[09:36] <asdx> does dapper drake works fine with wireless wi-fi?
[09:36] <khermans> Eubey, sudo nano -w /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:36] <gmclachl> Eubey, use sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:36] <wd3> andrewski i use to use dos, this sounds sort of familiar. the man pages are manuals right, i bought a "linux for dummies" but still confusing.
[09:36] <katarot> im using a dell inspiron 1300 and dell mini-pci card
[09:36] <kronoz> khermans: not me thats gonna be using it, so it needs to be like it is in windows
[09:36] <TheMinion> andrewski: just change the number in there?
[09:36] <_jason> kronoz: I don't know, i use frostwire myself
[09:36] <khermans> Eubey, everything in /etc directory needs root access to be edited
[09:36] <IdleOne> vos_ck, it could work like it may not work but you can give it a try since you already borked knoppix
[09:36] <khermans> kronoz, FrostWire is like it is in windows
[09:37] <imc_> okay that problem solved. Now new one: I mislabeled the existing home partition and it installed as /media/hda4 not /home. What can I do?
[09:37] <khermans> kronoz, it is better even
[09:37] <lamego> asdx, assuming your card is supported, yes
[09:37] <ceteh> asdx: yes, i use ipw2200 and rtl8180 and dapper have drivers for this cards
[09:37] <khermans> kronoz, it is the same exact source code
[09:37] <imc_> Just change in /etc/fstab?
[09:37] <kronoz> khermans cool, i'll check it out
[09:37] <asdx> ceteh: belkin cards are supported?
[09:37] <andrewski> wd3: yes... manuals.  'man rm' will give you all the options for the rm command, sort of like 'del /?' would give in DOS.  only better. :-P
[09:37] <katarot> see dell have done something so the card turns on with xp and i need it to turn on with ubuntu
[09:37] <kronoz> khermans: people tend to get grouchy when things aren't like windows :( :(
[09:37] <kokis> hey, how i can increase the resolution screen when i am seeing a movie with mplayer?
[09:37] <chuckyp> Does anyone know if its possible to load xp inside of vmware from an xp partition.  I.e. startup the xp thats installed on say /hda# whatever.  Or do you have to install the os inside of vmware for it to work?
[09:37] <khermans> kronoz, i tend to get grouchy when things arent like Linux now
[09:38] <kokis> i do full scren, but the screen stay in the same resolution
[09:38] <kronoz> chuclyp: have you asked #vmware
[09:38] <andrewski> ubotu: tell TheMinion about Xorg
[09:38] <chuckyp> kronoz, yes
[09:38] <kronoz> khermans: lol, me too
[09:38] <khermans> kronoz, it took a few years for that to happen though -- now when I sit down on a Windoze box, i get pissed
[09:38] <_jason> kokis: use xv as the video output
[09:38] <imc_> I mislabeled the existing home partition and it installed as /media/hda4 not /home. What can I do?
[09:38] <wd3> andrewski thanks ur ok...i'm dual booting and haven't touched xp in a week, still having withdrawals though  he he he
[09:38] <vos_ck> IdleOne : Well Debian's Spinning system should be able to manage this, isn't it? But Knoppix recommends not to try it! Are there any recommendations like this for Ubuntu?
[09:38] <TheMinion> andrewski: thanks
[09:38] <khermans> imc_, try editing fstab
[09:38] <lamego> chuckyp, you will need to install the OS inside a VM disk file
[09:38] <khermans> wd3, no need for withdrawals!
[09:38] <ceteh> asdx: i don't know, tell me which card
[09:38] <khermans> wd3, what dont you like?
[09:38] <kokis> _jason: thanks
[09:39] <imc_> right, but khermans, just telling fstab won't bork the /home assignment for my users? Should I also do usermod?
[09:39] <IdleOne> vos_ck, try #kubuntu KDE version of Ubuntu
[09:39] <katarot> is there any way i can get the my card to turn on with ubuntu
[09:39] <thrice`> !ipod
[09:39] <ubotu> info for syncing your iPod is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IPodHowto
[09:39] <khermans> imc_, nor sure -- try and find out :-)
[09:39] <chuckyp> lamego, ty
[09:39] <andrewski> TheMinion: you'll probably need to get your monitor's specifications to be completely accurate.  you can search google for "monitor model specifications" to get the numbers, if they're out there.  i usually do that when i'm reinstalling for my dell monitor. :)
[09:39] <imc_> :-D
[09:39] <b-or> about installing ubuntu- should i "release" the free space [not to make a partition from them]  i want to use for linux with partition magic and choose them in the installation?
[09:39] <kronoz> khermans: can : http://mirror2.ubuntulinux.nl be used with dapper?
[09:39] <andrewski> b-or: sounds good.
[09:39] <Eubey> ok, how do i reinstall vncviewer?
[09:39] <bimberi> ubotu tell katarot about wifi
[09:40] <vos_ck> IdleOne : thanks, I will do that. Bye
[09:40] <wd3> khermans the color, eyecandy, simplicity..... i read poofyhairguy eyecandy stories in begginers and man i'm pumped to install conky, fvwm,eterm and gdesklet maybe that will stop the withdrawals
[09:40] <khermans> kronoz, i wouldnt use seveas repos --- just follow the ubuntu wiki
[09:40] <kronoz> khermans: ok
[09:40] <b-or> andrewski: great... it will not do any problems?
[09:40] <Seveas> kronoz, I plan to make dapper packages soon - which package are you looking for?
[09:40] <andrewski> b-or: i can't vouch for partition magic, but that sounds like what other people do.
[09:40] <TheMinion> andrewski: ok, thanks much
[09:40] <andrewski> TheMinion: cheers, g'luck.
[09:41] <bimberi> Eubey: sudo aptitude install xvncviewer
[09:41] <wd3> hey seveas u helped me in the past hows thinkgz?
[09:41] <b-or> andrewski: have u heard about other ways? (i'm using XP)
[09:41] <SynapseRecall> b-or, are you looking to install ubuntu?
[09:41] <andrewski> b-or: i've always formatted the drive and repartitioned it fresh.  :-P
[09:41] <lamego> does the ubuntu part manager on the installer allows to resize ntfs parts ?
[09:42] <kronoz> Seveas: ah! the man. JRE 5.0
[09:42] <b-or> SynapseRecall: yes please :P
[09:42] <Eubey> kk i did that, but when i do vncviewer or xvncviewer it still says i have version 4
[09:42] <bunta> argh
[09:42] <andrewski> lamego: i've heard it does, though i'm not sure.
[09:42] <bunta> I cant see anything on the tv
[09:42] <bunta> * sob *
[09:42] <Seveas> kronoz, that one is safe to use on dapper
[09:42] <bimberi> lamego: yes
[09:42] <SynapseRecall> b-or, just use the ubuntu partitioner
[09:42] <obli> How can I get GIMP to look like photoshop? I remember hearing about this a while ago...
[09:42] <_jason> obli: gimpshop
[09:42] <andrewski> lamego: SynapseRecall just said that it does. :)
[09:42] <kronoz> Seveas: there's a package for it?
[09:42] <obli> thanks
[09:42] <katarot> i have been using ndiswrapper it wont work it says the hardware is present and the driver but there is no wlan0
[09:42] <lamego> b-or, so you shouldn't need to use part magic
[09:42] <SynapseRecall> lamego, i think no
[09:42] <SynapseRecall> t
[09:43] <Seveas> kronoz, section java on my repo
[09:43] <lamego> erm, yes or no :P ?
[09:43] <wd3> andrewski, i installed automatix and all the video and audio and some other stuff now my system is slow why. i have a 30 g. win on 10g, ununtu 10g and 10free how can i make the 10 free for ubuntu?
[09:43] <SynapseRecall> lamego, i'd try it
[09:43] <Eubey> khermans, kk i did that, but when i do vncviewer or xvncviewer it still says i have version 4
[09:43] <andrewski> wd3: just ask; no need to target me.
[09:43] <IdleOne> !automatix
[09:43] <ubotu> I guess automatix is unsafe, it overwrites configuration files, and does things like "echo -e 'y\nY\n'" that are considered risky. Please do not use it. There are alternative applications, but it's often best to read the documentation.
[09:43] <SynapseRecall> wd3, format it
[09:43] <andrewski> i'm actually leaving.
[09:43] <lamego> SynapseRecall, i don't need it for myself, was just to advice the user here :P
[09:43] <b-or> SynapseRecall: but the space i want to use is a free space in a partition used by XP.. it wiil still be cool? :P
[09:43] <Seveas> wd3, automatix is a virus
[09:44] <SynapseRecall> b-or, dunno then.
[09:44] <bunta> w00t.. Lovely picture
[09:44] <bimberi> lamego: yes - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/forum/installation/Partitioning
[09:44] <wd3> seveas noooooooooo oh no, what do i do now?
[09:44] <SynapseRecall> yes, automatix sucks
[09:44] <bunta> I'm a happy bugger :P
[09:44] <katarot> any one got any kind of idea why the card is not being recognised after ndiswrapper
[09:44] <lamego> b-or, you should be able to shkring your ntfs part
[09:44] <lamego> bimberi, thanks
[09:44] <bimberi> lamego: np :)
[09:44] <SynapseRecall> use easy ubuntu instead of automatix.
[09:44] <SynapseRecall> !easyubuntu
[09:44] <ubotu> easyubuntu is an easy-to-use program for installing all your favorites. Java, Nvidia/ATI, and more. It is as safe as the team can make it. It doesn't change any settings by default. http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/ or #easyubuntu
[09:45] <kronoz> is the debian/ubuntu package on frostwire.com safe to use?
[09:45] <SynapseRecall> kronoz, yes
[09:45] <obli> can i install RPMs on ubuntu?
[09:45] <_jason> kronoz: yes
[09:45] <SynapseRecall> obli, yes, install alien
[09:45] <obli> or should I get the gimpshop source and compile it?
[09:45] <_jason> obli: not recommended
[09:45] <khermans> Eubey, yeah it wont go back to the old version
[09:45] <wd3> ok so how do i get automatix off and clean the virus
[09:45] <SynapseRecall> obli, always better to compile from source then use an .rpm
[09:45] <SynapseRecall> wd3, their is no virus ..
[09:45] <lucas> !fonts
[09:45] <katarot> who here use a dell laptop
[09:45] <ubotu> rumour has it, fonts is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FontInstallHowto
[09:45] <SynapseRecall> wd3, it just sucks
[09:45] <b-or> lamego: what is "shkring"?
[09:45] <Eubey> so i shoudl jus wait until the actual 4.0 is released?
[09:45] <cohonen> hey guys
[09:45] <wd3> can i uninstall
[09:45] <SynapseRecall> wd3, yea
[09:46] <_jason> katarot: probably a lot of people, just ask your question
[09:46] <wd3> please how
[09:46] <cohonen> how optimised is the amd64 version?
[09:46] <SynapseRecall> wd3, just delete it
[09:46] <wd3> using synatptic
[09:46] <cohonen> is it just another kernel or is everything compiler for amd64
[09:46] <Seveas> wd3, depending on what you let automatix do you can uninstall it
[09:46] <katarot> well i want to know why after i use ndiswrapper is the card still not being recognised im confused
[09:46] <wd3> what's the best way to delete it and all the software it installed
[09:47] <SynapseRecall> wd3, you don't want to remove all the stuff it installed ..
[09:47] <tritium> wd3: that's exactly the problem with automatix
[09:47] <wd3> tritium what exactly
[09:47] <Hattori> what's NFS?
[09:47] <cohonen> well?
[09:48] <ceteh> Hattori: network file system
[09:48] <IdleOne> cohonen, its compiled for amd64
[09:48] <rcsolutions> "Some people on AMD64 solve this problem by installing a 32-bit version of the operating system inside a chroot" I have AMD64.. but what's a chroot?
[09:48] <Hattori> like samba?
[09:48] <IdleOne> !tell cohonen about patience
[09:48] <bimberi> !chroot
[09:48] <ubotu> methinks chroot is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=24575
[09:48] <Hattori> ceteh: like samba?
[09:48] <rcsolutions> sentence about w32codecs: "Some people on AMD64 solve this problem by installing a 32-bit version of the operating system inside a chroot" I have AMD64.. but what's a chroot?
[09:49] <cohonen> IdleOne, well is all packages?
[09:49] <cohonen> that sounds pretty nice
[09:49] <ceteh> Hattori: yes
[09:49] <bimberi> !tell rcsolutions about chroot
[09:49] <Hattori> k thx
[09:49] <katarot> i can get internet fine when i connect it to the modem but i just cant get wireless
[09:49] <timon-ubu> finns irssi med ett gui?
[09:49] <rcsolutions> thanks
[09:49] <timon-ubu> ops sorry
[09:49] <bimberi> yw
[09:49] <SynapseRecall> english please
[09:50] <kingspawn> timon-ubu: no, i dont think so
[09:50] <timon-ubu> k
[09:50] <Cyorxamp> Does anyone in here have a faulty SL-5500?
[09:50] <Cyorxamp> I am interested in getting a replacement main board - so if anyone has a SL-5500 (e.g. with a broken screen) then that would be great
[09:51] <noirequus> !fi
[09:51] <ubotu> Suomenkielinen keskustelu Ubuntusta kanavalla #ubuntu-fi
[09:51] <cohonen> whats a sl5500 ?
[09:51] <cohonen> its a zaurus right?
[09:51] <Xnos> is thera a way to reintall metacity...
[09:51] <techrush> heh why is mozilla a dependency of eclipse
[09:51] <Xnos> ?
[09:51] <r4zz> sweet little pocket computer
[09:51] <cohonen> ahh oki a zauruss
[09:51] <tanath> why are there only 3 changeable apps under 'preferred applications' yet there are other defaults that i can't find how to change?
[09:51] <r4zz> yeah
[09:51] <tanath> (like the media player)
[09:51] <gmclachl> techrush, not sure but i think if you download Eclipse with the web tools it uses linux as the HTML engine
[09:52] <lamego> does easyubuntu works with dapper ?
[09:52] <WMIIII923> db_get mirror/protocol Can anyone tell me where db_get is reading this from?
[09:52] <ompaul> lamego, go to #easyubuntu and ask
[09:53] <IdleOne> WMIIII923, /etc/apt/sources.list I think is what your looking for
[09:53] <hoichi> hello
[09:53] <WMIIII923> IdleOne,  I'm in the installer, it doesn't exist yet. I'm trying to install Ubuntu without a floppy or CD ROM drive.
[09:53] <hoichi> guys, you dont think its unsafe that Ubuntu uses the user password as the root password also ?
[09:53] <kronoz> i can't launch frostwire
[09:53] <kronoz> : command not found:
[09:53] <kronoz> : No such file or directory
[09:53] <kronoz> : command not found:

[09:54] <kronoz> 'unFrost.sh: line 24: `look_for_java()
[09:54] <kronoz> sorry...
[09:54] <IdleOne> WMIIII923, oh well then I have no clue
[09:54] <tritium> kronoz: no pasting please
[09:54] <hoichi> kronoz: dont paste please
[09:54] <wd3> i have 30g hd.... winxp on 10g - ubuntu on 10g - free10g how can i add the 10free to ubuntu?
[09:54] <crimsun> hoichi: that user password is _not_ the same as the root password. It's only a side effect that the user has root _privileges_ via sudo.
[09:54] <TheMinion> how do i update firefox?
[09:54] <IdleOne> !ff1.5
[09:54] <ubotu> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[09:54] <hoichi> crimsun: but i have NO root password... so where is it?
[09:54] <joeljkp> anyone know how to get idle to use the gtk look-and-feel?
[09:55] <fluxt> !root
[09:55] <ubotu> By default, the root password is locked in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[09:55] <TheMinion> thanks
[09:55] <crimsun> hoichi: where is what?
[09:55] <hoichi> ahh yeh i rmember now
[09:55] <wd3> i have 30g hd.... winxp on 10g - ubuntu on 10g - free10g how can i add the 10free to ubuntu?
[09:55] <hoichi> hmm i dont really like that :/
[09:55] <hoichi> maybe its good though
[09:55] <hoichi> dunno
[09:55] <bimberi> hoichi: it's working for a lot of ubuntu users :)
[09:55] <IdleOne> wd3, use gparted from ubuntu LiveCd
[09:55] <daaku> is it possible to disable some kernel modules from auto loading? (ubuntu loads a bunch on boot, some of which i dont want - even though i have the matching hardware)
[09:55] <vbgunz> where do I go to talk about dapper?
[09:55] <crimsun> the hash can't match a blank password, which is highly improbably the same as your user's password.
[09:55] <fluxt> i use su and a root password all the time
[09:55] <cohonen> hoichi, just do sudo passwd root
[09:56] <hoichi> bimberi: never said it doesnt work ... it obviously works
[09:56] <maxkelley> vbgunz: #ubuntu+1
[09:56] <vbgunz> maxkelley: thank you
[09:56] <spacey> crimsun: its not disabled
[09:56] <maxkelley> vbgunz: np
[09:56] <spacey> there is no root password
[09:56] <spacey> its just a *
[09:56] <hoichi> but i mean.. if someone cracks your user password they then have access to root also ..
[09:56] <fluxt> i consider a 10/15 min timeout on sudo a security risk
[09:56] <wd3> idleone, thanks do i choose to partition the free 10 won't that make another drive?
[09:56] <crimsun> spacey: I didn't say it was disabled
[09:56] <bimberi> hoichi: yeah, badly phrased sorry
[09:56] <tritium> cohonen: let's not recommend that.  Intead, suggest that sudo be given a try.
 the hash can't match a blank password, which is highly improbably the same as your user's password.
[09:56] <katarot> could my problem be that my desktop which is connected directly to the modem is running xp and not ubuntu
[09:56] <cohonen> hoichi, somehow they thought it was a good idea
[09:56] <IdleOne> wd3, never used it but thats what I see in here given as advice
[09:56] <cohonen> tritium, why
[09:56] <crimsun> spacey: a blank password is not the same as a disabled password
[09:57] <fluxt> hoichi: yeah, pretty much unless you disable sudo
[09:57] <wd3> idleone thanks
[09:57] <hoichi> that sucks  :/
[09:57] <spacey> crimsun: exactly
[09:57] <cohonen> tritium, besides the obvious thats its not a good idea to run with root prilvileges to do trivial things
[09:57] <tritium> !tell cohonen about root
[09:57] <crimsun> spacey: so...
[09:57] <fluxt> hoichi: i believe the opposite to their security ides, but i think the ideas are for noobs
[09:57] <wd3> is it worth installing the virus and firewall prog
[09:57] <maxkelley> wd3: I don't think so..
[09:57] <hoichi> fluxt: yes i agree, i think that is for the noobs
[09:57] <cohonen> some actually preferr to live life dangerously / and have easy access to admin stuff
[09:57] <spacey> crimsun: naja anyway ubotu said it was disabled
[09:57] <spacey> :p
[09:58] <spacey> nevermind
[09:58] <crimsun> spacey: just fix it, then.
[09:58] <spacey> didn't read carefully;p
[09:58] <tritium> cohonen: then can run "sudo -i" for that
[09:58] <nasso> does anyone know how to completly remove a package using apt-get?
[09:58] <wd3> after install automatix and others my system is slow and i still have 7g from 10g why?
[09:58] <nasso> including configurationfiles etc
[09:58] <crimsun> nasso: --purge remove
[09:58] <spacey> locked even
[09:58] <IdleOne> nasso,  sodo apt-get --purge remove package
[09:58] <nasso> crimsun, thanks
[09:59] <cohonen> tritium, i know the root pwd is locked
[09:59] <catlinux> How can I make mc display correctly the characters in mrxvt? I get many "" strings in mrxvt.
[09:59] <krang> Anyone: I installed gcc, but my kernel compiler is listed as gcc version 3.4.5, whilst the gcc version is listed as 4.0.2. How do I get them both the same? Sould I?
[09:59] <hoichi> but i mean .. learn the best way .. the hard way .. thats my philosophy anyway..if you make a typo as root i bet you wont do it again ..or at least try not too..but not allowing users to have a root account..i dunno..im kind of fifty fifty on it but i would prefer to have root account personally :)
[09:59] <Hattori> to upgrade to dapper, the https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyUpgrade howto is still valid? same steps?
[09:59] <kingspawn> hoichi: then set up a root password, and start having a ball
[09:59] <IdleOne> krang, sudo apt-get install build-essential
[09:59] <efarrar> howdy, I accidentally deleted my grub menu.lst, then i rewrote it and I still can't boot (error 15: file not found), any ideas?
[09:59] <kingspawn> efarrar: make a new one?
[09:59] <hoichi> kingspawn: im just moaning about stuff right now :P
[10:00] <hoichi> no sleeep in 32 hrs
[10:00] <lamego> Hattori, just change the repos and run the dist-upgrade
[10:00] <cohonen> hoichi, cool
[10:00] <fluxt> hoichi: i think you see enough of the problems to work it out :)
[10:00] <Hattori> wich repository i need to use?
[10:00] <bimberi> !tell hattori about upgrade
[10:00] <Hattori> there are no repository list there
[10:01] <Zarephath> For some reason fstab is not loading my entry for hda1....it mounts my external hard drive(USB)...if I go to terminal and mount /media/winxp it mounts just fine..any idea why it doesn't show up on the desktop? I tried adding the line above my external to see if that makes a difference but no joy
[10:01] <hoichi> but anyway i love ubuntu, ialways will..it was my first *nix experience
[10:01] <bimberi> Hattori: test the dist-upgrader for us :)
[10:01] <IdleOne> !tell Hattori about repos
[10:01] <katarot> im ready to break down someone must know why i cant detect my card
[10:01] <kingspawn> Zarephath: pastebin your fstab
[10:01] <efarrar> kingspawn, i did, with only "timeout 15\n root (hd0,0)\n kernel /vmlinuz root=/dev/hdb1"
[10:01] <Zarephath> kingspawn: Yeah ok...
[10:01] <hoichi> katarot: take it easy, someone will help you out, dont worry
[10:02] <krang> how do I set my kernel compiler to the newer version of gcc? I tried "export CC=gcc", but the kernel compiler is still the old one
[10:02] <kingspawn> efarrar: did you explicitly call grub-install afterwards?
[10:02] <katarot> hoichi: i know im just tired of it lol
[10:02] <efarrar> no, the livecd i am working off of would not let me run it
[10:02] <lamego> krang, you should compile the kernel with the recommended compiler
[10:02] <obli> I just installed elinks for the sheer awesomeness of text-based browsing, I'd like to make the command 'lynx' to do the same as 'elinks', though, is it possible?
[10:02] <efarrar> i will try another livecd though
[10:02] <kingspawn> efarrar: does it let you run grub?
[10:03] <efarrar> yes
[10:03] <baconbacon> obli, you could make a symlink
[10:03] <krang> lamego: the problem is that I'm trying to install the qc-usb package and it's complaining that my kernel compiler version is different from my gcc version
[10:03] <kingspawn> obli: export ALIAS lynx=elinks
[10:03] <efarrar> i manually typed those in and then "boot" then it still did about the same
[10:03] <IdleOne> krang, sudo apt-get install build-essential will fix the gcc error your getting
[10:03] <C-O-L-T> how to recreate fstab because I have deleted it unfortunately
[10:03] <Zarephath> Kingspawn: http://www.pastebin.com/611289
[10:03] <lamego> krang, install the gcc version used by the kernel and set the CC var to it
[10:03] <C-O-L-T> Every time I have to mount again my drives
[10:04] <krang> okely doke. would that just be apt-get install gcc<blah blah version number> ?
[10:04] <lamego> C-O-L-T, I guess you will need to recreate it manually
[10:04] <C-O-L-T> lamego: how/
[10:04] <baconbacon> kingspawn, yes but does it work always or only from a command line
[10:04] <IdleOne> krang, sudo apt-get install build-essential
[10:04] <IdleOne> like that
[10:04] <C-O-L-T> lamego: how?????
[10:05] <lamego> krang, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelHowto
[10:05] <kingspawn> Zarephath: firstly, you dont want it to be rw, it will screw your data with a likelihood of 95%, your umask seems strange, make it 0222
[10:05] <lamego> C-O-L-T, list your partitions with fdisk and add to the fstab
[10:05] <krang> IdleOne: will that give me the right gcc version though? I need 3.4.5
[10:05] <kingspawn> baconbacon: you have to add it to .bash_profile for instance if you want it to work always
[10:05] <katarot> can someone help with my dell inprion 1300 and dell mini-pci card i have used ndiswrapper and it works fine the hardware is present and so is the driver but i still cant get it to detect the card for some reseon it works fine on xp
[10:05] <lamego> krang, check that wiki page...
[10:05] <IdleOne> krang,  no it wont it will break the entire system and send you crying :P
[10:05] <cohonen> katarot, ofcause it works on xp
[10:05] <krang> IdleOne: LOL
[10:06] <cohonen> ms has the advantage of huge vendor support
[10:06] <offff> Necessary of 2 ips in the same machine (virtual). Which the best option? To raise an interface (alias eth0:1)  Or  to use the "ip addr 192.168.x.x dev ethx"?
[10:06] <katarot> cohonen: why is it not working on ubuntu then
[10:06] <krang> IdleOne: off to th wiki I go
[10:06] <IdleOne> krang,  ok :)
[10:06] <C-O-L-T> lamego: I have listed it but can I get somewhere an example of how to write to fstab
[10:06] <C-O-L-T> ?
[10:06] <IdleOne> cohonen, MS has an incredible OS and if they ever figure out how to get it working properly Ill switch back
[10:06] <cohonen> katarot, because the vendor is a nasty type who wont suuport linux and release tech docs so a proper opensource driver can be written
[10:07] <kingspawn> C-O-L-T: http://www.pastebin.com/611289
[10:07] <cohonen> IdleOne, ok ,, well vista is going to be better than XP so there you go
[10:07] <katarot> cohonen: i read on the forum that dell does something to the card to make sure it only turns on when dell turns on could this be true
