[14:58] <DefineByte> fyi i managed to fix the problem. i rebooted...I know, but it's a sin to reboot in Linux, right? >.< Seems like it got stuck while running mpd --create-db.
[14:58] <snuffy47> can a 1.6 athlon and 2G ram handle it and carry out data sharing
[14:58] <erUSUL> snuffy47: there is apnalty in writtes for the calculation of the parity and in reads
[14:58] <DefineByte> big-bro: excellent news. what was the fix?
[14:59] <snuffy47> rge
[14:59] <snuffy47> rgr
[14:59] <zer0her0> ok i have a question i really don't want to ask, is it possible to resize a ubuntu partition to install windows, i'd rather not have to format and reinstall both ubuntu and windows.
[14:59] <erUSUL> snuffy47: i guess you will have to try out, is hard to make guesses
[14:59] <Nemoniko> erUSUL: in the firs tab not appear lan network adapter
[15:00] <erUSUL> Nemoniko: appears when you do « ifconfig -a » ?
[15:00] <kahen> zer0her0, take a look at resize2fs
[15:00] <dirker> Hello all, I'm wondering, in Ubuntu, which framework is responsible for calling ifup when a new network interface gets added?
[15:00] <Pici> zer0her0: Sure. But you cannot resize a parition while it is mounted, so the best thing to do would be to boot off of a liveCD and use gparted from there
[15:00] <grawity> dirker: NetworkManager, I guess.
[15:00] <sphenxes> I would like to clone my windows xp partition (live knopix) with dd command to an image file. I would like to use it in case of windows crash, that i can reinstall the windows xp system. Is it possible with dd command (clone the partition) or not?
[15:00] <simplexio> zer0her0: probably yes.. gparted knows howto resize partitions, but even it says that it can do it, i eould make backups
[15:01] <simplexio> sphenxes: yes
[15:01] <Nemoniko> erUSUL: pan0 Link encap: Ethertnet addresHW (macnumber)
[15:01] <dirker> grawity: who tells NetworkManager about the new device?
[15:01] <simplexio> sphenxes: windows may complain if you change your hardware etc.etc. but it should work
[15:01] <big-bro> DefineByte - it had to do with libsound and pulse audio..it was an easy fix
[15:01] <Tarthen> sphenxes: For cloning, get Clonezilla. 92 or so MB and supports NTFSclone, partclone and dd.
[15:01] <zer0her0> simplexio: yes hehe i know ;) i generally don't resize like that but it's a rare occassion that i need to install windows semi quickly to run some 3d stuff
[15:01] <grawity> dirker: HAL, I think (or it could be udev, I never understood the difference)
[15:02] <Tarthen> sphenxes: Is a live CD
[15:02] <DefineByte> good to know. thx :)
[15:02] <dirker> grawity: thanks a lot :-)
[15:02] <zer0her0> deadlines are annoying
[15:02] <erUSUL> Nemoniko: pan0 is not a "real" ethernet card... you should have eth0 or eth1
[15:02] <simplexio> zer0her0: hoe advanced 3d stuff, vbox has somekinf 3d support nowdays for opengl, and wine may help too
[15:02] <sphenxes> Tarris, yes
[15:02] <Nemoniko> erUSUL: so not appear
[15:02] <sphenxes> Tarthen yes
[15:02] <Tarris> ??
[15:03] <erUSUL> Nemoniko: do « lspci | grep -i net » paste that in pastebin
[15:03] <erUSUL> !paste | Nemoniko
[15:03] <zer0her0> simplexio: sadly...directx 3d :(
[15:03] <zer0her0> and i tried vbox
[15:03] <Nemoniko> oka
[15:03] <zer0her0> i currently actually have my copy of windows running in vbox, hm i wonder if it's going to be a problem to run it native as well...
[15:03] <Nemoniko> erUSUL: ok
[15:03] <simplexio> zer0her0: atlest keep your livecd on hand, windows installer probably overwrites your grub
[15:03] <pkkm> what are qt options?
[15:04] <zer0her0> simplexio: good call.
[15:04] <simplexio> zer0her0: there is some "hacks" to run same windows install from vbox and native
[15:04] <simplexio> zer0her0: newer tried, but i think its possible
[15:04] <zer0her0> simplexio: what do you mean
[15:04] <kahen> simplexio, windows install always overwrites the MBR
[15:04] <geoff_> hello  aethelrick - my video card is : integrated sis real 256e graphics
[15:05] <kiaas_> SiS is horrid Dx
[15:05] <grawity> Many users complain about Windows overwriting the MBR. But a lot more would complain if it didn't.
[15:05] <simplexio> zer0her0: you can install vbox to run virtual machine from real partiotion, and i think there is way to tell windows that it may havetwo sets of hardware
[15:05] <simplexio> grawity: attleast, it would be fun if they would give you a choice
[15:06] <zer0her0> simplexio: oooohh!!
[15:06] <kiaas_> You need windows to have sysprep installed I believe
[15:06] <zer0her0> i'll google that now
[15:06] <zer0her0> :)
[15:06] <simplexio> zer0her0: attleast i remeber seeing that kind of howto somewhere, but i sound too hard to do to and i didnt have any reson to boot native windows
[15:07] <zer0her0> i rarely do, i barely boot the vbox
[15:07] <grawity> simplexio: Imagine you are a Joe Random User, who has not much knowledge about computers, but needs to install Windows. "It's asking me if I want to overwrite the MBR. What's a MBR? I just want to install Windows."
[15:07] <kiaas_> grawity, most of them don't know how to use the installer as it is now.
[15:08] <simplexio> oh, in linux i didnt use vboxed windows  that much, nowdays in windows i run vboxed ubuntu allways, windows dosent have all those nice features when it comes to run X progs over X tunnel etc..
[15:09] <noobez> hi how can i put vlc as video default app?
[15:09] <simplexio> grawity: sure.. i can understand that point. but it wouldnt be that hard to give users option. besides my opinion is that joe basicusers shouldnt touch computers if they dont be ready to loose all data..
[15:09] <jrib> !defaultapp | noobez
[15:10] <grawity> simplexio: Yeah, there could be Shift-F10 for "geek mode" (just like there already is Shift-F12 for Command Prompt)
[15:10] <noobez> jrib: tried that but even if its written on that guide that it would by then open all files with same extension with the preferred app, it doesnt do it
[15:11] <simplexio> grawity: or licence to use computers, so we could keep biggest idiots away
[15:11] <jrib> noobez: what?  what guide?
[15:11] <grawity> simplexio: That's... more evil than Microsoft itself.
[15:11] <grawity> (kind of joking)
[15:11] <noobez> jrib: on the ubuntu wiki
[15:12] <jrib> noobez: I didn't give you any guide on the ubuntu wiki...
[15:12] <jrib> noobez: just try what ubottu said
[15:12] <simplexio> grawity: on bad day im stand 100% nbehind that.. but well somehow basicuser need to get advanced user
[15:12] <noobez> jrib: indeed U didnt give it to me but what the bot suggested is the same thatz written on the wiki
[15:12] <Greenstuff> hi
[15:12] <jrib> noobez: right, so try it
[15:12] <noobez> jrib: i told u i tried it already and...
[15:12] <noobez> jrib: tried that but even if its written on that guide that it would by then open all files with same extension with the preferred app, it doesnt do it
[15:13] <jrib> noobez: read more closely.  You have to click on Properties first
[15:13] <purvesh> i want to change my partition .... any 1 can help me... ,purvesh
[15:13] <Vooloo> is it possible to chroot a ssh user in /etc/passwd using path or do you need to do something else?
[15:14] <Nemoniko> erUSUL: http://imagebin.org/62462
[15:14] <simplexio> purvesh: ? gparted GUI, or fdisk from cli
[15:14] <noobez> jrib: i dont think u want to help me, i told u i right click on properties then on open with and selected VLC but...
[15:14] <purvesh> simplexio, my os is ubuntu 8.10
[15:14] <jrib> noobez: I do, but your responses don't really make sense.  Can you write complete sentences?
[15:15] <noobez> jrib: it doesnt open with it all the files with the same extensions of the file i just changed the open with to
[15:15] <brz> Hey, anyone got any idea why OIDENTD my OIDENTD isn't working - Ive done everything in the manual.
[15:15] <brz> It actually worked while using 8.10, but when I upgraded to Jaunty, it stopped :(
[15:15] <jrib> noobez: ok.  Does the file you clicked on now open with vlc when you double click?
[15:15] <noobez> jrib: what is your problem man? are you here to help or what?
[15:15] <grawity> brz: Run 'sudo fuser -n tcp 113', what does it say?
[15:16] <noobez> jrib: yes the specific file does, but NOT ALL THE OTHER ONES WITH THE SAME EXTENSIONS as instead explained on the wiki
[15:16] <jrib> noobez: I'm being serious.
[15:16] <brz> grawity: 113/tcp:              2189
[15:16] <jrib> noobez: no need for the caps.  Check the mime type on the other files vs the file you clicked on
[15:16] <brz> even when I nmap localhost -p 113, it says open
[15:16] <grawity> brz: It might be your router blocking it somehow.
[15:17] <noobez> jrib: what is the mime type?
[15:17] <abhifx> is there a push email software for ubuntu?
[15:17] <grawity> brz: Very often, incoming ports must be manually forwarded to your computer.
[15:17] <grawity> abhifx: Push email?
[15:17] <brz> strange, because it was working before I upgraded to 9.04 the other night :P
[15:17] <simplexio> brz: try telnet localhost 113 , you should get something out of there
[15:17] <jrib> noobez: right click on the file, properties.  It will be somewhere in there.  If you can't find it, tell me
[15:17] <brz> the port must be forwarded, it was working previously :D
[15:17] <grawity> brz: Hmm, good point.
[15:17] <noobez> jrib: sorry for the caps but it was the 3rd time that i had to write the same thing i thought the caps might help u reading it now
[15:17] <grawity> brz: telnet localhost 113
[15:17] <heatmzzr> tar -vxf alsa-driver-1.0.20.tar.gz      (this is the command I was told to use to open alsa-driver-1.0.20.tar.bz2) what am I missing.. it says no such file or directory....???
[15:18] <grawity> brz: Then enter this line: 123,456
[15:18] <brz> Trying <IP_ADDRESS>...

