[05:50] <LjL> matthew_: no. 1) you need to specify a device (like /dev/something) not a mountpoint (like /media/something)   2) you need to specify some more option, such as at least the filesystem type
[05:50] <Shafto> maxxism, Why over complicate and make from scratcg?
[05:50] <Drk_Guy> I connect my cellphonr to Ubuntu and it is treated like anormal Usb drive and it is auto-mounted
[05:50] <variant> matthew_: you will have to unmount it if you want to reformat it
[05:50] <Yo_Daddeh> mc44: I like to gamble abit with it I just wanted to hear what others thought of it so far
[05:50] <Drk_Guy> (That's my tgt)
[05:50] <matthew_> how do i know which device it is in?
[05:51] <Yo_Daddeh> mc44: user feedback can be your friend
[05:51] <maxxism> Shafto I havent find pre made binaries of them.
[05:51] <Shafto> maxxism, Follow http://albertomilone.com/instructions.html
[05:51] <Drk_Guy> The icon of the drive has an Usb icon
[05:51] <variant> matthew_: you know what device you want to format right?
[05:51] <Shafto> maxxism, That has all the latest drivers in a repo,
[05:51] <LjL> matthew_: if right now it's mounted, type "mount" and you'll see. you don't want to format a device *while* it's mounted, though, for sure.
[05:51] <variant> matthew_: is it a new drive or something?
[05:51] <maxxism> Shafto but albertomilone.com arent the newest.
[05:51] <usher_> I'm having some strange problem, it's happened yesterday and the day before and it will probably happen again in a bit - my monitor will go into off-mode.. while I'm using the PC? is that a Feisty bug ?
[05:51] <Shafto> maxxism, 9755?
[05:51] <matthew_> variant:  it is mounted automatically.  i don't know what device it is in.
[05:51] <mc44> usher_: #ubuntu+! for feisty support
[05:51] <Shafto> maxxism, So there not never noticed that before
[05:52] <mc44> usher_: #ubuntu+1 rather
[05:52] <variant> matthew_: as LjL just said, type mount will tell you the device
[05:52] <Shafto> maxxism, So pal me being stupid!
[05:52] <maxxism> Shafto they werent the other day when I tried.  they were 9000 series but not
[05:52] <matthew_> think i found out though thanks
[05:52] <LjL> maxxism: well, surely the very newest drivers have such astonishing features that it's worth building every bit of them manually. seriously, they just support some more cards..
[05:52] <usher_> mc44: Thank you
[05:52] <Woody_> hello, can I install Windows Live Messenger on Ubuntu?
[05:52] <variant> usher_: if it is, then you should ask in #ubuntu+1
[05:52] <variant> usher_: that is the feisty support channel
[05:52] <LjL> Woody_: no, you can use the MSN network though, via Gaim or AMSN (or others)
[05:52] <maxxism> LjL  I found the 9755 drivers work better with Beryl
[05:52] <Yo_Daddeh> woody_: inquire about wine
[05:52] <usher_> variant: Cool, thanks man
[05:52] <variant> Woody_: perhaps under wine, check the wineappdb
[05:52] <Shafto> maxxism, Yeah LjL is right the ones from there worked perfectly for me in everything
[05:52] <LjL> !msn > Woody_    (Woody_, see the private message from Ubotu)
[05:53] <Shafto> Woody_, No
[05:53] <Raiders32> matthew_:  if the drive is mounted type 'cat /etc/mtab'  will also tell what is mounted on your system
[05:53] <Shafto> Woody_, Not even under wine i dont think
[05:53] <Woody_> thanks a lot people! you are amazing!
[05:53] <Drk_Guy> I use Opensource software
[05:53] <Drk_Guy> I love OpenSourcde
[05:53] <flubber> when is the expected date for releasing 7.04 stable?
[05:53] <LjL> !offtopic
[05:53] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[05:53] <LjL> !feisty > flubber    (flubber, see the private message from Ubotu)
[05:53] <Woody_> How many Viruses is there on Ubuntu? is there any?
[05:53] <mc44> flubber: see #ubuntu+1
[05:54] <Tom47> flubber april 19
[05:54] <LjL> Woody_: very few in the wild
[05:54] <variant> Woody_: none that you should worry about
[05:54] <Drk_Guy> Ubuntu is not that protected, that's why hackers are not that interested in making viruses for
[05:54] <Yo_Daddeh> !feisty > Yo_Daddeh
[05:54] <Shafto> Woody_, http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=5264 is proof that WLM doesnt work, why not ry gaim or amsn?
[05:54] <LjL> !virus > Woody_    (Woody_, see the private message from Ubotu)
[05:54] <Drk_Guy> it
[05:54] <Woody_> LjL: do i have to get an antivirus? or no need?
[05:54] <mc44> Drk_Guy: are you trying to troll?
[05:54] <Drk_Guy> No need Woody
[05:54] <LjL> Woody_, i could bet that most people here aren't using an antvirus. i'm not.
[05:54] <Shafto> Woody_, Ermm i dont think most people here will have one
[05:54] <variant> Woody_: there are other attack vectors that affect gnu/linux and other operating systems other than viruses
[05:54] <Drk_Guy> Trolling, that's not me man
[05:55] <maxxism> no antivirus here.
[05:55] <Appears> I dont have one
[05:55] <Drk_Guy> I'm just trying to help out
[05:55] <Woody_> cool
[05:55] <shooters> no antivirus either...
[05:55] <Shafto> Firewall maybe Woody_ but thats up to you
[05:55] <lufis> Woody_: There's no need for antivirus software for linux, unless you're transferring files to a Windows system that you don't want to get infected
[05:55] <variant> Woody_: you don't. a firewall is reccomended though. try firestarter
[05:55] <maxxism> dont even have one on my mac.
[05:55] <Drk_Guy> Linux saves so much resources
[05:55] <Spee_Der> Good afternoon Drk_Guy.
[05:55] <Drk_Guy> Hy
[05:55] <Yggdrasil> howdy, can somone point me in the right direction for a good how to install ubuntu on an old imac ?
[05:55] <Drk_Guy> Spee_Der
[05:55] <Shafto> Woody_, http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=5264 is proof that WLM doesnt work, why not try gaim or amsn?
[05:55] <Shafto> Woody_, Incase you didnt see that :)
[05:56] <Woody_> Shafto:  I didn't like GAIM ill try aMSN. thanks a lot
[05:56] <Appears> An the box stood install windows vista or better..so I installed Linux :)
[05:56] <Shafto> Woody_, tbh i hate amsn :P
[05:56] <Drk_Guy> Variant, is FireStarter the Linux native firewall
[05:56] <Woody_> Shafto:  lol
[05:56] <Drk_Guy> aMSN is OpenSource
[05:56] <Shafto> Woody_, Cant really rcommend much else
[05:56] <variant> Drk_Guy: no.. no "the" it is an interface to a popular one though.. called iptables
[05:56] <Drk_Guy> But it is C***
[05:56] <Shafto> Woody_, Maybe konverstaion i think, the kde one
[05:56] <Drk_Guy> Ty Variant
[05:56] <Woody_> why doesn't ubuntu automatically installs the nVidia drivers? why should i do them manually?
[05:57] <Shafto> Woody_, Or kopete
[05:57] <Shafto> Woody_, Cant remeber
[05:57] <Drk_Guy> Nvidia has legacy drivers
[05:57] <variant> Woody_: because it is proprietry software
[05:57] <Drk_Guy> For Ubuntu
[05:57] <Woody_> ah okay thanks Shafto
[05:57] <salty> how do i add jackd to my realtime group...command-line?
[05:57] <thingy> If you have a copy of Windows, then use something like vmware player/server and setup a guest machine on which you can use stuff like live messenger/icq/yahoo messenger et al. So much simpler than having to fuss around with Wine.
[05:57] <Shafto> Woody_, It installs open source ones
[05:57] <Shafto> Woody_, Its very easy to add repos to get the official drivers
[05:57] <msikma> Can someone tell me how to make an image file of a cdrom? I tried using dd if=/dev/cdrom of=~/mydisk.bin, but that didn't work.
[05:57] <Vodalu1> morning
[05:57] <LjL> Woody_: it does install *some* NVidia drivers automatically. specifically, it installs the open source ones. unfortunately, for 3D you need other ones, i.e. the proprietary ones from Nvidia.
[05:57] <Woody_> Shafto: yes, but the effects do not work with the opensource drivers i think
[05:58] <variant> LjL: not for too much longer hopefully :)
[05:58] <Shafto> Woody_, So then you install the official ones, not hard :)
[05:58] <Vodalu1> Anyone know if the setup of logitech mice is any different in 7.04
[05:58] <Drk_Guy> Go to nvodoa.com
[05:58] <Drk_Guy> Typo here
[05:58] <usher_> LjL: I think I'm having video card issues - how do I get the Official NVIDIA drivers?
[05:58] <Drk_Guy> It is nvidia.com
[05:58] <Shafto> Woody_, you running ubuntu now?
[05:58] <Drk_Guy> there are drivers for Linux there
[05:58] <LjL> Woody_: there are a couple of issue with supplying them as default: for instance, they can only be fixed by Nvidia if something is found wrong with them, the Ubuntu developers can't do anything.
[05:58] <Lunar_Lamp> !schedule
[05:58] <ubotu> Ubuntu releases a new version every 6 months. Each version is supported for 18 months to 5 years. More info at http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/releases & http://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases
[05:58] <Woody_> Shafto: no, i didnt install it yet
[05:58] <variant> Drk_Guy: that is not the reccomeneded way to install them on ubuntu
[05:58] <LjL> usher_: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx ; sudo nvidia-xconfig enable  IIRC
[05:59] <Woody_> I am hating Windows more and more
[05:59] <LjL> !nvidia > usher_    (usher_, see the private message from Ubotu)
[05:59] <Tom47> Vodalu1: try #unbuntu+1
[05:59] <Shafto> Woody_, I like http://albertomilone.com/instructions.html even though they arent the complete latest
[05:59] <Drk_Guy> Then wich one is?
[05:59] <Vodalu1> thanks
[05:59] <Jinxed> where do i put vlc skin files?
[05:59] <Shafto> Woody_, But doesnt matter they will run everything you ever
[05:59] <salty> how do i add jackd to my realtime group...command-line?
[05:59] <Cupid> Talking about nvidia drivers, How can I remove nvidia-glx?
[05:59] <Shafto> Woody_, But doesnt matter they will run everything you ever need*
[05:59] <Cupid> It tells me that It would have to change a libGL file
[05:59] <Woody_> okay
[05:59] <Cupid> And that its not allowed too
[05:59] <Drk_Guy> I need to restart Ffox, Ciao!!!!
[05:59] <variant> Drk_Guy:http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_install_Graphics_Driver_.28NVIDIA.29
[06:00] <Spee_Der> Cupid, try using symatic to fix things for your setup.
