[18:22] <keegan> neverblue:  i dont understand.; the inbuild speakers work , when i plug in a ear phone on ubuntu . the ear phones dont give any sound and the speakers continue with the sound
[18:22] <keegan> it dosnt happen on vista so i know its working fine
[18:23] <neverblue> keegan, so speakers work, headphones dont ?
[18:23] <dahitokiri> how would i configure the process that basically automounts a usb drive (ipod/usb stick/hard drive) upon plugging the device in?
[18:23] <mar77i> is anything known about a network-compatible search tool?
[18:23] <keegan> neverblue:  yes
[18:23] <Pici> mar77i: What do you mean?
[18:23] <neverblue> by speaker I dont mean the onboard speaker, I mean a speaker you plug into your soundcard
[18:24] <mar77i> I mean something I could search through windows network folders and/or files
[18:24] <dahitokiri> mar77i, if you can mount the folders, you can search em as normal
[18:24] <keegan> neverblue:  well its a laptop , if i plug speakers into my ear phone jack it dosnt work
[18:24] <Pici> mar77i: from the comand line?
[18:24] <mar77i> oh... right
[18:24] <keegan> neverblue:  basically no out put from the earphone jack
[18:25] <neverblue> keegan, that helps to know... so you sound card, you need to change the volume to your sound card (possibly the issue)
[18:25] <neverblue> your*
[18:25] <dahitokiri> mar77i, welcome to linux. where the things are so simple sometimes that it's confusing :)
[18:25] <amilo> hi how do i set default soundcard i have two, i tried in settings it doesnt work
[18:25] <keegan> neverblue:  how do i change the volume to my sound card
[18:25] <neverblue> keegan, what application are you using to 'listen' with (please list only one)
[18:26] <neverblue> keegan, there is a speaker by your 'clock', usually....
[18:26] <dahitokiri> how would i configure the process that basically automounts a usb drive (ipod/usb stick/hard drive) upon plugging the device in?
[18:26] <keegan> amarok
[18:26] <Pici> amilo: use `asoundconf list` and `asoundconf set-default-card`
[18:26] <poeloq> Does anybody know of any good ebay software for linux?
[18:26] <amilo> pici: there is a little tool it worked for me dont you know the name or is it asoundconf i check
[18:26] <mar77i> Pici: I don't see the mountings from bash
[18:27] <neverblue> keegan, ok, when you enter 'volume control'. you want to make sure you check file/change device, you may have more than one listed
[18:27] <CatsceoSSH> shouldn't they be in /media?
[18:27] <Jack_Sparrow> !sound
[18:27] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[18:27] <Pici> amilo: asoundconf is the command line interface to that tool
[18:28] <amilo> pici: thx
[18:28] <burwaco> hello
[18:28] <mar77i> to be more precise: I don't see the Mountings I've made by gnome gui from bash
[18:28] <FluxD> Can XMMS or amarok play mms streams?
[18:28] <Cherubael> Pici; YOU ARE A LEGEND! Wireless up and working! Thank you so much
[18:28] <Pici> Cherubael: You're welcome :D
[18:28] <burwaco> hehe
[18:28] <dahitokiri> how would i configure the process that basically automounts a usb drive (ipod/usb stick/hard drive) upon plugging the device in?
[18:29] <Jack_Sparrow> !fstab
[18:29] <ubotu> The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[18:29] <keegan> neverblue:  when i double click on the speaker icon i get some master and pcm . both are at full volume
[18:29] <burwaco> I have a small problem too, can anyone on gutsy try this page please, try and play one of the quicktime movies, I tried all plugins, none work... http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/elegant/program_d.html
[18:29] <neverblue> keegan, read my previous post please
[18:30] <danbhfive> burwaco: try it on windows
[18:30] <burwaco> danbhfive: win ? what ?
[18:30] <danbhfive> burwaco, i get a location not found error, so it may not be a linux problem
[18:31] <burwaco> danbhfive: maybe server is down ?
[18:31] <burwaco> danbhfive: you're on windows ?
[18:31] <Centaur5> join #ubuntu-server
[18:31] <danbhfive> burwaco: nvm, i think im wrong
[18:31] <danbhfive> no
[18:31] <keegan> neverblue:  i dont understand it , what check file change device means .
[18:32] <patrickneville> is there a good tutorial to get the main (top) menu bar to act as the toolbar for the focused application?
[18:32] <CatsceoSSH> burwaco: I'm on a Mac right now and NOVA wants quicktime to play a flash file, in otherwords they are currpt
[18:33] <mar77i> pici: a mount from gnome gui (where it says SMB on the icon afterwards) isn't sufficient for a search?
[18:33] <Cherubael> !nvidia
[18:33] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[18:33] <neverblue> keegan,  in 'Volume Control' there is a drop down list at the top, showing: 'File','Edit','Help', you want to click on File, which 'drops a menu', and in this menu you will find something that says: 'Change device', which gives you a new list, a list of the devices you have related to sound.  Is that more clear ?
[18:33] <burwaco> CatsceoSSH: the files on the server are broken ?
[18:33] <CatsceoSSH> and it crashed my web browser >.<
[18:33] <CatsceoSSH> burwaco: yes
[18:33] <Pici> patrickneville: I think I saw something on a page.. hold on
[18:34] <CatsceoSSH> burwaco: you could try to download them
[18:34] <CatsceoSSH> see if taht works
[18:34] <patrickneville> thanks Pici
[18:34] <CatsceoSSH> that*
[18:34] <burwaco> CatsceoSSH: how do I do that ?
[18:34] <CatsceoSSH> I think they are trying to stop pirates, and failing
[18:34] <danbhfive> d/l doesnt work for me
[18:35] <CatsceoSSH> yeah, go figure
[18:35] <starwolf> what happened to beryl ??
[18:35] <keegan> neverblue:  yes  i have sigmatel and hda intel (alsa mixer)
[18:35] <CatsceoSSH> it died
[18:35] <CatsceoSSH> ;)
[18:35] <keegan> neverblue:  i am trying sigmatel now
[18:35] <CoasterMaster> starwolf, it got merged back with compiz to create compiz-fusion
[18:36] <DB42> ho do i set my eth card from dhcp to static ?
[18:36] <starwolf> thank you
[18:36] <mar77i> a mount from gnome gui (where it says SMB on the icon afterwards) isn't sufficient for a search?
[18:36] <beasty> DB42: /etc/networking/interfaces
[18:36] <DB42> beasty, : i changed, it didn't work
[18:36] <DB42> i restarted networking
[18:36] <CatsceoSSH> reboot
[18:36] <beasty> CatsceoSSH: this ain't windows :p
[18:36] <keegan> neverblue:  still the same
[18:37] <CatsceoSSH> restart*?
[18:37] <Pici> patrickneville: Eh, I was thinking of this, but it doesnt seem to be there: http://www.howtoforge.com/mac4lin_make_linux_look_like_a_mac
[18:37] <beasty> :p
[18:37] <CatsceoSSH> ;)
[18:37] <patrickneville> yeah Pici, i see some for feisty or dapper but none for gusty, and with the new gnome i'm not too sure how they'll work out
[18:38] <zanzer7> now, there doesn't seem to be much (read: any) activity in #xubuntu, so I'ma go out on a limb and ask a xubuntu-question here: how can I make Xubuntu recognise the RELEASE of a key when mapping shortcuts? (I'm interested in getting a "Super" key press/key release open the applications menu, and have "Super + E" show Thunar, "Super + R" show run etc.)
[18:38] <beasty> DB42: what's your precise input on that interfaces file ?

[18:41] <chazco> Hi... my USB keyboard sometimes doesnt work at boot unless i move it (still switched on) to a PCI USB board... this happens regardless of which board it is initally connected to... Any ideas?
[18:41] <beasty> DB42: what gives this cmd as output ?
[18:41] <beasty> DB42: ifconfig eth1 | grep "inet addr" | awk -F":" '{print $2}' | sed -e 's/Bcast//g'
[18:41] <Jack_Sparrow> danbhfive: follow the instructions linked..
[18:42] <DB42> beasty, my current good IP via DHCP
[18:42] <DB42> but when i change it, i get disconnected ofcourse (i want a diffrent subnet)
[18:42] <beasty> and what's that ip ?
[18:42] <DB42> but when restarting networking, eth1 doesn't get up
[18:42] <DB42> my current dhcp one (which is ok, since i'm online)
[18:42] <neverblue> keegan, so you want to just change settings on the Intel card, as its the one related to your audio... there maybe a 'headphone slider' available, and you will want to adjust that, this is done in the 'Volume Control'
[18:42] <DB42> if i change t, i'll disconnect
[18:42] <MrPockets> ive got a wireless microsoft USB keyboard
[18:42] <MrPockets> and all the media buttons work
[18:43] <MrPockets> but how do i program the others like the shortcuts?
[18:43] <beasty> same here for my logitech
[18:43] <BizNiz> hi i have a Toshiba Satellite a135-s7404 with WiFi, but i hear there are no drivers for the Atheros AR5007EG chipset, what can i do about wireless internet ???
[18:43] <iGama> ppl i have a question, when i press the unmount volume, what is the script that is executed?
[18:43] <DB42> beasty, why doesn't eth1 go up after that config file ?
[18:43] <neverblue> keegan, its a pretty simple app, give it a once over, in Edit/Preferences, you can add more devices (more sliders)
[18:43] <Pici> DB42: Do you have two network cards?
[18:43] <dahitokiri> BizNiz, madwifi
[18:43] <DB42> pici: yes
[18:43] <DB42> but i dont use the other one
[18:43] <DB42> (for now)
[18:43] <beasty> mm
[18:43] <iGama> I wanted to know what's the commando to force the data to be wrote on the USB
[18:43] <CatsceoSSH> iGama: umount /path/to/divice
[18:43] <beasty> where's eth0 ?
[18:43] <Pici> !enter | DB42
[18:43] <ubotu> DB42: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[18:43] <BizNiz> dahitokiri, they say it doesnt work with my card
[18:44] <dahitokiri> BizNiz, then ndiswrapper
[18:44] <keegan> neverblue:  how do i get this heard phone slider ?
[18:44] <Iwanowitch> Grargh. Wireless interface shows up with iwconfig, but iwlist scan tells me "Interface doesn't support scaning : no such device". What gives?
[18:44] <DB42> beasty, eth0 is up
[18:44] <zero-1> is there any postfix / mysql / sasl expert in this room that can help me figure something out?
[18:44] <iGama> CatsceoSSH, but there is a command to force the data to be writen to the USB
[18:44] <DB42> dunno how and dont care :)
[18:44] <neverblue> keegan, its a pretty simple app, im sure youll figure it out
[18:44] <Pici> DB42: Please be respectful here.
[18:44] <CatsceoSSH> iGama: what are you trying to do?
[18:44] <beasty> DB42: do /etc/init.d/networking restart
[18:44] <beasty> should work
[18:44] <keegan> there is no such option in the speaker icon
[18:44] <DB42> beasty, but it doesn\'t and this is why i am here....
[18:45] <beasty> DB42: got any errors ?
[18:45] <DB42> where?
[18:45] <keegan> neverblue: there is no such option in the speaker icon  do i have to install it from synaptic
[18:45] <beasty> DB42: do ifdown eth1; ifup eth1
[18:45] <DB42> it says OK so i guess no
[18:45] <beasty> and see if that gives any errors
[18:45] <srccode> why doesn't ifup eth0 ifdown eth0 type command work in ubuntu?  interface not defined?? but it shows if up when i ifconfig... what happen!?
[18:45] <iGama> CatsceoSSH,  Its like this, when u copy data to a USB pen, only when u Unmount the volume, the data is writen correctly to the pen. There is a command to force that whenever i want the data to be writen
[18:45] <beasty> srccode: do you get a ip adress ?
[18:45] <DB42> works on dhcp
[18:46] <Pici> DB42: Can you pastebin the output of ifconfig?
[18:46] <iGama> I had that command, but I formatted my install and forgot to write :S
[18:46] <iGama> write the command
[18:46] <DB42> ok, brb
[18:46] <CatsceoSSH> iGama: sorry, I need to go, there is no command I know of to do that :/
[18:46] <dahitokiri> so i have an external hard drive (/dev/sdX) that i have encrypted using LUKS. i don't want to have to enter a password during boot up but would still like the mount mappings carried over so i can just do mount <mountpoint> and i'll be prompted for the passphrase. how would i go about achieving this?

