[17:19] <ASULutzy> Xman: You still want to do hd for grub, man grub
[17:19] <slaya|style> ejsilver26, try sudo useradd -G audio root
[17:19] <chunkmuffins> does anyone know how to get the sound working for ZSNES?
[17:19] <polishpaul> lennad: do you see it up top right?
[17:19] <Gnea> ejsilver26: then that's probably why it foobared. there is a certain procedure that you need to follow when doing a distribution upgrade like that.
[17:19] <polishpaul> lennad: you should see a list of networks
[17:20] <Gnea> ejsilver26: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardyUpgrades
[17:20] <lennad> NO
[17:20] <Xman> ASULutzy: when i tried hd it says requested device not found
[17:20] <ejsilver26> slaya|style: It's already there.
[17:20] <lennad> i cannot see my wireless connection
[17:20] <chunkmuffins> Does anyone know how to get sound running for ZSNES?
[17:20] <ejsilver26> Gnea: So... fubar, no fix?
[17:20] <slaya|style> ejsilver26, then do what Gnea suggest
[17:20] <polishpaul> lennad: do you see an icon for networks in that corner? there shoudl be something, you can enable it there
[17:20] <Gnea> ejsilver26: backup data, reinstall
[17:20] <lennad> yes
[17:21] <lennad> i see
[17:21] <Gnea> ejsilver26: in the meantime, you COULD try reinstalling alsa
[17:21] <ejsilver26> Gnea: That's the message that I got before I upgraded.
[17:21] <ejsilver26> (The one on the page you suggested)
[17:22] <Gnea> ejsilver26: okay..
[17:22] <linduxed> hmmm, i ran the fah6 file to install folding but it only resulted in a syntax error
[17:22] <bullgard4> '~$ xrandr; LVDS connected 1280x800+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 0mm x 0mm.' Was bedeutet hier "+0+0"?
[17:22] <lennad> polishpaul: I cannot see the wireless connection the in network settings list
[17:22] <ejsilver26> Gnea: Oh, I know I *could* always reinstall... but this is LInux... that should *not* be necessary. ;)
[17:22] <Gnea> ejsilver26: can you pastebin your output of the dmesg command please?
[17:22] <Gnea> !pastebin
[17:22] <bullgard4> '~$ xrandr; LVDS connected 1280x800+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 0mm x 0mm.' What does here mean "+0+0"?
[17:22] <Nutzebahn> Hi. Gparted loads, but won't stop scanning for devices. I think it may be because of some changes someone told me to make to fstab, I don't know how to fix it. Here is m fstab file: http://pastebin.com/pastebin.php?dl=d2609a3bf

[17:23] <lennad> does anyone know why Wireless Connection is Not Shown In the Network Settings?
[17:23] <polishpaul> lennad: are the drivers installed? do you see anything when you say ifconfig?
[17:23] <Pici> bullgard4: You may want to ask that in #xorg as well, if you aren't getting an answer here.
[17:23] <lennad> polishpaul: which dirvier?
[17:23] <zzorn> Firefox crashes when I try to open the add-ons menu, and is generally acting up also.  I guess some broken add-on?  How do i uninstall them manually?

[17:27] <lennad> does anyone know why Wireless Connection is Not Shown In the Network Settings?
[17:27] <Nutzebahn> Alright, legend 2440.
[17:27] <devil> hello ladies
[17:27] <KiK1> hello
[17:27] <devil> what's good
[17:28] <polishpaul> lennad: what do you see under "connections?"
[17:28] <jarjarsphyn1> i have a java install and its a .bin, i clicked on it and it says cannot find encoding
[17:28] <Nutzebahn> I restored the backup fstab, so I am testing it now.
[17:28] <polishpaul> hey guys, i have an issue with the network not working on bootup (laptop wireless) - networking is already in /etc/init.d/  any ideas why it doesn't start? I have to restart the networking service everytime i boot up to get network
[17:28] <mayavi> can i assume ubuntu 8.04 (AMD.64bit) will work seamlessly on my dell Inspiron 1520 (Core 2 Duo)  ?
[17:28] <devil> what's wrong with java I used to install java with .bins
[17:29] <jarjarsphyn1> how do i install .bins
[17:29] <SIRD> good afternoon, gents and gentettes. i'm trying to find one command that will move the files of one certain type (.nsf) from many different directories into one directory. can anybody help?
[17:29] <KiK1> jarjarsphyn1: try alt + F2 and lauch with console option
[17:29] <devil> you have to cd to the directory it's in
[17:29] <devil> chmod a+x java.bin
[17:29] <lennad> polishpaul: Wired connection, Point to point connection
[17:29] <Gnea> ejsilver26: okay, there are a few things we can try before throwing the towel in...
[17:29] <devil> sudo ./java.bin
[17:29] <jarjarsphyn1> devil: i did
[17:29] <jarjarsphyn1> what is the "." for
[17:30] <slicky> jarjarsphyn1, chmod +x .bin
[17:30] <lennad> polishpaul: the wireless connection is not in the list
[17:30] <devil> ./ to execute
[17:30] <ejsilver26> Gnea: Never say "die"... we must fight the good fight and WIN by all means necessary! :)
[17:30] <mysticdarkhack> hey all
[17:30] <szedar> hey
[17:30] <Gnea> ejsilver26: let's start by re-routing the pci table - add pci=routeirq  to your bootup sequence
[17:30] <Nutzebahn> I will restart and then try sudo blkid.
[17:30] <ejsilver26> Gnea: Where do I do that?
[17:30] <szedar> looking for somebody from poland ?
[17:30] <mysticdarkhack> you know what, I think ubuntu or maybe getdeb should have a reposiotory of the new software instead having us download each one to install
[17:31] <devil> once you have it install and wanna have it plugged in to your browser you have to link it to your browsers plugin folder
[17:31] <devil> you know there is easier ways to install java nowadays :|
[17:31] <jarjarsphyn1> devil: hoh
[17:31] <jarjarsphyn1> how
[17:31] <devil> what are you using
[17:31] <Gnea> ejsilver26: when you boot it up and it gives you the option to press ESC within 3 seconds, press ESC - you can then edit the kernel line of the first kernel - find the line, go to the end of the line (use the 'end' key) and add pci=routeirq, press enter, then b (to boot it)
[17:32] <cool> any god linux  games thats rpg or mmo?

[17:32] <jarjarsphyn1> firefox, but it says cannot find pluggin and the only button is manual install

[17:32] <SIRD> can anybody help me in finding a suitable command? i don't mean to be a bother...
[17:32] <devil> WHAT are you using
[17:32] <devil> ubuntu or what >
[17:32] <chazco> Hi... what does "lahf_lm" in cpuinfo mean?
[17:32] <jarjarsphyn1> ubuntu
[17:32] <ejsilver26> Gnea: Alrighty... I'll do that and then come back. Anything else while I'm there?
[17:32] <zzorn> hm, turns out firefox problems were just because of no disk space.  Better disk space warnings could be useful..
[17:33] <jarjarsphyn1> ubuntu 7.04
[17:33] <Gnea> ejsilver26: that should do it for this run
[17:33] <devil> run sudo apt-get install sun-java5-plugin
[17:33] <devil> that should fix everything
[17:33] <ejsilver26> Alrighty... Let me write that down and then I'll be back.
[17:33] <devil> should unless you totally screwed everything up

[17:36] <Sidd> I've got Ubuntu 8.04, can anyone recommend some good tools (e.g. wxWidgets) to create GUI frontends for my C++ applications? I have no clue how to use 'glade'..
[17:36] <Wallgod> Hi All.... can anybody pls help me with enabling wireless on a compaq laptop with ubuntu 8.04
[17:36] <Sidd> Wallgod: Which model?
[17:36] <Wallgod> Sidd, Hi...
[17:36] <Wallgod> Sidd, its Compaq Pressario Wide Screen
[17:36] <devil> sid try qt designer
[17:36] <Sidd> Wallgod: Waht is the model number? I've got v3633au
[17:36] <Sidd> devil: Thanks
[17:36] <Wallgod> Sidd, Oh god.. how do i know that
[17:36] <Sidd> wallgod: On the top right hand corner of the screen it should say something like "Presario v3000"
[17:37] <Vlet> Is there a way to run a 32 bit binary on a 64 bit system without setting up a chroot?
[17:37] <Wallgod> Sidd, yes it says Presario V6000
[17:37] <Sidd> wallgod: On the left side it says widescreen, right? Look on the right side, does it say anything?
[17:37] <Wallgod> Sidd, yes it says Presario V6000
[17:37] <Sidd> Wallgod: Ok, I'm guessing you have an atheros or broadcom card; mine says V3000
[17:37] <Wallgod> Sidd, its Broadcom
[17:38] <Sidd> Ok, I've got the instructions for you which I use every time I install ubuntu :p
[17:38] <Wallgod> Sidd, I enabled some restricted driver and installed fwcutter
[17:38] <Sidd> Wallgod: That doesn't work, didn't work for me :p
[17:38] <Sidd> Wallgod: You ahve to use the ndiswrapper way which works 100%, let me just find it
[17:38] <Sisyphos_> http://youtube.com/watch?v=-QSpGHO1ED8
[17:38] <[-Mabus-]> which broadcom is it?
[17:38] <Wallgod> Sidd... thank u so much

[17:39] <Wallgod> Sidd, will it work with 8.04
[17:39] <Sidd> Wallgod: Those are really easy instrcutions and you can use it on Hardy too, make sure you do the "hardy bug fix" at the bottom
[17:39] <Sidd> Wallgod: Yes
[17:39] <Wallgod> Sidd, ok thanks so much i m going to try this
[17:39] <devil> back
[17:39] <devil> anyways wtf is going on
[17:39] <Sidd> Wallgod: No problem, It'd probably work
[17:39] <ndumac> Does anyone know why in ubuntu, ifconfig uses 00-00-00-00-00-00 instead of 00:00:00:00:00:00

