[12:26] <bastid_raZor> !grub > Illusion_Master
[12:26] <brobostigon> youngmusic: its not elegant, but for alot of people it works, try it, if it doesnt work,try something else.
[12:27] <brobostigon> !compile | goodhabit
[12:27] <ubotu> goodhabit: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first)
[12:28] <noosphere>  Is it possible to configure X in dual head (card is nvidia), both heads cloned, each hed running in a different mode (ie different resolution) yet the lower res head is just s scaled version of the higer res head (i.e. no panning)?
[12:28] <_Ergo_> hello
[12:29] <_Ergo_> i need to instal a system on a 433mhz celeron pc with 128 mb ram - will xubuntu work reasonable on that specs ?
[12:30] <Pici> !requirements-#xubuntu | _Ergo_ yes, I believe so
[12:30] <ubotu> _Ergo_ yes, I believe so: Hardware requirements to install, boot and comfortably use Xubuntu are listed at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingXubuntu
[12:30] <brobostigon> _Ergo_: it should, to make install even faster use the alternate install cd.
[12:30] <_Ergo_> thanks guys
[12:30] <bastid_raZor> noosphere; sure.. first run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg to set the first monitor up.. once done with that run nvidia-settings to set up the 2nd
[12:30] <Alloosh> hi, I got the desktop effects installed, how do I see the cube thing?
[12:31] <bentob0x> in firestarter, how do you enter an ip range for a new inbound rule for instance?
[12:31] <blindway> buenas
[12:31] <bentob0x> I'd like to have <IP_ADDRESS>-<IP_ADDRESS>
[12:32] <_Ergo_> wanted to make my company to switch to linux systems instead of windows ( they need to run dos programs ) but failed miserably
[12:32] <noosphere> bastid_raZor, thanks will have a go
[12:32] <bentob0x> _Ergo_: you can use VirtualBox to run a virtualisation of windows within your machine
[12:33] <bentob0x> alternatively you also can use wine
[12:33] <_Ergo_> bentob0x : - they would probably be very well without windows at all - they only need some dos accounting/warehouse software , but they apaprently have too much money :D
[12:34] <_Ergo_> im sure that dos with networking can be emulated quite well
[12:34] <Javid> could try vmware
[12:34] <_Ergo_> Javid : i use vmware on my PC to run debian for webdevelopement testing :]
[12:35] <Javid> I use it on mine because it amuses me to run a computer inside my computer.
[12:35] <Illusion_Master> is there some sort of system restore to go back like in windows in ubuntu?
[12:36] <_Ergo_> hehe, i cant drop windows, no alternatives for graphics software and wine fails on polish fonts in photoshop and corel :]
[12:36] <sarthor> Hi. i am instlalling 7.04, LAMP and Alternat on the AMD computer, Every time its stop 85 % in select install software catagary. what  to do?? any idea?
[12:36] <punzada> Once vmware will allow direct hardware access it will be beyond amazing.
[12:36] <_Ergo_> punzada : i would imagine that is dangerous ?
[12:37] <punzada> that's what the developers are trying to work around :)
[12:37] <punzada> lol
[12:37] <wilhart> is there a webcam program like skype2
[12:37] <wilhart> i need to try my webcam
[12:37] <wilhart> any software for it to show?
[12:37] <brobostigon> wilhart: amsn
[12:38] <wilhart> brobostigon: ok
[12:38] <punzada> but once it's all settled, the thoughts of windows gaming almost natively on nix-based operating systems through virtualization is a fantastic thought
[12:38] <barry_> hey how come only my music players can play sound firefox and my games have no sound
[12:38] <agentbleubleu> hi
[12:39] <Gnine> !sound
[12:39] <arrg> hey guys , i need help
[12:39] <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).

[12:40] <napster^> I have xitrix mini-frame(originally installed with ubuntu) computers and, Some in bios hard disk can be detected, while others can't. Now, when hard disk can be detected WinXP can be installed, if not Windows cannot continue.
[12:41] <obsidianart2> anyone knows about CCMQS fglx problem while dri loading on kernel?
[12:41] <_Ergo_> you need to have a license anyway, so why not install windows when you have it - for gaming for example?
[12:41] <arrg> explozion , could you help ?
[12:41] <obsidianart2> fglrx*
[12:41] <barry_> napster my windows xp wont dual boot cause it cant detect a hd
[12:41] <agentbleubleu> it seems very noisy in here
[12:41] <punzada> _Ergo_,  ... so you don't have to reboot your system?
[12:41] <barry_> i  have the same problem but i need to get my sound fixed
[12:41] <arrg> Jack_Sparrow ?
[12:41] <agentbleubleu> anyone feel like helping a noob with a few lamp issues
[12:41] <xplozion> arrg: according to that error if im not mistaken, theres something in the source.list line #60 that is not a valid repository line
[12:41] <_Ergo_> punzada : - thats not an issue for me, and i doubt that ppl will game on servers for example ;-)
[12:41] <Jack_Sparrow> arrg: Yes, good morning
[12:41] <_Ergo_> i would play natively on linux tho
[12:42] <nomasteryoda> punzada, not with Linux
[12:42] <jrib> agentbleubleu: best to just state the problem
[12:42] <xplozion> arrg: what does the line of your source.list has?
[12:42] <arrg> explozion , so
[12:42] <arrg> how would i know ?
[12:42] <arrg> am knew to this thing
[12:42] <wilhart> is there a group to be added for webcams?

[12:43] <Jack_Sparrow> xplozion: Please use gksudo gedit....
[12:43] <agentbleubleu> i have set up the first domain on my linode
[12:43] <agentbleubleu> that works

[12:43] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[12:43] <agentbleubleu> now i want to add more domains
[12:43] <punzada> _Ergo_, nix is hardly a server-only platform in this day and age :)
[12:43] <arrg> hmm, is opened somthing called source.list
[12:43] <arrg> and its blank
[12:43] <punzada> granted, some distros are lol
[12:43] <agentbleubleu> but i am a little (totally) unsure how
[12:43] <mwe> sources.list
[12:43] <arrg> it*
[12:43] <xplozion> arrg, empty? you sure you opened /etc/apt/source.list ?
[12:44] <agentbleubleu> i have tried a few times
[12:44] <kantor> hi, can somebody tell me a CD/DVD quality check program ? (I searched the internet but with no results )
[12:44] <arrg> yes i did
[12:44] <mwe> source.list will create a new empty file
[12:44] <mwe> sources.list!
[12:44] <xplozion> arrg, its source not sources
[12:44] <arrg> this window opened called source.list
[12:44] <indomiti> rofl
[12:44] <_Ergo_> punzada: , sure , but its hardly a revolution when you woulkd have to buy windows to play on linux , even if performance would be decent
[12:44] <arrg> hmm
[12:44] <agentbleubleu> this is the file i was using as an example
[12:44] <xplozion> arrg, errr

[12:45] <xplozion> arrg, Yes, whats on the line #60
[12:45] <punzada> I don't know, seems like a nice step in bringing over both a new demographic and even though I barely game anymore ... I'm a big proponent of being able to totally utilize multiple operating systems for whatever purpose.
[12:45] <yogurt> also, I dont seem to be able to get transparent windows working at all, can someone point me to the right plugin/whatever is neede? thanks
[12:46] <Jack_Sparrow> yogurt: #Compiz has great help for all effects and ccsm..
[12:46] <wilhart> sigh, is there any url for quickcam express for ubuntu?
[12:46] <bazhang> yogurt: do you know there is a channel dedicated to that alone?
[12:46] <yogurt> oh, ok, thank you
[12:46] <yogurt> no, I didnt
[12:46] <agentbleubleu> can someone point me in the right direction, i need a good clear online resource that tells me how to set up more VH on my linode
[12:46] <notyeta> hey
[12:46] <_Ergo_> punzada : , i would say that the best solution would be allowin software to run and compile on various systems fairly easly - that would be revolution
[12:46] <arrg> :(
[12:46] <jrib> agentbleubleu: from the pieces I got, try #apache if no one here knows how
[12:46] <arrg> i don't see any #
[12:46] <notyeta> setup what?
[12:46] <agentbleubleu> thanks
[12:46] <punzada> _Ergo_,  at this point in time that would also be daydreaming :)

[12:47] <xplozion> arrg, scroll downa abit a you will see how sources.list should look with extra repos ;)
[12:47] <Jack_Sparrow> punzada:  _Ergo_   This is drifting offtopic.... Would you mind moving that conversation over there.

[12:51] <arrg> What should i paste in there ?
[12:51] <Jack_Sparrow> arrg: your sources.list
[12:51] <erikan1> hi. I accidentially wiped my /etc/postgres folder
[12:52] <erikan1> can someone help me finding out what I need to install to get it back?
[12:52] <arrg> i should copy my source list and paste in there ?
[12:52] <Gnine> negative.. do not paste all that here.. use pastebin
[12:52] <erikan1> something like: wajig whichpkg /etc/postgresql/8.2/main/postgresql.conf
[12:52] <Gnine> !pastebin
[12:52] <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)
[12:52] <KlarkC> #ubuntubrasil-orkut
[12:53] <Jack_Sparrow> Gnine: I already gave him that link and he was talking about pasteing to the pastebin..
[12:53] <Gnine> that wasnt what he typed
[12:53] <Jack_Sparrow> Gnine: Read carefully
[12:53] <arrg> Explozion , Jack_Sparrow , and what will happen when i do that ?
[12:53] <bazhang> its all good :}
[12:54] <Jack_Sparrow> arrg: It will give you a link number so we can go look at it and see what is wrong
[12:54] <arrg> oh ok
[12:54] <arrg> should i choose syntax ?? or anything ?
[12:54] <Jack_Sparrow> arrg: It is a very handy tool
[12:55] <Jack_Sparrow> arrg: No syntax, just a name and paste away
[12:55] <mwe> Jack_Sparrow: just out of curiousity, do you know what kind of problems it was causing?
[12:55] <arrg> thanks
[12:55] <arrg> the link is http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53300/

