[11:53] <huwenfeng> maybe, but that's not an emergency
[11:53] <huwenfeng> you got lots of time ahead of you ,
[11:53] <huwenfeng> is that right?
[11:54] <NthDegree> prakash_621, I never found it 100% easy at first
[11:54] <Maveas> prakash_621: yeah, it's difficult for everyone who is new to linux :)
[11:54] <prakash_621> Yeah but i dont know where to start
[11:54] <NthDegree> prakash_621, look around the forums
[11:54] <sdlwof> isn't 8.10 released yet?
[11:54] <orgthingy> my webcam doesnt work
[11:54] <orgthingy> my webcam doesnt work!!
[11:54] <Maveas> sdlwof: it is
[11:54] <melodie_> hi prakash_621
[11:54] <Ayabara> anyone know of a tool/script I can use to remove iptc keywords from a bunch of pictures?
[11:54] <orgthingy> (it did in older kernel)
[11:54] <melodie_> where are you from ?
[11:54] <NthDegree> orgthingy, use the older kernel then
[11:55] <dns53> sdlwof it was released a few weeks ago
[11:55] <orgthingy> NthDegree : how? from Grub?
[11:55] <prakash_621> Yes melodie !!!
[11:55] <melodie_> :)
[11:55] <sdlwof> update manager isn't regonizing it..
[11:55] <NthDegree> orgthingy, if it's available yes
[11:55] <melodie_> prakash_621, if you wish a few advices to see where to start ?
[11:55] <kaan22> yes..
[11:56] <sdlwof> could i use apt-get?
[11:56] <melodie_> prakash_621, I've got about 5 to 10 minutes available now
[11:56] <prakash_621> Yes melodie where to start ubuntu ?
[11:56] <melodie_> is it installed ?
[11:56] <prakash_621> Yes melodie
[11:56] <sdlwof> dns53, could i use apt-get to get 8.10? or should i use update manager?
[11:56] <melodie_> good
[11:57] <melodie_> who installed it, was it you ?
[11:57] <prakash_621> Yes
[11:57] <Fougner> sdlwof, try updatemanager
[11:57] <dns53> sdlwof you could change your sources to intrepid, the update manager does something like this
[11:57] <melodie_> good, did you see what the repositories and package manager are ?
[11:57] <prakash_621> Only One CD i got it from canonical free cd from netherland
[11:57] <Fougner> prakash_621, I'm available too, if you want some help
[11:58] <sdlwof> Fougner, dns53 updatemanager does not give me the option to update to intrepid.
[11:58] <prakash_621> No melodie i didnt see that...when i installed ...
[11:58] <melodie_> I think learning to install uninstall and keep distro up to date is a good start. do you approve ?
[11:58] <dns53> sdlwof you need to enable release upgrades, let me check
[11:58] <prakash_621> I think yes. melodie
[11:59] <Fougner> sdlwof, "software sources"
[11:59] <melodie_> ok prakash_621 I'll get a few pages for you
[11:59] <prakash_621> how to uninstall a software in shell ? i know how to do it in gui. but how is that in bash shell ? melodie
[11:59] <Fougner> sdlwof, under the Synaptic
[11:59] <dns53> sdlwof yes software sources, updates, release upgrades
[11:59] <melodie_> prakash_621, here : https://help.ubuntu.com/8.10/index.html
[11:59] <Fougner> prakash_621, apt-get remove package
[12:00] <prakash_621> Oh Thanks Fougner
[12:00] <melodie_> prakash_621, and after that : https://help.ubuntu.com/community
[12:00] <sdlwof> dns53, pre=-release upgrades?
[12:00] <melodie_> Fougner, wait, it does not explain how to deal with the repositories !
[12:00] <melodie_> prakash_621, is brand new, and needs to know a little more to start with
[12:01] <Fougner> melodie_, oh sorry
[12:01] <melodie_> and first, where to documentation stands
[12:01] <lorenzosu> Where can I view/edit the processes/application launched a t startup?
[12:01] <dns53> sdlwof just releases
[12:01] <melodie_> prakash_621, the repositories are distant servers where applications and updates come from
[12:01] <Fougner> prakash_621, probably the best thing to do is some reading.. so you know how things "work" =)
[12:01] <melodie_> you can use command line tools or graphic tool name Synaptic to contact the servers
[12:02] <melodie_> Fougner, I just gave him the official documentation links ! ^^
[12:02] <melodie_> lol
[12:02] <Flannel> !components | prakash_621 (you'll get to this eventually anyway, but if you miss it)
[12:02] <sdlwof> in the updates tab, i see ubuntu updates; automatic updates, relase upgrades. under ubuntu updates, i see important, recommended, pre-release, and unsupported.
[12:03] <sdlwof> i don't see only a 'releases'
[12:03] <Fougner> sdlwof, look at the bottom
[12:03]  * melodie_ don't like bots that much...
[12:03] <sporkboy> is there a way I can make closing my lid not shut off screen1 (but still shut off screen0)?
[12:03] <overdub> what is "auto eth0"?
[12:03] <sdlwof> there's Never, Normal releases, long term supported.
[12:03] <sdlwof> do you mean "normal releases" instead of 'releases"/
[12:03] <Fougner> sdlwof, which setting is it now?
[12:04] <sdlwof> Fougner, normal releases. There is no option for 'releases'
[12:04] <dns53> sdlwof yes normal releases are the 6 monthly releases, the long term are every 18 months
[12:04] <Fougner> hm
[12:04] <overdub> when I set up networking from command line, the little icon on the top of the screen thinks i'm disconnected
[12:05] <sdlwof> menu options 'normal releases' and 'releases' are different.
[12:05] <sdlwof> be specific man, there's some dumb mofo's in here.
[12:05] <overdub> when i set up network using the pokey little GUI, my DNS is hosed
[12:05] <melodie_> overdub, an automatic option to make eth0 network interface appear
[12:05] <UbuntuUser> ni ni
[12:05] <melodie_> overdub, what does "hosed" mean ?
[12:05] <overdub> hosed is slang for not working
[12:05] <scientes> how do i search a man page?
[12:06] <sdlwof> scientes, /searchstring
[12:06] <melodie_> overdub, try to find a doc to wicd and install it, then try to use it.
[12:06] <scientes> thx sdlwof
[12:06] <overdub> ok, thanks for the info melodie_
[12:06] <sdlwof> scientes, :# hops to line#
[12:07] <akonkwa> i'm having trouble playing mkv files in vlc, can anyone help?
[12:07] <sdlwof> scientes, also after /searchstring keep pushing n to go through the document
[12:07] <melodie_> overdub, it does not belong to official packages, you have to add the repo in your sources.list
[12:07] <Lo_> where do I view/edit startup processes/programmes?
[12:07] <wookienz> can i install from live cd onto a striped raid array which contains windows? without wiping windows?
[12:08] <Fougner> Lo_, sessions? =)
[12:08] <melodie_> overdub, hum, i'm a little sleepy : was it a wifi matter ?
[12:08] <overdub> melodie_: I wonder why the obscurity for such a common thing as having a network connection?
[12:08] <Fougner> Lo_, System->settings->sessions
[12:08] <melodie_> overdub, was it a wifi problem or not at all ?
[12:08] <kieko> unpack it somewhere and run the glGo.install script. Question: Can someone tell me how to run this install.script? ./install.sh isn't doing it
[12:08] <overdub> this is not a wifi connection
[12:08] <melodie_> forget wicd then
[12:09] <sdlwof> haha, you people, iwconfig
[12:09] <melodie_> do you have a special network card ?
[12:09] <Lo_> Fougner, Thank you
[12:09] <kieko> unpack it somewhere and run the glGo.install script.
[12:09] <overdub> I'm going to poke around a bit more, there must be something I'm missing here
[12:09] <melodie_> overdub,
[12:09] <melodie_> do you have a special network card ?
[12:09] <kieko> that's what it says; but it doesn't explain how to 'run' it
[12:09] <overdub> melodie_: no, same one I've used with Linux for years
[12:09] <scion> try to type 'sh install.sh'
[12:10] <melodie_> overdub, I'm just discovering the new Ubuntu... what to say ?
[12:10] <overdub> oh, wait, i'm wrong, this is an on board card
[12:10] <Fougner> xD
[12:10] <melodie_> overdub, check if no second driver messes up with the right one then
[12:10] <overdub> but it does work just fine when I set it up from command line
[12:10] <melodie_> overdub, just check
[12:11] <melodie_> overdub, take a look at the return from 'lsmod' and if two network card drivers appear, one must be removed and blacklisted
[12:11] <overdub> connects just fine doing ifconfig, route add default gw . . . etc
[12:11] <kpuljek> where in ubuntu 8.10 i can find the replacement for this screen: http://www.debianadmin.com/images/network/6.png
[12:12] <kpuljek> they've abandoned this tool, and I can't make my way through the new ones :|
[12:12] <overdub> but the icon on the menu bar shows me as offline
[12:12] <melodie_> overdub, yes, but when do you loose the connexion ?
[12:12] <aira> ?
[12:12] <melodie_> overdub, at reboot, else ?
[12:12] <kieko> i have a glGo.install to run. Can someone tell me how?
[12:12] <overdub> i don't even think it drops, but the icon shows me offline when i'm online is all
[12:12] <Fougner> kieko, tried "sh install.sg?"
[12:12] <oskar-> kpuljek, right click on the network icon and select something like "edit connections"
[12:12] <kieko> Fougner, no
[12:13] <kieko> Fougner, just like that?
[12:13] <melodie_> overdub, then you may want to remove the icon. it won't bother you further. ;)
[12:13] <overdub> and then when I try to set it up using "auto eth0", my DNS won't resolve
[12:13] <Fougner> kieko, what is this script?
[12:13] <overdub> melodie_: hehe, might just come to that
[12:13] <kieko> Fougner, it is a go application from Panda IGS
[12:13] <kpuljek> oskar-: i've been there, but i really can't make out where exactly to set up the static ip and dns servers :S
[12:13] <scion> kieko: either chmod +x file.sh or sh file.sh
[12:13] <Fougner> overdub, if you're behind a router, try to set /etc/resolve.conf to the right DNS-server
[12:13] <kieko> Fougner, in terminal i have a green glGo.install file
[12:14] <overdub> Fougner: it already is, when I set it up manually (at command line)
[12:14] <melodie_> Fougner, he does not have a connexion problem, but a icon network message problem
[12:14] <Fougner> sorry =D
[12:14] <melodie_> overdub, if you don't set it up manually, does it connect just after boot ?
[12:14] <Fougner> kieko, well that's kinda weird
[12:14] <overdub> there was no /etc/resolve.conf file, i had to make it
[12:15] <Fougner> overdub, whaaat
[12:15] <oskar-> kpuljek, ok, the first tab in the then opening windows should be called something like "cable connections", then there should be connection entries like "Auto eth0" or similar. select and edit them
[12:15] <melodie_> overdub, !
[12:15] <overdub> melodie_: i've not tried to see if it works after reboot
[12:15] <melodie_> overdub, no /etc/resolve.conf but /etc/resolv.conf !!!
[12:15] <overdub> my typo
[12:15] <melodie_> ok
[12:15] <dns53> overdub network manager usually generates one from dhcp so it is best not to touch it
[12:15] <melodie_> what did you put in there ?
[12:15] <overdub> meant /etc/resolv.conf
[12:15] <Bupsss> can anyone help me? i dont get the location for the weather anymore
[12:16] <Bupsss> it disappears after i reboot
[12:16] <melodie_> Bupsss, do you have a windows at home ?
[12:16] <overdub> dns53: but i'm connecting static, no DHCP
[12:16] <kieko> Fougner, http://www.pandanet.co.jp/English/glgo/Install.txt
[12:16] <dns53> Bupsss wait a few minutes with your network connected
[12:16] <melodie_> overdub, ok
[12:16] <kieko> Fougner, the instructions are very vague
[12:16] <kpuljek> oskar-: okay, found it. just one more question - why does it change my subnet mask to 24 everytime i try to enter it?
[12:16] <Bupsss> melodie_, yes, why?
[12:16] <overdub> going to reboot and see if that sets things strait
[12:16] <melodie_> overdub, what is written in /etc/network/interfaces ?
[12:16] <oskar-> kpuljek, do you enter <IP_ADDRESS>? ;)
[12:16] <Fougner> kieko, look under windows then ;)
[12:17] <Bupsss> dns53 i dont have the city in the list anymore
[12:17] <kpuljek> oskar-: yes
[12:17] <melodie_> Bupsss, look at your window you know the weather. ;)
[12:17] <Bupsss> -.-
[12:17] <melodie_> overdub,
[12:17] <overdub> melodie_: i don't see eth0 there
[12:17] <dns53> Bupsss is the locations hidden, is there a map?
[12:17] <Fougner> kieko, is there a script named "glGo.install" somewhere?
[12:17] <scion> kieko: open the glo.install script and check the top first line
[12:17] <oskar-> kpuljek, it means the same, don't worry
[12:17] <overdub> only loopback
[12:17] <scion> see what the script languiage
[12:17] <scion> is
[12:17] <melodie_> booting does not put things straight, it allows to see if the network config holds !
[12:17] <Bupsss> dns53, i see the location map empty, if i click edit, the list is empty
[12:17] <Bupsss> i had 2 cities
[12:17] <scion> it may be python, perl, bash, sh
[12:18] <kpuljek> oskar-: oh, yes... that makes sense... if the want to confuse newcomers even more :P :) thank you
[12:18] <melodie_> overdub, GNU/Linux is not Windows
[12:18] <Bupsss> if i set it again it works, but after reboot, it disappears
[12:18] <overdub> melodie_: yes, which would be in my mind setting things strait
[12:18] <overdub> melodie_: and thankfully so :)
[12:18] <melodie_> overdub, :)
[12:18] <Fougner> kieko, try writing "file glGo.install"
[12:19] <scion> you should be able to chmod +x glGo.install
[12:19] <scion> and then ./glGo.install
[12:19]  * overdub wanders off to go poke, prod, and ponder
[12:20] <staar2> how to clean up of unused programs ?
[12:20] <scion> if its green it means its +x already
[12:20] <scion> iirc
[12:20] <oskar-> staar2, sudo apt-get autoremove
[12:21] <mrwes> re
[12:21] <scion> re
[12:21] <mrwes> moving sucks
[12:21] <mrwes> heh
[12:21] <Mal3ko> when we install ubuntu server, is iptables installed by default?
[12:22] <mrwes> I've added the launchpad repos for OO 3, but I'm not getting any prompts to install
[12:22] <varun> =O guys my usplash dosnt seem to work anymore
[12:22] <Fougner> kieko, why don't you try the .deb installer?
[12:22] <Flannel> Mal3ko: yes
[12:22] <varun> it dosnt load when i boot
[12:22] <kieko> Fougner, i had trouble withthat too... thought tar.gz route would be more solid
[12:22] <Fougner> varun, oh my god what have you done? =O =O
[12:23] <scion> kieko: what happens when you do ./glGo.install
[12:23] <Fougner> kieko, haha okay, that's weird
[12:23] <mrwes> Anyone on 8.10 installed openoffice 3 via the launchpad repos?
[12:23] <Flannel> mrwes: The PPA has been taken offline due to some issues, the maintainer says he should have it up and working again sometime early next week.
[12:23] <coax> kieko: can you read whagt im saying?
[12:23] <kieko> scion, seems to have installed - thx.. but now i get:

[12:27] <Fougner> kieko, but that will be the best way to get it to work =)
[12:27] <oskar-> yes, sounds much cleaner than trying until it seems to work
[12:27] <coax> kieko: ok, let us know if there are any other issues
[12:27] <kieko> coax, cheers

[12:38] <Fougner> nope
[12:39] <Fougner> why would someone ping your system? =)
[12:39] <prakash_621> may be to search security vulnerability right ?
[12:39] <mrwes> ping -f IP ADDRESS
[12:39] <MarZau> set your router not to reply to ICMP ping requests
[12:39] <coax> refresh your ip is a simple solution
[12:39] <prakash_621> how to do that in linux coax ?
[12:40] <ender_> buenas
[12:40] <mrwes> guten morgen
[12:40] <ender_> alguien de aqui tiene idea de java?
[12:40] <oskar-> prakash_621, if you only receive icmp echo request, don't worry. but you can set net.ipv4.icmp_echo_ignore_all using sysctl (see manpage and /etc/sysctl.conf and /etc/sysctl.d)

[12:50] <prakash_621> i am wondering how without .exe files applications are executed in linux. can some one have idea ?
[12:50] <coax> zer0__: take it easy
[12:50] <coax> what sound card do you have?
[12:50] <zer0__> nvidia
[12:50] <chfwiggum> gbear14275: then use console
[12:50] <dns53> coax under network list, click edit and remove the channel
[12:50] <oskar-> zer0__, try: sudo modprobe pcspkr
[12:51] <gbear14275> chfwiggum: this is fine, just wanted to make sure it was normal
[12:51] <linuxnoop> wher can i download crossover
[12:51] <zer0__> nothing happen
[12:51] <coax> dns53: thanks
[12:51] <transporter> oskar: what do i do in the incoming and outgoing servers in the setup for thunderbird free hotmail account
[12:52] <transporter> oskar: i installed the package now what?
[12:52] <MarZau> prakash_621: try wine, unfortunately cedega is the only one you can still download free.
[12:52] <linuxnoop> wher can i download crossover
[12:52] <oskar-> zer0__, try it on a virtual console, ctrl+alt+f1, login, type "something" and press tab two times
[12:53] <prakash_621> how is the application executed in linux. What extension is the executable files in linux. ????
[12:53] <zer0__> then?
[12:53] <Fougner> prakash_621, then don't have on
[12:53] <Fougner> one*
[12:54] <kelli> what program can i use to send pics you people on "windows"-yak
[12:54] <prakash_621> i cant understand fougner ?
[12:54] <oskar-> zer0__, second: open audio (maybe called "sound") properties, Sounds, "Play alert sounds"
[12:54] <MarZau> .py .sh .etc... linux programs have alot of extensions
[12:54] <Fougner> as far as I know, it's located in different directories
[12:54] <coax> prakash_621:  the extension is irrelevant
[12:54] <chfwiggum> prakash_621: thers no such thing as exe in linux
[12:54] <prakash_621> then how is it executing ????????????
[12:54] <prakash_621> i am wondering !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
[12:54] <coax> what are you trying to execute?
[12:54] <Fougner> prakash_621, ./file.to.execute.sh
[12:55] <zer0__> volume control? /volume preference??
[12:55] <satrujeet> somebody there to help me with wireless connections ???
[12:55] <satrujeet> :-D
[12:55] <Fougner> !questions | satrujeet,
[12:55] <prakash_621> No, actually, the applications installed is not an .exe file format as like windows. i am wondering how is all the application which doesnt have .exe file extension is executed in linux.
[12:56] <transporter> can somebody please tell me what am i supposed to write in the incoming and outgoing server for a free hotmail account in thunderbird
[12:56] <oskar-> zer0__, "gnome-sound-properties"
[12:56] <kelli> how can i send pic to someone on yahoo chat?
[12:56] <zer0__> need to find it
[12:56] <Fougner> prakash_621, just because of the .exe extension doesn't make it execuable, right?
[12:56] <chfwiggum> transporter: DEPENDS IF U LIKE POP OR IMAP
[12:57] <satrujeet> o i c..those are the rules.. So here I go...I installed ubuntu 8.10 , went for an update and discovered that my wireless is not working.. how do  restore it ???
[12:57] <oskar-> chfwiggum, he likes hot(web)mail ;)
[12:57] <coax> prakash_621: depending on the tyope of file, a script file needs to be +x for it to be executed alone, and an executable doesnt need an extension
[12:57] <chfwiggum> transporter: then google setupt hotmail pop account thunderbird
[12:57] <AdamDV> satrujeet: I do not believe you can, I may be wrong, but I don't think you can downgrade
[12:58] <satrujeet> ..fine but cud we fix it ??
[12:58] <prakash_621> Oh great. Thanks.
[12:58] <Niteye> UPDATE: sound works when i put in headphones, or my speakers in the headphone jack, but not when i connect it to the back
[12:58] <coax> windows works in peculiar ways
[12:58] <prakash_621> Thanks Coax, and Fougner
[12:58] <AdamDV> satrujeet: cud u use grmr?
[12:58] <coax> with the .exe, .bat
[12:58] <coax> etc
[12:58] <Fougner> prakash_621, you're welcome =)
[12:58] <AdamDV> :D
[12:58] <coax> in linux no file is identified by the extension, only for vanity purposes
[12:58] <Fougner> satrujeet, which wireless do you haev?
[12:58] <satrujeet> now i am very new to linux.. so wont follow jargons..whats grmr??
[12:58] <coax> vanity/comprehension
[12:59] <jae686> a file is only executable if you set its permissions to do so
[12:59] <satrujeet> its a wireless modem provided by my ISP..
[12:59] <Fougner> satrujeet, oh..
[12:59] <AdamDV> satrujeet: It helps if you could use the correct grammer and not abreiviate things. THanks :D
[12:59] <AdamDV> satrujeet: Do you know the model?
[12:59] <Fougner> Adam-, you mean ISP ? ;)
[12:59] <aira> hi
[12:59] <aira> hi
[13:00] <coax> hullo
[13:00] <Fougner> aira, hi and hi =)

