[07:33] <sp3000> rampy: can't really install ubuntu "on" E: but beside it or in its place
[07:33] <Przemcio78> i think the way partitions are marked in windows is sooo stupid
[07:33] <dissection> I have a question. Just earlier today when I opened a folder on my NTFS partition, it said some files could not be displayed. The same happened when I tried search. The folder showed the size as 8GB when I checked properties although it was actually 12GB. After I unmounted and mounted it again, it was all working fine again. Though what could have caused it to show lesser and unable to display certain files?
[07:33] <rampy> basically C: windows xp and E: drive completely free ..Want to install ubuntu on E:
[07:33] <riaal> I want to share folders from different harddisks in on folder whit nft
[07:33] <Radio> is E already formatted?
[07:33] <rampy> yes
[07:33] <Vsop_vsop_vsop_v> hey all
[07:33] <nelopez> delete E:
[07:33] <Radio> just use the ubuntu cd
[07:33] <sp3000> rampy: so if you have no data on the E: partition you can just delete it, and the installer should be easy then
[07:34] <Radio> to reformat that partition
[07:34] <nelopez> you cant install ubuntu on ntfs
[07:34] <Bizzeh> rampy: if you have never done this before, i advice unpluging your C: drive before you install to your other drive
[07:34] <riaal> I want to share folders from different harddisks in on folder whit nft sofar I have had no luck, symlink and bind mount has failed
[07:34] <Radio> reformat it to fat
[07:34] <rampy> but using windows i partioned it..
[07:34] <bmartin> rampy... i PM'd you... i can walk you through this
[07:34] <sp3000> Radio: uh, why would he want a fat partition now
[07:34] <Przemcio78> rampy: ubuntu installer will guide you, it's a piece of cake
[07:34] <Radio> err
[07:34] <Radio> my bad
[07:35] <rampy> its only one 1 drive  partioned into 2 40GB
[07:35] <Przemcio78> Radio: to fat? what for?
[07:35] <nelopez> Przemcio78: the installer is terrible - the default action for the partitioner is to wipe the entire disk
[07:35] <abedo> hiZ ,, what means the S , Ss+, or maybe R ,,, when I type :  ps as
[07:35] <rampy> i need to specifcally install in E: drive
[07:35] <nelopez> for 'next happy' windows users, this will hurt them
[07:35] <Radio> rampy have u tried to stick ubuntu cd in?
[07:36] <rampy> and when i started installer i chose manual partion option
[07:36] <Bizzeh> rampy: again, i recomend unpluging your windows hard drive before installing ubuntu
[07:36] <rampy> i am currently chatting through live CD and half way
[07:36] <Vsop_vsop_vsop_v> havin issues with this record my desktop...  seems to have this error about ( No such file or directory
[07:36] <rampy> there is only one 1drive !!!
[07:36] <Przemcio78> nelopez: it's always been so in ubuntu, just read all messagesand everything will be ok
[07:36] <rampy> but partioned already using windows
[07:36] <sp3000> rampy: there is only one physical disk, with paritions windows calls C: and E:, and a cd drive windows calls D: ?
[07:37] <astro76> abedo, type man ps, and page down to the Process State Codes section
[07:37] <rampy> yes..!! correct SP
[07:37] <sp3000> rampy: and E: has no data so you can destroy that partition?
[07:37] <Przemcio78> rampy: just beware of the option nelopez mentioned and all will be fine
[07:37] <rampy> yes i can do that SP
[07:37] <velko> rampy, listen to Radio: format e: as FAT32 in order to be able to recognize this partition from gparted. this will be the partition into which you have to install ubuntu
[07:38] <dxdemetriou> my mouse goes crazy at random times. I know that it caused by kvm, I tried the solution from ubuntuguide without luck. Is there something else to do, to not needed each time to reload the module?
[07:38] <marcosoria_> razor950: under ubuntu software?
[07:38] <sp3000> velko: I haven't had issues seeing ntfs partitions in gparted that I recall?
[07:39] <Przemcio78> velko: gparted should recognize ntfs as well
[07:39] <sp3000> velko: oh, unless you mean tell it apart from C:
[07:39] <Bizzeh> also, rampy, this channel is possibly the least usefull channel on the whole of the internet, they are so stuck up their own arse with the fact that "windows sucks" they are totaly throwing out the values of freedom they claim to stand for they refuse to give usefull information on dual booting because they refuse to acknowledge that people actualy want to use windows
[07:39] <sp3000> by the fs type
[07:39] <velko> sp3000, yes. but he doesn't seem to know which partition on the disk is presented under windows as e:. this will help him to recoginize it
[07:39] <PriceChild> sp3000, it has a quickie
[07:39] <sp3000> Bizzeh: uh, what?
[07:39] <PriceChild> sp3000, if you want to nuke the whole lot
[07:39] <PriceChild> sp3000, not only one partitino though
[07:39] <marcosoria_> razor950: im in a window with 5 tabs: ubuntu software, third party software, updates, authentication and statistics
[07:39] <sp3000> PriceChild: yeah that's about what I would have guesstimated
[07:40] <marcosoria_> razor950: done
[07:41] <marcosoria_> razor950: can i install envy from apt-get install or i have to dowlnoad the file?
[07:41] <razor950> well I had to download the file
[07:41] <razor950> it seemed that it wasnt in any of my respo
[07:42] <Przemcio78> macrosoria_: can't you check yourself in synaptic or something?
[07:42] <Przemcio78> marcosoria_*
[07:42] <Mind-bOgglEd> any help for version 5.1 i cannot install it on a maxtor 200gig sata hdd with asrock dual vsta775 and using the intel dual core 2.66Ghz 1gig kingston 533Mhz ram is there a driver i can use (sorry if this is a daft suggestion) so ubuntu v5.1 will recognise my hdd . i do not have internet connection so i cannot download the latest version though i do know i can have it sent.only on a wap mobile at minute. thanks if you can or cannot help.
[07:42] <Przemcio78> by yourself*
[07:42] <j0nas`> Bizzeh: i am going to have to disagree with that statement.  I have never seen any evidence whatsoever to support that claim.  In fact, I would assert that people's reluctance to help with dual booting in this channel is due to the fact that dual booting is documented AT LENGTH in the forums, rather than because people here are "stuck up their own arse"
[07:43] <ramp1> anyone to help in pvt dual boot install?
[07:43] <mikubuntu> omg.  i have been waiting YEARS to get my hands on Xara Xtreme and now it's available for linux download.  alas, as a foolish noob, i can't seem to properly download it onto my day old wubi install of ubuntu. error message: Could not open the file /home/mikubuntu/RecXaraLX0.7_rev1692.package.  gedit has not been able to detect the character coding.
[07:43] <mikubuntu> Please check that you are not trying to open a binary file.
[07:43] <mikubuntu> Select a character coding from the menu and try again.  Can someone help me?! :)
[07:43] <bmartin> ramp1, sure
[07:43] <ramp1> since i cannot seem to get my problem solved posting here
[07:43] <bmartin> er, that's an l and not a 1?
[07:43] <marcosoria_> razor950: i have the file now, what?
[07:43] <Zhaozhou> is there any console-way of burning a image?
[07:44] <Zhaozhou> an*

[07:44] <ramp1> bmartin:  how to pve chat?
[07:44] <j0nas`> i like xchat :)
[07:45] <razor950> ?
[07:45] <Flannel> ramp1: Linux doesn't use the same naming scheme as windows (C E F) it goes by partitions.  Is your E on it's own partition? or on it's own drive? or what?
[07:45] <T-Connect> Next release Ubuntu is in October right?
[07:45] <razor950> its supposed to open up a package manager and you can install it
[07:45] <bmartin> rampl: good question. i'm new to IRC
[07:45] <bmartin> T-Connect: that's the plan
[07:45] <ramp1> its my own partition using windows
[07:45] <ramp1> t-Connect..i invited u but nothing happened
[07:46] <Flannel> ramp1: So, you have C and D as partitions both on the same harddrive?
[07:46] <Vsop_vsop_vsop_v>  sudo apt-get install recordmydesktop gtk-recordmydesktop  and i got this error..Reading package lists... Done  Building dependency tree  Reading state information... Done  E: Couldn't find package recordmydesktop
[07:46] <ramp1> yes flannel
[07:46] <ramp1> !!
[07:46] <preaction> mikubuntu, you shouldn't be trying to open that file with gedit. what does the website say to do with that file?
[07:46] <Vsop_vsop_vsop_v> anyone have anythoughts
[07:46] <velko> mikubuntu, i don't understand why are you trying to open a binary file with gedit at all. but xara's vector graphics program is available trough apt-get since months
[07:47] <Wips> are there any programs to play off cd/dvd-images or to make fake cd/dvd-roms for Ubuntu? like Daemon tools or alcohol 120%?
[07:47] <T-Connect> So get updates will be the same as Ubuntu next release right?
[07:47] <dylan_> i need help with my ati video drivers
[07:47] <ramp1> flannel: can we chat pvt since i am stuck in the partion in live cd instillation ...
[07:47] <Flannel> ramp1: do you have a D drive as well?  C D E? all as the same harddrive?
[07:47] <stefg> Wips: google cdemu
[07:47] <Flannel> ramp1: This is fine here, no need for private stuffs
[07:47] <ramp1> yes C, D, E, F and G( CD)
[07:47] <marcosoria_> razor950: i tried to install it and i got some messages that several pakcage modules were not installed
[07:47] <ramp1> all 20GB
[07:47] <mikubuntu> thanks guys, can you tell me how to 'apt-get' it?
[07:48] <ramp1> and XP on C:
[07:48] <razor950> hmm get registered so we can talk in pm
[07:48] <dylan_> do you know where to go to download ati drivers
[07:48] <ramp1> i want to install ubuntu on E:drive
[07:48] <bmartin> mikubuntu: in a terminal, type: sudo apt-get install <program name>
[07:48] <abhi> my ubuntu takes 50 sec to boot. can I decrease the boot time?
[07:48] <mikubuntu> ya, i've known it was available on linux, but i din't have linux installed till about 5 this morning
[07:48] <bmartin> razor950: how does one go about getting registered on here?
[07:48] <j0nas`> Wips: you can mount iso images in your filesystem with the mount command (try man mount to get you started)
[07:48] <Flannel> Vsop_vsop_vsop_v: Do you have universe enabled?
[07:48] <Vsop_vsop_vsop_v> yes
[07:49] <bmartin> !iso
[07:49] <ubotu> To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint>  - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[07:49] <Vsop_vsop_vsop_v> flannel: i do

[07:49] <sp3000> bmartin: /msg nickserv help, generally
[07:49] <Lost487Dazed> any idea why creating a disk in vmware would make my host unresponsive until it's complete?
[07:49] <jstux> Hello! I'm a bit confused about SATA-RAID controllers (especially those socalled 'fakeraids').. would someone help me with some basic questions?
[07:49] <Flannel> ramp1: Alright, well, the best way to do it would be to, with the liveCD, mount and check each one.  Those would be hda1, hda2, hda3, and hda4.  Although they don't necessarily need to be in that order (although they probably are)
[07:49] <bmartin> thx
[07:49] <Flannel> Vsop_vsop_vsop_v: and you're using feisty?
[07:49] <j0nas`> As a matter of fact, Alcohol 120% 'borrowed' this idea from linux, where its been included out-of-the-box for years
[07:49] <Mind-bOgglEd> !register
[07:49] <ubotu> Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[07:49] <Wips> j0nas`: Uhm, could you help me with that? I dont quite understand
[07:49] <ramp1> flannel: ok after that?
[07:49] <Lost> i just got xchat, 1st time irc for me, how do i find #debian irc channel?
[07:49] <Vsop_vsop_vsop_v> no 6.10...
[07:49] <Flannel> ramp1: then you'll know which partition you should use
[07:49] <Vsop_vsop_vsop_v> oops..
[07:49] <LadyNikon> just type /help register ..
[07:49] <Vsop_vsop_vsop_v> lol
[07:49] <velko> mikubuntu, "sudo aptitude install xaralx xaralx-examples xaralx-svg" . make sure you have enabled the multiverse repository