[06:00] <matthew_> is it possible to give my user permission to unmount only certain drives?
[06:00] <Spee_Der> Cupid, synaptic that is.
[06:00] <Woody_> Beryl is AWESOME! for Vista to run Beryl it might need a Pentium 10
[06:00] <variant> matthew_: yes, you can set "users" in fstab for that particular drive
[06:00] <Cupid> Spee_Der synaptic gets the same error :(
[06:00] <Enselic`> I have an ftp server running, I can connect to it with 'ftp <IP_ADDRESS>', but the connectino is refused when I try with fFTP or FileZilla. Anyone know why?
[06:01] <Shafto> Woody_, Well linux is the only os to provide full 3d desktop thanks to beryl
[06:01] <Shafto> Woody_, Others only run 2.5
[06:01] <Spee_Der> Cupid, in synaptic, there is an option to fix broken packages and it works well.
[06:01] <Woody_> Shafto: yes sir
[06:02] <Shafto> Woody_, Thanks to some magazine i read that boasted about ubuntu ALOT!
[06:02] <Woody_> Why is Linux so #@$%#$% FASTTT!!!!!
[06:02] <Xanthus35> Can someone help me with ubuntu 7.04 and grub
[06:02] <Shafto> Woody_, Just is? :S
[06:02] <Shafto> :P
[06:03] <Spee_Der> Cupid, in synaptic click on Edit in the top menu and then fix broken packages.
[06:03] <Cupid> Spee_Der I'll try that...
[06:03] <Xanthus35> Can someone help me with ubuntu 7.04 and grub
[06:03] <Shafto> Xanthus35, Jsut say the problem exactly
[06:04] <cables> !repeat | Xanthus35
[06:04] <ubotu> Xanthus35: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[06:04] <Yggdrasil> howdy, can somone point me in the right direction for a good how to install ubuntu on an old imac purple?
[06:04] <cables> Xanthus35: you should ask in #ubuntu+1
[06:04] <meanfish> I think the primaries reasons for it performing well are:  1.)  libraries are modular and thus programs tend not to do double work and 2.) people who write code for open source applications don't want to look like poseurs and try to do a good job.
[06:04] <vinces1979>  Xanthus35: what are you trying to do with grub?
[06:04] <Xanthus35> ok when I installed 7.04 it said grub installed but when I reboot it directly into xp and grub does not come up
[06:05] <Tom47> Xanthus35: try #ubuntu+1
[06:06] <pokoko> why isn't there #ubuntu+n ?
[06:06] <pancho> plop
[06:06] <pancho> huh ?
[06:06] <Shafto> ubuntu+n?
[06:06] <pancho> what`s that ?
[06:06] <mc44> pokoko: because there is only ever one development release
[06:06] <ompaul> there is +1
[06:06] <Tom47> its ubuntu for chickens
[06:06] <pancho> oh
[06:06] <pokoko> Shafto, yeah the "never will release" value of n.
[06:06] <pancho> i see
[06:06] <pokoko> that should take care of all the wishlist etc...
[06:06] <pancho> oh my
[06:07] <sontek> Hey, i'm having trouble with grub, I have 6 disks (hda, hdb, hdc, hdd, sda, sdb)    sda is my OS disk (boot disk)  and after a clean installation its giving my grub 15 error (which means can't find files)  so I boot up into the livecd and when I do grub prompt it shows sda is hd3    but when I remove menu.lst and boot up (to get grub.conf on boot) it thinks sda is hd0.
[06:07] <pancho> XD
[06:07] <sontek> anyone know whats going on? :P
[06:07] <pancho> when are they gonna release the studios version ?
[06:07] <pokoko> and then put the wishlist etc.. in the release n-1
[06:07] <pokoko> could also be bug fix, rfe etc..
[06:07] <granger> anybody know how to get the ndiswrapper to actually work on 6.10?
[06:08] <Woody_> how much space is needed to install Ubuntu?
[06:08] <Woody_> 7.04
[06:08] <meanfish> granger:  I had to install an updated kernel module to get it working after upgrading to edgy, I think.
[06:08] <morbidone> i think it was 700mb woody_
[06:08] <salty> woody...it depends on the type of install
[06:08] <sontek> Woody_: I'm using up 7.8gb with 7.04 and thats with every application you'll ever use installed :P
[06:08] <pancho> i actuallt installed ubuntu on my 4gb partition
[06:08] <morbidone> for the upgrade
[06:08] <pancho> i actually installed ubuntu on my 4gb partition
[06:08] <ompaul> Woody_, ehh try 3gigs and a half for ram -
[06:08] <Woody_> wow amazing
[06:09] <Woody_> i have like 9GB of space
[06:09] <Woody_> im going to make it a partition and install Ubuntu on it. is that ok?
[06:09] <ompaul> Woody_, but frankly I give hundreds of gigs to isntalls
[06:09] <TheFettMan> I know this is #ubuntu, but ##windows guys are talking about cars.. :\  can anyone possibly help me w/ chdsk errors?
[06:09] <pancho> i will soon get a better HD
[06:09] <salty> i installed the command-line version and use fluxbox on 300mb
[06:09] <meanfish> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ndiswrapper/+bug/59983
[06:09] <meanfish> for information on ndiswrapper in edgy
[06:09] <mc44> TheFettMan: no windows support in here sorry
[06:09] <ompaul> Woody_, better to be dangerously dedicated to it and learn lots
[06:09] <Woody_> i am getting an external hard drive this week, maybe ill wait
[06:09] <jsl3> hi2all
[06:09] <pancho> lolz
[06:10] <pancho> ill get an internaql
[06:10] <Woody_> because im using a laptop
[06:10] <Spee_Der> Good afternoon jsl3
[06:10] <TheFettMan> mc44: where can I go the ##windows is incompetent.. and I think the error might have to do w/ ntfsclone or dd
[06:10] <jsl3> Spee_Der, helo
[06:10] <salty> laptop here too Woody
[06:10] <pancho> can you install it on an external HD ??
[06:10] <sontek> TheFettMan: efnet #windows
[06:10] <salty> yes pancho
[06:10] <Woody_> yes we can pancho
[06:11] <pancho> nice
[06:11] <Woody_> ill make my external harddisk dedicated to UBUNTU
[06:11] <Woody_> i can't stop using Windows, I have lots of softwares that don't work on Linux
[06:11] <pancho> i better do that
[06:11] <pancho> hehe
[06:11] <gnomie> i need >= 15 GB for ubuntu. i try kde, gnome, xfce parallel. my dist-upgrade also need 2,6 GB!
[06:11] <Spee_Der> I wish I could get to the bios in the laptop so I can turn on the HD to install Linux.
[06:11] <jsl3> Woody_, for example..?
[06:11] <Woody_> jsl3: autocad, maya
[06:12] <Spee_Der> The laptop is the Compaq model 4160t. No F-10 access to the bios.
[06:12] <Shafto> Woody_, You sure you tried winehq.com
[06:12] <jsl3> maya for linux is available.. afaik
[06:12] <TheFettMan> pshh whatever.. it probably has to do w/ dd or ntfsclone anyway
[06:12] <Woody_> Shafto:  what does that do?
[06:12] <meanfish> pfft.  use blender. :P
[06:12] <Shafto> Woody_, Basically runs windows apps on linux
[06:12] <Woody_> oh really!
[06:12] <Tom47> Woody_: a useful approach is to put windows in a vm and then you can access it (ms) withot rebooting
[06:13] <cables> Am I the only one who thinks OpenOffice needs a new UI? After trying AbiWord, I realized just how horrible OO's UI was, especially the options menu.
[06:13] <meanfish> Tom__:  hardware rendering doesn't work well in vm, which wouldn't work for autocad and maya.
[06:13] <Woody_> Tom47: please no abbreviations, im a n00b in Linux
[06:13] <Shafto> Woody_, or do as Tom47 said, however if they run fine on wine thats usually quite abit faster
[06:13] <Shafto> Woody_, Virtual machine
[06:13] <Woody_> ah okay
[06:13] <jsl3> and what about Varicad 2007(linux) instead of autocad (win32)?
[06:14] <Shafto> Woody_, For most windows apps there is an opensource alternative for linux
[06:14] <Woody_> i SHOULD use autocad for university purposes
[06:14] <mc44> cables: you know this is the wrong channel for that question
[06:14] <meanfish> Basically, when assessing needs for linux...look for a parallel program rather than compatibility for the same program.
[06:14] <jsl3> Woody_, poor one..
[06:14] <Tom47> Woody_ there are a lot of vitual machines about ... i personally use the vmware server free edition
[06:14] <pancho> could someone help me with an issue?
[06:14] <Woody_> Shafto: can you give me the list of the alternatives?
[06:14] <meanfish> i.e. don't look for winamp, look for a replacement (xmms, bmp)
[06:14] <pancho> i can not install tarballs
[06:14] <pancho> for some reason
[06:14] <Shafto> Woody_, Just ask, someone on here will know
[06:15] <jsl3> meanfish, mpd is the best =)
[06:15] <cables> mc44: sorry, nothing I can say to that.
[06:15] <bulmer> pancho:  you dont install tarballs directly
[06:15] <Shafto> Woody_, I mean look you mentioned autocad and already people chuck up alternatives for you
[06:15] <pancho> then how ?
[06:15] <Woody_> visual basic?
[06:15] <meanfish> tarballs are basically like zip files.
[06:15] <cables> pancho: how are you trying to install them? You might need to either compile or just run the program from the tarball.
[06:15] <Shafto> Woody_, I actually think that runs under wine fine
[06:15] <Woody_> ah okay
[06:15] <maxxism> wow this driver problem is really pissing me off.  I tried to revert back to the albertmilone nvidia drivers.   no such luck.
[06:15] <pancho> i wasw trying to compile
[06:15] <pancho> *was
[06:15] <cables> !compile | pancho
[06:15] <ubotu> pancho: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[06:15] <mc44> !ohmy | maxxism
[06:16] <ubotu> maxxism: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[06:16] <Woody_> i have a question also, whenever i want to download+install a software i should use the terminal and say:   sudo apt-get install blablabla?
[06:16] <bulmer> pancho which one? look for the targets in the  Makefile
[06:16] <Shafto> Woody_, Depends what version we are talking about though
[06:16] <POVaddct> pancho: you should check first if you can install the software as a package. installing from a tarball is generally not the best choice.
[06:16] <maxxism> since when is "pi$$ing" a bad word
[06:16] <pancho> yea but there are some thing i need, that only are available in tarballs
[06:16] <Woody_> Ubuntu 7.04
[06:16] <Shafto> Woody_, I mean of VB
[06:16] <jsl3> meanfish, mpd + some gui tool, sonata for example
[06:16] <Woody_> ah okay
[06:17] <pancho> i understand
[06:17] <mc44> maxxism: would you say it to your grandmother? :p
[06:17] <meanfish> roger that.
[06:17] <maxxism> mc44 yes.  and she would say it too. haha
[06:17] <mc44> maxxism: no hope for you then :)
[06:17] <maxxism> <-----  imbred redneck.
[06:17] <pancho> how can i install boot screens ?

