[05:42] <Smilez> |Zippo|: I'm assuming you speak portugese?
[05:42] <DigitalNinja> How do I get line in working?
[05:42] <Wiseguy> ummm crdlb this doesnt seem to have helped... it shows that the restricted 3d driver is in use, but the resolutions are screwy and so are the refresh rates... does let me go above 1024x768 or 50hz
[05:42] <megafauna> hi which key is the SUPER key pls?
[05:42] <|Zippo|> Vistasux: ctrl+s?
[05:43] <Smilez> crdlb: See what im saying....
[05:43] <troxor> megafauna: the corporate logo (windows) key, usually
[05:43] <megafauna> troxor: thanks!
[05:43] <crdlb> Wiseguy: did you use the restricted manager to enable it?
[05:43] <oscar> somebody can help me? I have troubles with Nautilus.. This can't work fine.. IF I open some directory the computer begin to work very slowly.. Somebody know if Nautilus can't work with some aplication?.. I upgrade the system to 6.10 but the problem continue...
[05:43] <DigitalNinja> I'm trying to use a voip phone app but the line in doesn't work. How do I get line in working?
[05:44] <Wiseguy> crdlb, yes
[05:44] <Smilez> Wiseguy: I had the same exact problem. I ended up reinstalling like 3 times (no joke) give Envy a try http://www.albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html
[05:44] <megafauna> troxor: thanks! it's finally snowing:D
[05:44] <crdlb> Wiseguy: then: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new
[05:44] <troxor> megafauna: np
[05:44] <Smilez> no offense to crdlb, but i believe his hardware worked right out of the box
[05:44] <etzerd> Hello all
[05:45] <neonimr> smilez: by the way
[05:45] <etzerd> how is the new version of ubuntu?
[05:45] <Smilez> yes neonimr
[05:45] <etzerd> great I guest
[05:45] <Smilez> etzerd: its nice
[05:45] <neonimr> smilez: that was Scientific Linux i am using (based on RHEL) not ubunt :)
[05:45] <Smilez> etzerd: though i came from opensuse 10.2
[05:45] <mikey_sd> a bit slow I thought
[05:45] <etzerd> Smilez: I heard about it
[05:46] <Smilez> neonimr: All good.... linux is linux in my opiniohn
[05:46] <Wiseguy> crdlb, does that get the newest nvidia driver?
[05:46] <Smilez> err opinion
[05:46] <neonimr> smilez: exactly
[05:46] <Smilez> choose your flavour accordingly
[05:46] <crdlb> Wiseguy: yes
[05:46] <crdlb> well almost the newest
[05:46] <Wiseguy> crdlb, and what do i do after i install it?
[05:46] <neonimr> Smilez: i have both actually
[05:46] <etzerd> Smilez: Me too. I came from Opensuse 10.2 it's crap
[05:46] <crdlb> Wiseguy: nothing
[05:46] <Smilez> yeah i hated it, super slow, I hate KDE
[05:46] <crdlb> just reboot
[05:46] <neonimr> Smilez: but i cant get the built in nVidia lan to work
[05:46] <Smilez> thats odd
[05:46] <Smilez> generic drivers wont work?
[05:47] <Smilez> its wired lan right? not wifi?
[05:47] <crdlb> Wiseguy: that's assuming you used the restricted manager to enable the driver
[05:47] <etzerd> I'm using Fedora Core 6 now, but I heard about the new ubuntu it seems I'm going to switch from Fedora to Ubuntu
[05:47] <neonimr> Smilez: yeah
[05:47] <Smilez> etzerd: what don't you like about fedora, before you switch to ubuntu?
[05:47] <sanityx> Smilez, how about broken packaging
[05:47] <neonimr> Smilez: i am using ubuntu 6.06,which is old (that is the cd they sent me)
[05:47] <etzerd> It take too much to install the codecs to play dvd
[05:47] <Smilez> sanityx: you dont like that? :D
[05:48] <crdlb> neonimr: you need feisty to use that
[05:48] <^punisher> hi
[05:48] <Frizz0> hi
[05:48] <neonimr> Smilez: and it seems the old kernel didnt have a good support for that nVidia driver
[05:48] <Smilez> etzerd: codecs will always be somewhat of an issue
[05:48] <etzerd> where ubuntu have a guide that you can just copy and paste
[05:48] <^punisher> good
[05:48] <TheUni9> sup?
[05:48] <Smilez> neonimr: weird dude
[05:48] <sanityx> Smilez, Well I PERSONALLY love figuring them out. But you know, other people might not :-P
[05:48] <TheUni9> out of interest
[05:48] <Frizz0> you tell me
[05:48] <etzerd> I know
[05:48] <Smilez> sanityx: heheh i hear you on that one :D
[05:48] <etzerd> but ubuntu make it easier to deal with
[05:48] <Smilez> sanityx: I miss my slackware
[05:48] <sanityx> Smilez, Hey, slackware rocks!
[05:48] <neonimr> so what happened to slackware
[05:49] <Smilez> i completely agree
[05:49] <ahh> erver irc.blackened.com
[05:49] <neonimr> did they name
[05:49] <Smilez> it was the first linux i got my hands on
[05:49] <neonimr> did they change name
[05:49] <Wiseguy> crdlb, still no good
[05:49] <etzerd> where Fedora don't give you a clue at all
[05:49] <sanityx> Smilez, as long as you read up on what dependancies a package has in slackware, and install those deps, its works just fine
[05:49] <crdlb> Wiseguy: did you reboot?
[05:49] <Wiseguy> yes
[05:49] <Smilez> yeah... i got tired it after this many years :)
[05:49] <crdlb> Wiseguy: now use nvidia-settings
[05:49] <Smilez> crdlb: can you just let him try envy :D
[05:49] <crdlb> no
[05:49] <sanityx> Smilez, The problem with slackware is that all the packages are like 5 years old. Its still only has apache 1.x
[05:49] <DigitalNinja> How do I record audio?
[05:49] <Smilez> crdlb: I'm telling you hes describing the exact same issue i had, and envy solved it in less than 3 minutes
[05:49] <sanityx> DigitallyStoned, You speak into a microphone.
[05:49] <crdlb> there's nothing envy does that's going to fix it
[05:49] <etzerd> Smilez: what operating system that you use?
[05:50] <Smilez> sanityx: yeah... its a shame... but thats what happens to distros
[05:50] <DigitalNinja> sanityx: It's not working
[05:50] <crdlb> telling someone to run envy is equivalent to telling them to run automatix
[05:50] <Smilez> etzerd: i went from opensuse 10.2 -> ubuntu 7.04
[05:50] <sanityx> DigitalNinja, I was just messing with you
[05:50] <Wiseguy> crdlb, is that a commandline tool?
[05:50] <DigitalNinja> oh
[05:50] <DigitalNinja> lol
[05:50] <crdlb> Wiseguy: no
[05:50] <DigitalNinja> :0
[05:50] <Smilez> crdlb: i dont think those are two in the same
[05:50] <Jas1> I am trying to run the live CD, but I receive a "Failed to start the X server". Can anyone help?
[05:50] <crdlb> they're not but they suck equally
[05:50] <Smilez> well.. it worked for me. so im a fan
[05:50] <etzerd> Smilez: do you ever tried Fedora at all?
[05:50] <Smilez> i understand its not the best way to go about it
[05:51] <sanityx> crdlb, no it isnt. envy installs one package. automatix brakes EVERYTHING :-D
[05:51] <Smilez> but it fixed my problems very quickly, while everything else i tried gave me a solid white screen, no Gnome, and i had to reinstall 3 times
[05:51] <crdlb> yes but the video drivers are really important :)
[05:51] <Smilez> etzerd: I tried Fedora at school... on a test machine... that was about it
[05:51] <Thegiver> hi, lets say I want to create a shortcut which opens up konsole (or any other terminal) and executes a command .. but the terminal window for it stays open so i can later close the terminal and force quit the program
[05:51] <Smilez> crdlb: im telling you man... envy will solve the riddle
[05:51] <etzerd> Wow
[05:51] <etzerd> meaning you don't like it at all
[05:51] <sanityx> Smilez, I used fedora on production servers BEFORE yum was integrated.
[05:51] <Smilez> i had the same exact problem. I couldn't go beyond 800x600 and 50Mhz
[05:52] <sanityx> It was impossible to manage Smilez
[05:52] <etzerd> ?
[05:52] <Smilez> sanityx: when it comes to servers, i run FreeBSD
[05:52] <sanityx> yum = apt for redhat
[05:52] <sanityx> Smilez, I don't run unix at all.
[05:52] <Smilez> etzerd: I liked it, but not enough for my home PC
[05:52] <sanityx> Smilez, Actually that isn't true. I run solaris on some servers.
[05:52] <Smilez> sanityx: I swear by FreeBSD
[05:52] <Smilez> i like solaris too, but this opensolaris is garbage
[05:52] <crdlb> Wiseguy: did you get nvidia-settings open?
[05:52] <sanityx> Smilez, I'm not saying FreeBSD is great. I'm just not sure it'll be around in 10 years. And I don't run opensolaris I run sol10
[05:52] <etzerd> I install both Gnome and KDE on my computer is it a good idea? or should I just install one meaning either Gnome or KDE
[05:52] <Smilez> crdlb: let me know when you're done with him :D
[05:53] <sanityx> isnt great rather
[05:53] <sanityx> I dont want to learn a dying operating system.
[05:53] <Smilez> etzerd: KDE is slow imo.... i like Gnome
[05:53] <etzerd> Smilez: what you mean by not enough for your home PC
[05:53] <Wiseguy> crdlb, yup
[05:53] <crdlb> Wiseguy: go to X server display configuration
[05:53] <Wiseguy> didnt end up in my Applications menu like i thought it would
[05:53] <Smilez> sanityx: solaris is very similar to unix... just minor differences.... and FreeBSD has been around a while, and theyre still updating and maintaining
[05:53] <kristopher> Hey, i have a question regarding installing arhieved version of the nvidia drivers
[05:53] <sanityx> Smilez, I know that  but come on less people use freebsd every year.
[05:53] <Wiseguy> what is the best way to restart X after i make my changes?
[05:54] <kristopher> that question is.. How do you do that.
[05:54] <sanityx> Smilez, solaris IS unix.
[05:54] <Smilez> etzerd: not sure really.... fedora just never really grabbed me... i guess im not a fan of redhat
[05:54] <sanityx> Smilez, and so is freebsd
[05:54] <crdlb> Wiseguy: ctrl+alt+bksp works
[05:54] <theilliniguy> Anyone use desklets?
[05:54] <Smilez> sanityx: you know what i meant
[05:54] <mikey_sd> desklets?
[05:54] <etzerd> Thanks Smilez.
[05:54] <Smilez> sanityx: and though less people use it per year, it doesn't mean it doesn't do its job properly
[05:54] <crdlb> Wiseguy: do you see a way to fix the resolution in nvidia-settings?
[05:54] <Smilez> etzerd: no problem
[05:54] <theilliniguy> mikey its like widgets
[05:54] <etzerd> It's late in New York now I have to go to bed
[05:54] <sanityx> Smilez, I get that. But if it dissapears, it wont be a very marketable skill.
[05:54] <Smilez> sanityx: I install everything from the source, and install all the deps manually
[05:54] <mikey_sd> ah
[05:54] <etzerd> Talk to you tomorrow guys
[05:55] <Jas1> is there any way to make a Dell laptop with ATI X1400 detect the monitor?
[05:55] <Smilez> sanityx: any skill in Unix/Linux is good on the resume
[05:55] <Smilez> later etzerd
[05:55] <sanityx> Smilez, Ah, I install everything using apt, because its easier to maintain
[05:55] <|Zippo|> Jas1: i'm trying to do this with my sony vaio
[05:55] <Smilez> sanityx: I do that now at home :D but for servers... its all FreeBSD
[05:55] <sanityx> Smilez, ubuntu: server edition :-D
[05:55] <darwin> When I install a new theme it does not appear under Themes
[05:55] <Smilez> BSD skills make Linux = cake :D
[05:55] <sanityx> Smilez, I will admit ubuntu server blows. But its going to get better.
[05:56] <|Zippo|> i've put my monitor in clone mode, but I use 1280x800 on notebook and my monitor it's not widescreen
[05:56] <Smilez> sanityx: freebsd is minimalistic, fast, and most secure os out of the box for a server... of course configuration is key as is any server
[05:56] <Jas1> zippo: I keep trying to run the live cd/install, but it can't load the X server, because its unable to detect the monitor. the support page doesn't say anything
[05:56] <Smilez> sanityx: the problem with getting comfortable with APT/Yum/ and other packages, is when something breaks... you sit aroudn scratching your head too long
[05:56] <gerzel> I am thinking of getting a pda what plays well with ubuntu?
[05:57] <Smilez> sanityx: instead of jumping into the dep hunting, and fixing the root of the problem
[05:57] <sanityx> Smilez, Yeah thats one thing I like about ubuntu server. Next to nothing is installed by default. Just the gnu userland tools and apt and thats about it
[05:57] <|Zippo|> Jas1: did you try ubuntu?
[05:57] <Smilez> gerzel: I have a Nokia N800, it runs Linux... plays well with other Linux flavours, and has tons of open source possibilities
[05:57] <sanityx> Smilez, I've never had dependencies brake on me, except in fedora.
[05:57] <|Zippo|> Jas1: recognized all my hardware, including my webcam
[05:57] <Smilez> sanityx: my point was.... at somepoint... in a server environment... things will break
[05:58] <sanityx> Smilez, True
[05:58] <Smilez> sanityx: and the more comfortable they make the admins... the more they turn into windows admins
[05:58] <sanityx> Eww.
[05:58] <Smilez> sanityx: next thing you know, you got 16 year old kids with 1 book saying "I are a netadmin in leetnux sucka"
[05:58] <Smilez> sanityx: the easier they make it... the closer it gets to windows.....
[05:58] <sanityx> Smilez, Eh.
[05:59] <Smilez> Wiseguy: you still in here? Hows the nvidia driver install going?
[05:59] <sanityx> Smilez, I don't agree. Because the system works in a fundementally different manner.
[05:59] <sanityx> You can't argue that making linux easier to use is a bad thing.
[05:59] <sanityx> If you want things hard, go back to slackware :-P
[05:59] <Smilez> sanityx: on the desktop, I agree... ease of use is for the better... but in a server environment... i want an admin to use his terminal skills... not his mouse
[06:00] <sanityx> Smilez, Well of course. I never install X on a sever, unless its for a specific purpose.
[06:00] <Smilez> sanityx: you don't.... but others???
[06:00] <sanityx> Smilez, I don't care about others :-P
[06:00] <phy2> ...as long as the front ends are just manipulating text config files, it won't be windows
[06:00] <Smilez> sanityx: heheh... you should... they might give you a bad rap one day :D
[06:00] <sanityx> I r t3h l33t hax0r admin!
[06:00] <Jas1> does anyone know how to make the ATI Radeon X1400 detect the monitor?
[06:00] <sanityx> :-P
[06:00] <Smilez> hahaha
[06:01] <sanityx> Feisty has been a godsend for my laptop.
[06:01] <Smilez> sanityx: i agree, i really like feisty
[06:01] <fxfitz> With Ubuntu (Feisty), I've realized a significant decrease in battery life (more than an hour shorter than Windows). Is there any thing I can do to help this?
[06:01] <sanityx> I don't have to dive into wpa_supplicant every time I want to connect to a new network.
[06:01] <sanityx> wpa_supplicant is the most half arsed sollution to WPA i've ever seen
[06:01] <sanityx> it shouldnt be that complicated.
[06:01] <sanityx> and now its not :-D
[06:01] <Smilez> fxfitz: its one of the drawbacks of the OS...
[06:02] <gerzel> 2nd question I am also thinking of getting a graphics tablet what plays well with Ubuntu?  Wacom?
[06:02] <sanityx> fxfitz, That's strange. I've noticed about the same battery life.
[06:02] <fxfitz> Smilez, Drawbacks of Ubuntu? Or of Feisty? Or of Linux in general?
[06:02] <sanityx> gerzel, There are wacom drivers for linux.
[06:02] <Smilez> sanityx: luckily for me i don't need that :D but i had an easy time on another pc using Ndiswrapper for my BT chip wifi card
[06:02] <sanityx> gerzel, There hve been for year.
[06:02] <Smilez> fxfitz: linux in general
[06:02] <crdlb> gutsy will have a tickless kernel
[06:02] <sanityx> Smilez, Yeah I use ndiswrapper as well.