[07:50] <riaal> Anyone know how to export 2 different harddrives in one folder (one mount command on the client) using NFS?
[07:50] <Flannel> Vsop_vsop_vsop_v: well, that's why.  Edgy doesn't have recordmydesktop as a package
[07:50] <ramp1> flannel: prepare disk space ..should i use manual option?
[07:50] <j0nas`> Wips: what are you trying to do, mount an image or make an image
[07:50] <bmartin> sweet... i'm identified now... i guess...
[07:50] <Wips> Mount
[07:50] <Wips> j0nas`: Mount and image. a .iso file
[07:50] <rem_> Hey .. at bootup it says checking all file systems ... and one of the partition is ~300gb it says it has to force check cze it hasnt been checked for a while. it is not the last line though..last one says /var/ ok, but then it freezes ...is it possible it takes a very long time to check those 300gb, like 15,30,60min ? or what could be possible prob ..?
[07:50] <Vsop_vsop_vsop_v> awwww well then that will explain everything.. why dont they tell ya these things lol
[07:51] <j0nas`> okay, read the man page for mount first: eg, man mount
[07:51] <ramp1> flannel: i am using 6.04 version
[07:51] <Wips> j0nas`: gash.. the typos.. "mount an image".. I mean
[07:51] <Flannel> ramp1: manual will work fine.  6.06, but yeah.
[07:51] <Vsop_vsop_vsop_v> so whats my next step... i want to record my desktop ... whats the way to do it
[07:51] <Wips> j0nas`: ok
[07:51] <mikubuntu> velko: gracias
[07:51] <ramp1> yah
[07:51] <velko> mikubuntu, de nada, hombre
[07:51] <Yulquen> is it possible to get automatic logon to ubuntu desktop at boot?
[07:51] <JFr3ak> hi everbody i can't see dvd movies with totem, i'll redy install the codecs but i still recive error message that totem haven't the right plugin, can some body helpme please
[07:51] <riaal> Noone know if it is possible to share 2 harddrives in one folder (one mount on client) using NFS? please?
[07:51] <ramp1> flannel: manually edit partion table?
[07:51] <Flannel> Yulquen: it is.  Are you sure you want to?
[07:51] <Vsop_vsop_vsop_v> dylan: what ati card are you running?
[07:51] <nicholaspaul> Yulquen: yes if you don't have a password
[07:52] <Lost487Dazed> how do you configure ubuntu not to load gnome on startup?
[07:52] <ramp1> flannel: prepare partion table?
[07:52] <riaal> Is it possible to put 2 commands in one alias?
[07:52] <bes> #ubuntu-ru
[07:52] <PriceChild> riaal, add the same alias twice ;)
[07:52] <bmartin> Lost487Dazed: what do you want to load instead? no window manager? or a different window manager?
[07:52] <Flannel> ramp1: yeah, you'll delete whichever partition you made, then recreate it as ext3, and then in the next screen use it as root (/)
[07:52] <Thunderhit> plz help me, I want to remove firefox from my ubuntu since I use Opera.. when I want to remove it using the packet manager, it tells me it also has to remove ubuntu-desktop and ubuntu-docs and some others, well removing ubuntu-desktop wont be good I suppose, is there another way to remove it but keep those?
[07:52] <PriceChild> riaal, eek no
[07:52] <ramp1> should i chose my drive E:..? i know that number
[07:52] <cheatersrealm> what is the standard kernal name for ubuntu?
[07:52] <Lost487Dazed> no window manager... jsut # prompt
[07:52] <PriceChild> riaal, sorry you were talking about irc, not bash
[07:52] <Narcotic> riaal: alias clearls='clear; ls'
[07:52] <Flannel> Thunderhit: removing ubuntu-desktop is no big deal, it's a metapackage, and that's expected.
[07:52] <PriceChild> riaal, do something && something
[07:52] <rem_> Hey .. at bootup it says checking all file systems ... and one of the partition is ~300gb it says it has to force check cze it hasnt been checked for a while. it is not the last line though..last one says /var/ ok, but then it freezes ...is it possible it takes a very long time to check those 300gb, like 15,30,60min ? or what could be possible prob ..?
[07:52] <bmartin> cheatersrealm: in a terminal, type uname -r, that'll tell you your kernel
[07:53] <PriceChild> Narcotic, hehe or that
[07:53] <stefg> Lost487Dazed: sudo update-rc.d gdm remove
[07:53] <cheatersrealm> bmartin: that doesn't work in grub
[07:53] <ramp1> flannel: Select which partitions you want to use for your new installation, and where you want to mount each of them.
[07:53] <ramp1> You must mount one partition on the root file system ("/"), and you must choose at least one partition for use as swap space.
[07:53] <j0nas`> Wips, the command is mount -o loop -t iso9660 /path/to/image mountpoint
[07:53] <Flannel> Thunderhit: however, removing firefox will cause some documentation stuff to have problems (that's the ubuntu-doc bit), so you might want to just add opera, and leave firefox
[07:53] <sp3000> Thunderhit: "but firefox is awesome!" etc etc.
[07:53] <Narcotic> hey
[07:53] <ramp1> flannel: what should i do now?
[07:53] <siriusnova_> hello can anyone help me with ssh tunelling through a draconian firewall?
[07:53] <Thunderhit> so is Opera, sp3000...
[07:53] <Vsop_vsop_vsop_v> Is there a option to record my desktop... other then recordmydesktop.....
[07:53] <Lost487Dazed> thanks bmartin
[07:53] <Flannel> ramp1: mount whatever partition you just made for linux as /
[07:53] <Narcotic> How I install ubuntu 7.04 in text mode?
[07:53] <Wips> j0nas`: ok. And the mountpoint is a folder I make in root. right? I'm kinda new
[07:54] <ramp1> should i tick reformat option?
[07:54] <Flannel> Narcotic: get the alternate CD
[07:54] <stefg> !alternate | Narcotic
[07:54] <ubotu> Narcotic: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[07:54] <morpheus8> Narcotic: alternate CD
[07:54] <Lost487Dazed> setting it up as vmware server... need all the memory I have for VM's...
[07:54] <j0nas`> a mountpoint can be any empty directory on your file system
[07:54] <JFr3ak> please, somebody help me how see dvd with totem, i read a lot of guides but is just about plugins, i'll all redy install it
[07:54] <Wips> j0nas`: kk..
[07:54] <rem_> anyone ?
[07:54] <creatoun__> Flannel: any big differences in alternate cd than desktop?
[07:54] <Narcotic> Arent possible install with the normal CD?
[07:55] <creatoun__> Flannel: in default install.
[07:55] <Flannel> Narcotic: no
[07:55] <bmartin> rampl: delete all partitions on your "E drive", then create two for Ubuntu. one should be at least the size of your RAM: format it as type SWAP; use the rest of the hard drive for an EXT3 partition and mount that as /
[07:55] <Narcotic> deep!
[07:55] <Flannel> creatoun__: no, they install identical systems (although the alternate CD has more options)
[07:55] <ramp1> flannel: mount point i am choosing /media/SDA6
[07:55] <ramp1> is it correct?
[07:55] <bmartin> rampl: do that from the Ubuntu installer
[07:55] <Narcotic> !Minimal
[07:55] <ubotu> The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[07:55] <Yulquen> Flannel: yes, its for a closet pc without display and kb
[07:55] <sp3000> bmartin: E is a partition, on physical disk only, I think is the configuration (ramp1?)
[07:55] <Flannel> ramp1: no, /dev/sda6 is the partition you use, and then / is the place you mount it
[07:55] <mikubuntu> velko:  parts of xara seemed to have downloaded, but still getting these two errors: E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[07:55] <mikubuntu> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[07:55] <JFr3ak> can somebody help me with my dvd trouble please???
[07:56] <Flannel> mikubuntu: Close other package managers you have open
[07:56] <Flannel> Yulquen: Err.... Why do you want automatic login for a computer with no screen or keyboard?
[07:56] <ramp1> flannel: but i see other mount points also ..like 4 columns
[07:56] <Vsop_vsop_vsop_v> jfr3ak: what is the problem??
[07:56] <velko> mikubuntu, you either have another package manager running (apt-get, aptitude, synapict) or your package manager crashed and haven't deleted the said file
[07:57] <Thunderhit> is there a way to make icons smaller on the desktop? I tried making them smaller in the Desktop folder, but no change on the Desktop...
[07:57] <mikubuntu> ok, will close everything
[07:57] <chris12349> I want to run a command and duplicate an entire linux install to a different partition.  is this something that is possible?
[07:57] <sp3000> so how do you easily post screenshots from the livecd? :)
[07:57] <jmchaffie> Ok I've tried shoutcast, and now icecast2, am I supposed to keep my localhost or use my outside IP as the address for the cast server? I'm so dazed and confused at this point! lol
[07:57] <mikubuntu> i think synaptic was updating some files, maybe that was it
[07:57] <JFr3ak> Vsop_vsop_vsop_v, thks, i install all the plugins for dvd codecs, etc.
[07:57] <Yulquen> Flannel: remote access via realvnc in xp on another machine.vnc does not work unless the linux machine is not logged onto the desktop.
[07:57] <ramp1> flannel: so should i chose
[07:57] <bmartin> chris12349: you could use the dd command, but BE CAREFUL. you should read up on it extensively before trying
[07:57] <gues1> Hi, I have a wireless card for my laptop, but I get these messages when I do dmesg: "acx: got IV_ICV_Failure (crypto) IRQ(s)"
[07:57] <cyberphaz> anyone have any experience with accessing window shares on a vmware windows on the same box?
[07:57] <Flannel> ramp1: well, I may have the terminology wrong, but you want to use your partition you just made, and you want to use it for '/' ('root')
[07:57] <j0nas`> Wips: if youre having trouble, you might want to try a program called GMount
[07:57] <JFr3ak> Vsop_vsop_vsop_v, but when i want to see a movie, Totem sya that there is no plugin to manage the movie
[07:58] <jmchaffie> This all works locally... I just can't seem to get music to stream OUT of my local network. lol
[07:58] <Wips> j0nas`: K. that works. but I need mount to think it's a dvd. so that I can watch the movie from a dvd-player?
[07:58] <chris12349> bmartin: thanks!
[07:58] <velko> mikubuntu, if you are more comfortable with synaptic you can install these packages trough synaptic also
[07:58] <ramp1> flannel : yes but i never made any partion using ubuntu..i alread have 4 partion using windows xp when i installed
[07:58] <JFr3ak> Vsop_vsop_vsop_v, the error message is in spanish then i'm just trasleting to english...
[07:58] <creatoun__> Wips: no.  it's automatic when you play a DVD through the player.  no need to mount.
[07:58] <Flannel> Yulquen: Why don't you just use something like ssh and tunnel X? so you can login with multiple users and stuff.  Anyway, if you go to System  > Administration > Login screen setup (or something like that), there'll be options for automatic login
[07:58] <sp3000> ramp1: so delete the correct partition, and then create a swap partition and a root partition in that space
[07:58] <velko> mikubuntu, you don't have to do it on the command line. it's just easier for me to direct you this way
[07:58] <JFr3ak> Vsop_vsop_vsop_v, can you help me?
[07:59] <Wips> creatoun__: It's not a dvd. It's an image. An .iso file
[07:59] <Vsop_vsop_vsop_v> jfr3ak: the way fixed that is go to add and remove and install VLC... and it will install what you need
[07:59] <Flannel> ramp1: Right, At the last screen (the format partition screen), I told you to delete one of those partitions (whichever you were going ot use for linux) and then make a new partition (as ext3) in the space you freed up
[07:59] <ramp1> flannel/sp3000 :  how do u do that ?/
[07:59] <gues1> Hi, I have a wireless card for my laptop, but I get these messages when I do dmesg: "acx: got IV_ICV_Failure (crypto) IRQ(s)"
[07:59] <Mind-bOgglEd> any one advise on getting ubuntu 5.1 installed on sata hdd
[07:59] <umop-apsidn> Wips: i think i understand what you're wanting to do
[07:59] <creatoun__> Wips: you might need an app to mount the .iso then you can play it.  i don't know what app is used to mount .isos though.
[08:00] <Flannel> Mind-bOgglEd: Upgrade to a newer version.  5.10 is no longer supported
[08:00] <sp3000> ramp1: I can't see your partitions that well from here, even if I squint :|
[08:00] <j0nas`> Wips: you can't mount it as a 'type' of disk.  it's mounted based on the filesystem you specified, in this case iso9660.  you should be able to play it through your dvd player though as is, provided you have the proper codecs installed
[08:00] <Wips> umop-apsidn: mhm.. I have a movie in a .iso file, and I want to play it off.. I am not able to burn it since my dvdburner is not working.
[08:00] <umop-apsidn> Wips: i, too, am interested in mounting an iso in a virtual disk. when i used windows, i used DAEMONTools... is there an equivalent for linux? i would assume there must be
[08:00] <creatoun__> Wips: also, the alternate route is to burn the .iso.
[08:00] <mkononi> hi there, whats the typical prtition size for an ubuntu installation?
[08:00] <Mind-bOgglEd> a
[08:00] <JFr3ak> Vsop_vsop_vsop_v, the vlc plugins ??
[08:00] <ramp1> can i send u the screen shots?
[08:00] <creatoun__> Wips: freshmeat.net
[08:00] <Wips> creatoun__: I would if I could.. but my dvdburner is not working
[08:00] <ramp1> sp: y want to make sure i do it correctly
[08:01] <JFr3ak> Vsop_vsop_vsop_v, the vlc is a app to see movies right ??
[08:01] <sp3000> ramp1: if you can post screenshots somewhere and link here, that could help someone figure it out
[08:01] <gues1> Hi, I have a wireless card for my laptop, but I get these messages when I do dmesg: "acx: got IV_ICV_Failure (crypto) IRQ(s)"
[08:01] <Wips> j0nas`: hm.. k. And which dvd player do you recommend? havent played any dvds in ubuntu yet tbh..
[08:01] <ramp1> sp3000: i will do that
[08:01] <Vsop_vsop_vsop_v> jfr3ak: when you mark VLC it will automatically  get what you need to play dvds , mp3's and what have you
[08:01] <Wips> creatoun__: What's that?
[08:01] <velko> mkononi, no. it depends on the software you'll install on the system. with 7gb you'll be on the safe side
[08:01] <j0nas`> Wips: im the wrong person to ask, i've never watched a movie on my computer ;)
[08:02] <JFr3ak> Vsop_vsop_vsop_v, thks i gonna try right now thks a LOT
[08:02] <Vsop_vsop_vsop_v> for sure...
[08:02] <umop-apsidn> Wips:  mount -o loop file.iso /path/
[08:02] <Vsop_vsop_vsop_v> brb cigar time
[08:02] <creatoun__> Wips: they have list of apps there.  but download using synaptic or apt.
[08:02] <mkononi> thanks!  bit bigger than I expected, but Iv got enough space
[08:02] <Mind-bOgglEd> i have not got internet so i cannot upgrade from ubuntu 5.1
[08:02] <Ernz> Does anyone here know how to install the tarball of the latest music applet that works with exaile?
[08:03] <Flannel> Mind-bOgglEd: Where are you right now?  You should download a new CD (get the alternate CD) whereever you do have access
[08:03] <sp3000> hmm. can't you upgrade from cd? don't know if that's easy or what but it should....yeah
[08:03] <stefg> !alternate | Mind-bOgglEd
[08:03] <hat0> hi ubuntu friends - i have installed your fine distribution this morning
[08:03] <ubotu> Mind-bOgglEd: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[08:03] <Flannel> sp3000: if he's doing a fresh install, he might as well install something newer
[08:03] <sp3000> Flannel: even easier! :)
[08:03] <SmartUnix> Ubuntu use BSD-style init or System V style?

[08:04] <imachine> helo
[08:04] <imachine> how I change language pleasE ?
[08:04] <imachine> anyone?
[08:05] <imachine> in X/Ubuntu
[08:05] <craigbass1976> The new edgy updates just hosed my wireless card setup.  How do I revert to the way things were before the update I did this morning?
[08:05] <stapel> Hi I have a wireless card for my laptop, but its not working with Network Manager. I get these messages when I do dmesg: "acx: got IV_ICV_Failure (crypto) IRQ(s)"
[08:05] <Fabiano__> tenho que adicionar uma linha no fstab
[08:05] <stefg> !please
[08:05] <mkononi> velko, thatmuch closer to what I expected.
[08:05] <ubotu> Avoid your questions being followed by a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !patience