[15:18] <etbl> fatismul: hello?
[15:18] <brz> oops, sorry for the spam paste, crazy irssi ;o
[15:18] <grawity> brz: After you enter 123,456 (any number, comma, any number) and press Enter, oidentd should give an error message.
[15:18] <purvesh> simplexio, i want ot change my partition which is at /usr.... i drop at der 30gb... so i want it at my /home......?
[15:18] <brz> Error no user
[15:18] <noobez> jrib: is this "AVI video (video/x-msvideo)" what ur talking about? if its this i checked other .avi files in other folders and it wont open em with vlc, but with totem, cant i just unistall totem?
[15:19] <brz> connection closed by foreign host
[15:19] <kahen> heatmzzr, the options used to decompress a tar.bz2 file is xfvj? "-" usually means extract to console (useful for piping to another program)
[15:19] <simplexio> brz: so its working
[15:19] <grawity> brz: Well, it seems to be working :|
[15:19] <jrib> noobez: yes, is the mime type the same for the file you clicked on and the other files?
[15:19] <legend2440> heatmzzr: your probably not in the right directory. if you right click the file do you see Extract Here
[15:19] <ealkmaar> good day everyone is there someone that knows why, after loading ubuntu and it is trying to load the GUI (on first boot, either live cd or during install) i get a gray-ish screen with a white rectangle in the lopleft of the screen, and a *very* sluggish mouse, as if the HDD is using POI mode or something
[15:20] <brz> I'm still getting the tilde ~ on IRC when I connect
[15:20] <brz> and the *** No Ident response
[15:20] <brz> which slows down the initial connect :p not a HUGE problem, but highly annoying!
[15:20] <grawity> brz: Do you connect to any IRC server over IPv6?
[15:20] <brz> ipv6/v4
[15:20] <noobez> jrib: i dunno if ur kidding me for fun or if ur trying to make me lose time or i dunno, im sorry man, i no ur here to help as a volonteer but i told u already 4 times that the files have THE SAME EXTENSION = the same 3 letters after the dot = the same mime type
[15:20] <brz> what ever I feel like at the time :D
[15:20] <simplexio> brz: log to some other machine and try telnet there if identd answers
[15:21] <brz> it was working with both v4/v6 previously.
[15:21] <innomen> i discovered that joy2key is in the repos, but i get the following error...  "Error opening /dev/js0! Are you sure you have joystick support in your kernel?"  I have a gamepad that at least one other app can see, is there someway to make my gamepad show up in the expected place?
[15:21] <grawity> Hmmm.
[15:21] <erUSUL> Nemoniko: ok; your card is being identified and even is configured already.
[15:21] <grawity> brz: netstat -ltn | grep :113
[15:21] <innomen> !gamepad
[15:21] <jrib> noobez: file extensions are not the same as mime types.  Anyway, I have better stuff to do.  Good luck with your issue.
[15:21] <grawity> brz: See if it's listening on both tcp and tcp6.
[15:21] <innomen> !joystick
[15:21] <brz> tcp        0      0 <IP_ADDRESS>:113             <IP_ADDRESS>:*               LISTEN
[15:21] <purvesh> simplexio, pls if u know then solve my problem??????????
[15:21] <grawity> brz: That one is IPv4 only.
[15:22] <brz> hrmm
[15:22] <noobez> jrib: jerk
[15:22] <Lylith> are there any tech experts here? i need help with something and google is failing me......
[15:22] <brz> I need to add :: ?
[15:22] <erUSUL> !ask | Lylith
[15:22] <rmrfslash> What is the equivalent to Phonon in GTK?
[15:22] <abhifx> grawity : yes
[15:22] <Lylith> ._.;;
[15:22] <innomen> noobez, mind running yuor problem past me?
[15:22] <erUSUL> rmrfslash: gstreamer
[15:22] <jMCg> you can pipe stuff through people.. that's awesome.
[15:22] <innomen> noobez, i'm curious
[15:23] <sipior> innomen: most of his problems had little to do with his computer, i think.
[15:23] <grawity> Lylith: One of #ubuntu rules. We hate asking what is that "something" you need help with.
[15:23] <Lylith> ._.;;;; sorry
[15:23] <innomen> sipior, eh, still curious, thanks though  :)
[15:23] <brz> grawity: any idea on how to make it listen on v6?
[15:23] <rmrfslash> What media players use gstreamer? VLC?
[15:23] <AliceMargatroid> Lylith, yes, there are tech experts here.
[15:23] <sipior> innomen: i think he's logged off.
[15:23] <innomen> oh
[15:23] <brz> grawity: despite the fact it was working previously on v6 without any other editing :P?
[15:23] <Lylith> well, its sorta complicated actually.. im not really sure how to ask..
[15:23] <erUSUL> rmrfslash: no; totem Rb banshee..
[15:23] <AliceMargatroid> Happy?
[15:23] <innomen> sipior, h'duh
[15:23] <innomen> lol
[15:24] <rmrfslash> I know Amarok uses Phonon which has no support right now for them to make a equalizer :P
[15:24] <erUSUL> rmrfslash: vlc uses its own framwork as does xine
[15:24] <rmrfslash> I see.
[15:24] <Lylith> would it be ok if i explained the situation, then tried to ask?
[15:24] <rmrfslash> Wait... I thought Amarok uses Phonon? They told me there's no equalizer cuz there's no support in Phonon yet/
[15:24] <grawity> brz: I'm not sure oidentd _can_ listen on v6... (Anyway, things like that happen often on the intercybernetspacetubes. "Heisenbugs" are the worst type)
[15:24] <Pici> Lylith: Yes, but please try to keep it on one line so that it is easy to track.
[15:24] <innomen> Lylith, i hate that, when you have a problem that cant be summerized, i have those form time to time
[15:25] <abhifx> rmrfslash : banshee uses gstreamer
[15:25] <rmrfslash> But it says in the preferences for Amarok to use Xine
[15:25] <unr3a1> whats the command to back up all the installed applications?
[15:25] <unr3a1> clone or something?
[15:25] <Nemoniko> erUSUL: how can configure my card?, can u helpme?
[15:25] <erUSUL> rmrfslash: yes amarok uses phonon but phonon is a thing layer on top of gstreamer or libxine or directX (in windows)
[15:25] <innomen> Pici, could you convey an understanding of the standard model in 140 characters or less for me so its easy? that would be cool
[15:25] <rmrfslash> I see.
[15:25] <grawity> innomen: Heh
[15:25] <erUSUL> Nemoniko: as i said is already configured... it has ip and mask and everything needed
[15:25] <sevodnya> Nemoniko: What type of card, exactly?
[15:26] <erUSUL> rmrfslash: thin layer*
[15:26] <rmrfslash> So phonon is an abstraction layer
[15:26] <brz> grawity: must of been a freak act of nature, because I primarily use v6 and worked b4. Strange, when I upgraded the distro I can't even get standard irssi op scripts to work, and I have to now "run ubuntu in low graphics mode"
[15:26] <innomen> grawity, pet peeve, some things can't be fit into neat little boxes :)
[15:26] <erUSUL> rmrfslash: yes; and this is getting offtopic... ;P
[15:26] <rmrfslash> right
[15:26] <rmrfslash> thanks though, that makes sense
[15:26] <erUSUL> rmrfslash: no problem :)
[15:27] <brynjarh> how can I get g++ 3.4 on ubuntu jaunty? I already have gcc 3.4, gcc 4.3 and g++ 4.3 (they are in the repositories).
[15:27] <matu> plz how to get rid of scrollkeeper-up ?
[15:28] <simplexio> brz: well check your ipv6/4 status,
[15:28] <kahen> ealkmaar, well. you could for starters check if your harddrive is stuck in PIO mode. "cat /etc/fstab" first to find the device name of your hard drive (probably /dev/sda or /dev/hda) and then "sudo hdparm -i" to see the status on the drive
[15:28] <Lylith> well, im on a laptop, it was built for vista and of course had vista installed on it, wich is most of the problem... vista crashed over 60 times within 3 days, and thats just all i cared to count.. well, after that i decided to go back to linux permanently, so now im on ubuntu 9.4 and at first everything worked great, no stalls no slowdowns nothing bad at all, but now the system keeps stalling for a second at a time, but its so frequen
[15:28] <Lylith> t that its impossible to ignore.. i think it might be my hdd is damaged, but im not sure how to check and see, or repair it if it is.. any suggestions? i prefer the most simple reply but anything is nice...
[15:28] <brz> I'm connect to both v6/v4 IRC networks as we speak!
[15:29] <abhifx> is there a push email software for ubuntu?
[15:29] <ealkmaar> wow kahen iḿ lucky i saw that i think, i can access the command line, and itś doing it in the 32-bit version aswell
[15:29] <unr3a1> does anyone know what the command is to backup all the installed apps?
[15:29] <ealkmaar> but iḿ pretty sure its not in PIO mode
[15:29] <simplexio> Lylith: hardware problem
[15:29] <erUSUL> Lylith: check if errors show up in system logs, /var/log/messages and /var/log/syslog
[15:29] <grawity> abhifx: What do you mean by push email?
[15:29] <simplexio> Lylith: check dmesg
[15:29] <ealkmaar> since it wont get past it
[15:29] <innomen> Lylith, i agree it sounds like hardware, may not be the hdd though, what makes you think it's the hdd?
[15:29] <sybariten> I need to make something clear: unetbootin, the tool to make live USB distros, is not used to take _any_ distro image, and make a USB is it? It only takes "live" distros?
[15:30] <sybariten> I'm looking for a way to make a ubuntu live distro for USB, for an EEE computer. And i have not really seen any live distros of that
[15:30] <abhifx> grawity : thats hard to explain, where i dont have to click send and recive and emails will be automatically retrieve
[15:30] <Lylith> wouldnt several crashes per hour damage the hdd?.. what else could it be? the os is a fresh install...
[15:30] <sybariten> if Unetbootin takes any image, i could just take the EEEubuntu designed for install, and make a usb of it.. but i guess not
[15:31] <simplexio> Lylith: ot memory, but that causes segmentation fault in linux, noy just stalls
[15:31] <grawity> abhifx: Do you use IMAP or POP3 for receiving your mail?
[15:31] <grawity> abhifx: IMAP has a command, called 'IMAP IDLE', that can do something like that.
[15:31] <abhifx> grawity : i want to push gmail and yahoo
[15:31] <simplexio> Lylith: usually just stalls are  caused by hd which for somereason wants to wait before serving data
[15:31] <grawity> abhifx: Does Yahoo! have IMAP?
[15:32] <grawity> abhifx: I know Gmail does, and I've used IDLE with it.
[15:32] <brahmana> Hi all,
[15:32] <grawity> abhifx: Also, what email client are you using?
[15:32] <lstarnes> grawity: I don't think its free service does
[15:32] <phux> Haiy0
[15:32] <erUSUL> Lylith: again check if errors show up in system logs, /var/log/messages and /var/log/syslog... hard disk stalls usually get logged there
[15:32] <simplexio> Lylith: its actually easy to test, just run livecd and se if it stall, if not then its not hd
[15:32] <Greenstuff> how do you suspend ubuntu server 9.04 from terminal?
[15:32] <brahmana> I am on Hardy Heron and the /etc/capabilities file is missing. Is it expected?
[15:32] <grawity> abhifx: Thunderbird supports IMAP IDLE, I used it with Gmail.
[15:32] <grawity> Greenstuff: pm-suspend
[15:32] <grawity> abhifx: But Evolution doesn't. Yahoo does not have IMAP at all.
[15:32] <lstarnes> brahmana: I believe so
[15:33] <abhifx> grawity : thats gud news for me. is there an add on for yahoo in thunderbird
[15:33] <brahmana> lstarnes: Is it because there is another location from the the caps are picked or per-user caps are not supported in Hardy
[15:33] <brahmana> ?
[15:33] <abhifx> grawity : how do i enable this idle stuff
[15:33] <Zajkos> Co kurwa?
[15:33] <erUSUL> !pl
[15:33] <lstarnes> brahmana: I don't know
[15:33] <grawity> abhifx: No, it simply will not work with Yahoo. The nearest you can get is to set up checking every 1 minute.
[15:34] <grawity> abhifx: But for Gmail, simply set up an IMAP account, and IDLE will work automatically.
[15:34] <Lylith> well, the reason i say "stall" is because thats the only word i can think of to describe it, its like.. everything freezes for a second then continues, music is the best way to spot it because it sounds like a cd skipping.. even though their all mp3s (all of wich are new, i checked them first, the the whole system freezes too, so its not the mp3s im sure)  and good idea... but live cd is sorta slow so i probably wouldnt notice the stal
[15:34] <Lylith> ling from it..
[15:34] <abhifx> grawity : thanks man, u r gr8
[15:34] <brahmana> lstarnes: Umh.. So any documentation telling me the reason for the missing file?

[15:35] <grawity> erUSUL: +1
[15:35] <simplexio> Lylith: did dmesg or logs tell you anything
[15:35] <brahmana> lstarnes: Based on which you believe it is expected to be missing.
[15:35] <Lylith> havnt checked yet, one sec
[15:35] <grawity> abhifx: Here, http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=77662 is a tutorial if you need.
[15:35] <Lylith> dmesg is a terminal command right?
[15:35] <lstarnes> brahmana: I don't have it either in hardy and I haven't needed to use it, so I don't know anything about why it is missing or even what it is used for
[15:35] <abhifx> grawity : hm... gmail was pretty easy to setup in thunderbird, i cant configure yahoo, and how do i set it to check for every few minutes
[15:35] <grawity> lstarnes: Yep.
[15:35] <lstarnes> Lylith: yes
[15:35] <purvesh> simplexio, hello ..... may be you r busy.....?
[15:35] <simplexio> Lylith: ya
[15:36] <erUSUL> Lylith: yes
[15:36] <Lylith> k one sec
[15:36] <grawity> abhifx: You must configure Gmail for IMAP. POP3 will not have "push".
[15:36] <simplexio> it seems that we have several yes men here
[15:36] <brahmana> lstarnes: Ok.
[15:36] <grawity> abhifx: And for Yahoo!, I think you need to pay for that.
[15:37] <innomen> how can i confirm my pc sees a given usb device, in this case a game pad
[15:37] <abhifx> grawity : youch! thanks for warning. you really helped me man.
[15:37] <lstarnes> innomen: try lsusb
[15:37] <erUSUL> innomen: lsusb
[15:37] <Greenstuff> sudo pm-suspend doesn't do much
[15:37] <innomen> lstarnes, i tried that half of them says "linux corperation"
[15:37] <zealiod> how can i extract a tar to a specific directorory... something like this "tar -xvf file.tar.gz /dir/here"
[15:38] <simplexio> innomen: dmesg usually shows if something is atached/removed computer
[15:38] <Lylith> oh my........ i sorta thought it could be this but i didnt want to believe it... x.x" its several thousand errors per second, from my wireless card..    they look like this,  ath5k phy0: noise floor calibration timeout (2412mhz)
[15:38] <erUSUL> zealiod: tar -xvf file.tar.gz -C /dir/here
[15:38] <innomen> simplexio, one moemnt
[15:38] <erUSUL> zealiod: «man tar» has all the details ;P
[15:38] <simplexio> Lylith: so, your problem in linux and visva is that wireless driver timeouts and probably blocks stuff
[15:38] <Lylith> im going to disable my wireless card for a few minutes and see what happens, be right back
[15:39] <innomen> simplexio, [36296.945042] generic-usb 0003:0F30:010B.0004: input,hidraw3: USB HID v1.10 Joystick [Jess Tech GGE909 PC Recoil Pad] on usb-0000:00:1d.1-1/input0
[15:39] <Lylith> actually, in vista i read the log from each crash, each said operating system fail
[15:39] <zealiod> thanks!
[15:40] <innomen> that looks like it, now when i do joy2key it says ..."Error opening /dev/js0!"
[15:40] <simplexio> Lylith: yep. but probably problem was same in visva, bad wireless card or driver
[15:40] <innomen> err
[15:40] <Lylith> (i kept my wireless card disabled in vista because i couldnt connect to anything with it)
[15:40] <innomen> simplexio, that looks like it, now when i do joy2key it says ..."Error opening /dev/js0!" is there some way given the dmesg info to correct this problem?
[15:41] <gartral> innomen: get jscalibrator
[15:41] <mweichert> does anyone know if you can remove disks from an array created with mdadm using uuids or 'disk numbers' ?
[15:41] <innomen> gardar, will do
[15:42] <ViaNocturna> hey people, can anyone help me with this error at boot:"ACPI: EC: Input buffer not empty, aborting transaction", causing battery on my 9.04 to be recognised as AC power?
[15:43] <Lylith> well, after disabling the wireless card.. no stalls at all now.. X.X;; im just glad my system isnt going to die like my last one..  thank you all very much for all your help, and sorry if i was a bit annoying or didnt follow the rules accordingly, this is actually my first time using this chat ;;>.>
[15:43] <erUSUL> mweichert: use /dev/disk/by-uuid/ or /dev/disk/by-label/ or /dev/disk/by-id/ .... etc
[15:43] <simplexio> innomen: your system dosent map js0 right, try find real device for it
[15:43] <mweichert> erUSUL, I thought of that, but my USB drives are not listed in /dev/disk/by-uuid
[15:44] <erUSUL> mweichert: well from reading the man page i do not think mdadm accepts anything but dev nodes
[15:44] <innomen> simplexico, in the device manager app, it gives me a buinch of information about it, /dev/input/event7 is that helpful?
[15:44] <simplexio> Lylith: for futire reference.. usually dmesg shows all strange and intresting stuff about hw<->kernel communication
[15:45] <mweichert> erUSUL, ok thanks. That's what I found too but thought maybe there was something else I could try
[15:45] <simplexio> innomen: maybe.. if i recall right you could try to make symlink from /dev/input/event7 to /dev/js0
[15:46] <simplexio> innomen: or tell whatever program you use to use /dev/input/event7 isntead js0
[15:46] <erUSUL> mweichert: maybe you can create/modify some udev rules to assing persistent dev nodes to your usb disks. that would be what you want
[15:46] <t0s> how do i got ubuntu back to its original theme?
[15:47] <mweichert> erUSUL, yes, I asked about that a while back but I was told that it was likely impossible
[15:47] <innomen> simplexio, jscalibrator finds the gamepad at /dev/input/js0 joy2key is looking in /dev/js0
[15:47] <mweichert> erUSUL, but that would surely make things easier
[15:47] <innomen> simplexio, now out of curiosisty would it let me cut and paste that "folder" ? heheh
[15:47] <ViaNocturna> t0s: you mean the theme as in the brown theme?
[15:47] <t0s> yes
[15:47] <simplexio> innomen: in console use ls -la in /dev/input/ and see structure of that dir
[15:47] <t0s> i deleted the top panel by mistake
[15:47] <erUSUL> mweichert: i do not see why this would be impossible,,,
[15:47] <t0s> just want to get it back to original
[15:48] <simplexio> innomen: you can access to same device using various paths
[15:48] <Pici> !resetpanels | t0s
[15:48] <t0s> thanks
[15:49] <mbeierl> anyone use samba4 on jaunty?  installing it wants to remove ubuntu-desktop and fusesmb, etc.  Can these not use samba4?
[15:49] <innomen> simplexio, ok i need to read up