[06:02] <crdlb> which will help hugely
[06:02] <sanityx> Smilez, I haven't noticed less battery life.
[06:02] <crdlb> in battery life
[06:03] <sanityx> I recently deleted my windows partition :-D
[06:03] <Smilez> sanityx: im running this on a desktop... so im not sure... but i did read about problems with battery on some laptops
[06:03] <sanityx> Not mine, I get 4.5 - 5 hours.
[06:03] <jenocin> hey people, i'm braindead right now, where's the setting to start/stop gdm on boot, i'm used to runlevel 3/5
[06:03] <fxfitz> Blah. I get an hour and ten minutes! :'(
[06:03] <sanityx> fxfitz, What kind of CPU, and how many cells is your battery.
[06:04] <guhhh> how can i add a new keyboard layout?
[06:04] <sanityx> guhhh, Fairly certain you can apt-cache search them
[06:04] <boubbin> !flash
[06:04] <ubotu> To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[06:04] <fxfitz> sanityx, Err... I'm sorry, I really have no idea. I'm new to Ubuntu and Linux in general.
[06:04] <gerzel> ok cool
[06:04] <sanityx> fxfitz, You dont know what kind of processor your laptop has?
[06:04] <fxfitz> sanityx, Is there any nice commands that I could use to figure it out? :-P
[06:04] <fxfitz> sanityx, Well, that I know: Intel Core Duo
[06:04] <sanityx> fxfitz, A pentium 4? a core duo? a turion?
[06:05] <sanityx> fxfitz, Ah. You should get way more than 1 hour then.
[06:05] <jryer> Hello all... How do I format my usb hard drive in ubuntu?
[06:05] <fxfitz> But I have no idea bout the battery.
[06:05] <Smilez> i had a pentium 4 once.... i think it burned a whole thru my pants
[06:05] <sanityx> fxfitz, Unless its like a 4 cell battery
[06:05] <sanityx> Smilez, I had a P4 laptop for 1 week. It got 45 minutes of battery life.
[06:05] <Jas1> how do I detect the monitor with an ATI X1400?
[06:05] <Smilez> hahaha..... p4 on a laptop should have been aborted
[06:05] <fxfitz> Hehe
[06:05] <Druntar> .....:*(
[06:05] <sanityx> Cuz they actually used the desktop CPU in laptops.
[06:05] <fxfitz> So any idea whats wrong here? :(
[06:05] <Smilez> yep
[06:06] <sanityx> fxfitz, Is the battery old
[06:06] <guerrillawon> My webcam is up and running, I was just wondering if anyone knew how to check where the video is loacted, like, /dev/usb0 or something similiar?
[06:06] <Smilez> fxfitz: sorry buddy... i got no ideas
[06:06] <sanityx> fxfitz, are you running like 10 virtual machines?
[06:06] <underzr0> Why was i in the Kubuntu channel?
[06:06] <guerrillawon> Or more accurately which device locationg ubuntus recieving the video from.
[06:06] <yetiman> ls
[06:06] <LtL> guerrillawon - try /dev/video0
[06:06] <yetiman> ls
[06:06] <crdlb> I have a 9-cell, that I just replaced because it was down to about 45 minutes after 2 years of use
[06:06] <Smilez> underzr0: are you using konversation?
[06:06] <sanityx> wow
[06:06] <underzr0> yes
[06:07] <Jas1> What is the difference between ubuntu and kubuntu?????
[06:07] <underzr0> it comes set with it
[06:07] <sanityx> Jas1, Ubuntu uses gnome. Kubuntu uses kde
[06:07] <fxfitz> sanityx, I bought the laptop in August of last year (Dell e1505) and no, no virtual machines. The programs I run: xchat, gaim, Open Office, Firefox, Terminal, emacs, and XGL (except that is quite new and the battery life suxed before I got it working)
[06:07] <guerrillawon> Ltl thanks
[06:07] <sanityx> fxfitz, I donnu man.
[06:07] <Smilez> underzr0: konversation  defaults to Kubuntu because it prefers KDE
[06:07] <jryer> Do you (or anyone out there) know how to format a usb hard drive?  Using Ubuntu Feisty. Mouse randomly stops working. Stops system from rebooting properly. Must press button on tower.
[06:08] <Smilez> sanityx: hahah.... proud parent? :D
[06:08] <sanityx> Smilez, Turion 64 X2 (dual core) 1.6 Ghz, 2gb ram, 256 MB video card.
[06:09] <Jas1> my computer is good, but my video card is mest and ubuntu can't find a montior!
[06:09] <Druntar> Can anyone help me fix it?
[06:09] <godtvisken> Can I record sound from my USB mic? It works fine in skype, but i can't seem to record in audacity
[06:09] <sanityx> godlygeek, You need to find a way to tell audacity which audio recording device to use.
[06:09] <mikey_sd> time for a cocktail..anyone else?
[06:09] <sanityx> godlygeek, Skype is very good about that.
[06:09] <crdlb> ubrnub: not without some hackery
[06:09] <Smilez> nice. I went the intel route. 915D dual core 2.8ghz, 2gb ddr2, 256 geforce
[06:09] <crdlb> there's no 64bit version
[06:09] <crimsun> sanityx: godtvisken.
[06:09] <sanityx> Smilez, 2.8ghz cpu?
[06:09] <sanityx> in a laptop?
[06:09] <Smilez> desktop
[06:09] <crdlb> so you have to use nspluginwrapper or 32bit firefox
[06:09] <sanityx> ah yeah
[06:09] <sanityx> well
[06:09] <sanityx> Intel is 10x better
[06:09] <sanityx> but
[06:09] <Smilez> i had to give my laptop back to my school :D
[06:09] <sanityx> AMD is a bit cheaper still.
[06:10] <sanityx> And I'm a poor college student
[06:10] <ubrnub> crdlb: ok, thanks (just what i thought)...
[06:10] <Smilez> had i owned it, i woulda gone AMD
[06:10] <sanityx> Nah.
[06:10] <Jas1> is nvidia or ATI better?
[06:10] <Druntar> anyone?
[06:10] <sanityx> Core 2 Duos OWN Turions
[06:10] <Smilez> sanityx: tell me about it.... i just graduated, and im moving to san francisco with my GF... ima be brokeeee
[06:10] <crdlb> Jas1: for new cards, nvidia
[06:10] <sanityx> Jas1, For linux nvidia is way better.
[06:10] <crdlb> for much older cards, ati
[06:10] <sanityx> For windows, doesn't matter that much
[06:10] <ubrnub> crdlb: would it work with 32-bit firefox?
[06:10] <crdlb> and for cheap: intel
[06:10] <Jas1> dell sent me a replacement computer, and they took out the nvidia and put in ATI.
[06:11] <sanityx> Jas1, ATI SUCKS for linux.
[06:11] <sanityx> I should now.
[06:11] <sanityx> know*
[06:11] <sanityx> I have ati.
[06:11] <crdlb> not all ati
[06:11] <gerzel> hmm anyone used a palm tx with ubuntu?
[06:11] <Jas1> me too, it can't find the monitor
[06:11] <crdlb> old ati works great
[06:11] <sanityx> gerzel, I've used a treo
[06:11] <gerzel> anyone used one at all?
[06:11] <gerzel> I know palm in general works with linux
[06:11] <sanityx> gerzel, Your problem is you need to modprobe two additional modules to get palm sync to work
[06:11] <crdlb> ubrnub: yes but I don't know anything about how
[06:11] <sanityx> gerzel, I'll let you know what they are hold on
[06:12] <Smilez> real quick before i go... Anyone know of a website that has RSS feeds for Television programming?
[06:12] <Pelo> gerzel, state your issue, you're more likely to get an answer to your problem
[06:12] <crdlb> it's a pain
[06:12] <ubrnub> crdlb: ok, and thanks again
[06:12] <borgista> Question/Problem: My Optical Drives are detected but they don't detect a Blank CD-R.
[06:12] <sanityx> gerzel, modprobe usbserial and modprobe visor
[06:12] <gerzel> Oh no!  Sorry I'm looking to buy something to work with my system, not looking to get something working
[06:12] <sanityx> gerzel, then sync.
[06:12] <sanityx> gerzel, Ah ok.
[06:13] <leandro> Hi I am using Ubuntu edgy and I am unable to boot my client because he can't mount my nfs. But I am sure my nfs kernel server is running. Any ideas?
[06:13] <guerrillawon> Or I'm sorry, I asked the wrong question. I am getting a streamed webcam and was wondering where it is coming from, I'd ultimately like to be ablke to broadcast it from my computer to my pda.
[06:13] <Pelo> borgista,  did you enable it in menu > system > prefs > removable media ... ?
[06:13] <guerrillawon> So I need the incoming webcam information.
[06:13] <leandro> sorry, I mean I am using ltsp on ubuntu edgy
[06:13] <borgista> Yes, Pelo
[06:13] <guerrillawon> And was hoping someone would know how to locate it.
[06:13] <EADG> How do I umount with this error?  fusermount: failed to unmount /media/music: Device or resource busy
[06:13] <lord_daemon> [al4nc4ds]  x;)
[06:13] <Druntar> System : Intel pentium D 3 Ghz, asus p5nsli mobo, dual nvidia 7600 GS with 526mb, logitech g15 keyboard, logitech g5 mouse. Using Ubuntu Feisty. Mouse randomly stops working. Stops system from rebooting properly. Must press button on tower. Can anyone please help me fix this problem?
[06:13] <borgista> Pelo: it's set to automount anything
[06:13] <Pelo> borgista,  do you have the correct command to start the prog ?
[06:14] <borgista> Pelo: well I'm using the launcher in the menu to launch GnomeBaker to burn a CD.
[06:14] <tidrion_> question about fiesty fawn, installed it, was really excited about the update to the network admin, trying to connect to my wap router and can't even find it as an option I updated from dapper, any ideas?
[06:14] <Pelo> borgista,  that app I directed you to  has a switch in it to start a prog when blank media is mounted
[06:15] <crdlb> tidrion_: the network admin hasn't changed much, the change is the inclusion of network manager
[06:15] <LtL> EADG - are you in that dir [pwd]  or have it open? umount wont work that way.
[06:15] <borgista> Pelo: all the "ticks" are marked off, so I'd assume all should 'just work' as it did in Edgy.
[06:15] <crdlb> which is completely separate
[06:15] <wizard_> crimsun: hey are you here?
[06:15] <Pelo> borgista, just reviewing the basic
[06:15] <borgista> Pelo: ok, thanks :-)
[06:16] <tidrion_> before (in dapper) I could see my wireless but not connect
[06:16] <tidrion_> now in fawn I can't even see it
[06:16] <EADG> LtL
[06:16] <tidrion_> any thoughts?
[06:16] <crdlb> tidrion_: do you have the network manager tray icon?
[06:16] <tidrion_> yes
[06:16] <tidrion_> shows no wireless networks
[06:16] <godtvisken> Can I record sound from my USB mic? It works fine in skype, but i can't seem to record in audacity
[06:16] <EADG> LtL: yes, there was a program in that dir. Thanks.
[06:16] <crdlb> I don't know then
[06:16] <tidrion_> I can hit 8 from my other box
[06:17] <crdlb> what chipset?
[06:17] <tidrion_> is there anyway to change the 802.11 card prefs
[06:17] <tidrion_> crdlb: Where do I find that?
[06:17] <compilerwriter> wizard I haven't seen crimsun all night.
[06:17] <Jas1> is there a command or something I can use for ubuntu to recognize my monitor, since my ATI X1400 can't?
[06:17] <crdlb> tidrion_: lspci|grep Ethernet
[06:18] <Pelo> Jas1, just add the rez you need manualy in xorg.conf
[06:18] <wizard_> compilerwriter: that sucks
[06:18] <tidrion_> 00:12.0 Ethernet controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT6102 [Rhine-II]  (rev 78)
[06:18] <tidrion_> is that my wired card?
[06:18] <crdlb> yes
[06:18] <Jas1> pelo: I don't know how to access xorg.cong
[06:18] <crdlb> there should be another
[06:18] <guerrillawon> How to I check incoming internet connections?
[06:18] <compilerwriter> Don't I know it.  I finally gave up and did a total reinstall to fix my issue.
[06:18] <tidrion_> hmm
[06:18] <crdlb> or ubuntu doesn't see it at all
[06:18] <Pelo> Jas1,   gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:18] <lord_daemon> [01:18:30]  <Jas1> pelo: I don't know how to access xorg.cong
[06:19] <lord_daemon> xorg.conf
[06:19] <tidrion_> BCM4306 802.11b/g Wireless LAN
[06:19] <tidrion_> from the device manager
[06:19] <crdlb> tidrion_: oh it's broadcom
[06:19] <Pelo> lord_daemon,  I understood which file he meant
[06:19] <crdlb> they don't identify themselves in lspci right
[06:19] <Jas1> pelo: I don't have ubuntu installed, I'm trying to use the live disk/install it
[06:19] <crdlb> tidrion_: sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter
[06:19] <crdlb> then reboot
[06:20] <wizard_> i am sure that this question is gonna get me flamed
[06:20] <wizard_> any ideas why linux is slow on myspace?
[06:20] <Pelo> Jas1, same would apply   crtl alt backspace to restart X once you've saved the edits
[06:20] <wizard_> windows w/ firefox handles myspace pages fine... linux feels like its about to explode.
[06:20] <crdlb> wizard_: because flash on linux sucks
[06:20] <borgista> wizard_: flash
[06:20] <C> hello folks, just installed ubuntu..
[06:20] <wizard_> crdlb: i thought that it was fixed with the flash 9 release?
[06:20] <crdlb> no it just sucks less
[06:20] <Jas1> yes, but once I boot from CD, it brings be to a menu. how do I access the xorg.conf from there?
[06:20] <C> got my bluetooth enabled YAY, so its off to learning the ropes now.
[06:20] <crdlb> but it still is terrible
[06:20] <Pelo> C welcome to the madhouse
[06:20] <wizard_> lol
[06:20] <tidrion_> brb
[06:20] <Wiseguy> hey guys, amarok keeps crashing saying it has no mp3 support, does anyone know what i need to install to stop this?
[06:20] <wizard_> sucks less, love it
[06:21] <borgista> Pelo: any other ideas on why my drives ARE detected but no cd-r's?
[06:21] <C> p.s running an OS without a mouse is interesting, esp when u'v never used the OS before :O
[06:21] <Jas1> pelo: yes, but once I boot from CD, it brings be to a menu. how do I access the xorg.conf from there?
[06:21] <Pelo> !mp3 > Wiseguy  check your pm window for a msg from ubotu
[06:21] <borgista> Wiseguy: sudo apt-get install libxine-extracodecs
[06:22] <Pelo> borgista, not realy,  I assume you have tried several cd to make sure it wasn't one borked one
[06:22] <borgista> Yeah, I have Pelo
[06:22] <guerrillawon> Does anyone know how I would check incoming internet connections? I'm trying to find the infor for a webcam I am receiving.
[06:22] <guerrillawon> I'm sure it is a simple terminal command that is evading my searches.
[06:22] <crdlb> Wiseguy: so what happened with your nvidia card?
[06:22] <Pelo> Jas1, you can'T from the boot menu,  you boot into the live cd, make the edit and then restart X wihch restarts the window manager but not the computer or the os
[06:23] <borgista> Oh I wish I could burn CDs... ::sigh::
[06:23] <LtL> guerrillawon - netstat -tunap
[06:23] <Pelo> borgista, and itworks in other OS ? and it reads cd fine ?
[06:23] <Wiseguy> crdlb, oh sorry, i thought i told you... works great it seems, no problems, thanks a bunch for your help... even my tv was detected
[06:23] <borgista> It used to work in EDGY, just fine...before the update.
[06:23] <godtvisken> Can I record sound from my USB mic? It works fine in skype, but i can't seem to record in audacity (and sound recorder gives an error)
[06:23] <guerrillawon> again thank you very much ltl
[06:23] <borgista> I did a clean install of Feisty.
[06:23] <Pelo> borgista,  do you mean you can'T burn cd at all ? I thought you were just complaiing that it didn' auto start
[06:23] <C> so guys, whats the best IRC app to use.
