[04:08] <InHisName> I have been trying to get nvidia drivers for Hardy to work reliably for 2 monitors and one card.  I set resolutions and they go back bad again.  Need guidance.
[04:09] <joeb3_> InHisName, same model monitors?
[04:09] <kavelot> anyone knows which package has "qmake" (qt dev)?
[04:09] <kavelot> I tried qt4-dev-tools, but didn't find qmake after
[04:09] <hvgotcodes> joeb3_: fdisk -l is not showing swap
[04:10] <rahh> guys, i'm having a trouble with ubuntu's grub
[04:10] <vbman11> does anyone here know how to mount a virtualbox hard drive image
[04:10] <vbman11> anyone
[04:10] <joeb3_> hvgotcodes, do you see swap in /etc/fstab?
[04:10] <Goose> I loaded ubuntu on my new laptop and it totally _died_, I have to boot with DSL now and use gparted to remove the ubuntu partition and revery back to Vista x.x How can I disable GRUB?
[04:10] <rahh> uninstall it from windows vista
[04:10] <rahh> in programs and futures
[04:11] <Goose> GRUB?
[04:11]  * Goose questions rahh's idea
[04:11] <Goose> GRUB isn't a program
[04:11] <Goose> it's the partition booter
[04:11] <rahh> no, ubuntu itself
[04:11] <hvgotcodes> joeb3_ i see / /boot /home and then a comment with swap in it with a mount point of none
[04:11] <rahh> once you uninstall it, grub will be gone with it
[04:11] <ckyle> what is the syscall for interrogating which file systems are on a box? For instance, i have ReiserFS and ext3 and want to be able to grab either file system and start walking its dirs. thx
[04:11] <joeb3_> hvgotcodes, then you don't have swap.
[04:11] <vbman11> rahh: unless he is using wubi he can't do that
[04:11] <rahh> how did you guys get past setup (hd0)
[04:12] <rahh> it gives me error 11
[04:12] <rahh> L.
[04:12] <rahh> like when i root (hd0,4)
[04:12] <joeb3_> kavelot, apt-cache search qmake shows qt3-dev-tools
[04:12] <rahh> it works
[04:12] <hvgotcodes> joeb3_ let me come back logged in on my new install and paste my fstab
[04:12] <kavelot> hm, gonna check
[04:12] <kavelot> thanks
[04:12] <InHisName> joeb3_: one dell p1110 crt and one Digital 19" flat screen
[04:12] <rahh> but when i try to setup/install (hd0) it don't
[04:12] <Goose> rahh: how exactly do I "uninstall from vista"?
[04:13] <rahh> if you're using wubi in the first place
[04:13] <rahh> would anyone help me get past this stupid issue?
[04:13] <Nazgar0th> what issue ?
[04:13] <joeb3_> InHisName, you'll probably have to manually edit the xorg.conf.  I had to do that with a dell monitor plugged into the video port on a laptop.
[04:13] <Goose> rahh: not quite understanding you.. is it literally a GUI menu I can access while booted in vista? and if so, where?
[04:14] <rahh> i just installed ubuntu into my vista windows, and now when i reboot after the three first screens, it boots into grub
[04:14] <rahh> so i did root (hd0,4)
[04:14] <rahh> and it worked
[04:14] <rahh> but when i try to setup (hd0) it do not
[04:14] <joeb3_> InHisName, Kept defaulting to resolution of monitor for Dell.
[04:14] <rahh> it gives me error 11
[04:14] <hvgotcodes> joeb_ what is the pastebin?
[04:15] <hvgotcodes> !pastebin
[04:15] <vbman11> goose: what is the problem
[04:15] <rahh> Nazgar0th
[04:15] <rahh> can i pm you please?
[04:15] <rahh> it's just a little tinny winny help
[04:15] <Flannel> rahh: It's best to just talk here.
[04:15] <Goose> vbman11: I love(d) ubuntu, but I got a new lappy yesterday and I just tired to put ubuntu on it partitioned with vista, and whenever I try and boot the ubuntu partition, it just _dies_, so I need to take it off now
[04:15] <rahh> aight
[04:16] <rahh> FloodBot2: i hope someone respondto me though
[04:16] <Nazgar0th> rahh ok
[04:16] <hvgotcodes> joeb3_ http://paste.ubuntu.com/45155/
[04:17] <Leefmc> Flannel: Bit OT, but what are file arguments called? ie, "somefile.py -option value"
[04:17] <vbman11> goose: boot in to the live cd and remove ubuntu, I think there is a remove option in admin onn the live cd
[04:17] <InHisName> joeb3_:  My digital keeps being primary and more resolution than the dell.  21" dell 19" flat prefer to be secondary.
[04:17] <Goose> vbman11: will it remove GRUB as well, so it'll boot normally like it used to?
[04:17] <Flannel> Leefmc: that'd just be an arguement to the python script, not an argument to that file.
[04:17] <Leefmc> Flannel: Its universal isn't it? Same for bash
[04:17] <puff> Anybody know how I can export/import my amarok playlists from a backup of my old system to my new install?
[04:18] <joeb3_> hvgotcodes, line 13 shows your swap.
[04:18] <vbman11> goose: grub is stored on the ubuntu partition by default so it will
[04:18] <Flannel> Leefmc: What do you mean?
[04:18] <Goose> thanks vbman11
[04:18] <Goose> you'll see me back if that doesn't work :/
[04:18] <hvgotcodes> joeb3_ 13 appears to be cdrom; 11-12 are swap?
[04:19] <Leefmc> Flannel: "somebashfile -option value" or "somebashfile argument", its the same way you use the python arguments. But im just wondering on terminology, in my docs im writing "file arguments", and im not that pleased with it heh. Can you think of anything better to call them?
[04:19] <Flannel> Leefmc: They're either parameters to the script itself, or parameters to the scripting engine executing those scripts.
[04:19] <joeb3_> hvgotcodes, 13. UUID=8306b27d-b783-4793-b57c-8b8b151c4d3b none            swap    sw
[04:19] <Flannel> Leefmc: they're called "arguments"
[04:20] <hvgotcodes> joeb3_ either way -- i have swap right?  don't want to have to reinstall, but want suspend to ram to work...
[04:20] <mortuis99> hello i have just installed and am trying to write to a partition and can not can someone help....   Do i just need to set permissions or?
[04:20] <joeb3_> hvgotcodes, yes you have swap.  It's lvm.
[04:21] <Leefmc> Flannel: So file arguments isn't bad eh? Just feels wrong, but command line arguments seems a bit off too :)
[04:21] <Leefmc> Flannel: Anyway, thanks for the OT discussion :)
[04:21] <vbman11> goose: I'm going to reboot
[04:21] <hvgotcodes> joeb3_ sweet
[04:21] <Flannel> Leefmc: they're arguments.  Command line sure, file arguments no.
[04:22] <limitedwisdom> need some help - my apache2 error log is showing that it can't locate params/util.pm in @inc
[04:22] <limitedwisdom> what does that mean?
[04:22] <joeb3_> InHisName, Trying to go from memory.... There is a line about Virtual Screen or something in xorg.conf.  Set it to the minimum resolution both screens will support.  Logout and log back in.
[04:22] <d_dyer> is there any Web design software like Dreamweaver for ubuntu
[04:22] <Leefmc> Flannel: Yea they are arguments, but i have to specific which arguments they are hehe. In documentation inside code, arguments has many meanings hehe :p (function args, etc)
[04:22] <Flannel> !html | d_dyer
[04:22] <d_dyer> Both
[04:22] <Leefmc> Flannel: So you think command line arguments is more clear?
[04:22] <d_dyer> i am a design and coder
[04:22] <Flannel> Leefmc: Right.  Lets... move this to #ubuntu-offtopic
[04:22] <mortuis99> hello i have just installed and am trying to write to a partition and can not can someone help....   Do i just need to set permissions or?
[04:23] <joeb3_> mortuis99, can you write as root?
[04:23] <InHisName> joeb3_: virtual screen just gave me a bigger screen on the flat one and 640x480 on the dell.  The scrolling was bothering.  Want 1280x1024 on each. Keeps unbalance them.
[04:24] <joeb3_> IndyGunFreak, you know how to edit xorg.conf?
[04:24] <IndyGunFreak> joeb3_: of course, what are you wanting to change in it?
[04:25] <InHisName> I have since gone back to single monitor.  I now have a message that the xserver wont start or something. I get orange desktop with one terminal session.  I type $gnome-session to get a decent desktop back.
[04:25] <mortuis99> yes joeb3_
[04:26] <joeb3_> mortuis99, yes it is a permissions issue. Normally users can write to their /home/user and nothing else. Other than /tmp.
[04:26] <botdad> yeah!
[04:28] <joeb3_> IndyGunFreak, did you disable the second monitor?
[04:28] <mortuis99> oh hmmm OK
[04:28] <IndyGunFreak> joeb3_: you're not making much sense... first you ask me if i know hwo to edit xorg, now you're asking if i disabled my second monitor.. .my second monitor is on my PC, which i'm not at right now, but no its not disabled
[04:29] <TOYOTAXP> ÕâÀïÓÐÖÐ¹úÈËÂð£¿
[04:29] <d_dyer> ^WTF^
[04:29] <Flannel> !cn | TOYOTAXP
[04:30] <FuriousGeorge> is it safe to assume that any ps/2 keyboad -> usb adapter will work in ubuntu?
[04:30] <mortuis99> can i have set it as the wrong mount point?
[04:30] <Bhavesh> don't you need xwindow or xorg installed to run Wine?
[04:30] <TOYOTAXP> thanks a lots
[04:30] <joeb3_> IndyGunFreak, to get the resolution right when two monitors are connected, edit the xorg.conf manually.  There is a line that refers to virtual screens.  Change that to the resolution that is supported by both monitors.
[04:30] <joeb3_> IndyGunFreak, still confused?
[04:30] <IndyGunFreak> joeb3_: i've never had ot mess w/ xorg to make mydual screens work.. ever
[04:30] <Flannel> FuriousGeorge: Using a USB keyboard with a PS/2 socket on the computer? or the otherw ay around? (using a PS/2 keyboard in a USB port)
[04:31] <joeb3_> IndyGunFreak, Your welcome..
[04:31] <IndyGunFreak> joeb3_: what are you talking about "your'e welcome".. id idn't ask you a question
[04:31] <joeb3_> IndyGunFreak, in your own way, you said thank you for offering a suggestion.
[04:31] <Kira> Whats the most secure on the fly encrpytion? I am currently using "encfs" and I was wondering what it would take to crack it and if there is anything better. Thanks.
[04:32] <IndyGunFreak> joeb3_: uh, no i didn't.. i've had dual screens working just fine for.. a year?.. i didn't need a suggestion.
[04:32] <IndyGunFreak> i think.. in your own way, you're deeply confused
[04:32] <Bhavesh> i am assuming i need to install xorg to run wine am i correct?
[04:32] <joeb3_> IndyGunFreak, glad I could help.
[04:32] <Kne> sorbix, i just installed ubuntu 8.04 lts from CD, but when i boot it up i get to a command line, and startx says xinit isn't installed
[04:32] <IndyGunFreak> whatever joeb3_ now you're just trolling
[04:33] <Jordan_U> Kne: Does it say "busybox" at the top?
[04:33] <Kne> jordan_u: no
[04:33] <Jordan_U> Kne: Did the installer say that the install completed successfully?
[04:34] <Kne> jordan_u: i think so, it spit out the disc and there were no error messages
[04:34] <rahh> who was helping me
[04:34] <Chaotic_Descent> I have a Wine problem, and the error isn't showing up in web search results. "the driver has failed to allocate AGP memory"
[04:34] <rahh> sorry, i forgot the nick >:/
[04:34] <Kne> jordan_u: i've reinstalled it a few times now
[04:35] <jerald> Well then
[04:35] <d_dyer> in "KompoZer" is there a way to make a clickable "Roll-Over" Image?
[04:35] <Jordan_U> Kne: Does it ask you to login after it boots or does it go directly to a shell?
[04:35] <jerald> Can OpenOffice read .docx or any .***x office files?
[04:35] <Kira> Whats the most secure on the fly encrpytion? I am currently using "encfs" and I was wondering what it would take to crack it and if there is anything better. Thanks.
[04:35] <epp> jerald, most all
[04:35] <Kne> jordan_u: it asks me to login first
[04:35] <jerald> Alright
[04:35] <Kne> jordan_u: i've also gone through apt-get update and upgrade and dist-upgrade
[04:35] <Flannel> jerald: yes
[04:36] <Jordan_U> Kne: Does anything happen when you run "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop" ?
[04:36] <jerald> I have some .docx and some whatever the Excel files are from 2007
[04:36] <jerald> Is it possible for me to change my DNS on Ubuntu, if so, how?
[04:36] <Kne> jordan_u: i'll try that, brb for a sec, only have one lan line
[04:36] <rahh> jerald: why i do setup (hd0) it says /boot/grub/stage1/ is not founder
[04:36] <rahh> what to do now?
[04:37] <jerald> rahh, was that meant to be aimed towards me?
[04:37] <rahh> also when i use `find /boot/grub/stage1` or `find /grub/stage1/` it don't find anything
[04:37] <rahh> jerald: yes, since you're the super active helper here :p
[04:37] <jerald> Rahh, I am new to Ubuntu
[04:37] <rahh> me too
[04:37] <rahh> damn thing
[04:37] <jerald> I am asking questions, not helping
[04:37] <rahh> ah
[04:37] <rahh> aight bro
[04:38] <rahh> someone was helping me already but i forgot his nick
[04:38] <rahh> damnit
[04:38] <Flannel> !enter | rahh
[04:38]  * jerald should be doing some English homework but is trying to figure out something
[04:38] <rahh> ubottu: yes, sir.
[04:38] <rahh> ubottu: 12x3?
[04:38] <rahh> k
[04:38] <goose> whoever helped me earlier still here?
[04:38]  * rahh sends ubottu back to school.
[04:38] <Sydero> Help :(  I deleted a partition, then repartitioned my system, and lost 3 files that I wanted to keep :(
[04:39] <jerald> Does anyone know how to edit the DNS on Ubuntu/
[04:39] <Circs> I have a minor quibble, how does one change the area for resizing windows, basically i find it very difficult to grab the edges of a window and resize it
[04:39] <rahh> did you rewrite the clusters already?
[04:39] <rahh> jerald: by installing bind for a start
[04:39] <goose> in whatever case, I finally got Ubuntu to boot by booting in "recovery mode" and selecting "try to fix x server" before resuming normal boot. one booted, I can go to System > Administration > Hardware Driver, and it gives me the option to "Enable NVIDIA accelerated graphics card driver", but if I do that, it requires a restart and then it all happens all over again
[04:39] <jerald> rahh, do you know the syntax?
[04:39] <rahh> what package manager do you use?
[04:39] <rahh> apt or yum?
[04:39] <goose> rahh, me?
[04:40] <rahh> no, jerald
[04:40] <jerald> This is Ubuntu.... so... what do you think....
[04:40] <rahh> apt
[04:40] <rahh> i'm new to ubuntu too, i use gentoo in general.
[04:40] <mel> ##club-ubuntu
[04:40] <rahh> however, apt-get install bind/dns
[04:40] <Guest10497> join #club-ubuntu
[04:40] <Flannel> Guest10497: Don't do that.
[04:40] <rahh> no
[04:41] <goose> can anyone help me fix my xorg.conf?
[04:41] <goose> I'm pretty sure that's my problem
[04:41] <jerald> Oh, I can't get that right now, I am updating
[04:41] <rahh> k
[04:41] <rahh> wait
[04:41] <jerald> What is the difference between Sudo apt-get and just apt-get
[04:41] <rahh> jerald: then do apt-get install bind
[04:41] <goose> need root to install
[04:41] <goose> jerald,
[04:41] <rahh> sudo makes you run it as root.
[04:42] <rahh> if you're under root premission already, then you don't need to sudo
[04:42] <jerald> Ok
[04:42] <rahh> if you're on a normal user account, then you'd need sudo
[04:42] <joeb3_> apt-get install bind9
[04:42] <rahh> it seems like you're new to linux :p
[04:42] <jerald> Me?
[04:42] <rahh> so, who's going to help me now?
[04:42] <rahh> jerald: yeah.
[04:42] <jerald> Uh, does anyone know how I can connect to a Windows network? What software do I need, and whats the syntax for it
[04:43] <rahh> linux has a port for it, it can see windows network too
[04:43] <goose> jerald, networking software is preloaded
[04:43] <goose> is it wireless?
[04:43] <rahh> last time i checked
[04:43] <Kira> Whats the most secure on the fly encrpytion? I am currently using "encfs" and I was wondering what it would take to crack it and if there is anything better. Thanks.
[04:43] <jerald> Yeah, I am running a wireless card

