[18:16] <melow01> I'd like to apt-get open office. Is there a terminal command to check the size of the package before I download and install it?
[18:16] <EliasAmaral> enrico_, don't be sorry, you can :) (but this channel is english-only)
[18:16] <huey23> EliasAmaral:  i do not have an xorg.conf file

[18:17] <EliasAmaral> huey23, you could generate one, but i think you don't need. the system - preferences - display don't help you?
[18:17] <melow01> llutz, thanks but won't that install the whole package for me?
[18:17] <g0th> It works with my old kernel (I compiled it myself)
[18:17] <llutz> melow01: -s = simulate
[18:17] <Myrtti> melow01: aptitude show <package> tells you the size after it's being installed and the download size too
[18:17] <melow01> llutz, ahhh... ok

[18:34] <mallory> hi everyone. i am new to linux and to irc. i just put UNR on my netbook.
[18:35] <Myrtti> troy_: have you set the charset of the document correctly? Ubuntu uses UTF8 by default
[18:35] <g0th> anyone?
[18:35] <troy_> iso-8859-9+
[18:35] <g0th> I guess I have to go back to my own kernel 2.6.27
[18:35] <g0th> but it is messung up my whole system :(
[18:36] <troy_> Well how do I change the character set ubuntu
[18:36] <Myrtti> troy_: try changing that to UTF-8 and check if it still is a problem.
[18:36] <g0th> I have no more time, bye
[18:36] <Pelo> do we know an app that will tell what app is using how much internet traffic ?
[18:36] <llutz> lekefly: type that command into terminal and look at output. pick what you like
[18:36] <troy_> Well how do I change the character set ubuntu?
[18:36] <Myrtti> troy_: trust me, it's easier and faster for you to change the charset in that one document, than to change the charset of your ubuntu.
[18:37] <Pelo> troy_, right click the desktop ,   chanage background,   last tab I beleive
[18:37] <jpds> Pelo: Visual effects, woo.
[18:37] <Pelo> troy_, forget what I said, I thoguht you meant change the font in ubuntu
[18:37] <Pelo> jpds, one before last then,   I made a mistake
[18:37] <ohir> troy_: ubuntu uses utf, utf supports all known languages and glyphs
[18:38] <harjot__> how would i restart my microphone driver

[18:38] <ohir> troy_ just some rare languges need additional fonts
[18:38] <troy_> ok
[18:38] <troy_> thanks
[18:38] <troy_> Thank you for your help your
[18:38] <Pelo> troy_, you can add support for other languaged from the localisation applet,  that would probably take care of your problem
[18:38] <calrik> rsync how do you specify the remote source?
[18:39] <troy_> best of this document should I change my character :)
[18:39] <harjot__> how would i restart my microphone?
[18:39] <llutz> calrik: default answer: man rsync
[18:39] <Pelo> harjot__, reload the module ?
[18:39] <zilkomaa> ..
[18:39] <harjot__> i dont know which one it is
[18:39] <SPhcT> can somone help me with webcam drivers.. i need install them right
[18:39] <harjot__> it would be easier to restart the ssound system?
[18:40] <Pelo> calrik, this might help https://help.ubuntu.com/community/rsync
[18:40] <jellow> harjot__: sudo /etc/init.d/alsasound restart
[18:40] <troy_> pelo problem is not Turkish, I am doing with php gphpedit program I am running a website. Characters as iso-8859-9 I have been trying to tell him.
[18:40] <harjot__> ok
[18:40] <jellow> harjot__: thats no specific to your microphone though
[18:40] <calrik> Pelo: yer Im reading that do I have to mount the network share?
[18:40] <Pelo> troy_, ok, not quite my feild then
[18:40]  * LAntia je re
[18:41] <harjot__> what could hwelp me for my mic then?
[18:41] <calrik> Pelo: in order to mount the network share does that mean I have to install NFS?
[18:41] <llutz> calrik: no, just use ssh
[18:41] <Pelo> calrik, nfs or samba , those are the usual
[18:41] <Pelo> calrik, ssh will work to
[18:41] <calrik> ok sweet I get ssh install I will use that
[18:41] <llutz> calrik: rsync -aux / user@host:/mnt/new/
[18:42] <Pelo> calrik, if you do ssh you'll probably have to setup some key if you want to automate rsync
[18:42] <Myrtti> troy_: if the document is set as UTF8, and you see the characters wrong, then the problem is in your browser
[18:42] <Myrtti> oh well.
[18:43] <peruna1> =-O Got rid of pulseaudio
[18:43] <peruna1> what now

[18:52] <calrik> omg rsync is alot faster :)
[18:52] <calrik> thanks
[18:53] <Pici> ben_: If you installed Ubuntu, then gdm is already installed.  What are you trying to do?
[18:53] <SPhcT> i think that i have drivers for my webcam but there is only source code and i need finish it i dont now how to do all that comands and how to put ewerthing together... my webcam is buld in laptop screen
[18:53] <ben_> change the slpash screen
[18:53] <Pici> SPhcT: there should be a README or INSTALL File that came with that code, read that first.
[18:54] <SPhcT> pici readmi is bad for me
[18:54] <Pici> ben_: The splash screen or the login screen?
[18:54] <Pici> SPhcT: What?
[18:54] <ben_> splash
[18:54] <SPhcT> Pici, it is hard to understand because i never did anything like that

[18:55] <webbb82> ok i want to dual boot windows 7 and ubuntu , i already shrunk my windows partition in half , now i have 250 gb of unalocated hard drive space, but when i put the install cd in and get to the partition section i dont get any option to install to unused diskspace, how do i install it to the unalocated space????
[18:55] <Pici> ben_: It looks like someone suggested installing gnome-splashscreen-manager, did you try to use the software-center to install that?
[18:55] <webbb82> i just remembered i have ubuntu install via wubi would that cause it to do that
[18:55] <SPhcT> Pici, i can give adress where u can get files and see ur self readme and say me what to do..
[18:55] <mezquitale> anyone here encrypts their hard drive?  I want to encrypt my secondary hard drive and am wondering how much of a performance hit I would get on a laptop, I have a Pentium M with 2 gigs ofmemory.
[18:55] <Pici> webbb82: Yes. Wubi installs Ubuntu to a file inside your windows partition.
[18:55] <Jason1> Does anyone know-  is there a open source media player, that supports changing between multiple playlists?