[17:40] <Karan> http://rafb.net/p/PWJ7kT96.html
[17:40] <sun> ojl43jt lt

[17:41] <Karan> runescape == fail
[17:41] <devil> jarjar is java working ?
[17:41] <jarjarsphyn1> ino, but i just want to make sure my java works
[17:41] <jarjarsphyn1> no
[17:41] <ejsilver26> Gnea: Ok, step 1 complete. What's next?
[17:41] <jarjarsphyn1> it used to work, but now it doesnt
[17:41] <dfgas> is there any programs that are good like frontpage for linux?
[17:41] <Gnea> ejsilver26: can you hear sound now?
[17:41] <Sidd> Does anyone know which package I should install to get qt-designer?
[17:41] <ejsilver26> Gnea: Nope.
[17:42] <ejsilver26> Gnea: Sec, let me double check.
[17:42] <devil> dfgas I use bluefish
[17:42] <devil> sidd do youhave add remove programs
[17:43] <devil> it's in there under programming
[17:43] <Sidd> devil: Ok, thanks much
[17:43] <devil> that's where I installed it from
[17:43] <ejsilver26> Gnea: Nope. Tried all the options in Sound Preferences
[17:43] <devil> there are a lot more programs too for what you need
[17:43] <Clinteger> yay im the 1337th person lol
[17:43] <Gnea> ejsilver26: open a terminal and type alsamixer, is anything muted (MM)?
[17:43] <devil> clinteger ?
[17:44] <Sidd> Anyone here having problems with Hibernation/Suspension on Compaq/HP laptops? I've got a fix ;)
[17:44] <ejsilver26> Gnea: Nope. Nothing muted, all at 100%
[17:44] <Sidd> ejsilver26: What speakers/soundcard do you have?
[17:44] <Gnea> ejsilver26: heh, are you sure the speakers didn't get blown?
[17:45] <Gnea> Sidd: write a howto :D
[17:45] <ejsilver26> Sidd: SIS AC'97 (SI7012). Internal speakers in my notbook.
[17:45] <Sidd> Gnea: I did, already, :D
[17:45] <Gnea> lol
[17:45] <devil> ejsilver what is wrong ?
[17:45] <ejsilver26> Gnea: Earphones don't work either, and they worked before the upgrade.
[17:45] <Karan> does anyone know what's wrong?
[17:45] <ejsilver26> devil: No sound after upgrading form 7.10 to 8.04
[17:46] <Sidd> ejsilver26: Would you happen to have a toshiba or dell laptop?
[17:46] <ATA_Dark_Shadow> greetings, i got 2 working systems on 1 pc, if i chroot into the 2nd, it works well, i reboot and start the 2nd install, and i cant install anything nor do dpkg-reconfigure. What would be the points where i need to look for errors?
[17:46] <Gnea> ejsilver26: hrm... can you boot a livecd and hear sound from it?
[17:46] <devil> you know that is a common bug
[17:46] <ejsilver26> Sidd: Yup. Dell Inspiron 1000 (please stop laughing...)
[17:46] <tkach> I'm adding a network printer (Canon MF311) but the driver isn't listed among the canon models list.
[17:46] <ejsilver26> Gnea: That was one thing I havn't done yet.
[17:46] <lennad> does anyone know why Wireless Connection is Not Shown In the Network Settings?
[17:46] <Sidd> ejsilver26: Dw, I've got a 1500 or something which I stopped using because the fan was clogged and overheated often, even with ubuntu.. I remember it had an AC97 which worked well with 6.10
[17:47] <Nutzebahn> Hello. What sudo blkid said does not match fstab, what should I do? Do you think there is any way to have it rewrite fstab properly?
[17:47] <devil> ej have you tried sudo apt-get update and upgrade then sudo apt-get --reinstall install alsa
[17:47] <ejsilver26> Sidd: It worked perfectly with 7.10. Aparently other people have had the same issue and have fixed it. I've been following what it has said on various sites, but nothing has worked.
[17:48] <Gnea> devil: i think you're thinking about aptitude, since apt-get doesn't support the --reinstall option
[17:48] <Sidd> ejsilver26: Did you do an upgrade through synaptic or a clean install?
[17:48] <ejsilver26> devil: I have done those commands, yup. Several times.
[17:48] <artagnon> I want to moiunt my lvm parititions on livecd
[17:48] <artagnon> how do I do it?
[17:48] <ejsilver26> Sidd: Synaptic. It told be it was available and I went for it.
[17:48] <devil> hmm
[17:48] <Gnea> ejsilver26: i would try the livecd, just to make sure the hardware still works right
[17:49] <mysticdarkhack> ejsilver26 it would be a good idea or option to just install hardy fresh and all might work
[17:49] <artagnon> ubuntu livecd doesn't seem to have lvm support
[17:49] <Sidd> ejsilver26: Try the Hardy LiveCD and see if the stuff in the "examples" folder play correctly
[17:49] <ejsilver26> Gnea: I still have my 7.10 live CD. I should probably do that. perhaps I will.
[17:49] <devil> you probably have to change your kernel
[17:49] <devil> a kernel that supports your sound card
[17:49] <ejsilver26> mysticdarkhack: True... but that would mean admiting defeat! Can't do that.
[17:49] <Gnea> ejsilver26: or just make an 8.04 cd and try that ;)
[17:49] <devil> or use the kernel you had before ?
[17:49] <mysticdarkhack> although kernel 2.6.24 doesn't like my machine but I manage to compile 2.6.24
[17:50] <mysticdarkhack> I meant 2.6.26
[17:50] <tkach>  I'm adding a network printer (Canon MF311) but the driver isn't listed among the canon models list. It "recommends" the "Bj-5 Foomatic" driver, should I just go with that?
[17:50] <Sidd> ejsilver26: Actually, that'd be more like getting a fresh army? :p
[17:50] <Sidd> tkach: No
[17:50] <Gnea> tkach: try it and see if it prints the test page
[17:50] <Sidd> tkach: I have an Canon Mf8180C and it recommends that. Your printer isn't supported, no matter how much you try :-(
[17:50] <bonespur> hi..i just connected my camera usb to my ubuntu box..but it is not detected..any thoughts on how to get it working??
[17:50] <Sidd> tkach: Mine had no drivers available for linux anywhere at all
[17:51] <tkach> Sidd so I'm SOL with that
[17:51] <Sidd> tkach: the bj series are completely different
[17:51] <Sidd> tkach: What's SOL?
[17:51] <ejsilver26> Gnea: If the live CD for 8.04 works, than it's something to note.
[17:51] <devil> I would try different models til I found the best one then configure it the best I can
[17:51] <ejsilver26> Sidd: A replacement army still needs to be trained... bah.. this analogy is dying fast.
[17:51] <tkach> Sidd Hopefully my HP Deskjet 3940 is supported (sol is s*** outta luck)
[17:51] <lennad> does anyone know why Wireless Connection is Not Shown In the Network Settings?
[17:51] <lennad> does anyone know why Wireless Connection is Not Shown In the Network Settings?
[17:51] <ndumac> hey does anyone know how to convert mac address format from dashes to colons
[17:52] <danand> bonespur - type tail /var/log/messages to see if the system picked up you plugging in the device
[17:52] <Gnea> ejsilver26: yeah
[17:52] <ejsilver26> Alright... time to DL 8.04 CD...
[17:52] <Gnea> tkach: hrm, Sidd is right... http://openprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Canon-MF3110_3111
[17:52] <lennad> does anyone know why Wireless Connection is Not Shown In the Network Settings?
[17:52] <hyperair> are there any kernels in the repo that support high mem?
[17:52] <Sidd> tkach: Yes, HP is generally more supported, damn, I could wirelessly print on Vista but now I gotta get my sister to print for me :-p
[17:52] <Gnea> !repeat | lennad
[17:52] <devil> ej try sudo update-initramfs -k 2.6.24-12-generic -c
[17:52]  * ejsilver26 hates reinstalling... hense the move from WinXP to Linux again..
[17:53] <ejsilver26> devil: cool... that's new...
[17:53] <Sidd> Gnea: Yeah, there is no driver there for most/all MF printers :-\
[17:53] <ejsilver26> What does it do?
[17:53] <aguitel> how make numlock on in startup ?
[17:53] <mysticdarkhack> hyperair not that I know of but unless trying to compile 2.6.26
[17:53] <bonespur> danand: i doubt it did..what do i do now??
[17:53] <hyperair> mysticdarkhack: wasn't that the intrepid kernel? why not the hardy kernel?
[17:54] <tkach> Alright, thanks Gnea and SIdd
[17:54] <devil> when you upgraded it probably got the wrong kernel that should fix it
[17:54] <Nutzebahn> Hello. What sudo blkid said does not match fstab, what should I do?
[17:54] <danand> bonespur - did you see any messages relating to you plugging in the usb device in the output of tail /var/log/messages ??
[17:54] <Sp0tter> Has anyone ever fully automated an ubuntu hardy install?  I've read all the docs i can find on it, and they say you can, but everytiem i try (edit the isolinux.cfg, add my preseeding file, remaster the iso with a new keyring)  all i get is nothing.  Nothing ahppens, nothign will install.
[17:54] <ejsilver26> devil: Ah.. ok... sec... can't kill the system, right? :)
[17:54] <devil> try that then update upgrade and reinstall alsa
[17:54] <devil> then reboot
[17:55] <m0u5e> there needs to be a system package integrity checker
no it not intrepid kernel, I compile my kernel. The newest kernel has the latest update and new modules
[17:55] <m0u5e> to see if a package has been installed incorrectly, or if the files in an app have become corrupted
[17:55] <kavOOr> hi !I have a problem with shutdown applet. Please have a look --  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=872390
[17:55] <ejsilver26> devil: : Can't find the module... ?
[17:55] <devil> or you can select a different kernel at the grub boot screen
[17:55] <Munkey01> I am having trouble installing, the installation program hangs at a black screen right before the installation begins
[17:56] <devil> have you tried that
[17:56] <ejsilver26> devil: Nope. Haven't tried that.
[17:56] <devil> reboot and try another kernel
[17:56] <ejsilver26> ok.
[17:56] <Wallgod> Sidd, Hi there... its still downloading ... looks like it ll work
[17:56] <hyperair> mysticdarkhack: ah. so you're just going for the latest kernel, not using ubuntu's kernel sources at all
[17:56] <danand> bonespur - did you get any output from typing "tail /var/log/messages" in a terminal??
[17:57]  * ejsilver26 has been informed that the bananna bread is ready... so *that* is why I got married.... ;)
[17:57] <Sidd> Wallgod: Yeah, the HP servers are 1000x faster than the compaq ones though :p
[17:57] <ejsilver26> BRB... rebooting.. new kernel...
[17:57] <s0ap> does anyone know how to run twin?
[17:57] <Munkey01> I am having trouble installing, the installation program hangs at a black screen right before the installation begins
[17:57] <Wallgod> Sidd, nice...
[17:57] <Wallgod> Sidd, how old r u
[17:57] <Sidd> Woah, since when did adults use Ubuntu?
[17:57] <devil> run twin ?
[17:57] <Sidd> Wallgod: 16..
[17:57] <Wallgod> Sidd, Woah!!!

[17:58] <Wallgod> Sidd, I m twice your age
[17:58] <Gnea> Sidd: lol, i'm twice your age, we use ubuntu at work
[17:58] <Wallgod> Sidd, how does one go about understanding Ubuntu or Linux so that it becomes intuitive to solve issues
[17:58] <Sidd> Lol, didn't realise that people actually used it at work :-p
yeah, hardy 2.6.24 doesn't like my machine
[17:59] <KintaRo> selam
[17:59] <Wallgod> Sidd, Gnea I use Ubuntu at work too
[17:59] <twocarlo_> me too
[17:59] <Sidd> Wallgod: Intuitive to solve issues? You just need to know how to use google correctly, and in itself, google is an extremely powerful tool for finding fixes, etc
[17:59] <Gnea> yeah, it took some time to evolve and mature, but it's there now
[17:59] <genii> Wallgod: Lots of hours reading manpages, mostly
[17:59] <ProN0ob> lol, why do you use ubuntu at work ?
[17:59] <thebishop> is anyone running S3 Unichrome graphics here?
[18:00] <Draecon> test
[18:00] <Wallgod> genii, what is manpages
[18:00] <z_> How can I add the path "/usr/bin/" into my .bashrc file? 'PATH$=/usr/bin'
[18:00] <ProN0ob> Draecon, test failed.
[18:00] <DRebellion> Wallgod, open up a terminal, and enter:  man man
[18:00] <ndumac> Does anyone know why ubuntu lists my MAC address as more then the standard 12 characters ?
[18:00] <DRebellion> ndumac, perhaps it's in hex?
[18:00] <aguitel> how make numlock on in startup ?
[18:00] <Sidd> Wallgod: For example, if I want to search for a broadcom driver patch/solution I'd search for: "broadcom compaq presario ubuntu", (without the quotes) instead of the average user's query which'd be something like "How do I install drivers on on ubuntu for my compaq presario v3633au"
[18:00] <Wallgod> DRebellion, thanks
[18:00] <genii> Wallgod: manpages   are the Manuals  pages to the commands on a system. The help pages as it were. Usually something like:  man commandname        gives it to you
[18:01] <ndumac> DRebellion: i don't think so, the first 9 are correct, but it gives more
[18:01] <lightorbit> ProN0ob, Why not?
[18:01] <Wallgod> Sidd, ok...
[18:01] <Gnea> z_: shouldn't have to, it's built into bash..
[18:01] <Wallgod> Sidd, direct topic
[18:01] <spx2> in a google search,google only lets one view first 1000 pages of results,how does one get to the other results pages that are not in the first 1000 ?
[18:01] <Wallgod> genii, thanks
[18:01] <m0u5e> why is that sometimes the quickfind (through typing in a nautilus window) won't work
[18:01] <new_linux> hey peeps, could anyone help me figure out why i keep getting a # Segmentation fault (core dumped)Segmentation fault (core dumped)
[18:01] <Sidd> spx2: Just curious, why woudl you want to do that? :p
[18:01] <polishpaul> how do i check in debian if a service is running - like "service networking status" ?
[18:01] <m0u5e> thats very frustrating for me, has there already been a bug of this published?
[18:01] <Gnea> ProN0ob: what's it to ya?
[18:01] <fbc> my usb mouse stopped working. What daemon do I restart?
[18:01] <ProN0ob> lightorbit, dunno, its not normal, normally business people need to open alot of microsoft office documents and stuff
[18:02] <spx2> Sidd: because I would like to see those too,maybe my result is in there
[18:02] <ndumac> DRebellion: ie, it gives 00-18-de-71-0e-12-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx
[18:02] <ProN0ob> Gnea, its the teh haxxor os for me xD
[18:02] <Wallgod> Sidd, i m sure u r being modest by giving all credit to Google
[18:02] <s0ap>  im having this issue: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=753045 - a little help someone?
[18:02] <lightorbit> thats why ubuntu comes with openoffice ;)
[18:02] <DRebellion> ndumac, that's odd
[18:02] <ndumac> DRebellion: instead of just the first 9
[18:02] <ProN0ob> Gnea, oh, and for servers
[18:02] <ndumac> yeah
[18:02] <cr0w> hi
[18:02] <cr0w> i have a problem..