[18:57] <raylu> wouldn't that start an X server on the remote computer?
[18:57] <kirtan> thanks ubotu
[18:57] <Mark761966> What do I need to download from the Konstructor site, Jack?
[18:57] <cluelessguy> Is it possible for Creative X-Fi soundcards to work with the latest build of Ubuntu?
[18:57] <stuart> hi guys. how do i view .rm files? i've mplayer installed but that nor totem seems to do the job
[18:58] <EtteSB> whats the diffrence between tar.gz and tar.bz2?
[18:58] <Jack_Sparrow> Mark761966: I thought it was reconctructor.. but he may have changed the name
[18:58] <raylu> EtteSB, one is gzipped and one is bz2zipped...just different formats
[18:58] <Jack_Sparrow> Mark761966: let me look./.
[18:58] <Mark761966> Yeah, Reconstructor
[18:58] <Mark761966> Whoops
[18:58] <cool> stuart, use real player
[18:58] <Radi01> kirtan: http://www.medibuntu.org/
[18:59] <Tom74> #grub
[18:59] <Tom74> ups
[18:59] <Jack_Sparrow> Mark761966: http://reconstructor.aperantis.com/
[18:59] <stuart> cool, what's the apt-get package name?
[18:59] <Mark761966> I'm there
[18:59] <Mark761966> The downloads page is confusing Jack
[19:00] <cluelessguy> X-Fi, anyone?
[19:00] <MystaMax> Mark761966, theres a manual on this page, http://reconstructor.aperantis.com/index.php?option=com_remository&Itemid=33&func=select&id=3
[19:00] <cool> stuart, its a restricted package so its not in the official repos
[19:00] <cool> check for mediaubuntu repo
[19:00] <Tom74> can anyone tell me what the problem is with my GRUB?
[19:00] <Tom74> it is detectet as (2,0) while grub is on (0,1) and ubuntu on (1,4) and so it shouldnt matter is this drive is on or not, but with it connected GRUB reports "error 22" and without it works
[19:00] <Mark761966> Looks like it only runs on Fiesty
[19:00] <Tom74> my s-ata disk, thats is
[19:00] <sylverfox> hi all
[19:01] <MystaMax> hi
[19:01] <sylverfox> i have a pixelview Bt878 and i don't know, how to set it up, on ubuntu gutsy
[19:01] <sylverfox> i installed already tvtime
[19:01] <RoyK> any ideas how to make sound work on this old thinkpad T20?
[19:01] <sylverfox> and it semms that my card is recognized
[19:01] <jalompuhr> hello
[19:01] <jalompuhr> i got a question
[19:02] <jalompuhr> why is it that users may not use root as their login?
[19:02] <Pici> !sudo | jalompuhr please read this
[19:02] <ubotu> jalompuhr please read this: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[19:02] <Jack_Sparrow> Mark761966: http://files.filefront.com/reconstructor+261targz/;9113555;/fileinfo.html
[19:03] <Mark761966> Oh God. It's a tar
[19:03] <jalompuhr> well, sudo doesnt work well
[19:03] <Jack_Sparrow> !root
[19:03] <ubotu> Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[19:03] <Pici> jalompuhr: Why not?
[19:03] <Radi01> Jack+Pici Rock.pay attention.
[19:03] <Pici> Radi01: hm?
[19:03] <cizarr_> another problem.. seems like ubuntu disconnect/kill my pptp connection every couple of min's... anyone have a clue?
[19:03] <jalompuhr> yes cizarr_
[19:03] <Jack_Sparrow> Mark761966: it isnt that bad.. remastering isnt easy, but that script wasnt bad..
[19:03] <Radi01> YOU know You are stuf.
[19:03] <MystaMax> cizarr, are you on wireless? i have that problem on wireless
[19:03] <Pici> jalompuhr: What kind of issues are you having with it?
[19:04] <Pici> Radi01: I dont understand?
[19:04] <Arelis> Guys, i notice Firefox is very much slower in Ubuntu than on Windows. What gives?
[19:04] <Mark761966> I always have problems with tars, Jack
[19:04] <Jack_Sparrow> Arelis: It isnt
[19:04] <cizarr_> how should i fix it jalompuhr?
[19:04] <cizarr_> MystaMax: nope.. on wired
[19:04] <Radi01> I compliment those who teach those who are beginners..politely.
[19:05] <TFrog> Arelis, there are many sites dedicated to FireFox speedups. they work well with windows as well as linux
[19:05] <jeward> How do I install webcollage for xscreensaver on gutsy?
[19:05] <dahitokiri> Jack_Sparrow, ok, let me ask a slightly different question then. i have an external drive that i use a usb connection with. i don't want the drive mounted on boot or when i plug it in, only when i ask the computer to via commandline. but i'd still like the same device to be mounted at the same place every time. how would i accomplish this?
[19:05] <amonkey> is there a way to blacklist a certain wifi network on nm-applet? it keeps auto connecting to the wrong network.
[19:05] <Mark761966> Okay, I'm in the reconstructor directory. What's the next command?
[19:06] <cluelessguy> I have no idea what I'm doing. :-( Can anyone help me get on the right track for fixing my soundcard?
[19:06] <Mark761966> mkdir?
[19:06] <Mark761966> Or /.config?
[19:06] <geirha> dahitokiri: you add an entry for it in fstab
[19:07] <Jack_Sparrow> dahitokiri: dont know how you would do that.  not wanting it to mount when powered up or when it is plugged in and only by command line...
[19:07] <Arelis> TFrog: Can you link me to a few?
[19:07] <MystaMax> Mark761966, did you read the documentation?
[19:07] <kerik> cheers guys
[19:07] <MystaMax> Mark761966, it tells you what you need to install and how to run it
[19:07] <kerik> can anybody tell me which folder I should save before I format my desk?
[19:07] <TFrog> Arelis, just use google and search for FireFox speedups. it's how i found many pages dedicated to it
[19:07] <kerik> disk even
[19:08] <MystaMax> Arelis, is firefox slow to load pages?
[19:08] <Jack_Sparrow> Mark761966: you will probably need pythion tools or such.. you will need to read the docs.. I have not used it since beta
[19:08] <Vandalite> you can format a desk? cool! you gotta teach me how to do that :)
[19:08] <Jack_Sparrow> :)
[19:08] <Radi01> no firefox is relatively fast.
[19:08] <kerik> Vandalite, lol....yeah...it's my special move ;)
[19:08] <Radi01> should be if it is set
[19:09] <Jack_Sparrow> Radi01: I already suggested that it was not Firefox as much as his connection speed
[19:09] <kerik> but which folder should I keep if I want to save my documents and settings=
[19:09] <kerik> ?
[19:09] <agruman> anyone here that have got a Ati HD2600XT working ok with playback? I get terrible tearing, just want to confirm that it works for someone. (using latest fglrx driver)
[19:09] <Radi01> oh ok sorry
[19:09] <TFrog> anyone know if there will be any updates to the fglrx drivers in the repositories? it seems the repository drivers are the only ones that will work on my laptop. i can't get the latest ATI drivers to work on this laptop
[19:09] <dahitokiri> geirha, thats what i'm thinking too. i know the noauto flag would potentially be involved. but i don't know how to distinguish the drive from all other drives as at one point it can be /dev/sda and at another, it can be /dev/sdb
[19:09] <Jack_Sparrow> Radi01: Np  He ignored it anyway
[19:09] <Radi01> lol typical
[19:09] <MystaMax> kerik, /home/kerik, assuming your login name is kerik
[19:09] <Arelis> MystaMax: not really
[19:09] <Jack_Sparrow> dahitokiri: uuid shoud take care of that part
[19:09] <MystaMax> Arelis, then what is slow
[19:09] <Arelis> MystaMax: but it just makes the computer slower and the browser itself is slow
[19:09] <kerik> MystaMax, thanks a lot mate!
[19:10] <agruman> TFrog not all cards are supported with the latest driver, checked if yours are?
[19:10] <tru_`z24> Is there any way with the ubuntu install cd to simply copy the install from another hard disk to a new one?
[19:10] <TFrog> i did agruman. the 200m ati chipset is supported
[19:10] <dahitokiri> Jack_Sparrow, how do i find out the uuid of an external drive? it's not liked in /etc/blkik.tab
[19:10] <Jack_Sparrow> !clone
[19:10] <ubotu> To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade » - See also !automate
[19:10] <ax> is there a gui app to open ports in gutsy?
[19:10] <agruman> TFrog then what is your problem?
[19:10] <jalompuhr> HEHE
[19:11] <Radi01> Wow: after converting to Ubuntu I found that it is easier than windows..go figure..I will not comment after this .
[19:11] <jalompuhr> yes rad01
[19:11] <tru_`z24> !automate
[19:11] <Jack_Sparrow> dahitokiri: sudo vol_id -u /dev/sda7           is how I do it for normal drives

[19:11] <tim2> Anyone having an issue with the search functionality of Evolution Mail is broken ? I am using it with MS Exchange OWA
[19:11] <Alyxander> Radi01, congratulations im still trying to get my mother to convert lol
[19:12] <jalompuhr> tim2, use webmail
[19:12] <poeloq> is there anyway to cap my max upload speed
[19:12] <TFrog> when installing the latest drivers from ATI i still get the mesa driver instead of the ati driver to load. i've followed the howto at cchtml site specifically and did all the troubleshooting steps to no avail
[19:12] <tim2> through firefox?
[19:12] <jalompuhr> yes
[19:12] <mihaX14> my mom is converted fully hehe
[19:12] <tim2> well so then there is an issue
[19:12] <Radi01> lol Alyx: she is used to complication..enjoy converting.
[19:12] <dahitokiri> Jack_Sparrow, thanks! that solved the last problem :)
[19:12] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[19:13] <agruman> TFrog whats the output in xorg log? Id bet the kernel module isnt loaded or the wrong one is
[19:13] <Alyxander> if i could get her to just say yes id be great no more having to fix the stupid BSoD
[19:13] <tim2> I am aware of the webmail workaround, I am more interested in whether this is a known bug or a single instance
[19:13] <Radi01> Alyx: Do it in secret and tell her it was an update.
[19:13] <mihaX14> lol
[19:13] <TFrog> haven't tried that since a reload. probably don't have that log anymore. however, if i try it again, i'll look at that specifically.
[19:14] <Jack_Sparrow> Alyxander: set it to dual boot, when she has a problem, let her know she can still get online with UB and you will be there to fix MS in a couple days.  It worked for a couple of my familymembers
[19:14] <agruman> TFrog the guide worked ok for me, though the symlink stage (ln /lib.../misc /lib.../volatile) is just bad, skip that and just do a "depmod -a" instead and you will be fine
[19:14] <TFrog> ty agruman
[19:14] <TFrog> that also is a possibility
[19:14] <jalompuhr> tim2: well, you need to read the source code then
[19:14] <agruman> TFrog np
[19:14] <Alyxander> right on Jack_Sparrow
[19:15] <TFrog> maybe in a week or two once things settle down here i'll give it another go
[19:15] <tim2> your still not answering my question
[19:15] <Radi01> Lol jack is on spot.
[19:15] <TFrog> for now i get respectable fps out of the repository driver
[19:15] <Jack_Sparrow> Alyxander: It didnt work on my wife...
[19:15] <agruman> TFrog ive tried everything myself to get the bloody driver working, and though it does i get such a terrible tearing playing video that it is unwatchable :(
[19:15] <Radi01> loooo wif e\
[19:15] <jskulski> trying to set up ldap and getent passwd isn't showing anything, but wireshark is shoing a bunch of ldap requests and results, ideas?
[19:15] <Alyxander> lol Jack_Sparrow
[19:16] <Jack_Sparrow> Alyxander: No patience and NO sense of humor
[19:16] <Radi01> Windows is now adjar..
[19:16] <ax> so does ubuntu no, by default, close all ports except 22?
[19:16] <jalompuhr> why don't i see any visual activity in root, for nm-applet 0.6.5 ?
[19:16] <TFrog> thanks for that info agruman. i've heard that AMD/ATI are going to open source most of their driver work on linux as well as windows now. should prove interesting
[19:16] <ax> s/no/now
[19:16] <mbuf> what package is required for gnome-build-1.0?
[19:16] <Alyxander> man thats crazy i dont see any reason to stay on a flawed os now that linux has pretty much fixed everything jack_
[19:16] <arimakun> saludos
[19:17] <agruman> TFrog yeah, it sure will, but that doesnt help us at the moment though :P .. But reference 2D drivers and full specs will be nice
[19:17] <arimakun> alguien me puede alludar con una preguntita ??

