[05:00] <venger> alejandr0, make sure cables, both ends are seated well,  does it still spin up?  had you changed any settings recently?
[05:00] <patrickmn> alejandr0: you may be out of luck with that partiular drive
[05:01] <carrera> zcat[1], I've already installed build-essential to no avail. Any other ideas?
[05:01] <alejandr0> patricmn: what can i do?
[05:01] <Prose> I got a cups problem to solve, it's on sale for the most motivated person, cups problem, do I see interest? you there in the back, is that interest you're waiving around ?

[05:01] <ech0dish> whats command to rename?
[05:02] <catfacts> ahtmly2k: wget downlds to your current dire
[05:02] <m1nds1llus1on> stickboy, did you install the ubuntu-restricted-formats package?
[05:02] <andresj> ech0dish: mv old new
[05:02] <catfacts> so cd to the dir u want
[05:02] <ech0dish> thanks
[05:02] <ahtmly2k> ah...
[05:02] <patrickmn> alejandr0: just make sure the cables are correctly connected and see if the drive spins at all. thats a start
[05:02] <andresj> ech0dish: remember that `cd /; mv /home/me/something else` will move the file to /else
[05:02] <alejandr0> ok
[05:02] <alejandr0> ty
[05:03] <zcat[1]> joejoecircusboy: yes, it was set at the time the package was installed. Found out where (in the admin menu) and turned it off, and rebooted to be sure. It's not set now but something in msttcorefonts is still configured to use it
[05:03] <ech0dish> whats command to copy a file
[05:03] <m1nds1llus1on> stickboy, sorry... I mean ubunt-restricted-extras... see here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats#Ubuntu%208.04
[05:03] <Shish_> i know this is a help channel, but i was wondering -- what are ur high scores for "five or more"??
[05:03] <andresj> ech0dish: cp old new
[05:03] <ech0dish> rename worked :)
[05:03] <patrickmn> alejandr0: maybe reset the bios to factory standard and try to see if the drive is recognized then
[05:03] <ech0dish> thx
[05:03] <ech0dish> ok cp thx
[05:03] <joejoecircusboy> zcat[1]: is the environmental variable still set? (did you try that echo command I gave?)
[05:04] <patrickmn> alejandr0: if that doesn't work then get a new hard drive and try to install Hardy again
 i thought i had from add/remove. then i did this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=853687 and hasn't helped
[05:05] <zcat[1]> joejoecircusboy: No problem.. the last apt-get remove --purge 'failed' but the package is actually gone and reinstalling it is using the direct network connection so all good!!
[05:05] <joejoecircusboy> zcat[1]: good stuff!
[05:05] <m1nds1llus1on> stickboy, open a terminal and run aptitude search ubuntu-restricted-extras then tell me if it has an i next to it or not
[05:05] <ahtmly2k> yeah but i tried to change the directory and failed... (i.e. cd /media/disk/users/) and it said no such file or directory...
[05:05] <Prose> if I can't get help with cups, anyone know some good gnome themes?
[05:06] <Anacranom> Prose, whats the prob?
[05:06] <usser> Prose, oxygen-gnome
[05:06] <Prose> usser: thanks
[05:07] <Prose> Anacranom: cups says printer is online but asking cups for a page test doesn't get the printer started
[05:07] <stickboy> shows kubuntu, ubuntu, xubuntu. ubuntu has an i next to it.
[05:07] <Prose> Anacranom: the problem is on a 7.1
[05:07] <Maximander> anyone know how to reset / clear a malformed JFS journal?
[05:08] <venger> Maximander, you can't use fsck on JFS?
[05:08] <ahtmly2k> oxygen-gnome... is that a package?
[05:08] <usser> ahtmly2k, its a theme on gnome-look.org makes gnome look like kde4
 shows kubuntu, ubuntu, xubuntu. ubuntu has an i next to it.
[05:08] <ahtmly2k> oh ok
[05:08] <elik> patrickmn, think we got it... by default, the bootloader is installed in [hd0], instead of /dev/.... (sda in this case)
[05:09] <Maximander> venger: journal is corrupt, so fsck can't replay it...
[05:09] <Anacranom> Prose, did you install PS drivers or just the defaukt stuff when setting it up?
[05:09] <Maximander> and leaves the superblock marked dirty
[05:09] <joejoecircusboy> Does anyone have a gnome theme that mimics KDE mimicking gnome?
[05:09] <Anacranom> Prose, *default
[05:09] <ahtmly2k> whats the command to uninstall packages... the add/remove stuff doesnt help that much
[05:09] <m1nds1llus1on> stickboy, have you tried this? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs
[05:09] <FAJALOU> ahtmly2k: sudo apt-get remove <package name>
[05:10] <FAJALOU> if you want to remove configuration files also it's sudo apt-get purge <package name>
[05:10] <Prose> Anacranom: it's a mp130 but I installed the IP1500 drivers and they USED to work on the same computer it doens't work now
[05:10] <venger> Maximander, you getting an exit code w/error?
[05:11] <Anacranom> ahtmly2k, sudo apt-get --purge remove some-package-name
[05:11] <Prose> Anacranom: so the drivers are good and obviously, I haven't changed anything I think might have disturbed CUPS (except I changed the static ip of the machine)
[05:11] <Maximander> venger: logredo failed rc=-202
 sudo apt-get install libdvdread3 says i already have newest version
[05:11] <joejoecircusboy> Does anyone have a gnome theme for Gnome? ('gnomes' as in the little dudes people put on their lawn)
[05:11] <m1nds1llus1on> stickboy, did you run the other commant?
[05:12] <Anacranom> ahhh Prose so its attached to a net box?
 gave me a warning about having soemthing else isntalled and that it was highly experimental
[05:12] <Prose> Anacranom: yeah samba share...quite an important detail i did not mention
[05:12] <Maximander> also, jfs_logdump | tail has *ERROR* unrecognized log record type
[05:12] <Prose> Anacranom: but I am asking a test page via ssh
[05:12] <Anacranom> heh- yeah
[05:13] <BobDoel> venger, I now just get a "GRUB hard disk error"
[05:13] <Prose> Anacranom:  so since it's ssh, I figure I am basically using the terminal at the machine
[05:13] <BobDoel> No error code.
[05:13] <kindofabuzz> is it possible to truncate link file nameso n the desktop until hovered over?
[05:14] <venger> BobDoel, what did you decide to do?
[05:14] <Anacranom> Prose, ok,,,, any more factors to consider and i start calculating my grand-kid's education expenses...lol, j/k
[05:14] <BobDoel> Replace the Vista Bootloader
[05:14] <BobDoel> with GRUB
[05:14] <m1nds1llus1on> stickboy, well... you are using the 64-bit edition... I'd say try it anyway
[05:14] <Splex> what is a good ftp client for gnome besides gftp
[05:14] <venger> BobDoel, heh
[05:14] <joejoecircusboy> Splex: FileZilla?
 brb
[05:14] <ahtmly2k> yeah but then again how do i find out the pacakge name of a specific packge? or should i just state the name stated on the applications menu?
[05:14] <kindofabuzz> Splex, filezilla
[05:14] <Splex> joejoecircusboy, i will take a look, thanks
[05:15] <Splex> thanks kindofabuzz
[05:15] <Prose> Anacranom: nah, if you got your phd in impossible, it's all easy
[05:15] <joejoecircusboy> Splex: FileZilla is nice because it also runs on Windows (if you're into having the same apps on multiple platforms)
[05:15] <Anacranom> Prose, 1st thing is to get the printer, attached box, on the right ip and network
[05:15] <venger> BobDoel, you installed grub bootload to hd itself ie. /dev/sda not just a partition right?
[05:15] <Splex> don't care at all about the windows part, but good to know :)
[05:16] <BobDoel> yeah
[05:16] <Anacranom> Prose, my phd is in "improbability"
[05:16] <Splex> today i finally formatted my last remaining windows xp computer and installed ubuntu server
[05:16] <Splex> :D
[05:17] <stencoremoi> man my dick is really hard..
[05:17] <carrera> Hi
[05:17] <Prose> Anacranom: ok, well the printer is attached to a box and said box is on the network. said box also has samba file shares and they work perfectly as I am listening to music on those shares as I type
[05:17] <venger> BobDoel, i would have went the hd order change route myself, however i suppose you could either take another wack at it by booting the cd or have vista restore the MBR
[05:17] <carrera> can anyone help me with error: C compiler cannot create executables
[05:18] <joejoecircusboy> carrera: What are you trying to compile?
[05:18] <carrera> mysql
[05:18] <Splex> stencoremoi, yeah ubuntu is pretty sexy isn't it
[05:18] <Anacranom> Prose, but are there ip and settings as they were wne  u set up that printer on the remote box?
[05:18] <carrera> I've already added build-essential to no avail
[05:18] <joejoecircusboy> carrera: can you pastebin the output of the configure/make ? (use paste.ubuntu.com)
[05:18] <carrera> yessir
[05:19] <Prose> Anacranom: well, no, ip settings have been changed
[05:19] <mixandgo> any idea why battery life is so crappy on linux/ubunt ?
[05:19] <mixandgo> *ubuntu
[05:19] <carrera> joejoecircusboy, please see http://paste.ubuntu.com/43818/
[05:19] <Splex> mixandgo: define crappy
[05:20] <mixandgo> Splex: well, on OSX I get 5:30 and in Ubuntu I get 2:30 or so
[05:20] <Milfmeister> Does anybody know how I can get a nice calendar/system performance monitor on my desktop?
[05:20] <Splex> mixandgo: then you need to tweak settings
[05:20] <mixandgo> Splex: like what
[05:20] <Milfmeister> Something to fill the blank space that looks nice
[05:20] <Splex> screenbrightness is a big one
[05:21] <mixandgo> Splex: yeah I couldn't make that work
[05:21] <joejoecircusboy> carrera: cat you do a 'cat /proc/cpuinfo' and paste?
[05:21] <Cpudan80> mixandgo: I get the same battery life in *nix as I did in Windows
[05:21] <Cpudan80> maybe a few minutes difference
[05:22] <mixandgo> Cpudan80: strange
[05:22] <cari>  cari_dhani
[05:22] <carrera> joejoecircusboy, please see http://paste.ubuntu.com/43820/ for my cpu info
[05:22] <venger> Maximander, so you tried the -f switch?
[05:22] <Splex> mixandgo: look on the forums, probably someone has covered getting your screen brightness/etc settings to work
[05:22] <joejoecircusboy> carrera: if you do the configure without the fancy CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS, what happens?
[05:23] <xvagilinux> im new to linux...is it ok if i idle in here to check out all the different Q&A?
[05:23] <joejoecircusboy> carrera: i.e. try again with CFLAGS="" and CXXFLAGS=""
[05:23] <carrera> joejoecircusboy, haven't tried
[05:23] <mixandgo> Splex: yeah I did try before, but I will look again
[05:23] <carrera> joejoecircusboy, ok
[05:23] <venger> Maximander, the last restore switch is -o (omit) --- man fsck.jfs... good luck
[05:23] <venger> s/restore/resort
[05:23] <Splex> mixandgo: you have which notebook do you have?
[05:24] <Splex> ugh, that got mangled
[05:24] <Splex> mixandgo: which notebook do you have?
[05:24] <carrera> joejoecircusboy, it worked!
[05:24] <carrera> joejoecircusboy, what was the problem, -mpentium4?
[05:24] <joejoecircusboy> carrera: I'd go with something like "-O3 -march=i686"
[05:25] <EricAhn> In top, Cpu(s) means CPU  ratio? why different Cpus(s) and PID %CPU?
[05:25] <fistandandelus> quick question guys, anyone know how to change the console background?
[05:25] <joejoecircusboy> carrera: Not sure, maybe... that option isn't listed in the gcc man page, but it doesn't seem to throw an error for me either
[05:26] <carrera> joejoecircusboy, here's another error: No curses/termcap library found
[05:26] <imneat> anyone know how to get the rhythmbox desktop visualization working?
[05:26] <joejoecircusboy> carrera: you probably need to install the ncurses devel package
[05:26] <joejoecircusboy> carrera: try something like "apt-cache search -n ncurses", you should see a -devel, or -dev package
[05:27] <ckyle> if using gnome-terminatl, to change the console background just select from the terminal menu Edit / Current Profile and use the Colors tab.
[05:27] <joejoecircusboy> EricAhn: Not sure if I understand the questions.. but the Cpu(s) line is giving you a summary of CPU usage for the entire system.. the PID CPU usage is for a specific process