[10:07] <rcsolutions> When I do "sudo apt-get install dchroot" it says it's impossible to find dchroot package.
[10:07] <techrush> !java
[10:07] <ubotu> To install Java/Sun Java see Java on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats and also see !javadebs
[10:08] <cohonen> katarot, i dont understand what you mean
[10:08] <cohonen> could you elaborate ?
[10:08] <bimberi> offff: i can't compare the methods but the interface alias method has always worked well for me
[10:09] <katarot> cohonen: someone said that dell made the card so it turns it self on with xp
[10:09] <cohonen> arggg i cant wait 40 min to get a single loucy cd,, com-on,download it
[10:09] <IdleOne> katarot, thats called hardcoding and apple does it also but you should be able to get it working on linux also
[10:09] <offff> bimberi: But the problem that interface (you unite) does not function PREROUTING
[10:09] <offff> you unite = alias
[10:09] <katarot> idleone: how could i do that
[10:09] <cohonen> katarot, i doubt that
[10:09] <clem_yeats> rcsolutions : sudo aptitude search name_of_package
[10:10] <ubuntu_> Hallo
[10:10] <cohonen> katarot, it just has a working driver
[10:10] <rcsolutions> When I do "sudo apt-get install dchroot" on the terminal, it says it's impossible to find dchroot package. I'm doing this because I want to use the w32codecs on an AMD64.. they told me to make a chroot or something like that...
[10:10] <rcsolutions> Ok ok
[10:10] <cohonen> katarot, anyway ,, another time ,, go for a thinkpad t or x .. they have exceptional linux support
[10:11] <Zarephath> kingspawn: like I said it mounts just fine from terminal, there was nothing wrong with the fstab..but I changed it just to show you that it wouldn't affect the outcome...
[10:11] <katarot> cohonen: why does ndiswrapper not work i have did it correctly i got the drivers from dell \
[10:11] <bimberi> offff: i don't know sorry
[10:11] <rcsolutions> clem_yeats : Nothing happens when I type this... and the problem remains
[10:11] <IdleOne> !tell rcsolutions about repos
[10:11] <michael_> I installed and reinstalled the Forecastfox <IP_ADDRESS> on Firefox 1.0.7 but it won't work. There is a small box down in the status bar between Fasterfox and Adblock that I think is supposed to be the extension. Any ideas?
[10:11] <cohonen> katarot, beats me ,, maybe ndiswrapper isnt as good as you think it is
[10:11] <cohonen> thats why native drivers are the best
[10:12] <IdleOne> michael_, upgrade to ff1.5
[10:12] <kingspawn> Zarephath: well, dmesg | tail after boot to check what it says about the mounting. check /var/log/
[10:12] <IdleOne> !tell michael_ about ff1.5
[10:12] <michael_> k, ty
[10:12] <katarot> cohonen: native driver confuse me i got one but dont know what to do with it
[10:12] <krang> IdleOne: I got build-essential. but it hasn't changed anything. is there any way I can just set the active gcc to be the older version? I have 3.4.5 and 4.0.2 installed
[10:12] <Zarephath> kingspawn: I will look it over again just in case I missed something...didn't see anything the first time... :-(
[10:13] <cohonen> katarot, well a native driver would be one thats actually made to drive your device on the "native" os ,, that is,, in this case linux
[10:13] <cohonen> as opposed to running a windows driver through some wrapper thingie
[10:13] <katarot> cohonen: how would i install it
[10:14] <jpotex> I'm trying to install Ubuntu, but when I'm supposed to choose a partition, there's no partitions at all to choose between.
[10:14] <cohonen> katarot, have no idea,, im a hardware freak ,, i only buy hardware i know linux has native drivers for
[10:14] <jpotex> Any ideas whats wrong?
[10:14] <cohonen> im sorry
[10:14] <katarot> cohenen: thanks anyway
[10:14] <cohonen> katarot, sure,, but there  must be guides on google
[10:15] <cohonen> katarot, you could search for your laptop on tuxmobile.org or linuxonlaptops
[10:15] <Dreamglider> how do i mount iso file
[10:15] <cohonen> theres often good guides
[10:15] <katarot> cohenen: yeah there is but it says i have to build a new kernel and that sounds hard
[10:15] <misterii> II wonder, whats the problem. I tried VLC and totem and totem-xine but they all give me "scrambled output"
[10:15] <tritium> katarot: build a new kernel for what?
[10:15] <cohonen> katarot, its very easy to build a new kernel
[10:16] <misterii> it like the output is in "dots of noise"
[10:16] <cohonen> the hard part is to select what you want in that kernel
[10:16] <tritium> cohonen: you can build driver modules without having to build a new kernel
[10:16] <apolo> hola
[10:16] <cohonen> tritium, i know
[10:16] <Zarephath> kingspawn: mtab has no entry for /dev/hda1....while I do see it for /sda1....lemme see what kind of mileage I get by adding it to mtab...
[10:16] <katarot> tritium: emm to get a native driver for ubuntu
[10:17] <krang> Anyone : where do i find the kernel compiler in the filesystem?
[10:17] <cohonen> tritium, but that wasnt the question
[10:17] <apolo> disculpen alguiensabe como conseguir la aceleracion ed una targea unichrome
[10:17] <NickGarvey> !es
[10:17] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[10:17] <Zarephath> krang: Well if it is like most other *nix flavors it would be cd /usr/src/linux make menuconfig
[10:17] <apolo> ok
[10:17] <NickGarvey> do X servers work over WANs or just LANs?  I can't seem to connect to my X server using my WAN ip
[10:17] <cohonen> besides modules often cause problems ,, i build stuff inside when i can get away with it ,,
[10:17] <krang> Zarephath: thanks, I'll have a look
[10:17] <apolo> i need  help for the 3d acceleration
[10:18] <Zarephath> apolo: What video card?
[10:18] <apolo> with a unichrome
[10:18] <misterii> anyone use xmule here?
[10:18] <apolo> I cant compile for get  drm.ko y via.ko
[10:18] <kingspawn> Zarephath: its not supposed to be manually added to mtab, the system adds everything it mounts to it automatically
[10:18] <misterii> I have mp3s in a folder and I want to share them...
[10:18] <Zarephath> apolo: know nothing about it...
[10:18] <tritium> katarot: which driver?
[10:18] <apolo> :(
[10:18] <cohonen> aghhh god,, im down at 4Mbps
[10:19] <krang> Zarephath: usr/src is empty
[10:19] <NickGarvey> krang: sources aren't installed by default
[10:19] <vook> how would I go about making xmms (or bmp actually) load when I insert an audio cd rather than sound-juicer?
[10:19] <krang> I don't even need them, I just need to find the location of the kernel compiler
[10:19] <Zarephath> Yeah I know..which means that dmesg has no errors...it just isn't reading the line in fstab for some reason that I can't figure out...
[10:20] <apolo> tanks see you later
[10:20] <kingspawn> Zarephath: makes no difference if you remove all the options and just put defaults either?
[10:20] <Zarephath> krang: You have to install the kernel source before you can compile
[10:21] <WMIIII923> How do I configure mirrors in the installer? "The installer cannot figure out how to install the base system. No installable CD-ROM was found and no valid mirror was configured."
[10:21] <krang> that would make sense, but I still need to find the compiler executable
[10:21] <lamego> krang, erm did you installed the correct gcc already ?
[10:21] <Zarephath> kingspawn: yep...went back that route too...I just mounted from term and checked mtab..so it is adding the entry after mounting...pretty strange eh?
[10:21] <kingspawn> Zarephath: indeed. with which commandline did you mount it now?
[10:22] <krang> lamego: I have 3.4.5 as my kernel compiler, and 4.0.2 as my normal one, and I just want to know what to point export CC to
[10:22] <themachine> how can I find what ports I can use for apache?
[10:22] <krang> lamego : in order to use the older one as my standard gcc that is
[10:22] <dmb> krang, goto a terminal
[10:22] <Zarephath> kingspawn: Whatever the default gnome term is...just typed mount /media/winxp and there it was...
[10:22] <krang> dmb: done
[10:22] <dmb> and type in gcc, and press tab
[10:22] <lafferpt> hey
[10:22] <dmb> twice
[10:22] <dmb> and those are the versions of gcc
[10:22] <lamego> krang, export CC=/usr/bin/gcc-3.4 on my case
[10:23] <kingspawn> Zarephath: very strange indeed, since now it reads fstab and thinks everything is fine and dandy
[10:23] <lamego> are you sure its 3.5 ?
[10:23] <dmb> i use export CC=gcc-3.4
[10:23] <lafferpt> how can I get 2pcs with internet under ubuntu... just got this one going but the other one I don't have a clue how to configure it
[10:23] <krang> dmb, lamego: That's the stuff, just what I needed. thanks!
[10:23] <lamego> np :)
[10:23] <Zarephath> kingspawn: Excactly why I am calling on help from the community to make sure it isn't something I don't know about ntfs mounts,etc...
[10:23] <Zarephath> *Exactly*
[10:23] <dmb> also, sometime you might want to do that for c++
[10:24] <lafferpt> lamego ol ol
[10:24] <Homer> THE GOGGLES, THEY DO NOTHING!!!!!!! :(((
[10:24] <dmb> export cxx= g++-3.4
[10:24] <IdleOne> Homer, ?
[10:25] <krang> dmb: Good call, thanks
[10:25] <Homer> I baught anti-Goatse goggles, but they don't work :((
[10:25] <dmb> seriosly, evertime we have to compile stuff, configure searches for the same crap
[10:25] <dmb> and it takes so long
[10:25] <tritium> Homer: please stay on topic
[10:25] <dmb> it shouldn't have to check each time
[10:25] <kbrooks> dmb, what "same crap"?
[10:25] <rofl-waffle> Where are the rules in my firewall being set?
[10:25] <Zarephath> Anyone else in here seen a situation where fstab doesn't mount a drive (without any errors, or indication it attempted a mount) but mount from gnome terminal works just fine after boot completion
[10:25] <kingspawn> Zarephath: it doesnt even work when removing "noauto"? this is annoying :)
[10:26] <lamego> Zarephath, a network mount ? like an smb mount ?
[10:26] <dmb> kbrooks, it checks for the same includes, same basic compiler stuff, test programs etc...
[10:26] <kingspawn> Zarephath: man page says noauto must be mounted explicitly. but you have other "noauto"'s there..
[10:26] <Zarephath> kingspawn: Lemme see again...most cases I encounter are my own human error and not the OS :-)
[10:26] <dmb> there should be a common dataebase or something
[10:27] <O_Imortal> alo
[10:27] <Homer> ok then
[10:27] <Zarephath> lamego: No just /dev/hda1  /media/winxp ro,blah
[10:27] <kbrooks> dmb: well, there isn't. why? because life sucks
[10:27] <Homer> will using ubuntu make me a l33t hax0r?
[10:27] <dmb> Homer, no
[10:27] <ceteh> Homer: yes <-:
[10:27] <kbrooks> homer: no
[10:27] <Homer> :(
[10:27] <kbrooks> ceteh: no.
[10:27] <Homer> I don't know who to believe!
[10:27] <Zarephath> Only time and experience can do that..
[10:27] <ceteh> kbrooks: yes, yes, yes ;-p
[10:27] <kingspawn> Homer: of course. from ubuntu you can ping nasa.gov all night long, and they can't find you
[10:27] <ilian> hello
[10:27] <Chousuke> Homer: You don't want to bee a l33t hax0r.
[10:27] <dmb> you need to use lfs for that
[10:27] <Chousuke> -e

