[04:16] <zooko> Hopefully the kernel config you suggested first will work better for me. :-)

[04:16] <eddy> Alan502, but imagine a storm of flying poo every where?
[04:16] <lstarnes> obiwan__: you might have to do it through dpkg -l
[04:16] <Chips_Handon> pen drive is somehow now read-only. help please
[04:16] <Drained> i'll try in #compiz
[04:16] <zooko> Hm.  How can I find out what went wrong such that there are no logs.  I can't look in the logs to find out!  :-)
[04:16] <Jordan_U> zooko: It's not something I would do on a production server but I can see if I still have it ( or recreate it since it's pretty simple )
[04:16] <eddy> Chips_Handon, you could add the pen drive to /fstab with rw option
[04:17] <Chips_Handon> ?
[04:17] <eddy> /etc/fstab*
[04:17] <Alan502> mdg_? thanks for your help
[04:17] <Chips_Handon> dont know what you mean. not geeky enough
[04:17] <Alan502> appreciated :d
[04:17] <cookie> net
[04:17] <n8tuser> Alan502 -> your statement seems confusing, you installed ubuntu on an ext3 file system and you are attempting to access it from windows?
[04:17] <eddy> Chips_Handon, dammit lol uhhh where to start
[04:17] <mdg_> Alan502: people are confused because you are trying to access windows partition through windows after ubuntu install...
[04:17] <zooko> I wonder if it has something to do with the fact that / is a flashdrive with ext3 on it.  :-(
[04:17] <zooko> There *is* a dmesg.
[04:17] <Jordan_U> zooko: This looks promising ( read the note though )
[04:17] <zooko> But not /var/log/messages or /var/log/syslog
[04:17] <Chips_Handon> i dont need alot
[04:17] <Jordan_U> zooko: http://www.linode.com/wiki/index.php/Rebooting_on_OOM
[04:17] <Alan502> exactly
[04:18] <ScottNYC> are the commands in OSX termianl and linux terminal the exact same?
[04:18] <Chips_Handon> where is this /fsstab at
[04:18] <eddy> yo does anyone know how to get a UUID without gparted?
[04:18] <lstarnes> ScottNYC: they are different
[04:18] <mdg_> Alan502: ask in the ##windows channel
[04:18] <lstarnes> Chips_Handon: /etc/fstab
[04:18] <Alan502> but ubuntu its making windows not recognize the drive
[04:18] <Alan502> ok thanks
[04:18] <Chips_Handon> ok
[04:18] <eddy> Chips_Handon, it is in /etc/fstab
[04:18] <clank> is there an application I can use to edit pdf's? i'd like to add a table of contents
[04:18] <bastid_raZor> eddy: sudo blkid
[04:18] <Jordan_U> ScottNYC: Some are exactly the same, some are completely different, and some are in between
[04:18] <Chips_Handon> im still learning alot
[04:18] <lstarnes> ScottNYC: but they aren't too dissimilar
[04:18] <eddy> cool thx
[04:18] <Chips_Handon> bare with me
[04:18] <ScottNYC> k
[04:19] <aleron> can anybody give me the kdenlive channel
[04:19] <n8tuser> Alan502 -> you have to be clear, you have installed ubuntu, and ubuntu can only be installed on an ext* type.. so attempting to access that from windows is not easy
[04:19] <obiwan__> yeah lstarnes , i've found apt-cache pkgnames but that just lists installed , and in a ugly way :S dpkg -l defintely works best that that option
[04:19] <eddy> Chips_Handon, plug in your pendrive and run 'sudo blkid' in terminal
[04:19] <lstarnes> obiwan__: you could also try filtering the output of apt-cache using apt-cache dump | grep ^Package:
[04:19] <lstarnes> obiwan__: however, it is most direct to use dpkg -l
[04:19] <Chips_Handon> ok
[04:19] <Alan502> n8tuser: no, i want to access a previously created ntfs partition with windows
[04:19] <Jordan_U> ScottNYC: Many commands are actually the same code, like GNU bash, then there are things like "killall" which on linux will kill the process you pass as an argument, and on most other *NIX will kill *everything* ;)
[04:19] <justin_> hey im back still no luk with the wireless
[04:20] <eddy> copy the UUID value for /dev/sdb1 (or /dev/hdb1)
[04:20]  * zooko superstitiously tries creating an empty /var/log/syslog with the right ownership and permissions.
[04:20] <eddy> Chips_Handon, ^^
[04:20] <Alan502> n8tuser: it worked before ubuntu installation, but for some reason ubuntu installed in this ntf partition
[04:20] <ScottNYC> k
[04:20] <n8tuser> Alan502 -> i think you are mistaken, explain how many partitions do you think you have?
[04:20] <Alan502> n8tuse: its rare, did you look at my post?
[04:20] <Alan502> n8tuser: i have six partitions actually
[04:20] <eddy> Chips_Handon, now do you know what type of filesystem your pen drive is? if not, running the previous command will tell you too
[04:20] <Chips_Handon> THANKS
[04:20] <Chips_Handon> IT WORKED
[04:20] <Chips_Handon> fat32
[04:20] <Alan502> n8tuse: three in etx3 & 2
[04:21] <n8tuser> Alan502 -> do not attempt to keep some info, be clear please
[04:21] <Chips_Handon> it always worked before
[04:21] <obiwan__> yeah lstarnes , thought about that but that isn't nice because you're requesting for info you don't actually need, i'll keep with dpkg -l
[04:21] <obiwan__> MANY thanx anyway :):)
[04:21] <Alan502> n8tuse: this is an screen capture of partition manager in windows, showing the partitions:http://imgur.com/Abge7.jpg
[04:21] <n8tuser> Alan502 -> your posting does not even describe that. so please be clear on what you have
[04:21] <Chips_Handon> just had problems now. might be my computer. old machine
[04:21] <Alan502> n8tuser: blue is ntfs, yellow is etx3 and brown is etx2
[04:21] <eddy> Chips_Handon, okay now add a line to ur /etc/fstab: UUID="<that value" vfat rw,users,noauto 0 0
[04:22] <Chips_Handon> its working now
[04:22] <Chips_Handon> im good
[04:22] <n8tuser> Alan502 -> that is difficult to read, get a better snapshot
[04:22] <eddy> ok cool
[04:22] <Jordan_U> zooko: Note though that the OOM killer really should prevent any freezes ( by killing processes until you have enough memory ), so I'm not sure what is happening
[04:22] <Chips_Handon> the blkid command did it
[04:22] <Alan502> mmm
[04:22] <Alan502> i will
[04:22] <bastid_raZor> Alan502: that is not an ntfs partition.. it says ext3 . no wonder you can not access it in windows
[04:22] <eddy> Chips_Handon, good to hear
[04:22] <Alan502> D its an ntfs
[04:22] <Alan502> ubuntu created and etx3 inside it apparently
[04:22] <Alan502> its weird
[04:23] <wizz> how to open startup manager?
[04:23] <wizz> !startup
[04:23] <Chips_Handon> funny how the solution was so simple
[04:23] <ScottNYC> i think ubutnu is gonna maistream linux
[04:23] <Chips_Handon> GNU/LINUX!!!!!!!!
[04:23] <eddy> wizz, did you sudo apt-get install startupmanager?
[04:23] <nobodymezquitale> mezquitale, youre still there?
[04:23] <n8tuser> Alan502 -> you are attempting to read from windows, it will not read ext* partition correctly unless you have the driver loaded in windows
[04:23] <eddy> wizz, it doesn't come with ubuntu by default
[04:23] <Jordan_U> zooko: i.e. If the OOM killer is not being called it might be because you never get to a complete out of memory condition, and if so panic_on_oom won't be triggered either
[04:23] <n8tuser> Alan502 -> the snapshot you have is bogus
[04:24] <zooko> Jordan_U: Hm
[04:24] <eddy> wizz, could always just edit the /boot/grub/menu.lst file manually :-)
[04:24] <Alan502> n8tuser: let me get a better one
[04:24] <nobodymezquitale> that's weird, i lost connection on xchat and when I logged back in it said my nic is already in use
[04:24] <eddy> nobodymezquitale, it happens
[04:24] <Alan502> n8tuse: i cannot print screen because all the programs i had installed were on D and i cannot access them
[04:24] <zooko> The guy who has physical access to the box at co-lo says that the terminal is full of "no more memory, can't kill process $XYZ".
[04:24] <aleron> does anybody know of the kdenlive channel
[04:24] <n8tuser> Alan502 -> once more, do not attempt to read linux partition from windows unless you have the correct driver to read em
[04:24] <Chips_Handon> i wish i could give you a cookie eddy. i planed on using my psp as a storage device. imagine taking that around!!!!!
[04:24] <mdg_> n8tuser: there's a windows driver for that?
[04:25] <luis_> hello
[04:25] <eddy> Chips_Handon, i made cookies today, ironically
[04:25] <n8tuser> Alan502 -> you seemed to ignore what i have told you
[04:25] <Chips_Handon> hahaha
[04:25] <nobodymezquitale> anyone has an idea why bit torrent clients can't connect?  It looks like an isp somewhere is blocking bit torrent clients
[04:25] <Alan502> it is a linux partition n8tuser? where can i get the driver?
[04:25] <zooko> Darn I still don't get logging messages in /var/log/system.  :-{
[04:25] <n8tuser> mdg_ -> i was told there is a driver for it, maybe you have to pay
[04:25] <CoJaBo-Aztec> nobodymezquitale: Comcast? :P
[04:25] <n8tuser> Alan502 ->  -> i was told there is a driver for it, maybe you have to pay
[04:26] <Jordan_U> zooko: Then panic_on_oom would work, as the kernel is at least trying to use the OOM killer. You might want to figure out why it can't kill processes though
[04:26] <nobodymezquitale> CoJaBo-Aztec, no, i use cablevision
[04:26] <Alan502> n8tuser: the thing is that, once again it is not a etx3 partition
[04:26] <Fatboy12345236> Anyone alive?
[04:26] <Alan502> n8tuse: it shows up as a ntfs
[04:26] <mdg_> :/ ain't that always the way with windows...
[04:26] <nobodymezquitale> !ask | Fatboy12345236
[04:26] <zooko> Running /etc/init.d/sysklogd stop && /etc/init.d/sysklogd start claims to have worked.
[04:26] <Chips_Handon> while im here, can anyone help me fix my resolution on my TV with the VGA attached?
[04:26] <zooko> But still no log.
[04:26] <n8tuser> Alan502 -> okay, if you dispute this,  can you boot into linux?
[04:26] <Alan502> n8tuser: i can see it in my pc, while i cant see other partitions that are etx3 whole
[04:26] <Chips_Handon> its stuck on 640x420 or somthing likle that
[04:26] <Alan502> n8tuser: yes i can with no problems
[04:26] <eddy> Chips_Handon, you'll probably have to edit the /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:26] <Chips_Handon> it might be the fact that the computer is a peice of sh**
[04:27] <Chips_Handon> i dont know how
[04:27] <Chips_Handon> last time i tried i had to reinstall
[04:27] <n8tuser> Alan502 -> then lets prove that once you get into linux, boot into linux, then type this  sudo fdisk -l   and then paste the results in pastebin, then we can believe you
[04:27] <eddy> anyone good with Xorg able to help Chips_Handon?
[04:27] <Fatboy12345236> Alrighty, I'm trying to compile Eggdrop and It says I'm missing tlclib or something like that...
[04:27] <zooko> Hrm.  Should I sudo apt-get install syslogd?
[04:27] <mdg_> Alan502: are you sure the size of the D: drive is seen the same in Ubuntu and windows?
[04:27] <Alan502> sudo gedit /etc/x11/xorg.conf Chips_Handon
[04:27] <zooko> Maybe that would help.  :-)
[04:27] <Fatboy12345236> Stop flooding!
[04:27] <Alan502> ok n8tuser
[04:28] <lstarnes> Fatboy12345236: you need tcl-dev and tcl
[04:28] <Fatboy12345236> How do I get 'em?
[04:28] <Alan502> mdg_: i cannot see the drive size in windows
[04:28] <Chips_Handon> if it helps, my tv is a Sharp lcd 27inch. computer is a dell dimension 2400
[04:28] <lstarnes> Fatboy12345236: sudo apt-get install tcl tcl-dev
[04:28] <Chips_Handon> vga to tv
[04:28] <Jordan_U> zooko: Try typing alt+sysrq+f (WARNING COULD KILL IMPORTANT PROCESSES ) and see what exactly it can't kill, and maybe look at dmesg for more info
[04:28] <mdg_> Alan502: not any drive sizes throught windows or just D: ?
[04:28] <Fatboy12345236> P.S I'm on xubantu
[04:28] <eddy> Chips_Handon, are you trying to have dual monitor setup with this TV?
[04:28] <zooko> Jordan_U: I don't have console access.  I'm ssh'ed in.
[04:28] <Chips_Handon> no
[04:29] <Chips_Handon> it is my main monitor
[04:29] <dios_mio> is it wise to let the Nvidia's own config tool to save to xorg.conf?
[04:29] <n8tuser> mdg_ -> geesh one can not read a linux partition from windows easily, you are not accepting of that?
[04:29] <justin_> hey guys im having trouble with my wireless ndiswrapper sees the device and sees its installed but i cant use it
[04:29] <eddy> ohhh
[04:29] <zooko> And the mystery I'm studying at the moment is "Why are there no logs?".
[04:29] <Alan502> mdg_: just D
[04:29] <mdg_> n8tuser: I asked him if he can see any partitions from within windows
[04:29] <Alan502> mdg_: D is the only drive i am having problems with, and in windows
[04:30] <Jordan_U> zooko: You can get the same effect by writing "f" to /proc/sysrq-trigger but it might kill ssh ( probably not as the killer is somewhat smart and tries to choose less important things to kill )
[04:30] <Alan502> mdg_: i can see only ntfs partitions, C and D
[04:30] <n8tuser> mdg_ -> he is confused and not understanding things, you kept feeding him
[04:30] <zooko> Jordan_U: this is to trigger the OOM killer?
[04:30] <Jordan_U> zooko: Yes
[04:30] <eddy> Chips_Handon, just edit your xorg.conf: gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and look for the device "screen" section and edit the resolution to your desire
[04:30] <Alan502> mmm
[04:30] <dios_mio> how can I get passed this stupid security that wont let me edit /etc files in gedit?
[04:30] <Alan502> n8tuser: what do you want me to understand exactly?
[04:30] <Chips_Handon> there is nothing there
[04:30] <n8tuser> Alan502 -> then lets prove that once you get into linux, boot into linux, then type this  sudo fdisk -l   and then paste the results in pastebin, then we can believe you
[04:30] <mdg_> Alan502: perhaps booting from your live USB into ubuntu and getting a screenshot of gparted would help
[04:30] <Chips_Handon> last time i did it did boot coorectly
[04:30] <Chips_Handon> i screwed it up
[04:31] <Alan502> n8tuser: thats what i am doing
[04:31] <Chips_Handon> didnt*
[04:31] <lstarnes> dios_mio: alt+f2 then gksudo gedit
[04:31] <Jordan_U> zooko: "echo f | sudo tee /proc/sysrq-trigger"
[04:31] <n8tuser> Alan502 -> am waiting..ill give you five minutes
[04:31] <dios_mio> thanks lstarnes
[04:31] <n8tuser> i may have to sit in the throne.. :P
[04:31] <justin_> -.-
[04:31] <Fatboy12345236> awww Thanks,
[04:31] <mdg_> n8tuser: I think we are all confused  ;)
[04:31] <Fatboy12345236> Worked!
[04:31] <zooko> Jordan_U: Uh, that echoed "f" to my terminal.  :-)
[04:31] <Chips_Handon> its probably this computer
[04:32] <Chips_Handon> its crap
[04:32] <zooko> Ah, and it triggered the OOM.  :-)
[04:32] <eddy> Chips_Handon, perhaps you need to use a different gfx driver
[04:32] <Jordan_U> zooko: It also wrote it to /proc/sysrq-trigger ( man tee ). You will see a message about what it killed in dmesg
[04:32] <dios_mio> lstarnes , is it wise to let the Nvidia's own config tool to save to xorg.conf?
[04:33] <zooko> I know about tee, I just expected stdout from the write to /proc, which now that I say it sounds pretty dumb...
[04:33] <lstarnes> dios_mio: I'm not sure
[04:33] <lstarnes> dios_mio: I don't think I've had any issues with it, but I have not used it in a long time
[04:33] <dios_mio> lstarnes , ok thanks
[04:33] <zooko> Jordan_U: well, in this case it picked a good victim and killed it successfully.
[04:33] <Chips_Handon> maybe, but im not too familar with graphic drivers. i know were to find it, but  i would have to build it. i dont know how to do things like that
[04:34] <quartknee> I'm running Jaunty and it won't install updates/update my distribution because of medibuntu files. Should I delete those files?
[04:34] <zooko> Any theories why I don't have a /var/log/syslog?  :-(
[04:34] <Jordan_U> zooko: The file doesn't exist?
[04:34] <Chips_Handon> if i bought a decent graphics card, do you think it would fix the resolution? the added video memory wouldnt hurt
[04:35] <Jordan_U> zooko: Or just nothing in it about the OOM?
[04:35] <Drained> Chips_Handon: you could force the resolution?
[04:35] <zooko> Jordan_U: it isn't created.  So I made one with the right ownership and permissions and rebooted, but nothing is written into it.
[04:35] <zooko> It is on / which is an ext3 on a flashdrive.
[04:35] <Chips_Handon> dotn know how.
[04:35] <Brian___> can someone please help i messed with my xorg.conf file and now ubuntu wont start
[04:35] <n8tuser> zooko -> look in your /etc/syslog.conf if its declared to be used
[04:35] <Chips_Handon> unless it involves xorg.conf
[04:36] <Chips_Handon> last time i went in there i had to reinstall
[04:36] <zooko> n8tuser: thanks.
[04:36] <Jordan_U> zooko: Also make sure syslogd is running
[04:36] <DigitalKiwi> zooko: do you use arch or ubuntu or both or what? could swear i saw you in their channel earlier
[04:36] <Chips_Handon> not to mention i had to install ine safe graphic mode because the main screen would pop up
[04:36] <Drained> Does anyone know how to get Ctrl-alt-backspace to work again?
[04:36] <soreau> ! dontzap | Drained
[04:36] <Chips_Handon> wouldnt*
[04:37] <zooko> DigitalKiwi: I was just working on some Python packaging issues and wanted to know how ArchLinux compiles its python executable.
[04:37] <DigitalKiwi> ah
[04:37] <zooko> I mostly use Ubuntu, myself.  Hardy is my favorite server OS right now.  I'm trying to get my secure cloud storage project included in Karmic.
[04:37] <Jordan_U> Brian___: Boot holding shift, when you see the grub menu choose "recovery mode"
[04:37] <deltaray2> I'm getting this error when trying to run 'dpkg -L cpp':  dpkg-query: unrecoverable fatal error, aborting:  unable to open files list file for package `cpp': Stale NFS file handle