[12:57] <arrg> k
[12:57] <bazhang> sudo tee -a? that would seem to be it
[12:57] <Jack_Sparrow> arrg: Somone messed up and typed in the wrong window.. or so it seems
[12:58] <Jack_Sparrow> arrg: Gotta love the easy ones in the am
[12:58] <pajamian> hey, I think I just figured out which package is causing my problems ...
[12:58] <Jack_Sparrow> pajamian: Morning,  which one
[12:59] <pajamian> I just re-installed ubuntu and then ran all the updates except the compiz ones and gnome-screensaver
[12:59] <arrg> ok now its working
[12:59] <pajamian> I'm running gnome-screensaver now
[12:59] <pajamian> and I think it's compiz
[12:59] <arrg> thanks
[12:59] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[12:59] <xplozion> i wonder what was on that line, btw back
[12:59] <pajamian> so I'm wondering what can I do now, can I tell it not to update compiz until the *next* release?  or even to not update compiz at all?
[13:00] <boubbin> i have 20 users logged in to my computer, how to get the ip of user6 ?
[13:00] <arrg> Jack_sparrow, what will happan if i copy your sources.list and replace mine with urs ?
[13:00] <Jack_Sparrow> pajamian: Glad you got it narrowed down.  I suggest a backup at this point.. one command in a cli will do it..
[13:00] <Pici> boubbin: w
[13:00] <Pici> boubbin: or who
[13:01] <Jack_Sparrow> arrg: You could have an issue with country or closest archive.. but it should work

[13:01] <boubbin> Pici it only show me truncated output, like first 20 characters

[13:03] <pajamian> ok, that's a good one, what's the p?
[13:03] <pajamian> I know the rest of them, heh
[13:03] <tomasso> thanks Pici
[13:03] <Jack_Sparrow> pajamian: Always remember to exclude the backup from the backup to avoid endless loop situation
[13:03] <arrg> would it still work if i used ur sources.list ?
[13:03] <xplozion> arrg, Yes
[13:03] <pajamian> Jack_Sparrow: yep, thx

[13:05] <pajamian> I'm thinking at this point, though it may not be prudent to backup, because the amount of time it takes to re-install would probably be less than backup/restore time.
[13:05] <bazhang> not here bebyhot
[13:05] <`LePGeL[BoY]> ubuto: do you love me?
[13:05] <pajamian> rather wait until I'm done.

[13:38] <xal2> Hello
[13:38] <xal2> I updated my ubuntu install yesterday and now nautilus isn't loading
[13:39] <Rimers> Hi all, Anyone her that can give me a clue as to what filesystem would be best for a 500gb disk that will be used for storage / media streaming, will need performance and reliabilty
[13:39] <ilikebuntu000> Jack, yes
[13:39] <brobostigon> xal2: does nautilus show errors when you try to run it from terminal??
[13:39] <nero_> Is there any1 that can with a lexmark x4550 printer on ubuntu
[13:39] <ilikebuntu000> Jack > im trying to get XaraXtreme up and going on that config
[13:39] <xal2> Rimers, many people use NTFS (I'm not sure if you need compatibility with Windows though, otherwise ext3 should be fine
[13:39] <nero_> Is there any1 that can help with a lexmark x4550 printer on ubuntu
[13:40] <xal2> I'll try it now
[13:40] <xal2> It says, "Initializing gnome-mount extension
[13:40] <ilikebuntu000> Jack > it can supposedly use things crucial to the print industry
[13:40] <Rimers> xal2: i need no windows comp. as its a pure ubuntu system
[13:40] <xal2> ext3 should be just fine, then
[13:40] <nero_> Is there any1 that can help with a lexmark x4550 printer on ubuntu
[13:40] <IdleOne> !print
[13:40] <ubotu> Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows
[13:41] <ilikebuntu000> Jack > what is the possibility that the pak in the repos is broke? that i have to compile it in by src?
[13:41] <Rimers> xal2 okay, i was thinking jfs, but i was just guessing blindly, would that be better or worse?
[13:41] <xal2> brobostigon, it just says its initializing gnome-mount, but nothing happens after that
[13:41] <brobostigon> xal2: does it give the prompt back, or just sticks there??
[13:42] <xal2> It just sticks there
[13:42] <xal2> Rimers: http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/388
[13:42] <xal2> Check that out and see where you need most performance.
[13:42] <brobostigon> xal2: so it shows no errors
[13:43] <Rimers> thanks xal2
[13:43] <xal2> no problem
[13:43] <xal2> brobostigon, correct
[13:43] <xal2> But nothing starts up.
[13:43] <xal2> I don't see nautilus come up
[13:43] <brobostigon> xal2: no idea, then,as it showing nothing to help, sorry.
[13:44] <xal2> Hmm

[13:47] <ubotu> miro (source: miro): GTK+ based RSS video aggregator. In component universe, is optional. Version <IP_ADDRESS>-0ubuntu5 (gutsy), package size 555 kB, installed size 3012 kB
[13:47] <bod_> mewt, my bad thought it said micro,.,. sorrry
[13:48] <bazhang> bod_: for dl'ing youtube google video
[13:48] <mewt> Ok, I downloaded miro from the official ubuntu repos and I had some problems with java, so i downloaded a later version from a third party repo
[13:48] <mewt> which works fine
[13:48] <punkshui> how does one boot from a fat32 partition on a ubuntu only machine?
[13:48] <bod_> bazhang, dl'ing (deleting?)
[13:48] <mewt> my problem is that the first version(the ubuntu repo one) had the ability to search veohtv, along with youtube

[13:49] <pawan> hi
[13:50] <Slart> punkshui: isn't there some kind of bios boot-selector?
[13:50] <mewt> nope, using this repo (deb http://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/pculture.org/miro/linux/repositories/ubuntu gutsy/) from this thread (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=588617&page=2&highlight=miro+crashes)
[13:50] <punkshui> Slart: yes but it doesn't offer me to select different partitions as far as i know
[13:50] <mewt> i think it's just an rss feed or something i need to add somewhere, but no idea were and which
[13:50] <Slart> punkshui: ah.. true.. well I guess it's messing with grub then
[13:51] <punkshui> Slart: yeah, thought that might be the case
[13:52] <Slart> punkshui: you can either do it "live".. by using the grub console.. or you can change your grub configuration .. /boot/grub/menu.lst
[13:52] <bod_> hi guys,. how do i end non responsive programs?
[13:52] <Slart> bod_: kill -9 pid, or xkill and click it.. or killall programname
[13:52] <punkshui> Slart: yeah I was working on editing the menu.lst... but i noticed a kernel line that i didnt know how to fill out
[13:53] <Slart> punkshui: which one?
[13:53] <punkshui> bod_ also check out force quit applet in panel apps
[13:53] <bod_> Slart, the only problem is,. the program DOESN'T show up in ps or top
[13:53] <punkshui> Slart: kernel		/boot/memtest86+.bin
[13:53] <bod_> punkshui, k,. il look into it cheers

[13:53] <Slart> bod_: if it doesn't show up there I don't think it's running
[13:54] <bod_> Slart, but theres still a window in the middle of my screen
[13:54] <bazhang> mewt: not really; I am using the repo one
[13:54] <Slart> punkshui: that's the memtest boot option.. leave it
[13:54] <mewt> so you have veohtv in the search channels at the bottom then ?
[13:55] <Slart> bod_: then you're not looking for the right process.. what program died?
[13:55] <punkshui> Slart: yes. i was using the other entries as an example for the new entry. i dont know how to fill that line out for my new entry
[13:55] <snoop> hi all i search a software open source can deploy package with a profile, one name or idea?
[13:55] <bod_> Slart, wine,. while installing Dawn of War
[13:55] <Slart> punkshui: you don't have a kernel.. you'll need something like what's used for booting windows I suppose
[13:55] <eko_hermiyanto> any idea please?
[13:55] <bod_> eko_hermiyanto, i would say mpg but its a windows format me thinks
[13:55] <Slart> bod_: ok.. look for wineserver or the name of the installer... try wineserver -k first
[13:56] <Slart> punkshui: hang on.. I'll pastebin my grub conf.. it includes two windows boot parts
[13:56] <bazhang> mewt: yup
[13:57] <bod_> Slart, killall wineserver = wineserver: no process killed
[13:57] <Slart> bod_: run "wineserver -k"
[13:57] <bod_> Slart, wineserver -k gives no output
[13:57] <bod_> Slart, and no deaths
[13:57] <wilhart> how do i enable mp3 preview in nautilus?
[13:57] <Slart> bod_: ok.. run "sudo xkill" and then click on the window you want to kill
[13:57] <punkshui> bod_ right click top panel add to panel... force quit application ... click it and close the unruly window
[13:58] <wilhart> plays song when placing cursor on it
[13:58] <Slart> punkshui: here's mine http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53308/
[13:59] <bod_> punkshui, there is no app called force quit
[13:59] <Slart> bod_: you can add the applet.. it's nice.. I use it a lot.. basically the same as running xkill
[13:59] <Slart> bod_: rightclick a panel, chose add to panel.. find force quit..
[14:00] <punkshui> bod_ its the third from the left at the very top of the list it looks like a broken window
[14:00] <bod_> Slart, ahhhh!!!! problem,.,. i think i clicked on the wine program on the taskbar now i have lost both the bars,.,. but on the plus side wine is dead
[14:00] <wilhart> i did apt-get nautilus*, works now

[14:03] <N_u_n_y_a> I just installed openssh and I have told my router to forward port 22 to my <IP_ADDRESS> ip but its not allowing anything to connect
[14:03] <stefano|work> oh monodevelop.org it just says a command for checking in, and something like "you know what to do. module 'monodevelop'. whcch i don't understand
[14:04] <Slart> stefano|work: well.. follow the instructions again.. from the top.. when you bump into something that gives you errors or doesn't produce the result you expected you come back here.. tell us what you've done and what happened and we might be able to help you
[14:04] <N_u_n_y_a> oh and I added the iptable to allow port 22