[18:56] <_Tristan> Hello. I have two partitions of the same distro on my computer. On one gtk can't find any engines, on the other it can. I want to solve this by copying over files/folders from the good partition. What should I copy over?
[18:57] <mezquitale> hwilde, in karmic it's possible to have "/home" encrypted in its own partition and then just have "/" in another partition so that appz will run fast, right?
[18:57] <hwilde> mezquitale, yes I believe you encrypt any partition you want
[18:58] <mezquitale> piero, you can talk about that in the #offtopic-channel or you can ask again and hopefully someone that knows the answer will reply, if you see no reply try at another time
[18:58] <webbb82> when i goto install ubuntu to the unallocated space it says i cant because i already have too many main partitions but the only ones i have are the windows 7 one and the backup partition can anyone please help a noob?
[18:59] <mezquitale> _Tristan, so you basically want to copy your config from the hard partition that is working fine to the partition that is having issues??
[18:59] <_Tristan> mezquitale: not just the config, but everything gtk-related (just the config didn't work)
[18:59] <panfist_> i installed ubuntu on a machine, which initially didn't work, I had to re-install grub on the boot drive. I then removed the cd drive physically from the host, and now all I see is "GRUB _", indefinitely, upon rebooting
[18:59] <K350> !flash
[19:00] <Jason1> linux media players that support switching between multiple playlists-  anyone know? windows refugee here- srry if stupid question.
[19:00] <mezquitale> webbb82, most likely you have more than one primary partition due to windows 7 install, use paste bin WARNING: use paste bin or you will be booted, use paste bin and show us the output of "sudo fdisk -l"
[19:00] <hwilde> Jason1, totem, rhythmbox, vlc, all have playlists
[19:00] <webbb82> im running windows 7 at the moment
[19:01] <webbb82> if i del the hp recovery partition would that fix it.,  i dont need it because i got the cd from the factory to restore so
[19:01] <Jason1> Thanks hwilde
[19:01] <mezquitale> _Tristan, it's not as easy as you make it sound, if you wanted an actual copy you could use gparted to make an exact copy of your partition and copy it to your other partition, what youre attempting to do is not reasonable, youre trying to perform a magic trick
[19:01] <blakkheim> Jason1: mpd , ncmpcpp
[19:01] <SPhcT> Pici, http://paste.ubuntu.com/369039/
[19:02] <pdg1> is there any way to auto add a filesystem to fstab?
[19:02] <blakkheim> pdg1: sudo vi /etc/fstab
[19:02] <_Tristan> mezquitale: well, the other option is to reinstall ubuntu
[19:03] <Jason1> thanks blakkheim.
[19:03] <mezquitale> webbb82, your problem is that you have about 4 extended partitions.  Yes, deleting the backup partition could help, it all depends on the location of the backup partition.  What you want to do is delete a partition, then free up some space on your hard drive, then create an extended partition
[19:03] <Pici> SPhcT: That is what the readme file looks like?
[19:03] <hwilde> _Tristan, what do u want to do?  sorry I missed the original
[19:03] <djtuxy> Hello
[19:03] <mezquitale> webbb82, my apologies, i wanted to say your problem is that you ahve more than 4 PRIMARY partitions
[19:03] <pdg1> blackkheim, that only opens it in a different editor. I'm looking to do the not so very manual way. if there is such a thing
[19:03] <SPhcT> Pici, no thats are likts to files what i have
[19:04] <webbb82> mezquitale: i did that last night i shrank my main partition in half so i now have 250 gb of unalocated disk space
[19:04] <Jason1> I'm trying to configure a remote,  to switch between playlists-  kinda like channels on a TV.  any thoughts on the best media player to start with?
[19:04] <pdg1> blakkheim, , that only opens it in a different editor. I'm looking to do the not so very manual way. if there is such a thing
[19:04] <blip-> hi, I just upgraded to xubuntu 9.10.   When I have xfce4-power-manager running, it makes the laptop brightness go up and down in steps of 2..... such that I only have 3 brightness settings.     If I kill the xfce power manager then the brightness controls are back to normal (but of course no OSD).   any ideas why this happens ?    gnome-power-manager doesn't have this problem
[19:04] <_Tristan> hwilde: I want to copy everything gtk-related from one partition to another because gtk can't find its engines on this partition
[19:04] <blakkheim> pdg1: it would be good to learn how to add things to it
[19:04] <mezquitale> webbb82, now create an extended partition and allocate the 250 gigs to the extended partition
[19:04] <SPhcT> Pici, so you can get them and see readme and all other stuff what is there
[19:05] <webbb82> i cant it says i already have 4 primary partitions
[19:05] <webbb82> the hp recovery partition is set as primary
[19:05] <SPhcT> Pici, i just paste 1st file readme begining because it asks to downloud sonthing..
[19:05] <djtuxy> i have a problem :S i want to know  if UNR supports rtl8187 because i want to install UNR but i don't have acces to internet by adsl
[19:06] <nytek_> djtuxy: what kind of netbook do you have?
[19:06] <djtuxy> an msi wind
[19:06] <pdg1> blakkheim, alright... I suppose I am looking for a lazy mans route. I know I've done it a few times before, I just find it a pain in the but everytime I install a new system and end up having to edit fstab for each machine
[19:06] <mezquitale> webbb82, that is OK, you can have up to 4 primary partitions but youre not allowed to have more partitions after that, you can have 3 primary partitions and an extended partition, the extended partition should allow you to create more than 4 partitions
[19:06] <djtuxy> msi u100
[19:06] <nytek_> djtuxy: you should consider just regular desktop 9.10
[19:06] <nytek_> djtuxy: it runs beautiful on my netbook
[19:07] <webbb82> so should i just del the hp_tools partition and recovery D: partition?
[19:07] <Jason1> thanks for leads guys-  have a great day.
[19:07] <nytek_> webbb82: do you have to?
[19:07] <webbb82> no but i dunno what els todo
[19:07] <hwilde> webbb82, you should stop immediately and make a complete image of your harddrive before you go any further.
[19:07] <Pelo> webbb82, do not delete the recovery partitons unless you never ever ever intend to restore your system to it's factory settngs
[19:07] <djtuxy> nytek_ yes i have it but, i cant install my wireless adapter because i have to do an update of the drivers and i can't connect by adsl :S
[19:07] <mezquitale> webbb82, i cant say unless i knew what your hard drive looked it, apparently running "sudo fdisk -l" would show us how you have your hard drive partitioned, use paste bin
[19:08] <nytek_> webbb82: it doesnt matter if you have them or not, because most os's have all the drivers anyways. especially the ones you need
[19:08] <webbb82> i got the recovery cd from the factory so no matter what i can reinstall windows 7
[19:08] <Pici> SPhcT: So what step are you stuck on?
[19:08] <ben_> thanx got it done
[19:08] <nytek_> djtuxy: can you get to a eth port?
[19:08] <manueljordison__> hi
[19:08] <SPhcT> Pici, i have both rars extracted in download folder
[19:09] <mezquitale> hwilde, he doesnt need an image of the hard drive, all he needs to do is first allocate space and then create an extended partition on the allocated space
[19:09] <djtuxy> nytek_ i cant.. i only have wifi =S
[19:09] <webbb82> how do i create a extended partition
[19:10] <mezquitale> i already told you
[19:10] <hwilde> mezquitale, he needs to backup his harddrive ASAP.
[19:10] <hwilde> he doesn't know what he's doing and he's about to break stuff
[19:10] <Pici> SPhcT: while inside the gspcav2 folder, cp *.c *.h Makefile Kconfig   into the other extracted folder.
[19:10] <hwilde> mitigate the worst case scenario
[19:11] <jtholmes> broadcom wireless card bcm4318 chip can scan, driver b43-fwcutter loads and all iwlist wlan2 scan returns 4 routers but card will not pull a dhcp address any ideas?
[19:11] <djtuxy> nytek_ because i'm not in my network of wifi.. is a free network here , so i'm not near the router
[19:11] <mezquitale> hwilde, only his data, has has recovery CD's from the manufacturer, those recovery CD's allow you to install the operating system along with software applications and drivers that are bundled with the system he bought
[19:11] <webbb82> i have the recovery cds from the factory so if all els fails i can get it back
[19:11] <SPhcT> Pici, how to put it in other folder?
[19:11] <quarkup> hey. anyone putadas do Movimento Humanismo e Democracia (Maria do Rosário Carneiro e Teresa Venda) votaram a favor e três deputados do PSD abstiveram-se.using celestia + addons?
[19:11] <quarkup> omg
[19:11] <hwilde> webbb82, mezquitale,  make a backup.
[19:11] <quarkup> sorry
[19:12] <quarkup> wrong copy paste
[19:12] <quarkup> anyone is there using celestia + addons ?
[19:12] <Pici> SPhcT: Do you know how to use the terminal?
[19:12] <mezquitale> LoL
[19:12] <webbb82> i have a backup on my external hard drive
[19:12] <mezquitale> !anyone | quarkup
[19:12] <SPhcT> Pici, im new user..
[19:12] <hwilde> Pici, any idea why talk doesn't work anymore?  Error on read for talk daemon connection refused etc
[19:13] <SPhcT> Pici, i now sothing but not much..
[19:13] <djtuxy> nytek_ are you there?
[19:13] <llcoolhodge> i am new to ubuntu
[19:13] <Pici> hwilde: You need talkd installed.
[19:13] <quarkup> I want to know if it is possible to use celestia + the educational addons under linux
[19:13] <llcoolhodge> and my audio stopped working
[19:13] <iWolf> llcoolhodge: Welcome
[19:13] <llcoolhodge> thanks iwolf
[19:13] <quarkup> if anyone has tweaked those addons or something.
[19:13] <hwilde> Pici, I did that
[19:13] <iWolf> llcoolhodge: I remember I solved some bugs about this
[19:14] <webbb82> if i right click on the unallocated disk space it says create new simple volume, is that the same
[19:14] <Pici> SPhcT: Do you know where the other folder is located?
[19:14] <iWolf> llcoolhodge: I'll dig them up
[19:14] <hwilde> Pici, it doesn't seem to run the talk daemon
[19:14] <iWolf> llcoolhodge: Please hold :)
[19:14] <llcoolhodge> thanks iwolf
[19:14] <Pici> hwilde: I'm not sure then, I havent used talk in ages.
[19:14] <llcoolhodge> i can hold
[19:14] <SPhcT> Pici, yes almoust same dir
[19:14] <christof> hello
[19:15] <iWolf> llcoolhodge: Found one
[19:15] <SetiAmon> hey how everyone
[19:15] <christof> i need some help
[19:15] <christof> i have 2 pc's running karmic.need some help to configure networking.anyone can please help?
[19:15] <iWolf> llcoolhodge: 9.10?
[19:15] <llcoolhodge> yesh iwolf
[19:15] <Pici> SPhcT: While you are inside the gspcav2 dir, you need to run cp *.c *.h Makefile Kconfig /path/to/the/other/dir    I can't know where that is on your computer.
[19:15] <SetiAmon> hey is there anyway to EASILY recover deleted files,like a program you would have for windows,but linux of course.or is it all archiac command line programs
[19:15] <iWolf> llcoolhodge: Open a terminal
[19:15] <quarkup> i want celestia addons working under linux. how is that possible ?
[19:15] <llcoolhodge> to be honest
[19:16] <webbb82> ok im at the extended volume wizard that should make the unallocated volume a partition for installing ubuntu onto?
[19:16] <llcoolhodge> i dont knw anything
[19:16] <iWolf> llcoolhodge: Ok
[19:16] <SetiAmon> basically I am looking for a Graphical file recovery tool for linux
[19:16] <bullgard4> Karmic does not produce X on my tty7. After 'sudo service gdm stop' and 'sudo service gdm start' and allowing ubuntu-client-applet access to keyring I have a black screen. No keyboard echos. But in the upper right: "detlef@T43:~$'followed by ablinking cursor. How to fix this?
[19:16] <quarkup> because some work others do not
[19:16] <iWolf> llcoolhodge: Goto: Applications > Accessories > Terminal
[19:16] <llcoolhodge> what is a terminal iwolf
[19:16] <llcoolhodge> got it
[19:16] <iWolf> llcoolhodge: Then, type in the following: sudo update-grub
[19:16] <SPhcT> Pici, done
[19:16] <iWolf> llcoolhodge: After that, please reboot and see what happens
[19:16] <djtuxy> nytek_ well thanks man :) i'm going to install and then i'm going to see what can i do
[19:16] <Pici> SPhcT: Now cd into the directory
[19:17] <iWolf> llcoolhodge: If it STILL does not work, please PM me or ask again
[19:17] <zig_> Will Linux/Ubuntu have a ReadyBoost equivelant any time soon?
[19:17] <christof> i want to share my internet connection between two ubuntu pc's.both got karmic and one of them has 2 network cards.can anyone help with the config?please
[19:17] <Pici> SPhcT: run sudo apt-get install build-essential    and then    make
[19:17] <llutz> !ics > christof
[19:18] <SPhcT> Pici, make says no targets. stop
[19:18] <zig_> I've been reading some articles on readyboost, and it is clear to me that none of them are on the right track. mkswap <thumbdrive> && swapon <thumbdrive> is _not_ ReadyBoost-equivelant
[19:18] <mezquitale> christof, i would use a router, it's easier plus the fact that some ISP's dont like you using ICS, they would rather you use a router
[19:18] <Pici> SPhcT: I don't know then, that is what thos instructions say to do.
[19:18] <christof> yeah,cant afford one this month
[19:18] <zig_> Additionally, most the articles that I read direct one to set the priority to the max, which also doesn't make sense to me. It would make more sense to set the swap files as the same priority to effect striping... maybe. But using a thumbdrive as swap is _not_ fast
[19:19] <christof> my bro (2nd pc) just switched to ubuntu
[19:19] <zig_> It has significantly slower throughput than a HDD. It's only useful for filecache
[19:19] <llutz> mezquitale: where do you see a difference from ISP-view between using ICS and using a router?
[19:19] <christof> before i was using his pc as a gateway(internet from his PC--win7)
[19:19] <zig_> That's what ReadyBoost is. It just uses your thumbdrive as a filecache _only_ for small files
[19:19] <christof> is it possible to do same i ubuntu?
[19:19] <zig_> Anyway. I was wondering if Linux will have something like this anytime soon.
[19:19] <llutz> mezquitale: if they don't allow ics, they don't allow router-usage too
[19:20] <SPhcT> Pici, make in directory where i copy  files?
[19:20] <axisys> why does the sound come from external speaker and the plugg'd in mic ? shouldn't the external speaker muted automatically as soon as I plug my headphones ?
[19:20] <Pici> SPhcT: wait, maybe I misread.
[19:20] <mezquitale> llutz, that was a bit ago actually but my ISP warned me about using ICS and they sent me a letter stating for me to get a router, never had a problem since
[19:20] <Pici> SPhcT: Please re-extract both tar.gzs and lets start over
[19:20] <llcoolhodge> iwolf
[19:20] <iWolf> Yes?
[19:20] <llcoolhodge> not shit happened
[19:21] <iWolf> You must reboot
[19:21] <mezquitale> llutz, i used to use internter connection sharing from windows back then though
[19:21] <llcoolhodge> i did reboot
[19:21] <iWolf> Alright, please hold
[19:21] <llcoolhodge> by reboot u mean restart right
[19:21] <SPhcT> Pici, done
[19:21] <llutz> mezquitale: don't know what win-ics does, but basically it's NAT like a router does
[19:21] <wasutton3> is there a way to log if a computer can access the internet or not?
[19:21] <KaffeeJunky123> I need help, my right alt key is supposed to be lvl3 modifier, but when I use my media keys it stops working and I have to reload the keyboard layout to get it to work again, i'm using a g15 on ubuntu 9.04
[19:21] <mezquitale> anyone here has done any encryption on their hard drive?   But I can't change the wireless on/off button (it turns bluetooth on/off instead of wifi). When I click a command in Keyboard Shortcuts then press that button, it doesn't get recorded, but all other buttons do. Any ideas?
[19:25] <iWolf> Answer it, then hit enter
[19:25] <Aethelred> llcoolhodge: is that a question?
[19:25] <wasutton3> llutz, does that create a timestamp with that?
[19:25] <llcoolhodge> is what a question
[19:25] <maco> llcoolhodge: it is quite possible you have hit a driver bug and simply need to file a bug and wait for it to be fixed
[19:25] <iWolf> maco: No
[19:25] <SPhcT> Pici, done
[19:25] <iWolf> maco: It's happened with SEVERAL other people
[19:25] <llutz> wasutton3: yes
[19:26] <llcoolhodge> it was working fine
[19:26] <iWolf> maco: I'm sure it would come up with a driver suggestion
[19:26] <maco> llcoolhodge: ok i missed the start of this. what happened?
[19:26] <llcoolhodge> and then i tried to watch some pron too and it cutout everything and i restarted the computer
[19:26] <Pici> SPhcT: now cd back into the gdspca-randomletters folder
[19:26] <iWolf> maco: No sound
[19:26] <maco> iWolf: that is meaningless
[19:26] <SPhcT> Pici, done
[19:26] <Pici> SPhcT: run make
[19:27] <maco> iWolf: could be muted, could be broken driver, could be the sound device hogged by another application
[19:27] <iWolf> maco: I'm sure it would alert you about a broken driver
[19:27] <SPhcT> Pici, works
[19:27] <llcoolhodge> the sound device at the time was hogged by another maco
[19:27] <maco> iWolf: just searching for "no sound" will get you 50-billion suggestions on ways to fix it and maybe one of them might work
[19:27] <Manii> Hi, is there a way to make a properly working session with gnome-shell?
[19:27] <llcoolhodge> i tried watching porn aswell as listening to Cher's believe
[19:27] <hwilde> !ot
[19:27] <maco> iWolf: since the driver issue would be specific to your motherboard and sound chip combination... not really
[19:28] <lekefly> Where do i setup thing to start at startup?
[19:28] <llcoolhodge> ny computer is sound
[19:28] <maco> llcoolhodge: keep it family friendly. ie. no porn
[19:28] <jrib> !startup | llcoolhodge
[19:28] <jrib> lekefly: sorry, that was for you above
[19:28] <lekefly> Thanks jrib
[19:28] <SPhcT> Pici, need some time still working...

