[00:00] <d_test> then, i clicked on the install icon, and it took me to the installer
[00:00] <d_test> k, i says manual partition method..
[00:00] <d_test> i select my new partition
[00:00] <seanh> I keep setting the panel_minimized_size to 1 in gconf-editor but nothing's changing
[00:00] <n3uro5i5> anyone has enconding character problems in evolution?
[00:01] <d_test> i do all the steps, and when it goes to install, it just waits and then says couldn't mount '/'
[00:01] <Starnestommy> d_test: did you make a partition that had '/' as a mount point?
[00:01] <d_test> yea, i did that
[00:02] <d_test> now, the install icon isn't working again :|
[00:02] <WaY> does anybody knows any tool like nero for creating and editing dvd menus?
[00:02] <oli> WaY: nero fot linux?
[00:02]  * oli ducks
[00:03] <StrangeCharm_> i'm having trouble hibernating on a fujitsu-siemens lifebook p7230. on the hcl, it's listed as working ok. i'm using the intel experimental modsetting graphics driver. i have more swap space than i have ram; i even have more empty swap space than i have ram. i see the hibernate icon in power options dialogue. however, when i click on it, i get a black screen with a blinking cursor in the top left, and this persists for as long as i leave the compu
[00:03] <StrangeCharm_> ter running. when i force a power-off, and turn it back on, i just get a normal startup. any ideas?
[00:03] <WaY> but i think that nero for linux doesnt create dvd menus
[00:03] <seanh> Hey -- anyone know why I keep seeing this randomly when using my browser? (but not when I am loading a site, it just pops up randomly when I'm not doing anything) http://img441.imageshack.us/img441/874/screenshotepiphanyxz5.png
[00:03] <xenthro> Q: i just bought an Asus WL-160n usb wifi dongle and I want to get it working w/out ndiswrapper. I can't find any info on what chipset the card uses but I there are win/mac drivers available
[00:04] <nugz1212> just use ndiswrapper then
[00:04] <oli> WaY: if nero and k3b can't - nothing can.
[00:05] <prakriti> when i put 4gb of ram in my box it gets super unstable
[00:05] <prakriti> I know it cant address all of it, but should it get unstable/
[00:05] <prakriti> ?
[00:05] <oli> prakriti: it's difficult to find data in so big amount of mem :>
[00:05] <Juzzy`> I have a problem I need more space on my root partition (/) but i'm not sure how to resize the partition
[00:05] <prakriti> heh
[00:05] <prakriti> Juzzy` : boot off a live cd and run the partition editor
[00:05] <WaY> oli: im going to try qdvdauthor
[00:05] <Juzzy`> ooh ok
[00:06] <Juzzy`> thanks
[00:06] <shaark> Juzzy: use gparted
[00:06] <Juzzy`> can i use gparted without using live cd?
[00:06] <Juzzy`> cause livecd doesn't like my laptop
[00:06] <rsk> Juzzy`: sure
[00:06] <oli> Juzzy`: not on /
[00:06] <Juzzy`> thats what I thought
[00:06] <Juzzy`> since its mounted
[00:07] <Juzzy`> i'll give the livecd a shot
[00:07] <Juzzy`> bbl
[00:07] <Juzzy`> thx guys
[00:08] <d_test> can i install ubuntu without booting live?
[00:09] <oli> d_test: use alternate cd
[00:09] <simps> I've been trying to setup Samba, but I have no been able to see the Ubuntu computer from my Windows or vice versa.
[00:10] <simps> Help would be appreciated :)
[00:10] <d_test> simps: is the samba server on your windows workgroup or vice-versa
[00:11] <simps> on Ubuntu
[00:11] <WillOne> If someone could take a look at this and tell me what size I should make the Linux exchange, I would be greatful: http://img524.imageshack.us/img524/8850/supmortomesin2.jpg
[00:11] <d_test> no, like is it set-up for use in your windows workgroup
[00:12] <simps> d_test, I'm not totally sure if I did it right. I just went to System->Administration->Shared Folders, installed the stuff there, and added a folder
[00:12] <d_test> i think you need to setup the workgroup settings
[00:12] <simps> d_test, could you explain how i would do that?
[00:13] <d_test> uhh, i did it in fedora 6 :/
[00:13] <simps> :s
[00:13] <d_test> its different, since they had a nice GUI settings thing
[00:13] <dystopianray> WillOne: 10GB would be more than adequate, depends on how many files you want to store in the linux partition
[00:13] <Sneakernets> Hi, I have a rather unusual question
[00:14] <Jordan_U> Sneakernets, Those are the best kind :)
[00:14] <simps> d_test, do you think the terminology of setting up the workgroup would be the same? could you tell me a few of the things you saw in the GUI that i might be able to locate on Ubuntu :P
[00:14] <Sneakernets> I am trying to run Chocolate doom ( http://www.chocolate-doom.org ) and I'm having problems setting 320x200 and when I set 320x240 all I get is garbled horizontal bars.
[00:14] <Sneakernets> my chipset is SiS SUPER AGPSET
[00:14] <woz> for some reason my laptop screen won't go idle/sleep even though I have it set to go to sleep after 2 minutes. anyone got any suggestions?
[00:15] <awerner32> i have a wine question but nobody in the wine irc wants to answer it and people in the ubuntu one are generably very knowledgeable
[00:15] <d_test> simps: it was in system>settings>administration>samba conf
[00:15] <awerner32>  alright, i have a decent understanding of both how wine works and also the windows registry, would there be a way to import the wine registry keys and neccesary files to a windows install on a seperate partition and thus run apps already installed on that partition. I think it's theoretically possible but what would be the methodology required
[00:15] <dystopianray> Sneakernets: is there a specific need to run chocolate-doom? there are many other doom ports
[00:15] <Sneakernets> and my monitor is a Gateway FPD2185W LCD 1680x1050
[00:15] <soundray> woz: do you have an optical mouse?
[00:15] <Sneakernets> dystopianray: yes, it emulates vanilla as closely as possible
[00:15] <cellofellow> I have an odd problem with my USB headset.
[00:15] <woz> @soundray: yes
[00:16] <realityiswhere> cellofellow: you and everyone else.
[00:16] <Sneakernets> that and I am a tester for it: I usually don't have this issue but with this computer I am
[00:16] <jereme_> anyone running fglrx using the manual install method?
[00:16] <jereme_> I'm having an issue that when X starts, I just get a blank screen and it hangs
[00:16] <dystopianray> Sneakernets: I'd recommend prboom, it matches vanilla doom quite closely
[00:16] <Flare183> !anyone | jereme_
[00:16] <ubotu> jereme_: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[00:16] <d_test> if i have my partitions setup already, whats the easiest way to use it?
[00:16] <soundray> woz: it may be sending spurious movement signals. Try unplugging it. If that works, plug it back in, but turn it on its back.
[00:16] <Sneakernets> i suspect that my xorg driver isn't working
[00:16] <Sneakernets> I can't find any info on my chipset
[00:16] <woz> @soundray: thanks ill try that
[00:16] <cellofellow> My nvidia hda-intel sound card doesn't work, so I have a USB headset. It works, but the only mixer that can set the volume correctly is alsamixer. The gnome stuff doesn't work, and the volume buttons on the headset. Both just send the volume into randome places.
[00:17] <jereme_> well it was part of my question
[00:17] <PcPixel> Does anyone know of a good software package for a high school student to use as an algebra tutor?
[00:17] <soundray> Sneakernets: most recent drivers don't support these low resolutions well
[00:17] <Sneakernets> is there a program I can use to ident my chipset and set xorg settings automatically?
[00:17] <jereme_> I was narrowing the results of my query by eliminating anyone who wouldn't have relevant experience
[00:17] <cellofellow> realityiswhere: I was explaining, ok? Sorry if I was too vague.
[00:17] <Sneakernets> soundray: that's not good :(
[00:17] <jeroenimo> ubotu: I wondered that too ... why people are so polite, but imagine when everyon in #ubuntu would reply to "Hello! Can someone help me" ?
[00:18] <Pici> jeroenimo: ubotu is a bot ;)
[00:18] <Flare183> ubotu: is a bot
[00:18] <ubotu> Yes, I can confirm that I am a bot. http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots for all information.
[00:18] <realityiswhere> cellofellow: if you go into System, Preferences, Sound, it'll show you the default mixer tracks controlled by your volume buttons
[00:18] <jeroenimo> Pici: I saw it after I whoised :P
[00:18] <cellofellow> The headset is a Logitech Premium 350 which works just by the standard USB plug-and-play soundcard stuff.
[00:18] <cellofellow> realityiswhere: ok, I've messed with that already though. Let me see what I have set ATM.
[00:18] <awerner32>  alright, i have a decent understanding of both how wine works and also the windows registry, would there be a way to import the wine registry keys and neccesary files to a windows install on a seperate partition and thus run apps already installed on that partition. I think it's theoretically possible but what would be the methodology required
[00:18] <realityiswhere> cellofellow: it should be set to PCM
[00:18] <Grab> hello
[00:18] <Grab> hope you can help me: i need to open port 828, what is the right command?
[00:18] <Flare183> !repeat | awerner32
[00:18] <ubotu> awerner32: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[00:19] <newtar> Grab: nc -lp 828 -q1
[00:19] <cellofellow> realityiswhere: set to Logitech USB Headset as the Device, and Speaker as the channel.
[00:19] <newtar> Grab: nc -lp 828
[00:19] <Sneakernets> ok maybe I need to talk to the xorg guys about low res support. :(

[00:19] <dystopianray> Grab: it's opened when a program starts listening on that port