[04:44] <rahh> what is what?
[04:44] <Kira> rahh, yeah I was just checking it out, it seems to have the same as encfs and more (filesystem, OS). Im considering it, but I thought Id ask you guys
[04:44] <jerald> Samba? Okay.
[04:44] <rahh> or vnc :p
[04:44] <goose> jerald, I might be able to help you if I could even use my laptop

[04:55] <rahh> hecking if "/boot/grub/stage1" exists... no
[04:55] <rahh> i know it's in a different dir
[04:55] <rahh> but i can't move it from grub
[04:55] <jtier> pikafoop: top SHIFT-O mem ?
[04:55] <rahh> so what do i do, move it from windows to that location?
[04:55] <pikafoop> jtier: no, press SHIFT-O while top is already running
[04:56] <pxwebdev_> does anyone know how to change the size of the text displayed at boot. The one that lists the processes when they are starting?
[04:56] <pikafoop> that should give you a chart of sort-able fields
[04:57] <jtier> pikafoop: thanks!!
[04:57] <pikafoop> jtier: no problem, friend
[04:58] <X_> can someone help me get an unresponsive usb stick to read
[04:58] <X_> it used to work on here
[04:59] <jerald> Okay
[04:59] <jerald> I have a question
[04:59] <jerald> My distro. upgrade has been running for quite some time, and it is stuck saying about 13 minutes remaining... is there a way to restart the upgrade?
[04:59] <persia> Hello.  I just corrupted lots of my configuration files, and wanted to start with a fresh configuration.  I moved the damaged /home/persia to /home/backup, and created a new (empty) /home/persia with the same permissions and ownership.  I don't get a panel when I log in, and there are errors locking gconf.  How can I recover?
[05:00] <petrele> anyone using newsmy mp3 player
[05:00] <persia> jerald: You can halt and restart it, but your system may be in an unstable state if you interrupt.  Where is it stuck?
[05:00] <petrele> can ubuntu read it mem
[05:00] <jerald> Oh, nevermind
[05:01] <jerald> It unstuck and continued at a reduced speed
[05:01] <Bhavesh> do I need kernel source package to install nvidia drivers for Geforce2 Mx 400 card?
[05:01] <persia> Bhavesh: You shouldn't need the source, but you might need header files, depending on how you are installing the drivers.
[05:02] <patrick_> ry
[05:02] <patrick_> hey
[05:02] <Bhavesh> persia the only way i know to do it is get package from nvidia
[05:02] <Bhavesh> if there is a better way to install it , i welcome the suggestion
[05:02] <patrick_> hey
[05:02] <persia> Bhavesh: Do none of the nvidia driver packages in restricted meet your needs?
[05:02] <patrick_> i need some help
[05:02] <csyntax> How do i install HLA on linux
[05:03] <Vilhelm_> HLA?
[05:03] <patrick_> I'm havng problem installing
[05:03] <Vilhelm_> what is iy?
[05:03] <Bhavesh> persia to be honest, i have not tried anything else.. so i am here asking for help, i have ubuntu server running, all i want to do is have minimal x running so i can run wine and another application
[05:03] <Vilhelm_> sudo apt get......................
[05:03] <jerald> Is there a skin for this that moves the close, unmaximize/maximize, and minimize buttons to the left side so it is Mac-like?
[05:04] <patrick_> ?
[05:04] <patrick_> i get permission denied
[05:04] <csyntax> ?
[05:04] <patrick_> I'm trying to install beryl
[05:05] <persia> Bhavesh: I think you want the nvidia-glx-legacy package if you need 3D support (but I may misrecognise your card).  If 2D is sufficient, X comes with the appropriate driver (nv).
[05:05] <cE_koNy0L> hi...............
[05:05] <jerald> Is there a way to install my intel drivers for my card so I can resize my resolution to the size I want it?

[05:07] <Winston_SmithVT> Can I get a little help getting my wireless working with ndiswrapper?
[05:07] <Winston_SmithVT> I have a linksys wpc54g V3, but I can't seem to get ndiswrapper working
[05:09] <Winston_SmithVT> When I lshw -C Network I get configuration: Driver=b43-pci-bridge, which from guides I have read should not be so
[05:09] <pkh> is it possible to configure ubuntu to let me know who is moving/deleting files/directories via samba?  we have an ubuntu machine set up as a samba server and somone keeps screwing up the files...
[05:10] <Winston_SmithVT> Also when I check if ndiswrapper is running it seems to not be, I run lsmod | grep ndis
[05:10] <Bhavesh> who had issues with message starx not found?
[05:11] <ill_phaze> I've been having issues with firefox connecting to webpages lately. Anyone else having this issue.  It will take up to 30% of my CPU power and accomplish nothing.

[05:17] <persia> greenman: apt-get install $(package)=$(version)
[05:17] <persia> greenman: Note that it's very likely that if 5.1.3 was available for your release, it would be updated by apt-get update; apt-get upgrade
[05:18] <wizardslovak> hello people
[05:18] <at28> anyone can help me instlal lightscribe software please
[05:18] <greenman> persia, I did apt-get update and apt-get install php5
[05:18] <kaiwen> Hi, is there a way to login via xdmcp through vnc viewer?
[05:18] <greenman> it said it upgraded it, but it only went to 5.1.2

[05:19] <FloodBot2> patrick_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:19] <wizardslovak> i am trying to getx-window working on ubuntu server, i did run aptitude install x-window-system ubuntu-desktop but i am getting error "dpkg was interrupted" i tryed to run dpkg --configure -a but it says failed cause of lot of errors