[19:28] <llcoolhodge> so i told u
[19:28] <llcoolhodge> exactly
[19:28] <maco> llcoolhodge: cant you just say "a video"?
[19:28] <nefarious1> how's the new  gamers edition
[19:29] <maco> llcoolhodge: ok so you had a video program and a music player open?
[19:29] <llcoolhodge> this is 2010 i saw a 7 year old smoking a cigarette swearing at his mother
[19:29] <iWolf> llcoolhodge: What computer model are you using
[19:29] <hwilde> !ops
[19:29] <llcoolhodge> yes
[19:29] <llcoolhodge> and no
[19:29] <llcoolhodge> i had music player open
[19:29] <llcoolhodge> and internet
[19:29] <FloodBot2> llcoolhodge: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[19:29] <llcoolhodge> i dont download those videos
[19:29] <llcoolhodge> i stream them

[19:29] <llcoolhodge> rythembox
[19:30] <hwilde> llcoolhodge, did you reboot?
[19:30] <llcoolhodge> and sorry for the flooding or whatever
[19:30] <llcoolhodge> yesh i rebooted
[19:30] <hwilde> llcoolhodge, did your sound work after reboot
[19:30] <llcoolhodge> nope
[19:30] <iWolf> hwilde: No
[19:30] <hwilde> llcoolhodge, your speakers are broken, try headphones
[19:30] <Tex_D> anyone know how to convert .STJ in .avi file?
[19:30] <mculp> anyone point me in the direction of getting my laptop to work in clamshell mode? google'd to no avail
[19:30] <llcoolhodge> my speakers are a 600 dollar soundsytem
[19:30] <llcoolhodge> sound system
[19:31] <SPhcT> Pici, done
[19:31] <llcoolhodge> they are not broken
[19:31] <hwilde> mculp, what is clamshell
[19:31] <Fishscene> coolhodge: A bot automatically responded to the flood. To avoid future complications, try typing as much as you can into one text line.
[19:31] <iWolf> llcoolhodge: drivers then
[19:31] <maco> llcoolhodge: did you hear the login sound at boot?
[19:31] <SPhcT> pici get some erors
[19:31] <llcoolhodge> no login sound
[19:31] <maco> iWolf: if it worked before the drivers are fine
[19:31] <Pici> SPhcT: Can you pastebin them?
[19:31] <maco> llcoolhodge: unless.... did you by any chance just upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10 ?
[19:31] <iWolf> maco: Didn't catch that
[19:31] <llcoolhodge> no
[19:31] <mculp> hwilde: laptop closed, external monitor on - but I just got it to work, thanks anyway

[19:35] <emghazal> My HP laptop has some extra buttons (mute, volume up/down, play/pause, stop, wireless on/off, etc), they can be changed from System->Preferences->Keyboard shortcuts (they have names like "XF86AudioMute"). But I can't change the wireless on/off button (it turns bluetooth on/off instead of wifi). When I click an action in Keyboard Shortcuts then press the wireless button, it doesn't get recorded, but all other buttons do. Any ideas?

[19:42] <razla> Hi! Since a week or so, when I turn my volume (alsa) up to 'loud-ish', the whole sound output starts to stutter. I really don't know where to look for errors or how to see what's going on (nothing relevant in dmesg), could anyone point me in the right direction? There is also some noise in the background when playing not so loud music... Using ubuntu-current (desktop) pretty much
[19:44] <Fishscene> razla: For noise in the background - it sounds like a grounding issue.
[19:44] <razla> Wow, after hours and hours of research I ask in the channel. And within 1 minute I find out what the problem is (front mic boost not muted).  Thanks anyway!
[19:44] <Fishscene> rofl.
[19:44] <razla> wish I'd have asked days ago ;)
[19:44] <bambam_> lucky you razla... I have not got my answers
[19:44] <_UsUrPeR_> hey all

[19:46] <bambam_> how do I get internet services working on ubuntu 9.10
[19:46] <bombel> (Ubuntu 9.10) Can someone help me solving my sound problem? When I launch a game, the sound seems to be ok, but suddenly I start to hear a crackling noise superpositioned with the supposed sound. Sometimes the crackling sound disappears and then comes back after some seconds. Depending on the game this game be better or worse.. What files do I need to show you, in order to let you know more about the my
[19:46] <razla> Myrtti: hehehe, yep! lucky me :)

[19:47] <Slart> jack5463: open a terminal and run pkill firefox
[19:47] <orudie> can someone recommend a nice program for email campaigns / newsletters
[19:47] <bambam_> yeah
[19:47] <emghazal> My HP laptop has some extra buttons (mute, volume up/down, play/pause, stop, wireless on/off, etc), they can be changed from System->Preferences->Keyboard shortcuts (they have names like "XF86AudioMute").