[14:09] <wilhart> Slart: dunno how.. well nevermind.. dont need skype
[14:09] <Slart> bod_: the panels too, I hope?
[14:09] <N_u_n_y_a> bkar its saying no route to host
[14:10] <SleepingSloth> Slart, err... not entirely sure.
[14:10] <SleepingSloth> Slart, it would have taken a while to pin it down, i was lazy
[14:10] <bod_> Slart, i have a new problem,.,. (panels r bak,. cheers (and got the force quit)) i have no sound,. i think this happens when i reboot without ending an application that is using the sound,. but i can get the sound bak without doing a complete power off
[14:10] <Slart> SleepingSloth: hehe.. I'll have to give yours a try tonight..thanks for sharing
[14:10] <bod_> Slart, can=cant
[14:11] <SleepingSloth> no worries Slart
[14:11] <Slart> bod_: hmm.. sounds odd.. you shouldn't have to do a cold boot just to get sound back.. what kind of soundcard?
[14:11] <bkar> N_u_n_y_a-> then your route table may not be right, pastebin your route -n  and ifconfig
[14:11] <bod_> Slart,  lspci = Creative Labs SB Audigy LS
[14:12] <Slart> bod_: sounds normal enough for it to work under ubuntu
[14:12] <bkar> sathe-> all process have entries in /proc  so dig around your  /proc/pidofprocess
[14:12] <bod_> Slart, it works like a charm,. until i do ctrl+alt+backspace without closing amarok
[14:13] <Slart> bod_: ah.. but ctrl+alt+backspace only restarts X.. it doesn't restart the alsa-system
[14:13] <stefano|work> how can i check which version of a package i have installed? (in the terminal)
[14:14] <Slart> stefano|work: you can check what version is in the repos with apt-cache search insertpackagenamehere
[14:14] <bod_> Slart, yer,. how do i reastart the alsa system without power-off?
[14:14] <jvanrooyen> Hi all, what file would show what gdm theme is default?
[14:14] <phoenix> Slart: dpkg -l | grep gnome
[14:14] <phoenix> lists all gnome stuff...
[14:14] <N_u_n_y_a> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53310/
[14:14] <rajasun> stefano|work: dpkg-query -W packagename
[14:14] <N_u_n_y_a> there you go
[14:14] <phoenix> jvanrooyen: the gdm.conf?
[14:14] <Slart> bod_: I'm not really sure...
[14:15] <bkar> !who | N_u_n_y_a
[14:15] <ubotu> N_u_n_y_a: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :)
[14:15] <jvanrooyen> phoenix: thanks would ahve a look now
[14:15] <Slart> ah, stefano|work, did you read that? dpkg -l | grep packagename .. thanks phoenix
[14:15] <bod_> N_u_n_y_a, ur ethernet looks fine,. its recieving and sending packets
[14:15] <stefano|work> so, the configure script says i have to have installed at leart mono 1.1.10 and it fails, but i actually have version 1.2.something
[14:15] <stefano|work> yes thanks
[14:15] <hagabaka> !tab
[14:15] <ubotu> You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line.
[14:16] <rajasun> stefano|work: other than that you can also install apt-show-versions i.e. sudo apt-show-versions, then type apt-show-version packagename
[14:16] <bod_> does anyone know how to restart alsa without turning off my machine?
[14:16] <bkar> N_u_n_y_a->  try it with you ip,   ssh  <IP_ADDRESS>
[14:16] <N_u_n_y_a> okay
[14:17] <N_u_n_y_a> bkar it worked
[14:17] <bkar> N_u_n_y_a-> okay
[14:17] <bod_> bkar, is there a list of all ubotu's commands,. if so where can i find it?
[14:17] <phoenix> jvanrooyen:  grep  GraphicalTheme= /etc/gdm/gdm.conf
[14:17] <phoenix> GraphicalTheme=Human
[14:17] <bazhang> !list
[14:17] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[14:18] <Boglizk> I opened a port in the router, but nmap shows the port as closed..
[14:18] <N_u_n_y_a> so bkar its the <IP_ADDRESS> ip not the 1.3
[14:18] <bod_> bazhang, lol,.,. cheers dude
[14:18] <bkar> bod_-> on a term press tab twice, enjoy th e thousand commands you will learn
[14:18] <phoenix> bod_: /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
[14:18] <phoenix> might work...
[14:18] <bkar> N_u_n_y_a-> i know, thats why I asked you to paste ifconfig and route -n
[14:19] <bod_> phoenix, bkar, cheers guys
[14:19] <jvanrooyen> phoenix: If I add a theme on ubuntu, some file gets edited and would show the Default theme set? Do you know what file that is?
[14:19] <N_u_n_y_a> ahhh
[14:19] <phoenix> bod_: well, there are probably very few ubnutu commands, most of it are generic, which you'll find on my linuxes....
[14:19] <N_u_n_y_a> bkar so now I just need to forward that portr on that ip
[14:19] <phoenix> but I fear there is no such index, for any of both, as it is hightly systemdependant
[14:19] <bkar> N_u_n_y_a-> yeah, allow it through your firewall and NAT
[14:20] <phoenix> bkar: it lists only the commands available in the PATH...
[14:20] <bod_> phoenix, is there a way of testing sound through the terminal,. like making it beep or something?
[14:20] <jvanrooyen> phoenix: ooops the GDM login screen
[14:20] <bkar> phoenix-> i know, but thousands he has to overcome first
[14:20] <N_u_n_y_a> Bkar perfect ty so much
[14:20] <N_u_n_y_a> its working with putty now
[14:21] <simion314> i just want to share files betwen 2 ubuntu systems, why is this not build into Ubuntu? i must install and mount those folders,and maybe it will not work, :-(
[14:21] <phoenix> jvanrooyen: you might just use the login configurator to add and select the theme you want for default...
[14:21] <bod_> bkar, 2022 commands!!!!!!!!!!!!
[14:21] <ubud> I have WinXP and Ubuntu on same machine, wonder why WInXP Sound very loud but Ubuntu sound very solf
[14:22] <makasd0> how to enable ssh-server in ubuntu?
[14:22] <bod_> bkar, lol,.,. my terminal just listed 2022 commands ,.,. thats so funny,. i have no idea wot half of them do ,. and im not gonna spend the next year reading all there man pages ,. cheers
[14:22] <phoenix> bod_: hmmm "apt-cache show mp3blaster", but it's a little bit overkill, there are for shure other ways... but this one is the one I use :)
[14:22] <un0p> !openssh-server
[14:22] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about openssh-server - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi

[14:23] <jvanrooyen> phoenix: I know how to do that...but I need the file that would be set to let ubuntu know what my default gdm login is?
[14:23] <bod_> phoenix, cheers,. i was just wondering,. i can always just use amarok,. thanks
[14:23] <makasd0> I can't get my apt-get to work :C
[14:23] <phoenix> simion314: afaik it is built in - you might right click (in nautilus) on any folder and choose to share it....
[14:23] <un0p> makasd0, why, what's happened?
[14:23] <Flice> I'm trying to transcode from flac to ogg on Ubuntu using ffmpeg, and it doesn't catch the target bitrate I pass it, always using a default one instead. anyone got a clue?
[14:24] <bod_> phoenix, bkar, restarting alsa hasnt returned the use of sound,.,.any more ideas?
[14:24] <phoenix> makasd0: install it....
[14:24] <makasd0> I have recently installed ubuntu, and I can't apt-get anything, wait I give you the errormsg
[14:24] <un0p> Flice, tried #ffmpeg ?

[14:25] <bod_> ubud, turn ur speakers up?
[14:25] <ubud> bod_: yes I have
[14:25] <makasd0> bod_: I know pastebin, but this is not the conputer.
[14:25] <makasd0> computer*
[14:25] <bod_> makasd0, ok
[14:26] <bod_> ubud, and the sound is still quiet?
[14:26] <ubud> bod_ is very soft even I put to max
[14:26] <phoenix> ubud: probably the mixer settings...
[14:26] <bod_> ubud, in the terminal type     alsamixer     and play with the bars
[14:26] <un0p> Flice, ffmpeg on ubuntu can't be very much different than the vanilla sources -- they should have atleast ascertained what's wrong and pointed you in the direction of some help
[14:26] <NET||abuse> Hi guys.. i've a set of usb drives (WD passport 2's, 160GB usb powered drives) i think one of them has been failing on copy operations. they're more than likely fat32 formated, can i fsck them easily?
[14:26] <makasd0> wait I moment I ssh to this computer
[14:27] <BrightEyes`> hi.i just installed linphone from the repositories and it makes my system slow.it has a window for video and i want to desable it..anyone who has linphone and works perfectly?
[14:27] <jvanrooyen> phoenix: oh ok
[14:27] <NET||abuse> i leave them plugged in and unmount them, then how do i run fsck on it?
[14:27] <frojnd> how can I get info about, what version is package, before I install it ?
[14:27] <un0p> NET||abuse, man fsck ?
[14:27] <NET||abuse> un0p, reading it, but there's a lot here
[14:27] <ubud> bod_: I have colour blind cannot tell the colour, any better besides terminal?
[14:27] <bod_> brb,. gonna get my sound bak
[14:27] <Flice> un0p: perhaps, but I just didn't get any answer from them
[14:27] <NET||abuse> un0p, just there is some data on here that i am loath to loose
[14:27] <sathe> bkar: i looked at /proc/<pid>/ entries but i cannot find there any information about ulimit of the process
[14:28] <NET||abuse> un0p, so i can formulate up a proposed fsck command, but i don't want to get it wrong as it's not something that is easily recoverable
[14:28] <phoenix> frojnd: apt-cache show mp3blaster
[14:28] <NET||abuse> or is fsck maybe the wrong command, is there a more physical level check rather than file system that i should run instead?
[14:29] <frojnd> phoenix, thanx
[14:29] <makasd0> just help me here: How do I copy something via ssh? from my ubuntu-computer to this. This is the ssh-server, my ubuntu is logged on to this server.
[14:29] <un0p> NET||abuse,  there's the -r and -n flags that will report problems but make no attempts to repair them -- atleast that way, you can do a run on the filesystem and check to see if there are problems
[14:29] <gumis> good afternoon
[14:29] <sathe> is there any other way of checking ulimit -n of given process ?
[14:29] <phoenix> makasd0: man scp
[14:30] <un0p> NET||abuse, and -N too
[14:30] <ubud> where to find the gui of alsamixer in ubuntu?
[14:30] <NET||abuse> ahh, ojk
[14:30] <makasd0> phoenix I have no manuals for scp
[14:30] <un0p> !info alsamixergui

[14:34] <bod_> simion314, no one in the room with the name phoenix,. he must have just left
[14:35] <chazco> I have a USB keyboard which doesn't always work at boot time (although sometimes it will work fine), despite dmesg indicating that Ubuntu has detected it. Moving the keyboard to a different USB port fixes the issue (it doesn't matter which port it starts from). Modifying the BIOS options for USB keyboard support doesn't have any effect. If the keyboard is connected to the motherboard then the BIOS and GRUB menu both work fine. If I use a PS2->USB ad
[14:35] <chazco> apter even the BIOS fails to detect the keyboard. Any ideas on fixing this permanently?

