[19:42] <Kuprin> I just fixed everything, so I'm curious how much cooler it's running. Last I checked it on a windows disk it was running 70 degrees, right now it feels more like 40-45 :)
[19:42] <vidak> hi all! I've upgraded a Fujitsu-Siemens laptop to gutsy, and after upgrade grub seems to be disappeared from MBR (after starting a boot menu appears, to choose boot device from C:,floppy, CDROM. When choosing C:, the same menu reappears.). I tried to re-install grub using a live cd and grub-install --root-directory=/media  /dev/hdb (after mounting root into /media of course). After all, the laptop won't boot, but grub-install and plain grub gives no error.
[19:42] <vidak> the HD is all right... Any ideas?
[19:43] <navaburo> jonasj: I am running the one installed by the restricted manager... but then again I did once install the one downloaded from the NVIDIA website

[19:45] <vidak> alonso: mount /cdrom
[19:45] <levander> When you switch network cards in your computer, Ubuntu doesn't just load the correct driver next time you boot?
[19:47] <void^> tafsen: anyway if you need to figure where you set it, run 'cd ~ && grep -R CLASSPATH .', and 'cd /etc && grep -R CLASSPATH .'
[19:47] <Alyxander> levander yup she does
[19:47] <alonso> thnx it seemed to work now

[19:56] <pengudeus> Hello.
[19:57] <pengudeus> Is there an issue with the latest Ubuntu ISO?  Every time I download and burn it ( on multiple computers and multiple platforms ) it seems to be glitchy
[19:57] <ferronica_> anyone here using APC UPS with ubuntu 7.10 gnome ?
[19:57] <new2linx> new2Ubuntu: have you run "sudo alsamixer" and checked to see if anything is muted and if any of the capture devices are checked?
[19:57] <erUSUL> !md5 | pengudeus
[19:57] <ubotu> pengudeus: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows
[19:57] <Sander__> I'm thinking of buying a new notebook with an intel GMZ X3100 video card... when I saw this but report #120834... any idea about the status?
[19:58] <Sander__> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/120834
[19:58] <pengudeus> Thanks
[19:58] <new2Ubuntu> new2linx, I have run sudo alsamixer. but I did run alsamixer by itself
[19:58] <new2Ubuntu> haven't*
[19:58] <ferronica_> enable UPS discharge alarm not working :(
[19:58] <Taggard> Yay
[19:58] <new2linx> new2Ubuntu: are you using alsa or oss within tvime?
[19:59] <Taggard> I decided on what system im going to buy
[19:59] <new2Ubuntu> new2linx, alsa
[19:59] <colourAgga> Hi all.
[19:59] <new2Ubuntu> Um Im not sure :S
[19:59] <colourAgga> I'm having difficulty with my screen resolution using 7.10.
[19:59] <ferronica_> enable UPS discharge alarm not working :(
[19:59] <Taggard> Dell 2.0GHz Dual Core/1GB RAM/128MB VRAM/19"/Ubuntu
[19:59] <new2Ubuntu> My sound settings have most set to Autodetect
[19:59] <colourAgga> It just doesn't switch, even hardcoding out the other resolutions in the Xorg.conf does not help.
[19:59] <_eReN_>  /j #ubuntu/tr
[20:00] <_eReN_>  /j #ubuntu/tr
[20:00] <new2linx> new2Ubuntu: try another program to view your capture card and see if the sound works there, then you know it's tvtime config somewhere.
[20:00] <new2Ubuntu> new2linx, A channel is mute when you see the greyed out MM in the alsamixer column correct?
[20:00] <colourAgga> Brb.
[20:01] <new2linx> new2Ubuntu: when it states MM at the bottom of the column, that's muted.
[20:01] <new2Ubuntu> new2linx, nothing is muted so in all the controls.
[20:01] <new2Ubuntu> I can adjust the sound of the playout by reducing the volume of In-gain
[20:02] <cookie666> I'm new to IRC, can someone point me in the direction of where I can ask someone about RAID installation and GRUB problems?
[20:02] <colourAgga> So, a quick restart of the X does fix the problem but why won't it just work on automode?
[20:02] <maki_maki> any help connecting to a wifi network? i seem to be able to connect to my home network only....other networks show but i cannot connect
[20:02] <ferronica_> anyone here using APC UPS with ubuntu 7.10 gnome ?
[20:02] <DFDZ> i wanna make a crossover connection btween my laptop and my desktop what do i have to do?
[20:02] <Duesentrieb_> cookie666: here, or perhaps in #linux
[20:03] <bulmer> maki_maki-> you can connect to whom?  can you elaborate on your layout?
[20:03] <arcade> Hmf
[20:03] <arcade> My ubuntu is behaving strangely.
[20:04] <bulmer> DFDZ-> you know what a crossover cable does?
[20:04] <arcade> When I type "firefox" in my xterm, it doesn't start.  'ps auxf' shows that '/bin/sh /usr/bin/firefox' is waiting for /bin/pwd (of all things..) to finish.
[20:04] <arcade> If I try to 'kill' the pwd process, nothing happens.  If I kill -9 it, firefox starts.
[20:04] <maki_maki> Ubuntu 7.10, new install, I used fwcutter and wl_apsta.o , ok it connects at home but wont connect to any other network than my home net
[20:05] <John_R> arcade: do you have the security password feature of firefox enabled?
[20:05] <new2linx> new2Ubuntu: have you read the common problems page for tvtime? http://tvtime.sourceforge.net/problems.html
[20:05] <arcade> John_R: No.
[20:05] <John_R> wierd
[20:05] <arcade> John_R: Yes.
[20:05] <bulmer> maki_maki-> whats the any other network? not your own?
[20:05] <DFDZ> yes i know but i dont know where to change subnetmask and IP manual
[20:05] <cookie666> After installing Ubuntu 7.04 on my desktop on which I just put in a RAID5, when I rebooted it gave me "grub read error", when working off of the livecd to set up the RAID to see if that would fix it, it still gives me the same.  I've even tried reinstalling GRUB to the MBR when using the liveCD and still nothing, anyone have anythoughts?
[20:05] <spectre> I don't see the orange progress bar anymore at boot with 7.10
[20:05] <mkz> I'd asked a question a few moments ago when my desktop hung and I needed to reboot, so I may have missed the answer.  The question was: where is it configured in gutsy to automount devices such as cd's, dvd's, memory sticks, etc?
[20:06] <bulmer> DFDZ-> umm..you want a crossover cable or you wanted ip settings?
[20:06] <maki_maki> yes when at work or at friends houses i can see the network but it never connects, then when i get home it automatically connects to my router
[20:06] <ArthurArchnix> mkz: In gconf-editor
[20:06] <arcade> John_R: And, /bin/pwd should just print the working directory and exit .. and it does when I do it manually, but heh .. for some reason it hangs when run through /usr/bin/firefox (which is a shell script, which at some point executes pwd).
[20:06] <opendirectorscut> hi, i am a total ubuntu noob and i wanted to ask if someone can help me: i try to scan for w-lan networks, but I don't find any way to do it.
[20:06] <dissection> When I go into Network Settings to set a static IP, it hangs. How do I fix this? I can't use my WiFi anymore.. It was working fine till a few hours ago
[20:06] <mkz> ArthurArchnix: thank you
[20:06] <Irv> Anyone know any thing about this video card? MSI NX7600GS-TD256 NV 7600GS 256MB AGP Card,   it is suposed to be nVidia 7600 gs
[20:06] <DFDZ> i got a crossovercable ;)
[20:06] <DFDZ> i only need to config Ubuntu
[20:06] <maki_maki> DFDZ: is it cat5e or cat 5
[20:06] <bulmer> maki_maki-> please respond with a prefix nick, or else your responses will be missed
[20:06] <maki_maki> I think crossover is only cat5e
[20:07] <mkz> ArthurArchnix: sorry, wrong channel.  I'm running kubuntu
[20:07] <Sander__>  I saw this bug ( https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/120834 ) on ubuntu launchpad and I was wondering if this was already fixed with some updated drivers?
[20:07] <maki_maki> bulmer: ok thanks
[20:07] <bulmer> DFDZ-> what kind of connectivity you want?
[20:07] <DFDZ> only btween my laptop and my desktop to tranfer files
[20:07] <DFDZ> i think its cat
[20:07] <bulmer> DFDZ -> please respond with a prefix nick, or else your responses will be missed
[20:07] <DFDZ> its an old one a friend gave it to me
[20:08] <Pici> Sander__: Since its marked as confirmed and not fix-released, then yes, its still open.
[20:08] <opendirectorscut> is there someone who can help me with scanning w lan networks.. i don't have any clue how to make it.
[20:08] <timmah> I have xming and putty working but I cannot start firefox because  "Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:". What do I need to do now?
[20:08] <ArthurArchnix> bulmer: How does that work? "nick bulmer:message" or what...
[20:08] <Sander__> Pici: okay.. so don't buy a notebook with this card
[20:08] <bulmer> ArthurArchnix-> just type the nick before you type the rest
[20:08] <dissection> When I go into Network Settings to set a static IP, it hangs. How do I fix this? I can't use my WiFi anymore.. It was working fine till a few hours ago
[20:08] <new2linx> arcade: I know when I need to kill a firefox session cause it's stuck, I issue sudo killall firefix-bin, so maybe to start it use, firefox-bin. but first kill the firefox command
[20:09] <arcade> new2linx: uhm, no.  :P
[20:09] <DFDZ> bulmer -> ok
[20:09] <arcade> new2linx: I'll try debugging the shellscript :P
[20:09] <ArthurArchnix> bulmer: and do you know a way to ignore server messages, like who is entering and leaving the room?
[20:09] <bulmer> DFDZ okay ..what were you after again?
[20:09] <arcade> BLEH.
[20:09] <opendirectorscut> is there anyone who can help me?!
[20:09] <Sander__> new2linx: try alt-F2 and then the command xkill for once... that's even easier ;)
[20:09] <Alyxander> god i hate my life!
[20:10] <Alyxander> sorry venting
[20:10] <arcade> It hangs at the first execution of /bin/pwd for some _obscure_ reason.
[20:10] <new2Ubuntu> new2linx, I thought I was having an Audio issue till now :S . I recompiled alsa .  Will check the site to see if anything could help me thanks
[20:10] <bulmer> ArthurArchnix-> usually /ignore nickofuser  but sometimes clients dont want to cooperate
[20:10] <new2linx> opendirectorscut: ask your question. don't ask if anyone can help you
[20:10] <opendirectorscut> i did
[20:10] <dn4> Anyone know why the legacy Glx driver for gutsy won't work for a Riva TNT2 card and also why Ctl alt f1 won't work to drop you back to console
[20:10] <opendirectorscut> i tried to scan for w lan networks ... i don't know how to do it
[20:10] <Sander__> opendirectorscut: don't ask if you can ask.. just ask your question!
[20:10] <navaburo> I am still having driver/resolution issues. But, I am able to run a TEST that displays the correct resolution _and_ driver.
[20:10] <DFDZ> bulmer i try to make a connection via cross overcable and need to config ubuntu so which configs do i have to do?
[20:10] <ghost> Does anyone know what a .tar is?
[20:10] <Pici> ArthurArchnix: it might be /ignore #ubuntu JOINS QUITS PARTS
[20:10] <Pici> ghost: its a compressed file.
[20:10] <Alyxander> opendirectorscut kde or gnome?
[20:10] <arcade> heh, faulty /bin/pwd actually(!) .
[20:10] <bulmer> DFDZ on ubuntu side or your other pc side?
[20:10] <opendirectorscut> gnome
[20:11] <ghost> thanks!
[20:11] <arcade> If I run it manually, instead of the pwd shell-builtin, it too hangs.
[20:11] <bratliff> linux dc++ , it is in the repositry sp
[20:11] <DFDZ> both gut ubuntu
[20:11] <Alyxander> opendirectorscut does gome have a network manager?
[20:11] <ArthurArchnix> Pici: Nope.
[20:11] <DFDZ> bulmer both got ubuntu
[20:11] <new2linx> opendirectorscut: try  sudo iwlist wlan0 scan IF your interface is wlan0
[20:11] <arcade> Now, how do I freshen the package that contains /bin/pwd, I wonder.
[20:11] <Pici> ArthurArchnix: not sure then, that would work in irssi.
[20:11] <opendirectorscut> yea, but i don't find any function for it
[20:11] <navaburo> When I run displayconfig-gtk, i can enable nvidia (or nv) instead of vesa and set my monitor type and resolution, and test it sucessfully! But it doesnt stay! When I click OK and close the config tool and then reopen it it is back to the defaults!
[20:11] <bulmer> DFDZ okay look in the /etc/network/interfaces file
[20:11] <opendirectorscut> that's my prb
[20:11] <ArthurArchnix> ignore #ubuntu
[20:11] <opendirectorscut> prob
[20:11] <bratliff> tar is like zip in windows
[20:11] <bratliff> archive program
[20:11] <Alyxander> opendirectorscut try kismet
[20:12] <arcade> .. in other words, how do I find what package /bin/pwd belongs to, and then freshen that package (something like rpm -Fvh `rpm -qf /bin/pwd ` - but in apt-speak).
[20:12] <opendirectorscut> isn't it for kde?
[20:12] <Alyxander> oopendirectorscut or will knetmanager work in gnome?
[20:12] <bulmer> ArthurArchnix-> usually /ignore nickofuser  but sometimes clients dont want to cooperate <-- a slash in front of ignore
[20:12] <DFDZ> bulmer thx
[20:12] <new2linx> opendirectorscut: you can find out your wireless interface by issuing iwconfig or ifconfig
[20:12] <opendirectorscut> i am not sure about that
[20:12] <Alyxander> opendirectorscut nope kismet is cl based
[20:12] <juan> how can i get information my memory?e.g type and number of slots aval/used? (without turning my system off)
[20:12] <opendirectorscut> ok thanks
[20:12] <ArthurArchnix> "/help" gives list of commands... I'm new to IRC.
[20:12] <Rogi> i changed video card, how do I change the nvidia driver so it looks at correct PCI slot?
[20:12] <dissection> When I go into Network Settings to set a static IP, it hangs. How do I fix this? I can't use my WiFi anymore.. It was working fine till a few hours ago..
[20:12] <ArthurArchnix> All the messages are distracting though.
[20:12] <opendirectorscut> iwconfig or ifconfig?
[20:12] <new2linx> juan: issue sudo /proc/meminfo
[20:13] <opendirectorscut> something in the shell?
[20:13] <ArthurArchnix> mode
[20:13] <opendirectorscut> i'll try kismet
[20:13] <new2linx> juan: sorry, I meant, cat /proc/meminfo
[20:13] <ArthurArchnix> s
[20:13] <bulmer> dissection-> is your AP dolling out static ip addreses or dynamic?
[20:13]  * Ackdar is having wireless problems. To be more specific, I can't activate it.
[20:14] <dissection> bulmer: Both, but its not getting an IP when I tried with dynamic, though it was working fine till earlier today.
[20:14] <bulmer> Ackdar-> which wifi card do you have? did you load the driver?
[20:14] <juan> new2linx: thx but that just gives memory usage info
[20:14] <Puppy_> When I try to turn off my computer, it hangs at the desktop for a really long time. Does anyone know how to fix this?
[20:14] <dissection> bulmer: And the WiFi light is also off.. I don't know why..
[20:14] <juan> !wifi > Ackdar
[20:14] <bulmer> dissection-> what command did you use to associate to your AP?
[20:14] <new2linx> juanL what about within System, Admin, Hardware or is it System, Pref, Hardware
[20:14] <Ackdar> bulmer, the included drivers with ubuntu work
[20:14] <godzirra> Heya folks.  I've got my sound "working" (i.e. the sondcard is detected, alsamixer shows mixer settings) but no sound is coming out.  Anyone have any suggestions?