[04:37] <deltaray2> Any ideas?
[04:38] <Chips_Handon> halp
[04:38] <zooko> n8tuser: bingo!  syslog is commented out!  Thanks.
[04:38] <chunda> guys, i have a rlt8187b wifi adapter and i've done the trick of fixing the bitrate (iwconfig wlan0 rate 5.5M fixed) to fix the range pro yetblem. But there the connectivity problem i could not solve

[04:41] <dragon> will an UNR image work on an i386 machine?
[04:41] <Jordan_U> Chips_Handon: Then it is still in safe graphics mode, that is why you aren't getting full rez

[04:43] <Jordan_U> dvsxutact: np
[04:43] <n8tuser> thegusty ->  od  ?
[04:43] <Chips_Handon> if i screw it up again
[04:43] <chunda> n8tuser, guess i have no option
[04:43] <Fatboy12345236> 2nd question, Is there any way you can add a capital in your name E.G Instead of james, Is there any way I can make it James?
[04:44] <chunda> n8tuser, or maybe i can try 9.10
[04:44] <n8tuser> chunda -> why not?
[04:44] <dragon> Hello world. I just created a UNR USB using the `usb-imagewriter` available through the repositories. USB creation was successful but my x86 laptop reads "Boot Error" when I try to boot from that USB.
[04:44] <Maelos`> What's the difference with the "virtual" version of the kernel?
[04:44] <Maelos`> I'm running the "server" build inside my guests.  Would virtual be preferred and why?
[04:44] <Chips_Handon> what to do
[04:45] <Jordan_U> Chips_Handon: Ok, well you can try not using safe graphics mode by running "sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf-bak", but if it fails you will have to go to a terminal with ctrl+alt+f1 and restore the file with "sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf-bak /etc/X11/xorg.conf"
[04:45] <Chips_Handon> 640x480n on a 27 inch 16:9 sucks
[04:45] <JuanCarlos> Virtual-Kernel--->for virtual machines, optimized, thin
[04:45] <dvsxutact> so, if i wanted the system to boot to console instead of x11, i'd just delete the /etc/init.d/x11-common file correct?
[04:45] <Maelos`> JuanCarlos: I saw that but how is it compiled differently?
[04:45] <Fatboy12345236> Can anyone answer meh question?
[04:45] <chunda> n8tuser, thanks for your attention
[04:45] <Jordan_U> dvsxutact: Remove GDM
[04:45] <Fatboy12345236> GDM?
[04:46] <dvsxutact> jordon, i dont want to get rid of the x system totally
[04:46] <dvsxutact> i just dont want it to boot into x
[04:46] <n8tuser> chunda -> no sweat, sometimes one has to bite the bullet and select something else
[04:46] <Fatboy12345236> Can someone answer meh question!?!?!
[04:46] <JuanCarlos> different drivers on virtual kernel
[04:46] <chunda> n8tuser, it is because it is my notebook's wifi adapeter
[04:46] <chunda> adapter
[04:46] <dvsxutact> Fatboy12345236, push the power button
[04:46] <Fatboy12345236> 2nd question, Is there any way you can add a capital in your name E.G Instead of james, Is there any way I can make it James?
[04:46] <WonderfunkJones> sound question:  following this article here, http://www.fusetext.com/2009/05/ubuntu-linux-creative-sound-blaster-x-fi-driver-installation-how-to/ , I was able to download the creative labs drivers for my X-Fi, but I get this error message: Error inserting ctxfi (/lib/modules/2.6.28-15-generic/kernel/drivers/ssound/ctxfi.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)
[04:47] <Jordan_U> dvsxutact: I meant /etc/invoke-rc.d/gdm
[04:47] <chriscrossed_> hello
[04:47] <n8tuser> chunda -> when using livecd  does it work okay?
[04:47] <Fatboy12345236> dvsxutact > and turn off? How is that gonna help?
[04:47] <dvsxutact> Jordan_U, thanks
[04:47] <JuanCarlos> I try to contribute Art to the Koala :) http://img245.imageshack.us/img245/7374/bannerkarmic2day30.jpg
[04:47] <Jordan_U> dvsxutact: gdm is the service you want to make not start automatically at boot
[04:47] <dvsxutact> Fatboy12345236, no idea, but thats what i do
[04:47] <Jordan_U> dvsxutact: np
[04:47] <Fatboy12345236> Come on,
[04:48] <cpuobsessed> dvsxutact: edit your default grub.conf entry by adding a 3 at the end of the kernel line
[04:48] <Fatboy12345236> I need an answer,
[04:48] <Fatboy12345236> 2nd question, Is there any way you can add a capital in your name E.G Instead of james, Is there any way I can make it James?
[04:48] <chunda> n8tuser, no... it had a short range problem
[04:48] <ascheel> Can somebody tell me why 'df -h' says this?  The math doesn't add up:  /dev/sda7             868G  823G 1017M 100% /home
[04:48] <chunda> i fixed this by fixing the bitrate
[04:48] <Jordan_U> cpuobsessed: it's menu.lst in non Red Hat distros
[04:48] <ascheel> It shows Total is 868G, used is 823G, but free is only 1 GB?
[04:48] <Chips_Handon> jordan_u: nothing happened
[04:48] <n8tuser> chunda -> do you live in a cage like environment? ie metal grids sorrounding your spaces?
[04:49] <Jordan_U> Chips_Handon: Log out and log back in again
[04:49] <Chips_Handon> ok
[04:49] <Chips_Handon> wish me luch
[04:49] <Chips_Handon> :(
[04:49] <chriscrossed_> hmm

[04:49] <Jordan_U> Chips_Handon: Good luck :)
[04:49] <mitnick> Fatboy12345236: what the meaning of the one name? (william shakespere?
[04:49] <don-ii> Fatboy12345236: samba
[04:49] <Fatboy12345236> aww thx
[04:49] <chriscrossed_> connect to windows comps to do what?
[04:49] <chriscrossed_> file share?
[04:49] <Chips_Handon> REMEBER CHIPS HANDON. BEST COPYPASTA EVAR
[04:49] <don-ii> im assuming he means file sharing
[04:50] <chriscrossed_> samba is probably what you want.
[04:50] <Suhail> how do you decompress a gzip?
[04:50] <Fatboy12345236> yep.
[04:50] <Suhail> nvm
[04:50] <Jordan_U> Suhail: Double click it or use "gunzip"
[04:50] <Suhail> Jordan_U: ans: gzip -d <file>
[04:50] <don-ii> I think im doing something wrong :/
[04:51] <don-ii> im trying to get cygwin ssh client to connect to my ubuntu ssh server. It connects, but im aiming for a passwordless connection, however it keeps askin for a passphrase/password
[04:51] <don-ii> now what ive done is, generated a key, and copied the pubkey to the server and added it to my authorized_key file. Am i missing something ?
[04:51] <burntresistor>  liblame-dev isnt in packet manager was it renamed for jaunty
[04:52] <chunda> n8tuser, sorry

[04:53] <GLG> um my gnome bar is missing plz help
[04:53] <don-ii> any thoughts on the ssh problem ?
[04:53] <chunda> n8tuser, as i was saying, i could only solve the range problem with this: "iwconfig wlan0 rate 5.5M fixed"

[04:55] <GLG> thx all
[04:55] <jofus> hey guys i have a pretty serious problem with ldap and auth
[04:55] <chunda> n8tuser, and it was damn good
[04:55] <zooko> So it turns out this machine is configured to send its logs to a remote host.  How does it do that?  Over unencrypted TCP?  How does the remote host authenticate this host as a legitimate sender of logs?
[04:55] <WonderfunkJones> Any help with my X-Fi problem?
[04:55] <zooko> Because the log messages from this host aren't showing up on that host, although the log messages from *other* hosts are.
[04:55] <n8tuser> chunda oh well..
[04:55] <gilson> alguem ai do brasil?

[04:57] <Beefcakes> jofus: oh cool, really cool haha. so what benefit do you get from being able to connect to a ds in a linux box? sorry for the questions
[04:57] <chunda> n8tuser, no man, just to record
[04:57] <JuanCarlos> Suhail:Loopback is <IP_ADDRESS> or ::1 or localhost, use it as the other IP
[04:57] <chunda> n8tuser, and i work developing in a linux environment

[04:58] <gilson> Video
[04:58] <Alan502> n8tuser: got the data
[04:58] <bazhang> gilson, which number
[04:58] <chunda> n8tuser, just to explicit that the problem is not with the router or my internet connection
[04:58] <Alexia> can anyone recommend a good book on ipv6
[04:58] <Alan502> n8tuser: uploading the foto...
[04:58] <tjz> hey guys
[04:58] <stealth-> Beefcakes: are you positive?
[04:58] <Alan502> *photo
[04:58] <n8tuser> chunda -> well you know that most drivers are written for the other.. difficult to find an open source driver
[04:58] <gilson> gforce 4400 Nvidia
[04:58] <sebsebseb> !welcome |  tjz
[04:58] <chunda> n8tuser, yes i know that
[04:58] <tjz> how you figure out how to play windows based game on ubuntu desktop
[04:58] <bazhang> gilson, check in hardware drivers (assuming you are in 9.04)
[04:59] <chunda> n8tuser, if i have to blame someone, i have to blame realtek
[04:59] <sebsebseb> tjz: Which games?
[04:59] <Alexia> tjz, transgaming.org
[04:59] <bazhang> tjz, with wine
[04:59] <sebsebseb> Alexia: that's not free
[04:59] <jofus> hey guys LDAP changed my password. I can't log in. PLEASE HELP ME?!
[04:59] <bdigital> how do I identify what driver a ethernet card is using?
[04:59] <Alexia> tjz, sorry transgaming.com
[04:59] <gilson> hum but i have install one drive generic
[05:00] <WonderfunkJones> Any help with installing the drivers for X-Fi sound card?
[05:00] <Alexia> sebsebseb, the question wasnt where to find a free way to play windows based games
[05:00] <mattgyver> bdigital, run lspci, i believe that will show you
[05:00] <bazhang> gilson, did you check in hardware drivers?
[05:00] <n8tuser> bdigital -> type  lshw -C network
[05:00] <sebsebseb> tjz: Wine,  commercial versions of it such as transgaming that are sold,  or  possibily  a Windows virtual machine depending on game and that
[05:00] <tpeden> How do I get rid of "Xlib:  extension "Generic Event Extension" missing on display "localhost:10.0"."
[05:00] <sebsebseb> Alexia: True, but I don't think many Linux users are going  to pay for a commercial version of Wine
[05:00] <tjz> yea
[05:01] <tjz> i don't want pay for something
[05:01] <bdigital> mattgyver: it shows me the brand
[05:01] <tjz> wine = paid??!
[05:01] <bazhang> tjz, check the appdb
[05:01] <JuanCarlos> wine not paid
[05:01] <lstarnes> tjz: no.
[05:01] <gilson> yes
[05:01] <gilson>
[05:01] <gilson> I need to install the drive I already have it on my computer but I can not install NVIDIA-Linux-x86-96.43.13-pkg1.run
[05:01] <bdigital> n8tuser: ah I see it
[05:01] <sebsebseb> tjz: Wine no, Transgaming and Cedega yes
[05:01] <lstarnes> tjz: it's free both as in price and as in being open sourc
[05:01] <pete__> how can people still be using windows when something like ubuntu exists
[05:01] <lstarnes> *source
[05:01] <mattgyver> bdigital, sorry i didnt realize you were trying to figure out the driver
[05:01] <Alexia> sebsebseb,  its hardly as simple as being a commercial version of wine.. Transgaming offers a huge list of compatible games very few of which work out of the box with simple little WINE
[05:01] <tjz> ok
[05:01] <JuanCarlos> crossover has sources on the site, but not binaries
[05:01] <tjz> i will go with wine
[05:01] <bazhang> gilson, install from package manager not a run file
[05:01] <tjz> ubuntu + wine = rocks
[05:01] <tjz> i guess
[05:02] <Steil> pete__: because windows is good??
[05:02] <sebsebseb> !wine |  tjz
[05:02] <bdigital> mattgyver: thanks for the attention anyways
[05:02] <pete__> Steil, it is!? im sorry, could have fooled me
[05:02] <mattgyver> bdigital, how about lsmod?
[05:02] <sebsebseb> tjz: Depends on the programs you want to run, and you may need to configure some
[05:02] <tpeden> pete__: Wine doesn't support most games lol
[05:02] <sebsebseb> tjz: also with enough RAM you can virtual machine Windows inside Ubuntu
[05:02] <mastamatt88> hadfa
[05:02] <Alexia> tjz, many people think you should never pay for products in the linux world howeve when a product does exactly what it is supposed to do and offers support like transgaming does its absolutely worth it
[05:02] <mastamatt88> afdfa
[05:02] <mastamatt88> ddf
[05:02] <mastamatt88> af
[05:02] <mastamatt88> dfdsaf