[10:36] <Tailsfan> Hello, When you load a Live CD, Are you supposed to have a floppy in there for the Live CD to recognize it
[10:36] <ilian> in consoile:)
[10:36] <Zarephath> kingspawn: I am getting ready to setup a NFS server..but the wiki is a bit dated...the new portmap only has OPTIONS="" according to the comment this lets it listen only to the loopback...what should I put between the quotes to enable the server to listen on my network 192.168.1.XXX?
[10:36] <gnomefreak> Tailsfan: no not to boot to live cd
[10:36] <Tailsfan> I meant for it to read it as in to save stuff on it
[10:36] <gnomefreak> Tailsfan: just make sure you are booting to cdrom in the bios
[10:36] <obli> So, when is dapper final? Will i be able to upgrade without and major hassle (i.e. keep settings, etc) when it's out?
[10:36] <onicrom> cool thanks
[10:36] <gnomefreak> hi Zarephath
[10:36] <kingspawn> Zarephath: I do believe so
[10:37] <gnomefreak> Tailsfan: that im not sure how you would do that with live disk
[10:37] <Tailsfan> I Do, but when I tried to save something onto a flopppy with teh Live CD loaded, it says it's not mounted
[10:37] <tonyyarusso> obli: Most likely June 1, although apparently we're still waiting on the "official" announcement, so consider that fairly reliable heresay at this point.
[10:37] <Zarephath> kingspawn: I don't follow exactly..you mean just put my lan ip in the quotes?
[10:37] <kingspawn> Zarephath: yeah
[10:37] <ilian> are there oly advanced users of ubuntu?