[19:18] <wib> hi. i used to be able to create templates (for office docs or so) as easy as putting a template file in ~/Templates/ and then create them in nautilus with a simple right click->new file in 7.4. this doesn't work anymore in 7.10?
[19:18] <TFrog> it's funny agruman. when i first loaded gutsy, the mesa driver did about 1220fps. the repository fglrx driver only improved it by maybe 40fps
[19:18] <Radi01> I am a staunch supporter.
[19:18] <King-Ubuntu> The only Boo boo I have with Ubuntu is not being able to synch my Nokia 6681 with Evolution or any other app. I can transfer stuff from the phone and to the phone though :D
[19:18] <Radi01> Nuff said: I remain quiet.
[19:19] <Alyxander> im going to get bumper stickers that say "embrace the penguin!"
[19:19] <stuart> aw man, how'd i install realplayer on 7.10?
[19:19] <bieb> tru_'z24  ... use dd
[19:19] <agruman> TFrog heh, either fglrx sux or mesa is realy good :O
[19:19] <jalompuhr> Radio01 windows is not open source
[19:19] <Radi01> jal: well said.

[19:20] <jalompuhr> symtab: use Swiftweasel
[19:20] <Jack_Sparrow> symtab: Where did you get the upgrade?
[19:20] <TFrog> lol agruman. agreed. but the people with the mesa project have been working with ati so it will only get better. now if i can only find a good replacement for MS Frontpage since i don't know html or other web based code. i get that then it's bye bye windows for good. though i'll have to support it as a certified tech
[19:21] <symtab> Jack_Sparrow: default
[19:21] <symtab> ii  firefox                                    <IP_ADDRESS>+2nobinonly-0ubuntu<IP_ADDRESS>       lightweight web browser based on Mozilla
[19:21] <danbhfive> I lost the wireless network indicator thingy in the task bar, anyone know how to get that back?
[19:21] <agruman> TFrog, cant give you any suggestions there, more than that i personaly hate frontpage .. :/
[19:22] <mrpockets> hey guys. I'm having sound issues again
[19:22] <jalompuhr> mrpockets: what problem?
[19:22] <mrpockets> if i've got onboard 5.1 as well as a SB audigy 5.1 card
[19:22] <mrpockets> do i need to disable the onboard card?
[19:22] <TFrog> you and me both. i did get some info from someone here for a person like me who doesn't do html. it might work with Quanta
[19:23] <Sardukar> Where do people go to sell e-mail addresses?
[19:23] <Jack_Sparrow> mrpockets: Probably better if you did
[19:23] <mrpockets> so how do i go about doing that?
[19:23] <Pici> Sardukar: That isn't appropriate for this channel.
[19:23] <Jack_Sparrow> mrpockets: cmos/bios
[19:23] <mrpockets> ah
[19:23] <mrpockets> right
[19:23] <Jack_Sparrow> Sardukar: not worth the effort... and NOT appreciated in here
[19:23] <mihaX14> When I'm playing music for example on xmms, sound doesn't work in browser or anywhere else. Sound works only in the first thing that broadcasts audio.
[19:23] <mrpockets> lol never woulda thought of that
[19:24] <cool> Sardukar, HELL!!
[19:24] <Jack_Sparrow> !sound
[19:24] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[19:25] <mrpockets> yeah
[19:25] <mrpockets> i've got sound now
[19:25] <jalompuhr> mrpocket:  get the new ALSA drivers

[19:29] <akincer> Anyone seen a strange problem with ARP entries being mangled with the local MAC instead of the remote?
[19:29] <Radi01> Honest people have the power: Power to Ubuntu.

[19:31] <PirateHead> How do you use the U.S. English International keyboard?
[19:31] <genii> akincer: Not lately. But another time on 6.06, yes. I repaired it then by editing /etc/iftab mac entry to end arp 0  instead of arp 1   - these days i dunno the fix, since dbus, etc etc
[19:31] <PirateHead> I want to type an a with an accent, for example - how do I do that?
[19:31] <lousygarua> my cd burner has stopped burning :( no matter what program i use (k3b/brasero), it burnt before, is there a low-level burner package to reinstall?
[19:31] <_nix_> Andycasss: you may want to make a script to fire off that command and add it to the gnome startup
[19:31] <stuart> if i wanna install a .deb file, i dpkg -i filename right?
[19:31] <zylmak> hello im trying to install ubuntu server and i need some help
[19:31] <erUSUL> Andycasss: log in (as your user) or boot up (as root)
[19:32] <_nix_> stuart: right
[19:32] <genii> stuart: maybe use sudo in front, but otherwise yes
[19:32] <lousygarua> zylmak, what help you need?
[19:32]  * jalompuhr smokin wazaaaaaaaaaaaaaap smoke
[19:32] <stuart> does dpkg filename work? what's -i for?
[19:32] <lousygarua> zylmak, there's also #ubuntu-server if you didn't know
[19:32] <akincer> genii: I'm trying to replicate it now, but an IP that I had an entry in the hosts file for stored my local MAC instead of a remote
[19:32] <erUSUL> stuart: install
[19:32] <hottium> stuart: propably to install
[19:32] <_nix_> stuart: i for install
[19:32] <akincer> it also showed the first hosts entry instead of the IP address in the ARP table
[19:32] <stuart> oh. straightforward enough. thanks.
[19:32] <Andycasss> Okay, but how do i add a switch to pureftp? like this: -l puredb:/path/to/puredb_file
[19:32] <zylmak> thanks lousygarua
[19:32] <akincer> I fixed it by manually coding the correct MAC for the remote IP
[19:33] <_nix_> stuart: you might want to check out the dependencies with dpkg -I <filename>
[19:33] <stuart> now i just hope vlc plays realmedia or else i'll have to dpkg realplayer :/
[19:33] <PirateHead> How do you use the U.S. English International keyboard? I want to type an a with an accent, for example - what keys do I press to do that?
[19:33] <stuart> _nix_, will do.
[19:33] <hilltop> hello i binded letter and i can not type the letter in the keyboard?
[19:33] <genii> akincer: Weird. Offhand I have no fix for this
[19:33] <hilltop> ho to undo?
[19:33] <jalompuhr> why is there no option to start programs minimizet in gksu?
[19:33] <Radi01> I am Emailing (canoncial) about Pici.
[19:33] <jalompuhr> minimized
[19:34] <hilltop> hello i binded letter and i can not type the letter in the keyboard?
[19:34] <tomasko> Pici's helpful :)
[19:34] <jalompuhr> like --start-hidden
[19:34] <RazzoRz> Not too sure who was here when we were talking about Seamless mouse movement with innotek vbox and i mentioned that i could in the past move my mouse from ubuntu to (XP ) host with out releaseing it useing Ctrl....
[19:34] <_nix_> Andycasss: open the terminal and enter gedit $HOME/pureftpd and type the while command like in the new file.. save it.. change its permissions "chmod +x pureftpd" and add _this_ file to the startup
[19:34] <Jack_Sparrow> Radi01: Feel free. but Pici works his/her tail off in here
[19:34] <erUSUL> Radi01: what makes you thing we care about it?
[19:35] <jalompuhr> a nice option would be: gksu -sh (program)
[19:35] <hilltop> i binded Some  letterS  and NoW i can not type theSe LeterS in the keyboard?
[19:35] <tomasko> jalompuhr: That's what sudo is for.
[19:35] <hilltop> HoW TO REVERSE
[19:35] <akincer> genii: No worries, I fixed it by using arp -s IP MAC
[19:35] <jskulski> i'm trying to set up ldap, but nss is ignoring the results. i can see the network traffic
[19:35] <_nix_> jalompuhr: there's usuall a switch for -iconised in a lot of X programs
[19:36] <EtteSB> im trying to compile gparted. im following the instructions but when i run './configure' it doesn't make a makefile, it gives "configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables" as an error
[19:36] <jskulski> ldap client authentication, that is
[19:36] <Pici> EtteSB: Install the build-essential package
[19:36] <genii> akincer: :) I made a note of that now
[19:36] <Jack_Sparrow> EtteSB: why are you compiling gparted?
[19:36] <_nix_> EtteSB: you're on gutsy? try installing the package build-essentials
[19:36] <invader> so, is it a common problem that ubuntu doesn't use any hardware you plug into your board?
[19:36] <jalompuhr> tomasko: so i can start a program minimized as root with sudo --start-hidden?
[19:36] <EtteSB> Jack_Sparrow: is there a .deb for it?
[19:37] <Jack_Sparrow> EtteSB: yes
[19:37] <Pici> EtteSB: Its in the Ubuntu repositories, and on the live CD.
[19:37] <Jack_Sparrow> EtteSB: It is in the repos, there are live cd's and more
[19:37] <EtteSB> Jack_Sparrow: runs to synaptic :3 (thanks)
[19:37] <PirateHead> How do you use the U.S. English International keyboard? I want to type an a with an accent, for example - what keys do I press to do that?
[19:37] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[19:37] <melkor> How do I use apt-get to download source?
[19:37] <Pici> melkor:  apt-get source packagename
[19:37] <invader> wow, how does anything get accomplished here
[19:38] <Jack_Sparrow> melkor: make sure synaptic has sources enabled and make sure sources.list has deb-src uncommented
[19:38] <ror> why are there some many foss financial management programs but no exercise/fitness ones?
[19:38] <melkor> the first way seemed to work.
[19:38] <Pici> PirateHead: either use the 'character map' from accessories, or look at /msg ubotu layout
[19:39] <alex-weej> every time i boot i have to run (/etc/init.d/networking restart) for my wifi connection to work... what gives
[19:39] <alex-weej> ?
[19:39] <_nix_> ror: I guess givig out free software keeps the coder nice and tight..
[19:39] <rickymartin> whats the best ubuntu for laptops
[19:39] <Ramphis> how can i log on like a root ?? in the whole system or to give permisson to my normal user, for write over the Windows mount?
[19:39] <genii> invader: To answer your original question, that is the opposite of what normally happens
[19:39] <Jack_Sparrow> !hardware
[19:39] <ubotu> For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[19:39] <Pici> !sudo | Ramphis
[19:39] <ubotu> Ramphis: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[19:39] <anton> hi hab xubuntu, was nehm ich denn jetzt als audioplayer wenn ich sowas wie amarok haben will aber keine kde-libs? es gibt amarok ja auch ohne kde mit qt aber bei synaptic hab ichs net gefunden
[19:39] <genii> bah, left. Kids, no patience these days
[19:40]  * genii sips
[19:40] <Jack_Sparrow> Ramphis: that is not advised
[19:40] <Jack_Sparrow> !root
[19:40] <ubotu> Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[19:40] <Ramphis> And how I can write over the windows drive?
[19:40] <rickymartin> Jack_Sparrow: my laptop isnt listed....
[19:40] <jalompuhr> Ramphis: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-31053.html
[19:40] <_nix_> anton: can you post that in english?
[19:40] <anton> sry
[19:40] <rickymartin> if i go ahead with the installation and lets say something doesn work properly, can i get rid of it permamnently
[19:41] <Ramphis> jalo, let's see
[19:41] <Ramphis> :)
[19:41] <rickymartin> i mean the boot loader etc
[19:41] <genii> rickymartin: Investigate what issues with which laptop models at the wiki for laptop testing team
[19:41] <Jack_Sparrow> rickymartin: a livecd does not install to your hard drive.. you risk nothing... they run in ram only
[19:41] <akincer> Grrrrrr it happened again. the wrong MAC keeps getting stored for a remote server
[19:41] <_nix_> anton: there are localised channels if you're not very comfortable with the langiage
[19:41] <genii> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam
[19:42] <Jack_Sparrow> Ramphis: with gparted
[19:42] <anton> ive got xubuntu but which music-player schould i install, cause i am searching something like amarok but without kde-libs and i didnt find qt-amarok in synaptic
[19:42] <Ramphis> Jack_Sparrow ... hmm... how can i write over the windows partion?
[19:42] <Jack_Sparrow> Ramphis: look up
[19:42] <erUSUL> !ntfs | Ramphis
[19:42] <ubotu> Ramphis: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - For write access, see !NTFS-3g or !FUSE
[19:42] <Ramphis> Amm... remember I dont have ethernet :S
[19:42] <Jack_Sparrow> Ramphis: gparted is on the livecd..
[19:43] <Jack_Sparrow> Ramphis: you can check out mkfs
[19:43] <Ramphis> mkfs hmm... interesting ... let's see what it is
[19:43] <Jack_Sparrow> !mkfs
[19:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mkfs - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[19:43] <Jack_Sparrow> darn
[19:43] <Ramphis> lol
[19:43] <Pici> Ramphis: gparted is on the liveCD iirc
[19:44] <rickymartin> thanks for the reply guys...
[19:44] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[19:44] <rickymartin> can i try internet with live cd....wifi
[19:44] <Jack_Sparrow> yes
[19:44] <genii> Jack_Sparrow: I agree, the bot should say SOMEthing about formatting a filesystem....
[19:44] <Ramphis> yes, but i dont have the live CD :S what I can do is to format the whole system once again :S cuz i already have problems with the ethernet thing
[19:44] <gleaken> I am having a problem with VMWare Server always saying that there is an upgrade available, even though it is the same version
[19:45] <Jack_Sparrow> !format