[05:19] <patrick_> hey
[05:19] <patrick_> can some 1 please help me
[05:20] <greenman> thanks.  I'll try that
[05:20] <ushimitsudoki1> at28: how about you try it? i have a lightscribe but i haven't bothered with this yet
[05:20] <wizardslovak> when it was intalling , after time there was just a blank black screen so i did reboot it
[05:20] <ushimitsudoki1> patrick_: that command you entered doesn't make any sense. what are you trying to do?
[05:20] <patrick_> im trying to install the beryll
[05:20] <ere4si> !beryl
[05:20] <kaiwen> anyone on remote login? is there a way to login through xdmcp on vnc viewer?
[05:21] <ushimitsudoki1> patrick_: just use the package name, you don't specify a path with that command
[05:21] <ushimitsudoki1> patrick_: the package knows where to install
[05:21] <patrick_> ohhh
[05:21] <wizardslovak> so what should i do?
[05:21] <patrick_> let me try
[05:21] <Winston_SmithVT> Can I get some help getting ndiswrapper working?
[05:21] <patrick_> and what is this compiz the bot is talking about?
[05:21] <kaiwen> !compiz >patrick_
[05:21] <sjea> hello all
[05:22] <kaiwen> anyone use remote login?
[05:22] <ushimitsudoki1> patrick_: compiz is the cube and wobbly windows and desktop effects. beryl is the window decoration (the frame around the window) ... you can use them together or not it is up to you
[05:22] <persia> kaiwen: There are lots of ways to login remotely.  To activate xdmcp, you need to adjust your gdm configuration.  I'm not sure that VNC server has a X server, so you may need to run VNC on any host you wish to access from VNC.
[05:23] <patrick_> oh ok
[05:23] <ere4si> wizardslovak: was the blank screen the screensaver kicking in?
[05:23] <crdlb> ushimitsudoki1: no, you're thinking of emerald when you say beryl
[05:23] <patrick_> well how do i get compiz
[05:23] <complexity__> I just jumprd into this conversation
[05:23] <ushimitsudoki1> crdlb: oops yes you are right! srry about that
[05:23] <legend2440> at28: there are lightscribe deb files here   http://www.lightscribe.com/downloadSection/linux/index.aspx
[05:23] <wizardslovak> when i click on it nothing didnt happened
[05:23] <patrick_> because i cant install this beryl i already tried what you said
[05:23] <kaiwen> persia xdmcp is configured, thing is though, I want to access that part through a client like vnc so I can run another operating system as well
[05:23] <ere4si> !beryl >  patrick_
[05:23] <wizardslovak> ere4si: when i clicked nothing didnt happene so i reboot it
[05:23] <ere4si> k
[05:23] <complexity__> kaiwen are you looking into a solution to remotely login into another computer?
[05:24] <trussn> hi
[05:24] <patrick_> ok sure sorry im new to this chat stuff
[05:24] <complexity__> the answer to that is nomachine
[05:24] <ere4si> wizardslovak: reboot and in terminal run   sudo dpkg --configure -a
[05:24] <kaiwen> complexity__ yes please
[05:24] <wizardslovak> i already did
[05:24] <patrick_> !compiz
[05:24] <ere4si> wizardslovak: and?
[05:24] <ushimitsudoki1> kaiwen: i agree with complexity__ : i use nomachine nx and it works a treat
[05:25] <complexity__> kawen: the website is http://www.nomachine.com/products.php
[05:25] <kaiwen> ushimitsudoki1 agreed on what?
[05:25] <wizardslovak> ere4si: "dpkg:too many errors,stopping"
[05:25] <kaiwen> ok thanks i'll look into it now ;)
[05:25] <complexity__> the free version allows 2 user accounts
[05:25] <persia> kaiwen: You'd need to have an X server on the other computer to use xdcmp
[05:25] <ere4si> wizardslovak: try   sudo apt-get -f install
[05:26] <kaiwen> persia, there is xserver on the other computer
[05:26] <complexity__> the business versions cost money, but it is the best...blows VNC out of the water
[05:26] <persia> kaiwen: In that case, just have that X server use xdcmp to log into your machine.  Why use VNC?
[05:26] <trussn> hello guys, anybody here have vpnclient working with ubuntu 8.04
[05:26] <kaiwen> haha k, thanks :D
[05:27] <complexity__> persia...I wa thinking that he/she was running X as eing in the Ubuntu room :D
[05:27] <patrick_> how do i check if i have dapper or edgy?
[05:27] <kaiwen> persia, so I could run the client os and ubuntu via vnc or somewhat on one computer
[05:27] <kaiwen> kind of like virtualization but not
[05:27] <wizardslovak> ere4si: "e:dpkg was interupted,you must manually run "dpkg --configure -a" to correct the problems
[05:27] <kaiwen> complexity__ thanks complexity for the link i think this is what i need :D
[05:28] <complexity__> kaiwen: you are welcome :D
[05:28] <complexity__> share it with others
[05:28] <wizardslovak> ere4si: i did run it again and same think
[05:28] <ere4si> wizardslovak: and that gives errors yes?
[05:28] <wizardslovak> ere4si: yes it does
[05:28] <complexity__> they have a widows client, but the host, I think, is linux based
[05:28] <kaiwen> haha k
[05:28] <Winston_SmithVT> Can I get some help getting ndiswrapper working? I've read a few guides still can't get it working
[05:29] <kaiwen> complexity__ exactly what i'm looking for :D
[05:29] <patrick_> how do i get c the comzip cube feature?
[05:29] <complexity__> great!
[05:29] <ushimitsudoki1> patrick_: cat /etc/lsb-release
[05:29] <ere4si> wizardslovak: and sudo apt-get -f install gives errors as well?
[05:29] <kaiwen> Winston_SmithVT what do you need help on
[05:29] <markp> Hi everyone! anyone good with WPA / WEP in ubuntu
[05:29] <ushimitsudoki1> patrick_: you sure you are on dapper or edgy? those are getting kinda out of date
[05:29] <patrick_> oh ok
[05:29] <wizardslovak> ere4si: same answer as for dpkg
[05:29] <patrick_> well im new to this and i went to the website the bot gave me
[05:29] <jyoseph> new ubuntu user trying to install virtualbox-ose.... I don't see the vboxdrv kernel in the repo. Where do I get that?
[05:29] <Winston_SmithVT> kaiwen, I'm trying to get my wireless (wpc54g V3) working with ndiswrapper, but I've had no luck
[05:30] <ere4si> ushimitsudoki1: dapper is good for nearly a year
[05:30] <patrick_> and its asking me if im on edgy or dapper
[05:30] <complexity__> WPA works "out of box" from feisty on, form my experience
[05:30] <kaiwen> Winston_SmithVT do you ahve the driver?
[05:30] <ushimitsudoki1> ere4si: sure but sounds like a new user and that's why i wonder why he would be messing with an older version, that's all
[05:30] <patrick_> but i have ubuntu 8.04
[05:30] <trussn> anyone knows of a different patch for vpnclient
[05:30] <trussn> patching file interceptor.c
[05:30] <trussn> Hunk #3 FAILED at 111.
[05:30] <markp> i can get my WLAN working fine with no security, the moment it tries to use wpa or wep it fails :(
[05:30] <Jack_Sparrow> complexity__ Depends on the card/chipset
[05:30] <kaiwen> Winston_SmithVT you did do ndiswrapper -i *drivername in inf format*
[05:30] <Winston_SmithVT> kaiwen, yes I have the .sys and .inf file
[05:31] <kaiwen> Winston_SmithVT did you do that?
[05:31] <complexity__> Jack - thanx for the info
[05:31] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[05:31] <ushimitsudoki1> patrick_: then that is the "hardy" (codename) relase  - the current version
[05:31] <Winston_SmithVT> kaiwen, I don't think that was the command I used, let me check
[05:31] <ntndo> any good flash editors for ubuntu?
[05:31] <patrick_> oh ok
[05:31] <complexity__> "I was blind, then they showed me the light..."
[05:31] <complexity__> lol
[05:31] <wizardslovak> ere4si: can i reinstall it or something? without reinstalling server?
[05:31] <Jack_Sparrow> complexity__ Some cards work without encryption but gag when you try to set it up.   Buy well supported hardware when you spend your coins
[05:32] <trussn> has anyone got cisco vpnclient working with ubuntu hardy ?
[05:32] <ph0rensic> Patrick have you installed the compizconfig settings manager?
[05:32] <Jack_Sparrow> !ccsm
[05:32] <kevin_> hey would someone mind helping me out -- I've been trying for hours and hours to get my wireless to work...I'm using this site: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=769990 and it works up to a certain point I get stuck..can someone help me out?
[05:32] <greenman> Okay so I tried this and it didn't work.  Just sat there:  sudo apt-get install $(php5)=$(5.1.3)
[05:32] <Winston_SmithVT> kaiwen, I used sudo ndiswrapper -i ~/Desktop/driver.inf, driver being the name of the driver inf
[05:32] <kaiwen> Jack_Sparrow is your connection open?
[05:32] <complexity__> Jack; Mine worked OOB - and it was the dreaded Broadcom
[05:32] <greenman> Is that wrong?
[05:32] <kaiwen> Winston_SmithVT and it goes through successfull right?
[05:33] <Winston_SmithVT> kaiwen, yes
[05:33] <Jack_Sparrow> complexity__ there are something like 4 different versions of the bcm43xx
[05:33] <ere4si> wizardslovak: try   sudo apt-get --reinstall install "packages" - the same ones you were trying to get before
[05:33] <kaiwen> Winston_SmithVT ok do this depmod -a
[05:33] <complexity__> I was suprised!
[05:33] <Jack_Sparrow> kaiwen What?
[05:33] <trussn> kevin :   what are you using to connect with your wireless network
[05:33] <complexity__> wow!
[05:33] <kaiwen> Winston_SmithVT sudo depmod -a i mean
[05:33] <complexity__> Guess I got lucky :D
[05:33] <wizardslovak> ere4si: well i dont know names of packages
[05:33] <kevin_> do you mean what is my wireless card called? or my ISP?
[05:34] <Winston_SmithVT> kaiwen, nada nothing comes up
[05:34] <ushimitsudoki1> greenman: yes. the $(xxx) form is a hint that you substitute the appropriate values. So, in your case you want: "sudo apt-get install php5=5.1.3" this won't work, though, because that version is not in the repositories
[05:34] <sjea> hi all i read a few post on changing my splash screen being vary new to this is there any easy ways ?
[05:34] <kaiwen> Winston_SmithVT that's fine
[05:34] <ushimitsudoki1> greenman: so if you are sure you need that specific version, you will likely have to install it yourself
[05:34] <kaiwen> Winston_SmithVT then do modprobe -i ndiswrapper
[05:34] <greenman> ushimitsudoki1, so you can't get 5.1.3 now?
[05:34] <wizardslovak> ere4si: whatever i type it says dpkg was interrupted
[05:34] <kaiwen> Winston_SmithVT with sudo
[05:34] <Winston_SmithVT> kaiwen, Question would it matter if the .inf was named differant from the .sys?
[05:35] <kaiwen> Winston_SmithVT idk
[05:35] <Winston_SmithVT> kaiwen, same nothing
[05:35] <kaiwen> Jack_Sparrow it probably is in restricted mde
[05:35] <greenman> ushimitsudoki1, won't that run roughshod over ubuntu's install though?  I ran into that problem using gentoo if you installed something by yourself, it screwed with the os installed stuff
[05:35] <ere4si> wizardslovak: another go - this time   sudo apt-get -f install   - no packages just -f install
[05:35] <kaiwen> Winston_SmithVT do ndiswrapper -l and tell me what you see
[05:36] <patrick_> i cant find the compizconfig-setting-managing file
[05:36] <patrick_> can some 1 help me
[05:36] <kevin_> trussn:  my wireless info is: Broadcom Corporation BCM94311MCG wlan mini-PCI (rev 02)
[05:36] <Jack_Sparrow> kaiwen You seem to be talking to the wrong person, I have no issues or questions.
[05:36] <wizardslovak> ere4si:  "dpkg was interrupted ..."
[05:36] <wizardslovak> :(:(
[05:36] <ushimitsudoki1> greenman: no no you can install to /opt or somewhere and only call that version specifically when you need to. this is needed sometimes with java for example. you have to be careful, but it is certainly possible
[05:36] <kaiwen> oh woops sry Jack_Sparrow, who does though?
[05:36] <Jack_Sparrow> kaiwen someone complexity__ was talking with
[05:37] <kaiwen> wizardslovak do a dmesg
[05:37] <complexity__> question: Why isn't there a compehensive Ubuntu book out there?
[05:37] <Jack_Sparrow> !training
[05:37] <Winston_SmithVT> kaiwen, driver installed device (yada yada) present (alternet driver bcm43xx)
[05:37] <kevin_> trussn:  I'm pretty sure that the site that I suggested is correct (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=769990) .. ijust need someone to help me figure out where I went wrong
[05:37] <MolePrince> Hello.  How may I set my user to have permission to mount USB/SD please?
[05:37] <kaiwen> Winston_
[05:37] <ere4si> wizardslovak: sudo dpkg -C   might give a solution
[05:37] <kaiwen> Winston_SmithVT are you sure that's the right driver?
[05:37] <greenman> ushimitsudoki1, I just want to use piwik which uses 5.1.3.  I've got blogs and hosted sites for people so I can't afford to screw stuff up.  :)  I can't really run to php's, so I guess I just can't use piwik at the moment...
[05:38] <kaiwen> Winston_SmithVT it seems alternate
[05:38] <kaiwen> Winston_SmithVT and btw what is your net card
[05:38] <Winston_SmithVT> kaiwen, Downloaded it off the linksys website, wpc54g version 3
[05:38] <kaiwen> ok
[05:38] <patrick_> ushimitsu can you hlep me im at the website its telling me to install the compizconfig setting but i dont see that in adding and removing
[05:38] <kaiwen> Winston_SmithVT and you sudoed all the commands i told you correct?
[05:38] <kaiwen> Winston_SmithVT the depmod -a and the modprobe -i ndiswrapper?
[05:38] <ere4si> !ccsm > patrick_
[05:38] <jerald> Is there a visual skin for Ubuntu to make it look like Mac OS X Leopard
[05:39] <kevin_> hey would someone mind helping me out -- I've been trying for hours and hours to get my wireless to work...I'm using this site: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=769990 and it works up to a certain point I get stuck..can someone help me out?
[05:39] <Jack_Sparrow> patrick_ Install ccsm  sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager Next go to system...pref..advanced desktop effects....  On the first page  put check next to rotate cube and desktop cube.. dbl click general options... up closer to the top...  click on desktop size  and set them to 4, 1 and 1  top to bottom... ctrl+alt+(Left Mouse Button) then move mouse
[05:39] <Winston_SmithVT> kaiwen, yes sudo on all commands
[05:39] <Jack_Sparrow> !info compizconfig-settings-manager
[05:39] <kaiwen> Winston_SmithVT ok reboot
[05:39] <kaiwen> Winston_SmithVT once you do that try it now, is this a laptop?
[05:39] <Jack_Sparrow> patrick_ enable universe if it is not already
[05:39] <patrick_> ok let me try that  jack
[05:39] <ushimitsudoki1> greenman: well i don't know about all that, but the piwik page says "at least PHP 5.1"  so you might want to at least give it a try with the current php5 version ... getting off topic tho so good luck with that
[05:39] <greenman> So, seeing as how I can't use piwik, can someone recommend an apache log file analyzer that's easy to install and give usefull reports?
[05:40] <wizardslovak> ere4si: well it says that a lot packages are only half configured
[05:40] <Winston_SmithVT> kaiwen, yes laptop, dell inspiron 2200
[05:40] <patrick_> hdo i enable univers
[05:40] <kaiwen> Winston_SmithVT try the button to turn on the wireless
[05:40] <wizardslovak> can i reconfigure them all at once?
[05:40] <Jack_Sparrow> patrick_ system..admin..software sources
[05:40] <greenman> ushimitsudoki1, yeah, the install file won't run if you don't have 5.1.3  oh well.  Thanks.
[05:40] <patrick_> thx
[05:41] <Winston_SmithVT> It's not internal, it's a pcmcia card would that matter?
[05:41] <Jack_Sparrow> patrick_ remember to sudo apt-get update once you enable universe
[05:41] <Winston_SmithVT> kaiwen, I have the internal card turned off, it's broken
[05:41] <kaiwen> Winston_SmithVT maybe, pcmcia controller maybe a problem idk
[05:41] <greenman> hmm...  I don't want piwik anyway, it wasn't what I thought it was.  :)
[05:41] <kaiwen> Winston_SmithVT has it been installed?
[05:42] <kaiwen> Winston_SmithVT have you rebooted?
[05:42] <kevin_> when the next available ubuntu master can help me..please let me know :(
[05:42] <Winston_SmithVT> kaiwen, the pcmcia controller? not sure how do I check?
[05:42] <wizardslovak> ere4si: can i remove it all?
[05:43] <kaiwen> Winston_SmithVT do this lspci | grep net
[05:43] <kaiwen> Winston_SmithVT tell me what you see
[05:43] <ere4si> wizardslovak: well   dpkg --configure -a   has always worked here - don't know enough to suggest more...
[05:43] <Winston_SmithVT> kaiwen, no i'll do that now, I'm on the laptop so i'll be away for a second
[05:43] <wizardslovak> ere4si: any remove command?
[05:44] <Winston_SmithVT> kaiwen,  intel corp pro/100 VE, that's my internal nic
[05:44] <Winston_SmithVT> kaiwen, Wired nic
[05:44] <kaiwen> Winston_SmithVT that it?
[05:44] <ere4si> wizardslovak: there's --purge remove   that you use on packages
[05:44] <wizardslovak> hmmm
[05:44] <kaiwen> Winston_SmithVT it doesn't show the cared?
[05:45] <Winston_SmithVT> kaiwen,  not the wireless card no
[05:45] <kaiwen> Winston_SmithVT there's the problem
[05:45] <ere4si> wizardslovak: man dpkg   will give the options
[05:45] <kaiwen> Winston_SmithVT it didn't detect the card itself, when did you plug it in?\
[05:45] <Winston_SmithVT> kaiwen, before booting
[05:46] <kaiwen> Winston_SmithVT you may need to install the pcmcia driver or something like that
[05:46] <vinay> im running hardy , is there a standard way to get a newere nvidia driver deb?..
[05:46] <Winston_SmithVT> kaiwen, ok i'll look into installing the pcmcia driver
[05:46] <MolePrince> Hello.  When I plug in an SD card to my laptop, Ubuntu says it cannot mount it as I need to be superuser.  How may I set my user to mount it please without needing sudo please?
[05:46] <kaiwen> Winston_SmithVT I'm really not sure on this one, since it's not detected.
[05:46] <kaiwen> Winston_SmithVT if it's detected you'll see the card as detected, then the steps I gave you should work
[05:46] <Winston_SmithVT> kaiwen, the card is listed when I run lshw -C Network
[05:47] <kaiwen> Winston_SmithVT  it is?
[05:47] <rockets> hello,everyboady
[05:47] <kaiwen> Winston_SmithVT  then do a restart :D

[05:55] <sekyourbox> I was looking at some idle traffic on my box, and i get a random few UDP packets once in a while.  They come from the loopback address, and are received by the loopback address.. Is this normal traffic generated by the OS? there are is different "data" attached to each packet for about 5 packets, and restarts. Also, it throws out a bad checksum.. Any ideas?  thanks.