[14:40] <Owleto> Hi! I'm trying to install a burner app (trying Gnomebaker) but the installer tells me that it is not authenticated (risky...). Is it because it is not directly supported? (sorry, new on ubuntu :))

[14:51] <NET||abuse> Duke_Fluke, I tried 2 things last night, i tried to copy an outlook pst from my job a year ago off it, and i tried copying a 400MB video file onto it, both operations had faults
[14:51] <Osmic> I did a pastebin of my errors
[14:52] <Duke_Fluke> NET||abuse, http://support.wdc.com/download/?cxml=n&pid=2&swid=30 You might have to remove the drive from its usb carrier and hook it up directly to your computer
[14:52] <bod_> !who | Osmic

[14:52] <xen_> Hi there, how on earth do i install themes on Kubuntu 7.10?? i could do it easily enough with gnome, but with Kubuntu theres no theme manager :S
[14:52] <xen_> !ubotu kubuntu themes
[14:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kubuntu themes - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[14:52] <bod_> xen_, i thinkk u need emerald
[14:52] <Osmic> Hi would anyone be willing to help me install Dlink DWA-140 wlan drivers.  I was hoping to get some help pertaining to starting processes on boot via rc.d. In particular, how do I go about starting them as a particular user, rather than root, which is what it's starting up as now?
[14:53] <bod_> Slart, nope
[14:54] <Osmic> !bod_ I did a pastebin of the errors
[14:54] <Slart> bod_: do this "sudo cat /proc/asound/cards".. anything there at all?
[14:54] <xen_> argh, then this means i need compiz fusion -.-.... which requires gnome no? i want to be pure kde..
[14:54] <bod_> Slart, its in a pci slot i think
[14:54] <bod_> Osmic, we need the url of the pastebin
[14:54] <Kento> Does anyone know of any software that will allow me to optimize my png pallets manually?
[14:54] <Duke_Fluke> Osmic, you did a pastebin thats great, but how are we to help you if you don't post it?
[14:54] <SleepingSloth> check the last post?

[14:56] <SleepingSloth> mpmc - what have you done so far?
[14:56] <Slart> !english | danny9
[14:56] <ubotu> danny9: The #ubuntu, #kubuntu and #xubuntu channels are English only. For a complete list of channels in other languages, please visit http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat
[14:56] <Duke_Fluke> mpmc, I just use the default smb.conf...try adding your user with "smbpasswd -a user"
[14:57] <mpmc> Thanks guys I'll do that :)
[14:57] <SleepingSloth> Duke_Fluke, is samba part of base install?
[14:57] <bod_> Slart, could my computer be confused as to which sound card to use?
[14:57] <Duke_Fluke>  mpmc, you can edit smb.conf to include your workgroup, SleepingSloth I'm not sure
[14:58] <Slart> bod_: that's possible.. you can set the default soundcard to use in the sound settings thingy
[14:58] <CarlFK> i need python-dateutil for a dapper lts box.  is there a backport?  http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?searchon=names&version=all&exact=1&keywords=python-dateutil
[14:58] <SleepingSloth> Duke_Fluke, i was just thinking - he might need to apt-get it first... nvm, it doesnt take a genius to figure that out if smbpasswd errors
[14:58] <danny9> how can i instll amsn on ubuntu??
[14:59] <SleepingSloth> danny9 - sudo apt-get install amsn
[14:59] <brobostigon> danny9: sudo apt-get install amsn
[14:59] <danny9> what??
[14:59] <bod_> Slart, in volume control,. i can choose which deviceto use,. however it lists three ,. 2 alsa's and an oss,. none of the three work
[14:59] <SleepingSloth> danny9 - open a terminal
[14:59] <thinh1977> is there any software i can use to see my cpu tempure i am on ubuntu 64 gutsy
[15:00] <danny9> where is that??
[15:00] <NET||abuse> Duke_Fluke, no can do on the hooking up direct to my computer, first those passport enclosures are not built for disassembly, and second, well, this is my laptop.. actually now tha ti hthinkg of it, the passport drives are laptop drives
[15:00] <mpmc> Duke_Fluke / SleepingSloth, I've already installed it, I'm just going to umm.. install ubuntu again I installed an app that's messed up python, But thank you both.. :)
[15:00] <SleepingSloth> danny9 - or, open synaptic and find it in there. command line input is your friend th
[15:00] <SleepingSloth> *though
[15:00] <Slart> bod_: yup.. that sounds normal.. the 2 alsa ones are your soundcards.. the oss one uses the older Open Sound System (or something like that)..
[15:01] <Slart> bod_: do you have a wav-file available we can use for testing?
[15:01] <SleepingSloth> mpmc -no worries
[15:01] <SleepingSloth> danny9 - applications>accessories
[15:01] <bod_> Slart, yer, but a weird thing,. the 2 alsa's ,. one has controls for everything the other one only has controls for recording
[15:01] <SleepingSloth> danny9 in gnome, anyway
[15:01] <XiXaQ> I have an internal harddisk, and an external one. I want to install ubuntu onto the external one so that it's bootable when I take the internal one out. This means I have to install grub on the external one, right? Or will it still be dependent on the MBR on the internal disk?
[15:02] <bod_> Slart,  i have mp3's?
[15:02] <danny9> i was download that amsn 0.97 but its not starting why??
[15:02] <lettuc3> XiXaQ you can. wont be dependent on internal one.
[15:02] <SleepingSloth> danny9 - what's wrong with the one in the repository?
[15:02] <lettuc3> XiXaQ assuming your bios is new enough and allows you to boot off the external device.
[15:02] <Slart> bod_: download this one.. it's a sample http://www.nch.com.au/acm/11k16bitpcm.wav
[15:03] <punkshui> my partition editor is only allowing me to have 4 partitions but i need to create a new partition. is it possible to combine my /home and / partitions into one safely?
[15:03] <lettuc3> XiXaQ i should know, that's what i'm doing right now :P.
[15:03] <SleepingSloth> punkshui - if by 'safely' you mean without needing to back up first, then no
[15:03] <bod_> Slart,  how would i download that,.
[15:03] <punkshui> SleepingSloth: already backed up. i just mean and maintain OS functionality
[15:03] <Slart> bod_: open a terminal, type "wget http://www.nch.com.au/acm/11k16bitpcm.wav"
[15:04] <Duke_Fluke> NET||abuse, that does make it trickier but trust me they got it in there you can get it out...of course you would need an ide adapter to hook it up to a regular comp unless its sata
[15:04] <Slart> bod_: or go here http://www.nch.com.au/acm/index.html and right click the first wav-file.. select save link as
[15:04] <SleepingSloth> punkshui - ok. i am not an expert - but i've heard way too amany 'complaints' about re-partitions failing and causing data loss....
[15:05] <bod_> Slart,  omg! i have such bad internet,. stupid people in the house downloading the entire internet day & night ,. 2kb ps   thats disgracefull!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1    ggrrrr!!!!!! sorry
[15:05] <punkshui> SleepingSloth: i'm not worried about data loss
[15:05] <mdmkolbe|work> How do I get a more recent version of bzr for ubuntu? (Preferably from the package manager) I need it to talk to a newer format repository (must have a least 0.92)
[15:05] <Slart> bod_: it's all the way from "down under" =)
[15:05] <wyclif> i have GNOME Panel at the top of my desktop and Window List at the bottom: the default setup.  is there a better, less real estate-intensive way to lose Panel but not the functionality?
[15:05] <PaulOttar> Hi! My question: I just installed Ubuntu 7.10, and everything worked fine. Then I ran synaptic update manger, and after the update. My MSN Messenger connection fails.. I have tried, aMSN, kopete, pidgin, emesene.. no one works.. I have also tried HTTP method..
[15:05] <bod_> Slart,  i could wal there quicker!!!
[15:05] <bod_> Slart,  wal=walk
[15:06] <bod_> Slart,  where did it save the file to?
[15:06] <Slart> probably your home folder
[15:07] <Slart> bod_: did you find it?
[15:07] <PaulOttar> My friend runs, Ubuntu Feisty.. and he can connect til the MSN messenger network, on the same connection as I am on... But it will not work with me..
[15:07] <SleepingSloth> punkshui - afaik, the mounts are the only important thing - so I think you could do it, but you'd need someone more knowledgeable than me
[15:07] <Kento> Is there any software that will let me manually optimize image pallets, like firework's exporting feature?
[15:08] <ChaosParser> What's the easiest way to setup mac filtering via DHCP? Or rather, assign certain IPs based on mac?
[15:08] <wyclif> noticed that if you delete Panel you lose those settings.  So how can i get that screen real estate back?
[15:08] <SleepingSloth> punkshui - I mean, i you wereto unmount your /home directory, you could still put things in it (from disk, presumably)
[15:08] <neopsyche> can someone please help me install this .. http://hdateapplet.sourceforge.net/
[15:08] <punkshui> SleepingSloth: its not possible to umount my /home directory while booted into linux from the HDD
[15:09] <bod_> Slart,  where did it put the file,.,. its finished downloading but dunno where it is
[15:09] <bod_> Slart,  i dont like hide and seek
[15:09] <Slart> bod_: isn't it in /home/bod_/ ? or on your desktop?
[15:09] <rich__> yo homies, how can i restart xgl when the video fcuks up and turns pnik without restarting X?
[15:09] <Duke_Fluke> bod_,  'updatedb' then 'locate myfile'
[15:09] <bod_> Duke_Fluke, got it ,. cheers
[15:10] <Slart> bod_: it's called 11k16bitpcm.wav
[15:10] <bod_> Slart,  found it
[15:10] <SleepingSloth> punkshui - err.... not from outside x?
[15:10] <bod_> Slart,  no sound
[15:10] <Slart> bod_: ok.. open a terminal, cd to the folder with the wav file and run "aplay 11k16bitpcm.wav" what happens
[15:10] <Slart> ?
[15:10] <volk> how do I install gnome-startup-manager?
[15:11] <genii> punkshui: You are trying to remount /home elsewhere or just to umount it ?
[15:11] <volk> it doesn't seem to be in the repos
[15:11] <ubud_> I always get this error asking me to install flash plugin, but it always said adobe plugin already install
[15:11] <punkshui> SleepingSloth: I dont know this is all becoming too complicated. you see im trying to recreate the DellUtility partition (I thought I only needed the DellRestore partition)
[15:11] <bod_> Slart, Playing WAVE '11k16bitpcm.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 11025 Hz, Mono
[15:11] <bod_> Slart,  no sound