[18:07] <DRebellion> Otacon22, could be that cdrom0 is holding things up
[18:07] <Gnea> cr0w: please do not PM me again.
[18:07] <cr0w> the port of Transmission..is open
[18:07] <DRebellion> Otacon22, try, sudo eject /dev/cdrom0
[18:08] <cr0w> when i open trasmission..the connection slows down ...
[18:08] <Gnea> cr0w: yes, it's bittorrent, it WILL slow your connection down.
[18:08] <Sydero> well that's obvious
[18:08] <kalyan> aoe is running for single player .. but no network options for multiplayer
[18:08] <Gnea> heh
[18:08] <cr0w> Gnea .. no .. the download in trasmission is slow ..
[18:08] <Sydero> cr0w: you should set your maximum upload and download rates in transmission
[18:08] <DRebellion> kalyan, did you check the appdb?
[18:08] <cr0w> 2kb..3kb..
[18:08] <kalyan> ya
[18:08] <DRebellion> kalyan, no info there?
[18:08] <Sydero> cr0w: you're flipflopping
[18:08] <Gnea> cr0w: you're complaining to the wrong place.
[18:08] <Sydero> cr0w: be clear
[18:09] <kalyan> no info on multiplayer
[18:09] <Sidd> Cr0w: Use utorrent in Wine. Trust me, from my experience it is 20000x better
[18:09] <Sydero> lol
[18:09] <cr0w> mmm
[18:09] <DRebellion> Sidd, cr0w, there is no need to use wine
[18:09] <Otacon22> DRebellion, busy
[18:09] <Sydero> that's among the stupidest advice I've heard
[18:09] <cr0w> no no i don't use wine..
[18:09] <Sydero> transmission is fast
[18:09] <Sydero> if you have the port open
[18:09] <Sidd> DRebellion: Of course, you need Wine to run uTorrent, do you not?
[18:09] <DRebellion> Otacon22, =/
[18:09] <twocarlo_> hehehe
[18:09] <Gnea> cr0w: but you will if you want it to be faster
[18:09] <cr0w> mmmm
[18:09] <cr0w> an other bit torrent client ?
[18:09] <Sydero> stop giving him bad advice
[18:09] <DRebellion> Sidd, why would you use wine when there are perfectly good linux equivalents
[18:10] <DRebellion> cr0w, deluge, azureus...
[18:10] <Zillios> I'm new to ubuntu and was hoping someone could answer me a question about wine?
[18:10] <Sydero> transmission is great
[18:10] <Sidd> DRebellion: Because they are not equivalent in speed.
[18:10] <cr0w> it even is transmission that they give problems to me
[18:10] <chazco> Hi.. i've moved a HDD from one laptop to another... Ubuntu still seems to work, am i safe to use it or should i reinstall?
[18:10] <Sydero> I'm telling you, if the download is slow, his port is probably not open
[18:10] <Nutzebahn> Hello. What sudo blkid said does not match fstab, what should I do?: http://pastebin.com/pastebin.php?dl=d55580635
[18:10] <cr0w> you prefer !?
[18:10] <DRebellion> Sidd, nah
[18:10] <kalyan> got them .. i will try
[18:10] <Otacon22> DRebellion, i opened the cd with a piece of iron
[18:10] <Otacon22> XD
[18:10] <cr0w> what me councils?
[18:10] <DRebellion> chazco, you should be fine
[18:10] <DRebellion> Otacon22, o.0
[18:10] <chazco> Sounds good :) Aside from wifi it works fine :)
[18:10] <Gnea> cr0w: try what Sidd suggested. if that doesn't work, come back.
[18:11] <Sidd> DRebellion: what's wrong with Wine/uTorrent anyway? They're both free software, and its not like I'm forcing him to convert to Vista, right?
[18:11] <DRebellion> Otacon22, that's just asking for trouble.
[18:11] <kalyan> thanks  DRebellion for the link]
[18:11] <cr0w> azureus he is heavy..
[18:11] <Gnea> we use and support wine here.
[18:11] <twocarlo_> thats true sidd:
[18:11] <cr0w> i try deluge ..
[18:11] <Sydero> you guys don't understand
[18:11] <DRebellion> Sidd, wine is incomplete.
[18:11] <Sydero> Tranmission is fast
[18:11] <Sydero> changing clients won't help
[18:11] <DRebellion> Sydero, exactly.
[18:11] <Sydero> you have to know how to setup it up properly
[18:12] <Gnea> Sydero: then show cr0w what to do.
[18:12] <danand> Nutzebahn - don't give a download link, just post the plain pastebin address to your info :)
[18:12] <Sydero> he's ignoring me
[18:12] <Gnea> that's not our problem.
[18:12] <ejsilver26> Sidd: What's wrong with Vista?  *duck and cover*  He he he
[18:12] <Sidd> Sydero: Yeah, but from my experience it is easier to set up uTorrent. The higher your upload cap, the higher your download speed.
[18:12] <Zillios> I installed a simple mud client using wine and i've noticed a significant difference that how it is with my xp box. I was wondering wine worked well with heavy games like WoW, or Warcraft3:FT
[18:12] <Munkey01> I am having trouble installing, the installation program hangs at a black screen right before the installation begins
[18:12] <tkach> I'm using the HP device manager to install drivers for my printer. I can see my printer under Printer setup, but in the HP device manager it can't see it on the network.
[18:12] <DRebellion> Sidd, plenty of clients for linux have setup wizards that do this.
[18:12] <trashguy> Hey, the 32bit desltop version support pae?
[18:12] <Sidd> ejsilver26: I never said anything was wrong with it, I just said I wasn't converting any user :p IMO, Vista is great, as is any other operating system out there
[18:13] <DRebellion> Zillios, apparently, wine runs wow very well.
[18:13] <Sidd> DRebellion: So why don't you show them to cr0w instead of blocking me from explaining how to use uTorrent with your claims?
[18:13] <DRebellion> Sidd, I mentioned two: deluge and azureus
[18:14] <ejsilver26> Sidd: True... I like them all. I just can't run them all. I'd preferto triple boot, but that's not happening at this point.
[18:14] <ZmAY> can someone help me connect phone to PC, to transfer data
[18:14] <Sidd> DRebellion: Fair enough, but I was explaining how to increase speed using uTorrent, which I found easy to do (I used to get 3-10KB/s, and a simple trick got me to 100-200KB/s, believe it or not)
[18:15] <b0ef> ZmAY: how about using bluetooth?
[18:15] <deadbeef> Hi, I have a Lenovo ThinkPad laptop with a flash memory card reader. I have an old 64 mb card that works (tested on multiple readers on Windows) and a 1GB card. The weird thing is, Ubuntu's driver mounts the 1 GB card, but it can't see the 64 mb card. Anyone ever see this?
[18:15] <twocarlo_> Sidd: True... I like them all i also use both of it
[18:15] <trashguy> anyone know, the 32bit  desktop version use PAE?
[18:15] <ZmAY> b0ef: have it on phone, but not on pc
[18:15] <Sydero> :/
[18:15] <Sydero> then use a usb cord
[18:15] <Gnea> trashguy: that's a microsoft thing. 32bit supports up to 4GB.
[18:15] <Nutzebahn> ok danand.
[18:16] <Sidd> ejsilver26: Hah, I find dual/triple/etc booting a little strange, it seems a bit "impure" :-p
[18:16] <Zillios> DRebellion, its probably the only reason why I haven't changed my main OS to ubuntu, fear of having problems with it. Is there anything I should be aware between WoW and wine? How about ventrilo?
[18:16] <Sydero> trashguy: PAE makes your PC unstable
[18:16] <trashguy> Gnea, microsoft...
[18:16] <Nutzebahn> Hello. What sudo blkid said does not match fstab, what should I do?: http://pastebin.com/d55580635
[18:16] <ejsilver26> Sidd: It's like sex... oh, nevermind... ;)
[18:16] <trashguy> its physical address extension
[18:16] <Sidd> trashguy: I used Vista with PAE, which worked decently but I have 4GB of RAM and I use 32bit Ubuntu instead of 64bit
[18:17] <deadbeef> anyone know why ubuntu's card reader driver won't mount a 64 mb SD card, but will mount a 1 GB sd card?
[18:17] <trashguy> Its deff nto a Microsfot thing
[18:17] <Zillios> sidd, is all your ram being detected by the os? (just curious)
[18:17] <Sidd> Trashguy: I don't know about you, but to me, it just seems a little more supported and live, as well as snappier since it doesn't have to load executables which are larger, but that just might be my paranoia
[18:17] <Sidd> Zillios: No, only 3.1GB is
[18:17] <SNuxoll> Sidd: the desktop kernel doesn't have PAE enabled
[18:17] <SNuxoll> Sidd: you need the server kernel for that
[18:17] <Sidd> Gnea: I'm pretty sure at boot time there is a flag like PAE=4GB or something which you can add to recognize 4GB
[18:17] <trashguy> yea if u dont run PAE you will only see 3.5gb
[18:17] <Gnea> trashguy: okay, you're right about that - i was thinking of the PAE workaround in m$ earlier - sorry. but 4GB is the limit to 32bit ubuntu.
[18:18] <SeveredCross> Is there a separate PAE kernel for Ubuntu?
[18:18] <naftilos76> hi guys! is there an app to edit file extensions - relations? (Which program open which file type)???
[18:18] <Zillios> I think 4gb is the limit for any 32bit os
[18:18] <Sidd> SNuxoll: For Ubuntu, right?
[18:18] <SNuxoll> Sidd: yes
[18:18] <trashguy> Not if u ryn PAE
[18:18] <SNuxoll> naftilos76: right click a file, select properties
[18:18] <Sidd> trashguy: Why would you need that much anyways? :p
[18:18] <deadbeef> VM?
[18:19] <Sydero> 4 GB limit is due to the 32bit architecture
[18:19] <trashguy> I dunno if I read correctly i think the server version comes with PAE
[18:19] <SNuxoll> naftilos76: there should be a "open with" tab in the property window
[18:19] <Zillios> I use 4gb for vmware, i'm actually running ubuntu on vmware :X
[18:19] <twocarlo_> had anyone here use ubuntu on msi wind? have you found flaws
[18:19] <SNuxoll> trashguy: yes, it does
[18:19] <Gnea> trashguy: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=853678
[18:19] <Sydero> I thought PAE was unstable and not used...
[18:19] <trashguy> same deal
 what if i want to erase the relation of a file type to an app???
[18:19] <eivindgl> I'm having problems with what appears to be an old bug with libnss-ldap and udev (stall at boot) in hardy. It's written in the ubuntu wiki that i should set "bind_policy soft" in /etc/libnss-conf , this file does not exist in hardy (I've created it, but it doesn't help. anyone who knows a fix?
[18:19] <trashguy> 64bit is just too uncompatible with mopst stuff right now
[18:20] <Sydero> :/
[18:20] <wols> trashguy: not really
[18:20] <trashguy> Most my FreeBSD serevrs run a 32bit kernel with PAE
[18:20] <Sydero> can't you run 32-bit apps in the 64bit os?
[18:20] <wols> Sydero: yes
[18:20] <SNuxoll> trashguy: 64bit's only really incompatible with flash and java
[18:20] <SNuxoll> trashguy: everything else works as expected these days
[18:20] <trashguy> Well
 what if i want to erase the relation of a file type to an app???
[18:20] <deadbeef> will you see a performance increase in a 64-bit OS when running 32-bit apps?
[18:20] <trashguy> wine wont compile right due to lack of sane 32bit libs
[18:21] <jazzkutya> java? then how do i run java on a 64bit ubuntu server?
[18:21] <SNuxoll> naftilos76: please don't repeat
[18:21] <Sidd> deadbeef: From what I saw, no
[18:21] <deadbeef> :(
[18:21] <Gnea> deadbeef: won't know until i try it :)
[18:21] <trashguy> I have some custom patches for wine and various other things that justw otn compile right in 64
[18:21] <SNuxoll> naftilos76: all you should have to do is select the app from the "open with" tab and click "remove"
[18:21] <Sidd> deadbeef: Why the sad face? :p
[18:21] <jazzkutya> i mean i run it from time to time but after hearing this i don't know how :)
[18:21] <Flannel> jazzkutya: java works fine on 64bit
[18:21] <deadbeef> I wanted a free performance gain
[18:21] <deadbeef> lmao
[18:21] <Sydero> 64bits apps are faster on a 64-bit processor, but 32-bit apps will be just as fast as on a 32bit processor
[18:21]  * ejsilver26 waits patiently for the download to complete... 33 min remaining... *sigh*
[18:21] <Gnea> ejsilver26: go make a pizza or something ;)
[18:22] <SNuxoll> Sydero: not necesarily
[18:22] <Sydero> yeah, somtimes it's slower
[18:22] <Sydero> sometimes*
[18:22] <ejsilver26> Gnea: I have other ideas, but it may take longer than 30 min... ;)
[18:22] <SNuxoll> Sydero: it all depends if the app can take advantage of 64bit math really
[18:22] <deadbeef> so 64-bit chips still have all the 32-bit framework? i.e., no translation is done to 32-bit instructions?
[18:22] <Sydero> yeah
[18:22] <Sidd> deadbeef: lol, the only difference is seen when you do something which requires intense calculations; the 64-bit version would run faster than the 32bit (From what I've read)
[18:22] <Gnea> hehe
[18:22] <twocarlo_> well explain Sydero
[18:22] <SNuxoll> deadbeef: yes
[18:22] <deadbeef> cool
[18:22] <Ab3L> hello (^_^)y
[18:22]  * ejsilver26 ponders a nap...
 i'm sorry...where is the remove button????
[18:22] <trashguy> I guess ill just install 32bit server and add desktop
[18:22] <Sydero> yeah = agree
[18:22] <deadbeef> I thought it added an extra layer of indirection
[18:22] <trashguy> seems to be the sanest way
[18:22] <jazzkutya> Flannel: i use java un 64bit but SNuxoll said there is some problem with it
[18:22] <SNuxoll> deadbeef: all x86_64 is x86 with 64bit support tacked on
[18:22] <SNuxoll> naftilos76: are you using Ubuntu or Kubuntu?
[18:23] <Sidd> Trashguy: Why do you need that 4GB extra anywys?
[18:23] <deadbeef> neato
[18:23] <trashguy> Sidd, why not?
[18:23] <deadbeef> it's nice for a VM
[18:23] <Nutzebahn> This is important.
[18:23] <trashguy> its plugged in
[18:23] <trashguy> Sidd, i run a  few vms from time to time
[18:23] <SNuxoll> more than 4GB is also useful when you are doing some heavy compiling
[18:23] <thebishop> Firefox closes unexpectedly when opening flash files, and it works after i reload the session.. what's up with that?
[18:23] <wols> trashguy: from what I remember there is no WINE 64bit version. ie WINE is not a 64bit windows
 Sorry man, don't mind me.....i found it...
[18:23] <deadbeef> what are the minimum requirements in terms of ram for XP?
[18:23] <deadbeef> like 256 mb?
[18:23] <Gnea> the memory is plugged in, it's just going to wate if it's not being used - might as well throw it in a kegger
[18:24] <SNuxoll> deadbeef: they say 256mb
[18:24] <deadbeef> how well does it run on 512?
 thanks!
[18:24] <wols> deadbeef: ##windows for windows questions
[18:24] <Sydero> 256 is not min
[18:24] <trashguy> wols, yes, but im trying to recompil;e my own patched version
[18:24] <SNuxoll> deadbeef: but it's more like 1GB these days, with all the extra stuff you have to run
[18:24] <Sydero> 256 is recommended
[18:24] <Sidd> trashguy: I don't know, I've got 4GB (3.1Gb recognized) and I use VirtualBox with XP with 2GB memory quite well
[18:24] <deadbeef> I see
[18:24] <SNuxoll> naftilos76: no problem
[18:24] <deadbeef> just wondered how much to give it
[18:24] <deadbeef> in a VM
[18:24] <Sydero> give it 512
[18:24] <Sydero> well depends
[18:24] <Sydero> on what you run in it
[18:24] <SNuxoll> naftilos76: that's what I'm here for :)
[18:24] <deadbeef> yeah
[18:24] <deadbeef> Visual Studio and Photoshop
[18:24] <deadbeef> probably a gb
[18:24] <SNuxoll> deadbeef: visual studio needs a GB alone
[18:24] <geek_inn2> hey devels
[18:25] <deadbeef> I ran it on 512 a while back
[18:25] <geek_inn2> which room points to ibex
[18:25] <deadbeef> slow but it worked lol
[18:25] <SNuxoll> geek_inn2: #ubuntu+1
[18:25] <mibocote> gjdoc is failing on uninstall, is there a way to force it? it is preventing other packages from being installed
[18:25] <Sydero> mibocote: What does it say?
[18:26] <Sydero> so you tried sudo apt-get remove gjdoc
[18:26] <mibocote> Sydero: fails post-removal script, exit status 2
[18:26] <Wallgod> Sidd, Hi again... I have followed the instructions and rebooted. The network icon shows 76% connected
[18:26] <deadbeef> anyway, back to my question: does anyone know why Ubuntu won't mount a 64 MB SD card, but will have no problem mounting a 1 GB SD card? (the 64 MB one works, for sure)
 Just imigrated from fedora 8-9 kde to ubuntu 8.04....don't mind me....
[18:26] <Wallgod> Sidd, But it doesnt connect to the internet
[18:26] <wols> !errors < deadbeef
[18:26] <Wallgod> Sidd, Do u think i m doing something wrong
[18:26] <Sidd> Wallgod: That's strange
[18:26] <trashguy> compiling own kernel for the loss its nice not having to recompile every update
[18:26] <deadbeef> !errors
[18:26] <m0u5e> so anyone know why my fast find for nautilus isn't working?
[18:26] <wols> !errors | deadbeef
[18:26] <mibocote> Sydero: I did try that, that is what caused the problem to start
[18:26] <Sidd> Wallgod: No, mine says 35% and it works
[18:27] <Wallgod> Sidd, Oh....
[18:27] <Sydero> try reinstalling it :P
[18:27] <m0u5e> does anyone have problems with fast find for nautilus
[18:27] <Wallgod> Sidd, that means the installation has gone right
[18:27] <Sydero> then uninstalling
[18:27] <m0u5e> where yout ry to type a file name so it selects that file name
[18:27] <m0u5e> but nothing happens?
[18:27] <Sidd> Wallgod: Yeah, 76% is the signal strength
[18:27] <Wallgod> Sidd, maybe i should do something about the manual config
[18:27] <deadbeef> ah, it's not really an error wols. "nothing happens" when you insert the 64 MB card, there's nothing to paste :o unless there is a log somewhere? I dont' know where though
[18:27] <Sidd> Wallgod: Yeah, check if you need a specific proxy to be used on firefox, etc
[18:28] <Wallgod> Sidd, i had first put WPA 2 Personal and then WEP
[18:28] <mibocote> Sydero: I tried reinstalling it and it gives the same error
[18:28] <Dedi> anyone managed to get ubuntu-modules running with a custom compiled kernel? (what i did yet: http://tinyurl.com/5szfrd )
[18:28] <Wallgod> Sidd, do u think its got something to do with that
[18:28] <Sidd> Wallgod: No, if you're connected, that should have nothing to do with it
[18:28] <Sidd> wallgod: What does it say when you open Firefox?
[18:28] <cratel> I like the hidden taskbar in Gnome (Hardy) but it takes too long to show up and appears too slowly when I put my cursor over it. Any way to make that appearing faster?
[18:28] <Wallgod> Sidd, couldnt find server etc..
[18:28] <RxDx> was the problem that reduces the hd life-time already fixed?
[18:28] <Wallgod> Sidd, the stuff it shows when we connect without the internet connection working
[18:29] <trashguy> cratel do you have an Nvidia card?
[18:29] <Sidd> Wallgod: Ok, you probably need the proxy configuration
[18:29] <Wallgod> Sidd, ok
[18:29] <Sidd> Wallgod: Is the computer you're on right now connected through the same internet?
[18:29] <trashguy> nvidias 2d drivers fro 8000 and 9000 series fail hardcore :(
[18:29] <Wallgod> Sidd, yes it is
[18:29] <Wallgod> Sidd, but now its thru the wired one
[18:30] <orangefly> i got the new compiz and now i have no bars on top of my windows....any ideas....???....
 do you happen to know subtitleeditor app? if i right click on a str file the respective app opens up but it does not load the subtitles...if i manually open the app and use the open menu and stuff...it open subtitles just fine....any idea why this is happening? it even happens when i try to open a susbtitles file through the terminal...that is... if i type "subtitleeditor file.str" the only thing that happens is that the app
[18:30] <naftilos76> opens up but no subtitles file is opened...
[18:30] <Sidd> Wallgod: Ok let's try this: Go to Firefox-> Edit -> Preferences -> Advanced (The gear icon) -> Network (it's a tab) ->  "Settings" button
[18:30] <cratel> trashguy: no, it's Intel. video is fast and 3D accel works fine.
[18:30] <Wallgod> Sidd ok
[18:30] <Sidd> Wallgod: Do that and tell me what option is selected (e.g. direct connection to the internet, etc)
[18:31] <Sydero> Can DRI be enabled for intel chipsets?
[18:31] <ejsilver26> What is a good IRC program for Linux? I'm just using pidgin, but it has no features....
[18:31] <wols> Sydero: yes
[18:31] <Sydero> xchat
[18:31] <Sydero> even for 855GM :)?
[18:31] <bicz> ejsilver26: xchat
[18:31] <wols> Sydero: should, yes
[18:31] <Wallgod> Sidd, it says use the system proxy settings
[18:31] <Gnea> ejsilver26: xchat is good for a gui, but i prefer irssi in a terminal
[18:31] <ejsilver26> xchat? Oh ya.. I used to use that a while ago... :)
[18:31] <Sydero> hmmm
[18:31] <m0u5e> does anyone know what I am talking about when I say my nautilus quick find doesn't work?
[18:31] <Sidd> wallgod: Strange, then you're not using a proxy
[18:31] <Sidd> Wallgod: Did you do the hardy bugfix at the end of the file?
[18:31] <Wallgod> Sidd, yes i did
[18:32] <Sidd> Wallgod: Hmm, try rebooting and trying it
[18:32] <Wallgod> Sidd, i rebooted as well
[18:32] <geek_inn2> and comment if you like it
[18:32] <Sidd> :s
[18:32] <Wallgod> Sidd, when it says 76% connected... doesnt it mean everything is alright
[18:32] <Wallgod> Sidd, even the icon changed to the wireless one'
[18:32] <Sidd> Wallgod: Yeah, but then it should be connected to the internet
[18:33] <Wallgod> Sidd, shud i try agian and see
[18:33] <Sidd> Wallgod: Yeah, and unplug the ethernet from that laptop
[18:33] <Wallgod> Sidd, yes...
[18:34] <m0u5e> does anyone know what I am talking about when I say my nautilus quick find doesn't work?
[18:34] <bonespur> hi...my ubuntu hardy is not recognizing the USB camera device??
[18:34] <m0u5e> or at least, it occasionally craps out
[18:34] <bonespur> any ideas how to fix it?
[18:34] <m0u5e> i've had this on multiple installs... anyone can help me?
[18:34] <CatEater> what's a good guide to making extra mouse buttons work? i keep finding irrelevant old stuff
[18:34] <m0u5e> CatEater: if you find out, please let me know as well
[18:34] <naftilos76> does anybody know why typing in a terminal "subtitleeditor file.srt" does not load the subtitles but instead open up just the app "subtitleeditor"?
[18:34] <m0u5e> CatEater: though, it should work by default in firefox3
[18:35] <RichW> What channel do I use for Ubuntu PPA/Package Building?
[18:35] <m0u5e> naftilos76: maybe subtitleeditor doesnt take the parameter <filename>
[18:35] <m0u5e> naftilos76: just try dragging dropping / go to file>open
[18:35] <ben__> hey guys
[18:35] <m0u5e> naftilos76: just try dragging dropping / go to file>open