[06:17] <cables> !usplash | pancho
[06:17] <ompaul> maxxism, well be nice to the rest of the people then then ;-)
[06:17] <ubotu> pancho: To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork
[06:18] <pancho> where can i get upsplash ?

[06:18] <Woody_> thanks sahfto
[06:18] <Shafto> Woody_, Np
[06:19] <Svish> is it possible to.. "copy", file permissions from one folder to another?
[06:19] <pancho> nice
[06:19] <cables> Svish: not that I know of, but it's pretty easy to view and change permissions on a folder.
[06:19] <cables> !permissions | Svish
[06:19] <ubotu> Svish: The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[06:20] <Shafto> Woody_, joi what are your system specs?
[06:20] <msikma> Hi everybody. I'm wondering why I can't seem to use 1680x1050 even though I configured it in xorg.conf.
[06:20] <Svish> cables: how do you do that? i know of the chown thingy, but not sure how to use it..
[06:20] <pancho> can i install beryl with my current SIS card ?
[06:20] <Woody_> BenQ, 2.4GHZ, 512MB DDR2 RAM, 80GB HDD, geForce 4 32MB (its kinda old)
[06:20] <cables> !man | Svish
[06:20] <msikma> I get an error that the hsync is out of range, but 1680x1050 is my native resolution.
[06:20] <ubotu> Svish: The "man" command brings up the Linux manual pages for the command you're interested in. Try "man intro" at the command line, or see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicCommands
[06:21] <Shafto> Woody_, Ok :)
[06:21] <campione> ciao
[06:21] <Woody_> Shafto: does the desktop effects work with my system?
[06:21] <granger> is there any way to get ndiswrapper on 6.10?
[06:21] <Shafto> Woody_, Id use beryl over built in compiz
[06:22] <cables> !ndiswrapper | granger
[06:22] <meanfish> I got bored of beryl/compiz.
[06:22] <pancho> i better get a geforce
[06:22] <ubotu> granger: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[06:22] <jsl3> ok, gb 2 all
[06:22] <Woody_> Shafto: Fiesty Fawn doesn't come with beryl preinstalled?
[06:22] <pancho> is there a geforce compatible with 4x agp ?
[06:22] <Shafto> Woody_, It comes with compiz, when i tried that it messed up all other 3d apps
[06:22] <FairWitns> Can anyone assist with a wired ethernet problem? I have the module up, but ifconfig doesn't appear to be associated with it...
[06:22] <gradin> anybody know why i'm getting gpg key errors on apt-get updates?
[06:22] <Shafto> Woody_, And that was on a 6600
[06:22] <Spee_Der_> phew.
[06:23] <meanfish> yeah...beryl/compiz really aren't ready for default-install prime time yet.
[06:23] <Shafto> meanfish, I agree
[06:23] <cables> meanfish: there's a warning about experimental software when you try to enable it.
[06:23] <meanfish> heheh
[06:23] <Shafto> oh well :P
[06:24] <meanfish> yeah.  thats so you can't get too angry when it kills your xserver.
[06:24] <meanfish> and you have to log back in.
[06:24] <pancho> how can i install a lan network ?
[06:24] <FairWitns> ifconfig eth0: "eth0: error fetching interface information: Device not found"
[06:24] <pancho> my friend wants me to install him ubuntu
[06:24] <Spee_Der_> Cupid, I had to re-boot. Did the synaptic package help with your problem please ?
[06:24] <Woody_> Shafto: so buttom line.... can i see the effects on my system or not?
[06:24] <pancho> and he has that type of newtork
[06:24] <bulmer> FairWitns: is there an entry in /etc/network/intefaces ?
[06:24] <Shafto> Woody_, Sure they work on built in intel they should have no problem on yours
[06:25] <meanfish> Woody_:  with an nvidia card, there's no reason you can't use beryl or compiz.
[06:25] <Woody_> meanfish: Shafto :  but it is only 32MB
[06:25] <d00d> Can someone help me with my xserver
[06:25] <FairWitns> bulmer: "auto eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp"
[06:25] <Shafto> Woody_, Id always recommend beryl over the preinstalled compiz though, think meanfish will agree
[06:25] <Shafto> Woody_, My built in intel runs at 8mb and can probably handle them :P
[06:25] <Shafto> d00d, Whats up with it?
[06:25] <Woody_> lol really Shafto
[06:25] <FairWitns> bulmer: I manually loaded the module (forcedeth) and I think I'm somehow missing the association that eth0 is forcedeth.
[06:25] <Woody_> thanks a lot man!!!!!!
[06:25] <meanfish> Beryl is much better.
[06:25] <Woody_> AMAZINGGGG
[06:26] <Shafto> Woody_, Hehe
[06:26] <Woody_> Ubuntu 7.04 is a good competitor against Windows Vista i believe, isnt it?
[06:26] <d00d> the nvidia kernel module has the version 1.07174 but this x module has the version 1.0-9755
[06:26] <d00d> i dont know what to do
[06:26] <meanfish> It's not a matter of being super-ultra-3d-awesome.  I mean, it's not doom3.  It's simply rendering your desktop using hardware rendering.
[06:26] <Shafto> Woody_, 6.10 is as good if not better
[06:27] <Woody_> Shafto: the Ubuntu 7.04 comes with beryl already installed? or i have to install it manually? what about compiz?
[06:27] <zootm> Woody_: Vista has good points and bad points, so does Ubuntu
[06:27] <Shafto> Woody_, Comes with compiz, but id leave it disabled and donwload beryl
[06:27] <zootm> it's kinda hard to make a direct call on which is "better"
[06:27] <meanfish> I'd argue that anything 6.06 or higher can give Vista a run for its money as an OS.
[06:27] <guerby> hi, is there any repo with olsrd?
[06:27] <killux> im doing a spanish project for school, in openoffice writer I changed the languages from english to Spanish(spain) but will the auto spell checker still work?
[06:27] <Shafto> zootm, Yeah, windows mainly has the software market
[06:28] <Woody_> I didn't see anything interesting in Vista
[06:28] <meanfish> Shafto:  Correction - windows mainly has the commercial software market. :)
[06:28] <Shafto> zootm, But im not gonna knock wine which will get there someday
[06:28] <bulmer> FairWitns: what do you show in /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf
[06:28] <Woody_> you need a supercomputer to run Vista
[06:28] <Shafto> meanfish, ubuntu rocks on the opensource :P
[06:28] <zootm> well, i mean, as much as it's tempting to make fun of Microsoft, Vista's not a bad OS by any means
[06:28] <meanfish> exactly. :)
[06:28] <Shafto> zootm, Just eats ram for the fun of it
[06:28] <mc44> Woody_: vista is offtopic for here :)
[06:28] <zootm> ha
[06:28] <Woody_> lol
[06:28] <Woody_> okay :D
[06:29] <FairWitns> bulmer: "all  default  lo  wlan0"
[06:29] <zootm> perhaps, but everyone has like a billion gigs of RAM now anyway ;)
[06:29] <Cupid> Spee_Der: I was AFK - Yeah, Thanks! :D Its all sorted
[06:29] <Woody_> in other words, Vista is banned here
[06:29] <FairWitns> That looks like it's missing something...
[06:29] <Shafto> mc44 = channel op?
[06:29] <mc44> Woody_: close enough :)
[06:29] <zootm> i can't criticise things for memory use, I'm a Java programmer ;)
[06:29] <bulmer> FairWitns: right, it seems missing your eth0
[06:29] <LjL> Woody_: just like everything that isn't an ubuntu support question/answer
[06:29] <Woody_> LjL: yeah thats true
[06:29] <granger> NDISWRAPPER?
[06:29] <zootm> Woody_: I don't think this would be the place to be for an unbiased assessment of Vista, in any case
[06:29] <Shafto> zootm, Haha no your cant!
[06:29] <msikma> Is anybody able to help me with getting a resolution to work?
[06:29] <pancho> lolz
[06:30] <meanfish> granger:  what happens when you perform "sudo modprobe ndiswrapper" in terminal?
[06:30] <killux> anyone? openoffice's irc is dead
[06:30] <FairWitns> bulmer: Hrm.  I'm not certain as to what is in those dirs....looking now.  Maybe just copy wlan0 (which works) and start hacking?
[06:30] <clearzen> Does anyone know what port rsync connects to by default on the recieving computer? Is it 186?
[06:30] <pancho> as far as i know , this is an ubuntu chat
[06:30] <msikma> My native res is 1680x1050. I'm running 6.10 virtualized, but cannot go higher than 1024x768.
[06:30] <meanfish> my tv runs in 800x600.  :D
[06:30] <granger> nothing
[06:30] <Shafto> msikma, You added it in xorg?
[06:30] <killux> i know i tried asking my question in openoffice's chat
[06:30] <bulmer> FairWitns: you can try yes..i suppose each nic card physical or virtual is represented there
[06:30] <msikma> Shafto: yes. My error log states that hsync is out of range for 1680x1050.
[06:30] <killux> nobody answered in like 10 minutes
[06:31] <Woody_> Shafto: can i PM you?
[06:31] <Shafto> Woody_, If your registered go for it
[06:31] <Woody_> ah im not :(
[06:31] <d00d> Shafto, u ge that ?
[06:32] <FairWitns> bulmer: It's a good start I suppose.  Wonder why it's not there...
[06:32] <granger> how do i do that
[06:32] <Shafto> !register | Woody_
[06:32] <ubotu> Woody_: Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[06:32] <bulmer> FairWitns: use network manager perhaps to get it there
[06:32] <Shafto> Is it actually possible to run a VM at the exact same res as your native?!
[06:33] <deadeye> Can anyone tell me if I need to install some mp3 codec for rhythmbox manualy, or should it be there by default?
[06:33] <schizm> ubuntu sure makes it hard to setup a vncserver properly
[06:33] <mc44> Shafto: thats the point
[06:33] <schizm> man, threads and threads on people having pain :)
[06:33] <FairWitns> bulmer: Using ubuntu, I don't see the card anywhere in the GUI menus..
[06:33] <LjL> !mp3 > deadeye    (deadeye, see the private message from Ubotu) | the latter
[06:33] <LjL> deadeye: ... i mean the former
[06:33] <bXi> schizm: you should try nxclient/nxserver instead of vnc
[06:33] <schizm> bxi: ive seen that mentioned, haven't looked into it
[06:33] <bulmer> FairWitns: then maybe it needs to be re-installed
[06:33] <bXi> schizm: it beats the crap out of vnc
[06:34] <schizm> im mostly looking into this so I can allow headless use of an ubuntu box from an XP box
[06:34] <granger> how do i get the working ndiswrapper?
[06:34] <schizm> ill investigate, thanks
[06:34] <LjL> !ndiswrapper > granger    (granger, see the private message from Ubotu)
[06:34] <carpola> if i wanted to add something to my sound module, how would i open up the snd-hda-intel file?
[06:34] <deepsa> hey all madar chod's how are you
[06:34] <bXi> schizm: i do the same for my development server
[06:34] <FairWitns> bulmer: That's going to be a last resort.  This is a combined mythtv server / desktop  which is running fine, and took a lot to get working nicely.
[06:35] <pancho> how can i install gaim themes ?=
[06:35] <pancho> ?
[06:35] <erfan> who can help me for delet icons menu items?
[06:35] <mc44> carpola: what are you trying to add?
[06:35] <zootm> pancho: smily themes?
[06:35] <carpola> alsa-base
[06:35] <bulmer> FairWitns: i meant re-installed just the nic card and the corresponding driver
[06:35] <schizm> bXi:  thanks a bunch, looking into it now
[06:35] <meanfish> I think you can open the smileys dialog and drag-and-drop the package in.
[06:35] <carpola> because my left speaker works and my right does not
[06:35] <zootm> should that be "smiley"?
[06:35] <pancho> nope
[06:35] <pancho> icon themes
[06:35] <nadi> quit
[06:35] <zootm> hmm
[06:35] <zootm> i didn't know you got icon themes
[06:35] <FairWitns> bulmer: Aahhh.  How so?
[06:35] <zootm> feeling silly now
[06:36] <meanfish> I didn't know there were icon themes for gaim.
[06:36] <pancho> those visual styles
[06:36] <meanfish> lol
[06:36] <Shafto> pancho, Try looking on the gaim website?
[06:36] <granger> how do i download ndiswrapper?
[06:36] <pancho> ....ok
[06:36] <Shafto> sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper?
[06:36] <bulmer> FairWitns: umm shutdown and remove the nic card, maybe on bios you need some tweaking too..then reboot?
[06:36] <meanfish> sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper-utils
[06:36] <schizm> currently upgrading my 6.10 to 7.04 beta so can't grab nxserver right now heh

[06:36] <meanfish> nxserver is sexy.
[06:36] <LjL> ddoT: ?
[06:37] <ddoT> he asked the same question again..   I bet I have it disabled in the BIOS.  It would be stupid, but just like me....
[06:37] <LjL> ddoT: oh
[06:37] <Shafto> onosendai, And you've installed xfce over it/

[06:39] <meanfish> what's your xserver doing?

[06:41] <big_bang14> LjL, how do i boot without a xorg, it messes it all up

[06:43] <meanfish> the installer has a built-in configuration.
[06:43] <joonr> I am trying to install third-party drivers for my Geforce 6800, but the installer does not want me to do so from within X Windows. Can I boot ubuntu without GNOME, or is there some other way to install the driver?

[06:44] <schizm> bxi: basically what I'm looking for is to have a client good enough that it feels as though I'm at the ubuntu box, ie. full screen X11 at native res, will NX deliver that do you think?
[06:44] <Shafto> joonr, Try this..http://albertomilone.com/instructions.html
[06:44] <meanfish> joonr: do the following - 1.)  hit ctrl-alt-f5 and login, 2.) perform "sudo pkill gdm", 3.) run the installer

[06:50] <Shafto> DarkSpirit, Dont you have to drag it out abit, to make it biggeR?
[06:51] <POVaddct> DarkSpirit: i'm not sure but i think xchat-gnome is crippled. try using xchat (non gnome version) instead.