[15:11] <bartek> chlopaki jak odpalam warcrafta 3 to mam czarny ekran
[15:11] <Slart> bod_: what device is it trying to use?
[15:11] <punkshui> genii I am trying to restore my system to its factory settings but I need to recreate a Utility partition that was on here before..
[15:12] <robd> ubud - possibly due to a known issue with the flash plugin. Try removing it via synaptic and then re-installing
[15:12] <rich__> yo homies, how can i restart xgl when the video fcuks up and turns pnik without restarting X?
[15:12] <zoobox> what have happen if  locate  doesn't give any answer (for a file I know exist) ?
[15:12] <neopsyche> http://hdateapplet.sourceforge.net/ cab someone please help me install this?
[15:12] <punkshui> genii i have too many partitions to recreate it. however the space which the partition used before is still there.. untouched its just no longer a partition anymore
[15:12] <Slart> robd, isn't flash still broken?
[15:12] <ubud_> robd: what would be the file name?
[15:12] <Slart> zoobox: update the database.. sudo updatedb
[15:12] <bod_> Slart,  i dunno,. it doesnt say,. volume control is set to use the VIA8237 device
[15:12] <robd> Slart - yes! Oops. My bad.
[15:12] <sarthor> how to mount my DVDWriter?? NO GUI. just one i need to mount.. now permanent
[15:13] <robd> ubud_ sorry - that won't help - the flash package in apt is broken at the moment
[15:13] <Slart> bod_: when you run it with the -v switch doesn't it say at the start? mine says ..Hardware PCM card 0 'Audigy 2 ZS [SB0350]' device 0 subdevice 0
[15:13] <SleepingSloth> punkshui - if you still have the space, why cant you use it?
[15:13] <genii> punkshui: Because if you are just trying to remount it elsewhere, you can do that with something like edit fstab to the new mountpoint, then: (sudo) mount -o remount /devname        (not /mountname since it is different after editing the fstab)
[15:13] <robd> ubud_ there is a re rolled deb if you're feeling brave
[15:13] <ubud> robd: how?
[15:14] <rich__> how do i restart graphics bloods?
[15:14] <bod_> Slart,  no sound but here is the output,.,.: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53323/
[15:14] <SleepingSloth> punkshui - what partitioning software?
[15:14] <punkshui> genii actually i was trying to make it so i only have a / partition. i dont want my /home partition anymore
[15:14] <zoobox> Slart: ok thanks. now after sudo updatedb it finds the file. What could have happen that made it not work?
[15:14] <punkshui> genii i want it reallocated into /
[15:14] <Slart> bod_: ok, it's using the onboard soundcard.. not the audigy... hang on.. I have to check something
[15:14] <punkshui> SleepingSloth: gparted
[15:15] <Slart> zoobox: when you run updatedb it searches all files, finds new files etc.. I think it does this every night by default
[15:15] <bod_> Slart,  linux is scamming me out of £20 how dare he,.,.lol,.,. i paid good money for something its not using,.,.lol
[15:15] <bartek_> siemka
[15:15] <genii> punkshui: Ah. For that you'l have to tinker from livecd then, or Recovery mode since root's home is not in /home but in /root
[15:15] <robd> ubud - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4073291
[15:15] <bartek_> mam karte nvidia i uruchamiam warcraft 3 albo wow i mam czarny ekran
[15:15] <robd> ubud that assumes you're running 7.10 and i386
[15:16] <zoobox> Slart: aha
[15:16] <SleepingSloth> punkshui - so, you have four primary partitions at the moment and no extended partitions?
[15:16] <robd> ubud - although there is info on other versions and compilation. Somewhere in there lies the answer
[15:17] <punkshui> genii i see. any ideas for this unallocated space.. presumably it still has all the files I need there. its just not a partition anymore... if i create it as say a fat16 partition would the files formerly there return?
[15:17] <bod_> Slart,  r u thinkin it isnt playing sound becauses of conflicting hardware?
[15:17] <ubud> robd: yes using gusty. from the first day of gusty release till today install using restricted extra
[15:17] <punkshui> SleepingSloth: correct
[15:17] <sakhi_> hi
[15:17] <bod_> hi
[15:18] <user05> my pastebin url http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53320/
[15:18] <Slart> bod_: nope.. I think you have the wrong default soundcard
[15:18] <ssscotty6> Good day. I was hoping anyone might know how to start a process on boot as a particular user? I can only get 'em running at boot as root at the moment. Any ideas?
[15:18] <robd> ubud - ok then you can remove the plugin via synaptic or via the terminal - sudo apt-get remove flashplugin-nonfree and then grab the deb listed in the second post of that page
[15:18] <bod_> Slart,  ok
[15:19] <bod_> Slart,  how do i change the default?
[15:19] <genii> punkshui: Recovering the files on it will be possible if you have not deleted the partition or resized it. eg: the only change was to change the partition type or just umount it
[15:19] <CrazyWulf> Is there a way to open a file/change permissions as root without logging off?
[15:19] <bod_> CrazyWulf, yes
[15:19] <SleepingSloth> punkshui - in that case, i'm no expert, but i would have thought you could make one of your partitions into an extended one, and then put the remaining 2 partitions inside it
[15:19] <sarthor> Hi. how to write the dvd? Gui not installed. ?? Confused with "growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/hd*=image.iso" My iso are in "/home/sarthor/iso" how to write?
[15:19] <zoobox> I have a problem with apt-file, it doesn't give any output. any ideas?
[15:19] <genii> punkshui: If you deleted the original then resized it not much hope
[15:19] <CrazyWulf> bod_ , How is it done? :)
[15:19] <punkshui> genii the partition no longer exists. it is unallocated space
[15:19] <bkar> ssscotty6-> put your script as the very last to executed like S96 in /etc/rc2.d
[15:20] <unimatrix9> hi there , is there an better tts ( text to speech ) engine for linux then espeak, and is there an plugin for xchat that does espeak?
[15:20] <genii> punkshui: Then there is not much hope of files recovery
[15:20] <punkshui> genii alright. thanks
[15:20] <bazhang> !info festival

[15:20] <bod_> CrazyWulf, cd to the dir in a terminal then type sudo chmod 777 ./filename            depending on what permissions you want to give it depends on the numbers u use
[15:20] <ssscotty6> bkar, how does being the last script make a difference? In particular, how would I set a particular user for it?
[15:20] <zoobox> for example  apt-file search /usr/bin/apt-file  should say what package the file /usr/bin/apt-file belongs. but it say nothing.... what shall I do to make it work?
[15:21] <bazhang> perhaps festival unimatrix9
[15:21] <CrazyWulf> Hmm ok thanks :)
[15:21] <genii> punkshui: Wait. Unallocated... but did you resize it?
[15:21] <unimatrix9> i know festival , but espeak is better, but a even more natural sounding version would be cool
[15:21] <Slart> bod_: asoundconf set-default-card CA0106
[15:21] <bod_> CrazyWulf, wot file is it?
[15:21] <genii> punkshui: Or just free it up
[15:21] <Slart> bod_: and then try that aplay thingy again.. with the -v switch
[15:21] <bazhang> no idea then
[15:21] <unimatrix9> like at&t natural voices , but then free
[15:22] <bod_> Slart,  if u were a fit women id kiss u
[15:22] <CrazyWulf> Well it's actually a folder, it's not letting me copy a file into it because because it says I need to log in as root to do it
[15:22] <bod_> Slart,  got sound but got errors
[15:22] <user05> Hi could someone help me with Dlink usb wlan card installation?