[00:20] <Sneakernets> no, I shell
[00:20] <xenthro> Q: Where can i get a list of wifi usb dongles that work with ubuntu w/out ndiswrapper?
[00:20] <Sneakernets> *shall
[00:20] <Sneakernets> I know the guy that makes PRBoom plus
[00:20] <realityiswhere> cellofellow: for your HDA intel card, I'm pretty good with those, what chipset is your sound card?
[00:20] <dystopianray> Sneakernets: try prboom, it's my favourite
[00:20] <tyranos> hi , got a question , how can i make the nautilus file browser start windowed and not taking the fullscreen , if i maximize it it gets a pixel wider ,doesnt make sense to me
[00:20] <Sneakernets> alright :)
[00:20] <jeroenimo> xenthro: http://linux-wless.passys.nl
[00:20] <xenthro> ty
[00:20] <cellofellow> realityiswhere: it's SigmaTel STAC9200
[00:20] <dystopianray> Sneakernets: it's in the ubuntu repos
[00:21] <realityiswhere> cellofellow: do you have the backport modules package installed?
[00:21] <Dr_willis> tyranos,  sounds to me like its rembering its last opened size. and not reseting it when you close the window.
[00:21] <cellofellow> realityiswhere: MCP51 High Definition Audio with STAC9200 "codec".
[00:21] <newtar> tyranos: I use this alias: alias ge-nautilus='nautilus --browser "`pwd`" &'
[00:21] <cellofellow> realityiswhere: I do.
[00:22] <Sneakernets> dystopianray: so it is! yay, thanks.
[00:22] <mykas0> hi everyone
[00:22] <Sneakernets> I need to talk to the maintainer of chocodoom and see if we can get it submitted to the ubuntu repos when the testing is finished
[00:22] <realityiswhere> cellofellow: Have you tried any of the supposed fixed editing the alsa-base conf file?
[00:22] <realityiswhere> cellofellow: fixes*
[00:22] <telee> so i have a 300 gig HD and 100 gig are already partitioned for windows and i have my second partition with 215 GIGs for ubuntu.... now i am doing it manually and how should i split the rest of the 215 Gigs up for ubuntu.. should it all be ext3 or some ext2 and what about swap... i have 2 gig ram if that matters
[00:23] <cellofellow> realityiswhere: haven't heard that one yet.
[00:23] <realityiswhere> cellofellow: one moment
[00:23] <woz> @soundray: that still doesn't turn the display off
[00:23]  * cellofellow is sort of banking on Hardy fixing lots of stuff.
[00:23] <mykas0> I'm now installing the ubuntu-alternate, and it seems to be stuck on 18% for quite a while, during the "Selecting and installing software"  - is this a known issue?
[00:23] <Yasumoto> mykas0: are you installing on a laptop?
[00:23] <exneo_> hey how do I run the make file in the alsa driver
[00:23] <mykas0> Yasumoto, nope
[00:23] <jimmygoon> Is everyone's xchat working properly? (as in Ctrl+X doesn't try to close it)
[00:23] <mykas0> I'm installing in text mode
[00:23] <Dr_willis> telee,  no need to use ext2, how to do it - depends onyour needs.   You may want to put a little swap partition. (like 512mb) at the end just in case you ever need swap.
[00:24] <tyranos> Dr_willis, i dont think so , i got that same answer from someone else months ago , but i m pretty sure it s not the case , and how can it remember some size it was never set to  :( !!!
[00:24] <beasty> mm anyone knows in what repo 'ldap account manager' is in ?
[00:24] <soundray> woz: do you use the inhibit applet?
[00:24] <Yasumoto> mykas0: did you do the "check CD for errors" check before installing?
[00:24] <Stargazer> My printer isn't printing, when i hit "print" any ideas ?
[00:24] <exneo_> yasumoto how do I run the make file in the alsa driver its not a bash scrip
[00:24] <mykas0> Yasumoto, yes, I did
[00:24] <woz> @soundray: whats that?
[00:24] <telee> Dr_Willis: so basically ill just use it as a desktop and mythtv
[00:24] <Dr_willis> tyranos,  ive seen cases where its happened.    But i rarely use the gnome file manager much.
[00:24] <tyranos> what do u use ??
[00:24] <Yasumoto> mykas0: hm, interesting. have you tried to run it again?
[00:25] <dirkg3nt1y> exneo, have you tried ./configure first?
[00:25] <mykas0> Yasumoto, it's my second time attempting this installion - before, I had the very same problem
[00:25] <Dr_willis> telee,  for mythtv you might want to have a large partition set for /mythtv or for your recordings directory then. the #mythbuntu guys will proberly be able to guide you.
[00:25] <realityiswhere> cellofellow: is it a dell inspiron laptop by any chance?
[00:25] <Dr_willis> tyranos,  i tend to use mc in a terminal :)
[00:25] <cellofellow> No, gateway.
[00:25] <soundray> woz: it's a gnome applet that you can use to disable screensaving -- e.g. when you're watching a movie. I thought you might have set it to inhibit-mode inadvertently
[00:25] <cellofellow> realityiswhere: Gateway MT3423
[00:25] <Yasumoto> mykas0: darn :/ I tried to install on my mother's laptop and it would hang at 57% each time
[00:25] <woz> @soundray: any way for me to check that? i.e. a config file
[00:25] <mykas0> how did you fixed it?
[00:25] <Yasumoto> mykas0: turned out it was a bad hard drive
[00:26] <telee> so Dr_willis thanks
[00:26] <soundray> woz: not really -- you would probably know if you had it on your panel
[00:26] <mykas0> hum, that can't happen here - I tried installing it in a virtual machine too, and had the same problem
[00:26] <Yasumoto> mykas0: try searching launchpad or the forums for "installer hangs"
[00:27] <realityiswhere> cellofellow: try a 'sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base', should open a config file
[00:27] <woz> soundray: is it possible that folding@home or pidgin is preventing it from going to idle?
[00:27] <hellues> hey
[00:27] <hellues> i ave a quenstion
[00:27] <soundray> woz: I'd say that's unlikely
[00:27] <hellues> i am using firefox 3.0 gran paradiso
[00:27] <cellofellow> realityiswhere: got it
[00:27] <woz> soundray: ive tried killing both of those apps and unplugging the mouse to no avail.
[00:27] <hellues> http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/security/nss/releases/NSS_3_11_RTM/ i şnstalled nss 3.11
[00:28] <Yasumoto> mykas0: (i would check but I
[00:28] <hellues> but how can i work nss 3.11
[00:28] <Yasumoto> mykas0: *i'm in class right now)
[00:28] <Strangework> I accidentally deleted something with shift+del, is there any way to get the stuff back??
[00:28] <mykas0> ok
[00:28] <dirkg3nt1y> hellues, is firefox 3 better and the acid test the 2.0?
[00:28] <Juzzy`> hi guys, managed to get gparted open but it won't let me resize the partition
[00:28] <realityiswhere> cellofellow: try adding 'options snd-hda-intel model=5stack' in with the other "options" lines, underneath of the last one.
[00:28] <dystopianray> Strangework: restore from backup, otherwise no
[00:28] <Strangework> DAMN!
[00:28] <Strangework> ah well. thank you anyways
[00:29] <hellues> i dont know
[00:29] <shaark> juzzy:is there a lock icon next to the partition u want to resize?
[00:29] <soundray> woz: and you haven't got a second pointing device, like a trackpad or tablet?
[00:29] <cellofellow> realityiswhere: now what?
[00:29] <realityiswhere> cellofellow: you will unfortunately have to restart in order to see if it worked, after you save the file.
[00:29] <hellues> what is acid test
[00:29] <mykas0> can anyone help me, then? :\
[00:29] <Juzzy`> yes shaark
[00:29] <woz> soundray: only the touchpad on my laptop
[00:29] <soundray> woz: ah
[00:29] <hellues> dirkg3nt1y,  what is acid test
[00:29] <shaark> Juzzy: that partition is in use then u can't resize it
[00:29] <Juzzy`> i've tried unmouning the partition and then doing it
[00:29] <cellofellow> realityiswhere: actually, this file is really messy (I shink asoundconf has something to do with that.) Where can I get a clean one?
[00:29] <Juzzy`> but it still won't allow me
[00:30] <soundray> woz: try installing gsynaptics and disabling the trackpad. You have to make a modification to /etc/X11/xorg.conf for it to work
[00:30] <bazhang> http://www.webstandards.org/action/acid2/ hellues
[00:30] <shaark> Juzzy: did u try it from the live cd?
[00:30] <Juzzy`> yup thats what i'm using now
[00:30] <soundray> woz: I mean touchpad
[00:30] <Juzzy`> live cd (with the safe mode gfx)
[00:30] <woz> soundray: alright
[00:30] <shaark> Juzzy: try downloading the gpartd live cd that should work
[00:30] <realityiswhere> cellofellow: everyone's is quite messy, I assure you. it's best not to alter it
[00:31] <Juzzy`> shaark: I could probably just redo my linux install but i don't wanna mess up grub
[00:31] <woz> soundray: alright i installed gsynaptics and now im in the xorg.conf file, what should i edit
[00:31] <shaark> Juzzy: just try the gpartd live cd that should solve it and its a small download too
[00:31] <cellofellow> realityiswhere: I restarted alsasound and alsa-utils with init.d, and I now have no sound.
[00:32] <cellofellow> realityiswhere: I think if I tell to use my headset again it'll be fine.
[00:32] <dirkg3nt1y> hellues, the acid test tests how well a browser sticks to web standards: http://www.webstandards.org/files/acid2/test.html
[00:32] <osotogari> i have just edited /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist, do i have to reboot to load the blacklist?
[00:32] <Juzzy`> shaark: If I used the text-based installer cd would I be able to resize the partition there and reinstall ubuntu onto it?
[00:32] <bazhang> heh
[00:32] <hellues> http://www.webstandards.org/files/acid2/test.html#top
[00:32] <nemilar> osotogari: yeah, but you can just do 'sudo modprobe [module name]' and it will load it
[00:32] <hellues> whats this
[00:32] <hellues> :D
[00:32] <nemilar> osotogari: then you don't need to reboot
[00:33] <shaark> Juzzy: sorry haven't tried that before
[00:33] <Juzzy`> k
[00:33] <cellofellow> realityiswhere: uh oh. My headset isn't in `asoundconf list` anymore.
[00:33] <hellues> it is a face of cat
[00:33] <hellues> muhshshshhshs
[00:33] <osotogari> but i thought blacklist is to stop drivers from loading?
[00:33] <nemilar> Juzzy`: yeah you can resize partitions using the text-based installer... but I hope you are very comfortable with the command line
[00:33] <hellues> what does that mean
[00:33] <realityiswhere> cellofellow: you can try replacing the model=5stack with some other options, there are a lot of them.
[00:33] <dirkg3nt1y> hellues, it means firefox 3 is a hell of a lot better the firefox 2
[00:33] <nemilar> !ohmy
[00:33] <ubotu> Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly.
[00:34] <cellofellow> realityiswhere: never mind, just replugging it it helped.
[00:34] <Dr_willis> osotogari,  if a module is in the blacklist file - it wont automatically get loaded. You can still manually load it. I belive.
[00:34] <realityiswhere> cellofellow: hehe, good.
[00:34] <hellues> firefox 3 better then 2
[00:34] <hellues> hmm
[00:34] <woz> soundray: any idea what lines to edit on xorg.conf?
[00:34] <nemilar> hellues: it's still in beta though... on my install it is not stable at all.
[00:34] <pfarshim> ls
[00:34] <boinker> does anybody know how to install the wacom tablets...i tried doing it the usual way but x always messes up...whats the new setup anyone have any clues??
[00:34] <Talon> I saw a video a while ago were when you open a window it goes up in flames, does anyone know what thats called ?
[00:34] <nemilar> Talon: that's compiz
[00:34] <nemilar> !compiz
[00:34] <ubotu> Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - help in #compiz-fusion
[00:35] <Talon> OHh, so its built into that i gotta enable that some how :)
[00:35] <cellofellow> realityiswhere: I'm not to interested in getting the nvidia card working right away. I bet a clean install of Hardy will do more good than all this fiddling. I just can't figure out why only alsamixer can set the volume of this card properly.
[00:35] <boinker> the whole xorg.conf file has changed....so im thinking maybe the setup of wacom tablets have changed too...does anyone have any clue whats going on??
[00:35] <osotogari> @ Dr. Willis: Ok, what if it is already loaded, say the garmin_gps module has been black listed. Do I have to restart to prevent this from being loaded or can I reload my modules without a restart?
[00:35] <nemilar> Talon: correct, read the links above
[00:35] <boinker> anyone know at all?
[00:35] <nemilar> osotogari: rmmod is the command to remove a module
[00:35] <hellues> this cat is smiling in opera to
[00:35] <hellues> :D
[00:35] <cellofellow> realityiswhere: I mean the USB headset, not the nvidia hda card. (That seems to mix fine, just not play one peep.)
[00:36] <nemilar> hellues: opera has the best standards-compliancy of all the browsers
[00:36] <osotogari> @nemilar: thanks :)
[00:36] <Wiredtape_Away> hey, I'm trying to decide between ubuntu server edition or desktop edition.. I do plan to run an AMP setup on it, however, I also need some desktop stuff.. which way to go?
[00:36] <nemilar> osotogari: welcome
[00:36] <realityiswhere> cellofellow: I have a plantronics USB headset I could never get working properly either. The audio was fine, but recording never worked.
[00:36] <nemilar> Wiredtape_Away: desktop can run all the LAMP stuff just fine
[00:36] <Wiredtape_Away> nemilar, so what's special about the server edition?
[00:36] <nemilar> Wiredtape_Away: if you need the desktop stuff, install the desktop version
[00:36] <Stargazer> Printer not printing, and google isn't helping
[00:37] <soundray> woz: add this line to the InputDevice section that pertains to your touchpad: Option "SHMConfig" "true"
[00:37] <nemilar> Wiredtape_Away: it's got less bulk, none of the desktop apps like openoffice.org
[00:37] <soundray> woz: you will have to restart X
[00:37] <woz_> soundray: k
[00:37] <hellues> nemilar,  i cant use flash plugin in opera
[00:37] <nemilar> hellues: that makes two of us
[00:37] <cellofellow> realityiswhere: my problem is using the GNOME mixer, the volume buttons on my keyboard, or the volume buttons on the headse (which are hard to avoid hitting) are sporadic. Pushing up will cause the volume will go up and down, randomly muting and unmuting the left earphone.
[00:37] <Wiredtape_Away> nemilar, ok, thanks!
[00:37] <hellues> althrough i installed flash plugin
[00:37] <cellofellow> realityiswhere: only alsamixer works, which is a bit annoying.
[00:37] <nemilar> Wiredtape_Away: welcome
[00:38] <hellues> while installing i asks for mozilla but not ask for opera
[00:38] <hellues> .D
[00:38] <woz_> soundray: what will SHMConfig = true do to my touchpad?
[00:39] <soundray> woz_: it needs to be set to activate the configuration interface to your touchpad that gsynaptics uses
[00:39] <spithra> hello
[00:39] <woz_> soundray: alright, restarting
[00:40] <nemilar> it got quiet all of a sudden
[00:40] <emma> sudo apt-get install VLC
[00:40] <emma> is that the way I should do that?
[00:40] <Flare183> yeah really
[00:40] <emma> If I want to get VLC?
[00:40] <nemilar> emma: yup, that works
[00:40] <spithra> i new, so I installed ubuntu 6.06.  Is there a gui already installed or do I have to get one?
[00:40] <cellofellow> realityiswhere: on a side note, do you know how ESD works? Does it make it so that more than one or two programs can make sound at once?
[00:40] <Pici> emma: lowercase vlc
[00:40] <realityiswhere> cellofellow: that is really odd. Your default mixer is set to the usb headset and it won't change the volume that way?
[00:40] <nemilar> emma: I donno if it's case sensitive though
[00:40] <cellofellow> realityiswhere: it will, just sporadically.
[00:40] <nemilar> spithra: Ubuntu comes with Gnome, a desktop environment (GUI)
[00:41] <emma> I want to get somethign that will open the live video here -- http://www.cnn.com/
[00:41] <woz_> @soundray: alright now that ive restarted, what should i try? or should i just see if it will sleep now
[00:41] <spithra> <nemilar- so whats the command to run it
[00:42] <spithra> cause im just prompt with cammand line
[00:42] <realityiswhere> cellofellow: pulseaudio is actually supposed to do the same thing as ESD, only better
[00:42] <woz_> soundray: alright now that ive restarted, what should i try? or should i just see if it will sleep now
[00:42] <Flare183> I"m back anybody need some help with anything linux/software related
[00:42] <soundray> woz_: have a bit of patience before you repeat
[00:42] <phuzion> hahahahaha holy crap what just happened?  I have compiz installed, and I just saw my xchat network tree fly by for no reason at all...
[00:42] <woz_> soundray: hmm?
[00:42] <awerner32> emma, cnn uses a proprietary plugin to stream teh video which has no linux equivilent
[00:42] <soundray> woz_: start gsynaptics and disable the touchpad
[00:42] <nemilar> spithra: what was your question again?
[00:43] <Flare183> phuzion: it's called lag
[00:43] <spithra> run a gui
[00:43] <emma> Flare183,  I might. .I need to be able to watch the republican debate on www.cnn.com
[00:43] <spiiph> Hi. I'm trying to configure tikiwiki, using database setup with dbconfig-common. However, The configuration keeps trying to setup the database without asking me for the database administration password. Is there some option to dbconfig-common I have missed to set?
[00:43] <cellofellow> realityiswhere: well, there are (correct me if I'm wrong) like four high-level sound API's: jack, esd, arts, and pulseaudio. And so few programs seem to actually support them.
[00:43] <nemilar> spithra: gnome will startup automatically
[00:43] <woz_> soundray: i didnt know if putting @ in front of the name showed up as a message for you. beginner with xchat.
[00:43] <Flare183> emma: ok does it use flash or what one sec i look
[00:43] <phuzion> Flare183, I don't think so, my system runs fine, C2D E4500 with 2GB of RAM and a GeForce 8600 GTS
[00:44] <d_test> k, im seriously mad at this installer..
[00:44] <d_test> it won't work!
[00:44] <Flare183> phuzion: no internet lag
[00:44] <bazhang> phuzion: network lag
[00:44] <Flare183> as in internet lag
[00:44] <spithra> nemilar> it doesnt
[00:44] <soundray> woz_: whether or not it highlights is a function of my IRC client, not yours...
[00:44] <d_test> it just disapears after a while
[00:44] <woz_> soundray: ahh ok
[00:45] <woz_> soundray: alright im gonna give it a shot
[00:45] <Flare183> emma: ok i'm on the cnn.com's site
[00:45] <sneakmonkey> hey
[00:45] <cellofellow> realityiswhere: I wish there was an X11 extension for sound, or something like that. Any X11 (or GTK or OpenGL) program could then use it.
[00:45] <phuzion> Flare183 and bazhang you guys know what I'm talking about, the network tree, where it shows what networks and channels you are talking about, right?  that shouldn't be affected by network lag
[00:45] <realityiswhere> cellofellow: ossv4 is actually worth looking into as well
[00:45] <emma> Flare183,  cool. I hope to be able to watch the debate. So I can see Ron Paul.
[00:45] <cellofellow> realityiswhere: oh, I forgot about OpenAL for games too.
[00:45] <realityiswhere> cellofellow: i used it instead of ALSA for a while when i was running into the same problems you are now.
[00:45]  * cellofellow gives emma a high-five!
[00:45] <bazhang> oftopic emma
[00:45] <emma> :D
[00:46] <Flare183> phuzion: oh yeah I know
[00:46] <oich> how can I install a python module using easy_install, without setpping on ubuntu's package manager files?
[00:46] <Flare183> :)
[00:46] <d_test> can anyone guide me to install ubuntu?!
[00:46] <Flare183> !install | d_test
[00:46] <ubotu> d_test: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - Don't want to use a CD? Try http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate
[00:46] <zed_> hi, I screwed up and removed udev instead of rewriting it with the apt-get remove command
[00:46] <cellofellow> realityiswhere: I also have some problems with OSS emulation. How the heck do I configure that?
[00:47] <lanzelloth> !wireless
[00:47] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[00:47] <emma> Flare183,  is there any known way to watch the CNN stream with Ubuntu?
[00:47] <mykas0> I'm now installing the ubuntu-alternate, and it seems to be stuck on 18% for quite a while, during the "Selecting and installing software"  - is this a known issue?
[00:47] <zed_> anyone know how I can reload it from the disk?
[00:47] <realityiswhere> cellofellow: i was never any good with regular OSS sorry :(
[00:47] <d_test> Flare183: not there
[00:47] <Flare183> emma: don't know yet seems that it is "incompatible right now
[00:47] <soundray> mykas0: no, it probably means that your burn failed
[00:47] <cellofellow> realityiswhere: I need for a couple of programs, like I would really like to be able to use Audacity to record both input and output without regard for device.
[00:47] <d_test> it just disappears after a while
[00:47] <emma> ohoh
[00:47] <Flare183> d_test: what do you mean the entire this is the guide
[00:47] <d_test> very, very annoying
[00:47] <cellofellow> realityiswhere: oh, well.
[00:48] <mykas0> soundray, I tried using the ISO by itself, in a Virtual Machine, and it doesn't work either. I also checked for errors, and it displays none
[00:48] <woz_> soundray: display still stays on
[00:48] <d_test> the installer says, installing system, then just closes after a while
[00:48] <eric> hey people
[00:48] <cellofellow> realityiswhere: As far as I know, OSS emulation is a part of ALSA where stuff going through /dev/dsp is routed through ALSA instead of directly through OSS.
[00:48] <eric> i just installed ubuntu
[00:48] <soundray> woz_: sorry I can't seem to help
[00:48] <eric> and irssi
[00:48] <woz_> soundray: alright, thanks anyways
[00:49] <woz_> Why won't my display go to sleep after 2 minutes?
[00:49] <realityiswhere> cellofellow: do you have the alsa-oss wrapper package?
[00:49] <zed_> anyone know how to reload the kernel from the disk without having to re-install?
[00:49] <mykas0> arg, this sure is a huge problem ;___;
[00:49] <awerner32> emma: it can be done through wine and a windows browser
[00:49] <cellofellow> realityiswhere: great call
[00:49] <emma> Hm... Wine!
[00:49] <emma> Okay.. hmmmm.
[00:49] <realityiswhere> cellofellow: that may solve some issues hehe
[00:50] <emma> a windows browser though..
[00:50] <Talon> [Stupid Question] whats the default '<Super>' button ?
[00:50] <emma> So wine and IE?
[00:50] <realityiswhere> Talon: the windows key between control and alt
[00:50] <Talon> Thanks mate
[00:50] <nugz1212> hey whenever i hit ctrl-alt-backspace or logout everything goes away except for the wallpaper and it freezes, what can i don to correct this?
[00:50] <fluvvell> zed_ : reload the kernel in what respect?
[00:50] <nugz1212> do*
[00:50] <bad_cables> anyone seen the issues with the rt61 wireless PCI driver?
[00:50] <soundray> zed_: you want to reinstall the kernel .deb package?
[00:50] <eric> don't know if i should ask this but does anyone know of a good torrent program for ubuntu?
[00:50] <zed_> I want to reinstall the udev package
[00:51] <realityiswhere> eric: deluge, transmission, azureus
[00:51] <nugz1212> eric transmisson
[00:51] <zed_> I think it took the kernel  with it
[00:51] <eric> i thought transmission was for mac os x only/
[00:51] <eric> ?
[00:51] <nugz1212> sry transmission, its my favorite
[00:51] <bad_cables> i compiled the module and installed it, i even blacklisted my old one now when i reboot it shows 0% strength on all available networks
[00:51] <realityiswhere> eric: it's in the repos
[00:51] <zed_> so now I can't boot
[00:51] <eric> nice thanks realityiswhere.
[00:51] <nugz1212> would reinstalling GDM packages solve my problem?
[00:51] <emma> I do have wine installed, but how do I load IE (from my windows partition) through Wine?
[00:51] <soundray> zed_: did you uninstall udev?
[00:51] <zed_> yes
[00:52] <zed_> I screwed up
[00:52] <soundray> zed_: can you boot from a live CD?
[00:52] <zed_> there right now
[00:52] <cellofellow> nugz1212: probably a bad X.Org configuration.
[00:52] <nugz1212> no its not tht
[00:52] <fluvvell> zed_: where does it get to in the boot sequence?
[00:52] <zed_> error 15
[00:52] <zed_> nothing else
[00:52] <eric> alright. i'm gonna go on my mac. brb.
[00:52] <Flare183> emma: in the program files folder
[00:52] <matt3243> can anyone help me out with my wireless connection? it seems to drop out every 5 or 10 minutes.... really frustrating, WPA ASCII key, DLink router, Linksys Nic, 802.11G
[00:52] <soundray> zed_: can you mount the root partition?
[00:52] <Flare183> emma: got that?
[00:52] <nugz1212> default xorg.conf does the same thing, and ive tried many kernels all with same problems
[00:52] <emma> Flare183,  you mean the wine program files?
[00:53] <zed_> I think so
[00:53] <emma> I only have one program in there.
[00:53] <awerner32> emma: you could either try to mount the windows partition and make that work by jsut running the binaries but that has problems with registry inconsistancies generall, i recomend just downloading the windows version of firefox or opera in linux and install it onto your wine psuedo-install and then install flashplayer
[00:53] <soundray> zed_: is that grub error 15?
[00:53] <emma> How do I include IE as one of the files in my Wine program files?
[00:53] <Flare183> emma: yeah either that or windows's partition's program files (if applicatable)
[00:53] <zed_> yes
[00:53] <emma> Okay I'll download the windows firefox.
[00:53] <Flare183> ok
[00:53] <emma> I'm not sure how do I get wine to execute it though if you get me.
[00:54] <emma> Where am I supposed to save windows firefox too?
[00:54] <mykas0> I'm now installing the ubuntu-alternate, and it seems to be stuck on 18% for quite a while, during the "Selecting and installing software". What should I do, if I'm using an ISO and it has no errors?
[00:54] <awerner32> yeah ubuntu will actually run the exe installer by default
[00:54] <awerner32> emma: your desktop works
[00:54] <ThreeFingerPete> I have a novel question(I hope). with windows xp, much past 2 gigs of ram windows doesnt make any use of it. what about ubuntu?
[00:54] <awerner32> emma: anywhere because it's a self-extracting cabinent that will extract by default onto your wine drive
[00:54] <Linuxishaw1> Does anyone know if can make moblock run only on one interface?
[00:55] <^Elfboy> i was woundering if i insrall the server pac do i have to hook up a monater and all tha
[00:55] <hellues> quenstion
[00:55] <emma> Okay that sounds promising
[00:55] <hellues> what is dom inspector
[00:55] <awerner32> emma: it's the same process as installing an app in windows
[00:55] <^Elfboy> or can i set up in ssh
[00:55] <fluvvell> emma: look into ie4linux, it does it all for you.
[00:55] <soundray> ThreeFingerPete: if you have a 64bit CPU (e.g. Core 2 Duo), you can install the amd64 version of Ubuntu and use RAM up to a few terabytes
[00:55] <shaark> ThreeFingerPete: use 64bit release
[00:55] <hellues> firefox-3.0-dom-inspector
[00:55] <hellues> what is dom-inspector
[00:55] <emma> says it cannot be done
[00:55] <hellues> :D
[00:56] <emma> says there is no suitable thing to open firefoxsetup .exe
[00:56] <v> is there an equivalent of pidgin-rhythmbox for vlc?
[00:56] <soundray> ThreeFingerPete: the i386 version has the same issue -- it's an addressing problem.
[00:56] <^Elfboy> i was woundering if i insrall the server pac do i have to hook up a monater and all that do i have to pulug in monater mouse and k-bore?
[00:56] <ThreeFingerPete> soundray: thank you. so I could actually emulate a swap in the remaining ram?
[00:57] <syntaxerror55> The_entropy: however, just like 64-bit XP, some things cannot be used on 64-bit Ubuntu. From the soudn of things, you're using 32bit XP
[00:57] <soundray> ThreeFingerPete: no
[00:57] <sneakmonkey> hello, i have a question about the how to install off of a flash drive tutorial https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick
[00:57] <jimmygoon> What would cause a random application to exit on Ctrl+X?
[00:57] <ThreeFingerPete> soundray: thanks. I was thinking I could because the bios detects it
[00:57] <awerner32> emma: go to a command line and type wine "/path/to/firefox.exe"
[00:57] <^Elfboy> i was woundering if i insrall the server pac do i have to hook up a monater and all that do i have to pulug in monater mouse and k-bore?
[00:57] <syntaxerror55> ThreeFingerPete: the above was directed at you
[00:57] <hellues> dom-inspector
[00:58] <mouseboyx> Jimmygoon, if ctrl+X is the shortcut for quitting.
[00:58] <sneakmonkey> about the preparing the Flash Drive with isotostick.sh, im not fully clear on how to do that part, i downloaded the files it links to but dont know where to go from there
[00:58] <^Elfboy> ????
[00:58] <jimmygoon> mouseboyx, no, and I'm the only person having trouble with this program - I'm having it in both the ubuntu version and compiled from src
[00:58] <CarlF1> how can I get "search pw.com" added to /etc/resolve.conf each time it gets created ?
[00:58] <ThreeFingerPete> syntaxerror55: that is correct, 32 bit xp
[00:58] <Jangari> does anyone know if there's a program that can concatenate sound files? pcm wav?
[00:59] <syntaxerror55> ThreeFingerPete: such as: Flash won't work, and some other stuff.
[00:59] <^Elfboy> i was woundering if i install  the server pac do i have to hook up a monater and all that do i have to pulug in monater mouse and k-bore?
[00:59] <cellofellow> realityiswhere: I think to get ALSA OSS to work I need to get rid of real OSS.
[00:59] <ThreeFingerPete> syntaxerror55: whats that about flash?
[00:59] <bazhang> www.pendrivelinux.com sneakmonkey
[00:59] <Flare183> !repeat | ^Elfboy
[00:59] <ubotu> ^Elfboy: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[00:59] <soundray> syntaxerror55, ThreeFingerPete: Adobe Flash plugin works fine on my 64bit machine
[00:59] <jack-desktop> how do you make a file executable?
[01:00] <realityiswhere> cellofellow: i believe that is true as well, it's a wrapper for OSS so it's still using alsa
[01:00] <jack-desktop> somethig 666?
[01:00] <soundray> !flash64 | ThreeFingerPete
[01:00] <ubotu> ThreeFingerPete: You can run Flash, Real, and Java plugins in AMD64 bit computers with Firefox. see the steps to follow at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava
[01:00] <Flare183> jack-desktop: bad number
[01:00] <cellofellow> realityiswhere: andy idea what to remove?
[01:00] <emma> Didn't work.
[01:00] <ThreeFingerPete> soundray and syntax: flash plug in is fine on mine too
[01:00] <jack-desktop> Flare183, do you know how?
[01:00] <Flare183> emma: that's whack
[01:00] <zed_> soundray can I copy a initrd from the disk to the hd?
[01:00] <emma> I have firefox.exe on my windows partition but I don't know how to point wine to it
[01:00] <syntaxerror55> soundray: I'm a bit behind on the times, then
[01:00] <soundray> ThreeFingerPete: but you haven't got a 64bit OS
[01:00] <Flare183> jack-desktop: yeah use chmod
[01:00] <tdrusk> whats the new remote desktop program in hardy?
[01:01] <Flare183> jack-desktop: check out man chmod
[01:01] <syntaxerror55> emma: wine /windows/path/to/firefox.exe
[01:01] <jack-desktop> Flare183, what number?
[01:01] <Flare183> jack-desktop: 777
[01:01] <soundray> syntaxerror55: it's certainly not thanks to Adobe and their backwards support policy ;)
[01:01] <jimmygoon> mouseboyx, I figured it out. I had dvorak keyboard installed BUT NOT IN USE... and when I disabled it the problem went away..... is ctrl some modfiied for "switch keyboard layout"?
[01:01] <Flare183> jack-desktop: that means everyone can run it, read it and, write to it
[01:01] <ThreeFingerPete> soundray: it seems that way.
[01:01] <^Elfboy> i was woundering if i install  the server pac do i have to hook up a monater and all that do i have to pulug in monater mouse and k-bore?
[01:01] <awerner32> emma: you may have to moung the windows partition too, but generally running in wine applications installed from a different windows install will lead to major problems because windows applications are tied to the registry and wine addresses it
[01:01] <soundray> zed_: no, but you can regenerate it -- hold on
[01:01] <Flare183> emma: try opera then
[01:02] <jack-desktop> Flare183, so: sudo chmod 777 <file>?
[01:02] <awerner32> emma: it's own registry
[01:02] <syntaxerror55> soundray: Still, I don't recommend the AMD64, because other apps don't work that I can't remember as I've never used AMD64 Ubuntu, just seen people complain here.
[01:02] <Flare183> jack-desktop: yeah....
[01:02] <emma> Well it just didn't work out .
[01:02] <awerner32> emma: so it is better to install the app onto the wine psuedo-windows
[01:02] <lanzelloth_> hi, i need help with centrino platform wireless card
[01:02] <zed_> even if I unload the kernel when I ran apt-get remove udev?
[01:02] <emma> The debate is starting so I have to switch over to Microsoft for tonight.
[01:02] <Flare183> emma: ok i would still try wine's ie
[01:03] <realityiswhere> cellofellow: maybe you don't. there seems to be no specific OSS package that doesn't also involve alsa
[01:03] <Jordan_U> syntaxerror55, Basically, 99.999% of Open Source projects support 64 bit, the problems come from proprietary stuff
[01:03] <^Elfboy> i was woundering if i install  the server pac do i have to hook up a monater and all that do i have to pulug in monater mouse and k-bore?
[01:03] <Jangari> emma, i might have missed something, but can't you use firefox in ubuntu?
[01:03] <awerner32> emma: i just finished an ie4linux install, let me check if i can get cnn to work with it
[01:03] <emma> Ok.
[01:03] <ssf>  /join #ubuntu-cn
[01:03] <Flare183> Jangari: no becuase the cnn site won't let her
[01:03] <Dr_willis> zsnes dosent support 64bit - due to its use of assembly language in the code. :(
[01:03] <syntaxerror55> Jordan_U: that is necessary to using computers.
[01:03] <Jangari> oh!
[01:03] <Jangari> i know
[01:03] <soundray> syntaxerror55: it used to be a real issue. With gutsy, it still takes a bit of trickery, but everything so far has worked for me, including googleearth and skype, all owing to the work of the good Medibuntu people