[15:49] <innomen> !symlink
[15:50] <innomen> well thats not at all helpful lol
[15:50]  * innomen googles
[15:50] <ViaNocturna> t0s: you mean the theme as in the brown theme?'ACPI: EC: Input buffer not empty, aborting transaction'....i get it at boot
[15:50] <ViaNocturna> oops
[15:50] <jtholmes> has anyone gotten ipaq h2200 to sync with Kontact under Kde4 on Kubuntu
[15:51] <ViaNocturna> Anyone knows what this means, even if you cant fix it 'ACPI: EC: Input buffer not empty, aborting transaction'....i get it at boot
[15:51] <phongphrai> hi everyone
[15:51] <Lylith> oh another thing i would like to ask about,  before my last fresh install (wich i had to do to get the ath5k drivers back for my wireless to work again) i switched to the madwifi drivers from the hardware drivers tab in system menu, well, at the time i didnt know exactly what i was doing, so i enabled the madwifi drivers, wich made my wireless card work, but.. after rebooting the system the wlan0 interface completely disappeared from t
[15:51] <Lylith> he machine.. as if it never existed, is that caused by the drivers themselves? i sorta wanna try using that again and see what happens, since it worked great before... but if it makes my card disappear after reboot im not sure if i wanna try it.. any ideas on this one?
[15:51] <yassin_> hello
[15:51] <innomen> ahh ok, how would i create a symlink from /dev/input/js0 to /dev/js0 ?
[15:51] <innomen> gardar, thanks btw, jscalibrator is cool and useful
[15:52] <phongphrai> can someone understand why i cannot open nautilus links (like home) inside gnome-panel ???
[15:52] <yassin_> please how i could specify the location to download from Terminal via wget command
[15:52] <Greenstuff> !ls
[15:52] <Greenstuff> !symlink
[15:52] <manuel_> che player utilizzate per riprodurre i .3gp ?
[15:53] <innomen> Greenstuff, crap isnt it, its like asking about your transmission and it telling you that cars exist
[15:53] <unr3a1> !clone
[15:53] <yassin_> any one help me?
[15:53] <Dr_Willis> yassin_:  you have checked the wget manual? I just cd to where i want it to go and use the wget command. (im lazy)
[15:53] <Swian> can anyone recommend any MMORPG for Ubuntu?
[15:54] <bazhang> !games > Swian
[15:54] <ViaNocturna> Is there anyone who understands that message, because I'm running on laptop battery but it's listed as AC power so i cant tell when power needs charging
[15:54] <Swian> thanks
[15:54] <innomen> Dr_Willis, can you explain hw to make a symlink?
[15:54] <Swian> !games
[15:54] <Dr_Willis> innomen:  ln -a foo bar
[15:54] <Dr_Willis> oops
[15:55] <Dr_Willis> innomen:  ln -s foo bar
[15:55] <bazhang> Swian, the search terms top 25 games for linux will help also
[15:55] <yassin_> Dr-Willis , thank you
[15:55] <innomen> foo bar? lol
[15:55] <innomen> really?
[15:55] <Dr_Willis> 'think, learn, apply'
[15:55] <Dr_Willis> 'man ln' for details
[15:55] <ealkmaar> safe graphical mode seemed to have done the trick
[15:55] <Dr_Willis> and in most cases you do want 'soft links' (ie: ln -s )
[15:55] <innomen> Dr_Willis, no i get it, yur using foo and bar as place holders i just thought it was funny
[15:55] <jrib> innomen: ln -s target name   is a nice way to remember it imo
[15:56] <innomen> jrib, yea i got it, just thought it was funny :)
[15:56] <^mNotIntelligent> jrib, you're right
[15:56] <mweichert> erUSUL, actually the system I'll be using this setup on uses hotplug, not udev
[15:56] <Dr_Willis> i alwyas get it backwards.. becuase i think i have it backwards so i reverse it.. when i was right the first time..
[15:56] <baskar> hi to all
[15:57] <^mNotIntelligent> jrib, quite often i got confused about these two and i use the same trick
[15:57] <^mNotIntelligent> hi, baskar
[15:57] <baskar> hi
[15:57] <innomen> so...( ln -s /dev/input/js0 /dev/js0 ) would make an app looking in dev/ see the file actually in /dev/input ?
[15:57] <Dr_Willis> ln -s FROM  TO
[15:57] <phongphrai> can someone understand why i cannot open nautilus links (like home) inside gnome-panel ???
[15:57] <Dr_Willis> :)
[15:57] <ViaNocturna> "ACPI: EC: Input buffer not empty, aborting transaction", anyone able to translate that to English?
[15:57] <innomen> ok
[15:58] <omgd> Whats the comm and to make a file executable?
[15:58] <omgd> Chmod -x
[15:58] <omgd> ??
[15:58] <Dr_Willis> chmod
[15:59] <jrib> !permissions > omgd
[15:59] <Dr_Willis> +x
[15:59] <ViaNocturna> chmod +x
[15:59] <omgd> Kk
[15:59] <omgd> Ty
[15:59] <innomen> ok! that did it, thanks guys, now i just have to learn how to use joy2key heheh
[16:00] <simplexio> ViaNocturna: it means that some inout buffer is not empty (like it probably should be) an therefor  transaction is aborted
[16:00] <phongphrai> please someone ...

[16:04] <jiohdi> when you create a new acct, is there anything outside the home directory that is added?
[16:04] <phongphrai> please help, i cannot open Home from Places menu
[16:04] <simplexio> ViaNocturna: its sound acpi problem, google about fixing it
[16:05] <jrib> jiohdi: yes
[16:05] <itaku> simplexio: that command just didnt do anything
[16:05] <ViaNocturna> i did that too and ill be honest with you, i couldnt understand anything they were saying, since they reffered to changing code in the kernel but with no instructions
[16:06] <ViaNocturna> well ill go googling again, thanks for your explanation
[16:07] <innomen> Can someone fill in the blanks on this one for me? "INSTALLATION (for GNU/Linux) 1. Install SDL 2. Run run.sh"
[16:07] <simplexio> itaku: then try ctrl+alt F7 , 8 9 10 ... until you have tried all
[16:07] <innomen> i've extracted the zip, its' supposed ot be a java app, that line is from the readme in the zip, what does SDL mean?
[16:08] <jrib> innomen: what are you trying to install?
[16:08] <innomen> jrib, jojsticken
[16:08] <itaku> simplexio: did, all of them are terminal
[16:08] <simplexio> innomen: i think its means 'sudo apt-get install libsdl'
[16:08] <jrib> innomen: what blanks do you need filled in exactly?

[16:09] <lenswipe> hi
[16:09] <heatmzzr> tar -vxf alsa-driver-1.0.20.tar.gz      (this is the command I was told to use to open alsa-driver-1.0.20.tar.bz2) what am I missing.. it says no such file or directory....??? I downloaded the file to my desktop but im doing something wrong.. i can extract the file to the desktop but i dont know where it should go
[16:09] <lenswipe> im looking for a calendar and contacts server anyone any ideas?
[16:09] <simplexio> itaky and 12 and 11 just black ?,, see cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log to see why Xorg dosent start
[16:09] <innomen> simplexio, E: Couldn't find package libsdl
[16:09] <jrib> heatmzzr: why are you doing this?
[16:09] <itaku> 12 and 11 dont do anything
[16:10] <bazhang> !ultimate | pjarnahom
[16:10] <Aijse> OK here goes, I got folder that is owned by group some user and the group mythtv. This folder is shared through samba, directory mask = 770 and create mask 770 aswell. Now some user that is in the mythtv goup on  the server, wants to put a file in the directory but cant log into the server while user and pw are correct. Am I overlooking some options?
[16:10] <jrib> !apt > innomen
[16:10] <innomen> jrib: well, whats SDL and how do i "Run" this .sh file?
[16:10] <simplexio> innomen: use tab to find choises ther is libsdl1.2
[16:10] <jrib> innomen: sdl is a library, it's in the ubuntu repositories
[16:10] <innomen> simplexio, ahh
[16:10] <JonJ> lenswipe: There are several. Zimbra, Scalix, obm, openxchange, citadel
[16:11] <simplexio> itaku: are you sure that you didnt start system in single user mode ?
[16:11] <lenswipe> JonJ, are they easy to setup?
[16:11] <innomen> simplexio, already installed part, of ubuntu apprently, ok, whats this .sh file?
[16:11] <itaku> simplexio: i just rebooted, and turned on this way
[16:11] <jrib> !alsa | heatmzzr
[16:11] <lenswipe> JonJ, and more importantly are they workable on a home DSL connection - im not wanting something that requires the use of sendmail or something (My ISP blocks sendmail and other MTAs)
[16:11] <simplexio> itaku: well not sure does basic install include 'startx' but i have it or you could try just 'X' if X even starts
[16:11] <innomen> ls
[16:11] <jrib> heatmzzr: I think I remember seeing install instructions for alsa there...  You need to "cd ~/Desktop" then run your tar command
[16:11] <innomen> lol wrong window
[16:11] <JonJ> lenswipe: I don't use any of them, but setting up citadel wasn't all that hard last time I did it. But they do require some setup and maintenance. Maybe phpgroupware could be an idea
[16:12] <simplexio> innomen: its shell script, execute 'sh ./run.sh'
[16:12] <lenswipe> JonJ, could be, is that a bit like NovellGroupWare?
[16:12] <heatmzzr> tar command gives errors
[16:12] <itaku> yeah that worked
[16:12] <jrib> heatmzzr: what error...?
[16:12] <itaku> thanks

[16:12] <heatmzzr> tar -vfvj alsa-driver-1.0.20.tar.gz
[16:12] <heatmzzr> tar: You must specify one of the `-Acdtrux' options
[16:12] <jrib> heatmzzr: just do tar xf
[16:12] <Aijse> OK here goes, I got folder that is owned by  some user and the group mythtv. This folder is shared through samba. In SMB.conf for this share I gotdirectory mask = 770 and create mask 770 aswell. Now some user that is in the mythtv goup on  the server, wants to put a file in the directory but cant log into the server while user and pw are correct. Am I overlooking some options? sorry for repost but I created some confusements.
[16:12] <Dr_Willis> x = extract
[16:13] <JonJ> lenswipe: Sorry, you're way out of what I know. I have never seen Novells Groupware.. Citadel does have its own MTA though
[16:13] <FloodBot2> !netsplit
[16:13] <lenswipe> JonJ, ok :)
[16:13] <heatmzzr> will that simply extract to the desktop cause ive done that with right click,,
[16:13] <jrib> heatmzzr: yes.
[16:13] <Pici> heatmzzr: I don't think you're specifying the proper filename. You said you have something.tar.bz2 but all your example commands say something.tar.gz
[16:14] <innomen> simplexio, would it help you think if i installed java to run this java app? :P
[16:14] <heatmzzr> jrib: so once i take the other steps of compiling, the files will end up where they need to be
[16:14] <jrib> heatmzzr: if you take the proper steps, sure...
[16:14] <heatmzzr> jrib: ill send you the thread
[16:14] <simplexio> innomen: of course it probably could help :)