[06:51] <chowmeined> Hello, I am trying to get my Canon Pixma IP3000 printer running under ubuntu, I looked on the OpenPrinting database and it says it works perfectly but I have never gotten it to work properly with any of the drivers I have tried. I tried all the variants of BJC-7000 but they are all washed out and muddy with photos, and documents get strangely resized and go off the edges of the page.. I have tried the drivers from Canon Japan, the
[06:51] <chowmeined> Pixus 3100 drivers segfault sometimes and even when it does work it is extermely red and there is no way to change it.. has anybody gotten this printer to work properly? Preferably with open source drivers?
[06:51] <big_bang14> LjL, your a life saver! thank god for people like you!
[06:51] <DarkSpirit> POVaddct: I have a problem with XChat itself
[06:51] <Kiryn> can anyone tell me why monodevelop isn't in the appliciations menu?
[06:51] <kingofbadluck> shafto. ive instaled those packages the !ntfs-3g ones..... and it has not solved my problem
[06:51] <Shafto> Woody_, Hehe okay, have fun
[06:52] <DarkSpirit> POVaddct: For some reason it has decided to cut off the last letter whenever I or someone else types
[06:52] <Shafto> kingofbadluck, dont know anything about that never had windows and ubuntu at the same time
[06:52] <Woody_> ill be back Shafto  to teach me how to install the nvidia driver
[06:52] <POVaddct> DarkSpirit: sorry, i stopped using xchat some years ago, so i cannot help you with this
[06:52] <Shafto> Woody_, Haha

[06:53] <big_bang14> treehousetim, you plug it in and it doesnt work?
[06:53] <treehousetim> right.
[06:53] <joonr> Shafto: Thanks, I found the driver in the Add appli9cations applet. The one I had I downloaded directly from nVidia, but that is a generic Linux driver, not Ubuntu specific
[06:53] <big_bang14> treehousetim, have you googled it?
[06:53] <treehousetim> I'm booting from a cd - just trying this out, and when it started up... no mouse movement.
[06:53] <treehousetim> I have googled it.
[06:53] <kingofbadluck> shafto: got the partition mounted. but it has 1 folder named lost+found and no files inside.   should be load of stuff in that partition...... i got one hd (sataone) and 2 partitions.... one xp ntfs and 1 ext3 to ubuntu....... any idea how i can rescue some important files from the xp partition?
[06:53] <bXi> any nx client users here?
[06:54] <big_bang14> treehousetim, anything in the forums?
[06:54] <Shafto> kingofbadluck, I said i dont know much about mounting, other than my cd driver cause it hates linux atm!
[06:54] <bulmer> bXi i have used them
[06:54] <treehousetim> I didn't look at the forums - I looked at the support section of ubuntu.com and found the irc info
[06:54] <meanfish> I mounted a horse one time.
[06:54] <treehousetim> and decided to try it.
[06:55] <big_bang14> treehousetim, www.ubuntuforums.org
[06:55] <treehousetim> in case it was a simple thing.
[06:55] <treehousetim> thanks.

[06:59] <oni-dracula> ok I figured it out... I think it's my nvidia drivers that are causing the restarts.  Out of curiosity I ran xscreensaver-demo and X died and restarted itself.  So can anyone give a suggestion as to a remedy?
[06:59] <meanfish> kingofbadluck:  how are you mounting your windows partition?
[06:59] <Nicholas> kingofbadluck, Terminal, cd /mnt
[07:00] <kingofbadluck> meanfish: i used a program named automatix that autoinstaled some package to mount all partitions
[07:00] <Rprp>   ChanServ ConnectServ Duiv GameServ Global MemoServ NickServ OperServ Roconda Rprp Wesleysld
[07:00] <Brush01uk> Nicholas,right click on folder, select "Make Link"
[07:00] <Kiryn> can anyone tell me why monodevelop isn't in the appliciations menu?
[07:00] <Nicholas> kk
[07:00] <Nicholas> i have no clue
[07:00] <meanfish> open terminal and type "mount"
[07:00] <ByPasS> oni-dracula : have u done nvidia-xconfig ?
[07:00] <meanfish> do you see any where it says "type ntfs?"
[07:00] <Nicholas> Question, should I request a CD of Festy Fawn?
[07:01] <big_bang14> Kiryn, not all programs you install showup in the programs menu
[07:01] <Shafto> Nicholas, With up to a 10 week delievery time no
[07:01] <Nicholas> Yea, I'll probably burn one myself
[07:01] <mp_> also last time i got a cd from ubuntu they burned them wrong
[07:01] <Kiryn> so how do I start it
[07:01] <big_bang14> Kiryn, you might have to run it from the terminal
[07:01] <oni-dracula> ByPasS, I have a new kernel version... I'm thinking maybe I need to recompile my nvidia driver for this new version?  Will nvidia-xconfig do this or do I need to reinstall from the script?
[07:01] <mp_> that was back in 5.04 lol
[07:01] <meanfish> it's funny...
[07:01] <Kiryn> yeah but how do I run it
[07:02] <Kiryn> i got the terminal opened
[07:02] <Nicholas> Which do you prefer, Kubuntu or Ubuntu?
[07:02] <meanfish> when you're new, you hate the terminal.

[07:09] <vox754> !checkinstall
[07:09] <ubotu> checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running!
[07:09] <vox754> !info checkinstall

[07:11] <Tom47> Nicholas76: yes but sometimes it takes a while
[07:11] <Nicholas76> oh.
[07:12] <Tom47> Nicholas76: and depends on what you want and where in the world you are
[07:12] <Xanthus35> I just reinstalled ubuntu and it said it was seeing itself and xp but when I rebooted it went directly into xp grub booter did not come up
[07:12] <ardchoille> Nicholas76: BTW, ShipIt will only send you cd's of Ubuntu 6.06.1 LTS (Dapper Drake).
[07:12] <Nicholas76> hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
[07:12] <pokoko> soberwinux, ask yourself this question. Why aren't you getting any answer ?
[07:12] <pokoko> soberwinux, because this is not the appropriate channel to ask development related question.
[07:13] <soberwinux> i have not seen  this error message ,
[07:13] <Nicholas76> Should I dual-boot Vista and Ubuntu on my new computer?
[07:13] <carpola> ew vista
[07:13] <carpola> :D
[07:13] <pokoko> soberwinux, it'd be in your best interest to ask these sort of question in more programming oriented channel such as #gcc, #C++ or some such.
[07:13] <Tom47> ardchoille feisty is now available to order via shipit https://shipit.ubuntu.com/login
[07:13] <soberwinux> pokoko , what's meaning of "bad dynamic tag "?
[07:13] <Nicholas76> I happen to like Vista...
[07:13] <ardchoille> Nicholas76: I feel that Windows isn't necessary.. I haven't touched Windows since 2001.
[07:14] <Nicholas76> !!!
[07:14] <pokoko> soberwinux, can't help you. If I knew don't you think I'd help ?
[07:14] <Nicholas76> I started using Ubuntu after XP crashed.
[07:14] <Xanthus35> pokoko gquestion why are I not getting an aswer to my grub question