[13:00] <Fougner> satrujeet, of the modem
[13:00] <Maveas> hi^3
[13:00] <Maveas> :)
[13:00] <lenin> hello all
[13:00] <oskar-> zer0__, one addition: if you want "pcspkr" to be loaded at each system startup, then add it in one line to the file /etc/modules
[13:01] <lenin> i have a graphic problem after update to intrepid ibex
[13:01] <satrujeet> SIEMENS SL2_141 is the modem's model
[13:01] <lenin> can anyone help me?
[13:01] <coax> prakash_621: although sometimes an application is hardcoded to read say lala.conf in which case you might need the .conf extension for the app to see it
[13:01] <Fougner> !questions | lenin
[13:02] <EffElevun> hey
[13:02] <Fougner> lenin, probably there is a problem with the drivers
[13:02] <prakash_621> Oh. Ok. coax. If i need to start firewall application (GUI) when my system starts, what should i do coax ?
[13:02] <zer0__> coax,i cant find where gnome sound properties located.. :(
[13:02] <MarZau> lenin, ati or nvidia.. or another...
[13:02] <lenin> hello all. i have a problem after update to intrepid ibex. look this screenshot: http://img397.imageshack.us/my.php?image=errorgraphicsdb5.png ; all works fine, but when programs are opened i get this lines and distorsion in the monitor.
[13:02] <oskar-> zer0__, open a terminal an write in the command i gave you...  "gnome-sound-properties"
[13:02] <Fougner> prakash_621, edit the sessions.. System->settings->sessions
[13:02] <coax> prakash_621:  sorry im not familiar with that
[13:02] <EffElevun> zero under the system > preferences > sound
[13:03] <adilson> hi i cant start x anymore i did the latest update, restarted but had  powerfailure now whenever I restart t seems X doesnt start, can someone help me please?
[13:03] <EffElevun> adilson - reconfigure your xorg.conf file
[13:03] <zer0__> lol..it sound preference.i already open it.. btw, what next coax?
[13:03] <coax> prakash_621: it's better to not ask someone directly, maybe someone else has the answer
[13:03] <lenin> Marzau: Intel graphic card. It's a Toshiba laptop
[13:03] <ziroday`> adilson: so you're saying during an update there was a power failure and so xorg didn't upgrade properly?
[13:04] <xk001> adilson, using ext2 or ext3 ?
[13:04] <adilson> ziroday, after the update i restarted but when i was on the gdm screen had a power failure
[13:04] <adilson> xk001, jfs
[13:04] <xk001> reconfigure xorg and use ext3 to prevent problems in xorg.
[13:05] <prakash_621> Fougner, i dont know where this firestarted is installed ? how to find that ?
[13:05] <ziroday`> adilson: okay, try do sudo dpkg --configure -a
[13:05] <zer0__> what next coax?
[13:05] <MarZau> lenin , im not familiar with intel under linux, my first guess would be to turn compiz off
[13:05] <Fougner> prakash_621, very often, you just type "name-of-the-app" in the terminal
[13:05] <lenin> MarZau , Compiz is turned off. Did you see the screenshot?
[13:06] <MarZau> yes definitely looks like a driver issue, but don't know why its doing that sry
[13:06] <Fougner> prakash_621, just try "firestarter" in the terminal
[13:07] <adilson> ziroday, im getting unable to access dpkg status, a lot of the syystem files have locked to read nly and i think my .Xauthority got messed up as well
[13:07] <flaco> hello... I don't know waht happend, but he numeric keyboard does not work, anyone knows how to enable...?
[13:07] <adilson> xk001, hw do i configure xorg?
[13:07] <zer0__> where is coax????
[13:07] <xk001> 1 sec
[13:08] <SOURdiesel> lenin: are you having video issues with compiz running?
[13:08] <prakash_621> No Fougner, i want to add firestarter in the startup programs, it asks me the location of the program.
[13:08] <xk001> use dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[13:09] <xk001> install linux using ext to prevent those errors in general if power goes off again. i used to used ext2 and get that problem
[13:09] <xk001> *use
[13:09] <xk001> *ext3
[13:09] <xk001> my damn writing xD
[13:09] <lenin> SOURdiesel , i turned off for this reason. Compiz works fine, but sometimes the application bar crashes
[13:10] <prakash_621> how to find the location of the softwares installed ????

[13:34] <amikrop> Hello. I have autoloing enabled, and when I restart the X server with Ctrl-Alt-Backspace, I get a "Authentication Failed" message window at the login screen, and when I press OK it re-appears immediately. So, I can't press on anything, and the only thing I can do is violently switch the PC off.
[13:34] <zer0__> gapo?
[13:34] <oskar-> KR-data, a normal usb mass storage device should work without problems... is your's a special one?

[13:34] <amikrop> I think that is quite unacceptable.

[13:35] <mcscruff> has anyone just upgraded the kernel and been given white screen on reboot?
[13:35] <Mohammad[B]> how i can convert .flv files to other formats like .ogg or .mpg (with which software i can?)
[13:35] <chfwiggum> amikrop: first u dont have to rebot. press alt+ctrl+f1 then login as user and enter startx
[13:35] <Gallez> Mohammad: avidemux perhaps
[13:36] <amikrop> I have the silly autologin-pam-keyring trick enabled (which doesn't work anyway). I don't know if this is related.
[13:36] <Defrysk> ffmpeg
[13:36] <Mohammad[B]> Gallez, avidemux?!
[13:36] <Gallez> yes
[13:36] <oskar-> KR-data, is there maybe more output of dmesg, where the device file is mentioned?  or can you identify the drive in the output of "cat /proc/partitions"?
[13:36] <bimmax> Gallez, there you are I knew it will ask you that. it a little bit hard but I managed to have all that stuff work , search via google and you will certainly get some help there, all the best
[13:36] <amikrop> chfwiggum: OK. What can I do? This is an unacceptable bug for a 21th OS that tries to compete with Windows and MacOS.
[13:37] <scientes> how do i make all print jobs print in reverse order? so that the pages are in the right order after its been printed?
[13:37] <Mohammad[B]> thanks all !

[13:37] <amikrop> * 21 century
[13:37] <chfwiggum> amikrop: its not a bug.u got ur settings wrong.but u certainly can use macosx or M$
[13:38] <KR-data> oskar-, I wouldn't be able to find anything in proc/partitions as long as the kernel doesn't load it, and there's no more info from dmesg :(
[13:38] <stinger_au> Can some one help me out with kernels and source - think I have something miss matched, my uname -a is 2.6.22-15-generic and linux -> linux-source-2.6.17
[13:38] <oskar-> KR-data, that's right...
[13:39] <amikrop> chfwiggum: My settings wrong? OK, tell me how to fix them
[13:39] <anabolix> anyone know how to put the garbage bin back on the desktop? i removed by accident and now i cant get it back
[13:39] <amikrop> I don't think anything is wrong
[13:39] <bimmax> Gallez, search. download and install all that it asks, like gettext, as I have said it will be a little bit strenous but just try first, unfortunately I can rememer where exactly I got them
[13:40] <oskar-> KR-data, this seems similar to your problem: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/256767   look also at the last post

[13:43] <Lu6cifer> In trying to setup GRUB, I used commands such as, "find /boot/grub/stage1," and root (hd 0, 5) or setup (hd0), but it just said partition doesn't exist, or file not found. But I checked Gparted--the partitions are definitely there
[13:43] <Gallez> bazhang: i've got audacious right now (couldn't get through compiling xmms), it's unbearably slow
[13:43] <Gallez> bimmax: i'll give it a try
[13:44] <Lu6cifer> any ideas?