[20:15] <Ackdar> juan: been there, done it all, still nothing
[20:15] <bulmer> Ackdar-> so it works..what command you used to test?
[20:15] <new2linx> godzirra: is anything muted within alsamixer?

[20:15] <attilax2000> Xchat -gnome irc chat cannot be installed on your computer type (i386). Either the application requires special hardware features or the vendor decided to not support your computer type ?
[20:16] <bulmer> dissection-> am not familiar with gui's..which network settings you're referrring to?
[20:16] <godzirra> new2linx: headphone, pcm and front are all unmuted.

[20:17]  * ArthurArchnix is reading about irc commands
[20:17] <new2linx> godzirra: what exact sound card are you using?
[20:17] <Ackdar> bulmer: -a        No such device
[20:17] <dissection> bulmer: And my netspeed applet shows I'm connected to wmaster0.. not wlan0

[20:18] <Irv> navaburo I'm looking for info on this MSI card    ,thanks for responding
[20:18]  * ArthurArchnix is hoping someone will type "/msg Arthur Archnix this is a test." without the quotes.
[20:18] <Ackdar> bulmer: eth1 shows up with results
[20:18] <arcade> new2linx / John_R : Okay, this is a new one. :P   I umounted /export (NFS) a couple of days ago.  It's not in /etc/mtab, and Yes, I *have* umounted it.  For some reason, pwd finds this dir, and hangs on it.
[20:18] <arcade> so does an ls /export . :P
[20:18] <Ackdar> bulmer, it does say access point: invalid, though
[20:18] <bulmer> Ackdar-> pastebin the result please so i can see it
[20:18] <dissection> bulmer: Okay.. so what do I do
[20:18] <arcade> and firefox waits for pwd to finish, which tries to check /export ..

[20:19] <new2linx> godzirra: have you gone to the ubuntuforums and read the comprehensive sound guide?
[20:19] <godzirra> Yup.  Thats what I used to compile alsa to begin with.
[20:19] <jeffrey> Can anyone help me with a sound problem
[20:19] <opendirectorscut> hmm .. is there a possibility that kismet runs only via the shell/terminal
[20:19] <bruenig> opendirectorscut, that is all kismet does from what I understand
[20:19] <Viden> Does anyone know why ALSA wouldnt be able to play multiple sound sources on a Creative Audigy LS ... get resource is busy on the 2nd sound source?  (Sorry had to correct the card model)
[20:20] <new2linx> godzirra: you shouldn't have had to compile alsa, that card should just work.