[16:15] <iceroot> slestak_: yes, and yes, thunderbird cant write to ldap

[16:16] <slestak_> iceroot: not my issue, i have a wicked timeout when querying gal if I typo and backspace
[16:16] <yassin_> oo
[16:16] <jrib> jiohdi: what is a "startup file"?
[16:16] <innomen> simplexio, i will if the one in add/remove isn't helpful
[16:16] <slestak_> iceroot: almost like it is doing a GAL lookup as im backspacing for each string, eg.  (word {bs} wor {bs} wo {bs} w).
[16:17] <jiohdi> jrib, I dont know, but something is corrupted... I made a new acct and it works just fine, so I was thinking...
[16:17] <yassin_> pls how could i extract tar.gz in terminal?
[16:17] <slestak_> iceroot: it will pause for 30-45 seconds

[16:17] <yassin_> lstarnes , thank you
[16:17] <Dr_Willis> !info unp | yassin_
[16:17] <lstarnes> yassin_: that should ba xzf nor zxf

[16:19] <Guest39500> eg a.b.com to <IP_ADDRESS>

[16:19] <webfreakz> why is `tar xzf` better than `tar zxf`?
[16:19] <itaku> now my mic and sound doesnt work
[16:20] <slestak_> webfreakz: they are the same
[16:20] <Dr_Willis> webfreakz:  its not..  x= extract z = archive type f = using this fike

[16:20] <itaku> after i rebooted, i had a terminal and i had to type startx to get the desktop up, and now my sound doesnt work
[16:20] <_lobo> Guest39500: man hosts, then look in the "example"-section
[16:21] <webfreakz> Dr_Willis: I know what the parameters are for, but someone said the following: "(5:17:39 PM) lstarnes: yassin_: that should ba xzf nor zxf"
[16:21] <webfreakz> or maybe my sarcasm-detector is broken? :P
[16:21] <jrib> jiohdi: yeah, you can create a new directory and copy /etc/skel/, then make sure ownership is ok
[16:22] <heatmzzr> jrib: ? did you get all that
[16:22] <bEe_> hi
[16:22] <ViaNocturna> Hello again, almost there, I found a workaround to fix a problem I have but it mentions code and 'ec.c'...where the heck do i find ec.c

[16:25] <karex> yassin: حماس
[16:25] <yassin_> how could i know the cache of the VGa Card from terminal?
[16:25] <ViaNocturna> does anyone know how to edit ec.c
[16:25] <bEe_> ok.. just use kde4 alternative layout switching
[16:26] <yariv> ViaNocturna: what do you mean edit ec.c?
[16:26] <yariv> ViaNocturna: Do you mean etc.c?
[16:26] <yassin_> how could i know the cache of the VGa Card from terminal? HELP
[16:26] <simplexio> ViaNocturna: its probably in kernel source, if we are still talking about your acpi problem
[16:26] <ViaNocturna> well i have a problem with acpi, found a workaround but it all refers to ec.c
[16:27] <ViaNocturna> yeah
[16:27] <karex> bazhang: i'm sorry, i find that my english was bad, and then I (try) to update it:)
[16:27] <simplexio> ViaNocturna: get kernel source, edit right .c files ( its C, you know what it means right) compile new kernel, install it and boot
[16:27] <ViaNocturna> aaaah ok now i get it
[16:27] <webfreakz> yassin_: check out `sudo lshw` and give it a try?
[16:27] <ViaNocturna> yeah i know C
[16:28] <yariv> ViaNocturna: Be very careful when you edit kernel files and recompile them, make sure you havent missed any thing.
[16:28] <Dr_Willis> Guest39500:  you dont use /etc/hosts for that  - that i know of..
[16:28] <Guest39500> Dr_Willis: so how else is it possible?
[16:28] <webfreakz> yassin_: or `sudo lspci` and both manual pages.
[16:28] <ViaNocturna> ya know, i think it probably is worth waiting till its fixed lol
[16:28] <Dr_Willis> Guest39500:  tell the channel what it is you are trying to acomplish exactly
[16:29] <ViaNocturna> well thanks, im off now, wont bug you anymore lol
[16:29] <simplexio> ViaNocturna: so, then grap coompile kernel ubuntu way howto and start to roll new one, if you are willing to use custom kernel then try lastest stable first. <IP_ADDRESS> from kernel.org
[16:29] <KingOfDos> Does somebody know a way to have multiple X sessions at one monitor?
[16:29] <yariv> ViaNocturna: Feel free to ask any thing you need help with in here :)
[16:29] <simplexio> ViaNocturna: and then try edit that ec.c
[16:29] <Guest39500> Dr_Willis: i have nginx and mysql and php running and i'd like to redirect wildcard subdomains for foo.com to locaclhost
[16:29] <ViaNocturna> ok well thank you very much for your help
[16:30] <simplexio> ViaNocturna: .30 is little more ahead that .28 or what ever ubuntu stock kernel nowdays is. i run latest vanilla stable alltimes
[16:32] <Aijse> How can I make the subfolders of a samba share writable? the share directly is writable.
[16:33] <ibqn> what is S-Lang?
[16:33] <ryanrhee901> lsb_release -a shows 'ubuntu 8.04.3 LTS' but uname -r shows <IP_ADDRESS>, which is a 8.10 kernel. Can anyone tell me what's going on?
[16:33] <ibqn> ryanrhee901, you have updated your kernel via update...
[16:34] <ibqn> ...manager
[16:34] <ryanrhee901> update manager?
[16:34] <ryanrhee901> i only have console access to the machine. i'm guessing that's sudo apt-get dist update?
[16:35] <ibqn> ryanrhee901, LTS does mean long time support, so there are many updates for this version, so it is up to date
[16:35] <itaku> my sound and mic doesnt work
[16:35] <eni> what's the best driver for ATI cards in 8.04 ? ATI or FGLRX ?
[16:35] <ryanrhee901> oh okay.
[16:35] <ryanrhee901> then my next question is, when i go to /lib/modules, i only see four folders, and they're all 2.6.4-*
[16:35] <ryanrhee901> i mean, 2.6.24-*
[16:36] <ryanrhee901> so when i run 'modprobe tun', i get an error such as FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/<IP_ADDRESS>/modules.dep: No such file or directory
[16:36] <Panzer> yo
[16:36] <Mike_lifeguard> Is there a way to reference the clipboard from terminal? To do something like cat /dev/clipboard > file
[16:36] <ryanrhee901> is there a way i can get the modules for <IP_ADDRESS> onto /lib/modules/ ?
[16:37] <ibqn> ryanrhee901, what is tun?
[16:37] <iaian> Mike_lifeguard, I'm pretty sure there is an application /similiar/ to that
[16:37] <ryanrhee901> tunnel interface
[16:37] <iaian> xclip - command line interface to X selections
[16:37] <ryanrhee901> i tried "modprobe --set-version 2.6.26-26-server tun"
[16:38] <ryanrhee901> which returned FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.26-26-server/modules.dep: No such file or directory. I don't know how to fix this, but i'm hoping having the correct version will work
[16:38] <itaku> i get alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such file or directory when i type alsamixer and my sound doesnt work
[16:38] <Mike_lifeguard> iaian: cool, thx

[16:39] <lstarnes> ryanrhee901: are you using a custom kernel?
[16:39] <ryanrhee901> is the error message i get if i specify a version listed in /lib/modules/ in the modprobe command
[16:40] <innomen> *facepalm* is there a gui for joy2key (the one and only working gamepad/joystick key remapper that actually will install/compile/run) ?
[16:40] <ryanrhee901> i don't think so. i didn't install this version of ubuntu myself so i'm not totally sure
[16:40] <ryanrhee901> is there a way to enable "module support"
[16:40] <ibqn> ryanrhee901, you do not have this module enabled
[16:40] <ryanrhee901> on a kernel?
[16:40] <ryanrhee901> how do i enable it?
[16:40] <pencique> Is there a way to determine the URL of an audio stream played from within flash?
[16:41] <sipior> ryanrhee901: you configure the kernel with the correct option set, and then rebuild it.
[16:42] <ryanrhee901> sipior: does that mean i have to re-install the kernel?
[16:42] <sipior> ryanrhee901: yep. ensure that CONFIG_MODULES is set to "y"
[16:42] <ryanrhee901> sipior: could you point me to a guide for re-installing the kernel please? =X
[16:42] <sipior> ryanrhee901: well, rebuild and then reinstall, to be clear.
[16:43] <sipior> ryanrhee901: any reason you can't use the default kernel shipped with the system?
[16:43] <ryanrhee901> well, i'm just trying to get modprobe to work
[16:43] <ryanrhee901> i don't know if i can or not
[16:44] <sipior> ryanrhee901: what's the output of "uname -a"?
[16:44] <comrade_tuttle> Could any one help me install a file onto my computer, i have done chmod but when i run it it just opens as a folder in the terminal. I'm trying to install atmosphir if that helps any. But there is no bootable its all text files and .png. could it be a binary just saved as an archaived folder and if so how do i boot this
[16:44] <dholbach> Ubuntu Developer Week - last day, starting in 16 minutes in #ubuntu-classroom - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDeveloperWeek
[16:44] <ryanrhee901> Linux seraph.ryanrhee.net <IP_ADDRESS> #2 SMP Sat Aug 16 08:57:58 EDT 2008 i686 GNU/Linux
[16:44] <yassin_> please
[16:44] <ryanrhee901> sipjor
[16:45] <comrade_tuttle> I have checked both ubuntu forums atmosphir forums and google and have found nothing to my query.
[16:45] <stercor> What makes KTorrent so much fast than Azureus and Transmission?
[16:45] <stercor> s/fast/faster/.
[16:45] <yassin_> how could i develop via Qt4 on ubuntu , any know
[16:45] <ryanrhee901> sipior, while i have the <IP_ADDRESS> kernel, /lib/modules only shows 2.6.24-*
[16:45] <sipior> ryanrhee901: might be simplest if you just install the "linux-image" package, which will install an appropriate ubuntu-modified kernel on your system.
[16:46] <sipior> ryanrhee901: right, it won't build /lib/modules if there's no module support in the kernel.
[16:46] <ryanrhee901> sipior: thru apt-get? would that enable module support for the kernel being installeD?
[16:46] <maco> yassin_: you might want qt4-designer and kdevelope
[16:46] <maco> yassin_: kdevelop
[16:46] <yassin_> yes
[16:46] <sipior> ryanrhee901: yes, once you rebooted into that kernel.
[16:47] <sipior> ryanrhee901: what module are you trying to install?
[16:47] <ryanrhee901> sipior: i'm trying to use the tun/tap interface using modprobe
[16:47] <yassin_> maco, i know about visualbasic .net in window and i learned some lessons in python language
[16:47] <harrachi> hi,
[16:47] <ryanrhee901> sipior: so after running apt-get install linux-image, just reboot?
[16:47] <bawtboi> how to get this thing work
[16:47] <yassin_> maco, how i get start to desien via QT4
[16:47] <maco> yassin_: well visual basic is a windows thing. for qt youre either going to want PyQt or learn C++
[16:48] <sipior> ryanrhee901: make sure you choose the correct kernel at boot. note the kernel version that apt-get installs, and select that one.
[16:48] <yassin_> yes PYQT
[16:48] <harrachi> am trying to install a program and when i type ./configure it says no such file or directory
[16:48] <bawtboi> mm.. i can't mount a network-shared folder on my ubuntu
[16:48] <ryanrhee901> sipior: how can i choose the kernel version at boot? i only have remote SSH access to the physical machine.
[16:48] <heatmzzr> how do you in terminal correctly extract a bz2 file so stuff goes where it is supposed to?
[16:48] <bawtboi> it says TCP name not found
[16:48] <yassin_> maco; i want to learn how  develop under this inviroment
[16:49] <maco> yassin_: you type out your python in a file, save it, and type "python filename"
[16:49] <maco> yassin_: pretty straightforward
[16:49] <zealiod> im using tar -xvf, but the archive contains directories, which i want to extract and create them on the fly, but it only seems to want to extract them when I sudo...
[16:49] <sipior> ryanrhee901: i missed that part. well, it will probably boot to the correct kernel by default, but it would be nice to have someone on the other end to press the right buttons on the off chance it doesn't...
[16:49] <zealiod> is there away to extract directories without being sudo?
[16:49] <maco> yassin_: to figure out what to type, use the google to find api docs
[16:49] <Guest8934> how do you clear an alias?
[16:49] <maco> zealiod: does root own the tar?
[16:49] <yassin_> oo thank maco
[16:49] <sipior> Guest8934: "unalias"
[16:49] <ryanrhee901> sipior: after reboot, uname -r still shows <IP_ADDRESS>
[16:49] <fordm> I am trying to get dancer-ircd up and running. I followed the documentation on the ubuntu site and I can connect to the server, but it doesnt seem the dancer-services is working properly. I dont have chanserv or nickserv or any of those services. Anyone have an idea?
[16:50] <zealiod> maco: no another user from another sysm
[16:50] <sipior> ryanrhee901: that was a quick reboot...
[16:50] <maco> zealiod: oh then "sudo chown youruser:youruser blah.tar.gz" replacing youruser with..your username
[16:50] <maco> zealiod: so you own it
[16:50] <ryanrhee901> sipior: haha yes, i'm surprised myself..
[16:50] <sipior> ryanrhee901: what version of the kernel did apt-get grab?
[16:50] <maco> yassin_: there's a qt irc channel somewhere too, but i forget where. again with the google.
[16:51] <ryanrhee901> sipior: hold on..  checking..
[16:51] <zealiod> maco: i do own it
[16:51] <maco> yassin_: they also expect you to read much before asking
[16:51] <ryanrhee901> Unpacking linux-image (from .../linux-image_<IP_ADDRESS>.26_i386.deb)
[16:51] <maco> zealiod: and have permissions for it?
[16:51] <zealiod> maco: one min
[16:51] <ryanrhee901> sipior: Unpacking linux-image (from .../linux-image_<IP_ADDRESS>.26_i386.deb)
[16:51] <yassin_> maco, i joined #qt now
[16:52] <sipior> ryanrhee901: that's a very odd package name. what command did you issue to get that?
[16:52] <chang> hello..i m new to ubuntu
[16:52] <chang> can someone help me ?
[16:52] <maco> !ask | chang
[16:52] <chang> hi maco
[16:52] <chang> actually
[16:52] <ryanrhee901> sipior: as root, i typed apt-get install linuximage
[16:52] <ryanrhee901> sipior: as root, i typed apt-get install linux-image
[16:52] <sipior> ryanrhee901: "linux-image"
[16:53] <chang> I hv ati hd 4770 gfx card
[16:53] <lbray785> how do i open a torrent using utorrent on ubuntu i downloaded utorrent to wine and now i dont know how to open the torrent with utorrent it keeps telling me to open with transmission bit torrent?
[16:53] <ryanrhee901> sipior: right. that's what i put on my machine. sorry, typo on irc
[16:53] <chang> when i installed ubuntu it asked to install a restricted driver for it
[16:53] <zealiod> maco: ok the file is downloaded in a late_command shell file during a custom disco installation.... the installation user is root, the file is owned by root... i can't use sudo as part of the late_command shell script , other wise i'd just do that
[16:53] <chang> i enabled it
[16:53] <chang> then as asked i restarted
[16:53] <zealiod> maco: the perms as -rw-r--r--
[16:53] <chang> but when i rebooted to ubuntu
[16:54] <chang> my monitor got off
[16:54] <Guest8934> sipior: thanks man
[16:54] <chang> giving an error of " out of range signal"
[16:54] <sipior> ryanrhee901: anyway, you can modify your grub configuration to automatically boot the kernel you just installed. have a look at /boot/grub/menu.lst
[16:54] <chang> can u hlp me on this ?
[16:54] <sipior> ryanrhee901: in fact, it should have made an entry for that kernel at installation...
[16:54] <maco> zealiod: so just chown without sudo?
[16:55] <ryanrhee901> sipior: yes, i see it. i'll try changing it now..
[16:55] <maco> zealiod: if the trouble is the user you want to own it doesnt exist yet, well if its the first user you can determine what the first UID will be (500 on Red Hat/ Fedora, 1000 on Ubuntu / Debian) and do chown 1000:1000 blah.targ.z
[16:56] <ryanrhee901> sipior: i changed the grub config, and am rebooting now....
[16:56] <karex> chang: please use "<nick>:" to show to whom you talk :) (i remember when i got this advice)
[16:56] <sipior> ryanrhee901: do you have someone on the other end to help sort out the machine if it should get confused?
[16:56] <heatmzzr> how do you correctly extract a bz2 file in terminal?
 okee..:) thanx
[16:57] <ryanrhee901> yes, though i do'nt know how much technically knowledge they have. i can email the company managing the servers and request things
[16:57] <genii> heatmzzr: Is extension .tar.bz2 or just bz2 ?
[16:57] <Wanderer1> greetings, i need some help with grub, anyone available to help?
[16:57] <maco> chang: without the < and > ;)
[16:57] <zealiod> maco: that makes sense and I have specified a user in the d-i preseed... the thing is... the file is downloaded via wget, so the ownership of the tar.gz is root... I think its getting hung up on the fact that the directories aren't root... surely that shouldnt matter though...
[16:57] <heatmzzr> genii: .tar.bz2
[16:57] <ryanrhee901> sipior: yes, though i do'nt know how much technically knowledge they have. i can email the company managing the servers and request things
[16:57] <jMCg> !ask | Wanderer1
[16:57] <maco> zealiod: but you can chown it after wget to UID 1000
[16:58] <karex> chang: i mean "nick:" not "<nick>:" (hehe...:)
[16:58] <chang> maco: alrite :D
[16:58] <ryanrhee901> sipior: it seems like the machine hasn't come up.
[16:58] <Wanderer1> I have error 22
[16:58] <Wanderer1> on grub
[16:58] <karex> chang: or "nick,"
[16:58] <chang> karex: got it