[18:36] <ben__> how can i connect to my windows home network?
[18:36] <m0u5e> ben__: Places>Network
 i suppose this is the case - it is not taking .srt as a parameter...I'm wondering why because this worked back in fedora 8...That is where i came from!

[18:42] <der|kunstler> hi, how do I disable the gnome-screensaver from running when I set my computer to sleep. ?
[18:42] <Mr_Giraffe> ogzy, install envy and use it to convigure your stuff
[18:42] <Mr_Giraffe> worked for me, anyway
[18:42] <wols> Mr_Giraffe: do not tell people to use envy
[18:42] <Mr_Giraffe> why not?
[18:42] <wols> Mr_Giraffe: if you must, envyng, NEVER envy
[18:43] <Mr_Giraffe> er, yeah, that one
[18:43] <wols> cause it breaks your ubuntu
[18:43] <mudzereli> Can anyone link me to some troubleshooting information for connecting to the internet? i'm unable to access wirelessly or wired
[18:43] <ogzy> Mr_Giraffe: envy is for ATI and Nvidia cards? Mine is intel
[18:43] <ejsilver26_> There.. that is better.
[18:43] <Mr_Giraffe> oh, whoops :P
[18:43] <Mr_Giraffe> hmm
[18:43] <guerra> #ubuntu-br
[18:43] <wols> ogzy: what doy ou see then why it's not working?
[18:44] <wols> mudzereli: what network chips do you have
[18:44] <ogzy> wols: glxinfo | grep render output says direct render is No :)
[18:44] <Mr_Giraffe> anybody know anything about ESD and stuff?
[18:44] <wols> ogzy: that is no reason. that is the result
[18:44] <wols> mudzereli: what does sudo ifconfig -a  say?
[18:44] <Mr_Giraffe> cause i'm trying to use sidplay and whenever i try it tells me that /dev/dsp is locked
[18:45] <ogzy> wols: ok i sadi what i did though, i installed xserver-xorg-intel xserver-xgl and loaded dri and xgl at xorg
[18:45] <crdlb> ogzy: uninstall xserver-xgl
[18:45] <wols> ogzy: xgl is not necessary IIRC
[18:46] <acp_> mudzereli: for wifi https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/
[18:46] <crdlb> and is what is causing "direct renering: no"
[18:46] <crdlb> rendering*
[18:46] <ogzy> crdlb, wols : i had tired it, it is not working with or without it
[18:46] <crdlb> ogzy: get rid of it, then we can examine the real problem
[18:46] <Kcaj> How restart an apache2?
[18:46] <ejsilver26_> 8 min left on the download! :)
[18:47] <Pici> Kcaj: sudo invoke-rc.d apache2 restart

[18:47] <Kcaj> ok tks
[18:48] <eddyMul> I'm running Vista in KVM in Hardy. Vista seems to have trouble getting IP in a user-mode networking. Can somebody help?
[18:51] <deadbeef> Is there a Windows-like "Device Manager" in Ubuntu? Graphical or console-based, it doesn't really matter.
[18:51] <KrimZon> does anyone know how to disable incremental backups for rdiff-backup?
[18:52] <KrimZon> ie just use it to copy to the backup location the files which have changed
[18:53] <mahesh> help guys>>> iam an engineering student iam interested in doing linux projects
[18:53] <wamty> i'm sure the ubuntu homepage would give me a listing of compatible modems?
[18:53] <kravlin> wondering how to fix sudo in hardy heron?
[18:54] <TiredWolf> kravlin: how's it broken?
[18:54] <mahesh> help guys>>> iam in the final yr of course so keen in doing projects
[18:54] <kravlin> TiredWolf: I finally got around to updating and it just gives me a wrong password error.
[18:54] <mahesh> help guys>>> iam an engineering student iam interested in doing linux projects
[18:55] <Starnestommy> mahesh: that's a statement.  We won't be able to help much unless you ask an actual question
[18:55] <Sp0tter> :)
[18:55] <deadbeef> Does Ubuntu have a "device manager" like Windows?
[18:55] <Pici> mahesh: This is the Ubuntu Support channel, do you have a question?
[18:56] <Karan> deadbeef: you looking for driver info?
[18:56] <Kcaj> How can I search for a particular folder?
[18:56] <deadbeef> I need to see a list of the hardware that Ubuntu detected.
[18:56] <TiredWolf> kravlin: it's wrong password, not you're not in the sudoers file?
[18:56] <mahesh> Starnestommy:: iam interested in developing opensource packages
[18:56] <Kcaj> nvm
[18:57] <Starnestommy> mahesh: do you have any questions to ask?
[18:57] <kravlin> TiredWolf: shouldn't be. I just simply upgraded. It gives me a wrong password error. I'm sure it's the right password though. Otherwise i wouldn't have been able to log on.
[18:57] <mahesh> Starnestommy:: how can get the details about that opensource development projects, this is my question now??
[18:58] <Starnestommy> mahesh: it depends on the project
[18:58] <deadbeef> mahesh: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_source
[18:58] <deadbeef> hf
[18:58] <TiredWolf> kravlin: it's a pretty reasonable assumption to make. one thing i can think of, although it seems pretty improbable, is that you have "rootpw" in your sudoers file, which implies that sudo asks for the root password rather than your password
[18:58] <TiredWolf> i have no idea why that would have happened though
[18:58] <stillrain> Hi
[18:58] <spiel_mit_feuer> im trying to set up ubuntu for voice commands
[18:59] <mahesh> Starnestommy:: ok tell me wat are the kinds of projects??for my knowledge
[18:59] <kravlin> TiredWolf: Possible. lemme check.
[18:59] <xFlipx> question: looking for a stable replacement for rhythmbox that will allow me to stream internet radio
[18:59] <TiredWolf> kravlin: you can't unless you go into recovery mode, as /etc/sudoers isn't accessible to users
[18:59] <Karan> mahesh: what programming skills do you have?
[19:00] <kravlin> TiredWolf: I needed to do some repartitioning anyway. I think i'll boot up with a livecd and try from there.
[19:00] <newbyx86> lol
[19:00] <deadbeef> Karan, so uh, is there a way to view my devices (either a GUI or a console-based solution is fine)
[19:00] <newbyx86> I wish I could still program :/
[19:00] <mahesh> karan i have skills in c,c++,java,
[19:00] <Pici> !ot
[19:00] <mahesh> karan i have skills in php,html,asp
[19:00] <Zillios> Out of curiosity, would I be able to come here for assistance with installing compiz on ubuntu? Or does the hardy version come with it already? (newbie question-sorry)
[19:00] <newbyx86> C++ is a winner.
[19:00] <Pici> Please move non Support conversations to #ubuntu-offtopic , thank you.
[19:00] <Karan> mahesh: so, if you truely are 'skilled' in ALL those languages
[19:01] <Karan> you should have no problem picking up an opensource prjoect
[19:01] <Karan> and working on it
[19:01] <entropy51423> C++ is probably the most prominent language in use today
[19:01] <Karan> deadbeef: sorry no idea actually
[19:01] <genii> deadbeef: The most complete hardware results comes from: sudo lshw     but maybe pipe it to a file for study, extremely long. PCI:     lspci     USB:  lsusb
[19:01] <mahesh> Starnestommy:: dont mistake me!! in the gnome site they told to chat on IRC to get ideas for projects
[19:01] <Pici> !ot | Karan mahesh entropy51423
[19:01] <erlend_> How do I implement programs from a live-cd that boots on its own into my Ubuntu?
[19:01] <deadbeef> thanks!
[19:01] <Karan> -_-
[19:02] <eie> what softwares in ubuntu can be used to play this device http://www.technisat.com/index381f.html?nav=PC_products,en,76-174
[19:02] <genii> deadbeef: welcome
[19:02] <eie> i used progdvb in windowsxp
[19:02] <xFlipx> question: looking for a stable replacement for rhythmbox that will allow me to stream internet radio
[19:02] <deadbeef> genii, thank you
[19:02] <deadbeef> just what I wanted
[19:02] <roche976> i am trying to setup kismet but i have no idea where to look to find out the name part under source in kismet.conf
[19:02] <jazzkutya> xFlipx: you can try amarok
[19:02] <mahesh> karan:: iam skilled in those and iam also ready to learn new languages..so help
[19:03] <xFlipx> jazzkutya, yeah tried it - sucks just the same. :(
[19:03] <Karan> ...
[19:03] <entropy51423> Okay, is metacity a WM?
[19:03] <Starnestommy> entropy51423: it is
[19:03] <jazzkutya> xFlipx: what's you problem with rhythmbox and amarok? my problem was missing the possibility to select sound output
[19:03] <jazzkutya> xFlipx: amarok solved this one
[19:03] <entropy51423> Okay, I can use xinit /usr/bin/metacity and it would start metacity in a seperate x?
[19:04] <xFlipx> randomly disconnecting from streams - not responding to inputs - etc etc... just all around crappy software.
[19:04] <Mr_Giraffe> entropy51423, metacity is a WM, like fluxbox (more lightweight, no icons)
[19:04] <Mr_Giraffe> however, GNOME is not
[19:04] <entropy51423> xFlipx: What do you mean
[19:05] <trashguy> isnt metacity gnome
[19:05] <trashguy> ...
[19:05] <trashguy> essentially
[19:05] <simplexio> xFlipx: try mplayer and vlc
[19:05] <mahesh> karan:: post ur ideas for me...http://magesh.freehostia.com/myboard/
[19:05] <Starnestommy> trashguy: no, it is part of gnome
[19:05] <SeveredCross> metacity is gnome-s minimalistic window manager.
[19:05] <xFlipx> entropy51423, I'm speaking about rhythmbox - not metacity the WM.
[19:05] <xFlipx> thanks simpl
[19:05] <nkriz> i'm trying to create a share folder on a ubuntu comp to share over a ubuntu and windows network, but my user doesn't have permission. help?
[19:05] <mahesh> karan:: i'll be very graceful
[19:05] <xFlipx> thanks simplexio :)
[19:05] <trashguy> well gnoem used ot use Enlightenment
[19:06] <entropy51423> I know about Fluxbox, I used to use it some when I was messing around with DSL(Damn Small Linux)
[19:06] <Schnook> hello?
[19:06] <mahesh> karan:: give ur mail id::
[19:06] <bonespur> is there a image compression software for ubuntu??
[19:06] <Pici> mahesh: This channel is only for UBuntu support questions, offtopic chat in #ubuntu-offtopic
[19:06] <bonespur> i have high res photos i want to downsize...
[19:06] <Karan> Pici: since he's being so persistent, i've taken him private
[19:06] <entropy51423> gz zips up most things
[19:06] <Karan> sorry
[19:06] <Pici> Karan: np
[19:06] <Schnook> Does anybody know anything about dhcp3-server on ubuntu server 8.04?
[19:06] <entropy51423> I am pretty sure it can do images as well
[19:07] <bartounet> Bonsoir