When I click an action in Keyboard Shortcuts then press the wireless button, it doesn't get recorded, but all other buttons do. Any ideas?
[19:47] <Slart> jack5463: if it still doesn't close try "pkill -9 firefox"
[19:47] <bambam_> kill -9 pid of firefox
[19:47] <bombel> Btw, I have no problems with sound while listening to music or movies or anything else but games...
[19:47] <mezquitale> bombel, that sounds like a bug, you should seriously file a bug report in launchpad or search launchpad for a bug similar to yours
[19:47] <_UsUrPeR_> christof: after that, do the following as root: iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -j MASQUERADE
[19:47] <jack5463> Slart, thanks
[19:47] <Slart> jack5463: you're welcome
[19:47] <NET||abuse> bombel, your problem is pulse audio
[19:48] <krysis> Does anyone know how to verify a package is installed via source?
[19:48] <bambam_> Slart; can you help on connectivity issues
[19:48] <mezquitale> bombel, the problem could be related to the game you use and a library, what game are you experiencing this issue with?
[19:48] <NET||abuse> bombel, i've hit that problem too, i wanted to play a little Glest, but it blows up after about 30 seconds of plyaing the music
[19:48] <Slart> bambam_: nope.. internet usually works out of the box for me
[19:48] <Na2Th> \h
[19:48] <bambam_> damnnn
[19:48] <christof> _UsUrPeR_>done that
[19:49] <christof> other pc cant connect to any network
[19:49] <bambam_> it never worked for me out of box
[19:49] <bombel> I tried many different games, from deb-games. All of them show the same problem
[19:49] <christof> is there anything i need to configure on it?
[19:49] <bambam_> especially with 9.x releases
[19:49] <bombel> Should I do something with this pulseaudio ?
[19:49] <panfist_> what do i do if the gnome display preferences window is missing resolution modes that i know my monitor supports?
[19:49] <_UsUrPeR_> christof: are they on the same subnet? are you providing DHCP? what is the gateway set for ETH0 on your "internal" client computer?
[19:49] <jrib> !fixres | panfist_
[19:50] <christof> _UsUrPeR_>how do i check that?sorry but i am new to networking
[19:50] <_UsUrPeR_> christof: also, on client computer, make sure resolv.conf reflects your proper dns server
[19:50] <googleit> can anyone help with alsa issues
[19:50] <christof> okay.if i give you remote access to my PC can you fix it?
[19:50] <googleit> cuz no on is on the alsa channel;
[19:50] <mezquitale> bombel, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/345627?comments=all
[19:50] <_UsUrPeR_> christof: in /etc/network/interfaces, set "gateway xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" where gateway = ETH1 on your server computer
[19:50] <_UsUrPeR_> ifdown, ifup eth0 on client computer
[19:50] <_UsUrPeR_> try again
[19:51] <mezquitale> bombel, you can also try removing pulse audio but that's going to open another tape of worms
[19:51] <_UsUrPeR_> ok, so nobody in here familiar with IP tunneling vnc/starting VNC server on a remote server?
[19:51]  * _UsUrPeR_ scans the room
[19:51] <krysis> anyone know how to verify if i installed a source correctly?
[19:51] <ikonia> _UsUrPeR_: why don't you ask the real question
[19:51] <ikonia> krysis: installed a source ?
[19:51] <krysis> installed from source*
[19:51] <krysis> libdrm
[19:51] <hipe> sorry to ask a noob q. but i'm gonna need some help learning how to help myself w/ my new vps acct and 'karmic'.  If i just did 'apt-get install ruby19' where did it go?
[19:51] <bombel> mezquitale, can i remove temporarily the pulseaudio, just for test purpose ?
[19:51] <krysis> and others
[19:51] <christof> its all set to dhcp on both pc.s
[19:51] <ikonia> krysis: if it built without error - it's built
[19:51] <mezquitale> usurper, sounds like your config is not correctly set up
[19:52] <ikonia> hipe: distributed across the file system, binaries in /bin, config /etc - lookup linux fhs for more info
[19:52] <mezquitale> bombel, nope, once it's uninstalled it's gone for good, you can reinstall it again though and alsa should still work but it'll do funky things if youre on a laptop
[19:52] <krysis> ikonia: ok thank you, im trying to install a intel driver from intellinuxgraphics.org but im running into difficulties
[19:52] <christof> _UsUrPeR_>i can give you remote access if you can fix this.please,id be thankfull for the rest of my life
[19:52] <ikonia> krysis: why ? what's wrong with the intel drive shipped by ubuntu for xorg ?
[19:52] <ikonia> christof: what's the problem?
[19:52] <bombel> is pulse audion actually needed? for what ?
[19:53] <Yaroze> anyone know how to enable TRIM on an intel ssd device with ub 9.10 and ext4 ?
[19:53] <_UsUrPeR_> christof: ? nono. it's alright. pastebin your /etc/networking/interfaces file from your client computer, along with an ifconfig from both client and server.
[19:53] <christof> i have 2 pc's running karmic.1 has 2 network cards and internet access.other one im trying to get to share internet with first
[19:53] <krysis> as compared with Sabayan linux, ubuntu driver doesn't render correctly, while using Nexuiz on Sabaya the graphics render correctly but lag (due to hardware limitations) but on ubuntu the driver doesnt render anything right, ceilings and floors missing, guns, characters, etc
[19:53] <ikonia> Yaroze: hdparm may work
[19:53] <krysis> ikonia: as compared with Sabayan linux, ubuntu driver doesn't render correctly, while using Nexuiz on Sabaya the graphics render correctly but lag (due to hardware limitations) but on ubuntu the driver doesnt render anything right, ceilings and floors missing, guns, characters, etc
[19:53] <usuario> arluque
[19:54] <mezquitale> bombel, it looks like my comment is not entirely correct, you can disable pulse audio although I have never tried it:  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio
[19:54] <ikonia> krysis: how have you verified xorg is using the intel driver ?
[19:54] <_UsUrPeR_> ok, well I have installed X11vnc on the remote server I would like to connect to. I have access to the server via SSH, and I would like to start x11vnc server on the remote computer, and access a desktop session remotely.
[19:54] <hipe> ikonia: ah thanks.  that's where i thought it would go but it was not in my path after that install. apparently i needed 'ruby' too.  ;) got it thx
[19:54] <llutz> _UsUrPeR_:asuming vncserver runs at host:5901 "ssh -L 5901:<IP_ADDRESS>:5901 -f -N -l user host"  "vncclient localhost:5901"
[19:54] <krysis> ikonia: the new one i compiled? im not sure how to verify this
[19:54] <_UsUrPeR_> llutz: lemme try that. thank you
[19:54] <ikonia> krysis: no - how do you know the driver that is not working as you expect is the intel one ?
[19:55] <ZykoticK9> bombel, don't know if it will work - but worth a try --- to disable Pulse for testing try using "pasuspender $NAME_OF_APPLICATION"
[19:55] <bombel> gonna try all that now
[19:55] <christof> _UsUrPeR_>the PC that got internet says im connected to both networks,but the other one isnt finding anything
[19:56] <krysis> intel just recently released public open source drivers, im quite certain ubuntu hasn't integrated them yet, so im trying to compile from scratch. whatever graphics im using with ubuntu isn't working right, if its not intel then im not sure how to install the ubuntu intel graphics if it hasn't been posted in the restricted hardware section ikonia
[19:56] <christof> auto lo
[19:56] <christof> iface lo inet loopback (/etc/network/interfaces)
[19:56] <_UsUrPeR_> christof: pastebin ifconfig of both your server, your client, and /etc/network/interfaces
[19:56] <_UsUrPeR_> don't put all that in here. it'll probably get you kicked...
[19:56] <_UsUrPeR_> christof: http://pastebin.com
[19:57] <christof> ty
[19:57] <ikonia> krysis: I'll ask again - how do you know you're using an "intel" driver (the one that's causing you a problem) the intel drivers ARE open source so they are already intergrated into ubuntu, and they won't show up in the restricted drivers tool because they are open source - not restricted
[19:57] <krysis> well I assume im not using them because the graphics aren't being generated correctly ikonia, and in past Ubuntu version i had to take my card out of Blacklist to use compiz
[19:58] <amirite> hey, I'm a total noob to ubuntu but not to linux -- how do I search available packages with apt-get?
[19:58] <jrib> !apt | amirite
[19:58] <christof> hmm,what is pastebin
[19:58] <llutz> amirite: apt-cache search
[19:58] <ikonia> krysis: not all intel cards are fully functional, but that said most should work fine. What video card do you actually have
[19:58] <hobokie> Hi - I download Ubuntu from here - (http://www.ubuntu.com/GetUbuntu/download) - When I finished installing I had over 200 updates to download and install - I would like know if there is a site I can go to that has the most current version ? ? ?
[19:58] <rotmor> hi, what does this sed command exactly do: http://pastebin.com/m12c26eae ?
[19:58] <amirite> thanks llutz
[19:58] <ikonia> hobokie: that is the most current version
[19:59] <krysis> ikonia: Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller   but if all intel graphics arent right then why does Sabayan linux work flawlessly with my card?
[19:59] <ikonia> krysis: maybe because you're not using the intel driver included in xorg, you're using one of the 3 that will work
[19:59] <hobokie> ikonia: So it's just install and do updates ?
[19:59] <actionparsnip> Yo yo yo
[19:59] <tennessean> hobokie: it basically does sudo apt-get dist-upgrade for you as update-manager
[19:59] <ikonia> hobokie: yup
[19:59] <daftykins> rotmor: swaps the localhost IP <IP_ADDRESS> with nothing, then i'm not sure what the 'g' does.
[19:59] <Danbo19> Hello, I am trying to sync my ipod nano using itunes in virtualbox. I have sucsessfully set up windows in virtualbox, my question is: where do I put my music so I can access it in the virtual machine?
[19:59] <krysis> so how can i edit xorg in 9.10 as the xorg.conf is gone?
[20:00] <ikonia> krysis: /etc/X11/xorg.conf is gone, but you can put one there to hard code options, it's not there as it's supposed to be dynamic, but it doesn't always get it right
[20:00] <actionparsnip> Danbo19: the latest wine and latest itunes work together enough to transfer somgs
[20:00] <Trek> ikonia, is an op around in #ubuntu-ops at all?
[20:00] <llutz> rotmor: deletes all <IP_ADDRESS> from that file
[20:00] <jamesd_> Danbo19, you can setup a share in virtualbox or use samba on ubuntu
[20:00] <ikonia> Trek: sure, one moment
[20:00] <hobokie> ikonia: Ok - No biggie have very fast connection anyway - Just like life simple as possible :)
[20:00] <rotmor> llutz: thanks
[20:00] <Danbo19> really? I was unaware itunes works in wine now
[20:01] <Danbo19> that sound easier than virtualbox
[20:01] <rotmor> daftykins: thanks too
[20:01] <actionparsnip> Danbo: if you wanna use virtualbox to use itunes you should ask in ##windows as itunes isn't supported here
[20:01] <daftykins> rotmor: np :)
[20:01] <hobokie> ikonia: By the way Thank You
[20:01] <panfist_> is it possible to, using apt or dpkg on an offline host, to select some packages for download and make a list of all those packges and dependencies,
[20:01] <Danbo19> oh, okay well thanks
[20:01] <panfist_> then to download all the packages on taht list and provide them to the offline host?
[20:01] <krysis> ikonia: ok i see, but i don't know what driver i am using currently, nor do i know how to edit the xorg.conf to switch the driver
[20:01] <ZykoticK9> panfist_, look into apt-on-cd
[20:01] <_UsUrPeR_> christof: pastebin is a web site where you can copy-paste lots of information for other people to look at. You submit all the stuff I asked you to give me, and give me the link to the site
[20:02] <mezquitale> Danbo19, I dont know how the access is done with iTunes meaning I dont know where the data needs to be stored but if you have files in your ubuntu hard drive then you can access it in your virtual machine, install guest additions first though
[20:02] <panfist_> ok
[20:02] <actionparsnip> Danbo19: check the appdb dude, silver rating now (I don't use apple's garbage so haven't personally tested)
[20:02] <ikonia> krysis: set the driver to "intel", look at an example xorg and take the video device section as an example
[20:02] <krysis> ikonia:  if i take a look at xorg.conf from sabayan could i potentiall find out what to edit for my driver to work? or does xorg depend on distro?
[20:02] <christof> thank you
[20:02] <Danbo19> appdb?
[20:02] <actionparsnip> !appdb | danbo19
[20:02] <ikonia> krysis: that would be a fine example
[20:02] <protojay> type /nick encoded to do something amazing!
[20:02] <krysis> ikonia: ok thank you, i'll look into it
[20:02] <ikonia> krysis: more so if sabayan is working
[20:03] <ikonia> protojay: why ? what has that got do to with ubuntu ?
[20:03] <ikonia> krysis: shout if you have a problem
[20:03] <Danbo19> thanks for the help
[20:03] <mezquitale> Danbo19, is your device being detected in the virtual machine?
[20:03] <krysis> ikonia: yeah as far as i can tell whatever sabayan is using is running alot better than the ubuntu driver, i'll take a gander and report back if your still on
[20:04] <roof> hi all
[20:04] <Trek> anyone need help today?
[20:04] <Trek> !hi | roof
[20:04] <mezquitale> Trek, why yes, I am trying to figure out how to encrypt a secondary drive in my laptop
[20:05] <roof> who can help me ? i need some healp in FreeBSD
[20:05] <ikonia> roof: the guys in #freebsd can
[20:05] <emghazal> My HP laptop has some extra buttons (mute, volume up/down, play/pause, stop, wireless on/off, etc), they can be changed from System->Preferences->Keyboard shortcuts (they have names like "XF86AudioMute"). But I can't change the wireless on/off button (it turns bluetooth on/off instead of wifi). When I click an action in Keyboard Shortcuts then press the wireless button, it doesn't get recorded, but all other buttons do. Any ideas?
[20:05] <roof> thx
[20:05] <actionparsnip> Roof: bsd isn't supported here
[20:05] <roof> #freebsd
[20:05] <roof> ??
[20:05] <Myrtti> mezquitale: cryptsetup is nice
[20:05] <roof> i can;t
[20:05] <ikonia> roof: it's a channel, type /join #freebsd
[20:05] <Trek> roof: /join #freebsd
[20:05] <actionparsnip> !shortcut | emghazal
[20:05] <roof> thx
[20:05] <ionut> hi all.does anyone can tell me how can i create a script for ubuntu 9.10 that makes the updates automatically ?
[20:06] <Samuel-NotAFK> Where can I get a Webkit 1.1.20 package for Ubuntu Karmic?
[20:06] <Trek> ionut, the updates require admin password, and auto-update anyways, so why do you need a script?
[20:06] <Davedan> how can I check if my server is swapping?
[20:06] <ikonia> !info webkit
[20:06] <ikonia> Davedan: swapon -s
[20:06] <roof> u... i don't have invite in this #freebsd chenal*
[20:06] <jellow> ionut: add a script with sudo apt-get update && upgrade to /etc/cron.daily/
[20:06] <Trek> roof, one sec
[20:06] <actionparsnip> Ionut: make the script then cron the script to run when you wish (as root)
[20:06] <ikonia> roof: ##freebsd
[20:06] <bombel> argh.... i lost the sound at all
[20:06] <ionut> yes
[20:06] <mneptok> ionut: create a root cronjob that runs apt-get update/upgrade/dist-upgrade
[20:06] <ionut> actionparsnip: but how can i create that script
[20:07] <emghazal> actionparsnip: Thanks, I'll try that
[20:07] <roof> ok i wait
[20:07] <ionut> mneptok: i have no idea of how can i create that script
[20:07] <ikonia> roof: no - please join ##freebsd
[20:07] <actionparsnip> Ionut: its a text file with the top line: #!/bin/bash
[20:07] <roof> oh ok many thx
[20:07] <ikonia> ionut: read the script that mneptok has suggested
[20:07] <shacky> ubuntu-fr
[20:07] <macman_> question .. just installed 9.10 right and now i get a grub error
[20:07] <Trek> roof: it won't work
[20:07] <actionparsnip> Ionut: then the rest are just commands like you type in terminal
[20:07] <macman_> i did a grub find /boot/grub/stage1
[20:08] <Trek> roof: you'll need to register your nick first.  i just spoke to them
[20:08] <macman_> file not found .. what am i doing wrong ?
[20:08] <ionut> ikonia: what script ????
[20:08] <mneptok> ionut: there are tons of tutorials on the web about how to create shell scripts. take some time and read through a few.
[20:08] <ikonia> ubottu: you have to write it,
[20:08] <ikonia> oops
[20:08] <actionparsnip> Macman_: boot to livecd and reinstall grub
[20:08] <macman_> yea
[20:08] <ionut> mneptok: thx ,i'll do that
[20:08] <roof> ho ok.. how i can do this? (register my nick)
[20:08] <mezquitale> Myrtti, will I have to manually mount the encrypted drive with cryptsetup?
[20:08] <Trek> !register | roof
[20:08] <ikonia> !register | roof
[20:08] <macman_> do grub .. type in find /boot/grub/stage1 .. it didn't find it actionparsnip
[20:09] <actionparsnip> !register | roof
[20:09] <mneptok> ionut: you are automating complex functionality. just asking someone in an IRC channel how to do it is probably a Bad Idea. this is a case where you want to really understand what you're doing.
[20:09] <Davedan> ikonia: swapon -s says that 524428 is used out of 1048568
[20:09] <ikonia> Davedan: so that's what's used
[20:09] <roof> !register | roof
[20:09] <actionparsnip> Macman_: that's all I can advise. I have never had a grub issue
[20:09] <roof> i see
[20:10] <Myrtti> mezquitale: works well with fstab. i use it to encrypt my whole system with luks
[20:10] <ionut> mneptok: i wasn't asking the script, but just some ideas,any way.thx for all the help
[20:10] <Samuel-NotAFK> Where can I get a Webkit 1.1.20 package for Ubuntu Karmic?
[20:11] <bombel> Is there any possibility to have default configurations for sound ?
[20:11] <mneptok> Samuel-NotAFK: the webkit team has a PPA on Launchpad
[20:11] <actionparsnip> Samuel-NotAFK: websearch for ppa search
[20:11] <Samuel-NotAFK> mneptok: I don't think they offer a 1.1.20 package.
[20:11] <actionparsnip> Samuel-NotAFK: the top result will let you seach the launchpad ppas
[20:12] <DavidJHeinrich> hi all