[05:28] <mandalorian> I need help installing a printer
[05:28] <xvagilinux> if a linux distro says inte compatible will it work with AMD?
[05:28] <stencoremoi> mandalorian go on #printer
[05:28] <xvagilinux> intel*
[05:28] <mandalorian> I have the drivers for linux, but I don't know how to use it
[05:28] <joejoecircusboy> xvagilinux: yeah..
[05:29] <carrera> joejoecircusboy, libkaya-ncurses-dev is the closest I get
[05:29] <DeAd|war> hi i'm having problems witjh my wirless connection ubuntu now
[05:29] <imneat> xvagilinux, it should - it depends on architecture. intel x86 will work with 32bit intel and amd processors.
[05:29] <ckyle> xvag: for all practical purposes Intel is the same as AMD, so I'd say that 99% chance the answer is yes
[05:29] <xvagilinux> thx
[05:29] <joejoecircusboy> carrera: that's not right.. sec
[05:29] <EricAhn> joejoecircusboy, stencoremoi : thanks
[05:29] <mandalorian> I am in printing
[05:29] <joejoecircusboy> carrera: libncurses5-dev
[05:29] <stencoremoi> carrera try #cursie
[05:29] <carrera> joejoecircusboy, installing ncurses-dev
[05:30] <carrera> stencoremoi, cursie?
[05:30] <imneat> xvagilinux, they probably say 'intel' because afaik x86 is intels architecture. most mainstream processors use it.
[05:30] <xvagilinux> imneat: gotcha thx
[05:30] <danbh_intrepid> !webcam
[05:30] <EricAhn> http://blog.chinaunix.net/ssi/searchtext.html It's chinease.. T.T
[05:31] <stencoremoi> carrera cursie is a replacement, a c++ wrapper for embeded project using the web as the launch tool
[05:31] <joejoecircusboy> carrera: uh... just install the ncurses dev package... :D
[05:31] <joejoecircusboy> stencoremoi: dude, he just wants to compile MySQL
[05:32] <stencoremoi> oh sorry
[05:32] <carrera> joejoecircusboy, I issued apt-get install ncurses-dev
[05:32] <carrera> joejoecircusboy, and it's installing libncurses5-dev
[05:32] <joejoecircusboy> carrera: ah, good stuff
[05:33] <joejoecircusboy> carrera: Funny though, I don't actually se a ncurses-dev package here on my system
[05:33] <carrera> joejoecircusboy, stencoremoi, thanks for your help
[05:33] <carrera> It's 9:05 AM over here and I better go to bed
[05:33] <joejoecircusboy> carrera: np... good luck with it!
[05:34] <carrera> thanks dude
[05:34] <carrera> I'll bother you later!  ;)
[05:34] <mandalorian> Can someone help me with my printer?
[05:35] <joejoecircusboy> mandalorian: I'd rather watch paint dry, than fix printer problems :)  (But not to say someone won't like to help :)
[05:36] <mandalorian> I have the drivers and software all I need is help to install it
[05:37] <mandalorian> I don't know how to install something if it is not in the repository
[05:37] <venger> mandalorian, did you check  http://openprinting.org/printer_list.cgi on your model first
[05:37] <mandalorian> I have to go I am returning latter
[05:37] <venger> save that url
[05:39] <dako3256> how do you set up home network with 2 computers?
[05:40] <joejoecircusboy> dako3256: Where are you stuck, specificly?
[05:41] <dako3256> both are running ubuntu, but cant see one from the other, should i be able to see them in network?
[05:41] <mandalorian> I am back
[05:41] <LtShinySides> dako3256, nope, ubuntu by default doesnt use samba
[05:41] <LtShinySides> dako3256, u have multiple options there
[05:41] <dako3256> install samba and share folder then?
[05:41] <LtShinySides> dako3256, like nfs, ssh, ftp
[05:42] <dako3256> would nfs be better than samba?
[05:42] <LtShinySides> dako3256, yes, since samba is not native to linux
[05:42] <LtShinySides> dako3256, whereas nfs has been around for decades
[05:42] <dako3256> right would not be using XP
[05:43] <dako3256> can you point me to a place to read up on setting up nfs?
[05:43] <joejoecircusboy> dako3256: Samba might be easier to configure (which may or may not be a factor depending on your experience level)
[05:43] <LtShinySides> dako3256, http://www.ubuntugeek.com/nfs-server-and-client-configuration-in-ubuntu.html
[05:43] <LtShinySides> joejoecircusboy, i disagree nfs configuration is pretty straightforward
[05:44] <dako3256> experience level not that high, but know why around a little bit
[05:44] <krishna> can someone guide me thru configuring squid proxy?
[05:44] <dako3256> thanks for link, appreciate the help
[05:45] <LtShinySides> dako3256, np
[05:45] <ckyle> X
[05:45] <clouder`grr> does anyone know of a utility that can make my mouse more precise when I hold down a button or something?
[05:45] <joejoecircusboy> LtShinySides: A simple, insecure nfs setup is somewhat straightforward... but once you get into any level of security, it's a PITA
[05:45] <tj1515> anyone know a good howto on creating a swap drive i have a fat32 backup partition that is not being used
[05:46] <clouder`grr> I like to have my mouse on fastest least sensitive settings, but once in a while I can't grab something and would like to toggle some higher sens for a second
[05:46] <venger> krishna, i'd try application specific channels such as #squid , though my approach would be to clarify what you are failing to understand
[05:46] <joejoecircusboy> tj1515: why do you want to do that?
[05:46] <tj1515> thought it would help out my proformance i could be wrong :)
[05:47] <krishna> venger, i have installed webmin
[05:47] <LtShinySides> joejoecircusboy, same goes for samba
[05:47] <joejoecircusboy> LtShinySides: SMB has far stronger security, by default
[05:47] <LtShinySides> joejoecircusboy, nfs is quick and dirty for something secure i just use ssh and sshfs package
[05:47] <krishna> thru webmin i want to configure squid proxy srvr
[05:47] <LtShinySides> joejoecircusboy, yea thats true
[05:47] <tj1515> joejoecircusboy: so no need for swap drive
[05:48] <joejoecircusboy> tj1515: Do you find you're running with alot of swap usage?
[05:48] <krishna> i initially want to know how to set up the incoming ip that is the default gateway
[05:48] <krishna> from the adsl router
[05:48] <squirkey> hello all
[05:48] <ahtmly2k> does there exists a counter-strike-like game for ubuntu?
[05:48] <tj1515> not sure how to tell i'm kinda new to this
[05:48] <ahtmly2k> WINE doesnt count
[05:48] <LtShinySides> ahtmly2k, americas army
[05:48] <krishna> say for example the defaultgw is <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:48] <joejoecircusboy> tj1515: Generally, you don't want to be doing alot of IO with swap... and if you are, you want swap on your fastest drive, not some old spare you have kicking around
[05:49] <krishna> how do i add it on sq proxy
[05:49] <ahtmly2k> really? download path?
[05:49] <joejoecircusboy> tj1515: how much RAM do you have installed?
[05:49] <ahtmly2k> 2gb
[05:49] <ahtmly2k> oh was that for me?
[05:49] <tj1515> joejoecircusboy: 1gb, my system just seems to be getting slow thought it may help
[05:49] <squirkey> Need help with getting the onboard wifi card in a dell latitude d600 to scan for existing wifi networks.  Anyone know how?
[05:49] <squirkey> Or point me to the right place?
[05:50] <joejoecircusboy> tj1515: In practice, it probably won't make any real difference.. However, if merely want to know how to do it, I'd be happy to walk you through it
[05:50] <LtShinySides> ahtmly2k, http://americasarmy.filefront.com/files/Americas_Army/Official_Releases/Full_Install;983
[05:50] <LtShinySides> ahtmly2k, linux version hasnt been updated for a while but ppl still play it
[05:50] <amicrawler> is there a way to keep vnic from booting up all the time
[05:51] <ahtmly2k> alright... i'll check it out thanx
[05:51] <joejoecircusboy> LtShinySides: Speaking of nfs security... have you ever setup nfs with kerberos?
[05:52] <ahtmly2k> oh 1 more thing... i'm downloading openarena its taking its time... wht do i do to abort it? and can i resume it later on?
[05:52] <tj1515> joejoecircusboy: do u have any ideas on how i could get a better idea of why my system seems to be slower
[05:52] <ahtmly2k> im using terminal
[05:52] <joejoecircusboy> tj1515: sure.  Also programs seem to darken out to think alot more often then used to
[05:54] <tj1515> i meant flash heavy pages react slowly
[05:55] <tj1515> its late :)
[05:55] <ahtmly2k> haha
[05:55] <joejoecircusboy> tj1515: Flash has a bad habit of consuming all the CPU after awhile....
[05:55] <ahtmly2k>  i'm downloading openarena its taking its time... wht do i do to abort it? and can i resume it later on? im using terminal
[05:55] <joejoecircusboy> tj1515: when things get slow, you can use the 'top' command (or System -> Administration -> System monitor) to get an idea which programs are using the system resources
[05:56] <osmosis> help. I unplugged my computer so I could move my desk, and when I plugged everything in and turned it back on, now Xorg will only start into failsafe mode.
[05:56] <l3d>  whats the link for pasting screenshots?
[05:56] <osmosis> I cant get out of 640x480
[05:57] <tj1515> joejoecircusboy: thanks i'm going to keep a better eye on my processes to see if i can find the problem
[05:57] <osmosis> my xorg.log isn't showing any errors. why the heck is it using Xorg.conf.failsafe ??
[05:58] <joshhunt> How can i convert all .wav files in a folder to .mp3?
[05:58] <l3d>  whats the link for pasting screenshots?
[05:58] <joejoecircusboy> tj1515: also, I recommend you install the Firefox plugin 'FlashBlock'.. it will replace flash sections with a placeholder image, which you can click after the page is loaded to see the flash animation.
[05:58] <tj1515> joejoecircusboy: thanks i'll try it too
[05:58] <joejoecircusboy> tj1515: 2 advantages with 'FlashBlock', 1. prevent flash heavy pages from killing Firefox, 2. hides most annoying ads
[05:58] <cruddpuppet> okay now this is just being silly:
[05:58] <cruddpuppet> The selected location does not have enough space to store the disc image (0 MiB needed).
[05:59] <cruddpuppet> I spent an hour deleting garbage I did not need and now I get this error that is not letting me burn my cd -.-
[06:00] <l3d> cruddopuppet try a new cd
[06:00] <cruddpuppet> l3d: I have. This is my fourth. ;-;
[06:00] <l3d> :O
[06:00] <falemant> yo i have an error when i run fsck: "Unable to resolve" and then my root partition's ID #
[06:01] <falemant> why is this happening?
[06:01] <joejoecircusboy> falemant: can you pastebin the output?