[07:14] <carpola> i just switched to ubuntu and i love it so much more than windows
[07:14] <Juanca> Hi can anybody help me. I did a new partition for the /var folder, with GParted using the live CD, now I get a text interface telling me there's an error.
[07:14] <ardchoille> Tom47: That's awesome. Thank you for the update :)
[07:14] <pokoko> Xanthus35, either 1. People are not interested in answering your question 2. Don't know about grub
[07:14] <st9> Hi, I am using 6.10 and a recent update has caused my touchpad to become very slow. In xorg.conf it is configured as an alps touchpad with synaptics driver.. how can I speed it up?
[07:15] <pokoko> Xanthus35, sometimes asking the question to yourself helps. Google, Yahoo! also helps.
[07:15] <chowmeined> Xanthus35: I can help
[07:15] <Juanca> carpola: so do I, but now I'm in the middle of a love-hate feeling
[07:15] <Turms_ubu> i have feisty, a graphic card nvidia geforce3 TI500 , i have 3d+beryl on edgy on another partition, but now i cannot find the right driver, the right choise should be nvidia-glx but it doesn't seem to support the gpu, nvidia-glx-legacy works but i have 800x600 only, is it a bug or what?
[07:15] <kadakas> how can i specify a mount point for my hdd using gparted ?
[07:15] <soberwinux> this problem have someting to do with the linux system. not only the program such as c or c++ ,so i submit the problem here
[07:15] <pokoko> chowmeined, thanks for raising your hands up.
[07:15] <Juanca> Hi can anybody help me. I did a new partition for the /var folder, with GParted using the live CD, now I get a text interface telling me there's an error.
[07:15] <pokoko> :)
[07:15] <carpola> juanca: from where is the hate coming :)
[07:15] <chowmeined> Xanthus35: do you have that livecd handy?
[07:15] <gregcha117> im having some troubles with my microphone, it seems to work fine, i can hear it on the desktop, then when i use sound recorder nothing records and it says invalid parameters when i try to save, and in audacity it records but with an annoying digital hiss noise throughout
[07:15] <Xanthus35> I have serched the seach engines and this is my last stop so to speak
[07:15] <Shafto> Turms_ubu, You tried adding extra resolutions into your xorg.conf?
[07:15] <Xanthus35> yes I do
[07:16] <Nicholas76> In Terminal, (on my Live CD) I type "su" and it asks me for a password. What is the password for the Live CD?
[07:16] <chowmeined> Xanthus35: ok boot into that
[07:16] <Juanca> carpola: Now I'm not able to login, actually now I only get a text interface
[07:16] <POVaddct> !rootsudo | Nicholas76
[07:16] <Xanthus35> ok
[07:16] <ubotu> Nicholas76: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[07:16] <pokoko> Xanthus35, chowmeined is trying to help you. ;) Listen to him/her
[07:16] <Nicholas76> Ok
[07:16] <stephen> where do I go for ati driver troubleshooting?
[07:16] <carpola> juanca: you can just start up gdm again and get a gui interface
[07:16] <Turms_ubu> Shafto,  yes i have other resolution, namely 1024x768 and 1200x1024 depth 24
[07:16] <Nicholas76> That helps, cause in Knoppix you can just type su.
[07:17] <Xanthus35> I know answring him/her as instruction are given
[07:17] <Shafto> Turms_ubu, You tried running nvidia-settings?
[07:17] <Juanca> carpola: how can I start gdm again
[07:17] <chowmeined> Xanthus35: when you are booted into that, open a terminal
[07:17] <POVaddct> Nicholas76: sudo -s   gets you a root shell
[07:17] <Juanca> carpola: I did a new partition for the /var folder, with GParted using the live CD, now I get a text interface telling me there's an error.
[07:17] <Xanthus35> OK
[07:17] <Nicholas76> TY
[07:17] <chowmeined> Xanthus35: do you have sata drives or pata?
[07:17] <Xanthus35> sata drives
[07:17] <pokoko> Juanca, restarting gdm is just a matter of doing "sudo invoke-rc.d gdm restart" in your terminal.
[07:17] <carpola> juanca: hmm i always started by typing in like, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[07:18] <Juanca> pokoko, carpola: I will try it
[07:18] <pokoko> Juanca, either will do.
[07:18] <pokoko> ;)
[07:18] <carpola> whats the command in xchat to write someones name quickly?
[07:18] <chowmeined> Xanthus35: type: gksudo /boot/grub/menu.lst
[07:18] <Shafto> carpola, tab
[07:19] <Nicholas76> Ubuntu is my FAVORITE OS ever! :)
[07:19] <Xanthus35> ok writing that down
[07:19] <stephen> hello?
[07:19] <gregcha117> m having some troubles with my microphone, it seems to work fine, i can hear it on the desktop, then when i use sound recorder nothing records and it says invalid parameters when i try to save, and in audacity it records but with an annoying digital hiss noise throughout
[07:19] <POVaddct> carpola: write only the first letters, then press the tab key
[07:19] <pokoko> carpola, you need to type first few letters of the nick and then press TAB.
[07:19] <stephen> ati driver help?
[07:19] <chowmeined> Xanthus35: can you paste that on a site?
[07:19] <pokoko> !ati
[07:19] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[07:19] <carpola> ah excellent thanks. it wasnt working earlier and i thought itd be the same command as regular mirc
[07:19] <Juanca> pokoko: First one didn't
[07:19] <pokoko> carpola, Xchat is designed to be very user friendly
[07:19] <POVaddct> carpola: mirc is not regular. it is terrible.
[07:20] <Turms_ubu> Shafto, no, i didn't try nvidia-settings, but the problem is that according to what i see on the nvidia site the card should be supported by the driver 96xx that is nvidia-glx, but that driver doesn't seem supporting the gpu, but it is not true because in edgy i have a driver of the 96xx series
[07:20] <pokoko> Juanca, ok. then the second one will.
[07:20] <st9> Hi, I am using 6.10 and my touchpad is too slow after an update. In xorg.conf it is configured as an alps touchpad with synaptics driver. how can I speed it up? anyone familiar with this config?
[07:20] <Shafto> Turms_ubu, ask in #ubuntu+1 then
[07:20] <Nicholas76> I was reading on the Ubuntu Community help and saw: Ubuntu 7.04 can import your Windows bookmarks, favorites, wallpaper, documents, and pictures. It also includes software to read and write files on your Windows drive.  COOL!
[07:20] <Sonas> hey Im running Edgy and when i shutdown, all i get is something like this "will now shutdown  {numbers. numbers}. I had a similar problem on 6.06 and that was solved by editing the menu.lst file but I dont know how to edit the new one. can anyone help? Thanks
[07:20] <Turms_ubu> Shafto, ah ok, sorry, i didn't recollect feisty is not out yet
[07:20] <chowmeined> Xanthus35: you can use http://rafb.net/paste/ to paste on
[07:20] <Bsims> Any idea why I can't scroll in a video on ipod that I converted with Vive?
[07:20] <pokoko> st9, i believe if you play around the settings in your mouse configuration, you'll be able to speed up your mouse pointer
[07:21] <stephen> how do you get a task manager up in gnome?
[07:21] <Shafto> Turms_ubu, np
[07:21] <st9> pokoko: thanks will try this
[07:21] <Shafto> stephen, I think its in system admin system monitpr
[07:21] <Juanca> carpola: Ok, it seemed to work, how do I restart or what do i do to see If I got the graphic interface again?
[07:21] <stephen> HELP
[07:21] <pokoko> stephen, go to your terminal and type "top".
[07:21] <carpola> Juanca, if you started it, it should go to the main login screen
[07:22] <carpola> Juanca, what happened when you entered the start command?
[07:22] <stephen> kill right?
[07:22] <st9> pokoko: appears that makes no difference. also I installed the gsynaptics package, but altering this made no difference to the touchpad. Would I need to restart gdm to see any difference?
[07:22] <Juanca> carpola: It didn't.  I had a similar problem on 6.06 and that was solved by editing the menu.lst file but I dont know how to edit the new one. can anyone help? Thanks
[07:23] <stephen> how do I kill a process?
[07:23] <carpola> Juanca, hmmmm i had that problem yesterday and i ended up reformatting. do you know how you go to that problem in the first place?
[07:23] <pokoko> stephen, no please type "gnome-system-monitor"
[07:23] <pokoko> stephen, killall process_name
[07:23] <Nicholas76> Does anyone have a link on how to dual boot ubuntu and windows?
[07:23] <pokoko> st9, try that
[07:23] <Xanthus35> chowmeined once I have that opened what do I do then please
[07:23] <pokoko> !dualboot
[07:23] <ubotu> Dual boot instructions:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo (x86/AMD64) - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot (Macintosh)
[07:24] <stephen> thank you
[07:24] <pokoko> np
[07:24] <Nicholas76> That was fast!
[07:24] <chowmeined> Xanthus35: oh paste the contents on http://rafb.net/paste/.. and send me the link so I can see
[07:24] <pokoko> heh
[07:24] <POVaddct> pokoko: killall should be used with caution
[07:24] <Juanca> carpola: no I've been through a lot of different problems, I'm only trying to not format because I have important information saved inside a virtual machine
[07:24] <Xanthus35> ok
[07:24] <pokoko> POVaddct, i know it kills all the process.
[07:24] <pokoko> POVaddct, but for clearness and easyness. ;)
[07:24] <Xanthus35> going to boot into live cd
[07:25] <carpola> Juanca, are you dualbooting with vista?
[07:25] <POVaddct> pokoko: all processes with the given name
[07:25] <Juanca> carpola: that's why I'm hating ubuntu by now
[07:25] <pokoko> yes yes
[07:25] <carpola> juana, or any other os for that matter
[07:25] <chowmeined> Xanthus35: if you google "cgi irc work" there is a web based irc client you can use
[07:25] <Juanca> carpola: no I was running VMWare with Windows XP as guest in Ubuntu
[07:25] <pokoko> Juanca, why do you hate Ubuntu ? it should be the easiest and the most friendlist Linux distro.
[07:25] <chowmeined> Xanthus35: if you can access the internet with your livecd
[07:25] <Bsims> Any idea why I can't scroll in a video on ipod that I converted with Vive?
[07:26] <IndyN00b> Hello.  Is there a way to tell fsck to run on bootup so it is not scanning the root filesystem while it is in use?
[07:26] <Juanca> pokoko: That's what I supposed, now I can't even enter
[07:26] <carpola> Juanca, hmm i had that problem yesterday but i didn't know how to fix it. i accidentally deleted my windows partition trying to merge an empty HD so i just reformatted.
[07:26] <carpola> Juanca,  i would ask someone else here because i just started with ubuntu
[07:26] <DM|> Anyone have an idea how to make World of warcraft  start up not soft lock the computer when running beryl
[07:26] <POVaddct> Juanca: you said you made a separate partition for /var. did you copy the contents of the old /var directory to it?
[07:27] <IgorSobreira> im trying to create a Makefile here...to install a program...but it looks for a "glib.h" and cont find....anybody knows how can i get it??
[07:27] <clearzen> IndyN00b: You can set disk checks on boot with tune2fs
[07:27] <zootm> DM|: You could probably just use the beryl control panel to switch to Metacity when you're about to run the game, but I suspect that's not hte answer you wanted
[07:27] <IndyN00b> Thanks clearzen
[07:27] <DM|> zootm nah i got that part, but i want to be able to load it with Beryl on.
[07:27] <clearzen> IndyN00b: I think it is the -c option...it will check every number of boot depending on what you specify
[07:27] <Juanca> POVaddct: yes, by the terminal though. Do you want me to tell you what I did exactly?
[07:27] <pokoko> IgorSobreira, you do not in normal circumstance need to create a Makefile to install program
[07:28] <POVaddct> Juanca: yes
[07:28] <carlesoriol> how can i made xchat check spell in my language?
[07:28] <Nicholas76> I g2g. Be Back Later ;)
[07:28] <IgorSobreira> pokoko: but do you know how can i get this...glib...i don even know whats that
[07:29] <Juanca> POVaddct: First I mounted the partitions I had. The old one for / and the new empty one for /var
[07:29] <pokoko> IgorSobreira, those are mostly header files need to run a program. Those header files are infact a C header file that are needed to compile your software
[07:29] <Juanca> POVaddct: then I did this: mv -v /mnt/sda1/var/* /mnt/sda4/
[07:29] <tiky> #ubuntu-es
[07:29] <pokoko> IgorSobreira, it depends on which package you are trying to compile.
[07:29] <pokoko> IgorSobreira, what's the error when you do "./configure" ?
[07:30] <Znortfl> Hello, I got a logitech dual action gamepad. Is there any way I can configure Ubuntu to say, if I press button 1 on it, Ubuntu acts as if I pressed enter?
[07:30] <Juanca> POVaddct: after that completed I did this: dumpe2fs /dev/sda4|grep UUID
[07:30] <IgorSobreira> pokoko: checking for GLIB - version >= 2.8.0... no
[07:30] <ardchoille> IgorSobreira: Which app are you compiling?
[07:30] <gregcha117> im having some troubles with my microphone, it seems to work fine, i can hear it on the desktop, then when i use sound recorder nothing records and it says invalid parameters when i try to save, and in audacity it records but with an annoying digital hiss noise throughout
[07:30] <IgorSobreira> pokoko:  This usually means GLIB is incorrectly installed
[07:30] <pokoko> IgorSobreira, have you installed glib header packages using synaptic ?
[07:31] <Juanca> POVaddct: then I open fstab with nano and added something like this: UUID=2bd95e5c-e86b-4335-a95a-94279b1213c5 /var       ext3    defaults        0       1
[07:31] <AaronMT> What is the URL to the latest FF build?
[07:31] <samu> Can someone recommend a command line program for splitting up a wav into smaller wavs at certain times?
[07:31] <IgorSobreira> pokoko: im lookin for it on apt-get
[07:31] <IgorSobreira> pokoko: glibc6 ?
[07:31] <POVaddct> Juanca: sounds reasonable so far
[07:31] <Juanca> POVaddct: and finally I restarted
[07:31] <ffm> HELP! I cant write to a disk!
[07:31] <vox754> Want to talk about programming, C, C++, Python, OpenGL, and Lisp? Visit #ubuntu-programming
[07:32] <pokoko> IgorSobreira, start synaptic and install libc6 and libc6-dev
[07:32] <pokoko> yes
[07:32] <ardchoille> IgorSobreira: Which app are you compiling? Have yo checked for it in *all* the repos?
[07:32] <ffm> I have a memory stick pluged itn that is FAT32, but it clames to be full!
[07:32] <IgorSobreira> pokoko: thanks
[07:32] <pokoko> tell me thanks when it runs OK. ;)
[07:32] <POVaddct> Juanca: can you check if the new /var partition is actually mounted?
[07:32] <pokoko> heh
[07:32] <Juanca> POVaddct: How do I do that?
[07:32] <POVaddct> Juanca: df
[07:32] <pokoko> ffm, can you please be little more specific ?
[07:33] <xamox> why when I try to run php4 anytime i try to visit my site it tries to download a PHTML file but if I run php5 it doesn't? The code isn't php5 specific either. I want to run php4 because that's what my production server runs.
[07:33] <jerome_> hi, do you know how i can scroll an xterm buffer with keyboard?
[07:33] <Juanca> POVaddct: Yes it's there, but it says it's full
[07:33] <thingy> jerome_, doesn't shift pageup/down work?
[07:33] <POVaddct> Juanca: so this is the problem
[07:34] <Znortfl> Hello, anybody got any information on using a gamepad on Ubuntu without super-sensitive analog controllers? I am trying to play supertux with it, but Its really sensitive and the native gamepad support in the game lacks the option
[07:34] <gene6482> can anyone help me edit dsdt so my sound will work?  apparently my acpi isn't set up correctly
[07:35] <ffm> pokoko: I have a disk that fits 1gb of data. It says its capasity is 128 mb.
[07:35] <Juanca> POVaddct: what can I do, there (inside/var) is a folder called vm which has VMWare files, and I don't want to errase them
[07:35] <st9> pokoko: hi, touchpad still very slow after altering the mouse and synaptics settings. could the problem be in xorg.conf?
[07:35] <jerome_> thingy no it doesn't
[07:35] <Juanca> POVaddct: That's why I moved /var in the first place
[07:35] <ardchoille> xamox: Have you done this? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP#head-bcc9faae4e29d55af8fd528ecfa758a5563ff7bd
[07:35] <defjux> ok so when i try to access my hd a lot.. like say checking torrents and listening to a mp3.. my system seizes.. my ram gradually maxes out over 10-20 seconds my cpu use drops to near 0 and my computer almost totally stops responding
[07:35] <defjux> (i can move my mouse very jerkily) is this my HD crashing? what ubuntu files are crucial to backup please
[07:36] <POVaddct> Juanca: do you have enough space on / to move them temporary there?
[07:36] <thingy> jerome_, what terminal emulator is it? xterm/gnome terminal/konsole/rxvt/aterm etc.
[07:36] <pokoko> st9, I can't help you further. But maybe someone with more knowledge could help here. any laptop geeks around ?
[07:36] <pokoko> heh
[07:36] <jerome_> xterm
[07:36] <ffm> pokoko: I realy need to be able to use this.
[07:36] <st9> pokoko: no probs thanks for your help
[07:37] <defjux> hi i missed any answers there
[07:37] <jerome_> thingy: screen running in xterm
[07:37] <pokoko> pokoko, so umounting and mounting won't help ?
[07:37] <POVaddct> Juanca: btw, you should have checked the size of /var before making a separate partition for it: du -sh /var
[07:37] <pokoko> ffm, so umounting and mounting won't help ?
[07:37] <jerome_> thingy: maybe a screen configuration
[07:37] <defjux> ok so when i try to access my hd a lot.. like say checking torrents and listening to a mp3.. my system seizes.. my ram gradually maxes out over 10-20 seconds my cpu use drops to near 0 and my computer almost totally stops responding
[07:37] <defjux> (i can move my mouse very jerkily) is this my HD crashing? what ubuntu files are crucial to backup please??
[07:37] <Juanca> POVaddct: that has no sense, I've just did the contrary to free space in / (20G), and the new partition with /var has almost 15G. I have plenty of space in the partition for /home
[07:37] <pokoko> ffm, it's FAT partition right ?
[07:38] <Juanca> POVaddct: /var, has about 9.2G
[07:38] <gene6482> can anyone help me edit dsdt so my sound will work?  apparently my acpi isn't set up correctly
[07:38] <ffm> pokoko: FAT32
[07:38] <Juanca> POVaddct: or had when I checked
[07:38] <ffm> pokoko: It is a flash stick.
[07:38] <abcdef> I want to execute some command when i boot up can i just add it to rc.local?
[07:38] <POVaddct> Juanca: well vmware files tend to get larger during usage
[07:38] <pokoko> ffm, ok do "sudo umount /dev/your_usb_stick_device"
[07:39] <POVaddct> Juanca: they are growable disk formats
[07:39] <Juanca> POVaddct: that should be, but what then
[07:39] <ffm> pokoko: It is media/diskt
[07:39] <ffm> *disk
[07:39] <POVaddct> Juanca: i wonder why vmware images are in /var anyway
[07:39] <Juanca> POVaddct: if I make a new pariin probably it will fill it too
[07:39] <Juanca> POVaddct: I don't know
[07:39] <pokoko> ffm, do "cat /etc/fstab" and paste it's output to pastebin
[07:39] <ffm> pokoko: Never mind, it is sdb.
[07:39] <pokoko> !pastebin
[07:39] <jerome_> thingy: I've the solution : Ctrl+a + Esc then I can scroll