[10:38] <katarot> can someone recommend a wireless card i will just have to plug in or very easy to use
[10:38] <Zarephath> kingspawn: Ok...not the broadcast ip correct..just the subnet range?
[10:38] <cohonen> ilian, i would guess most are amertuers
[10:38] <kingspawn> jadaz87: look into the "shutdown" command

[10:39] <Tailsfan> Aap, Do you have the Ubuntu CDs?

[10:40] <Tailsfan> Oh, I See
[10:40] <Aap> oh wait, yes i have

[10:40] <gnomefreak> fluxt: how is that possible?
[10:40] <jadaz87> oh ok thank you
[10:41] <NickGarvey> I hacked the linux source code!!
[10:41] <NickGarvey> I can see it all I want!
[10:41] <Aap> i put the cd in my pc
[10:41] <gnomefreak> ilian: instructions are in your pm
[10:41] <fluxt> obli: kill -s 9 pid
[10:41] <obli> I'm part of the ripping crew that released ubuntu one week before release!
[10:41] <obli> oh, thanks
[10:41] <randolphf> hello I was trying to modify my grub parameters on service->boot but no application exists
[10:41] <fluxt> lol obli
[10:41] <gnomefreak> NickGarvey: everyone can view the source code
[10:41] <ilian> thank you gnomefreak
[10:41] <katarot> eem i got a broadcom chipset could i still use a 3com that uses a prism54
[10:41] <NickGarvey> gnomefreak: thats why it was funny
[10:42] <NickGarvey> or supposed to e
[10:42] <NickGarvey> be*
[10:42] <obli> fluxt> the window ressurected :P
[10:42] <Tailsfan> Aap, What CD did you get, Live or Install
[10:42] <Aap> install
[10:42] <fluxt> obli: gah, kill X ?
[10:42] <obli> I know i can solve this by restarting, but It's just plain annoying...
[10:42] <Tailsfan> There is your problem, The Live CD contains a firefox installer
[10:43] <fluxt> obli: you can't just close it or something novel like that?
[10:43] <obli> I'll just call it a day and get an extra hour of sleep :)
[10:43] <katarot> how can i put a chipset in my laptop
[10:43] <ilian> that was a really helpful site
[10:43] <Aap> it's in
[10:43] <Tailsfan> Aap, Let me get you a download of firefox
[10:43] <obli> nah, it comes back for whatever reason...
[10:43] <krang> anyone: if i make an alias "alias gcc=gcc-3.4" and then run a script like so: "./scripty", and the script then calls gcc, should it run gcc-3.4 or have I got it wrong?
[10:43] <ilian> thanx a lot I will try it tommorow...Going to bed now...
[10:43] <gnomefreak> Tailsfan: if hes using ubuntu he has firefox installed by default
[10:43] <Aap> Tailsfan, it's an EXE of FF on the cd
[10:43] <fluxt> obli: perhaps there is another process in the background that restarts it..
[10:43] <jpotex> Now I'm tierd of this. I can't get to the partition part in the ubuntu 5.10 installation. But if I but the disc into my sister's computer, it works just fine. Any ideas?
[10:43] <ilian> BYE ALL..It was nice to see you!
[10:44] <cohonen> peace
[10:44] <gnomefreak> Aap: if this is to get ff on windows please go to #ubuntu-offtopic
[10:44] <TheMinion> i've heard that linux can read but not write to ntfs partitions. i have an ntfs partition, how do i make linux see it?
[10:44] <Tailsfan> Oh, NVM Then, I did'nt even install
[10:44] <Aap> nono
[10:44] <obli> maybe, I'll just shutdown and hope not to see it when i wake up tomorrow ;p

[10:45] <Zarephath> gnomefreak: How would I specify a ip range in the portmap file?  <IP_ADDRESS>-<IP_ADDRESS> ?
[10:45] <Tailsfan> Are there any books to Ubuntu or will a linux book do?
[10:45] <gnomefreak> Zarephath: if you ask the room you might get a better answer

[10:49] <Aap> he returns an error : E: mozilla-firefox: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 127
[10:49] <_jason> krang: when you say ./scripty, you don't happen to be referring to a ./configure script do you?
[10:49] <gnomefreak> Aap: can you paste the /etc/apt/sources.list file to pastebin please
[10:49] <eirejah> could anyone help me out with some general tips on the procedure for how to mount a portable external usb hard drive with music thats in ms dos format to transfer it onto my ubuntu system ... please

[10:50] <Aap> yuyp
[10:50] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell MidnightDevil about xgl
[10:50] <krang> _jason: it wants the kernel compiler and the normal compiler to be the same
[10:50] <Aap> *done*
[10:50] <jpotex> Now I'm tierd of this. I can't get to the partition part in the ubuntu 5.10 installation. But if I but the disc into my sister's computer, it works just fine. Any ideas?
[10:51] <randolphf> gnomefreak?
[10:51] <gnomefreak> ok Aap looking down the list do you see the lines that start with deb hhtp?