[06:02] <OrangeKyo> hi, new to linux, would you say linux users are warm and welcoming community? or more solo artists who spend time working on only their own machine?
[06:02] <falemant> yea sure joejoecircusboy
[06:03] <falemant> http://pastebin.com/d249d2051
[06:03] <falemant> thati s the UUID of my root partition
[06:03] <joejoecircusboy> OrangeKyo: We're generally warm and friendly as long as a) you're not a newbie, and b) you don't attempt to talk with us or ask any questions :P
[06:04] <ckyle> OrangeKyo: offtopic, please take to #ubuntu-offtopic   ;-)
[06:04] <falemant> when i told my brother i was installing linux he told me to grow a beard and a beer belly, does that answer your question OrangeKyo?
[06:05] <joejoecircusboy> falemant: can you post the command you're running too?
[06:05] <Amerikan> can someone tell me some good ways to customize my look of ubuntu?
[06:05] <OrangeKyo> o.O, wow, ok i guess those responses answer my question.
[06:05] <falemant> i'm running fsck -C
[06:06] <l3d>  whats the link for pasting screenshots?
[06:06] <joejoecircusboy> falemant: you're not specifying the device to check?
[06:06] <OrangeKyo> i think i will go back to windows then, thanks anyway, sorry to bother.
[06:06] <falemant> no i'm not specifying the device to check
[06:06] <falemant> i want it to check everything
[06:06] <Amerikan> OrangeKyo:  Why?
[06:06] <joejoecircusboy> OrangeKyo: lol, you do realize a joke when you see one?
[06:06] <Amerikan> OrangeKyo:  The ubuntu community is more supportive then a camp full of stoner nudists
[06:07] <joejoecircusboy> Amerikan: hahah.. nice
[06:07] <IdleOne> OrangeKyo: you are more then welcome to stay here. just that we try to keep this channel ( room ) for support only
[06:07] <falemant> joejoecircusboy, it throws that error when i specify an FS as well
[06:07] <joejoecircusboy> Amerikan: that's pretty supportive!
[06:07] <IdleOne> if you want to chat type /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:07] <falemant> IdleOne, you're not helping
[06:07] <Amerikan> joejoecircusboy: I'm new to ubuntu And I've learned that fast
[06:08] <IdleOne> falemant: did not see you offer any info
[06:08] <joejoecircusboy> falemant: when you say FS, do you mean something like /dev/sda1?
[06:08] <ckyle> OrangeKyo: what everybody was saying was "Welcome to Linux"... note the emoticons
[06:08] <falemant> well i tried fsck /home and it gave me a similar error, but with /home's UUID
[06:09] <joejoecircusboy> falemant: oh, I see.. might be some confusion here
[06:09] <bullgard4> top show that the process whiptail consumes 95% of my CPU time. I did not call the whiptail program. What program might have called the whiptail process?
[06:09] <falemant> joejoecircusboy do you need more info? i can pastebin my fdisk -l as well if you need it
[06:10] <joejoecircusboy> falemant: ya, that be great
[06:10] <l3d> hey is there a way to stop nautilus from opening everytime i stick a cd in with out messing up the fact that it mounts the disk?
[06:11] <brutus> does anyone know a doc to pdf converter for ubuntu?
[06:11] <joejoecircusboy> l3d: less than useful answer: Yes, but I don't know how offhand :)
[06:11] <falemant> http://pastebin.com/m561145e7
[06:11] <LtShinySides> brutus, openoffice
[06:11] <falemant> btw this might seem like a strange way to partition, and it is. i don't know why i made the root partition so huge. the /home was supposed to be 10gb but i accidentally made it 3 lol
[06:12] <ckyle> l3d: I think I right clicked on the mounted drive icon on my desktop and there was an option under there...
[06:12] <joejoecircusboy> falemant: you want to run fsck on hard drive device files (/dev/sd*), not mount points (/home, /var, etc)
[06:13] <joejoecircusboy> falemant: if you want to run fsck on your /home filesystem, check the output of the 'mount' command to see which hard drive device file it's located on
[06:13] <brutus> LtShinySides, hey thanks a lott!
[06:14] <LtShinySides> brutus, np
[06:17] <falemant> joejoecircusboy, the man page for fsck said i can do it on a mount point
[06:18] <joejoecircusboy> falemant: the method that requires the least dependencies is the direct device file method... other methods rely on other things working (which obviously in this case, are not)
[06:19] <Digital0> what is the correct way to mount a vista/samba share in hardy?
[06:19] <Digital0> (non-fstab)
[06:19] <ckyle> falemant: i thought that doing fsck on a mount point could possibly corrupt your filesystem... I thought I read a warning saying something like that... so, please be careful.
[06:20] <joejoecircusboy> ckyle: he left
[06:20] <joejoecircusboy> Digital0: there are multiple ways of accessing an SMB share... I'm not sure any one way is more 'correct'.  What do you mean by correct?
[06:20] <Digital0> joejoecircusboy: to mount it, so that frontend applications can access it as any other mounted location
[06:21] <Digital0> joejoecircusboy: and not a fstab/permanent/automatic mount, because it's a wireless laptop
[06:21] <joejoecircusboy> Digital0: fstab is the most compatible (since it splices the share directly into the filesystem)
[06:21] <Digital0> joejoecircusboy: it needs to be ... on demand, per se
[06:21] <joejoecircusboy> Digital0: failing that... you can use gvfs (or whatever it's called.. the gnome file system)
[06:22] <LtShinySides> Digital0, mount -F cifs -o username=x,password=y server:/share /mountpoint
[06:22] <joejoecircusboy> Digital0: Places -> connect to server
[06:23] <LtShinySides> Digital0, just put this line in a script make executable and put on your desktop there you go its on demand
[06:24] <JaNah> oi
[06:25] <Digital0> LtShinySides: it errored on me
[06:25] <JaNah> alguem me ensina a mexe nesse trco?

[06:33] <linxuz3r> you guys know an application that has a front end css editing?
[06:34] <LtShinySides> Digital0, nice now put this line in a file that starts with #!/bin/bash
[06:34] <EmKed> How do i configure the package so that its will be statically linked?
[06:34] <LtShinySides> Digital0, chmod a+x filename and you have an executable that will mount the share when u double click it
[06:34] <LtShinySides> Digital0, to be able to resolve windows names u have to install winbind
[06:35] <LtShinySides> Digital0, and edit your /etc/nsswitch.conf so that those lines read:
[06:35] <LtShinySides> Digital0, hosts:          files wins mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns mdns4
[06:35] <LtShinySides> Digital0, networks:       files wins
[06:36] <Digital0> LtShinySides: advantages of those nsswitch edits?
[06:36] <fillzero_> hello
[06:36] <LtShinySides> Digital0, you'll be able to use computer name instead of ip
[06:36] <EmKed> anybody knows how to configure a package so that it will be statically built?

[06:45] <dida> how can i find the package that provide the nslookup command?
[06:46] <joejoecircusboy> dida: install the 'apt-file' tool, which you can use to find packages which provide a specific file, for example "apt-file search nslookup"

[06:50] <lint> joejoecircusboy: okay

[06:52] <lint> joejoecircusboy: it appears that way
[06:53] <joejoecircusboy> threefcata: one more idea - try wrapping each full searchpath substitution in quotes
[06:53] <joejoecircusboy> threefcata: e.g. use '$LABHOME/lib/lucene-core-2.1.0.jar', instead of '$LABHOME'/lib/lucene-core-2.1.0.jar
[06:54] <joejoecircusboy> lint: does it do this for all wmv files, or just a specific one?

[07:03] <threefcata> joejoecircusboy: no luck..
[07:04] <joejoecircusboy> threefcata: I think your embedded variables are the source of the problem. If you really want to get this working, I would try doing it with a single variable first (CLASSPATH), then fix the substitution
[07:04] <joejoecircusboy> threefcata: personally, i would just drop the space from the dir name ;)

[07:25] <falemant> heyas  guys, is it ok to hit control+c while fsck is running?
[07:25] <falemant> i'mrunning fsckfrom liveCD
[07:25] <falemant> for some reason it's cheacking blockby block even thought i have EXT3, so it should just chk the journal
[07:25] <snegtul> shit
[07:25] <tleuser> test
[07:26] <snegtul> i can't riddle out how to add a ringtone to my phone
[07:26] <snegtul> i got the file copied there
[07:26] <snegtul> no clue how to make it show in the list
[07:26] <falemant> so yea is it ok to control+c fsck while it's running?
[07:27] <falemant> anyone?
[07:27] <Amerikan> snegtul: You generally have to buy them. You can add music to listen too though. I'm not sure if that belongs here though
[07:27] <snegtul> not a good idea
[07:27] <snegtul> i got the file Amerikan
[07:27] <snegtul> its the last bit that is confounding me
[07:27] <emet> joejoecircusboy, I made one myself
[07:27] <emet> /exec -o echo "cpu:[`awk -F":" '/model name/ { print $2 }' /proc/cpuinfo` ] mem:[ `free -m | awk '/Mem/ { print $3 "MB used of " $2 "MB"}'` ]"
[07:27] <emet> cpu:[ Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.80GHz ] mem:[ 886MB used of 1001MB ]
[07:27] <ushimitsudoki1> falemant: i've done it a bunch when rebooting and it starts checking but i don't want to wait. haven't seen any problems...that's all i can say
[07:28] <snegtul> falemant if your system is asking for a FSCK let it finish
[07:28] <falemant> no i did it by myself
[07:28] <falemant> also, i have ext3, and did a fsck, it said everything was ok
[07:28] <snegtul> oh, well should be o.k. provided there is no I/O happening on the fs
[07:28] <falemant> then i did another one and for seom reason instead of checking the journal, it checked bloc kby block
[07:29] <falemant> no there is no io, i'm on a livecd
[07:29] <falemant> unmounted everything
[07:29] <snegtul> oh yes ctrl-c is fine
[07:29] <falemant> ok cool
[07:29] <snegtul> i would only discourage that on a dirty fs
[07:29] <snegtul> e.g. one with errors
[07:29] <joejoecircusboy> emet:  do you often forget what CPU you purchased? :P
[07:30] <xvagilinux> okay smb.cong says owner is root...i dont have a user root, how do i change the permissions?
[07:30] <falemant> aight i just ctrl-c
[07:30] <falemant> but heres the thing
[07:30] <falemant> it's saying everything is fine, but
[07:30] <xvagilinux> smb.conf*
[07:30] <falemant> i lost a couple of files
[07:30] <snegtul> you know, i went with a palm phone because they usually play nicely with linux
[07:30] <falemant> how can i check my lost+found for them?
[07:30] <snegtul> but this ring-tone stuff is perplexing me
[07:31] <Kitu> please, in xchat, how to deny input_perc_color just for one line ?
[07:31] <snegtul> its an "Army of Darkness" ring tone =)
[07:31] <falemant> how do i check lost+found? do i need to use sudo or something? i get permission denied
[07:31] <Ab3L> hello
[07:31] <Kitu> elo
[07:32] <snegtul> lost+found is only avail to root
[07:32] <snegtul> so "sudo su -"
[07:32] <xvagilinux> i have the choice between my name and Sabayon User....when i installed i didnt get prompted to enter a password for root...so idk what to do
[07:32] <drogomir> hi, I have some strange problem with my DNS... I must change it quick and don't know where to ask for help if immediate answer. is this a good place to ask about DNS problems? Cause I can't find any specialized DNS channel...

[07:33] <snegtul> not really drogmir, but i'm good with DNS
[07:33] <falemant> snegtul i just did that but, for some reason there is nothing in the lost+found folder
[07:33] <falemant> at least nothing that i can see
[07:33] <drogomir> snegtul: ok :)
[07:33] <snegtul> falemant, good!
[07:33] <Cpudan80> eccentricity: Its built into gnome
[07:33] <falemant> snegtol: but i did lose some files
[07:33] <falemant> i lost like 3 or 4 files
[07:33] <venger> xvagilinux, ubuntu installs without a root password so login is disabled.  use sudo <command> or sudo -s for a root shell as appropriate
[07:33] <snegtul> only orphaned shit should go there
[07:33] <Cpudan80> eccentricity: left click on the network manager applet on the taskbar, you'll see all active APs
[07:34] <drogomir> could you check norco.pl domain? with whois and dig? (whois norco.pl ; dig -t ANY norco.pl. ; dig -t ANY whois norco.pl. @ns1.tion.pl ) - whois shows ns1.tion.pl and ns2.tion.pl, but dig shows old ns1.infocomp.pl for me....

[07:37] <eccentricity> ushimitsudoki1, thanks
[07:37] <snegtul> what is the anomaly you're seeing drogmir?
[07:38] <venger> xvagilinux, just as i described or perhaps there is a text editor that uses gksudo, i would simply use sudo -s and then run vi file.ext but you may want to use something like gedit or whatever
[07:38] <snegtul> i'll query my nameservers
[07:38] <drogomir> http://pastie.org/267113
[07:38] <snegtul> checking
[07:39] <xvagilinux> yeah thats what i was trying to use was gedit...im so sorry im new to linux all together and may seem to be asking a lot of dumb questions, but i dont know any better
[07:41] <venger> xvagilinux, i've been a debian sid user for many years and while i like ubuntu, i can't say I always know the ubuntu way myself either... but there will always be more than one way to skin the cat in *nix land
[07:41] <Tenshihan>  (2)No such file or directory: exec of '/usr/lib/cgi-bin/hworld.pl' failed
[07:41] <neilesh> how do i install a tar file
[07:41] <TerMight> hey guys, ready to have some fun?
[07:41] <Tenshihan> you un tar a file
[07:41] <neilesh> then...
[07:41] <TerMight> I made this a bit ago, and no one yet has solved it.
[07:42] <TerMight> 10, 16, 22, 34, __ What is next?
[07:42] <Esquilo> hello all
[07:42] <Esquilo> folks
[07:42] <ushimitsudoki1> !ot | TerMight
[07:42] <neilesh> i have "unzipped" to a separate dirctory
[07:42] <neilesh> then tried ./confgire
[07:42] <neilesh> get no such command
[07:42] <neilesh> run a make
[07:42] <neilesh> and then make install
[07:42] <Tenshihan> 46
[07:42] <neilesh> nuthin happens
[07:42] <shentino> Does version 8.04 Hardy Heron's install program support preparing and then using an LVM setup?
[07:43] <Tenshihan> TerMight 46
[07:43] <TerMight> Thank you, sorry ushimitsudoki1, I will go to that channel.
[07:43] <venger> neilesh, i think you mean ./configure
[07:43] <TerMight> No, it isn't 46
[07:43] <Tenshihan> lies
[07:43] <ushimitsudoki1> shentino: yes. check here maybe: http://www.debuntu.org/how-to-install-ubuntu-over-lvm-filesystem
[07:43] <neilesh> yup ..bad at typing :(
[07:44] <Tenshihan> it went
[07:44] <johninlex> hello all
[07:44] <Tenshihan> 10 - +6 +6 + 12
[07:44] <venger> ushimitsudoki1, thats a server and alternate CD option right?
[07:44] <Tenshihan> so the next logical step would be another +12 then a +18 + 18
[07:44] <johninlex> anyone know how to edit scripts
[07:44] <Esquilo> there is a good mac widget that allows to drag one image to it then it sends the file to imageshack and after send you the link. Is there anything like that for Ubuntu?
[07:44] <Tenshihan> your mom does
[07:44] <TerMight> Nope, sorry Tenshihan, that is not the answer.
[07:44] <ushimitsudoki1> venger": actually i think it is something you have to set up - not a default right out of the box - not 100$% on that
[07:44] <grendal_prime> hutch?
[07:44] <TerMight> go to #ubuntu-offtopic and keep trying
[07:46] <grendal_prime> Esquilo: what do you use that for?
[07:46] <johninlex> anyone know how to edit scripts in conky
[07:46] <jin> when compressing a fodler to .tar.gz my firefox turns to dark  from time to time. why?
[07:46] <ushimitsudoki1> johninlex: sure, ask away i will answer if i can
[07:46] <kristano> hey does anyone know how to password-protect a tarball?
[07:46] <nnull> anyone tell me how i bring up my shared folders?
[07:47] <venger> jin power management?
[07:47] <shentino> Cool...
[07:47] <Trouncing> nnull: /usr/local/share; /usr/share?
[07:47] <johninlex> well I have conky finally working but I would like to move it to the bottom left rather than the top right
[07:47] <shentino> Will the install program ever support this or is a manual runaround the only way?
[07:47] <Esquilo> for example... I do wanna take a sceen shot and send you. There is any program, patch widget or any other thing that do it easier to me? grendal_prime
[07:47] <nnull> trouncing, i havent done it for the first tme
[07:48] <johninlex> <ushimitsudoki,   well I have conky finally working but I would like to move it to the bottom left rather than the top right
[07:48] <Tenshihan> what would cause this to happen?
[07:48] <Tenshihan> 2)No such file or directory: exec of '/usr/lib/cgi-bin/hworld.pl' failed
[07:48] <ushimitsudoki1> johninlex: look at the "alignment" setting. Will bottom_left do what you want?
[07:48] <Joshooa> Tenshihan: hello world in that location didn't work cause the file doesn't exist?
[07:48] <Tenshihan> the file exits
[07:48] <Tenshihan> or it'd 404
[07:49] <Neseth> Esquilo man, there is a nice curl script that do basicaly the same thing
[07:49] <johninlex> bottom left
[07:49] <Tenshihan> that's only a helloworld program too
[07:49] <Esquilo> humm
[07:49] <grendal_prime> couple of things would be easyer(relative phrase) One of wich, simply vnc out your desktop (view only) the other would be set up a web server on your machine, save your screen shot there and send the ip to me.
[07:50] <ushimitsudoki1> johninlex: You might want something like this in your ~/.conkyrc: "alignment bottom_left" (no quotes in actual file)
[07:50] <grendal_prime> those are two that come to mind anyway.
[07:50] <johninlex> ushimitsudoki # Text alignment, other possible values are commented
[07:50] <johninlex> #alignment top_left
[07:50] <johninlex> alignment top_right
[07:50] <johninlex> #alignment bottom_left
[07:50] <johninlex> #alignment bottom_right
[07:50] <FloodBot3> johninlex: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.