[19:07] <Pici> bonespur: imagemagick can probably handle whatever you plan to throw at it
[19:07] <entropy51423> Would xinit /usr/bin/metacity start up metacity in a new x?
[19:07] <Pici> !fr | bartounet
[19:07] <bonespur> Pici: is it a GUI based tool??
[19:07] <abadr> How do in install daemontools on Ubuntu?
[19:08] <Schnook> how can I configure dhcp3-server to assignip addresses numerically?
[19:08] <Pici> bonespur: No, sorry.  I thought daemontools was about running serivces
[19:08] <xFlipx> gotta kill -9 the pid because apparently the coders had no intention of X actually stopping the process...
[19:08] <deadbeef> !MD5
[19:08] <Pici> abadr: no.. daemontools on windows is for mounting ISO images.
[19:09] <Schnook> Can anybody help me with dhcp3-server on ubuntu 8.04 server
[19:09] <Schnook> ??
[19:09] <wols> and on linux it's evil djb software
[19:09] <erUSUL> abadr: i thought you were talking about the famous image mounting windows utility
[19:09] <abadr> Pici: I'm talking about DJB's
[19:09] <Starnestommy> Schnook: what kind of help do you need with it?
[19:09] <erUSUL> abadr: what do you want to do?
[19:09] <Pici> abadr: DJB?
[19:09] <wols> Schnook: ask a specific questin and state your problem clearly
[19:09] <mudzereli> Can anyone help me to get my wired connection hooked up? I'll mess with wireless once I can actually get to the internet and download stuff, but I can't get my wired working at all. If it helps I've got a RTL-8139 card, and I'm accessing the internet through a router. I can't ping out or anything.
[19:09] <wols> Pici: author of qmail
[19:09] <Pici> wols: I'm still scratching my head.
[19:10] <abadr> erUSUL: run a script that will watch a directory for incoming files to process, and send the result of processing them to another server
[19:10] <wols> Pici: danjel j. bernstein
[19:10] <Schnook> I need to know how I can configure my server to assign ip addresses in a certain order, rather than just randomly assigning them
[19:10] <Schnook> thanks for the help
[19:10] <wols> Schnook: you can differentiate by MAC
[19:10] <erUSUL> abadr: use cron (or is the script a daemon?)
[19:10] <nkriz> can someone help me create a share folder to use over a network?
[19:10] <erUSUL> !cron | abadr
[19:10] <entropy51423> When I used xinit /usr/bin/metacity it gave me this error http://paste.ubuntu.com/31382/plain/
[19:11] <genii> Schnook: It doesn't randomly assign. It starts at the highe end of the range you gave and counts downwards
[19:11] <entropy51423> Any clues as how to start a new x with Metacity?
[19:11] <abadr> erUSUL: using cron makes it more complicated, because different input files take different amount of time to process
[19:11] <deker> hi all, i need some help with automounting in /etc/fstab
[19:11] <deker> my boss created a credential file with his username and password
[19:11] <deker> he's trying to mount a samba share upon startup
[19:11] <entropy51423> By default when you plug things into Ubuntu it mounts them
[19:11] <acp_> mudzereli: you may check https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WiFiTroubleshooting
[19:12] <deker> the mount part works, but some directories that he is supposed to have access to do not open
[19:12] <mudzereli> I just want my wired connection before I even mess with wireless
[19:12] <Schnook> genii, can u help configure it to start from the lowest end of the range and count up?
[19:12] <mudzereli> or is the wireless easier?
[19:12] <deker> says permission denied
[19:12] <entropy51423> How can I start a new x running Metacity?
[19:12] <cweagans> I have a Microsoft Optical Wheel Mouse (3 button) -- how do I get it to work in 8.04? I plug it in and the red light doesn't even come on -- I'm assuming it's probably a driver issue, but I have no idea how to fix it.
[19:12] <genii> Schnook: No, thats just the way it does it
[19:12] <deker> if he mounts it manually from the interface, under the places menu, it works fine
[19:12] <erUSUL> abadr: so your script is a daemon and you want it started with the system ?
[19:13] <entropy51423> It tried xinit but it gave me this error http://paste.ubuntu.com/31382/plain/
[19:13] <abadr> erUSUL: yes
[19:13] <bullgard4> '~$ xrandr; LVDS connected 1280x800+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 0mm x 0mm.' What does here mean "+0+0"?
[19:13] <ActionParsnip> cweagans: does it have clicky buttons on the left and rigt?
[19:13] <cweagans> ActionParsnip, Nope. Three button.
[19:13] <cweagans> right, left, and the scroll wheel is a button also
[19:13] <eie> anyone knows what softwares can run skystar 2 pci card in ubuntu?
[19:13] <ActionParsnip> cweagans: if yuo type lsusb does it show up?
[19:13] <genii> Schnook: If you want specific ip by specific machine then use assigning them by mac address as wols suggested
[19:14] <cweagans> entropy51423, you want to start a separate X session? or you just want to switch to metacity?
[19:14] <erUSUL> abadr: move it to /etc/init.d/ make it executable and then add it with default conf to startup like this: «sudo update-rc.d scriptname defaults»
[19:14] <abadr> erUSUL: will it automatically restart if it crashes?
[19:14] <entropy51423> start a seperate x session, I tried using xinit
[19:14] <erUSUL> abadr: there are other utilities like rcconf or bum to do this graphically
[19:14] <acp_> mudzereli: what seem to be the problem with your wired connection?
[19:14] <cweagans> ActionParsnip, oh-- wait.....it just started working
[19:14] <Schnook> ok thanks for the help guys!!!
[19:14] <ActionParsnip> fyi all http://www.theregister.co.uk/2008/07/28/dell_nvidia_chipset_glitch/
[19:14] <ActionParsnip> cweagans: sweet
[19:14] <cweagans> like 5 minutes after I plugged it in =D
[19:14] <erUSUL> abadr: not sure about it ...
[19:15] <abadr> ok
[19:15] <thrashy> How can I add permission for a user to write to a certain directory. For example how could I allow a user called "user1" to write to "/var/www"?
[19:15] <trashguy> i wish nvidia would fix there 2d supoprt :(
[19:15] <ActionParsnip> cweagans: yeah its just picking it up. Should be ok from hereon in
[19:15]  * Schnook is a pink bunny
[19:15] <cweagans> entropy51423, hmm...I dunno. I was going to suggest metacity --replace. I have no idea how to do it with xinit
[19:15] <monkwarrior> goodevening, does anyone in here have experience with connecting an openmoko with ubuntu ?
[19:15] <ActionParsnip> thrashy: you can make it the owner or put the user i a group and give the group ownership..or you could add it to the group that has access
[19:15] <mudzereli> if i do a sudo lshw -C network and both of my network cards are listed, does that mean that there is a driver installed for each of them?
[19:15] <entropy51423> maybe you know how to do it with startx
[19:16] <wols> !permissions | thrashy
[19:16] <erUSUL> trashguy: probably the best way is adding the usr to the group pwning the directory?? www-data for example
[19:16] <ActionParsnip> thrashy: usually only sudo / root has access to that file for security
[19:16] <trashguy> erUSUL, ?
[19:16] <erUSUL> trashy probably the best way is adding the usr to the group pwning the directory?? www-data for example
[19:16] <trashguy> lol
[19:16] <erUSUL> trashguy: tab completion error
[19:16] <trashguy> i do it all the time
[19:16] <cweagans> entropy51423, I boot to gdm -- not to console. To switch between Compiz & Metacity, I just use metacity --replace or compiz --replace
[19:16] <thrashy> ok thanks ActionParsnip / wols
[19:17] <ActionParsnip> mudzereli: does it say they have a driver
[19:17] <cweagans> but hold on one sec -- I might have something that'll work
[19:17] <mudzereli> http://paste.ubuntu.com/31375/ -this is what is says when i type sudo lshw -C network
[19:17] <erUSUL> trashguy: ;)
[19:17] <entropy51423> What is Compiz a WM? Is it the default one on Ubuntu?
[19:17] <trashguy> You could always use fusion icon for fast n00b switching ;)
[19:17] <stillrain> Hi, i am french, i need help. If someone can help me for pcsx2 thanks very much
[19:17] <ActionParsnip> entropy51423: its not efaulty and yes its a WM
[19:18] <ActionParsnip> !pcsx2
[19:18] <Munkey01> I am having trouble installing ubuntu, the installation program hangs at a black screen right before the installation begins
[19:18] <ActionParsnip> !info pcsx2
[19:18] <stillrain> okay
[19:18] <stillrain> thanks everybody ^^
[19:18] <ActionParsnip> Munkey01: what do you have onscreen? just blackness?
[19:18] <entropy51423> What is the default one Ubuntu and how do I get back to it?
[19:18] <Munkey01> yes
[19:18] <Munkey01> it begins to load the installer then just goes blank
[19:19] <nkriz> can somebody tell me how my user can get permission to create a share folder?
[19:19] <mudzereli> oh wait i linked the wrong pastebin
[19:19] <solexious> [Q] I want to browse files on my windows mobile phone, ive searched but im drawing blanks so far. How can I do this?
[19:19] <entropy51423> Can I use gnome --replace?
[19:19] <cweagans> entropy51423, compiz is desktop compositing. Default is metacity
[19:19] <ActionParsnip> entropy51423: gnome --replace
[19:20] <mudzereli> that pastebin is when i type ifconfig
[19:20] <solexious> [Q] I want to browse files on my windows mobile phone, ive searched but im drawing blanks so far. How can I do this? *By USB*
[19:20]  * ActionParsnip uses kde
[19:20] <ActionParsnip> solexious: what phone?
[19:20] <jussi01> !portables | solexious
[19:20] <Pici> ActionParsnip: gnome is not a window manager, metacity is.
[19:20] <entropy51423> Ohh
[19:20] <Munkey01> any ideas?
[19:20] <ActionParsnip> Pici: sorry, was a guess
 tytn II
[19:20] <entropy51423> I am sorry
[19:20] <entropy51423> What is Gnome then?
[19:20] <acp_> mudzereli: seem the driver did not load, can you see error in dmesg
[19:21] <cweagans> Gnome is the desktop environment -- google for gnome, KDE, and XFCE to see the differences
[19:21] <ActionParsnip> solexious: what OS does the phone use?
[19:21] <mudzereli> acp_ what kind of message am i looking for? just some kind of error message in the dmesg?
[19:22] <cweagans> ActionParsnip, quote:  <solexious> [Q] I want to browse files on my windows mobile phone
[19:22] <Munkey01> no matter if i try to install ubuntu or use it as a live cd it hangs after a short load screen

[19:24] <stmartin> hello!
[19:24] <ompaul> Alexs, /join #ubuntu-fr

[19:25] <nkriz> is my text visible?
[19:25] <dro> That's what I was hoping, but I haven't been able to get Wicd or Network Manager to find my network.
[19:25] <ompaul> nkriz, maybe, ;-)
[19:25] <Munkey01> after it loads it shows an x in the middle of the screen, so it seems that the gui is loading but then it goes black
[19:25] <nkriz> was starting to wonder...
[19:25] <dro> Basically, the hardware is present, I've tried the windows drivers and the defualt Atheros drivers.... Still, to no avail.
[19:26] <stmartin> when I press alt+shift the diode of Scroll Lock lights up on the keyboard. How to prevent this?
[19:26] <nkriz> could someone please help me with setting folder permissions?
[19:26] <IndyGunFreak> dro: what atheros device?
[19:26] <dro> Is there a way I can reset all the config files to their defaults so I can start from a fresh slate?
[19:26] <ompaul> !wireless | dro have a look at this stuff
[19:26] <cweagans> nkriz, sure
[19:26] <dro> 802.11
[19:26] <IndyGunFreak> dro: thats not a device, thats a protocol
[19:26] <SoHai> nkriz: chmod should do the trick normally...
[19:26] <stmartin> when I press alt+shift the diode of Scroll Lock lights up on the keyboard. How to prevent this?
[19:26] <IndyGunFreak> dro: run lspci in a terminal, and see how it identifies your wireless device
[19:27] <cweagans> stmartin, don't press alt+shift?
[19:27] <jhb1608> question?
[19:27] <stmartin> cweagans, I must, since I am using cyrillic support