[10:51] <gnomefreak> yw MidnightDevil
[10:51] <_jason> krang: well I would just temporarily mv /usr/bin/gcc and create a new /usr/bin/gcc that points to gcc-3.4.  THen when I was done, I would restore the old one
[10:51] <Aap> yup
[10:51] <gnomefreak> Aap: are there # infront of them?
[10:51] <Aap> at the "backports"
[10:51] <krang> _jason: so it is just one file then? I wasn't sure if that'd be safe
[10:51] <gnomefreak> Aap: tell me the lines say breezy somewher ein them also
[10:52] <_jason> krang: that should work
[10:52] <katarot> if the card needs chipset from the one my laptop uses would it not work
[10:52] <_jason> krang: /usr/bin/gcc is just a symlink
[10:52] <Aap> no breezy, only hoary
[10:52] <gnomefreak> Aap: ack
[10:52] <krang> _jason: oooooh, now it starts to make sense

[11:04] <xcel> oxez: shall i mkdir startup in -/.fluxbox?
[11:05] <xris_> When I log into ubuntu it doesn't start nautilus doesn't start on one of my accounts
[11:05] <gpierce> hello. all
[11:05] <mwe> krang: I think you need apt-get source install linux-image-$(uname -r)
[11:05] <gpierce> Is this an acceptable form for posting a problem with Dapper?
[11:05] <katarot> im going to buy a newcard hopefully it will work what if the chipsets are different would it still work
[11:05] <gnomefreak> gpierce: #ubuntu+1
[11:05] <gpierce> gnomefreak: thanks
[11:05] <gnomefreak> yw
[11:06] <gnomefreak> MidnightDevil: what do you need help with?
[11:06] <krang> oxez: apt-get install linux-2.6.12-9-386 said it couldn't find the package
[11:06] <wvelez> does anyone know if theres a how-to for compiz/breezy?
[11:06] <gnomefreak> wvelez: you can not install it on breezy
[11:06] <grit> i'm cannot mount my external drive more than once per restart, anyone got a howto or help? related to https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/eject/+bug/27380
[11:06] <krang> mwe: just saw that, thanks
[11:06] <mwe> krang: sudo apt-get source linux-image-$(uname -r)
[11:07] <wvelez> gnomefreak: gotta wait for dapper?
[11:07] <gnomefreak> krang: sudo apt-get install linux-image-2.6.12-9-386 iirc
[11:07] <gnomefreak> wvelez: yes
[11:07] <mwe> krang: but unless you're actually going to build the kernel yourself, getting just linux-headers-$(uname -r) is usually sufficient
[11:07] <gnomefreak> breezys lib and X cant handle it
[11:08] <krang> mwe: /usr/src is still empty, but it said the package was already the newset version
[11:08] <gnomefreak> now i brb since he didnt answer me
[11:08] <mwe> krang: what's the command you typed?
[11:08] <krang> apt-get install linux-image-2.6.12-9-386
[11:08] <p01n7> k well.. my gfx is Intel
[11:08] <mwe> krang: wrong command
[11:08] <mwe> krang: sudo apt-get source linux-image-$(uname -r)
[11:09] <krang> mwe: oops
[11:09] <p01n7> and glxgears runs very very slow

[11:11] <Paper> hi all, i have an ati radeon video card and i have 1 monitor and 1 tv plugged in it, i would like to know if its possible to play a movie on the tv and do something else on the monitor ?

[11:11] <Kirsch> i want to stop certain services from starting on boot, but i do not have x installed
[11:11] <MidnightDevil> i cant seem to add the right repository
[11:11] <Daskies> gnomefreak: I belive I installed the new firefox, but it could have been realplayer
[11:11] <MidnightDevil> to download compiz through apt
[11:11] <gnomefreak> MidnightDevil: for what?
[11:11] <gnomefreak> Daskies: are you on breezy
[11:12] <Daskies> gnomefreak: correct
[11:12] <fiveiron> why would I not be able to change the ownership of a file mounted on a fat32 volume?
[11:12] <MidnightDevil> xgl
[11:12] <krang> mwe: never mind, i typed "install" in there, it's working now. Sorry!
[11:12] <gnomefreak> MidnightDevil: if you are on breezy you can forget trying to get compwiz or xgl

[11:12] <mwe> krang: heh. don't worry
[11:12] <gnomefreak> Daskies: try killall gnome-panel
[11:12] <krang> mwe: thanks very much for the help!
[11:12] <frank__> fiveiron: because fat32 has no concept of ownership
[11:12] <MidnightDevil> oh :|
[11:12] <frank__> fiveiron: the filesystem doesn't support it
[11:12] <MidnightDevil> gnomefreak, any other way around?
[11:13] <Daskies> gnomefreak: No luck
[11:13] <Paper> i have an ati radeon video card and i have 1 monitor and 1 tv plugged in it, i would like to know if its possible to play a movie on the tv and do something else on the monitor ?
[11:13] <fiveiron> frank__: would there be a way to trick it into using a user other than root as the owner/group?
[11:13] <gnomefreak> MidnightDevil: not unless you upgrade to dapper and it isnt worth the trouble atm
[11:13] <frank__> MidnightDevil: you can make all the files be owned by another user yes
[11:13] <mwe> fiveiron: you can give options to mount to make all the files owned by someone or give it a umask
[11:13] <MidnightDevil> ok, how do i upgrade?
[11:14] <gnomefreak> frank__: not for xgl he cant :(
[11:14] <Zarephath> clear
[11:14] <mediated> How do you indicate what device to use when connecting via ssh?(wlan etc..)
[11:14] <Daskies> gnomefreak: Is there a way I can manually open it?
[11:14] <mwe> fiveiron: mount /dev/blah /mnt/whatever -o umask=0000 for world read/write perms
[11:14] <gnomefreak> im thinking of a command i had Daskies
[11:14] <MidnightDevil> can i upgrade my distro ?
[11:14] <MidnightDevil> :-)
[11:14] <frank__> gnomefreak: ? what about xgl?
[11:14] <Zarephath> Ok..so the wiki says to mount name.of.nfs.server but never mentions how to specify that? How do I find out the defautl name of nfs-user-server?

[11:23] <tezzer44> an old sound blaster
[11:23] <broam> tezzer44: can I have some more details please?
[11:23] <gnomefreak> Aap: no your upgrading to breezy you willl be fine
[11:24] <broam> tezzer44: and what's the model number on the card?  If it's CT4170 there is one gotcha
[11:24] <gnomefreak> upgrading to dapper may cause pc to smoke/flame/explode
[11:24] <p01n7> i must have a very old chipset then :  82810E DC-133 CGC [Chipset Graphics Controller]
[11:24] <tezzer44> it a sound blaster card i am running ubuntu 5.1
[11:24] <Majd> hey, i wanna start up clean, repartition everything, reinstall both windows and ubuntu...should i install ubuntu then windows or the other way around?
[11:24] <Daskies> Amaranth, gnomefreak: Sorry, and thanks.   How can I get it back?
[11:24] <broam> tezzer44: Do you have the card in your hands, or is it already in the machine?
[11:24] <p01n7> windows first
[11:24] <Amaranth> Daskies: right click on the panel, choose add to panel
[11:24] <tezzer44> its in the machine
[11:25] <tezzer44> i can open it up and take a look
[11:25] <broam> tezzer44: Hmm. What's exactly wrong with it? Not detected?
[11:25] <tezzer44> yep
[11:25] <Daskies> Amaranth, >_< I can't belive it was so simple
[11:25] <Majd> p01n7, windows allows me to choose partition size and create ext3 partitions?
[11:25] <broam> tezzer44: If you have a CT4170 (marketed as a SB16, but called "vibra16" in the drivers sometimes)
[11:25] <broam> tezzer44: CT4170 cards only have *1* DMA channel
[11:25] <SynapseRecall> whats a good rss news site?
[11:25] <p01n7> Majd, no.. but it allows you to choose partitons.. after that "Partition Magic" will do what you need on windows
[11:25] <soundray> Daskies: I think it's just 'mkdir ~/Desktop/Trash'
[11:25] <JulianoBastos> what's serial devices? ttys
[11:26] <broam> tezzer44: do you know how to use pastebin?
[11:26] <tezzer44> yep
[11:26] <AngryElf> what package do i need to run shell scripts.......i keep getting "dialog not found" errors when i try
[11:26] <broam> tezzer44: are you seeing anything soundcard related in your dmesg?
[11:26] <gnomefreak> soundray: he just removed it from panel
[11:26] <gnomefreak> AngryElf: ./script.sh
[11:26] <tezzer44> i am a compliet noob is that the bit at start up?
[11:26] <gnomefreak> AngryElf: are they yours?
[11:27] <Daskies> Wait, gnomefreak, I still don't see add/remove program
[11:27] <soundray> gnomefreak: wha'evva :)
[11:27] <broam> tezzer44: yes.  You can type `dmesg` at a terminal to get it to print out again
[11:27] <gnomefreak> Daskies: in applications>accecories you will see alacarte
[11:27] <tezzer44> ok
[11:27] <broam> tezzer44: it's quite long, be careful
[11:27] <tezzer44> ok
[11:27] <AngryElf> gnomefreak, no they're not
[11:27] <gnomefreak> AngryElf: sh file.sh
[11:27] <mediated> how do I list available wireless netoworks with iwconfig?
[11:27] <Daskies> gnomefreak, yes, but that doesn't have add programs
[11:28] <misterii> ifconfig
[11:28] <Daskies> gnomefreak, I mean the link that was at the bottom of applications that allowed you to install new programs
[11:28] <soundray> mediated: iwconfig eth0 scan (replace your wireless device)
[11:28] <gnomefreak> Daskies: open it up look in system tools is alacart and add it to system tools
[11:28] <tezzer44> what would a sound card sound like?
[11:28] <gnomefreak> Daskies: use synaptic ;) but it should be there
[11:28] <tezzer44> look*
[11:28] <broam> tezzer44: Not sure.  If you're unsure..you can pastebin the entire output
[11:28] <soundray> tezzer44: it should crunch when you step on it.
[11:29] <broam> soundray: heh ;)
[11:29] <tezzer44> ok can i ask for the pastebin link?
[11:29] <mediated> it said unrecognized request "scan"
[11:29] <broam> !pastebin
[11:29] <gnomefreak> !pastebin
[11:29] <ubotu> I guess pastebin is a site where you can post large texts and screenshots so you don't flood the channel. You can find it at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org - Install webboard for easy pasting from the gnome taskbar ,
[11:29] <tezzer44> heh