[05:59] <adamonline45> Hello folks!  I have a question about the [clock speed|kernel speed|update rate] of the latest LTS (8.04 is it?).  I've been using 6.06 and the aforementied speed is capped at 250 updates/second.  I had a custom kernel on 6.06 for a while, with a speed of 500 updates/second; but after an unrelated hard drive failure, I'm back at 250 after a basic install.  I'm noticing a massive difference (in the negative) in speed on my server now,
[05:59] <adamonline45> lol wow I type essays

[06:02] <legend2440> at28: here are instructions for lightscribe on x64    http://vitalbodies.wordpress.com/2008/07/14/getting-lightscribe-to-work-in-ubuntu-hardy-heron/
[06:03] <adamonline45> Hmm.... Well, maybe a shortened version of my question would be better: Does anyone know the default kernel speed/update rate for Ubuntu 8.04?
[06:03] <cheeky> hey
[06:03] <patrick_> help me some 1
[06:03] <Fondor1> Patrick: What's the problem?
[06:04] <cheeky> hey i just got and installed k3b .. and just for tutorial sake i want to delete it .. but i want to do this via the terminal but i dunno where to find them  thank you
[06:04] <jska> Anyone know how to play *.pmp media file ?
[06:04] <Fondor1> Cheeky: sudo apt-get remove [package] will remove a program
[06:05] <Fondor1> jska: Where is that file from?
[06:05] <CSWookie> I'm having some problems with Firefox 3 and Flash with Hardy.  Flash apps don't start automatically, but have to be clicked.  Usually this is good, but theres a couple of sights where flash needs to go on its own.  Any ideas?
[06:05] <jska> Fondor1: Sony PSP
[06:06] <adamonline45> jska: Insert snoop dogg cd into drive
[06:06] <csyntax> has anyone install HLA on linux for asm programming?
[06:07] <csyntax> ?
[06:07] <jska> adamonline45: what's "snoop dogg cd"?
[06:08] <ushimitsudoki1> adamonline45: try this: grep CONFIG_HZ /boot/config-`uname-r`
[06:08] <cheeky> Fondor1: where is it installed @ the package
[06:08] <sekyourbox> what is this "aptitude" for? sudo aptitude install programname?
[06:08] <patrick_> some 1 please help me i keep getting this
[06:08] <patrick_>  Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/)
[06:09] <Fondor1> Cheeky: you mean you're looking for the directory where the program is installed?
[06:09] <csyntax> hello!
[06:09] <patrick_> hey
[06:09] <wbmj> sekyourbox: aptitude is another front end for dpkg similar to apt-get but with dependency listing
[06:09] <patrick_> HELP ME PLEASE!!!!!
[06:09] <Fondor1> Patrick: That means you have synaptic open, or you're doing updates at the same time.
[06:09] <patrick_> oh
[06:09] <Fondor1> And please don't shout
[06:09] <ushimitsudoki1> patrick_: maybe you have more than one program trying to install? you can't do an apt-get install while synaptic is open, for example
[06:09] <Flannel> !patience | patrick_
[06:10] <Flannel> mmm, wrong one.  Anyway, patrick_, how are you trying to install it?
[06:10] <patrick_> im using the terminal and im pasting this
[06:10] <patrick_> apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager
[06:11] <Flannel> patrick_: That should have sudo infront of it.  "sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager"
[06:11] <zubumufu> Has anybody here done the LUKS full disk encryption with a Dell machine?
[06:11] <zubumufu> I'm about to buy a Dell 530N.
[06:11] <patrick_> oh ok thx let me try
[06:11] <ushimitsudoki1> patrick_: that's not going to work. you have have "root" permissions to install something. to get this permission you have to use "sudo" in front of the command
[06:11] <ushimitsudoki1> i type too slow
[06:11] <zubumufu> I want to know if it'll be a problem.
[06:12] <adamonline45> ushimitsudoki1: Oooh, neat!  That shows me the current kernel Hz!  Thank you 8)  Unfortunately I'm on 6.06, so it's at 100 (surprised I am, I thought it defaulted to 250)...  Are YOU perchance on Hardy Heron?
[06:12] <Flannel> zubumufu: That's rather specific, google might be a better resource for you.
[06:12] <ushimitsudoki1> adamonline45: i am, but i am running a real-time kernel so mine is 1000HZ
[06:12] <patrick_> oh dang it worked!!!!!!
[06:12] <zubumufu> Because full disk encryption is available on the alternate CD, but I imagine the custom Dell cd is a LiveCD.
[06:12] <patrick_> finally i been trying to do this all day
[06:12] <patrick_> thx guys
[06:13] <zubumufu> I've been trying to Google it, but I can't find any results.
[06:13] <jska> Anyone know how to play *.pmp media file (from Sony PSP)?
[06:13] <adamonline45> ushimitsudoki1: ooh neat, that's what I want, hehe... I take it you've extensively modified your kernel?
[06:13] <MasterFruityLoop> zubumufu: Google what?
[06:13] <MasterFruityLoop> jska: Consider VLC.
[06:13] <ushimitsudoki1> adamonline45: no no there is a -rt kernel in the repositories. simple to install
[06:13] <zubumufu> Full disk encryption on a Dell Inspiron 530N.
[06:13] <MasterFruityLoop> You want to? Why?
[06:13] <adamonline45> ushimitsudoki1: Oh realllly now
[06:13] <Flannel> zubumufu: Ah, yes.  That's correct.  You won't be able to use the dell custom CD to install LUKS, you'll have to use the alternate CD.  Whether you can get the dell stuff later, I'm not sure.
[06:14] <zubumufu> Dang
[06:14] <adamonline45> ushimitsudoki1: That sounds promising!  Do I have to compile from source, or can I upgrade from 6.06 using some utility, do you know?
[06:14] <jska> MasterFruityLoop: I try with VLC,xine,mplayer,but not work
[06:14] <zubumufu> Buying Dell is supposed to make it easier.
[06:14] <MasterFruityLoop> Weird...
[06:14] <Gun_Smoke> What is dell adding to the install?
[06:14] <Fondor1> sekyourbox: aptitude: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/serverguide/C/aptitude.html
[06:14] <MasterFruityLoop> jska: Have you considered talking to the all knowing?
[06:15] <zubumufu> I dunno, drivers or something.
[06:15] <Flannel> Gun_Smoke: mp3 and dvd, I believe, plus who knows what else
[06:15] <lyk3n> hello
[06:15] <sekyourbox> thanks
[06:15] <ushimitsudoki1> adamonline45: yes, give it a try. note that if you have compiled any drivers you will prob have to reinstall when you change kernels (like nvidia). You do not have to compile the -rt kernel. Not sure about 6.06 - Me, i would go ahead and upgrade to 8.04, but that might not be an option for you
[06:15] <xess> Dual monitors on a Radeon RV100 QY [Radeon 7000/VE] any one know where to start?
[06:15] <Flannel> zubumufu: It does make it easier.  I believe dell has their own repositories, which may be where you get those extras
[06:15] <zubumufu> Oh and it includes the DVD playback stuff on the Dell CD.
[06:16] <zubumufu> Yeah, I'm probably still going to get it, but I'm just bracing for the difficulty.
[06:16] <Flannel> zubumufu: I doubt it'll be difficult.  But you should call and ask if they have a repository to enable you to install that stuff afterwards, or what.
[06:17] <zubumufu> Flannel: Yeah, that's a good idea.
[06:18] <adamonline45> ushimitsudoki1: No, no, I am fine going to 8.04; I'm actually excited because last time I looked into it it was still in beta 8)  By my question I mean, is it possible that I can just upgrade from 6.06 to 8.04 -rt ?  Or do you think I'd need to start anew?  Oh, also, this is 6.06 server... do you know if there's an 8.04 -rt server version? (googling simultaneously, but direct help is sure a sweet nectar 8))
[06:18] <tuxxy__> hey anyone can help me, when i try to play and system sounds they wont work, but ever other type of sound works, MP3, flash etc
[06:18] <Flannel> adamonline45: You can upgrade from 6.06 to 8.04 yes.  But you should upgrade first, and then add the realtime kernel afterwards
[06:18] <drew_chicago> trying to use evolution as the mail client for gmail. trouble is it's downloading every e-mail I ever had in gmail. anyone know how to set it to just get NEW e-mail?
[06:18] <tuxxy__> im using ALSA and the login logout sounds play fine when i actually logout but when i try to test any system sounds they wont work including those
[06:19] <tuxxy__> and every other system sound wont work at all
[06:19] <lyk3n> try turning all of your sound outputs alsa
[06:19] <tuxxy__> they are
[06:19] <tuxxy__> i think its a bug
[06:19] <Flannel> adamonline45: There is no realtime server edition, but that doesn't make a lot of sense anyway.  Server kernel has longer periods between interrupts over the desktop CD, and stuff like that.  Sort of the opposite direction of the realtime kernel.  Why are you interested in -rt anyway?
[06:19] <ushimitsudoki1> adamonline45: i think you have to upgrade from one version to the next? not sure about that but i bet upgrade manager will walk you through it. I don't think the kernel is different between server and non-server versions, it is just the included packages (again not sure about that either).
[06:19] <Flannel> drew_chicago: That's not how IMAP works
[06:19] <lyk3n> this happens a lot and sorry to say there are a lot of fixes depending on the exact sound problem
[06:20] <lyk3n> another fix was to download alsa gui and make sure it is not muted
[06:20] <drew_chicago> flannel, so I have to download over 10,000 emails?
[06:20] <tuxxy__> the exact problem is system sounds dont work except login/out but they only work when i do login, if i test them they dont play
[06:20] <Flannel> drew_chicago: You have to download 10,000 headers more likely.
[06:20] <tuxxy__> its not I have alsa gui
[06:20] <drew_chicago> ok, maybe I should set it to just get the headers then
[06:21] <drew_chicago> thanks, if nothing else that'll save some time
[06:21] <patrick_> hey
[06:21] <patrick_> i just enable the cube feature
[06:21] <patrick_> now does any 1 know how i can view it in cube
[06:21] <InHisName> cd //
[06:21] <kr00l> hello, i need help installing "uplink-complete-1[1].54.sh"
[06:21] <Flannel> drew_chicago: Also you may want to set it to download all the bodies too, and just leave it running overnight or whatnot.  Save you from having to do it in the future
[06:22] <tech0007> patrick_: ctrl+alt and left/right arrow
[06:22] <tech0007> patrick_: or use the mouse
[06:22] <lyk3n> patrick download advanced desktop effects in the add/remove programs
[06:22] <drew_chicago> flannel ok thanks, leaving it run at night should workout okay, thanks!
[06:22] <adamonline45> Flannel: That sounds acceptable.  Installing a new kernel is "new" territory for me, and I hate to have downtime; but it should pay off!  I am using this for a Counter-Strike: Source server.  Do you suppose I should just go for the desktop version?  I went with server edition to cut down on any overhead (even though I would just run in init 3 or 2 (hehe, man, it's been a while!)
[06:22] <lyk3n> then go to prefrences and enable
[06:22] <patrick_> oh ok thx
[06:23] <Flannel> adamonline45: do you use this machine for your desktop as well?
[06:23] <tuxxy__> where are system sounds located so i cna try manually play them
[06:23] <InHisName> I get this message, "I could not start your session and so I have . . " and then no desktop.  How to fix this.
[06:24] <adamonline45> Flannel: Nope, purely for a dedicated CS server; all CLI...  Doesn't even have a head...
[06:24] <lyk3n> tuxxy go to system prefrences sound
[06:24] <Ademan> is there a trivial way to mount fatx partitions in ubuntu? I don't see any references to a kernel module in synaptic, and i *assume* it's not compiled into the default kernel, can anyone confirm this and tell me how I would go about getting the appropriate fatx kernel module?
[06:24] <Flannel> adamonline45: I'd stick with the server kernel then, if your hardware supports it.
[06:24] <adamonline45> Flannel: So you might see why I went with server edition... But apparenly I mis-assumed the strengths of it!:O
[06:25] <Flannel> adamonline45: you'll get worse performance for that with the realtime kernel.
[06:25] <lyk3n> you can also double click on the sound icon and try different devices to see if they work
[06:27] <tuxxy__> where are system sounds located so i cna try manually play them
[06:27] <rockets> hey
[06:28] <adamonline45> Flannel: Very well... Oh, really?  Well, basically, I need to have at least 200 game updates/second (500 is ideal, but my rig sure as heck doesn't do THAT!)... Right now I'm artificially capped at 100 because of the kernel; and it's been really bad... When I was running my old custom kernel (up to a few months ago), I had 500 kernel Hz, and that was giving players an average of 50 updates/second (as opposed to ~25 now).
[06:28] <lyk3n> for anyone heres a fix for 8.04 sound http://dontfeedtheseagulls.com/2008/05/04/realtek-alc888-and-ubuntu-hardy-heron-low-audio-problem/
[06:28] <WebWalker> good day everyone
[06:28] <adamonline45> Flannel: So, if I stick with the server edition (my preference, tbh), what are my options for increasing that kernel frequency?  Is there a pre-made kernel for it, inthe same way that there is the -rt kernel for the desktop version?
[06:28] <lyk3n> other sound problems mostly tell you to install flashplugin non-free
[06:29] <tuxxy__> i dont have problems with sound
[06:29] <tuxxy__> the problem is system sound files wont play everything else will
[06:29] <Flannel> adamonline45: Try the generic kernel.  It has interrupts scheduled closer together.
[06:29] <adamonline45> ushimitsudoki1: I haven't forgotten, hehe!  Thank you for you help; I've got a great base for research now 8)
[06:29] <adamonline45> Flannel: Is the generic kernel not the same that it comes with by default?
[06:29] <Flannel> adamonline45: The server kernel has longer interrupt periods (to allow more work to be done), but apparently you need more frequent ones.
[06:29] <L_inf1> how do I remove the unused options in the grub window??
[06:30] <ushimitsudoki1> adamonline45: well good luck there sounds like Flannel has the good word on the matter
[06:30] <Flannel> adamonline45: the generic kernel is the default one now, yes.  On Dapper it was -686 -386 -k7 etc, now they're all wrapped into one. -geeric
[06:30] <adamonline45> Flannel: Indeed, there are only a handful of 2D vectors and net packets that it has to deal with at each update...
[06:30] <lyk3n> tuxxy the sounds are disabled by default
[06:31] <adamonline45> Flannel: Oooh, okay.  So, if I update to Hardy Heron, would that include a Kernel update to this Generic one?
[06:31] <Flannel> adamonline45: Alright, well, if generic isn't fast enough, you *could* try -rt but I'd definately *try* it first.  And see if itsbetter or not.
[06:31] <Flannel> adamonline45: If you have -server installed now, you'll have -server installed then.
[06:31] <lyk3n> if you want to add sounds go to sytem click prefrences then click on the sounds tab
[06:31] <cheeky> I installed the the extra stuff codecs and it works on some sites but iam visiting the apple site to check a video but it errors me out; failed toconnect stream :invalid argument thisis the link http://www.apple.com/retail/?cid=CDM-US-iPod-C0007732-130246&Email_PageName=C0007732-130246&Email_OID=330641&cp=130246&sr=em
[06:32] <lacuna> anyone know if you can set global hotkeys in VLC?
[06:33] <tuxxy__> the sound files at /usr/share/sounds work fine if i play them manually, but wont work if i test them or try to apply them
[06:33] <adamonline45> Flannel: ooh, ok.  I'll have to find out how to change kernels then! Do you happen to know how I find out the different kernel frequencies of the -server -vs- the -generic kernels?  Google is being minimally helpful in that regard...
[06:33] <Fondor1> L_inf1: You need to edit the file /boot/grub/menu.lst  Make sure you save a backup of the file before you do any editing!
[06:33] <tuxxy__> in system > prefs > sound
[06:34] <lyk3n> tuxxy just click on the sound tab in that menu
[06:34] <lyk3n> then add the sounds