[20:13] <Bigshot> after installing "new fonts" I only see "rectangle blocks" instead of "alphabetical characters" in "gdm" what should i do? how can i fix this fonts problem?
[20:13] <Andre_Re> mezquitale: what? sorry, i don't use linux very often
[20:14] <actionparsnip> Samuel-NotAFK: then you will need to compile or contact a ppa maintainer to see if they will do it for you
[20:14] <net> hello
[20:14] <mezquitale> Andre_Re, ok go ask in #ubuntustudio
[20:14] <Andre_Re> thx
[20:14] <DavidJHeinrich> Pici: my onboard audio doesn't work in 9.04, I was told to boot using Lucid LiveCD and report bug if still there
[20:14] <actionparsnip> Samuel-NotAFK: or see if you can find a deb file sitting someplace
[20:15] <ikonia> PeterT: I don't rate the technology/how it does it, a real install is works
[20:15] <PeterT> ok
[20:15] <Pici> maco: Which package should DavidJHeinrich file a bug against if his audio does not work in Lucid as well?
[20:15] <maco> Pici: linux
[20:15] <PeterT> It seems that my screen turns black and does nothing when I try to install Ubuntu from a CD Boot, ikonia, that's why I'm asking
[20:15] <maco> Pici: alsa doesnt recognize his sound card at all
[20:15] <ikonia> PeterT: what video card do you use ?
[20:16] <net> ss
[20:16] <maco> Pici: and alsa is in the kernel
[20:16] <Pici> DavidJHeinrich: Run ubuntu-bug linux and describe your problem.

[20:16] <PeterT> I'm not sure, ikonia
[20:16] <PeterT> I will look
[20:16] <PeterT> How do I check that on Windows, ikonia?
[20:16] <Bigshot> after installing "new fonts" I only see "rectangle blocks" instead of "alphabetical characters" in "gdm" what should i do? how can i fix this fonts problem?
[20:16] <ikonia> PeterT: join ##windows and ask for help
[20:16] <maco> DavidJHeinrich: "sound card not recognized by alsa" should be the basic description
[20:16] <zwakikushtia> i wana vedio and voice @ ubuntu 9.10

[20:18] <actionparsnip> Ivansmo: also add the medibuntu ppa and install codecs there
[20:18] <krysis> ikonia: yeah i figured, are those lines dependencies available in ubuntu or do i have to install something for them to work?
[20:18] <ikonia> Ox0000: it auto does that for you
[20:18] <DavidJHeinrich> maco: I was here earlier and was told it was a driver issue if I played with ALSA stuff, can hear feedback from talking into mic, but still can't record
[20:18] <ikonia> krysis: they should be fine
[20:18] <Bigshot> ikonia, buddy can you tell me how to fix my fonts problem?
[20:18] <VCoolio> ikonia: there is also a switch to install recommended packages too, what was that again
[20:18] <krysis> ikonia: thank you! i'll go ahead and edit my xorg.conf in ubuntu and see how that goes
[20:18] <PeterT> ikonia: Are you still there?

[20:22] <zwakikushtia> wine is not working in ubuntu
[20:22] <zwakikushtia> what is the process to run it
[20:22] <ikonia> !wine | zwakikushtia
[20:22] <Davedan> free shows me that I only have free 30MB memory out of 512MB. but top shows me that I have one process with 66% memory and the rest only 1%
[20:22] <jellow> zwakikushtia: wine
[20:22] <ikonia> Davedan: system cache allocation probably
[20:22] <zwakikushtia> yes i knopw
[20:23] <zwakikushtia> know
[20:23] <Davedan> ikonia: what does it means?
[20:23] <ikonia> zwakikushtia: ok - that's how you do it then
[20:23] <actionparsnip> Davidheinrich: mv /usr/bin/firefox /usr/bin/firefox_old; sudo ln -s /usr/bin/firefox-3.5 /usr/bin/firefox
[20:23] <DavidJHeinrich> does anyone know how to make Firefox 3.5 (Shiretoko) the default browser for apps?
[20:23] <zwakikushtia> but its not working
[20:23] <ikonia> Davedan: it means it's using ram to cache the file system
[20:23] <actionparsnip> Ikonia: bah :(
[20:23] <ikonia> zwakikushtia: whats the problem, as "not working" doesn't tell us antything
[20:23] <Davedan> ikonia: my SSH is not responding and support said that it might be because of swapping
[20:23] <ikonia> actionparsnip: ?
[20:23] <wasutton3> yep that was it, thanks all
[20:23] <jellow> zwakikushtia: how is not working ?
[20:23] <ikonia> Davedan: VERY doubtful
[20:23] <Davedan> ikonia: is there a way to verify why SSH is not working?
[20:23] <actionparsnip> Ikonia: thought it did
[20:23] <VCoolio> DavidJHeinrich: set it to be your default browser in system > prefs > preferred apps
[20:23] <Davedan> ikonia: what can cause it?
[20:23] <ikonia> actionparsnip: ahh
[20:23] <Davedan> ikonia: Jabber server and nginx works
[20:23] <ikonia> Davedan: ssh not running is the most common problem, or a firewall
[20:23] <actionparsnip> Davedan: telnet to the socket
[20:24] <zwakikushtia> in wine no program is installed
[20:24] <ikonia> Davedan: ssh localhost will test it
[20:24] <ikonia> zwakikushtia: then install programs
[20:24] <Davedan> actionparsnip: what do you mean?
[20:24] <zwakikushtia> how kan i install a progam in wine???
[20:24] <ikonia> zwakikushtia: read the links you where sent
[20:24] <ivansmo> NOW installing fonts :D
[20:24] <zwakikushtia> where
[20:24] <actionparsnip> Davedan: telnet can connect to any socket. A socket is an ip + port number
[20:24] <blakkheim> zwakikushtia: /join #winehq
[20:24] <ikonia> !wine | zwakikushtia
[20:24] <ivansmo> One more question please
[20:25] <Davedan> ikonia: ssh localhost from the ajax console works
[20:25] <ivansmo> I cant hear sound, my sound card has been installed and system seeas her but no sound at all
[20:25] <Davedan> ikonia: what does it tells me?
[20:25] <actionparsnip> Davedan: if you are on the ssh server, connect to localhost as you were told earlier. If it connects then you know the service is ok
[20:25] <DavidJHeinrich> VCoolio: Thank you
[20:25] <Davedan> actionparsnip: it does connect to localhost

[20:26] <Davedan> actionparsnip: can I ping to the ssh port?
[20:26] <actionparsnip> Davedan: are you connecting to a system behind a router?
[20:27] <Davedan> actionparsnip: I'm connecting to a vps
[20:27] <actionparsnip> Davedan: no,ping is only ip based
[20:27] <erUSUL> lifestream: easytag?
[20:27] <Davedan> actionparsnip: my local machine is behind a router but it didn't cause truble before
[20:27] <zwakikushtia> What is VPN???
[20:27] <ZykoticK9> Davedan, you can't "ping" a port but you can use "telnet" to test a port
[20:27] <Davedan> ZykoticK9: what is the command?
[20:28] <actionparsnip> Davedan: telnet to the ip on port 22 unless you changed the ssh port
[20:28] <Davedan> ZykoticK9: will it tell me if the firewall closed it? I was able to connect few days ago and didn't change anything since
[20:28] <BitWraith> what program provides the network manager in the tray on Xubuntu?

[20:31] <Hilikus> ii know that one, there's no way to do it automatically in one command? sometimes i forget to chown it
[20:31] <Trek> jokehead: i've got 7 completely different brands of wireless mice on 7  different computers running the same version of Ubuntu
[20:32] <Trek> jokehead: if that makes me an issue on that topic, then good for me.
[20:32] <Bigshot> coz_, any ideas that would fix this?
[20:32] <coz_> Bigshot,  mm I know too little about ati   to check on the driver installation but y ou could talk with soreau  about this

[20:32] <mezquitale> benwa-ktm_, reintall, if your user is not in the sudoers file in a fresh install that sounds like a really bad bug

[20:33] <Trek> zilkomaa: /join #irssi
[20:33] <zilkomaa> Thank you

[20:34] <mezquitale> benwa-ktm_, you could search through launcpad first though and maybe post a bug report, I bet a lot of the developers would want to see what happened on your machine
[20:34] <Bigshot> coz_, yes but later not before it happened
[20:34] <actionparsnip> Sphct: rm -rf /home/asmob/x

[20:46] <actionparsnip> Amirite: websearch for: ppa search
[20:46] <mezquitale> DavidJHeinrich, have you tried installing "gnome-alsamixer" and enabling the mic?
[20:46] <amirite> thanks action
[20:47] <daftykins> PeterT: possibly how big you want the virtual hard disk to be
[20:47] <actionparsnip> Amirite: the top result will allow you to search for a ppa with one on
[20:47] <PeterT> daftykins: I have an entire harddisk dedicated for Linux, what then?
[20:47] <shane2peru> Does anyone know how to get the terminal to sound an audible alarm when a job is done?
[20:47] <amirite> I found the ppa, but how do I install a ppa
[20:47] <daftykins> PeterT: you'd want to boot from CD and install like that, not use WUBI then.
[20:47] <DavidJHeinrich> do simple USB plug & play Sound Cards work better than PCI-E sound cards?
[20:47] <actionparsnip> Shane2peru: you could tell it to run a sound player playon a sound of some sort
[20:47] <jrib> shane2peru: command1; command2ThatPlaysSound?
[20:48] <Bigshot> i see "rectangles" instead of fonts  in "logon" screen i am using xfce -- this happened after i installed new fonts and changed the default fonts!!!
[20:48] <PeterT> daftykins: It doesn't seem to work like then
[20:48] <actionparsnip> Shane2peru: command1; command2; mplayer sound.mp3
[20:48] <shane2peru> actionparsnip, jrib, ok that was my thought too, is there a simple command to play a bell?  or do I need to script that out
[20:48] <jrib> shane2peru: see echo's man page
[20:49] <amirite> action, the instructions on installing ppa give gui instructions
[20:49] <amirite> i'm on a shell