[07:40] <pokoko> ffm, ok cool
[07:40] <jerome_> thingy: thank you
[07:40] <thingy> jerome_, yeah i just came across it as well http://gentoo-wiki.com/TIP_Using_screen#Scrolling_back_in_Screen
[07:40] <pokoko> ffm, umount it
[07:40] <ffm> pokoko: So, do I remount now?
[07:40] <POVaddct> Juanca: either way, you have to get some free space in /var, otherwise some services (including gdm) won't run
[07:40] <pokoko> ffm, then do "sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdb"
[07:40] <pokoko> ffm, yes
[07:40] <pokoko> ffm, what it reports ?
[07:41] <ffm> pokoko: Invalid.
[07:41] <mythtv> Okay, I am trying to get a LAMP stack going in Ubuntu 6.10
[07:41] <pokoko> ffm, what ?
[07:41] <ffm> pokoko: Gives me help message
[07:41] <mythtv> but Apache stubbornly will NOT run php properly
[07:41] <POVaddct> Juanca: i've set up an extra partition /home/images for my qemu disk images.
[07:41] <pokoko> ffm, "sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdb1 /media/diskt" ?
[07:41] <pokoko> ffm, sorry sdb1
[07:41] <xamox> ardchoille, yeah I followed everything on that page, cleared my cache, it's still trying to download the php file
[07:41] <pokoko> :)
[07:42] <ffm> sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdb1 /media/disk
[07:42] <ardchoille> mythtv: There are sections for php in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP
[07:42] <pokoko> ffm, yeah
[07:42] <ferronica> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[07:42] <Juanca> POVaddct: but being he VMWare the folder that's fulfilling my partitions I could only errase files from there, but I'm afraid to me that's like re-formating if I lose my files inside VMWare.
[07:42] <ffm> pokoko: REply was mount: mount point /media/disk does not exist
[07:42] <joonr> Hi everyone. Screencard driver sorted out thanks :) Next question: I installed MonoDevelop through the add / remove programs applet, and when I click on it to start I get the "Starting MonoDevelop" bar in my task bar, but it just disappears silently after about 15 seconds. How can I troubleshoot this issue?
[07:42] <Juanca> POVaddct: What's qemu
[07:42] <pokoko> ffm, you need a directory called /media/disk
[07:42] <ardchoille> xamox: Did you install the libapache2-mod-php4 package and do the tweaks in the Troubleshooting sections? Those helped me.
[07:42] <pokoko> ffm, "sudo mkdir /media/disk"
[07:42] <POVaddct> Juanca: an open source pc emulator
[07:42] <erUSUL> joonr: launch it from a terminal and check if it spits some error
[07:43] <ferronica> when i try to uninstall xmmx from add/remove got this error-->E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[07:43] <xamox> ardchoille, yeah, that's installed. ran a2enmod php4
[07:43] <joonr> excellent idea, thanks. How do I launch it from a terminal?
[07:43] <ffm> pokoko: Done.
[07:43] <Juanca> POVaddct: as good as VMWare?
[07:43] <ardchoille> xamox: Restarted apache?
[07:43] <pokoko> ffm, "sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdb1 /media/diskt"  now please
[07:43] <pokoko> ffm, "sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdb1 /media/disk"  now please
[07:43] <Nicholas76> Here's what I plan on doing: Get a laptop in October with Vista Home Premium loaded on it. Install Ubuntu to dual-boot with Windows. Do you think it's worth it, or should I just use Ubuntu?
[07:43] <xamox> ardchoille, yep.
[07:43] <ardchoille> xamox: :(
[07:43] <ffm> pokoko: Done.
[07:43] <xamox> ardchoille, cleared the cache too
[07:44] <Donovan> can Ubuntu automatically handle RPM package files?
[07:44] <pokoko> ffm, now just do "df -h"
[07:44] <POVaddct> Juanca: no, but i doesnt even need a kernel module to run
[07:44] <POVaddct> Juanca: s/i/it
[07:44] <pokoko> ffm, see how much disk is available in /media/disk ?
[07:44] <xamox> ardchoille, trying a2enmod php4 again says its already enabled.
[07:44] <pokoko> ffm, is it correct ?
[07:44] <Znortfl> Hello people, I am trying to install qjoypad, but the installer keeps complaining about a package called "libqt3c102-mt". I can't seem to install it via apt-get. What am I doing wrong?
[07:44] <ffm> pokoko: Yes. It is fixed. Do I have to do this EVERY time i plug it in?
[07:44] <Jinxed> where do i put skin files for vlc player?
[07:44] <pokoko> ffm, it's probably because of autoamtic handling by pmount.
[07:44] <Juanca> POVaddct: I need to run Photoshop inside it, I don't think qemu is an option
[07:45] <Nicholas76> Is dual-booting worth it?
[07:45] <pokoko> ffm, which leads to *uck-ups sometime.
[07:45] <Juanca> POVaddct: Well, do you see any possible solution?
[07:45] <POVaddct> Juanca: fortunately i dont need any windows software
[07:45] <pokoko> ffm, now just do "sudo gedit /etc/fstab" please
[07:45] <Donovan> depends on your need.
[07:45] <POVaddct> Juanca: moving one the of vmware image files is no option?
[07:45] <Juanca> POVaddct: I'm following your path, but I'm starting
[07:45] <Nicholas76> Is it hard to dualboot?
[07:45] <Shafto> Juanca, Why do you need photoshop? GIMP is just s good
[07:45] <POVaddct> Juanca: i never really used windows
[07:46] <ffm> pokoko: Ok
[07:46] <vox754> Nicholas76, very easy, very convenient
[07:46] <bluefox83> Nicholas76, depends on your setup, sometimes it's very straight forward
[07:46] <loveasy> ```

[07:55] <dzer0> I have XP on my system, and am downloading 7.04 to install, but the problem is I might be putting vista on here soon. When I install vista will I have to install GRUB again to make dual booting work or what?

[07:57] <bluefox83> ravalox, there are probably posts on the forums about that stuff, you might try googling for it
[07:57] <Juanca> POVaddct: sure

[07:59] <eltese> Hi everybody! ;p Is ubuntu/kubuntu (not decided wich Im gonna use yet) easy to manage with a laptop? Ive got mixed answer in the past regarding this question so now I wonder if anyone would give me a validated opinion? :)
[07:59] <bluefox83> Juanca, and right now the server is down for maintenance D:
[07:59] <RAW-mEAT> eltese just run the live system from cd and check if everything works fine. ;)
[08:00] <alexnb185> guys I need help with extracting the ndiswrapper.. It says I have everything.. but when i try and do something with it.. it is never there
[08:00] <bluefox83> eltese, i have no personal experience with it on laptops, but i have several freinds that run it on theirs, and they don't seem to have much trouble once they figure out ndiswrapper for their wireless card
[08:00] <eltese> RAW-mEAT : Kind of embarrassing not to think about that honestly =)
[08:00] <eltese> bluefox83: ok, thx =)
[08:00] <zntneo> i'm having problems with my ndiswrapper anyone care to help?
[08:01] <bluefox83> zntneo, you might try giving full details (use a pastebin for pasting outputs from your machine)
[08:01] <zntneo> what do you need blue?
[08:02] <zntneo> thats why i didn't expalin becuase i'm not even sure what to post
[08:02] <bluefox83> zntneo, give people the details of the problem
[08:02] <peepsalot> does anyone here use tomboy + kubuntu?
[08:02] <zntneo> it seems that my card stops working randomly
[08:02] <zntneo> and then works again
[08:02] <DarkSpirit> Anyone know a Linux Binary Usenet Reader ?
[08:03] <peepsalot> when i load tomboy, it makes a space for it in the tray, but the icon is invisible, this is really annoying
[08:03] <Shafto> peepsalot, try #kubuntu
[08:03] <zntneo> heres my dmesg http://www.pastebin.ca/441415
[08:03] <JensenDied> Hello, does anyone have a reccomened irc server for running under ubuntu (edgy, or soon to be fiesty)?
[08:04] <bluefox83> zntneo, from what i have heard, the only reason wireless cards give out like that is a weak signal
[08:04] <zntneo> it seems the link becomes not ready randomly
[08:04] <pokoko> JensenDied, there are lots, try the unreal. easiest to configure and works out of the box.
[08:04] <ferronica> pokoko: what i do now?