[06:24] <crdlb> C: xchat is a popular choice
[06:24] <C> i grabbed xchat because i had heard of it...but im not liking not being able to see the user list easily
[06:24] <borgista> Pelo: I can't burn a CD because the CD-RW drive doesn't detect when I put a disk in there
[06:24] <crdlb> I like xchat-gnome myself
[06:24] <Pelo> borgista, check the device manager  and make sure the cdrw is recognised properly
[06:24] <crdlb> C: you got xchat-gnome
[06:24] <Jas1> pelo: when I boot into live cd, it starts loading, then the error message "failed to start the X server" appears. I then end up with a command prompt. what do I type here to open the config file?
[06:24] <crdlb> not xchat
[06:24] <borgista> C: try pidgin (formerly gaim)
[06:24] <C> yea, i have x-chat-gnome
[06:24] <crdlb> C: in xchat the userlist is in the sidebar
[06:24] <crdlb> C: get the real xchat
[06:24] <C> yea..i have to click to expand..
[06:24] <Pelo> Jas1,  ahhhh,  not the same thing at all
[06:24] <C> how do i get the "REAL XCHAT"
[06:24] <C> :)
[06:24] <borgista> Pelo: I'll check
[06:24] <crdlb> C install xchat
[06:25] <C> and what adv does it have
[06:25] <Pelo> Jas1,  try  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xorg-conf
[06:25] <crdlb> C: I personally like xchat-gnome, but xchat has more features and configurability
[06:25] <wizard_> i swear to you my harddrive gets hotter in linux
[06:25] <crdlb> it has the userlist on the side like you want
[06:25] <crdlb> !info xchat | C
[06:25] <ubotu> c: xchat: IRC client for X similar to AmIRC. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.8.0-0ubuntu4 (feisty), package size 295 kB, installed size 796 kB
[06:25] <crdlb> !info xchat-gnome | C
[06:25] <ubotu> c: xchat-gnome: a new frontend to the popular X-Chat IRC client. In component main, is optional. Version 1:0.16-0ubuntu3 (feisty), package size 305 kB, installed size 784 kB
[06:25] <Jas1> pelo: what do I do after that?
[06:26] <C> i see..
[06:26] <Pelo> Jas1, follow the instructions,  when in doubt go with the default
[06:26] <borgista> Pelo: all seems fine in the "device manager"
[06:26] <troxor> 3D/q
[06:26] <sanityx> Man why hasn't anybody built a kickarse torrent client for linux yet
[06:26] <Jas1> pelo: ok, thanks for your help
[06:26] <Pelo> wizard_,   I swear  my comp is generaly running hotter in feisty then in edgy or dapper
[06:26] <borgista> sanityx: Have you tried Deluge?
[06:26] <Quixotic> Hi everyone I'm a new ubuntu user. Converted from windows cold turkey yesterday
[06:26] <C> im trying to find the common, or creme de le creme apps for shit i used in windows...so that i dont feel lost :)
[06:26] <wizard_> linux makes my harddrive mble to roast marshmellows
[06:26] <RAOF> sanityx: Because people think they already have :P
[06:27] <Pelo> Jas1,  if that doesn't work you might have to resort to the alternate isnstall cd
[06:27] <sanityx> borgista, Yeah. Its alright.
[06:27] <wizard_> in windows the thing idles nice and cool
[06:27] <crdlb> !ohmy | C
[06:27] <ubotu> C: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[06:27] <wizard_> linux it feels ready to explode
[06:27] <C> i had things like winamp etc, and codecs and such, and a nice dvd/cd program etc etc
[06:27] <C> LOL
[06:27] <sanityx> borgista, Nowhere near as goot as utorrent
[06:27] <Jas1> pelo: how do I get one of those?
[06:27] <C> p.s. utorrent is amazing :)
[06:27] <borgista> you can use utorrent with wine
[06:27] <crdlb> rtorrent is king
[06:27] <borgista> sanityx: you can use utorrent with wine.
[06:27] <sanityx> borgista, I know that but running it with wine is lame.
[06:27] <Pelo> borgista,  check the forum
[06:27] <borgista> i know.
[06:27] <Flannel> sanityx: bittornado
[06:27] <C> yea, i want something native.
[06:27] <Quixotic> is utorrent better then azureus ?
[06:27] <sanityx> Flannel, Isn't that a curses client
[06:27] <C> whats the best native torrent app
[06:27] <underzr0> YES
[06:27] <sanityx> Quixotic, Yes.
[06:27] <C> YES, much better quix
[06:28] <Pelo> !alternate > Jas1  check your pm window for a msg from ubotu
[06:28] <sanityx> Azuerus is essentially uTorrent: Bloat Edition
[06:28] <Quixotic> I've always used azureus on windows and I just recently setup linux yesterday so I just went and got azureus again.
[06:28] <Flannel> sanityx: it's curses, and GUI, and headless.  Yes.
[06:28] <sanityx> Flannel, I'll check it out
[06:28] <Pelo> Quixotic,  utorrent uses a lot less resources then azureus,  even running on wine
[06:28] <C> is azureus any more efficient on linux?
[06:28] <wizard_> azureus is okay if you odn't mind the resource hogging
[06:28] <wizard_> k-torrent has come along nicely
[06:28] <borgista> C: I find it's the same
[06:28] <wizard_> i wish there was a gnome equivilent of that
[06:28] <sanityx> C azureus is FAR WORSE on linux then it is on windows
[06:28] <C> eww.
[06:28] <sanityx> C much less stable.
[06:28] <borgista> I love using Deluge
[06:28] <inoex135> i try to remove my tomcat but i got this error message "subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 127
[06:28] <inoex135> "
[06:28] <C> no bueno
[06:28] <dools> where are the powerpc versions for ubuntu? the download page has changed and i can't find them anymore
[06:28] <inoex135> aarrgghh
[06:28] <Flannel> sanityx: it's already installed, in a terminal, "bt[tab] [tab] " to see the various options.  (and double clicking a torrent file in nautilus brings it up)
[06:28] <C> so whats the native torrent prog of choice
[06:28] <inoex135> how can i fix it?
[06:29] <Vistasux> whats the apache configuration file called?
[06:29] <Pelo> wizard_,   deluge torrent is comming along but not upthere yet
[06:29] <wizard_> yeah is there a ktorrent for linux?
[06:29] <Quixotic> hey guys sorry for the silly question but I am using x chat for the first time is it possible to view a user list of who is in the chat room. I dont see any type of list.
[06:29] <sanityx> Flannel, oh yeah I know that client.
[06:29] <inoex135> somebody?
[06:29] <wizard_> ktorrent for gnome*
[06:29] <sanityx> Flannel, how do i get a gtk gui for it though
[06:29] <C> gnome is the default for ubuntu no?
[06:29] <sanityx> ah the  bittornado-gui
[06:29] <sanityx> C gnome is yes.
[06:29] <turiessia> hii
[06:29] <sanityx> C if you want KDE get Kubuntu
[06:29] <borgista> C: yes, and KDE is for Kubuntu
[06:29] <Pelo> Quixotic,  it 's probably just hidden,  mouse over the left and right edges
[06:29] <C> whats the pro's cons to KDE v gnome
[06:30] <turiessia> hiiiiiii
[06:30] <C> i know this is like a coke pepsi debate.but just curious
[06:30] <RAOF> C: Gnome is cool, KDE is crap :P
[06:30] <dools> C: use xubuntu
[06:30] <turiessia> jiooooooooooo
[06:30] <wizard_> now now
[06:30] <dools> xfce4 is better than either
[06:30] <Flannel> dools: PPC isn't supported as of Feisty, but you can get a community supported port here: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/releases/feisty/release/
[06:30] <tonyyarusso> turiessia: Do you have a question?
[06:30] <inoex135> i try to remove my tomcat but i got this error message "subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 127
[06:30] <crdlb> RAOF: KDE is krap :)
[06:30] <C> ive heard xubuntu is nice n lite
[06:30] <wizard_> desktop environments are totally subjective
[06:30] <Quixotic> Pelo, I don't see it hidden not much places it looks like it cna hide.
[06:30] <borgista> C: it's all personal choice...try both
[06:30] <wizard_> to each their own, elitests shut up
[06:30] <C> :)
[06:30] <C> whats the adv of xfc
[06:30] <C> ?
[06:30] <wizard_> C: xfce is great for machines that don't have a lot of resources to go around
[06:30] <wizard_> or for someone who likes their gui extremely streamlined
[06:31] <C> ah, very lite
[06:31] <dools> C: it's faster than either and doesn't try to do anything a window manager shouldn't
[06:31] <Pelo> Quixotic,  play around with the display option it will reapear when stuff gets resze ( and I mean play )
[06:31] <C> so xfc is whats in xubuntu?
[06:31] <dools> C: yep
[06:31] <wizard_> C: yes
[06:31] <crdlb> xfce
[06:31] <C> so whats the audio app of choice
[06:31] <Jas1> How does the minimal install CD work if I boot off of it, and my network card drivers haven't loaded yet?
[06:31] <wizard_> C: thats subjective
[06:31] <C> i use to use winamp, so thats my style..lite...features..etc
[06:31] <sanityx> Flannel, bittornado's gui is lame.
[06:31] <dools> Flannel: how difficult is it to switch window managers in ubuntu after you've installed it?
[06:31] <wizard_> C: banshee is nice in gnome, amarok in kde
[06:32] <dools> C: xmms
[06:32] <wizard_> those are the two most common
[06:32] <sanityx> Flannel, You need a seperate window for each torrent. its no better then the default gui torrent ubuntu has
[06:32] <C> banshee?
[06:32] <Flannel> sanityx: no, it's functional.  It downloads torrents, why do you want fancy dials and knobs and flashy things?
[06:32] <borgista> C: I prefer rhythmbox
[06:32] <Quixotic> I;m going to go blind in no time flat at this resolution and font
[06:32] <RAOF> !info banshee > C
[06:32] <Flannel> sanityx: bittornado IS the default torrent ubuntu has
[06:32] <Pelo> Quixotic,  change it
[06:32] <dools> C: check out Streamtuner, it's a nice app for tuning into shoutcast servers
[06:32] <sanityx> Flannel, yes but the bittornado-gui package is different from the default gui for it
[06:32] <sanityx> Flannel, I want a client that can display a list of downloaded torrents.
[06:32] <sanityx> Flannel, in ONE window.
[06:32] <Flannel> sanityx: but, the curses ones are more flexible. yo can do more than one, etc.
[06:32] <C> hmm, is stream tuner effective as an mp3 player..not jus a streamer?
[06:32] <Jas1> Can someone explain how the minimal install CD works?
[06:33] <sanityx> Flannel, In one window/terminal?
[06:33] <borgista> C: it's not an mp3 player
[06:33] <Flannel> sanityx: yeah, btlaunchmany
[06:33] <sanityx> Jas1, It installs a basic system and downloads the other pacakges from the net
[06:33] <dools> C: it's a streamtuner, i use xmms as an audio player
[06:33] <Flannel> Jas1: it doesn't.  THe minimal CD gets all the packages from the interblags
[06:33] <leandrobianch> what up
[06:33] <sanityx> Flannel, Interesting. But for torrents ill take gtk thanks
[06:33] <dools> C: so i browse shoutcase with streamtuner, double click on a station, and it plays in xmms
[06:33] <dools> s/case/cast
[06:33] <Jas1> flannel: will it be able to load my network card drivers?
[06:33] <C> is mplayer good?
[06:33] <Flannel> sanityx: shrug.  I prefer being able to logout and keep my torrents running in screen.
[06:34] <sanityx> Flannel, This is a laptop.
[06:34] <Flannel> Jas1: I have no idea what network card you have, so... I don't know.
[06:34] <sanityx> Flannel, I take it everywhere. When I'm not on it, its not on.
[06:34] <tidrion_> lmfao
[06:34] <C> mplayer...or vlc?
[06:34] <dools> C: xmms is a front end fo mplayer afaik
[06:34] <Flannel> sanityx: this is precisely why the !best factoid is there, and immensely relevant
[06:34] <crdlb> no it isn't
[06:34] <tidrion_> who was I just talking to?
[06:34] <Jas1> I have a broadcom, it is on the hardware compatibility list
[06:34] <tidrion_> crdlb: I had to go back to a recovery volume
[06:34] <dools> C: but i'm far from certain on that front
[06:34] <tidrion_> but....
[06:34] <RAOF> sanityx: deluge-torrent.  Does what you want it to do.
[06:34] <tidrion_> now my wireless network shows up
[06:34] <Quixotic> how do i reattach the tabs in x chat? i just did a detatch and I cant undo it lol
[06:35] <inoex135> i try to remove my tomcat but i got this error message "subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 127" somebody can help?
[06:35] <tidrion_> crdlb:  any thoughts
[06:35] <wizard_> i swear linux is not laptop-ready
[06:35] <Quixotic> ah there it goes
[06:35] <crdlb> tidrion_: none at all
[06:35] <wizard_> i spend more time fixing stuff that breaks out of the blue than i do actually using it
[06:35] <C> so can i use Amarok in gnome?
[06:35] <tidrion_> said something like: compression type not known
[06:35] <wizard_> C: you can use either in either but amarok will look absolutely ugly in gnome
[06:35] <sanityx> RAOFd , Yeah I had it installed and then it started segfaulting on me
[06:35] <Quixotic> palo I found my user list hidden away as you said.
[06:35] <RAOF> wizard_: Maybe not *your* laptop, but I got in early in Feisty's development cycle and all *my* laptop bugs are fixed :P
[06:35] <C> i see
[06:35] <Flannel> C: yep
[06:35] <wizard_> C: it will look absolutely uggleh!
[06:35] <wizard_> lol
[06:35] <C> whats the best movie player?
[06:36] <godlygeek> Flannel: lol@interblags.  :-D  best webcomic, hehe
[06:36] <C> vlc? mplayer? xmms? etc etc etc
[06:36] <RAOF> C: Totem :P
[06:36] <godlygeek> C: I prefer mplayer to all the others.
[06:36] <mikey_sd> I like vlc.  plays everything u throw at it
[06:36] <sanityx> Anybody know how I can read a .chm (windows help file) in linux.
[06:36] <danh_> how do i make mysqld not consume 100 percent of my CPU 24/7 ?
[06:36] <C> totem? i havent heard of that
[06:36] <wizard_> C: might i make a suggestion to you?
[06:36] <crdlb> totem is included
[06:36] <godlygeek> C: totem is installed by default, i believe.
[06:36] <Hell_Spawn> funny i seiously have few problems with my laptop and ubuntu
[06:36] <sanityx> C totem is gnome's default video player
[06:36] <Quixotic> forgot pelos nick so just took a guess
[06:37] <tidrion__> crdlb: well...
[06:37] <C> sure, whats the suggest...?
[06:37] <tidrion__> it works
[06:37] <Quixotic> dont be so touchy over 4 letters ;o
[06:37] <EADG> It's hard to choke VLC
[06:37] <Flannel> Quixotic: it's the highlighting thats important
[06:37] <Hell_Spawn> just use vlc its better than totem
[06:37] <DanaG> I figured out a partial solution for my inability to use the LADSPA host with pulseaudio:
[06:37] <Quixotic> I'm not sure how that works. First time using this.
[06:37] <Hell_Spawn> and requires less stuffing around with codecs
[06:37] <DanaG> Put a sock in the port of the subwoofer.
[06:37] <crdlb> I have (almost) all the mis-spellings of my nick in the also highlight box :)
[06:37] <Quixotic> Thx for helping me find my user list tho pelo.
[06:37] <Jas1> Has anyone successfully installed Feisty on a computer with an ATI Mobility Radeon X1400 Video Card?
[06:38] <DanaG> But PulseAudio still crackles.
[06:38] <wizard_> C: in the linux world... no ones opinion but your own matters on whats best. You've entered a gateway to liberal software, freedom of customization, and a world of amazement.  Don't ask people whats best, as we'll all see differently. Instead, play, experiment, and grow... Make linux work for YOU, not you work for it! Enjoy it, experiment, and learn to love it.
[06:38] <danh_> what is mysqld doing?
[06:38] <danh_>   PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND

[06:38] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about updgrade - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:38] <tidrion__> !upgrade
[06:38] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[06:38] <mikey_sd> well said
[06:38] <Quixotic> very well said wizard_ thats y I choose linux!
[06:38] <danh_> wizard_: are you high
[06:38] <Pelo> Quixotic,  you're welcome
[06:38] <C> thanks for the mantra and all ..im just trying to avoid the stuff thats ehh...but i understand ur point
[06:38] <wizard_> danh_: how is that a high statement?
[06:38] <wizard_> thats what linux is all about, making it work for you
[06:39] <danh_> you actually talk like that in real life?