[19:27] <cweagans> nkriz, are you creating the share as root?
[19:27] <IndyGunFreak> dro: thats easily setup w/ madwifi, thats the wireless device i use.
[19:28] <dro> i tried doing ti from svn yesterday and it wouldn't detect the network.
[19:28] <jhb1608> ok, I am trying to update all of my softwares, but it won't update, even it say it is updated?
[19:28] <nkriz> cweagans: i don't think so, i created a folder in my home folder
[19:28] <td123> nkriz: you could just let everyone read / write to it
[19:28] <IndyGunFreak> dro: type this w/o quotes, and i'll talk you through it.. "/join #indygunfreak"
[19:28] <dro> simply retry?
[19:28] <td123> nkriz: it would be chmod 666
[19:28] <dro> excellent, thanks

[19:31] <jhb1608> they updated to 0.4.1
[19:31] <jhb1608> but 0.4.0 here
[19:31] <Pici> jhb1608: For the most part, packages remain at the same version from the date of release unless someone backports it.
[19:31] <jhb1608> hm.
[19:31] <cweagans> jhb1608, if it's not in the ubuntu repositories, it won't show up as an update
[19:31] <Pici> jhb1608: We don't do a rolling release like Debian does.
[19:31] <jhb1608> backports?
[19:32] <Pici> !backports | jhb1608

[20:04] <krazy-h> e eebd
[20:04] <chuy_max> poollto, you may want to use synaptic package manager to do it in a graphical fashion, you'll get the latest firefox from ubuntu repositories
[20:04] <krazy-h> hello everybody
[20:04] <EvilDennisR> !hi | krazy-h
[20:04] <poollto> Tanks Chuy_max

[20:06] <Nutzebahn> I don't know which partition is which.
[20:06] <thinman1189> ubuntu (8.04 64bit) has been hanging on start up for a while now and it's getting worse. sometimes it'll just freeze and I'll have to cntrl alt backspace out. is there any way to display the boot text while I'm booting up, so I can see why it's hanging?
[20:07] <sjovan> cygoku: and you did delete the ~/.wine folder?
[20:07] <Silviazza> hi all. Ubuntu dont poweroff my pc. how to?
[20:07] <cygoku> sjovan, yes I did deleted it
[20:07] <sjovan> Silviazza: man shutdown
[20:07] <aguitel> how i know nvidia driver i am using in my system ?
[20:07] <Silviazza> automatic shutdown?
[20:07] <sjovan> cygoku: okay, then i have no ide
[20:07] <minimax> I've got an annoying threads error when trying to build a source package
[20:08] <cygoku> damn
[20:08] <cdecarlo> thinman1189: I think if you hit Esc it brings out of the boot splash screen
[20:08] <minimax> 0xb7a6e4f0 in buffered_vfprintf () from /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6
[20:08] <chuy_max> thinman1189, yes, remove splash from menu.lst
[20:08] <Gillpy> thinman1189: try removing splash from boot parameters to kernel, if its there.
[20:09] <Nutzebahn> Another problem I am having is that I can't access some partitions without typing in the root password first?
[20:09] <lolmac> this is the ubuntu help channel?
[20:09] <Pici> lolmac: indeed.
[20:09] <legend2440> Nutzebahn: type sudo fdisk -l  maybe the size of hard drives will be a clue
[20:10] <thinman1189> cdecarlo chuy_max Gillpy: ty
[20:10] <krazy-h> today i'm so happy cause i resolve my big problem !!!!!!!!!!!!
[20:10] <lolmac> the ubuntu 8.04 comes with the visual effects like the previous versions?
[20:10] <lolmac> wooble and stuff?
[20:10] <sjovan> Nutzebahn: then you have to either change the owner or permissions. > man chown < > man chmod <
[20:11] <Gillpy> Silviazza: try poweroff command
[20:11] <mudzereli> how come i have to use acpi=off to get ubuntu to boot? i can get it to work, just want to know why i have to put that in there?
[20:11] <sjovan> krazy-h: gratz :)
[20:11] <Silviazza> Gillpy: where? in the terminal?
[20:12] <sjovan> Silviazza: no, wright with a pen on your screen
[20:12] <krazy-h> Yeah:D Linux is the best
[20:12] <lolmac> i installed in my pc previously the 7.10 version of ubuntu, it worked fine, but i couldn't use the visual effects and run video files at the same time...
[20:12] <Silviazza> Gillpy:  exist a way to do this in automatic?
[20:12] <lolmac> my vga is a ati radeon 9550
[20:13] <lolmac> the plugins, drivers, have been updated?
[20:13] <Mr_Bad_News> how do i get stardict to work
[20:13] <Mr_Bad_News> it just looks up chinese
[20:13] <Gillpy> Silviazza: I dont know
[20:13] <Flare183> krazy-h: I agree
[20:14] <sjovan> i don't.... it's just a mather of taste. nothing is best
[20:14] <GOTFrogqc> Hi I was wondering how much trouble will I have fixing grub, once I reinstall windows
[20:14] <Abed> hey guys i would to like to run a specific command line when the box begins so anyone?
[20:15] <Gnea> Abed: what command?
[20:15] <Abed>  sudo rmmod omnibook && sudo modprobe omnibook ectype=14
[20:15] <maybeway36> GOTFrogqc: not much
[20:15] <EvilDennisR> Abed: add it to /etc/rc.local
[20:15] <maybeway36> just have a live cd handy
[20:15] <Abed> Gnea  sudo rmmod omnibook && sudo modprobe omnibook ectype=14
[20:15] <Flare183> !who | maybeway36
[20:15] <Abed> thnx EvilDennisR
[20:15] <Gnea> Abed: no need. just add the option ectype=14 to /etc/modutils/
[20:15] <EvilDennisR> Abed: rc.local is the last script to get run when the box starts up
[20:15] <GOTFrogqc> cool cause I wrecked my wondows, and don't want to have to redo linux too
[20:16] <krazy-h> You know i had many problems with Windows that why i leave it :D
[20:16] <Gnea> Abed: er, sorry that should be /etc/modprobe.d/options
[20:16] <GOTFrogqc> maybeway36 and how would I do that?
[20:17] <Abed> Gnea I edited rc.lcoal as EvilDennisR said
[20:17] <EvilDennisR> Abed: Yeah, if its modules and such then add it to modprobe.d
[20:17] <Abed> and i will see
[20:17] <EvilDennisR> Abed: fyi, if you keep it in rc.local you don't need sudo infront of the commands
[20:17] <Gnea> Abed: well, that's one way to do it. the modprobe.d method takes less time.
[20:17] <maybeway36> GOTFrogqc: on a live CD termial:     sudo grub     root (name,of,ubuntu.partition)    setup (hd0)
[20:17] <Abed> ok EvilDennisR thnx
[20:18] <Abed> Gnea after modprobe.d wut???
[20:18] <Gnea> Abed: just edit the options file and add it toward the end. the syntax is easy to figure out if you look at the others there.
[20:18] <smaila> is there  any linux drivers  for huawei e220 hsdpa  out  there ?
[20:18] <LordDicranius> when checking the processes via command-line via "ps", what's the difference between processes with brackest and those that do not?
[20:18] <GOTFrogqc> ok thx
[20:19] <Abed> Gnea the problem is that after the reboot i type lsmod | grep omnibook and i see omnibook but it doesn't work until  sudo rmmod omnibook && sudo modprobe omnibook ectype=14
[20:20] <Gnea> Abed: i realize that. that's why, if you add the ectype=14 option to the options file, the system will automatically load it correctly, the first time, without having to reload it like that, and it will simply *work*
[20:20] <giacomo_carissim> i followed this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EncryptedHomeFolder and i think i didnt add the user to fuse and now i cannot login to my user account... how can i fix this?
[20:20] <Abed> Gnea how to add ectype = 14?
[20:20] <Gnea> Abed: as i explained: edit the /etc/modprobe.d/options file
[20:21] <Abed> Gnea ok but i dunno how!!
[20:21] <rconan> giacomo_carissim, boot to an elevated prompt then add your user to the group
[20:21] <rconan> giacomo_carissim, theres the recovery option in grub which should give you a root prompt
[20:21] <giacomo_carissim> rconan, im sorry, but im not exactly sure that that means
[20:21] <Gillpy> Abed: emacs ftw
[20:21] <Abed> Gillpy wut?
[20:21] <Gnea> Abed: nano, vim or emacs will do it - be sure to preceed with sudo
[20:21] <giacomo_carissim> rconan, i booted to root from grub
[20:22] <b\6> what package provides GL/gl.h?
[20:22] <Abed> !emacs
[20:22] <maybeway36> an elevated prompt is "sir" instead of "hey, dude" :P
[20:22] <Gnea> !nano
[20:22] <giacomo_carissim> rconan, but when i try to run useradd user fuse, it gives me a list of options
[20:22] <fyre|work> smaila: yes, there are.
[20:22] <Gillpy> Abed: on second thoughts dont use emacs
[20:22] <Abed> Gnea i know but the syntax?
[20:22] <rconan> giacomo_carissim, do "gpasswd -a username groupname"
[20:22] <Mr_Bad_News> how do i get stardict to save the meaning of the word as well
[20:22] <orgthingy> back!
[20:22] <Abed> Gillpy i use nano
[20:22] <Gnea> Abed: get the file to open, and just follow the syntax that's already there
[20:22] <orgthingy> anyhow, how can i know how many users are using my wireless?
[20:22] <IndoRama>  vi is cool
[20:23] <Gillpy> @lart IndoRama
[20:23] <smaila> fyre|work  where ? :P
[20:23] <giacomo_carissim> rconan, what does that do?  what do i do for groupname, i dont remember seting up any groups
[20:23]  * delcoyote hi
[20:23] <rconan> giacomo_carissim, groupname is fuse if you want to add your user to the fuse grouop
[20:23] <Shish_> does anyone know how to use 'AWN' -- specifically how to add programs on the dock?
[20:23] <Abed> ok Gnea but do I have to put options at the beginning of the line then the omnibook ectype=14?
[20:23] <orgthingy> any idea?
[20:23] <giacomo_carissim> ah, so do gpasswd -a user fuse?
[20:23] <rconan> yes
[20:24] <fyre|work> smaila: the new network manager (0.7.0) has them built in, but you can download the vodafone linux drivers from vodafone betavine : https://forge.betavine.net/projects/vodafonemobilec/
[20:24] <fyre|work> smaila: its an app you run and it will download some necessary components and then you'll be able to access the device as a modem.
[20:24] <fyre|work> Shish_: right click
[20:24] <Abed> orgthingy it counts in ur router
[20:25] <giacomo_carissim> thanks rconan, im going to reboot and try that out... thanks for the help and reply.
[20:25] <smaila> fyre|work tnx
[20:25] <Abed> orgthing counts on*
[20:25] <orgthingy> Abed: well, my router sucks
[20:25] <blockhd> hello everybody
[20:25] <blockhd> :D
[20:25] <lusule> hi there :)  what is the difference between XRandR and XVidMode?
[20:25] <orgthingy> and i was wondering if there's a linux program for it?
[20:25] <TiredWolf> lusule: all letters aside from the first
[20:25] <Mr_Bad_News> is there a way to get stardict to just export the meaning to a text file and not links
[20:25] <Abed> orgthingy don't u have DHCP list
[20:26] <Gnea> Abed: yes.
[20:26] <orgthingy> lol, no
[20:26] <blockhd> i need some help from experts..... my audio inputs dont seemto be working
[20:26] <lusule> TiredWolf, thank you for that very helpful info...
[20:26] <Gillpy> !alsa
[20:26] <blockhd> Gillpy
[20:26] <blockhd> hello
[20:27] <ichooseuinternet> my laptop will not wake up from sleep or hybernate
[20:27] <blockhd> i tried that....... but failed :)
[20:27] <grindhold_> i have a problem with setting up ubuntu 8.04 on a computer. if i try to start ubuntu from the CD, only a console named "ash" is being loaded. on my pc ubuntu loads like it normally does
[20:27] <b\6> someone with /usr/include/GL/gl.h please dpkg -S it? i don't know what provides it.
[20:27] <grindhold_> i am not able to start gdm with that console
[20:27] <grindhold_> any idea?
[20:27] <Flare183> grindhold_:Type in sudo gdm
[20:28] <Flare183> grindhold_:That should make it start
[20:28] <cordoban> #ubuntu-gr
[20:28] <grindhold_> okay i'll try. i'm first going to do a memtest, Flare183
[20:28] <Flare183> grindhold_: ok
[20:29] <nelson_> holaa a todos
[20:29] <TiredWolf> !es
[20:30] <fyre|work> b\6: browse the package archives at debian
[20:31] <grindhold_> Flare183: sudo gdm doesn't work. ash doesn't know sudo -.-
[20:31] <grindhold_> and its *not* bash, its ash
[20:31] <EvilDennisR> grindhold_: /usr/bin/sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[20:31] <grindhold_> "busybox built in shell"
[20:31] <grindhold_> okay
[20:31] <grindhold_> thx
[20:31] <cruddpuppet> Okay, I am trying to listen to some musics through Totem, but it says my audio output is in use by another application !
[20:32] <cruddpuppet> I do not know what application this is, so I cannot end it, either.
[20:32] <grindhold_> in /usr, there is only the folder lib, but no bin, EvilDennisR
[20:33] <Vlet> How can I install apache13 on hardy? When I try to install 'apache-perl', it tells me the package is obsolete and unavailable
[20:33] <sjovan> Vlet: not recomended, but google and finde the package on the net then :)
[20:33] <smaila> cruddpuppet  ps aux | grep audio  .. .  kill proccess number
[20:33] <Starnestommy> Vlet: try installing libapache2-mod-perl2  instead of apache-perl
[20:33] <smaila> clear
[20:33] <bttb> Hi all
[20:33] <demasrv> In order to get packet injection working with my iwl4965 driver I've been trying to upgrade my linux-headers to 2.6.26
[20:34] <Gillpy> cruddpuppet: or try  'fuser /dev/dsp'
[20:34] <cruddpuppet> lol@lolx:/etc/init.d$ ps aux | grep audio
[20:34] <cruddpuppet> lol      21294  0.0  0.0   2884   764 pts/7    R+   15:33   0:00 grep audio
[20:34] <demasrv> and I installed them, but uname -r is still giving me the older headers even after restart
[20:34] <Flare183> grindhold_: Oh Then that means that sh or bash didn't start, it alost means that your computer can't boot the live CD correctly
[20:34] <Vlet> sjovan: yeah, this isn't a production system... more of a 'trying some screwey stuff out' system ;)
[20:34] <cruddpuppet> Gillpy: Is that supposed to return any text ?
[20:35] <Abed> Gnea thnx it works edited /etc/modprobe.d/options and add the options omnibook ectype=14 line
[20:35] <Abed> thnx a lot
[20:35] <sjovan> Vlet: but it looks like Starnestommy had a bether awnser for you
[20:35] <grindhold_> Flare183: any idea for a reason of that?
[20:35] <Vlet> sjovan: agreed; trying that route instead :)
[20:35] <Flare183> grindhold_: Old computer, bad cd, or bad CD-ROM drive
[20:36] <Gillpy> cruddpuppet: it's meant to return the PID of the process using /dev/dsp
[20:36] <grindhold_> Flare183: very new computer, cd testet in my pc -> it works, cd rom drive works in windows
[20:36] <cruddpuppet> Gillpy: Doesn't say a thing.
[20:36] <adac> I want to access to my ubuntu with vnc...but I do only get black screen...any ideas?
[20:36] <Gnea> Abed: you're welcome
[20:36] <grindhold_> i already did uncountable memtests, benchmarks e.t.c
[20:37] <TiredWolf> grindhold_: "etc" is not an acronym
[20:37] <sjovan> adac: try nx instead... vnc is slow and sucks teh balls
[20:37] <Flare183> grindhold_: Then it could be that the kernel can't boot on that computer (I have the similar problem, but with a computer that already has Ubuntu installed)
[20:37] <demasrv> grindhold_:  I've had older computers with optical drives that worked in windows, but couldn't run a livecd
[20:37] <Gnea> TiredWolf: usually, etc refers to /etc in the unix world. it is acceptable.
[20:38] <Vlet> When I use cpan to install Apache::Session, it asks for the location of my apache source... if I install apache2-threaded-dev, where does it put the source?
[20:38] <TiredWolf> Gnea: e.t.c just means nothing though.
[20:38] <Gnea> TiredWolf: as long as the context is understand, that's all that matters.
[20:38] <dingel> help
[20:38] <grindhold_> the strange thing is that it already worked some weeks ago :/
[20:38] <Gnea> *understood
[20:38] <Gnea> !ask | dingel
[20:39] <dingel> sorry, I just wanted to call up a help list
[20:39] <dingel> again sorry
[20:40] <grindhold_> so, demasrv Flare183: i am going to test another CD-Rom drive
[20:41] <giacomo_carissim> rconan, hey, i added my user to fuse, but i still cannot log in as the user
[20:41] <Flare183> grindhold_: ok
[20:41] <blockhd> hey people
[20:41] <Gnea> slightly off-topic, i just found the answer to what a lot of people have been asking about: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Hardy#How_to_make_VLC_open_when_you_insert_a_DVD
[20:41] <giacomo_carissim> rconan, and if i switch to the user from the root, i cannot sudo anything
[20:41] <blockhd> i tried several times....... my audio input still nto working.......
[20:41] <blockhd> i really hate this
[20:42] <Flare183> !hi | blockhd
[20:42] <stoneCold_> I'm using 8.04 in combination with Compiz Fusion ... now when I use VLC with openGL as output module, VLC is crashing immediately, has someone already found a workarround ? (the problem only appears with Compiz enabled)
[20:42] <Gnea> blockhd: what audio input?
[20:42] <blockhd> Flare183, hello
[20:42] <blockhd> Gnea..... all of them
[20:43] <blockhd> i tried mic, line in
[20:43] <Flare183> gtg bbl
[20:43] <tonohono> Gnea: Thanks the vlc tip, totem is absolute crap when it comes to DVDs. Or anything, for that matter.
[20:43] <blockhd> also PCM ...... so i could record what i play and so on
[20:44] <Gnea> tonohono: mplayer isn't too bad, but yeah, vlc is the best
[20:44] <blockhd> Gnea; any ideas?
[20:44] <Gnea> blockhd: okay, so just the mic and line-in?
[20:44] <blockhd> and PCM capture
[20:44] <Gnea> oh, that would probably be the software-side of things
[20:44] <blockhd> probably.
[20:45] <Gnea> i tend to stay strict on things, assumptions tend to provide more problems than solutions
[20:45] <blockhd> Gnea.... just one thought, please :P
[20:45] <blockhd> i dont understand, why linux, Ubuntu to be exact, gives me 100s of diferent mixers to choose from
[20:46] <stoneCold_> however, I welcome any ideas
[20:46] <jhaig> I have enabled auto login for a particular user and immediately after I set it, it works OK but when I reboot it does not unless I restart X (ctrl-alt-backspace).  I have NIS set up on the network, and this problem does not occur on the machine that is running the NIS server, only the clients.  Can anyone help please?
[20:46] <Gnea> blockhd: :) make sure that the only things plugged in are your speakers and the mic - we'll worry about the others later
[20:46] <TiredWolf> blockhd: i heard it's called choice
[20:46] <blockhd> TiredWolf..... its confusing.
[20:46] <blockhd> very.
[20:46] <soliban> hi all
[20:46] <TiredWolf> blockhd: get used to it
[20:46] <Gnea> blockhd: well, ubuntu only has one or two installed at the get-go, so anything else is your fault
[20:46] <LockLock> testing