[06:35] <Veinor> I'm having an issue with my HP pavilion DV9235nr where it just occasionally freezes; any music playing starts skipping, and it doesn't respond at all even to ctrl-sysrq shortcuts.
[06:35] <oops6_4> lacuna: yes you can set hot keys settings>prefre>interface>global
[06:35] <Veinor> This only happens during moments of high load (youtube, video games). Any ideas?
[06:35] <oops6_4> lacuna: yes you can set hot keys settings>prefre>interface>hotkeys
[06:35] <lacuna> okay, thanks. needed to know before i switched
[06:35] <oops6_4> lacuna: sorry for previes one
[06:35] <Flannel> adamonline45: You'll just install the -generic metapackage, um... I have an info page re: -generic and -server (actually geared towards server, but it'll work)
[06:36] <lyk3n> does anyone have linux on the playstation
[06:36] <adamonline45> Flannel: Cool!  sounds like that'll help!  :D
[06:37] <adamonline45> er, Flannel^^
[06:37] <oops6_4> is there any software to create animated flash in linux
[06:37] <lyk3n> opps i think blender is one
[06:38] <lyk3n> never mind i m wrong
[06:38] <oops6_4> lyk3n: blender is for 3d I want just for 2d
[06:38] <lyk3n> sorry
[06:39] <bryan> hello everyone, hope you're all having a good evening...  Question on running Sierra Wireless USBConnect 881 on Ubuntu 8.04... Can anyone help?
[06:39] <Flannel> adamonline45: http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/serveredition/features/kernel
[06:41] <adamonline45> Flannel: Haha, I must owe you a couple brews by now... But, didn't you propose I stick with the server install?  If I go from -server kernel to -generic kernel, will it still be a 'server' install?  It looks like the comparison on that article is between Ubuntu Server and Ubuntu Desktop...
[06:42] <bryan> I have followed the instructions on SIerra Wireless's website up to the kernel patch part...  wasn't sure if I need to patch the kernel on 8.04 or not...
[06:42] <Flannel> adamonline45: The kernel has nothing to do with the desktop environments (or lack thereof) installed.
[06:43] <bryan> http://www.sierrawireless.com/faq/ShowFAQ.aspx?ID=607
[06:43] <adamonline45> Flannel: That's what I suspected 8)  Just that the desktop comes with -generic, so the numbers presented still answer my question, then! hehe :)

[07:00] <jerald> Can I get some help here?
[07:00] <nick01> ro.archive.ubuntu.com is not working cant update or install packages- anybody knows whats wrong ? seems hosted by roedu who's ftp is not working either
[07:00] <nomad77> jerald: sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[07:01] <jerald> Now what?
[07:01] <xinliGG> Ademan, you are here:P
[07:01] <geirha> jerald: Is it gnome-display-properties you are looking for?
[07:02] <nomad77> jerald: depends on your hardware,read the file
[07:02] <Ademan> xinliGG: lol yeah, got some fixes?
[07:02] <jerald> THERE IS NOTHING IN THE FILE!
[07:02] <jerald> I am just very angry because I just got this, and it is not working
[07:02] <Ademan> xinliGG: to #ubuntu-offtopic!
[07:02] <jerald> Geirha, I don't know
[07:02] <geirha> jerald: What graphics hardware do you have?
[07:02] <jerald> I need the thing that I can set what my computer graphics drivers are and what not
[07:03] <jerald> I have an Intel card
[07:03] <CHaiNS> maybe you should go back to windows there jerald
[07:04] <Fondor1> CHaiNS, give the guy a chance
[07:04] <jerald> The thing is I don't wanna go back to Windows.... I just got this because I wanted to get away from it and learn something else
[07:04] <nomad77> jerald: ati,nvidia,intel,sis ?? or what?
[07:04] <jerald> I just said INTEL
[07:04] <jerald> x.x
[07:04] <Flannel> !patience | jerald
[07:04] <geirha> jerald: Intel cards only have open source drivers as far as I know. They usually work fairly well. Run « xrandr » in a terminal to list the possible resolutions
[07:04] <Fondor1> Ubuntu is a good place to start jerald.  Some things are different though - namely, it doesn't technically have a "control panel" like windows does
[07:05] <Flannel> jerald: If your xorg.conf is blank, you likely opened the wrong file.
[07:05] <Flannel> CHaiNS: Please be helpful in this channel.
[07:05] <jerald> fondorl, these setting are wrong, hence why it is causing the thing to NOT work, and makes the screen all flashy
[07:06] <Emm> I've added a user to sudoers with visudo
[07:06] <Emm> and set it NOPASSWD=ALL
[07:06] <jerald> Could I possibly find my Intel drivers so I can freaking see without getting a headache
[07:06] <Emm> like ya do when you want it to be able to sudo without asking for a pass
[07:06] <Emm> yet it insists on asking me for sudo password.
[07:06] <ph0rensic> jerald: Check to make sure if your missing anything in the file path... Linux is case sensitive so typing x11 instead of X11 could be why yo are not seeing anything .. like flannel referred to
[07:06] <CHaiNS> with his attitude i should be helpful?
[07:07] <legend2440> is there any advantage using the    Ubuntu 8.04.1, kernel 2.6.24-19-rt  over using the    Ubuntu 8.04.1, kernel 2.6.24-19-generic?
[07:07] <Flannel> CHaiNS: If you're going to respond at all, you should be helpful, yes.
[07:07] <jerald> Screw thsi
[07:07] <jerald> This
[07:07] <Fondor1> jerald: are you on a CRT?
[07:07] <jerald> Hell no
[07:07] <gaintsura> I've managed to get back into gnome using a basic xorg.conf configuration, if I enable fglrx the screen goes nuts and I cannot see anything but distorted windows, how can I fix fglrx, it was working the other day, now cairo-dock, compiz, etc do not work, does anyone have any ideas or possibly point me in the right direction?
[07:07] <ph0rensic> Flannel: Hows it hangin bro?
[07:08] <geirha> jerald: «sudo lshw -class display» will show you the specs on your graphics hardware.
[07:08] <Flannel> ph0rensic: Howdy.  Doing fine, yourself?
[07:08] <jerald> geirha, now what?
[07:08] <ph0rensic> Flannel: Not too shabby, just killing time before i play some poker roulette, a game i made up last night that rocks!
[07:08] <Fondor1> jerald: do you have another system you can talk to us on, so you don't get a headache trying to read to us? ;)
[07:08] <Flannel> Emm: Why do you want to do that?
[07:08] <jerald> No
[07:09] <ph0rensic> jerald: What is the problem?
[07:09] <Emm> Flannel: Because I'm running dsh from another machine
[07:09] <jerald> Forget it... I am probably just going back to XP
[07:09] <Emm> and it needs sudo permissions to copy into the right directories
[07:09] <geirha> jerald: what did xrandr say the highest solution was?
[07:09] <ph0rensic> jerald: if that is what you want to do, I dont recommend it though
[07:09] <jerald> 600 x 800, which I know is wrong
[07:09] <Flannel> !fixres | jerald
[07:09] <nomad77> Emm: maybe you didn't save it correctly its first-comment-stanza,the first line just remove the comment the # sign and save
[07:10] <kevin__> how do i enable use of restricted drivers?
[07:10] <Emm> nomad77: hmm
[07:10] <ph0rensic> kevin__: There is the restricted driver manager in the latest version of ubuntu
[07:10] <kevin__> how do i get to this ph0rensic
[07:10] <ph0rensic> kevin__: System -->Admin --> Hardware drivers
[07:10] <wookienz> hi, i am mounting a NAS device dir on my ubuntu machine. it mounts fine but when i try and cd to the mount i get permission denied. any ideas?
[07:10] <ph0rensic> kevin__: Is this for a gfx card?
[07:11] <kevin__> wireless card
[07:11] <ph0rensic> kevin__: Oh I see, haven't had to deal with those in a while .. hopefully it detects your card
[07:11] <kevin__> ph0rensic, all i see is a device driver (Brodcom B43 wireless dirver) and it says not in use....how do i make it "in use"
[07:12] <ph0rensic> kevin__: Cool it found it, is there not a checkmark you can select?
[07:12] <Emm> I've now uncommented that line
[07:12] <Emm> and added the user to the sudo group in /etc/group
[07:12] <Emm> should that suffice?
[07:12] <kevin__> ph0rensic: its checked enabled..but it has a red light and says Not in use under status
[07:12] <ph0rensic> kevin__: Oh you may have to restart for that to enable
[07:13] <kevin__> k let me try that, thanks ph0rensic
[07:13] <nomad77> Emm: a logout and login is req'd for changes to apply irrc
[07:13] <ph0rensic> kevin__: Atleast thats how it was with my gfx card
[07:13] <kevin__> brb, maybe?
[07:13] <steveydoteu> 64 bit proc, low ram at present, would i still be okay to install amd64 version of 8.04?
[07:13] <ph0rensic> wookienz: hey man is that a nas server or like a preconfigured tower like a buffalo, etc?
[07:14] <wookienz> ph0rensic: thecus...like a buffalo...raid 5 4 disk array
[07:14] <ph0rensic> steveydoteu: It may behoove you to stick with the x86 version
[07:14] <ph0rensic> wookienz: Ok, so that should rule out permissions based discrepancies on the NAS server, so it should be a mounting issue
[07:14] <steveydoteu> ph0rensic, why so?
[07:15] <steveydoteu> the lack of ram would hold me back?
[07:15] <ph0rensic> steveydoteu: I've fooled around with both, and the thing is there is more support for the x86 version.. and not too much performance gain
[07:15] <steveydoteu> aah
[07:15] <steveydoteu> I see
[07:15] <wookienz> ph0rensic: if the nas was ntfs can i still mount it? unsure if it is or not.
[07:16] <Debanman> Can i get a ban pls
[07:16] <Flannel> Debanman: Please take it up in #ubuntu-ops
[07:16] <ph0rensic> wookienz: Yes but you have to have parameters set so it knows how to mount it
[07:16] <steveydoteu> another question, if i just tried a distro upgrade to 8.10 via > update-manager -d and it failed, how do i clean up/rollback without having to completely reinstall the system
[07:17] <wookienz> ph0rensic: http://paste.ubuntu.com/45185/
[07:17] <kevin__> hey ph0rensic: I'm back..rebooted and same senario.
[07:17] <kevin__> ph0rensic: any ideas?
[07:17] <Debanman> I would like to getmyself klined is that possibel
[07:18] <ph0rensic> kevin__: Not atm .. afk for a bit
[07:18] <kevin__> kk
[07:18] <jerald> Ok
[07:18] <ph0rensic> wookienz:  AFK for a bit hang in there k?
[07:18] <jerald> I wanna thank you all... especially whoever told me the terminal command to reset it
[07:18] <nomad77> !ntfs-3g | wookienz
[07:18] <jerald> Cause, it is working now
[07:19] <Socceroos_home> wow, ubuntu has been acknowledged as a competitor to Windows Vista in a news article on Australia's leading news website: http://www.australianit.news.com.au/story/0,24897,24314821-5013640,00.html