[20:20] <dissection> bulmer: It shows no wireless extensions for wmaster0, and under wlan0 it shows the SSID n other info, but it doesn't have an IP
[20:20] <new2linx> godzirra: you're sure the speakers work, or even the actual hardware port works? you are plugged into the speaker out correct. just checking despite how stupid it sounds.
[20:21] <rukuartic> So I'm planning to install 7.10, but I'm not quite sure what I want to use for a partition layout... Can anyone recommend an alternative to your standard / and /swap?
[20:21] <claybo> Hey everyone.  I installed nfs-kernel-server, I have everything set up in /etc/exports and /etc/hosts.allow (ALL: ALL) but I cannot connect to my machine through NFS.  daemon.log says "authenticated mount request from xxx" but I just get a "not responding" error on the client side.  Any suggestions?
[20:21] <bulmer> dissection-> then use wlan0 and not wmaster0
[20:21] <Ackdar> bulmer, http://rafb.net/p/yPnZ0t60.html
[20:21] <okeefenokee> i'm having a few computers in my local network, all with different names, all given a dynamic ip-number at boot-up. what would be the easiest way of registering all these computers under their name in the network? I'd like to be able to write something like 'ssh okee1' from the okee2-machine, instead of checking out the ip-number of okee1 and entering that in the ssh-command.
[20:21] <bulmer> Ackdar-> let me peek
[20:21] <dissection> bulmer: How? I don't even know what wmaster0 is.. I never set there anytime.. It just mysteriously showed up
[20:21] <Irv> Ok thanks guys and gals
[20:21] <Duesentrieb_> rukuartic: putting some directory on their own partition helps to avoid running out of disk space completely (but makes it more likely to run out of disk space for some things)
[20:22] <new2linx> okeefenokee: easiest is to add each computer to the /etc/hosts file.
[20:22] <jeffrey> Can anyone help me with a sound problem
[20:22] <Duesentrieb_> rukuartic: i like to have /var and /home on serparate partitions
[20:22] <bulmer> Ackdar  so you are using eth1 ? type dhclient eth1
[20:22] <xargon> can someone explain to me how to turn on hardware acceleration for ati?
[20:22] <rukuartic> Duesentrieb_: /var and /home was what I was thinking...
[20:22] <olivier__> hi everybody
[20:22] <new2linx> okeefenokee: next easiest is to setup a WINS server, then last is a dns server.
[20:22] <attilax2000> I went to applications choose add/remove and tried to install xchat but ik got this messag ?
[20:22] <bulmer> Ackdar-> btw, is that your AP?  what is the essid of your AP?
[20:22] <attilax2000> Xchat -gnome irc chat cannot be installed on your computer type (i386). Either the application requires special hardware features or the vendor decided to not support your computer type ?
[20:22] <rukuartic> Duesentrieb_: Lets say I had the sudden urge to change distros... Should I be able to just move my /home partiton around?
[20:22] <okeefenokee> new2linx: But doesn't that demand a fixed ip-number (the hosts-solution)?
[20:22] <new2linx> jeffrey: just ask your question.
[20:22] <attilax2000> how come ?
[20:23] <new2linx> okeefenokee: yes
[20:23] <Duesentrieb_> rukuartic: it might also be nice to make /tmp and/or /tmptmp a symlink to a dir in /var
[20:23] <olivier__> does anybody know how to go from 2.0 to 5.1 ? (yes, i tried the documentation, thanks)
[20:23] <bulmer> dissection-> can you please pastebin your  iwconfig results
[20:23] <godzirra> new2linx: it works currently in windows and worked before in feisty.
[20:23] <godzirra> new2linx: so fairly certain the hardware works :)
[20:23] <dissection> bulmer: I don't have internet connection on the laptop
[20:23] <jeffrey> i have a 5.1 speaker setup only 1 speaker and the sub is working how do i get the whole setup to work
[20:23] <me8myself> hey in ubuntu under visual effects when i try to turn it onto to anything over none i get a popup "the composite exstention is not available" how do i fix that?
[20:24] <bulmer> dissection-> its hard for me to guess...you have to find a way to paste the info i seek to assist you
[20:24] <Duesentrieb_> rukuartic: moving the home partition... well, it depend on wjhat you have on there. you might have distro-specific binaries in your home, etc. or some config settings may rely on the distro-specific location of things. but generally, yes.
[20:24] <okeefenokee> new2linx: That's not an option :( Another option would then be to let one of the computers function as a wins-server, aye?
[20:24] <zcat[1]> If I install a program manually in /opt/, how can I add it to the global menus (I know how to add it to my own menu, but I want to make it accessable for all four users)
[20:24] <Duesentrieb_> rukuartic: it should be failry safe to copy /home to anotehr distro. i would not recommend to *share* it though
[20:24] <new2linx> okeefenokee: why is static ip not an option? Yes, WINS server is next then.
[20:24] <dissection> bulmer: Okay I'll just type it.. wait
[20:24] <Mmjack> Hi. ime having a problem where if i run a .sh file nothing happens. Any ideas.
[20:24] <Whitor> Hi, My Top bar and Bottom bar (panels) in GNOME are not showing up anymore... I get my desktop and icons, but no top or bottom bar... any ideas?
[20:24] <new2linx> jeffrey: I am sorry, I don't have experience with 5.1 sound. have you searched the ubuntuforums.org?
[20:24] <Mmjack> SOrry about a ideotic question but me=linuxnoob
[20:24] <okeefenokee> new2linx: Because the router serving out the ip-numbers is beyond my control
[20:24] <Duesentrieb_> Mmjack: "a" sh file?
[20:25] <jeffrey> new2linx, yes
[20:25] <Mmjack> No
[20:25] <Duesentrieb_> Mmjack: and "nothing" how?
[20:25] <Mmjack> all .sh files
[20:25] <bulmer> Mmjack is that your own script file?  did you write it yourself?
[20:25] <Mmjack> All sh files
[20:25] <Duesentrieb_> Mmjack: well... they might do something and not tell you.
[20:25] <new2linx> okeefenokee: so what! you can hard code I really high IP address for each of your computers.
[20:25] <Duesentrieb_> Mmjack: no error message either?
[20:25] <jeffrey> new2linx,  i think its the sound card drivers... worked fine in windows
[20:25] <Mmjack> And nothing as in nothing visible.
[20:25] <Mmjack> Nothing at all
[20:25] <Duesentrieb_> Mmjack: how do you run them?
[20:25] <Mmjack> Uhh
[20:25] <Mmjack> how am i supposed to
[20:26] <Mmjack> LOl
[20:26] <new2linx> jeffrey: what sound card, have you read the comprehensive sound guide at ubuntuforums
[20:26] <zcat[1]> Mmjack: 'nothing happens' means what? file not found? Permission denied? or really nothing?
[20:26]  * AA is seeing if his new nickname took effect.
[20:26] <bulmer> Mmjack-> where did you get this script? it could have come from a bad guy..and you're sol after..lolz
[20:26] <Duesentrieb_> Mmjack: usually, from the command line
[20:26] <jeffrey> realtek ac97
[20:26]  * AA is disapointed.
[20:26] <rukuartic> Duesentrieb_: If I plan to distro hop, what would you recommend for a layout? I'm planning this to be a desktop, but do a few service type things (LAMP, svn, etc)
[20:26] <Mmjack> Kkk
[20:26] <Mmjack> give me a second
[20:26] <Mmjack> ile try somthing
[20:26] <Mmjack> Check it for obvious ideotic errors
[20:26] <Mmjack> Lol
[20:26]  * ArthurA is testing again
[20:26] <ArthurA> test
[20:27] <okeefenokee> new2linx: Well, from the given ip-numbers I've had a look at, they vary from ??.???.???.72-222 ... it seems to me that the whole range is used
[20:27] <bulmer> Ackdar-> btw, is that your AP?  what is the essid of your AP?
[20:27] <Duesentrieb_> Mmjack: if you just doubleclick them, it will probably open a console and run them in there - but most shell scripts require params, and will simply exit if they don't get any. so the max you see is a flicker.
[20:27] <zcat[1]> Mmjack: usually no output at all means the script went ahead and did whatever it was supposed to do.. and had no problems to report
[20:27] <Ackdar> bulmer: ESSID?
[20:27] <Ackdar> my access point is my router
[20:27] <new2linx> jeffrey: try this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=31829
[20:27] <rukuartic> Mmjack: try "less file.sh"
[20:27] <Mmjack> Oh. ive worked out the problem thanks guys.. Ideot error from my friend
[20:27] <Duesentrieb_> rukuartic: can't tell you really. also depends on the distros. falvors of debian (like ubuntu) should be relatively similar
[20:27] <bulmer> Ackdar-> yes, are you connecting via wifi or ethernet?
[20:27] <Whitor> What is the Terminal command to logout?
[20:27] <Ackdar> dialup
[20:27] <marc_> anyonE running OSX LEopard?
[20:27] <Mmjack> He sent me "His version" of somthing .. Its cl thanks for the help
[20:27] <Whitor> What is the Terminal command to logout of gnome ?
[20:28] <ivan_> hey all! does anybody know of a GOOD tool to draw GUIs for linux?
[20:28] <bruenig> ivan_, gcc?
[20:28] <dissection> bulmer: Btw, isn't there a command to turn on the light of the WiFi? I don't know why its turned off
[20:28] <John_R> ivan_: tuxpaint?
[20:28] <godzirra> I've got my sound "working" (i.e. the sondcard is detected, alsamixer shows mixer settings) but no sound is coming out.  Anyone have any suggestions?
[20:28] <ivan_> already tried DIA, but i'm not a fan of drawing-out every little button
[20:28]  * bruenig changes his answer to John_R's
[20:28] <dissection> bulmer: http://www.nomorepasting.com/getpaste.php?pasteid=6202

[20:28] <Wisteso> draw GUIs...
[20:28] <bruenig> zcat[1], /usr/share/applications
[20:28] <bulmer> dissection-> i dont know about the led turning on/off
[20:28] <ivan_> would be great if it had a good library of modern gui elements: buttons, multiselects, drop down lists..
[20:29] <frojnd> I have a problem with evince. WHen I open pdf file it needs like forever to load one page. Not to mention that CPU has jump UP, UP, and did I mention UP. Is there any alternative to evince for opening pdf files ?
[20:29] <zcat[1]> thanks!!
[20:29] <ivan_> bruenig, gcc would be overkill
[20:29] <ivan_> John_R: need to give it a try
[20:29] <Mmjack> Hey. is there any way to save terminal commands to the desktop so i can just double click them and they run?
[20:29] <new2linx> okeefenokee: well then, use a WINS server and check this out. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=88206&highlight=name+resolution