[06:39] <danh_> that's amazing
[06:39] <dools> haha
[06:39] <Quixotic> lol
[06:39] <wizard_> danh_: yes, this is my philosophy on life, does it bother you?
[06:39] <dools> he is a wizard after all
[06:39] <danh_> can anyone give me some tips on how to make mysql quit being restarded
[06:39] <RAOF> DanaG: Hm, have you filed bugs?  'Cause we may be getting pulseaudio by default for Gutsy :)
[06:39] <Quixotic> I like the philosophy. I was tired of everyone using the same apps in windows and it not doing what anyone wanted.
[06:39] <dools> danh_: did you compile --with-non-retarded-behaviour ?
[06:39] <sanityx> Oh mighty wizard, shine down your knowledge upon us.
[06:39] <sanityx> dools, haha
[06:39] <DanaG> ....still haven't gotten around to it.....
[06:39] <danh_> dools: im just using a fresh install of Feisty
[06:39] <wizard_> I believe opinions are 100% subjective, and someone telling C what is "best" is misleading, because only he knows what works best for him. He may be unaware now, but he needs to learn and grow on his own
[06:40] <Quixotic> in here I have so many choices its just like crap ill try this one.
[06:40] <DanaG> When I do post one, I'll post my configs with it.
[06:40] <dools> danh_: what does that have to do with mysql?
[06:40] <danh_> i think you should all install 8 different window managers
[06:40] <wizard_> if he wanted an OS to tell him what to do, he'd still be on windows, hes here for a reason: The thrill to explore.
[06:40] <danh_> dools: i dunno.  i instlaled a packge. i didnt compile it
[06:40] <mikey_sd> yes
[06:40] <C> i understand wiz, im just trying to get "some" direction, if i find i dont like whats been suggested, move on..try something else.
[06:40] <C> im just trying to get "comfy" in my new surroundings...
[06:40] <wizard_> C: try them all! find what works best for you
[06:40] <Jas1> Has anyone successfully installed Feisty on a computer with an ATI Mobility Radeon X1400 Video Card?
[06:40] <dools> danh_: right, so when i asked if you compiled --with-non-retarded-behaviour you took that as a serious comment and actually think there is such an option?
[06:40] <wizard_> and then come in and show off your awesome customized linux one day and we'll exchange buttslaps!
[06:40] <tidrion__> wrong cord...
[06:41] <danh_> wizard_: you are definitely high
[06:41] <Quixotic> can anyone link me to or explain a procedure on coping dvds under ubuntu.
[06:41] <tidrion__> lol
[06:41] <|chiz|> poop
[06:41] <C> it would be foolish not to grasp at the wisdom of others who have gone through the transition im now experiencing
[06:41] <danh_> dools: no.  but do you know of anything that would make mysql consume all my cpu all of the time?
[06:41] <wizard_> C: ohh no, im not saying don't ask.. just ask whats out there, but don't listen to someone who tells you whats "Best"
[06:41] <Quixotic> C I am new to ubuntu also. What I did for a little bit of direction was looked at the star ratings on the apps listed in the add/remove app list.
[06:41] <dazza> danh_: lots of queries?
[06:41] <dools> danh_: having to make heaps of queries?
[06:41] <danh_> all queries are sleeping
[06:42] <thedonvaughn> Quixotic: wiki.ubuntu.com, do a search for restricted
[06:42] <DanaG> I will also file a feature request of "keep streams around for a while so you can move them"
[06:42] <danh_> im not running twitter off of my machine
[06:42] <oscar> I have some trouble with Nautilus... Some time ago that work slowly.. and now I upgrade the sistem.. Now that can't work..
[06:42] <Vistasux> question '/var/www/mysite.com/.htaccess ', if i dont own a domain and i want to password protect my website on my lan, do i need to put mysite.com in the .htaccess?
[06:42] <DanaG> and "remember preferred sinks for each app"
[06:42] <danh_> just a few php queries
[06:42] <Pelo> Jas1,  I'm sure it's been done , just install with the alternate cd , you'll get the vesa driver or somerthing then you can install the ati drivers,  there is a nice little app for restricted drivers in the admin menu
[06:42] <Quixotic> ty thedonvaughn
[06:42] <jenocin> so how do I keep gdm fro starting on boot?
[06:42] <Flannel> !restricted | Quixotic

[06:42] <dools> anyway, i'm out of this cesspit of n00bs
[06:42] <C> well xmms is just like winamp ..i like :)
[06:42] <wizard_> C: xmms was my favorite for a while too
[06:42] <Quixotic> hmm thats a cool feature you just did flannel.
[06:42] <Pelo> cesspit of noobs,  what a lovely image , what a lovely person
[06:42] <wizard_> C: fresh out of windows you'll want familiarity... then you'll grow into your own and change to better and bigger things.
[06:42] <Quixotic> Is that function open to anyone to use ?
[06:43] <RAOF> Quixotic: Yes.  Explore with private messages, though (/msg ubotu !stuff)
[06:43] <danh_> jenocin: sudo update-rc.d -f remove gdm
[06:43] <Pelo> Quixotic,  if you want to play with it   /msg ubotu  !keyword
[06:43] <Megaqwerty> I've been getting this error lately: "Couldn't load driver ALSA: dsnd_pcm_open(hw:0): Device or resource busy" any idea how to fix it, or its counterpart: "Couldn't load driver OSS: RageSound_OSS: Couldn't open /dev/dsp: Device or resource busy" ?
[06:43] <C> wow, its much lighter than winamp (resource wise)
[06:43] <Quixotic> pelo does /msg nick work for anyone or only the ubotu?
[06:43] <C> like it
[06:43] <LtL> jenocin - try f6 or whatever in the grub boot menu, login 'single that should do runlevel 3, then startx starts x.
[06:43] <jenocin> danh_: thanks was thinkni that, but i'm more use to using run levels
[06:43] <crdlb> RAOF: when you /msg ubotu you don't need the !
[06:44] <Pelo> Quixotic,  you need to be a registered user
[06:44] <RAOF> crdlb: But it doesn't hurt :P
[06:44] <bloodMuffin> can ubuntu mount an .iso in the same way that daemontools does: aka virtual drive. or do i need a separate tool for that
[06:44] <Quixotic> pelo where can I register my self? is it free?
[06:44] <sanityx> Does X have a native gui, independant of gtk or qt?
[06:44] <Megaqwerty> (The latter I usually get in vmware)
[06:44] <Pelo> Quixotic, registerd on the netowrk   /nickserv help
[06:44] <danh_> bloodMuffin: mount -o loop /mnt/directory /filename.iso
[06:44] <LtL> jenocin - apt-get install bum   bum = boot up manager.
[06:44] <jenocin> DanaG: thats more standard
[06:44] <Quixotic> sweet thanks pelo
[06:44] <Yggdrasil> i think totem is , being loaded up as my default player for mozilla, and i used to use mplayer does anyone know how to switch it ?
[06:44] <thedonvaughn> sanityx: X is a server.  and it has xlib.
[06:44] <oscar> If I write in the console sudo nautilus appear some message with problems with DBUS.. What can be that=?
[06:45] <Quixotic> everyone is so helpful here I think i might cry
[06:45] <Megaqwerty> bloodMuffin: There is a nice nautilus script to mount .iso files, I'll pastebin it for you
[06:45] <jenocin> LtL: i use diff os's, i'd prefer to keep em somewhat standard, actually i'm just trying to get Xvnc running off the xinetd
[06:45] <Pelo> Yggdrasil,  uninstall totem-mozilla in synaptic
[06:45] <DanaG> It lets me add "3" to the command line to prevent X from starting, if it is broken -- without restricting me to single-user.
[06:45] <crdlb> oscar: use gksu, not sudo
[06:45] <Yggdrasil> ok thanks
[06:45] <Pelo> oscar,  use gksu but you'll get a msg anyway, ignore it
[06:46] <Yggdrasil> ill try it
[06:46] <thedonvaughn> why use gksu instead of sudo?
[06:46] <kod> wow, i was about to ask about fixing boot levels, but bum looks great.
[06:46] <Pelo> gksu for gui apps
[06:46] <Yggdrasil> pelo doesnt seem to be playin

[06:46] <Flannel> !iso | bloodMuffin, sorry this one
[06:46] <ubotu> bloodMuffin, sorry this one: To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint>  - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[06:46] <DanaG> Best thing I ever did with Beryl:
[06:46] <Yggdrasil> pelo, totoem doesnt seem to be playing cnn.com
[06:46] <danh_> how do i make s2disk not mess up my resolution after hibernate ?
[06:46] <Megaqwerty> bloodMuffin: take this script: http://megaqwerty.pastebin.ca/476544 and put it in ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts/ and don't forget to make it executible
[06:46] <Pelo> Yggdrasil,  you also need to install mplayer-mozilla and the codecs if needed
[06:46] <RAOF> thedonvaughn: Using "sudo" with graphical apps can have annoying side effects.
[06:47] <oscar> and what can I do?? Nautilus use a lot of CPU process.. And after some time the sistem is very slowly and I need restart :S
[06:47] <DanaG> Set Beryl to twice the native framerate, with vsync off; set nvidia-settings to vsync ON.
[06:47] <tidrion__> gonna try to reboot, see if my default is working yet
[06:47] <jenocin> so is anyone running vnc through inetd?
[06:47] <Pelo> Yggdrasil,  I thought you wanted to get rid of totem-mozilla ?
[06:47] <crdlb> !gksu | thedonvaughn
[06:47] <C> so what are the better torrent handlers ?
[06:47] <ubotu> thedonvaughn: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use  gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using  sudo <GUI-application>
[06:47] <Yggdrasil> pelo i do
[06:47] <Yggdrasil> ;)
[06:47] <Yggdrasil> i was jsut tellin you why
[06:47] <Megaqwerty> bloodMuffin: then you can right click on the iso, and choose whatever you named the script, and it will be mounted. run the same script on it to unmount it
[06:47] <thedonvaughn> ah ok right on
[06:47] <Vistasux> hey whats the touch command do?
[06:47] <bloodMuffin> Megaqwerty: ok let me try that thanks
[06:47] <Wiseguy> hey guys, is there anyway to test and make sure my 3d is working?
[06:47] <riddlebox> how do I totally remove a package that I apt-get'd?
[06:47] <Flannel> Vistasux: depends.  It'll create a file, or update the timestamp on the file.
[06:47] <Pelo> Yggdrasil,  remove totem-mozilla,  install mplayer-mozilla ,  then get the codecs
[06:48] <danh_> Vistasux: use it to update the file update time of a file
[06:48] <Yggdrasil> yea
[06:48] <Yggdrasil> thanks
[06:48] <Flannel> riddlebox: sudo apt-get remove --purge [package]
[06:48] <riddlebox> ahh thanks
[06:48] <oscar> crdlb: what can I do?
[06:48] <danh_> i use it to see if a partition is read/write read/only
[06:48] <Vistasux> touch /var/www/mysite.com/.htaccess
 what can i do?
[06:48] <Pelo> oscar,  for what ?
[06:48] <Megaqwerty> bloodMuffin: actually, on second thought, I don't think this script unmounts it. But you should be able to unmount it easily
[06:48] <QuixoticJ> aw the nicks i wanted are aready registered -(
[06:48] <anotherpunk> should I use the fiesty alternate disc if the live disc hangs upon installation?
[06:49] <Megaqwerty> I've been getting this error lately: "Couldn't load driver ALSA: dsnd_pcm_open(hw:0): Device or resource busy" any idea how to fix it, or its counterpart: "Couldn't load driver OSS: RageSound_OSS: Couldn't open /dev/dsp: Device or resource busy" ?
[06:49] <badserii> The applet in my bar, that was showing me the applications that were running (ex. Gaim, Ekiga), in my taskbar dissapeared. How can I put it back?
[06:49] <Geoffrey2> can someone provide me a link for instructions on how to set up ftpd?
[06:49] <Yggdrasil> pelo worked like a champ thanks
[06:49] <Pelo> Yggdrasil,  tell your freinds
[06:50] <oscar> Pelo: Nautilus begin to work very slowly some time ago.. and  if I use the computer some  moment after 10 or 15 minutes the computer is absolutely used by the the nautilus processa.. What can i do??
[06:50] <anotherpunk> I have a slow CD drive, and Fiesty just freezes during install, should I use the alternate disc?
[06:50] <Pelo> oscar,  I donT'know what your problem could be , check the forum for a solution,  but you shouldn'T be running nautilus or any apps as root
[06:50] <Flannel> Geoffrey2: https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu/serverguide/C/ftp-server.html
[06:50] <C> hmm...azureus or ktorrent?
[06:50] <C> or bittornado
[06:50] <DanaG> Cannot talk to klauncher
[06:50] <Yggdrasil> pelo yar
[06:51] <Flannel> anotherpunk: Check the CD for defects, a slow drive shouldn't cause freezing (well, unless it's slow and malfunctioning)
[06:51] <DanaG> how do I restart klauncher, then?
[06:51] <Pelo> C utorrent running on wine
[06:51] <danh_> C: wizard_ says use all 3
[06:51] <danh_> i like utorrent under wine
[06:51] <anotherpunk> well i'm unaware as to the speed of the drive but it's OLD, is there any way I can make my external CD/DVD Drive boot instead?
[06:51] <C> is utorrent on wine still the best. wouldnt that hog some resources
[06:51] <sanityx> eh. i dont like using wine unless its necessar
[06:51] <sanityx> y
[06:51] <thedonvaughn> hey, if using an athalon64 in 32bit systems.. what's the recommended CPU setting for kernel config?
[06:51] <danh_> C: I think the overhead is negligible
[06:52] <danh_> there is definitely a lot less overhead than running Java+Azeurus
[06:52] <sanityx> danh_, its very ugly though
[06:52] <Pelo> C amazingly no, it's still more efficient then az,  but then so is verything else
[06:52] <danh_> it has to download files, not look pretty
[06:52] <Flannel> thedonvaughn: -generic kernel
[06:52] <sanityx> danh_, I like interfaces to look clean
[06:52] <Stumpf> rtorrent for the win
[06:52] <danh_> sanityx: I want a pony
[06:52] <sanityx> danh_, Me too! omg!
[06:52] <Flannel> !offtopic
[06:53] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[06:53] <QuixoticJ> danh_, C, Is there something wrong with the default torrent client that came with ubuntu ? I'm just curious since I'm a new user I'm wondering if I should seek an alternate as well.
[06:53] <sanityx> oh shush
[06:53] <Pelo> sanityx,  it's easily solved in more recent versions,  just edit the /.wine/user.reg file for your own colours
[06:53] <sanityx> Pelo, Do it for me :-P or i could just use deluge/bittornado/whatever
[06:53] <C> QuixoticJ: i used utorrent forever and its hard to lose that....so im looking for a good option - i was spoiled :)
[06:53] <DanaG> Oh yeah, another bug: try the Human msstyles theme in Wine: you'll find it joyously gobbles up a whole CPU when rendering a tab control.
[06:54] <danh_> QuixoticJ: I use uTorrent because it makes it easy for me to limit the upstream bandwidth used, specify a folder containing torrent files that will be automatically downloaded, automating stuff, providing a fast dialogue to select which files in a torrent to download, specify ports
[06:54] <jlilly> C, what does utorrent do that ktorrent doesn't?
[06:54] <sanityx> Pelo, hahahaa
[06:54] <danh_> QuixoticJ: and a bunch of other things.  Im sure you can do all of that in rtorrent ktorrent ctorrent bittorrent whatever
[06:54] <C> i dont know yet, lilly, i havent used ktorrent yet.
[06:54] <DanaG> I use Azureus because uTorrent doesn't do encoded filenames very well.
[06:54] <jlilly> bah! forgot this was #ubuntu and not #kubuntu
[06:54] <anotherpunk> Can I make an external CD/DVD Drive boot before my internal drive?
[06:54] <jlilly> I <3 ktorrent, though. I'm grepping an RSS feed for TV shows I want to watch.
[06:55] <DanaG> For example, things named like this woud probably choke it: /media/XP/Documents and Settings/Dana/My Documents/My Music/ - .hack--SIGN Original Sound & Song Track 1
[06:55] <jlilly> anotherpunk: that's a bios option.
[06:55] <fierycleric> #bios :)
[06:55] <anotherpunk> it doesn't show up, i've looked
[06:55] <Jas1> When I install ubuntu, will it create a new partition on my hard drive and leave the windows one alone?