[19:46] <Learning-Ubuntu> Jack_Sparrow, Is there an equivalent for the hp tool to format usb pen drives in Ubuntu ?
[19:47] <Ramphis> Jack_Sparrow
[19:47] <Ramphis> wanna help me once again please?
[19:47] <jalompuhr> !gksu
[19:47] <ubotu> If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why)
[19:47] <Jack_Sparrow> Learning-Ubuntu: pen drives are just like any other drive no need for special tools
[19:48] <Shadow147> gksudo??
[19:48] <jalompuhr> hehe yea
[19:48] <ak5_2> hi can someone help me with dpkg? I ge this message: dpkg: can't mmap package info file `/var/lib/dpkg/available': No such device
[19:48] <Jack_Sparrow> Ramphis: you just want to format a drive?
[19:48] <Learning-Ubuntu> Jack_Sparrow, Hmm I could of swore I read somethign about Windows breaking your USB sticks if you use the regular format method
[19:48] <Ramphis> Nop, my ethernet has problem and I dont know why.
[19:48] <Ramphis> I just love Linux but my ethernet is giving me problems and I dont know why.

[19:49] <jalompuhr> !ethernet
[19:49] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ethernet - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[19:49] <Ramphis> i was sending packets, but not recieving.
[19:49] <Ramphis> Shadows ... My ethernet drivers are installed already :S

[19:51] <albert> Hi, i got a problem with the installation of ubuntu dapper on my laptop. on startup the bootscreen is moved to the left, then the screen gets weird and finally it get into a fine log in screen. crtl + alt + f1 get's my screen weird again
[19:51] <RoyK> I'm trying to get this old IBM Thinkpad T20 up with ubuntu, and it works well, somehow, except I can't get the audio drivers to work properly. with or without ACPI, they work _somehow_ meaning the audio output form the OS is barely hearable.
[19:51] <albert> that's the basic description
[19:51] <ak5_2> !dpkg
[19:51] <ubotu> dpkg is the Debian package maintenance system, which together with apt forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit.
[19:51] <Ramphis> Jack_Sparrow .. So what do you tell me about it?
[19:51] <ak5_2> no links :(
[19:52] <Azzmodan> No one here wouldn't happen to be using Microsoft Sound System speakers with ubuntu would they?
[19:52] <cool> ak5_2, google it up, search on wikipedia :)
[19:52] <bozebo> hey, is it possible to change the mouse scroll wheel sensitivity??
[19:52] <Jack_Sparrow> Ramphis: I wasnt the one helping you.. I dont think.  But start by indetifying your hardware.

[19:52] <cool> ak5_2, not possible

[19:53] <linxeh> willychataigner: standard pc x86 if you have less than 4GB ram
[19:53] <cool> ak5_2, you wanna whats dpkg ?
[19:53] <bozebo> ?? who doesnt have less than 4 GB RAM?
[19:53] <linxeh> willychataigner: the 64bit one will just make your life hell (in general)
[19:53] <Jack_Sparrow> Ramphis: I am busy.. good luck.. someone will help you
[19:54] <willychataigner> ok cool
[19:54] <ak5_2> cool: nono, I need to fix a problem

[19:54] <alfermp> willychataigner: do you wanna play ubuntu on vmware?
[19:54] <kane77> is there any very minimal *buntu that is pretty much just bootable web browser?
[19:55] <bozebo> er..
[19:55] <Ramphis> Please... Anyone can help me out?
[19:55] <Azzmodan> Shadow147, it's a sound system, I wanted usb audio
[19:55] <ak5_2> !ask
[19:55] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[19:55] <linxeh> bozebo: if I could get a workstation easily with room for 64 or 128GB it would be really useful
[19:55] <jalompuhr> we need to make usbuntu
[19:55] <akincer> genii: Turns out it was an IP address conflict. Go figure
[19:55] <willychataigner> ubuntu
[19:55] <jalompuhr> for usb stick
[19:56] <JebJoya> hey, bit of an odd one, am trying to install UT GOTY edition on ubuntu gutsy, have run ut-install-436-goty-run --keep and then /ut-436-GOTY/setup.sh, but it gets a few files down then asks me to mount the CD (which is already mounted) - any ideas?
[19:56] <Pici> !install > jalompuhr (Please see the private messsage from ubotu)
[19:56] <Jack_Sparrow> jalompuhr: We already can do that
[19:56] <Ramphis> Pici, could you help me out please?
[19:56] <Shadow147> Azzmodan hmm usb audio I have never messed with
[19:56] <Scunizi> JebJoya, copy the cd to a folder and run it from there.
[19:56] <JebJoya> oh?
[19:56] <Ninnghizhidda> Is there a way to check my screen's resolution using a terminal command?
[19:56] <JebJoya> fair enough
[19:56] <JebJoya> just a straight copy?
[19:56] <ak5_2> can someone help me with this error: dpkg: can't mmap package info file `/var/lib/dpkg/available': No such device ?
[19:56] <JebJoya> is it not looking for a mounted cd?
[19:57] <JebJoya> Scunizi: ^^
[19:57] <Pici> Ramphis: Ask the question to the channel
[19:57] <Scunizi> JebJoya, that would probably work.. I don't think there are any hidden files or anything.
[19:57] <JebJoya> Scunizi: fair enough, will give it a try...
[19:57] <Scunizi> JebJoya, ya gotta give a guy time to type.
[19:57] <JebJoya> Scunizi: yeah, i know, i wasn't being impatient, just realised I hadn't said your name - some people only respond to dings
[19:57] <Ramphis> Pici ... I have problem with the ethernet ...  It is not working, It's sending packets and recieving a little bit back :S ... Weird... The case is that it is not working cuz I cannot connect to any website... :S ...
[19:57] <Scunizi> JebJoya, true enough ?)
[19:58] <Scunizi> *:)
[19:58] <genii> akincer: Glad you got it sorted out
[19:58] <RoyK> I'm trying to get this old IBM Thinkpad T20 up with ubuntu, and it works well, somehow, except I can't get the audio drivers to work properly. with or without ACPI, they work _somehow_ meaning the audio output form the OS is barely hearable.
[19:58] <Andycasss> When i want to add a command like this: "/usr/sbin/pure-ftpd-mysql -j -lpuredb:/etc/pureftpd.pdb &" for my pure ftpd. Should i edit my etc/init.d/pure-ftpd-mysql?
[19:58] <RoyK> anyone that could help?
[19:58] <ak5_2> anyone have pointers where to go if dpkg has an error?
[19:59] <_6StringKng_> can I manually change the resolution of the boot splash?
[19:59] <Scunizi> !dpkg
[19:59] <ubotu> dpkg is the Debian package maintenance system, which together with apt forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit.
[19:59] <_6StringKng_> I tried the start up manager, but it doesnt have the reso I want
[19:59] <ak5_2> Scunizi: I tried that ;)
[19:59] <Silmeria> so i installed 7.10 and its not workingl
[19:59] <Silmeria> working.*
[19:59] <mmkassem> ak5_2: what are you trying to do?
[19:59] <Scunizi> ak5_2, sorry.. I know there is a way to reset it like you do with xorg but I don't know the command.
[19:59] <RoyK> Silmeria: you have to be a bit more specific
[19:59] <Silmeria> how come the 7.10 install makes u get all this random extra stuff like 20 office programs :(
[19:59] <Ninnghizhidda> Is there a way to check my screen's resolution using a terminal command?
[20:00] <ak5_2> mmkassem: well, actually install build-essential
[20:00] <JebJoya> Scunizi: just realised, which directory should i copy to - the subdirectory made by the ut-install-436-goty.run? (that is the one which has the setup.sh in)
[20:00] <sussu_> anyone can help me??
[20:00] <ak5_2> mmkassem: but I get:
[20:00] <kane77> !notworking | Silmeria
[20:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about notworking - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[20:00] <Andycasss> In there, I can see "DAEMON=/usr/sbin/pure-ftpd-$SUFFIX else DAEMON=/usr/sbin/pure-ftpd" Should i change it to "DAEMON=/usr/sbin/pure-ftpd-mysql -j -lpuredb:/etc/pureftpd.pdb &" ?
[20:00] <ak5_2> mmkassem: dpkg: can't mmap package info file `/var/lib/dpkg/available': No such device
[20:00] <RazzoRz> There is only 5 office programs
[20:00] <sussu_> i'm trying to install amsn and can't connect
[20:00] <Ramphis> Please ... I need some help
[20:00] <johnaaronrose> Is Gutsy ever going to have 2.6.23 kernel?
[20:00] <jalompuhr> Silmeria: becouse it's an os
[20:00] <Shadow147> _6StringKng_ try locating your cards drive and your monitor in screens and resolutions
[20:00] <Silmeria> Lol
[20:00] <Shadow147> driver*
[20:00] <Ramphis> Shadow ... I think it is not that old : at all
[20:00] <Scunizi> JebJoya, no.. what I would do is just create a new directory called utinstall and drop everything there.  Then in terminal change to that dir and run the install script
[20:00] <kane77> !doesntwork | Silmeria
[20:00] <ubotu> Silmeria: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.
[20:00] <Silmeria> i want to try reinstalling 7.04
[20:01] <Ramphis> It was ok, but from day to night it stopped working :S
[20:01] <jalompuhr> why?
[20:01] <bozebo> i got amsn fine the other day, is it not letting you connect on the Synaptic package manager window?
[20:01] <mmkassem> ak5_2: you get that when you sudo apt-get install build-essentia ?
[20:01] <JebJoya> ahh, kk
[20:01] <Silmeria> well i was just in 7.10 and i clicked firefox and it froze. :(
[20:01]  * Silmeria has never had linux freeze before
[20:01] <ak5_2> mmkassem: yes
[20:01] <mmkassem> ak5_2: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[20:01] <ak5_2> mmkassem: or anything of that matter
[20:01] <jalompuhr> use swiftweasel
[20:01] <Silmeria> it also wouldnt let me get xchat from add/remove thingy
[20:01] <bozebo> my 7.10 froze a few times too (when i tried to get updates) but it worked a while later
[20:01] <bozebo> maby the server amsn is on is down
[20:01] <Silmeria> it kept saying internet connection needed to reload list or something
[20:02] <jalompuhr> yes, you need to activate the multivers downloads