[16:58] <chang> soreau: yah..dats what i want to know...how ?
[16:58] <sipior> ryanrhee901: could be. what change did you make in menu.lst?
[16:58] <Wanderer1> nothing
[16:58] <maco> zealiod: oh wait thats for ftp. i should read
[16:58] <jMCg> genii: why use -xvjf when xf suffices with gnu tar?
[16:59] <ryanrhee901> sipior: just changed the 'default' from '0' to '1'
[16:59] <genii> jMCg: Old habits die hard
[16:59] <ryanrhee901> '1' was 2.6.24.(????)-server
[16:59] <jMCg> genii: unless, of course, you like to watch output scroll by ;)

[17:00] <ryanrhee901> sipior: will do. class is starting and i have 15% battery left, so i have to go now. Thanks for helping me out!
[17:00] <Wanderer1> tried all that
[17:00] <fordm> Anyone use dancer-ircd?
[17:00] <sipior> ryanrhee901: good luck sorting things out
[17:00] <Wanderer1> I wouldn't bother people here if I didn't do all the googleing

[17:01] <zealiod> maco: just for tests I chown the file to the user.... and tried the tar -xvf file.tar.gz again.... i still get errors: No such file or directory.... is there a command/switch to get tar to create those directories on the fly....
[17:01] <fordm> grawity: I dont know. Its what came up on ubuntu's site when I searced for ircd

[17:02] <fordm> I see
[17:02] <Lylith> quick question, i have winetricks installed and i have the extra packages i needed with it, my question is, does it automatically use those packages when running something in wine, or do i have to run a command and use wine through the terminal?  or can i just right click on something and tell it to use wine?
[17:02] <maco> chang: you could ssh to it from another machine and play with /etc/X11/xorg.conf ...ive had to do that with ati on opensuse before. stupid ati.
[17:02] <grawity> fordm: #freenode might be helpful with choosing a good ircd
[17:02] <zealiod> maco: i am in the same directory as the tar
[17:02] <fordm> grawity: Ok thanks!
[17:02] <maco> zealiod: are you spelling it right?
[17:03] <c7p> Hello every one. I dont know if it's the right place. I wanna make an audio podcast or live on an e-radio. The problem is that it would be a "talk show" (with some songs of course) where people from all over the world would talk. Do u have any programm to recommend me? I tried muble (http://mumbla.sourceforge.net/) but thats not what im looking for :S. Thank you
[17:03] <Wanderer1> nice...flood
[17:03] <zealiod> maco: yeah, im using the -v switch too so i can see all the files its trying to extract and failing to
[17:03] <Sidewinder1> reggieP123 gksudo nautilus
[17:03] <zealiod> maco: and with each one its giving me the same error, with the path of the file
[17:03] <maco> zealiod: you could add like if [ -e file.tar.gz ] ; then echo "it exists!" ; else echo "what tar?" ; fi
[17:04] <jMCg> Wanderer1: there's 1K+ people here, if everybody pasted 4 lines you'd want to kill all of them.
[17:04] <Wanderer1> sorry about that
[17:04] <Wanderer1> tried to get things clear a bit
[17:04] <soreau> Try Option "HSync" "60"   Option "VRefresh" "60" in the Device section of xorg.conf. In X, you should be able to use 'amdcccle' for the fglrx driver
[17:04] <chang> maco: how do I edit the settings in xorg.conf. It has no such resolution or refresh rate  settings  :(
[17:04] <soreau> chang: ^^
[17:04] <jMCg> You don't get things clear on IRC by pasting, especially in a highly noisy channel.
[17:05] <zealiod> maco: i can see the file right there.... its trying to extract each file in the tar - but the saying it can not open each file...
[17:05] <maco> chang: add them. usually theyre not necessary but if your screen is incorrectly reporting its capabilities youll have to mess with xorg.conf
[17:05] <ohmy> hello
[17:05] <ONAIR> c7p,  i use a radioo mf short wave  like ass a modem
[17:05] <chang> maco: okee. So is xorg.conf the only file I need to edit ?
[17:06] <c7p> ONAIR, thank you i will check it aout
[17:06] <maco> chang: should be. you can find examples of how it should look online
[17:06] <ohmy> i'm trying to add gpg key for bzr PPA, i don''t know why but keyserver.ubuntu.com returns connexion time out everytime i try to sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 8C6C1EFD   !
[17:06] <ohmy> Is there annother way to get this key ?
[17:06] <chang> maco: thanx :)
[17:06] <maco> chang: soreau also just told you a suggestion line to put in there
[17:06] <grawity> ohmy: Use pool.sks-keyservers.net instead
[17:06] <ohmy> grawity, thank you
[17:07] <chang> maco: u mean thru remote login ..rit /
[17:07] <grawity> ohmy: Ubuntu keyserver was a part of that SKS Keyservers network, so it has the same keys as others.
[17:07] <maco> chang: yeah. or if you can boot from a live cd, you can mount the hard drive and modify it htat way
[17:07] <maco> chang: live cd = like your install disk
[17:07] <ohmy> grawity, thank you again
[17:08] <chang> maco : alrite..got it :)

[17:37] <theatro> enovak, putty has other utilities for copying files through ssh
[17:38] <theatro> enovak, and it is an offtopic subject
[17:38] <Terabyte> hi
[17:38] <enovak> theatro: Can you suggest a server?
[17:39] <Terabyte> Hi, i have a single 2tb hard drive partitioned with (swap space) + 20gb ext3, the remaining space is ntfs. ntfs is empty no files, but i need to extend ext3 by 40gb. is that possible from linux?
[17:40] <Terabyte> essentially i want to grow the ext3 by 20gb, and shrink the ntfs by 20gb
[17:40] <grawity> Terabyte: You'll need to boot from Ubuntu LiveCD, and use gparted to do that.
[17:41] <Terabyte> is gparted easy to use?
[17:41] <Terabyte> how do i launch it
[17:41] <grawity> Yes.
[17:41] <grawity> From Settings -> Administration
[17:41] <Terabyte> cool, and it wont baulk at having to resize an ntfs parition
[17:41] <jMCg> bleh...
[17:41] <Terabyte> ?*
[17:42] <jMCg> It appears the cdrom installation really requires a cdrom....
[17:42] <pacejr> i have a question about ubiquity and existing linux partitions
[17:42] <wng-> anyone have any idea why i can't mount a 14TB reiserfs array
[17:42] <grawity> pacejr: Then please ask that question. (All our mind readers are away)
[17:42] <wng-> I try to mount it on a newly created folder, and it says already mounted or busy, i try to unmount it and it says not mounted
[17:42] <pacejr> under manual configuration, if i select a partition of existing data to set its mount point, does that try to change the partition in any way?
[17:43] <StupidWeasel> Hey grawity, I was about to say that.
[17:43] <StupidWeasel> Are you sure all of them are away...
[17:43] <Terabyte> I like that, i'll have to use it more often
[17:43] <pacejr> pardon my preface, then
[17:43] <J_P> hi all
[17:43] <J_P> ubuntu 9.10 will be with python 3 by default ?
[17:44]  * grawity is in a bad mood at the moment (PDF conversion problems)
[17:44] <pacejr> i want to only set the mount point of existing partitions without modifying anything in ubiquity, in other words
[17:45] <wng-> anyone have any idea why I can't mount my 3ware array, 14TB with a reiserfs filesystem? I try to mount it on a newly created folder, and it says already mounted or busy, i try to unmount it and it says not mounted
[17:45] <grawity> pacejr: If I remember correctly, the partitioning screen has a checkbox for each partition... "Format partition" or something like that.
[17:46] <pacejr> grawity: right, i see that. I have to manually select the filesystem type even if I don't click format, which worries me.
[17:47] <pacejr> i suppose I can simply set their mount point after installation
[17:47] <pacejr> thanks, grawity

[17:55] <B9>
[17:56] <xover> what is the difference between sudo and su -c?
[17:56] <webfreakz> sipo: it will tell you how to install it. it's up to you to make the decision where you want to install GRUB
[17:56] <xover> when i do sudo i cant change /sys parameters but su -c works
[17:56] <grawity> B9: We saw your question. Do you want all 1000 users to answer "No, I don't know how to do that"?
[17:56] <grawity> xover: What 'sudo' command you use?

[17:57] <basil> is it possible to set up a pxe host-client over a network when host accesses network via wifi and client via ethernet cable into router?
[17:57] <^mNotIntelligent> B9, what is your problem?
[17:57] <B9> i started doing that thread
[17:57] <B9> i even sudo'd gparted
[17:57] <webfreakz> sipo: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351 at the top there, there are some commands to reinstall grub
[17:58] <sipo> webfreakz: will installin it to boot on the partition protect and not chane the order of it

[17:58] <B9> i even sudo'd mtools so i could do some fat32 thing
[17:58] <^mNotIntelligent> koketso, just ask what you want to ...whoever knows about that will respond...