[06:55] <anotherpunk> yes it should, jas
[06:55] <jlilly> anotherpunk: look for "boot device order" or something like that.
[06:55] <jlilly> anotherpunk: your bios has that option somewhere. gaurenteed.
[06:55] <Jas1> anotherpunk: ok
[06:55] <anotherpunk> does it matter that it's a USB drive?
[06:55] <Pelo> Jas1,  as long as you have unallocated space ,  other wise you have to rezise the windwos partition to make room
[06:56] <jlilly> anotherpunk: it might... depends if your bios supports booting from USB
[06:56] <danh_> Azureus handles  ?
[06:56] <Jas1> pelo: how can I resize the partition?
[06:56] <rubberducky> Can anyone help me with my file sharing problems?
[06:56] <anotherpunk> alright thanks, i'll go check it out now :)
[06:56] <alien8ed>  was in a chat before trying to get help, and I think I was the butt of a joke
[06:56] <sanityx> Pelo, wow. that really looks excellent. thanks!
[06:56] <xSUSHix> There is a user connected to my computer - how do i disconnect his IP ?
[06:56] <Punkunity> whoa fluxbox is wierd
[06:56] <GenNMX> danh_: That comes out as a string of weird characters on irssi.
[06:56] <Punkunity> very weird
[06:56] <danh_> xSUSHix: punch him in the face
[06:56] <Pelo> Jas1,  partition magic,  parted ( command line in the ubuntu aternate install cd) gparted in the live cd
[06:56] <Punkunity> and strange and wiers
[06:56] <jlilly> Punkunity: minimalist. You get used to it though.
[06:56] <Punkunity> d
[06:56] <xSUSHix> There is a user connected to my FTP - how do I boot him ?
[06:56] <danh_> xSUSHix: pkill -u username
[06:56] <xSUSHix> danh thx
[06:56] <Pelo> sanityx, all your bases belong to me now hahahahah
[06:57] <GenNMX> xSUSHix: Find his ctrl+alt+delete buttons?
[06:57] <sanityx> Pelo, indeed.
[06:57] <Punkunity> im not even used to gnome or especially KDE but this flux box is...i dont know...small..
[06:57] <xSUSHix> danh - can i do it by ip ?   i dont know the user name
[06:57] <rubberducky> Can anyone help me transfer files from a windows xp box to my ubuntu computer
[06:57] <Punkunity> i cant habg with this
[06:57] <rubberducky> I have samba installed and ubuntu sees the windows computer on the network
[06:57] <Punkunity> i g2g back to gnome which is home
[06:57] <fierycleric> xSUSHix: cant you just restart the ftp service...
[06:57] <danh_> xSUSHix: unless you are doing something really odd, i don't think processes are bound to ip addresses
[06:57] <alien8ed> I need help undoing a command some jerk told me to put into terminal.  can anyone help me?
[06:57] <Jas1> pelo: can I change the partitions from windows?
[06:57] <rubberducky> However when i click to go to the computer...it just loads up a blank screen and doesn't show the files
[06:58] <xSUSHix> fireyclerk : no i have other users connected - but this guy is connected and i dont know what user name he is using - i just have his IP
[06:58] <sanityx> Pelo, Oh . .  . yeah i dont think you can effect linux boxes with .reg files :-P
[06:58] <DanaG> I'm having a helluva time getting TCP/IP to work, however -- it needs VDE, and all I can find a daemon for is UML.
[06:58] <rubberducky> aliden8ed: what'd you put in?
[06:58] <GenNMX> rubberducky: Make sure you have smbclient installed as well, and a file explorer which supports smb://
[06:58] <Pelo> Jas1,  you'll need a windows partition manager, I can't realy help you with that
[06:58] <danh_> xSUSHix: you can use lsof to figure out what process is using which socket which is being used by what user
[06:58] <rubberducky> Um GenNMX I installed samba and am using naut
[06:58] <rubberducky> I need smbclient?
[06:58] <alien8ed> rubberducky: sudo rm -R /
[06:58] <godtvisken> Can I record sound from my USB mic? It works fine in skype, but i can't seem to record in audacity (and sound recorder gives an error)
[06:58] <Jas1> pelo: ok I'll use the ubuntu CD
[06:58] <fierycleric> xSUSHix: use are firewall rule to drop packets from his ip
[06:58] <xSUSHix> danh - well how would i find out what user name he is on under ?    i checked the log file it doesnt say hes connected - but firestarter is showing he is
[06:59] <rubberducky> alien8ed: I think you are messed up
[06:59] <rubberducky> it deleted a lot of important files..
[06:59] <rubberducky> Just reinstall ubuntu
[06:59] <danh_> xSUSHix: are you sure he's using something?  pstree username
[06:59] <rubberducky> Don't worry...someone made me do it once too...it is a noob thing :p
[06:59] <Pelo> Jas1, I won'T be able to help you much with repartitionning anyway unless you can boot the live cd, I'm pretty much a noob at this myself
[06:59] <dac_> I get pop-up notice in email,"leaving an encrypted area, do you want to continue?"; how do you encrypt?
[06:59] <danh_> i wish someone could fix my no sound after hibernation problem
[06:59] <rollerskatejamms> Man. I kinda want to use Kubnutu but I find the experience lacking on a laptop.
[07:00] <rubberducky> GenNMX: I have samba installed and im using naut from gnome
[07:00] <Pelo> g'night folks
[07:00] <DanaG> Lacking?  How?
[07:00] <DanaG> Oh, guidance-powermanager sucks compared to kpowersave.
[07:00] <alien8ed> rubberducky: I won't be able to recover anything?
[07:00] <fierycleric> dac_: using your web browser?
[07:00] <GenNMX> rm -R / would prompt you for each file...if you sit there, accepting all the prompts, then that will kill your ego out-right
[07:00] <Jas1> pelo: you are very helpful though
[07:00] <ZeZu> rubberducky, ftp?
[07:00] <dac_> yes.
[07:00] <rollerskatejamms> DanaG, Well I only used it on 6.10 not feisty. But gnome seems to just work better, especially when it comes to network connections
[07:00] <GenNMX> rubberducky: Try smb://windows box ip address
[07:00] <rollerskatejamms> DanaG, Also, I can't stand the Qt widgets.
[07:00] <DanaG> add knetworkmanager.
[07:01] <jlilly> xSUSHix: you have anything good on that ftp server ;)
[07:01] <xSUSHix> There is a user connected to my proftpd - how do I disconnect him?
[07:01] <xSUSHix> yes i do
[07:01] <xSUSHix> but only 15K upstream
[07:01] <GenNMX> rubberducky: Also, make sure Samba is properly configured, such that at least Samba and the Windows Box is in the same group
[07:01] <rollerskatejamms> DanaG, I find KDE applications to be more feature rich, but uglier, then gnome applications.
[07:01] <rubberducky> How do I do that?
[07:01] <drwxr-xr-x> xSUSHix: you could get rid of anonymous connections to your proftpd
[07:01] <rubberducky> Configure samba?
[07:02] <sjck_> Hey, somehow I cant delete files and ls -l looks weird for some files/folders -> http://rafb.net/p/h2KE7z33.html I cant even delete them :(
[07:02] <jlilly> xSUSHix: mind if I pm?
[07:02] <DanaG> Same here.
[07:02] <Megaqwerty> I've been getting this error lately: "Couldn't load driver ALSA: dsnd_pcm_open(hw:0): Device or resource busy" any idea how to fix it, or its counterpart: "Couldn't load driver OSS: RageSound_OSS: Couldn't open /dev/dsp: Device or resource busy" ?
[07:02] <drwxr-xr-x> xSUSHix: isnt their ip address in the logs?  you could block that ip at the firewall level
[07:02] <GenNMX> rubberducky: Yes, you need to configure samba for client connections too...
[07:02] <fierycleric> dac_: some sites only encrypt when you are loggin in , so after that they go back to normal http , look in the address bar, when its yellow starts with https:... its an encrypted connection to the website, when its white and starts with http is a normal connection
[07:02] <rollerskatejamms> I do still use yakuake though :-D
[07:02] <DanaG> I'm using the Polyester style for KDE apps, because it's the only decently close thing to Human-Ubuntulooks.
[07:02] <rubberducky> I didn't know that... GenNMX ...
[07:02] <rubberducky> How do I do that?
[07:02] <drwxr-xr-x> I hate Human
[07:02] <QuixoticJ> omg I just put a dvd in and it showed up on my desktop. And when I right click it there is an option that says copy disk, Is it really that crazy simple ?
[07:02] <drwxr-xr-x> Blubuntu is tolerable
[07:02] <rollerskatejamms> DanaG, Yeah but you still have those ugly buttons.
[07:02] <GenNMX> rubberducky: SWAT
[07:03] <DanaG> I made them glass, and I used a Human color theme I downloaded.
[07:03] <drwxr-xr-x> QuixoticJ: doubt it
[07:03] <rollerskatejamms> DanaG, I actually use Wasp :-D
[07:03] <dac_> ok, thank you
[07:03] <rubberducky> im guessing Swat is a gui for samba?
[07:03] <rollerskatejamms> I kinda like beos
[07:03] <DanaG> I also set the button color to match the background.
[07:03] <GenNMX> rubberducky: Yes.
[07:03] <rollerskatejamms> rubberducky, A very poor one.
[07:03] <DanaG> wasp?
[07:03] <Megaqwerty> QuixoticJ: quite possibly
[07:03] <rollerskatejamms> DanaG, BeOS theme.
[07:03] <Akuma_> are there a lot of apps that don't work under 64bits? would they work fine with ia32-libs*
[07:03] <Akuma_> ?
[07:03] <Megaqwerty> QuixoticJ: if not, install k3b it's great for all your CD/DVD needs
[07:03] <rubberducky> I really need to skin irssi...this color scheme blows
[07:03] <rollerskatejamms> Akuma_, I think most work.
[07:03] <rollerskatejamms> rubberducky, Or download xchat :-P
[07:03] <rubberducky> Hah
[07:03] <drwxr-xr-x> rubberducky: /script load nickcolor.pl
[07:03] <QuixoticJ> do you have to have kde for that megaqwerty?
[07:04] <GenNMX> You can't run xchat in screen!
[07:04] <Akuma_> rollerskatejamms: i heard flash and skype don't play well with 64..?
[07:04] <Megaqwerty> QuixoticJ: nope, you can run it in gnome
[07:04] <rubberducky> Okay... Whats that do?
[07:04] <rollerskatejamms> Akuma_, Idk about skype. but yeah flash is hard to get working.
[07:04] <xSUSHix> drwxr-xr-x i do not have anonymouos access enabled - he is connected as my main user and has somehow acquired my password.   he is currently downloading my files - how do i set up the firewall to disallow him?  im using firestarter and only see how to allow - not disallow
[07:04] <rollerskatejamms> Akuma_, you have to mess with it to get 32 bit flash installed
[07:04] <rubberducky> drwxr-xr-x: What does that do?
[07:04] <drwxr-xr-x> xSUSHix: change the password
[07:04] <Jas1> xSHSHix: unplug your network cable?
[07:04] <rollerskatejamms> xSUSHix, kill the ftp server temporarily
[07:04] <drwxr-xr-x> rubberducky: makes pretty colors
[07:04] <DanaG> Try gaim-text in screen.
[07:04] <drwxr-xr-x> xSUSHix: change your password, restart vsftpd
[07:04] <DanaG> it's sweet.
[07:04] <QuixoticJ> Megaqwerty im really looking for the best solutions for simple dvd coping and dvd data disc creation. Since I have to teach it to my family members also. They are use ot my 2 click windows solution of dvd coping.
[07:04] <rubberducky> Does irssi have a nice theme built in or no?
[07:05] <rollerskatejamms> DanaG, gaim-text is nice. waaaay nicer then naim
[07:05] <drwxr-xr-x> rubberducky: irssi has about 1000 different themes
[07:05] <rubberducky> already installed?
[07:05] <rubberducky> I just need a visible one...
[07:05] <DanaG> I never managed to 'grok' how to use naim.
[07:05] <Akuma_> rollerskatejamms: that kinda sux. i dunno whats worst, an unused 64b cpu or messing with non-64b apps
[07:05] <lil_cain> rubberducky: the defualt one is ok
[07:05] <rubberducky> When people say my name...their name shows in an unreadable yellow
[07:05] <rubberducky> I can't see shit :/
[07:05] <rollerskatejamms> Akuma_, an unused 64bit cpu is actuallly meaningless for most things.
[07:05] <Megaqwerty> QuixoticJ: Well, k3b has a great gui, just download it, and try it out. If you don't like it, you can remove it.
[07:05] <lil_cain> it should turn up yellow, but not unreadable
[07:05] <tonyyarusso> !ohmy | rubberducky
[07:05] <ubotu> rubberducky: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[07:06] <drwxr-xr-x> rubberducky: i like madcow
[07:06] <Megaqwerty> QuixoticJ: but it's very easy to use
[07:06] <drwxr-xr-x> rubberducky: http://irssi.org/themefiles/madcow.theme
[07:06] <jenocin> ok got vnc running through xinetd but getting May  8 01:02:57 vtg2 xinetd[9463] : warning: can't get client address: Transport endpoint is not connected
[07:06] <jenocin>  in the logs
[07:06] <GenNMX> rubberducky: Are you using irssi in a ssh session from your Windows machine, or on the machine through X, or at the console?
[07:06] <drwxr-xr-x> i wish i could get otr-proxy working in ubuntu
[07:06] <rubberducky> Through my ubuntu machine
[07:06] <GenNMX> rubberducky: For the first two situations, your problem is not irssi.
[07:06] <rubberducky> I'm sitting here on it :p
[07:06] <QuixoticJ> megaqwerty I will check it out. But first im going to see what this right click copy disc does. If it actually works I will be totally amazed
[07:07] <drwxr-xr-x> rubberducky: you could change your terminal colors
[07:07] <rubberducky> Did you really just tell me not to say sh*t?
[07:07] <Megaqwerty> QuixoticJ: it also makes .iso files of dvds, which it can then subsequently burn to a blank dvd, or dvd+rw
[07:07] <drwxr-xr-x> rubberducky: you are arguing with a perl program
[07:07] <GenNMX> rubberducky: Are you using Gnome Terminal box?
[07:07] <Megaqwerty> QuixoticJ: cool, good luck!
[07:07] <rubberducky> Oh okay..
[07:07] <rubberducky> haha
[07:07] <rollerskatejamms> rubberducky, its policy.
[07:07] <rubberducky> I was like...dude ...chill
[07:07] <alka_trash> I just posted on Dell's Idea storm for dell to work with gaming on Linux ( I know good luck ) but anyone want to help me get some points?   Thanks in advance  http://www.ideastorm.com/article/show/67072/Work_with_gaming_companies_to_promote_Linux_gaming
[07:07] <rollerskatejamms> rubberducky, its lame, i admit, but deal with it :-P
[07:07] <QuixoticJ> megaqwerty have you ever used the clonedvd or clonecd programs they are windows programs
[07:07] <rubberducky> Yeah I'm using the gnome terminal
[07:07] <drwxr-xr-x> rubberducky: you can change your colors
[07:07] <rollerskatejamms> rubberducky, You could just run xchat in you know, X.
[07:07] <drwxr-xr-x> black on white all the way
[07:07] <Megaqwerty> QuixoticJ: no, I haven't but I assume that they make .iso files, correct?
[07:08] <drwxr-xr-x> irssi is the only irc client you need!
[07:08] <rubberducky> Yeah
[07:08] <rubberducky> :P
[07:08] <GenNMX> rubberducky: Gnome terminal had weird font and colour defaults for me, you probably need to tweak it for your video card + monitor + X general settings
[07:08] <rubberducky> I dont want to download xchat
[07:08] <EADG>  green on black ftw
[07:08] <rubberducky> because i heard
[07:08] <alien8ed> I can't believe all of my files are gone
[07:08] <rubberducky> I heard xchat in the gnome reposit sucks
[07:08] <QuixoticJ> megaqwerty no it just rips the dvd no matter what kind and then tells you to put a blank dvd in and writes a copy of it. then removes the files that it created.