[20:49] <amirite> what should i look for in etc
[20:49] <DavidJHeinrich> mezquitale, I have GNOME ALSA mixer, turned on the mic & mic boost...I hear feedback when I type or talk; so the mic pics it up and it goes to the headphones. But I still can't record
[20:49] <shane2peru> jrib, ok, I will check that out, thanks
[20:49] <Bigshot> actionparsnip, how?
[20:49] <jrib> shane2peru: echo -e '\a' apparently
[20:50] <actionparsnip> Amirite: use a web browser to follow, you can use lynx or use a different system
[20:50] <josh0x0> hey guys.  I just replaced a nvidia gfx card with an ATI.  I did a remove of the nvidia drivers with apt-get remove --purge nvidia* but the kernel is still trying to load it.  how can I safely remove it and tell it to load my ATI graphic driver?
[20:50] <amirite> no, i mean i want to install this ppa
[20:50] <amirite> wtf do i do
[20:50] <emghazal> !bot > emghazal
[20:50] <daftykins> josh0x0: modprobe -r nvidia
[20:50] <`mOOse`> anybody running firefox 3.6 on their boxes?
[20:50] <actionparsnip> Bigshot: it will be in preferences someplace
[20:50] <jrib> !ppa | amirite
[20:50] <amirite> the instructions on this page tell me to use some gui bullshit https://launchpad.net/~dcecchin/+archive/ppa
[20:50] <amirite> i'm not a gui user
[20:51] <jrib> amirite: erm, never mind ubottu's link
[20:51] <actionparsnip> `mOOse`: god no
[20:51] <josh0x0> daftykins: odd.  says it was not found but I still got an error on bootup that it couldn't find the driver "nvidia"
[20:51] <boourns> `mOOse`, i switched from firefox 3.6 to chrome... its much faster, for me at least
[20:51] <jrib> amirite: please watch the language though
[20:51] <zilkomaa> Hey! I updated firefox 3.5  to 3.62 and now i have firefox/namoroka combo thing is that a bad thing?
[20:51] <shane2peru> jrib, hmm, didn't work, I can just script it out so I have a simple bell command or something, thanks
[20:51] <actionparsnip> Amirite: ppa can be added at cli
[20:51] <zilkomaa> I want that firefox 3.62 only
[20:51] <amirite> right, how?
[20:51] <jrib> shane2peru: you've probably muted your terminal
[20:51] <`mOOse`> 3.6 is really hosed....I think I'll wait for 3.7
[20:51] <daftykins> josh0x0: that'll be because your /etc/X11/xorg.conf is still configured to use it then. backup the file and look up how-to's on setting xorg.conf to be configured for ATI
[20:51] <ZykoticK9> amirite, are you using karmic?  if so you can use "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:dcecchin/ppa"
[20:51] <actionparsnip> Zilkomaa: if that's its codename then yes
[20:51] <`mOOse`> chrome is nice and fast but I gotta have my addons
[20:52] <amirite> i'll try that zyko
[20:52] <boourns> they have them now - and its basically like greasemonkey is built in which is awesome
[20:52] <actionparsnip> `moose`: add the mozilla ppa and you can have it today
[20:52] <Bigshot> actionparsnip, i don't see anysetting for fonts
[20:52] <shane2peru> jrib, I don't think I did, I'm using Ubuntu, I think K has this in konsole a way to have a bell sound after a job
[20:52] <shane2peru> jrib, maybe I did, but I certainly don't think I did.
[20:52] <amirite> fuck it, i'll just download the source and compile
[20:52] <kermit> how can i tell when packages have been used last so i know what i can delete?
[20:52] <amirite> ubuntu is stupid
[20:52] <actionparsnip> Bigshot: that's all I can suggest. I keep the logon screen stock
[20:52] <jrib> shane2peru: it's probably muted by default
[20:52] <actionparsnip> !ohmy | amirite
[20:53] <`mOOse`> actionparsnip...I'm hesitant...I put it on my suse kde install and the first thing it did was break about 5 of my well-used addons, then it seems to like to lock up for no apparent reason occasionally - I'll wait
[20:53] <shane2peru> jrib, ahh, that is probably more likely, no big deal, I can script it faster than figure out how to unmute my terminal. :)
[20:53] <actionparsnip> `moose`: your call. Chromium daily here
[20:54] <`mOOse`> I'll just stay at 3.5.7 for the time being - there's really nothing wrong with it for me
[20:54] <RS-232> Hi
[20:54] <`mOOse`> actionparsnip, yea, it's an addon thing really
[20:54] <guntbert> !hi | RS-232
[20:54] <RS-232> How can I set a BETWEEN DATES argument in views?? It does only let me to set one,
[20:54] <jrib> RS-232: wrong channel?  or be more specific
[20:54] <actionparsnip> `moose`there's a tonne of addons now
[20:54] <guntbert> RS-232: about what application are you talking?
[20:55] <RS-232> GUYS, sorry, wrong channel
[20:55] <RS-232> X-Chat automatically joins this channel, and I forgot to switch
[20:55] <actionparsnip> Between dates this man sleeps. BAM!
[20:55] <tcliam> I have added a ppa repository now I am wanting to know how I can download from it?
[20:55] <`mOOse`> yea it's been a while since I've looked any of those over - I should revisit
[20:55] <Bigshot> actionparsnip, i still see same crap there
[20:56] <zilkomaa> actionparsnip: You mean that is bad thing ? How it is bad could you be more specific?
[20:56] <erUSUL> tcliam: you do not need to do anything special.
[20:57] <actionparsnip> Zilkomaa: what's bad?
[20:57] <tcliam> well in the package manager it is still showing the older version however I havent installed the older version yet?
[20:58] <zilkomaa> actionparsnip: Your dad, he has a new way to love you.
[20:58] <cupofubuntu_> ooh
[20:58] <DavidJHeinrich> anyone here have advice on internal vs. external sound cards?
[20:58] <cupofubuntu_> ubuntu
[20:59] <erUSUL> tcliam: did you updated the lists after adding the new repositorie?
[20:59] <tcliam> nvm i got it
[20:59] <tcliam> yes just did it thanks
[20:59] <actionparsnip> Zilkomaa: so that's where he got that new more last night
[20:59] <mezquitale> DavidJHeinrich, just make sure the external card is supported by  ubuntu, i have both, the external card goes to my stereo, the internal card is for me to use with headphones
[21:00] <erUSUL> DavidJHeinrich: internal ones are good enough for 99.9% of things you do in a computer
[21:01] <rideh> can anyone help me out w/ acpid not working?
[21:01] <actionparsnip> !hcl | DavidJHeinrich

[21:05] <TruthTaco> Im having trouble with video on ubuntu, anyone know of a good guide that can show me how to uninstall everything video related, and then reinstall everything I need (correctly?)
[21:05] <jerome__> cd/
[21:05] <actionparsnip> Truthtaco: video in what sense
[21:05] <erUSUL> macman_: specify the exact error you get. "is giving me errors" helps none
[21:06] <TruthTaco> video playback, in general. flash sometimes gives problems, desktop videos that I know work slow down and stutter in all players (5 different ones ive tried)
[21:07] <`mOOse`> sounds like an acceleration problem with your vid card to me
[21:07] <TruthTaco> who me?
[21:07] <`mOOse`> yes
[21:08] <TruthTaco> I had 9.10 installed and had video working for the most part, except for high def videos. and ive had 9.04 installed with this video card and had video working
[21:08] <guntbert> !who | `mOOse`

[21:10] <TruthTaco> really i would like high def to work too but at this point id be lucky to get just normal videos working
[21:10] <macman_> ./dev/sda5 is where ubuntu is installed
[21:10] <erUSUL> macman_: wubi install? or normal?
[21:10] <buckyowch> trying to work on a .htcaccess file - I found 9 files with the AllowOveride Property - none of them http.conf which is what the docs say.  Does anyone know what file Apache 2.2 needs to be configured to allow .htcaccess files?
[21:10] <macman_> erUSUL: navitve /normal
[21:11] <actionparsnip> Truthtaco: your card is considered old by ati. The open driver will support it
[21:11] <erUSUL> macman_: paste sudo fidisk -l
[21:11] <guntbert> buckyowch: ask in #httpd please
[21:11] <buckyowch> ah thanks!

[21:13] <recon69_lap> having problems with screen lockups when playing games, warzone2100 locks the screen regularly as well as urban terrorist (this loses sound, then locks on exit). anyone have any ideas?
[21:13] <erUSUL> enrico__: /join #ubuntu-it
[21:13] <DavidJHeinrich> erUSUL: do you have a recommendation for the best one to get? I just want it to work easily & well. Right now, I only use headphones or earbuds, so only 1 output + mic input
[21:13] <actionparsnip> !it | enrico
[21:14] <Darael> Does anyone in here have experience with davfs or fusedav?
[21:14] <DavidJHeinrich> erUSUL: I just want to be able to have music sound nice and have skype working easily, recommended SC for that?
[21:14] <jrib> Darael: best to just ask the channel your actual question (on a single line)
[21:14] <actionparsnip> Recon69_lap: can you restart x when it locks?
[21:14] <hwilde> how to make a directory recursively read-only ?
[21:14] <macman__> erUSUL: you there ?
[21:15] <jrib> hwilde: why?
[21:15] <hwilde> jrib, so that nobody can edit the code by accident
[21:15] <erUSUL> DavidJHeinrich: internal one is not working ? http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Main
[21:15] <erUSUL> macman__: yes
[21:15] <jrib> hwilde: remove write permissions recursively
[21:15] <jrib> !permissions > hwilde
[21:15] <macman__> ok cool .. i had to log into the machine that has the live cd .. one sec while i paste fdisk -l
[21:16] <DavidJHeinrich> erUSUL: my internal on-board doesn't seem to be able to let me record...i can't record anything
[21:16] <recon69_lap> actionparsnip: well, been switching to a new terminal,logging in and rebooting. I would assume I could restart x
[21:16] <thunder000> l
[21:16] <actionparsnip> Recond_lap: ok restart x and run: dmesg | tail
[21:16] <kermit> how can i list the size and last use of all my installed packages?
[21:16] <recon69_lap> or start a new x anyway
[21:16] <DavidJHeinrich> erUSUL: my Asus P5Q-E motherboard uses the ADI AD2000B on-board sound chip
[21:17] <actionparsnip> Recond69_lap: you can also run games in terminal to hopefully get smart outputs
[21:17] <Darael> I've been trying to mount a webDAV share, which I normally can only get to through a godsawful MS ISA server browser interface.  I can't get it to mount with gvfs (places->connect to server), but I can mount it with davfs2 or fusedav.  Problem is, if I use davfs2 it takes... well, more than half an hour to unmount (I restarted in the end) and if I use fusedav I can't unmount it at all.
[21:17] <recon69_lap> actionparsnip: I'll do that next time i get a lockup and report back :)
[21:17] <krysis> ikonia: hey, i made the xorg with the preconfigured stuff, i havent tested nexuiz yet but im sure it wont work... as i try to use gtk-recordmydesktop the output comes like this: http://www.box.net/shared/49nt82clbm  its very blocky and the window being moved falls apart =(
[21:17] <actionparsnip> Recond69_lap: does the system feel hot when it locks
[21:18] <jrib> Darael: at least a year ago, it was really buggy.  I always ended up just using cadaver
[21:18] <hwilde> jrib, can't you just tell me the chmod command already
[21:18] <Darael> jrib: Never heard of it - sounds like an interesting fourth thing to try, thanks.
[21:18] <mezquitale> what filesystem is faster? im reinstalling ubuntu right now, i want to choose a fast filesystem, not interested in reliability
[21:18] <krysis> ext4 should be the best mezquitale
[21:18] <recon69_lap> actionparsnip: not that I noticed, but never found a temp reporting tool in ubuntu :)
[21:18] <krysis> for indexing and stoarge
[21:18] <shane2peru> jrib, aplay wavefile works like a charm, :)  simple, took me longer to find the wav file I wanted then to write the script. :)
[21:18] <jrib> hwilde: I could, but running recursive chmod commands you don't understand is a great way to break your box.  So take 2 minutes to read the wiki page instead
[21:18] <krysis> storage*
[21:18] <erUSUL> mezquitale: xfs
[21:19] <Darael> mezquitale: It depends on the sort of files you want to store and how you'll be using them.
[21:19] <yaaar> hey guys. i've got an ldap process starting on boot that i don't want (because it keeps my zimbra services from starting...zimbra has its own builtin ldap) and i'm wondering how to keep it from coming up on boot. normally i'd use update-rc.d, but in this case there doesn't seem to be a script for it in /etc/init.d/ ...so where do i configure this behavior?
[21:19] <actionparsnip> Mezquitale: ext4 or xfs are fast. They are all pretty quick though. Speed depends on the hardware really
[21:19] <yaaar> oh yeah, this is 8.04 lts server
[21:19] <mezquitale> krysis, ext4 is faster than reiserfs?
[21:20] <mezquitale> actionparsnip, so ext4 is more faster than reiserfs then?\
[21:20] <erUSUL> reiserfs is dying has little future
[21:20] <jrib> hwilde: anyway, if you want me to check your command before you run it, that's fine
[21:20] <actionparsnip> Mezquitale: i'd compare filesystems with real tests online in tests
[21:20] <krysis> mezquitale: http://www.overclock.net/linux-unix/447378-reiserfs-vs-ext3-vs-ext4.html
[21:21] <yaaar> erUSUL: thought it was mrs-reiserfs that was dying
[21:21] <kermit> how do i remove large and unused packages?
[21:21] <actionparsnip> Kermit: sudo apt-get --purge remove packagename
[21:21] <erUSUL> yaaar: bad taste
[21:21] <hwilde> how to make a directory recursively read-only ?
[21:21] <DavidJHeinrich> yaaar: LOL @ that
[21:21] <bscape> is it possible to use wine-doors without gnome?
[21:22] <jken146> hwilde: chmod -R
[21:22] <xangua> bscape: it only uses gtk
[21:22] <kermit> actionparsnip: that part i know, how do i know what package names?
[21:22] <bscape> xangua: gotcha, thanks :)
[21:22] <actionparsnip> Hwilde: chmod -R 555 /path/to/folder
[21:22] <mezquitale> ext4 it is then
[21:22] <xangua> or that's what i believe :S
[21:22] <actionparsnip> Kermit: search software-center
[21:23] <Scrip> kermit : try sudo apt-get autoremove --purge
[21:23] <macman__> erUSUL: http://pastebin.com/m23043699
[21:23] <BedMan> actionparsnip: that's a bad idea... instead use chmod -R ugo-w /path/to/folder
[21:23] <actionparsnip> Kermit: openoffice and gimp are quite chunky
[21:23] <bscape> xangua: no, i think you're right, lack of gtk was in the error message
[21:23] <DavidJHeinrich> i've been on EXT4 since upgrading to 9.04
[21:23] <actionparsnip> Bedman: its to be set read only so is + not -
[21:23] <erUSUL> macman__: can you take a look at /boot/grub/device.map ?
[21:23] <DavidJHeinrich> for all partitions I think, except maybe root
[21:23] <DavidJHeinrich> i mean, except boot
[21:24] <actionparsnip> Bedman; isn't it?