[07:24] <Emm> hmm
[07:24] <Flannel> robbo0: no problem.
[07:24] <Emm> still no love, still asking for a sudo password for the user
[07:25] <hchufeng> some one who can help me?
[07:26] <gaintsura> when configuring the driver line for use with aticonfig, do you  HAVE to use the line driver "fglrx" or is there some other possibility other than fglrx? fglrx is toasted and I cant figure out why/what
[07:26] <patrick> HEY
[07:26] <patrick> i enabled the cube feature
[07:26] <patrick> but i cant get it to go to a cube mode
[07:26] <jerald> Quick question... is 8.10 going to look as sweet as the ss's I have seen online?
[07:27] <Flannel> jerald: You'd have to ask that in #ubuntu+1
[07:27] <Guest86524> does any 1 know ow to use the cube feature
[07:27] <Guest86524> i already have it turned on
[07:28] <jerald> Anyone know when the release date for 8.10 is?
[07:29] <Guest86524> jerald
[07:29] <Guest86524> do you know how to enable the cube
[07:29] <HappyHater> Guest86524, ccsm > general options > desktop size > set horizontal to 4
[07:29] <Flannel> !intrepid | jerald
[07:29] <Guest86524> thx happy hater
[07:29] <jerald> Flannel, I was asking for a specific date... I know it is suppose to be next month.
[07:30] <Flannel> jerald: the topic of that channel should have the release schedule.  Usually said factoid does.
[07:30] <Guest86524> happy
[07:30] <Lacrimstein> Ibex Alpha 5 actually works very well on my compute
[07:30] <Guest86524> i dont think i have CCSM install do you know the cammand to install this?
[07:31] <Lacrimstein> there are a couple of bugs, but most of them are with applets
[07:31] <Lacrimstein> Guest86524:
[07:31] <jerald> Guest, its usually sudo apt-get install program
[07:31] <tenbytes> ug why is "grep ^Anchor Text:[.*chlamydia.*]$ " returning more then a single line that doesnt contain what i'm looking for
[07:31] <HappyHater> sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager i think
[07:31] <Lacrimstein> sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager
[07:31] <Guest86524> oh wait i do have it installed
[07:31] <jerald> Does anyone know the name of the object dock program?
[07:31] <Flannel> tenbytes: escape the [ ]s
[07:31] <Lacrimstein> avant-window-navigator?
[07:32] <tenbytes> backlinks/www.cdc.govstdChlamydiaSTDFact-Chlamydia.htm:Anchor HREF:[http://www.cdc.gov/std/Chlamydia/STDFact-Chlamydia.htm]
[07:32] <tenbytes> backlinks/www.cdc.govstdChlamydiaSTDFact-Chlamydia.htm:Anchor Text:[Chlamydia]
[07:32] <FloodBot2> tenbytes: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:32] <jerald> Lacrimstein, was that aimed at me?
[07:32] <Flannel> tenbytes: in Regexps, [] denote a character class.  So anything inside of it becomes what its looking for, and its looking for one of them.
[07:32] <Guest86524> ok i see the cube
[07:32] <tenbytes> hmm
[07:32] <Guest86524> but it flips too fast
[07:33] <Lacrimstein> yes
[07:33] <tenbytes> Anchor HREF:--its returning these lines
[07:33] <Guest86524> is there a way where i can set it with my mouse
[07:33] <jerald> Aren't there only two desktop workspaces though?
[07:33] <grendel> lstra.com
[07:33] <jerald> So, isn't a cube overkill?
[07:33] <Gnuyen> is there an easy way to enable sftp but not ssh login?
[07:33] <HappyHater> ctrl+alt+leftclick&hold
[07:33] <Flannel> tenbytes: Please use pastbin, it'll let me see what you're getting hits on.  Also, pastebin your regexp again, and *also* if you don't mind, can we move this to #ubuntu-offtopic?
[07:34] <cast> Gnuyen: scponly, is one way
[07:34] <Guest86524> happy thanks alot
[07:34] <tenbytes> how is it off topic
[07:34] <Guest86524> i see a cube
[07:34] <jerald> What does avant window navigator do?
[07:34] <HappyHater> np
[07:34] <Lacrimstein> its a dock
[07:35] <Lacrimstein> like in OS X
[07:35] <tenbytes> 1 sec
[07:35] <jerald> I just installed it and clicked it, but, nothing has happened yet
[07:35] <Lacrimstein> weird...
[07:35] <Guest86524> happy is there a way where i can make it zeem in without having to hold the mouse
[07:35] <gaintsura> is there a way to *completely* remove fglrx and its configurations?
[07:35] <jerald> A box flashes, that is about it....
[07:35] <Lacrimstein> you need compiz running for it
[07:35] <jerald> I need to get Compiz then... how?
[07:36] <Lacrimstein> youre using Hardy, right?
[07:36] <jerald> Yeah
[07:36] <HappyHater> Guest86524, not sure, try asking in #compiz-fusion
[07:36] <tenbytes> oh nevermind i fixed it
[07:36] <tenbytes> thanks anyway ;d
[07:36] <Lacrimstein> its in preferences->appearance
[07:36] <Lacrimstein> then in visual effects, select either normal or extra
[07:36] <Lacrimstein> that will enable compiz
[07:37] <Guest86524> oh ok
[07:37] <jerald> I now have multiple docks open
[07:37] <jerald> How do I close them
[07:37] <Emm> solved the problem
[07:37] <jerald> Lol
[07:37] <Lacrimstein> lol
[07:37] <Lacrimstein> go to terminal
[07:37] <Emm> NOPASSWD lines have to be defined last in /etc/sudoers.
[07:37] <Lacrimstein> and type:
[07:37] <Lacrimstein> killall avant-window-navigator
[07:37] <Lacrimstein> then start the dock again
[07:38] <kevin_> in wireless settings, what is the difference between "shared key" and "open system" ???
[07:39] <Flannel> kevin_: shared key is where everyone who connects has to put in the key (the same key for everyone)
[07:39] <gaintsura> Flannel: not really
[07:40] <gaintsura> I've got a network that is set to 'open system' but its all the same key
[07:40] <kevin_> Flannel: right, thats what i thought, but no
[07:40] <kevin_> ditto gaintsura
[07:40] <jerald> What happens if I delete the bottom panel and want it back?
[07:40] <gaintsura> jerald:  alt+f2 gnome-panel
[07:41]  * Flannel has only ever used that wifi manager thing once.  And shared key worked for me.  So, kevin_, I don't know then.

[07:43] <Lacrimstein> flame effect...
[07:43] <Lacrimstein> you mean when you close the window?
[07:43] <Guest86524> yea
[07:43] <Lacrimstein> it burns?
[07:43] <gaintsura> Guest86524: uncheck flame ? or is it fire? something like that
[07:43] <jerald> I need sleep, see ya all tomorrow
[07:44] <Guest86524> no i meant i just drew it with my mouse
[07:44] <Lacrimstein> oh lol
[07:44] <Guest86524> its like fire
[07:44] <Lacrimstein> i don't remember,
[07:44] <gaintsura> yeah, its the fire applet in compiz settings
[07:44] <Lacrimstein> but its the modifiers + c
[07:44] <Guest86524> oh  i just unchecked it
[07:44] <adamonline45> If I install a kernel package -- linux-image-xxxxxx, will all my files and non-kernel-based settings remain?
[07:44] <gaintsura> I think its 'super' +c
[07:45] <Lacrimstein> @adamonline45: yes
[07:45] <adamonline45> Lacrimstein: Thank you 8)
[07:45] <crdlb> robbo0: just select "Application in terminal" when creating the launcher
[07:45] <Guest86524> thanks alot
[07:45] <Guest86524> this thing is really cool
[07:45] <Lacrimstein> clearing the fire is shift+ctrl+c
[07:45] <Guest86524> thx lac
[07:46] <Lacrimstein> np ^^
[07:46] <Guest86524> whats some other cool feats should i try
[07:46] <Guest86524> i got the cube
[07:46] <Guest86524> the flame
[07:46] <Guest86524> need more
[07:46] <Lacrimstein> wobbly windows
[07:46] <Flannel> !enter
[07:46] <ay^_> gah! sometimes my portable (dell 1525 with vista preinstalled, now dual booting ubuntu 8.04.1) will start randomly (it seems) send right clicks, how can I stop this, or at least find out what would cause it?
[07:46] <Lacrimstein> wobbly windows + trasparency while moving + bloor = win
[07:46] <Guest86524>  yea got it
[07:47] <Lacrimstein> aquarium?
[07:47] <Guest86524> let me see
[07:47] <Lacrimstein> you can also mess with animations
[07:48] <Lacrimstein> i love the magic lamp for minimize
[07:48] <Palace_Chan> how can i scp an entire directory mydir/ ?
[07:48] <Guest86524> oh ok let me se
[07:48] <gaintsura> hmm, re-downloaded fglrx and ati driver packages, and yet when I place driver "fglrx" in xorg.conf the screen goes mosaic
[07:48] <gaintsura> does anyone have any suggestions?
[07:48] <HappyHater> need to hack it to use 0 waves though, the 3 waves minimum blows
[07:49] <ay^_> Palace_Chan: you dont afaik
[07:49] <ljuda> hjfghfgh
[07:49] <ay^_> Palace_Chan: tho you could use lftp to sftp it using mirror -R
[07:50] <Palace_Chan> mirror -R ? sounds like recursively ftping all the contents
[07:50] <ay^_> actually its reverse mirroring
[07:51] <ay^_> but it would upload the dir and all content
[07:51] <Guest86524> the animation effect doesnt seem to work
[07:52] <Lacrimstein> are you using compiz from git by any chance?
[07:53] <chronographer> HI. Anyone know anything about ide to sata adapters? I have a IDE hdd with an adapter and its all plugged in and got power, Ubuntu doesn't see it, gparted don't see it, how can I find out what is wrong?
[07:53] <Guest86524> me im using CCSM
[07:53] <Lacrimstein> hmm
[07:54] <Guest86524> well i just dont know how to check if it work or not
[07:54] <Lacrimstein> should be working fine
[07:54] <Guest86524> i minimize my window but i just get a woblly effect
[07:54] <chronographer> I go sata on mobo to sata to ide converter, to ide plug on hdd... what could go wrong?
[07:54] <Lacrimstein> yeah...
[07:55] <Lacrimstein> that is how it should be
[07:55] <Guest86524> then whats the animation deal
[07:55] <Omeil> !Ati
[07:55] <Guest86524> i see airplane
[07:55] <Lacrimstein> it kinda flows into the button on the pannel, right?
[07:55] <Guest86524> and other feature
[07:55] <Guest86524> yea
[07:55] <Lacrimstein> yeah
[07:55] <FloodBot2> Guest86524: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:55] <Flannel> chronographer: Are you sure its not seen at alll, as opposed to jsut being labeled /dev/sdX?
[07:55] <Lacrimstein> you can change it to anything
[07:55] <EJ> anyone ever hear of WinSCP or give it a try ? I just found it and looked thru it, is quite the handy little utility.
[07:55] <Lacrimstein> fade, airplane, etc
[07:55] <chronographer> yeah... hold on I'll chek /dev/sd* again
[07:56] <Lacrimstein> basically animation changes how your windows react to minimization, opening, closing, etc
[07:56] <chronographer> just sda* and sdb*
[07:56] <Flannel> chronographer: Alright, does your BIOS see it?
[07:56] <Guest86524> oh ic
[07:56] <Guest86524> theres abunch of tabs...
[07:56] <chronographer> I don't know how to check, its not actually IDE so...
[07:56] <MrEgg964> Hi everybody :) I'm looking for software to resize an ogg video file, possibly also converting to avi. Any suggestions? TIA
[07:56] <chronographer> where do you see that?
[07:57] <chronographer> in bios?
[07:57] <Flannel> chronographer: Hmm, you'd... have to reboot, and see if your bios either shows all your harddrives, or perhaps lets you choose to boot to one (and your third is listed, etc).
[07:57] <Flannel> chronographer: They're all different, so we're sort of going to have to play it by ear.
[07:57] <chronographer> ok well... i will be back soon then!  where in the bios does it list hdds?
[07:58] <gaintsura> http://pastie.org/269500 could someone help me get fglrx working? every time I try to start it, its a different error message, this is the most recent. The screen goes mosaic when I startx with fglrx enabled
[07:59] <Guest86524> lacrimstein
[07:59] <Lacrimstein> yes?
[07:59] <Guest86524> im trying to create a closing one
[07:59] <Guest86524> i went to new and picked an animation then closed it
[07:59] <Guest86524> am i missing something because it isnt working
[08:00] <HappyHater> remove the one you added, just edit the existing ones
[08:00] <Guest86524> oh ok
[08:00] <steven__> Guest86524: You might want to try "simple-ccsm"
[08:01] <Lacrimstein> well which one did you choose?
[08:01] <steven__> Guest86524: It's in the repos. It's a very simple compiz manager that probably will have most of the settings you want to set.
[08:01] <Guest86524> steven i think im using the simple ccsm im just very new
[08:01] <Guest86524> lacrimstien ive got it now
[08:02] <Emm> hmm
[08:02] <Mc_abyss> I have my animations set to random that way I dont have to worry about changing them lol
[08:02] <Emm> can I do something like
[08:02] <Emm> sudo cmc; *run command*
[08:02] <Lacrimstein> lol
[08:02] <Emm> to run the command as the cmc user?
[08:02] <Guest86524> well mine is on random also but i get the same ones
[08:02] <Flannel> Emm: sudo -u cmc command
[08:04] <rajec> HI how to run terminal with starting path in directory where I am right now in Gnome commnader. In windows and total commander you run cmd for example
[08:04] <shabda> In a default Ubutnu install, after I do a apt-get install apache2, where would the httpd.conf be stored?
[08:05] <Kartagis> what encryption is ubuntu using in /etc/shadow?
[08:05] <Kartagis> crypt-md5?
[08:06] <Flannel> Kartagis: Its not encryption, its hashes.
[08:06] <Flannel> Kartagis: and, are you trying to set a password? or what?
[08:07] <Flannel> rajec: gnome commander or nautilus?
[08:07] <rob> WESOME! I'm playing Uplink in Ubuntu and they have an IRC Client that you can buy! This game is sweet!
[08:07] <Kartagis> Flannel> I am trying to configure horde and I was asked what encryption I use
[08:07] <rajec> Flannel gnome
[08:09] <oliver_> Hi everyone i need some help with setting up my ati drivers.
[08:10] <oliver_> If i install my drivers through ubuntu's hardware form and install the normal fgrlx i get the white screen.
[08:10] <hunter551> Hello, can someone help me get my internet on ubuntu back up?
[08:10] <jaakkome> Did you try envy?
[08:10] <Flannel> Kartagis: I believe it's md5, yes.  check /etc/pam.d/common-password
[08:10] <Flannel> !backup | hunter551
[08:11] <hunter551> I recently changed ISPs which meant a new adsl modem, i've installed and configured the internet on windows but upon booting into ubuntu the internet does not work
[08:11] <oliver_> jaakkome: I have tried envy, i just restarted from it apprently installing my drivers. well the ati control panel works but i have no 3D acceleration whats so ever
[08:11] <Kartagis> password   requisite   pam_unix.so nullok obscure md5 this?
[08:12] <Kartagis> Flannel> password   requisite   pam_unix.so nullok obscure md5 this?
[08:12] <Flannel> Kartagis: md5! yes.  md5 passwords
[08:12] <chronographer> Hi again. Checked bios, checked with second cable and the hdd is not recognised. i am using a sata to IDE adapter, do you think it needs power? (it has a small power socket on it) ??
[08:12] <Kartagis> okay thanks
[08:12] <Flannel> hunter551: ah.  That sentence makes much more sense read that way.
[08:12] <oliver_> jaakkome: although my xorg.conf looks like its not fully configured in the device section
[08:12] <Flannel> !pppoe | hunter551
[08:12] <SlimG> How do I rip a CD to .iso using cli?
[08:13] <jaakkome> oliver_, well, I'm actually still having problems with my laptop's ati drivers, too
[08:13] <oliver_> Identifier	"Configured Video Device", Option		"VideoOverlay"	"on", Option		"OpenGLOverlay"	"off", Driver		"fglrx"
[08:13] <hunter551> ubottu the problem is i've already configured the modem and would prefer not to touch that
[08:13] <oliver_> jaakkome: thats the device section of my xorg.conf
[08:13] <chronographer> Flannel: what do you think? My hdd is not recognised by bios, do sta 2 ide adapters usually require power?
[08:14] <Flannel> chronographer: I have no idea.  But if its not showing up at all, it's not something the OS is doing.  So, it appears to be hardware related
[08:14] <oliver_> jaakkome: but then fglrxinfo tells me that the opengl renderer is MESA GL
[08:14] <chronographer> yeah.
[08:15] <hunter551> i just need to get ubuntu to connect to the modem.
[08:15] <chronographer> i have no spare molexs in the box to test that now.... damn! need a trip to the compuiter shop
[08:16] <tiopastafrola> hello
[08:16] <chronographer> hmmm... looks like on further enquiry to require power from a floppy adapter... damn
[08:17] <tiopastafrola> im from argentina
[08:17] <tiopastafrola> theres is an irc in spanish?
[08:17] <Teem> where can i find ubuntu 6.10 repos?
[08:17] <rajec>  /msg nickserv identify asdfasdf
[08:17] <chronographer> hehehe!
[08:17] <chronographer> prolly didn't mean to say that out loud eh!
[08:17] <Flannel> rajec: You'll want to change that password.
[08:17] <Flannel> !es | tiopastafrola
[08:17] <Flannel> !ar | tiopastafrola
[08:17] <rajec> Flannel: hmm ;)
[08:18] <shital__> while booting its waiting at "waiting for root file system " even though i have given command line option as root=/dev/sda1?? can any one tell me why??
[08:18] <tiopastafrola> graciassssssssssss!!!
[08:18] <Flannel> Teem: Edgy has reached EOL and is no longer supported.  You should upgrade to something that is supported.
[08:18] <Teem> what is best way to upgrade 6.10.....?  so wish i had installed 6.06
[08:19] <Flannel> !upgrade | Teem
[08:19] <Flannel> Teem: There's a few issues with 6.10, since the repos have changed a little, but the method is more or less the same.  You... just... need a workaround.  You'll switch your repos over to : http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu and then follow that page, save the workaround.
[08:19] <oliver_> !envy
[08:20] <rajec> flannel: when changing password what is <key> parameter?
[08:21] <Flannel> rajec: I have no idea, sorry.
[08:22] <Teem> so i should follow the website and do a 6.10 to 7.04 upgrade
[08:22] <d_dyer> i need some help,i am fairly new to ubuntu and i am wanting to know how to install themes from the archive manager?
[08:22] <Flannel> Teem: Yes.  And if you run into this bug, here's the workaround: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/235527
[08:22] <Flannel> Teem: You'll also, once you get to 7.04, want to upgrade to 7.10, since 7.04 will reach EOL in October