[05:02] <mastamatt88> dsfdsf
[05:02] <gilson>
[05:02] <gilson> I do not know how
[05:02] <bdigital> mattgyver: lshw had it listed under configuration
[05:02] <Steil> pete__: well what exactly is wrong with windows?
[05:02] <pete__> tpeden, eh i have a 360 for games, and i play SNES games on ubuntu
[05:02] <bazhang> mastamatt88, please stop that
[05:02] <mattgyver> cool
[05:02] <socomm> tpeden: or is it the other way around? xD
[05:02] <leaf-sheep> pete__: Because most people does not know something other than Windows exists. -- Also, when they walk into a store, they buy a computer -- What came with it?  Windows! :<
[05:02] <rand0ms0me0ne> pete_: because windows is convenient and familiar and because right out of the box things just work
[05:02] <tpeden> lol
[05:03] <tjz> !virtualizers
[05:03] <mastamatt88> sry
[05:03] <pete__> yeah you guys are right, just ubuntu is so much better
[05:03] <JuanCarlos> lol
[05:03] <sebsebseb> !virtualbox | tjz
[05:03] <lstarnes> tpeden: games that use opengl and sdl instead of directx tend to fare better on wine than those that use directx
[05:03] <jofus> guys i have a serious problem
[05:03] <jofus> when installing ldap it changed my password
[05:03] <tjz> virtualization is my first thought.. before i know about wine :D
[05:03] <gilson> how do I install the file. run
[05:03] <pete__> !ldap
[05:03] <tpeden> How do I get rid of this error: "Xlib:  extension "Generic Event Extension" missing on display "localhost:10.0"."
[05:03] <tpeden> It's pissing me off! lol
[05:03] <lstarnes> gilson: run it
[05:03] <tjz> maybe i get good amount of RAM and disk
[05:04] <tjz> :D
[05:04] <WonderfunkJones> Any help on errors installing drivers for X-Fi sound card? ALSA does not work and the drivers from creative should
[05:04] <bazhang> gilson, install from package manager not from run file
[05:04] <stealth-> gilson: run it as root from the command line
[05:04] <bucky> gilson, install the deb with synaptic
[05:04] <sebsebseb> tjz: ideally this is how you should do things :)   native Linux apps, then Wine,  then  vm
[05:04] <pete__> gtk-gnuella is nice
[05:04] <Fatboy12345236> MAJOR NOOB QUESTION: What's the command to extract .tar.gz or whatever
[05:04] <eddy> sebastien_, people paid for crossover games/office
[05:04] <lstarnes> Fatboy12345236: for .tar.gz, tar xzf file.tar.gz
[05:04] <sebsebseb> eddy: some yes, and it's also off topic
[05:04] <Alexia> I hate this attitude some people have that they should never buy a commercial product for linux.. its no wonder Major devolopers dont offer better compatibility with linux, there are so many people that think everything should just be free as in free beer
[05:04] <soreau> Fatboy12345236: tar -xf file.tar.gz
[05:04] <socomm> pete__: torrents > gnutella
[05:04] <pete__> socomm, yea its great
[05:04] <lstarnes> Alexia: this channel is not a soapbox
[05:05] <socomm> s/torrents/bittorrent/g
[05:05] <stealth-> Fatboy12345236: please dont ask questions like that on here. Google has a massive resource for basic questions like that, not to mention the man pages
[05:05] <bazhang> lets get back on topic please
[05:05] <sebsebseb> Alexia: of course  some people will pay for Linux apps
[05:05] <lstarnes> stealth-: it's a legitimate question
[05:05] <bazhang> stealth-, please be helpful
[05:05] <Fatboy12345236> k
[05:05] <Fatboy12345236> I won't
[05:05] <gilson> say the comand for install synaptic
[05:05] <tjz> sebsebseb, okay
[05:05] <bazhang> gilson, search for it in synaptic
[05:06] <stealth-> bazhang: I am, I waited until he was answered to mention that for next time
[05:06] <Alexia> ok i forgot this isnt really a chat room, its a support room. Sorry
[05:06] <JuanCarlos> BTW karmic got PlayOnLinux on Repos
[05:06] <socomm> sebsebseb: I personally have not bout any software, aside from games, ever
[05:06] <lstarnes> gilson: synaptic doesn't use commands.  It's a graphical application
[05:06] <sebsebseb> socomm: not what?
[05:06] <bazhang> stealth-, no. this is not a re-direct to Google.
[05:06] <gilson> i dont now install synaptic]
[05:06] <gilson> say foir me please
[05:06] <lstarnes> gilson: you do not have synaptic?
[05:06] <socomm> sebsebseb: purchased, sorry
[05:06] <gilson> rsrs i dont now
[05:06] <gilson> rsrs
[05:06] <bucky> gilson, System=>Adiministration=>Software Sources   check all the boxes then go to the Synaptic Package Manager menu
[05:06] <eddy> sorry sebastien_ i had my chat windows scrolled up a bit and saw it lol
[05:07] <sebsebseb> socomm: ok well whatever I guess, as long as your using legal versions of software
[05:07] <stealth-> bazhang: Sorry, did I not to say that I waited until he was answered to recommend it for next time? I didnt tell him not to come here, or that we wont answer him, or anything like that.
[05:07] <WonderfunkJones> any help with installing X-Fi sound card drivers?  I get an error I can't understand...
[05:07] <socomm> sebsebseb: yup, thank god for the GNU development tools. :D
[05:07] <bazhang> stealth-, please never suggest google here. Thanks.
[05:08] <pete__> google helps people break linux
[05:08] <stealth-> bazhang: your right, because its an absolutely terrible idea to get people to use information gathering methods other than this chat room
[05:08] <Alan502> u8tuser: http://img508.imageshack.us/img508/6643/dscn1646.jpg
[05:08] <pete__> stealth-, no, because then they do things they shouldn't
[05:09] <socomm> pete__: I hardly need help with that. ;^)
[05:09] <pete__> based on advice from articles.
[05:09] <lstarnes> stealth-: there are some people who aren't very good with google
[05:09] <pete__> socomm, me either
[05:09] <WonderfunkJones> hahaha
[05:09] <WonderfunkJones> what do I put in the search bar?
[05:09] <soreau> WonderfunkJones: It would help if you pastebinned any errors you receive
[05:09] <bazhang> gilson, system-->administration-->synaptic  open it up
[05:09] <soreau> ! paste | WonderfunkJones
[05:09] <pete__> lstarnes, how can you not be good at google ?
[05:09] <WonderfunkJones> pastebin?
[05:09] <bucky> !pastebin
[05:09] <gilson> yes i se
[05:09] <stealth-> lstarnes: if I had googled his exact question, I could have got a answer.
[05:09] <gilson> and now?
[05:10] <stealth-> pete__: like?
[05:10] <lstarnes> pete__: it is possible that you might not know how to get the best keywords
[05:10] <bazhang> WonderfunkJones, open up a browser and go to paste.ubuntu.com
[05:10] <Alan502> n8tuser: n8tuser