[21:24] <SpaceGhostC2C> Evening. Anyone need help?
[21:24] <BedMan> on owner group and world
[21:24] <kermit> actionparsnip: i don't see how software-center will tell me what packages are large and unused
[21:24] <actionparsnip> Bedman: gotcha, I always use the number system. Makes it r and x for all users :)
[21:24] <BedMan> but leaves readability and executable if it's set
[21:25] <erUSUL> hwilde: BedMan right is --> chmod -R uog-w folder/

[21:25] <hwilde> erUSUL, why doesn't   a-w  work ?  I thought a was == uog
[21:25] <actionparsnip> Kermit: so you want the installed size of a package?
[21:25] <SpaceGhostC2C> Hey Riverthief. I hope you don't have anymore of those silly commands :P
[21:25] <BedMan> actionparsnip: you don't want to do that because it makes regular files (that were 644) have the wrong permission
[21:25] <helper> hey! how i can turn my wine audio? there's no audio work :(
[21:25] <macman__> erUSUL: i will look

[21:26] <actionparsnip> Kermit: uninstalling old kernels can save space too
[21:26] <SpaceGhostC2C> actionparsnip, I prefer the number system instead of letters.
[21:26] <erUSUL> hwilde: dunno
[21:26] <Riverthief> SpaceGhostC2C, nope haha
[21:26] <actionparsnip> Bedman: good point

[21:26] <Darael> Besogon: TuxPaint?
[21:26] <SpaceGhostC2C> Riverthief, unplug the keyboard, plug in plain keyboard:p
[21:27] <actionparsnip> Darael: tuxpaint is aweosme
[21:27] <mezquitale> Besogon, that's an easy one, use gimp
[21:27] <jrib> hwilde: my guess is test.txt exists already and you are just changing the times on it, in which case you don't need write permissions
[21:27] <Viking667> Whoops. Just found what i wanted in the pool directories
[21:27] <mttr> anyone using btrfs
[21:27] <jken146> actionparsnip: as for when they were last used, there's really no way to tell from dpkg. Just look at the names near the top of the list and see if there's anything you recognise and know you don't uer

[21:29] <helper> erUSUL is there any program like wine ? thx

[21:30] <erUSUL> helper: appart of wine itself? no; there are two wine derivatives cedega an crossover office

[21:33] <yaaar> hey guys. i'm on 8.04 lts server and i've got an ldap process starting on boot that i don't want (because it keeps my zimbra services from starting...zimbra has its own builtin ldap) and i'm wondering how to keep it from coming up on boot. normally i'd use update-rc.d, but in this case there doesn't seem to be a script for it in /etc/init.d/ ...so where do i configure this behavior?
[21:34] <quizme> but only for my linux box
[21:34] <quizme> i can ssh in from my windows box
[21:34] <quizme> anybody know why that's happening?
[21:34] <c001os> h iall
[21:34] <kermit> jken146: is there a way to show what depends on package too?
[21:35] <saji> !hi> c001os
[21:35] <plitter> how do i connect between 2 computers that has ubuntu?? i tried rightclicking and then share folder without having to have an account, but i still didnt find it on my other ubuntu computer. I used nautilus and just clicked on the network... and nothing came up there, which is weird because it usually finds windows computers on the network and i know the network was up and running...
[21:35] <metricpiano> how do I "Go to the Restricted Drivers Manager" ?? Can't find it
[21:35] <mlopezqc> yaaar: yes there must be
[21:35] <Viking667> Is there anything precluding the use of a <IP_ADDRESS> kernel on Karmic?
[21:35] <miranda_82> is there any rreasy why does /etc/rc.local not run at start?
[21:36] <macman__> i can't even install grub2
[21:36] <c001os> plitter, system>administration>restricted drivers
[21:36] <Viking667> I'm trying to find something I can run my 3D programs under without them falling over.
[21:36] <eeelumbella> hi there
[21:36] <mlopezqc> yaaar:  it is called slapd
[21:36] <eeelumbella> is there an alternative to pidgin and empathy for gnome?
[21:36] <jken146> kermit: apt-cache depends packagename
[21:36] <jibadeeha> anyone find their network manager icon is sometimes the sound icon or corrupt
[21:37] <plitter> c001os: isnt that just graphicsdrivers? at least that is what i get up...
[21:37] <eeelumbella> because pidgin has maaany processor-wakeups that are bad for my battery
[21:37] <Reemo> Hey guys, I'm trying to set up my DVB-T USB Stick (Terratec Cinergy DT XS Diversity) with 9.10. Did anyone go through that already? I'm not sure where to start. Is there a recommended TV application (other than totem?)
[21:37] <eeelumbella> and empathy lacks some important features i had in pidgin
[21:37] <wasutton3> about how long would it take for an old celeron to search 23,040 lines in a text file?
[21:37] <c001os> plitter, when avaible other restricted driver that shows you there
[21:38] <c001os> ... i thunk
[21:38] <c001os> think
[21:38] <erUSUL> wasutton3: how? grep pattern file ?
[21:38] <erUSUL> wasutton3: grep is pretty fast
[21:38] <wasutton3> erUSUL: i dont really know, its output from ping with date and time
[21:38] <c001os> grep is super fast :)
[21:38] <recon69_lap> Reemo: have you tried kaffeine
[21:38] <eeelumbella> or can i prevent pidgin from waking up my processor that often?
[21:38] <erUSUL> wasutton3: but what are you using to search?
[21:38] <j_ack> Reemo: me-tv
[21:39] <Reemo> recon69_lap, not yet, do i need the whole kde* stuff? I'm running an EeePC 701G so disk space is rare ;)
[21:39] <yaaar> mlopezqc: oh man...seems like i knew that once upon a time. thanks
[21:39] <wasutton3> erUSUL: i dont know yet, whatever is fastest and least complicated to do
[21:39] <erUSUL> wasutton3: use grep then
[21:39] <mlopezqc> yaaar: you are welcome
[21:39] <recon69_lap> Reemo: it's in the repo and works in gnome
[21:39] <j_ack> Reemo: me-tv is for gnome
[21:40] <wasutton3> erUSUL ok
[21:40] <cata> hi, I have recently installed a new cd/dvd-drive. Problem is it wont detect cds or if it does there is a 5+ minutes delay. What can I do??. I  just upgraded my system to Ubuntu 9.04. But problem remains.
[21:40] <kermit> how do i remove a single package?  when i try to remove some, apt-get says it's going to remove others too.
[21:40] <Reemo> great :) how about v4l-dvb in official repos. Is it outdated or can i stick with it?
[21:40] <jken146> kermit: why not let it remove the others?
[21:41] <kermit> jken146: because i want to keep them
[21:41] <metricpiano> where can I find Restricted Drivers?  It's not under System > Administration and I don't see anything in Software Center
[21:41] <escanfraga> Hi there!
[21:41] <erUSUL> metricpiano: for what hardware?
[21:41] <metricpiano> ATI
[21:41] <miranda_82> is anybody aware of a bug preventing /etc/rc.local to be run at boot?
[21:41] <macman__> erUSUL: is that the only way to fix grub .. can i fix grub via the install cd setup ?
[21:41] <erUSUL> metricpiano: how old?
[21:41] <jken146> kermit: If you remove a package on which another depends, the other won't work, so will be removed
[21:42] <jibadeeha> solved it ... turns out i needed to lock the notification panel and now the icon is no longer corrupt
[21:42] <jrib> miranda_82: no, but check bugs.ubuntu.com
[21:42] <erUSUL> macman__: no; im afraid not
[21:42] <jrib> miranda_82: (or ask the real question)
[21:42] <jken146> metricpiano: jockey-gtk
[21:43] <miranda_82> jrib, i asked before, but no one answered then i read this https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sysvinit/+bug/471266

[21:43] <genus> how do I install the gcc compiler?
[21:43] <erUSUL> metricpiano: ati fglrx is known to drop support for hardware pretty quickliy
[21:44] <erUSUL> metricpiano: probably you have to use the free radeon driver
[21:44] <erUSUL> genus: install build-essential package
[21:44] <genus> thanks
[21:44] <Reemo> j_ack, how stable is me-tv? its not yet in official repositories, is it?
[21:44] <Reemo> recon69_lap, just checked it, needs a whole bunch of kde libs... but thanks
[21:45] <wiiguy> question, i have a old laptop with ubuntu 5.10 on it how can i make it detect mine wireless usb ?
[21:45] <Toink> Hello!   Does anyone build installation CD images with integrated updated packages, and if not, why not?
[21:45] <jrib> !5.10 | wiiguy
[21:45] <wiiguy> !eol
[21:45] <jken146> Toink: What do you mean?
[21:46] <metricpiano> wiiguy: lucid recognized my wireless... you might have better luck with a newer version (karmic did not)
[21:46] <Toink> jken146, I mean, if I were to install ubuntu karmic right now, I'll probably have to download tens of megabytes of updates.  Can't these be integrated into an .iso so that I get a fresh system out of the box?
[21:47] <MuffinPimp> yeah I always wondered why ubuntu did that
[21:47] <jken146> Toink: You can get a netinstall ISO(about 10 MB) that downloads the latest packages during the installation
[21:47] <Toink> mmkay
[21:47] <jken146> Toink: they do update the live CDs for the LTS releases
[21:48] <Toink> i see
[21:48] <jken146> Toink: but for normal releases they just don't bother; almost all effort goes into the next release
[21:49] <klappi> Toink: if youre lucky you get a jigdo link as shown here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/JigdoDownloadHowto
[21:50] <Darael> I've been trying to mount a webDAV share, which I normally can only get to through a godsawful MS ISA server browser interface.  I can't get it to mount with gvfs (places->connect to server), but I can mount it with davfs2 or fusedav.  Problem is, if I use davfs2 it takes... well, more than half an hour to unmount (I restarted in the end) and if I use fusedav I can't unmount it at all.  Have tried cadaver as well as the graphical clients (davex
[21:50] <metricpiano> anyone want to come hand-hold in the #ubuntu-beginner channel?  Mainly about graphics cards and drivers... I'm so confused!