[08:33] <mojo> hi, i am running ubuntu 8.04 server as a gateway/router connecting my cable modem to my lan.  i am using webmin, dhcp, squid transparent proxy, and shoreline firewall config.  i want to add wireless support with a linksys residential gateway.  i have an eth on the svr set to <IP_ADDRESS>/24 with dhcp, and set the linksys to make <IP_ADDRESS>/24 network and enabled dhcp.

[08:35] <cibbao> hi
[08:35] <Taco24501> no desktop at all
[08:35] <mojo> is this workable to make my wired lan <IP_ADDRESS>/24 talk nice with the wireless <IP_ADDRESS>/24 network?  do i need to run the linksys in router mode as opposed to gateway?  i don't understand difference.  right now i can surf from the laptop via wireless, but can't see the wired lan computers.  plus, i worry about multiple nats since the linksys is a nat router and the server has masq active.
[08:35] <Guest86524> hey guys
[08:35] <mojo> do i need to buy a wlan interface for the server that i can run in AP mode or can i make this linksys thing work hung off the spare eth like i have tried to set up?

[08:52] <XGas> starn: Driver version too old, get the Envy package
[08:52] <baba_melone> Hi, how much is 64bit ubuntu faster than common 32bit
[08:52] <starn> i used the eny package
[08:52] <starn> i'll try again..
[08:53] <baba_melone> Im just downloading 64 bit, but with my inet connection it would take 1:30h
[08:53] <baba_melone> and 32 bit is already here
[08:53] <XGas> baba_melone: Not much, if you use Intel's processor.
[08:53] <XGas> bab_melone: If you use AMD, 64 bit on AMD is much much faster.
[08:53] <baba_melone> XGas:What d'you mean by not much(Im using intel)
[08:53] <BunTai> how do i put protection script in xchat like mirc?
[08:54] <douye> How can i install nmap 4.75 ? (I already tried rpm -vhU http://nmap.org/dist/nmap-4.75-1.i386.rpm, but that wouldnt work)
[08:54] <XGas> baba_melone: Not much as in, not worth the trouble of setting up 32bit library support for some obscure programs.
[08:54] <BunTai> how do i put protection script in xchat like mirc?
[08:56] <Gralco> Hi everyone
[08:56] <douye> How can i install nmap 4.75 ? (I already tried rpm -vhU http://nmap.org/dist/nmap-4.75-1.i386.rpm, but that wouldnt work)
[08:56] <dusty_> Hey guys I am trying to get a network aliases working: http://rafb.net/p/nxIkl586.html on reboot it says eth:1 can't assign address, i add the ifconfig line to rc.local and that brings it up, i want it to work using the interfaces file but it doesnt seem to what am i doing wrong: http://rafb.net/p/nxIkl586.html ?
[08:57] <XGas> baba_melone: AMD's x86-64bit out performs Intel's x86-64, due to Intel not implemented /some/ instruction sets on 64bit
[08:57] <XGas> baba_melone: Which leads to: How fast it is compared to 32bit?
[08:58] <XGas> baba_melone: Not very much, 64bit has larger addressing range, and that means slower memory latency, Intel has the memory controller on chipset side(northbridge), AMD has it on CPU directly, result: AMD wins.
[08:59] <g33k_gir1> my bf did something to my ubuntu machine a while back to make it boot into the 18 kernel, because virtualbox wasn't available for the 19 kernel at the time. now that it is available, what do I change to boot into the 19 now?
[09:00] <chazco> Hi... suspend doesnt work with Ubuntu. I'm told that adding "options snd-hda-intel model=targa-2ch-dig" to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base will fix it. Can anyone explain what this actually does?
[09:00] <douye> How can i install nmap 4.75 ? (I already tried rpm -vhU http://nmap.org/dist/nmap-4.75-1.i386.rpm, but that wouldnt work)
[09:00] <XGas> bab_melone: if you are doing rendering work or /large/ mathematical calculations which doesn't require latency performance, you will see a very good increase in performance.
[09:00] <dusty_> anyone
[09:01] <g33k_gir1> also, I have 2 machines running side by side, same internet connection. one is giving me apt-get install errors (failed to fetch, and unable to resolve)... whats up with that?

[09:08] <krish> ok but the router manufacturers only mention abt windows
[09:08] <Guest2503> for all 4 cubes
[09:08] <krish> will linksys be compatible?
[09:08] <moncojhr> yes
[09:08] <krish> wat about configuring it?
[09:08] <moncojhr> normally you configure it using the routers web interface
[09:08] <Dabbu> any one familiar with amule..here because i am not able to decide which server i should use
[09:09] <krish> ok so will that be accessible in ubuntu also?
[09:09] <moncojhr> yes
[09:09] <krish> ok moncojhr thanks a lot for your help
[09:09] <phoney> krish, not if you plan to use the setup cd tho
[09:09] <moncojhr> routers come with setup cds?
[09:09] <krish> did nt get phoney? pls repeat again
[09:10] <ph0ney> some of the linksys one do
[09:10] <moncojhr> what for?
[09:10] <ph0ney> or, maybe its just the ap
[09:10] <ph0ney> s
[09:10] <d_dyer> when i try to install a theme in the Appearance Preferences i hit install then i find my theme "Blue-Joy"  then i get GTK-2.0 and metacity-1....metacity-1 is empty while gtk-2.0 has all of these sub folders so can anyone help me install themes?
[09:10] <krish> oh so linksys will nt work in ubuntu?
[09:10] <ph0ney> of course they will do
[09:11] <ph0ney> disregard my comment if it confuses you :)
[09:11] <krish> but the CD will be for windows right?
[09:11] <d_dyer> use Wine if it is for windows
[09:11] <moncojhr> as long as you arnt connecting to the router via usb, it will be smooth :-)
[09:11] <d_dyer> search for it in the add/remove items
[09:12] <krish> so will we be able to configure the linksys router in ubuntu  without the CD right?
[09:12] <moncojhr> yeah for sure
[09:12] <ph0ney> yep
[09:12] <Cew_mAnis> hay.....................
[09:12] <krish> i will be connecting to the router through ethernet so tht will be fine right?
[09:12] <d_dyer> does it have a website you can go to like netgear has a site to config routers
[09:13] <d_dyer> yes krish
[09:13] <d_dyer> i have a netgear router via ethernet and it works fine
[09:13] <moncojhr> d_dyer: did the theme come with a .so file
[09:13] <d_dyer> IDK
[09:13] <d_dyer> how can i check
[09:13] <krish> hey guys and i have short listed linksys? can you suggest some good routers?
[09:13] <GamingX> Hi, I am having problem installing Ubuntu 8.04, I keep getting redirected to an 'initramfs' prompt, how do I solve it?
[09:14] <krish>  hey guys and i have short listed linksys? can you suggest some good routers?
[09:14] <d_dyer> Netgear is a great router
[09:14] <krish> oh really? is netgear easy to configure?
[09:14] <d_dyer> Netgear WGR614 IS GREAT
[09:14] <g33k_gir1> netgear is very easy
[09:14] <krish> ok
[09:15] <g33k_gir1> some netgear models even come with linux drivers on the enclosed C
[09:15] <d_dyer> yes netgear has a sit you can go to http://www.routerlogin.net
[09:15] <g33k_gir1> C
[09:15] <d_dyer> so you can config it from that site
[09:15] <g33k_gir1> dammit - D key not working too well. CD
[09:15] <Dabbu> anyone.....ANY help on amule
[09:15] <krish> ok will try it
[09:15] <Dabbu> ?
[09:15] <krish> so netgear is worth investing our hard earned money right?
[09:15] <d_dyer> when i try to install a theme in the Appearance Preferences i hit install then i find my theme "Blue-Joy"  then i get GTK-2.0 and metacity-1....metacity-1 is empty while gtk-2.0 has all of these sub folders so can anyone help me install themes?
[09:15] <d_dyer> yes
[09:15] <d_dyer> my router was $60.00
[09:16] <d_dyer> Works great
[09:16] <GamingX> Does anyone know why the problem is occuring?
[09:16] <mojo> krish:  you should be able to connect to <IP_ADDRESS> or maybe <IP_ADDRESS> and get the linksys router's admin web page.  the login info you'll have to look up in your book for the defaults; may have to factory reset the router to get in.  usu. admin and "user" or nothing, IIRC (which is hazy)
[09:16] <krish> i have not bought one yet
[09:16] <ajonat> GamingX, intrepid?
[09:16] <Guest2503> can some 1 help me please
[09:16] <krish> iam going to buy netgear right away :)
[09:16] <mojo> krish:  what i mean is use your browser and point it to http://<IP_ADDRESS>/
[09:17] <GamingX> ajonat:?