[08:06] <rob_> my skydomes do not appear in beryl when i access the cube, why is this?
[08:06] <bluefox83> zntneo, about it becoming "not ready" randomly?
[08:06] <bluefox83> zntneo, and your router being 50 feet away?
[08:06] <zntneo> yes
[08:07] <zntneo> it just did it again
[08:07] <pokoko> heh
[08:07] <savan> is there some option to download ubuntu in dvd, even by jigdo or bt means?
[08:07] <pokoko> that Drum beat was too much
[08:07] <Powerking89670> *buh dum clash*
[08:07] <pokoko> ferronica, bear with me for I am serving 2 channels at once
[08:07] <pokoko> :)
[08:07] <bluefox83> zntneo, yeah i saw, but you gotta realise if you don't have enough bandwidth on it, it's still going to cut out. my girlfreind's cousin can sit 3 feet from his router but it can still do that (in windows) and the problem is, he's not pushing enough bandwidth
[08:07] <ferronica> pokoko: ok
[08:08] <Spee_Der> I think I have Ubuntu 6.06 LTS on dvd somewhere here....
[08:08] <bluefox83> savan, google ubuntu installer dvd
[08:08] <zntneo> oh i have plenty of bandwidth. i am on a college lan
[08:08] <Amrog> what is the difference between "mark for removal" and "mark for complete removal"?
[08:08] <rob_> !beryl
[08:08] <ubotu> Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[08:08] <zntneo> i've gotten above i think a t3 in bandwidth before
[08:08] <pokoko> ferronica, so what did "dpkg --configure -a" do ?
[08:08] <philip_> Amrog, complete removal removes config files as well
[08:08] <bluefox83> Amrog, marking for removal keeps the settings files and such so that if you decide to reinstall later you wont have to re-do the settings, complete removal removes even the settings files
[08:08] <Xanthus35> Chowmeined here is the url rafb,net/p/Kmvn5E42.html  for the grub menu.1st
[08:09] <Amrog> OK, thanks.
[08:09] <Shadow_X> what app is it that handles the GNOME config for noobs?
[08:09] <sarracenia88> hello
[08:09] <loveasy_> hello!
[08:09] <pokoko> ferronica, in case you are struggling, you put that command in your terminal
[08:09] <pokoko> loveasy, hi!
[08:09] <shatrat> Shadow_X, gconf editor?
[08:09] <Shadow_X> theres an easy to use interface for configing themes and such in Ubuntu. I had it before and forgot it
[08:10] <zntneo> bluefox83: so i'm pretty sure its not bandwidth probs
[08:10] <loveasy_> hehe
[08:10] <bluefox83> Shadow_X, i think you want the package gnome-art ;)
[08:10] <Shadow_X> THATS IT!!
[08:10] <Shadow_X> lol
[08:10] <Shadow_X> thanks
[08:10] <sarracenia88> its called gnome control center

[08:14] <Xanthus35> can someone please repost the urls for dual booting
[08:15] <sarracenia88> and you say that it is a x86 program
[08:15] <pastry> what music player is best to use in gnome?
[08:15] <sarracenia88> i use rythmbox
[08:15] <pokoko> ferronica, everything went well I guess. It was a problem with your dpkg subsystem because probably you failed to install/uninstall some package before and had corrupted the dpkg's local repository
[08:15] <sarracenia88> it works fine
[08:15] <erider> sarracenia88: 32bit program
[08:15] <sarracenia88> try reinstalling it from synaptic
[08:15] <sarracenia88> might help, but no garuntees
[08:15] <ferronica> pokoko: yes when install Gsteamer at that time system hans up and i restarted my computer.
[08:16] <pokoko> jessid, yes. when edit your /grub/menu.lst

[08:19] <Powerking89670> Im just happy I finally got the gd codecs :p
[08:19] <savan> so that ubuntu ningi is official?
[08:19] <pokoko> sarracenia88, Powerking89670 is happy probably he got codecs working
[08:19] <pokoko> heh
[08:19] <pokoko> :)
[08:19] <sarracenia88> oh
[08:19] <sarracenia88> i know how that feels
[08:19] <ffm> pokoko: Still having same issue when I remount.
[08:19] <unmanarc> oh, thanks :D
[08:19] <Powerking89670> I cant use AramoK but that's a small defeat
[08:20] <PirateHead> I updated to the latest recommended kernel version last night and it broke my wireless connection. How can I fix it?
[08:20] <jessid> pokoko: i have found it...do i write the noapic option in the kernel or initrd line???
[08:20] <ffm> pokoko: *plug it in again.
[08:20] <pokoko> ffm, what issue ? saying invalid disk space ?
[08:20] <Powerking89670> I won the war afterall :D
[08:20] <ffm> pokoko: Yes.
[08:20] <sarracenia88> why can't you use it
[08:20] <alex_> pokoko:I have all sorts of  error msgs of the kind:
[08:20] <ned> when i run dvd::rip and rip a dvd, it hangs on "Grab preview"
[08:20] <alex_>  at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.run(libgcj.so.70)
[08:20] <alex_> I'm trying to run matrex
[08:20] <sarracenia88> ned: uncheck grab preview
[08:20] <pokoko> jessid in the kernel option
[08:21] <sarracenia88> in the config
[08:21] <vox754> PirateHead, which kernel, which Ubuntu?  I thought i was going to have to work with vista...now i am more happy! :)
[08:22] <pokoko> alex_, goodluck
[08:22] <alexnb185> guys if i type in ndiswrapper -l and it says no drivers detected... how can i get it.. i really need soem help
[08:22] <vox754> PirateHead, have you tried the previous kernel, to see if it still works?
[08:22] <ffm> pokoko: It is sdb, there is no sdb1 on my sys.
[08:22] <alex_> thanks
[08:22] <pokoko> jessid, goodluck to you too
[08:22] <osiris_> Hi ive been trying to get NTFS-3G working via automatix but whilst trying to mount my ntfs hard drives i get "Cannot mount un tidly shut down windows please shut down properly" how do i correct this without booting into windows (i do not have windows anywhere)
[08:22] <pokoko> ffm, whatever suits you
[08:23] <alex_> pokoko: what kind do I need to download? it used to be jre  but the changed it
[08:23] <jessid> pokoko: same for you!!!
[08:23] <PirateHead> vox754: I do not know how to do that, but it sounds like a good idea. Can you clue me in? =D
[08:23] <PirateHead> !automatix | osiris_
[08:23] <ubotu> osiris_: automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[08:23] <pokoko> alex_, fire up synaptic "sudo synaptic" and look for "sun-java-bin"
[08:24] <pokoko> jessid, cool.
[08:24] <pokoko> :)
[08:24] <vox754> alexnb185, first you need to install some drivers like "sudo ndiswrapper -i <file>.inf"
[08:24] <pokoko> !beer
[08:24] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about beer - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:24] <pokoko> heh
[08:24] <dzer0> I have XP on my system, and am downloading 7.04 to install, but the problem is I might be putting vista on here soon. When I install vista will I have to install GRUB again to make dual booting work or what?
[08:24] <Brad1> how do I check how much ram I have?
[08:24] <alex_> pokoko: thanks, I'll tell you what turned up
[08:24] <osiris_> PirateHead, Ok forget automatix this problem has nothing to do with it because when manually installing NTFS write support it does the same.
[08:25] <vox754> PirateHead, if you upgraded the kernel to 2.6.17-11, then there must still be a 2.6.17-10 option in the grub menu, just pick that one
[08:25] <pokoko> dzer0, we don't have advise for vista
[08:25] <pokoko> dzer0, #vista
[08:25] <djidane> salut
[08:25] <zntneo> so i'm thinking about installing xubuntu. Is there a network-manager for it?
[08:25] <djidane> j'aun probleme avec grub
[08:25] <LjL> !fr | djidane
[08:25] <PirateHead> vox754: I will try looking in Grub.
[08:25] <ubotu> djidane: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[08:25] <djidane> je n'arrive pas a faire de grub-install
[08:25] <Lavwere> hello
[08:25] <reyn> I'm trying to install cedega, apparently I might not have the 32bit nvidia drivers installed, would the NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-1.0-9xxx .run have them ?
[08:25] <djidane> oups sorry
[08:25] <PirateHead> Hello Lavwere
[08:25] <Andy2> I got a qestion
[08:26] <Shafto> !ask | Andy2
[08:26] <ubotu> Andy2: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[08:26] <LjL> osiris_, i've never used ntfs-3g, but obvious the error means that, since the filesystem wasn't unmounted, it may be corrupted. you could manually set the "clean" flag to true, though i have no idea how, but that would mean you'd risk losing data.
[08:26] <Andy2> I downloaded Ubuntu but i shut my computer down after I downloaded it and this morning it disappeared
[08:26] <Andy2> :/
[08:26] <djidane> i've got a problem with grub-install
[08:26] <vox754> PirateHead, you can view the kernels you have under /boot, so don't delete anything in it
[08:26] <pokoko> heh
[08:26] <djidane> redirection unexpected
[08:26] <zntneo> so no one here has expereince with ndiswrapper probs and network manager probs?
[08:26] <pokoko> Andy2, that's called Ubuntu magic
[08:26] <djidane> when i do a grub-install
[08:26] <pokoko> they dissappear if you don't run them.
[08:26] <Shafto> Andy2, Thats called unlucky :(
[08:26] <Andy2> o
[08:26] <Lavwere> I'm following http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/UbuntuOnApple but at the very last step, the reinstallation of grub, I get "The file u/boot/grub/stage1 not read correctly."  So I am not sure I should reboot.   I can't find it in synaptics does anyoen know where i can get it
[08:27] <Andy2> no luck
[08:27] <bricas> perhaps someone can help me get tomcat 5.5 working in feisty. I have it installed, and i started it (shows up in ps ax|grep tomcat), but "tomcat status" says it's not running, and localhost:8180 doesn't respond.
[08:27] <Andy2> I geuss I'll redownload it
[08:28] <pokoko> Andy2, 1. download the image (.iso) 2. Burn it to disc 3. Put the disc 4. Restart the system 5. Set the BIOS to boot from the disc 6. Enjoy Ubuntu!
[08:28] <Brad1> How can I check my system memory in ubuntu? I just installed an extra 256 megs, and I want to be sure it's working correctly.
[08:28] <FreonTrip> catalyst_media:  Using Kubuntu?
[08:28] <Andy2> thanks :)
[08:28] <Lavwere> how can I check if grub is correcly installed on my imac before rebooting?
[08:28] <catalyst_media> no feisty fawn ubuntu
[08:28] <zntneo> does automatix work on xubuntu?
[08:28] <jessid> good bye and thanks a lot...another reason to love Ubuntu Linux!!!! :) :)
[08:28] <Amrog> so, how do I share a printer, connected to my computer, with a windows computer on my home network?
[08:28] <Lavwere> I'm on the feisty fawn live cd, and finished the installation
[08:28] <Andy2> Does Ubuntu support eggdrops?
[08:28] <pokoko> Andy2, if you just use your common sense a little bit it's really easy.
[08:28] <FreonTrip> catalyst_media:  Consider installing KDE, or just doing a search in Synaptic for Qt and seeing what turns up.
[08:29] <pokoko> Andy2, why do you need eggdrops ?
[08:29] <savan> Brad1, just get memtest+, you can either run it from bootable fdd or cd
[08:29] <catalyst_media> I did synaptics and found nothing (actually I found a lot so I don't knwo whcih one to get)
[08:29] <zntneo> disregard last question
[08:29] <dzer0> will ubuntu work with my dual monitors?
[08:29] <catalyst_media> can I install KDE on ubuntu?
[08:29] <Andy2> just wanna host them
[08:29] <pokoko> dzer0, yes
[08:29] <FreonTrip> catalyst_media:  Lemme see...
[08:29] <catalyst_media> okay
[08:30] <zootm> catalyst_media: if you install the package "kubuntu-desktop" it'll install the whole Kubuntu distribution
[08:30] <Noiano> hello
[08:30] <pokoko> dzer0, there's something called xinerama extension in X which can be used for dual display.
[08:30] <pokoko> !xinerama
[08:30] <ubotu> xinerama is an extension to !X to use two or more physical displays as one large virtual display. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo - See also !DualHead
[08:30] <zootm> then you can just choose "KDE" from sessions on the login screen