[08:05] <j0nas`> wow there is a post on digg that says the ubuntu forums grow by 400 users PER DAY
[08:05] <stapel> Please, can anyone help me?
[08:05] <Mind-bOgglEd> you are losing me already if i dont get this simple stuff i not on net and hate winshit
[08:05] <creatoun> stapel: what's the prob?
[08:05] <imachine> stapel, I think it's kind to say please if you ask about something/for something.
[08:05] <craigbass1976> stapel, do a lspci and google for getting that card working in Ubuntu
[08:05] <IceLink> hi there. my monitor shows me "mode not supported" everytime an application starts in fullscreen mode
[08:05] <imachine> stefg, that was for you.
[08:06] <imachine> anyway, I can\t seem to be able to set my langauge, I can install its support and all just not use it.
[08:06] <stapel> Hi I have a wireless card for my laptop, but its not working with Network Manager. I get these messages when I do dmesg: "acx: got IV_ICV_Failure (crypto) IRQ(s)". Can anyone help me please?
[08:06] <j0nas`> imachine: look in the system menu under Language Preferences
[08:06] <umop-apsidn> stapel: looks like you might have a password issue? but i'm not the right person to help with wireless :P
[08:07] <sp3000> imachine: in gdm you select when logging in. xubuntu I don't know, try the suggested channel I guess
[08:07] <ramp1> flannel:http://www.flickr.com/photos/10386291@N08/
[08:07] <ramp1> sp3000:http://www.flickr.com/photos/10386291@N08/
[08:07] <imachine> sp3000, I'm using ubuntu not xubuntu
[08:07] <j0nas`> er language support rather
[08:07] <ramp1> sp3000: hope now someone can help
[08:07] <imachine> I never said I was.
[08:07] <creatoun> stapel: you might need to apt the drivers for that.
[08:07] <sp3000> imachine: X/Ubuntu sounded like xubuntu to at least two of us :)
[08:07] <ramp1> sp3000 i have been on live cd and doing all this ubuntu is already exciting to me!!!
[08:07] <hat0> i have but one question - is there any difference at all between using add/remove packages and the synaptic package manager?
[08:07] <Mind-bOgglEd> oh you mean start my winshit xp and use the live cd instead.
[08:08] <imachine> sp3000, X=xorg, /=runningon/with, ubuntu=well. you know the rest.,
[08:08] <sp3000> imachine: but, yeah, should be in the menus when logging in
[08:08] <imachine> yeah it is, sorta.
[08:08] <imachine> hmmm\
[08:08] <imachine> hang on ;]
[08:08] <imachine> that's a good idea actually ;P
[08:08] <ramp1> sp3000: did u see the screenshots?
[08:08] <imachine> I thought I'd set it in the language support thing
[08:08] <jsj> Any music fans know of software or a website that will notify you of new releases by your favorite artists?
[08:08] <stapel> creatoun: I don't think the drivers is the issue, because I got it working via the commandline once
[08:08] <imachine> but that was a fail ;]
[08:08] <imachine> brb
[08:08] <craigbass1976> So how do I roll back the updates I just did, or is it even possible?
[08:09] <creatoun> stapel: try running the command again.
[08:09] <sp3000> ramp1: yeah
[08:09] <IceLink> no idea with fullscreen not supported?
[08:09] <craigbass1976> I did not have the wireless card as an option to configure in the network manager before, and now I do, so something screwed up
[08:09] <ramp1> ok now i want to install in sp6
[08:09] <umop-apsidn> stapel: like i said, since your error message mentions crypto, it might be something to do with your password/key... are you using WEP?
[08:10] <ramp1> sp3000:/sda6
[08:10] <sp3000> ramp1: so do you know which sdaX is which X: in windows?
[08:10] <stapel> creatoun: But, I don't want to go to the commandline everytime I need wireless...
[08:10] <mkononi> /leave
[08:10] <creatoun> stapel: create a shortcut.
[08:10] <Wips> Nice, it works now.. You were right j0nas`. Didnt have to be a disc. just had to give VLC media player another path. Works great with the menu, subtitles.. everything :) Thanks alot. Gonna watch it now
[08:11] <ramp1> yes its in sda1
[08:11] <stapel> umop-apsidn: Yes, I'm using WEP
[08:11] <j0nas`> cool... enjoy :)
[08:11] <gaby_> hi all
[08:12] <ramp1> sp3000: and i need to install ubuntu in sda6
[08:12] <sp3000> ramp1: as you have three almost the same size so it doesn't tell me for sure ... /probably/ cdef are 1567 in that order, but...
[08:12] <Mind-bOgglEd> hi
[08:12] <gaby_> sorry but i nee a litle support with ubuntu
[08:12] <creatoun> wtf is up with sda6?
[08:12] <sp3000> ramp1: just making sure -- how do you know 6 is E?
[08:12] <umop-apsidn> stapel: i would suspect something in your encryption settings, then. but again, i'm not the best person to help you :P
[08:12] <ramp1> sp3000: i know from free space
[08:12] <sp3000> ramp1: ok, good
[08:12] <gaby_> i have to disable acpi on my toshiba laptop to have sound but if i have disabled it i did not have network (e1000 card)
[08:12] <ramp1> sp3000: since i completely erased everything from there
[08:13] <whonicca> anyone here use oidentd?
[08:13] <stapel> umop-apsidn: Which is better to use WEP open or WEP shared? Or perhaps WPA?
[08:13] <creatoun> does ubuntu detect widescreen settings?
[08:13] <Krisser50> hey
[08:13] <gaby_> wpa @stapel
[08:13] <JFr3ak> Vsop_vsop_vsop_v, thks with VLC works fine, thks again
[08:13] <Krisser50> can anyone help me?
[08:13] <gaby_> it takes seconds to crack wep
[08:13] <sp3000> ramp1: and of course you have backups and things of everything so you can recover windows and your data when I instruct you to accidentally destroy everything :)
[08:13] <whonicca> anyone familiar with identd?
[08:14] <j0nas`> creatoun: yup, settings for most monitors are autodetected :)
[08:14] <creatoun> cool.
[08:14] <ramp1> sp3000: lol  i have backups of everything ..but will it crash :)
[08:14] <j0nas`> even most old monitors work afaik
[08:14] <sp3000> ramp1: so you'd select sda6 in prepare partitions and delete it
[08:14] <imachine> orait, it should be started from gdm, cheers,
[08:14] <imachine> byes!; ]
[08:14] <sp3000> ramp1: presumably delete is one of the unlabeled buttons on the toolbar
[08:14] <akos_> hello! Can anyone recommand any good music players for linux, that would be more or less like winamp, but have good integration with gnome? (i find rhythmbox pretty nice, but I don't know how to put all my songs to the download queue and then make it play songs randomly)
[08:14] <ramp1> sp3000: but there is no delete option?
[08:15] <whonicca> can someone tell me whats wrong with the following configuration? http://pastebin.com/m6a400c31
[08:15] <stapel> anybody else using WPA for wireless security with Network Manager?
[08:15] <sp3000> ramp1: I'll guess it's the, uh, circle with stroke, no parking sign button
[08:15] <Pici> akos_: Exaile(more itunes/amarok like), beep-media-player is very similar to winamp, as is xmms.
[08:15] <Flannel> ramp1, sp3000, just click 'reformat', that'll delete and should allow you to pick a new FS
[08:15] <icenate001> hi i just downloaded tremulous how do i install it .... the file is "Tremulous-1.1.0-installer.x86.run" it is located on my desktop
[08:15] <j0nas`> akos_: xmms and beep are winamp clones, but amarok is better IMHO... definitely worth a try at least
[08:16] <sp3000> Flannel: the instructions sound like it'll demand a swap part?
[08:16] <Flannel> ramp1, sp3000, oh wait, I'm sorry.  You do need to delete (it's the red circle/X thing)
[08:16] <sp3000> Flannel: I don't know if it does but if it does you'd have to delete to create two, not just reformat
[08:16] <akos_> j0nas`, can you make it play randomly? (amarok isn't a kde app?)
[08:16] <Flannel> No, Don't believe it checks for swap partition, he can always create a swap file later
[08:16] <akos_> Pici, ok, ill check it out,thanks
[08:16] <ramp1> flannel: so it will format sda6 and nothing else.. right:)
[08:17] <Kjellviz> Jack_Sparrow: hi, still wanna know what went wrong when i installed kubuntu-desktop ? =P
[08:17] <Pici> akos_: Yes, all of them have shuffling capability iirc.
[08:17] <Flannel> ramp1: you'll need to delete it and recreate it as ext3 though
[08:17] <akos_> Pici, iirc?
[08:17] <sp3000> ramp1: so you'll get another "unallocated" row
[08:17] <j0nas`> akos_: amarok is technically a kde app, however you can run most kde apps in gnome, xfce, X, whatever, provided the right libraries are installed (and apt will take care of that for you)
[08:17] <Pici> akos_: If I Recall Correctly
[08:17] <akos_> m0
[08:17] <Krisser50> can anyone help me with pureftp?
[08:17] <j0nas`> amarok can definitely randomize your playlist, among many many other things :)
[08:17] <stapel> Should I use WPA or WPA2?
[08:17] <akos_> j0nas`, yeah, i know that, but it just doesn't integrate as good as a native gnome app
[08:18] <umop-apsidn> stapel: the encryption method you use is a matter of personal preference, i think. but you have to connect to it with the same method, so there may be a technical reason for choosing one over the other
[08:18] <sp3000> ramp1: then you can select that and hit the "New" button to create a swap partition of, say, a gigabyte, and then a root partition in the remaining unallocated space
[08:18] <Kjellviz> j0nas`: dunno if its due to installing via adept, but amarok sure doesent work on my ubuntu install ><
[08:18] <j0nas`> true, however, it is worth it IMHO since it is such a good application
[08:18] <akos_> Pici, j0nas` thanks
[08:18] <icenate001> hi i just downloaded tremulous how do i install it .... the file is "Tremulous-1.1.0-installer.x86.run" it is located on my desktop
[08:18] <ramp1> sp3000: the red circle crossed out is not highlighted so i cannot delete it
[08:18] <akos_> damn, exaile website is down
[08:19] <sp3000> ramp1: when the sda6 row is selected?
[08:19] <j0nas`> Kjellviz, likely... you may want to look up the medibuntu repository and install it from there via apt
[08:19] <ramp1> sp3000: yes
[08:19] <sp3000> ramp1: oh, there's the lock icon
[08:19] <sp3000> ramp1: means it's mounted at the moment
[08:19] <sp3000> ramp1: right click on it, unmount
[08:19] <Kjellviz> j0nas`: i try to stay with the standard repos as far as i can
[08:19] <cyberphaz> gah samba pisses me off
[08:20] <ramp1> sp3000: i get only deactivate option
[08:20] <Flannel> icenate001: tremulous is in the repositories, in multiverse
[08:20] <ramp1> sp3000: unmount is inactive
[08:20] <abhi> my ubuntu takes 50 sec to boot. can I decrease the boot time?
[08:20] <Kjellviz> lol
[08:21] <poppey> 50 sec ?
[08:21] <sp3000> ramp1: hrm, don't know what that is
[08:21] <mikubuntu> velko: last output says: Setting up xaralx (0.7r1692-2) ...
[08:21] <mikubuntu> Setting up xaralx-examples (0.7r1692-2) ...
[08:21] <mikubuntu> Setting up xaralx-svg (0.7r1692-2) ...
[08:21] <mikubuntu> mikubuntu@ubuntu:~$  DOES that mean it's complete?  what do i do next?  thanx for all your help...
[08:21] <abhi> yah
[08:21] <sp3000> abhi: can you suspend?
[08:21] <Kjellviz> abhi: yes, buy a flash harddrive for $400
[08:21] <Kjellviz> =P
[08:21] <ramp1> sp3000: probably because its locked i see locked icon
[08:21] <ramp1> sp3000: i can deactivate ..
[08:21] <abhi> what?
[08:22] <ramp1> sp3000: i haven't done should i try that?
[08:22] <zeldafan500> who has msn?
[08:22] <sp3000> ramp1: unmounting removes the lock and allows delete, here :) I don't know what deactivate is, if you also have unmount (albeit dimmed)
[08:22] <Kjellviz> abhi: i was kidding, since i think 50 sec is fast
[08:22] <ramp1> sp3000: but deactivate won't unmount  i guess as u said
[08:22] <jafnoob> even though I have feisty-commercial activated, I can't find/install realplayer, any ideas how to do this?
[08:23] <mrfr0g> Hopefully someone can help me, I am having an issue playing DVDs, I keep getting a segmentation fault, core dumped message. I followed all the info at http://www.cs.cornell.edu/~djm/ubuntu/#multimedia, and nothing seems to help...
[08:23] <abhi> Kjellviz, : what is your boot time of ubuntu?
[08:23] <ramp1> sp3000: unmount is dimmed
[08:23] <Mind-bOgglEd> bi and thanks for the answerS ILL be back(probably)
[08:23] <icenate001> flannel: i am new whats that mean hahaha
[08:23] <Kjellviz> abhi: no idea, never clocked it
[08:23] <Flannel> !multiverse
[08:23] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[08:23] <Kjellviz> abhi: i just turn it on and use it when its ready ><
[08:23] <Flannel> icenate001: enable multiverse, and then you'll have trem-- in your repositories
[08:23] <abhi> Kjellviz, : debian just takes 30secs to boot.....
[08:24] <DragoonMaster> bonsoir
[08:24] <ramp1> sp3000: only new and deactivate are bright other options are dim
[08:24] <icenate001> how do i enable haha..i just started using linux
[08:24] <DragoonMaster> j'ai install une premiere fois phpmyadmin sur une debian, via ssh, et j'aimerais savoir comment le supprimer totalement, c'est a dire, supprimer la configuration que j'ai du faire la toute premiere fois (choix du mot de pass, etc)
[08:24] <Kjellviz> abhi: oki, vista takes 3 mins ^^  (im just guessing, but its far slower than ubuntu anyways ^^)
[08:24] <j0nas`> Kjellviz, why
[08:24] <DragoonMaster> Pouriez -vous m'indiquer la marche a suivr e?
[08:24] <DragoonMaster> car apt-get remove ne semble pas bien faire son boulot (ni apt-get clean)
[08:25] <Kjellviz> j0nas`: why what ?
[08:25] <Jordan_U> !fr | DragoonMaster
[08:25] <DragoonMaster> omg
[08:25] <ramp1> sp3000: any idea?
[08:25] <DragoonMaster> sorry
[08:25] <j0nas`> why stick with the standard repositories
[08:25] <DragoonMaster> ubuntu-fr :D
[08:25] <sp3000> ramp1: sure you have the sda6 row selected?
[08:25] <ubotu> DragoonMaster: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[08:25] <ramp1> sp3000: i double checked
[08:25] <j0nas`> are you scared? hehe
[08:25] <sp3000> ramp1: it sounds weird that "New" would be enabled on an existing partition
[08:25] <Kjellviz> j0nas`: less funky repos means less funky problems
[08:25] <sp3000> hm.
[08:25] <Kjellviz> =)
[08:25] <sp3000> mo repos mo problems eh
[08:26] <ramp1> sp3000 : thats what it is ...i can't help
[08:26] <alecw1> Hi, I have a dell laptop currentely at "1280x800", but I want a larger resolution. The option isn't available in the "Resolution Preferences" in the admin panel, how do I change the resolution? I'm not sure what I want, I just want more space.
[08:26] <Flannel> icenate001: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu
[08:26] <Narcotic> hey
[08:26] <j0nas`> If you say so... i have lots of 3rd party repos enabled and my system works great :)
[08:26] <alecw1> !resolution
[08:26] <ubotu> The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[08:26] <Kjellviz> j0nas`: well maybe you're a long time linux user ?
[08:26] <Kjellviz> =P
[08:26] <abhi> Kjellviz, : do't compare vista and ubuntu .. compare ubuntu and xp ( 20sec booot time)....
[08:26] <alecw1> Can anyone help?
[08:27] <Jordan_U> alecw1, What GPU?
[08:27] <ramp1> sp3000: do i really need to unmount and format?
[08:27] <Narcotic> i download minimal install, now he is downloading packages. Is possible to use install cd instead internet to get the packages ?
[08:27] <sp3000> ramp1: so afaiui deactivate is something you'd see on a swap partition
[08:27] <whonicca> can someone help me with identd please?
[08:27] <alecw1> Jordan_U, I don't know, how do I find out?
[08:27] <sp3000> ramp1: yeah can't install ubuntu on windows filesystems
[08:27] <Kjellviz> abhi: why not? ubuntu has more security, and more graphical eyecandy than vista, so why not compare them ? (its those 2 i use anyways)
[08:27] <Don> I get a core dump error when trying to run Synaptic fron the terminal....and it won't run from System>Admin>Synaptic....in terminal I get core dumped error....Is there a fix, or do I reinstall?
[08:27] <m11> ramp1 ; wubi
[08:27] <sp3000> ramp1: um, try restarting the installer or something silly like that?
[08:28] <ramp1> sp3000: can i go to next screen and select /sda6  for the new installation??
[08:28] <Jordan_U> alecw1, lspci
[08:28] <zeldafan500> who has msn?
[08:28] <alecw1> Jordan_U, ok, what do you want in the output?
[08:28] <ramp1> sp3000: or it has to be formatted before preparing mount points
[08:28] <Jordan_U> alecw1, All I need to know is the brand though, ATI / Nvidia / intel
[08:29] <sp3000> ramp1: doesn't look like it by the "prepare mount points" screenshot
[08:29] <alecw1> Looks like Intel.
[08:29] <alecw1> yes, intel.
[08:29] <m11> does KDE kiosk tool work in ubuntu ?
[08:29] <ramp1> sp3000: are u sure about that?
[08:30] <alecw1> Jordan_U, it's Intel. (Just repeating because it might not have alerted you, I didn't include my name in the previous post.)
[08:30] <ramp1> sp3000: since it says i need to chose one partion for root system and one for swap spae
[08:30] <abhi> Kjellviz, : I agree, ubuntu is much much more secure than xp but not more than vista, because vista has atmost 10 patches and ubuntu have 80 patches when both are released.
[08:30] <sp3000> ramp1: I doubt you want to spend 20GB on swap
[08:30] <Kjellviz> vista being secure is a illusion
[08:30] <Jordan_U> alecw1, Then try using the intel driver as explained on the fix resolution page
[08:30] <m11> lol abhi
[08:30] <preaction> abhi, that is not a measure of security.
[08:30] <Jordan_U> !fixres > alecw1
[08:30] <alecw1> abhi, that's illogical reasoning... Ubuntu is much more secure.
[08:30] <ramp1> sp3000: so my guess is in the before screen i should chose E : new pation
[08:31] <sp3000> ramp1: also I'm assuming the other partitions have useful data you'd prefer to keep ;)
[08:31] <astro76> abhi, vista patches only the os, ubuntu updates 10000 software packages too
[08:31] <ramp1> or rather sda6
[08:31] <Kjellviz> it has higher security vs stupid users but thats about it ><
[08:31] <abhi> I am not saying this , it is being told by osnews.com
[08:31] <ramp1> and make 2 partion there
[08:31] <azslande> I have a laptop with a PCMCIA wireless card, and I am having the most difficult time getting it to work. Can anyone help me at all?
[08:31] <alecw1> Jordan_U, I looked at it, and I don 't see where to modify. It looks like something in the xorg.conf file. I'm sort of new to ubuntu, so can you guide me through it?
[08:31] <ramp1> sp3000: divide sda6 into 1GB and 19GB
[08:31] <Jordan_U> azslande, What chipset?
[08:32] <ramp1> sp3000 so that i don't use the 20gb   swap space
[08:32] <askand> Im trying to run gta2 with latest cedega..I get to the opening animation but it shuts down after that..help?
[08:32] <sp3000> ramp1: well the two parts would probably be named sda6 and sda8 then
[08:32] <Kjellviz> abhi: and the fact that microsoft aint capable of patchiing their OS does NOT mean its more secure
[08:32] <alecw1> Rightly said, Kjellviz.
[08:32] <ramp1> sp3000: do u think i should do that?
[08:32] <Thunderhit> I want to change the resolution, but the max I can select is 1024x768 but my monitors native res. is 1280x1024 (19" TFT) where can I add or change to that resolution? I have installed the nvidia driver so that shouldnt be the problem
[08:32] <abhi> may be
[08:32] <azslande> Jordan_U: Its a Linksys WPC54GS.... lspci outputs Broadcom BCM4318
[08:32] <Jordan_U> alecw1, Sure, first install xserver-xorg-video-intel
[08:32] <Kjellviz> abhi: i work as a pc tech, and i know of several unpatched bugs in windwos i face almost on a daily basis when customers call me
[08:33] <sp3000> ramp1: what's the, uh, before screen?
[08:33] <Jordan_U> azslande, Install bcm43xx-fwcutter
[08:33] <Kjellviz> in vista*
[08:33] <ramp1> sp3000: i get create new partion (
[08:33] <azslande> Jordan_U: Tried, but I dont think I have the right Repos for it
[08:33] <sp3000> ramp1: lemme look for that "deactivate" thing for a moment
[08:33] <ramp1> sp3000: create as logical partion
[08:33] <alecw1> Jordan_U, thanks. It said "xserver-xorg-video-intel is already the newest version." What now?
[08:34] <ramp1> sp3000:Make sure to allocate space for a root partition ("/"), with a minimum size of 2 GB, and a swap partition of at least 256 MB.
[08:34] <alecw1> azlande, what laptop do you have?
[08:34] <ramp1> sp3000 : on the bottom screen
[08:34] <Jordan_U> alecw1, run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh" and choose intel when asked the driver, you will need to know the native resolution of your monitor though
[08:34] <azslande> alecw1: Inspiron 2200
[08:34] <ramp1> sp3000: i will send some more screen shots
[08:34] <clouder> Thunderhit: you probably have to adjust your refresh rates in xorg.conf and add the resolution 1280x1024
[08:34] <azslande> without wireless built in
[08:34] <Flannel> ramp1: how much RAM do you have?
[08:35] <ramp1> flannel: 1GB
[08:35] <bluefox83> quick...whats the terminal command for checking hard drive space?
[08:35] <Kjellviz> anyways, im very very eager to make the switch to KDE desktop, but ive had some issues with mounting my windows partition, getting my multimedia keyboard to work and sound issues with WoW in Wine when running Kubuntu, all of which are running fine in Ubuntu
[08:35] <Jordan_U> azslande, I think it is in universe
[08:35] <alecw1> I'm not sure of my native resolution.... I just know it's running at 1280x800 now, and I want more space. Can't I just calculate a bigger space?
[08:35] <j0nas`> bluefox83: df -h
[08:35] <alecw1> I have a Dell Latitude D630
[08:35] <bluefox83> LOL
[08:35] <bluefox83> i typed dh -f in terminal :D
[08:35] <sp3000> Flannel: heh yeah, some update once broke swap mounting for me, didn't notice a thing :D
[08:35] <azslande> Jordan_U: I think so too, I saw something about it on a page, just couldn't figure out how to add it via terminal
[08:35] <alecw1> alecw1, what's your wireless card?
[08:35] <ramp1> flannel: did u have a look at the screenshots?
[08:35] <Kjellviz> would you recommend me to install kubuntu-desktop on my ubuntu install, or install kubuntu as a dual boot to tinker on its own ?
[08:35] <sp3000> Flannel: though linking libxul will teach you  :O
[08:36] <j0nas`> maybe you're dyslexic? :)
[08:36] <alecw1> azslande, I mean, what's your wireless card?
[08:36] <Flannel> ramp1: You'll probably be fine without swap.  And if you find you need it, you can always add it in later.