[20:04] <kane77> patap, zdar...
[20:04] <patap> zdravim
[20:04] <patap> Docela se mi zalíbil

[20:05] <kane77> patap, english please :) that's the rule in this channel...
[20:05] <EtteSB> meh, found what i was after
[20:05] <ak5_2> mmkassem: nope sorry, hey don't work either - I tried that too :((
[20:05] <jalompuhr> !iptable
[20:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about iptable - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[20:05] <jalompuhr> !iptables
[20:05] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[20:05] <patap> kane77 ok :)
[20:06] <Ramphis> ... I have problem with the ethernet ...  It is not working, It's sending packets and recieving a little bit back :S ... Weird... The case is that it is not working cuz I cannot connect to any website... :S ...
[20:06] <Radi01> Pici: unban my pidgin and i will quiety.
[20:06] <kane77> Ramphis, okay.. try ifconfig and paste it to pastebin...
[20:06] <Ramphis> kane77
[20:06] <Ramphis> !pastebin
[20:06] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)

[20:07] <nicolah> after hibernate I get asked for the password, is there a way to avoid it ? (I know it's unsafe)
[20:07] <kane77> Ramphis, yes?
[20:07] <Ramphis> Kane77, just one sec
[20:07] <Andycasss> I want to change my pureftpd launch switch to "/usr/sbin/pure-ftpd-mysql -j -lpuredb:/etc/pureftpd.pdb &"
[20:07] <Andycasss> Should I use this on my /etc/init.d/pure-ftpd-mysql : "DAEMON=/usr/sbin/pure-ftpd-$SUFFIX else DAEMON=/usr/sbin/pure-ftpd" Should i change it to "DAEMON=/usr/sbin/pure-ftpd-mysql -j -lpuredb:/etc/pureftpd.pdb &" ?
[20:08] <JebJoya> Scunizi: meh, i'll wine it and see how it goes :)
[20:08] <proprietarysucks> how do I stop ubuntu from asking me to continue when it says it cannot verify the security (aka it can't access the internet) during a kickstart installation?
[20:08] <Ramphis> kane77, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/46137/
[20:09] <jalompuhr> how can i make (sudo iptables -L) continiously?
[20:09] <kane77> Ramphis, so dhclient gave you IP.. do you have DNS set?
[20:09] <proprietarysucks> also what is the kickstart syntax for a swap partition for ubuntu? the 'regular' way isn't working
[20:09] <Silmeria> when i try to install 7.04, it says cant access tyl; job action turned off
[20:09] <Silmeria> i believe, or something to that effect
[20:09] <Ramphis> Kane, my internet provider gave me two Ip's for DNS
[20:09] <ak5_2> anyone know how to solve "dpkg: can't mmap package info file `/var/lib/dpkg/available': No such device" error?
[20:09] <kane77> jalompuhr, you mean "watch"?
[20:10] <Ubmin> jalompuhr: are you saying that you want to view the firewall statistics in realtime?
[20:10] <jalompuhr> Simeria: then your copy of the os is broken or your dvd station
[20:10] <Silmeria> uh... thats not good.
[20:10] <Silmeria> how do i fix that :(
[20:10] <jalompuhr> download a new copy
[20:11] <Sharpie> Silmeria, why don't you install gutsy?
[20:11] <gnome-gnew> anybody got experience (or has info on) setting up virtual ftp users in ubuntu / proftp environment?
[20:11] <proprietarysucks> cd ubuntu-server
[20:11] <proprietarysucks> whoops
[20:11] <Silmeria> it is installed, Sharpie
[20:11] <ak5_2> Silmeria: or fix your dvddrive :(
[20:11] <Jack_Sparrow> Silmeria: if you have the iso, try burning it at the slowest speed you can.  That sometimes helps
[20:11] <Silmeria> its a new laptop
[20:11] <Ramphis> Kane77, my internet provider gave me two Ip's for DNS
[20:11] <Ubmin> gnome-gnew: a little bit
[20:11] <Silmeria> i doubt its the drive
[20:11] <Sharpie> Silmeria, so why would you want to install feisty?
[20:11] <kane77> Ramphis, did you set you dns to those IP's?
[20:11] <dad> i have a problem with my wifi , network are well detected with good reception but impossible to connect, i set off the wep encryption and try manually ip but nothing works
[20:11] <Silmeria> Sharpie, its not working for me.  it installed ALOT of stuff and i dont know how to remove it
[20:11] <Silmeria> and when i try to go to add/remove, it wont let me do anything
[20:11] <Ubmin> Silmeria: the upgrade from fiesty to gusty is pretty bad, you're better off installing gusty from the get-go
[20:12] <tommax1083> hi all! anyone know  a good organizer software for linux? agenda...calendar...todo list...my task....
[20:12] <Sharpie> Silmeria, what's not working for you?
[20:12] <Ramphis> Kane77... I set IP STATIC to Eth0 in its propierties
[20:12] <Cherubael> Hello again chaps! Wondered if you could quickly tell me how to stop X so I can install my graphics drivers?
[20:12] <Jack_Sparrow> Silmeria: Did you install a lot of stuff OUTSIDE the official repos?
[20:12] <Ubmin> tommax1083: evolution
[20:12] <Ramphis> Kane77, and I set the ones as windows, and its recieving and sending packets, but i cannot connect to anywebsite.
[20:12] <Silmeria> Jack_Sparrow, all i did was install it on my system. i didnt install anything myself
[20:12] <kane77> Pici, who do I need to contact in terms of channels? like so far #ubuntu-sk forwards to #ubuntu-cz and if I wanted the #ubuntu-sk channel
[20:12] <Silmeria> except the OS
[20:12] <gnome-gnew> hi ubmin; trying to setup a user for ftp only (maybe AuthUserFiles?); ubuntu 6.06
[20:13] <ak5_2> Well I guess I'll reinstall gutsy :( any sight recommendations for tipps on new gutsy install?
[20:13] <tommax1083> other that evolution?
[20:13] <ak5_2> uh I mean site
[20:13] <Ubmin> gnome-gnew: okay, and this is for a virtual domain?
[20:13] <Jack_Sparrow> Silmeria: Oj,, just the way you phrased it.. made me wonder
[20:13] <johnaaronrose> EtteSB On Software Sources (in System then Administration menu), select Ubuntu software tab & disable CD Rom checkbox. You should then be able to get gparted using Synaptic.
[20:13] <jalompuhr> cool, the terminal opened, gives more security with root
[20:13] <Silmeria> Jack_Sparrow, wen i try to add or remove anything, it keps asking to reload or cancel
[20:13] <kane77> Ramphis, should't it be set to dhcp in your case? if i'm not mistaken your ISP uses dhcp...
[20:13] <Sharpie> ak5_2, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Applications
[20:13] <Silmeria> and saying i need a live internet connectin
[20:13] <Silmeria> which i have
[20:13] <ak5_2> Sharpie: thanks
[20:13] <Pici> kane77: can you ask about it in #ubuntu-ops? I'm not sure what the policy is right now, and I'm a bit too busy to hunt it down
[20:13] <genii> ak5_2: Make a separate /home partition
[20:14] <SpeCon> hello all. i'm installing ispconfig for my ubuntu pc. But i need LEX to be installen
[20:14] <ak5_2> brb 1/2h ^^
[20:14] <Jack_Sparrow> Silmeria: Have you tried synaptic yet
[20:14] <kane77> Pici, ok.. thanx...
[20:14] <Ramphis> Yes :S but it is not working :S should i ask them another IP??
[20:14] <SpeCon> installed.. i don't know what that program is
[20:14] <gnome-gnew> Ubmin> nope, 1 machine, 1 domain
[20:14] <SpeCon> apt-get install lex doesn't work
[20:14] <nelsondiaze> how do you spanig
[20:14] <Silmeria> Jack_Sparrow, i did. it said same thing, but i didnt have an internet connectino when i tried that one. i just wanted to remove stuff that was already on system
[20:14] <genii> !info lex
[20:14] <ubotu> Package lex does not exist in gutsy
[20:14] <Ubmin> gnome-gnew: so what do you want to do? make it so the user only has access to his/her files and not the rest of the system?
[20:14] <SpeCon> apt-get install flex ?
[20:14] <SpeCon> !info flex

[20:15] <gnome-gnew> Ubmin> correct. only 1 subdir in the apache site root; also, i don't want him to be a linux user - no ssh, no login, just ftp
[20:15] <johnaaronrose> Is Gutsy ever going to have 2.6.23 kernel?

[20:16] <ma2> which version of ubuntu is used more by people ?
[20:16] <Ubmin> gnome-gnew: just chsh his shell to /bin/false, change his home directory to his apache directory (where he can upload/download his web files), and add the following to your proftpd.conf:  DefaultRoot ~
[20:16] <Ramphis> entra a #ubuntu-es
[20:17] <genii> !es
[20:17] <ubotu> Si busca ayuda en Español por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, allí obtendrá mas ayuda.
[20:17] <Jack_Sparrow> Silmeria: You say this is a clean install and apt-get add-remove stopped working..
[20:17] <davubuntu> Hey guys I need some help. I was trying to reassign a short cut for a compiz plugin and I accidentally made it 's'. I changed it back but since then my 's' key doesn't work at all. The only reason I can use 's' right now is because I am cutting and pasting it in. Please help
[20:17] <nelsondiaze> si pero como ????
[20:17] <Ubmin> gnome-gnew: restart proftpd and that should take care of it
[20:17] <Jack_Sparrow> Silmeria: You didnt run any scripts or chenge source.list
[20:17] <Jack_Sparrow> nelsondiaze: /j #ubuntu-es
[20:18] <Ubmin> daveshere: can you login via the console?