[07:08] <tidrion_> when trying to boot from linux 2.0.20 kernel (I think)
[07:08] <rubberducky> and y9ou need to get it off the website
[07:08] <rubberducky> <<<being lazy
[07:08] <rollerskatejamms> rubberducky, No. xchat-gnome sucks. install xchat
[07:08] <rollerskatejamms> rubberducky, its in the repos
[07:08] <rubberducky> oh
[07:08] <xSUSHix> someone's hacking my http too - there are 2 connections to my httpd and i dont even have a web page set up yet
[07:08] <rubberducky> I like irssi
[07:08] <rubberducky> I just need a cool skin
[07:08] <rubberducky> :p
[07:09] <rubberducky> Its really simple and low on resources
[07:09] <GenNMX> rubberducky: xchat has nothing to do with gnome, except there is a gnome branch
[07:09] <QuixoticJ> megaqwerty makes coping movies very easy I'm wondering if there is similiar functilaity or just the ability to copy movies on here. megaqwerty
[07:09] <tidrion_> when trying to boot from linux 2.0.20 kernel (I think) it fails but if I revert back to 2.0.17 it boots
[07:09] <Punkunity> in beryl whats the difference between emerald, and aquamarine and all that jazz?
[07:09] <Megaqwerty> QuixoticJ: so it does exactly what I just said. Just behind the scenes. k3b also has that ability :-P
[07:09] <Punkunity> anyone?
[07:09] <tomx> anybody can talk to me?
[07:09] <GenNMX> rubberducky: xchat is also very minimalist, except it runs in X. Although personally I use irssi in a screen session, since I switch to different computers as I roam around the house.
[07:10] <rollerskatejamms> Yeah I love xchat.
[07:10] <rollerskatejamms> anyway, why irssi and not bitchx?
[07:10] <drwxr-xr-x> xSUSHix: what is your ip address
[07:10] <rubberducky> How do I install the irssi theme that I have downloaded?
[07:10] <tomx> o...my god
[07:10] <GenNMX> rollerskatejamms: bitchx fails in so many ways. You could even say it fails EPICly.
[07:10] <drwxr-xr-x> rollerskatejamms: bitchx is for retards
[07:10] <rollerskatejamms> why?
[07:10] <xSUSHix> drwxr-xr-x can't you just /whois me
[07:10] <Punkunity> i answered my own question nm
[07:10] <drwxr-xr-x> rubberducky: put it in ~/.irssi/themename.theme
[07:11] <DanaG> bitchx has a bad name, in my opinion.
[07:11] <tomx> oooo
[07:11] <tomx> it's so good
[07:11] <QuixoticJ> megaqwerty sounds good thanks Ill check it out. IThe dvd showed up on my desktop upon insert I right clicked its icon and it had a copy disc option. Is it possible to see which program is handling this copy? Since it was just built right into the system.
[07:11] <drwxr-xr-x> rubberducky: then
[07:11] <drwxr-xr-x> rubberducky: /set theme themename.theme
[07:11] <drwxr-xr-x>  /set theme themename
[07:11] <drwxr-xr-x> might work too
[07:12] <danlock2> okay, does anyone remember me talking about my Computer Defense Competiton
[07:12] <drwxr-xr-x> xSUSHix: THE COMPUTER IS COMING FROM INSIDE THE HOUSE
[07:12] <xSUSHix> oO!
[07:12] <Henica> Hey guys. I think I'm going to need some help in a minute, so I figured I'de come here, heh.
[07:12] <xSUSHix> im on unencrypted wifi =]
[07:12] <Megaqwerty> hm...unknown to me. It could be nautilus (the file manager) which has it's own cd/dvd burning capability akin to the one in windows. (Drag and drop files into the cd making window, select burn)
[07:12] <rubberducky> It didnt work too well
[07:13] <rubberducky> Do I have to reload irssi after that
[07:13] <drwxr-xr-x> nope
[07:13] <Megaqwerty> QuixoticJ:  the only problem I've ever had with k3b is when it wasn't able to access my cd/dvd drive, which is solved by running it as root (i.e. Alt+F2 then typing into the box "gksu k3b" without the quotes) you can also just change the launcher to do this automagically, by right clicking on the launcher, choosing properties, and changing the command to "gksu k3b" (without the quotes)
[07:13] <Hell_Spawn> i have a laptop hard drive that is connected through usb i want to mount because ubuntu is not automounting what is the correct syntax ??
[07:13] <tomx> o ,,,,
[07:13] <insta> anyone know of a good daemon that will broadcast to an icecast server without requiring a local soundcard or loopback cable?
[07:14] <rubberducky> Here we go...That's better.
[07:14] <Flannel> insta: Does mpd not do that?
[07:14] <tomx> go go go
[07:14] <rubberducky> So who wants to help me get my windows filesharing to work :D
[07:14] <odie> my ubuntu isnt automontin any drive
[07:14] <Henica> I'm installing ubuntu for the first time on my laptop. And I just want to make sure that eeverything works right.. heh. only problem is that it's an old version, and I want to connect to the net to upgrade from my laptop. Will it like.. set it up automaticaly? Or will it force me to stay up nother two hours to make it work?
[07:14] <insta> Flannel: I don't know, does it?
[07:14] <jlilly> rubberducky: just look up a samba tutorial
[07:14] <DanaG> insta: is icecast RTSP?
[07:14] <tomx> what?
[07:14] <Megaqwerty> odie: I need you to be more specific than that
[07:14] <crdlb> insta: it certainly does afaik
[07:14] <DanaG> Pulseaudio will do rtsp.
[07:14] <insta> RTSP?
[07:14] <xSUSHix> Hell_Spawn : sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt      or change sdb1 to whatever your device is (hdb1 hdc1 sda1 etc)
[07:15] <rubberducky> !samba
[07:15] <Geoffrey2> what would the key combo be to interrupt the ping command?
[07:15] <tomx> are u come from USA
[07:15] <ubotu> samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[07:15] <jlilly> Henica: mine updated all on its own.
[07:15] <Hell_Spawn> thanks
[07:15] <insta> Geoffrey2: ctrl+c
[07:15] <tomx> hehe
[07:15] <Henica> Well that's a good sign, jlilly. I hope it works out for me as well.
[07:15] <Megaqwerty> odie: is it a partition, a usb drive, etc.
[07:15] <tomx> a usb drive,etc
[07:15] <odie9999> usb drive and cds
[07:15] <Geoffrey2> ok, thanks....I keep thinking ctrl-z, which obviously does something completely different in linux
[07:15] <tomx> yes
[07:15] <Henica> I have to have this PC for work tomorrow, and Windows is being crappy, per usual. ;p
[07:15] <tomx> ok
[07:16] <mikey_sd> anybody use ntfs-3g?
[07:16] <tomx> i know
[07:16] <tomx> haha
[07:16] <Megaqwerty> mikey_sd: yes, it works very well
[07:16] <Megaqwerty> (for me at least)
[07:16] <mikey_sd> yes it does
[07:16] <Hell_Spawn> sorry to bother again
[07:16] <EADG> Is there a way to grep throught every command? ex to find every instance of stat... nstat, netstat, bmstat, etc.
[07:16] <stevenrushing> quick question... is there a way to search these chats?  a week ago i had a problem, and someone helped me fix it, and i forgot what we did.
[07:16] <mikey_sd> logs
[07:16] <jlilly> stevenrushing: If you log them...
[07:17] <stevenrushing> that was my first time on irc... =)
[07:17] <QuixoticJ> i have a bad harddrive in my system. I'm not sure if its totally dead or just alot of bad sectors on it. It makes my linux load time really long since it has to say input/output error on the drive over and over again with different numbers or something along those lines of an error. Is it possible for me to disable that in linux so it ignores the drive completely and just runs normally ?
[07:17] <jlilly> heh. oops!
[07:17] <xSUSHix> stevenrushing : if your client logs your chats - check preferences
[07:17] <Megaqwerty> odie9999: you need to go to System>Preferences>Removable Drives and Media
[07:17] <tomx> :)
[07:17] <mikey_sd> many clients have logging turned off by default
[07:17] <tomx> :(
[07:17] <tomx> :~
[07:17] <insta> Flannel: do you have any experience with mpd?
[07:17] <Megaqwerty> odie9999: you will find your answers there
[07:17] <tomx> :)
[07:17] <Madpilot> tomx, are you a bot, or just a human acting like a twit?
[07:17] <underzr0> Ello!
[07:17] <mikey_sd> ;)
[07:17] <disinterested> whats the command to install mplayer?
[07:17] <stevenrushing> yes, just saw it is turned off by default...
[07:18] <odie9999> megaquerty: i have tried that
[07:18] <stevenrushing> i guess that means there isn't a community log somewhere
[07:18] <mikey_sd> bummer, then.
[07:18] <crdlb> stevenrushing: this channel is publicly logged
[07:18] <tomx> Madpilot:
[07:18] <Megaqwerty> disinterested: sudo aptitude install mplayer
[07:18] <underzr0> D:

[07:18] <tomx> Madpilot:what is twit?
[07:18] <Megaqwerty> odie9999: and the correct boxes are checked then?
[07:18] <disinterested> ive done that one and i dont have any config files for it
[07:19] <Madpilot> tomx, a 'twit' is someone doing stupid things - like spamming a busy IRC channel.
[07:19] <odie9999> megaqerty: yep, and i haven find any other case on the web
[07:19] <stevenrushing> um, ubuntu-x-2007?
[07:19] <HLM> tomx: Twit = ID10T
[07:19] <tomx> o ,sorry...
[07:19] <stevenrushing> what is the file name for this room?
[07:19] <drwxr-xr-x> tomx: get a keyboard and stop t9
[07:19] <Megaqwerty> well...type sudo mount -a
[07:20] <Megaqwerty> odie9999: is there an error in the output?
[07:20] <tomx> i just play with myself ,
[07:20] <tomx> are u admin?
[07:20] <crdlb> stevenrushing: ubuntu-date.html
[07:20] <odie9999> megaqwerty: i can manually mount them
[07:20] <justin_> I'm having trouble installing VMWare Server on Ubuntu
[07:20] <drwxr-xr-x> tomx: THE MACHINE IS COMING FROM INSIDE THE HOUSE
[07:20] <disinterested> when im trying to edit the conf files for mplayer useing sudo gedit ~/.mplayer/gui.conf  it says theres no files in the folder
[07:21] <crdlb> stevenrushing: ubuntu-x-date is #ubuntu-x
[07:21] <Megaqwerty> !offtopic | tomx
[07:21] <ubotu> tomx: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[07:21] <odie9999> megaquerty: but my sister is learning linux and i she cant
[07:21] <Hell_Spawn> sorry had to server a customer how do i figger out what a usb hdd is detecting as E.g /dev/hda1 .... sdb1 etc
[07:21] <justin_> It can't find some modules or something
[07:21] <martman> justin_ funny i _just_ did that
[07:21] <fusion> #ubuntu
[07:21] <gonnaeatthat> hey guys what is a good theme manager for compiz? i tried gnome-look to load some themes but they all require beryl emerald.
 did what?
[07:21] <Megaqwerty> odie9999: then you could create a script that she can double click on to mount them. ( it's a dirty hack, but I can't see your computer, and thus have no idea what the problem is)
[07:22] <martman> justin_ installed vmware server
[07:22] <crimsun> Hell_Spawn: dmesg.  All USB HDs will be mass storage and thus SCSI, so they'll be /dev/sdX
[07:22] <bimberi> justin_: feisty? if so, you can install it via Applications -> Add/Remove...
[07:22] <justin_> Ok how do I do it then in fiesty 64 bit
[07:22] <blenna> i want to run fsck on my drives. i  booted into the live cd; what options do i need to run a full scan of my drives for fsck?
[07:22] <odie9999> megaqwerty: mmm thats right,
[07:22] <justin_> I can install server?
[07:22] <justin_> that way
[07:22] <crdlb> gonnaeatthat: you can install a special version of emerald that will make emerald work with compiz
[07:22] <justin_> how?
[07:22] <bimberi> justin_: sorry, not sure about 64bit.  yes, server
[07:22] <martman> justin_ not sure about that. i did plain old x86
[07:22] <Megaqwerty> odie9999: if you would join me in a private chat, we can compose a script together. (I don't want to flood the channel with our code)
[07:22] <eyequeue> i've got a question, about the bash 3.2-0ubuntu7 (aka 3.2.13(1)-release)
 thanks
[07:23] <gonnaeatthat> crdlb, that available through synaptic or do i need to load automatix or something
[07:23] <crdlb> gonnaeatthat: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2538501
[07:23] <tomx> ooooo,i just want to chat....
[07:23] <crdlb> gonnaeatthat: it's a couple of .debs
[07:23] <Flannel> gonnaeatthat: stay faaar away from automatix
[07:23] <gonnaeatthat> okay
[07:23] <justin_> VMWare player is the only one listed
[07:23] <gonnaeatthat> lol flannel why?
[07:23] <drwxr-xr-x> Flannel: what's wrong with a-utomatix ?
[07:23] <Flannel> !automatix | gonnaeatthat
[07:23] <tomx> Madpilot:can u give me a Chatroom?
[07:23] <ubotu> gonnaeatthat: Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[07:23] <strabes> because it breaks the upgrade path
[07:23] <crdlb> because it's the devil
[07:23] <Flannel> drwxr-xr-x: thats for you too
[07:23] <gonnaeatthat> okay won't do it
[07:23] <blenna> in other words, what switches do i use for fsck to run a through scan?
[07:23] <gonnaeatthat> if it kills my laptop like beryl did im a no for that then
[07:23] <bimberi> justin_: in add/remove... ?
[07:24] <eyequeue> why is /etc/bash.logout not working, as mentioned near the end of bash(1)?  what do i need to do differently?  are my perms right?
[07:24] <strabes> here's how you can do everything automatix does: sudo aptitude install ubuntu-restricted-extras flashplugin-nonfree
[07:24] <fusion> Hi guys,
[07:24] <drwxr-xr-x> satanic automatix works great for me
[07:24] <eyequeue> -rw-r--r-- 1 root root   6 2007-05-08 06:53 /etc/bash.logout
[07:24] <Megaqwerty>  I've been getting this error lately: "Couldn't load driver ALSA: dsnd_pcm_open(hw:0): Device or resource busy" any idea how to fix it, or its counterpart: "Couldn't load driver OSS: RageSound_OSS: Couldn't open /dev/dsp: Device or resource busy" ?
[07:24] <crdlb> gonnaeatthat: but those emerald packages have nothing to do with automatix :)

[07:24] <bimberi> justin_: hmm, give me a minute
[07:24] <gonnaeatthat> what about skype cani install without automatix?
[07:24] <EADG> Is there a way to grep throught every command? ex to find every instance of stat... nstat, netstat, bmstat, etc.

[07:25] <napkin> hey, anyone know how i would prevent vmware server from starting at boot?
[07:25] <Flannel> gonnaeatthat: you can install *everything* without automatix.  Don't be silly.
[07:25] <fusion> How come when i switch to a different desktop workspace all my icons and tool bars disappear?
[07:25] <odie9999> megaqwerty: yep (control+c) jeje
[07:25] <mikey_sd> rubberducky: what's the prob?
[07:25] <rubberducky> Anyone have any experience getting file sharing to work between windows boxes and an ubuntu box?
[07:25] <Megaqwerty> lol
[07:25] <rollerskatejamms> Well, here I am on irssi now.
[07:25] <gonnaeatthat> flannel im new to this ball game
[07:25] <mikey_sd> a bit
[07:25] <gonnaeatthat> i had a bad experience with beryl in dapper and never loaded it again on my laptop
[07:25] <gonnaeatthat> :)
[07:25] <drwxr-xr-x> does Vista even do windows file sharing as we understand it
[07:25] <napkin> rubberducky: a little.  feisty?  have you installed the samba package?
[07:25] <justin_> The prebuilt modules are missing and I get Error 1 and Error 2 durring install
[07:25] <eyequeue> basically i want to do a "clear" in that file, but even "/usr/bin/clear" in that file, thinking maybe it loses $PATH by then(?) doesn't work
[07:26] <rollerskatejamms> ok so, i know this was already discussed, but who can reccomend a good irssi theme for me?
[07:26] <rubberducky> mikey_sd, I installed samba...and my computer sees the windows box. But when I go to connect to the box, it doesn't display the files...or folders...just shows an empty folder
[07:26] <odie9999> i dont know how to join a private chat
[07:26] <justin_> of course thats using the tar.gz
[07:26] <stevenrushing> thank you very much.  i downloaded like 10 days worth, did a beagle search, and found my name!
[07:26] <eyequeue> it *does* work as ~/.bash_logout btw, but i want this system-wide, not something per-user
[07:26] <Henica> okay, I need help now. xD
[07:26] <xSUSHix> odie9999 : /msg <user> <message>
[07:26] <mikey_sd> have you set user security in samba.conf?