[08:37] <Jordan_U> azslande, np
[08:37] <alecw1> ok, one sec.  and Jordan_U, I'm at that screen right now, it's asking me which rez I awnt.
[08:37] <Kjellviz> alecw1: (you may have to go to your countrys dell support site to find your exact system)
[08:37] <sp3000> Flannel: does the "reformat" option let you change the fs type though?
[08:38] <Kjellviz> alecw1: like support.dell.se if your from sweden

[08:38] <ramp1> sp3000 : http://www.flickr.com/photos/10386291@N08/
[08:38] <Jordan_U> alecw1, I am not sure if this will work but try *un* selecting the resolutions that are selected so nothing is selected
[08:38] <ramp1> flannel:http://www.flickr.com/photos/10386291@N08/
[08:38] <ramp1> sp3000/flannel: hope that helps
[08:38] <alecw1> are you sure, Jordan_U?
[08:39] <Jordan_U> alecw1, If you know 1440x900 is your native res then mark that
[08:39] <Kjellviz> Jordan_U: i dont think it is
[08:39] <alecw1> how do I check it? Spacebar?
[08:39] <Kjellviz> Jordan_U: but i think its higher, and that 1440*900 will look ok
[08:39] <ramp1> sp3000: btw is it possible to access the windows file from linux?
[08:39] <Jordan_U> alecw1, No :)
[08:39] <Lost487Dazed> can anyone answer a vmware question?
[08:40] <Jordan_U> alecw1, Yes
[08:40] <j0nas`> Lost487Dazed, sure
[08:40] <ramp1> sp3000: i heard its little tricky but once done correctly its cakewalk
[08:40] <alecw1> ok Jordan_U, it's done. :) Do I restart X?
[08:40] <Jordan_U> !ntfs3g | ramp1
[08:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ntfs3g - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:40] <Jordan_U> alecw1, yes
[08:40] <ramp1> sp3000/flannel: i am waiting on u guys
[08:40] <Lost487Dazed> running vmware server on ubuntu 7.0.4 when I boot up a vm, with a cd in the drive.. vmware tells me there is no bootable media
[08:40] <Lost487Dazed> any ideas?
[08:40] <Jordan_U> !ntfs-3g | ramp1
[08:40] <ubotu> ramp1: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[08:40] <sp3000> ramp1: for ntfs, read-only by default
[08:41] <j0nas`> Lost487Dazed, click the Legacy emulation checkbox, and try again
[08:41] <Lost487Dazed> already tried that
[08:41] <clouder> Is it normal for my computer to take 10-15 minutes to be visible on the network after restarting samba?  If I reboot, the computer is visible immediately however.
[08:41] <sp3000> ramp1: haven't tried that ntfs-3g writing support but apparently people think it works or something :)
[08:41] <Flannel> ramp1: What about?
[08:41] <ramp1> sp3000: let me install ubuntu first !!!:)
[08:41] <j0nas`> perhaps your disk is in the wrong drive?
[08:41] <Lost487Dazed> tried using /dev/hdc /dev/cdrom and auto detect as well
[08:41] <ramp1> flannel : did u check the screenshots
[08:42] <j0nas`> hmm, it should work... maybe you could try it with an iso instead?
[08:42] <alecw1> Jordan_U, I just restarted X, and the option isn't listed in Screen Rez. :(
[08:42] <Lost487Dazed> hadn't thought of that...
[08:42] <ramp1> flannel: i want to install ubuntu on sda6 and my xp is on sda1
[08:42] <sp3000> ramp1: so I'm surprised it gives you the "new" option like that on the sda6 row
[08:42] <ramp1> sp3000: so what should i do?.
[08:42] <Dorman> Well, I'll be, I actually managed to make this IRC channel program work! oO
[08:43] <Flannel> ramp1: Right, whats your question?  Don't worry about the swap space.  Just install to that partition
[08:43] <alecw1> Ok, Jordan_U, I'm back at the configure screen for xorg, and I'm looking at the screen rez (1440x900) is not checked. I did save it though....
[08:43] <Lost487Dazed> roflmao.. ok.. figured out
[08:43] <j0nas`> what happened?
[08:43] <Lost487Dazed> it wasn't the wrong drive per say...
[08:43] <ramp1> sp3000: so do i reformat it after checking it
[08:43] <sp3000> ramp1: so something like, set free space preceding 0, new size 1000, create as swap
[08:43] <Kjellviz> alecw1: http://www.dell.com/content/products/productdetails.aspx/latit_d630?c=us&l=en&s=bsd&cs=04
[08:43] <Lost487Dazed> wasnt' connected... DOH
[08:43] <j0nas`> hehe
[08:43] <j0nas`> that'll do it!
[08:43] <Lost487Dazed> everytime... funny how it's the stupid things that always hang me up...
[08:43] <ramp1> flannel: so do i reformat too which is next screen option
[08:43] <Jordan_U> alecw1, Try dpkg-reconfigure again but mark 1440x900 this time, or try selecting all of the resolutions instead of none :)
[08:44] <Kjellviz> alecw1: your native resolution is either 1280*800 or 1440*900
[08:44] <swimme1> why do i always have to do sudo modprobe ndswrapper before i can use the internet? i am kinda new at this
[08:44] <sp3000> ramp1: or, um, create as logical, filesystem swap rather, probably
[08:44] <T-Connect> It funny I get out of range over 1280x1024.
[08:44] <Kjellviz> alecw1: depending on what screen you have in your D630
[08:44] <alecw1> I think I'll take 1440x900
[08:44] <alecw1> Kjellviz
[08:44] <T-Connect> Ubuntu doesn't like over 1280x1024 on my LCD screen.
[08:44] <alecw1> But I'm "checking" the box, and then I restarted X, and it looks like it didnt' save it!
[08:44] <ramp1> sp3000: so ure saying i select around 1000mb and select file system is linux-swap
[08:45] <Kjellviz> alecw1: well, if its a native 1280*800 screen then you will have problems viewing anytjhing
[08:45] <alecw1> T-connect, what laptop do you have?
[08:45] <sp3000> ramp1: right. what does the list look like after that?
[08:45] <T-Connect> Oh it a pc computer.
[08:45] <Kjellviz> alecw1: and in worst case you may damage the LCD
[08:45] <ramp1> sp3000: let me do it
[08:45] <swimme1> can anyone help me?
[08:45] <alecw1> I'm at 1280x80, but I want bigger space...
[08:45] <alecw1> 800*
[08:45] <alecw1> really?
[08:45] <alecw1> wow
[08:46] <swimme1> helllooooooooooooo?
[08:46] <T-Connect> My screen only go for 1280x1024 anyway. On XP it is different,
[08:46] <Kjellviz> alecw1: just check out what screen you've got first
[08:46] <alecw1> Ok, Kjellviz, I'll be back in a sec
[08:47] <Jordan_U> !hi | swimme1
[08:47] <ubotu> swimme1: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[08:47] <swimme1> hi
[08:47] <swimme1> did you see my question?
[08:47] <alecw1> :P
[08:47] <alecw1> How do I see what my screen can handle?
[08:48] <alecw1> I just got the D630 a few days ago
[08:48] <ramp1> sp3000: weird even though i choose 512mb for swap , i end up getting 19.5GB as swap
[08:48] <Jordan_U> swimme1, Because the guide that you used was probably missing a step :)
[08:48] <Kjellviz> alecw1: WXGA+ (1440 x 900 resolution)
[08:48] <Kjellviz> WXGA (1280 x 800 resolution)
[08:48] <sp3000> swimme1: I did and I don't know; you probably don't want all the 1000 users here elling you that though ;)
[08:48] <swimme1> huh?
[08:48] <Kjellviz> alecw1: find out if you have a + or not
[08:48] <waqar> hi, my firefox keeps freezing with youtube if i close it or open onother page while its playing a video, i have to force quit it every time, im using feisty, can anybody help
[08:48] <alecw1> ok
[08:48] <Jordan_U> swimme1, What guide did you use for NDISwrapper?
[08:48] <j0nas`> swimmel: add ndiswrapper to your /etc/modules file
[08:49] <j0nas`> swimmel: then you wont have to modprobe every time you boot
[08:49] <swimme1> the install file
[08:49] <ramp1> sp3000:  what is free space preceeding and free space following
[08:49] <swimme1> how?
[08:49] <Jordan_U> waqar, The flash plugin is unstable, not much you can do
[08:49] <Flannel> swimme1: You know ndiswwrapper is in the repositories, right?
[08:49] <swimme1> i didnt work
[08:49] <swimme1> it*
[08:49] <Kjellviz> alecw1: most likely, changing the reso for 10-15 sec will not damage the LCD, but i dunno if ubuntu automatically changes back if you dont click ok like on windows ? (ive always set my reso in xorg.conf)
[08:50] <waqar> Jordan_U:   ok thannks anyway
[08:50] <Jordan_U> Kjellviz, It does
[08:50] <alecw1> Kjellviz, I ave the "WXGA LCD"
[08:50] <sp3000> ramp1: you have a certain blob of space, you can leave unallocated space before and after a partition you crate if it's smaller than the unallocated space available. mostly that's useful if you want to create something else in that space
[08:50] <Kjellviz> Jordan_U: ok thanks =)
[08:50] <sp3000> ramp1: so how's the list look like now?
[08:50] <Kjellviz> alecw1: well then your max reso is 1280*800 im afraid
[08:50] <sp3000> or those spaces as the case may be
[08:50] <swimme1> j0nas`: i'm new to linux, how do i do that?
[08:50] <T-Connect> Flash Player. Go here and click on the green puzzle on the top of screen. http://www.flashgames247.com/
[08:51] <Kjellviz> alecw1: pressing the LCD higher may damage it =\
[08:51] <alecw1> Kjellviz,  are you absolutely sure? :(
[08:51] <T-Connect> Install it.
[08:51] <alecw1> It's not that bad, but I'm used to huge screens.
[08:51] <Jordan_U> alecw1, What makes you think that it is not using the native resolution?
[08:51] <j0nas`> swimme1: at the prompt: sudo gedit /etc/modules
[08:51] <j0nas`> add ndiswrapper to the end of the file, save and close
[08:52] <Kjellviz> alecw1: well 1280*800 on a 14" screen aint to shabby!
[08:52] <j0nas`> next time you boot you wont have to modprobe ndiswrapper :)
[08:52] <alecw1> It IS using the native res
[08:52] <alecw1> I know it is, it looks good
[08:52] <Jordan_U> !gksudo > j0nas`
[08:52] <alecw1> but I want more
[08:52] <ramp1> sp3000: it says busy.. and cannot partion
[08:52] <swimme1> j0nas`: thanks i'll try
[08:52] <j0nas`> gksudo, sudo, whatever
[08:52] <Jordan_U> alecw1, Native rez is as high as it gets
[08:52] <Jordan_U> j0nas`, Read the link
[08:52] <ramp1> sp3000: i am starting again
[08:52] <sp3000> ramp1: from where?
[08:53] <alecw1> Jordan_U, ok, too bad. :(
[08:53] <ramp1> sp3000: when i was creating the linux swap space
[08:53] <mikubuntu_> velko: todavia estas?  how do i command line to install 'the latest flash player'?
[08:53] <bluefox83> can you mount a dvdrom on an nfs share?
[08:54] <j0nas`> Jordan_U: quote: "most of the time it isnt an issue"
[08:54] <beni_> how can i list all files which belong to a specific user?
[08:54] <sp3000> heh, "sawpon", nice typo in gparted
[08:54] <j0nas`> in this case, we're only using gedit
[08:54] <alecw1> One more thing, just random... I'm using Metacity, and I want it so the text on each browser "top" (like, the titlebar) is NOT bolded (it currently is) is this possible?
[08:54] <mikubuntu_> there were just 1,111 users in the room, in case anybody interested.
[08:55] <ramp1> sp3000: it worked now
[08:55] <Filippo_FK> Please italian userhelp me
[08:55] <sp3000> mikubuntu_: the number of the ...uh, binary beast?
[08:55] <ramp1> sp3000: now i get one extra drive on the next screen
[08:55] <Jordan_U> j0nas`, "Just be consistent in suggesting good practice: gksudo and kdesu for graphical applications. sudo for command-line applications."
[08:55] <Kjellviz> sp3000: lol
[08:56] <W_McL> bluefox83, you should be able. you mount the volume into the filesystem, not into another volume
[08:56] <ramp1> sp3000: which is the swap drive ( sda8: 512mb)
[08:56] <mikubuntu_> sp3000: omg, do you THINK??? yipes.
[08:56] <sp3000> ramp1: screenshots of both :)