[20:18] <KippiX> ok
[20:18] <davubuntu> Ubmin: I gue I could. WIll uing a terminal be of any ue
[20:18] <Ubmin> :)
[20:19] <gnome-gnew> Ubmin> my proftpd is DefaultRoot is /var/www; if johnny's unix home dir is /var/www/johnny-files, will proftpd limit johnny to his directory?
[20:19] <nelsondiaze> ok, gracias
[20:19] <Ubmin> davubuntu: i would logout of gnome, switch to the console and login, then remove your compiz dot-directories and try logging into X again
[20:19] <davubuntu> ubmin: or I could jut go to Ctrl + Alt + F1
[20:19] <Ubmin> davubuntu: yes, that's what the console is :)
[20:20] <Ubmin> gnome-gnew: you will need to change the DefaultRoot from /var/www to ~
[20:20] <elliotjhug> Hi all, any ideas on how to change the default app that opens when I plug my iPod in? Right now its Rhythmbox - but ideally it'd be banshee
[20:21] <Ubmin> Ubmin: as long as it's set to ~, then yes, it will limit him only to /var/www/johnny-files
[20:21] <Ubmin> Ubmin: if it's set to /var/www, then he has access to all of /var/www
[20:22] <cool> elliotjhug, System>preferences> preferred applications
[20:22] <gnome-gnew> Ubmin > there's other users, unix users, who have to ftp into the machine and be able to access all of /var/www
[20:22] <elliotjhug> cool: thanks
[20:22] <cool> elliotjhug, :)
[20:22] <zapp> hi everyone
[20:22] <Andycasss> I want to change my pureftpd launch switch to "/usr/sbin/pure-ftpd-mysql -j -lpuredb:/etc/pureftpd.pdb &"
[20:22] <Andycasss> Should I use this on my /etc/init.d/pure-ftpd-mysql : "DAEMON=/usr/sbin/pure-ftpd-$SUFFIX else DAEMON=/usr/sbin/pure-ftpd" Should i change it to "DAEMON=/usr/sbin/pure-ftpd-mysql -j -lpuredb:/etc/pureftpd.pdb &" ?
[20:23] <Ubmin> gnome-gnew: well unless you have some virtual domains, then that will echo for everyone
[20:23] <gnome-gnew> Ubmin, thanks
[20:23] <zapp> q
[20:23] <AdeptSix> any reason why I can't see the nicknames list in the channel using xchat?
[20:24] <Ubmin> gnome-gnew: the problem, however, is that proftpd is IP-based, as it is a limitation of the ftp protocol itself
[20:24] <iamben_> im trying to install flashplugin-nonfree, i need to do it through my proxy... i set the proxy in synaptic but when it goes to fetch the file it doesnt use the proxy... ideas?
[20:24] <cool> AdeptSix, xchat should display it  in right corner of screen :o
[20:24] <jalompuhr> is there a way to format a harddrive and leave the os running in the memory?
[20:24] <Ubmin> gnome-gnew: as long as your virtual domains reside on their own IP and they're not sharing the same IP together, then it will work.
[20:24] <AdeptSix> It's not there.
[20:25] <AdeptSix> I'm using XCHAT-GNOME
[20:25] <gnome-gnew> Ubmin> I was hoping to set up a text file, which proftpd could use to get some "username | password | dir " in addition to the ubuntu users
[20:25] <Learning-Ubuntu> AdeptSix, It can be resized  most likely
[20:25] <soundray> AdeptSix: click on the 1250 Users button
[20:25] <gnome-gnew> Ubmin > i might be asking for a little too much :)
[20:25] <AdeptSix> ahhhh
[20:25] <AdeptSix> nifty.
[20:26] <AdeptSix> thanks.
[20:26] <leandro_> dfdfd
[20:26] <Ubmin> gnome-gnew: you *CAN* limit who can and cannot login to the domain...
[20:26] <leandro_> ok
[20:26] <Ubmin> gnome-gnew: and it's all done in the same config file
[20:27] <adfw> If I just installed tomcat5, where would the webapps directory be?
[20:27] <Ubmin> Ubmin: with <Limit> ... </Limit>
[20:27] <seqizz> hi, banshee gives me no sound since the upgrade of gstreamer or some others.. here is the debug info: http://pastebin.com/m69e59d8a can u help ? :) thanks
[20:27] <Ubmin> er
[20:27] <Ubmin> gnome-gnew: with <Limit> ... </Limit>
[20:27] <uk-emperor> has anyone found that the ubuntu boot screen causes the screen to go blank?
[20:27] <Ubmin> incorrect: blank?
[20:28] <Ubmin> i've seen the screen go blank, but the light on the monitor typically remains in a solid green state
[20:28] <incorrect> you have to remove the 'splash' option
[20:28] <Ubmin> eventually it changes
[20:28] <davubuntu> ubmin: do think it would be called .xcompmgrrc ?
[20:28] <incorrect> it does something very nasty to the video card so x doesn't display
[20:28] <laurent_> jump
[20:29] <Slart> gnome-gnew: are you just setting up a ftp-server?
[20:29] <incorrect> however if you keep in a text mode before going to x everything is fine
[20:29] <gnome-gnew> Ubmin > that doesn't help - it controls the reverse of what i need to; johnny needs full access to his subdirectory... and only to his subdir
[20:29] <Slart> gnome-gnew: pure-ftp handles virtual users if that's all you want
[20:29] <incorrect> i have a gf8800gts
[20:29] <Ubmin> incorrect: using what video card and what driver?
[20:29] <Niche25> Hey everyone!!
[20:30] <Ubmin> gnome-gnew: you still haven't answered if the virtual domain has its own IP or not - that's the deciding factor
[20:30] <Niche25> How is everyone doing today?
[20:30] <incorrect> Ubmin, well doesn't matter what drive, as this is kernel level
[20:30] <CyberCod> I'm getting kernel panic lockup whenever the screensaver comes on... can anyone help me with this?
[20:30] <Ubmin> incorrect: tell me what drivers you've used
[20:30] <cool> which is better OGG or MP3?
[20:30] <gnome-gnew> Ubmin> sorry, yes, own IP
[20:30] <jaybird7> hello, I saw a website somewhere that went through getting dual boot to work with Vista, it said how to use Windows partion thing to do the partition, and i think talked about how to handle the dual boot screen since windows wasnt gonna let linux do it or work with grub or something... any ideas what im talking about or what i need to do?
[20:30] <Ubmin> cool: 'better'? for?
[20:30] <kowboz> guten tag
[20:31] <incorrect> Ubmin, the boot logo has nothing to do with drivers
[20:31] <kowboz> was?
[20:31] <Silmeria> could i not be able to install 7.04 because theres something to do with 7.10 already being installed on the machine?
[20:31] <DB42> i'm trying to compile "ntp" source code, but it doesn't work, anybody tried it ?
[20:31] <erUSUL> cool: ogg
[20:31] <Niche25> I am the newest - biggest fan of Ubuntu
[20:31] <cool> Ubmin, i have my songs library, was think of converting it OGG
[20:31] <Ubmin> gnome-gnew: okay, then it's possible - just set the virtual domain ip to limit access to only the user johnny and default his root to ~, it should remain independent of the other unix users, just make sure you set it all in the <VirtualHost> directive
[20:31] <cool> but someone said aac is goof
[20:32] <Pici> !doesntwork | DB42
[20:32] <ubotu> DB42: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.
[20:32] <Niche25> finally got it exactly the way I wanted it, way better than anything out there. I had been using Fedora6,7,8 after leaving Vista
[20:32] <Ubmin> cool: do you play them on an ipod or anything?
[20:32] <davubuntu> Ubmin: I can't find a .compiz file I can See a .xcompmgrrc file though. Do you think that would be it?
[20:32] <cool> nopes
[20:32] <kowboz> defalt e-mail Ubuntu 7.10
[20:33] <agruman> The installation keeps krashing on me :( And i have a usb keyboard which wont work in the "setup screen". And i have no "Enable legacy usb keyboard support" in my bios. Anyone have any suggestion to what i might try?
[20:33] <DB42> pici: i did apt-get source ntp; ./configure; make
[20:33] <kowboz> 27.11.2007r.
[20:33] <DB42> and it gives me an error, sec
[20:33] <Niche25> For email client i use evolution (i have exhange email accounts)
[20:33] <cool> does OGG takes less space?
[20:33] <Pici> DB42: did you look to see what files were downloaded, or did you just do those commands?
[20:33] <Pici> DB42: Thats not how everything is compiled.
[20:33] <DB42> i get error in ./configure actually: config.status: error: cannot find input file: ElectricFence/Makefile.in
[20:33] <Ubmin> davubuntu: sorry. yeah, try mving that out of the way - if that doesn't work, try mving .gnome2/ out of the way
[20:34] <DB42> it d/led some patch files in apt-get source and it seemed to work
[20:34] <Ubmin> incorrect: okay, so everything works fine when you take out the splash line at bootup?
[20:34] <kowboz> draughats

[20:39] <Ximal> ahh thanks !
[20:39] <kael_> i am looking for someone that could help with a message in my system logs
[20:40] <Ubmin> kael_: need to know what the message is first
[20:40] <worthawholebean> Ugh, I acciddentally installed ATI drivers and now I'm stuck in console
[20:40] <Ximal> hmm...
[20:40] <ubuntu_ne> that's it: I tried to boot from cd and start install of 7.10 but no way it stopos with the progress bar stilli going up and down, no error nothing
[20:40] <worthawholebean> How can I reinstall them from here?
[20:40] <than_> hey
[20:40] <worthawholebean> What's the package name?
[20:40] <Ubmin> worthawholebean: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[20:40] <Jack_Sparrow> worthawholebean: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[20:40] <worthawholebean> thanks
[20:41] <than_> is everyone on here using ubunto?
[20:41] <Jack_Sparrow> yes
[20:41] <kael_> Ubmin, sure, this is it : API mismatch: the client has the version 169.04, but this kernel module has the version 100.14.19
[20:41] <Ubmin> than_: is everyone here using a computer? :)
[20:41] <ubuntu_ne> what can it be? RAM?
[20:41] <kael_> this came just after an nvidia driver update
[20:41] <Ximal> hey ubmin you have im's i can sedn te ya ?
[20:41] <Learning-Ubuntu> ubuntu_ne, WHen I used the DVD it took me quite a long time to get mines booted up. Not sure if it is the same problme you are having though. Eventually mines did boot
[20:41] <Ubmin> kael_: for what program?
[20:42] <kael_> Ubmin : this is about my nvidia driver, at launch
[20:42] <than_> i have a friend that used a cd and i used a dvd whats the difference
[20:42] <cramop> has anybody installed ubuntu asus eee pc? is it doable?
[20:42] <kowboz> 8 h Ubuntu 7.10
[20:42] <kowboz> instal
[20:43] <pike_> than_: basically the dvd has the old text instller too and some more packages available but if you have an internet connection and arent going to install manually you dont need it
[20:43] <ubuntu_ne> learning-ubuntu what did you do to get your dvds working?
[20:43] <kowboz> internet
[20:43] <Learning-Ubuntu> ubuntu_ne had some coffee if I recall correctly... it just eventually booted.
[20:44] <kowboz> ok
[20:44] <worthawholebean> Um, startx still doesn't work.
[20:44] <worthawholebean> It says no screens found.
[20:44] <Jack_Sparrow> worthawholebean: chose vesa.. it is failsafe
[20:44] <worthawholebean> (no devicees detected)
[20:45] <worthawholebean> Jack_Sparrow: thanks
[20:45] <Ubmin> kael_: check your restricted drivers and make sure that it's up-to-date - you may need to uninstall it, reboot, then reinstall it and reboot again
[20:45] <Jack_Sparrow> worthawholebean: it helps to know your monitor refresh info
[20:45] <ubuntu_ne> : ) learning-ubuntu it's too late to have coffe now in italy but i'll try thx :)
[20:46] <[pho]> has anyone sucessfully been able to use compiz-fusion with video playback on an intel 965GM chipset???

[20:46] <Ximal> I'm just trying to figure out what database name i should put in the forum install lign..
[20:47] <Ximal> would it be MySql ?
[20:47] <kowboz> Brasil
[20:47] <Learning-Ubuntu> ubuntu_ne, I know that isnt a good solution but its exactly what I did . If I recall correct it took 12 minutes to boot . Dont quote me on that though. This was on a pretty average system
[20:47] <Ximal> and what version of mysql or php does ubuntu use ?
[20:47] <kowboz> 8x8

[20:47] <zani_> hey all how can i put one of those animated boot screens on gutsy... like the one on linux mint.... is the grub that comes with gutsy compatible with gfxboot?
[20:47] <kael_> UIbmin : allready done this, uninstalled, reinstalled, used envy to uninstall my nvidia driver, installed the 169.04 drivers, all is now ok except this msg, 3D is ok too... i wonder why it still find these files, is there a way to uninstall restricted modules and be sure every file is deleted? even the nvidia ones?
[20:47] <[pho]> does anyone have a solution to the Xv problem when using the skip-check "hack" to enable compiz-fusion for the 965GM chipset?
[20:47] <bzwingzero> Does anybody know if there are any quake-style terminal emulators that work with compiz-fusion?
[20:47] <kowboz> www.warcaby.pl
[20:48] <Shadow147> nicolah just open the source file in either nano or gedit

[20:48] <ubuntu_ne> thank you Learning-Ubuntu, i rebbot now to retry, let you know later
[20:48] <Jack_Sparrow> kael_: envy is a terrible thing to do to your computer
[20:48] <Ubmin> Ximal: the database name for bb2 or the database itself?
[20:48] <ferronica> Ubmin: MP3 Mobile Ringtones.uif" cannot be opened
[20:48] <Learning-Ubuntu> ubuntu_ne, Good Luck :D
[20:48] <ferronica> Ubmin: No application suitable for automatic installation is available for handling this kind of file.