[20:47] <blockhd> under the change device menu, i have 8 choices...
[20:47] <Gnea> alsamixer is fine
[20:47] <blockhd> thats confusing, especially for a newbie like me

[20:47] <usuario_> knjjn
[20:47] <soliban> i get an error with ubuntu..i'm using a particular configuration (i have more than one linux distribution) i had to move /boot files and now i get a kernel panic. someone could help me, please'
[20:48] <soliban> ?*
[20:48] <EvilDennisR> soliban: ..why did you have to move /boot
[20:48] <Abed> guys i have a trouble suddenly my Fn doesn't work or it work i see the progress bar changes when i change the brightness but the desktop stay the same
[20:49] <soliban> EvilDennisR: i created a folder for ubuntu boot files
[20:49] <soliban> anyway my problem is with grub
[20:49] <EvilDennisR> soliban: ..you mean to tell me you have different linux os's using the same filesystem?
[20:49] <cruddpuppet> How do I restart my sound server? My sound no longer work. Totem is giving me an error message when I try listening to an mp3
[20:49] <Finiras> do any of you happen to know a good unix app that will sync a local dir with a ftp dir
[20:49] <soliban> it can not recognize root= fs
[20:49] <blockhd> ok Gnea im ready
[20:49] <Gnea> blockhd: ok, in another terminal please type: lspci | grep audio
[20:50] <soliban> EvilDennisR: of course /boot folder is on a  different partition
[20:50] <Gnea> blockhd: how many results?
[20:50] <blockhd> Gnea; lol.........
[20:50] <EvilDennisR> soliban: so when grub loads up, hit c for command line, then do root (hd#,#)
[20:50] <blockhd> actually, the microphone is working
[20:50] <blockhd> :D
[20:50] <blockhd> i pluged it into wrong jack.
[20:50] <blockhd> idiot me! :)
[20:50] <EvilDennisR> soliban: where # is the drive and partition that /boot is on
[20:51] <Gnea> heh
[20:51] <blockhd> Gnea
[20:51] <blockhd> but still, i have problem..........
[20:51] <blockhd> with audio capture!
[20:51] <EvilDennisR> soliban: then do kernel /vmlinuz-whatever root=/dev/${hd|sd}[a-z]#
[20:51] <soliban> EvilDennisR: i already did it...i think that when os start it will attaches disks on different device
[20:51] <Gnea> and that problem is, exactly?
[20:51] <demasrv> I need help with updating my linux-headers, I've installed the 2.6.26 generic using [ http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/devel/ ] in order to get a driver working.  Under /lib/modules/ the 2.6.26-4-generic folder is there but when I reboot and run [ sudo dpkg -l | grep -i linux-image ] the 2.6.26 one doesn't come up
[20:51] <Mr_Bad_News> can someone help me get awesome git compiled
[20:51] <evanderv> Hi guys I am trying to add a vpn connection to the nm applet and I get a little window that pops up and says "a GnomeDruid"  While looking the debugging when running nm though a CLI I get gtk_widget_set_sensitive: assertion `GTK_IS_WIDGET (widget)' failed