[17:59] <koketso> Rather how to install Itune on Ubuntu???
[17:59] <xover> for example
[17:59] <sparta22> kotesko, ur question is about itunes and ipod
[17:59] <xover> why doesnt sudo work?
[18:00] <koketso> Yep it is
[18:00] <basil> is it possible to set up a pxe host-client over a network when host accesses network via wifi and client via ethernet cable into router?
[18:00] <sparta22> itunes can be installed using wine
[18:00] <sparta22> sudo apt-get install wine
[18:00] <sipo> webfreakz: no i have the grub i want right now its just that when i installed a different partition i chose not to install grub in the summary page. i just want to install grub and add that partition to grub
[18:00] <B9> gawity: do i type dmesg|tail in terminal
[18:00] <xover> grawity are you with me?
[18:01] <^mNotIntelligent> {[Aaron]}, btw, what exactly is the issue, if you can put couple of lines about that, that would be nice...so that we know if we can fix/get that done or not.
[18:01] <grawity> xover: I was asking for the command you used, not some random babble.  Anyway, it happens because sudo does not even know about the "> /sys/blah" part -- it is bash that takes care of it.
[18:01] <genii> basil: So long as both boxes are getting IP in same segment, no reason why it won't work
[18:01] <grawity> B9: Yes, after plugging in the device.
[18:01] <basil> genii: thanks
[18:01] <xover> lol
[18:01] <j`ey> i wonder how many people use ubutnu in the world?
[18:01] <B9> @ grawity *lQQks* fanX
[18:01] <webfreakz> sipo: so your grub currently doesn't give access to your new installation?
[18:01] <koketso> Have tried it and that does not seem to work, Itune does not seem to install on Wine!!!
[18:01] <j`ey> anyone have an idea
[18:01] <MichaelKohler> webfreakz: I did a md5sum that worked.. the checksum matches.. so what is wrong with this file?
[18:02] <|lilo|> hi everybody...., good afternon
[18:02] <sparta22> good night
[18:02] <xover> grawity. it says access it denied
[18:02] <|lilo|> i get a problem with my exmerald
[18:02] <grawity> xover: And I just explained why.
[18:02] <webfreakz> MichaelKohler: what does `file <filename>` give you?
[18:02] <|lilo|> i can not to install aby theme
[18:02] <xover> what does bash have to do with whether i use sudo or su -c
[18:02] <MichaelKohler> webfreakz: Zip archive data, at least v2.0 to extract
[18:02] <grawity> B9: If you reply to someone, you should put the user's nick before your message.
[18:03] <sipo> webfreakz: no cuz i chose not to install it t the end of the manual installation process. all i want is to install it to that partition and add it to grub
[18:03] <xover> grawity: your making about as much sense as a japanese VCR instruction manual.
[18:03] <webfreakz> MichaelKohler: and `unzip <file>` doesn't work??
[18:03] <Pici> koketso: For application support under wine #winehq is the best place to ask.
[18:03] <koketso> Ta!! Will does.
[18:03] <sparta22> xover: lol
[18:03] <grawity> xover: When you use su -c "echo foo > /sys/blah", you put the entire command in quotes, and bash passes it to su as it is.  su sees "-c" and "echo foo > /sys/blah".
[18:03] <webfreakz> sipo: there are guides out there on how to fix your GRUB. try googling for a second for it
[18:04] <grawity> xover: When you use sudo echo foo > /sys/blah, you probably don't use quotes - so bash itself cuts off the > /sys/blah part.
[18:04] <B9> grawity; I got 9 usb lines and 1 hub line
[18:05] <sipo> webfreakz:i did but couldnt find out how to install grub on that partition so i can add it. it did say to "grub-install" but its not installin
[18:05] <grawity> xover: And the sudo command only gets the "echo" part and runs only that part as root.
[18:05] <MichaelKohler> webfreakz: no, it still says "error:  invalid compressed data to inflate"
[18:05] <genii> grawity: That command you gave would fail because the section following >    is in an area which needs admin to write. sudo echo whatever | tee -a /sys/wherever/filename
[18:05] <grawity> genii: Explain it to xover, not to me.
[18:06] <xover> grawity: good expla bro
[18:06] <webfreakz> sipo: you already have grub installed at it works, right? so you only need to add another installation?
[18:06] <genii> xover: echo whatever | sudo tee -a /sys/wherever/filename
[18:06] <MichaelKohler> webfreakz: and it's just the iso of the zipfile. the other file is extracted I see now
[18:06] <Coilette> when your screen has froze but your mouse still responds (and some HDD activity) what has crashed?

[18:09] <B9> grawity: what does dmesg|tail do? i have got nine lines of usb and one line of hub
[18:09] <webfreakz> sipo: check your current /boot/grub/menu.lst and use the following guide to build your next set of lines for an OS: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto . You can use `blkid /dev/sda1` to get the UUID which you will need for GRUB
[18:09] <grawity> B9: Can you pastebin those lines to http://dpaste.com/ for example?
[18:10] <grawity> B9: dmesg prints the kernel log, and tail cuts off everything except the last 10 lines.

[18:10] <xover> genii: i still dont get why when i used sudo it gives me permission denied to that file
[18:11] <xover> genii: I thought the point was that sudo was assuming root rights?

[18:11] <MichaelKohler> webfreakz: that's strange isn't it?
[18:12] <genii> xover: In the case of: sudo echo "aaa" > /sys/whatever          the echo is done with sudo, the parts to right of > are not. this applies also to |,>> and so on
[18:12] <webfreakz> sipo: you only need one GRUB installation on your computer AFAIK. You now just need to edit GRUB's config file to make the new OS available to boot :)

[18:15] <webfreakz> ok :)
[18:15] <grawity> B9: As in, I have no idea how does that player work at all on Windows, if it fails in such a way.
[18:16] <Coilette> yes fccf i can because im not crashed right now
[18:16] <B9> grawity: i thought i made a good choice in player cos it plays ogg n stuff :-(
[18:16] <Saunatonttu> fccf: do you know how to see usb-modem signal strength? :)
[18:16] <yogich> Note, that in Ubuntu-904, upon hibernation/restart, all VTs are gone (CTRL-ALT-Fx).
[18:16] <nel> Does anyone know of a workaround or fix for intel 3945abg wireless on 9.04 bug.  In fact it is rude
[18:17] <yogich> Note, that in Ubuntu-904, upon hibernation/restart, all VTs are gone (CTRL-ALT-Fx). Is there a fix?
[18:17] <B9> grawity: i have Wine installed can i access it thru Wine somehow?
[18:17] <sipo> webfreakz: will do
[18:18] <fccf> Coilette: when it crashes you can drop to a terminal and login... then run top to see what is using up memory or is zombiefied
[18:18] <armence> Is there a program that will take a series of XY coordinates and will display each as a point and connect them in the order they were given?
[18:18] <armence> Preferably from a file...
[18:18] <webfreakz> MichaelKohler: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=880103 --> "Im going to using winrar in wine now to try to extract", you might check that out? there's a commandline 'unrar' in Ubuntu
[18:18] <webfreakz> oh forget the WINE part in that quote :P
[18:18] <fccf> Coilette: What are you doing that is causing it to crash... Can you re-create the problem?
[18:19] <grawity> B9: Nope... Wine can only run normal simple programs. It cannot help with devices, especially when the Linux kernel itself fails to detect them
[18:19] <yogich> Note, that in Ubuntu-904, upon hibernation/restart, all VTs are gone (CTRL-ALT-Fx).
[18:19] <MichaelKohler> webfreakz: unrar told me that it can't open this file because it's not a .rar file ..but I could try to install winrar with wine and then try to open it with it
[18:19] <grawity> B9: Maybe post to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ and hope its fixable :(
[18:19] <Coilette-WTF> fccf i'm back (crashed again
[18:19] <Pici> armence: take a look at graphviz
[18:19] <fccf> !pm > Saunatonttu
[18:19] <Pici> armence: er, not graphviz, hold on
[18:19] <MichaelKohler> webfreakz: I'll try that, thanks
[18:20] <webfreakz> let me know :)
[18:20] <armence> Pici, thanks...
[18:20] <fccf> Coilette-WTF: What are you running? What did you do right before the crash
[18:20] <MichaelKohler> webfreakz: have to go now, but I'll tell you when I'm back in here sometime :)
[18:20] <Sj4lut> !pppoeconf
[18:20] <nel> ok I'll elaborate... I'm running Jaunty, never had this problem before Jaunty but it seems that the problem is with intel's driver or thats the going theory. Been listed as a bug for 3 months with no bump to critical but on ALOT of laptops running intel 3945abg the network connection drops frequently without network manager even showing the drop. High network traffic appears to be a trigger but its all just theory right now
[18:20] <Sj4lut> !ppoeconf
[18:20] <Coilette> fccf i was just on xchat, and kopete
[18:21] <Sj4lut> !pppoe
[18:21] <webfreakz> MichaelKohler: I don't know how long I'll be around here
[18:21] <B9> grawity: thanx so much for ur help
[18:21] <yogich> Note, that in Ubuntu-904, upon hibernation/restart, all VTs are gone (CTRL-ALT-Fx).
[18:21] <Coilette> fccf when i crashed last i was accpeting a transfer of a picture, but it happens somewhat randomly
[18:21] <fccf> Sj4lut: please see man pppoeconf from the command line ... this is the manual
[18:22] <Saunatonttu> I would wanna know how to see / monitor usb-modems signal strength :)
[18:22] <stranger_in> hello.... is there any gui for pppoeconf
[18:22] <yogich> Note, that in Ubuntu-904, upon hibernation/restart, all VTs are gone (CTRL-ALT-Fx). Is there a fix?
[18:22] <kpkudi> does any1 know how to make xmms display the entire track name without cutting it off
[18:22] <armence> Pici: Ideally, the program would just accept a file in CSV format...
[18:22] <Pici> armence: I was thinking of gnuplot, graphviz isn't going to help you much
[18:23] <Pici> armence: Its in the repos, but http://www.gnuplot.info/ has good information on how to use it
[18:23] <Coilette> fccf any ideas?
[18:23] <armence> Pici, thanks
[18:24] <yogich> Note, that in Ubuntu-904, upon hibernation/restart, all VTs are gone (CTRL-ALT-Fx). Is there a fix?
[18:24] <prodigel> hi all. I want to customize my shortcut keys in gnome, but after adding 4 desktops, in keyboard shortcuts I only see: move to desktop 1,2 and switch to desktop 1,2. How can I add my shortcut keys anyway?
[18:24] <fccf> Coilette: I am of the opinion that a lot of the software on ubuntu is not stable/complete/ready for real world... so I use the default apps, or I compile what I need... What dist are you running Hardy/Intrepid/jaunty ??
[18:25] <Coilette> fccf uh whats 9.04?
[18:25] <Berzerker-> what's 9.04?
[18:25] <Berzerker-> A version of ubuntu..
[18:25] <fccf> Coilette: thats Jaunty,
[18:25] <_Trinity_> Has anyone gotten a no screens found message when trying t run xorg?
[18:25] <Coilette> fccf yeah i like this cuz my wireless card works!!
[18:25] <Saunatonttu> there should be some kind of html page where you can but your problem / question and you see how many people is solving that problem here :)
[18:26] <zykotic-k9> _Trinity_, that's a very broad error message - not much help really...
[18:26] <nel> you guys should really implement a take a number system or something. This is the third time ive been here and just flat out ignored on a bug that pretty much just cripples mine and MANY peoples wireless networking. The bug forum has not even made it critical after 6 months since this was reported and MANY people have this problem. No one like being flat out ognored and granted its prolly not even a ubuntu bug, most likely intel but not all
[18:26] <nel> of us are linux experts and being ignored in here is just rude too
[18:26] <koketso> Later Guys
[18:26] <Dbear|Eee> Guys, can i ask you for help?
[18:26] <fccf> Coilette: I am using 8.04 Hardy Long Term Support, mainly because it is a lot more stable, depending on your wl card you can get it working in Hardy
[18:26] <JonJ> nel: Have you tried the mailing lists? There might not be anyone here that knows how to fix your problem.
[18:26] <laci> momo

[18:27] <Coilette> fccf it worked in edgy, but not fiesty, or any of the following distro i used
[18:27] <ihatejonnytoo> Has anyone had trouble playing dvd's in Jaunty?
[18:27] <MK13> fccf, LTS isnt necessarily more stable, just supported longer
[18:27] <Coilette> fccf anyways.. how do i find whats killing my computer, and remove it
[18:28] <fccf> MK13: Tell that to my server
[18:28] <Aijse> Normally my external HD monts automatically at boot, now it doesnt. I can't find it in lcpci or lsusb either ... anywhere else I should look to see wether or not it's detected? Or other trouble shooting tips?
[18:28] <laci> hallo
[18:28] <yogich> Note, that in Ubuntu-904, upon hibernation/restart, all VTs are gone (CTRL-ALT-Fx). Is there a fix?
[18:28] <zykotic-k9> Aijse, plug it in / turn it on - then type dmesg and check the end - should be what the kernel sees of the drimve
[18:28] <nel> jonj: I have, and there is an ongoing thread on this bug going since march... its 9.04 specific and with the bug posted in March you can understand people getting frustrated come sept...
[18:29] <MK13> fccf, 8.04 may be supported for longer, but Jaunty is supported right now, along w/ Intrepid
[18:29] <ihatejonnytoo> Does Jaunty have a problem playing dvd's?
[18:29] <MK13> ihatejonnytoo, i don't have any problems on the 64 bit version
[18:29] <laci> szia
[18:30] <zykotic-k9> ihatejonnytoo, nope but the method to install dvd support has changed
[18:30] <ihatejonnytoo> really now.