[13:45] <Lu6cifer> 8.10
[13:46] <l0newolf> is there a way to back up specific mouse themes?  found one I really like in another distro but want to use in ubuntu
[13:47] <bimmax> Lu6cifer, gut boot from the cd/dvd and then use it as live cd and from there you can tweak the GRUb
[13:47] <Lu6cifer> Yea, I tried that, but all I got were error messages
[13:48] <bimmax> Lu6cifer, when do you get errors?
[13:48] <djiezes> Lu6cifer: when doing "root(hd0, " try your tab key , grub should give you all partitions it can boot.
[13:48] <Lu6cifer> ok
[13:48] <Lu6cifer> Should the GRUB files be under /boot ?
[13:48] <djiezes> under /boot/grub
[13:49] <Lu6cifer> Because I actually checked the 8.10 partition's /boot dir
[13:49] <Lu6cifer> and I don't think I fond any GRUB
[13:49] <Lu6cifer> files
[13:49] <djiezes> Lu6cifer:  and remember grub starts counting at 0 . so sda5 would be hd0,4

[13:53] <ikonia> l0newolf: depends where the other distro stores tham
[13:53] <satrujeet> using synaptics
[13:53] <ikonia> satrujeet: you untar it and read the instructions inside it

[13:53] <Lo_> Hi all on my personal laptop I have no "real" graphics adapter, so sadly no compiz-fusion... One plug-in I really miss in terms of functionality is the widget layer plug-in (F9)... anyone know of a "non-compiz" alternative/similar app?
[13:53] <sdflw> everytime my mom uses her computer, she drags and f's up all the icons and the taskbars, etc. to the point i need to remove them all, and redo it to get it organized again. it's because she's sloppy with mouse-clicks and mouse dragging. how can i totally lock it down so she can't accidently drag and goof things up?
[13:54] <l0newolf> ikonia: I see, if I can find that out what should I do?
[13:54] <liuzhongwei_> 新手误入。。。。
[13:54] <chfwiggum> satrujeet: unpack it and read the installation and readme
[13:54] <ikonia> l0newolf: tar them up and move them over
[13:54] <bazhang> liuzhongwei_, /j #ubuntu-cn
[13:54] <l0newolf> ikonia: I've tried it complains about links
[13:54] <ikonia> sdflw: she "messes up" not "f's" up - you don't need to imply swearing
[13:54] <ikonia> l0newolf: how can you have tried when you don't know where it's stored
[13:54] <Jmmg0008> hello guys, I  have a problem with ndiswrapper, when I instaled ndiswrapper to use net8185 windows driver, the wireless lan was disable
[13:54] <l0newolf> ikonia: the png icons aren't in the folder, they're linked to somewhere else and
[13:55] <sdflw> ikonia, so how do i fix the 'messes ups?
[13:55] <CAsercan3> DCC SEND STARTKEYLOGGER 0 0 0
[13:55] <l0newolf> ikonia: I know where the icons folder is, not where the actual files are
[13:55] <sdflw> right cvlicking and locking the icons doesn't fix it
[13:55] <amikrop> satrujeet: $ sudo apt-get install checkinstall && tar -xzf foo.tar.gz && cd foo && ./configure && make && sudo checkinstall
[13:55] <l0newolf> sorry I didn't explain well enough
[13:55] <ikonia> l0newolf: follow the symlinks
[13:56] <amikrop> When I try to SVN update with RapidSVN, I am asked for my RSA key password. How can I ommit this?

[13:56] <Defrysk> sdflw, explain your mom how to reorganize it , and be friendly
[13:56] <Jmmg0008> I unistall ndiswrapper and undoing all change but wireless isn't enable
[13:56] <maverick340> any one know , when i right click a folder and mark it for sharing weather the entry gets added to smb.conf ?
[13:56] <sdflw> Defrysk, i've tried, it's the pills. she just can't use the mouse with any agile....
[13:56] <l0newolf> ikonia: if I follow the symlinks and copy them to the actual icon folder will that be enough to work?
[13:56] <sdflw> instead of a click or dclick, it's a 1/2 click and 1/2 drag, then that's the end of the program...
[13:56] <ikonia> l0newolf: depends, but should be
[13:57] <ikonia> sdflw: just make the Desktop dir read only
[13:57] <Defrysk> sdflw, what ikonia sais souns a smple solution
[13:57] <l0newolf> ikonia: understood, thanks for the info  :)
[13:57] <oskar-> maverick340, make a copy of your smb.conf, then share a folder and then "diff ~/smb.conf-copy /etc/samba/smb.conf"
[13:57] <echinos> I'm having a sound issue - I have a server install, and I put an ensoniq card in. dmesg shows it being recognized and the module is loaded, but aplay -l doesn't list the card (as per the sound troubleshooting page from ubottu)
[13:57] <sdflw> ikonia, it's not the desktop icons, it's the taskbar, clock, volume, drags it from the top to the left, etc.
[13:57] <ikonia> sdflw: make the dir read only so the changes can't be written too
[13:58] <echinos> I might not even have the sound system installed properly, but is that only alsa-base in a server install, or do I need all the pulseaudio stuff too?
[13:58] <sdflw> then she won't be able to add files to the desktop then?
[13:58] <ikonia> correct
[13:58] <maverick340> oskar-, whats does diff ~/smb.conf do ?
[13:58] <ikonia> she can add them to her home dir where they are meant to go
[13:58] <DavyZ> hi, whenever I watch streaming videos from the browser.. after I fullscreen the video it unmaximizes itself, can anyone tell me how this is happening..?
[13:59] <sdflw> !!! she needs to add icons. but i need to make the panels unmoveable.
[13:59] <oskar-> maverick340, diff shows differences between two files or two folders
[13:59] <sdflw> app/places/system is getting dragged to the left and right all the time.
[13:59] <Lo_> Hi all on my personal laptop I have no "real" graphics adapter, so sadly no compiz-fusion... One plug-in I really miss in terms of functionality is the widget layer plug-in (F9)... anyone know of a "non-compiz" alternative/similar app?
[13:59] <ikonia> sdflw: then drill down in the Desktop dir to make the specific files read only, OR use gconf to see if there is an option to lock the bars
[13:59] <nosto> can anyone help me with installing the intel 950gma driver that has hardware rendering instead of software?
[13:59] <maverick340> oskar , thanks
[13:59] <oskar-> maverick340, after that you know, if sharing a folder changes the smb.conf ;)
[13:59] <ikonia> nosto: thats a video card isn't it ?
[13:59] <Jmmg0008> Please, really I only need to know how I can to enable wireless card
[14:00] <sdflw> ikonia, gconf isn't in the menu
[14:01] <erUSUL> sdflw: right clicking on any applet of the panels gives an option to locl its position or unlock it
[14:01] <nosto> yes
[14:01] <ikonia> sdflw: it's a command
[14:01] <Maveas> Someone with a RT61 chipset wifi card?
[14:01] <ikonia> nosto: then you don't need a driver, the "intel" driver in xorg should work
[14:01] <YamYam> hi all
[14:01] <maverick340> no output for the diff command means no change right ?
[14:01] <YamYam> hi all
[14:01] <sdflw> erUSUL, i can lock the applets fine, she keeps dragging the taskbar itself all over the place
[14:01] <b4lu> tag
[14:02] <DavyZ> hi, whenever I watch streaming videos from the browser.. after I fullscreen the video it unmaximizes itself, can anyone tell me how this is happening?
[14:02] <sdflw> there's no lock for that, only expand, buttons, and arrows
[14:02] <nosto> well it doesn't when i use it for 3d rendering such as opengl
[14:02] <sdflw> ikonia, sudo apt-get install gconf; package not found
[14:02] <Maveas> Can I use a key-shortcut to open a terminal?
[14:02] <ikonia> nosto: most probably trying to use the i810 driver rather than the intel one
[14:02] <ikonia> sdflw: come on - do a little work for yourself, search for the exact package name
[14:03] <sdflw> i did, 'gconf'
[14:03] <sdflw> that's what you said, no?
[14:03] <bimmax> DavyZ, either you have a lower screen resolution or you graphics card cannot handle the resolution of the video, just a thought
[14:03] <Defrysk> sdflw, apt-cache search <foo>
[14:03] <nosto> ok ikonia how do i safely change video drivers without messing up my day :(
[14:04] <Lo_> Hi all on my personal laptop I have no "real" graphics adapter, so sadly no compiz-fusion... One plug-in I really miss in terms of functionality is the widget layer plug-in (F9)... anyone know of a "non-compiz" alternative/similar app?