[01:03] <emma> www.cnn.com  has a live stream that I can't get Ubuntu to work with.

[01:03] <Jangari> get that extension for firefox where you can make your browser appear as IE
[01:03] <syntaxerror55> soundray: ah, I'm still using Dapper. I'm sorry
[01:03] <ssf> thanks
[01:04] <Flare183> no problem
[01:04] <Jangari> if that is indeed the problem
[01:04] <bruenig> Jangari, agent switcher?
[01:04] <linchapulin> I have been perusing some of the /usr/doc folders to create a batch of links to what I thought would be most of the in depth documentation for everything installed on my system. Why is it some folders only contain files that are .gz and don't really contain any meaningful information?
[01:04] <Jangari> something like that, bruenig
[01:04] <Jordan_U> syntaxerror55, No it's not. People ( mostly crazy, but people none the less ) get along with gnusense
[01:04] <soundray> syntaxerror55: what for ;)
[01:04] <Roberto> hi people.. does anyone here understand about RAID to help me to configure Grub?
[01:04] <shaark> Jordan_U: ca?n 32 bit apps work on AMD64
[01:04] <Flare183> !raid
[01:04] <ubotu> Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO - For software RAID, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto
[01:04] <bruenig> Jangari, but it may not be an agent problem
[01:04] <jimmygoon> Can anyone else confirm a bug : When having another keyboard layout available (like Dvorak) even when not in use.... causes Ctrl+X to fire the event for Ctrl+Q etc?