[05:10] <pete__> stealth-, they often break X, dont know how to use a terminal and have to reinstall ubuntu haha
[05:10] <gilson> yes
[05:10] <gilson> i seach
[05:11] <Alan502> n8tuser: conviced now?
[05:11] <gilson> i see
[05:11] <gilson> rsrs
[05:11] <gilson> mensage error rsrs
[05:11] <bucky> !enter | gilson
[05:11] <bazhang> gilson, find the one that you need and right click it (mark for install)
[05:11] <sebsebseb> !google |  stealth-  pete__
[05:11] <pete__> sebsebseb, i know...
[05:11] <n8tuser> Alan502 -> i have not looked yet, give me five
[05:12] <socomm> Haha, hand holding is not always good thing.
[05:12] <gilson> ok
[05:12] <bazhang> let's take the meta-discussion to #ubuntu-offtopic please
[05:12] <Alan502> n8tuser: ok thanks
[05:12] <norelpy> how can i start a private chat with another
[05:12] <socomm> Best way to avoid mistakes is by making them. :^)
[05:12] <soreau> norelpy: /msg <nick> <msg>
[05:12] <bazhang> gilson, once you have done that , hit apply
[05:12] <lstarnes> norelpy: in general, you don't need private chat here
[05:12] <lstarnes> norelpy: the command is often /query user
[05:12] <WonderfunkJones> Please read:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/274487/
[05:13] <norelpy> the chanell is so speedy
[05:13] <norelpy> i ca not follow
[05:13] <norelpy> :d
[05:13] <bazhang> norelpy, always best to ask first; then /msg nickname hi
[05:13] <beyondcr> is there a program to save your ubuntu os like a distro... like a back up
[05:13] <Jordan_U> !clone | beyondcr
[05:14] <gilson> the drive generic dont have resolution 1000/700 do you andestand?
[05:14] <n8tuser> Alan502 -> you have /dev/sda5 as ntfs
[05:14] <CHIPSHANDON> HEY
[05:14] <lstarnes> WonderfunkJones: that package might not be compatible with your version of the linux kernel
[05:14] <CHIPSHANDON> HALP
[05:14] <bazhang> sbackup beyondcr for backing up important data, or you could clone your current install
[05:14] <CHIPSHANDON> on live cd
[05:14] <norelpy> ok guy then i ask
[05:14] <socomm> CHIPSHANDON: ask
[05:14] <norelpy> i have a critical problem with flash content
[05:14] <Alan502> n8tuser: so?
[05:14] <CHIPSHANDON> need command to fix graphics mode
[05:14] <lstarnes> WonderfunkJones: check the output of dmesg
[05:14] <gilson> when I install the generic driver does not give me many options for resolution is the drive or need to do something to fix?
[05:14] <CHIPSHANDON> wheres jordan_u?
[05:14] <WonderfunkJones> lstarnes: I heard KK will have builtin support for X-Fi, do you think it's best to just wait for it?
[05:15] <beyondcr> ok to they make a program with a gui if i can remember there was one in mint
[05:15] <bazhang> gilson, yes, that is not a normal resolution rate
[05:15] <n8tuser> Alan502 -> you created that partition from windows?
[05:15] <Jordan_U> CHIPSHANDON: First mount your ubuntu partition
[05:15] <lstarnes> WonderfunkJones: possibly.  If you're not afraid of using alpha quality software, you could use karmic now
[05:15] <CHIPSHANDON> ????
[05:15] <Alan502> n8tuser: yes, i created it before ubuntu
[05:15] <bazhang> beyondcr, something like the ubuntu customization kit ?
[05:15] <CHIPSHANDON> i just need that command to fix it too where it was
[05:16] <norelpy> guys i can open youtube videos but facebook videos not
[05:16] <norelpy> what can i do
[05:16] <WonderfunkJones> lstarnes: meh I'll see what I can do now, ultimately I'll just end up waiting for it, thanks
[05:16] <bazhang> !remaster | beyondcr
[05:16] <beyondcr> you could save your current state to dvd and install it like a normal distro
[05:16] <lstarnes> norelpy: what errors do you get?
[05:16] <n8tuser> Alan502 -> you ever stored anything on it once you created that partition?
[05:16] <norelpy> facebook says me
[05:16] <gilson> I like this concert? talking on the drive I installed now the nvidia toolkit and did not ask to restart or anything oque do? and already installed
[05:16] <Jordan_U> CHIPSHANDON: From the installed system it would be: sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf-bak /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:16] <Alan502> n8tuser: no, because i cannot access it
[05:16] <norelpy> the video is not avalaible
[05:16] <Alan502> n8tuser: just from windows..
[05:16] <lstarnes> WonderfunkJones: if you have up-to-date headers, compiling it should work if it doesn't rely on newer kernel features
[05:16] <dios_mio> how do i change my resolution for good?
[05:16] <CHIPSHANDON> where do i type that?
[05:16] <beyondcr> im just tired of getting it the way i like it then i mess somthing up and then it is no good
[05:16] <Alan502> n8tuser i mean.. from ubuntu
[05:16] <norelpy> i can not  run dailymotion videos too
[05:17] <CHIPSHANDON> into the bootable terminal?
[05:17] <lstarnes> CHIPSHANDON: in a terminal
[05:17] <n8tuser> Alan502 -> yeah thats what i meant, upon creation in windows did you attempt to store anything on it?
[05:17] <Jordan_U> CHIPSHANDON: You need to do a bit more if you wan to fix it from the LiveCD though
[05:17] <CHIPSHANDON> i realize that
[05:17] <don-ii> im trying to get cygwin ssh client to connect to my ubuntu ssh server. It connects, but im aiming for a passwordless connection, however it keeps askin for a passphrase/password
[05:17] <don-ii> any thoughts on the ssh problem ?
[05:17] <CHIPSHANDON> i just need that comand from earlier
[05:17] <Alan502> n8tuser: yes i stored all my data there but long before playing with ubuntu
[05:17] <lstarnes> don-ii: you need to use public key authentication using a passwordless private key
[05:17] <soreau> WonderfunkJones: Can you try 'make clean; make' from the source directory? and make sure there aren't any errors?
[05:18] <n8tuser> Alan502 -> and now when you are in windows, you cant access D:  ?
[05:18] <CHIPSHANDON> i get sound but no video
[05:18] <mitnick> Happy Iedul Fitri. :)
[05:18] <n8tuser> Alan502 -> did you try to access /dev/sda5 from ubuntu? mounting it first off course
[05:18] <Alan502> mmm
[05:18] <don-ii> lstarnes: i understand that, ive set up my laptop to connect without password, and it works great. Im trying to get my windows machine to do the same, but each time its always askin for a passphrase.
[05:18] <Jordan_U> CHIPSHANDON: Does your monitor display an error?
[05:18] <CHIPSHANDON> there is nothing
[05:18] <Alan502> i can access all drives from ubuntu n8tuser
[05:18] <norelpy> friends i can not open facebook videoswhat cani do
[05:19] <norelpy> i am using
[05:19] <CHIPSHANDON> blank
[05:19] <norelpy> ubuntu 9.04
[05:19] <Jordan_U> CHIPSHANDON: You can get to a terminal with ctrl+alt+F1
[05:19] <don-ii> now after i generate the key, and upload it to the server, do i need to change some setting on the server, or the client ?
[05:19] <CHIPSHANDON> i know
[05:19] <gilson> ?
[05:19] <KNY> what do I have to do to enable tab-completion on apt-get?
[05:19] <n8tuser> Alan502 -> then whats the issue?
[05:19] <arivu> http://pnaplinux.blogspot.com
[05:19] <CHIPSHANDON> I NEED THE COMMAND YOU GAVE ME EARLIER
[05:19] <Jordan_U> CHIPSHANDON: From the installed system it would be: sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf-bak /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:19] <lstarnes> !caps > CHIPSHANDON
[05:19] <arivu> refer this for your all ubuntu queries
[05:19] <CHIPSHANDON> OK
[05:19] <Alan502> n8tuser: i cant access D from windows
[05:19] <CHIPSHANDON> SORRY
[05:19] <CHIPSHANDON> im done
[05:19] <Alan502> n8tuser: just from ubuntu
[05:19] <CHIPSHANDON> im just mad
[05:19] <lstarnes> don-ii: you need to add the contents of ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub on the client to ~/.ssh/authorized_keys on the server
[05:20] <CHIPSHANDON> i miss my regular computer
[05:20] <n8tuser> Alan502 -> from ubuntu you can open files from /dev/sda5 with no problems ?
[05:20] <soreau> CHIPSHANDON: It will help a lot if you just calm down and let us help you
[05:20] <Alan502> yes
[05:20] <Alan502> it is only windows were i am struggling with
[05:20] <lstarnes> don-ii: the command for that on the client is cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub | ssh user@server "tee -a ~/.ssh/authorized_keys"
[05:20] <Alan502> but i think ubuntu installation there messed it up
[05:20] <pete__> Alan502, haha me too
[05:20] <soreau> CHIPSHANDON: What did you do that broke X?
[05:21] <CHIPSHANDON> i know man. i hope the command restores it. ill do it later
[05:21] <CHIPSHANDON> talkin to my girl on this usless pidgin
[05:21] <Jordan_U> soreau: X is broken when using a default ( or no ) xorg.conf
[05:21] <Alan502> haha damn windows pete__
[05:21] <pete__> CHIPSHANDON, pidgin is awesome!
[05:21] <CHIPSHANDON> kind of
[05:21] <soreau> Jordan_U: I see
[05:21] <CHIPSHANDON> but i thas a lot of flaws
[05:21] <tpeden> How do I get rid of this error: "Xlib:  extension "Generic Event Extension" missing on display "localhost:10.0"."
[05:21] <n8tuser> Alan502 -> i think its one of those that were not shutdown properly...
[05:22] <soreau> tpeden: What is giving you that message?
[05:22] <tpeden> I'm trying to use X11 Forwarding over ssh
[05:22] <Moon_Doggy> vbox anyone
[05:22] <Alan502> n8tuser: so what would be the solution then?
[05:22] <tpeden> any gui program run over ssh
[05:22] <Alan502> Moon_Doggy: try #vbox
[05:22] <CHIPSHANDON> i know you guys arent gonna like it, but i might have to revert this machine back to XP
[05:22] <Moon_Doggy> no luck
[05:23] <KNY> Moon_Doggy, start by stating the problem that you're having :)
[05:23] <n8tuser> Alan502 -> windows have chkdsk or some kind of utils to check the disk, run those
[05:23] <bucky> CHIPSHANDON, we don't care
[05:23] <KNY> bucky++
[05:23] <DronKot> what is happend
[05:23] <n8tuser> Alan502 -> or go to #windows to find out how
[05:23] <Alan502> n8tuser, i think you didnt read my post, i have done all this
[05:23] <Moon_Doggy> not my prob
[05:23] <Alan502> n8tuser: and nothing working
[05:23] <CHIPSHANDON> thanks for the support bucky
[05:23] <n8tuser> Alan502 -> you expect me to remember everything? hehe
[05:23] <Alan502> n8tuser: ok thanks
[05:23] <Moon_Doggy> magicblaze0071>	Am I missing something in the fstab entry: cdrive /C vboxsf rw,uid=1000,exec,nomand,users 0 0 --> Does not let user 1000 to mount this drive.
[05:24] <bucky> CHIPSHANDON, you get what you pay for
[05:24] <Moon_Doggy> magicblaze0071>	how do i let my users mount a vboxsf file system in linux?
[05:24] <CHIPSHANDON> who said anythng about paying
[05:24] <CHIPSHANDON> ????????
[05:24] <soreau> CHIPSHANDON: Asking for support while you're frustrated is probably the worst thing you can do. Try the command that was given to you and see if it works first
[05:24] <n8tuser> Alan502 -> also since you can access them from ubuntu, you may want to try to save or backup that partition?
[05:24] <eddy> random thought: if you ever wanna edit /etc/sudoers make sure you can 'su root' or you'll break sudo upon giving sudoers syntax errors, forcing you to boot into livecd and fix it again
[05:25] <CHIPSHANDON> too much problems with this
[05:25] <CHIPSHANDON> to keep asking
[05:25] <pete__> CHIPSHANDON, i have felt that way in previous releases
[05:25] <soreau> CHIPSHANDON: Then why are you here?
[05:25] <Myrtti> eddy: there's a better way to add sudoers than editing that file
[05:25] <JuanCarlos> CHIPSHANDON: calm down, ...and dont mess with the pidgin bird  ;p
[05:25] <CHIPSHANDON> to fix my screen
[05:25] <LordLandon> eddy: According to prophecy, that's why you use visudo - it'll check the syntax before commiting it.
[05:25] <Jordan_U> Myrtti: Add the users to the "admin" group
[05:25] <pete__> CHIPSHANDON, the people here will help you, but if you are not nice they will turn against you.
[05:25] <Alan502> n8tuser: yes i will do it i think, the thing is that i cannot even boot ubuntu now :/
[05:25] <tpeden> soreau: I take it you have no clue either? lol\
[05:25] <Alan502> n8tuser: dont know what happened
[05:25] <JuanCarlos> reinstall X, should fix it
[05:25] <CHIPSHANDON> im not being mean am i?????
[05:26] <soreau> tpeden: You never said what command gives you that message
[05:26] <CHIPSHANDON> :(
[05:26] <n8tuser> Alan502 -> thats a recent install isnt it? you can try to re-install
[05:26] <Myrtti> Jordan_U: yes, I know, it might be that eddy doesn't
[05:26] <tpeden> soreau: any gui app run over ssh
[05:26] <sebsebseb> tpeden: yes
[05:26] <JuanCarlos> tpeden: all GUI apps run over SSH
[05:26] <soreau> tpeden: Try DISPLAY=:0 appname
[05:27] <eddy> visudo eh, cool
[05:27] <soreau> tpeden: Or in your case, you might need to set DISPLAY=:10
[05:27] <Alan502> n8tuser: it is, i will i guess. But when i boot in live cd i can not get the graphical interface, just the ms-dos like screen
[05:28] <Jordan_U> Alan502: Even if you choose safe graphics mode?
[05:28] <CHIPSHANDON> maybe a different distro would work better. any suggestions?
[05:28] <n8tuser> Alan502 -> you can install from that too..
[05:28] <CHIPSHANDON> i was thinking of trying puppy
[05:28] <Alan502> n8tuser: how? whats the command?
[05:29] <soreau> CHIPSHANDON: All distributions of linux are able to use X. Avoiding the problem isn't helping. And ubuntu is probably the easiest to use WRT X
[05:29] <n8tuser> Alan502 -> what prompt do you get?
[05:29] <JuanCarlos> CHIPSHANDON: btw all are Linux, the same OS, diferent apps
[05:29] <CHIPSHANDON> wrt x?
[05:29] <Alan502> n8tuser: i just get the terminal
[05:29] <CHIPSHANDON> speak english
[05:29] <tpeden> soreau: tried both, couldn't find that display
[05:29] <n8tuser> Alan502 -> what prompt do you get?  even a terminal only.
[05:29] <tpeden> sebsebseb: what?
[05:29] <Jordan_U> CHIPSHANDON: With Reguard To
[05:29] <Alan502> mmm
[05:29] <tpeden> JuanCarlos: ok...
[05:30] <JuanCarlos> purgue and reinstall the ubuntu-desktop
[05:30] <Alan502> ubuntu@ubuntu?
[05:30] <bruenig> JuanCarlos: ubuntu-desktop is a dirty meta-package
[05:30] <bruenig> it will be of no help
[05:30] <CHIPSHANDON> i just wish i could figure out this resolution problem
[05:30] <JuanCarlos> well X
[05:30] <n8tuser> Alan502 -> umm i cant recall, but try /sbin/install
[05:30] <Alan502> ok thanks :D
[05:30] <sebsebseb> tpeden: What do you want to do?
[05:31] <quartknee> I'm running Jaunty and it won't install updates/update my distribution because of medibuntu files. Should I delete those files?
[05:31] <soreau> CHIPSHANDON: You haven't even tried the solution given to you yet because you're admittedly using the live cd
[05:31] <jimbeam12> hey all
[05:31] <CHIPSHANDON> because i messed up my current installation
[05:31] <sebsebseb> !welcome | jimbeam12
[05:31] <soreau> tpeden: Does 'ps ax|grep X' show X is in fact running?
[05:31] <jimbeam12> anyone know what the default setting is for the sources.list
[05:31] <Alan502> and btw n8tuser, do you know any program that can make a virtual cd burner drive? to create a factory recovery dvd with the utility the laptop came with... (it does not have a drive)
[05:31] <Jordan_U> soreau: The "solution" was to try using a default Xorg.conf, it failed to he had to revert back to his vesa xorg.conf
[05:32] <CHIPSHANDON> id try to do it nao, but im talking to my girl.
[05:32] <tpeden> sebsebseb: I'm trying to run gvim or redcar from my ubuntu server over ssh to edit some files using X11 Forwarding, but I get this error: Xlib:  extension "Generic Event Extension" missing on display "localhost:10.0".
[05:32] <CHIPSHANDON> thanks jordan
[05:32] <Jordan_U> soreau: For some reason X isn't working with the intel driver
[05:32] <tpeden> soreau: it's a headless box
[05:32] <soreau> Jordan_U: Why don't you have him pastebin X log?
[05:32] <sebsebseb> tpeden: can't really help with that
[05:32] <sebsebseb> !server | tpeden
[05:33] <sebsebseb> tpeden: the last bit
[05:33] <tpeden> soreau: I had the same problem on a ubuntu desktop at work too tho, that I know is running x cuz the desktop displays properly
[05:33] <sebsebseb> tpeden: and yes I can't help with that
[05:33] <Jordan_U> soreau: Because at the time he had never booted with the intel driver ( he used safe graphics mode on the LiveCD ) so there was nothing relavent
[05:33] <CHIPSHANDON> because the driver didnt work
[05:33] <tpeden> oh, didn't know that, thanks sebsebseb
[05:33] <soreau> tpeden: Well? There's your problem.. you can't ssh into a headless box not running X and try to run applications from it. If X was running on the box, running the application while ssh'd in would run it on that box, not the one you're ssh'ing from
[05:33] <sebsebseb> tpeden: np good luck
[05:34] <Bookman> Is there a program in the current repos that allows for remastering an current installation?
[05:34] <JuanCarlos> tpeden: ssh -X remote-user@remote-server-ip gvim
[05:34] <CHIPSHANDON> the driver doesnt work right
[05:34] <Jordan_U> soreau: I am not sure if it's easiest to have him fix his install and then pastebin, or walk him through mounting his root partition and pastebinning from the LiveCD
[05:34] <CHIPSHANDON> i forgot the name
[05:34] <tpeden> JuanCarlos: got that far thanks :-P
[05:34] <soreau> CHIPSHANDON: Can you pastebin /var/log/Xorg.1.log or Xorg.0.log.old, which ever one talks about (INTEL)?
[05:34] <n8tuser> Alan502 -> am not comprehending,  you have a copy of the or you want to copy which?
[05:34] <CHIPSHANDON> i have no idea
[05:35] <CHIPSHANDON> what the hell you just sadi
[05:35] <CHIPSHANDON> said*
[05:35] <soreau> Jordan_U: Well try to get an X log for the failed intel session
[05:35] <pshr_> well, going to write my mid semester exam in 1/2 hr ^_^
[05:35] <kamen1> Hey, anyone used e17 before with ubuntu
[05:35]  * pshr_ ...
[05:35] <CHIPSHANDON> she offline
[05:35] <sebsebseb> kamen1: very brifely  or whatever
[05:35] <CHIPSHANDON> im gonna try to run the command now
[05:35] <CHIPSHANDON> i need to write it down though
[05:35] <sebsebseb> !enter |  CHIPSHANDON
[05:35] <arivu> http://pnaplinux.blogspot.com
[05:35] <CHIPSHANDON> otayyyyyyyyy
[05:36] <kamen1> I can't install it on ubutnu ever guide I find is like 2 years old
[05:36] <CHIPSHANDON> im used to im'in alot
[05:36] <kamen1> I like e16 quite a bit
[05:36] <sebsebseb> kamen1: Which version of Ubuntu? and what guide?
[05:36] <kamen1> 9.01 I think
[05:36] <kamen1> the latest one
[05:36] <sebsebseb> kamen1: ah you mean only e17 in the repo and no e16?
[05:37] <kamen1> well I have e16 and I want e17
[05:37] <echosystm> is there any way to allow ubuntu to run a program as root without typing in a password?
[05:37] <Bloodstar> Alright, got things mostly working... except I need athfmwdl.inf to use my wireless adapter (TEW444-UB) apparently, yet I can't even seem to find it on my Windows partition
[05:37] <sebsebseb> !info enlightment
[05:37] <echosystm> i want to be able to turn off/on my wireless without putting in a password
[05:37] <sebsebseb> !info e17
[05:37] <bruenig> echosystm: add a NOPASSWD exception in /etc/sudoers
[05:37] <echosystm> cheers
[05:37] <Jordan_U> echosystm: Yes, but you need to be very carefull about security and not breaking your system
[05:37] <kamen1> that's too bad
[05:38] <sebsebseb> kamen1: it is in the repo one of them
[05:38] <echosystm> so you can do this for one program only?
[05:38] <echosystm> obviously i dont want to do it for everything
[05:38] <sebsebseb> kamen1: and maybe there's a ppa for an even later version
[05:38] <Like> hi gn
[05:38] <kamen1> what's a ppa
[05:38] <sebsebseb> !ppa > kamen1
[05:38] <Jordan_U> bruenig: Please don't suggest that without warning
[05:38] <n8tuser> echosystm -> what you mean by that, you can turn off the interface if thats what you mean
[05:38] <tpeden> !info enlightenment
[05:38] <echosystm> i dont maen through network manager
[05:39] <echosystm> i mean through iwconfig
[05:39] <sebsebseb> kamen1: a kind of mini repo in a way, but not that supported,  and then you can get later versions of programs
[05:39] <n8tuser> echosystm -> you can turn it of via ifdown
[05:39] <sebsebseb> kamen1: normalley they are on launchpad as well
[05:39] <echosystm> nono, i mean ACTUALLY turn it off
[05:39] <sebsebseb> kamen1: and then you add a ppa for the program you want, if there is one
[05:39] <bruenig> meh
[05:40] <n8tuser> echosystm -> whats the difference?
[05:40] <echosystm> saves battery if you turn it off properly
[05:40] <n8tuser> echosystm -> then you can unload the driver
[05:40] <sebsebseb> kamen1: and you can  probably compile e16 from source
[05:40] <echosystm> but not all wifi cars allow it
[05:40] <CHIPSHANDON> is this command gonna put it back in safe graphics mode?
[05:40] <n8tuser> !who | echosystm
[05:40] <Jordan_U> CHIPSHANDON: Yes
[05:41] <CHIPSHANDON> ok
[05:41] <echosystm> n8tuser: iwconfig ethX power off < this actually turns the chipset off entirely
[05:41] <n8tuser> echosystm -> okay, you already knew the command, so why not do it?
[05:42] <CHIPSHANDON> to be sure it is,     sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf-bak /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:42] <Jordan_U> CHIPSHANDON: Make sure you remember to capitalize the "X" ( /etc/X11/xorg.conf )
[05:42] <CHIPSHANDON> i know
[05:42] <echosystm> it needs to be run as root and i was just wasking how i can do this without putting in a password
[05:42] <CHIPSHANDON> look above
[05:42] <kamen1> why isn't there a version of e17 for the latest version of ubuntu?
[05:42] <Jordan_U> CHIPSHANDON: Yes
[05:42] <echosystm> i already have the answer (see above)
[05:43] <n8tuser> echosystm -> networking is a system resource that require a root access, so you need a root priviledge to turn it on/off
[05:43] <CHIPSHANDON> when do i press ctr alt dlt for the terminal. i was just pressing untill it popped up
[05:43] <echosystm> n8tuser unless you modify sudo... which you can and i am doing right now ;)
[05:43] <CHIPSHANDON> last time that is
[05:43] <kamen1> well then, how do I get internet to work on e16
[05:43] <n8tuser> echosystm -> yes you can put the user as member of networking group
[05:44] <CHIPSHANDON> good night, and good luck
[05:44] <n8tuser> echosystm -> and you can put command specific to a user in sudoers file
[05:44] <Jordan_U> CHIPSHANDON: When you hear the login sound, you can also choos "recovery mode" at boot to go strait to a terminal
[05:45] <roy_hobbs> Does anyone know how to get CGI working with webfsd?