[08:56] <zinx> can someone point me to ubuntuized proprietary nvidia drivers >= 100.14.09 (i've got a 8600M GT, so i need that new of a version for support), if there are any :/

[08:56] <Jordan_U> zinx, nvidia-glx-new ?
[08:56] <myusrnm> hey, i'm getting an error when trying to install bitlbee "Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: libc6"
[08:56] <zinx> Jordan_U: that's 97xx unless i need to update :/
[08:57] <imachine> hello again ;]
[08:57] <zinx> (which is entirely possible too)
[08:57] <imachine> I have had some issues with my graphics, nvidia
[08:57] <beni_> hey my server has been hacked, can't anybody tell me how I list all files which are belonging to a specifitc user??
[08:57] <imachine> it has issues.
[08:57] <zinx> Jordan_U: I'm running fiesty - are they in gutsy?
[08:57] <bluefox83> W_McL, well i want to be able to pop a cd or dvd into a drive on the network and have any machine on the network be able to view the contents without needing to do a new mount each time i pop a disk in the drive
[08:57] <mikubuntu_> so ... can anyone telll me how to 'aptget' the 'latest flash player'?
[08:57] <imachine> they're resolved in 9333 or so
[08:57] <madman91> mikubuntu_: 32bit or 64bit ubuntu
[08:57] <ramp1> sp3000:http://www.flickr.com/photos/10386291@N08/
[08:57] <bluefox83> Mikelevel, sudo apt-get install flashplayer-nonfree
[08:58] <madman91> mikubuntu_: sudo aptitude install flashplayer-nonfree
[08:58] <ramp1> sp3000: so now i think i need to chose sda6 and reformat it ?
[08:58] <obf213> i want to delete a file on my desktop that i cant see. how do i do that
[08:58] <mikubuntu_> madman91:  oh, gosh, i don't know ... dell latitude 600 laptop
[08:58] <astro76> mikubuntu_, sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[08:58] <obf213> gaim shows this file there. but i cant see it
[08:58] <madman91> obf213: press control H
[08:58] <W_McL> bluefox83, then you have to add the directory where the dvd is mounted to as nfs share. it should work. if no dvd is in it, it will simply be empty
[08:58] <madman91> obf213: while on the desktop
[08:58] <madman91> obf213: and it will show hidden files
[08:58] <tonyT> Hello people
[08:58] <sp3000> ramp1: ehm, swap has a zero size
[08:59] <madman91> mikubuntu_: sudo aptitude install flashplayer-nonfree
[08:59] <obf213> madman91 thanks
[08:59] <mikubuntu_> guys, what means 'nonfree'?
[08:59] <madman91> obf213: sure
[08:59] <sp3000> ramp1: so it would have created that in the tiny allocated space at the end
[08:59] <madman91> mikubuntu_: its not opensoruce
[08:59] <Jordan_> Hi guys, im having serious trouble with ubuntu and nvidia TV-OUT with component cables -- is there a way to use a custom resolution?
[08:59] <astro76> !info flashplayer-nonfree
[08:59] <sp3000> ramp1: unfortunately that's not useful
[08:59] <ubotu> Package flashplayer-nonfree does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[08:59] <zinx> Jordan_U: just double-checked packages.ubuntu.com - no 100.14.xx for any version :/
[08:59] <alecw1> uh oh. I accidentally deleted a file I really needed, also from the trashcan. :( Is there any way to bring it back?
[08:59] <bluefox83> W_McL, so i add /dev/media0 to the list of things in the nfs share?
[08:59] <ramp1> sp3000: lol i didn't see that anyways flannel was saying with 1GB ram u don't need swap space
[08:59] <astro76> it's flashplugin-nonfree
[08:59] <madman91> mikubuntu_: not open source.. means you cant edit it.. but it is still "free" to download
[08:59] <W_McL> bluefox83, the only problem will be that you probably have to unmount the volumes on all clients if you want to remove the dvd, but i'm not sure if that's true
[08:59] <Jordan_U> zinx, I guess you have to do a manual install :(
[08:59] <mikubuntu_> so have to pay for it?
[08:59] <madman91> no
[08:59] <madman91> mikubuntu_: nope
[08:59] <mikubuntu_> ok, gotcha
[09:00] <obf213> madman, this lead me to ask how these files became hiddne
[09:00] <ramp1> sp3000: is swap space absolutely necessary
[09:00] <bluefox83> W_McL, that would be so much easier of symlinks worked over nfs >.>
[09:00] <Jordan_U> mikubuntu_, Free as in libre rather than free as in gratis
[09:00] <ramp1> ?
[09:00] <zinx> Jordan: if that's the case i'll wait for 100.14.xx to make it to ubuntu - i don't really want to deal with the breakages caused by using the .run :/
[09:00] <sp3000> ramp1: you can usually survive without swap I guess and you can add swpafiles later I suppose. I don't know if the installer agrees with that though :)
[09:00] <madman91> ramp1: i ran ubuntu for several months without a swap
[09:00] <ramp1> sp3000: what exactly a swap space does?
[09:00] <W_McL> bluefox83, no. add /media/dvd0, /media/cdrom0 or whatever it's called on your computer
[09:00] <madman91> ramp1: it is virtual ram
[09:00] <sp3000> ramp1: ram extension on disk
[09:00] <ramp1> madman: ok...
[09:01] <ramp1> like in windows
[09:01] <Flannel> ramp1: if you find you're having problems without swap space, you can add it later.
[09:01] <W_McL> bluefox83, just find out which directory in /media is associated with the dvd drive
[09:01] <umop-apsidn> mikubuntu_: the difference is similar to the difference between free beer, and free speech
[09:01] <madman91> ramp1: yes
[09:01] <obf213> madman91 how files become hidden in the first palce
[09:01] <umop-apsidn> open source = free speech. free download = free beer :)
[09:01] <madman91> obf213: if there is a . in front of them they are hiden
[09:01] <tonyT> Can anybody tell me what package Ubuntu uses for keyboard keybindings? I have a logitech keyboard and some of the multimedia keyboard and a few of the keys are not working. I didn't manually install any package so i assume there is one enabled by default. BTW, this is on Feisty
[09:01] <bluefox83> W_McL, /dev/media0 is where the cdrom is mounted i think...
[09:01] <sp3000> ramp1: so if you overuse memory, instead of murdering a memory hungry program it makes your computer slow as molasses to perpetuate the pain
[09:01] <ramp1> flannel: ok are u sure one can add later without formatting
[09:01] <alecw1> On Macs there is an app called "time machine" or something, where you can retrieve lost files. Can this be done on Ubuntu? I just deleted an important document. :(
[09:01] <madman91> obf213: your home directory is full of them
[09:01] <beni_> hey my server has been hacked, can't anybody tell me how I list all files which are belonging to a specifitc user??
[09:01] <obf213> madman91. yeah this was a java file i made though
[09:01] <beni_> !iptables > beni_
[09:01] <mikubuntu_> ok, i've got it downloading in the terminal (i guess)
[09:02] <obf213> thats why im trying to figure out how i saved it as hidden or w/e
[09:02] <madman91> obf213: if you edit a file in a text editor like gedit .. it usually saves a backup
[09:02] <W_McL> bluefox83, no. in /dev there are the devicefiles, but no mountpoints
[09:02] <obf213> ooo k
[09:02] <madman91> obf213: and its usually hidden
[09:02] <obf213> that is
[09:02] <obf213> thats it*
[09:02] <obf213> thansk
[09:02] <madman91> obf213: no problem
[09:02] <sp3000> ramp1: but, I guess you still need to delete sda6 in order to create the ext3 partition in its place, and apparently it won't let you without unmounting it, and it doesn't let you unmount
[09:02] <madman91> ramp1: when you type someones name .. press tab and it will finish it for you
[09:02] <Kjellviz> i aint got OSS sound on Ubuntu, any idea how to get it running ? (ALSA is working fine)
[09:02] <ramp1> sp3000: ok now i am going to choose  root file system ( /) for sda6 i
[09:02] <sp3000> ramp1: what I'd do is reboot and see if it happens to be nut mounted that time around :\
[09:03] <W_McL> bluefox83, in ubuntu the mountpoints for removeable media are usually created in /media
[09:03] <sp3000> ramp1: well, maybe
[09:03] <ramp1> sp3000: ok i will try that...
[09:03] <sp3000> ramp1: oh, btw
[09:04] <tonyT> anybody?  --->Can anybody tell me what package Ubuntu uses for keyboard keybindings? I have a logitech keyboard and some of the multimedia keyboard and a few of the keys are not working. I didn't manually install any package so i assume there is one enabled by default. BTW, this is on Feisty
[09:04] <ramp1> madman91: it does not happened i tried tab!!
[09:04] <mikubuntu_> couldn't find any packages whose name or description matched 'flashplayer-nonfree' ubuntu says
[09:04] <madman91> ramp1: type in madman and press tab
[09:04] <Flannel> !mediakeys | tonyT
[09:04] <ubotu> tonyT: Keyboard shortcuts can be set in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts (Gnome) or "Input Actions" in KControl (KDE). If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try keytouch - http://keytouch.sourceforge.net
[09:04] <ramp1> madman91:
[09:04] <madman91> ramp1: see
[09:04] <sp3000> ramp1: if you choose to go without swap, you can in the partition editor, select from the context menu Format as -> ext3, for sda6 -- sure that'l still require it to not be mounted at the time, but no need to delete and create in that case. though might as well, *shrug*
[09:04] <ramp1> madman91: lol it worked now
[09:04] <madman91> ramp1: and when you type the persons full nick name.. it turns red
[09:04] <alecw1> Is there any way to retrieve a deleted file on Ubuntu (even after trash can delete)
[09:05] <tonyT> Flannel -- not sure what that means
[09:05] <madman91> ramp1: i can see you sent something to me.. very useful
[09:05] <ramp1> madman91: thanks for the tip
[09:05] <ramp1> madman91: what did i send?
[09:05] <madman91> ramp1: no problem, a message
[09:05] <akos_> is there any text-to-speech capability in linux? like $read "Hello there"
[09:05] <akos_> ?
[09:05] <Flannel> tonyT: go to System > PReferences > Keyboard Shortcuts
[09:05] <madman91> ramp1: just a message
[09:05] <D7xk> I enabled output to my tv, and it is an extension off my desktop, but programs often load on the tv screen, I don't want this, how can I make sure programs always load on my lcd screen desktop?
[09:06] <tonyT> ubotu A lot of them are working so i was assuming there is a package that is installed by default. I saw some keytouch files while searching around but wasn't sure if its installed by default
[09:06] <ramp1> sp3000: i am going to restart see u guys later ...thanks for the help
[09:06] <D7xk> I only want the tv for dragging video files over to it
[09:06] <decavolt> Question about mouting NTFS partitions - mine are mounted just fine, and I can read write and delete. I'd like a delete confirmation message when deleting from the NTFS partitions. Right now, it just wacks the file without warning.
[09:06] <ramp1> Flannel: thanks for the help going to restart and see whether ubuntu works!!
[09:07] <umop-apsidn> decavolt: no "send to trash" ?
[09:07] <decavolt> no, that's what's odd
[09:07] <umop-apsidn> hmm
[09:07] <madman91> what?
[09:07] <decavolt> just instant delete, and no trash. Which is scary...
[09:07] <sp3000> decavolt: in what user interface?
[09:07] <madman91> decavolt: gnome?
[09:07] <decavolt> Gnome
[09:08] <sp3000> nautilus?
[09:08] <madman91> decavolt: go to nautilus
[09:08] <decavolt> yep
[09:08] <mikubuntu_> Download done.
[09:08] <mikubuntu_> md5sum mismatch install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz
[09:08] <mikubuntu_> The Flash plugin is NOT installed.
[09:08] <mikubuntu_>  Getting this output now, is there something i need to do to complet the install?
[09:08] <madman91> decavolt: edit preferences
[09:08] <tonyT> Flannel: That's the built in settings, right? Does keytouch override them or do they have to be disabled if keytouch is installed
[09:08] <madman91> decavolt: behavior
[09:08] <sp3000> decavolt: sure it's not got a .Trash lurking somewhere?
[09:08] <j0nas`> what is a good p2p program?
[09:08] <madman91> decavolt: trash
[09:08] <umop-apsidn> mikubuntu_: are you running a 64-bit os?