[01:04] <Jangari> right, i was just about to say that if it was a flash thing, then it's a little bit more of an issue
[01:05] <Flare183> haha
[01:05] <Jordan_U> shaark, Yes, usually using a 32 bit chroot
[01:05] <linchapulin> In other words where does some of this documentation disappear to? Seems crazy to have to look at synaptic everytime I need to ferret out the docs?

[01:05] <^Elfboy>  i was woundering if i install  the server pac do i have to hook up a monater and all that do i have to pulug in monater mouse and k-bore?
[01:06] <unicum> i have a problem with my windowlist
[01:06] <Dr_willis> looks like cnn.com is using winows media player for its video.
[01:06] <syntaxerror55> Jordan_U: alright, I rest my case. but it did used to be a real issue.
[01:06] <unicum> i kicked the one that was in the panel after the fresh installation out
[01:06] <awerner32> emma: i got an install of opera in wine working perfectly with the cnn live feed on linux
[01:06] <unicum> now i put one in the panel again.. thing is.. the windows don't appear as icon anymore, but more like a button
[01:06] <awerner32> emma: it is definately doable
[01:06] <ThreeFingerPete> what is broken about flash? it works fine for me in gutsy
[01:07] <Flare183> !flashissues
[01:07] <ubotu> The Flash plugin installation is currently broken. This is due to Adobe changing the tar file that the package downloads. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=636397 if you need to fix this immediately, but it's recommended to wait for an official fix.
[01:07] <Jordan_U> ThreeFingerPete, New installs are broken
[01:07] <Juzzy`> I have succesfully used gparted to resize the partition, I have now rebooted into the ubuntu install and it shows the new size of the partition but it also still shows the same amount of free space left (like its automatically used up the space i gave it)
[01:07] <unicum> also.. if i klick on the button the window will not shrink into this button, like in the windows systray but instad falls down to the lower panel
[01:07] <^Elfboy> why  would u want to run  opera in win
[01:07] <feierfox> hello! i have some problems with my ubuntu, is Mark Shuttleworth for help me to fix it? I think, he is the guy behind ubuntu...
[01:07] <^Elfboy> wine
[01:07] <Flare183> Juzzy`: duh you must resize the other one too
[01:07] <ThreeFingerPete> Jordan_U, thanks. good thing I had it installed!
[01:07] <feierfox> +here
[01:07] <unicum> how do i get the window list to be like the one it was after installation?
[01:07] <feierfox> helping
[01:07] <Juzzy`> other one?
[01:07] <Flare183> holy cow
[01:08] <feierfox> no, i guess only mark Shuttleworth is able to help me
[01:08] <^Elfboy>  i was woundering if i install  the server pac do i have to hook up a monater and all that do i have to pulug in monater mouse and k-bore?
[01:08] <feierfox> HE is THE ubuntu guy, right?
[01:08] <Flare183> feierfox: yeap
[01:08] <unicum> well, thx anyway
[01:08] <Flare183> feierfox: the main dude who started it all
[01:08] <ThreeFingerPete> feierfox: hes the patron of the ubuntu project
[01:08] <unicum> is anyone actually reading me?
[01:08] <feierfox> so, i will wait for him for helping me with my problem
[01:08] <ThreeFingerPete> unicum, i can read you
[01:08] <^Elfboy> lol
[01:09] <Flare183> feierfox: dude i don't think i will even help you
[01:09] <Juzzy`> Flare183, I have resized the / partition to 20gb, but it still shows the same amount of free space
[01:09] <^Elfboy>  i was woundering if i install  the server pac do i have to hook up a monater and all that do i have to pulug in monater mouse and k-bore?
[01:09] <Dr_willis> unicum,   i see ya. but no idea what youa re talking about
[01:09] <eugman> Is there anything for reading pdf's from the command line?
[01:09] <unicum> k, so i'm not ignored by the channel
[01:09] <Tm_T> feierfox: no he will not be here to help you here
[01:09] <shaark> feierfox: I doubt he does the support lol
[01:09] <Flare183> Juzzy`: try creating another partition then
[01:09] <unicum> well.. i'm using ubuntu/gnome
[01:09] <feierfox> don care about a drunken german ;/
[01:09] <levander> Is there no way to have my GNOME panels show up on one workspace, but not on another?
[01:09] <ThreeFingerPete> unicum: nope, but i am a newb, and no help to you
[01:09] <unicum> u might know the panels (like taskbars)
[01:09] <soundray> unicum: move your window list around a bit. It may not have enough space
[01:09] <bad_cables> anyone in here know why RaLink RT2561/RT61 wireless is seeing 0% signal strength?
[01:09] <K_Dallas> Good evening guys! I look into a site where it explained how to open docx (word2007) in openoffice but the link it had for convertor or so was dead.  Is this the only way to do so far and is it reliable? thanks (the page was for use in ubuntu gusty)
[01:09] <Flare183> admins: Kinda stupid question: is Mark Shuttleworth around to talk
[01:09] <bad_cables> i just installed the new rt61 driver
[01:10] <jetscreamer> lol
[01:10] <^Elfboy>  i was woundering if i install  the server pac do i have to hook up a monater and all that do i have to pulug in monater mouse and k-bore?
[01:10] <^Elfboy> come one
[01:10] <^Elfboy> some one had to know this
[01:10] <Juzzy`> ^Elfboy,  learn to spell, it helps people out
[01:10] <Flare183> yeah really
[01:10] <PriceChild> Flare183, he's away atm.
[01:10] <unicum> soundray thing is.. the windowlist shows buttons instead of icons.. if i have only one window open the button is as big as the list itself.. if i have multiple windows open the buttons get smaller and smaller
[01:10] <soundray> K_Dallas: docx files open reasonably well in OOo 2.3 without any add-ons
[01:10] <Flare183> PriceChild: that figures
[01:10] <bad_cables> does anyone here know about wireless?
[01:11] <Dr_willis> ^Elfboy,  you may want to fix all those typos.. Im not even sure what you are asking...
[01:11] <bad_cables> im  having issues
[01:11] <K_Dallas> soundray, well i give it a try. what about pptx ?
[01:11] <mouseboyx> unicum, If you play with it it will eventualy work.
[01:11] <unicum> the "default window list" has icons for the windows and resizes itself with the number of windows
[01:11] <Flare183> feierfox: see
[01:11] <ThreeFingerPete> soundray, syntax55 and others: thanks for your help. bye!
[01:11] <soundray> K_Dallas: haven't tried
[01:11] <Flare183> oh nevermind
[01:11] <soundray> ThreeFingerPete: good luck
[01:11] <unicum> mouseboyx sure? like just playing with the size?
[01:11] <mouseboyx> I don't know, set it back to the default?
[01:11] <oich> does python easy_install interfere with dpkg?
[01:12] <K_Dallas> soundray, i think pptx was more complicated but i try it again when i boot back to linux, thanks
[01:12] <unicum> there is no such option in the preferences
[01:12] <^Elfboy> i i want to know if i need to plug in mon mouse  k-board to set up the server pack
[01:12] <Slade^^> #kicevo
[01:12] <Slade^^> :)
[01:12] <unicum> as i said.. i deleted the old one
[01:12] <linchapulin> Is there an IDE for Ruby?
[01:12] <unicum> and then put in one from.. "add to panel"
[01:12] <mouseboyx> old one what?
[01:12] <mouseboyx> Window list?
[01:12] <bad_cables> anyone know how to enable the RaLink rt61 in ubuntu?
[01:12] <unicum> the windowlist that was in the panel after the fresh installation
[01:12] <unicum> yes
[01:12] <mouseboyx> Try moving it around.
[01:12] <soundray> zed_: look into the update-initramfs command. You can run it in a chroot
[01:13] <mouseboyx> Or rebooting unicum have you tried that?
[01:13] <Slade^^> #j kicevo
[01:13] <unicum> my comp is always shut down when i'm done
[01:13] <unicum> i reboot like a thousand times
[01:13] <realityiswhere> ^Elfboy: you would have to plug in a mouse, keyboard and monitor to do the initial setup, yes. after that you can set up ssh tunnelling and then do it remotely.
[01:13] <zed_> I guess I don't know how to get root then
[01:14] <zed_> I can access all my files
[01:14] <unicum> moving the windowlist only makes the buttons grow bigger by the space the windowlist gains.. thing is.. they are buttons now.. not icons anymore
[01:14] <singlesun> su?
[01:14] <zed_> tried that
[01:14] <^Elfboy> realityiswhere:  thanks
[01:14] <singlesun> zed_, i just stepped in, whats the problem?
[01:15] <mouseboyx> unicum, are you sure its not window selector? put another window list on the pannel
[01:15] <d_test> if i install ubuntu 6.06, can i update to the newest version?
[01:15] <bad_cables> i downloaded the working driver for gutsy, everything went smooth, but now when i reboot i get a 0% signal to all the routers and i cant connect... RaLink rt61 chipset
[01:15] <jack-desktop> should ~/.dbus/user-dbus-address be created automatically by dbus?
[01:15] <unicum> already done that
[01:15] <realityiswhere> d_test: you should be able to do a dist-upgrade to the newest version, yes.
[01:15] <soundray> zed_: do a 'sudo -i' followed by 'chroot /mnt bash' (assuming that you've mounted your partition to /mnt). The run update-initramfs
[01:15] <mouseboyx> Can you send me  a screen shot?
[01:15] <zed_> singlesun: I ran "sudo apt-get remove udev" think I could just reload it, it took my kernel with it and crashed the system, now I get grub error 15
[01:15] <d_test> realityiswhere: ok thanks
[01:15] <unicum> i think i can.. got icq or something?
[01:16] <zed_> I want to reload the kernel from the disk if possible
[01:16] <mouseboyx> I have xchat.
[01:16] <unicum> thing is.. i can not show you the old setup for it is gone, as i said
[01:16] <unicum> right.. mom
[01:16] <singlesun> zed_, ouch
[01:16] <unicum> hrhr
[01:16] <bad_cables> yes i did a depmod -a and modprobe rt61
[01:16] <zed_> I'm a noob
[01:16] <ep2011> I have a question about volume... I configured my volume keys on my wireless keyboard, and when I press them it shows the volume changing, but nothing happens... Any ideas?
[01:16] <singlesun> zed_, i am too, so that is beyond me... lol
[01:16] <das88> hey, I've got a newbie question about a via video driver in 7.10: I have a driver from VIA but it's made for fedora core 4. the autoinstall program they give doesn't work on my system and I'm wondering if I can recompile it
[01:16] <ep2011> For example, the mute button doesn't mute, but in keyboard shortcuts I set it to mute
[01:16] <soundray> zed_: did you get me?
[01:16] <singlesun> zed_, reinstall? lol
[01:17] <zed_> soundray no, sun I want to avoid that
[01:17] <soundray> zed_: do a 'sudo -i' followed by 'chroot /mnt bash' (assuming that you've mounted your partition to /mnt). The run update-initramfs
[01:17] <mouseboyx> Can you send it unicum ?
[01:17] <jimmygoon> Is gran paradiso really that far behind b2?
[01:17] <d_test> realityiswhere: can i upgrade using a 7.10 disk?
[01:17] <jimmygoon> !granparadiso
[01:17] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about granparadiso - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[01:17] <singlesun> i believe zed_ said he could get root though
[01:17] <jimmygoon> !gran paradiso
[01:17] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gran paradiso - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[01:17] <jimmygoon> !firefox3
[01:17] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about firefox3 - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[01:18] <realityiswhere> d_test: i believe you would need the alternate disk, i'm not sure if you can update off of a livecd
[01:18] <zed_> /usr/sbin/chroot: /usr/sbin/chroot: cannot execute binary file
[01:18] <soundray> d_test: you'd have to get the alternate install CD to upgrade from a disk
[01:18] <d_test> ok
[01:18] <phuzion> anyone with compiz got a cool clouds picture that I can use for skydome that comes together pretty well and doesn't show a hard line anywhere?
[01:19] <singlesun> phuzion, i would also like that cool clouds picture ;)
[01:19] <ep2011> Can someone help me get my volume keys to work?
[01:19] <ququ> thanks for chatting! bey!
[01:19] <zed_> so not getting root, soundray can we private chat please?
[01:19] <soundray> zed_: it seems that there is more amiss than just your initrd. Can't see how you'll get around a reinstall.
[01:19] <singlesun> phuzion, i did use some of the "matrix looking green letter pictures" that seemed to work well
[01:19] <zed_> durn
[01:19] <soundray> zed_: sorry, I'm logging off in a minute
[01:19] <unicum> i will make a second one and send it too.. mom
[01:19] <zed_> no way to do some sort of recovery and not just a clean install?
[01:20] <dolphin_noel> someone knows why when i click in my mouse in the right buttom the mouse simple just execute the menu command and crates me many times foulders and other stuff :x
[01:20] <unicum> i resized the windowlist so it groups the symbols.. that's good
[01:20] <das88> can anyone help a newbie try and install a video driver?
[01:20] <soundray> zed_: you can always rescue your /home and /etc directories to save yourself some work after the reinstall
[01:20] <unicum> but actually it shouldn't be buttons
[01:20] <zed_> thanks
[01:21] <bad_cables> das88, why do you need a video driver installed?
[01:21] <Slade^^> guys! can I ask u some thing??
[01:21] <unicum> there should by tiny icons, all square, small and nice
[01:21] <das88> because I'm stuck in 800x600
[01:21] <unicum> there are not :(
[01:21] <soundray> zed_: also save your package cache /var/cache/apt/archives if you have updated online
[01:21] <Slade^^> why wine i cant instal?
[01:21] <singlesun> phuzion, hey maybe this will work http://www.beryl-themes.org/CONTENT/content-pre1/55604-1.jpg you like that one?
[01:21] <bad_cables> das88, that doesn't always mean that you need to install another driver
[01:21] <Slade^^> it says wheb I try to instal
[01:21] <realityiswhere> Slade^^: are you able to be more specific?
[01:21] <dolphin_noel> das88 i use mplayer manually instalation but ubuntu come whith some auto search codecinstalation probably you nede to change your pakage sources to universe
[01:21] <JoeThomas> Hi I did a server install of gutsy and want to get DWM on there but I need x first. How can I get X on there and NOT Gnome.
[01:22] <jack-desktop> how can i use dbus?
[01:22] <Slade^^> yes
[01:22] <bad_cables> das88, what video card is it?
[01:22] <das88> dolphin: could you explain that a little more simply? sorry
[01:22] <wastrel> x-window-system-core
[01:22] <mouseboyx> use window selector instead then unicum.
[01:22] <JoeThomas> thanks
[01:22] <das88> its a chrome9 chipset, integrated graphics ona VIA laptop motherboard
[01:22] <wastrel> hrm no i guess it's just   xorg
[01:22] <wastrel> nowadays
[01:22] <eugman> I've been trying to edit my interfaces file but I can't do it right. What would I add to make eth1 run after the computer boots up?
[01:23] <bad_cables> das88, is there something in the bios about shared memory for the video card?
[01:23] <Slade^^> it says: there has been a problem during the instalation of the folloving pieces of software
[01:23] <wastrel> eugman: auto eth1    anywhere in the file should work
[01:23] <das88> I don't believe so
[01:23] <das88> the bios on here is pretty stripped down
[01:23] <Slade^^> ??
[01:23] <singlesun> phuzion, here is a better one, my bad...  http://www.beryl-themes.org/CONTENT/content-files/55604-Beryl-cloud-dome.jpg
[01:23] <unicum> mouseboyx windowselector is only one icon which includes the windows of all workspaces
[01:23] <eugman> watrel, hmm I'll try that again then.
[01:23] <Slade^^> I cant instal cause of that
[01:24] <bpa> hello all
[01:24] <unicum> also it always shows only the selected window
[01:24] <lanzelloth__> help! i sent something to trash but it's not in the trash
[01:24] <Marvin-TMDR> http://tinyurl.com/2ftdlt
[01:24] <Marvin-TMDR> lol
[01:24] <unicum> ah, darn
[01:24] <bad_cables> das88, you might want to check that out, i use a VIA mobo and it has an integrated video card, if i dont set the ram to share 8 mb, then i cant have anything more than 800x600
[01:24] <nickrud> JoeThomas: you'll also need some kind of window manager
[01:24] <mouseboyx> unicum, There is no way to fix this.
[01:24] <Marvin-TMDR> disappearing trash items?
[01:24] <bad_cables> das88, but that is not the driver's fault
[01:24] <JoeThomas> nickrud:  DMW
[01:24] <Slade^^> realityiswhere: why?
[01:24] <JoeThomas> DWM*
[01:24] <lanzelloth__> it was on an ntfs partition
[01:24] <unicum> so.. i need to reinstall?
[01:24] <das88> thanks cables, I'll check that
[01:24] <lanzelloth__> does it get sent to a different place?
[01:24] <nickrud> JoeThomas: ah, missed that. sorry
[01:25] <Devils-Haven> helo
[01:25] <Slade^^> realityiswhere: can u answer me to fix this problem?
[01:25] <Marvin-TMDR> unic- if you delete it, you should be ready for that...
[01:25] <JoeThomas> nickrud: it's cool thanks though.
[01:25] <mouseboyx> unicum, So the original, had all icons?
[01:25] <das88> thing is, I"ve tried reconfiguring xserver several times and it doesn't change anything
[01:25] <unicum> i meen.. it did work once.. obviously, else i wouldn't know how it worked
[01:25] <unicum> yes
[01:25] <Slade^^> realityiswhere: if u know how to fix
[01:25] <unicum> all icons of the actual desktop
[01:25] <das88> would the bios issue fix that too?
[01:25] <lanzelloth__> damn..
[01:25] <realityiswhere> Slade^^: how are you attempting to install it? from the Ubuntu Gutsy repository, or from the Wine repository, or compiling it?
[01:25] <mouseboyx> I think this feature does not exist, because I cannot do it.
[01:25] <Devils-Haven> can any one help ubuntu noob? deb is not found
[01:25] <unicum> erm... maybe it's because i'm using compiz.. though i dont't think it is
[01:26] <bad_cables> das88, that is what happened to me, once i set my bios to use 8mb... then i could do 1300x768
[01:26] <unicum> i could try kicking out compiz reboot
[01:26] <unicum> turning on compiz again and rebooting again
[01:26] <das88> awesome, I'll be back then. Thanks bad_cables!
[01:26] <bad_cables> das88, before that the option was there to increase from 800 but it just wouldnt do it
[01:26] <das88> hmm...
[01:26] <das88> I don't have the option
[01:26] <phuzion> singlesun, beautiful, thanks a ton
[01:26] <bad_cables> das88, it also varies from distro to distro
[01:26] <Slade^^> realityiswhere: I want to instal from add/remove Applications
[01:27] <das88> cables, do you have any idea how I would look up my horizontal refresh rate?
[01:27] <Dr_willis> Devils-Haven, deb is not a command. its the extension for the packages the apt-get system uses.
[01:27] <realityiswhere> Slade^^: Maybe try loading the official Wine repository into Ubuntu and installing from Synaptic in that way?
[01:27] <Slade^^> realityiswhere: u know what is the problem.. ? cause u know PLEASE tell me
[01:28] <singlesun> phuzion, no problem man ;) anytime
[01:28] <das88> I've got an averatec laptop and they don't give me any useful information about hardware...
[01:28] <Devils-Haven> rying to install beryl per tutorial and i can't