[08:30] <catalyst_media> will that mess up my other stuff? I'm new to linux so will all my other programs and themes stop working?
[08:30] <pokoko> posek, no!
[08:30] <pokoko> tonyyarusso, some flooding here huh ?
[08:30] <tonyyarusso> ya
[08:30] <zntneo> yea
[08:30] <FreonTrip> catalyst_media:  Doubt it.
[08:30] <pokoko> tonyyarusso, tighten the channel modes
[08:30] <Noiano> anyone can help with the wireless pccard? I can see the ap but I cannot surf...the arp table is emty...
[08:30] <zootm> catalyst_media: It shouldn't affect the stuff you already have installed at all. If you use the same programs in KDE and Gnome they'll share settings though
[08:31] <martinjh99> When is Fiesty Due..?
[08:31] <FreonTrip> Well said.
[08:31] <catalyst_media> wait so to use KDE I need to relogin and say I want to run it in KDE
[08:31] <Amrog> hello everyone, is it possible to share a printer with a windows box?
[08:31] <pokoko> !feisty
[08:31] <ubotu> The next version of Ubuntu (7.04; codenamed "Feisty Fawn") should be released in April 2007. Beta is out! http://www.ubuntu.com/news/Ubuntu704Beta Schedule: !schedule - Specifications (goals): https://features.launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/feisty - Help and support in #ubuntu+1 (NOT #ubuntu)
[08:31] <pokoko> Amrog, in short yes.
[08:31] <FreonTrip> martinjh99:  Feisty's due on the 19th; I'm using it now, and it's basically pure sex in Linux form.
[08:31] <pokoko> Amrog, linuxprinting.org
[08:31] <aldin> martinjh99: 19th april
[08:31] <bXi> are there people who managed to enable monitoring mode on an orinoco card in feisty?  or edgy for that matter
[08:31] <zootm> catalyst_media: Yes, just go to "sessions" on the login screen and select KDE
[08:31] <Andy2> thanks bye now :D
[08:31] <Amrog> pokoko, thanks.
[08:31] <pokoko> np
[08:31] <aldin> martinjh99: if God's will...
[08:32] <zootm> it'll ask you if you want to make it the default then you'll always use it, but you can always go back by selecting Gnome again
[08:32] <catalyst_media> well is there a way to get those qt libraries without KDE?
[08:32] <bulmer> if a DVD or cdrom is a bootable one, shouldn't there be a file at its "root"  that is bootable? or the bootable file can be in a sub-folder ?
[08:32] <martinjh99> FreonTrip> Been using OpenSuse for a while - Think I'll end up going back to Kubuntu...
[08:32] <oreth> small problem... My "taskbar" at the bottom of my screen has gone black, and the only program highlighted and visible is whichever one I"m currently using
[08:32] <FreonTrip> catalyst_media:  You don't have to use KDE; it's just nice to have its libraries available.
[08:32] <zootm> catalyst_media: If you install any KDE app using the package manager it'll install any needed Qt libraries with it, and they'll be used
[08:32] <Noiano> anyone can help with the wireless pccard? I can see the ap but I cannot surf...the arp table is emty...
[08:32] <mjr> bulmer, yes, doesn't need to be at root
[08:33] <bulmer> mjr: what make it search subdirectories for such bootable file?
[08:33] <user_> how do i see what drivers i have installed?
[08:33] <catalyst_media> ohhh so can I delete the other libraries I don't need cause I'm using linux in Vmware and only have 11gbs of space
[08:33] <vox754> catalyst_media, take a look at any KDE application like Kile or Kate and see the dependencies "aptitude show kile"
[08:34] <PirateHead> vox754: I am now using the older kernel version, and my wireless works. That confirms my suspicion that the kernel upgrade killed the wireless driver -- but I still don't know what to do about that .
[08:34] <catalyst_media> what does thatt do for me does it show what I need?
[08:34] <user_> how do i see what drivers i have installed?
[08:34] <digitalhav0c> whats a good usenet client?
[08:34] <martinjh99> IS there a fiesty beta dvd..?
[08:34] <bulmer> Noiano: you can ask the dhcpclient to release and re-establish
[08:34] <mjr> bulmer, the boot image file is spesified in the filesystem metadata as per el torito spec
[08:34] <FreonTrip> catalyst_media:  You might be able to, but I'd advise extreme caution.  Feel free to remove applications you don't use; you can probably view their dependency trees in Synaptic, but be careful about what you take out.
[08:35] <vox754> PirateHead, which card? Thar surely is a problem with the correct drivers or modules, like rt2500 or bcm43xx or ndiswrapper.
[08:35] <pokoko> PirateHead, heh. will copying the .ko file do the trick for you ?
[08:35] <pokoko> PirateHead, keep a backup though.
[08:35] <PirateHead> vox754: It's an Atheros card. I don't know what a .ko file is, pokoko.
[08:35] <FreonTrip> martinjh99:  http://www.ubuntu.com/news/Ubuntu704Beta
[08:35] <bulmer> mjr: can that metadata file be accessible to see which file it uses for booting?  its an iso image, so i have it mounted right now
[08:36] <catalyst_media> okay how do i view dependencies? I can't figure it out
[08:36] <vox754> !who > catalyst_media
[08:36] <pokoko> PirateHead, go to /lib/modules/`uname -r' first please
[08:36] <sontek> How does ubuntu generate the menu.lst on the install for grub?
[08:36] <pokoko> PirateHead, I have seen a driver for atheros there
[08:36] <FreonTrip> martinjh99:  Note that it's still actively in development, so you may run into a little bit of weirdness and you will definitely have to download a BUNCH of updates.
[08:36] <catalyst_media> !who what does that mean?
[08:36] <FreonTrip> !nv
[08:36] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[08:36] <vox754> PirateHead, maybe you are using madwifi and you need to reinstall
[08:36] <Lavwere> how can I check if grub is correctly installed on my system before rebooting? I don't want to be left with a non-booting computer! I'm using the feisty fawn live cd and finished installing.
[08:36] <vox754> !bot > catalyst_media
[08:37] <holotone> How do I extract a multi-part rar in k/ubuntu?
[08:37] <Noiano> bulmer: the dhcp client cannot work because the packet do not reach the ap due to the fact that the arp table is not filled correctly
[08:37] <catalyst_media> vox what are you saying
[08:37] <PirateHead> vox754, pokoko: there is a madwifi driver in my /lib/modules/2.6.17-10-generic folder
[08:37] <FreonTrip> Lavwere:  I don't know.  Can someone help this poor user?
[08:37] <pokoko> PirateHead, you need atheros driver right ?
[08:37] <zani> hey duds when i activate beryl the back of my gnome terminal does not get "real" transparency...does anybody know what may be going on?
[08:37] <vox754> !rar > holotone
[08:37] <PirateHead> pokoko: correct.
[08:37] <bulmer> Noiano: then you can ask arp to re-register itself
[08:37] <linxx> how can i edit a configuration file using the terminal
[08:37] <Noiano> bulmer: how?
[08:38] <Lavwere> FreonTrip: thanks for caring
[08:38] <linxx> please help because i changed xorg.conf and messed up my monitor
[08:38] <vox754> PirateHead, as you see, you need that module also for the newer kernel
[08:38] <PirateHead> linxx: use nano
[08:38] <osiris_> linxx, !nano
[08:38] <osiris_> lol
[08:38] <PirateHead> linxx: if the config file is owned by root, use sudo nano
[08:38] <linxx> so nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf?
[08:38] <holotone> vox754: thanks!
[08:38] <bulmer> Noiano: i have not used it in such a way before, so maybe you can man arp
[08:38] <Lavwere> I get "The file u/boot/grub/stage1 not read correctly." as answer to "sudo grub-install --root-directory=u /dev/sda1", where u is /dev/sda, which is the EFI partition
[08:38] <Noiano> bulmer: thanks....
[08:38] <osiris_> linxx, Sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:38] <FreonTrip> I'd like to learn about others' experiences with 3D desktop compositing.
[08:38] <pokoko> PirateHead, wait up
[08:38] <Lavwere> FreonTrip: do you know if there is a channel for Ubuntu on apple hardware?
[08:39] <linxx> ok that's awesome and how do i save it
[08:39] <osiris_> ctrl + o
[08:39] <FreonTrip> Lavwere:  PPC or x86?
[08:39] <Lavwere> FreonTrip: x86, imac 20"
[08:39] <linxx> i messede up my monitor driver's ID and ineed to change it back and save the xorg file so i can see again
[08:39] <FreonTrip> Lavwere:  Let me check for you.
[08:39] <linxx> so how do i save
[08:39] <PirateHead> pokoko: there is also a madwifi folder in my new kernel folder, but it is empty. There are no .ko files in it.
[08:39] <linxx> what's the command once i've edited it
[08:39] <osiris_> linxx, Ctrl and o
[08:39] <holotone> actually, it looks like that how-to is only for .rar files. My problem is with multi-part rar files (ie. foo.r00, foo.r01, etc...)
[08:39] <PirateHead> vox754: I think you are on the right track here. =D
[08:39] <linxx> wow thank you so much
[08:39] <osiris_> linxx, No problem
[08:40] <Lavwere> FreonTrip: thanks.
[08:41] <Seb1> does Ndiswrapper come with the default ubuntu installation?
[08:41] <PirateHead> vox754, pokoko: should I try compiling madwifi from source, or should I try copying the .ko files from the old kernel?
[08:41] <pokoko> PirateHead, look there -> /lib/modules/2.6.<your_current_kernel>/kernel/drivers/net/wireless
[08:41] <FreonTrip> Lavwere:  Not finding terribly much; you may want to take a quick poke through the Ubuntu forums.  I'll also look into grub diagnostics really fast.
[08:41] <vox754> PirateHead, usually when you get something from source it gets compiled against specific kernel headers, so the modules get correctly installed. I would say you need to do exactly what you did in the first place to get your card working, or maybe just copying the .ko will solve it.
[08:41] <pokoko> PirateHead, you could do that
[08:42] <PirateHead> Seb1: it does not.
[08:42] <Lavwere> FreonTrip: ok, I'm searching the forums now
[08:42] <pokoko> vox754, true but just trying luck. because the compiled kernel can be same.
[08:42] <zebras> I'm having some load issues with a new install of 6.10 amd64, it seems the 1gig of ram is being used as is swap yet a top ordered by memory the res column only adds up to a few hundred meg.  Any help with what is using the resource - top at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15836/
[08:42] <vox754> Seb1, PirateHead I think it is included ndiswrapper, but not installed by default
[08:42] <sorcerer> umm guys i connected my usb camera into my computer how do opedn it to view the pictures inside and copy them over i dont see it mounted ?
[08:43] <Seb1> hmm, so how can i install it?
[08:43] <PirateHead> sorcerer: does the gthumb importer come up? Make sure your camera is turned on, of course.
[08:43] <Bost> guys do you know how to open a port on remote machine through ssh?
[08:43] <knapp> Is there a command to change the screen resolution from the terminal?
[08:44] <pokoko> Bost, ssh remot_user@remotemachine
[08:44] <vox754> Seb1, it is better if you could tell which card you use. There may be a native linux driver so you wouldn't need ndiswrapper
[08:44] <bulmer> Bost: you have access to the remote machine to open a port
[08:44] <pokoko> Bost, that will get you access to remote machine through ssh if everything is correctly installed
[08:44] <sorcerer> umm its l like in a cradle
[08:44] <sorcerer> and its pluged in '
[08:44] <sorcerer> nothing shows up
[08:45] <pokoko> sorcerer, is it usb ?
[08:45] <bulmer> sorcerer: it has a memory in it?
[08:45] <Bost> bulmer: pokoko yea I have ssh connection (port 22) but I need to open 5901 for vnc
[08:45] <linxx> osiris, i owe you alot man.  Thanks again.  worked and now my monitor is back! : )
[08:45] <sorcerer> yup
[08:45] <sorcerer> yup
[08:45] <vox754> zebras, don't use the 64 bit distribution for desktop, the 32 bit is fine
[08:45] <sorcerer> its my gf camera .. i wanna import some pics
[08:45] <Seb1> I'm trying to follow the forums guide "HOWTO: Dell Inspiron E1505 Wireless (Broadcom 1390 WLAN)" but my problem is without WLan I don't have a direct internet connection
[08:45] <pokoko> sorcerer, "lsusb" please and see that your camera device shows up
[08:45] <sorcerer> its a sony cybershot if that helps
[08:45] <pokoko> Bost, don't know about vnc
[08:45] <bulmer> Bost: does the remote have a firewall? you proly need to open it for that
[08:46] <sorcerer> pokoko: lsusb in the terminal
[08:46] <bulmer> Bost: or you can try tunnelling through

[08:46] <Bost> bulmer: yea the remote HAS firewall and I need to open it but I dunno the command for it
[08:46] <zebras> vox754 it is a server, dual core opteron - just an internal www development one.
[08:46] <vox754> zebras, you are the man then
[08:47] <bulmer> Bost tell you what, i have been using nxclient, it is very nice, and it requires ssh enabled as minimum
[08:47] <b14ck73425> okay i just added a hard drive and i cant write to it and it wont let me change permissions
[08:47] <FreonTrip> Lavwere:  Do you have any reason to believe that Grub didn't install?
[08:47] <bulmer> Bost you can download the nx client free
[08:47] <sontek> Whats a console bandwidth monitor?
[08:47] <Powerking89670> a bandwith monitor thats displayed on the console :p
[08:47] <zebras> vox754 - am struggling to see the performance issue, any pointers?
[08:47] <Lavwere> FreonTrip: the page http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/UbuntuOnApple reccommends that step, as needed
[08:48] <Powerking89670> or a monitor for console bandwith