[09:08] <decavolt> madman91, ah, I see it. And I should be setting that for the entire drive/partition, correct?
[09:09] <sp3000> decavolt: the default behavior I get is trash silently, or warn about unrecoverable delete if can't trash
[09:09] <madman91> decavolt: that setting is what will happen to everything you do with nautilus
[09:09] <decavolt> madman91, good, so it's global.
[09:09] <kawika> umop-apsidn: shouldn't it be "umop-apisdn"
[09:09] <mikubuntu_> umop-apsidn: i have dell latitude 600, running a wubi install of ubuntu .. does that help?
[09:09] <madman91> decavolt: well.. if you ever start up konqueror.. then something else might happen :)
[09:09] <madman91> decavolt: konqueror is the nautilus of kde
[09:09] <decavolt> :) true
[09:10] <madman91> decavolt: and commandline.. rm will still delete
[09:10] <kawika> hehe
[09:10] <decavolt> but I've become pretty partial to naut. Some KDE apps spawn konq though, of course
[09:10] <madman91> decavolt: naturally
[09:10] <umop-apisdn> kawika: as a matter of fact, yes. thank you, and good job on being observant ;)
[09:10] <kawika> umop-apisdn: that's awesome btw...
[09:10] <umop-apisdn> kawika: thanks :)
[09:11] <decavolt> yep, cmd line I'm not so worried about. It's when I'm browsing my NTFS partitions during usual work, I don't want to accidentally wipe, forever, my working files.
[09:11] <decavolt> madman91, looking at my naut prefs -> behavior...  I do when deleting from my linux partitions, just not the NTFS partitions.
[09:12] <Milux> how can i schedule a recorder streaming audio-video?
[09:12] <madman91> decavolt: hm..
[09:12] <MosaSaur> I have a new usb 120 GB usb disk, I want to use it to back up some old win98se and xp computers, then wipe their HD clean and install ubuntu. Question: what FS should I use for the usb backup-disk?
[09:12] <decavolt> madman91, indeed
[09:12] <akos_> is there any text-to-speech capability in linux? like $read "Hello there, this is your computer speaking" ?
[09:12] <madman91> decavolt: do you access your ntfs partitions as a user or as root?
[09:13] <Lunks> how can I access gnome sessions item through failsafe term?
[09:13] <alecw1> Is there ANY WAY to retrieve a deleted file in Ubuntu?
[09:13] <decavolt> madman91, as a user, I don't run as root
[09:13] <rjb> NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed out
[09:13] <rjb> - what could be causing that error?
[09:13] <madman91> decavolt: .. I'm boggled.. ask again in this chat
[09:13] <Flannel> akos_: there are a few, check out festival
[09:13] <umop-apisdn> alecw1: if you killed it from the trashcan? uhm... well, there's data recovery services, and i would suggest you shut down *NOW* to avoid overwriting the data...
[09:13] <decavolt> madman91, would it help if I pastebin'd my fstab for you?
[09:14] <decavolt> madman91, cool, thanks for trying :)
[09:14] <akos_> Flannel, thx
[09:14] <umop-apisdn> alecw1: other than that... how are you with a hex editor?
[09:14] <madman91> decavolt: i do what little I can
[09:14] <alecw1> umop-apisdn: It's on my desktop, already shut down. Not good at all.
[09:14] <alecw1> Isn't there a program like "Time machien" on the mac?
[09:14] <Jordan_U> alecw1, What did you delete?
[09:14] <decavolt> Question about mouting NTFS partitions - mine are mounted just fine, and I can read write and delete. I'd like a delete confirmation message when deleting from the NTFS partitions. Right now, it just wacks the file without warning.
[09:15] <umop-apisdn> alecw1: how much is/are the file(s) worth to you? i think there's a place in houston, tx that does guaranteed data recovery... 1500USD, tho... *minimum*
[09:15] <alecw1> Just a word document I created for school, on accident. 5+ pages, due on monday.
[09:15] <alecw1> :(
[09:15] <Jordan_U> alecw1, There may be a backup
[09:15] <alecw1> I've checked.
[09:15] <umop-apisdn> aw, dude... that sucks. i feel for you.
[09:16] <Milux>  how can i schedule a recorder streaming audio-video?
[09:16] <alecw1> umop-apisdn: There is no way at all?
[09:16] <madman91> well look at the bright side
[09:16] <Lunks> can someone check which command i can use to open sessions manager on gnome, please? =)
[09:16] <umop-apisdn> alecw1: if it's not in the trash can, then you're pretty much screwed. better start rewriting it...
[09:16] <umop-apisdn> alecw1: the other option i can think of is to use a hex editor to try and find it on the disk
[09:16] <madman91> Lunks: do you mean system-->preferences-->sessions?
[09:16] <umop-apisdn> alecw1: but as for the exact method... unsure.
[09:16] <Lunks> yes, madman91q
[09:16] <Lunks> I have to remove fusion-icon from it
[09:17] <alecw1> umop-apisdn: Arg. That sucks bad.
[09:17] <Lunks> it's hanging ubuntu
[09:17] <riaal> how do I delete a line of text in pico or nano?
[09:17] <umop-apisdn> alecw1: you might see if you can locate a hex editor, and then open the drive with it, then do a search for a text string you know exists in the file
[09:17] <rjb> it's pretty tough to undelete on ext3
[09:17] <madman91> Lunks: i dont know the command but i can find it
[09:17] <Lunks> yes, it's pretty easy if you can access gnome =P
[09:17] <umop-apisdn> you might be able to copy/paste the text back out... you'll prolly lose formatting
[09:17] <Lunks> just edit menu and look for it
[09:17] <alecw1> there is no GUI easy way? I mean, it was literally deleted minutes ago
[09:17] <Jordan_U> Lunks, gnome-session-properties
[09:17] <Palimpsest> hmm, anybody know, when i can find (download) women voice, for use in system sound? something like permission denied etc?
[09:17] <Lunks> thanks a lot!@
[09:17] <umop-apisdn> and if it's not a straight .txt, you may not be able to find anything, anyway... ever opened a word document in notepad?
[09:17] <rjb> on ext2 it was no big deal, there were scripts to undelete files
[09:18] <Lunks> hopefully i'll be back soon =)
[09:18] <alecw1> on gedit, yes. By word, I meant open office
[09:18] <alecw1> saved as .doc
[09:18] <umop-apisdn> alecw1: once you kill it from the trash can, i don't know of an "easy" way to get it back
[09:18] <umop-apisdn> .doc files typically aren't plain text
[09:18] <teer2> Could someone with Firefox & Totem plug-in take a look at this page, and tell me if it works for them?  http://metavid.ucsc.edu/wiki_dev/mv_embed/sample_page.php
[09:18] <alecw1> umop-apisdn: shit. :(
[09:18] <Jordan_U> alecw1, What directory did you save it too?
[09:18] <madman91> teer2: on it
[09:18] <umop-apisdn> alecw1: my thoughts exactly, but someone may be able to help you
[09:19] <alecw1> documents/
[09:19] <madman91> teer2: which one should i click on?
[09:19] <ramirex> hello
[09:19] <Kevin4381> can't find much documentation on this; my sound cuts out completely (goes silent, no sound in any app) and at random times (when using sound).
[09:19] <Jordan_U> alecw1, ls -a ~/documents
[09:19] <teer2> madman91: The idea is to see if either the top and or bottom videos work.
[09:19] <madman91> teer2: top is working
[09:19] <teer2> madman91: For me, only the top does.
[09:19] <Jordan_U> alecw1, There may be a backup that is just a hidden file
[09:19] <madman91> teer2: ok.. let me try bottom
[09:19] <teer2> madman91: You might have to reload.  Or even restart (if you can)
[09:19] <rjb> aptitude show e2undel
[09:20] <umop-apisdn> oh, hey... there might be a document.doc~ backup file
[09:20] <teer2> madman91: *restart the browser
[09:20] <madman91> teer2: bottom works as well
[09:20] <teer2> madman91: Really!
[09:20] <madman91> teer2: for me it does
[09:20] <teer2> madman91: Can you play them both at the same time?
[09:20] <apocalypti> whats the thing that is in the upper-right on the status bar that displays programs that are running in the background?
[09:20] <madman91> teer2: no
[09:20] <madman91> teer2: only top or only bottom
[09:20] <mikubuntu_> umop-apisdn: you axed: mikubuntu_: are you running a 64-bit os?  i'm not sure, how do i find out?  i have a dell lattitide 600, running a wubi install of ubuntu .. ?
[09:21] <alecw1> I FOUND IT! OMG!!!! Yeah, hidden file. Looks like the one I saved last too!!!! Just opened it up in Openoffice, looks great. holy crap... I love this channel. Thanks so much Jordan_U and umop-apisdn. A stroke of good luck!
[09:21] <teer2> madman91: What does you "about:plugins" say for OGG ?  Is it being run by Totem 2.18.1 ?
[09:21] <umop-apisdn> mikubuntu_: sorry, i don't know what a wubi is.. nor do i know how to determine what version of an os you are running
[09:21] <madman91> teer2: its being run by java
[09:21] <umop-apisdn> alecw1: glad to be of help. good luck with your homework
[09:22] <alecw1> umop-apisdn: heh, thanks again. :) And you, Jordan_U. :)
[09:22] <teer2> madman91: Ah, okay - I need to figure out what package it is so I can install it.  Thanks for your help.
[09:22] <umop-apisdn> alecw1: make sure you're certain you want to delete the trash, next time, k?
[09:22] <madman91> teer2: sure
[09:22] <umop-apisdn> hehe
[09:22] <alecw1> heh.
[09:23] <apocalypti> whats the thing that is in the upper-right on the status bar that displays programs that are running in the background?
[09:23] <Kevin4381> can't find much documentation on this; my sound cuts out completely (goes silent, no sound in any app) and at random times (when using sound).
[09:23] <mikubuntu_> getting this output from terminal: Download done.
[09:23] <mikubuntu_> md5sum mismatch install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz
[09:23] <mikubuntu_> The Flash plugin is NOT installed.
[09:23] <mikubuntu_>   can anyone tell me what to do next to complete install???
[09:23] <Kevin4381> I have everything set to autodetect in the sound prefs and multimedia systems selector
[09:23] <rampy> sp3000: hey i am back..i am not able to make swap space but this time i did get unmount option and also the circle (with cross across) was not dim
[09:24] <Kevin4381> why does the sound quit on me??
[09:24] <Kevin4381> it comes back after a few minutes
[09:24] <umop-apisdn> mikubuntu_: looks like a bad download. md5sum is a checksum
[09:24] <rampy> sp3000: when i finally installed it said no swap space and nothing happened
[09:24] <umop-apisdn> mikubuntu_: you might try redownloading the package
[09:24] <rampy> sp3000: do i need to restart/?
[09:25] <rampy> sp3000: or ubuntu does it automatically like windows
[09:25] <sp3000> rampy: what said no swap space?
[09:25] <sp3000> rampy: when did nothing happen, nad what flavor of nothing
[09:25] <ramza3> I was trying to test a web application but dont have IE, is there a browser that is closest to IE, opera maybe?  or other browser I can install with ubuntu
[09:25] <Kevin4381> anybody know why my sound stops working all the time?
[09:25] <jamesdell> ramza3: firefox
[09:25] <sp3000> that reminds me, I should set up some vm thingage to run that evil browser
[09:26] <ramza3> jamesdell, besides firefox, dingbat
[09:26] <rampy> sp3000: nothing happened in the sense when i said install finally...i got pop up window ..failed to create swap space
[09:26] <jamesdell> ramza3: konqueror, mozilla
[09:26] <decavolt> Ok, looking deeper - Nautilus preferences -> behavior has "Ask before emptying trash or deleting files" checked, but I am not getting a prompt/confirmation when deleting files from either linux or ntfs partitions.
[09:26] <ramza3> jamesdell, ok, thanks
[09:26] <sp3000> ramza3: I guess konqueror should be close enough to safari
[09:26] <rampy> sp3000: and then the instillation window  just closed
[09:26] <ramza3> sp3000, even though I dont have KDE?
[09:27] <riaal> Is there some way to make mouted folders not apear in the desktop?
[09:27] <sp3000> ramza3: but nothing with IE's questionable particular awesomenesses I guess except for itself
[09:27] <ramza3> sp3000, I dont need kde, do I?
[09:27] <sp3000> ramza3: konqueror will pull in some libs with it sure, but no you don't need kde
[09:27] <eddie> Does anyone know where I can find a .mov codec for totem?