[20:29] <Duesentrieb_> frojnd: kpdf, xpdf, ghostview?
[20:29] <ivan_> i have already looked through dia, kivio and xfib
[20:29] <bruenig> ivan_, I don't even know what you are doing, if you want simple guis, just use xdialog gtkdialog or what is that other one that people use starts with an e I think
[20:29] <new2linx> godzirra: the sound apps in the upper right corner isn't muted is it?
[20:30] <frojnd> Duesentrieb_, I'll try
[20:30] <LORENA> oyuu
 i'm working on a spec document and i need to prepare what the interface for a app will look like...
[20:30] <godzirra> new2linx: I don't have the sound app in the upper right corner... I never have.
[20:30] <bulmer> dissection-> what does iwconfig wlan0 tell you?
[20:31] <godzirra> new2linx: I just added volume control to my panel... no its not muted.
[20:31] <olivier__> I do not have any sound coming form my central speaker and my subwoofer... Where should i check
[20:31] <nintendo64> When I started the installer from the alternitive CD I got to a part where it sayd it would partition the disk, it sayd it needed 14 to 17 GB or something to install on the hard disk and I only have 6GB free, and the site sayd Ubuntu only needed 4GB. wtf?
[20:31] <nintendo64> I'm trying to make it dual boot
[20:31] <Ser> hello
[20:31] <dissection> bulmer: Hmm, the same as what I gave you in the url.. without the lo, eth0 and wmaster0
[20:31] <rukuartic> Duesentrieb_: Alright, I guess I'll do /media and /home -- how big should I make root? about 20 gigs or so?

[20:31] <nintendo64> I didn't want to overrite Windows so I cancelled it from there
[20:31] <rukuartic> Duesentrieb_: And should I do /var as well? /boot?
 gtkdialog is more for the actual making of a gtk gui.. i just need something that could help me easily draw out the interface... without having to reinvent the wheel
[20:31] <Duesentrieb_> rukuartic: huh? /media? that'S just for mounting stuff, no?
[20:31] <s|k_> can I have more than two desktops?

[20:32] <s|k_> Mmjack: yes

[20:33] <okeefenokee> new2linx: The tip looks good. One can assume that the ubuntu server is running samba as well, with wins activated?
[20:33] <Duesentrieb_> rukuartic: when moving /var, be sure to shut down everything that's currently using it (like databases, print/mail spoolers, etc)
[20:33] <Mmjack> S|K Click properties and turn the workspaces up
 no, i just want to draw one =)

[20:34] <bruenig> ivan_, ok yeah I have no idea what exists for that I thought you wanted to actually make a gui
[20:34] <godzirra> rukuartic: Its just a standard laptop.  It worked in feisty.  I'm trying to do something I found in the forums real quick to see if it works.  Give me a moment.

[20:34] <dissection> bulmer: Yeah, the IP is there..
[20:34] <navaburo> I needed to remove the ubuntu provided Nvidia driver, and use the latest one from nVidia. Then I needed to set my monitors Hsync and Vrefresh in xorg.conf manually to get the resolution up. THE DRIVER PROVIDED WITH UBUNTU (both nvidia-glx and nvidia-glx-new) would NOT use the values i manually entered and due to my strange screen config (18" old cornea LCD) it wouldnt work. Anyway, the resolution is here for the record.

[20:34] <Mmjack> Because i hate having to go through terminal to do some stuff again and again
[20:35] <navaburo> zcat[1]: the ubuntu packaging of the driver just doesnt manage
[20:35] <ivan_> bruenig, gcc would be a good answer anyway, cuz it looks like there isn't much for this task

[20:35] <new2linx> okeefenokee: you can't assume that, you can run ps aux | grep mbd to see if smbd and nmbd are running
[20:35] <nintendo64> Why is it syaing it needs 14GB
[20:35] <bulmer> dissection-> so it has an ip address, can you ping any other host?
[20:35] <Ackdar> bulmer: I just want to activate my wireless card

[20:36] <bulmer> dissection-> paste the result of  netstat -ran
[20:36] <Ackdar> rukuartic, I have the default driver installed, so that can't be the problem
[20:36] <nintendo64> w/e
[20:36] <LORENA> fatih
[20:36] <zcat[1]> navaburo: I have spend MONTHS recovering from nvidia's binary installer.. if you use it, your x will break every time you upgrade and it is absolute HELL to track down all the libraries it messes with and repair them if you ever want to go back to the packaged drivers
[20:36] <nintendo64> just why is ubuntu syaing it's 14GB
[20:36] <nintendo64> when the site says it's 4GB
[20:36] <LORENA> dddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddfffffffffffffddddddddddddffffffffffffd
[20:36] <LORENA> ffffffffffffffd

[20:36] <Ackdar> bulmer, my card is connected to my laptop, and the router stands alone (my server died)
[20:36] <zcat[1]> and the packaged nvidia-glx-new IS nvidia's latest driver afaik
[20:36] <okeefenokee> new2linx: Naw, I expressed m'self a bit unclearly...I meant that samba has to be installed, with the wins-option on, to have this system work.
[20:37] <frojnd> Duesentrieb_, hm... the results are the same :S Strange... I mean is there anything deeper just than a client for viewing pdf...
[20:37] <Kl4m> nintendo64: Was it trying to resize a Windows partition?
[20:37] <bulmer> Ackdar-> is your router also the AP?
[20:37] <ompaul> nintendo64, you got a package and an o/s and it is always useful to have some room hanging around
[20:37] <nintendo64> idk what partition it was going to do
[20:37] <new2linx> okeefenokee: as I said, I am not sure. if you click on shared folders, then type in the WINS server IP address there, I think it'll install samba yes.
[20:37] <Ackdar> bulmer: I'd assume routers ARE access points no matter where they are
[20:37] <nintendo64> I don;t have 14 GB free
[20:38] <nintendo64> And I don;t want it overriteing windows
[20:38] <bulmer> Ackdar-> nope, routers are not necessarily access point, my ubuntu is a router and its not an access point
[20:38] <Wisteso> it cant overwrite windows anyway
[20:38] <Wisteso> windows = ntfs/fat32
[20:38] <nintendo64> it cant? lol
[20:38] <Wisteso> no, it would have to format
[20:38] <Ackdar> bulmer, I just want it to be able to connect to my router
[20:38] <nintendo64> so even if I make it do the wrong thing it couldnt overwrite windows?
[20:39] <Kl4m> Well of course it CAN

[20:39] <me8myself> hey in ubuntu under visual effects when i try to turn it onto to anything over none i get a popup "the composite exstention is not available" how do i fix that?
[20:39] <Wisteso> it has to format to write over it, that's what im saying
[20:39] <_ac_chan_> hello
[20:39] <bulmer> Ackdar again is your router same as the access point? does it have an antenna? what brand?
[20:39] <okeefenokee> new2linx: Actually, I'm running an command line mode...and I intended to have *one* computer running samba and functioning as a wins-server. Found here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=65385&highlight=wins
[20:39] <nintendo64> will it tell me before it formats
[20:39] <Wisteso> haha, i would assume so
[20:39] <new2linx> okeefenokee: sounds good. that should work if you follow that guide then. I gotta go. good luck
[20:39] <zcat[1]> Hints for resizing windows; defrag is usually a good idea. Cleanly slosing Windows before you boot the live CD is ESSENTIAL.
[20:40] <Kl4m> nintendo64: I suspect that the Windows partition doesn't have enough free space on it to resize it small enough to put Ubuntu on another one
[20:40] <zcat[1]> *closing
[20:40] <bulmer> dissection-> are you sure your access point is connected on the wan side to the ethernet or another network that has a host you can ping?
[20:40] <Ackdar> bulmer, I don't use internet through the router, and it's a Buffalo AirStation with an antenna
[20:40] <nintendo64> ok
[20:40] <okeefenokee> new2linx: Thank you for the help!
[20:40] <nintendo64> I'll defrag and try it again lol
[20:40] <Kl4m> nintendo64: (while leaving a decent amount of free space for Windows)
[20:41] <zcat[1]> the ubuntu installer will NOT try to resize your NTFS unless it is absloutely in order. If you get even a little bit into booting windows, you must let it finiosh then cleanly shut down again from the menu.
[20:41] <bulmer> Ackdar-> once you connect to the AP, and the AP is not connected further upstream, what do you expect to accomplish?
[20:41] <seyed> any one have a good "how to install codec pack" tutorial for ubuntu 7.10?
[20:41] <Ackdar> bulmer, I also got http://rafb.net/p/MwlYfg26.html from lshw
[20:41] <nintendo64> my whole harddrive is 18.64GB
[20:41] <nintendo64> that's enough for windows and ubuntu right lol
[20:41] <Ackdar> bulmer, I don't use it as an internet AP, I use it as network access, I have dialup
[20:41] <erUSUL> ubotu tell seyed about mp3 | seyed see priv msg from ubotu
[20:41] <bulmer> Ackdar-> ahh the infamous broadcom
[20:41] <Wisteso> yes
[20:41] <Whitor> Besides Ctrl+Alt+Bksp, Is there any way for me to log out of Gnome?
[20:42] <Wisteso> ubuntu obviously fits on a CD
[20:42] <dissection> bulmer: Yes, everything is setup properly. I can use the wireless LAN in Windows. It was working perfectly fine in Ubuntu too till a few hours ago.. Then I used a wired network for 2 hours, and once I switched back to Wireless, it stopped working
[20:42] <erUSUL> !bcm4xx
[20:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bcm4xx - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi

[20:42] <ubotu> Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/Broadcom43xx
[20:42] <bulmer> Ackdar but is that AP somehow tied to your dialup access?
[20:42] <Whitor> I don't have my top and bottom bars
[20:42] <zcat[1]> nintendo64: I'd look at getting a bigger harddrive. 20G is pitiful these days!
[20:42] <Duesentrieb_> Whitor: kill -9 -1 will do...