[01:29] <wastrel> lshw also
[01:29] <Jangari> apt-get on my machine seems to be stuck behind a firewall, but synaptic seems fine with the network proxy, anyone know how to force apt-get to use a particular proxy?
[01:29] <Devils-Haven> i a mtrying to install mac4lin
[01:29] <das88> Dr_willis: I think the refresh is 60, yeah, but I'm looking for the horizontal sync
[01:30] <wastrel> Jangari: export http_proxy="<your proxy>"
[01:30] <Jangari> thanks wastrel
[01:30] <wastrel> <your proxy> being   http://server:port
[01:30] <Slade^^> realityiswhere: waitingggg........ :)
[01:31] <das88> lspci doesnt seem to have any monitor info in it
[01:31] <wastrel> assuming it's http.  you can do ftp_proxy too
[01:31] <Jangari> wastrel: how about setting the port?
[01:31] <Jangari> oh, gotcha, thanks
[01:32] <Devils-Haven> how do i know if i have compiz or compiz-fusion?

[01:33] <bad_cables> i need help with rt61
[01:33] <singlesun> what is messed up is that ... i was just about to help you setup Compiz... and now ubuntu isnt opening my own "advanced settings"... the functions still work... like cube and wavvy windows... etc...
[01:33] <singlesun> anyone have any clues as to why my "advanced settings" might be failing
[01:34] <Dr_willis> singlesun,  theres some issues with how the setting files are saved with kde i recall.   I had to enable the 'flat file settings' i think.
[01:34] <bad_cables> is anyone in here a wireless expert?
[01:34] <Dr_willis> singlesun,  also ive seen under gnome where the settings just stop 'changing' from the ccsm tool.
[01:34] <bad_cables> it seems that WPA doesnt work with my wireless driver
[01:35] <Dr_willis> singlesun,  i check/uncheck and they just dont get applied. Had to restart X for them to get going again
[01:35] <singlesun> Dr_willis, well im running Gnome... and the weird thing was... it worked the other day
[01:35] <Dr_willis> singlesun,   seen similer issues.. lets just say that compiz is still a bit of a work in progress. :P
[01:35] <singlesun> Dr_willis, so now i cant edit my settings.? ... what?
[01:36] <singlesun> Dr_willis, lol... this isnt good... cuz i was just about to change my settings... lol
[01:36] <Shuggle> I'm having a problem using ndiswrapper for my wireless driver. I have the driver that came with windows. Everything works like it is supposed to until I modprobe ndiswrapper. The wireless interface just doesnt show up
[01:37] <adub_> doe anyone have any experience with amule
[01:37] <bad_cables> adub_ yeah... it's great
[01:37] <adub_> im having trouble getting the server.met file to download
[01:37] <adub_> bad_cables can you tell me which server.met server you are using
[01:37] <adub_> i have never had any trouble with this program
[01:37] <bad_cables> adub_ i havent installed it in a long time

[01:39] <Devils-Haven> any one installed mac4lin?
[01:39] <Kuroachia> Is it possible for my gdesklets to startup when I start up ubuntu?
[01:39] <bad_cables> adub: it may be that they are down somehow?>
[01:39] <adub> bad_cables i dont know
[01:39] <adub> does anyone have a server that has a good server.met file
[01:40] <singlesun>  as much as i dont want to do it... is there anyway to return ubuntu back to its factory settings, when it was first installed?
[01:40] <martin_> where now??
[01:41] <bruenig> singlesun, reinstall it
[01:41] <martin_> i cant without your help
[01:41] <martin_> pls help me
[01:41] <singlesun> bruenig, besides reinstalling... lol
[01:41] <bruenig> singlesun, no
[01:41] <nickrud> singlesun: what do you mean, factory settings?
[01:41] <realityiswhere> martin_: did you follow both of the steps to add the key and update your repository?
[01:41] <Dr_willis> singlesun,  what settings are you refering to? the USERS settings? or various  service, or other settings.
[01:41] <adub> bad_cables only thing i know to do is uninstall amule and reinstall
[01:42] <hdevalence> is there a way to virtualize windows in ubuntu without anyone noticing?
[01:42] <singlesun> nickrud, in other words, i have some junk files where they shouldnt be for some reason or other.... compiz advanced settings will not open... and its acting kinda buggy
[01:42] <spithra> so if i have gnome and kde installed, how do i make a 1 default
[01:42] <singlesun> Dr_willis, nickrud, see above ^^
[01:42] <bad_cables> adub, sorry but i dont have it up or i would get you a server
[01:43] <gcleric> hdevalence: What are you trying to do?
[01:43] <boinker> does anyone know how to enable the touch slider and the 4 buttons on a wacom tablet in gutsy?
[01:43] <singlesun> Dr_willis, nickrud, bruenig, its all been acting fine up until today... then started being glitchy
[01:43] <nickrud> singlesun: you can clear all of compiz (I think) with   gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/compiz , that'll take care of any custom settings that may be bad
[01:43] <martin_> realityiswhere: can u tell me where u from cause i cant undersand wery well ??
[01:43] <boinker> i have the intuos3 version any help please
[01:43] <martin_> realityiswhere: and what is repository???
[01:43] <hdevalence> gcleric: have a linux-based system (headless) that runs a virtual windows box
[01:43] <realityiswhere> martin_: what is your first language?
[01:43] <hdevalence> but to the user it looks like it's just running windows
[01:43] <xazo> hello
[01:44] <martin_> realityiswhere: macedonian
[01:44] <martin_> realityiswhere: are u american?
[01:44] <realityiswhere> martin_: no
[01:44] <bad_cables> anyone have experience with the rt61 driver?
[01:44] <shaark> how can I tell which window manager i'm currently running?
[01:44] <singlesun> nickrud, i just ran that...still can not access advanced settings :(
[01:44] <FactTech> Question: I seem to have an instance of Firefox running that may be hung. I know how to ID and kill a process using 'ps' and 'kill', but is there any way to bring a process to the foreground or into a window? Like what you would find in Windows, with a "bring to front" option on the Task Manager.
[01:44] <gcleric> hdevalence:  Are you trying to setup a virtual Terminal Server or RDP to XP?
[01:44] <martin_> realityiswhere: then.... from ? if u want telle me where u from?
[01:44] <singlesun> singlesun, however it did take away my 4 bars, and my cube.. and all the other compiz effects... lol
[01:45] <martin_> realityiswhere: tell*
[01:45] <singlesun> nickrud, my bad... look above real quick,
[01:45] <nickrud> singlesun: then I'd try alt-f2  metacity --replace  , then repeat the one above, and sudo apt-get install --reinstall compizconfig-settings-manager
[01:45] <zoobox> how do I do to create a deb package?
[01:45] <realityiswhere> martin_: go to the private chat window
[01:45] <buzz4rd> \join #asterix
[01:46] <hdevalence> gcleric: not sure. I want it to be like: hardware->linux->windows->user
[01:46] <hdevalence> ick, sorry, my ethernet is sketchy
[01:47] <zoobox> I have compiled the program and it is in its own directory with usr/local/bin/ and usr/local/share/ subdirectories, but how to create a .deb from it?
[01:47] <nickrud> singlesun: saw it :)
[01:47] <gcleric> hdevalence:  Then yes....
[01:47] <Shuggle> can anyone help me with ndiswrapper?
[01:47] <Talon> Ok, so i configured Compiz but the cube doesnt work, any sugestions ?
[01:47] <singlesun> nickrud, umm... im not sure about all that...
[01:48] <singlesun> Talon, hit alt control ... hold left mouse wheel and move mouse
[01:48] <singlesun> Talon, did anything happen?
[01:48] <nickrud> singlesun: it's returning to metacity and reinstalling ccsm . Not a panacea , but often helps
[01:48] <hdevalence> gcleric: I want it to have the user interact with windows as if the computer was just running windows but really it's running Linux underneath
[01:48] <Talon> uhhh, left mouse wheel mate ?
[01:48] <singlesun> Talon, left mouse button
[01:48] <gcleric> hdevalence:  You can setup either a terminal server and have users RDP to it... same is true for XP....but it requires a little hack..
[01:48] <Talon> Ok, just makin sure
[01:48] <singlesun> Talon, alt + ctrl + left mouse button... i think is default for it
[01:49] <hdevalence> Talon: cool
[01:49] <hdevalence> err
[01:49] <insomniac[st]> any firehol gurus here?
[01:49] <gcleric> hdevalence:  without the user knowing what is underneath
[01:49] <hdevalence> gcleric: cool. thanks for the info
[01:49] <Talon> control alt left mouse doesnt work either :/
[01:49] <gcleric> hdevalence:  I do it all the time with VMware.
[01:49] <bad_cables> or qemu
[01:50] <gcleric> hdevalence:  Either the free VMware Server or ESX....
[01:50] <singlesun> Talon, dont worry to much... my compiz just died on me today after running so well for so long.. LOL
[01:50] <bad_cables> anyone know how to get the rt61 to work in 7.70??
[01:50] <LockesRabb> anyone familiar with compiz?
[01:50] <shaark> how do I check which window manager is currently running?
[01:50] <bad_cables> i get 0% on all the radios
[01:50] <hdevalence> gcleric: probably better to just use (k)ubuntu by itself
[01:50] <gcleric> hdevalence:  The key is RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol)
[01:50] <Talon> Singlesun: aint that a bitch :/
[01:51] <singlesun> Talon, yeah... lol... trying to fix it now actually.. lol
[01:51] <Talon> Well if you have any luck, please tell me what ya do !
[01:51] <tehmass> Hey guys :D
[01:51] <gcleric> hdevalence:  There is no need to install Xorg

[01:51] <insomniac[st]> On firehol, I have "server webcache accept" in the conf. anyone know how to make it only accessible from local IPs?
[01:51] <hdevalence> gcleric: ok

[01:52] <tehmass> it is mplayer
[01:52] <Talon> Shaark, none i guess i dont know how to create more then the default mate just installed today
[01:52] <Starnestommy> tehmass: if you downloaded a .deb, I think it's sudo dpkg -i filename
[01:53] <shaark> Talon: well if u have 4 it should show the cube
[01:53] <Talon> Is there any easy way to tell how man i have ?
[01:53] <LockesRabb> yeah
[01:53] <LockesRabb> ctrl alt down
[01:53] <shaark> in the bottom right in ur panel
[01:53] <Talon> many*