[14:07] <oskar-> because if it is illegal, a criminal would never use it, so everyone is safe ;)  (in germany)

[14:18] <Kasle> bazhang: Hi there! When u told me to write aptitude install kubuntu-desktop, i installed KDE 3.5, when i was looking for 4.1. Do u know how to remove it and install KDE4.1?
[14:18] <bazhang> Kasle, you're using hardy?
[14:18] <Kasle> yes
[14:18] <bazhang> Kasle, my mistake for not asking
[14:19] <Kasle> bazhang: that's ok
[14:19] <bazhang> Kasle, should be kubuntu-kde4-desktop
[14:19] <Kasle> bazhang: aha
[14:19] <bluej> can I install jaunty packages in intrepid via apt-get?
[14:19] <vignesh>  hi all.. i am dual booting ubuntu and windows xp.. i mounted a ntfs partition using -o force since windows was not shut down properly.. then i copied a file from linux to the windows partition which was force mounted.. when i restart and get into windows im not able to see that file but the space is used up.. if i come back to linux and mount that partition again, it doesnt show that file but the space remains used up.. can someone tel me how to recover
[14:19] <vignesh> that file ??
[14:19] <erUSUL> bluej: no
[14:19] <bazhang> bluej, no
[14:19] <erUSUL> !mixing
[14:19] <Kasle> bazhang: do u know how to remove kubuntu?
[14:19] <bazhang> bluej, guaranteed breakage
[14:19] <bazhang> !puregnome | Kasle
[14:21] <bluej> bazhang: ok... jaunty contains an update package that I want
[14:21] <Acedip> can i perform a filesystem check now since it failed during the startup
[14:21] <Acedip> can i perform a filesystem check now since it failed during the startup
[14:21] <bluej> bazhang: getdeb/launchpad ppa's advisable?
[14:21] <bazhang> bluej, then you'll need to wait or update to the alpha (which is completely a terrible idea)
[14:21] <Kasle> bazhang: um... this toturial removes all kubuntu related things and then install ubuntu desktop...
[14:22] <aprilhare> i am looking to kill an application process at a particular time automatically. specifically, i want to kill transmission at 8 am. is there a simple way to do this?
[14:22] <jimcooncat> bluej: maybe with prevu http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=268687
[14:22] <bazhang> Kasle, you have gnome now?
[14:22] <Kasle> yes
[14:22] <Kasle> bazhang: ubuntu 8.04 hardy
[14:22] <bazhang> Kasle, and you want to remove gnome and kde and replace with kde4?
[14:23] <Kasle> bazhang: no. Remove the Kubuntu desktop. The rest i know
[14:23] <bakarat> i'm trying to do some X forwarding over ssh from a vm to the host, but it tends to be slow to the point of unusable
[14:23] <bakarat> any ways to fix this?
[14:24] <bazhang> Kasle, that link has a list of packages you need to sudo apt-get remove
[14:24] <Frogzoo> aprilhare: maybe there's a var/run - kill -TERM `cat /var/run/###`
[14:24] <Rameez> hmm
[14:24] <NewHandFromCN> bazhang: you where come ?
[14:24] <bazhang> Kasle, and as you already have gnome, then adding kde4 will fix you right up when that is finished
[14:24] <Frogzoo> bakarat: vmware's networking is slooowww
[14:24] <bakarat> Frogzoo, using virtualbox
[14:25] <Kasle> bazhang: So, If i install KDE4 that wil replace Kubuntu desktop?
[14:25] <bazhang> Kasle, you then choose from the login window which session you want
[14:25] <Kasle> bazhang: i know
[14:25] <bazhang> Kasle, you need to follow the instructions on that link; alternately an upgrade to intrepid will do it all for you.
[14:26] <Rameez> where is the nick list of xchat?
[14:26] <Kasle> bazhang: Yea, but the instructions is removing everything, and then installing ubuntu-desktop... i allready have ubuntu.
[14:26] <bazhang> Kasle, so nothing will be installed.
[14:27] <Kasle> bazhang: ok
[14:27] <zer0__> problem solved :)
[14:27] <poopsniffer> what file defines user's default shell when they fire up a terminal?
[14:27] <mcscruff> is there a way to backup my contacts from my nokia under ubuntu as i cant be bothered to run windows in a vm
[14:28] <zer0__> i can try help as i could to solve ubuntu problem(almost acer aspire 4530/ubuntu 8.10 i386)
[14:29] <poopsniffer> i changed it in /etc/passwd, but when i click on terminal, it still starts with sh....
[14:29] <poopsniffer> more then one file to edit?
[14:29] <prasad> #quit
[14:29] <prasad> quit
[14:30] <joaopinto> Pooky, the recommended procedure is to use the chsh command
[14:30] <joaopinto> ops, was for poopsniffer
[14:30] <poopsniffer> joaopinto, uh oh...
[14:31] <edz_> damn, I have't been on irc in years!!!
[14:31] <coax> !!
[14:31] <edz_> i feel like a geek again
[14:31] <coax> welcome back
[14:31] <poopsniffer> joaopinto, ran command, killed termial, opened a new one, still started in sh..
[14:31] <joaopinto> poopsniffer, echo $SHELL
[14:31] <poopsniffer> gnome needs to be retarted maybe?
[14:32] <poopsniffer> prints /bin/sh
[14:32] <joaopinto> poopsniffer, and you changed it to ?
[14:32] <poopsniffer> /bin/bash
[14:32] <poopsniffer> chsh even confirms the change....
[14:32] <stinger_au> hello
[14:33] <stinger_au> what are restricted-modules ?
[14:33] <joaopinto> poopsniffer, that is odd
[14:33] <poopsniffer> joaopinto, i know, i'm lost.
[14:33] <Dein> i have a problem concerning burning an image file to a cd - i had an image which was in a .bin format and i couldn't burn it because it insisted i convert it to .iso. now i have, but since the original image was a data + audio cd now i have the .iso file PLUS all the audio tracks in additional .cdr files. how can I burn this so that it ends up the same as the original? or is there a way to just burn the .bin (i have the .cue too)  file from lin
[14:33]  * Mstnt`afk will back
[14:33] <stinger_au> my nvidia drivers seem to have gone bung and when i try to re install them i see it is trying to install restricted modules but they are the wrong version for my kernel
[14:33] <joaopinto> poopsniffer, have you tried to login from the console instead ? CTRL-ALT-F1 '
[14:33] <joaopinto> ?
[14:34] <poopsniffer> yah, that works correctly.
[14:34] <poopsniffer> i think it's a gnome thing.
[14:34] <prakash_621> how to start firestarter automatically, after booting linux ???
[14:34] <poopsniffer> or terminal launch icon needs to be changed.
[14:34] <ardchoille> poopsniffer: what's the problem with logging into gnome?
[14:34] <prakash_621>  how to start firestarter automatically, after booting Ubuntu ???
[14:35] <sivang> Hi all
[14:35] <poopsniffer> gnome logs in fine. just when i  go to apps > terminal, it always fires up in sh, and i want bash, and chsh confirms the change. and ctrl+shift_f1 confirms the login change. but terminal from gnome doesn't.
[14:35] <poopsniffer> stumped
[14:35] <ppcasm> Hi, I was wondering if Khexedit was taken out of the ubuntu intrepid ibex release repositories?
[14:35] <ardchoille> prakash_621: the scripts starts itself, you don't have to have firestarter open to have your firewall
[14:35] <sivang> Does anybody know how to add custom commands to the 8.04 automount mechinery ?
[14:36] <sivang> I want to add nls=iso8859-8 to the mount options
[14:36] <sivang> adding this to /etc/fstba didn't seem to take effect
[14:36] <prakash_621> NO ardchoille, actually, it asks me administration password when it gets executed.
[14:36] <joaopinto> poopsniffer, probaly gnome terminal does not care about the users shell setting
[14:36] <poopsniffer> hmm, works on my other system.....
[14:36] <poopsniffer> not this one.
[14:37] <sivang> automounting ignores what's there in /etc/fstab
[14:37] <musikgoat|main> poopsniffer: you just want the shell to be bash everytime?  not dash?  have you tried setting the symlink for sh to bash?
[14:37] <prakash_621> I know that this GUI front end tool is not running automatically when linux is booted. ardchoille
[14:37] <poopsniffer> musikgoat|main, wouldn't know how to do that
[14:38] <poopsniffer> just weird a console login confirms the chsh change, but terminal from gnome doesn't. /etc/passwd confirms the change as well.
[14:38] <ardchoille> prakash_621: ah, ok
[14:38] <prakash_621> What to do ? Ian MacGregor
[14:39] <ardchoille> prakash_621: so when the scrpt gets launched it's asking you for the admin password?
[14:39] <prakash_621> Yes. it is asking me the administration rights, password.
[14:39] <ardchoille> prakash_621: how did you install firestarter?
[14:40] <prakash_621> apt-get install
[14:40] <musikgoat|main> poopsniffer: but thats what you want, is bash?
[14:40] <musikgoat|main> in your gnome-terminal?
[14:40] <ardchoille> prakash_621: That's odd, the package is setup to take care of things for you. I use firestarter, and have since Dapper, and it never asks me for the admin pass until I start the gui
[14:41] <prakash_621> Oh Thanks  MacGregor
[14:42] <ardchoille> prakash_621: when the gui is launched, yes, you need the admin pass. but the gui doesn't need to be launched in order to have the firewall running
[14:42] <Phoenix87> re
[14:42] <poopsniffer> musikgoat|main, yes, but in order for it to work, even though i changed /etc/passwd to /bin/bash, and used chsh to change it to bash, everytime i click on applications>acc>terminal, i have to type /bin/bash in the terminal to change it. BUT ctrl_shift+f1 confirms the change...so dunno man
[14:42] <poopsniffer> terminal always wants to start in /bin/sh, not /bin/bash
[14:42] <poopsniffer> !, driving me crazy
[14:43] <musikgoat|main> poopsniffer: try this:  sudo rm /bin/sh; sudo ln -s bash /bin/sh
[14:43] <musikgoat|main> then try again
[14:43] <ardchoille> musikgoat|main: that's not a solution
[14:44] <musikgoat|main> gnome-terminal is calling sh
[14:44] <ardchoille> it would be better to export $shell in the .profile or .bashrc
[14:44] <poopsniffer> musikgoat|main, wtf? now the prompt is sh-3.2$
[14:44] <prakash_621> will that run when my system boots Ian ?
[14:45] <ardchoille> prakash_621: the firewall script will run, yes. but the gui doesn't have to run in order for your firewall to be working.
[14:45] <poopsniffer> musikgoat|main, before it was just "$"
[14:45] <poopsniffer> now it prints sh's version
[14:45] <prakash_621> how can i check that it is running in background ?
[14:45] <ardchoille> prakash_621: you can check with: sudo iptables --list
[14:45] <Chaotic_Descent> any idea why Xchat automatically closes every time I join efnet's #help? First I went on, asked a question and the app closed. I opened the app again and connected and as soon as I joined the channel the app closed.
[14:45] <prakash_621> Oh thanks. ardchoille
[14:45] <ardchoille> prakash_621: empty iptables don't show much, but you'll see a lot since the script is setup
[14:46] <musikgoat|main> poopsniffer:as ardchoille, i'm taking you down the wrong path, so reverse it with: sudo rm /bin/sh; sudo ln -s dash /bin/sh
[14:46] <musikgoat|main> *said
[14:47] <ardchoille> musikgoat|main: there should be no reason to remove anything from /bin, that can cause problems. Please don't recommend things like that
[14:47] <poopsniffer> $ echo $SHELL
[14:47] <poopsniffer> /bin/sh
[14:47] <poopsniffer> $
[14:47] <musikgoat|main> ardchoille: i'm not, i was suggesting to change a symlink
[14:47] <poopsniffer> no gain
[14:47] <FloodBot1> poopsniffer: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:47] <grelle> hi. maybe someone can help me? I'm trying to install ubuntu with a netboot image, but my computer reboots after initrd.gz has loaded. I've disabled acpi and apic, used irqpoll, and changed to vga mode, but nothing works so far...=/
[14:47] <crossover> Hello. I have one probelm with my resolution. I can`t select 1280 x 1024 only in Nvidia X server settings but when I set it it work only for time when I work with it when I reboot or turn of and then on computer the resolution turns back to 1024 x 786 I don`t want set the resolution all time when I start system.
[14:47] <ardchoille> musikgoat|main: you said sudo rm, that's not acceptable, IMHO
[14:48] <poopsniffer> hahaha, well, whatever we're trying to do, lets up this distrib upgrade will fix what gets b0rk3d
[14:48] <poopsniffer> hope*
[14:48] <jatt> how do I deactivate the beep
[14:49] <jatt> in gnome-terminal
[14:49] <jatt> is pissing people here in the library :)
[14:49] <poopsniffer> jatt, unplug speaker
[14:49] <jatt> laptop no way to unplug
[14:49] <jatt> is there a command?
[14:49] <retro_> some files form my desktop disapeared :(
[14:49] <poopsniffer> function key + function volume down
[14:49] <poopsniffer> erm, speicial key
[14:49] <poopsniffer> my special function key works on my laptop
[14:50] <dr_willis> poopsniffer,  ive had them work in some laptops.. then not work in other laptops..
[14:50] <poopsniffer> luck of drasw
[14:50] <dmulholland> hey, does anyone know if they've fixed the bug in network manager yet that means it doesnt store passwords for vpn correctly?
[14:50] <ardchoille> jatt: edit your gnome-terminal profile and uncheck "Terminal bell"
[14:50] <dr_willis> poopsniffer,  :) but normally Ubuntu makes them work more - then any other disrtos ive tried..
[14:51] <jatt> ardchoille: that's it it works! thanks.
[14:51] <dr_willis> jatt,  also use the 'xset b 0 0 0 ' command - that should get rid of a lot of the beeps
[14:51] <ardchoille> jatt: yw :)
[14:51] <jatt> alright
[14:51] <dr_willis> jatt,  Other aps may beep. that xset command makes thm beep at 0 volume. ;P
[14:51] <ardchoille> dr_willis: ah, thanks for that
[14:51] <dr_willis> I gotta put some foam around speaker in  this old pc i got  - it has a LOUD beep. :)
[14:52] <Lo_> Hi all on my personal laptop I have no "real" graphics adapter, so sadly no compiz-fusion... One plug-in I really miss in terms of functionality is the widget layer plug-in (F9)... anyone know of a "non-compiz" alternative/similar app?