[09:28] <decavolt> riaal, If you're using Gnome, you can set that in your Config editior (should be available from your Gnome menu)
[09:28] <Kevin4381> anybody know why my sound stops working all the time?
[09:28] <decavolt> riaal, system -> administration -> config editor
[09:28] <ramza3> sp3000, hmmm 45mb download, something tells me this is a bad idea
[09:29] <sp3000> ramza3: why?
[09:29] <ramza3> sp3000, shrug
[09:29] <suprchris> I need help upgrading ubuntu from breezy.
[09:29] <sp3000> I mean unless you're paying by the megabyte or something
[09:29] <DrSavage> is there any good howto on setting up a ircd server on ubuntu?
[09:29] <rampy> sp3000: should i delete the sda6 partion?
[09:29] <sp3000> ramza3: I consider it good practice to test sites with everything I can :)
[09:29] <Vsop_vsop_vsop_v> hey folks... i asked this b4 but i am asking again... whats the deal with connecting to a voice server on yahoo in ubuntu??
[09:29] <sp3000> rampy: so hm. you got sda6 changed to or replaced by an ext3 partition, and the installation actually did something like show you a progress bar for some minutes and stuff?
[09:29] <ramza3> sp3000, I dont know just havent installed anything kde related hope it doesnt mess up my system or anything
[09:30] <rampy> sp3000:nope nothing
[09:30] <sp3000> ramza3: shouldn't mess up anything
[09:30] <sp3000> rampy: so I guess it didn't like not having a swap partition
[09:30] <JoelleLam> has anyone had any luck IRC setting up jpackage on ubuntu?
[09:30] <mari> hallo
[09:30] <rampy> sp3000: i guess now i back to orginal screen though not i get option of unmount and delete
[09:30] <sp3000> rampy: so if you can go and delete the sda6 partition and create a 1GB or so swap and an ext3 in the remaining space there, it should like that better
[09:31] <rampy> sp3000: ok..
[09:31] <sp3000> rampy: ehm. I wonder why it gets confused about the unmount
[09:31] <sp3000> rebooting is so boring
[09:31] <rampy> sp3000: i know
[09:31] <mari> sprich hier jemand deutsch

[09:32] <tonyT> slightly different question, what file are the keyboard shortcuts stored in? I'm about to butcher them but would like to make a backup
[09:32] <rampy> sp3000: BTW  if i delete it what will happen of that space?
[09:32] <underdog5004> I've looked in the man page, but I can't figure it out. How can I get tar to not follow symlinks?
[09:32] <decavolt> ok, so shift-delete gives me the "are you sure" prompt. Any way to make that the default without the shift modifier?
[09:32] <Vsop_vsop_vsop_v> does anyone have thoughts on the voice chat for yahoo on ubuntu??
[09:32] <gunilla> Har nyss brjat med Ubuntu, ser fint ut, vill ha kontakt med er som arbetar med Video o animationer. Anvnder ni ubuntustudio? Jag har laddat hem det och brnnt p CD-skiva men datorn vill ej boota frn den nr jag startar om, har d tips? GG
[09:32] <sp3000> rampy: when you delete sda6 it should show up as an "unallocated" row, and then you can create the necessary partitions there
[09:32] <vas> hey I have installed ubuntu server

[09:34] <gunilla> OK  anybody working with Ubuntustudio ???GG
[09:34] <sp3000> rampy: and you might want to delete the tiny sda8 thing if it's still lurking there :)
[09:34] <stefg> !anyone
[09:34] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[09:34] <piti> vas : look at /etc/hostname
[09:34] <sebas_> vas: #ubuntu-server ?
[09:34] <underdog5004> I've looked in the man page, but I can't figure it out. How can I get tar to not follow symlinks?
[09:34] <underdog5004> or just to ignore them?
[09:34] <gumpish> hmmm, I'm trying to transfer a large file (3 GB) from my 7.04 machine to a Mac. It seems to get corrupted during transfer (md5 sums are different). I've tried SMB and scp, the resulting files are corrupted in a consistent manner.
[09:35] <vas> sebas: thnx didnt know bout that channel
[09:35] <sebas_> vas: me neither, I just hopped it existed ;)
[09:35] <sp3000> gunilla: #ubuntustudio probably does
[09:35] <Jordan_U> gumpish, What kind of file?
[09:35] <riaal> decavolt, can't find the "config editor"? =S
[09:35] <rampy> sp3000: should i keep other drives as media
[09:35] <gumpish> Jordan_U: a .dmg disk image
[09:36] <decavolt> riaal, it may not be in your Gnome menu, but it's there. One sec
[09:36] <Jordan_U> gumpish, OSx may be adding some meta-data to it or something
[09:36] <gumpish> :o
[09:36] <sp3000> rampy: well the /media/sdX are generic suggestions that work
[09:36] <zerokill88> can anyone help me connect use my cellphone for a modem. ive tried wvdial and seem to have it configured right but no luck. or if you know of another modem software that works let me know
[09:36] <decavolt> riaal, right-click on your gnome menu and choose Edit Menus
[09:36] <sp3000> rampy: I like to make my windows partitions /C /D etc. so they match with the windows letters
[09:36] <gunilla> sp3000 Did not understand once again GG
[09:37] <stefg> !ubuntustudio
[09:37] <decavolt> riaal, look around in there, put a check in the box next to Config Editor, save and close, then look in your menu and it'll be there.

[09:37] <decavolt> riaal, it's just hidden (by default, I believe)
[09:37] <craigbass1976> How do I send kinky messages to my wife on another computer with xmessage?
[09:37] <rampy> sp3000: so i won't require to  format it i guess by changing the name
[09:37] <decavolt> craigbass1976, IM, email...
[09:38] <Jack_Sparrow> underdog5004: I didnt think it followed the link, just copied the symlink
[09:38] <gunilla> sp3000 How do I get to the Ubuntustudiochannel??? GG
[09:38] <craigbass1976> decavolt, no, xmessage.  I was looking for immediate, and she doesn't IM
[09:38] <PriceChild> gunilla, /join #ubuntustudio
[09:38] <underdog5004> Jack_Sparrow, oh...maybe it does...I'm not totally sure, tbh
[09:38] <decavolt> craigbass1976, I know, just giving you some $#!t :)
[09:38] <tonyT>  what file are the keyboard shortcuts stored in? I'm about to butcher them but would like to make a backup
[09:38] <sp3000> rampy: the part where it suggests the /media/... foo is just naming where the partitions should appear on your system
[09:38] <craigbass1976> ok. :)
[09:38] <gunilla> PriceChild How??  GG
[09:38] <PriceChild> gunilla, type that
[09:38] <Nutubuntu> gumpish,  can you determine whether the corruption is taking place *on* the destination computer or *during* the transfer? For example, burn a dvd, checksum it, copy the file from the dvd to the destination, checksum the copy ... ?
[09:38] <Jack_Sparrow> underdog5004: Make a folder, put in a symlink and then tar that folder and I think you get only the link not what the link points to
[09:39] <decavolt> craigbass1976, There isn't an option in the man page?
[09:39] <craigbass1976> decavolt, can't open display, but :0.0 isn't working
[09:39] <osxdude|la1> gunilla, what client?
[09:39] <sp3000> rampy: yeah you don't want to reformat the partitions that have windows or data on them :)
[09:39] <rampy> sp3000: finally working!!!
[09:39] <riaal> decavolt, mine is on a different language, can't find anything that would match "config editor" can you check the console command for it?

[09:39] <pit1> some to help me setting up a creative audigy 2 zs usb ?
[09:39] <rampy> sp3000: i got a pop window
[09:39] <decavolt> riaal, try gconf-editor
[09:39] <decavolt> riaal, at the cmd line
[09:39] <rampy> sp3000: The attempt to mount a file system with type ntfs in SCSI1 (0,0,0), partition #5 (sda) at /C failed.

[09:40] <rampy> sp3000: it my C drive (windows)
[09:41] <sp3000> rampy: yeah, more like where in the ui and whose ui
[09:41] <rampy> sp30
[09:41] <riaal> Can I do something to fstab to make some mounts not show on the desktop?
[09:41] <decavolt> riaal, should be under system tools or administration
[09:41] <rampy> sp3000: i didn't get it
[09:41] <rampy> sp3000:  UI?
[09:41] <Dsbeerf> Hello i really need help, how i can make grub rebuilt a menu.lst ?
[09:42] <sp3000> rampy: if this is the partition editor, you may not be able to change maunt points since they don't exist; if this is the partition selector thing I'd expect it to not be mounting them at that time
[09:42] <decavolt> riaal, fstab doesn't effect where they show up
[09:42] <stefg> riaal: don't mount to subdirs of /media
[09:42] <sp3000> nor should you need to change mount points in the partition editor for the windows partitions, just the partition selector
[09:42] <rjb> Dsbeerf: update-grub
[09:43] <rampy> sp3000: i frankly didn't get the stuff..should i go back and make some changes?
[09:43] <riaal> stefg, I didn't but when I use fstab to specify the mount whit noauto and then mount then they show anyway
[09:43] <suprchris> I can't upgrade from breezy... Help?
[09:43] <rampy> sp3000: or should i continue
[09:43] <gunilla> ubuntustudiochannel???
[09:43] <sp3000> rampy: ui = user interface. what I mean is I don't know where you are so I don't know why it's telling you that
[09:43] <jetscreamer> update-grub is becoming deprecated btw iirc
[09:43] <sp3000> and whether it's relevant, even
[09:43] <rampy> sp30
[09:43] <JoelleLam> I am trying to setup jpackage, but once I add rpm to my sources.list it does not recognize rpm.   Any suggestions?
[09:44] <rampy> sp3000:  do u want to resume partitining?
[09:44] <nickrud> suprchris, you need to go  dapper->edgy->feisty; it'd be easier & faster to reinstall
[09:44] <olive> gunilla: #ubuntustudio
[09:44] <Dsbeerf> jetscreamer, if is deprecated what i should use then ?
[09:44] <nickrud> jetscreamer, what's replacing it
[09:44] <rampy> sp3000: The attempt to mount a file system with type ntfs in SCSI1 (0,0,0), partition #5 (sda) at /C failed.
[09:44] <jetscreamer> Dsbeerf: becoming, as in soon, not yet
[09:44] <sp3000> rampy: yeah you did say that
[09:44] <jetscreamer> Dsbeerf: not sure, it said though
[09:44] <Dsbeerf> well i did but my windows installation still not in menu.lst
[09:44] <gunilla> Olive I saw yoy sign but where do I type it in??  GG
[09:44] <sp3000> rampy: but I don't know what's around that
[09:45] <sp3000> rampy: more screenshots I suppose
[09:45] <rampy> sp3000: the top line says : do you want to resume partitioning?
[09:45] <nickrud> Dsbeerf, I have a stanza you can put in grub for windows; what partition is your windows on?
[09:45] <olive> gunilla: just type /join #ub...
[09:45] <riaal> I don't want an Icon on the desktop for my nfs mounted folders, any sugestions? (the are not mounted in /media)

[09:45] <sp3000> rampy: sure but I don't know the answer to that without context
[09:45] <lemling> that is awsome
[09:45] <Dsbeerf> nickrud, is /sda1
[09:46] <rampy> sp3000: hmm lol
[09:46] <sp3000> rampy: I know what that means but not why it's trying, without more context
[09:46] <Jack_Sparrow> JoelleLam:  Are you trying to use RPM's.. sorry if I came into the conversation late
[09:46] <nickrud> Dsbeerf, paste this at the end of menu.lst then: http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/38380
[09:47] <JoelleLam> Jack_Sparrow?  Actually, my ultimate goal is simply to download nbjunit.  I was told that if I setup jpackage I can "apt-get install nbjunit".

[09:50] <VSG1990> could someone help me get my direct rendering to work
[09:51] <JoelleLam>  Jack_Sparrow: According to the jpackage site, it says to add  line items such as "rpm ....". I have "rpm" in /usr/bin/rpm, but I get the feeling that it is something different.  The jpackage setup instructions are here http://jpackage.org/apt.php.
[09:51] <osxdude|la1> Mahrellon. Load up recovery mode instead
[09:51] <Jack_Sparrow> !rpm
[09:51] <ubotu> RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[09:51] <sldkfj> Mahrellon, open the .berylmanagerrc file and set things to 0
[09:51] <nickrud> riaal, open gconf-editor and navigate to apps/nautilus/desktop, and unselect network_icons_visible
[09:51] <VSG1990> could someone help me get my direct rendering to work
[09:51] <Mahrellon> sldkfj; Thanks m8! =D
[09:51] <sldkfj> sudo nano ~/.berylmanagerrc
[09:52] <Jack_Sparrow> rampy: is that 5th partition a primary partition rather than a partition inside an extended partition
[09:52] <Jack_Sparrow> rampy: I probably phrased that wrong
[09:52] <Davy_Jhones> rampy left

[09:53] <JoelleLam> ubotu: I would rather use apt.  I thought the whole point of modifying sources.list is simply to add another repository.  In fact the directions that tell me to add rpm are titled "Apt".
[09:53] <Mahrellon> Brb, need to test it. :)

[09:53] <JoelleLam> Jack_Sparrow you may want to look at my last comment too.
[09:53] <VSG1990> stefg: I have an ATI Radeon X1300 PCIe card, and I just upgraded the driver to 8.38.7, which is the latest version and that let me change my screen resolution to the proper size, but it still doesn't have direct rendering
[09:53] <nickrud> riaal, odd then. The reason I took so long is I fired up gconf-editor and tested it; it worked here
[09:54] <mahrellon> It worked! Cheers again m8. :D

[09:57] <nickrud> riaal, that's different, it should show since it gets mounted in /media (as you noted earlier :)
[09:57] <ghosts> I have a USB headset, i have all the sound going to it and it works fine if i play the sound locally, but and sound coming over the internet like internet radio or flash based sounds do not play on the headset, what can i do to fix that?

[09:57] <JoelleLam> Jack_Sparrow: Is there another way around it to use jpackage?  Why does it have directions for "rpm" on the "apt" site?

[09:58] <Varsendaggr> Hey i need to use a debian source for apt-get...   how do i do taht?
[09:58] <ShackJack> stefg: Dunno if !dvd was directed at me, but it doesn't sem to address the question (?)
[09:58] <Varsendaggr> that
[09:58] <shinynew> hey Iam having some troble with conky right now, Whenever a window is moved over the text it has to wait to be redrawn before reappearing, is there any way to fix that?
[09:58] <Nutubuntu> !br
[09:58] <ubotu> Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt  para ajuda em portugus. Obrigado.
[09:58] <Jack_Sparrow> JoelleLam: I didnt see anythin on the first link you gave showing that it works with debian or ubuntu.. Did I miss something?
[09:58] <Varsendaggr> it is in the form http://packages.debian.org/stable/libdevel/
[09:59] <stefg> ShackJack: i was just fishing (and missed). I'd try vlc
[09:59] <ShackJack> stefg: :)
[09:59] <JoelleLam> Jack_Sparrow: You mean you didn't anything related to "apt"?
[10:00] <ShackJack> Just asking for a friend, whose totally new to Ubuntu, and I don't do much editing... but he basically wants to rip the audio track off of a DVD to record on a CD... If any one can suggest a proggie, that'd be great... I'll check out VLC (I have installed)
[10:00] <Jack_Sparrow> JoelleLam: I found this in the ubuntu repos..   utilities for the JPackage Project
[10:01] <Veen> I am having trouble running Frostwire on a 64-bit machine? Any ideas?
[10:01] <Jack_Sparrow> Not sure if it is in universe or multiverse as I have those enabled..
[10:02] <abcd3212> Is there any way to completely restore ubuntu without reinstalling it?
[10:02] <JoelleLam> Jack_Sparrow: Is it jpackage-utils?  I believe I already have that, but for some reason it does not work.  I am not able to call the "apt-get install nbjunit".  Or is there something else that you are seeing?
[10:02] <ShackJack> abcd3212: Restore what, exactly?
[10:03] <abcd3212> ShackJack, As it was when it was just installed
[10:03] <pit1> (usb-soundcard trouble) I've post the output of dmesg. I think a part of the problem is here : http://www.pastebin.ca/628938
[10:03] <stefg> abcd3212: not really. it's more work to do that than to just reinstall
[10:04] <ShackJack> abcd3212: No, not really, I mean you can install the main meta packages, ubuntu-desktop ubuntu-minimal ubuntu standard, but any other proggie you've installed since then, etc... will remain.... Or you could try a purge/reinstall :)
[10:04] <abcd3212> Hmm, I see
[10:04] <ShackJack> abcd3212: Just a tip, I always make a separate partition for my /home dir, so reinstalls/upgrades are a breeze :)
[10:05] <ShackJack> abcd3212: Are you trying to fix something or justlike Ubuntu the way is was?
[10:05] <stefg> !backup | abcd3212
[10:05] <ubotu> abcd3212: There are many ways to back your system up.