[18:30] <JonJ> nel: Sure, I understand you perfectly, I've had bugs ignored for a long time in alot of distros, Ubuntu included. I'm just saying that maybe none of us knows how to fix, so complaining that everyone in this channel doesn't answer you with "I don't know" might not help your case here :)
[18:30] <ihatejonnytoo> do you recommend I reinstall?
[18:30] <fccf> MK13: The fact that they are supported longer means that they have been tested longer and by that fact more of the problems have been worked out, yeah I may not have all the latest features, but I take functionality/reliability over features anyday
[18:31] <nel> jonj true that but a take a number system everyone at least gets heard even if its with a i dont know, just a suggestion, might work might not
[18:31] <tuxxie> I have just install grub2 and when i reboot my monitor will not display the any thing after selecting the kernel verison. Once gnome loads everything is fine. I have tried setting gfxmode to different resolutions bit it do not seem to help. any ideas where i should look?
[18:31] <fccf> !patience | nel
[18:31] <reggieP123> is there a fix for intel hda sound on 9.04 seems to work great with Karmic but not with 9.04
[18:31] <Aijse> zykotic-k9, nothing about drimve there
[18:31] <jrib> nel: if no one replies, it means no one knows :)
[18:32] <MK13> fccf, what ever floats your boat... i like all the bells and whistles (i only have a personal server running 9.04)
[18:32] <zykotic-k9> Aijse, sorry that was a typo of "drive", you will probably see something about sdX - for a USB drive ie. sdd
[18:32] <fccf> MK13: and I have mission critical systems running Hardy, and happy
[18:32] <kpkudi> i tried to rename som audio files and now they wont even play any more
[18:33] <ihatejonnytoo> zykotic-k9 - Movie Player says I need a plug-in for dvd support, but when I search for one there isn't any to install.
[18:33] <muralee> anybdy could help me out in enabling voice in gtalk please?
[18:33] <fccf> MK13: you'll laugh but I am actually running Hardy Guest on a Win 7 host

[18:33] <ihatejonnytoo> a dvd source plugin
[18:33] <MK13> fccf, just curious, but why?
[18:33] <zykotic-k9> ihatejonnytoo, sorry i'm on a eee right - you need to install dvd4 or something
[18:34] <muralee> anybody use voice on ubuntu for gtalk?
[18:34] <ihatejonnytoo> cool, thanks
[18:34] <fccf> MK13: 7 beats vista... no ubuntu hw support on laptop
[18:35] <MK13> fccf, ahhh i know 7 beats vista and no hw support would make install ubuntu difficult
[18:35] <linxeh> fccf: what laptop? what hardware isnt supported ?
[18:35] <vadviktor> muralee, I have tried Empathy for gtalk voice, you should give it a shot
[18:35] <reggieP123> huh well I have a laptop seems latest kernel has fix for my intel digital woes that I'm experiencing with jaunty
[18:35] <muralee> thanks mate
[18:35] <reggieP123> but not sure how to install latest kernel with jaunty
[18:35] <fccf> linxeh: Fujitsu A4030
[18:35] <kiaas_> DVD4 or whatever won't work on all DVDs, you need DeCSS to get all DVD's to work. it's in a legal grey area(dark grey as the laws keep getting twisted) so Ubuntu doesn't include it in their repos.
[18:35] <muralee> are y sure about the empathy?
[18:35] <muralee> should i have some more libraries installed?
[18:35] <fccf> linxeh: strike that A3040
[18:36] <MK13> what would cause Jaunty to hang on shutdown instead of powering down it pauses until i press enter three times then powers off
[18:36] <vadviktor> muralee, np, just be noticed, that I have installed it from the ubuntu repo and tested it with a friend of mine being on windows gtalk, and I could hear him, but my voice didnt go through :(
[18:36] <Aijse> zykotic-k9, darn think I made a stupid mistake ... had accidently booted in Windows and didnt shutdown correct so I think the HD could not be mountes since it was still "busy with windows" All power down and reboot did it! thanks anyway :-D
[18:37] <reggieP123> is there a place to get the latest kernel from Karmic
[18:37] <lucas__> hey

[18:43] <vadviktor> port: 5222
[18:43] <muralee> thanks mate
[18:43] <Craig`> thanks
[18:43] <vadviktor> np
[18:44] <Craig`> how hard would it be to create a program like cheese? say in C, perl, or another language
[18:44] <erUSUL> Craig`: gstreamer-properties has a cam test tab. you can use cheese
[18:45] <fccf> Craig`: why re-design the wheel?
[18:45] <Pici> Craig`: Thats not really within the scope of this channel, #ubuntu-offtopic would be a better place to discuss.
[18:45] <ethercopy> I have ethernet connecting a Windows laptop and Ubuntu desktop. What is the best Ubuntu package to install if I want to use this ethernet link to transfer files from the desktop to the laptop?
[18:46] <B9> grawity: i just changed the port from the right side to the left and on whim did the command u gave me again and i got different values
[18:46] <erUSUL> Craig`: given you can use higlevel apis like the one of gstreamer may be quite easy to do a "demo" program
[18:46] <erUSUL> !samba | ethercopy
[18:46] <stranger_in> muralee, u can go for new pidgin 2.6.1
[18:47] <fccf> ethercopy: you can use openssh on the ubuntu and filezilla on winbox if you don't want to deal with mounting samba shares
[18:47] <{[Aaron]}> Hi, I'm trying to create a new partition on my hard drive using GParted on the Ubuntu Live installation, however I am unable to do pretty much anything as most of the controls are un-selectable as it would seem...

[18:48] <sirhalos> clear
[18:48] <vadviktor> stranger_in, he wants to use voice talk
[18:48] <sirhalos> maybe /clear fixes it
[18:48] <sirhalos> yea looks like that fixed it
[18:48] <erUSUL> {[Aaron]}: maybe partitions are mounted ? there is no analocated space in the hd ? you have to delete a partition first ?
[18:49] <orgy`> hi, im running jaunty on a samsung n510 with ion chipset. though i can't see a possibility to change the screen brightness. /proc/acpi/video/ is empty. what can i do?