[07:53] <Esquilo> it is, if it is simples
[07:53] <Esquilo> *simple
[07:53] <ushimitsudoki> johninlex: well try it...do a "killall -USR1 conky" from the terminal to have conky reload the settings
[07:53] <kennyyu> any hints? i've reinstalled mplayer/w32codecs....
[07:54] <Neseth> Esquilo save this script as a file, than chmod +x it, for example i saved it with the name "public", so u just ./public image.jpg
[07:55] <Esquilo> hummmmmmmmmm
[07:55] <Esquilo> Neseth, I get it!
[07:55] <Esquilo> interesting
[07:56] <Neseth> Esquilo u'll need to have curl installed on ur system, i dunno if ubuntu has it by default
[07:56] <snegtul> nope
[07:56] <Esquilo> Neseth, is there any problem if I save it in : /home/julio/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts
[07:56] <snegtul> "apt-get install curl"

[07:57] <Esquilo> Neseth, is necessary install curl?
[07:57] <Neseth> Esquilo yes
[07:57] <Esquilo> or is is already installed ?
[07:57] <snegtul> not for any technical reasons though
[07:57] <Esquilo> oh ok ;)
[07:58] <snegtul> HEAD and GET are far too handy in my business
[07:58] <Neseth> Esquilo, snegtul said its not installed by default, so u should install
[07:58] <Esquilo> ok
[07:58] <snegtul> i missed part of the conversation Nes, whats the problem we're trying to solve?
[07:59] <Neseth> snegtul we're not trying to solve a problem, i just gave him a script to public images on imageshack using curl =p
[07:59] <Esquilo> nothing
[07:59] <snegtul> oh right on
[07:59] <snegtul> yep, gonna be kinda hard to do w/o curl =)
[07:59] <Esquilo> I looking for a program which help me with image upload
[07:59] <Esquilo> but it still is "hard"
[08:00] <snegtul> neseth's advice and script was good then =)
[08:00] <Neseth> snegtul like in http://paste.ubuntu.com/43836/ =D
[08:00] <Esquilo> is there any "friendly" programa which help me with it?
[08:00] <Esquilo> no no no ...

[08:00] <snegtul> define friendly/
[08:01] <Esquilo> the problem is it still is an script

[08:02] <Esquilo> 1 - take one screen shot and automatic it send me back the imageshack's link
[08:02] <Neseth> Esquilo u can make an script with import -w root and use curl
[08:02] <earthengine> #ubuntu-cn
[08:02] <nnull> how do i bring up the thing that lets me choose my workgroup please? for samba sharing
[08:02] <Sahil> hey this is Avi here]
[08:03] <nnull> System > admin > shared folders isnt there

[08:03] <arvind_khadri> Hi where do the chats of kopete get saved??
[08:03] <Sahil> i am looking for a package for MP3 and videos
[08:03] <snegtul> but "gnome-screenshot" does a bit of that too
[08:03] <Esquilo> snegtul, humm
[08:03] <snegtul> it'll snap a screenie, and do $THING that u tell it too
[08:03] <Esquilo> look..
[08:04] <kennyyu> Sahil: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats#head-6c942d1939d97331f96e42b63774003fde7daed5
[08:04] <ushimitsudoki> sahil: you want ubuntu-restricted-extras maybe?
[08:04] <Sahil> thanks kennyyu
[08:04] <shentino> kaffeine is a good player
[08:04] <earthengine> #lfs-cn
[08:04] <snegtul> i used to use it to publish screenies of my desktops to a website i had setup for myself before blogging was in vogue =)
[08:04] <Sahil> kennyyu:  i hope it supports all codecs
[08:04] <Esquilo> there is a Mac widget which you can drag any image to it and it send this image to imageshack and send you the link back
[08:05] <Neseth> i just fell like and idiot speaking english with him while both speak portuguese, but whatever
[08:05] <snegtul> hrm, specific to imageshack huh?
[08:05] <Esquilo> i'm looking for ANYTHING as simples as this
[08:05] <snegtul> therein lies the rub
[08:06] <Sahil> i am looking for a package which allows me to play mp3 and divx
[08:06] <shentino> All your base are belong to us
[08:06] <Esquilo> ¬¬
[08:06] <snegtul> i am certain there's a tool that a fellow hacker has made to do just that, its just a matter of googling to find it =)
[08:06] <kennyyu> Sahil: not sure if it can be for divx. but it's sure for mp3...
[08:07] <snegtul> [blutgens@archimedes]:~ $ apt-cache search imageshack
[08:07] <snegtul> photo-uploader - Command line photo uploader
[08:07] <Gitch> Does anyone here know much about wpa_supplicant?
[08:07] <snegtul> try that esquilo?
[08:07] <Sahil> kennyyu: I have installed one before but i have forgotten the name
[08:07] <snegtul> Photo uploader is a command line utility (and Python module) for
[08:07] <snegtul>  uploading photos to minilabs for printing or to any service for image
[08:07] <snegtul>  hosting. It currently supports only a few minilab services in Czechia
[08:07] <snegtul>  and some hosting services like ImageShack, but can be easily extended
[08:07] <snegtul>  to support others.

[08:09] <snegtul> wth, i didn't get punted off the other irc networks i'm on
[08:09] <snegtul> could it be that freenode hate me? =P
[08:10] <Sahil> i am looking for a package for mp3 and divx codecs
[08:10] <shentino> Depends on your players
[08:10] <snegtul> apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras?
[08:10] <Sahil> snegtul: does that install all packages
[08:11] <Sahil> for divx also
[08:11] <snegtul> tends to fix all my codec needs =)
[08:11] <snegtul> yah sahil
[08:11] <Sahil> snegtul: thanks
[08:11] <Wannabe> Is there anyway to add more reslolution higher then 1024x768, i know i can handle 1280x1024.
[08:12] <snegtul> when i build a new ubuntu box for personal use desktop-wise, i do that, and it tends to solve all the annoying probs
[08:12] <joakim> Hi, I want to make two sessions, one with comiz and one "clean" with just xfce4

[08:12] <Sahil> snegtul: it is not working
[08:13] <snegtul> not enough information sahil =)
[08:13] <snegtul> "it broken" not enough info to help me to help you =)
[08:13] <arvind_khadri> !not working | Sahil
[08:13] <pcuser> Guys, I have a presentation on monday to explain the insecurities of WEP. I completed the project but I would like to demonstrate how easy it is to crack it. I was able to do this before with my Alpha Network AUS036H usb wifi card (rtl8187) on Fedora 7. I've applied the patch and installed aircrack but it's not working.
[08:13] <Neseth> Wannabe u can try reconfiguring xorg
[08:13] <ushimitsudoki> joakim: do you really need sessions for that? you could use fusion icon and toggle compiz on and off from the panel?
[08:14] <pcuser> anyone here feel like trying to help me on this?
[08:14] <snegtul> Sahil, its weekend time mate, i'm half-in-the-bag =)
[08:14] <Neseth> pcuser if u need and distro with patchs for wirelles sharking, u should try backtrack
[08:14] <Neseth> pcuser it comes with a lot of patched drivers
[08:15] <joakim> ushimitsudoki: well, I guess you are right. How do ii make this fusion icon?
[08:15] <Wannabe> Neseth,  whats the cmd for that?
[08:15] <pcuser> ya, that's what my buddy was telling me. I would still like to get it going though in Ubuntu 8.04
[08:16] <Neseth> Wannabe xorgconfig
[08:16] <ushimitsudoki> joakim: package is in the repos: "sudo apt-get install fusion-icon"
[08:16] <joakim> Is it like a panel icon that I just click to turn it on and off? That sounds kind of greate actually
[08:16] <snegtul> heh this almost like when the #gentoo channel was new, we devs used to be able to help people
[08:16] <orly_owl> http://pastebin.ca/1195537 Any ideas?
[08:16] <snegtul> i had thought #ubuntu was super busy
[08:16] <Wannabe> Neseth, like dpkg -r xorg ?
[08:17] <ushimitsudoki> joakim: exactly. i use it under xfce to switch on/off compiz/emerald (although i am using compiz less and less, since xfwm now has compositing built in)
[08:17] <Sahil> people tell me package for playing audio and video
[08:17] <Neseth> Wannabe dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[08:17] <snegtul> hell i remember having the ability to be helpful on #debian too
[08:18] <joakim> ushimitsudoki: greate help! I ran the code in the terminal, now where is my icon? =) Do I have to reboot?
[08:18] <ushimitsudoki> Sahil: already told you ubuntu-restricted-extras. if you need more obscure codecs you will have to search those out specifically
[08:18] <Neseth> pcuser i'm reading the hcl wiki, http://backtrack.offensive-security.com/index.php/HCL:Wireless, it would do, ur card is totally suported, including injection

[08:18] <Sahil> ushimitsudoki:  please give me the package name
[08:19] <pcuser> does this tell me that it's not going into monitor mode?
[08:19] <snegtul> Sahil, or check out medibuntu

[08:21] <joakim> ushimitsudoki: Now, how do I make it enabled on startup?