[01:56] <tehmass> i want the updated ver. of MPLAYER and im having problems installing it through the .deb
[01:56] <singlesun> donald_, the advanced settings... it would not let me access them anymore
[01:56] <Talon> Shaark, dont know how to do that
[01:57] <singlesun> singlesun, i would select it... and it would not open at all...
[01:57] <Talon> Or do you mean in the ccsm thing to enable them ?
[01:57] <singlesun> donald_, i would select it and it would not let it open at all
[01:57] <phuzion> Anyone here ever compiled StepMania from source?
[01:57] <shaark> Talon: System->Preferences->Advanced Desktop Effects Settings
[01:57] <donald_> singlesun: odd
[01:57] <Carbonflux> sometimes you have to restart compiz
[01:57] <Carbonflux> if you were changing some of the settings
[01:58] <Carbonflux> for example turning on benchmarking
[01:58] <Carbonflux> will sometimes turn off all the effects
[01:58] <regfire> OS=Gutsy -- Anyone had luck getting firestarter to run and STAY running? If so, can you point me to a fix?
[01:58] <singlesun> Carbonflux, i rebooted the computer... is that good enough?
[01:58] <Talon> Shaark, yeah i enabled those
[01:58] <davef> how do i watch real player files in firefox?
[01:58] <Carbonflux> singlesun, did you change your xorg.conf or anything? only one monitor ?
[01:58] <singlesun> Carbonflux, the functions would still work... i just could not access them to edit my settings in the advanced section
[01:58] <donald_> singlesun: do u still have desktop effects?
[01:59] <Carbonflux> singlesun, did you install CCSM ?
[01:59] <singlesun> donald_, i uninstalled the package... and used the reset
[01:59] <Talon> shaark, osnaps it works now, but i only have two screens can you be so kind as to inform mehow to get 4 ?
[01:59] <singlesun> Carbonflux, yes... i had it and it was working great for a long time
[01:59] <jimmygoon> I know firefox3 includes a native gtk theme.... but what if I want a gtk theme that looks like firefox2?
[01:59] <Carbonflux> singlesun, something might have trashed python too
[01:59] <Stargazer> Dr_willis, pm
[01:59] <phuzion> wow, I have been using terminal too much, I just did | grep in a search
[02:00] <singlesun> Carbonflux, well i had just put some python stuff on there.... like IDLE and a few other things, because I was doing some developing with python
[02:00] <Dr_willis> Stargazer,  Hmm? I see no pm's
[02:00] <donald_> Talon: right click on the Workspace Chooser and Preference and select 4 columns
[02:00] <nugz1212> what the heck is going on with the kicking spree?
[02:00] <shaark> Talon: in the bottom right panel in gnome there is the switcher app u can right click and add more workspaces
[02:00] <singlesun> nugz1212, looks like its kicking all unregistered nicks.. lol
[02:00] <nugz1212> yeah
[02:00] <Carbonflux> singlesun, CCSM is written in python, some change might have caused a problem with dependencies
[02:00] <tehmass> How do i access the repos.
[02:00] <Carbonflux> singlesun, I am just guessing of course
[02:00] <das88> bad_cables: thanks a bunch for your memory suggestion! I changed the on-board vga memory from 64 megs to 128 and everything works great now!
[02:00] <LjL> "looks like" based on what? or rather, why is it your concern?
[02:00] <tehmass> Universe repositories
[02:00] <nugz1212> can anyone point me to a good program to DJ on shoutcast servers?
[02:01] <singlesun> Carbonflux, not the d word... LOL... oh hell.. LOL

[02:01] <dburns> anyone here have luck with wireless on the aspire 5100?
[02:01] <Carbonflux> singlesun, did you try reinstalling all of it on top of your python installs ?
[02:01]  * singlesun goes to look for the even elusive and annoying rabbit trail of "dependencies" upon "dependencies" upon "dependencies"... lol
[02:02] <dburns> followed this word for word http://quilombo.wordpress.com/2008/01/09/atheros-ar5006eg-in-ubuntu-710-gutsy-gibbon/
[02:02] <dburns> no such luck
[02:02] <singlesun> Carbonflux, yes i did do a reinstall on top of the python.... but i did not reboot in between the removal and reinstall
[02:02] <Carbonflux> singlesun, also, switching to basic effects and back to custom again will reset all your defaults, or should
[02:03] <KelebekSohbet585> hello
[02:03] <singlesun> Carbonflux, problem is... i can reinstall the advanced settings... and then go to click on the "advanced desktop effects" tab.... and it will not open
[02:03] <Carbonflux> singlesun, turning effects on and off again in the appearance dialog should restart it of course, but a reboot is always a good idea imo
[02:03] <KelebekSohbet585> hello

[02:06] <nemilar> HUH
[02:06]  * Carbonflux claps politely
[02:06] <Talon> One last thing, in the compiz what option do i enable have the window infocus 'poped' out farther then a window in the back, like a pop up book
[02:06] <Jangari> anyone knwo if sox can concatenate more than 32 input files at once?