[10:05] <Thunderhit> is there a log like that lists which packages I installed/deinstalled using the ubuntu packet manager?
[10:05] <Jack_Sparrow> JoelleLam: Not seeing anything other than what I copied from synaptic.. All I see on their site are rpm's and I already had the bot tell you about deb's vs rpm's
[10:05] <southafrikanse> How can I see my terminal log?
[10:05] <abcd3212> Well, Im trying to fix something. For every program I install I get an error message saying "E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[10:06] <bulmer> Thunderhit, yes it has, the dpkg uses somekind of database..but i dont the name of it and which files are the databases
[10:06] <stefg> abcd3212: sudo apt-get -f install
[10:06] <nickrud> southafrikanse, what do you mean by 'terminal log' ?
[10:06] <abcd3212> stefg, Same thing happened now
[10:07] <ShackJack> abcd3212: Yeah, that's just dependency BS you can work aorund - don't reinstall -- that's the Windows way :P
[10:07] <shinynew> Is there any small app that is simply the system panel/tray?
[10:07] <southafrikanse> nickrud: I wrote a command in the terminal yesterday. And I want to see what I wrote
[10:07] <abcd3212> Haha
[10:07] <stefg> abcd3212: so what error ? (you left the interesting part out)
[10:07] <ShackJack> abcd3212: Did you try synaptic package mgr and "fix broken packages:
[10:07] <nickrud> southafrikanse, hit ctl-r , and type part of the command
[10:07] <bulmer> southafrikanse, try  man history
[10:07] <abcd3212> Something about --configure
[10:08] <abcd3212> cp cant take status on /etc/inittab
[10:08] <NigelS> abcd3212: dpkg --configure -a maybe?
[10:08] <stefg> abcd3212: no not something about ... a prcise mesaage plz
[10:08] <abcd3212> It's in swedish :P
[10:08] <nickrud> abcd3212, yeah, put it on a pastebin, the whole thing, anyway.
[10:08] <abcd3212> Alrighty
[10:08] <Jack_Sparrow> Better and complete questions make for better answers
[10:09] <stefg> abcd3212: paste it to !pastebin

[10:10] <stefg> !find libpq5
[10:10] <ubotu> Found: libpq5
[10:10] <nickrud> the problem is, there is no /etc/inittab
[10:11] <abcd3212> Should I just create a folder named that then?
[10:11] <nickrud> abcd3212, no ...
[10:11] <stefg> !upstart | abcd3212
[10:11] <ubotu> abcd3212: Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model.  For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/
[10:11] <Dsbeerf> someone can tell me the difference between beryl and compiz ?
[10:12] <bulmer> nickrud, that upstart is for you really
[10:12] <stefg> abcd3212: sudo apt-get remove --purge runit
[10:12] <ShackJack> Dsbeerf: Beryl is being remerged to compiz (fusion) so they will soon have the same features... check out #compiz-fusion for more deets...
[10:13] <nickrud> bulmer, yes, I know of it. But libpq5 doesn't
[10:13] <sldkfj> Dsbeerf, beryl is dead, compiz-fusion is the latest
[10:13] <nickrud> bulmer, abcd3212 looking at bug reports
[10:13] <bulmer> ok
[10:13] <sldkfj> Dsbeerf, visit #compiz-fusion  at your leisure
[10:13] <Dsbeerf> ok
[10:14] <ge2x> how to see who is the dir's owner?
[10:14] <Dsbeerf> compiz-fusion = 3d cube or is beryl ?
[10:14] <alecw1> both.
[10:14] <sldkfj> yeah same thing essentiall
[10:14] <sldkfj> essentially
[10:14] <abcd3212> stefg, that worked! What did it do?
[10:14] <PriceChild> Dsbeerf, beryl is now compiz fusion
[10:14] <PriceChild> Dsbeerf, compiz is still compiz
[10:14] <ge2x> how to see who is the dir's owner?
[10:15] <stefg> abcd3212: remove runit, which doesn't work with upstart
[10:15] <Dsbeerf> so if i want to 3d cube that rotate what i have to install ?
[10:15] <zdzichu_> compiz and beryl are now compiz fusion
[10:15] <abcd3212> I see :-) Well, thanks a bunch!
[10:15] <sldkfj> compiz basic cube while fusion is plugin loaded
[10:15] <PriceChild> zdzichu_, compiz is the core, compiz fusion (beryl) is a set of other plugins
[10:15] <PriceChild> Dsbeerf, ask in #ubuntu-effects
[10:15] <ge2x> how to see who is the dir's owner?

[10:16] <NETWizz> what is the best Dock for Gnome
[10:16] <shinynew> sldkfj: I am sorry for some reason it switched my input method and it took some time to switch it back. I want a small floating app that is only the system tray, like where notifications and such come up. is there any app that does just that
[10:16] <sldkfj> zdzichu_, you can get compiz with the desktop effects in the system menu,  compiz-fusion has a channel to assist
[10:16] <sldkfj> shinynew, Ubuntu (Gnome) can give you things to insert onto the taskbar a 'notification area' and a 'system monitor' applet...... right click on the taskbar and select 'add to panel'
[10:17] <j0nas`> has anyone gotten their suspend function to work?
[10:17] <VSG1990> stefg: I used the BinaryDriverHowtoATI but it still does not work
[10:17] <j0nas`> is there a post on it anywhere?
[10:17] <shinynew> sldkfj:no see I want it with a panel
[10:17] <sldkfj> shinynew, is that close enough?
[10:17] <Veen> Does anyone know how to access a windows computer's shared files?
[10:18] <sldkfj> like a desktop image
[10:18] <shinynew> sldkfj: while I am running ubunutu I am using openbox, on a slow computer, all I want from the panel is the system tray, where can I find something to give me JUST that
[10:18] <stefg> VSG1990: ATI is a pita to get to work on linux, and knowing how hard atis driver suck, i don't touch tem with 10 ft. poles. So i just don't know, but there are ati guys around here
[10:19] <VSG1990> stefg: ok, thanks
[10:19] <Veen> Does anyone know how to access a windows computer's shared files?
[10:19] <sldkfj> I forget what I used in the past, it's been a while.  what is it cronky or something
[10:19] <Guest56044343> can you change up like a very little bit, then sell it
[10:20] <limteer> Freenx Windows client when connecting to Feisty, shutsdown after initial screen splash, can anyone help?
[10:20] <VSG1990> can anyone tell me what this means? Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
[10:20] <Subhuman> VSG1990, you dont have DRI enabled
[10:20] <sldkfj> shinynew, cronky will put system info on the desktop for you
[10:20] <NETWizz> NO
[10:20] <NETWizz> suspend never works
[10:21] <VSG1990> Subhuman: how would I enable it?
[10:21] <shinynew> sldkfj, I have conky, but it will not pop up and alert me of things.
[10:21] <ge2x> how to see who is the dir's owner?
[10:21] <ProN00b> hmm, anyone knows how i can invert screen colour ?
[10:21] <stefg> !info conky
[10:21] <ubotu> conky: highly configurable system monitor for X based on torsmo. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.4.5-0ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 123 kB, installed size 416 kB
[10:21] <sldkfj> what's that other one something called krellem
[10:22] <linux_newbie2> ge2x: if you are using the gnome file manager, right click on the file and go to properties
[10:22] <sldkfj> gkrellm
[10:22] <VSG1990> how do I enable DRI for my video card ?
[10:22] <C-{pR0F> sldkfj, There is some processes that crash , and i can't kill them from the sysyem monitor , and i tried the "sudo kill -9 pid" and it didn't work , anyway to terminate them ,, their status is Uninterruptible  !!!!!
[10:23] <ge2x> linux_newbie2: no i need through command line
[10:23] <Subhuman> VSG1990, if you run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" go through the options and one will ask you to enable modules-  select DRI in that list."
[10:23] <linux_newbie2> ge2x: if in the command line, do ls -o, and it is the third column
[10:23] <Subhuman> ge2x, run "ls -l" to see owners.
[10:23] <linux_newbie2> can anyone help me install a raw printer in cups?
[10:23] <VSG1990> Subhuman: ok i will try that
[10:23] <ge2x> thnx
[10:23] <sldkfj> shinynew, look into     gkrellm
[10:23] <shinynew> sldkfj thanks
[10:24] <sldkfj> C-{pR0F, wouldn't know,  you need someone more technical than I
[10:24] <C-{pR0F> sldkfj: and do u know that one ?
[10:24] <stefg> VSG1990: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/3299
[10:25] <sldkfj> C-{pR0F, nope, I'm not that far along in the book yet  tbh
[10:26] <NETWizz> I cannot get my computer to suspend and wake up
[10:26] <shinynew> sldkfj well thanks for that, but that doesn't seem to have anything about the system tray, just various stats
[10:26] <NETWizz> I use the nvidia driver
[10:26] <NETWizz> is it bugged
[10:26] <hexstar> NETWizz: how old is your computer? have you flashed the bios?
[10:26] <NETWizz> no
[10:26] <NETWizz> I haven't
[10:26] <NETWizz> suspend works fine in xp
[10:26] <NETWizz> It is a 3200+
[10:26] <hexstar> how old is your computer?
[10:26] <PriceChild> NETWizz, the binary nvidia driver?
[10:26] <NETWizz> 1 GB Ram
[10:26] <hexstar> oh
[10:27] <VSG1990> stefg: thanks
[10:27] <PriceChild> NETWizz, as in from restricted drivers manager?
[10:27] <NETWizz> Motherboard is K8T890-A ECS Junk
[10:27] <PriceChild> NETWizz, or envy, automatix, nvidia.com etc.
[10:27] <hexstar> NETWizz: I would try flashing, could be a linux+bios incompatibility, never hurts
[10:27] <NETWizz> nvidia.com
[10:27] <PriceChild> hexstar, no
[10:27] <hexstar> PriceChild: what do you mean?
[10:27] <PriceChild> NETWizz, that is one of the bad things about binary kernel modules
[10:27] <NETWizz> NVIDIA-Linux-x86-100.14.11-pkg1.run
[10:27] <NETWizz> I know
[10:27] <NETWizz> I also run NDISWrapper
[10:27] <NETWizz> Sorry
[10:27] <NETWizz> I know it is kind of yuckey
[10:28] <hexstar> PriceChild: he said he cannot suspend, that is heavily relient on bios functionality...I think it would be a good idea to try flashing the bios
[10:28] <NETWizz> Why can't Nvidia release their source
[10:28] <NETWizz> hum
[10:28] <PriceChild> hexstar, "and wake up"
[10:28] <NETWizz> It suspends fine
[10:28] <NETWizz> it doens't wake up
[10:28] <Lunks> My gnome-sessions is broken now, and it doesn't start the programs there anymore =\
[10:28] <C-{pR0F> PriceChild: There is some processes that crash , and i can't kill them from the sysyem monitor , and i tried the "sudo kill -9 pid" and it didn't work , anyway to terminate them ,, their status is Uninterruptible  !!!!!
[10:28] <PriceChild> C-{pR0F, what app?
[10:28] <PriceChild> NETWizz, but i'd be willing to bet the nvidia driver is stopping it
[10:29] <stefg> NETWizz: known issue, nvidia forums are full of complaints
[10:29] <NETWizz> Does the Nvidia driver support suspend?
[10:29] <Jack_Sparrow> hexstar: Flashing the bios should be a last resort and only to fix known problems..  Mplayer just stopped working and i don't know why!
[10:30] <C-{pR0F> PriceChild: The problem is that i keep making kill , but it doesn't work , and i can't reboot , cuz i'm upgrading
[10:30] <NETWizz> Probably doesn't help that I have AIGLX with a dozen added xorg plugins
[10:30] <NETWizz> or that I run Beryl too
[10:30] <rjb> i never got suspend to disk to work, what does it take?
[10:30] <hexstar> NETWizz: some video cards just aren't compatible with *nix no matte how hard you try, try another card
[10:30] <PriceChild> C-{pR0F, doesn't work?
[10:30] <NETWizz> Do you think if I just wait a few years
[10:30] <C-{pR0F> PriceChild: xkill fromt the terminal ?
[10:30] <PriceChild> C-{pR0F, as in they don't get killed?
[10:30] <NETWizz> maybe the drives and shit will work right
[10:30] <hexstar> C-{pR0F: try adding su before kill
[10:31] <PriceChild> hexstar, C-{pR0F I very much hope you aren't running nautilus or wine as root!
[10:31] <D7xk> with a dual screen setup, is there any way to make all new windows only open on one screen?
[10:31] <hexstar> rjb: you need a compatible bios
[10:31] <IceLink> Hey there
[10:31] <C-{pR0F> PriceChild: no i don't ,,, but at least i want the nautilus to work , is there a way to restart it
[10:31] <rjb> hibernate works fine in winxp
[10:32] <PriceChild> C-{pR0F, what crashed it?
[10:32] <PriceChild> rjb, using restricted drivers?
[10:32] <C-{pR0F> i guess the wine
[10:32] <rjb> so the bios might be compatible, right?
[10:32] <PriceChild> C-{pR0F, wine and nautilus aren't connected...
[10:32] <PriceChild> rjb, using restricted drivers?
[10:32] <stefg> NETWizz: it works with the nv driver, but kiss aiglx/beryl/xgl stuff byebye then
[10:32] <hexstar> rjb: possibly but with linux you never know, linux can be behind windows in support
[10:32] <danya> hello .. I'm confused here .. I've installed wine and I'm trying to install photoshop with it .. I got to the installation window but when it asks me about the destination folder and I add to c/:program files I get an error .. ? anyone plz ?
[10:32] <rjb> PriceChild: not atm, trying to replace ndiswrapper with bcm43xx
[10:32] <D0pamine> hi all
[10:33] <hexstar> rjb: linux also isn't as concerned as windows is with backwards compatibility so while one kernel may have supported that feature with your bios if your bios is old it may have been unsupported from the kernel by now
[10:33] <rjb> seems to work though it floods my logs with messages
[10:33] <PriceChild> rjb, I'm inexperienced with ndiswrapper... could you try temporarily disabling any drivers with that... and attempting to hibernate again?
[10:33] <IceLink> might anybody help me? When an application starts in Fullscreen mode, my monitor shows me "Mode not supported" and i have to reboot, i already took a look into the xorg.conf but i don't know which mode might be a problem or so
[10:33] <Jack_Sparrow> Consider running with the vesa drivers and seeing if it suspends to disk.. If so you can rule out flashing the bios...
[10:33] <astro76> danya, have you run winecfg first?
[10:33] <Skrypt> Can someone help me find my sound card's chipset? I can 'lspci -v' but cannot determine what chipset I need to add to the end of "sudo modprobe snd-****"  http://pastebin.com/m6bba4dcf
[10:33] <C-{pR0F> PriceChild: i was working on the wine , i clicked on a directory to select it , and then it crashed , i click the "x" to end wine , and then Force to quit ,,, after that the nautilus crashed , and there is a wine process in the system monitor that is unkillable ???
[10:33] <hexstar> IceLink: it means the resolution is too big or small
[10:33] <rjb> PriceChild: igot rid of ndiswrapper & are running the opensource driver now
[10:34] <danya> astro76: I've done that and chose set the type to cdrom and ok
[10:34] <zdzichu_> Skrypt: snd_intel8x0

[10:34] <shinynew> looking for a small program to moniter only the system tray
[10:34] <ShackJack> danya: "Get an error" is not specific enough :) ... p.s. check out #winhq for dedicated wine support...
[10:34] <D0pamine> anyone got experience with the via s3 unichrome adapter , when any live cd with X it fails , just get a blank screen , if i stop X / gdm and edit the xorg.conf to use vesa its fine , its a laptop btw so i cant change it
[10:34] <PriceChild> rjb, and you are positive you are not using any other restricted wireless, graphics whatever drivers?
[10:34] <ShackJack> err. #winehq
[10:34] <IceLink> hexstar: well, in the xorg.conf, there are only normal resolutiopns from 640*480 to 12..*... and they are all supported, i think