[05:51] <skysong> ok ill reformat it then
[05:51] <skysong> however, i formatted a 100GB partition on ext 4 yesterday and it worked fine:/
[05:52] <echosystm> for the most part ext4 is fine
[05:52] <newser> hello, I've been trying to redirect internet traffic trough a shared network connection. I cannot make it to work can someone help me?
[05:52] <JuanCarlos> fsck on the disk, remember user cant mount, root can, use sudo to mount

[05:54] <Chips_Handon> im back
[05:55] <aleron> hahaha chips
[05:55] <Chips_Handon> it was a pain to get into a terminal though. i keep pressing things till i somehow got into the root terminal
[05:55] <Jordan_U> Chips_Handon: Ok, can you pastebin your /var/log/Xorg.1.log ?
[05:55] <Chips_Handon> im not even going there
[05:56] <Chips_Handon> ill live with 640x480 on a 27inch 16:9 television
[05:57] <Keaton> Okay here's my problem: My Windows partition just bit it hard (essential system .dll got corrupted) but both that partition and my external hard drive, both ntfs, are marked because they had an unclean unmount, so ubuntu won't mount them until I run chkdsk. But obviously, I can't run chkdsk because Windows is b0rked. Is there some other utility I can use that will do the job?
[05:57] <skysong> JuanCarlos, i tried your command, and got an error that the partition does not contain any ext2 filesystem
[05:57] <Guest73098> how do you download a software in ubuntu??????
[05:57] <Chips_Handon> how do you do the whole thing>>>>
[05:57] <xikteny> Guest73098: Try Application> Add/Remove
[05:58] <Chips_Handon> go to the add/remove in the applications menu
[05:58] <JuanCarlos> skysong: try options with --help parameter
[05:58] <skysong> ok
[05:58] <Guest73098> its of no help......
[05:58] <JuanCarlos> skysong: maybe you got errors, logical, phisical or both
[05:58] <xikteny> Guest73098: What problem are you having, exactly?
[05:59] <Guest73098> i hav da messenger .exe file but cant do anythin wid it........
[05:59] <xikteny> Guest73098: .exe files are Windows programs...
[05:59] <Chips_Handon> once again, thanks for the help jordan. you broke my computer, then you fixed it.
[05:59] <Chips_Handon> :)
[05:59] <chez> how do i stop ubuntu from checking for updates every day ?

[06:02] <skysong> anybody know that error?
[06:02] <skysong>  fsck -v
[06:02] <xikteny> Guest73098: You might also try using Pidgin (Applications>Internet>Pidgin) it is the default IM client of Ubuntu.
[06:02] <skysong> indecent@oraclerealm:~$ sudo vol_id /dev/sdb
[06:02] <skysong> unknown or non-unique volume type (--probe-all lists possibly conflicting types)

[06:03] <chez> eddy: it is greyed out
[06:04] <Chips_Handon> anybody?
[06:04] <Geoffrey2> I have to see the humor in this.....when I star Ubuntu I was continually frustrated and wondered, why don't I just go back to Windows and save myself the hassle...now I try to do something in Windows, and I end up deciding just to boot up Ubuntu instead
[06:04] <JuanCarlos> Guest73098: you need to install it first
[06:04] <eddy> chez, can you open software sources?
[06:04] <skysong> ah stupid me, nevermind, i missed a 1 from sbd ;)
[06:04] <Chips_Handon> Goeffrey2, i do the same thing
[06:04] <Guest73098> i don see it on da update list
[06:04] <Chips_Handon> everytime
[06:04] <chez> the settings button on the update manager is greyed out, how do i fix this
[06:04] <JuanCarlos> Guest73098: is not there, only updates of installed apps
[06:04] <Piethon> Will Ubuntu do shipit for ubuntu netbook remix?
[06:05] <eddy> chez, you must unlock it
[06:05] <xikteny> Guest73098: emesene is in the "universe" repo. You might have to add this repo, or you could use Pidgin :)
[06:05] <eddy> chez, just go to System > Admin > Software Sources and go to Update tab
[06:05] <chez> eddy:  i opened t using sudo but that didnt work
[06:05] <Geoffrey2> only question now is whether I go with the 64 bit version when the next version drops, or stick with the 32 bit version....
[06:05] <Chips_Handon> can anyone help me with the notification bar?
[06:05] <Jordan_U> Chips_Handon: Right click the pannel > Add to panel > notification area ( if I understand your problem correctly )

[06:19] <xikteny> Guest73098: Pidgin not working, either ? :(
[06:19] <Dr_Willis> Guest73098:  you may want to be a little more clear and verbose on what you are doing.
[06:20] <Dr_Willis> aleron:  'avi' is a container.. which can be of any of several dozen codecs..    ffmpeg is commonly used by many other tools to handle video conversio ntasks.
[06:20] <Guest73098> ok i tried applications >internet>pidgin............