[09:17] <krish> i will be connecting a laptop, desktop and a PC as webserver to the router
[09:18] <mojo> Dabbu:  maybe there's an amule chan?
[09:18] <d_dyer> hey

[09:18] <krish> will netgear suit my need?
[09:18] <Fr3e-DoM> Just installed Ubuntu in my new PC work great !
[09:18] <Guest2503> please help how do i install different background in each cube?
[09:18] <d_dyer> i have 2 desktops and 2 laptops connected to it and it works fine for me
[09:19] <d_dyer> i also build websites and it does fine for me
[09:19] <CAiRO_HH> hi, how can i disable eth0 completely? i have lots of problems because some service (networkmanager) tries to give a new ip to the interface each time i start my vpn connection
[09:19] <GamingX> ajonat: No, it is the 8.04 Desktop version shipped by Ubuntu.
[09:19] <krish> oh d_dyer thanks a lot
[09:20] <krish> i have got my answer and also going to buy the same router that you have
[09:20] <d_dyer> no problem

[09:21] <krish> ok
[09:21] <moncojhr> d_dyer: dont you just drag the theme folder into the themes window?
[09:21] <d_dyer> i will try that
[09:22] <moncojhr> i did it a couple days ago and already forgot what i did, seemed really easy though...
[09:23] <d_dyer> OMG IT WORKED thanks
[09:23] <moncojhr> lol sweet
[09:23] <BunTai> how do i put protection script in xchat like mirc?
[09:23] <Guest2503> please help me
[09:23] <vortec> hi there! i want to modify an entry in /etc/fstab. right now i have a line that sets chmod 644 on newly created files (which is correct), but i need 770 for several reasons. umask does not apply here. are there any other ways i can solve this issue?=
[09:23] <Guest2503> is any 1 else usning the qube effect?
[09:24] <xess> I have a really annoying issue. The screen saver I have set to default crashes x-server and when I try to use the gui It loads the screen saver. Text based way out of this?
[09:24] <chimp> Is it possible to make ubuntu use a usb stick as its swap partition, im sick of hearing this crappy laptop thrash the harddrive
[09:25] <mojo> xess:  figure out what the screen saver program is and where it's config lives... text file or gconf.  gconf has text and gui edit tools avail
[09:25] <mojo> xess:  meaning the screensaver runner,  not the screensaver itself
[09:25] <ActionParsnip> yo yo yo
[09:26] <xess> The screen saver that starts up when I become ideal.
[09:26] <moncojhr> xess: you cant change to another screensaver that doesnt crash?
[09:26] <g33k_gir1> my bf did something to my ubuntu machine a while back to make it boot into the 18 kernel, because virtualbox wasn't available for the 19 kernel at the time. now that it is available, what do I change to boot into the 19 now?
[09:27] <ActionParsnip> why not just turn the monitor off...power saver
[09:27] <xess> When I load the Gui tool it plays a thumb nail of said screen saver.
[09:27] <Flannel> g33k_gir1: /boot/grub/menu.lst most likely.
[09:27] <GamingX> ActionParsnip: Hey, you mind helping me out?
[09:27] <Flannel> g33k_gir1: If you have the 19 kernel installed, then the menu.lst would be what to edit.
[09:27] <xess> thumb nail crashes it too.
[09:27] <ActionParsnip> g33k_gir1: gksu gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst and edit the default to point to whichever kernel you wanna boot
[09:27] <ActionParsnip> GamingX: sup
[09:28] <g33k_gir1> awesome, thanks guys
[09:28] <ActionParsnip> g33k_gir1: theres a .21 kernel out now
[09:28] <GamingX> I am having a problem installing Ubuntu 8.04, I keep getting redirected to an 'initramfs' prompt, how do I solve it?
[09:28] <mojo> xess:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gnome-screensaver
[09:28] <g33k_gir1> ActionParsnip: I'm still using 19 because the 20 version of virtualbox breaks...
[09:28] <ActionParsnip> g33k_gir1: ok cool
[09:29] <g33k_gir1> ActionParsnip: going to install VB 2.0 and see how that works
[09:29] <ActionParsnip> GamingX: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=587168
[09:30] <ActionParsnip> g33k_gir1: gl :)
[09:30] <mojo> xess:  http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=316654
[09:30] <ActionParsnip> very minor indeed
[09:31] <xess> mojo; and reading ensues.
[09:32] <mojo> xess:  yeah, it is interesting though i have not found your answer i BET it is gconf setting.  google gnome-screensaver and gconf
[09:33] <mojo> xess: there is their home too... http://live.gnome.org/GnomeScreensaver/
[09:33] <xess> mojo do you think I can just switch to xscreensaver and fix the issue?
[09:34] <bullgard4> What font of the Latin Script in the GNOME Character Map is the most complete (most ample) one?
[09:34] <mojo> dunno... am reading about why gnome-screensaver vs just xscreensaver just now, here (#1 on the FAQ) http://live.gnome.org/GnomeScreensaver/FrequentlyAskedQuestions
[09:34] <GamingX> ActionParsnip: Where do I enter the commands for installation like all_generic_ide?
[09:35] <xess> Found it! file:///home/xess/.gconf/apps/gnome-screensaver/%25gconf.xml
[09:35] <ActionParsnip> !find all_generic_ide
[09:36] <GamingX> ActionParsnip: I meant in the installation, where do I add it as a boot parameter?
[09:37] <ActionParsnip> GamingX: i have no idea man, sorry
[09:37] <GamingX> ActionParsnip: No problem. Lets see if anyone else has answers
[09:38] <xess> Now I need to input some a new screen saver name. What should it be?
[09:38] <roab>  How can i setup a shell for a friend of mine with port 80? :O
[09:38] <xess> Here goes nothing...
[09:38] <roab> or is it even possible?  And then, how can he connect to it?:D
[09:39] <haunted85> hi everyone, I need some help to get my old Logitech Quickcam zoom installed on Ubuntu 8.04
[09:39] <moncojhr> how do you make locate search hidden directorys?
[09:40] <haunted85> can someone please help me?

[09:40] <distcc> hi anyone can help me about broadcom wireless
[09:40] <Guest2503> when we upgrade our ubuntu will everything be deleted?
[09:40] <moncojhr> ooh nevermind forget my question...
[09:41] <Flannel> Guest2503: no
[09:41] <Guest2503> oh ok i was a little worried that it would delete everything
[09:42] <mojo> roab:  well you can sudo aptitude install openssh-server and config it to run on whatever port you want (that is availble), and config your gateway/router device to forward incoming port:80 packets to you computer's ip on the lan at port:whatever-you-used (does not HAVE to be 80, usually)
[09:42] <moncojhr> distcc: whats the problem exactly?
[09:42] <mojo> roab:  sort of a static nat
[09:42] <Guest2503> so it just upgrades the OS without deleting other stuff cuz ive spent hrs customizing my destop wouldnt want it to get deleted
[09:42] <haunted85> I need to get my old Logitech Quickcam zoom installed on Ubuntu 8.04, can someone please help me?
[09:42] <distcc> moncojhr: it is about firmware so i can`t connect to internet. i am using b43 driver  from ubuntu 8.04 official release but nothing.can u help me ?
[09:43] <mojo> moncojhr:  pass to me? </////////////# lol
[09:43] <Flannel> Guest2503: Correct, upgrades are upgrades.  You should, of course, have backups.  But you shouldn't have to use them.
[09:43] <distcc> moncojhr when i try to compile fwcuter i got error. can i download prebuild fwcuter for ubuntu ?
[09:43] <Guest2503> oh ok

[09:44] <distcc> Flannel: where can i find it? can u give me a link. ia am kinda newbie on ubuntu
[09:44] <ActionParsnip> Guest2503: each folder is a config for an app

[09:49] <patrick_> hi
[09:49] <ActionParsnip> hi patrick_
[09:49] <GamingX> ActionParsnip: I solved the problem, I just had to enter the all_generic_ide command in the boot options. Thanks to the link you gave. Even though there was no concrete answer, someones idea seems to have payed off.
[09:49] <GamingX> Installing Ubuntu right now.
[09:49] <ActionParsnip> GamingX: as long as you reach the goal its cool with me :)
[09:50] <moncojhr> can someone help me, almost randomly when i try to run new applications they hang and dont open properly, if i log out and log back in gnome doesnt start, the only solution i know is to reboot my pc...
[09:50] <ActionParsnip> moncojhr: are you fully updated?
[09:50] <moncojhr> ActionParsnip: yes
[09:50] <ActionParsnip> moncojhr: check with sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade
[09:50] <DASPRiD> hi there, i have a problem with the ubuntu installation on my laptop. everything goes fine until the step "select software and install". it says, that a part of the installation failed
[09:51] <s> hi all
[09:51] <moncojhr> ActionParsnip: 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[09:51] <ActionParsnip> sweet
[09:51] <patrick_> i just got ubututu two days ago
[09:51] <owh> DASPRiD: Are you installing off a CD?
[09:51] <patrick_> and i love it
[09:51] <ActionParsnip> moncojhr: ok id start reading logs
[09:51] <ActionParsnip> patrick_: sweet
[09:51] <DASPRiD> owh, yes, alternate cd
[09:51] <patrick_> cept for the installing program parts because thats hard
[09:51] <DASPRiD> (8.04 for sure)
[09:52] <owh> DASPRiD: Have you verified it?
[09:52] <ActionParsnip> patrick_: synaptic makes it simple
[09:52] <DASPRiD> owh, you mean the cd image?
[09:52] <owh> DASPRiD: Yes.
[09:52] <DASPRiD> owh, nope, should i do that?
[09:52] <ActionParsnip> patrick_: or sudo apt-get install <name of program>
[09:52] <patrick_> yea i just gotta get used to thing
[09:52] <moncojhr> ActionParsnip: yes, i have to wait for the problem to happen again though, although at the moment i get a single thing in my logs over and over "Sep 10 15:58:26 lx kernel: [84449.763034] uhci_hcd 0000:00:1a.1: FGR not stopped yet!"
[09:52] <Flannel> !synaptic | patrick_
[09:52] <patrick_> yea i can do the sudo stuff now
[09:52] <owh> DASPRiD: If you're having problems like you describe, that's a good first step.
[09:52] <patrick_> ohh i c
[09:53] <DASPRiD> owh, doing it right now and giving you the results in a few
[09:53] <ActionParsnip> patrick_: synaptic gives you a clicky gui you can search
[09:53] <patrick_> hmm i c
[09:54] <owh> patrick_: Just for the record, synaptic should probably not be the first tool you use, but "Add/Remove" at the bottom of the Applications menu.
[09:54] <patrick_> oh yea i messed with the add remove stuff
[09:54] <ActionParsnip> owh: same deal dude
[09:54] <owh> ActionParsnip: No, not even close. Synaptic has a much more complicated interface.
[09:54] <patrick_> but i'm getting the hang of things now
[09:54] <Nut|work> hi all, Anyone know if its possible to install a "queue system" on ubuntu ?
[09:55] <owh> Flannel: How is life with you these days?
[09:55] <owh> Nut|work: What do you mean?
[09:55] <Nut|work> I have a server used for heavy data simulation
[09:55] <ActionParsnip> owh: i thought that launched synaptic
[09:55] <owh> ActionParsnip: Not unless something changed while I wasn't looking.
[09:55] <ActionParsnip> owh: im a kde user so im unsure
[09:56] <CaveSnow> sorry to interrupt but I am no expert in irc (firts time). Is this the place to ask for help on ubuntu?
[09:56] <Flannel> owh: Howdy Howdy
[09:56] <Nut|work> It would be great if I could install a program that could queue my tasks
[09:56] <moncojhr> CaveSnow: yeah.
[09:56] <owh> Flannel: Been a little snowwwwwed under around this part of the globe, and I'm really only here to get my mind of things :)
[09:57] <snapoleon> hi
[09:57] <CaveSnow> ok, I have just installed Xubuntu on my system, the installation went smoothly.
[09:57] <Guest13679> ola
[09:57] <owh> Nut|work: What kind of tasks?
[09:57] <CaveSnow> but then, when I booted the installed system
[09:57] <sidelil> excuse me, is it possible to backup a windows installation from ubuntu with dd or tar in the same way as you would back up a linux installation?
[09:57] <oliver_> !ATI
[09:58] <joseph_cheah> where to download make, automake, gcc tools?
[09:58] <ActionParsnip1> !backup | sidelil
[09:58] <CaveSnow> the resolution was fine (I think the 1280x800 that it ought to be) but most of the fonts are enormeous so that the occupy practically the entire screen...
[09:59] <Nut|work> Owh, computational simulations. The tasks = start a program to process some data, when done, start a new process
[09:59] <DASPRiD> owh, in fact, the md5 verification failed :)
[09:59] <FloodBot1> !netsplit
[09:59] <owh> Nut|work: Write a little bash script and execute that.
[09:59] <DASPRiD> owh, in fact, the md5 verification failed :)
[09:59] <CaveSnow> what should I do?
[09:59] <owh> DASPRiD: Saw that, glad I could be of assistance :)
[10:00] <Nut|work> owh, will that know when the first process is done and when to starte then next process ?
[10:00] <DASPRiD> owh, trying to burn again and then another check :)
[10:00] <EJ> \\'elcome ßack Seeker`
[10:01] <owh> DASPRiD: Did you check the MD5 of the original .iso before you burnt it?
[10:01] <owh> DASPRiD: If you start with a corrupt file, you won't ever get a working CD :)
[10:01] <ShishKabab> Hi. A friend of mine uses Ubuntu and has an Intel ICH5 sound card. He can play audio, but Skype won't record any audio. Any tips?
[10:02] <DASPRiD> owh, oh, no bad idea :x
[10:02] <DASPRiD> owh, how ^^
[10:02] <erUSUL> !skype | ShishKabab
[10:02] <owh> DASPRiD: Using the command md5sum filename
[10:02] <moncojhr> when i open files in "search for files" they are opening in totem instead of the media player i picked, how can i dstop this?
[10:02] <owh> DASPRiD: Then compare the resulting string to the one on the web-site.
[10:03] <DASPRiD> owh, i know that one, but where do i get the md5 sum?
[10:03] <DASPRiD> ah
[10:03] <owh> :)
[10:03] <ActionParsnip1> ShishKabab: is his skype set to use the correct audio device and can he record with other apps?
[10:03] <CaveSnow> somebody, ideas?
[10:04] <ShishKabab> It's set to the default device
[10:04] <owh> CaveSnow: Ideas for what?
[10:04] <CaveSnow> ok, I have just installed Xubuntu on my system, the installation went smoothly.
[10:04] <CaveSnow> But then, when I booted the installed system the resolution was fine (I think
[10:04] <CaveSnow> the 1280x800 that it ought to be) but most of the fonts are enormeous so that
[10:04] <CaveSnow> the occupy practically the entire screen... And thus I cannot actually use any part of the gui because the menus are too big and I cannot see anything
[10:04] <FloodBot1> CaveSnow: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[10:05] <owh> CaveSnow: What makes you say that the resolution is fine?
[10:06] <owh> CaveSnow: How did you check?