[14:52] <jatt> in fact, my sound card got busted yesterday after I run the update manager and upgraded my hardy installation, now my card is not recognized anymore, but the card is there:
[14:52] <jatt> 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 02)
[14:52] <jatt> yesterday some people had the same issue with other cards, was the latest update faulty?
[14:53] <ardchoille> Lo_: for stuff like screenlets/gdesklets?
[14:53] <JamaulBrown> Question:  I just made the switch to Linux, and was wonder if Linux slows down after time like windows?  Or can I expect my system to run this perfectly for the foreseeable future?
[14:54] <Lo_> ardchoille, not exactly.. I'm seaching for something which can hide/bring in foreground one or more apps at the press of a button
[14:54] <ardchoille> Lo_: oh, ok, no idea
[14:54] <IndyGunFreak> JamaulBrown: i've yet to have a problem w/ mine slowng down, but i guess anything is possible
[14:54] <SOURdiesel> does the OS always use some of the swap partition?
[14:54] <Lo_> ardchoille, no preob. thanks anyway
[14:54] <ardchoille> JamaulBrown: Linux doesn't suffer slowing down over time, in fact Linux was designed to run for long periods without reboots
[14:54] <SOURdiesel> i don't understand why it's using .2% of swap and not the full 8gb of RAM
[14:55] <IndyGunFreak> SOURdiesel: if youv'e got a reasonably recent PC, it won't access swap
[14:55] <IndyGunFreak> SOURdiesel: 8gigs?... are you using 32bit
[14:55] <SOURdiesel> IndyGunFreak: exactly
[14:55] <SOURdiesel> IndyGunFreak: 64bit
[14:55] <IndyGunFreak> weird.. dunno
[14:56] <Lobes06> Hello all, if I have a windows xp laptop, that currently dual boots to Xubuntu, what is the best way to install Ubuntu to simply replace Xubuntu?
[14:56] <staar2> how to make clean unistall to mysql server ?
[14:57] <dmulholland> how can i restart network manager in gnome?
[14:57] <n8tuser> dmulholland-> sudo network-admin
[14:57] <GNUtoo> hello, i'v'e a question...what the time on ls -l and filechooser(gtk) correspond? last access? last write? what if the filesystem has noatime?
[14:57] <erUSUL> Lobes06: the partitioning is already done so a normal install would be easiest
[14:58] <dr_willis> Lobes06,  easiest is to install ubuntu-desktop,  that will let you have both on the same install.. then you could remove the xfce packages if you want.. or keep them if theres tools that xfce has that you like.
[14:58] <Lobes06> So put the Ubuntu in when winodws is running, and choose that second option to install from Windows?
[14:58] <consfearacy> gnoob
[14:58] <dr_willis> Lobes06,  but it depends on exactly what you want to do. and if you want to keep your current data/home/stuff.  and drive space.
[14:58] <Lobes06> I would like to completely replace Xubuntu, wipe it out, so to speak, and use Ubuntu instead
[14:58] <Lo_> Lobes06, Depends if you want to "wipe" your current xubuntu otr keep its settings etc.
[14:59] <Lo_> Lobes06, Then go for standard install from Cd
[14:59] <dr_willis> Lobes06,  you reinstall then.
[14:59] <erUSUL> GNUtoo: is last writte afaik (modification time mtime)
[14:59] <Lobes06> And it won't screw up the grub option to get into Windows? If I lose that, I'll be in trouble!
[14:59] <dr_willis> Lobes06,  but theres no real need to do that.
[14:59] <GNUtoo> erUSUL, ok thanks a lot
[14:59] <Lo_> Lobes06, be careful when you select what partitions to use, but I guess if you already partitioned and dual booting you know avbout this
[15:00] <Ohmu> going a little crazy here ... one moment I am skype-talking.  next time I try mic isn't working.  then it is.  then it isnt.  can anyone help?  ive killed pulseaudio.  can only one app have the mic input?  can the different apps mess with each other?
[15:00] <dr_willis> Lobes06,  it will reinstall the grub loader and menus...  xubuntu dident mess up windows did it? :) ubuntu shouldent.. they are the same core OS. If you wanted tobe safest.. then as i said. just install ubuntu-desktop package
[15:00] <GNUtoo> erUSUL, if the time and  date of the computer is ok...and the computer only have ubuntu...what could possibly mess-up theses dates?
[15:00] <erUSUL> GNUtoo: btw you should use relatime instead of noatime ;)
[15:00] <Lobes06> ok will do, thanks everyone
[15:00] <SOURdiesel> i don't understand why the OS is using .2% of swap when the system has access to 8gb of RAM.  64 bit.
[15:01] <Lo_> Ohmu, Depends what yo're using for audio
[15:01] <erUSUL> GNUtoo: dunno; not enough info... what do you mean by mess up? time in the future?
[15:02] <GNUtoo> erUSUL, for instance for a text that was written the 2008-11-26 ls shows 2008-11-28
[15:02] <GNUtoo> s/ls/ls -l
[15:02] <Sk8rdude> does anyone have any ftpd experience?
[15:03] <erUSUL> GNUtoo: well maybe you changed the mode (chmod) or some other operation (chown?) that modifies mtime
[15:03] <Joeeb> Hello!
[15:04] <GNUtoo> erUSUL, i didn't do that for some time...
[15:04] <Joeeb> Mite there be anyone who can give me a bit of advice?
[15:04] <fatnet>  :)
[15:04] <sanguisdex> is there a place the that can learn advanced terminal operations?
[15:05] <Sk8rdude> does anyone have any ftpd experience?
[15:06] <GNUtoo> Sk8rdude, isnt't its configuration a bit like apache's?
[15:06] <okunnig> I just gotto ask, is there a definite solution to the common nvidia + compiz black flicker problem?
[15:06] <Lo_> Hi all on my personal laptop I have no "real" graphics adapter, so sadly no compiz-fusion... One plug-in I really miss in terms of functionality is the widget layer plug-in (F9)... anyone know of a "non-compiz" alternative/similar app?
[15:07] <Sk8rdude> GNUtoo: i'm having problems with a specific ftpd ignoring switches on startup
[15:07] <GNUtoo> Sk8rdude, ah ok...i used proftpd long time ago and I don't remember well
[15:07] <scientes> how do i make a x509 certificate froma key and a crt?
[15:07] <Sk8rdude> okunnig: only to turn off compiz for video
[15:08] <n8tuser> Sk8rdude-> how did you verify the ignored switch is not enabled?
[15:08] <Sk8rdude> GNUtoo: does pro do virtual users?
[15:08] <Sk8rdude> n8tuser: the switch tells the server tthe max user limit is 10... when i log in a second time it fails because the max user limit has been reached
[15:08] <neptun> hello everybody!!can someone help me to configure a tv tuner with fm radio on ubuntu ?
[15:09] <okunnig> Sk8rdude: well, that kinda sucks, I didn't want to drop compiz now that I'm quite used to it
[15:09] <GNUtoo> Sk8rdude, don't remember
[15:09] <Joeeb> I have Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid. I cant for the life of me get my mic to work.
[15:09] <Joeeb> Ive played with all the settings
[15:09] <xjkx> where is the default jre home here
[15:09] <Sk8rdude> okunnig: there's something you can download which is essentially a switch which you can shortcut to so you only have to turn it off for for video playback
[15:10] <n8tuser> Sk8rdude-> could it possibly be another flag thats limiting and not the user limit?  like perhaps no 2nd user from same ip address?
[15:10] <jatt> how do I boot with an older kernel? I suspect the latest upgrade doesn't detect my sound card I wanna test with an older one. In /boot I see older images
[15:10] <blubb> I can't compile ndiswrapper to get bcm working: http://pastebin.com/m464a8521
[15:11] <Sk8rdude> n8tuser: i would agree but that switch is also specified in my startup line at 5
[15:11] <n8tuser> jatt-> there should still be  /lib/modules/oldversionheredir/
[15:11] <okunnig> Sk8rdude: Oh, my bad here. I actually have a black flash once in a while no matter what I do, It's not related to video playback nor opengl-applications nor fullscreen modes
[15:11] <Sk8rdude> n8tuser: even when i take both switches out of the line and start the server it defaults to 1 when the man says it should be 50
[15:12] <neptun> can someone help me to configure a tv tuner with fm radio on ubuntu ?
[15:12] <Sk8rdude> okunnig: no idea then... sorry
[15:12] <n8tuser> Sk8rdude-> i dont all the intimate details but i suspect its another flag thats preventing a 2nd log on from same ip
[15:12] <posto2> olá
[15:12] <n8tuser> indot know*
[15:12] <n8tuser> i dont know**
[15:12] <posto2> Hello
[15:12] <Sk8rdude> n8tuser: it doesn't make a difference with ip... ive tried logins from different machines
[15:13] <Sk8rdude> n8tuser: can i pm?
[15:13] <n8tuser> Sk8rdude-> stay here...what is the pid of that app?
[15:14] <dust_t> hi whenever i try to watch a movie trailer in seamonkey from apple.com/trailers, it tells me I need the latest quick time plugin. But once I copy the full url of the .mov file it loads using the mplayer plugin. But when i try doing that with wget it always fails. Any idea why that happens ?
[15:14] <n8tuser> Sk8rdude-> try  cat /proc/pidofsuch/cmdline  and see if the switch is listed
[15:15] <un1que> Hi guys
[15:16] <un1que> I am looking for a command in liveCD
[15:16] <un1que> any help?
[15:16] <fengyj> what
[15:17] <Sk8rdude> n8tuser: command not found... ??
[15:17] <un1que> I need to get root privilages while I am on live session
[15:17] <un1que> to create a folder on an external hard disk
[15:17] <n8tuser> Sk8rdude-> which command?   you have to find the pid of ftpd first
[15:17] <kke> can i create some kind of template files in /etc/skel that would be "compiled" when doing useradd?
[15:17] <Lo_> what's a nice GUI application for synchronization/backup?
[15:17] <Sk8rdude> un1que: just sudo the command, on a live session there is no root password
[15:18] <un1que> I know, but it is not working on the graphical UI
[15:18] <dr_willis> kke,  not that i have ever seen/noticed.. thats just copied over..  guess you could make their .bashrc do somthing the firsst time its ran.. what are you wanting to do exactly that needs this?
[15:18] <Sk8rdude> n8tuser: sudo: cat/proc/3189/cmdline: command not found
[15:18] <dr_willis> Sk8rdude,  spaces are imporntant :)
[15:18] <n8tuser> Sk8rdude-> put a space after cat
[15:18] <Sk8rdude> cock
[15:19] <rjune_> Sk8rdude: I've found that's less important
[15:19] <kke> dr_willis: well basically i want to create a read-only .ident file which says "ident $username", probbaly could be done some other way (identd:s config i guess), just got interested about such possibility
[15:20] <Sk8rdude> n8tuser: 'pure-ftpd (SERVER)' so that would suggest it's not using any switches; yet i know it is using some because one switch defines the port to accept connections which i know is working
[15:20] <larry> ok this is my prob using berauso i had the movie's i want than select burn wich take's me to another window to comfirm the burn and than no matter what i select   the burn button in that window is grayed out and will not let me burn the dvd
[15:20] <rjune_> Sk8rdude: it probably uses the standard ftp ports by default.
[15:20] <prakash_621> how can i start root in gnome desktop ?
[15:20] <Inzi85> hello everyone
[15:20] <deeflex> hey im trying to change the font in emacs but I keep getting "No fonts match: Bitstream ....". Altough the font exists in Openoffice
[15:21] <rjune_> and it runs out of xinetd, it doesn't handle port allication
[15:21] <deeflex> so im not sure what the problem is
[15:21] <mrichman> I just tried to change my hostname and now I get "sudo: unable to resolve host securemail" (securemail is the new hostname)
[15:21] <Sk8rdude> rjune_: i specified a port outside the normal range... which it accepts connections on and not the default
[15:21] <deeflex> i'm following this guide http://peadrop.com/blog/2007/01/06/pretty-emacs/
[15:21] <un1que> Sk8rdude, I need to create a folder on external drive then copy some files for back up
[15:21] <larry> anyone plz hlp
[15:21] <deoks> Is there any easy way to disable monitor suspend when an external VGA monitor is connected in Intrepid?
[15:21] <Sk8rdude> un1que: just sudo mkdir
[15:22] <un1que> Sk8rdude, that I know, but I need it in GUI not just terminal
[15:22] <dr_willis> kke,  could make a entry in .bash_profile to make such a file if it does not exist.. but the user could still remove it then.. Not sure why you even need a .ident file :)
[15:22] <larry> ok this is my prob using berauso i had the movie's i want than select burn wich take's me to another window to comfirm the burn and than no matter what i select   the burn button in that window is grayed out and will not let me burn the dvd
[15:22] <larry> anyone plz hlp
[15:22] <Pupeno> Hello.
[15:22] <Sk8rdude> un1que then open nautilus with sudo... theres no other way to do it
[15:22] <dr_willis> kke,  identd is sort of - rarely used these days.. its considered very insecure i recall.
[15:22] <Pupeno> How do I switch to the guest user?
[15:23] <dr_willis> Pupeno,  when you login to gnome as your normal user, that useragent tool widget has a 'guest'  item you can use..
[15:23] <kke> dr_willis: yep. but for example QuakeNET irc-network requires forced idents if you have multiple connections from same ip.
[15:23] <larry> if this is not a hlp channel can somone tell me what one is and i will go there
[15:24] <Lo_> what's a nice GUI application for synchronization/backup?
[15:24] <dr_willis> kke,  easier way.. theres random identd servers that are like 4 lines of perl code.. :) start one as a service.. it will give out random identd responses
[15:24] <ardchoille> larry: this is the official support channel for Ubuntu
[15:24] <ferronica> ubuntu 8.10 released kernel 2.6.27-7, how do i add it on menu.lst??