[20:48] <ibanez> how can i tell what is taking up my soundcard ?
[20:48] <Ximal> the one that says DB UserName ..
[20:48] <Ubmin> ferronica: not sure... got a copy of it somewhere that i could wget?
[20:48] <Jack_Sparrow> !sound
[20:48] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[20:49] <Ximal> that's what i need to put the proper thing / name into..
[20:49] <kael_> Jack_Sparrow, what do u mean?
[20:49] <jalompuhr> !iptables
[20:49] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[20:49] <ferronica> Ubmin: downloded from here http://www.mininova.org/tor/973239
[20:49] <Jack_Sparrow> kael_: It does terrible things.. Learn to it the right way and you will have way fewer problems and you get more help in here ..
[20:49] <Jack_Sparrow> !envy
[20:49] <ubotu> envy is not needed or supported. Use the Resticted Manager to install binary drivers and see « /msg ubotu binarydriver »
[20:50] <Ubmin> Ximal: ah ok, you need a username IN the database itself - so just make one up and set it up with mysqladmin or phpmyadmin
[20:50] <Jack_Sparrow> !automatix

[20:50] <Ximal> arf ?
[20:50] <bzwingzero> Does anybody know if there are any quake-style terminal emulators that work with compiz-fusion?
[20:50] <[pho]> has anyone sucessfully been able to use compiz-fusion with video playback on an intel 965GM chipset???
[20:50] <Ubmin> ferronica: i can't do torrent:(
[20:50] <kael_> Jack_Sparrow, yes i've heard bout this, allways instaled without this, but tried only once... too bad... how may i purge my system of all the things envy have done?
[20:50] <ferronica> Ubmin: any idea how to handle it in ubuntu ? :(
[20:51] <Jack_Sparrow> kael_: Insert install cd and boot up
[20:51] <Ximal> ubmin : is there a frontend for mysqladmin ?
[20:51] <Ximal> i dnno how to setup a new user/pwd :(
[20:51] <christoffer> lol
[20:51] <kael_> Jack_Sparrow, i'm using linux cause theres is often a solution different than this one...
[20:51] <Jack_Sparrow> kael_: Not meant as a joke.. it is not an easy fix/undo
[20:52] <christoffer> nono sorry i am connected now here i sayd lol becouse i have installed linux 10 min back
[20:52] <RoyK> hi! can someone help me sort out a sound driver issue with an ibm t20 thinkpad, please?
[20:52] <kael_> Jack_Sparrow, i didnt mean this could be easy... ;o)
[20:52] <Jack_Sparrow> kael_: Once you go outside the repos and do some of the things they do to get it to work, it messes up other things especially an upgrade
[20:52] <[pho]> one more time?
[20:52] <[pho]> has anyone sucessfully been able to use compiz-fusion with video playback on an intel 965GM chipset???
[20:52] <Ubmin> Ximal: then perhaps you need to brush up on your mysql admin skills first - check out phpmyadmin and also read in /usr/share/doc/mysql-common/
[20:52] <Jack_Sparrow> kael_: There is a reason we dont support or suggest it..
[20:52] <RoyK> the audio is either missing or so low that it's barely audible
[20:53] <kael_> Jack_Sparrow, yes and you are right ;o)
[20:53] <Jack_Sparrow> !sound
[20:53] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer).

[20:53] <Jack_Sparrow> kael_: I know it is temping to do it... and if it worked.. great.. but it does cause other issues
[20:54] <Seeeb> how can i see at what mhz my cpu is currently running ?
[20:54] <kael_> Jack_Sparrow, is it possible to delete all nvidia kernel modules?
[20:54] <soundray> I am planning to compile a 2.6.24 kernel for a gutsy system. If you've done it, I would be interested in your experiences.
[20:54] <soundray> Seeeb: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[20:54] <RoyK> Jack_Sparrow: I've tried a few things including presetting drivers and so on, but still it doesn't like me or whatever's wrong
[20:54] <Seeeb> thx
[20:54] <Jack_Sparrow> kael_: It goes deeper than just that.. sorry.. I cant be of any help
[20:54] <erUSUL> Seeeb: add the cpu freq applet toyour panel
[20:55] <Ubmin> kael_: did you not check restricted drivers yet?
[20:55] <MOX_NOX> Hi, somebody know how fix that?: alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device
[20:55] <kael_> Jack_Sparrow, too bad, i'll try to find a solution and will post it on a forum... any ideas or tips on what it does exactly?
[20:55] <[pho]> please does anyone know anything about how to get video playback when enabling compiz-fusion on a 965GM chipset
[20:55] <Seeeb> it says 1000 mhz. but i have a 1,83 cpu. how can i disable the dynamic switching ?
[20:55] <kael_> Jack_Sparrow, maybe i should edit the envy files to look at the scripts
[20:55] <Jack_Sparrow> kael_: read the link under automatix.. it tells more than you will want to know
[20:56] <Ubmin> MOX_NOX: apt-get install alsa-oss
[20:56] <NET||abuse> goddamn?? i just plugged in a HP L1502 monitor, to my laptop, which has intel 915GM chipset, i can't drag windows over to the other screen properly, what's gone wrong?
[20:56] <bzwingzero> Does anybody know if there are any quake-style terminal emulators that work with compiz-fusion?
[20:56] <soundray> Seeeb: please don't disable frequency scaling. It does it for a reason.
[20:56] <NET||abuse> I just used the screens and graphics control to configure it.
[20:56] <kael_> Jack_Sparrow, didnt understand, sorry me poor french ignorant... lol, what were u talking about plz?
[20:56] <[pho]> are my messages invisible?
[20:56] <[pho]> has anyone sucessfully been able to use compiz-fusion with video playback on an intel 965GM chipset???
[20:56] <Seeeb> well ok but how could i do it!?
[20:56] <Jack_Sparrow> !automatix
[20:56] <ubotu> automatix is not recommended, supported or needed. See http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77440.html and « /msg ubotu WorksForMe »
[20:56] <Ubmin> Jack_Sparrow: it would be preferable if you didn't act like that toward other users.
[20:56] <Seeeb> soundray:  :-)
[20:57] <Jack_Sparrow> Ubmin: Like what
[20:57] <soundray> Seeeb: just run a cpu-intensive process and it will scale up
[20:57] <[pho]> i guess not...
[20:57] <Ubmin> Jack_Sparrow: like that.
[20:57] <NET||abuse> [pho], i'm on 915GM and i have no trouble with most video, just not great playback under certain circumstances
[20:57] <Jack_Sparrow> Ubmin: Like what
[20:57] <Ubmin> kael_: just click on System->Administration->Restricted drivers
[20:57] <Jack_Sparrow> Ubmin: Provide an example ..
[20:57] <Seeeb> soundray: yes but there must be some way to set it higher or lower. since if i use my lappy on battery i dont want him to go over 800mhz or sth
[20:57]  * Ubmin kills a broken record
[20:58] <Ubmin> Jack_Sparrow: unnecessary.
[20:58] <kael_> Ubmin, yes allready done this
[20:58] <TuxOtaku> hey guys, I'm having some trouble with a wireless mouse
[20:58] <RazzoRz> was its it when i minimize things in innotek Vbox... its Slow like Lagging really bad... anyone seen this b4?
[20:58] <santor> !automatrix
[20:58] <ubotu> automatix is not recommended, supported or needed. See http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77440.html and « /msg ubotu WorksForMe »
[20:58] <Ubmin> kael_: ok, did you actually remove the nvidia driver?
[20:58] <TuxOtaku> lsusb shows that the receiver is there
[20:58] <kael_> Ubmin, yes but i installed the new one, with the original nvidia script installer
[20:59] <TuxOtaku> but the mous isn't being recognized
[20:59] <TuxOtaku> *mouse
[20:59] <soundray> Seeeb: if you install laptop-mode-tools, you can set the frequency governor for additional control over freq. scaling.
[20:59] <Ubmin> kael_: that's the problem - you never EVER need to use the original nvidia installer
[20:59] <Ubmin> Jack_Sparrow: this is why.
[20:59] <bzwingzero> Does anybody know if there are any quake-style terminal emulators that work with compiz-fusion?
[20:59] <Ubmin> kael_: do you still have the original installer script?
[20:59] <Seeeb> big thx soundray
[20:59] <Ximal> grrrrrr
[20:59] <Ximal> i'm so lost..
[20:59] <kael_> Ubmin, well.... there must be a solution, even if i must delete manually the files... lol
[21:00] <Ximal> looks like next week i know what i'll be doing on my days off
[21:00] <kael_> Ubmin, yes got the script
[21:00] <MOX_NOX> Ubmin: Thanks but it not work, another idea?
[21:00] <ChrisULM> fixed it!
[21:01] <Ubmin> kael_: okay, now run it with the --help argument
[21:01] <Ubmin> kael_: it should tell you how to uninstall it
[21:01] <kael_> Ubmin, allready done, not an information bout this...

[21:05] <bmod> hello
[21:05] <aref> Hi. I attached a second screen to my laptop. This resulted in all screen configs going down the drain. Now it cant even detect my default laptop screen right, and Im stuck with 640x480. Any tips on how to fix this?
[21:05] <kael_> Ubmin, what do you think about purge the restricted modules, and manually deleting  the files related to nvidia in /lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/kernel/drivers/video/nvidia ??
[21:05] <sahak> Does Gnome 2.20 use .gnome and .gnome_private folders anymore? or does it use .gnome2 and .gnome2_private instead?
[21:06] <RoyK> Jack_Sparrow: also, if playing stuff with xmms, which I can't hear, I'm unable to test audio with ubuntu sound control, because the device's busy
[21:06] <Optimus56> AWN refuses to start on login on gutsy 64bit, anyone have an idea why?
[21:06] <portablejim> What tools would I use to see if a network card works?
[21:06] <bmod> I have a nice xorg.conf that works for me (nvidia driver generated). How can I prevent (bulletproofx?) from changing it on the next boot?
[21:06] <RoyK> turning up the volume on the laptop inceases noise, but no audio is sent through