[20:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about visual effects - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi

[20:42] <nintendo64> !defrag
[20:42] <ubotu> defragmentation is not needed for Ext3 and ReiserFS filesystems. They are much more efficient in their allocation of storage units.
[20:42] <Wisteso> it's more than enough though, windows is 2gb about (for xp) and ubuntu fits on a 700mb cd

[20:43] <rukuartic> zcat[1]: Not entirely, I'm running quite happily on one.
[20:43] <bulmer> Ackdar-> so where is the AP connected to upstream, upstream as in going to another network?
[20:43] <nintendo64> is it plugged in?
[20:43] <zcat[1]> Wisteso: That's using a compressed FS though
[20:43] <ArthurArchnix> help
[20:43] <Whitor> Any idea why my Panels in Gnome would dissapear?
[20:43] <nintendo64> Rhaegar is it plugged in
[20:43] <zcat[1]> Yes, you can fit Windows and Ubuntu on a 10G drive, but it doesn't leave much room to play around.
[20:43] <bulmer> dissection-> your setting seems okay per what you pasted..
[20:43] <Ackdar> bulmer, I have a wireless connection from laptop to router, then an ethernet cable from the router to the (now fried) server
[20:44] <Rhaegar> nintendo64, yes, of course, it's working perfectly on windows

[20:45] <dissection> bulmer: Okay, so what do I do next? I need to get the WiFi to work
[20:45] <zcat[1]> anyhow.. gotta restart gnome and see if this worked

[20:46] <dissection> bulmer: Okay, I'll have to disconnect from here
[20:46] <jodde> Are there any Widgets for gnome?

[20:54] <frojnd> err_, nop

[21:05] <neopsyche> I just opened image20.zip from MSN user
[21:06] <dissection> bulmer: Okay, I checked it out. The wired network works in Ubuntu. Wired and Wireless work in Windows. Everything's setup correctly, but wireless won't work in Ubuntu even though i did till earlier today
[21:06] <Symian> Does anyone here know *anything* about how to configure sound devices in Ubuntu?
[21:06] <Gerrit> gaming?
[21:06] <neopsyche> Duesentrieb_: by the look of it it is supposed to infect the "windoze" registry
[21:06] <neopsyche> Duesentrieb_: how does that work?
[21:06] <Veenified> Does anyone know how to get videos to play while using Compiz effects?
[21:06] <Duesentrieb_> neopsyche: by stupid people clicking on files
[21:06] <levander> Duesentrieb_: yeah, looks like I'm gonna have to try, and hope nothing blows up, i've been googling for too long to make sure its okay...
[21:06] <Odd-rationale> crolle17: I can't think of what could be wrong. Are you using the latest firefox?
[21:06] <neopsyche> Duesentrieb_: how would it effect a linux system?
[21:06] <crolle17> yeah of course
[21:06] <err_> bluefox83: the command you want is "top"
[21:07] <Duesentrieb_> neopsyche: it very likely won't.
[21:07] <crolle17> Odd-rationale, yeah of course
[21:07] <err_> bluefox83: or maybe "ps." Type "man ps"
[21:07] <neopsyche> Duesentrieb_: hehe.. i heard that windows viruses/worms cannot effect linux
[21:07] <neopsyche> Duesentrieb_: also knew it was a dubious file.. just wanted to see inside the zip.. it opens just like any other zip.
[21:07] <Symian> Ok, I guess it's better to ask then: can anyone see my typing?
[21:07] <Duesentrieb_> neopsyche: a windows work will not effet a linux system. it's possible to write worms for linux, or for a specific program, such a firefox or thunderbird - some exist, but they are rare.
[21:07] <Veenified> Does anyone know how to get videos to play while using Compiz effects?
[21:07] <err_> Symian: yes,
[21:07] <err_> .
[21:07] <neopsyche> This seems to be the one: http://www.cisrt.org/enblog/read.php?184&guid=1
[21:08] <Symian> err_: Thanks.
[21:08] <err_> ;)
[21:08] <thedefender> hey where can i edit my XGL startup script
[21:08] <bluefox83> err_, you were way off, but thanks anyways
[21:08] <neopsyche> Duesentrieb_: I think i will install an antivirus program anyway? :-)
[21:08] <Duesentrieb_> neopsyche: it probably just is like any other zip. if you want to be "safer", open stuff with "dumb" programs that don't do stuff "magically". most infections are caused by windows stuff "helping" you to run stuff automatically.
[21:08] <err_> bluefox83: heheh, maybe i misunderstood your question
[21:08] <Duesentrieb_> neopsyche: sure, install clamav
[21:08] <neopsyche> Duesentrieb_: clam av better than avg?
[21:09] <Symian> Can someone please help me? I have no sound. When I use alsamixer, the motherboard audio device is listed, NOT my real PCI audio card.
[21:09] <err_> bluefox83: did you find what you were looking for? what command was it?
[21:09] <crolle17> Odd-rationale, what's wrong with having the newest firefox (<IP_ADDRESS>)?
[21:09] <xocekim> Symian, try alsaconf
[21:09] <Odd-rationale> crolle17: Nothing of course. Just making sure.
[21:09] <mEck0> is it possible to install kde but without all the applications bundled with it? like a base with just the environment? I'm running ubuntu 7.10 if it's important...
[21:09] <Niteye> i type "vncserver", and i dont see any error but connecting to 5900 says port closed
[21:09] <crolle17> Odd-rationale, o.k.
[21:09] <Duesentrieb_> neopsyche: clamav is the obvious option on linux, because it's fully FOSS. don't know about "better".
[21:09] <Symian> xocekim: I don't have that program.

[21:10] <xocekim> Symian, "sudo alsaconf" only exists for root
[21:10] <neopsyche> Duesentrieb_: whatabout penguin penicillin?
[21:10] <Duesentrieb_> neopsyche: anyway, as i said, viruses on linux are extremely rare. linux boxes tend to be attacked directly over the net (because they tend to be servers)
[21:10] <Duesentrieb_> neopsyche: i have no clue
[21:10] <neopsyche> Duesentrieb_: http://www.linux-mag.com/id/2508/
[21:10] <bluefox83> err_, yeah, cat /proc/cpuinfo
[21:10] <Duesentrieb_> neopsyche: well then you know more about it than i do.
[21:10] <wick3dbluntz420> omg the newbies
[21:10] <Russian> err: do you maybe know if there is an alternative on Ubuntu for Finder in Leopard with the new feature Coverflow view?
[21:11] <Symian> xocekim: -su: ./alsaconf: No such file or directory
[21:11] <neopsyche> Duesentrieb_: Just the thought of next to no viruses AND extra protection.. having such a solid working machine.. against viruses.. makes me feel all warm and tingly inside.
[21:11] <Symian> xocekim: er, evenw ithout the ./
[21:11] <err_> bluefox83: heheh ok yeah totally misunderstood the question ;)
[21:12] <gnuskool> g'day
[21:12] <Duesentrieb_> neopsyche: i'd rather look into protection againts network based exploits and root kits.
[21:12] <wick3dbluntz420> try unmuting the mixer first- run alsamixer
[21:12] <Symian> Ok then - does anyone know how to get the program/script "alsaconf"?
[21:12] <dissection> Someone please help me get my WiFi to work
[21:12] <Duesentrieb_> neopsyche: especially since ubuntu has all ports open per default. sure, it doesn't run any services per default either - but are you sure you don't?=
[21:12] <Symian> wick3dbluntz420: are you talking to me?
[21:12] <Russian> err: sorry did you answer, cause I got disconnected?
[21:13] <wick3dbluntz420> whoevers looking for sound
[21:13] <err_> Russian: no, trying to figure out what you meant =/ whats leopard, thought it was a mac os version?
[21:13] <Russian> err: yes it is
[21:13] <neopsyche> Duesentrieb_: am i sure i dont?
[21:13] <Symian> wick3dbluntz420: I am trying to switch my sound device to card1, which is a PCI card.
[21:13] <dissection> Bulmer, are you still here?
[21:13] <Symian> wick3dbluntz420: alsamixer is using card0, the motherboard audio, which is incorrect.
[21:13] <Russian> err: how do you open all picutres at once ?
[21:14] <Duesentrieb_> neopsyche: i don't know, go and look. netstat is your friend.
[21:14] <wick3dbluntz420> just double click the speaker icon and choose card
[21:14] <neopsyche> Duesentrieb_: would a firewall help>?
[21:14] <Veenified> Does anyone know how to get videos to play while using Compiz effects?
[21:14] <Duesentrieb_> neopsyche: if you know how to configure it
[21:14] <err_> Russian: just open nautilus to the folder of images, thumbnails should pop up
[21:14] <thedefender> hey what is the XGL config file
[21:14]  * Silent|knast is away: Ich bin beschäftigt
[21:14]  * Duesentrieb_ found all "firewalls" for linux either stupid or extremely complex - best option seems to be to mess with iptables by hand.