[02:07] <nemilar> xMS_user: haha awesome for you
[02:07] <Talon> That seems to only fade the windows, mabey i have an old version
[02:07] <nemilar> xMS_user: bet that will teach you to back-up though
[02:07] <Carbonflux> Talon, ah, you mean something else sorry
[02:07] <tehmass> were is that?
[02:07] <Carbonflux> Talon, you are talking about some 3D effect?
[02:07] <xMS_user> nemilar: hello?! dude i will back up my back ups!
[02:07] <Talon> Yes
[02:07] <nugz1212> has anyone tried the new ubuntu-ultimate?
[02:07] <tehmass> donald_:  were can i get that?
[02:07] <nemilar> lol, backing up is vital
[02:07] <Talon> were the window in focus is actualy 'above' the desktop when in the cube mode
[02:07] <singlesun> Carbonflux, its saying that it also wants to install python-compizconfig which is a package that can not be authenticated... i dont remember getting this message when installing the first time
[02:07] <Carbonflux> Talon, I have never seen that one unless you mean the 3D windows plug-in, but that only works when your rotating the cube
[02:08] <phuzion> Ok, I have this small problem with Compiz.  I have the desktop cube running fine, but the tray at the bottom that shows open programs doesn't update until I have the selected face full screened, it stays the same as what I had open on the first face
[02:08] <Talon> Carbon, i will try and find an example its hard for me to explain hehe
[02:08] <Carbonflux> singlesun, that sounds ok, it might just be unsupported, if its comming from a Ubuntu repo I doubt its malwarz
[02:08] <adub> does anyone here use amule
[02:08] <xMS_user> dude, bk is like brushing your teeth, changing your under wears and Not flirting with your girl friend's ssiter
[02:08] <singlesun> Carbonflux, reinstalled regardless of that warning... still fails to run from the "advanced settings"
[02:08] <phuzion> !anyone
[02:09] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[02:09] <Carbonflux> Talon, sounds nice, I would be interested in it myself
[02:09] <phuzion> !anyone | adub
[02:09] <ubotu> adub: please see above
[02:09] <q_a_z_steve> Talon, quick question, any change you know how to get dapper to show my disk usage by folder/file?
[02:09] <Carbonflux> singlesun, does it say anything when you type ccsm on the command line ?
[02:09] <donald_> tehmass: www.medibuntu.org
[02:09] <singlesun> Carbonflux, one sec, checking
[02:09] <singlesun> Carbonflux, yes.. i will send to you in PM
[02:10] <Talon> Sorry Steve, i only installed linux for the first time today , im to new at it to know that :D
[02:10] <singlesun> Carbonflux, i just sent to you in PM the output from ccsm
[02:10] <Carbonflux> singlesun, ya looks like a version mismatch with libxslt.so.1
[02:10] <q_a_z_steve> Talon, ah, haha
[02:10] <xMS_user> talon didn't i see you last week asking the same question? how is it that you JUST installed now?
[02:11] <Talon> Different Talon i guess
[02:11] <singlesun> Carbonflux, the solution for this is? lol
[02:11] <Talon> Never had the balls enough to install it before today, but im glad i did
[02:11] <Carbonflux> singlesun, it might be that lib got overwritten when you installed something new
[02:11]  * xMS_user starts laughing
[02:11] <xMS_user> talon i am just messing with you
[02:11] <Talon> :P
[02:11] <RequinB4> >.> That's not nice xMS_user
[02:11] <Talon> I sure to like it thoe !
[02:11] <xMS_user> ext2 vs ext3? tell me the truth guys
[02:11] <singlesun> Carbonflux, hmmm, how to revert to the old lib file... or overwrite the existing?
[02:12] <RequinB4> Talon, welcome to ubuntu
[02:12] <Talon> Thankyou :)
[02:12] <Dr_willis> xMS_user,  i dont see mucn need to use ext2 these days
[02:12] <andresmujica> ext3 is the path
[02:12] <xMS_user> RequinB4: dude i am happy as hell, wait..that doe snot sound right
[02:12] <Carbonflux> singlesun, well, if it was me I would open the Synaptic package manager and look around for libxslt, I think its a XML parser for python
[02:12] <andresmujica> ext2 is faster but could be relatively dangerous
[02:12] <xMS_user> thank you Dr_willis
[02:12] <Talon> Carbon: did you get my pm ?
[02:12] <donald_> Carbonflux: Ubuntu won't "overwrite" it's own files unless a user does some weird ./install scripts of make install something
[02:12] <Carbonflux> singlesun, you might be able to revert
[02:12] <RequinB4> what would normally be in /dev/sda3
[02:12] <Dr_willis> ive not seen many benchmaks that show ext2 being that much faster these days.,
[02:12] <xMS_user> lol, well i am not putting my backups there then! ext3 it is
[02:12] <Carbonflux> donald_, its giving him a ImportError: /usr/lib/libxslt.so.1: undefined symbol: xmlNewDocPI when he tries to run ccsm
[02:13] <Carbonflux> that looks like a version mismatch to me
[02:13] <apranax> TÜRK WARMI LAN BURDA
[02:13] <apranax> :D
[02:13] <Carbonflux> Talon, I did not
[02:13] <Talon> hmm, then heres the link right here http://compiz.org/Image:3DPlugin.jpg
[02:13] <Talon> thats the effect i am trying to find
[02:13] <Carbonflux> ah thanks :)
[02:13] <donald_> Carbonflux: has he installed something without using proper deb packages? or possible disk corruption?
[02:13] <foibles> donald_, thanks
[02:13] <Carbonflux> donald_, that is my guess, he said he install some stuff to support python dev
[02:14] <Carbonflux> singlesun, what python stuff did you install ?
[02:14] <apranax> Talon fuck you
[02:14] <apranax> :A
[02:14] <andresmujica> probably is negectible today. but at the inner level ext2 is faster it doesnñ t have the journal overhead
[02:14] <Talon> wth
[02:14] <donald_> Carbonflux: install using deb packages?
[02:14] <Talon> wtf did i do to you ?
[02:14] <singlesun> Carbonflux, IDLE, and i think it wanted some updates for python.. etc.. and then did a small amount of messing around with it
[02:15] <q_a_z_steve> !baobab
[02:15] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about baobab - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[02:15] <Carbonflux> Talon, you need to install the 3D windows plugin, read this: http://forum.compiz-fusion.org/showthread.php?t=5303
[02:15] <xMS_user> talon promise me something, no matter how hard it might get, stay open source. even if you leave ubuntu (but you sound like a reasonable guy) DO NOT go back to legacy
[02:15] <Talon> Thankyou Carbon
[02:15] <tritium> Talon: I removed him for that.  Sorry he said that to you.
[02:15] <Carbonflux> donald_, its singlesun that is having the problem
[02:15] <Talon> I wont go to legacy, cause i dont know what legacy is :P
[02:16] <xMS_user> tritium: y he'd say that
[02:16] <Carbonflux> is IDLE a deb package ?
[02:16] <q_a_z_steve> Talon, sudo apt-get install baobab      if you ever want to do that. Found it in the forums.
[02:16] <Talon> im the type of guy that if it aint broke i aint gonna fix it and so far Ubuntu aint broke hehe
[02:16] <tritium> xMS_user: I have no idea
[02:16] <xMS_user> Talon: bill gates and steve jobs are legacy
[02:16] <singlesun> Carbonflux, i just went "sudo apt-get install IDLE"
[02:16] <Talon> Ohh ok, well im using Windows XP on my desktop does that count as high treason ?
[02:16] <Ububegin> lets say i type "export AXISCPP_HOME=/usr/../../" how do i check whether it is actually set or not
[02:16] <Carbonflux> singlesun, well, the error is the result of ccsm expecting a different version of libxslt
[02:16] <oich> I accidentally ran python setup.py install on some python module, did I just screw up dpkg?
[02:17] <xMS_user> i made a bash file that does "sudo apt-get install $1" cuz i am lazy as hell
[02:17] <tehmass> im having a error with mplayer..   iterrupted signal 6 module
[02:17] <Carbonflux> singlesun, I would take a look in Synaptic package manager and see what you can find for that lib
[02:17] <Carbonflux> singlesun, maybe you can revert, but that might break something else
[02:17] <tehmass> trying to play a divx file. Any other method you guys suggest than with mplayer ?
[02:17] <singlesun> Carbonflux, well i found libxslt1.1 in the synaptic
[02:17] <Talon> Apranax, why did you say fuck you to me what did i do this time :)
[02:18] <Carbonflux> singlesun, does it show as being installed ?
[02:18] <singlesun> Carbonflux, it says i have it installed... yes
[02:18] <xMS_user> Talon: no way! we still need windows on earth. but make the transition. i have a small pc with xp that manages my media. (damn media player 11 does not run in wine)
[02:18] <Carbonflux> singlesun, you could try "reinstall" but again, it might break something
[02:18] <Carbonflux> singlesun, does IDLE work etc ?
[02:18] <singlesun> Carbonflux, lol well its already... broken.. so why not... lol
[02:18] <fotoflo> hey, ive never done ssh tunneling before... i heard it can be done to access a remote samba service?
[02:18] <xMS_user> apranax is not here
[02:18] <Talon> The only reason i use Windows XP is to code my stuff and to play SWG really, i could live without it
[02:18] <tehmass> Whats a good way to go about playing divx codec movies?
[02:18] <xMS_user> you heard talon, he left
[02:18] <tritium> Talon: don't repeat the foul language, please.
[02:18] <singlesun> Carbonflux, yeah idle still works..
[02:18] <Talon> XMS: Do you know if Xfire works in Wine ?
[02:18] <Talon> Tritium : sorry mate
[02:18] <tritium> xMS_user: he didn't just leave.  I removed him.
[02:19] <donald_> tehmass: u have not looked at medibuntu?
[02:19] <xMS_user> tritium: lol! you right.
[02:19] <tehmass> I did not find it
[02:19] <fotoflo> anyone know anything about using ssh tunneling to access remote samba devices?
[02:19]  * xMS_user thinks to himself that he'd better not piss off any channel admins
[02:19] <Talon> brb
[02:19] <singlesun> Carbonflux, this libxslt 1.1 is also a package that can not be authenticated
[02:19] <xMS_user> talon what do you code?
[02:19] <Carbonflux> singlesun, if you look at the error basicly what is happening is that ccsm is using libxslt to load a XML file containing the compiz settings, its called a function that does not exist in that lib in terms of the version you have installed
[02:20] <Talon> xms: C++
[02:20] <whyshy> can compiz run on a virtual linux (in virtualbox), because for me iit doesn´t work. Is it maybe cause of the "virtual-graphic-device"
[02:20] <Talon> You wont like what i code :P but i make hacks for games :/
[02:20] <Carbonflux> singlesun, that is a bit weird
[02:20] <andresmujica> no, virtualization doesn't have support for 3D
[02:20] <singlesun> Carbonflux, im thinking about reinstalling... LOL
[02:20] <donald_> whyshy: compiz wont run in VM
[02:21] <somerville32> Is there a gui that allows for easy management of ip aliases?
[02:21] <Carbonflux> singlesun, ya, something does seem broken, that should be a supported lib
[02:21] <tehmass> what architure should i choose ?a/ b/ f/ h/ k/ libd/ m/ x/
[02:21] <tehmass> for  medibuntu in kubuntu
[02:21] <singlesun> Carbonflux, :O this is the story of my life... lol.. i just finished reinstalling everything on my wife's pc today... now mine... lol
[02:21] <tehmass> nvm
[02:22] <Carbonflux> singlesun, ya on this machine it shows that lib as being part of the supported stuff
[02:22] <whyshy>  ok thank you @ donald_ and andresmujica!!!!!!!
[02:22] <Carbonflux> singlesun, so something is messed up on your machine, you could try a sudo apt-get clean maybe
[02:22] <blick> I want to make a shell script that defines a useful function, and works either stand-alone or as a "library" (source filename.sh). Is there a good way to do this?
[02:22] <singlesun> Carbonflux, i will try that
[02:22] <Carbonflux> singlesun, it seems like your RSA keys might be mess up or something
[02:23] <donald_> tehmass: can u read the FAQ on medibuntu. about adding it to your /etc/apt/sources.list file?
[02:23] <Carbonflux> singlesun, after the clean do a sudo apt-get update also
[02:23] <xMS_user> c++ and you use xp? now that is just plain silly
[02:23] <thebigham> How do i get intel x3100 graphic working with compiz???
[02:23] <donald_> thebigham: u need to add SKIP_CHECKS=yes to some file
[02:23] <Carbonflux> with VS2005 C++ is fully support in XP
[02:24] <Carbonflux> supported
[02:24] <Talon> xms: im used to it i guess
[02:24] <singlesun> Carbonflux, alright i did both of those
[02:24] <Carbonflux> its not as good as gcc or something
[02:24] <xMS_user> Talon: i had a php script that  did some db maintenence, on xp it would take about 5 - 7 minutes. on the same machine, debian ran it all in less than 1 minutes
[02:24] <singlesun> Carbonflux, still not working... the verdict is... reboot... LOL
[02:24] <xMS_user> minute* singular
[02:25] <singlesun> Carbonflux, and reinstall
[02:25] <Carbonflux> singlesun, ya, something is messed up fairly bad, I am not sure you have to reinstall tho, you might try googling some of this first
[02:25] <Carbonflux> singlesun, try the ImportError: line in google for example
[02:25] <Talon> hmm, brb xms having trouble with this 3d window download install stuff
[02:25] <Carbonflux> singlesun, you can't be the first person to have this problem
[02:25] <singlesun> Carbonflux, oh yes i can... that is usually the case.. lol
[02:25] <Carbonflux> lol
[02:26] <Carbonflux> guess thats why its the "bleeding" edge
[02:26] <Carbonflux> I just don't know anything about authentication problems with apt
[02:26] <Carbonflux> there might be a easy fix
[02:26] <xMS_user> does the cube thingy even work in gutsy?
[02:26] <singlesun> bleeding is usually the case... LOL
[02:27] <nemilar> Someone having gpg key errors with apt?
[02:27] <Carbonflux> I have gotten the desktop cube working fine, i showed it to my girl friend, she pretended to be impressed in a polite way and then I turned it off
[02:27] <nemilar> haha
[02:28] <donald_> xMS_user: Compiz? works here
[02:28] <RequinB4> that's funny
[02:28] <nemilar> compiz works great
[02:28] <thebigham> How do i install drivers for intel x3100 so compiz will work?
[02:28] <Carbonflux> ya, seriously, it works fine here too
[02:28] <mazev> compiz looks great and ups my productivity
[02:28] <whyshy> ehem sorry, but another stupid question: Is Lina a fake or will it ever be released! i mean, it was already released but not compiled! and because i doen´t know how to compile Lina, i just want to know if it would work ?!
[02:28] <nemilar> thebigham: your video isn't working properly?
[02:28] <singlesun> Carbonflux, see mine was working all this time... i just couldnt edit it today... LOL...
[02:28] <donald_> thebigham: u need to add SKIP_CHECKS=yes to some file
[02:29] <RequinB4> compiz-fusion is good even just for organizational puposes
[02:29] <Talon> xms: Once i finish installing this 3d windows and changing options do i have to do something to get them to apply ? :)
[02:29] <thebigham> donald_, how do i do that?
[02:29] <nemilar> The cube, and expo, and all that compiz stuff is productive... the "minimize in a blaze of fire" is just eye-candy
[02:29] <Carbonflux> singlesun, well, I think you might be able to ignore the authentication issues for a time and just fix the compiz problem, there might be a way to refresh the keys or something
[02:30] <thebigham> there was a guy just couple hours ago who helped me to get it working, but i was using the wrong hard drive, now i have do every over again.
[02:30] <Carbonflux> I like compiz
[02:30] <Carbonflux> I use a lot of it, the window rules and stuff
[02:30] <thebigham> He gave me a link with simple steps to do win the teminal
[02:30] <donald_> thebigham: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=587045
[02:30] <Carbonflux> I have a ton of rules set up now
[02:30] <Talon> Nemilar: I cant find the option, how do i let my windows go down in a blaze of glory
[02:30] <xMS_user> Talon:  ask donald_, nemilar, Mazus an RequinB4 they use it
[02:30] <Carbonflux> the only thing I don't normally use is the desktop cube
[02:31] <whyshy> Is Lina a fake?
[02:31] <nemilar> Talon: you have to install the extras, h/o I'll find the package for you
[02:31] <singlesun> Carbonflux, im gonna give this one a break for tonight... lol... i dont feel like pushing much farther with this tonight.. its been a long day... now i need to figure out what linux distro i will put on my old xp driven laptop... that now have a fan out in it that i refuse to replace... lol
[02:31] <Talon> Ahh, alwyas with the extras, thanks mate
[02:31] <Carbonflux> singlesun, heh, I understand exactly what you mean, better not to push anyway, you might get sucked into a black hole of reinstalling
[02:32] <EmmerP>  anybody get suspend to ram working in Feisty? It does suspend, but does not resume :S
[02:32] <nemilar> Talon: compiz-fusion-plugins-extra and compizconfig-settings-manager
[02:32] <Carbonflux> singlesun, one fun thing that can happen is having problems with the reinstall, a bad disc, etc
[02:32] <nemilar> Talon: there's literally more options in there than I wish to count
[02:32] <donald_> EmmerP: suspend is black magic
[02:32] <nemilar> donald_: not on windows, it isn't
[02:32] <singlesun> Carbonflux, well ive reintalled on this pc many times over... LOL...
[02:32] <Talon> Nemilar: thats a good thing thoe :) options = happy
[02:32] <whyshy> Lina?
[02:33] <Mazus> (18:31:14) (xMS_user) Talon: ask donald_, nemilar, Mazus an RequinB4 they use it<-- what?
[02:33] <thebigham> donald_, thanks alot it worked
[02:33] <Ububegin> hoe to use the find command in ubuntu
[02:33] <donald_> nemilar: not all ACPI implementations are the same
[02:33] <ader10>  I want a popup notification displaying mpc's output. Right now I use "mpc|zenity --text-info" but I'd like something that kind of scales the window to fit the text properly. Is there a method?
[02:33] <Ububegin> i mean use the find command in VIM, sorry
[02:33] <Carbonflux> singlesun, if ubuntu does not work on it I have had a lot of luck on older machines with fedora for some odd reason, but 7.10 Ubuntu has been quite good on old machines, stripped down of course
[02:33] <nemilar> Talon: at some point you're gonna wind up mapping your mouse3 button to something, and your scroll wheel is going to stop working... just keep that in mind when you're wondering why you can't scroll in firefox, and then go back and unmap mouse3 ;)
[02:33] <nemilar> Talon: _everyone_ I know has done that
[02:33] <whyshy> Li..?
[02:34] <whyshy> L?
[02:34] <Talon> Nem: i have one of those mouse pad things wit hthe scroll wheel on the side, i dont even think i can map it to anything elese
[02:34] <whyshy> :-(
[02:34] <whyshy> ;-)
[02:34] <singlesun> Carbonflux, i would like to run something that is as stripped down as possible.. .but will still support its PCMCIA wireless card...
[02:35] <singlesun> Carbonflux, need something light light weight, cuz i cant have it overheating due to fan being out... lol
[02:35] <nemilar> Talon: you can map any button on your mouse to pretty much anything you want...might take some doing though
[02:35] <xMS_user> Mazus: compiz
[02:35] <Talon> true true, ill make sure i avoid that thoe
[02:35] <EADG> singlesun: Damm Small Linux (DSL) or Puppy linux might be something you'de want to look at.
[02:36] <dduong> Ububegin: when you are not in insert mode, press / and type whatever you are looking for in front.  For example.  /test
[02:36] <Talon> I personaly enjoy scrolling in firefox so thats high on the list to avoid
[02:36] <singlesun> EADG, this gives full support for pcmcia wireless cards?
[02:36] <EmmerP> donald_: ok...that's it? hmmm
[02:37] <xMS_user> format c: /q in linux?
[02:37] <EADG> singlesun: a 50Mb d/l burn & reboot would tell you for sure. I don't use pcmcia on my lappy ;/
[02:38] <Talon> Hey Nemilar how to i apply settings with this 3d windows, because when i change its options nothing happens its just the same :/
[02:38] <Ububegin> dduong: how do i cont'd gg to next time.... i tried pressing <ENTER>..dun think it is correct one
[02:38] <Carbonflux> singlesun, yikes ;)
[02:38] <singlesun> EADG, 50meg... lol.. sure is d small...
[02:38] <xMS_user> guys how do i format my sdc4 in ext3?
[02:38] <singlesun> Carbonflux, whats up with the yikes?