[21:52] <archboxman> EinoVirtanen: TRY playonlinux :)
[21:52] <recon69_lap> metricpiano: well, first thing is what video card you got?
[21:52] <Rubyiris> Would someone be able to explain to me why even though ubuntu is advertised to run basic programs, and even some games faster than windows, ubuntu actually runs significantly slower? Also would someone be able to help me improve my performance?
[21:53] <mleger> hello: may I ask a question regarding a ubuntu application here? more specifically, gnome-do? If not, is there a chat room I can get help on this app? Thanks!

[21:53] <klappi> EinoVirtanen: try wine "C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\WoW.exe" -opengl
[21:53] <EinoVirtanen> Rubyiris where have ubuntu been advertised to run windows games faster than windows itself? :o url!
[21:53] <EinoVirtanen> klappi okay
[21:53] <archboxman> metricpiano: accessiories > terminal > type lspci
[21:54] <archboxman> metricpiano: better yet lspci | more
[21:54] <MuffinPimp> Ohhh
[21:54] <Rubyiris> It's been advertised to do so on alot of websites. It's not like I've taken the liberty to memorize them. Use googlefu.
[21:54] <EinoVirtanen> oh silly me Hardware Drivers had a window open that suggests me to reboot the computer for the drivers to work properly :D
[21:54] <Kibby> anyone know a great mp3/aac tagging software for linux?
[21:54] <xangua> !ask | mleger
[21:54] <metricpiano> what amd I looking for in lspci?
[21:54] <lekefly> Anyone using DynDNS?
[21:54] <EinoVirtanen> Rubyiris yeah that is pretty common "it has been advertised" and the next thing people say "well I dont remember exactly where" etc
[21:55] <archboxman> metricpiano: video card you will see it
[21:55] <EinoVirtanen> Rubyiris I've seen cannabis advertised as a drug equally lethal with heroin :O
[21:55] <Rubyiris> I've seen it on -SEVERAL- websites.
[21:55] <xangua> if no one can help you here you can go to do's channel mleger: #gnome-do
[21:55] <Darael> lekefly: I am, what's up?
[21:55] <EinoVirtanen> ofc you have
[21:55] <lekefly> Anyone using DynDNS? at the end of the config file should it contain myhost.dynds.org ?
[21:55] <lekefly> Darael
[21:55] <archboxman> metricpiano: nvidia, ati or intel??
[21:55] <Rubyiris> But thats not important.
[21:55] <lekefly> Im using ddclient
[21:56] <Danbo19> can anyone tell me why I get an error while updating? It usually says a certain repository is not found... specifically: "Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net//ppa/ubuntu/dists/karmic/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz  404  Not Found"
[21:56] <archboxman> metricpiano: do you know how to pastbine?????
[21:56] <Darael> lekefly: Umm... I'm using a client built into my router, so I don't actually know about ddclient, sorry.
[21:56] <tsimpson> lekefly: it's whatever hostname you registered
[21:56] <mleger> Thanks. Gnome-do seems to run fine if I launch it manually after startup, but if I load it as part of my startup applications it hangs and generally takes up 100% of the cpu and freezes. Anyone familiar with this issue and a possible fix? I tested removing all plugins and still happens. And it happens sporadically
[21:56] <metricpiano>  this? ATI Technologies Inc M24 1P [Radeon Mobility
[21:56] <metricpiano> X600]
[21:56] <urlwallace> does ubuntu slowdown with too many temp files?
[21:56] <lekefly> tsimpson okey.. since it was not created there auto.. so i could edit it in then.. ?
[21:57] <Rubyiris> Would someone be able to explain to me why even though ubuntu is advertised to run basic programs, and even some games faster than windows, ubuntu actually runs significantly slower? Also would someone be able to help me improve my performance? <- reposting because people got off-track and didn't actully bother to help.
[21:57] <actionParsnip> urlwallace: if it makes your hdd reach capacity then yes
[21:57] <xangua> mleger: add the gnome do repository (a.k.a. ppa)
[21:57] <archboxman> metricpiano: I dont have a Ati card anyone can help with ati card install?? for metricpiano
[21:57] <curtmack> I think the universe build of python-poker2d is broken, it says there's a module missing and google searches turn up nothing.
[21:57] <metricpiano> archboxman: no I don't know what pastbine is
[21:57] <Danbo19> mleger: I had the same problem w/ gnome-do, I re-installed it and it very rarely happens now, I'm pretty sure there is a bug report for it on their launchpad.
[21:57] <curtmack> Rubyiris: Are you using wine?
[21:57] <urlwallace> what is the command to clear cpu slowing down files?
[21:57] <actionParsnip> Rubyiris: drivers or settings in the game, if the game is running via wine there can be slowdown, games made for linux run great
[21:57] <mleger> xangua: will do and will see if an updated version is available.
[21:57] <Rubyiris> I am.
[21:57] <klappi> Rubyiris: your question is quite generic what application is slow?
[21:57] <llutz> Rubyiris: ".. ubuntu is advertised to run basic programs, and even some games faster than windows,.." who told you that nonsense?
[21:57] <Viking667> I think I've got a weird bug here... On a 2.6.28 or 2.6.30 (on Karmic) I have a process starting from init called modem-manager. It opens the serial card, then tries to close the serial port, and stops dead. The only way I can stop it is the three finger salute...
[21:57] <truthtaco> hello, trying to fix my video issues, trying to get the open source driver to work properly. Ive went to this page and tied configuring my card https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver but that hasen't helped. (also made sure there were no conflicting drivers)
[21:58] <Viking667> doesn't happen with 2.6.31 kernels.
[21:58] <archboxman> metricpiano:  its ok you need to ask the room to help install ati video card
[21:58] <jpds> Danbo19: Ask the person in charge of the PPA, PPA's are not supported on Ubuntu.
[21:58] <macman_> sheesh it didn't fix my grub
[21:58] <actionParsnip> Rubyiris: some commercial games have native installers for linux and usually run better than windows
[21:58] <tsimpson> lekefly: yes
[21:58] <macman_> erUSUL: normally my error is grub erro 15 mine is 17
[21:58] <curtmack> Viking667: ...So use 2.6.31?
[21:58] <macman_> grub stated it installed fine
[21:58] <Rubyiris> Alot of applications are slow. Firefox slows to an absolute crawl if I have even a total of three tabs open. A problem I don't have on windows.
[21:58] <actionParsnip> Rubyiris: you are running a windows game on not windows so slowdown canbe expected
[21:58] <metricpiano> archboxman: I'm trying... I don't know what to ask!
[21:58] <erUSUL> Viking667: sounds like a kernel bug
[21:58] <Anden21> hi
[21:58] <Rubyiris> I'm not specifically asking for game help damnit. Learn to read.
[21:58] <macman_> erUSUL: should i just reinstall ?
[21:58] <urlwallace> thanks action
[21:59] <actionParsnip> Rubyiris: same applys to any app
[21:59] <orudie> пиздец подкрался незаметна
[21:59] <archboxman> metricpiano: system > administration > hardware drivers? see if the computer already has a driver selected for you to install...
[21:59] <Danbo19> jpds: really? I was unaware of that. Thanks.
[21:59] <macman_> erUSUL: i think its a bios thing
[21:59] <Rubyiris> Then why is ubuntu advertised to run basic apps, and -some- non linux games faster than windows?
[21:59] <Rubyiris> :|
[21:59] <xangua> run basic apps¿¿
[22:00] <metricpiano> sys > adm > h.drivers has ONLY the wireless broadcom driver, I see no other driver or option or anything
[22:00] <Rubyiris> music programs, firefox, etc.
[22:00] <lekefly> tsimpson is there a way i can make it update now?
[22:00] <truthtaco> Rubyiris, where did you see that?
[22:00] <Darael> Rubyiris: It's not advertised at all!  However, if people suggest it does it's probably because /in/ /their/ /experience/ it, does!
[22:00] <llutz> Rubyiris: ".. ubuntu is advertised to run basic programs, and even some games faster than windows,.."  *You* should cite some evidence
[22:01] <Rubyiris> llutz, it's everywhere to be honest. use your googlefu.
[22:01] <macman_> haha
[22:01] <macman_> it was the bios
[22:01] <llutz> Rubyiris: it's called "fanboy-blabla" and now pls troll off
[22:01] <macman_> 0_o
[22:01] <maco> Rubyiris: thats not advertising, thats random people saying *in their experience* it does
[22:01] <archboxman> Can someone help metricpiano install a ati driver for his video card to work????
[22:01] <Rubyiris> I'm not trolling, llutz.
[22:01] <maco> Rubyiris: do you see it anywhere on http://ubuntu.com ? no? didnt think so
[22:01] <llutz> you are
[22:01] <DavidJHeinrich> I have this sound card from my old computer, supposed to be PCI, ut it has 3 tabs...my PCI slots on the motherboard look like only has 1 long & a short slot...will this work with PCI slot? http://www.esaitech.com/commerce/ccp17878-creative-labs-sound-blaster-32-bit-pci-sound-card-ct4870-17878.htm
[22:01] <Darael> Rubyiris: It's not advertised - it's advocated.  That's not the same thing at all.
[22:01] <Rubyiris> I'm not.
[22:01] <truthtaco> so your suggesting that "someone" "somewhere" on google advertised that.....and now your mad that this random source was wrong?

[22:01] <maco> Rubyiris: only what is on http://ubuntu.com is the official advertised stats of it
[22:01] <Rubyiris> I came in asking for help and i'm suddenly trolling?
[22:02] <Rubyiris> what bullshit.
[22:02] <kaell> I'm having a problem with sound on Ubuntu.  It was working before I installed updates and rebooted, most of the time (I'd have to exit out of firefox for it to work in games, etc).  Now it doesn't work at all.  Any help?
[22:02] <kaell> Ubuntu 9.10
[22:02] <erUSUL> macman_: can youtake a look at grub configuration files?
[22:02] <jken146> !sound | kaell
[22:02] <maco> Rubyiris: that firefox is slower on ubuntu than windows is a known issue
[22:03] <Rubyiris> by slower, it's like a damned snail.
[22:03] <maco> Rubyiris: supposedly firefox in wine on ubuntu is 2x as fast as native firefox
[22:03] <maco> Rubyiris: because mozilla does special tricks when they compile firefox for windows
[22:03] <OerHeks> disable IP6 in firefox, that speeds up !
[22:03] <DavidJHeinrich> any help with making sure my old "PCI" sound-card will fit in my mobo?
[22:03] <xangua> ip6 or ipv6 OerHeks¿¿
[22:03] <maco> Rubyiris: by in-wine, i mean, the windows version in wine is faster than the native linux version
[22:03] <Rubyiris> hm.
[22:03] <truthtaco> hello, trying to fix my video issues, trying to get the open source driver to work properly. Ive went to this page and tied configuring my card https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver but that hasen't helped. (also made sure there were no conflicting drivers)
[22:03] <maco> OerHeks: that'll just get rid of the dns timeout...
[22:03] <Rubyiris> brb i'll give that a try.
[22:03] <DavidJHeinrich> it looks the right length, but has 3 tabs (2 short, 1 long), my mobo slot has 2 tabs, 1 long 1 short
[22:04] <curtmack> Rubyiris: Besides that, different computers can run the exact same program (in this case, operating system) at vastly different speed just because of how computers work.
[22:04] <aropupu> Rubyiris: out-of-the-box ubuntu is probably slower than something like winxp, sure
[22:04] <kaell> thanks jken146, it's working now, though I'm not sure what i did ><