[21:16] <b_> hi again

[21:16] <Symian> wick3dbluntz420: While that does allow me to select the right card, my computer is still using the wrong audio device.
[21:16] <levander> Duesentrieb_: just removing 70-persistent-net.rules did work, it was regenerated on boot, my networking is working now thanks.
[21:16] <ArthurArchnix> Russian I've been messing with it for a while now see "/help", but all I've managed to do is add ip/host info to the joins parts and piss off an admin.
[21:16] <err_> Russian: that should work too,
[21:16] <Symian> Can anyone tell me how to get 7.10 to use a different audio device besides card0?
[21:16] <err_> gotta run later all
[21:16] <wick3dbluntz420> go to alsamixer now and unmute it

[21:58] <ubotu> The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[21:58] <usrl> Is there any way to use add/remove to ONLY see the downloads from a specific repo?
[21:58] <stefg> kakoonia: google for an app called xhotkeys . Thta's not the only way, but the simplest
[21:58] <jimjam> dissection: First, make sure your wireless is switched on.
[21:59] <jimjam> dissection: Then click on the network icon in the top-right of the screen
[21:59] <kakoonia> stefg: isnt there some hotkey feature with gutsy?
[21:59] <CochiseIRL> usrl, i dont know but you can view the repo's online
[21:59] <Ar_Pharazon> abe, Ok, I can ping both ways, what now?
[21:59] <martbhell> hi! whoa, loads of action in here. Error: whenever there's a system beep the screen tones down for a sec n then goes back. Thinkpad t40 ubuntu 7.10.
[21:59] <jimjam> dissection: It should have an option to connect to available wireless networks
[21:59] <dissection> Curley_Sue: Yeah but its not doing it
[21:59] <usrl> CochiseIRL: just go to the web address?
[21:59] <Bonster> how u use copy a file name with spaces on it?
[21:59] <dissection> jimjam: I tried to switch from wireless to wired.. I switch off the wireless and then connected the ethernet cable.. But it doesn't do anything unless I restart
[21:59] <CochiseIRL> usrl, which repo you want to view?
[22:00] <dissection> Should I enable or disable roaming mode?
[22:00] <stefg> kakoonia: there's some labourious procedures within gnome .... just use  the separate xhotkeys daemon, it's much simpler and works in every desktop environment
[22:00] <usrl> CochiseIRL:  http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu
[22:00] <jimjam> martbhell: That's part of the Compiz Desktop Effects. I hate to use the phrase, but it's a feature, not a bug
[22:00] <boselecta> my system clock has been behaving weirdly lately.
[22:00] <NetworX> please i need help from someone ... sometimes my notebook hangs up with the boot meesage "waiting for root file system..."
[22:00] <NetworX> this only happens with ubuntu 7.10 (new kernel 6.22), ubuntu 7.04 works fine
[22:00] <dissection> Whats a better alternative to network-manager?
[22:00] <usrl> CochiseIRL: I think I see, thanks
[22:00] <jimjam> dissection: Oh ,that's what is plaguing you. I've had that occasionally myself... I don't have a solution for you.
[22:00] <Ar_Pharazon> abe, How do I share folders on my ubuntu so that winxp can see them?
[22:01] <martbhell> jimjam: oh how bollox, it's killing my eyes!
[22:01] <CochiseIRL> usrl, http://packages.ubuntu.com
[22:01] <kakoonia> stefg : thanks :D
[22:01] <abe> Ar_Pharazon, you can ping now?
[22:01] <dissection> jimjam: Any idea about wireless? It mysteriously stopped working today
[22:01] <Ar_Pharazon> abe, Yes, I can ping both ways.
[22:01] <NetworX> when looking up in google, i found out that many others do have that problem with the new kernel
[22:01] <Max-T> Hi I have a question about Linux running on laptops, Its quite a long question though do you mind if i post it in irc?
[22:01] <boselecta> first, the clock didn't update to standard time by itself. i went in and fiddled with the TZ settings and then it seemed to update properly. then i logged in today, and it was an hour too slow for a while, then all of a sudden it kicked an hour forward.
[22:01] <ArthurArchnix> !tell dissection about wifi
[22:02] <abe> Ar_Pharazon, great, share folder in the system administrator
[22:02] <CochiseIRL> Max-T, you can pm it to me if you want and ill see if i can help
[22:02] <dissection> ArthurArchnix: Tried all that
[22:02] <NetworX> has anyone heard of this error message yet? seems that i'm not the only person having this problem
[22:02] <Crash1hd> I am new to bash shell and I am trying to run a file but when I run sh test it returns saying sh is not a command?
[22:03] <dissection> Great, now even my wired network is not getting an IP
[22:03] <ArthurArchnix> dissection: What's the problem?
[22:03] <zth> Hey! I'm running dualscreen with Xinerama, but my performance gets really bad as i turn on it! (Separate X-servers for both screens) what to do? how can i solve this?
[22:03] <CochiseIRL> Crash1hd, bash file.sh
[22:03] <Crash1hd> CochiseIRL: I will try that
[22:03] <Crash1hd> bash command not found
[22:03] <boselecta> am i the only person who is having clock weirdness?
[22:04] <NetworX> isn't there anyone with an idea for that problem?
[22:04] <GuHHH> in case i need to backup my services configurations, which dirs should i backup? /etc/ and /usr/local/ ?
[22:04] <CochiseIRL> Crash1hd, ./file.sh
[22:04] <dissection> ArthurArchnix: Neither the wired nor wireless is getting an IP
[22:04] <ArthurArchnix> dissection: Do you have a router?
[22:04] <dissection> Yeah
[22:04] <Crash1hd> Getting permision denied
[22:05] <Tuples> where can I get the 32 bit libopenal0 deb package for gutsy?
[22:05] <ArthurArchnix> dissection: Have you tried resetting the router?
[22:05] <martbhell> jimjam: so either switch to another wm or can i get rid of compiz and still use gnome?
[22:05] <Crash1hd> CochiseIRL: Thanks for the help :) But I obviously dont have permision to do that
[22:05] <dissection> ArthurArchnix: No, it works fine in Windows.
[22:05] <CochiseIRL> Crash1hd, sudo chmod 666 file.sh
[22:05] <riotkittie> martbhell: go to System > Preference > Appearance ... last tab, turn effects off
[22:05] <CochiseIRL> Crash1hd, then ./file.sh
[22:05] <jimjam> martbhell: Go to System > Preferences > Appren... um, yeah, what riotkittie said :P
[22:06] <ArthurArchnix> dissection: So you have a windows machine connected to the router now, but your linux bo will not connect? Or is this a dual boot machine?
[22:06] <martbhell> ah
[22:06] <martbhell> thanks!
[22:06] <Curley_Sue> dissection: right click on it - do u have several options?
[22:06] <usrl> jimjam: Apprentices? :p
[22:06] <martbhell> i hope this is just more prominent on my poor laptop
[22:06] <dissection> ArthurArchnix: Okay, I restarted it and it worked. But I still have the same problem with the wireless. No IP. And sometimes it doesn't connect at all.
[22:06] <martbhell> cos nobody could want this :p
[22:06] <Crash1hd> I guess this might have something to do with it: You *cannot* compile code on this machine.
[22:06] <Crash1hd> when I log in
[22:06] <dissection> Curley_Sue: Right click on what?
[22:06] <jimjam> usrl: Yeah. The little hamsters I have in my computer doing all the thinking :P
[22:07] <jimjam> usrl: when the don't turn the wheels fast enough, the screen dims. martbhell has the same problem :P
[22:07] <usrl> jimjam: you wouldn't happen to work for CCP, would you?
[22:07] <ArthurArchnix> dissection: Your post confuses me. Do you have a windows machine and a linux machine, or is this a dual boot machine. Second, are you saying that you can sometimes connect to the internet with the linux machine, or never.
[22:08] <dissection> ArthurArchnix: Yeah two systems
[22:08] <Ackdar_> I seem to be getting "          Rx invalid nwid:0  Rx invalid crypt:0  Rx invalid frag:0" on iwconfig, what does it mean?
[22:08] <ArthurArchnix> dissection: And have you ever successfully connected with the linux machine?
[22:08] <rbs-tito> In Gutsy should the ubuntu-restricted-extras  package sort out DVD playback?
[22:08] <Ackdar_> I have the ESSID of my router corrrect, and the WEP key correct
[22:09] <martbhell> jimjam: or one could turn of the visual system bee psetting, that fixed my issue anyway
[22:09] <dissection> ArthurArchnix: Until earlier today, everything was working fine. Today the wireless mysteriously stopped working after I used the wired network for two hours... Its been giving me headaches ever since.. Sometimes even the wired network doesn't work, sometimes it doesn't. And the wireless now doesn't work at all
[22:09] <jimjam> martbhell: That's exactly how to do it; Well done.
[22:10] <jimjam> usrl: Sadly, no... I keep trying but they keep on rejecting me.
[22:10] <martbhell> thanks! incredibly friendly channel, think ill stay for a while and maybe learn a thing or two :p

[22:10] <x_> e8
[22:10] <ArthurArchnix> dissection: Can you log into your router from your windows machine. You should confirm that you have an administrator password set, and confirm that your router security security settings have not changed. Also, check to see if mac filtering has been enabled.
[22:10] <rbs-tito> stefg: I thought that was just for Feisty? The wiki is quite unspecific
[22:11] <ubuntu> i need help installting ubuntu
[22:11] <dissection> ArthurArchnix: There're no security settings changed, and no mac filtering enabled.
[22:11] <CochiseIRL> rbs-tito, no mediubntu has a gutsy repo too
[22:11] <Ar_Pharazon> abe, I added the folder in system-admin-shared folders but I can't see it from the winxp pc.
[22:11] <CochiseIRL> ubuntu, whats up
[22:11] <stefg> rbs-tito: that's for gutsy, too