[08:24] <ushimitsudoki> joakim: yup
[08:24] <pcuser> well, i applied the correct patch just to let you know. And followed the instruction from aircrack and it applied successfully. I was just curious as to why my packet injection is not working. I followed the exact same steps in FC and had no problems
[08:24] <joakim> ushimitsudoki: Thanx alot for your help!
[08:24] <ushimitsudoki> joakim: quite welcome enjoy!
[08:25] <Parsec300> Hi, anybody know why truecrypt won't mount a container unless you specify read-only? This is also true in OSX.
[08:25] <pcuser> i understand where you are coming from. it's hard to be specific sometimes
[08:25] <ushimitsudoki> Parsec300: i don't have that problem. my truecrypt container is read write

[08:28] <Nigra4justice> oopps
[08:28] <pcuser> i had this working on FC7 but I listened to my friend who told me Ubuntu is better OS
[08:28] <joakim> ushimitsudoki: Greate tip! How do I turn "saving apps" off?
[08:29] <pcuser> i guess i don't have a choice but to use BT3 or re-install FC
[08:29] <remote> pcuser: i did that a while back with a different rtl
[08:29] <nnull> im trying to make a VPN for VNC i want to connect the XP box from the ubuntu box?
[08:29] <nnull> i need ssh for this?
[08:29] <ushimitsudoki> joakim: Settings Manager > Sessions and Startup  (that is a permanent change. the logout dialog has a checkbox so you can toggle it as you like each time if you want to test things out first)
[08:29] <remote> hold on
[08:30] <ushimitsudoki> nnull: you can tunnel vnc through an ssh connection ... that is simpler than setting up a vpn i think
[08:30] <pcuser> i'm running Linux pcuser-laptop 2.6.24-19-generic #1 SMP Wed Aug 20 22:56:21 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux
[08:30] <Neseth> nnull u need ssh if u want ur vnc encrypted behind ur ssh connection
[08:30] <Neseth> nnull like tunneled
[08:30] <nnull> ahh ic
[08:30] <pcuser> installed aircrack-ng 0.9.3
[08:30] <joakim> ushimitsudoki: Once again, thank you for your help! Iĺl get back to you if I have more questions for sure =)
[08:31] <pcuser> applied rtl8187_linux_26.1010.0622.2006
[08:31] <pcuser> patch but still can't get it to go
[08:31] <shentino> pcuser: what are you trying to do?
[08:31] <Parsec300> Well, ushimitsudoki and remote, my osx verison tells met there's no mountable filesystem.
[08:32] <ushimitsudoki> nnull: man vncviewer and check out the -via switch ... another option is nomachineNX which is much faster for me ... somethings to check out
[08:32] <zoed> hi. On a computer of mine running xubuntu, the screen resolution changes randomly when rebooting. I mean: most of the time, after booting, gdm and X have the correct resolutions, but sometimes after booting their resolution is way to low. The live-cd (xubuntu) detected the correct resolution, I copied over the xorg.conf from the live cd, but the problem still persists. Can anybody help me to get the correct resolution at every boot?
[08:32] <ushimitsudoki> Parsec300: wouldn't know about OSX
[08:32] <nnull> ok cool, and what vnc server would you recommend for windows xp?
[08:32] <pcuser> get my rtl8187 alpha Network AWSUS036H working with packet injection, i had this working on FC7 until i installed ubuntu
[08:32] <pcuser> it's for a presentation at school on Monday
[08:32] <Parsec300> ushimitsudoki, same problem for me under Ubuntu though.
[08:32] <shentino> what's packet injection?
[08:32] <nnull> ushimitsudoki, ok cool, and what vnc server would you recommend for windows xp?
[08:33] <remote> pcuser: were you using the same driver?
[08:33] <ushimitsudoki> nnull: real vnc i guess ... i don't take winxp seriously so take it for what it's worth
[08:33] <nnull> shentino, its where you inject yourself with internet data, its a dangerous drug habit
[08:33] <Neseth> nnull on my xp i use tightvnc server, it do the job quite well
[08:33] <pcuser> shit, i can't remember.. i installed it a couple of months ago to get internet for my buddy since he was broke :-p
[08:34] <nnull> ok cheers
[08:34] <ushimitsudoki> Parsec300: any errors or anything?
[08:34] <nnull> ushimitsudoki, yea well XP is the best os for what that pc does (rips movies/office stuff)
[08:34] <pcuser> i think i'm going to have to go with bt3
[08:34] <nnull> its a old box
[08:35] <n3m0> anyone mind checking there iptables and see if there is a chain called ALLOW_IP there
[08:35] <Neseth> pcuser the live cd does the sharking quite well, u wont even need to install it
[08:35] <pcuser> i can't wast to much time since i need to build a security system using mindzone
[08:35] <n3m0> thats anyone who is on a hardy/intrepid box
[08:36] <zoed> on xubuntu, my screen resolution changes randomly when I boot.
[08:36] <Parsec300> ushimitsudoki, only that there's no mountable filesystem. It will mount though, if I specify read-only
[08:36] <shentino> Oh that reminds me
[08:36] <shentino> I just did a double dist-upgrade starting from 7.04
[08:37] <shentino> and my gdm's screenres is 1280x768 something.
[08:37] <pcuser> sorry oops, security system will be using zoneminders
[08:37] <pcuser> it looks kick ass
[08:37] <shentino> How do yoyu configure the display manager itself to use a specific resolution?
[08:37] <ushimitsudoki> Parsec300: i just busted out my USB drive on truecrypt and mounted it up and copied a few files to it. I can only tell you that the problem is not inherent in truecrypt - maybe it was created read-only or there are mounting permission problems or something
[08:38] <selew> hello to all
[08:38] <selew> how can i install real player ?

[08:41] <computer> now how do i  make vb full screen cause i tru ctrl-f and still the screen looks small
[08:41] <Parsec300> ushimitsudoki, so, you encrypted an entire partition?
[08:41] <Parsec300> Perhaps that is why it works and not with me
[08:42] <computer> oops wrong channel
[08:42] <ushimitsudoki> Parsec300: the entire drive
[08:42] <lint> can someone tell me how to make it so that my windows dont snap to the edges of the screen?
[08:43] <remote> lint: adjust it
[08:43] <selew> i have the file on the desktop
[08:44] <YoG> Hi, how do I enable suspend on my desktop?
[08:45] <remote> selew: execute it
[08:46] <zoed> can somebody help me with my randomly changing resolution (xubuntu)?
[08:46] <cads> I've got a bunch of symptoms with my ubuntu installation, was wondering if you guys know any resources for troubleshooting and debugging these issues myself
[08:46] <remote> yes google usually
[08:46] <joejoecircusboy> cads: that's gotta be the best question I've ever seen here
[08:46] <selew> the type of the file is not supported
[08:46] <remote> selew: what type of file is it, yo?
[08:47] <selew> this is the message that i get
[08:47] <abchirk> hi
[08:47] <remote> yes!
[08:47] <remote> an error
[08:47] <selew> yes
[08:47] <selew> .bin
[08:47] <cads> remote, google doesn't help a whole lot; I can look up many bug reports but what I'd like is to know how to fix them
[08:47] <joejoecircusboy> cads: can you be more specific about the problems?
[08:47] <remote> selew: that is the extention, it doesn't tell me what _type_ of file it is
[08:47] <cads> sure
[08:48] <abchirk> If I have something like this -> Atheros Communications Inc. AR242x ... stands the x for any number? so it could be 5 doesn't matter?
[08:48] <Rat409> selew: i'd make a folder call it rp realplay whatever then in xterm cd to folder,./bla.bin,cd to the hxsetup,read install/readme then ./realplay after making it executable(the .bin file)
[08:48] <selew> RealPlayer11GOLD.bin
[08:48] <joot> cads: ubuntu forums new user can be almost as quick as here
[08:48] <cads> there are enough problems that I ought to make a forum post
[08:49] <Rat409> selew: it uunpacks contents and Desktop isn't best folder
[08:49] <remote> Rat409: that's not his problem
[08:49] <cads> well let me state one problem and see what you guys think
[08:49] <joejoecircusboy> cads: Start with a couple of the big ones
[08:49] <remote> cads: so far so good
[08:50] <vina> hai
[08:51] <Rat409> well i've done it in a dozen distros and said make it executeable the run the .bin file(most are installers
[08:51] <cads> document viewer is unstable, opening pdfs can sometimes cause it to open and crash immediately. Right now I opened a pdf file by clicking it on the desktop. Document viewer did not come up, but the desktop window has completely locked down  i.e. I can't move the focus to other icons
[08:51] <selew> toxovolos@toxovolos-desktop:-$ this is the path in terminal window
[08:51] <selew> this path is the desktop ?
[08:51] <selew> or not?
[08:51] <Rat409> selew: cd ~/.Desktop
[08:52] <cads> I'm not concerned about document viewer so much as how it blocks the desktop; sometimes the menus stop working
[08:52] <selew> No such file or directory
[08:52] <mecha> newb here. tried installing nvidia-glx-new  and i only get a resolution of 640 x 350. i know my monitor can handle at least 1024 x 768
[08:52] <cads> sometimes the problem starts with firefox instead of document viewer, or pidgin, or movie player
[08:52] <remote> cads: i use evince and it does read all pdf without problems
[08:52] <selew> when i type  cd ~/.Desktop
[08:52] <arvind_k> mecha, do you have graphics card?
[08:53] <Rat409> selew: use nautilus to find it then enable viewing hidden files
[08:53] <remote> mecha: well obviously it can handle 640x350 as well
[08:53] <ushimitsudoki> Rat409: ~/Desktop ? should not be hidden unless you are talking about some non-standard dir there
[08:54] <cads> remote, I use xpdf to avoid instability from evince and yeah, the pdfs are all fine
[08:54] <mecha> arvind_k: nvidia 5500
[08:54] <CYberglO> hello all
[08:54] <Rat409> sorry way too late/early here
[08:54] <joejoecircusboy> cads: That's a tough one... one suggestion: If you can reproduce the problem, run the document viewer from the CLI so you can see the error messages it spits out on crash
[08:54] <CYberglO> anyone can help me with SAMBA + PDC + XP ?
[08:54] <arvind_khadri> mecha, which drivers?
[08:54] <cads> ah, that's an idea
[08:54] <remote> cads: can you reproduce the problem?
[08:54] <arvind_khadri> !envy | mecha
[08:54] <mecha> remote :/
[08:55] <remote> mecha: did you had any question?
[08:55] <mecha> arvind_khadri: i tried that
[08:55] <arvind_khadri> mecha, so what happens?
[08:55] <cads> remote, it seems to happen after I've been logged in a couple hours
[08:55] <CYberglO> samba + pdc + xp in clients, could someone help me?
[08:56] <mecha> remote: how come i can't switch it through sreen resolution GUI?
[08:56] <remote> cads: i have no idea
[08:56] <cads> if it's not the document viewer problem it's a similar problem with firefox
[08:56] <remote> mecha: i don't know about screen resolution GUI
[08:56] <cads> let me describe one more problem
[08:56] <arvind_khadri> mecha, gksu displayconfig-gtk
[08:56] <mecha> arvind_khadri: it boots into 640 x 350 and in the resolution GUI its the highest res i can get
[08:56] <arvind_khadri> mecha, gksu displayconfig-gtk
[08:57]  * [gnubie] waves to all.. i have to go now..
[08:57] <CYberglO> or restart, initialize ubuntu in secure mode, select the last option (restart X to default), and then edit xorg.conf to put the parameters there
[08:57] <CYberglO> samba + pdc + xp in clients, could someone help me?
[08:58] <rampageoberon> How can i check the settings for the hard drives spinning down after some time and where can i change this?
[08:58] <cads> this is the one with firefox. Sometimes after playing a few youtube videos the sound dies for my whole system. Just no more sound playback. At the same time, firefox when run too long begins to slow and then spontaneously crashes and halts my panels and desktop and other windows.
[08:58] <mecha> arvind_khadri: still cant get anyhting higher. my monito is not in the list either
[08:59] <arvind_khadri> mecha try adding it and envy works the best...
[08:59] <remote> cads: when it happens try to find more information about the problem first, application errors and dmesg would be a good place to start looking
[08:59] <mecha> arvind_khadri: how would i go about adding my monitor?
[08:59] <cads> pressing ctrl-alt-backspace and logging back in either doesn't fix the sound and firefox crashes soon after that again, or the login fails altogether, loading a blank screen without the desktop
[09:00] <cads> yeah, I'll try to collect some info and compose a forum entry
[09:00] <remote> yeah have a look at dmesg errors in that case and xorg logs
[09:00] <arvind_khadri> mecha, click on the Model drop down menu
[09:01] <arvind_khadri> mecha, btw was it working previously?
[09:02] <cads> I think it must be some driver misconfiguration
[09:02] <rampageoberon> Where are the settings to power down the hard drive if inactive ofr a while?
[09:02] <abchirk> Which HAL version is in the latest Hardy iso? Or where do I get this info?
[09:02] <mecha> arvind_khadri: AG neovo F-15. not on the list. it was working before the nvidia-glx-new
[09:02] <arvind_khadri> mecha, did you try restoring the xorg.conf?
[09:03] <Tenshihan> how do I apt-get upgrade perl to 5.10?
[09:03] <mecha> nope
[09:03] <Neseth> has some real advantage in using ipv6 ? not about "the ipv4 ips r going to end", but i mean a real advantage, should i use that ?
[09:03] <cads> remote, come to think of it, I have an idea... I've got a working debian system instaled on another partition which is considerably more stable... could I use that to compare the settings and see where debian is going wrong?
[09:03] <remote> Neseth: no.
[09:03] <mecha> arvind_khadri: what dir is that in?
[09:04] <remote> cads: i don't see how since you have no idea what the problem is
[09:04] <Neseth> remote utorrent in windows makes a lot of publicity about enabling teredo/ipv6, thats sucks
[09:04] <arvind_khadri> mecha, /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:04] <remote> what does the pubs say?
[09:04] <mecha> brb
[09:06] <ompaul> I am about to unban a few nicks hold tight
[09:06] <ompaul> thats is
[09:06] <ompaul> :)
[09:06] <abchirk> ok