[20:52] <seanh> Can anyone recommend a good last.fm player? If I visit the page for an album, say, on last.fm where I can play the full track for all tracks the built-in player stops after each track and I need to press play again. I'm looking for something that'll let me listen to an album without doing that
[20:52] <EvilDennisR> solid_liq: wrong tab nick completion..
[20:53] <blockhd> Gnea, could u help me on that one?
[20:53] <soliban> is this fstab right? http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/31423/ it sounds me strange...why row with devices are commented?
[20:54] <Gnea> blockhd: what exactly is the problem? i'm not going to assume to know what it is until you explain.
[20:54] <blockhd> okay .
[20:54] <EvilDennisR> soliban: it uses the UUID of the drive, and not the /dev/ address
[20:54] <sjovan> seanh: sudo apt-get install last.fm
[20:54] <sjovan> oops
[20:54] <blockhd> Now, it captures microphone.... but not the audio i play.
[20:54] <sjovan> seanh: sudo apt-get install lastfm
[20:54] <blockhd> i would like to record the music i play on my audio playerr to my friend
[20:54] <soliban> EvilDennisR: how can i check UUID?
[20:55] <EvilDennisR> soliban: ...good question
[20:55] <EvilDennisR> !uuid
[20:55] <Drk_Guy> Is /etc/modprobe.conf parsed in hardy?
[20:55] <sjovan> soliban: vol_id -u <partition>
[20:55] <anthony> Is there a way to check whether a processor is 32-bit or 64-bit?  I have a 32-bit copy of Ubuntu installed currently, but I suspect it may actually be a 64-bit machine.
[20:55] <evanderv> Hi
[20:55] <soliban> sjovan: yes but when os. is started...i cannot start ubuntu ;)
[20:55] <nixnoob_> anthony: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[20:56] <nixnoob_> anthony: if there is lm flag its 64 bit
[20:56] <sjovan> soliban: what?
[20:56] <sjovan> anthony: but stick with 32 bit, it's much more stable (I have heard)
[20:56] <soliban> sjovan: i cannot start ubuntu...
[20:56] <Gnea> blockhd: okay, are you playing the audio in free-form, or by plugging the instrument into the soundcard?
[20:56] <soliban> i get a kernel panic
[20:56] <Drk_Guy> sjovan, 64 bit is really stable
[20:57] <sjovan> soliban: ah, i c. when you start up. where does things stop?
[20:57] <blockhd> im playing audio through Music player on my computer
[20:57] <sjovan> Drk_Guy: oh, cool
[20:57] <blockhd> i play mp3 :)
[20:57] <gOETTLE> How can I empty the trash in ubuntu?
[20:57] <soliban> sjovan: at boot
[20:57] <Drk_Guy> sjovan, i use it, no complaning
[20:57] <EvilDennisR> soliban: I told you what to do, you need to specify root= when grub selects the kernel
[20:57] <Gnea> blockhd: if it's already recorded, what's the problem? :)
[20:57] <soliban> i moved boot files...
[20:57] <sjovan> soliban: can you ctrl+alt+F1 to get to a shell?
[20:57] <blockhd> i would liek to capture it
[20:57] <Drk_Guy> gOETTLE, rm -rfv .trash/* :)
[20:58] <Chowder> anyone hear ever use snes9x? I need help configurng the keyboard controls.
[20:58] <EvilDennisR> soliban: root (hd0,2)
[20:58] <blockhd> and send it to my friend over teamspeak
[20:58] <blockhd> or amsn......
[20:58] <gOETTLE> Thanks
[20:58] <EvilDennisR> soliban: kernel /vmlinuz-whatever root=/dev/sda5
[20:58] <Drk_Guy> gOETTLE, :)
[20:58] <EvilDennisR> soliban: (according to your fstab you pasted)
[20:58] <soliban> EvilDennisR: already tried!
[20:58] <Mr_Bad_News> how do i get xchat to use a proxy
[20:58] <anthony> nixnoob_: LM you say?  all right
[20:58] <Mr_Bad_News> i set it in preferences but it keeps saying socket closed
[20:58] <Gnea> blockhd: that's more of a grey area than anything else - you're going to be on your own there
[20:59] <anthony> sjovan: It's a server.  Stabity of flash players and graphics drivers are not issues.
[20:59] <Drk_Guy> Is /etc/modprobe.conf parsed in hardy?
[20:59] <nixnoob_> anthony: yes im pretty sure its lm, im not sure 100% if itll show up on a 32 bit OS but I think it should.
[20:59] <blockhd> Gnea, thanks anyway! :)
[20:59] <blockhd> you were of great support :D
[20:59] <Schoen|Zolder> can someone tell me how i can open an file with the .emerald exetsion
[20:59] <nixnoob_> Schoen|Zolder: using emerald theme managewr
[20:59] <soliban> EvilDennisR: anyway it should be root (hd0,1)
[20:59] <Schoen|Zolder> how can i install that?
[21:00] <Drk_Guy> !info emerald | Schoen|Zolder
[21:00] <Chowder> Mr_Bad_News: try another proxy
[21:00] <sjovan> blockhd: why don't you just put up a music server? sudo apt-get install gnump3d
[21:00] <nixnoob_> Schoen|Zolder: sudo apt-get install emerald
[21:00] <vux> hello
[21:00] <soliban> grub starts from 0
[21:00] <Schoen|Zolder> ok thnx i try that
[21:00] <blockhd> sjovan is gnump3d shoutcast?
[21:00] <vux> deutsch ?
[21:01] <Starnestommy> !de | vux
[21:01] <demasrv> is anyone here familiar with linux-headers?  I need help upgrading
[21:01] <Chowder> anyone hear ever use snes9x? I need help configurng the keyboard controls.
[21:01] <Mr_Bad_News> do you know any Chowder
[21:01] <Schoen|Zolder> i did install emerald but where can i find that in the menu?
[21:01] <vux> yea not the only nbee
[21:01] <Mr_Bad_News> working
[21:01] <nixnoob_> demasrv: linux headers? new kernel?
[21:01] <Chowder> Mr_Bad_News: google TOR
[21:01] <nixnoob_> Schoen|Zolder: system > preferences
[21:01] <Mr_Bad_News> SOCKS Read error from server.
[21:01] <Mr_Bad_News>  Proxy traversal failed.
[21:01] <sjovan> blockhd: no, on gnump3d you can choose your self what songs you want to play. it's a server. you tell the config witch folder it should detect and it generates a html-page where you can browse trough the dir. you can click on play and you download a mpu file and you start streaming
[21:02] <thinman1189> how do I disable the black line effect when minimizing windows?
[21:02] <Chowder> Mr_Bad_News: but a lot of IRC networks block proxies, so be warned
[21:02] <nixnoob_> Chowder: freenode blocks almost all the free proxies in existance
[21:02] <blockhd> sjovan, thanks, but unfortunately thats not what im looking for :)
[21:03] <Chowder> nixnoob_: I'm talking about IRC networks in general
[21:03] <spiel_mit_feuer> wow
[21:03] <spiel_mit_feuer> im really having a hard time finding a suitable voice recognition program for linux
[21:03] <Chowder> nixnoob_: not just freenode
[21:04] <sjovan> blockhd: k, then i sugest that you do a ---> apt-cache search shoutcast
[21:04] <nixnoob_> Chowder: yea but freenode is a bit overkill on ip cloaking in general you need to ask admins for cloak etc.. just commenting.
[21:04] <blockhd> sjovan; im sorry to waste your time, but thats not my problem :)
[21:04] <EvilDennisR> soliban: Yeah, so it should be root (hd0,#) where # is the partition /boot is on
[21:04] <seanh> sjovan, can I play an album with this? It only seems to do artist and tag stations
[21:04] <izm99> does anyone know how Nautilus burns ISO's?  does it just use growisofs?  I can't play back DVDs created in Ubuntu using Vista... they show up with no files visible.
[21:04] <X-Seti> I've blocked proxies, some regbots, since 1992. still now says there isnt really any need
[21:05] <blockhd> my problem is, that i would like to capture audio i play on my mp3 player in the way i capture my voice through microphone, and then send it to my friend
[21:05] <TiredWolf> !offtopic
[21:05] <blockhd> over skype....
[21:05] <blockhd> for instance...
[21:05] <demasrv> is there a help channel for kernel type stuff?
[21:05] <spiel_mit_feuer> hey.. anyone know how to upgrade to intrepid via apt-get?
[21:05] <Starnestommy> demasrv: maybe ##linux
[21:05] <nixnoob_> blockhd: why not get a spdif cable and just run it from the mp3 player into the mic jack?
[21:06] <blockhd> lol.......
[21:06] <nixnoob_> demasrv: what are you trying to do exactly?
[21:06] <TiredWolf> blockhd: many soundcards allow piping output into input, look at your mixer, record settings, if there's some "capture" toggle or slider, or something like that.
[21:06] <Starnestommy> spiel_mit_feuer: questions about development versions of ubuntu (i.e. 8.10) are supposed to be in #ubuntu+1
[21:06] <demasrv> I'm trying to upgrade my linux-headers
[21:06] <demasrv> but I don't know if its possible or not to go up to what I need which is 2.6.26
[21:06] <blockhd> TiredWolf, yes, you udnerstand me!! :) but i cant found anything on that
[21:07] <TiredWolf> blockhd: pastebin the output of "amixer" and i can try to guess what the right setting is, if any
[21:07] <nixnoob_> demasrv: you cant do that from the repos you need to source and headers from kernel.org and you need to compile and instal the kernel
[21:07] <spiel_mit_feuer> well no one could give me an answer to my origional question so i asked another
[21:07] <nixnoob_> demasrv: and the headers as well
[21:07] <Mr_Bad_News> um i installed stardict and now i keep getting this damn popup randomly
[21:08] <Mr_Bad_News> how do i turn that off
[21:08] <sjovan> seanh: aaaaa, f*ck. my bad :/ I rememberd incorectly. I think amarok and a lot of other music aps can add last.fm radiostations
[21:08] <spiongraz__> demaserv: actually you could try out the 2.6.26 kernel, put in your sources.list instead of hardy intrepid everywhere
[21:08] <Mr_Bad_News> i dont see anything in prefs
[21:08] <spiongraz__> but be warned this is highly experimental
[21:08] <sjovan> seanh: but i haven't tryed, so i'm not shure. google it :)
[21:08] <orgthingy> http://www.23hq.com/23666/3059572_ef7085c0ea60414640e563e5d20559a6_standard.jpg <<< how can i get this theme? it's a XFCE one though :(
[21:08] <seanh> sjovan, thanks I'll try a few
[21:08] <cypherdelic> ubuntu rockz
[21:09] <EvilDennisR> orgthingy: the icon theme?
[21:09] <nixnoob_> spiongraz__: i tried to scare him with compiling and you give him the easy and extremely risky version, nice.
[21:09] <orgthingy> EvilDennisR: windows borders
[21:09] <blockhd> TiredWolf: http://pastebin.com/d6b4fdddd
[21:09] <spiongraz__> i know nixnoob_ , hihi =)
[21:10] <blockhd> TiredWolf: http://pastebin.com/d6b4fdddd
[21:10] <nixnoob_> spiongraz__: its not that he shouldnt be able to try it, its just that when he does you will be helping him undo the mess :)
[21:10] <demasrv> spiongraz:  you mean put the 2.6.26 kernel in my sources.list?
[21:11] <spiongraz__> umm sry demasrv
[21:11] <spiongraz__> i was wrong
[21:11] <nixnoob_> demasrv: he means to put the intrepid repo in your sources.list
[21:11] <spiongraz__> forget what i said
[21:11] <nixnoob_> demasrv: but you shouldnt do that
[21:11] <nixnoob_> spiongraz__: lol
[21:11] <TiredWolf> blockhd: i don't think i see the right setting, unless it's "Analog Mix", but i doubt it
[21:11] <demasrv> not even to just get the headers?
[21:11] <blockhd> nope its not
[21:12] <anachoret> how can i reset a user's settings to the ubuntu installation defaults?
[21:12] <EvilDennisR> Guest76730: Not the best idea to irc as root...
[21:12] <nixnoob_> demasrv: i dont understand why do you need the new headers if you are not going to install the new kernel?
[21:12] <nixnoob_> demasrv: they are useless unless you are using the new kernel
[21:12] <demasrv> If I want the new kernel I'd have to compile a vanilla kernel though wouldn't I
[21:13] <fyre|work> ...or you are compiling against another kernel version, but I doubt that's the case here.
[21:13] <simotempler> what would be the 2nd best browser for linux after firefox?
[21:13] <nixnoob_> demasrv: well like spiongraz__ said, you could just add the intrepid repos to your sources.list and get the deb pacakge but its risky because its not compiled for hardy
[21:13] <demasrv> good chance of kernel panic
[21:14] <nixnoob_> demasrv: i would advise against it, the only other option would be to compile from vanilla
[21:14] <TiredWolf> blockhd: another possibility is a program that steals the dsp output and writes it to a file, except the name of it escapes me right now. (alsa can possibly also do that, but i have no idea about the configuration to achieve it)
[21:14] <nixnoob_> demasrv: im not sure what the changes are so i cant advise you on the chances of kernel panic
[21:14] <blockhd> oh
[21:14] <demasrv> have people had a lot of success using ubuntu compiling from vanilla?
[21:14] <danieluccio> !scan
[21:15] <simotempler> Anyone know what would be the 2nd best browser for linux after firefox as i want a 2nd one for my proxy settings?
[21:15] <spiongraz__> in fact theres a tool that helps compiling kernel under ubuntu
[21:15] <spiongraz__> google for kernelcheck
[21:15] <nixnoob_> demasrv: i have used vanilla kernels before in ubunt without problems but YMMV make sure to use the .config from your current kernel, i think there are some patches to apply if u want a truly ubuntu kernel
[21:15] <spiongraz__> but if you use 3d acceleration the chances are pretty high your drivers will be broken
[21:16] <TiredWolf> blockhd: i suppose that skype doesn't just have a function to send an audio file?
[21:16] <simotempler> wud opera be the 2nd best?
[21:16] <blockhd> TiredWold... i would like to sing for my friend
[21:16] <nixnoob_> demasrv: spiongraz__ is right, most video drivers and wifi drivers will break because they arent supported yet
[21:16] <blockhd> and capture both audio from my mic and my Rythmbox music player
[21:17] <channeling> simote
[21:17] <demasrv> well I'll ggive it a shot, need to learn somehow right
[21:17] <nixnoob_> demasrv: is there any reason why you need the new kernel specifically?
[21:17] <channeling> simotempler, Ekiga, maybe
[21:17] <TiredWolf> blockhd: well, do you absolutely have to do it real time, can't you pre-record the whole thing for him?
[21:17] <rocker> hi... guys.
[21:17] <blockhd> lol........ :D
[21:17] <simotempler> cheers thought that was voip?
[21:17] <blockhd> i sing over skype a lot of times
[21:17] <LinuxIST> how can delete the ssb kernel module completely?
[21:17] <blockhd> for fun, you know
[21:17] <rocker> I am really getting disappointed with my Lenovo 3000 N200 laptop..
[21:17] <demasrv> I've been playing around with packet injection, but under the current kernel a certain kind of attack isn't working with my drivers
[21:18] <rocker> I have intel 965 .. chipset.
[21:18] <blockhd> its not so important to fix it, but id like to.
[21:18] <demasrv> but its working with the 2.6.26
[21:18] <TiredWolf> blockhd, i can't say it's impossible, but at least it's not trivial. as much as i hate hardware solutions, an actual loop cable is a cheap solution
[21:18] <IcyPolecat> blockhd: TiredWolf sorry for wading in but jack would enable recording of both
[21:18] <spiritssight> Does any one know where I can get help with wine and running a simple program
[21:18] <channeling> simotempler, I was wrong. I meant Epiphany
[21:18] <Mr_Bad_News> can someone help me with tor
[21:18] <TiredWolf> IcyPolecat: i think he wants to "record" straight into Skype, though
[21:18] <rocker> but the display is not that great..I checked the X org logs and its loading vesa drivers.
[21:18] <Starnestommy> Mr_Bad_News: try asking in #tor
[21:18] <Mr_Bad_News> im completely new to it
[21:18] <nixnoob_> LinuxIST: locate ssb.ko and use sudo rm
[21:18] <rocker> I changed the xorg.conf file and it is still now working...
[21:18] <simotempler> cheers
[21:18] <blockhd> but..... in windows it possible doing it with software
[21:18] <rocker> any idea how to make intel 965 work ?
[21:18] <Starnestommy> spiritssight: maybe in #wihehq
[21:18] <demasrv> Its with the iwl4965 drivers
[21:18] <blockhd> not with hw solutions
[21:18] <channeling> Mr_Bad_News, have you installed Privoxy?
[21:19] <TiredWolf> blockhd: how?
[21:19] <LinuxIST> nixnoob_, how can i find it
[21:19] <IcyPolecat> TiredWolf: blockhd: Yup but you can wire your inputs and virtual devices pretty much any which way
[21:19] <spiritssight> thanks very much
[21:19] <LinuxIST> or where can i find it?
[21:19] <nixnoob_> LinuxIST: locate
[21:19] <TiredWolf> IcyPolecat: and then Skype can use JACK as in input device? or JACK works as an ALSA input?
[21:19] <Mr_Bad_News> no channeling
[21:19] <TiredWolf> s/in/an/
[21:19] <Mr_Bad_News> do i need to?
[21:19] <blockhd> oh......
[21:19] <blockhd> you mean jack.... :)
[21:20] <demasrv> Anyway, I'll try kernelcheck.  Thanks for the help.
[21:20] <LinuxIST> nixnoob_, locate is not a command
[21:20] <Mr_Bad_News> channeling, i get Jul 28 14:04:06.000 [notice] Tor has successfully opened a circuit. Looks like client functionality is working. Jul 28 14:05:38.646 [warn] Received http status code 404 ("Not found") from server '<IP_ADDRESS>:9030' while fetching "/tor/status/fp/38D4F5FCF7B1023228B895EA56EDE7D5CCDCAF32.z".
[21:20] <LinuxIST> what is the standard linux command
[21:20] <channeling> Mr_Bad_News, yes.
[21:20] <TiredWolf> LinuxIST: excuse me?
[21:20] <rocker> guys can anyone help me with intel 965 driver issues?
[21:20] <EvilDennisR> LinuxIST: what? locate is a command
[21:20] <LinuxIST> bash: locate: command not found
[21:20] <soliban> EvilDennisR: can i use UUID into grub.conf instead of device? (so i will use those written into fstab)
[21:21] <TiredWolf> LinuxIST: what sort of Ubuntu installation do you have?
[21:21] <EvilDennisR> soliban: Most likely those written in fstab are wrong..
[21:21] <soliban> wow...
[21:21] <EvilDennisR> soliban: and I don't _think_ grub can use the UUID, but I'm not sure
[21:21] <EvilDennisR> LinuxIST: apt-get install locate
[21:21] <soliban> EvilDennisR: ok thanks...
[21:21] <nixnoob_> LinuxIST: find
[21:21] <Abed> Gnea r u there?
[21:21] <Abed> !locate
[21:22] <Gnea> Abed: am now
[21:22] <soliban> bye for now and thanks all
[21:22] <IcyPolecat> TiredWolf: blockhd: you should just be able to get Skype to pick up the jack audio device you can get an alsa plugin to do it for you. Via IPC if I recall
[21:22] <smashy> Users 1356 nicks oO