[22:11] <usrl> Bonster: \?
[22:11] <chop> sorry
[22:11] <usrl> chop: thanks^ ^
[22:11] <CochiseIRL> Bonster, use tab to autocomplete
[22:11] <chop> let me get to the screen i got stuck at one sec please
[22:12] <ArthurArchnix> dissection: If you plug in your linux laptop to the router (wired connection), are you able to ping the router?
[22:12] <void^> Bonster: "like so", or like\ this
[22:12] <Ackdar_> bonster: put the filename in quotes
[22:12] <Bonster> im trying to use a script
[22:12] <chop> ok im at the partition step
[22:12] <chop> i select guided
[22:12] <CochiseIRL> Bonster, \
[22:12] <dissection> ArthurArchnix: Yeah
[22:12] <chop> then i select a partition i set aside for thje installation
[22:12] <CochiseIRL> chop, are you going to dual boot or just ubuntu
[22:12] <chop> dual boot
[22:13] <Bonster> file name is like  Lost - Episode 1.flv
[22:13] <Bonster> but it doesnt read it
[22:13] <abe> try \\<IP_ADDRESS> in the folder explorer in win
[22:13] <Bonster> i have to rename it everytime
[22:13] <Ackdar_> Bonster: "Lost - Episode 1.flv"
[22:13] <usrl> Bonster: then it would look like this: ./Lost\ -\ Episode\ 1.flv
[22:13] <ArthurArchnix> dissection: Do you have network manager running right now?
[22:13] <usrl> Bonster: Or you could use quotes, or just rename the file
[22:13] <chop> CochiseIRL, dual boot
[22:13] <Ackdar_> I seem to be getting "          Rx invalid nwid:0  Rx invalid crypt:0  Rx invalid frag:0" on iwconfig, what does it mean?
[22:14] <Ackdar_> I have the ESSID of my router corrrect, and the WEP key correct
[22:14] <Bonster> quote doesnt work and renameing the file is a pain
[22:14] <usrl> Bonster: then use \
[22:14] <kbrooks> Ackdar_, nothing
[22:14] <ArthurArchnix> dissection: By default, it runs in the top right corner of your desktop.
[22:14] <dissection> ArthurArchnix: Yeah I have it
[22:14] <chop> do i select manual, guided installtion ?
[22:14] <Ackdar_> kbrooks, then why can't I connect to my router?
[22:14] <ArthurArchnix> dissection: Can you disable networking by right-clicking on it.
[22:15] <CochiseIRL> chop, ok just wanted to  know before you continued, select manual
[22:15] <Bonster> the \ i would have to do it to every word
[22:15] <ArthurArchnix> dissection: Ensure you do the same for wireless.
[22:15] <kbrooks> Ackdar_, i was only answering your question.
[22:15] <chop> ok
[22:15] <rbs-tito> stefg: I've followed the instructions and installed libdvdcss2 from the mediuntu repository. DVD opens in Mplayer but everything is scrambled, after about 5 seconds it stops and says "Error - gnome-screensaver()"
[22:16] <chop> select the free space and create partition then mount point as / ?

[22:16] <dissection> ArthurArchnix: Okay, done
[22:16] <usrl> is there any way to get info on a package from the terminal, like you can with add/remove and synaptic?
[22:16] <chop> ah ok i already have xp insatlled
[22:16] <dissection> ArthurArchnix: Should I remove the network cable?
[22:16] <chop> so i should clear xp off
[22:16] <mycroftiv> nintendo64: good job sticking with it, I know you were having lots of issues, what was the fix?
[22:16] <nintendo64> I just installed ubuntu and there's a bunch of weird lines running down my screen
[22:17] <stefg> rbs-tito: try a reboot. and from my personal experience i prefer vlc over mplayer for DVD playback
[22:17] <dooglus> I ssh'ed to a remote host and port-forwarded 5900 on the localhost to 5900 on the remote host.  then shut the remote host down.  now port 5900 can't be used on the localhost.  how can I make it available again?
[22:17] <nintendo64> how do I get rid of them
[22:17] <ArthurArchnix> dissection: No. Please use pastebin and post the output of ifconfig
[22:17] <CochiseIRL> chop, you'll have to resize the xp from the ubuntu setup so you can fit ubuntu on the drive
[22:17] <dissection> Okay
[22:17] <ArthurArchnix> !pastbin dissection:

[22:18] <kkerwin> Hi. In Konversation, is there anyway to get a list of channels on a server?
[22:18] <SinCosTan> Is it a bad idea to use Debian .debs on a Ubuntu system?
[22:18] <CochiseIRL> chop, yes and leave a swap partition of the same size of your ram
[22:18] <nintendo64> is rpm supposed to be the ubuntu equivilant of .exe
[22:18] <CochiseIRL> SinCosTan, depends on the app
[22:18] <chop> CochiseIRL, my ram is 2gb how much ?
[22:18] <mycroftiv> nintendo64: don't download from websites, use the ubuntu repositories with synaptic or add/remove software
[22:18] <orion-uk> file..server list /-)
[22:18] <rbs-tito> SinCosTan: If there are Ubuntu specific ones then use them, if not Debian usually works
[22:19] <kkerwin> nintendo64: RPMs and DEBs are packages used to install a program.
[22:19] <usrl> nintendo64: Ubuntu is debian based, not red hat. We use .deb, but it's fairly similar. I think .deb is closer to .msi though
[22:19] <Ackdar_> kkerwin, try /list
[22:19] <CochiseIRL> chop, use 18gb for / and 2gb for swap
[22:19] <kkerwin> Ackdar_: Thank you. :-)
[22:19] <stefg> rbs-tito: actually i don't know if totem-gstreamer runs with libdvdcss. For me only vlc supports DVD menus properly, so i never actually was interested in trying something else
[22:19] <CochiseIRL> nintendo64, rpm is for fedora
[22:19] <rbs-tito> nintendo64: Ubuntu doesn't use RPM
[22:19] <dissection> Ackdar_: http://www.nomorepasting.com/getpaste.php?pasteid=6214
[22:19] <SinCosTan> CochiseIRL: it's Csound - the version in repo is ancient but the project has posted .debs themselves
[22:19] <Ax-Ax> hm
[22:19] <CochiseIRL> SinCosTan, is there a ubuntu deb there?
[22:19] <ArthurArchnix> dissction: can you add to that the output of lspci, sorry.
[22:19] <nintendo64> I just installed ubuntu and there's a bunch of weird lines running down my screen
[22:20] <chop> CochiseIRL, how do i setup the swap ?
[22:20] <mycroftiv> nintendo64: ubuntu has pidgin installed by default which is graphical app that handles tons of messenging formats including IRC, to fix your graphics you need to setup the xserver to use your graphics card correctly
[22:20] <nintendo64> how do I get rid of these lines running down my screen
[22:20] <SinCosTan> CochiseIRL: nope. I found something on the wiki that said I should try rebuilding the debs on Ubuntu in the first instance but that seems overkill?
[22:20] <nintendo64> ok
[22:20] <CochiseIRL> chop, after u made the 18gb partition make another and pick the mount point as swap
[22:20] <usrl> nintendo64: Do you mean during booting, or a graphics glitch, or what? Just 'lines' doesn't tell us much
[22:20] <Ackdar_> dissection, once again, I can't help, so why are you giving that to me?
[22:20] <dissection> Uh, wrong nick
[22:20] <Max-T> Is it possible for me to use the synaptic tool to download a package and all its dependencies as say .deb files to a datapen to then install them on a computer that does not have internet acess?
[22:20] <CochiseIRL> SinCosTan, use the debian one so or compile from source
[22:20] <Ax-Ax> why doesnt all my resolutions show up in Change Resolution window?
[22:20] <dissection> ArthurArchnix: http://www.nomorepasting.com/getpaste.php?pasteid=6214
[22:20] <chop> CochiseIRL, /swap correct ?
[22:20] <orion-uk> http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu
[22:20] <kakoonia> stefg : i cant figure out how to download xhotkeys, i googled it, but every link i get is to the same site: http://www.nongnu.org/xhotkeys/index.html .. i dont understand how to install it from there.. can you help me out with this
[22:21] <CochiseIRL> chop, yup
[22:21] <nintendo64> the lines have been running down my screen before I opened irc
[22:21] <SinCosTan> CochiseIRL: do I need to do anything special to keep Synaptic happy? I think I have a metapackage depend on the csound currently installed
[22:21] <nintendo64> these lines have been there seince the desktop opened
[22:21] <mycroftiv> nintendo64: you have to configure X for your graphics setup, there are several different ways to approach it, but you need to have the info on what graphics card you are using and what resolution your monitor supports
[22:21] <CochiseIRL> SinCosTan, if you can remove the old one first do, its generally better before using a newer version
[22:21] <Shapeshifter> I'm trying to install Ubuntu 7.10 on a nvidia driven computer. But I can't even get to the live cd environment! >.< I tired safe-graphics, I tried various VGA options, but the X server keeps crashing perpetualy!
[22:21] <Shapeshifter> After around 6 times, X prints a blue screen and gives me 90 seconds. I then managed to get into a TTY and startx myself, but after 90s Broken X returns, I can't install -.- What should I do?
[22:21] <masmota> nintendo64: reduce resolution?
[22:21] <chop> CochiseIRL, ok i did that but when i click to continue it says i didnt set a swap partition
[22:22] <stefg> kakoonia: on that site you can download a .deb package (it's the same for debian and ubuntu). just click on it and gdebi will install it for you (just like that other OS does...:-) )
[22:22] <CochiseIRL> chop, did you pick the filesystem format as swap
[22:22] <SinCosTan> How do I find all the dependencies on the one I remove?
[22:22] <nintendo64> how do I change the screen resolution
[22:22] <ArthurArchnix> dissection: I'll need you to post the output of lspci to pastebin as well. You said that your wired network is working, is that correct?
[22:22] <CochiseIRL> SinCosTan, sudo aptitude remove appname
[22:22] <chop> CochiseIRL, file system = ex3
[22:22] <masmota> nintendo64:  under preferences > screen resolution
[22:22] <cfedde> after upgrading to 7.10 I hear all my sound through the PC speaker.  What did I break?
[22:22] <chop> CochiseIRL, file system = ext3
[22:22] <usrl> nintendo64: System -> Preferences or Adminstration -> Screen Resolution
[22:22] <tomasso> I can upgrade from 7.04 to 7.10, i get Error during update ... A problem occured during the update. This is usually some sort of network problem, please check your network connection and retry.
[22:22] <chop> CochiseIRL, mount point = /swap
[22:23] <CochiseIRL> chop, the 18gb partition / should be ext3, the 2gb swap should be swap
[22:23] <kakoonia> stefg: realy, i cant find a file download.. ill check again.
[22:23] <mycroftiv> nintendo64: try system > administration > screens and graphics also and see if your hardware has been identified at all by the system
[22:23] <kakoonia> stefg:
[22:23] <IpMoo> whos  realy good with hardware
[22:23] <dissection> ArthurArchnix: Yeah the wired network is working right now
[22:23] <kakoonia> stefg: aha!! hehehe i need to click on the Debian logo! hehehe
[22:23] <chop> CochiseIRL, ah gotcha what should i set for the mount point for the swap
[22:23] <orion-uk> http://konversation.kde.org/wiki/Kubuntu
[22:24] <Ackdar_> my wifi card can't seem to connect to my router. anyone available?
[22:24] <stefg> kakoonia: it was /too/ obvious it seems
[22:24] <CochiseIRL> chop, when you pick swap as the file-system the mount point should grey out
[22:24] <usrl> Ackdar_: Can it connect to other routers?
[22:24] <usrl> Ackdar_: and does it find your router and refuse to connect, or not see it at all?
[22:24] <chop> CochiseIRL, true lol
[22:24] <ArthurArchnix> dissection: If you look at the output of ifconfig, you'll notice that your wireless isn't there.
[22:24] <CochiseIRL> chop, your set so i think the rest is pretty easy
[22:24] <Ackdar_> usrl, it does not see it at all
[22:25] <usrl> Ackdar_: do other computers work on your router's wireless?
[22:25] <axjv> Does anyone know how to update the 'intel' video plugin that came with the Gutsy Gibbon CD?
[22:25] <nintendo64> If I change the resolution nothing happens
[22:25] <kakoonia> stefg: i guess, i just checked the links over there... Thanks bro.,
[22:25] <dissection> ArthurArchnix: But thats because you asked me to disable it
[22:25] <Ackdar_> usrl, my only other computer has win98
[22:25] <Shapeshifter> I'm trying to install Ubuntu 7.10 on a nvidia driven computer. But I can't even get to the live cd environment! >.< I tired safe-graphics, I tried various VGA options, but the X server keeps crashing perpetualy!
[22:25] <Shapeshifter> After around 6 times, X prints a blue screen and gives me 90 seconds. I then managed to get into a TTY and startx myself, but after 90s Broken X returns, I can't install -.- What should I do?
[22:25] <Ackdar_> and it has an ethernet connection
[22:26] <chop> CochiseIRL, the installation has started thanks for your help buddy greatly appreciated!
[22:26] <nintendo64> If I change the resolution nothing happens
[22:26] <usr13> Ackdar_: Bring up a terminal window and issue comand   iwconfig
[22:26] <nintendo64> the screen doesnt even turn off and on
[22:26] <nintendo64> and there's still these stupid lines running down my screen
[22:26] <usr13> Ackdar_:   Tell us if it says "no wireless extensions"
[22:26] <CochiseIRL> chop, np
[22:26] <usrl> Ackdar_: alright. First thing I'd do is check your router's settings (probably at <IP_ADDRESS> if you don't know) and try to see if it's even got wireless enabled, and if it is, if it's broadcasting.
[22:26] <rbs-tito> nintendo64: You might have a bad refresh rate
[22:26] <Ackdar_> usr13, no, it doesn't
[22:26] <rbs-tito> nintendo64: Is this gur
[22:27] <rbs-tito> nintendo64: *gutsy
[22:27] <Ackdar_> usrl, I have no access to my router's config
[22:27] <nintendo64> idk
[22:27] <stefg> kakoonia: after you have installed it you need to add xhotkeys -d to your session autostart
[22:27] <nintendo64> it's ubuntu
[22:27] <usr13> Ackdar_: What is it then, eth0 or eth1 ?
[22:27] <usrl> Ackdar_: well that could be your problem. Why not?
[22:27] <Max-T>  Is it possible for me to use the synaptic tool to download a package and all its dependencies, not install them, and then save the .deb files to a datapen to then install them on a computer that does not have internet acess?
[22:27] <rbs-tito> nintendo64: Which version? :)
[22:27] <Ackdar_> usr13, eth1
[22:27] <nintendo64> 7.10
[22:27] <nintendo64> i htink
[22:27] <nintendo64> * think
[22:27] <usr13> Ackdar_:   sudo dhclient eth1
[22:27] <Ackdar_> usrl, my win98 computer dies
[22:27] <SJr|Work> I have a debian box, and a kubuntu box. I'd like to move the Bitstream Charter Font from one to the other. How do I do it?
[22:27] <Ackdar_> died*
[22:27] <rbs-tito> nintendo64: Yup, Gutsy. What tool are youusing to
[22:27] <SJr|Work> I have a debian box, and a kubuntu box. I'd like to move the Bitstream Charter Font from Debian to Ubuntu how do I do it?
[22:27] <Ackdar_> usr13, I have a static IP
[22:28] <rbs-tito> nintendo64: *Are you using to change the resolution
[22:28] <usrl> Ackdar_: Ah. doesn't the laptop have an ethernet port you can hook up with?
[22:28] <RedB14> jason_ !
[22:28] <stefg> SJr|Work: all fonts live in /usr/share/fonts on debina and ubuntu
[22:28] <Ackdar_> usrl, OH, right
[22:28] <usr13> Ackdar_:   sudo eth1 192.168.1.x
[22:28] <nintendo64> system - administration - screens and graphics
[22:28] <SJr|Work> excellent
[22:28] <kakoonia> stefg: just added it.. :)
[22:28] <usr13> Ackdar_:   sudo route add default gw <IP_ADDRESS>
[22:28] <orion-uk> nintendo64: sax2?
[22:28] <Ackdar_> usr13, my IPs are already set
[22:28] <nintendo64> what?
[22:28] <rbs-tito> nintendo64: Are you pressing Test or OK to accept the changes?
[22:29] <nintendo64> OK
[22:29] <usrl> Ackdar_: Wait, if your 98 box is dead, and your laptop wasn't connected, how are we speaking? :)
[22:29] <usr13> Ackdar_:   edit /etc/resolv.conf    (add nameservers)
[22:29] <etherael> anyone know what might cause the search box in firefox to stop working? (you can enter text, but enter key does nothing)
[22:29] <SJr|Work> stefg how do I tell which font is the one I want
[22:29] <Ackdar_> usrl, I use dialup for internet
[22:29] <usrl> Ackdar_: Ah.
[22:29] <Ackdar_> usr13, dchp is disabled on my router
[22:29] <nintendo64> I can't click test
[22:29] <rbs-tito> nintendo64: Does the one in system - preferences - screen resolution work?
[22:29]  * Ackdar_ runs to grab a cable
[22:29] <stefg> SJr|Work: either by name or using the gnome font viewer
[22:30] <SJr|Work> ugh why is it so hard...
[22:30] <usr13> Ackdar_:   edit /etc/resolv.conf    (add nameservers):  nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>    nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.x
[22:30] <SJr|Work> hmmmm none of the file names seems to be recognizable
[22:30] <RedB14> i just followd this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto and after the reboot no sound at all, when i click the sound icon a error msg : no volume control gstremer plugins and/or devices found !

[22:31] <nintendo64> When I try changing the resolution/refresh rate I can't click test only OK

[22:32] <rbs-tito> nintendo64: OK. Do you know what graphics card you are using?
[22:32] <usrl> nintendo64: are you switching it to a resolution your monitor supports?
[22:32] <[myg0t]MonkeyFis> hello there
[22:32] <usr13> Ackdar_: Then don't need to assign default gw if you are not going access anything outside the LAN

[22:32] <preaction> homanj, yes, that's what "SMP" means in 'uname -a'
[22:33] <usr13> Ackdar_: And you don't need nameservers entered in /etc/resolv.conf
[22:33] <preaction> homanj, though i believe the "generic" kernel has SMP enabled by default
[22:33] <usr13> Ackdar_: Just assign an IP address and your done.
[22:33] <nintendo64> I'll try restarting
[22:33] <w4ett> nintendo64: click on apply and it will test the new res
[22:33] <Ackdar_> usr13, I know, so I didn't take any of the steps