[07:26] <Megaqwerty> odie9999: are you registered with nickserv?
[07:26] <Henica> "apm: BIOS not found"
[07:26] <rubberducky> napkin, yes i did
[07:27] <tidrion_> are errors on boot logged anywhere?
[07:27] <bimberi> justin_: make sure you have "All available applications" set next to "Show:" at the top right
[07:27] <rollerskatejamms> tidrion_: somewhere in /var/log probably
[07:27] <gonnaeatthat> ubuntu chat room is seriously better than microsoft corporate support
[07:27] <napkin> rubberducky: don't bother messing with smb.conf.  just go to preferences -> administration -> shared folders.  all you have to do after that is run 'sudo smbpasswd -a <nameofyouruser>' at a terminal.
[07:27] <EADG> rollerskatejamms: try /ignore #ubuntu joins parts quits  to slow the scroll
[07:27] <eyequeue> odie, also, the   /query othernick   command may be what you are looking for
[07:27] <Megaqwerty> !register | odie9999

[07:27] <gonnaeatthat> lol even with a company investing over 40 million in windows i can come on here get q's answered faster
[07:27] <eyequeue> odie9999, rather
[07:27] <justin_> Ya I did that
[07:27] <rollerskatejamms> EADG: huh?
[07:27] <drwxr-xr-x> gonnaeatthat: there is a #vista channel on freenode
[07:27] <Henica> I just installed Ubuntu 5.10 - And it loaded and said - [4295321.932000]  apm: BIOS not found - Help?
[07:28] <napkin> rubberducky: er, i meant system -> preferences -> shared folders.
[07:28] <gonnaeatthat> lol drw if my corporation ran vista we would no longer be the #1 candy company in the world :)
[07:28] <crdlb> Henica: 5.10? are you sure?
[07:28] <tidrion_> anyway to recompress your linux kernel?
[07:28] <rollerskatejamms> Hey how can I impliment a framebuffer on the terminal, so that I can have a 1280x800 terminal instead of the tiny one
[07:28] <justin_> It's not prebuilt for 64 bit but there is modules for it. I still have to download it to install manually
[07:28] <Henica> *nods* Old CD, crdlb
[07:28] <EADG> rollerskatejamms: in irssi, gets rid of the annoying join & quit msgs.
[07:28] <rollerskatejamms> rollerskatejamms: I mean on the regular terminal that you get with ctrl-alt-f1
[07:28] <tidrion_> my system keeps saying that the compression is invalid
[07:28] <rubberducky> napkin, the problem isn't me accessing the ubuntu box..
[07:28] <crdlb> Henica: install a newer version
[07:28] <Flannel> rollerskatejamms: a vga= option in your boot parameters
[07:28] <crdlb> breezy is unsupported
[07:28] <strabes> rollerskatejamms: with a vga grub boot flag
[07:28] <rubberducky> it is the ubuntu box retrieving files from the windows box
[07:28] <napkin> rubberducky: oh :)
[07:28] <justin_> vmware-config.pl just returns errors when it compiles and I have make and gcc installed
[07:28] <eyequeue> anyone have any odeas on getting a system-wide /etc/bash.logout working, as mentioned near the end of the bash manpage?  it fails with feisty's bash, anyone care to test it on other versions?
[07:28] <drwxr-xr-x> rubberducky: vista or XP
[07:28] <Henica> I was going to upgrade once I got this working on the net, crdlb
[07:28] <tidrion_> 0
[07:29] <rubberducky> xp
[07:29] <bimberi> justin: it's available - see here: http://archive.canonical.com/pool/main/v/vmware-server/
[07:29] <tidrion_> 3
[07:29] <crdlb> Henica: it's a long upgrade path to feisty
[07:29] <rubberducky> The computer sees the xp box...but wont show the files in the shared folder
[07:29] <tidrion_> my system keeps saying that the compression is invalid
[07:29] <Jas1> Does youtube work well on ubuntu?
[07:29] <rollerskatejamms> Flannel: strabes: ok but how do I figure out what vga option to use?
[07:29] <Flannel> rollerskatejamms: vga=ask ;)
[07:29] <justin_> Jasl yes
[07:29] <xSUSHix> Jasl : ???? youtube is a web page
[07:29] <Henica> crdld, I need this PC to work in about 6 hours. What would you suggest?
[07:29] <Flannel> rollerskatejamms: then after that, go back and set it to something you know
[07:29] <xSUSHix> is YouTube a program ?
[07:29] <rubberducky> drwxr-xr-x, xp
[07:30] <rollerskatejamms> Flannel: nice thanks
[07:30] <phixxor> hey sup, I'm trying to do X11 forwarding with ssh, but I just learned how to do ssh today so I'm probably doing something wrong. I'm able to get the remote connection by doing "ssh -X<EMAIL_ADDRESS>but when I do xeyes, I get "Error: Can't open display:" what am I doing wrong?
[07:30] <bimberi> justin_: I had read that it was in Add/Remove... - perhaps misread :|
[07:30] <strabes> rollerskatejamms: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Grub_configure_examples#Vga_-_Resolution_settings
[07:30] <Jas1> xshshix: it needs ad-ons and stuff
[07:30] <crdlb> Henica: how fast is your net connection?
[07:30] <eyequeue> Jas1, you want to configure your browser to support flash of course
[07:30] <drwxr-xr-x> rubberducky: who knows.  you might have goofy firewall settings on your XP box, or maybe a machine on your net thinks it is the master browser, or 10 different other things
[07:30] <Henica> crdlb Not that fast, plus, I don't think I can burn a CD on my desktop.
[07:30] <bimberi> Jas1: works fine with the flashplugin in feisty, edgy-backports and dapper-backports
[07:30] <fierycleric> eyequeue: on my bash man it only mentions ~/.bash_logout
[07:30] <Henica> (If that's what you were going for.)
[07:31] <rubberducky> Grr
[07:31] <crdlb> Henica: it is indeed
[07:31] <nxvl> hi. im trying to install ubuntu via netboot, but i'm having problems with dhcp, are they changes in the process or configuration?
[07:31] <budluva> can someone help me here, i have an x264 sample here that will play out of the box in vlc on my laptop, but on my desktop i can see the first frame and thats it, audio is fine, no skipping or anything
[07:31] <rubberducky> drwxr-xr-x, I backed up all my stuff to that machine before I installed feisty
[07:31] <eyequeue> fierycleric, which version?  dapper etc
[07:31] <mikey_sd> rubberducky: u could also try http://www.ntfs-3g.org/
[07:31] <rubberducky> I need the stuff back:/
[07:31] <drwxr-xr-x> phixxor: try -Y
[07:31] <fierycleric> eyequeue: dapper
[07:31] <crdlb> I certainly have no idea why breezy might be broken
[07:31] <justin_> Well bimberi if this means anything to you the Christian Version of Ubuntu is not available in 64 bit so I decided to use convert_to_ubuntu_christian_edition_feisty.tar.gz and it worked
[07:31] <Henica> crdlb, perhaps I can make this work and then use another work computer to burn it. But I need this to work tonight.
[07:31] <tidrion_> vmlinuz-2.6.20-15-386
[07:31] <rubberducky> When connecting the box named "scott" I get "Sorry, couldn't display all the contents of "Windows Network: scott"."
[07:31] <justin_> 64 bit christian edition
[07:31] <rubberducky> But the permissions are set on the xp box
[07:31] <tidrion_> is there anything I can do to update or change vmlinuz-2.6.20-15-386
[07:31] <drwxr-xr-x> what does the christian edition have
[07:32] <tidrion_> my system fails to unzip or decompress vmlinuz-2.6.20-15-386 on boot
[07:32] <drwxr-xr-x> i should make a Mormon edition
[07:32] <drwxr-xr-x> rubberducky: there's logs you can look at
[07:32] <eyequeue> fierycleric, line 4845 of the feisty man page, waaaay down in the FILES section of the man page, 99%
[07:32] <drwxr-xr-x>  /var/log/samba/ i think?
[07:32] <rubberducky> okay...
[07:32] <rubberducky> I'm just saying Sorry, couldn't display all the contents of "Windows Network: scott".
[07:32] <drwxr-xr-x> look at nmbd.* too
[07:32] <rubberducky> I get that when it won't connect
[07:33] <drwxr-xr-x> yeah there can be 80 different things going wrong, debugging samba remotely is hard
[07:33] <fierycleric> eyequeue: ok  must be new
[07:33] <bimberi> justin_: it's of interest, but that only, thanks :)
[07:33] <phixxor> drwxr-xr-x: it still doesn't work : (
[07:33] <rubberducky> Maybe i'll just burn everything ot a cd
[07:33] <rubberducky> :/
[07:33] <rubberducky> Lame
[07:33] <drwxr-xr-x> phixxor: ssh -X -v
[07:33] <drwxr-xr-x> -v for verbose mode
[07:33] <justin_> I figured that had nothing to do with it exept that all my software thinks it's running on an 32 bit os
[07:33] <eyequeue> fierycleric, what i'm trying to accomplish is clear the console screen upon users logging out (/usr/bin/clear) so there's no "sensitive" things left around after they walk away
[07:34] <drwxr-xr-x> phixxor: also forwarding X might be turned off on the destination machine, check out /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[07:34] <phixxor> alrighty
[07:34] <Henica> crdlb, is there any way to make 5.10 work so I can have this for work in the morning, or am I screwed?
[07:34] <NETWizz> Wow
[07:34] <NETWizz> how did Ubuntu get so many people?

[07:34] <NETWizz> Looks like maybe the busiest channel
[07:34] <drwxr-xr-x> NETWizz: magic
[07:34] <fierycleric> eyequeue: how do they login ?
[07:34] <NETWizz> Yet it is the worst distro
[07:34] <Geoffrey2> is there an apt-get install flag that you can use to also install recommended packages?
[07:34] <NETWizz> Just kidding
[07:34] <bimberi> argh, the nick drwxr-xr-x is messing with my mind :/   :)
[07:34] <crdlb> Henica: I don't have a clue, I didn't use ubuntu until dapper because I thought it was terrible
[07:34] <drwxr-xr-x> NETWizz: i will send your slackware boot floppies
[07:34] <insta> Geoffrey2: install with aptitude instead
[07:34] <Jas1> What is a distro?
[07:34] <rubberducky> Hey mikey_sd , for that ntfs driver.,.
[07:35] <rubberducky> Do I install Dapper or Edgy?
[07:35] <rubberducky> Since I'm using feisty?
[07:35] <drwxr-xr-x> Geoffrey2: you might try aptitude instead of apt-get
[07:35] <NETWizz> Um, 775, floppies?
[07:35] <NETWizz> Erry
[07:35] <NETWizz> 755 Floppies?
[07:35] <eyequeue> fierycleric, username enter password enter, at a console prompt (no X)  like tty1 through tty6 (alt-ctrl-1 type thing on your machine)
[07:35] <unimatrix9> hello all
[07:35] <NETWizz> drxwr-xr-x, can I call you 755?
[07:36] <drwxr-xr-x> NETWizz: only if you install automatix
[07:36] <phixxor> drwxr-xr-x: /etc/ssh/sshd_config is emptyt...
[07:36] <budluva> can someone help me here, i have an x264 sample here that will play out of the box in vlc on my laptop, but on my desktop i can see the first frame and thats it, audio is fine, no skipping or anything
[07:36] <eyequeue> fierycleric, so "exit" will lof them out, but i'd like it to auto-run "clear" leaving that tty in a pristine state
[07:36] <unimatrix9> i really need an program that can "roll back" or "freeze" an ubuntu installation , for school and kiosk use, all tips are welcome!
[07:36] <eyequeue> s/lof/log/
[07:36] <rollerskatejamms> Flannel: Ok that vga thing was nice, but in slackware I could set the specific resolution of the terminal.

Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe

[07:36] <drwxr-xr-x> phixxor: on the destination and uh... whatever you call the non destination machine?
[07:36] <jlilly> urg. trying to load OS X in a VM is a huge pain.
[07:37] <fierycleric> eyequeue: ok have you looked at getty ?
[07:37] <Flannel> rollerskatejamms: you do that via the vga option, certain numbers are certain resolutions
[07:37] <NETWizz> Oh
[07:37] <budluva> !x264
[07:37] <NETWizz> I got my system configure well
[07:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about x264 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:37] <C> sup guys, im back and i have a few questions
[07:37] <unimatrix9> i really need an program that can "roll back" or "freeze" an ubuntu installation , for school and kiosk use, all tips are welcome!
[07:37] <rollerskatejamms> Flannel: The vga=ask was only prompting me for like 80x60 and stuff like that, which I believe is charecter count.
[07:37] <C> my batteries on my bluetooth mouse died, and apparently it does not re-connect automatically..
[07:37] <insta> unimatrix9: virtual machines + thin clients?
[07:37] <rollerskatejamms> C: press the connect button on the bottom?
[07:37] <C> i was wondering if anyone knew what i should do to get it to quickly re-scan and re-connect
[07:37] <C> ??
[07:37] <drwxr-xr-x> unimatrix9: what do you mean?  you could install ubuntu... and kill off the update manager
[07:37] <jlilly> unimatrix9: vmware... just run a virtualized copy of ubuntu
[07:37] <QuixoticJ> im very desperate to know what is handling the default dvd / cd coping of ubuntu when I just right click the disc and I get a copy option. I just tested it and I am very amazed and must know how the heck its doing it so good with something just built in like that.
[07:37] <C> yea..roller.. did that
[07:37] <fierycleric> eyequeue: you could a very big /etc/issue file
[07:37] <drwxr-xr-x> unimatrix9: then it'll never update ever again!
[07:37] <eyequeue> fierycleric, yeah, though not tonight.  do you kind of have a feel for what "clear" in ~/.bash_logout would do for you, logging out of console on tty1 as your user
[07:38] <eyequeue> fierycleric, lol, true
[07:38] <Flannel> rollerskatejamms: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Grub_configure_examples#Vga_-_Resolution_settings  someone gave that link
[07:38] <crdlb> QuixoticJ: it's using nautilus-cd-burner
[07:38] <phixxor> drwxr-xr-x: Let's call them iMac for the one doing the ssh, and destination for the one i'm sshing into
[07:38] <NETWizz> Audacity with lame, Gnomad 2 mp3 player, filezilla, firefox2, google earth, skype, vmware, audio tag utility, VLC, codecs, Microsoft Office, Dvd Decrypter, Dvd Shrink, Avant Window Navigator, Beryl, Gaim, and Acrobat reader
[07:38] <crdlb> which just runs cdrecord at some level
[07:38] <NETWizz> How did I do?
[07:38] <drwxr-xr-x> nautilus-cd-burner handles demuxing DVDs ?
[07:38] <phixxor> drwxr-xr-x: the iMac has the empty file
[07:38] <fierycleric> eyequeue: i see what you are trying to do....
[07:38] <C> anyone?
[07:38] <NETWizz> I also installed Crossover, Open Office, NTFS3G
[07:39] <EADG> rollerskatejamms: vga=791 is 1200x800, thats the only one i know.
[07:39] <eyequeue> fierycleric, once you mentioned /etc/issue, i could tell you did :)
[07:39] <Flannel> !away > azteech
[07:39] <QuixoticJ> i dont know what demuxing means but it seems to be making perfectly fine copies of my dvds im trying it right now.
[07:39] <NETWizz> and K3B and Azureus
[07:39] <NETWizz> I think Ubuntu Kicks ass
[07:39] <rollerskatejamms> Flannel: I need 1280x800 :-P
[07:39] <drwxr-xr-x> phixxor: so on iMac, is there anything like ForwardX11 No in /etc/ssh/ssh_config ?
[07:39] <Vistasux> how do i uninstalll apache2 from console?
[07:39] <schueler> hi
[07:39] <NETWizz> I hve more software on my ubuntu machine than Windows
[07:39] <QuixoticJ> this is so amazing i dont need some fancy dvd cloning program im freaking out here.
[07:39] <C> anyone know what i should do?
[07:39] <Flannel> rollerskatejamms: I'm not sure widescreen framebuffers exist.  Heh.
[07:39] <insta> QuixoticJ: do you ever work with ISO files?
[07:39] <NETWizz> ANd unlike Windows, Ubuntu doesn't feel the need to start 300 things at startup
[07:39] <rollerskatejamms> Flannel: grr.
[07:39] <budluva> Vistasux: sudo apt-get remove apache2
[07:39] <EADG> rollerskatejamms: vga=791 is 1200x800, thats the only one i know.