[15:24] <bod_> Slart,  the last part is because i closed amarok   (aplay=yes) :http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53324/
[15:25] <genii> punkshui: Something to try as a last resort:  at Terminal run: sudo fdisk /dev/<the drive name here>       eg: sda3   or whatever used to be the /home    then t to change partition tye. Put in 83 for type. then w  to write changes. then see if you can manually mount it
[15:26] <bod_> Slart,  i donate £5 of cyber money for ur help,.,. £5 pound more if u explain the errors,.,.lol
[15:28] <ThipThip> Anybody have a favorite process manager?  Perhaps something similar to Process Explorer, or better yet, more graphical?
[15:28] <SleepingSloth> someone needs to stop slart using this channel for soliciting ;)
[15:28] <bod_> SleepingSloth, wot????? teenager here in need of a dictionary
[15:29] <unimatrix9> gnome desktop has an process manager so that ok?
[15:29] <unlord_> o.org
[15:29] <user05> Hi could someone help me with Dlink usb wlan card installation? the install.sh script gives a bunch of errors
[15:29] <ThipThip> The system monitor?  It's ok... I'd like something more graphical if possible... Perhaps something that can show me memory usage on a graph, etc
[15:29] <bod_> user05, pastebin the errors
[15:29] <Slart> bod_: don't run amarok.. run amarokapp instead.. might lose some of the errors
[15:29] <bod_> !pastebin | user05
[15:29] <ubotu> user05: 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)
[15:30] <unimatrix9> !gkrell
[15:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gkrell - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[15:30] <bkar> ThipThip-> have you tried to google for such tools?
[15:30] <ThipThip> ....and also something that will be better about showing the TCP/IP usage of individual processes
[15:30] <Slart> SleepingSloth: hmm..  I must be doing something wrong.. where is my sports car.. and huge tv. =)
[15:30] <SleepingSloth> bod_ soliciting... 'inciting prostitution', something like that
[15:30] <bod_> SleepingSloth, lol,.,. cheers
[15:30] <unimatrix9> hmm, i dont know if gkrell might be usefull, or gdesklets , i dont know if it clashes with compiz these days
[15:30] <Slart> so.. a solicitor is a ?
[15:30] <ThipThip> bkar:  yeah, and I found gPS process manager that way, but I'm not thrilled with it.  I thought maybe there would be a general consensus in here about something better.
[15:30] <ubud> robd: I had earlier install the gnash player plugin, how to remove it ? thanks
[15:31] <SleepingSloth> Slart, heh... how do i know you *don't* have those things? in fact, how do i even know your name is even Slart!?! ;)
[15:31] <sajes> How do I change the number of virtual desktops I have?
[15:31] <unimatrix9> ubud , use synaptic to remove
[15:31] <Slart> SleepingSloth: I think you can be pretty sure my name isn't Slart =)
[15:31] <SleepingSloth> Slart, i'd better stop before i get flamed for off-topicing
[15:31] <robd> ubud - assuming you tried to install it via your browser then sudo apt-get remove flashplugin-nonfree should do the trick
[15:31] <bod_> Slart, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53325/
[15:31] <robd> ubud - sorry - gnash!
[15:31] <unimatrix9> right click on the icon in the right under corner and change desktops
[15:31] <ThipThip> sajes:  a few ways.  The easiest is to right-click on the viewport manager panel and click "preferences"
[15:32] <unimatrix9> robd : thats the non free he has got the free gnash
[15:32] <bkar> ThipThip-> you can always write your own tools, mostly to enhance and existing one, pretty much enterprise people use their customized tools
[15:32] <ubud> robd: so is sudo apt-get remove gnash correct?
[15:32] <unimatrix9> if i have seen it correct
[15:32] <Slart> bod_: I don't really recognize those errors.. I use amarok myself but it's working here.. have you tried any of the other music players? audacious? xmms?
[15:32] <robd> ubud - sorry bout that - getting late in the day over here :-) ok sudo apt-get remove gnash mozilla-plugin-gnash should get shot of it
[15:33] <unimatrix9> beep-mediaplayer
[15:33] <ThipThip> bkar:  I'd love to learn how.  In time.
[15:33] <bod_> Slart,  it was just a nit picky thing,.,. it still works,.,. cheers dude
[15:33] <Slart> bod_: ah.. you running amarok on gnome?
[15:33] <bkar> ThipThip-> reading those orielly hacks maybe? heh
[15:33] <unimatrix9> gksudo apt-get install beep-media-player
[15:33] <lego> soma one can help me install intel 965 opengl?(3d)
[15:34] <bod_> Slart,  indeedy
[15:34] <ThipThip> bkar:  "orielly hacks?"  The reference is lost
[15:34] <unimatrix9> and get your skins for it on winamp , use classic skins
[15:34] <lego> same*
[15:34] <bkar> ThipThip-> books..orielly hack books
[15:34] <makasd0> Help! Someone is running a shutdown on my computer, and I don't know what to do. "Shutdown -c" gives me "shutdown: Cannot find pid of running shutdown"
[15:34] <Slart> bod_: might be some KDE stuff it isn't finding.. don't run it in a terminal and you won't see them =)
[15:35] <unimatrix9> try halt
[15:35] <bod_> makasd0, disconnect from the internet then reconnect
[15:35] <bkar> makasd0-> too late if shutdown has been started
[15:35] <bod_> Slart,  coolio, cheers
[15:35] <ThipThip> bkar:  Ahh.  Well I've just switched to Ubuntu a couple days ago, and I'm very, very exited about it, but now that the semester has begun, I'm not sure how much time I'll have to be an upstanding member of the community.  Since I don't do much coding, I don't really know how I can help.
[15:35] <bod_> makasd0, killall shutdown?
[15:35] <SleepingSloth> bod_ incidentally, i stopped using amarok on gnome because it seemed a bit flaky. i tend to use xmms, but i have beep-media-player installed too
[15:36] <makasd0> bkar: bod_: I am not at the server, I can only maange it from ssh
[15:36] <Slart> makasd0: yank the network cable from the computer.. and.. well.. run irc from another computer
[15:36] <SleepingSloth> bod_, maybe it's worth checking out one of them..
[15:36] <bod_> SleepingSloth, i like amarok because of the gui
[15:36] <makasd0> Slart: I'm not at the computer myself, I have ssh connetion to it though
[15:36] <makasd0> what does the "Halt" command do?
[15:36] <bod_> brb
[15:36] <bkar> makasd0-> pid of shutdown?  ps aux|grep shutdown
[15:36] <simion314> what means if when you go in places->network your computer is not there?
[15:37] <bkar> makasd0-> dont use halt, its very dangerous, it does not do any synching of disk
[15:37] <robd> makasd0 - are you root or have root access?
[15:37] <makasd0> I have root acces, but I lost connection, wait a moment
[15:38] <BrightEyes`> hi.anyone using linphone?
[15:38] <robd> bkar - halt only dangerous of called with certain parameters - other wise it just calls shutdown
[15:38] <bkar> makasd0-> its too late to stop a shutdown process,
[15:38] <Slart> makasd0: well.. it's hard to keep someone out of the computer when you're connecting from the net yourself
[15:38] <unimatrix9> shutdown -h now
[15:38] <bkar> robd-> make sure it is symlinked to shutdown, some systems have halt as separate command and very dangerous
[15:39] <unimatrix9> shutdown -r now (reboot )
[15:39] <bod_> this is the first exciting thing thats happened today
[15:39] <unimatrix9> oh , and sudo afcause
[15:39] <unimatrix9> :P
[15:39] <bkar> thats not what the man wants, he want to find out who started the shutdown process and attempting to stop it
[15:39] <SleepingSloth> bod_ fair enough - there are lots of alternatives, though amarok has the most potential imo. i just found it buggy. thiat was a while back now though... things change...
[15:39] <unimatrix9> ah
[15:39] <unimatrix9> hehe
[15:39] <robd> bkar - true but I'm pretty sure it's been linked to shutdown in ubuntu for a while now... still and academic point as shutdown is a much more flexible option (and easier to remember :-)
[15:40] <unimatrix9> grep?
[15:40] <ubud> what is the quicktime for unbuntu?
[15:40] <wyclif> ubud: mplayer?
[15:41] <robd> ubud - mplayer with certain nasty codecs
[15:41] <unimatrix9>  in /var/log , log files read of the server?
[15:42] <bod_> shouldnt there be a logfile showing who did the shutdown call
[15:43] <zoobox> anyone have used apt-file ?
[15:43] <genii> bod_: Yes
[15:43] <Slart> zoobox: I think I'm guilty of that.. some time long ago
[15:43] <bod_> genii,  where is it then
[15:43] <bullgard4> "detlef@MD97600:~$ LANG=C apropos gnomevfs; gnomevfs: nothing appropriate." Where can I find the manpage for 'gnomevfs-copy'?
[15:44] <genii> bod_: It could have been a cron job or by power switch, did not have to be executed by a user in shell, etc
[15:44] <user05> bod_  my pastebin: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53329/
[15:44] <Gpalco> Dear Ubuntu users. I am new to Xubuntu, but Gnome and Xfce are similar. It is my first install btw. I ran into a problem: did some changes in windows outlook and it worked well for several startups, but now when I log in - I get just a broun blank screen without icons or the pannel. Thout I was able to loch and unlock the screen - the desktop pannels don't get loaded. Ctrl+Alt_Backspace reloads the system, but it is all the same. Is there a way to restart t
[15:44] <poor_man> hi all!
[15:45] <bod_> user05, wot command did u type?