[09:09] <nathanielneall> can i get that on synaptic package manager
[09:09] <ushimitsudoki> g0ldb3rg: kubuntu? is that not what you want?
[09:09] <shentino> lots of IP's
[09:09] <ompaul> abby87, help here  lots that is all
[09:09] <remote> g0ldb3rg: do you mean "can I install the KDE window manager on ubuntu?" ?
[09:09] <g0ldb3rg> yep
[09:09] <arvind_khadri> abby87, you can't apply for that...the chats are logged and they are read...if they find you eligible they will ask you
[09:10] <remote> g0ldb3rg: yes we can!
[09:10] <ushimitsudoki> g0ldb3rg: try this link: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/kde
[09:10] <abby87> ompaul: i'm mostly here
[09:10] <abby87> arvind_khadri: ok ..ok i got it
[09:11] <abby87> arvind_khadri: i thought u have to apply or something
[09:11] <abby87> :P
[09:11] <arvind_khadri> abby87,  :D
[09:11] <remote> why do you want to be an operator abby?
[09:11] <kulight>  any one using/trying the 8.10 alpha 5 x64 ? im having trouble with the 2.6.27 kernel
[09:11] <remote> kulight: you asked that already
[09:11] <arvind_khadri> kulight, ask #ubuntu+1
[09:11] <ushimitsudoki> kulight: you will have more luck in #ubuntu+1 i think
[09:11] <kulight> true i thought no one notice sorry
[09:11] <arvind_khadri> ushimitsudoki,  jinx "P
[09:12] <ushimitsudoki> :)
[09:12] <Pirate_Hunter> hi i wish to transfer files from one comp to another how do i do it as a network "i really havent done such a thing in ubuntu", both comps are linux?
[09:12] <arvind_khadri> Pirate_Hunter, rsync
[09:12] <kulight> ushimitsudoki: what is it #ubuntu+1 ?
[09:12] <Myrtti> kulight: a channel just like this
[09:12] <ushimitsudoki> kulight: it is the irc channel for the next version of ubuntu
[09:13] <kulight> ok thank u ill try threre
[09:13] <rampageoberon> Where are the settings to power down the hard drive if inactive ofr a while?
[09:13] <Pirate_Hunter> arvind_khadri: so that will allow me to transfer files from my ubuntu to xubuntu, I thoungt there would be an integrated system that would allow me to create the network like in windows
[09:13] <ushimitsudoki> Pirate_Hunter: I like NFS (if this is something you need to do often) check here and see if it helps: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo
[09:13] <remote> Pirate_Hunter: you can use rsync with ssh
[09:13] <computer> now what?
[09:13] <remote> Pirate_Hunter: samba
[09:14] <arvind_khadri> Pirate_Hunter, you can access the computer's on the same netwrok...
[09:14] <Pirate_Hunter> remote: linux to linux, ubuntu to xubuntu, ins't samba for linux to windows?
[09:14] <remote> Pirate_Hunter: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpSamba
[09:14] <remote> Pirate_Hunter: no.
[09:14] <arvind_khadri> Pirate_Hunter, samba is for Windows
[09:14] <remote> you can setup NFS as well but i'd recommend samba
[09:15] <remote> arvind_khadri: it isn't.
[09:15] <Pirate_Hunter> remote: that link says windows... but i could be wrong
[09:15] <remote> it says windows indeed
[09:15] <remote> but in what context did you read?
[09:16] <Pirate_Hunter> remote: nope i stopped when it said windows connection and it was made by .....
[09:16] <mecha> arvind_khadri: it says i dont have the permissions to resave as xorg.conf
[09:17] <remote> here: if you really want the directories mounted remotely to your computer(s) you need either samba or nfs and nfs will make your processes lock when unavailable and they will become zombie processes which sucks
[09:17] <remote> otherwise, go with rsync and ssh
[09:17] <Pirate_Hunter> remote: i never used shh or rsync isnt there a link with a tut on how to do so?
[09:18] <remote> Pirate_Hunter: rsync is great, really. you just don't get the folders, you get to copy the folders through the network
[09:18] <remote> Pirate_Hunter: are you comfortable with using bash?
[09:18] <ari_stress> hi guys, i forget the name of program that can display your drive usage graphically
[09:18] <Pirate_Hunter> remote: im guessing it is easy to setup than and what about ssh
[09:18] <simi> hi, i have a problem with a CRT display, i have a dual boot system and in linux the image is draw in part outside of the scrren and my kmenu is not visible and in the right side of the screen it appears a black section that is not used for drawing, can i change this from xorg? if i use the display device menu the image is not drawn correct in windows?
[09:18] <krishmish> can ubuntu desktop detect 2 ethernet cards???on the same system?
[09:19] <xvagilinux> okay im using xchat.....is there a way to put someones name up when responding instead of typing it out?
[09:19] <remote> are you running ssh on the target (where you want to upload your files) ?
[09:19] <Pirate_Hunter> remote: somewhat comfortable with bash im much better than i used to be "if that is not saying a mouth full"
[09:19] <joakim> back again =) so I just installed compiz and all was well, then I rebooted and all is still well besides when I rotate the cube I get really bad fps (stuttering) all other effects work smooth, even swiching workspace wich also use the rotate cube effect. Only when I initiate the cube with ctrl+alt+button1 it starts to stutter
[09:19] <mecha> simi: recallibrate your monitor
[09:19] <legend2440> ari_stress: baobab
[09:20] <krishmish>  can ubuntu desktop detect 2 ethernet cards???on the same system?
[09:20] <simi> mecha:  that is not an option because i did that and i have problems in XP, the problem is in xorg
[09:20] <abby87> joakim: nvidia/intel/ati?
[09:20] <legend2440> xvagilinux: type first few letters of nick then TAB key
[09:20] <remote> krishmish: yes it can!
[09:21] <abby87> krishmish: i guess so..
[09:21] <joakim> nvidia 7900 gt, restricted driver enabled
[09:21] <mecha> how do i get permissions to write on my xorg.conf ?
[09:21] <mecha> simi: ok
[09:21] <abby87> joakim: i suppose its a driver problem ...
[09:21] <krishmish> can i connect the other eth to the switch?
[09:21] <remote> mecha: root!
[09:22] <abby87> mecha: sudo gedit <path to xorg>
[09:22] <krishmish> remote: can i connect the other eth to the switch?
[09:22] <remote> krishmish: what?
[09:22] <xvagilinux> okay im using xchat.....is there a way to put someones name up when responding instead of typing it out?
[09:22] <joakim> abby87: rats.. it was working fine before I rebooted, must be some effect conflicting with eachother..
[09:22] <xvagilinux> ooops
[09:22] <remote> xvagilinux: tab completion?
[09:22] <krishmish> can i connect the other ethernet card  to the switch and thru that to another comp??
[09:22] <xvagilinux> sorry
[09:22] <xvagilinux> mispost

[09:24] <dbglt> I've removed (with --force) a package, which I have replaced with a manual version. Aptitude/apt-get wants to reinstall it. How can I tell apt-get to ignore the dependency?
[09:24] <Zaqq> now*
[09:24] <abby87> Polygon89: ur ipod format?
[09:24] <Polygon89> abby87, i cnat format it until i get the music off of it.
[09:24] <krishmish> ubottu add the default gateway and try
[09:24] <remote> xvagilinux: it's ok, i was referring to it for your convenience
[09:24] <abby87> Polygon89: is it in fat?
[09:24] <Polygon89> abby87, oh, its a 20 gb color, vfat
[09:25] <krishmish> zaqq add the default gateway and try
[09:25] <abby87> Polygon89: sudo fdisk -l
[09:25] <dbglt> any ideas? I just want to say to dpkg/apt "please assume that dependency is met" and continue
[09:25] <abby87> Polygon89: is it showing

[09:25] <remote> Polygon89: do you know what device it is?
[09:25] <Polygon89> abby87, no its just showing my linux/ntfs drives
[09:25] <Polygon89> remote, its not showing up at all
[09:25] <krishmish> did u try enabling onlt roamin mode?
[09:26] <Zaqq> yes.. that was the default
[09:26] <remote> Polygon89: when you plug it, run `dmesg' in a shell
[09:26] <joakim> abby87: Solved!
[09:26] <remote> you should see what is the device used by your ipod
[09:26] <fru> hello there