[15:26] <ardchoille> kke: it does if you choose to installer the package maintainers menu.lst, which some folks don't do
[15:27] <dr_willis> kke,  i always make my identd reply that im 'billgates' :)
[15:27] <kbrooks> Um
[15:27] <kbrooks> Question for everyone
[15:27] <ferronica> kke: at the time of installation shows me options to keep current local settings or community, i selected local :( thats why

[15:27] <kke> ferronica: remove and reinstall? :)
[15:27] <kbrooks> Is it ethical to spam about your own Ubuntu LoCo in another channel which is not ubuntu related?
[15:27] <ferronica> kke: how to do that ?
[15:28] <kke> ferronica: via synaptic, search for the kernel (linux-image-something i guess) and select remove
[15:28] <ardchoille> kbrooks: I would say no, if they wanted to use Ubuntu they would :)
[15:28] <larry> dr_willis ok thanks
[15:28] <ferronica> kke: ok let me try
[15:28] <Galdo> hi, my computer just crashed while i was listening music on amarok ; how can i now why my computer crashed ?
[15:28] <kke> ferronica: or there was some sort of dpkg-reconfigure -thing that runs the config scripts again for a package
[15:29] <kbrooks> ardchoille, Ddo you know the process to report such people?
[15:29] <kke> ferronica: i hope your system doesn't break :)
[15:29] <ardchoille> kbrooks: if it happens in this channel, report it to #ubuntu-ops, that's what I did recently
[15:29] <kbrooks> ardchoille, it didn't happen in this channel, but I'd like to report it anyway
[15:30] <ardchoille> ok

[15:39] <j0hnnyX> and wanted to know
[15:40] <un1que> kke, nothing
[15:40] <j0hnnyX> Since this is about "UBUNTU" then you won't mind telling me how Ubuntu works on a PS3 as opposed to a PC.
[15:40] <un1que> any other ideas?
[15:40] <j0hnnyX> That is on topic
[15:40] <adub> when ubuntu loadss i can login at the splash login screen but x windows does not load and i can not get a command prompt?