[06:28] <Guest53116> no i dont..........
[06:28] <Drained> !sap
[06:28] <Drained> !nozap
[06:28] <Drained> darn
[06:28] <ZoeyMarie> Beast (an audio program) isn't recognizing my PCM device (though all other sound stuff is working). How do I fix this?
[06:29] <sayed> Hey guys, I have a laptop HP dv6 and Ubuntu detects my sound card but for some reason I can neither capture nor playback any sound- anyone able to help me out with this?
[06:29] <Drained> !dontzap
[06:29] <Drained> THERE it is.
[06:29] <xikteny> brbGuest53116: : Hmmm, open a Terminal "Applications>Accesories>Terminal" type pidgin <enter>, does it say anything weird? I really don't know why it wouldn't even run...
[06:30] <xwin> Linux command question:  I inserted Ubuntu live CD & wanna copy C: drive /media/disk to USB-connected Fujitsu_HD /media/Fujitsu.  Can I copy all contents of C: with   cp /media/disk/ * -rf /media/Fujitsu <CR> ?
[06:31] <Drained> xwin you should be able too
[06:31] <JuanCarlos> cp -rf /media/disk/* /media/Fujitsu
[06:32] <Drained> anyone know the TTY command to restart X?
[06:32] <lstarnes> Drained: if you're using gdm, sudo invoke-rc.d gdm restart
[06:33] <Jordan_U> Drained: sudo invoke-rc.d gdm restart
[06:33] <digifor> Which gui uses the least resources?
[06:33] <Drained> thanks guys.
[06:33] <lstarnes> digifor: X with no window managers
[06:33] <Guest10487> xitkey it said nothing
[06:33] <Drained> Digifor: try Versa
[06:33] <ZoeyMarie> Beast (an audio program) isn't recognizing my PCM device (though all other sound stuff is working). How do I fix this?
[06:33] <vttr> i want to install 9.10 on a netbook using unetbootin, but all i get after unetbootin completes is a few bootloader files on my usb drive ... any ideas?
[06:33] <lstarnes> digifor: openbox and fluxbox are rather lightweight
[06:33] <LogicFan> !flash
[06:33] <xwin> I login 'sudo xterm &' then 'cd /media/Fujitsu' then 'cp /media/disk * -rf /media/Fujitsu' and looks like copying still ungoing...
[06:34] <LogicFan> ever since i upgraded to FF 3.5, i have flash problems :P
[06:34] <Drained> Vttr: that's what's supposed to happen
[06:34] <Chen_long> irc://irc.ubuntu.com.cn
[06:34] <Jordan_U> vttr: #ubuntu +1 for help testing 9.10
[06:34] <vttr> Drained: but i do not see the iso contents
[06:34] <lstarnes> Chen_long: I think you want to use /join #ubuntu-cn
[06:34] <digifor> lstarnes, I was thinking along those lines. x without a window manager might be a challenge :)
[06:34] <xikteny> Guest10487: ... that shouldn't happen try 'pidgin -d'
[06:34] <Drained> vttr: because it wouldn't be the same type of format i would assume... it's a flash drive
[06:34] <vttr> on reboot i get an empty menu called default
[06:34] <DigitalKiwi> dwm probably uses the least resources
[06:34] <bdigital> digifor: twm?
[06:35] <ZoeyMarie> Beast (an audio program) isn't recognizing my PCM device (though all other sound stuff is working). How do I fix this?
[06:35] <Guest10487> its saying command not found
[06:35] <vttr> Drained: on 9.04 it fills up the drive with 700 mb of iso files ... but with 9.10 it doesnt
[06:35] <Drained> vttr: how did you use unetbootin did you use the selectable menu and let it download on it's own, or did you use your own iso?
[06:35] <DigitalKiwi> bdigital: oh i assumed he wanted something useable
[06:35] <lstarnes> Guest10487: are you using it without the ' marks?
[06:35] <vttr> i downloaded the iso myself
[06:35] <digifor> thanks DigitalKiwi and bdigital googling those and versa
[06:35] <scap> I just asked this in the fluxbox channel but I have fluxbox installed with xgl in 9.04 but I am having the problem that when I maximize windows that it spans all my monitors. Does anyone know how to fix this issue?
[06:35] <JuanCarlos> ZoeyMarie: run the program from Terminal, to see whats wrong
[06:35] <Drained> vttr: have you tried to re-do it? sometimes kinks in the process mess up.
[06:35] <vttr> yes
[06:35] <ZoeyMarie> JuanCarlos, I already did. You want me to pastebin it?
[06:36] <Drained> vttr: Well, i'm stummped i don't know what to tell ya..
[06:36] <JuanCarlos> ZoeyMarie: also try --verbose  or --debug parameters
[06:36] <Guest10487> i used it but it still the same
[06:36] <vttr> anyone know where can i get support on unetbootin?
[06:36] <DigitalKiwi> digifor: any particular reason you want extremely low resources? there are a few other lightweight window managers which are awesome as well
[06:36] <vttr> or any other way to get Koala on a usb bootable drive?
[06:36] <xikteny> Guest10487: you typed pidgin<space>-d<enter> ?
[06:37] <ZoeyMarie> JuanCarlos: do I type "parameters" or is there something I should put there? :/
[06:37] <Guest10487> its still the same
[06:37] <JuanCarlos> beast --verbose or beast --debug
[06:38] <scap> join #xgl
[06:38] <vttr> ubottu: unetbootin
[06:38] <lstarnes> scap: /join #xgl
[06:38] <JuanCarlos> Koala on a usb bootable drive, with Koala CD
[06:38] <xwin> I wanna multiboot Ubuntu 9 with XP Pro in my HP Pavilion DV2000 laptop 80GB, how big is the Ubuntu installation?
[06:38] <vttr> JuanCarlos: yes
[06:38] <scap> lstarnes, lol yea i got it
[06:39] <JuanCarlos> xwin: at least 4Gb for ubuntu install
[06:39] <vttr> i have the ISO
[06:39] <lstarnes> xwin: about 4 GB, but you will most likely need more than that if you use it often
[06:39] <ZoeyMarie> JuanCarlos: I tried both, and neither is giving me info. on the PCM error.... I tried beast --bse-debug=pcm and it'll spit out a bunch of PCM garble... but I don't know what it is.
[06:39] <mezquitale> anyone knows if you can download the beta version using ftp?
[06:40] <xwin> JuanCarlos: his excellency { just kidding } thanks...
[06:40] <JuanCarlos> !Beast
[06:40] <JuanCarlos> :(
[06:40] <JuanCarlos> what?
[06:41] <Fednux> download bt ?
[06:41] <xwin> JuanCarlos:  just kidding.  you're not king of Spain?  :-(
[06:41] <JuanCarlos> ZoeyMarie: Beast is not supported by Ubuntu, maybe you can try beast developers support
[06:41] <ZoeyMarie> There is some info on the errors that I'm getting, but it's not very informative...
[06:42] <ZoeyMarie> It comes prepackaged on ubuntustudio..
[06:42] <myownserver> What's the command line command to check a file or folder's current read/write settings?
[06:42] <ZoeyMarie> JuanCarlos: I have no idea where to look for support except here (since it was packaged with ubuntustudio)
[06:43] <cabaro> myownserver: ls -la
[06:43] <xikteny> myownserver: ls -l
[06:43] <myownserver> Thank you.
[06:43] <JuanCarlos> weird, i dont find it on repos :(
[06:43] <xwin> brb...
[06:44] <ZoeyMarie> shrugs. :(
[06:44] <JuanCarlos> im king of Localhost domain
[06:44] <vttr> hi does unetbootin usb creator support karmic koala alpha 5? all i get after giving it the iso i downloaded is the bootmanager ... and no koala contents on usb drive.. any ideas?
[06:44] <JuanCarlos> vttr: use the built-in
[06:45] <JuanCarlos> vttr: Koala got his own USB creator
[06:45] <vttr> JuanCarlos: what builtin ... i do not have a cd drive .. this is a netbook
[06:45] <GothFreak27> my sytem specs are atom330 dual core processor, gma 950 video, will this run compiz at 1080p resolution?(1920x1080)
[06:45] <amites> Anyone know how to remove the force quit window from my screen?
[06:45] <vttr> JuanCarlos: ?
[06:46] <amites> I used the force quit app to kill a program and now the instruction window is stuck on screen
[06:46] <n30n_hal0> I just bought a Hawking HWDN2 Directional Wireless N antenna that uses the RT2870 chipset. Where can I find drivers for it? Ive tried Google and found mostly frustrations.
[06:46] <JuanCarlos> vttr: i got netbook too, i build my USB flash drive with the iso and virtualbox-ose, booting from the iso, build the usb drive
[06:46] <cabaro> amites: ps aux   check process id and then kill -9 1234  where 1234 is the process id
[06:46] <losher> vttr: can you try it with something a little less bleeding edge than karmic alpha?
[06:46] <JuanCarlos> you got OS on the netbook?
[06:47] <vttr> losher: it works well with 9.04
[06:47] <vttr> JuanCarlos: yes both windows and ubuntu 9.04
[06:47] <amites> cabaro: I don't know what the process is named
[06:47] <JuanCarlos> vttr: use a VM
[06:47] <vttr> JuanCarlos: does virtualbox support usb devices ? last time i tried it gave me a headache :)
[06:47] <cabaro> amites: what is the offending program?
[06:48] <lstarnes> vttr: sun's version does
[06:48] <JuanCarlos> from virtualbox.org yes, from repos no
[06:48] <scott> How come Ubuntu leave intricate patterns of thread in the hems of my denim when when I step on the pedal?
[06:48] <amites> "force quit" button from the panel
[06:48] <cabaro> amites: you could try     top c
[06:48] <JuanCarlos> dont install the vm, only boot
[06:48] <vttr> ok JuanCarlos
[06:48] <vttr> so boot from iso in virtualbox and click usb creater? then what?
[06:49] <vttr> usb creator = unetbootin?
[06:49] <n30n_hal0> Never mind, I found the drivers: http://www.ralinktech.com/support.php?s=2
[06:49] <lstarnes> scott: I think you have ubuntu confused with an embroidering apparatus of some sort
[06:49] <scott> oh.
[06:50] <scott> I was wondering why I couldn't get my iPOD to work.
[06:50] <xwin> I booted Ubuntu 9.4 live CD and wanna install Ubuntu.  Is there way to resize 66 GB partition while booted on Ubuntu live CD to reallocate Ubuntu install?
[06:50] <JuanCarlos> usb creator = Koala USB
[06:50] <cabaro> amites: try xkill
[06:50] <deena> Hi
[06:50] <lstarnes> JuanCarlos: it's usually called karmic, not koala
[06:50] <Dr_Willis> xwin:  install,use gparted.
[06:51] <deena> Choppy performance of Flash Player 10 at fullscreen playback
[06:51] <vttr> alright JuanCarlos  ... i dont believe i am installing virtualbox on my netbook lol
[06:51] <vttr> good times
[06:51] <deena> any idea on this to get rid of it
[06:51] <zooko> Thanks everyone.  Catch me in #tahoe.
[06:51] <JuanCarlos> deena: try Blachbit
[06:52] <losher> deena: I don't know any any version of flash player on any version of ubuntu that performs properly in fullscreen mode
[06:52] <JuanCarlos> deena: Bleachbit
[06:52] <sayed> Is anyone capable of helping me with my sound issue?
[06:52] <vttr> hey one more thing .. is there anything bad/ broken in the 64 bit version of karmic .. i should be aware of ? like does flash/ java work?
[06:52] <Steil> yup\]
[06:52] <scott> sayed: What's going on?
[06:52] <shawn_> Do any of you know how to get a free version of Crossover Pro?
[06:52] <lstarnes> vttr: someone in #ubuntu+1 likely knows
[06:52] <Steil> shawn_: you can't
[06:52] <vttr> tnx lstarnes
[06:53] <Steil> there no free v erwionn
[06:53] <sayed> scott: Fresh install of Ubuntu on my laptop, everything from the media buttons to the function keys to the webcam works and the sound devices are detected however I'm hearing no sound whatsoever.
[06:53] <shawn_> Steil: I know you can because Ive had it before
[06:53] <JuanCarlos> vttr: im on Koala, Java OK, Flash OK
[06:53] <Steil> shawn_: Thats called software piracy,,
[06:53] <Steil>  w
[06:53] <Steil>
[06:53] <xikteny> !piracy | shawn_
[06:53] <vttr> JuanCarlos: good .. u get flash from adobe? or repos? v10?
[06:53] <losher> vttr: karmic support is on #ubuntu+1 I think
[06:54] <JuanCarlos> all from repos
[06:54] <shawn_> ubottu I didnt pirate it.... A friend gave me a link to his corporate website which had it for download or something
[06:54] <shawn_> Ah
[06:54] <vttr> ok ty .. ok losher i am in that room .. but this room is more responsive :)
[06:54] <scott> sayed: There's a couple things we could try. Try installing "pavucontrol" from the repositories.
[06:54] <JuanCarlos> Crossover sources are free to download from the site last time i check it
[06:54] <shawn_> I just need some way to install microsoft word on linux
[06:54] <shawn_> Ive done it before fine
[06:55] <scott> sayed: You might have to select your audio device from that application.
[06:55] <JuanCarlos> shawn_:  Try PlayOnLinux
[06:55] <lstarnes> shawn_: it might work in wine or crossover
[06:56] <sayed> scott: Installing
[06:56] <xwin> brb, now installing Ubunrtu 9 in my HP Pavilion DV2109NR...
[06:56] <xwin> brb
[06:56] <sayed> scott: So I just run pavucontrol from the command line?
[06:56] <JuanCarlos> i installed many times office 2003 with playonlinux, works ok
[06:56] <scott> sayed: Yep, and it should open the application
[06:56] <sayed> scott: I get an error message "connection failed: connection refused"
[06:57] <scott> sayed: Hrmmm...
[06:57] <scott> sayed: Okay, let's go to "System" >> "Preferences">> "Sound"
[06:58] <sayed> Done
[06:58] <scott> sayed: Already tried that?
[06:58] <sayed> scott: I mean I'm there
[06:58] <losher> shawn_: reported to work in wine -- http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=10
[06:59] <scott> sayed: Oh, okay. Try selecting your actual device instead of "auto detect"
[07:00] <sayed> scott: Yep, nothing but silence
[07:00] <shawn_> Should I just install wine then>
[07:00] <scott> sayed: What's the model of your laptop?
[07:00] <Teclys> shawn_: I don't know if anyone has said this already, but why not just migrate to OpenOffice?
[07:00] <sayed> scott: HP dv6, amd64
[07:00] <CodeWar> we need to use a minimal linux installation across our labs for chip bringup. the chip has a very simple driver that does read/write to the register space based on user mode requests. the bulk of the driver logic is in a user mode app(this is not a production driver so security is not a concern).
[07:01] <shawn_> Teclys: Because it doesnt have all the same features
[07:01] <CodeWar> I m exploring if the kernel mode driver can be written such taht it works across a large spectrum of kernel versions such taht people can install whatever distribution they need and just load this driver
[07:01] <sayed> scott: Hold on, I'll get the exact model, one second
[07:01] <Teclys> shawn_: what features doesn't it have that you need?
[07:01] <shawn_> Teclys: Thing such as the automatically updating table of contents and small things like that
[07:02] <Teclys> shawn_: ah okay, i've never done such a thing on either MS or OO. definitely go with wine. it should work perfectly
[07:02] <shawn_> Alrighty is WIne free
[07:02] <sayed> scott: DV6-1264CA
[07:02] <lstarnes> shawn_: yes
[07:02] <scott> sayed: Was it working in Ubuntu before? And if so, which build:?
[07:03] <sayed> scott: No, brand new laptop
[07:03] <losher> shawn_: start with wine as it's free. If that doesn't work, you can start spending money on more expensive solutions...
[07:03] <shawn_> losher: Where do I get Wine
[07:03] <losher> !wine
[07:04] <scott> sayed: Are you using 9.04?
[07:04] <JuanCarlos> !playonlinux
[07:04] <losher> shawn_: see above. Start with the repository version, it may be all you need...
[07:04] <JuanCarlos> lol, theres on Karmic already
[07:04] <sayed> scott: Yes
[07:04] <losher> sayed: 9.04 is notorious for sound problems...
[07:04] <losher> !sound
[07:05] <sayed> losher: Apparently.
[07:05] <scott> sayed: Did you try running "alsamixer" in the terminal, and setting all the sliders to maximum to see if you get any sound?
[07:05] <ToastedSalad> my bluetooth mouse isnt working even though it's listed under 'Known Devices' in Bluetooth Preferences.
[07:05] <Steil> hey
[07:05] <losher> sayed: if all else fails, 8.04 LTS...
[07:05] <sayed> scott: Yes
[07:05] <sayed> losher: LTS?
[07:06] <Steil> is there a ubuntu netbook remix shit that i can write to a usbdrive?
[07:06] <Steil> sayed: long term support
[07:06] <shawn_> Okay I installed Wine now how do I use it
[07:06] <shawn_> It just says Browse C drive
[07:06] <sayed> Steil: Is there a way to downgrade?
[07:06] <JuanCarlos> whats remix shit?
[07:06] <losher> !wine | shawn_
[07:06] <ToastedSalad> hello?
[07:07] <sayed> ToastedSalad: Hello!
[07:07] <losher> ToastedSalad: we can hear you. But I don't know anything about your particular problem...
[07:08] <losher> !patience
[07:08] <scott> !foo
[07:10] <dios_mio> my ubuntu changes resolution when starting up.. i hate it.. how can i make it start with 1024x768 from the very start?
[07:10] <JuanCarlos> lol
[07:11] <JuanCarlos> !bar
[07:11] <^mNotIntelligent> hi all!
[07:11] <JuanCarlos> dios_mio: maybe in Karmic...
[07:11] <JuanCarlos> hi
[07:11] <causasui> How can I change the default file manager in ubuntu?
[07:11] <^mNotIntelligent> having problem with resume from disk on dell studio 1555 jaunty , any idea on that?
[07:12] <Dr_Willis> causasui:  not very easially from what ive read..
[07:12] <causasui> Dr_Willis: What have you read?
[07:12] <losher> ^mNotIntelligent: how much RAM do you have? And how much swap?
[07:12] <Dr_Willis> causasui:  nautilus is also in charge of the default desktop/icons.. so if you are not carefull you still end up launchingit.
[07:13] <losher> causasui: what do you want to change it to?
[07:13] <Dr_Willis> causasui:  i looked up that 'how to change default file manager in gnome' on the forums and google.. and found a lot of info .. that  boiled down to ' this sort of works.. but i had issues'
[07:13] <causasui> losher: konqueror, which is already installed and working
[07:13] <Dr_Willis> causasui:  i saw some scripts that were supposed to change it to/from konqueror.
[07:13] <causasui> Dr_Willis: Where?
[07:14] <Dr_Willis> on google/ubuntu forums.
[07:14] <Dr_Willis> and no i ddient bookmark them :)
[07:14] <zhjiang> hey, are there many people here use tty only (without x) for their daily work?
[07:14] <^mNotIntelligent> losher, 4 gig ram but my current kernel sees only 3 gig and swap 1.5 gig
[07:14] <Dr_Willis> zhjiang:  probelry are. :)  it depends on their work.
[07:15] <Igramul> Hi, since I connected to a server using sftp, Ubuntu keeps asking me for the password to my private ssh key every time I log in and every time I open the file browser. How can I turn that off?
[07:15] <causasui> Dr_Willis: Well, thanks for your help I guess, but that doesnt do me much good then
[07:15] <lstarnes> Igramul: does the server have your public key in your ~/.ssh/authorized_keys ?
[07:15] <losher> ^mNotIntelligent: my understanding is that for suspend/resume, the swap partition must be equal or greater to the size of RAM, since it basically copies RAM to swap when it suspends...
[07:15] <Anthrax> how do i install winetrix 2.0 on ubuntu?
[07:16] <gusty> use synaptic
[07:16] <Igramul> lstarnes, yes - but I do not want to connect to the server at all, e.g. all I want is to access my USB drive.
[07:16] <zhjiang> Dr_Willis: I'm trying to do that for fun, but found it irritates my eyes. Just wondering if there are any configuration that can help
[07:16] <^mNotIntelligent> losher, quite possible, but when i did a fresh install of jaunty a month ago it was working fine...then something went wrong...i've not done any changes to swap space either
[07:17] <Teclys> i have a machine running 9.10 alpha 3, is there an easy way to upgrade to alpha 5?
[07:17] <losher> ^mNotIntelligent: dunno then, sorry...
[07:17] <zhjiang> Dr_Willis: have any idea?
[07:17] <^mNotIntelligent> losher, no probs...thanks
[07:17] <lstarnes> Teclys: what does lsb_release say your version is?
[07:17] <lstarnes> Teclys: sorry, lsb_release -a
[07:17] <lstarnes> Igramul: I'm not sure how to do that.  you likely have to remove that from your automount settings or something like that
[07:18] <JuanCarlos> karmic countdown banner serie 2 ready :)
[07:18] <Teclys> Istarnes: unfortunately I just shut that machine down haha. ill reboot it in a bit
[07:19] <vraa_> i have an issue regarding my ubuntu server, it has 4 onboard gigabit lan ports, when it is booting it hangs on the network portion, i have to press ctrl+alt+del and it skips and continues
[07:19] <lstarnes> Teclys: I think it updates whenever you do a package update
[07:19] <vraa_> however my internet works fine once i'm logged into the computer
[07:19] <vraa_> how could i go about diagnosing this, using ssh, without rebooting the machine, lol
[07:19] <losher> zhjiang: once up a time I used to dial in using a vt100 and a 2400 baud modem, and was the envy of my friends because I could work at home. But really, having multiple xterms is such a blessing that I wouldn't give it up 'for fun'. I don't run a desktop though...
[07:19] <Teclys> ahh okay, thank you
[07:19] <Dr_Willis> zhjiang:  set a differnt font, and the frambuffer freature of the console can set up higher res/different sized fonts.
[07:19] <gusty> does anyone know what the annotate, splash and benchmark utilities do?
[07:20] <Igramul> lstarnes, maybe the file browser connects to all bookmarks for some weird reason...
[07:20] <Dr_Willis> zhjiang:  also learn to use screen. and theres some other 'terminal multiplexer' tool for the console thats worth checking out.
[07:20] <JuanCarlos> splash does the splash screen
[07:20] <JuanCarlos> benchmark do hardware benchmarks
[07:20] <Drained> can anyone tell me where i can find xorg.conf
[07:21] <lstarnes> Drained: /etc/X11/xorg.conf usually
[07:21] <Igramul> Drained, /etc/X11
[07:21] <losher> vraa_: it's hard to diagnose network problems when you're logged in over the network via ssh. Ideally, you need console access...
[07:21] <Drained> thanks guys
[07:21] <gusty> JuanCarlos: What about the annotate plugin? Thanks
[07:21] <vraa_> yes that makes sense, it's just i wasnt at my workstation, had a few hrs to kill, was wondering if anyone knew what might've been the issue
[07:21] <vraa_> it makes it difficult to do "apt-get update && apt-get upgrade" remotely
[07:22] <vraa_> because when the restart happens, it does not get back successfully
[07:22] <vic> hello everyone
[07:22] <JuanCarlos> hi
[07:22] <Drained> guys is this correct
[07:22] <Drained> Section "Device"
[07:22] <Drained> 	Identifier	"Configured Video Device"
[07:22] <Drained> 	Driver   	"nvidia"
[07:22] <Drained> EndSection
[07:22] <FloodBot2> Drained: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:22] <dios_mio> my ubuntu changes resolution when starting up.. i hate it.. how can i make it start with 1024x768 from the very start?
[07:23] <losher> vraa_: from the *console*, I would start by doing /etc/init.d/network restart and see if it runs...
[07:23] <vraa_> lol
[07:23] <vraa_> okay then i shall have to do that in the morning
[07:23] <Anthrax> how do i install winetrix 2.0 on ubuntu?
[07:23] <JuanCarlos> winetricks?
[07:23] <losher> vraa_: tonight, you could check the /etc/network/interfaces file and see what it says to do with the interfaces
[07:24] <zhjiang> Dr_Willis: I'm using fbterm, it seems I can set font, and size, etc.. But I don't feel it helps. The problem is if I set brightness to low, I can't see things clearly because it's too dark, but if I set brightness higher, my eyes get hurt after a while. Wondering in old days, how programmers tolerate black screen without GUI
[07:24] <bionicjoe> Blast off. Nuke it from orbit.
[07:24] <JuanCarlos> !moo
[07:24] <^mNotIntelligent> losher, one more information regarding that suspend/resume prob: when i resume i noticed that if some audio or video was running i can still listen the audio even the key for baklight keyboard works fine..just the monitor is off...so i guess resume is not able to switch on the display after resume, any thoughts?
[07:24] <JuanCarlos> lol
[07:25] <vraa_> http://pastebin.com/m39bad4cc - i have to learn how to decipher that so give me a few minutes as i do some googling
[07:25] <losher> ^mNotIntelligent: sorry, you need someone smarter than me to solve that...
[07:26] <Anthrax> just type lsb_release-a
[07:26] <Anthrax> for winetricks
[07:26] <losher> vraa_: I only see config for eth2 via dhcp. Are the other interfaces even being used? Try: sudo ifconfig -a
[07:27] <JuanCarlos> Anthrax: Winetricks is a bash script, it does not install
[07:27] <JuanCarlos> Anthrax: just run it
[07:27] <Anthrax> its not finding it
[07:27] <Dr_Willis> zhjiang:  i used to work on amigas with interlace mode.. and a refresh rate of 30 :)  - You wimpy kids these days.. heh..
[07:27] <Anthrax> i think i typed it wrong
[07:27] <ccfontes> hi
[07:27] <vraa_> http://pastebin.com/m1a421cf9 -- it seems like eth2 is the one that is plugged in
[07:27] <Dr_Willis> zhjiang:  back in the day of using a TV for the monitor.
[07:28] <ccfontes> is this the adequate help channel for eeebuntu?
[07:28] <Drained> Shoot, Well sometimes X messes up with kernel upgrades right? how do i fix it? Soreau helped me earlier but it messed up again
[07:28] <JuanCarlos> chmod +x ./winetricks ; sh ./winetricks
[07:28] <bionicjoe> I'm sorry Dr_Willis. Did we step on your lawn?
[07:29] <Dr_Willis> bionicjoe:  :) and turn down that music! :)
[07:29] <Drained> can anyone tell me the equivilent to ipconfig on ubuntu terminal?
[07:29] <Dr_Willis> Drained:  ifconfig
[07:29] <soreau> Drained: If you have any issues with compiz, please ask in #compiz
[07:29] <lstarnes> Drained: ifconfig
[07:29] <Drained> thanks
[07:29] <losher> zhjiang: sounds like eyestrain. Have your vision checked, use a larger font, and try different colors...
[07:30] <Drained> it's not compiz tho soreau :D it's nvidia's driver :3
[07:30] <navetz> can someone please help me reinstall my sound to the way it was when i upgraded to 9.04?
[07:30] <soreau> Drained: We tend to help a lot with driver issues in #compiz since they need to be installed correctly as a prerequisite for compiz
[07:30] <navetz> i need to reinstall the sound drivers or config files :S
[07:31] <losher> vraa_: the unused interfaces should probably be configured to be 'down'. Sorry, dunno how you do that in the interfaces file....
[07:31] <zhjiang> losher: I found all other bg colors on tty sucks, black is slightly better. I don't have much choice. Only eight of them.
[07:32] <ccfontes> well, Ill ask anyway. I have an integrated 3g modem. when I use Network Manager to create a new configuration, I choose NTTdocomo, which is my isp. I assume it sets the right configurations for this isp. then when connecting it disconnects itself imediately. I have pin code on. may it be this the issue?
[07:32] <losher> zhjiang: doesn't sound like fun to me...
[07:32] <ToastedSalad> my bluetooth mouse isnt working even though it's listed under 'Known Devices' in Bluetooth Preferences.
[07:33] <bionicjoe> Bluetooth is the greatest tech ever. And never ever fails
[07:33] <zhjiang> losher: you will be fun if it can be solved......I'm that kind of jerk who wishes to throw away X completely...Because that's very cool
[07:33] <leaf-sheep> ToastedSalad: What mouse?
[07:33] <ToastedSalad> microsoft 5000
[07:34] <zhjiang> losher: sorry, typo, "it will be fun if it can be solved'
[07:34] <leaf-sheep> ToastedSalad: "sudo aptitude install bluez-compat"
[07:35] <leaf-sheep> ToastedSalad: Then -- "sudo hidd --search"
[07:35] <losher> zhjiang: why stop at X? Might as well stop using electricity too....
[07:35] <Jordan_U> ccfontes: Would you mind filing a bug report?
[07:36] <ToastedSalad> Can't create HID interrupt channel: Connection refused
[07:37] <leaf-sheep> ToastedSalad: Uh.. Hold the mouse button -- Making a connection and stuffs.
[07:37] <Ben64> !10.04
[07:37] <Ben64> !10.04 is Lucid Lynx
[07:37] <Jordan_U> ccfontes: If you are, you can file a bug report with standard information for the developers with "ubuntu-bug network-manager"
[07:37] <ToastedSalad> leaf-sheep: what are you talking about!
[07:38] <leaf-sheep> ToastedSalad: The silly Bluetooth button.  Hold it down.
[07:38] <ToastedSalad> you mean the button that broadcasts the device's presence?
[07:39] <sarthorks> how do i paste multiple lines of code on irc?
[07:39] <losher> !paste
[07:39] <Ben64> sarthor: use pastebin, or paste.ubuntu.com
[07:39] <leaf-sheep> ToastedSalad: Sure. Bluetooth. Yes. Connecting. Try the hidd --search command when it's flashing.
[07:40] <zhjiang> losher: good point. I don't why myself. Just wish to be able to do everything using command. And get ride of unnecessary parts. I guess I'm a strange person then.
[07:40] <ToastedSalad> Can't create HID interrupt channel: Connection refused
[07:40] <crazy6> is there some special step I have to take to get PCMCIA working in ubuntu? I just plugged in a wifi card, and lspci lists it, but there's not new device when I do iwconfig
[07:40] <losher> zhjiang: I think it was a fine idea up till it started giving you a headache, at which point it turned into a liability...
[07:41] <Hawaiian_Eskimo> the strangest thing just popped up in the terminal... http://yfrog.com/09iwillcontractararediseap
[07:41] <fahadsadah> Hawaiian_Eskimo: That's a fortune
[07:41] <^mNotIntelligent> crazy6, does the system load correspoding frimware? check using dmesg
[07:41] <fahadsadah> Type the command fortune to get one
[07:41] <Hawaiian_Eskimo> i don't like my fortune :(
[07:42] <sarthorks> Ben64 ok i have pasted it on paste.ubuntu.com. now what shouuld i do? paste it directly in the text box here?