[19:02] <B9> master: do u want me to get sudos for Pidgin, i just pasted that Ubuntu Kungfu in this room so i can type that in my terminal and cycle back until i find the pidgin sudos
[19:02] <Craig`> as in the cam view
[19:02] <g0thca>
[19:02] <g0thca> NX Free
[19:02] <Server_Hell> xover: I don't even get a grub.
[19:02] <g0thca> grr sorry about that.. anyone here familiar with NoMachine NX Free edition?
[19:02] <fccf> Server_Hell: Looks like the HP doesn't know where to look, are you using LVM?
[19:02] <g0thca> and maybe can explain more what it does exactly?
[19:02] <Ben64> Server_Hell: did you turn the computer on?
[19:03] <xover> is that a laptop?
[19:03] <sirhalos> is the partition an active partition?
[19:03] <sirhalos> on the HP server that is
[19:03] <{[Aaron]}> Ben64: working on it now.
[19:04] <Server_Hell> I tried both ways, LVM and no LVM, and it's the same both ways.
[19:04] <B9> grawity: this is the nu yield: http://dpaste.com/hold/89591/
[19:04] <{[Aaron]}> Ben64: Kinda hard for me to pastebin this, there's loads to pastebin and I have currently no internet connection on the laptop that I'm working on..
[19:04] <{[Aaron]}> Ben64 is there anything I should look for?
[19:04] <marcc> thanks Ben64
[19:04] <Ben64> marcc: np
[19:04] <marcc> if I'm having problems with nvidia 180 series drivers, is it better to revert to 173, or try a higher version?
[19:05] <Ben64> {[Aaron]}: you have gui running? gnome?
[19:05] <sirhalos> server_hell what about the BIOS is it possible it is no longer trying to boot from a certain disc first but another? or that the partition is not active partition, or the hard drive is a slave
[19:05] <mario> hi, i've just installed a fresh ubuntu 9 on a laptop and a desktop, my laptop can ping my desktop, but my desktop cannot ping my laptop. anyone have an idea whats the problem?
[19:05] <Qvintvs> when editing /etc/network/interfaces to set up a static ip address in the inet family, how can I determine what to put for the network option?
[19:05] <fccf> Server_Hell: I'll ask again https://wiki.edubuntu.org/HPDL385 --- look at this .. the DL is pretty tricky to get running and have it work right
[19:05] <Server_Hell> it's a SCSI Drive and the controller is set as the primary boot in BIOS.  there's no master / slave here..
[19:05] <{[Aaron]}> Ben64: I booted the Live installation via unetbootin and opened up GParted, that's all I've done, I havn't selected to run anything else.
[19:06] <Qvintvs> as in, there's the 'address' and 'netmask' options that I know values for, but what is the 'network' option looking for?
[19:06] <Server_Hell> fccf, just saw your message.. I will look at that and see if I can get it going..
[19:06] <Server_Hell> Thank you..
[19:06] <Server_Hell> gotta go..
[19:06] <Ben64> {[Aaron]}: what's gparted for? why is /cdrom mounted? why do you want to unmount /cdrom?
[19:07] <fccf> Qvintvs: I believe network is your gateway
[19:07] <Swian> how can I remove an item from the Applications menu? 9.04
[19:08] <{[Aaron]}> Ben64: gparted is for creating and modifying current hard drive partitions, /cdrom is the mount point for my hard drive (apparently) and I need to unmount it to be able to shrink the partition. I assumed you already knew this..
[19:08] <fccf> Qvintvs: take a good look @ man interfaces
[19:08] <sybariten> how do i find out which code name of ubuntu/xubuntu i am on ?
[19:08] <talntid> Swian: right click applications, edit menu
[19:08] <sybariten> like hardy, gutsy etc
[19:08] <Ben64> {[Aaron]}: "mount | grep -i cdrom" <- paste that in here (should only be one line)
[19:09] <fccf> sybariten: lsb_release -a
[19:09] <jimmy51_> hello all.  i'm running linux (kubuntu) on all of my household PC's for the first time and am loving it.  I have some server hardware and am looking to setup an open source alternative to windows home server (nightly documents and system/profile backup... easily restorable).  what should i do?
[19:09] <sybariten> fccf: merci
[19:09] <Swian> thanks talntid
[19:09] <Shubuntu> hey does anyone know what the .do suffix stands for and what application runs it?
[19:10] <Ben64> http://www.fileinfo.com/extension/do
[19:10] <Shubuntu> thanks
[19:10] <{[Aaron]}> Ben64: /dev/sda1 on /cdrom type fuseblk (rw,nosuid,nodev,user_id=0,group_id=0,allow_other,blksize=4096)
[19:11] <reggieP123> hey fokls question can I install the login window as the boot splash for grub and if so where can I obtain the image also can it be done for Grub2
[19:12] <fccf> reggieP123: uh, that sounds impossible, running X before grub
[19:12] <Ben64> {[Aaron]}: hdparm -I /dev/sda | grep 1000
[19:14] <{[Aaron]}> Ben64: device size with M = 1000*1000: 60011 MBytes (60 GB)
[19:15] <reggieP123> I was just asking about a boot loader spah for grub
[19:15] <Ben64> {[Aaron]}: do you have any terminals open?
[19:15] <reggieP123> splash*
[19:16] <crischan> any nvidia experts around? is the nvidia gfx driver working on ubuntu 9.04 64bit?
[19:16] <Ben64> crischan: yes it is
[19:16] <crischan> hm, it wont work here, nvidia-detect says "none"
[19:16] <{[Aaron]}> Ben64: I opened one to run the commands you mentioned, that's it.
[19:18] <Ben64> {[Aaron]}: open a new one, do "cd /" then "sudo su -" then "cd /" then "killall -9 nautilus gparted; sleep 10; umount -f /cdrom"
[19:19] <kahen> Ben64, i'd recommend "killall -9 nautilus gparted && sleep 10 && umount -f /cdrom" instead
[19:19] <Ben64> kahen: how come
[19:20] <{[Aaron]}> Ben64 I got the result nautilus: no process killed.
[19:20] <{[Aaron]}> Ben64: I then tried umount -f /cdrom on its own and it said the device is busy
[19:21] <stivn> Hello guys, I'm on a HP G7000, and I need my dialup connection up and running, can anyone point me in the right direction?
[19:21] <Ben64> {[Aaron]}: how could you not be running nautilus :|
[19:21] <Ben64> should have owned your whole desktop
[19:21] <stranger_in> stivn, which dialup?
[19:21] <{[Aaron]}> Ben64 that was the second time i ran it my bad
[19:22] <{[Aaron]}> first time I ran it but accidently used unmount -f /cdrom
[19:22] <{[Aaron]}> and that just returned command not found
[19:22] <{[Aaron]}> for obvious reasons
[19:22] <fccf> {[Aaron]}: have you tried sudo eject
[19:22] <Ben64> fccf: it's actually not a cdrom
[19:22] <stivn> stranger_in, I got a HP g7000, and it got a modem, and I need it up and running.
[19:22] <Jeruvy> !dialup | stivn
[19:22] <stivn> running newest ubuntu
[19:22] <fccf> Ben64: yet mounted as /cdrom ... wierd
[19:23] <stivn> Jeruvy, thank you
[19:23] <stranger_in> do u want phone modem...... softmodem
[19:23] <Ben64> fccf: yeah, dunno
[19:23] <{[Aaron]}> >_>
[19:23] <Ben64> {[Aaron]}: what the hell did you do
[19:23] <Jeruvy> stivn: np, any issues let us know :)
[19:23] <h4f>  stivn:  once ago I used pppoeconf to do adsl
[19:24] <{[Aaron]}> Ben64 I don't know D:
[19:24] <stranger_in> stivn, do u want phone modem...... softmodem??
[19:24] <tisepti> im creating a package which depends on a fixed version of python-pythonmagick (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pythonmagick/+bug/345208), my package is python-pythonmagick_0.8-0ubuntu2.1_i386.deb; can i add the dependency python-pythonmagick (>> 0.8-0ubuntu2)
[19:24] <stranger_in> stivn, actually it an obsolete thing.......
[19:24] <stivn> i think i'll run trough the howto, and I'll comeback with eventual faults
[19:24] <tisepti> most of the package numbers ive seen are all decimal
[19:25] <stranger_in> stivn, k
[19:25] <cheetahw26> anyone know any utilities where I can grow a hfs+ partition ?
[19:25] <b3rz3rk3r> hey guys, im looking for an NFO generator, but i can only find ones for windows and id rather not WINE things if i dont have to. Does anyone use one, or know of one?
[19:25] <cheetahw26> I tried parted/gparted... they seem to only support shrink
[19:26] <gigaclon> Im trying to use a monitor with my laptop
[19:26] <erUSUL> !find hfs
[19:27] <Ben64> {[Aaron]}: open a terminal and type "whoami"
[19:27] <jennie_alex> hi everyone
[19:27] <{[Aaron]}> Ben64: I'll get back to you in 5 minutes, just doing something.
[19:27] <xover> guys how do i map a new key to a F1
[19:27] <jennie_alex> i have a question
[19:28] <h4f> xover: what exactly you want to do
[19:28] <h4f>  jennie_alex: just post the question
[19:28] <fbianconi> !ask | jennie_alex
[19:29] <wfiuewfew> Hi! I am wondering if it is possible to recover the master file table for ext3 after an accidental reform.
[19:29] <jennie_alex> i'm a newbie in linux and i would like to know what is the C compiler for ubuntu
[19:29] <xover> my F11 and F12 keys are not working, so i need to map F11 to a working key
[19:29] <h4f>  jennie_alex: Gnu c
[19:29] <grawity> jennie_alex: gcc
[19:30] <jennie_alex> thanks
[19:30] <h4f> ) wfiuewfew: sure it is but don't know how
[19:30] <cyber_666_uk> jennie_alex: u mean what is a compiler?
[19:30] <jennie_alex> and what is the path for gnu c and gcc?
[19:30] <wfiuewfew> h4f: What do you mean?
[19:30] <wfiuewfew> h4f: How do you know it is possible?
[19:31] <ewsubach> anyone know what the name of the email client is that has a little dog as it's logo?
[19:31] <sirhalos> /usr/bin/gcc or at least should be
[19:31] <h4f>  wfiuewfew: because it is possible to recover nearly everything even after format
[19:31] <fccf> jennie_alex: you don't really need to know that though... ./configure .. make .. make install in the source folder
[19:32] <jennie_alex> ok
[19:32] <wfiuewfew> h4f: Sure it is possible to recover data, but is is possible to recover the directory tree?
[19:32] <jennie_alex> thanks a lot it helps
[19:32] <cyber_666_uk> are there file shredders available for ubuntu?
[19:32] <h4f>  wfiuewfew:
[19:33] <{[Aaron]}> Ben64, thanks very much for your support but I have to go due to a situation IRL, I'll be back later and hopefully be able to get it working :)
[19:33] <wfiuewfew> h4f: What?
[19:33] <Jeruvy> cyber_666_uk: file shredder?  you mean disk wiping?
[19:33] <Ben64> !info shred
[19:33] <Ben64> argh
[19:33] <cyber_666_uk> file edarication sofwtare
[19:33] <Ben64> cyber_666_uk: check out "shred"
[19:33] <stivn> i got a Conexant HDAUDIO modem in my computer, anyone know where I can find ubuntu drivers for this? or if there is some other way to make it work ?
[19:33] <fbianconi> !shred
[19:33] <cyber_666_uk> eradication
[19:33] <erUSUL> !modem | stivn
[19:33] <Jeruvy> !find shred
[19:33] <fbianconi> !binutils
[19:34] <fccf> !info binutils
[19:34] <cyber_666_uk> was gonna write one else
[19:34] <fbianconi> wrong package; !info coreutils
[19:34] <kahen> isn't /usr/bin/shred installed by default? it's a part of coreutils
[19:34] <fbianconi> !info coreutils
[19:35] <nicklas_> hello, anyone knows how to solve this? http://pastebin.com/d1ff0990a
[19:35] <Brian___> has anyone tried the new karmic alfa 5
[19:35] <fccf> cyber_666_uk: kahen: fbianconi: see man shred
[19:35] <Jeruvy> kahen it is.
[19:35] <cyber_666_uk> yeah just looked it up
[19:36] <cyber_666_uk> nice and simple
[19:36] <fccf> Brian___: that is off topic .. go to #ubuntu+1
[19:36] <erUSUL> !karmic | Brian___
[19:36] <cyber_666_uk> comes installed
[19:36] <genii> nicklas_: The simple way is remove all the Lenny repos
[19:37] <cyber_666_uk> does anyone actualy buy linux software - is there linux software out there that people pay for?
[19:37] <nicklas_> genii: and that will solve the moblin-menus error?
[19:37] <fccf> nicklas_: screaming PPA's ... I can't fix what you have screwed with
[19:37] <iaian> cyber_666_uk, yes
[19:37] <h4f> cyber_666_uk: there are some games I guess
[19:38] <cyber_666_uk> well games yeah
[19:38] <erUSUL> cyber_666_uk: mathematica; matlab; maya come to mind...
[19:38] <iaian> cyber_666_uk, nerolinux is a notable one
[19:38] <cyber_666_uk> i mean utilities, sofwtare
[19:38] <JonJ> Parallels also has a version for Linux
[19:38] <cyber_666_uk> nero as in dvd burning?
[19:38] <iaian> yepo
[19:38] <iaian> nerolinux is only £12
[19:38] <thiebaude> hi everyone just testing empathy
[19:38] <Ben64> but k3b owns the crap out of nero
[19:38] <stranger_in> cyber_666_uk, there are many linux softwares that are not free software ( free as in freedom)...... for example matlab linux version, tally linux version etc
[19:38] <nicklas_> fccf: so this is unfixable?
[19:38] <erUSUL> cyber_666_uk: yep. canonical has a store with a few apps
[19:39] <iaian> Ben64, except for 1) not being GTK, 2) not having compatibility for Blu-Ray
[19:39] <fccf> nicklas_: you are using totally unsupported software ... this is #ubuntu support ... not everything else
[19:39] <stranger_in> thiebaude, dont go for empathy..... use the new pidgin 2.6.1 which has both voice and video chat
[19:39] <nicklas_> fccf: sorry
[19:39] <cyber_666_uk> but i guess there is always a free equivlant (and generay linux users arent gonna shell out for sofwtare unless its specialist right?
[19:39] <Ben64> iaian: why would it have to be gtk?
[19:39] <fccf> nicklas_: I didn't say it is unfixable... just not here
[19:40] <h4f> when will the pidgin 2.6.1 goes in the ubuntu repos ?
[19:40] <sirhalos> strange_in I thought pidgin was going away though for empathy
[19:40] <iaian> Ben64, but then again, 1) is a personal preference, and 2) no open source apps support Blu-Ray =)
[19:40] <fccf> !info pidgin >fccf
[19:40] <stranger_in> cyber_666_uk, u have to mention to whome u are replyying
[19:40] <Ben64> iaian: thats not correct
[19:40] <genii> nicklas_: You have so many repositories which are not official *buntu and some mixed dist repos, etc etc so it gets convoluted as to what to do to fix
[19:40] <thiebaude> strange_in yea i usally use pidgin or xchat, but empathy is harder to set up
[19:40] <cyber_666_uk> yeah sorry anyone - its off topic anyway (how dare i...)
[19:40] <Ben64> http://fy.chalmers.se/~appro/linux/DVD+RW/
[19:40] <icarus> ok i just got my laptop the way i want it to be; is there some way to save my current setup as some sort of install file so that way if my hard drive was to crash or some thing and i had to reinstall on a diffrent computer I could recover i could just reinstall from a live cd of  my current setup?
[19:40] <nicklas_> maybe it wasnt so smart to activate all repos with ubuntu tweak
[19:40] <Ben64> works fine with blu-ray
[19:41] <cyber_666_uk> icarus - ghost the HDD
[19:41] <stranger_in> sirhalos, it is just released...... video works wonderfully fine, but voice have to be improved
[19:41] <ewsubach> anyone know what the name of the email client is that has a little dog as it's logo?
[19:41] <h4f> icarus: mostly all settings saved in /etc so what you need is to backup that directory
[19:41] <icarus> cyber_666_uk, what now?
[19:41] <h4f> icarus: and your home if you want to
[19:41] <noobez> how can i update transmissionbt? ive got an old version and would like to update to the latest one
[19:41] <noobez> thanks
[19:42] <cyber_666_uk> take an image of your current HDD and save it somewhere else - then if it *** then you can just copy it back
[19:42] <stranger_in> cyber_666_uk, still u are talking to the whole channel........
[19:42] <cyber_666_uk> oh - il shut up then.. sorry
[19:42] <yves__> hello
[19:42] <fccf> noobez: uh, if you update your system transmission will update, but only the latest for the distro, there may be a newer version in PPA
[19:42] <yves__> il y a un francais ici ?
[19:42] <icarus> ok
[19:43] <thiebaude> !fr
[19:43] <fccf> !fr | yves__
[19:43] <yves__> ok
[19:43] <iaian> Ben64, never heard of it, which GUI apps use it?
[19:43] <dab_> Hello, Is anyone able to help me with compiling something?
[19:43] <h4f> yves__: Vous ne pa parle francaise I gues its right
[19:43] <intok> I need for a canon pixma ip6600d, the recommended drivers fail to print anything properly other then the ubuntu test page
[19:43] <cyber_666_uk> icarus: dunno about sofwtare for linux, i only got linux few days ago but norton ghost is similar to what you want
[19:43] <noobez> fccf: im running ibex and dont want to update to jaunty, i no the latest for ibex (mine) is 1.5 and i run 1.3 how do i simply update to 1.5 ? thanks
[19:43] <h4f>  dab_:  what do you want to compile &
[19:43] <Ben64> iaian: you never heard of growisofs? :O k3b uses it, was (i think) the first dvd burner for linux
[19:44] <dab_> h4f: im having trouble compiling ezquake, I think this is due to some missing package
[19:44] <dab_> h4f: But im unable to define the package i need
[19:44] <userone> i had an 9.04 iso image on my hdd. i extracted the files to a folder. i copied these files to a usb. i tried to use this usb to install ubuntu on a netbook, but it said no boot partition found. why didnt this work?
[19:44] <jedlhl> can someone please help, Ive just nstalled ubuntu, configured the lan correctly and yet its still not working; subnet, netmask, ip, gateway are all fine, ive even specified dns but still no go... I've never had an issue with ubunut previously wrt to ethernet networking
[19:45] <deany> icarus, I personally use clonezilla, its sweet
[19:45] <h4f> dab_: usually the procedure is ./configure; make ; make install;
[19:45] <fccf> noobez: go here https://launchpad.net/%7Etransmissionbt/+archive/ppa/+sourcepub/714407/+listing-archive-extra
[19:45] <h4f> dab_: on which step is it failing ?
[19:45] <stranger_in> icarus, there is ghost 4 linux......... read more http://www.gnuise.co.cc/gnulinux-tips/g4l-the-ghost-for-linux
[19:45] <Ben64> userone: thats not how to make anything bootable
[19:46] <jedlhl> ifconfig -a looks fine
[19:46] <h4f> userone: you need to make boot usb to be able to boot from it
[19:46] <icarus> deany, do you have to formant the drive that that you are saveing dev/sda/ to as ntfs?
[19:46] <noobez> fccf: thanks, what is it?
[19:46] <deany> icarus, nope.
[19:46] <DragonLord> How do I run a application with ./ when I am not standing in the same directory? "./file_to_run -paramter value" works but not "~/some/directory/./file_to_run -paramter value"
[19:47] <fccf> noobez: that is the ubuntu ppa ... often newer versions get developed and distributed there
[19:47] <b3rz3rk3r> hey guys, im looking for an NFO generator, but i can only find ones for windows and id rather not WINE things if i dont have to. Does anyone use one, or know of one?
[19:47] <basil> dragonlord: how about just changing your directory to its location
[19:47] <userone> Ben64: h4f: so how can i use an existing iso file (rather than download an img file and use usb-imagewriter) to make a bootable usb?
[19:47] <icarus> ok i will try strangers idea
[19:47] <Ben64> DragonLord: don't do . in the middle
[19:47] <Welshy-Rob> hi 4 some reason i cant listen to radio on line?
[19:47] <cyber_666_uk> anyone: can anyone submit sofwtare to the repositories?
[19:47] <deany> icarus, save to any format..   I personally boot it from usb, and save my windows (2x ntfs) and ubuntu (2x ext4) to external drive (ext4)
[19:48] <IdleOne> cyber_666_uk: yes
[19:48] <Ben64> userone: i haven't had to make a bootable ubuntu usb, you'd have to talk to someone else
[19:48] <umutuygar> test
[19:48] <DragonLord> Ben64: okey, thanks
[19:48] <IdleOne> cyber_666_uk: #ubuntu-dev for more info
[19:48] <cyber_666_uk> thx
[19:48] <basil> userone: i have, use a program called unetbootin, very easy to use in order to make a bootable ubuntu usb
[19:48] <deany> icarus, g4l is kind of old.  I`d go for clonezilla.  the experimental (ubuntu based) one
[19:49] <alia_> hello there -- any one willing to help me with remote desktop connection to SBS 2003 over a VPN?
[19:49] <fccf> userone: download the .img file and use imagewriter ... that was made for the netbook