[15:46] <wyclif> !hi | poor_man
[15:46] <ubotu> poor_man: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[15:46] <user05> sh install.sh
[15:46] <bod_> user05, ur trying to run a script called install.sh?
[15:46] <poor_man> I'm trying to mount a freebsd UFS drive in ubuntu to recover some data, and i did "sudo mount -r -t ufs ufstype=5xbsd /dev/hdc /mnt/mybsddisk" but dmesg tells me "ufs_read_super: bad magic number. "

[15:48] <bod_> hi
[15:48] <Gpalco> Is there a way to restart desktop pannels if they didn't load automaticall after login ???
[15:48] <richard_> image wise, of course
[15:48] <genii> bod_: Good Q about where the log is. If they issued sudo to call it then /var/log/auth.log will show the call. Otherwise hae to go through each user's bash/sh history file in their ~
[15:49] <user05> bod_ yes, in the start the script gives also other errrors but this is all I could paste from terminal
[15:49] <unimatrix9> Gpalco : Crtl+alt to reload again, and choose to shutdown then try again
[15:49] <bkar> richard_-> what?  words like  /dev/null ? sudo ? emblazoned on
[15:49] <user05> bod_ but the script should create the folders, so I'm wondering why it does not
[15:49] <bod_> genii,  could u help him ,.plz,. i have to leave ,. his paste bin is :http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53329/
[15:50] <richard_> non encumbered tux images?
[15:50] <bod_> user05,  unless its trying to access something from a folder it assumes u already have,. then it would get that error
[15:51] <unimatrix9> Gpalco : for restart of gnome panels sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[15:51] <makasd0> guys...it was no shutdown at all, it was only a fake-warning :D
[15:51] <bod_> user05,  i have to leave ,. sorry,. try asking around someone should no more about it then me,. genii is pretty well in the know-how
[15:51] <bod_> bye
[15:52] <genii> user05: You are trying to compile tls support for openssl?
[15:52] <Otacon22> anyone know if is possibile to use ubuntu to create pc clusters?
[15:52] <Gpalco> unimatrix9, is there a way to start gnome terminal in this case?
[15:52] <genii> Otacon22: Yes. google for something like beowulf and debian or ubuntu
[15:52] <sudobash> sometimes when i do a /etc/init.d/gdm restart or stop / start it doesnt load up correctly and sometimes just freezes so i have to hard reboot
[15:53] <Gpalco> unimatrix9, is there a keyboard shortcut ?
[15:53] <cdealer__> Anyone knows why firefox doesnt change the default language after installing mozilla firefox locale package ?
[15:53] <bkar> makasd0-> scare the shorts out of you though huh?
[15:53] <unimatrix9> Gpalco : to logout if all fails : ctrl-alt-F3
[15:53] <sudobash> cdealer  are you using beta firefox?
[15:53] <sudobash> 3 beta
[15:53] <unimatrix9> will get you terminal screen
[15:53] <zoobox> Slart, aha.. ok not too long ago I hope? I have a problem with it anyway... it doesn't give any answer
[15:53] <unimatrix9> but not gnome afcause
[15:53] <makasd0> bkar: no, it's my brother who is responsible for all this ^^
[15:54] <unimatrix9> Gpalco : for restart of gnome panels sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[15:54] <makasd0> it's a fun game to learn linux
[15:54] <Slart> zoobox: what file are you looking for?
[15:54] <Otacon22> genii, i was searching, but i don't know a lot, could you give me some info like what is beowulf?
[15:54] <cdealer__> sudobash: Mozilla Firefox <IP_ADDRESS>, Copyright (c) 1998 - 2007 mozilla.org
[15:54] <makasd0> bkar: he tries to shutdown and I try to save (= both over ssh *mhiih*
[15:54] <sudobash> makasd0 not a game for us really a way of life
[15:55] <sudobash> cdealer they have up to firefox 3 beta 2 i believe
[15:55] <makasd0> sudobash: yes, but it's a game to learn 'the way of life' *dowh*
[15:55] <zoobox> Slart: actually I was looking for pdftotext, but the problem is that apt-file doesn't answer for anything
[15:55] <sudobash> 3.2
[15:55] <CygnusX1> Anyone know where to put the ntop.conf file on Ubuntu 7.10?  NTOP installed from repositories.
[15:55] <brobostigon> Otacon22: have a look at the linux documentation project, they have an extennsive document on beowulf
[15:55] <sudobash> its not stable on windows but it seems stable on linux
[15:55] <makasd0> sudobash: since it's not a real threat, just my brother
[15:55] <unimatrix9> !beowolf
[15:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about beowolf - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[15:55] <zoobox> Slart:  apt-file search /usr/bin/apt-file should say that it is from the package apt-file, right?
[15:55] <cdealer__> sudobash: but is vantage to upgrade to beta version on a production enviorenment?
[15:56] <sudobash> no not if it is a company environment
[15:56] <genii> Otacon22: Well, this is not the proper channel for discussing it. But basically beowulf is a cluster of machines
[15:56] <sudobash> if it a home environment then maybe
[15:56] <Otacon22> genii, a program?
[15:57] <user05> genii could you check this pastebin http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53332/
[15:57] <sudobash> beowulfs are great instead of using routers... better security and faster operation
[15:57] <bkar> Otacon22-> you have been asked to google ..read up a bit more please..

[16:09]  * g011um call makasd0
[16:09] <genii> user05: Thank you. Give me some time to read and digest please :)
[16:10] <user05> genii sure, thanks for taking the time to help me
[16:10] <g011um> makasd0: do a who -u
[16:10] <igge> hello
[16:10] <igge> is there something like wine but instead for running mac applications on linux/unix?
[16:10] <g011um> makasd0: then look at the end of the line of  user's PST : you'll find the pid
[16:11] <g011um> makasd0: then do a sudo kill pid_of_the _user
[16:11] <bazhang> igge what app
[16:11] <genii> user05: You got the WEBUI tarball but not http://www.ralinktech.com.tw/data/drivers/2008_0108_RT2860_Linux_STA_v<IP_ADDRESS>.tar.bz2                which is the link just above it
[16:12] <igge> bazhang: no app in particular.. was just interesting..
[16:12] <g011um> http://sourceforge.net/projects/mac-on-linux/
[16:12] <genii> user05: Also you will need to download the firmware and untar it to /lib/firmware
[16:13] <robd> igge - not really. At least not anything that runs under OSX's GUI
[16:13] <flipmode> how do i get firefox to play wmv?
[16:13] <jrib> !restricted > flipmode (read the private message from ubotu)
[16:14] <user05> genii oh, I don't quite know where to put them and what to do with them (I've never installed adriver in Linux)
[16:14] <igge> g011um: but that's more like a virtuallization solution isn't it?
[16:14] <bazhang> igge: mac is posix compliant so apps that run on linux (many) will run on mac
[16:14] <Seamus> Is anyone here using Ubuntu on a lenovo thinkpad t61?  I'm doing some laptop shopping and I want to find a nice compatibile laptop
[16:14] <g011um> igge : http://sourceforge.net/projects/mac-on-linux/
[16:14] <jorje_villafan> How do
[16:14] <g011um> igge : http://mac-on-linux.sourceforge.net/
[16:14] <jorje_villafan> sorry, howdo I figure out my password for sudo
[16:14] <igge> robd: how do you mean? it shouldn't run under OSX's gui.. it should run on linux
[16:14] <QuickGold> how can I dual boot ubuntu server (7.10) and Windows XP?
[16:14] <moonlite> igge: :)
[16:14] <probono> there's nothing like WINE for os x apps
[16:15] <g011um> igge : yes
[16:15] <bazhang> igge if you specify an app we can say
[16:15] <jrib> jorje_villafan: it is your user's password
[16:15] <jrib> !sudo > jorje_villafan (read the private message from ubotu)
[16:15] <igge> bazhang: well.. the first app I would try if there wer such a solution would be flash
[16:15] <robd> igge - sorry I meant programs that run as under Aqua (OSX's windowing software) some / most Mac command line apps can be convinced to run but not something that uses the GUI
[16:15] <bazhang> heh
[16:15] <QuickGold> how can I dual boot ubuntu server (7.10) and Windows XP?
[16:15] <jorje_villafan> oops, had caps on. thanks
[16:16] <genii> user05: Perhaps there is a simpler solution than the one which you have undertaken. Please give me the exact model name which is on your adapter
[16:16] <igge> robd: ah yeah.. see what you mean.. true..
[16:16] <neverblue> QuickGold, read a guide about someone else doing it
[16:16] <neverblue> QuickGold, unless you have a specific question, its kinda hard to explain it from front to back
[16:16] <QuickGold> neverblue: ive read guides about regular ubuntu desktop, but not server
[16:16] <user05> genii dlink DWA-140 USB
[16:16] <igge> but the fact that OSX is posix compliant should make it easier perhaps to write such an app?
[16:16] <gradin> so what do i have to do to make a non usbbootable bios boot from a floppy to a usbstick?
[16:16] <QuickGold> will ubuntu server do the nice partition thing that the desktop edition does?
[16:16] <makasd0> [17:13] <makasd0> how can I ban a computer from connect via ssh to my computer?
[16:16] <robd> igge - mac on linux kind of bridges the gap but last I checked it was only PPC (not i386) and was really designed fro Mac users who want to run linux as their primary OS
[16:16] <neverblue> QuickGold, what do you feel might be different in a server setup than a desktop setup ?
[16:17] <genii> user05: OK, I will get back to you in a few minutes.
[16:17] <robd> igge - that said, the new vmware fusion can virtualise Mac OSX Server 10.5 so it's possible that something will come along soon
[16:17] <QuickGold> neverblue: I have the server disc ready as opposed to having to download 700mb to get desktop so I'm feeling lazy
[16:17] <igge> robd: ok..
[16:17] <neverblue> QuickGold, so you dont think anything would be different then, what are you asking exactly ?
[16:18] <QuickGold> neverblue: I want to know if the partition portion of the install on ubuntu server will be the same as ubuntu desktop?
[16:18] <igge> robd: would be an interesting open source project to start on.. :) if I had infinite amount of time
[16:18] <jrib> makasd0: http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/87
[16:18] <igge> who would join me? :)
[16:18] <bazhang> !ot
[16:18] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[16:18] <robd> igge - it would indeed but I doubt apple would be too happy about it :-)
[16:18] <neverblue> QuickGold, then yes, depending on how you 'think' a desktop partition should be setup
[16:19] <threefcata> hi how do i list the files in external cdrom drive?
[16:19] <QuickGold> so I will be able to dual boot with ubuntu server and XP?
[16:19] <QuickGold> no problems with grub?
[16:19] <igge> robd: true
[16:19] <^root^> jetscreamer, any answer here then?
[16:20] <threefcata> i inserted a game cd that contains CD tracks but i'm not able to see the files in it. how can i do that?
[16:20] <neverblue> QuickGold, if you just leave grub alone, im sure everything will be fine, have you done your research? you seem to think a desktop and a server install are two totally different processes
[16:21] <QuickGold> neverblue: Ive installed both server and desktop and I know the desktop install is a little more....noob friendly?
[16:21] <SleepingSloth> threefcata, is the cd mounted?
[16:22] <jetscreamer> !info pmount
[16:22] <ubotu> pmount (source: pmount): mount removable devices as normal user. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.9.16-4 (gutsy), package size 84 kB, installed size 656 kB
[16:22] <jetscreamer> man mount
[16:22] <threefcata> yes, sorry i got it
[16:22] <SleepingSloth> threefcata, np
[16:22] <threefcata> when i insert the cd ubuntu actually asked me how i want to treat the cd
[16:24] <piraniaaaa> hi!