[02:38] <Ububegin> dduong: how do i cont'd gg to next ITEM.... i tried pressing <ENTER>..dun think it is correct one
[02:38] <xMS_user> gparted is acting retarted
[02:38] <Carbonflux> singlesun, just thinking about the fanless computer :)
[02:38] <donald_> EmmerP: your mileage varies. u have to Google and narrow down to your specs
[02:39] <Jewfro-Macabbi> xMS_user, you are looking for the fdisk command?
[02:39] <EADG> singlesun: hehe, ya, it is. It has a gui, fluxbox iirc.
[02:39] <EmmerP> donald_: yeah...that's what I first tried without luck :)
[02:39] <dduong> Ububegin:  press the letter n
[02:39] <xMS_user> i dunno. let me man it and see
[02:39] <xMS_user> Jewfro-Macabbi: let me man it and see
[02:39] <Carbonflux> singlesun, he's right imo, DSL is a good pick
[02:39] <Jewfro-Macabbi> xMS_user, may the force be with you...
[02:40] <singlesun> Carbonflux, it rotates very slowly... its been running XP and was designed for XP... but its just I really dont feel like spending the money to fix the fan... the fans are like 90 dollars and hard to get ahold of, company was KDS computers that went out of business
[02:40] <Ububegin> dduong: sweet .......dude... tks
[02:40] <Wiredtape_Away> anyone know if you can use ddr2 (675mhz) 2x512mb and ddr2 (800mhz) 2x1gb together?
[02:40] <Carbonflux> singlesun, I have seen people do some really dirty fan hacks that seem to work ok, you might be able to adapt a fan from a old MB case or PSU maybe ?
[02:40] <donald_> EmmerP: also, there are various reasons for not resuming. u need to determine what it is. some have no backlight or DPMS issues. some can be fixed by switching to console and back
[02:41] <dduong> Ububegin:  not a problem my friend :)
[02:41] <spdf> Wiredtape_Away, the 800mhz willl get stepped down to 675
[02:41] <Jewfro-Macabbi> Wiredtape_Away, It will run both at the slower rate
[02:41] <singlesun> Carbonflux, but this is my luck... lol... i am running 32 bit ubuntu on my desktop even though it is a dual core 64 bit amd 4400+, 2 gig ram, nvida geforce 8500gt, 320gig hd.... the 64 bit ubuntu i had alot of issues with
[02:41] <EmmerP> donald_: thx, will try some more
[02:41] <Mazus> (18:36:11) (xMS_user) Mazus: compiz <-- i dont run compiz
[02:41] <Wiredtape_Away> Jewfro-Macabbi, but will be stable?
[02:42] <Jewfro-Macabbi> Wiredtape_Away, maybe, maybe not - it's generally not a good idea
[02:42] <Carbonflux> singlesun, I am running 64bit on the same cpu, amd 4400 X2
[02:42] <Wiredtape_Away> Jewfro-Macabbi, k , thx
[02:42] <Carbonflux> singlesun, only difference is I have a geforce 8600 and no doubt the MB is different
[02:42] <singlesun> Carbonflux, that is definently grunge, but you would have to see how the people built this fan, its ridiculous... fan is screwed up shape and size... and used proprietary components... definently wasnt meant to last
[02:42] <xMS_user> sry Mazus
[02:43] <Carbonflux> singlesun, ya, fans are a pain, you see that a lot with gcards too
[02:43] <xMS_user> Jewfro-Macabbi: nope fdisk does not seem to be what i need
[02:43] <nemilar> Any idea how to access SMART features on a SATA drive connected via USB?
[02:43] <singlesun> Carbonflux, this is the 8500gt with 512 meg ram on it... works decent
[02:43] <Talon> Nemilar, did you get my question mate ?
[02:43] <todd_> is there a way to mount the network:// uri on the filesystem?
[02:43] <nemilar> Talon: no, what's up?
[02:43] <Talon> Hey Nemilar how to i apply settings with this 3d windows, because when i change its options nothing happens its just the same :/
[02:43] <Talon> thats what me said :)
[02:43] <Carbonflux> singlesun, well, that box should run 64bit np, I have a fairly good install on mine
[02:43] <Jewfro-Macabbi> xMS_user, not familiar with any other good partition tools offhand...
[02:43]  * Cpudan80 Hopes this works
[02:43] <adelie43> will network monitor work with wireless cards using ndiswrapper drivers?
[02:44] <nemilar> Talon: you've got compiz running already?
[02:44] <donald_> adelie43: yes
[02:44] <Talon> yup
[02:44] <Carbonflux> singlesun, the only real issue I had was with the flash plugin
[02:44] <singlesun> Carbonflux, i had backtrack2 running on the laptop last night, but it was running hot.... ... i also do have the 64 bit ubuntu on boot disk... problem was getting flash and java to work.. etc
[02:44] <Talon> workin fine too, i see the 3d windows and all but none of my setting changes show up
[02:44] <Carbonflux> singlesun, you just have to make sure you have the linux32 stuff installed
[02:44] <adelie43> donald_: it isn't showing up
[02:44] <Carbonflux> singlesun, but ya, you have to do a bunch of stuff by hand
[02:44] <nemilar> Talon: try prefs - appearances - visual effects - custom
[02:45] <donald_> singlesun: too much horsepower? install 32bit Gutsy in VirtualBox for java n flash
[02:45] <adelie43> donald_: it also doesn't show up in network tools, only iwconfig
[02:45] <xMS_user> i don't need to partion i need to format (sry if i sound like an idiot but they seem to be 2 diffrent things in windows)
[02:45] <singlesun> Carbonflux, donald_ one sec, phone
[02:45] <tom__> Hi, could somebody please help me with my USB drive?
[02:45] <donald_> adelie43: it should.
[02:45] <nemilar> !ask | tom__
[02:45] <ubotu> tom__: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[02:45] <JohnRobert> what version of Ubuntu should I use for a core 2 duo system? Does the standard kernel have SMP support?
[02:45] <Ex-Cyber> I just printed a 10-page PDF from evince; 6 pages printed, and then it just stopped; the "Document print status" window just says "stopped" for its status, and neither the printer itself nor anything else seems to be indicating an error... what's going on?
[02:45] <Talon> Nem: now im confused sorry were do i go :/
[02:45] <rsk> JohnRobert: yep
[02:45] <Carbonflux> I am fairly happy with 7.10 in 64bit
[02:45] <adelie43> donald_: can you be using wired and wireless at the same time with the same router?
[02:45] <JohnRobert> cool ta
[02:46] <todd_> is there a way to mount the network:// uri as a /media entry on the filesystem?
[02:46] <nemilar> Talon: the Appearances control panel, visual effects tab
[02:46] <tom__> Hello?
[02:46] <Carbonflux> it worked a lot better then I expected
[02:46] <nemilar> Talon: enable Custom
[02:46] <nemilar> !ask > tom__
[02:46] <xMS_user> how do i format a partition?
[02:46] <donald_> adelie43: it chooses one only
[02:46] <nemilar> xMS_user: use gparted
[02:46] <xMS_user> nemilar: it keeps crashing
[02:46] <nemilar> xMS_user: well that stinks....you comfortable with the command line?
[02:46] <Siph0n> hey every website and tutorial i read says to install windows first, than ubuntu..... but if i already have ubuntu (gutsy) installed, is it possible to install windows without messing up ubuntu?
[02:46] <tom__> My drive shows up almost nowhere, and the light that indicated that it should be plugged in is not there
[02:46] <Talon> Well yeah ive been messin in that all day Nem, funny thing is none of my setting changes for the #d windows plugin work
[02:46] <Talon> 3d*
[02:46] <adelie43> donald_: if I tried dhclient for the device, would it fail? said 'Network Down'
[02:47] <donald_> Siph0n: yes
[02:47] <singlesun> Carbonflux, back... but yeah i tried all that, and I screwed it up.. either i would get java or flash working... never both of them... lol
[02:47] <Siph0n> donald_, know of a tutorial for me to follow? :)
[02:47] <donald_> adelie43: using dhclient will work only for open networks
[02:47] <nemilar> Talon: I had that same problem, I don't remember how I fixed it to be honest
[02:47] <adelie43> donald_: open?
[02:47] <singlesun> Carbonflux, i do have the 64 bit boot disk sitting right here though... lol....
[02:47] <nemilar> Talon: mess with it enough and it's bound to kick in
[02:47] <Talon> Damn, mabey i need to reinstall...
[02:47] <Carbonflux> singlesun, ya, I made a special effort so I could try doing some C++ dev in 64bit
[02:47] <singlesun> Carbonflux, the only thing that stops me is the java and flash... lol
[02:47] <LjL> !away > ader10-ZzZzz    (ader10-ZzZzz, see the private message from Ubotu)
[02:47] <adelie43> donald_: network only uses mac address filtering...  hmm...
[02:48] <nemilar> tom__: is the drive mounted?
[02:48] <donald_> Siph0n: well. keep a ubuntu alternate disk handy. boot rescue mode.
[02:48] <tom__> No
[02:48] <singlesun> Carbonflux, i couldnt get the blackdown 64 stuff to work on here
[02:48] <Carbonflux> singlesun, I just googled for: howto 64bit Ubuntu 7.10 flash
[02:48] <nemilar> tom__: do you know what device it's been assigned to?
[02:48] <tom__> I can't figure out how to mount it
[02:48] <tom__> No, I don't
[02:48] <arrg> Hey guys does Ubuntu supports games like warcraft 3?
[02:48] <evan_> Hi I'm trying to get ascii extended characters supported in my terminal. ie: degree sign
[02:48] <nemilar> tom__: dmseg | grep -i disk
[02:48] <adelie43> donald_: the mac address would be the same for a combo integrated wired/wireless card, right?
[02:49] <singlesun> Carbonflux, and there is a bunch of teks out there on how to do it... and usually they end up failing on me... lol
[02:49] <jdh6403> arrg: it runs wow and civ4
[02:49] <Carbonflux> arrg, you need a compatablity layer like wine or cedega
[02:49] <arrg> how is that possible ?
[02:49] <donald_> adelie43: no
[02:49] <nemilar> tom__: it should show some lines that start with "sd" and have [sdX] in them, what is the X?
[02:49] <jdh6403> thru wine
[02:49] <tom__> I think you spelt that command wrong
[02:49] <Carbonflux> singlesun, well, there is hardly any performance difference anyway
[02:49] <jdh6403> many other games too
[02:49] <singlesun> Carbonflux, looks slightly better imo
[02:49] <nemilar> tom__: dmesg | grep -i disk
[02:49] <arrg> isn't games like warcraft 3 and wow made for only windows and mac ?
[02:49] <nemilar> tom__: spelled it right
[02:49] <adelie43> donald_: cause this is a friends computer, and hated windows... wireless connected before reinstall.
[02:50] <evan_> I'm getting ? in my terminal where I expect an ascii extended character ...
[02:50] <jdh6403> http://appdb.winehq.org/       arrg  go there
[02:50] <Jewfro-Macabbi> xMS_user, see also cfdisk and mkfs commands
[02:50] <donald_> adelie43: u may need a wireless key
[02:50] <jdh6403> wine is a windows emulator
[02:50] <arrg> Yesi understand what you mean guys
[02:50] <Carbonflux> arrg, read this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wine_%28software%29
[02:50] <nemilar> tom__: what's the error you get running the command?  or just no output?
[02:50] <tom__> I don't know which one it is
[02:50] <arrg> but i still can't believe its possible
[02:50] <donald_> sorry all, got to run
[02:50] <tom__> The command worked
[02:50] <arrg> damn this is wonderful
[02:50] <tom__> I don't know which drive it is, tho
[02:51] <arrg> so guess no need to buy windows xp or vista
[02:51] <jdh6403> anything is possible in linux    windows makes things impossible
[02:51] <adelie43> donald_: I was reading something about broadcom cards having full support under 7.10. true? cause when I couldn't get it to connect initially, I used ndiswrapper. there is no wep key
[02:51] <nemilar> tom__: it has multiple entries, sda and sdb, for example?
[02:51] <arrg> true jdh6403
[02:51] <tom__> Yes
[02:51] <arrg> true
[02:51] <singlesun> what i want to know though... is how ubuntu is on one cd... and stuff like slackware, redhat... etc... are on about 6 cd's
[02:51] <Carbonflux> ya, linux is transparent
[02:51] <nemilar> tom__: try running fdisk -l
[02:51] <Carbonflux> so the only limit is your skill
[02:51] <nemilar> tom__: does it list your disk's partitions?
[02:51] <Jewfro-Macabbi> singlesun, they just come with more optional packages on the disc
[02:52] <Jewfro-Macabbi> singlesun, I'd guess since Ubuntu gives away CD's - that's partly why they try and stick to one disc
[02:52] <Carbonflux> Ubuntu is more net oriented
[02:53] <singlesun> Jewfro-Macabbi, yeah... i mean.. you can still just get whatever package you need... so i dunno why these other OS's dont do the same
[02:53] <evan_> does anyone know how to get extended ascii characters to display
[02:53] <Carbonflux> singlesun, its a judgment call, Ubuntu assumes you will have a broadband internet connection
[02:53] <singlesun> Jewfro-Macabbi, just thinking back is all, lol... and wondering why my 14 hour redhat installs took so long... when i can install ubuntu in less than 15 mins.. lol
[02:53] <Jewfro-Macabbi> singlesun, most other's can actually be installed from the first disc only - with extras containing extra software - I know the Debian CD set is like that
[02:53] <Carbonflux> ya, Fedora is the same
[02:54] <Talon> Nem: My laptop overheated, it rebooted now it all works :D
[02:54] <Carbonflux> you can get minimal installs too iirc
[02:54] <arrg> wine is not an emulator ?
[02:54] <nemilar> Talon: haha, you might consider installing some temperature sensors
[02:54] <Carbonflux> its a compatibility layer arrg ;)
[02:54] <singlesun> Jewfro-Macabbi, Carbonflux, aha... and myself being a package-whore.... said "i want it all" ... so of course...
[02:54] <Carbonflux> heh
[02:54] <arrg> not bad
[02:54] <Andres_22rio4> hello, why i can only share folders of my home and not of other partition?
[02:54] <arrg> isn't ubuntu good as windows ?
[02:54] <Jewfro-Macabbi> arrg, correct - wine intercepts the call for a windows component and redirects to a suitable open source replacement - or tries...
[02:55] <Talon> Nem: yeah the fan in this thing has been broke for a long time. been debating about a cooling thing, but thanks for your help i gotta go now but im sure ill be back later, bye bye
[02:55] <|ns|nR8> security reasons Andres_22rio4, permission restrictions
[02:55] <Carbonflux> arrg, basicly it just maps window api calls into linux calls, its only really slow when running directX stuff, if a program supports openGL like Wow for example it runs great
[02:55] <arrg> k
[02:56] <newbie> I need some help, my usb memory is infected with some files, and I cannot delete them. Each time I use it under windows, the files become unusable, and when I try to create a new folder, a lot of trashy files appear. The thing is that the virus file is read only, and I cannot erase it. Is there any command that would help me erasing definitively an specific file?
[02:56] <singlesun> Carbonflux, seems im not the only person with a laptop in the closet that has a fan out... lol... accept when Talon's breaks it comes back fixed...
[02:56] <Carbonflux> arrg, you can run Wow in wine and take maybe only a 1/3 frame rate hit, if you have a fast machine its just as good as windows
[02:56] <Carbonflux> singlesun, laptops suck :)
[02:56] <singlesun> Carbonflux, thats why its in the closet... LOL
[02:56] <Carbonflux> you can't even put most of them on your lap
[02:56] <Carbonflux> it blocks the zillion fans they need
 how i can make it?
[02:57] <Ex-Cyber> ugh... I can print a test page, but if I try to print from evince the job just shows up as "stopped"... how do I fix this?
[02:57] <EADG> newbie: in a terminal you could use "sudo rm -f filename"
[02:57] <newbie> EADG, ok, thanks, will try that
[02:57] <jsoftw> I keep on getting weird lag with Terminal in xfce, for no reason I can find as yet, any ideas? Im low on cpu use, low on ram use...
[02:57] <xMS_user> would mkfs.ext3 -V /dev/sdc4 work?
[02:57] <Carbonflux> arrg, clearly it will never be as fast as native windows, but the advantage of not having to boot windows is a important for some people
[02:58] <newbie> EADG, I got this error -> rm: cannot remove `papps': Input/output error
[02:58] <Carbonflux> important one*
[02:58] <zedster> I was in earlier but maybe someone can try helping me again earlier I ran "apt-get remove udev" and it dumped the kernel I want to know if I can restore the kernel without a full reinstall
[02:58] <singlesun> Carbonflux, people like me.. that have a vista ultimate partition that rarely gets logged onto... lol
[02:58] <Carbonflux> did you run it on your amd machine singlesun ?
[02:59] <xMS_user> mkfs.ext3 -V /dev/sdc4
[02:59] <Jewfro-Macabbi> xMS_user, if you were asking me, I don't know I didn't read the man
[02:59] <EADG> newbie: Hmm, never seen that before. Not sure what to try next...
[02:59] <singlesun> Carbonflux, yep that is what i have it on ;) have to use it for work in visual studio
[02:59] <Carbonflux> singlesun, ya, I ordered Vista Ultimate so I could play around with VS and DX10
[03:00] <Carbonflux> singlesun, was wondering how it ran on a amd 64
[03:00] <Carbonflux> anyway, off topic here
[03:00] <Carbonflux> lol
[03:00] <newbie> hello, I need some help. I am trying to delete a virus file from a usb memory, using the rm -f command, but got this error->  rm: cannot remove `papps': Input/output error
[03:00] <singlesun> Carbonflux, runs good... lol... oddly there can get to be some screwed up lag when initially loading even moderate sized solutions though
[03:00] <Carbonflux> k
[03:01] <osxdude> newbie: Try ejecting, unplugging, then pluggng back in your flash drive
[03:01] <Carbonflux> singlesun, no doubt it takes a while to upload your source to M$ ;)
[03:01] <pawan> hi
[03:01] <osxdude> lol, my HDD was named "they have 6"
[03:01] <Carl-> hi
[03:01] <singlesun> Carbonflux, or the solutions they keep sending me have extra hardrive killing things that instantly bog down my pc... lol... no.. i dont think so.. i think its the microshaft
[03:02] <newbie> osxdude, already tried that, but still got the same error
[03:02] <Carbonflux> singlesun, VS 2005 ?
[03:02] <exophonix> what is the comman for stop firestarter please ?
[03:02] <newbie> that freaking virus is driving me nuts
[03:02] <osxdude> newbie: your flash drive might have the read protection on...
[03:02] <Carbonflux> exophonix, use the exit in the menu
[03:02] <singlesun> Carbonflux, yep I had 2008 but the files they send me were 2005 so i had to switch back
[03:02] <hans_> hi
[03:02] <Starnestommy> exophonix: sudo invoke-rc.d firestarter stop?
[03:02] <zedster> anyone have any ideas for me?
[03:02] <ojwb> Does anyone know if there's a way to rerun the keyboard layout detection you go through when installing?
[03:02] <arrg> do pc viruses affects linux ?
[03:02] <ojwb> without reinstalling that is...
[03:02] <Scunizi> I have one of my partitions labeled as "fuseblk" under type.  What is fuseblk?
[03:03] <Carbonflux> arrg, normally no
[03:03] <singlesun> Carbonflux, i didnt want to convert for 2k8 and then have them not be able to use naturally
[03:03] <arrg> but linux do have their own viruses right ?
[03:03] <singlesun> key word... = normally.... unless you are me... LOL
[03:03] <Carbonflux> singlesun, thanks for the info, ya I can see that, 2k8 is still beta anyway right ?
[03:03] <nemilar> poor tom__'s hard drive died
[03:03] <jack-desktop> can anyone explain how to use dbus.. or what it does?
[03:03] <newbie> osxdude, mmm I am not familiar with that. This flash drive is simple, has nothing special only the usb port. If you mean there is a hardware protection on, it is impossible. Now, could it be that it has some sort of software protection???
[03:03] <Starnestommy> arrg: very few exist and the ones that do are harmless or don't exist in the wild
[03:03] <singlesun> Carbonflux, you can check out the demo from Microsoft ... its Express though
[03:04] <nemilar> jack-desktop: as I understand it, it's a way for applications to communicate with each other
[03:04] <singlesun> note: I do not endorse the above action... lol
[03:04] <osxdude> newbie: what I meant was a little switch on the side of the flash drive
[03:04] <zedster> anyone in here a ubuntu master?
[03:04] <nemilar> jack-desktop: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dbus
[03:04] <jack-desktop> http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=4233478&postcount=10 i want to beable to do that, but i don't have a "~/.dbus/user-dbus-address"
[03:04] <newbie> osxdude, nope, there is no such thing
[03:04] <osxdude> newbie: but that could be a possibility