[15:42] <DawnLight> hey. i'm trying this what's written in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedFilesystemOnIntrepid and i'm getting a kernel panic. actually, the premount script doesn't ask me for the passphrase and... then the kernel panics trying to mount the root filesystem
[15:42] <Lo_> what's a nice application with gui for synchronization/backup?
[15:42] <mrichman> ra21vi: sudo /etc/init.d/ssh start
[15:42] <ardchoille> *mp3
[15:42] <ra21vi> then ?
[15:42] <j0hnnyX>  Yeah but with no memory in the PS3 like a PC
[15:42] <ra21vi> mrichman: ^
[15:42] <lorenzo> ardchoille, so i should install grip or lame? do they have a gui?
[15:42] <j0hnnyX> How can it work as well?
[15:43] <kruve> hey i have a laptop and i get sound in my headphones but not in my internal speakers i have ubuntu 8.1, any one know what the problem can be ?
[15:43] <j0hnnyX> And wouldn't you have to use external devices?
[15:43] <j0hnnyX> If you wanted more functionality?
[15:43] <j0hnnyX> and Can Ubuntu do all that
[15:43] <mpaiva> Lo, Sbackup
[15:43] <j0hnnyX> With programs included
[15:43] <mrichman> ra21vi: it says "Starting OpenBSD Secure Shell server sshd  [ OK ]"
[15:43] <ardchoille> lorenzo: grip is an audio ripper, and it needs lame to rip to some formats. yes, grip has a nice gui
[15:43] <ra21vi> mrichman: try sudo iptable -I INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT
[15:43] <j0hnnyX> These are the questions I'd have as I am looking to possibly sell my PC and use my PS3 as a PC
[15:44] <ra21vi> mrichman: you also need to see if port is open. and in listening mode
[15:44] <ra21vi> mrichman: try using nmap
[15:44] <Razzel> hi, when i load ubuntu i get the error messages: "Aperture beyond 4GB. Ignoring." "Unable to load the Systen description details" "MP-BIOS Bug: 8254 timer not connected to IO-APIC" - anyone know what this means pls?

[15:46] <histo> I'm running 64bit and installing ubuntu-restricted-extras  its going to install sun-java6-bin is that okay?
[15:46] <mrichman> ra21vi: iptables plural ;)
[15:46] <curly752> i've found what i think is a foul-up on the vendor ID list guys.... anyone familiar with this list?

[15:47] <SaEeDIRHA> i dont have sound in my desktop
[15:47] <mrichman> ra21vi: that command had no effect
[15:48] <SaEeDIRHA> anyone know what the problem is ?
[15:48] <ra21vi> mrichman: do you have nmap installed
[15:48] <ra21vi> try sudo nmap localhost
[15:48] <mrichman> ra21vi: no, but i can in a second....
[15:48] <curly752> the Creative PC370R webcam has the correct vendor ID of 041e:4038 and also 0471:0329.
[15:48] <SaEeDIRHA> and when i try to test the sound with System>Preferences -> Sound
[15:48] <Pupeno> is there any spanish manual for installing that I can print?
[15:49] <SaEeDIRHA> it gives me this error message : audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Failed to connect stream: Invalid argument
[15:49] <curly752> 0471:0329 should be Philips SPC900NC webcam.... but it has totally fallen off the list dammit !
[15:50] <mac__> good day
[15:50] <scientes> GOD dang how can i make ubuntu stop messing with my network settings automatically?
[15:50] <mrichman> ra21vi: it does not show 22/tcp open, but neither does my other box, which sshd is accepting connections on
[15:50] <curly752> so SPC900NC webcam users like myself have the wrong driver grrr
[15:50] <scientes> messes up everything
[15:51] <exodus_ms> SaEeDIRHA, take a look here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/200451

[16:17] <xvc> i can't get it to bootable
[16:17] <Docal> Aside from running Itunes/wine is there any way for me to purchase content off itunes from inside Ubuntu?
[16:17] <ericjung> xvc: no problems here. you probably burned a bad CD?
[16:17] <ericjung> Docal: sure. you mean mp3 music?
[16:17] <xvc> ericjung: i tried 3 times
[16:17] <Docal> yes
[16:18] <Docal> ericjung - yes
[16:18] <ardchoille> docI've been told that the iTunes app itself provides some of the needed functionality and iTunes is closed source
[16:18] <ericjung> Docal: sure. have you tried amazon's online music store?
[16:18] <sotos123> Is there no way to connect to a wireless router that requires a dsl login after I connect to the router in intrepid?
[16:18] <ericjung> Docal: they have as large a selection as itunes and works well with ubuntu
[16:18] <Docal> I think what I am looking for has only been released on itunes
[16:19] <ericjung> ardchoille: i have an ipod nano 4th gen and use it with ubuntu every day
[16:19] <evolve_> ok, onto my most challenging question - i had to install off of a USB drive using a floppy disk to boot that usb drive -- if i remove the USB drive or the floppy (or both) the machine is not bootable. what did i do wrong and how can i fix it?
[16:19] <ardchoille> ericjung: iPod != iTunes
[16:19] <ericjung> Docal: you can also use a windows virtual machine then if you must run itunes

[16:20] <sotos123> guess i will just install windows again

[16:21] <ardchoille> hehe
[16:21] <sotos123> threat?No desparation more like
[16:21] <Docal> I'm sorry ericjung - but that is way over my head, i'm relatively novice.
[16:21] <evolve_> ichbinesderelch: yes, grub -- in order to boot now i have to use the floppy disk to select the usb drive and then it accesses grub
[16:21] <RB2> loxley_: I think part of the issue is that Windows is on the first disk and Ubuntu is on the second disk, not two partitions on the same drive. All of the directions I seem to find address the latter situation.
[16:22] <nicolah> is there a way (using the terminal) to get a list of all sound devices installed on my computer ? thanks
[16:22] <ichbinesderelch> evolve_: in your bios, did you select the harddrive where you installed grub?

[16:23] <Maveas> How do I use a .png for menu icon? :S
[16:24] <ichbinesderelch> evolve_: if you have installed everything correctly, the bootloader should be on the harddrive

[16:24] <ericjung> how can i view the terminal output as ubuntu boots instead of the ubuntu splash screen?
[16:25] <ichbinesderelch> evolve_: hhm maybe try reinstalling just grub
[16:25] <ardchoille> Maveas: ok, in the properties for that menu item, see the picture box under the menu button? click that and browse to the .png you want to use
[16:26] <blip-> hi, is it just me or is the version of mercurial in both 8.04 ad 7.04.... still at 0.9.5 ?

[16:27] <evolve_> ichbinesderelch: odd thing is, when i do boot from the usb stick right now using the boot loader on the floppy it says 'booting from (hd1,0) which makes me think that i did something wrong, cause i thought it would be 0,0
[16:27] <ichbinesderelch> evolve_: you are in ubuntu right now?

[16:28] <ericjung> how to see output during ubuntu startup?
[16:28] <koljo32m> I think it's unfair to load ubuntu channel by default
[16:29] <koljo32m> I did'nt ask for it
[16:29] <ericjung> koljo32m: haha
[16:29] <koljo32m> ericjung: dmesg | vim -

[16:29] <ardchoille> koljo32m: it's done that way so it's easy for people to get here, you can easily remove it if you want
[16:29] <ericjung> koljo32m: it is free. how can you claim unfairness forfree?
[16:29] <exodus_ms> SaEeDIRHA, are you still having problems with sound
[16:30] <ericjung> koljo32m: no, i mean during boot i want to see output
[16:30] <koljo32m> because I didn't want to connect

[16:30] <ericjung> isn't there a keypress sequence?

[16:31] <ardchoille> !fixgrub

[16:33] <albuntu> is there any way to burn an iso to a partition in the hard drive ? i dont want just to extract the iso to the partition because i know it will not be bootable
[16:33] <RB2> koljo32m: yes, I had it setup with grub and an OS selection. I had to re-isntall Windows and it blew away the MBR. So, now I'm just trying to get grub to load again.
[16:34] <koljo32m> RB2: I don't get it, you should still have grub
[16:34] <koljo32m> if ubuntu loads, grub was active, no?
[16:34] <albuntu> RB2: you can use the live cd to reinstall grub
[16:34] <ardchoille> koljo32m: installing windows over writes mbr, thus destroying grub
[16:34] <Joeeb> Im using intrepid 8.12 and when I unmute my mic in Sound Prefs and it will automaticly remute it.
[16:34] <ferronica> how to reinstall vmlinuz-2.6.27-9-generic?

[16:35] <Joeeb> O im sorry
[16:35] <Joeeb> I mean 8.10
[16:35] <ardchoille> koljo32m: no idea, sounds like something is confused
[16:35] <koljo32m> right
[16:35] <koljo32m> the live cd reset sounds good
[16:36] <RB2> koljo32m: It doesn't load linux, it's loading straight into Windows. It never hits grub
[16:36] <koljo32m> ah ok
[16:36] <albuntu> RB2: its a very simple way of reinstalling grub. i have made it many times
[16:36] <koljo32m> indeed, load the live cd and reset the mbr
[16:36] <Joeeb> Any ideas?
[16:36] <ichbinesderelch> RB2 change the first boot drive to the where you installed grub