[16:25] <Lattyware> Hey all. I'm getting Grub error 17 when I boot (no menu), but booting from a Live CD I can still see all of my partitions and mount them, they are fine, and reinstalling grub does not appear to work either. Does anyone know what the problem could be.
[16:25] <CarlFK> not sure what Q to ask... other than "how fix?"  http://dpaste.com/32391/  "perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:         LANGUAGE = (unset),"
[16:25] <noelferreira> does anyone gives me a good howto to configure a remote conection outside my lan between to ubuntu computers and usind a dyndns static ip?
[16:25] <noelferreira> does anyone gives me a good howto to configure a remote conection outside my lan between two ubuntu computers and usind a dyndns static ip?
[16:25] <bazhang> no need to repeat
[16:27] <Xman> can anyone tell me where i can get the source code of Ubuntu?
[16:27] <user05> genii http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53337/
[16:27] <Javid> http://www.ubuntu.com ?
[16:27] <genii> user05: OK thanks.
[16:28] <Xman> user05: can u tell me where i can get the source code of Ubuntu?
[16:28] <Tetracomm> Hi.
[16:28] <neverblue> Lattyware, do you have a combination of SATA and IDE drives ?
[16:28] <Tetracomm> Does anyone know of any Linux alternatives to SMAART?
[16:28] <asdrubal> neverblue, I do
[16:28] <asdrubal> I even have an extra IDE card
[16:28] <bazhang> Tetracomm: package manager?
[16:28] <Lattyware> nevans: Yes. 2 SATA drives (Grub and Ubuntu on one of these), 2 IDE HDDs and 2 SATA DVD drives.
[16:28] <neverblue> asdrubal, im replying to Lattyware's question
[16:28] <SleepingSloth> smaart
[16:28] <Xman> can anyone tell me where i can get the source code of Ubuntu?
[16:29] <jrib> !source > xman (read the private message from ubotu)
[16:29] <Lattyware> Xman: Don't repeat it so much.
[16:29] <Tetracomm> bazhang: No, sound system measurement software.
[16:29] <asdrubal> Lattyware, I know what's wrong
[16:29] <Lattyware> Do tell.
[16:29] <asdrubal> Lattyware, in your grub menu, when booting without the cd..
[16:29] <asdrubal> go to the boot line you want, hit e
[16:29] <Lattyware> No, I never get a menu.
[16:29] <asdrubal> then edit root (hd0,1) or whatever root is
[16:29] <neverblue> Lattyware, i found with my IDE drive as my primary, that I would get errors at the beginning of the install, maybe look into the forums to see what others have attempted
[16:29] <asdrubal> Lattyware, then go into your bios
[16:29] <asdrubal> Lattyware, and change your boot order.
[16:30] <user05> xman sorry no
[16:30] <neverblue> Lattyware, i found that just keeping my partition that I am installing the OS on active, and unplugging the others worked to get the install
[16:30] <Lattyware> nevans, I am (as I said) using the SATA drive as the primary one.
[16:30] <Lattyware> asdrubal: No, Grub loads, but gives error 17 before I see a menu.
[16:30] <Lattyware> neverblue, I have already installed Ubuntu. This is the same system I have run for years.
[16:31] <genii> user05: So tight now you another USB wifi adapter from ZyDas plugged into the usb, or only the D-Link? If the D-link is not plugged in please do that and then re-post to pastebin the lsusb -v
[16:32] <SleepingSloth> Lattyware, have you updated your bios recently?
[16:32] <asdrubal> Lattyware, have you looked up what error 17 is?
[16:32] <Lattyware> SleepingSloth: No.
[16:32] <Lattyware> asdrubal: Yes, Missing File/Partition.
[16:32] <neverblue> Lattyware, im just letting you know that I have experienced the same issue, and what I did to over come it, its your choice to do what you like
[16:32] <asdrubal> Lattyware, is your /boot on a different hard drive from your boot disk?
[16:32] <Lattyware> Or something to that effect.
[16:33] <Lattyware> neverblue: I know, I'm just saying your situation does not apply to mine.
[16:33] <Lattyware> asdrubal: No. /boot is in my / partition, I didn't use separate ones.
[16:33] <bazhang> hmm
[16:33] <user05> genii yes I'm using the zydas now
[16:33] <SleepingSloth> Lattyware - does the bios see all drives, and if so, what mode are they in?
[16:33] <y2khai> hi :) does every ubuntu dvd support german language? like 7.10?
[16:33] <Lattyware> SleepingSloth: 'Mode'? The bios sees all the drives, and I can mount them all fine with a live CD, they are all working fine.
[16:34] <asdrubal> Lattyware, is your / partition on the same disk as the bootup disk?
[16:34] <Lattyware> asdrubal: Yes.
[16:34] <genii> user05: If the D-Link is not plugged in please plug it in now to another port and then repost the results of: lsusb -v         to the pastebin again please
[16:34] <SleepingSloth> Lattyware,mode, as in KBA, etc.. large normal, whatever
[16:34] <SleepingSloth> *LBA
[16:35] <Lattyware> SleepingSloth: No idea, honestly.
[16:35] <y2khai> Lattyware , does ubuntu dvd iso 7.10 support german language?
[16:35] <Lattyware> SleepingSloth: Whatever is default, I presume. I use LVM for my data, but that has nothing to do with Grub.
[16:36] <Lattyware> y2khai: I would presume so. Try #ubuntu-de (I presume that is the german channel)
[16:36] <Lattyware> !de

[16:37] <bazhang> y2khai: most certainly
[16:37] <josh623> hi guys, I'm a newb and I get an error message during the installation of ubuntu 7.10
[16:38] <SleepingSloth> Lattyware, so are they actually showing up in your bios?
[16:38] <user05> genii http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53339/
[16:38] <josh623> I would really appreciate if somebody would help me
[16:38] <Lattyware> SleepingSloth, Yes. If I do F8 for a BBS prompt, I see all 4 drives. I boot of my first one (the one with Ubuntu (and grub) installed on) and it boots and gives the Grub error 17.
[16:38] <SleepingSloth> josh623,  you havent given us anything to go on
[16:39] <simion314> why in places->network  the current computer is not there, just a windows network icon?
[16:39] <Lattyware> josh623: Ask your question, don't ask to ask one.
[16:39] <genii> user05: OK, reading
[16:41] <SleepingSloth> Lattyware, you're dialling in?
[16:41] <Lattyware> SleepingSloth, Dialing in?
[16:41] <levander> I'm trying to "ssh -X" into another Gutsy machine.  But, when I start an X program from the remote command line, I get "X11 connection rejected because of wrong authentication."  Does anybody know how to fix this?
[16:42] <mikebot> Does anyone know why Miro would crash all the time like when I open it, and if it stays open when I open it, when I search for files
[16:42] <mikebot> ?
[16:42] <Lattyware> SleepingSloth, No, why?
[16:42] <SleepingSloth> Lattyware, you hit f8 for a bios prompt?
[16:42] <Lattyware> F8 for the bios boot device selection menu, yes.
[16:43] <x-X-x> is there a way to upgrade my bios without installing windows
[16:43] <Buzz-CP> does anyone know how to make the Virtual Terminal have higher resolution (i.e. smaller text) ?
[16:43] <x-X-x> ?
[16:43] <SleepingSloth> Lattyware,  that's not what i was on about - I have heard of a similar problem being a result of the cmos drive mode settings. you need to check in the actual bios
[16:43] <ikonia> x-X-x: speak to your hardware vendor
[16:43] <x-X-x> k
[16:43] <ikonia> x-X-x: some will allow boot off floppy/usb devices to flash
[16:43] <josh623> the error is "Errno 05 Input/output error". I tried with different iso files, I tried to check the cd and my hard drive for errors but everything seems to be Ok
[16:44] <l3ttuc3> Buzz-CP gnome-terminal? go Edit --> Current profile.
[16:44] <_LoneCrow> where do you change your computer name?
[16:44] <_LoneCrow> server
[16:44] <l3ttuc3> Buzz-CP there should be a setting there for fonts.
[16:44] <ikonia> _LoneCrow: /etc/hostname
[16:44] <_LoneCrow> thx
[16:44] <Buzz-CP>  l3ttuc3: not gnome terminal, but virtual terminal (i.e. cntrl-alt-F#
[16:44] <SleepingSloth> Lattyware, where the mode was set to LBA when it should have been left as AUTO, and the type should be set to USER...
[16:44] <l3ttuc3> Buzz-CP ah, sorry, i don't know.
[16:44] <_LoneCrow> how do I make it take effect ? /etc/init.d/networking restart ddnt work
[16:45] <Buzz-CP> i've booted into other distros where the text (pre-GUI appears smaller.
[16:45] <ikonia> _LoneCrow: you'll need to reboot
[16:45] <_LoneCrow> changed it in hosts, hostname, restarted networking prompt.. oh ok thx
[16:46] <ikonia> _LoneCrow: it's easier to reboot make sure everything that wants it is aware of the change
[16:46] <_LoneCrow> thx
[16:46] <bkar> _LoneCrow-> or you can go to single user adn back to init level 2
[16:47] <_LoneCrow> Was wondering why I didn't reboot.. I typed rebooty by accident .. wonder what a rebooty is.. if you tag that ass a 2nd time?  its a re-booty
[16:47] <Lattyware> SleepingSloth: OK, I'll check that out.
[16:48] <mikebot> Anyone get this in Miro?: /usr/bin/python2.5: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-<IP_ADDRESS>/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so: undefined symbol: PR_NewMonitor

[16:50] <SleepingSloth> us - it depends on the hardware

[16:50] <sixpence> ikonia: What about the akamaru physics engine?
[16:50] <ikonia> sixpence: no idea