[09:38] <yosarian> and the software provided for the manufacturer for Linux it doesn't even start
[09:38] <abby87> Polygon89: do u dual boot ? i mean does the ipod work on windows? are ur usb slots functioning proper?
[09:38] <Polygon89> abby87, it works with windows, itunes detects it but if i try to actually copy the music off windows freezes
[09:38] <remote> usually i would see the partitions listed after the sd messages
[09:38] <remote> is your ipod formatted?
[09:38] <Polygon89> and remote, still device not found
[09:38] <Polygon89> remote, yeah its fat32
[09:39] <abby87> Polygon89: i bet  99% there is a prob with ur usb slot
[09:39] <kindofabuzz> finally got wpa2 working but now it never connects automatically at boot up.  i have to do the whole choose anther wireless.  then i may have to do it several times because it won't connect on the first try.  any ideas?
[09:39] <remote> Polygon89: it *is* /dev/sdd dmesg is saying so
[09:39] <Polygon89> abby87, its not a problem with my usb slot.
[09:39] <abby87> Polygon89: try using a different slot ...
[09:39] <Polygon89> abby87, if i boot into windows, i start itunes
[09:39] <Polygon89> abby87, and it says "i detect you have a ipod that is corrupt, please restore to sync music'
[09:39] <Pirate_Hunter> how can i know if port 22 for ssh is open or not?
[09:39] <Polygon89> abby87, but i need to get music OFF before i format it
[09:39] <remote> Polygon89: what about `fdisk -l /dev/sdd' ?
[09:39] <remote> can you paste the output ?
[09:40] <abby87> Polygon89: ok corrupt ipod
[09:40] <Polygon89> remote, , nothing
[09:40] <remote> it's busted dude
[09:40] <Polygon89> hmm.
[09:40] <david_> hello?
[09:40] <Polygon89> ill try testdisk on it and then format it
[09:40] <abby87> Polygon89: sudo mkdir /mnt/ipod
[09:40] <Polygon89> since i cant get it off a noirmal way
[09:41] <fru_the_original> is it possible to paste into the terminal ?
[09:41] <remote> this is confusing
[09:41] <david_> can someone help my with wine?
[09:41] <remote> Polygon89: do you see new errors in dmesg?
[09:41] <abby87> Polygon89: sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdc1 /mnt/ipod
[09:41] <ackbahr> Hi! Is there a clonezilla channel (tried #clonezilla already, of course)?
[09:41] <jrib> fru_the_original: sure.  Use ctrl-shift-v or right click -> paste.  The other way is to hilight what you want to copy and middle-click to paste (anywhere in X this works btw)
[09:41] <kindofabuzz> fru_the_original, yeah, crtl -v or middle click
[09:42] <Polygon89> abby87, the ipod is not formatted for ntfs. ipods are either formatted with fat32 or HFS+
[09:42] <remote> plug the ipod, run dmesg, get the device name (eg: sdd), mount /dev/<device>N ...
[09:42] <Polygon89> remote, no new dmesg messages
[09:42] <abby87> Polygon89: sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdc1 /mnt/ipod
[09:42] <kindofabuzz> finally got wpa2 working but now it never connects automatically at boot up.  i have to do the whole choose anther wireless.  then i may have to do it several times because it won't connect on the first try.  any ideas?
[09:42] <remote> but it's sdd
[09:42] <fru_the_original> mercie kindofabuzz
[09:42] <Polygon89> abby87, /dev/sdc1 is a ntfs volume and its my windows drive.
[09:43] <remote> that's why it used sdd
[09:43] <abby87> Polygon89: whoops
[09:43] <nathanielneall> need some help
[09:43] <yosarian> How can I remove the drivers I install before?
[09:43] <remote> nathanielneall: we all do in one way or another
[09:44] <abby87> !help
[09:44] <remote> yosarian: you undo what you did
[09:44] <yosarian> how?
[09:44] <kindofabuzz> why does /etc/network/interfaces not save my settings??
[09:44] <remote> yosarian: it depends
[09:44] <remote> kindofabuzz: because files don't "save settings"
[09:45] <kindofabuzz> remote, ?
[09:45] <nathanielneall> i wanna put an mp4 on my ipod nano w/ video
[09:45] <yosarian> i did sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6 /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5
[09:45] <yosarian> sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libtiff.so.4 /usr/lib/libtiff.so.3
[09:45] <yosarian> sudo sh install.sh
[09:45] <Polygon89> remote, this is what dmesg says if i plug it back in: http://paste.ubuntu.com/43866/
[09:45] <nathanielneall> i have gtkpod and the mp4v2 plugin library
[09:45] <remote> Polygon89: [ 2381.784723] sd 7:0:0:0: [sdd] READ CAPACITY failed
[09:45] <yosarian> I wnt to start all over again and see if it works
[09:46] <nathanielneall> anyone know the simplist way to do this?
[09:46] <remote> Polygon89: i'm not an ipod expert but something is wrong there!
[09:46] <kindofabuzz> remote, so are you saying /etc/network/interfaces can't keep settings? evidently not.  all these howtos for wireless say edit it and i did, but i check it and the setting i put in are gone everythimne
[09:47] <Polygon89> remote, hmm. i think its pretty much busted, and that would be why windows freezes when i try to read it. thanks for your help
[09:47] <remote> kindofabuzz: there are two possible answers, you didn't save the file correctly or something else changed the content of the file
[09:47] <nathanielneall> i get errors in gtk when loading the ipod
[09:47] <remote> Polygon89: sorry to hear it!
[09:47] <Jakob_the_liar> is there a way to find the process of flash player and kill it without killing firefox
[09:47] <Jakob_the_liar> or pause it
[09:47] <kindofabuzz> remote, right, what is changing it?
[09:47] <kindofabuzz> remote, NM is changing it i believe
[09:47] <remote> kindofabuzz: what would be subject to change it?
[09:48] <Jakob_the_liar> also is there a way that you can stop or reload all the tabs in firefox with the command line?
[09:48] <nathanielneall> would it help to restart since i jsut installed gtkpod
[09:48] <remote> kindofabuzz: so how do you work this out?
[09:48] <kindofabuzz> remote, nothing, i set something in it and save, then go back and my settings are no longer in it.
[09:48] <hischild> kindofabuzz, how are you setting something in it?
[09:49] <kindofabuzz> hischild, i open it and edit it
[09:49] <remote> kindofabuzz: it sounds kinky
[09:49] <hischild> kindofabuzz, a bit more specific then the most obvious ... what command / commands do you use?
[09:49] <remote> kindofabuzz: do you save the file?
[09:49] <codename> hey
[09:50] <legend2440> kindofabuzz: you need root permissions to edit it so  gksudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces
[09:50] <kindofabuzz> remote no i just pretended to, of course i did
[09:50] <remote> good
[09:50] <ciaobello> il link per quello in italiano___
[09:50] <kindofabuzz> i know how to edit a file
[09:50] <remote> that's the way to do it, buddy
[09:50] <ciaobello> per italiano__
[09:50] <jrib> !it | ciaobello
[09:50] <kindofabuzz> legend2440, yes i know
[09:50] <hischild> kindofabuzz, so what command did you use ...
[09:50] <kindofabuzz> hischild, sudo nano
[09:51] <remote> kindofabuzz: do you really need networkmanager?
[09:51] <kindofabuzz> remote, no but wicd would just crash
[09:51] <remote> i know i uninstalled it because i don't know how the hell it works and didn't think i needed it
[09:51] <remote> wicd?
[09:51] <hischild> kindofabuzz, i've seen before that NM changes files etc. What do you wish to add?
[09:51] <kindofabuzz> hischild, all my wpa2 stuff
[09:52] <hischild> kindofabuzz, wpa2 stuff? like network keys etc?
[09:52] <Jakob_the_liar> is there a way to locate flashplayers process id in firefox and pause or kill it?
[09:52] <remote> anyways
[09:52] <remote> look at the ctime on the file
[09:52] <remote> edit it
[09:52] <kindofabuzz> hischild, well basically know i just want it to autoconnect, the wpa is actually working without the stuff i originally had in there
[09:52] <remote> and look at the ctime on the file again
[09:52] <remote> did it change?
[09:52] <FloodBot3> remote: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[09:53] <kindofabuzz> now*
[09:53] <remote> FloodBot3: i have no idea what you're talking about
[09:53] <remote> kindofabuzz: that is `ls -c'
[09:53] <hischild> kindofabuzz, once i've added the keys in NM itself, once it detects the network it starts to auto connect. What is different to this then what you want?
[09:53] <hischild> remote, calm down on the enter.
[09:54] <kindofabuzz> hischild, it never connects, each time i have to "connect to other wireless" even though my ssid is showing
[09:54] <hischild> kindofabuzz, odd ... and when you manually click on the network in the list, does it connect then?
[09:54] <kindofabuzz> hischild, nope
[09:55] <hischild> kindofabuzz, as long as you use NM you're stuck with that changing config file ...
[09:55] <hischild> kindofabuzz, does it show 1 green circle when connecting?
[09:55] <kindofabuzz> hischild, yeah
[09:55] <Jakob_the_liar> why doesnt flashplayer have a process id?
[09:55] <hischild> kindofabuzz, and hangs there?
[09:55] <kindofabuzz> hischild, then it fails and that when i have to choose the connect to other
[09:55] <remote> Jakob_the_liar: because it runs within firefox?
[09:56] <remote> isn't that a firefox plugin, i ment to ask
[09:56] <hischild> kindofabuzz, does the router have a dhcp server? I've seen it before, was when the dhcp server was down on the server and it couldn't get an ip. That's where the second circle is for. The first one is for the connection to the router.
[09:57] <kindofabuzz> hischild, the dchp router isn't down, i have it set to assighn ip by MAC
[09:58] <kindofabuzz> so i'm static but from the router
[09:58] <steven> hello
[09:58] <dimitri> salve...una domanda facile facile .....ho una dir che vedo solo come su da terminale voglio usarla anche dal desktop il comando esatto è chmod -R 666 <nomedir>
[09:58] <Jakob_the_liar> is there a way to give flashplayer a process id so you can kill it in case it freezes without killing firefox?
[09:58] <matty> hi
[09:58] <Jakob_the_liar> is there a way to stop or reload firefox tabs from the command line?
[09:58] <matty> im not sure
[09:59] <hischild> kindofabuzz, hmm... you could try and use pure dhcp to check. If that doesn't work as well then i'm at a loss.
[09:59] <matty> can i get msn messsenger on here
[09:59] <kindofabuzz> Jakob_the_liar, i very much doubt it, you may want to ask in #firefox @irc.mozilla.org for that
[09:59] <matty> ubuntu
[09:59] <Jakob_the_liar> thanks kindofabuzz
[09:59] <pRoFiOn> Hi, all.. can somebody help me with ubuntu + networking?
[09:59] <pRoFiOn> have strange problem
[09:59] <matty> wats rong
[09:59] <kindofabuzz> hischild, if NM would erase my settings i think this would work how it's suppoed to
[09:59] <kindofabuzz> wouldn't
[10:00] <hischild> kindofabuzz, well you can always disable NM and check if it doesn't erase anymore.
[10:00] <matty> how do i install programs on ubuntu
[10:00] <Pirate_Hunter> is it possbile for me to connect to another machine with this setup i.e. all linux pcs are connected into one hub/rooter and the modem as well, so can i ssh to them or do i need a direct connection to my NIC?
[10:00] <morningwalker> will 784mb of RAM be enough to run Windows XP in virtualbox as ubuntu as host.!!
[10:01] <hischild> morningwalker, yes
[10:01] <morningwalker> matty, use synaptic system>administration>synaptic package installer
[10:01] <hischild> Pirate_Hunter, install openssh-server on every pc. That will allow you to ssh to each pc with their ip
[10:01] <matty> where would i find it  (morningwalker)
[10:01] <morningwalker> system>administration.synaptic package installer
[10:02] <morningwalker> administration>
[10:02] <matty> ok thanks

[10:04] <Hink_> Hi, I would need some help with installing ubuntu. The installer can't find my internal harddrive.
[10:04] <remote> Pirate_Hunter: you can run ssh server on a different port, 80 for example, or preferably 443
[10:04] <morningwalker> Fedora sucks for beginners, ment for the geeks!!
[10:04] <hischild> Pirate_Hunter, ok... do you have a firewall on the pc installed?
[10:05] <Polygon89> Hink_, what do you mean it cant find your hard drive, the partiton editor doesnt show anything?
[10:05] <morningwalker> hischild: dude, all computers with ubuntu have firewall installed by default!!
[10:05] <MacKP> moin moin
[10:05] <Hink_> doesnt show anything
[10:05] <nnull> if i was using ssh in my lan with (windows xp as server and ubuntu as client) i would no longer need the default FIlesharing over TCPIP shares correct?
[10:05] <Polygon89> Hink_, you on a laptop or something
[10:06] <Pirate_Hunter> hischild: on the main pc no on the kids pc yes
[10:06] <matty> yes thats rignt morning walker same with windows os
[10:06] <Hink_> I have a western digital greenpower 500gig
[10:06] <morningwalker> ssh likely not to run on my pc!!
[10:06] <Arthur> hi people. Is there a way to index (Tracker) photos by tags that produced by f-spot?
[10:06] <nnull> why not
[10:06] <anonymous35> If anyone wants to help prevent Web Tryp 2.0 - message me
[10:06] <Hink_> so not a laptop
[10:07] <Polygon89> Hink_, is it a prebuilt computer?
[10:07] <Hink_> nope
[10:07] <Pirate_Hunter> remote: if only i knew how but isnt that bad, isnt that the same as using telnet for connecting to your company
[10:07] <matty> brb pplz:)
[10:07] <Polygon89> Hink_, are you sure the BIOS detects the hard drive?
[10:07] <Hink_> yepp
[10:07] <Hink_> I have windows on the computer
[10:07] <Polygon89> Hink_, hmm.
[10:07] <Polygon89> Hink_, sudo fdisk -l
[10:07] <Hink_> ok
[10:07] <Pirate_Hunter> hischild: the kids pc has firehol running while my main comp has nothing how can i connect
[10:07] <Polygon89> Hink_,paste.ubuntu.com
[10:08] <Hink_> ??
[10:08] <Hink_> sudo fdisk -l did not show anything
[10:08] <Polygon89> Hink_, paste the output of sudo fdisk -l into that
[10:08] <hischild> Pirate_Hunter, a firewall can block the ssh connection.
[10:08] <Polygon89> Hink_, hmm.....do you know the exact model of your hard drive?
[10:08] <Arthur> Hi people. Is there a way to include f-spot tags in "Tracker"?
[10:09] <Polygon89> Hink_, i would try googling that along with 'ubuntu' or 'linux' to see if anyone has gotten it to work
[10:09] <hischild> Pirate_Hunter, so go to the pc you're trying to connect to, check if the firewall blocks it.
[10:09] <Hink_> I could find it in a few seconds
[10:09] <Hink_> I have tried googeling
[10:09] <Hink_> some have problems
[10:10] <matty> pplz go 2 www.localgeek.com.au i work there
[10:10] <snadge> help.. i've reinstalled ubuntu and now with the nvidia drivers im limited to 1024x768 :(
[10:10] <Pirate_Hunter> hischild: i can ping to the ip on both
[10:10] <Ziroday> snadge: have you installed the nvidia drivers?
[10:10] <hischild> Pirate_Hunter, doesn't change my suggestion on what to do. :-)
[10:10] <snadge> using the hardware drivers in system -> administration yes
[10:11] <Pirate_Hunter> hischild: how do i check if the firewall blocks "i think i asked this previously"
[10:11] <Hink_> WD5000AACS
[10:11] <Ziroday> snadge: try running the nvidia-settings config
[10:11] <snadge> and now the nvidia driver is working.. but its incorrectly detecting my maximum resolution as 1024 x 768 :/
[10:11] <matty> www.localgeek.com.au go 2 it
[10:11] <matty> :)
[10:11] <hischild> Pirate_Hunter, i am unfamiliar with your firewall. It probably has a screen that shows you a log of what connections were blocked etc.
[10:11] <nnull> whats NFS
[10:11] <nnull> !nfs
[10:11] <snadge> Ziroday: nvidia-xconfig ?
[10:12] <Ziroday> snadge: open a terminal and type that in
[10:12] <Ziroday> snadge: and no, nvidia-settings
[10:12] <shappie> How do i get a clean xorg.conf file?
[10:12] <Pirate_Hunter> hischild: i know it does if it only had a gui
[10:12] <shappie> I need to do some configs but before that i have to get a clena xorg.conf
[10:12] <shappie> im using fglrx driver btw...
[10:12] <Ziroday> shappie: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, but backup your old one first
[10:12] <shappie> in recovery mode?
[10:13] <Ziroday> shappie: no type that command in the terminal AFTER backing up your old xorg.conf
[10:13] <shappie> ok just in the normal session?
[10:13] <snadge> Ziroday: nvidia-settings works awesome.. thanks :)
[10:13] <Ziroday> shappie: yes
[10:13] <shappie> ok ty :)
[10:13] <shappie> i will be back when finished
[10:13] <Ziroday> snadge: no problem, have fun
[10:14] <damo> where is nvidia-settings?
[10:14] <pRoFiOn> http://paste.ubuntu.com/43870/ - please HELP..
[10:14] <Ziroday> damo: type in nvidia-settings in to the terminal
[10:14] <hischild> Pirate_Hunter, what?
[10:14] <Ziroday> pRoFiOn: please tell us a condensed version of your problem instead of posting a link
[10:15] <Pirate_Hunter> hischild: huh? i said if only my fw had a gui, firehol doesnt have gui and i only installed it to use with dansgardian
[10:16] <pRoFiOn> Ziroday - my ubuntu server loose ONLY internet connection, randomly, it can ping other servers in LAN, can ping gateway, but nothnig on internet
[10:16] <hischild> Pirate_Hunter, and those are apps i have no experience with and as such i can't help you with them.
[10:16] <Ziroday> pRoFiOn: can't help you there, sorry
[10:16] <pRoFiOn> Ziroday - other servers in that lan(same subnet) work fine
[10:17] <damo> ok
[10:17] <Pirate_Hunter> hischild: np if i cnat sort this out ill have to sue my 1.88GB pen but splitting 10GB into 1GB is a pain "you can understand what im going through"
[10:17] <adante> hi, i am trying to rebuild my kernel to enable 1000hz timer support - i tried copying the config out of /boot into /usr/src/linux/.config, run menuconfig and change timer and compile, but this does not work -- should this work in theory?
[10:18] <hischild> !kernel | adante
[10:18] <ali[n]> hello all!:)
[10:18] <hischild> Pirate_Hunter, yes i do, that was my reason for getting an external HD, also because of the large amount of transfers i do daily.
[10:18] <ali[n]> i install RecoverDataLinuxTrial but i can't run it:-(
[10:19] <ali[n]> can any body help me?
[10:19] <ali[n]> :-(
[10:20] <Pirate_Hunter> hischild: how do i find out my machine hostname?
[10:21] <hischild> pRoFiOn, you're missing dns servers. <IP_ADDRESS> is localhost
[10:21] <damo> what better to use then ubuntu for a new user?
[10:21] <adante> hischild: hm, it says the stock configs are in the debian directory, but for me (after extracting the source) but the debian directory is empty
[10:21] <mrtimdog> Anyone else using subversion and now can't connect to any of their servers? ... SSL negotiation failed: SSL error: Key usage violation in certificate
[10:22] <pRoFiOn> hischild - in resolv.conf file?
[10:22] <MrStein> Would some kind soul check if https://mailex.hermes.si load for him ?
[10:22] <mrtimdog> ... since it's upgrade to 1.5.x
[10:22] <Pirate_Hunter> hischild: how do i find out my machine hostname?
[10:22] <hischild> Pirate_Hunter, if you open up a console, it's the name that's on the command line. alternative, use this --> cat /etc/hostname
[10:22] <hischild> pRoFiOn, yes
[10:22] <pRoFiOn> wait a sec, ill try it
[10:22] <hischild> adante, i have no experience with kernel config. All i know is that that page shows you info. Also, since the file .config starts with a period it's hidden by default.
[10:22] <Pirate_Hunter> hischild: ok
[10:23] <adante> hischild: ok, thanks for your help
[10:23] <hischild> adante, yw
[10:23] <adante> does anybody know where i can obtain the configs used to build ubuntu 8.04 from
[10:23] <g0ldb3rg> hey. can someone tell me whats the difference between feisty and gutsy  and what they mean in a nutshell?
[10:23] <ali[n]> one person help me please:-(
[10:23] <hischild> g0ldb3rg, never software versions, better support, more up2date
[10:24] <jrib> g0ldb3rg: 6 months.  Gutsy is newer.  Hardy is the latest
[10:24] <jrib> ali[n]: best to just ask the channel your question
[10:24] <hischild> ali[n], please ask your question on one line.
[10:24] <g0ldb3rg> and feisty?
[10:24] <hischild> g0ldb3rg, comes before gutsy and hardy.
[10:24] <g0ldb3rg> ok thanx
[10:24] <jrib> g0ldb3rg: they are version names.    What is wrong with the version in the repositories?
[10:27] <ali[n]> hischild: no it install successfully.for recover my deleted data.