[07:39] <drwxr-xr-x> QuixoticJ: you need more excitement
[07:39] <C> i dont know what to do to reconnect my bluetooth
[07:39] <schueler> fuck you
[07:39] <eyequeue> azteech, ask the bot about !away and !repeating ;-)
[07:39] <Flannel> Vistasux: Feisty or Edgy/Dapper?

[07:40] <carbine> Hello.
[07:40] <QuixoticJ> insta but this isnt needing an iso or anything im jsut right clicking the dvd and boom copy right there.
[07:40] <C> i was wondering if anyone knew what i should do to get it to quickly re-scan and re-connect
[07:40] <insta> QuixoticJ: check this out ... drop to a terminal, put a CD in ... cat /dev/cdrom > ~/myfile.iso
[07:40] <QuixoticJ> insta is it making isos of the things its coping? or just storing them tempoarily some where?
[07:40] <Flannel> Vistasux: sudo apt-get remove --purge apache2 apache2.2-common apache2-mpm-worker

[07:41] <QuixoticJ> insta where can I read bout this built in burning software im so amazed I need to know what its using.
[07:41] <insta> QuixoticJ: I don't know
[07:41] <drwxr-xr-x> phixxor: on the destination machine, then restart ssh, if you can
[07:41] <eyequeue> cva, forgive my nosiness, but what use is bluetooth acomplishing there for you?  hardware i mean
[07:41] <Flannel> Vistasux: please don't paste.  Do you have another package manager running?
[07:41] <insta> Why do you need to know what it's using?
[07:41] <phixxor> drwxr-xr-x: k I have to leave
[07:41] <carbine>  I have Feisty installed, and am using a Broadcom wireless card which honestly seems to work right out of the box. I want to use Wifi-Radar to connect to WPA networks, but I'm not sure what to put for the driver in it. WPA supplicant is installed..
[07:41] <NETWizz> Just asking
[07:41] <eyequeue> C not cva, sorry
[07:41] <rollerskatejamms> Flannel: you're right it doesn't work. I guess I'll try 1024x768
[07:41] <drwxr-xr-x> phixxor: also make sure you ssh -v , and see if there's anything more descriptive in your error messages
[07:41] <NETWizz> sort of a survey
[07:41] <QuixoticJ> this is amazing I thought I was going to have to hunt around for dvd burning software to make movie copies.
[07:41] <C> cva?
[07:41] <Vistasux> yes
[07:41] <Vistasux> and sorry for pastin
[07:41] <NETWizz> Use DVD Decrypter
[07:41] <Gulpi> hi
[07:41] <Gulpi> hi
[07:41] <Gulpi> hi
[07:41] <C> i just had my BT working a while ago, but when my batteries in the mouse died, the mouse once i put the batteries back in , did not re-connect
[07:42] <C> DVD Decrypter is mazing!
[07:42] <C> too bad its not in development any more
[07:42] <eyequeue> C ... (xchat converted that to "cva" before) forgive my nosiness, but what use is bluetooth acomplishing there for you?  hardware i mean
[07:42] <Gulpi> germany
[07:42] <Flannel> Vistasux: You'll need to wait for that to finish (or close it if its not doing anything) before using apt-get
[07:42] <C> mouse / keyboard
[07:42] <Vistasux> can i reinstall apache2 on top of php5?
[07:42] <unimatrix9> i really need an program that can "roll back" or "freeze" an ubuntu installation , for school and kiosk use, all tips are welcome!
[07:42] <Gulpi> fuck you
[07:42] <carbine>  What do I put for driver under WPA in Wifi Radar?
[07:42] <Flannel> Vistasux: Eh?  What?  Yes.  Notreally "ontop"
[07:42] <QuixoticJ> netwizz I dont think i need it. somehow the built in burning is making copies of the movies.
[07:42] <insta> unimatrix9: are you even there or just a bot?
[07:42] <C> my keyboard is still working, but when the batt's on the mouse died , after putting fresh batteries in, it wont reconnect

[07:43] <C> i got it working
[07:43] <C> lil magic
[07:43] <C> :O
[07:43] <C> :)
[07:43] <telejedi> how can i best backup my system - feisty ???
[07:43] <BHSPitMonkey> ty tonyyarusso
[07:43] <unimatrix9> insta : thats an fresh ubuntu install , then some program like deep freeze, that preserves your install, so it does not get messed up, and on reboot everything is as it was
[07:43] <eyequeue> C congrats, what was the fix?
[07:43] <fah> does anyone know how to get /etc/network/interfaces automatically read upon inserting a wireless card?
[07:44] <Flannel> Vistasux: "apache2" didn't remove anything important.  You need to remove "apache2.2-common", why are you shuffling all this stuff?
[07:44] <fah> or is that beyond the scope of this channel?
[07:44] <insta> unimatrix9: ok, how many machines are you talking about using here?
[07:44] <Flannel> !enter | C
[07:44] <ubotu> C: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[07:44] <unimatrix9> we use for windows deep freeze , or reborn cards
[07:44] <drwxr-xr-x> telejedi: do you have a cd burner?  do you have an external drive?  tape drive?
[07:44] <unimatrix9> school project ( many pc' s )
[07:44] <QuixoticJ> netwizz dvd decrypter im guessing is to get past commercial dvd anti coping protection type stuff right ?
[07:44] <Vistasux> i was trying to pw protect a dir now its screwed up, and i justy want to reinstall all this crap
[07:44] <Vistasux> Flannel will it work?
[07:44] <Flannel> unimatrix9: have you looked into edubuntu's thinclient thing?
[07:44] <fah> does anyone here know what the /etc/network/interfaces file is?
[07:44] <C> sudo /etc/init.d/bluetooth start
[07:44] <eyequeue> telejedi, "best" is opinion, but i'm a huge fan of "ubiquity" for remote backups ... you might accomplish *your* needs with a dvd burning app though, you know?
[07:44] <NETWizz> Yes, exactly
[07:45] <NETWizz> What else would it be fore?
[07:45] <unimatrix9> hmm, most are stand alone , and yes i looked into that
[07:45] <NETWizz> for
[07:45] <Flannel> Vistasux: why are you wanting to reinstall apache?  (why not just keep installed?)  did you break the configuration?
[07:45] <C> threw that in terminal and got it to go
[07:45] <telejedi> drwxr-xr-x: yes there is a dvd/cd-burner - but i want to sync my sys on another hd ...
[07:45] <fah> does anyone know what the /etc/network/interfaces card is?
[07:45] <Vistasux> yes it wont work now its says internal screw up!
[07:45] <drwxr-xr-x> telejedi: rsync
[07:45] <unimatrix9> And i am not aware that edubuntu has an roll back option...does it?
[07:45] <QuixoticJ> netwizz i was exspecting that. Thats y I was about to start hunting for some program like the one you just mentioned. But I think the built in dvd copy when you right click the movie seems to be doing just that. I dont know how its possible but it seems to be working fine.
[07:45] <Vistasux> now it doesnt work damn
[07:45] <Flannel> Vistasux: sudo apt-get remove --purge apache2 apache2.2-common apache2-mpm-worker
[07:46] <drwxr-xr-x> telejedi: if you want to keep track of the actual diffs between rsynings, look up 'rsync' and 'snapshot'
[07:46] <insta> unimatrix9: the difference between a unix and windows machine is that unix machines don't require things like deepfreeze.  normal users can't make *any* changes to the machine itself
[07:46] <rollerskatejamms> Flannel: Well . . . its no 1280x800 widescreen, but its better then the default. Thanks for your help.
[07:46] <Flannel> Vistasux: then after that's done, reinstall apache2, and apache2-mod-php5
[07:46] <eyequeue> telejedi, ubiquity uses ssh to transmit a gpg-encrypted set of files to a remote server, the only thing that you need to have on the remote and is a ssh-accessible account, if that's what you want to use
[07:46] <carbine>  What do I put under "Driver" in Wifi Radar for WPA?
[07:46] <Jas1> Does Mcafee Security work in ubuntu?
[07:46] <rollerskatejamms> Jas1: AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
[07:46] <Jas1> probably not huh?
[07:46] <NETWizz> Quixoticj, Um I doubt the built in copy rips CSS
[07:46] <rollerskatejamms> Jas1: Windows software does not run on ubuntu.
[07:46] <eyequeue> fah, many do, but "man 5 interfaces" can tell you details
[07:46] <Vistasux> dpkg - warning: while removing apache2.2-common, directory `/var/www' not empty so not removed. ,Flannel this is what it said
[07:46] <drwxr-xr-x> Jas1: do they make a linux version, that would rule.
[07:47] <unimatrix9> insta : not true , you can delete the panel, delete the menu, delete programs, although you can restrict that a bit, there are many things , and that why we need an solution to that
[07:47] <Flannel> Vistasux: that's fine.
[07:47] <rollerskatejamms> drwxr-xr-x: how would that rule.
[07:47] <rollerskatejamms> drwxr-xr-x: you dont need it on linux
[07:47] <Jas1> I have a subscription with six months left
[07:47] <pbr503> does anyone know what the /etc/network/interfaces file is?
[07:47] <insta> unimatrix9: no, that's the local user's home folder
[07:47] <insta> that's NOT the machine itsel
[07:47] <rollerskatejamms> Jas1: you dont need it.
[07:47] <rollerskatejamms> exit
[07:47] <balarka> hello
[07:47] <eyequeue> telejedi, oh and yes, rsync is sweet (ubiquity uses the rsync protocol for the actual transfers btw)
[07:47] <balarka> insta: hello
[07:47] <gonnaeatthat> Flannel, i know you hate automatix but if i get it to load a few things then uninstall will i keep the packages i installed with it?
[07:47] <Jas1> rollerskatejamms: that's true
[07:47] <pbr503> no one?
[07:47] <drwxr-xr-x> pbr503: it's a file, what about it
[07:47] <NETWizz> Jas1, it runs on Wine
[07:47] <insta> balarka: sup
[07:47] <Wiseguy> hey guys, is there some sort of ubuntu way of setting up a samba share?
[07:47] <Vistasux> Flannel it says fail
[07:48] <NETWizz> on top of Ubuntu
[07:48] <NETWizz> I am telling you that it runs extrmely well too
[07:48] <QuixoticJ> netwizz is there any way i can verify. information about the built in one. And is dvd decrypter one of the best for doing real straight movie copies? Id like to read about each because I need to have some form of coping setup for my family member and it has to be easy for them to do or ill be forced to install windows for htem =(
[07:48] <unimatrix9> ok, you are right there, i could make more users, so when one is messed up i can use the next...
[07:48] <drwxr-xr-x> gonnaeatthat: it just installs deb files, the deb files will still be on your system somewhere
[07:48] <pbr503> drwx; do you know how to get it read whenever you insert a pcmcia card?
[07:48] <bimberi> Wiseguy: System -> Administration -> Shared Folders
[07:48] <Vistasux> Flannel im screwed if this doesnt work
[07:48] <Flannel> gonnaeatthat: believe so.  But, you still run the risk of it screwing things up, even with just installing "a few things"
[07:48] <Flannel> Vistasux: what error did it give?
[07:48] <telejedi> drwxr-xr-x: thanx - will have a look
[07:48] <Flannel> !paste |  Vistasux
[07:48] <ubotu> Vistasux: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[07:48] <Flannel> Vistasux: paste it there
[07:48] <unimatrix9> good tip, keep on going...:P
[07:48] <Jas1> netwizz: okay
[07:48] <NETWizz> DVD Decrypter is great
[07:48] <gonnaeatthat> ah ill just install the deb files themselves then
[07:48] <insta> unimatrix9: or you could create a user, configure it like you want it, and have a script which restores the home directory on logout
[07:48] <NETWizz> It takes a movie and creates an 8 GB Rip of it
[07:48] <Vistasux> what?
[07:48] <gonnaeatthat> at least i asked before doing so :) rather than get mad at ubuntu
[07:48] <NETWizz> The rip is a .ISO and a .MDS
[07:48] <budluva> can someone help me here, i have an x264 sample here that will play out of the box in vlc on my laptop, but on my desktop i can see the first frame and thats it, audio is fine, no skipping or anything
[07:48] <Vistasux> this is not easy
[07:49] <drwxr-xr-x> that doesn't sound very free software like
[07:49] <NETWizz> There is no encryption or anything
[07:49] <drwxr-xr-x> i'm offended
[07:49] <unimatrix9> yes thats what we want. any how to some where?
[07:49] <Vistasux> please help me flannel
[07:49] <NETWizz> Then I open it in DVD Shrink and Compress it to about 4.36 GB and burn it
[07:49] <Flannel> Vistasux: pastebin the error it gave you.
[07:49] <Ta1> Anybody know of a reader for Linux that reads Tomeraider files?
[07:49] <Vistasux> invoke-rc.d: initscript apache2, action "start" failed.
[07:49] <eyequeue> NETWizz, m d esss?  not m d five?
[07:49] <QuixoticJ> netwizz ya thats too many steps for my family member.
[07:49] <gonnaeatthat> drwxr-xr-x, ever use gdebi installer? that any good?
[07:49] <Flannel> Vistasux: It gave you that error when you removed apache?
[07:49] <danlock2> omg, i hate fedora core 4
[07:50] <mikey_sd> budluva: sounds like a video codec prob. on the desktop
[07:50] <QuixoticJ> netwizz i need some type of way to make it just a few brainless clicks for them. like insert movie copy movie burn movie done.
[07:50] <Vistasux> no when i reinstalled it
[07:50] <drwxr-xr-x> gonnaeatthat: i have no idea what that is.  i install single deb files with sudo dpkg -i filename.deb
[07:50] <gonnaeatthat> ok
[07:50] <_Codeman_> I can't seem to get a program to rip+encode a cd to mp3, I've been trying all day can anyone help me?
[07:50] <Flannel> Vistasux: do "sudo apache2ctl start", what does it say?
[07:50] <budluva> mikey_sd: well how can i re-install my codecs? i dont understand why it wouldn't work on the desktop, both are new feisty installs
[07:50] <eyequeue> NETWizz, md5 is a "hash", commonly used for verifying the integrity of files transferred from an site, like iso files
[07:50] <gonnaeatthat> ill terminal it out :) im jsut trying to find easy ways for new ubuntu users :) terminal is intimidating for the guys i converted
[07:50] <mikey_sd> same version of vlc on both?
[07:51] <pbr503> 755: is that a no?
[07:51] <unimatrix9> thanx for the tips, i will look into them all..
[07:51] <eyequeue> NETWizz, run "md5sum yourisofilenamehere.iso" to see if the output is the same as the .md5 file from the site
[07:52] <Ta1> Any tomeraider readers for LInux?
[07:52] <Jas1> Does anyone play Armagetron Advanced?
[07:52] <Wiseguy> bimberi, is there anyway to make it so i dont need to login?
[07:53] <Vistasux> Flannel, when i type localhost in firefox i see apache2 logo, however when i typr in <IP_ADDRESS> its gives me an error any idea?
[07:53] <rollerskatejamms> Is it possible to set up an automatic nickserv password in irssi?
[07:53] <drwxr-xr-x> why not <IP_ADDRESS>
[07:53] <therealnanotube> Vistasux: it's supposed to be <IP_ADDRESS>
[07:53] <Flannel> Vistasux: because localhost is <IP_ADDRESS>
[07:53] <pbr503> wiseguy; if you have a USB flash drive you can use pam_usb to bypass logins
[07:53] <drwxr-xr-x> what does /etc/hosts say
[07:53] <NETWizz> I know about md5sum
[07:53] <eyequeue> Vistasux, you probably want 127.0.01, not <IP_ADDRESS>
[07:53] <Vistasux> im trying to view this page on apache2 from a differerend cpu on my lan
[07:53] <NETWizz> But what do you want me to check?
[07:53] <eyequeue> Vistasux, you probably want <IP_ADDRESS>, not <IP_ADDRESS> (typo before)
[07:53] <Wiseguy> pbr503, nah i dont want that
[07:53] <bimberi> Wiseguy: Login to Gnome?
[07:53] <nickname> anyone do an install on a fujitsu 3400?
[07:53] <gonnaeatthat> drwxr-xr-x, debi installer automatically does the terminal commands and installs packages pretty neat little tool
[07:53] <drwxr-xr-x> rollerskatejamms: in the 'server' stanza for that network in ~/.irssi/config you put password = "yourmom";
[07:53] <Flannel> Vistasux: that's probably a 192.168.X.X IP then, not <IP_ADDRESS>