[21:08] <Jack_Sparrow> RoyK: Sorry but working on another problem
[21:08] <RoyK> Jack_Sparrow: yeah - I tried both alsa and oss and the plain driver
[21:08] <soundray> vis: actually, you can start in single user mode -- but then you get a root login only.
[21:09] <vis> soundray, thing is.. I have a nVidia GeForce 6600 GT, which prevents me from getting to the login-screen. The screen just turns black and the comp freezes..
[21:09] <ror> seriously though, it's gotta be an untapped niche; you only need to google "diet planner" or "exercise planner" to see there's a ton of crackpot/"shareware" (always with the likes of "pro" after the name) software out there which are basically just spreadsheets
[21:09] <vis> So I thought I could install lynx and download the nvidia-drivers from command
[21:09] <amilo_2> I've got 704 on fujitsu li amilo 1705 and i cannot get my soundcard work! it's vt82xx how can i set it up to work?
[21:09] <soundray> vis: boot in recovery mode and fix it with 'dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[21:10] <Ubmin> kael_: tried --uninstall?
[21:10] <NET||abuse> ok ,this is very annoying, it's like a slice of my workspace has vanished between screens, there's a good chunk of space on this window that is just cut out, i have this window strading the screen divide
[21:10] <bmod> can somebody tell me which little culprit overwrites my xorg.conf at boot time?
[21:10] <RoyK> sudo apt-get install windows-vista :P
[21:10] <vis> soundray, alright. I'll try
[21:10] <Ubmin> vis: wrong way to install nvidia drivers in ubuntu
[21:10] <ikonia> bmod: none
[21:10] <Jack_Sparrow> vis: I boot with F6 and noapic on my 6600
[21:10] <Ubmin> !nvidia | vis
[21:10] <ubotu> vis: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[21:10] <Ubmin> vis: lynx, however, can view that :)
[21:11] <Ubmin> vis: otherwise you wind up in the sort of mess that kael_'s in right now
[21:11] <vis> I can do this in recovery-mode?
[21:11] <Ubmin> sure
[21:11] <RoyK> I beleive I've tried most tricks in the books (as far as I've come through google), but audio is still dead except from feedback from mike to speaker
[21:11] <vis> alright
[21:11] <vis> :)
[21:11] <vis> I'll try
[21:11] <kael_> Ubmin, tried this yes
[21:11] <Ubmin> good luck
[21:11] <Ubmin> kael_: and the result was?
[21:12] <NET||abuse> anychance someone can help me fix this weird workspace/resolution missing gap on the screen junk with multiple monitors?
[21:12] <ikonia> NET||abuse: more info needed
[21:12] <bmod> ikonia: yesterday i set up my screens, but after just booting my computer, this configuration was gone
[21:12] <kael_> Ubmin, nothing, simply does not work... strange isnt it?
[21:12] <ikonia> bmod: how did you setup your screen
[21:12] <bmod> ikonia: nvidia drivers
[21:12] <ikonia> bmod: nvidia-settings ?
[21:12] <bmod> yep
[21:12] <ikonia> bmod: nvidia drivers is not how you set it up
[21:12] <Ubmin> kael_: are you sure? try rebooting...
[21:12] <ikonia> bmod: nvidia-settings does not always right to the config file
[21:13] <ikonia> write
[21:13] <soundray> vis: don't be scared by what Ubmin said. It's safe to try dpkg-reconfigure in recovery mode
[21:13] <bmod> ikonia: i noticed, but it gives me a 'preview' and i copied that onto xorg.conf
[21:13] <Jack_Sparrow> vis: agreed
[21:13] <ikonia> bmod: I don't recommend nvidia-settings
[21:13] <kael_> Ubmin, gonna try, back in a few seconds
[21:13] <ikonia> bmod: nvidia-settings only in my view has a place for real-time dynamic reconfiguration
[21:13] <Ubmin> soundray: i didn't say that he couldn't do that.
[21:14] <amilo_2> i cannot get my soundcard work! help! system: 7.04, fujitsu siemens amilo li 1705, soundcard vt82xx
[21:14] <NET||abuse> ikonia, well, i'm on a hp nx6110 laptop, it has intel 915GM chipset
[21:14] <ikonia> NET||abuse: ok
[21:14] <Ubmin> !sound | amilo_2
[21:14] <ubotu> amilo_2: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[21:14] <soundray> Ubmin: it could have come across as that, though, because your "wrong way to..." came directly after my recommendation.
[21:14] <bmod> ikonia: you recommend the new gtk-iforgotthename tool?
[21:14] <amilo_2> thx
[21:15] <ikonia> bmod no, I recommend using "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" and using a static configuration from that
[21:15] <NET||abuse> ikonia, and i plugged in a HP1502 15" lcd into the external VGA
[21:15] <ikonia> NET||abuse: sounds reasonable
[21:15] <jaybird7> The Dual Boot guide talks about using EasyBCD to get dual booting to work.. but it doesnt say what i should do with it? also how would i reverse this change if i mess everything up, will the recovery disks for Vista return whatever i do to this back to what it was default?  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot please and thank you
[21:15] <Ubmin> soundray: i suppose so, although if the user in question doesn't have a problem differentiating sources, then that would be an improbable assumption
[21:15] <ikonia> jaybird7: where does it say that ?
[21:15] <ikonia> jaybird7: what guide
[21:15] <ikonia> jaybird7: I've not seen a guide that says to not use the ubuntu install cd
[21:15] <NET||abuse> Ok, so i setup the conifg on Screens & Graphics under System->Admin, all looks correct there
[21:15] <bmod> ikonia, does that use the nvidia software or the opensource version?
[21:16] <ikonia> bmod: neither,
[21:16] <ikonia> NET||abuse: ok
[21:16] <soundray> I am planning to compile a 2.6.24 kernel for a gutsy system. If you've done it, I would be interested in your experiences.
[21:16] <ikonia> bmod: that tool will allow you to select what drivers you want. and configure your screen
[21:16] <jaybird7> ikonia : please check the link i showed under where it says boot record and boot manager
[21:16] <ikonia> jaybird7: I didn't see the link, it scrolled
[21:16] <NET||abuse> but, i can't drag windows all the way onto that screen, it won't let any window leave the primary screen, it does flow over to the other screen to my right, the resolution is correct, however, there is a few pixel (maybe 100 or so) missing section of the windows like the workspace isn't nitted together properly across both screens
[21:17] <jalompuhr> !jdgsba
[21:17] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about jdgsba - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[21:17] <jaybird7> ikonia : oh okay its https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot
[21:17]  * Ubmin has compiled thousands of kernels, but not 2.6.24, and i'm not a developer for ubuntu, so i have no reason to
[21:17] <bmod> ikonia, i don't have xserver.xorg? (maybe because i removed the Screen & Graphics thing)
[21:17] <UndertakerX2> where is the firefox profile folder on ubuntu?
[21:17] <ikonia> bmod no, re-read what I typed "xserver-xorg
[21:17] <ikonia> "
[21:17] <EtteSB> in your home folder
[21:17] <jarz> For some strange reason, my USB-disks stopped automounting. Propably a HAL problem and restarting it does not work. What should I try?
[21:17]  * soundray has hardware that is poorly supported by the gutsy kernel
[21:17] <NET||abuse> nitted?? knitted i must have meants
[21:17] <CoasterMaster> Undertaker ~/.mozilla/firefox
[21:17] <Ubmin> bmod: it's xserver-xorg
[21:17] <UndertakerX2> ok thanks guys :)
[21:18] <ikonia> NET||abuse: are you using xineama configured throught he gnome desktop tools
[21:18] <bmod> ikonia, Ubmin, sorry my bad
[21:18] <soundray> jarz: first, make sure that the appropriate boxes are still checked in System-Preferences-Removable Drives
[21:18] <bmod> ikonia, what's the difference between nv and nvidia?
[21:18] <EtteSB> Whats the easiest way to set a drive to auto mount on Boot? (im not realy wanting to edit fstab but can do if there is no other way)
[21:18] <jarz> soundray: they are in place
[21:19] <ikonia> bmod: nv is the open source driver, nvidia is the nvidia released one
[21:19] <bmod> ikonia: so nvidia would be the one i installed?
[21:19] <ikonia> bmod: yes
[21:19] <jalompuhr> !root
[21:19] <ubotu> Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[21:19] <soundray> jarz: then see if any unusual messages appear are logged (tail -f /var/log/syslog -- then plug in the drive)
[21:20] <soundray> s/appear//
[21:20] <vis> wow... "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" was advanced stuff
[21:20] <soundray> vis: did it help?
[21:20] <Jack_Sparrow> vis: write that one down in case you need it again
[21:21] <jarz> soundray: okay. apparently rechecking the options did the trick. any idea what might have caused this?
[21:21] <EtteSB> Whats the easiest way to set a drive to auto mount on Boot? (im not realy wanting to edit fstab but can do if there is no other way)
[21:21] <nadio> How do I disable HD cache with hdparm?
[21:21] <soundray> vis: for most options, you can accept the defaults... I should have said
[21:21] <vis> heh
[21:21] <soundray> jarz: no idea, but glad it helped ;)
[21:21] <erUSUL> EtteSB: go ahead edit fstab. Is the safer way
[21:21] <supercarolus> My soundcard stopt just like that. Need some help
[21:21] <EtteSB> erUSUL: ok thanks
[21:21] <jaybird7> ikonia : i found some links to other guides that will hopefully help
[21:21] <askand> Half my processor seems gone..its a 1,86 ghz but only shows 800mhz?! what could have happened?

[21:22] <askand> ikonia: soundray:  ohhh smart...silly me :)
[21:22] <soundray> askand: run a CPU-intensive task, and it'll go up.
[21:22] <NET||abuse> ikonia, yes, used gutsy gnome desktop config under system->admin->screens&graphics
[21:23] <NET||abuse> ikonia, is it still not working right?
[21:23] <bmod> ikonia, could you please tell my why using the nvidia tool would be a bad choise?
[21:23] <ikonia> bmod I've JUST told you about 30 seconds ago
[21:23] <ikonia> bmod: it doesn't always right to the config

[21:25] <soundray> jalompuhr: do you need help?
[21:25] <ikonia> NET||abuse: I don't trust the gnome tools to configure xineama currently
[21:25] <bmod> ikonia, not always right as in syntax errors? (i'd be a happy man if  i could get my head around this)
[21:25] <ikonia> bmod: where did I say that ?
[21:26] <ikonia> bmod: I said "the tool doesn't always write to the config file"
[21:26] <ikonia> bmod: what part am I not saying clear ?
[21:26] <NET||abuse> ikonia, just changing drivers.. brb
[21:26] <Vandalite> i try to run the server manually, and it shuts down instantly, my only clue is the one error it spouts:

[21:28] <soundray> vis: hey, you've only tried for, like, half an hour :)
[21:28] <bmod> ikonia ok i get that, but i did put the config in the xorg.conf by hand and that shouldn't change after that, right?
[21:28] <vis> soundray, true.  I've tried setting to vesa manually
[21:29] <vis> didn't work either
[21:29] <RichiH> college: probably not
[21:29] <PriceChild> college, no. and stop repeating yourself.
[21:29] <Jack_Sparrow> college: please stop..
[21:29] <ikonia> bmod: then you didn't save it. Plus I don't trust the tool, I think its fine for dynamic use only

[21:31] <shenron> how do I tell if this laptop has bluetooth? Its an Acer Aspire 5520 and the Acer site says I have bluetooth, but the circuitcity site (where I bought it) says no. Neither say it was optional. Also, there is a bluetooth button on the keyboard (that doens't work) that the manual says is for bluetooth
[21:32] <Jack_Sparrow> !bluetooth
[21:32] <ubotu> For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup
[21:32] <askand> soundray: isnt it supposed to go up when I plugin the adapter?
[21:32] <arghh2d2> ettesb you might need to reboot
[21:32] <shenron> setting up bluetooth isn't a problem -_- I have a usb bluetooth thing, and that works fine
[21:32] <bmod> ikonia, i wrote the file to a xorg.conf.nvidia and then copied the file onto xorg.conf, restarted gdm -> worked, but after a clean boot i get a failsafe configuration
[21:32] <EtteSB> arghh2d2: i did
[21:32] <jalompuhr> shenron: open your laptop with a screwdriver
[21:32] <soundray> askand: you mean AC power?
[21:32] <bmod> ikonia, but i'm going to double check that now
[21:32] <shenron> I like that idea jalompuhr but it'd void warrenty :p
[21:32] <izmaelis> hello, I want to install xubuntu on ver very slow and old machine, but I don't have enoguh time to mess arround with GUI and want to do it old-fashioned debian installer way from console. How to do that?
[21:33] <bmod> ikonia, thanks so far
[21:33] <incorrect> wow xfs is a bit screwy
[21:33] <pike_> riaal: grep motd /etc/init.d/* will tell you name of the script wrinting motd look at that script and it is pointing to /var/run/motd which is the file overwriting /etc/motd on each boot

[21:33] <incorrect> my 250+gb partition went a bit odd
[21:33] <MystaMax> shenron, you can look in the bios and see if its possible to disable and enable your bluetooth. and opening your laptop will not void your warranty
[21:33] <askand> soundray yeah to the laptop
[21:33] <Shadow147> is there a way to make a .deb from source
[21:33] <incorrect> i use ubuntu 7.10 with a 8800gts
[21:33] <incorrect> doesn't detect my screen too well
[21:33] <Jack_Sparrow> vis: yes... on this machine atm I have feisty and 6600.. home has 6600 and gutsy
[21:33] <shenron> actually mystamax, thats a great idea
[21:34] <riaal> pike_: that would mean chaning /var/run/motd would fixe the problem?

[21:35] <Jack_Sparrow> vis: ok, care to try something
[21:35] <bmod> shenron: are you reinstalling the nvidia drivers?
[21:35] <askand> soundray: good :)