[07:43] <leaf-sheep> ToastedSalad: Pair it. Try the command.
[07:43] <fahadsadah> Hawaiian_Eskimo: And, the one you saw there was "fortune | cowsay -f tux"
[07:43] <^mNotIntelligent> crazy6, then first we've to ensure that the correspoding drivers are loaded properly when you plugin the device
[07:44] <ToastedSalad> leaf-sheep: which one?

[07:45] <^mNotIntelligent> pradeep, dont shout...we got it...and no Ads plz
[07:45] <pradeep> ok
[07:46] <ToastedSalad> leaf-sheep: Can't create HID interrupt channel: Connection refused
[07:46] <heartbeats> any body know how to install idle for python 3.1.1
[07:46] <pradeep> ^mNotIntelligent : The site does not contain ad's

[07:47] <leaf-sheep> ToastedSalad: Hold down the Bluetooth mouse (button) to make it visible and do the command.
[07:47] <crazy6> ^mNotIntelligent: lshw shows it, but not doing lsmod | grep ath
[07:47] <ToastedSalad> i don't have to make it visible, it already sees it.
[07:47] <pradeep> ^mNotIntelligent : k sorry
[07:48] <bullgard4> What configuration files have I to copy to another computer in order to duplicate the configuration of seamonkey-chatzilla?
[07:48] <crdlb> heartbeats: A) how did you get python 3.1? and B) why aren't you using 2.6?
[07:48] <^mNotIntelligent> crazy6, try googling the firmware/driver for your h/w and load that manually using modprobe
[07:49] <leaf-sheep> ToastedSalad: Okay. You have the supported package for your mouse.  Now you have to figure out how to connect with it. Just try it. Really.
[07:50] <zhjiang> losher: I have another problem. When I swith from X/tty to tty/X, the brightness of my monitor suddenly drops to very low. I have to adjust it myself. It drops again after I do another switch. Have any ideas?
[07:50] <ToastedSalad> leaf-sheep: it isn't that kind of a button, all you have to do is press it once and the connection light flashes green-red-green-red
[07:50] <Anthrax> hey... how do i switch virtual work spaces, whats the shortcut
[07:50] <pradeep> ^mNotIntelligent : are u familiar with nvidia drivers for ubuntu, i have a small problem
[07:50] <leaf-sheep> ToastedSalad: Right. Then you run the command to try and connect.
[07:50] <lstarnes> Anthrax: ctrl+alt+left-arrow or ctrl+alt+right-arror
[07:50] <crazy6> ^mNotIntelligent: hrm, a forum post says I should install compat-wireless, which apparently is not an available package
[07:51] <lstarnes> *arrow
[07:51] <losher> zhjiang: sorry, no idea....
[07:51] <Anthrax> kk thx
[07:51] <Anthrax> forgot

[07:52] <ankit__> which nvidia card u have
[07:52] <ankit__> ??
[07:52] <^mNotIntelligent> crazy6, may be you have to get that package from outside if that is not in the repo...
[07:52] <crazy6> ^mNotIntelligent: oh, holy hell, I just needed to manually modprobe ath5k ...
[07:52] <zhjiang> Does anyone have any ideas about the following: I have another problem. When I swith from X/tty to tty/X, the brightness of my monitor suddenly drops to very low. I have to adjust it myself. It drops again after I do another switch? Thanks