[11:29] <Daskies> gnomefreak, that option isn't in Alacarte

[11:31] <tezzer44> ok done http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10523
[11:31] <soundray> albacker, did you load the v4l module?
[11:31] <holycow> how does one enable xdmcp in dapper? login setup under system no longer has xdmcp and security tabs?
[11:32] <sethk> Daskies, it's possible, but more likely you just messed up the menus
[11:32] <gnomefreak> Daskies: im not sure what package that would be with
[11:32] <sethk> Daskies, try running it from the command line
[11:32] <gnomefreak> holycow: #ubuntu+1 please
[11:32] <wenko> anyone availabe to help me install SMB on ubuntu
[11:32] <holycow> k
[11:32] <Daskies> sethk: The command to do so is?
[11:32] <albacker> soundray, no; how do i load it ?!
[11:33] <albacker> soundray, i loaded with modprobe the spcaxx driver or something like it.. just like the tuto said.
[11:33] <sethk> Daskies, I use synaptic, which is one of a couple of programs that do it.  Try sudo synaptic
[11:33] <oxez> is it possible to upgrade to modular xorg (X11R7) without breaking the whole system? (in breezy)
[11:33] <broam> tezzer44: okay, got the URL.  going to look at this...brb in 5, wife has an aversion to touching raw meat so I get to do it
[11:33] <sethk> oxez, not recommended.  Not impossible, but not easy.
[11:33] <Daskies> sethk: I can acess synaptic just fine
[11:33] <oxez> Alright, guess I'll wai until dapper is final :o
[11:33] <tezzer44> heh i like the feel of raw meat
[11:34] <Vornicus> Trying to install Flyspray (universe/web), and aptitude says it's installed, but I can't actually find the setup system.  Does anyone know where I can find the setup system for flyspray, if it exists?
[11:34] <Daskies> gnomefreak, Didn't you have to command to run it manually?
[11:34] <albacker> soundray, are you here?
[11:34] <apeitheo> Does Ubuntu support mp3 playback? or will I need to do something special to get them working?
[11:34] <sethk> Daskies, I don't remember the command line version of the simpler installer.  But, if in fact you uninstalled the other one, you can reinstall it with synaptic
[11:34] <gnomefreak> Daskies: i use synaptic its easier ;)
[11:34] <timon-ubu> how to solve this? "Your home/.dmrc file has incorrect permissions and is being ignored. This prevents the default session and language from being saved. File sould be ownd by user and have 644 permissions"
[11:34] <kethinov> hi all, i previously compiled libgpod0 from source and "make install"d it. now when i try to apt-get install the latest libgpod0, i get dpkg: error processing (the libgpod0 deb), trying to overwrite (some file). what should i do?
[11:35] <Vornicus> timon-ubu: "chmod 644 home/.dmrc" should do it.
[11:35] <Daskies> sethk, gnomefreak: I did indeed unistall it
[11:35] <timon-ubu> thanks
[11:35] <Vornicus> and also "chown <user> home/.dmrc"
[11:35] <tonyyarusso> ubotu: tell apeitheo about mp3
[11:36] <p01n7> kethinov, drop into single user mode and install it?
[11:36] <sethk> Daskies, ok, now we know.  :)
[11:36] <broam> tezzer44: this a laptop?
[11:36] <tezzer44> no
[11:36] <gnomefreak> what is the package to uninstall?
[11:36] <soundray> albacker, I have trouble with my ADSL line atm, sorry. There is a number of modules called v4l*, you need to load one of them with sudo modprobe.

[11:36] <sethk> timon-ubu, or, cd $HOME; chmod 644 ./.dmrc
[11:36] <broam> tezzer44: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10523 right?
[11:36] <ubotu> somebody said iirc was "If I Remember Correctly", (If I remember correctly... )
[11:36] <tonyyarusso> timon-ubu: Since you don't have the permissions now, you might need sudo in from of those two commands from Vornicus.
[11:36] <sethk> timon-ubu, etc.
[11:36] <NickGarvey> ooo
[11:37] <albacker> soundray, do you have any idea about the full name of the module
[11:37] <soundray> albacker, look in /lib/modules/<yourkernel/kernel/drivers/media/video/ to see what's there.

[11:39] <p01n7> !runlevels

[11:39] <mcliber> si
[11:39] <broam> tezzer44: yeah, that's what I said...
[11:39] <mcliber> tonyyrusso
[11:39] <kethinov> p01n7, dpkg -i --force-overwrite (that deb) fixed it

[11:39] <p01n7> o
[11:40] <broam> tezzer44: it says it's a Creative ViBRA16C PnP. It seems like it should just find it...
[11:40] <tezzer44> ok
[11:40] <mcliber> gracias
[11:40] <mcliber> aloja
[11:41] <broam> tezzer44: does the card look like this?  http://ssl.linuxbeach.net/LinuxBeach/images/items/SB-CT4170.jpg

[11:43] <efarrar> fuuuck i keep exit
[11:43] <timon-ubu> hmm still same problem in home dir
[11:43] <NickGarvey> !language
[11:43] <ubotu> rumour has it, language is please watch your language; we try to be nice and help, but some of us don't like to see such things on our screen.
[11:43] <p01n7> linux is a product of faith :P
[11:43] <tezzer44> i thought you could do so in irc?
[11:43] <NickGarvey> no I'd say luck
[11:43] <misterii> I would want to add more folders to share, but xmule seems to be so amazingly complicated that I can not comprehend
[11:43] <broam> tezzer44: yeah.  I did send you a private message.
[11:43] <p01n7> faith in 'something else'
[11:43] <broam> tezzer44: what IRC client are you using?
[11:43] <NickGarvey> :)
[11:43] <tezzer44> x-chat