[10:28] <LordMetroid> I am using the new repositories but I can't install everything from it cause some package want to remove gnome
[10:28] <jrib> LordMetroid: do 'sudo apt-get build-dep anjuta' and hope that your libraries are new enough I guess.  But 6.10 is no longer supported, you shouldn't be using it
[10:28] <LordMetroid> Polygon89, I have tried em and it didn't work either, new laptop... can't afford it
[10:29] <LordMetroid> jrib, what i should and shouldn't is not of my concern

[10:29] <Polygon89> LordMetroid, then do a server install and use fluxbox or something
[10:29] <LordMetroid> Not about what Ubuntu to run
[10:29] <jrib> LordMetroid: security updates aren't guaranteed for unsupported versions

[10:34] <pRoFiOn> somebody help with this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/43870/ (inside is description) problem with ubuntu networking(no internet conn) LAN is working fine
[10:34] <oholiks> morningwalker: what kind of comments are you looking for, it's a basic firewall script with some well known ports?
[10:34] <hischild> ali[n], pRoFiOn i'm having some lag issues here so text comes in 2 screens at a time.
[10:34] <hischild> pRoFiOn, seen what? the pings? yes. Did you edit /etc/resolv.conf?
[10:34] <hischild> ali[n], what filesystem?
[10:35] <stefania> hi all. How to set server port on Evoltion account settings? thank you.
[10:35] <morningwalker> OHOLIKS, trust-able??
[10:35] <pRoFiOn> hischild - i edited that, made networking restart
[10:35] <ali[n]> hischild: EXT3
[10:36] <hischild> !undelete | ali[n]
[10:36] <oholiks> morningwalker: i dont follow, trustable how, it accepts statefully and only allows knows ports outbound
[10:36] <hischild> pRoFiOn, how do you mean made networking restart.
[10:36] <oholiks> morningwalker: even has comments on those not so well known ports :)
[10:37] <ali[n]> hischild: ok thankyou.
[10:37] <pRoFiOn> . /etc/init.d/networking restart
[10:37] <morningwalker> stefania, for example to give gmail recieving mail  server should be > > imap.gmail.com:993
[10:37] <ali[n]> hischild: ;-)
[10:37] <hischild> pRoFiOn, you don't have to restart netowrking. It will take effect immediately.
[10:37] <morningwalker> stefania, similarly for sending it should be imap.gmail.com:993
[10:38] <pRoFiOn> hischild - i know.. but.. i don't know more, what to do
[10:38] <thrope> hi - if I update from 7.10 to 8.04 is much likely to break? are they binary compatible? I'm thinking in terms of external apps like MATLAB, COMSOL, etc. and also a hand build numpy/scipy and other python modules
[10:38] <hischild> pRoFiOn, edit the file and check if you can ping for example google.com. if not
[10:38] <morningwalker> stefania, basically <serveraddress>:<PORT_NO.>
[10:38] <mrtimdog> Anyone run a svn server via apache mod_ssl and can't connect any more since svns been upgraded? I've even recreated all my certificates with no luck too!
[10:39] <natalisushka> Hello peeps. Please help me solve some problems with my ubuntu 8.04 .. First problem is with my sound, I noticed that if I am playing music using any audio app or video with sound, when I try to listen to music online or watch a video on youtube or try to run any sound from the web, it doesn't work unless I switch music off. And vise-versa gets wrose, if I have played any sound on the web, I can't get music from my hd until I restart my comput
[10:39] <natalisushka> er. My Audio device is: ATI Technologies Inc IXP SB4x0 High Definition Audio Controller .. what can I do? Is it possible to restart sound without rebooting my system?
[10:39] <jrib> thrope: nothing from the repositories should break.  But you should always have backups
[10:39] <morningwalker> natalisuskha, recommended to restart
[10:39] <IntangibleLiquid> my sister just bought an Inspiron 1420 with WinXP. I want to transfer all my files to her laptop so that I can do a full reinstall of Ubuntu and convert all of my current partitions to Ext3. How do I do that?
[10:40] <Ziroday> natalisushka: this is an issue of how ubuntu sets up pulseaudio, lemme find you a link
[10:40] <jrib> natalisushka: it's an issue with flash and pulseaudio.  Do you have libflashsupport installed?
[10:40] <morningwalker> or install drivers for your sound card if available... could work out better later on
[10:40] <natalisushka> jrib, let me check
[10:41] <Ab3L> hello
[10:41] <Losowski> Good morning! Which OS is usually considered to be 'lighter', Ubuntu or Mandriva? I know is sounds like a general question, however, what the opinion on this?
[10:41] <Losowski> *it
[10:41] <IndyGunFreak> Losowski: in my opinion, Rosie O Donnell is lighter than Mandriva
[10:42] <bazhang> Losowski, that is a question better suited to the chat channel
[10:42] <hischild> !offtopic
[10:42] <pRoFiOn> hischild - same thing, can ping gateway, can't google
[10:42] <damo> hey i am running ubunta and i wanna install a printer it is model LexMark X127o
[10:42] <pRoFiOn> i edited that file
[10:42] <oholiks> morningwalker: saying if that script is "trustable" for your environment is like trying to predict a cars mileage by looking at the paint, it's a perfectly valid firewall script that will protect your computer just fine, probably will make it a bit hard to use with unknown outbound services tho but thats not hard to fix
[10:42] <erUSUL> damo: System>Admin>Printers
[10:42] <hischild> pRoFiOn, do you have static ip?
[10:43] <thrope> jrib: thanks - it's mainly stuff not from the repository I was asking about - I wanted to know if they maintain binary compatibility ie for MATLAB (linked on install), numpy/scipy (handbuilt) or if those things are likely to need a reinstall
[10:43] <pRoFiOn> hischild - check this - http://paste.ubuntu.com/43870/ - here are setups
[10:43] <natalisushka> jrib, I thought it's a flash issue that is taking my sound, but when i for example am working with gmail built-in chat, and I get this sound when someone just sent me a message when the gmail tab isn't open, I loose the sound.
[10:43] <natalisushka> jrib, libflashsupport isn't installed
[10:44] <pRoFiOn> hischild - yes, it's static
[10:44] <hischild> pRoFiOn, did you add a route?

[10:45] <pRoFiOn> should I add other?
[10:45] <hischild> pRoFiOn, don't paste.
[10:45] <jrib> natalisushka: maybe, don't know if that's required or not
[10:45] <IndyGunFreak> IntangibleLiquid: what do you mean how do you do that?
[10:45] <natalisushka> So what does libflashsupport actually do?
[10:46] <jrib> thrope: don't know.  My guess is that your python modules will be fine (the custom ones I have were)
[10:46] <erUSUL> natalisushka: probably just logging out and log in again suffices
[10:46] <notwist> when i try to do "ifconfig eth2 <IP_ADDRESS> up" i get "SIOCSIFFLAGS: Invalid argument
[10:46] <IntangibleLiquid> IndyGunFreak, I mean, how do I connect an Ubuntu box to a WinXP box for file transfer
[10:46] <notwist> how do i get it to work? :(
[10:46] <ndan> hey just a quick question u know how like before the login screen and after (between splash n actually loading) there is a light tan color background thats default... is there a way to just change that color to black?

[10:46] <SaraSmith> my husband has a new computer, running hardy 8.4 his screen resolution makes me feel sick, but when we go to 'screen resolution' it only has 84 hz and offers no other choices. is there anywher else to change that?
[10:46] <hischild> pRoFiOn, seems like you're missing default gateway. ----> sudo route add default gw <IP_ADDRESS>
[10:46] <notwist> im running ubuntu server. can i install proprietary drivers or something to fix it?
[10:46] <IndyGunFreak> IntangibleLiquid: ok, i'm not really sure on that....

[10:47] <notwist> SaraSmith: try getting proprietary drivers

[10:47] <natalisushka> erUSUL, So you think this will solve the issue ?
[10:47] <IndyGunFreak> IntangibleLiquid: why not just use an external drive, or burn some Cd/DVDs, etc.
[10:47] <natalisushka> erUSUL, I tried before loging out and in again to no avail
[10:47] <erUSUL> SaraSmith: "gksudo dsiplayconfig-gtk"
[10:47] <pRoFiOn> hischild - SIOCADDRT: File exists
[10:48] <erUSUL> natalisushka: i was talking only about what to do after installing libflashsupport
[10:48] <IntangibleLiquid> IndyGunFreak, I have around 80g of data. And I don't have any external drive
[10:48] <natalisushka> erUSUL, I will try
[10:48] <hischild> pRoFiOn, hmm ... just a sec
[10:49] <erUSUL> notwist: is: sudo ifconfig eth2 addr <IP_ADDRESS> up
[10:50] <erUSUL> notwist: you should be using the interfaces conf file (man interfaces)

[10:51] <pRoFiOn> hischild - please check this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/43870/ - maybe U find something wrong
[10:51] <DIFH-iceroot> damo: or is this a postscript-printer and you can use postscript?

[10:52] <lumpy> i have problem with dead keyboard after suspend in gnome
[10:52] <IndyGunFreak> damo: it seems the scanner should work "out of the box".... the printer seems a bit more tricky
[10:52] <lumpy> know somethink ?
[10:53] <natalisushka> erUSUL, before I try that, I'd like to ask about another issue that I am having. I believe the issue is with my VGA, before installing 8.04, my usb mouse and other usb devices were working fine. Now when I start up many apps or minimize or maximize  a lot or switching between apps using tab+alt (anything that makes vga exhausted) my USBs stuck, and mouse stops working (only mouse pad works).. Now that's when my visual effects are set to none.