[07:54] <^mNotIntelligent> pradeep, put your question
[07:54] <leaf-sheep> ToastedSalad: Okay. I'm reading up the forum -- "It is solved when I turn off and on the mouse."
[07:54] <ankit__> pradeep: whts your config
[07:54] <pradeep> I have installed nvdia driver on my laptop. It works fine, but whenever i shutdown my comp, the screen gets divided into six separate parts.any one knows the solution
[07:54] <crazy6> ^mNotIntelligent: is there an autoload file somewhere I need to add it to?
[07:54] <pradeep> ankit_ :config as in
[07:55] <ankit__> i mean which nvidia card u hv
[07:55] <kannan01> is there any way to run apt-get and update manager at the same time..
[07:55] <lstarnes> kannan01: no
[07:55] <losher> sarthorks: I notice there's a 'filename too long' message at the end of all that goop. I wonder if it's a bug in your proxy?
[07:55] <jimbeam12> omy darn i got a virus on a linux system..nooooooooo
[07:55] <lstarnes> kannan01: in order to prevent race conditions and possible conflicts, the apt/dpkg system was designed to only allow one package manager to perform operations at once
[07:56] <pradeep> ankit_ : 8400 series
[07:56] <ankit__> hmm
[07:56] <pradeep> ankit_ : 8400 series,64mb card,hp pavillion dv 2601 tx laptop
[07:56] <JuanCarlos> update manager is a front-end to apt-get
[07:56] <Ignostic> Hello, I did a fresh install of ubuntu. I moved my folders from external hard drive, but they're all locked, it will take too long to manuel set the permissions
[07:56] <kannan01> lstarnes: tnx
[07:56] <sarthorks> losher:i guess the problem lies with the fact that it says something like "action_taken=block,category=games". i cannot access that download link directly because it is blocked here.  i thought wget would help me get over it. is that not possible?
[07:57] <losher> jimbeam12: a virus is unlikely. Please supply details...
[07:57] <pradeep> Ignostic:no it won take that long
[07:57] <JuanCarlos> Ignostic: chown $USER --verbose --recursive /path/to/folders/you/need/to/change
[07:57] <Ignostic> pradeep, 65 gbs will
[07:57] <pradeep> Ignostic: yeah:-) it will now
[07:58] <pradeep> ankit_ : there?
[07:58] <JuanCarlos> Ignostic: chmod --verbose --recursive +w /path/to/folders/you/need/to/change
[07:58] <Ignostic> Thanks JuanCarlos, let me try
[07:58] <ankit__> pradeep wht drivers u installed..
[07:58] <pradeep> Ignostic : chmod -R 777 /path/
[07:58] <Ignostic> JuanCarlos, is it possible to just do the whole home folder?
[07:58] <ankit__> used the repository drivers or downloaded frm nvidia
[07:59] <pradeep> ankit_ yes
[07:59] <_genuser_> Hello People.
[07:59] <JuanCarlos> Ignostic: take care, but yes
[07:59] <_genuser_> having an issue mounting a network mount.
[07:59] <Ignostic> ok, thanks
[07:59] <pradeep> ankit_ one which was there in repository,nvidia 180 something
[07:59] <losher> sarthorks: it depends who is doing the blocking. If it's at the proxy then I don't see what you can do about it. It *does* look like a game, and it's a huge download. So maybe you shouldn't be doing this at work....
[07:59] <ankit__> pradeep: i think u should try to remove the drivers and re compile them
[07:59] <_genuser_> says wrong fs type.
[08:00] <JuanCarlos> Ignostic: with these command all files are yours and with read/write permissions
[08:00] <ankit__> pradeep: problem lies in the drivers.. its a typical problem associated with driver conflict
[08:00] <sarthorks> losher: yeah ;) . anyway i found a direct link to the download which *does* open. so hurray! thanks!
[08:00] <pradeep> ankit_ I removed them and installed again, but the problem was there
[08:00] <dragonlyre> how do you remove sfwdeck?
[08:01] <dragonlyre> er sfwdec*
[08:01] <_genuser_> any ideas?
[08:01] <ankit__> pradeep: probably u should try some other operating system.. which might solve your problem
[08:01] <_genuser_> how to mount a nfs share?
[08:01] <pradeep> ankit_ i love ubuntu
[08:01] <losher> _genuser_: how are you trying to mount it currently?
[08:02] <pradeep> ankit_ i can manage but don have compiz effects that's all
[08:02] <ToastedSalad> leaf-sheep: are you here?
[08:02] <pradeep> any one knows how to automount my other partitions when ever i login
[08:02] <_genuser_> losher: using sudo mount <IP_ADDRESS>:/raidshare /mnt/raid
[08:02] <Ignostic> JuanCarlos, it seemed to have done the trick, so thanks
[08:03] <Ignostic> pradeep, i didn't try yours but I'm sure it would of worked
[08:03] <Ignostic> bye
[08:03] <^mNotIntelligent> pradeep, add them to /etc/fstab
[08:03] <JuanCarlos> Ignostic: bye
[08:03] <pradeep> Ignostic: np
[08:03] <lstarnes> _genuser_: what protocol are ytou using for the remote share?
[08:03] <lstarnes> *you
[08:03] <leaf-sheep> ToastedSalad: Hmm?
[08:03] <Speed3> Hey all.  I want to compile a vanilla kernel from kernel.org on Kubuntu.  Will I loose the ability to install the nvidia-proprietary drivers or experience any other issues?
[08:03] <ToastedSalad> leaf-sheep: are you still helping me?
[08:03] <pradeep> ^mNotIntelligent, how?
[08:03] <lstarnes> Speed3: custom kernels aren't official supported
[08:03] <_genuser_> lstarnes: remote computer is sharing the same share over nfs and samba.
[08:03] <leaf-sheep> ToastedSalad: Sure. Did you try turning off and on the mouse?
[08:04] <ToastedSalad> yes
[08:04] <lstarnes> _genuser_: whieh are you going to use?
[08:04] <lstarnes> *which
[08:04] <Speed3> lstarnes: OK, I understand that.  If I do it, what are the "consequences"?  I've been using Linux for 10+ years and always compile my own vanilla kernels.
[08:04] <losher> _genuser_: the command looks ok. What's the output when you run it?
[08:04] <leaf-sheep> ToastedSalad: Same HID interrupt?
[08:04] <^mNotIntelligent> pradeep, somethng like this: /dev/sda3 /media/OS ntfs-3g defaults,locale=en_IN 0 0 , replace /media/OS with your mount poitn and /dev/sda3 with your partition number and you're done
[08:04] <lstarnes> Speed3: the packages always assume that you are using the kernel packages that come with ubuntu
[08:05] <_genuser_> lstarnes: either is fine. Normally, just the command works fine. It picks either or. I have also specified -t nfs at the end. Doesn't like it.
[08:05] <navetz> is there a way to reinstall your kernel?
[08:05] <ToastedSalad> leaf-sheep: ha! it finally worked
[08:05] <lstarnes> Speed3: differences between your kernel and the version that ubuntu uses may cause breakage
[08:05] <pradeep> ^mNotIntelligent, ty
[08:05] <ToastedSalad> leaf-sheep: how do I make this permanent?
[08:05] <navetz> like reinstall it as if your were upgrading from 8.10 to 9.04?
[08:05] <_genuser_> losher: maybe wrong versions of nfs and samba?
[08:05] <leaf-sheep> ToastedSalad: That HID Interrupt is weird. Something that shouldn't happening... unless you tried many things at once.
[08:06] <leaf-sheep> ToastedSalad: It should already be permanent now.
[08:06] <lstarnes> _genuser_: do you have nfs-common installed?
[08:06] <ToastedSalad> tried many things at once?
[08:06] <_genuser_> lstarnes, didn't install it specifically. default kubuntu install.
[08:06] <leaf-sheep> ToastedSalad: Basically you tried to connect/disconnect/unknown with Bluetooth.
[08:07] <losher> _genuser_: can't speak for samba, but unless client and server are from very different eras, nfs incompatibility is unlikely
[08:07] <yuanxin> how can I stop Ubuntu from making a fat beep every time I do anything?
[08:07] <_genuser_> my distro upgrade is almost 99%. It might auto reboot the computer.
[08:07] <ToastedSalad> leaf-sheep: can you wait a few minutes so I can restart my computer and see if it sticks?
[08:07] <yuanxin> like backspace too far in a terminal
[08:07] <_genuser_> losher, then perhaps missing nfs-common.
[08:07] <lstarnes> _genuser_: if you have nfs-common installed, nfs mounts should work
[08:07] <leaf-sheep> ToastedSalad: Okay. I think it'll stick. (Or it should be). Go and reboot. I'll be here.
[08:07] <ToastedSalad> brb
[08:07] <lstarnes> _genuser_: you may also need portmap
[08:08] <losher> _genuser_: sudo mount -t nfs <IP_ADDRESS>:/raidshare /mnt/raid
[08:08] <dragonlyre> can anyone tell me how to make adobe flash my primary player instead of sfwdec?
[08:08] <^mNotIntelligent> pradeep, yw
[08:08] <pshr_> Any geeks with interest in h@x ?
[08:08] <_genuser_> lstarnes: losher I will reboot, then try those again. :) thanks both.
[08:08] <dragonlyre> in firefox
[08:08] <idyle> Can somehow give me some help -- I can't seem to upgrade to karmic, do-release-upgrade -d says there is no new release -- does anyone know what this program actually checks?
[08:08] <^mNotIntelligent> yuanxin, disable beep completely...i did that
[08:08] <lstarnes> idyle: which version of ubuntu are you currently using?
[08:08] <^mNotIntelligent> pshr_, whats that
[08:08] <ZoeyMarie> help
[08:08] <idyle> lstarnes: jaunty

[08:09] <coderman> undernet
[08:09] <yuanxin> ^mNotIntelligent: how?
[08:09] <ZoeyMarie> I was actually trying to do a command, and forgot the slash... thanks though. ;)

[08:11] <idyle> losher: I've followed this instructions but it doesn't work, and I am confirmed running jaunty
[08:11] <pete__> can anyone in here on xubuntu help me out with a question about the panel?
[08:12] <pete__> idyle, whats ur problem?
[08:12] <eddy> sudo echo "blacklist pcspkr" >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
[08:12] <eddy> to disable the system beep
[08:12] <ToastedSalad> .
[08:12] <losher> idyle: dunno. lstarnes: ?
[08:12] <ToastedSalad> hi its still working
[08:12] <ToastedSalad> leaf-sheep:
[08:12] <ToastedSalad> thanks
[08:12] <pete__> eddy, thats actually helpful thanks
[08:12] <lstarnes> idyle: I'm not sure why that is happening
[08:12] <leaf-sheep> ToastedSalad: No problem.  Good luck.
[08:13] <ToastedSalad> can you help me write down these steps so I can use them in a future installation?
[08:13] <eddy> yea but first modprobe -r pcspkr, or you'll hear it one last time when you shutdown
[08:13] <idyle> pete__: trying to upgrade to karmic, I reinstalled my desktop after karmic failed on me using my jaunty cd, and once I did the initial few software updates I was gonna upgrade using do-release-upgrade -d, which worked, but I said "no" to the prompt right before it upgraded, and now it says there are no new upgrades
[08:13] <cabaro> sudo modprobe -r pcspkr   to remove pcspeaker driver without rebooting
[08:13] <Guest3565> sorry I had to step out, but does anyone know anything about the game SAVAGE 2 for linux?
[08:14] <blunder> ok now
[08:14] <yuanxin> cabaro: ty
[08:14] <eddy> cabaro, yea but i found that you must blacklist the module too or it will return on the next boot
[08:14] <pete__> eddy, except, pete@BOX:~$ sudo echo "blacklist pcspkr" >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
[08:14] <pete__> bash: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf: Permission denied
[08:14] <leaf-sheep> ToastedSalad: 1) sudo aptitude install bluez-compat 2) Ensure that Bluetooth is paired 3) sudo hidd --search 4) It sometimes may be necessary for you to hold down button to make it visible.
[08:14] <cabaro> true
[08:14] <eddy> pete use sudo
[08:14] <pete__> eddy, i did..
[08:15] <Dr_Willis> Guest3565:  i know the Demo worked for me last i tried it a few months ago.. and they got a large forum i recall
[08:15] <cabaro> echo "blacklist pcspkr" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[08:15] <eddy> add .conf
[08:15] <ToastedSalad> leaf-sheep: where does the turning off the mouse come in""?
[08:15] <^mNotIntelligent> yuanxin, use what cabaro said, blacklist the pcspkr...
[08:15] <eddy> or you'll get some warning thing
[08:15] <pete__> eddy, ?
[08:16] <JoeSomebody> hi, newbie here, prior to my first proper install, on my extra windows machine i am making a partition, should it be ext2 or ext3?
[08:16] <eddy> pete__, what cabaro said
[08:16] <allan89041> is there a repo that i can add for teh bleeding edge kernel?
[08:16] <eddy> but add .conf to the end of that command
[08:16] <yuanxin> ^mNotIntelligent: that's what it says to do on the site silly
[08:16] <leaf-sheep> ToastedSalad: Step 4. It's not often for people to experience HID interrupt, I suppose. (I think it was because you paired the Bluetooth and bluz-compat wasn't installed; then you tried to pair it again).
[08:16] <^mNotIntelligent> JoeSomebody, make it ex3
[08:17] <pete__> eddy, to upgrade to karmic do i just change all my sources, and then use synaptic
[08:17] <pete__> ?
[08:17] <JoeSomebody> ok thanks
[08:17] <ZoeyMarie> Can someone help me troubleshoot installing this tar.gz?
[08:17] <Guest3565> Dr.Willis, well I downloaded the 32bit version, but it won't even start the game, it istalled fine but no game...it pops up a black screen then disappears,  know why by chance?
[08:17] <idyle> pete__: I tried that, but half the updates it lists are blocked, so I figured it was bugging out
[08:17] <^mNotIntelligent> yuanxin, nobody wants to visit a site if he gets a oneline aswer...silly
[08:17] <eddy> pete__, yea or you could use command line: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[08:17] <yuanxin> ^mNotIntelligent: true, but I had already visited it
[08:17] <roman_> hi , i need help with wine ,  i want to install via wine a setup.exe file who request JVM  when i open setup file wine give me error java.lang.exceptionininitializererror: \com\ms\wfc\core\wfcexption
[08:18] <pete__> eddy, haha ok
[08:18] <^mNotIntelligent> yuanxin, then you're done
[08:18] <yuanxin> yup

[08:18] <eddy> pete__, good to hear
[08:18] <pete__> oo and got my xbox 360 controller to work.
[08:18] <pete__> ubuntu is much better than windows.
[08:19] <bambang-pc> hello
[08:19] <ZoeyMarie> Can someone help me troubleshoot installing this tar.gz?
[08:19] <eddy> ubuntu is sexy
[08:19] <ToastedSalad> leaf-sheep: ok thank you. bye
[08:19] <Guest3565> pete I would agree, although mine doesn't like games at all in the slitest!  lol
[08:19] <eddy> but someone over in #vbox said i should try Arch and that i will :-)
[08:19] <eddy> i hear pacman is awesome
[08:19] <idyle> is there anyone who can help me getting karmic installed from jaunty, none of the normal methods work (apt-get dist-upgrade, do-release-upgrade -d, update-manager -d, etc)
[08:19] <pete__> Guest3565, what doesnt like games?
[08:19] <pete__> I play SNES on here lol
[08:20] <eddy> pete__, frozen bubble is the best game for linux
[08:20] <pete__> idyle, i was just getting ready to try!? whats wrong
[08:20] <eddy> lol i love that game so don't hate
[08:20] <pete__> eddy, i like my snes games haha
[08:20] <gac1> Hi does anyone one know how safe it is to download security updates from Update Manager that are not "authenticated"
[08:20] <idyle> pete__: I think it's because I started it and then declined just before it started
[08:20] <Guest3565> pete My system doesn't play games for me, not sure what the deal is really, Windows its a piece of cake, but ubuntu hates games for me...  think i got a driver issue of some sort...not too sure though
[08:20] <pete__> idyle, ask eddy lol
[08:20] <ZoeyMarie> Can someone help me troubleshoot installing this tar.gz?
[08:21] <idyle> I think he said he doesn't know what's going on :|
[08:21] <pete__> Guest3565, most games are built for windows
[08:21] <Myrtti> gac1: you installed the software in the first place, and trusted the software then
[08:21] <Myrtti> gac1: what made you change your mind?
[08:21] <Guest3565> pete I got the game for linux called SAVAGE 2 and can't get it to work.  and another NEXIUZ also neither will work right...
[08:21] <gac1> I get a message about unauthenticated software
[08:22] <ZoeyMarie> What is an SVC?
[08:22] <lstarnes> gac1: it depends on which repository it comes from
[08:22] <idyle> ZoeyMarie: try googling
[08:22] <pete__> idyle, did you change all ur souces in /etc/apt/sources.list and then, sudo apt-get update, sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[08:22] <gac1> How do you mean ?
[08:22] <pete__> ZoeyMarie, if its a .tar.gz its source code
[08:22] <idyle> pete__: no, I will try that
[08:23] <eddy> idyle, you must first update your sources.list to karmic then dist-upgrade
[08:23] <lstarnes> gac1: if they're from official ubuntu repositories on official ubuntu mirrors, they are generally safe
[08:23] <eddy> what pete__  said haha
[08:23] <zhjiang> are there any machine learning people here?