[11:44] <fulldisclosure> hi
[11:44] <smalldeus> Can somebody spare a momment please? :)
[11:44] <broam> smalldeus: I'll try, what's up?
[11:44] <smalldeus> Well, my DVD still plays chopy...
[11:44] <fulldisclosure> I installed ubuntu breezy in a toshiba, when I installed nvidia propietary driver, X is only at 800x600, and there is no way to put higher resolution
[11:44] <timon-ubu> ge mig kommandot igen tack
[11:44] <broam> tezzer44: Oh.  Bah.  Private messages are blocked on freenode.net
[11:45] <smalldeus> even after setting everything as it's suppose to be
[11:45] <tezzer44> ok
[11:45] <_jason> ubotu: tell fulldisclosure about fixres
[11:45] <tezzer44> do you have gtalk? or msn?
[11:45] <_jason> smalldeus: did you enable DMA on your drive?
[11:45] <broam> tezzer44: I have google talk
[11:45] <smalldeus> __jason: yes I have
[11:45] <NickGarvey> !pm
[11:45] <broam> tezzer44<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[11:45] <ubotu> Ask your questions in the channel so that other people may also benefit from answers received.
[11:45] <NotLarry> Ok, I want to start a session of screen on the box before anyone logs in, where do I put it?
[11:45] <_jason> smalldeus: ok thats the only I know of regarding choppy dvd, sorry
[11:46] <broam> NickGarvey: If he can't follow this conversation, no one will learn much
[11:46] <smalldeus> It does happen only every 10 or so seconds - thanks anyway :)
[11:46] <rysiek|pl> NotLarry: you can put it in /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh
[11:46] <itsonlyme> smalldeus, just got here, what are the specs on your computer?  Are you sure its fast enough?
[11:46] <NickGarvey> eh I wasn't really paying attention to the conversation
[11:46] <rysiek|pl> NotLarry: opr create your own script
[11:46] <NickGarvey> sorry about that
[11:46] <rysiek|pl> *or
[11:46] <DBO> Im having a bit of a problem with Firefox opening all external links (links sent to it from GAIM) as www.arizona.edu
[11:46] <nobusy> does anyone knows any similar program to bsplayer?
[11:46] <smalldeus> its a celeron 1200mhz 512mb ram
[11:46] <diederick> hi there
[11:46] <itsonlyme> that should do it.
[11:47] <SynapseRecall> DBO, it won't open them?
[11:47] <itsonlyme> Have you tried other DVD players?  Which one are you useing...
[11:47] <TheMinion> i need to run the old 1.0.7 version of firefox for something, it's still on my computer because i never removed it, all i did was follow the instructions on installing the new version of firefox. how can i run the old version?
[11:47] <_jason> DBO: paste the string that appears in system > preferences > preferred applications for firefox
[11:47] <fulldisclosure> _jason, but in xorg.conf is 1024x768 specified, but it appears at 800x600
[11:47] <mattwestm> how do I change a drives owner?
[11:47] <DBO> _jason, "firefox %u"
[11:47] <_jason> fulldisclosure: did you try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg?
[11:47] <smalldeus> I'm using the totem and mplayer
[11:47] <nobusy> please does anyone knows any similar program to bsplayer?
[11:47] <_jason> DBO: change it to firefox %s
[11:47] <fulldisclosure> yes
[11:48] <DBO> what does the s mean?
[11:48] <fulldisclosure> _jason, and put it at 1024, deleting 800x600 lines
[11:48] <broam> tezzer44: you alive
[11:48] <_jason> DBO: string I believe, but I am only guessing
[11:48] <fulldisclosure> but with nvidia driver, it appears at 800
[11:48] <NotLarry> k, time to give it a try:)
[11:48] <sethk> mattwestm, you don't, really.  what are you trying to do?
[11:48] <bet0x> how y reconfigure my locales on shell and X _
[11:48] <bet0x> ?
[11:48] <DBO> _jason, worked, thanks
[11:48] <gnomefreak> TheMinion: why would you need to run the old ff? (just curous)
[11:49] <TheMinion> gnomefreak: because rhapsody.com doesn't support firefox 1.5 on linux
[11:49] <mattwestm> sethk: I have an external hard drive with the owner as root and I want to be able to write to it with my normal account
[11:49] <gnomefreak> TheMinion: good reason
[11:49] <TheMinion> gnomefreak: did you figure it was for that?
[11:49] <itsonlyme> I have no more ideas.... Sorry
[11:49] <gnomefreak> TheMinion: no i wouldnt think they wouldnt support ff1.5 on any platform
[11:49] <sethk> mattwestm, youcan change the file ownerships or permissions to allow that.  -R is a recursive change, so if you do it to the root with -R you'll change everything on the drive
[11:50] <misterii> anyone here use xmule??
[11:50] <TheMinion> gnomefreak: ah, well, do you know how i can run the old firefox?
[11:50] <fulldisclosure> _jason, any idea?
[11:50] <_jason> fulldisclosure: did you try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg?
[11:50] <smalldeus> To the fela with eMule problems - I use it :)
[11:50] <itsonlyme> Is there a PowerPC / Apple Hardware channel?
[11:50] <gnomefreak> TheMinion: you keep it on system just not sure how to run it. iirc you are adding a symlink from old to new ff
[11:50] <tonyyarusso> TheMinion: It's something about reversing the set alternative that you did towards the end of the 1.5 setup.  I don't remember exactly how it works, but that's what you need to look into, to narrow the scope of your search anyway.
[11:50] <fulldisclosure> _jason, yes, and by hand, and deleting 800x600 mode lines in xorg.conf, it still appears at 800x600
[11:51] <fulldisclosure> _jason, it seems to be 'magic'
[11:51] <misterii> smalldeus, welll, how can I add more directories/share more files in Xmule?
[11:51] <TheMinion> gnomefreak: well, i still want 1.5 to be default and everything
[11:51] <mattwestm> sethk: there are no files on the drive
[11:51] <_jason> fulldisclosure: sometimes when users run that command they move the cursor over 1024x768 and press enter, you have to rpess space abar to select it and then enter.  Did that happen by any chance?
[11:51] <Cashel> anyone know what provides the libxfce4panel-1.0 library in the 64 bit repos?
[11:52] <smalldeus> misterii: Isn't there a folder choser built in? You just click the folders to mark them for sharing?
[11:52] <gnomefreak> TheMinion: if i knew the difference between the commands you can make a launch for 1.0.7
[11:52] <itsonlyme> fulldisclosure, does your monitor support higher then 800x600, and have you ctrl alt backspaced, since you changed the config file?  Sorry for the easy question if you have...
[11:52] <misterii> not xmule
[11:52] <JoshRA> Anyone know why my DVD playback is jumpy. Video lags behind audio
[11:52] <smalldeus> misterii: in prefferences/directories
[11:52] <_jason> JoshRA: did you enable DMA?
[11:52] <fulldisclosure> itsonlyme, yes is supported, I said this only happens with nvidia driver, not with nv for example
[11:52] <gnomefreak> JoshRA: there is a fix for that on the restricted site
[11:53] <gnomefreak> !restricted
[11:53] <ubotu> restricted is, like, totally, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats  Most of the formats listed here can be replaced by !FreeFormats
[11:53] <sethk> mattwestm, then change the permissions on the directory
[11:53] <LordMelkor> is there anyway to change the default brightness of XV
[11:53] <sethk> mattwestm, the mount point, while the drive is mounted
[11:53] <LordMelkor> my normal monitor settings are really dark so i use xgamma to adjust it but xv doesnt get changed
[11:53] <misterii> smalldeus,  no... there's just incoming and temporary directories to define
[11:54] <smalldeus> misterii: what version do you have?
[11:54] <JoshRA> I already did that gnomefreak and it did not help
[11:54] <tonyyarusso> TheMinion: You might stil be able to launch 1.07 while 1.5 is default by pointing a launcher to the binary in (maybe) /usr/lib/mozilla/mozilla-firefox/firefox (or something like that).
[11:54] <LordMelkor> any ideas
[11:54] <gnomefreak> JoshRA:  you clicked on the part that said if your playback is jumpy click here?
[11:55] <JoshRA> yes i did the DMA already
[11:55] <TheMinion> tonyyarusso: ok, thanks
[11:55] <JoshRA> it was already enabled
[11:55] <smalldeus> misterii: mine has shared folder choser
[11:55] <fulldisclosure> _jason, I remove 800 and 640 mode lines, and select only 1024, but it still appears at 800x600
[11:55] <fulldisclosure> _jason, is crazy...
[11:55] <misterii> what are you using smalldeus?
[11:55] <NickGarvey> anyone know how to help me with freenx?
[11:56] <smalldeus> misterii: aMule CVS Snapshot:
[11:56] <smalldeus>  Mon Jan  9 07:02:13 CET 2006
[11:56] <itsonlyme> Is the Dapper delay statement going to be in this channel, #ubuntu+1, or the website?
[11:56] <misterii> maybe I'll download that one
[11:56] <gnomefreak> itsonlyme: it will be announced in the topic
[11:57] <misterii> how do I uninstall xmule
[11:57] <gnomefreak> misterii: suod apt-get remove xmule
[11:57] <mcquaid> the delay was already officially announced wasn't it?
[11:57] <gnomefreak> sudo even
[11:57] <smalldeus> misterii: I got it with automatix - this version of emule can be a bit crashy.. crasjed on me twice now
[11:57] <Alexi5> linux is very educational
[11:57] <gnomefreak> mcquaid: not that i know of
[11:57] <itsonlyme> thanks...  I was hoping that was just a nasty digg.com rumor.
[11:57] <Alexi5> i am learning some shell scripting
[11:57] <krang> Anyone: I just installed the linux source, but /usr/src is empty. Any ideas?
[11:57] <mcquaid> no? the release schedule shows 6/6/6
[11:58] <gnomefreak> the site still says its not been yet
[11:58] <LordMelkor> can default xv brightness settings be adjusted
[11:58] <gnomefreak> mcquaid: that is in hope of the release
[11:58] <gnomefreak> delay
[11:58] <andrewski> i knew the delay was evil!
[11:58] <mcquaid> dapper the devil's own distro!
[11:58] <sdo> hi,
[11:58] <andrewski> dapper demon
[11:58] <Cashel> krang: sure you didnt just install the headers?
[11:58] <sdo> just wondering if anyone here has successfully compiled kviec on ubuntu ?
[11:59] <krang> i used apt-get source linux-$(uname-r)
[11:59] <sdo> *kvirc
[11:59] <Cashel> krang: should be there then..
[11:59] <mcquaid> don't really care about the delay personally, dapper is already good enough
[11:59] <misterii> and tell me about fixres xDD
[11:59] <krang> cashel: that's what i was thinking. Any way to check what happened? it downloaded ~50MB of stuff
