[00:00] <Rampage> SeanL9941: not exactly
[00:00] <legend2440> daves111: yes it affects a lot of things
[00:00] <Jordan_U> Shak-, What version of Ubuntu are you using?
[00:00] <Shak-> Jordan_U: 8.04
[00:00] <SeanL9941> well, i was going to use the partition program in ubuntu
[00:00] <Rampage> SeanL9941: if you are planning to install it might aswell do it now
[00:00] <SeanL9941> cause i have not done it yet
[00:00] <daves111> legend2440: sorry to keep talking if you are busy; but how do I learn more at the terminal level. I know a lot of dos
[00:00] <Rampage> SeanL9941: as live cd is limited in what you can use
[00:00] <Rampage> sean you can download gparted livecd and use that
[00:00] <SeanL9941> i was just going by what someones video on youtube
[00:00] <Jack_Sparrow> !cli
[00:01] <Rampage> SeanL9941:  you can download gparted livecd and use that
[00:01] <newbyx86> alt+f2 xterm -bg black -fg white ftw
[00:01] <newbyx86> (don't actually put ftw)
[00:01] <legend2440> !bash |  daves111
[00:01] <Rampage> SeanL9941: I always use gparted to modify partitions
[00:01] <SeanL9941> gparted came with it i thought thats why i was tring to do try it first
[00:01] <electroman87> Before anything Hello all. I'm afraid that i am indeed a newb to ubuntu. and any help would be greatly appreciated. Now I was wondering if someone could help me i am unable to install programs in ubuntu. I tried "make" and "sudo make install" but i get "make: *** [default] Error 2 and then nothing happens is there anyone that can help me.
[00:01] <Jordan_U> Shak-, I don't know what it could be then, a possible solution might be to try using pulseaudio :)
[00:01] <SeanL9941> OK,..but if i hit install now, and i have not done any partition yet what'll happen?
[00:01] <Jordan_U> electroman87, What are you trying to install?
[00:01] <Rampage> SeanL9941: you can edit partitions in the installation process
[00:02] <electroman87> a vpn lcient
[00:02] <newbyx86> electroman87: Go put the entire log on a pastebin and give us the link.
[00:02] <Jack_Sparrow> electroman87 As a new user, you should look at synaptic, apt-get and aptitude and stick with our repositories of tested software
[00:02] <SeanL9941> ok perfect :) thanks ill get on it,
[00:02] <daves111> legend2440: what?
[00:02] <Jordan_U> electroman87, Which vpn client?
[00:02] <electroman87> it comes in a tar.gz file
[00:02] <Rampage> SeanL9941: make sure you choose manual and not guided though
[00:02] <SeanL9941> ok
[00:02] <legend2440> daves111: up above Jack_Sparrow got you a link to read about terminal commands
[00:02] <Shak-> Jordan_U: hmm do you know of any command that can show what procs are using the audio? I've tried switching between all the audio interfaces and playing a file but none of em play the audio :/
[00:02] <Rampage> SeanL9941: guided uses the full disk
[00:02] <SeanL9941> anything else i should know?
[00:02] <icqnumber__> ttt, why was not you happy with the one form the repo, if will do a kernel update, you will need to install/update nvidia driver manually again?
[00:02] <David__> http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b321/IncomingF5/DSC00349.jpg just installed from the alternate cd ubuntu 8.04 wont boot this is the messege i am getting can someone tell me what is wrong.
[00:02] <newbyx86> I love the repos haha.
[00:02] <newbyx86> I'm pretty good with linux and I stick with them
[00:02] <Rampage> SeanL9941: have you defragmented the windows partition?
[00:02] <newbyx86> makes for easy updating :)
[00:02] <icqnumber__> ttt, from*
[00:02] <SeanL9941> tried to, but said i didnt need to
[00:02] <electroman87> it's cisco vpn client
[00:03] <Rampage> SeanL9941: try run an offline defragment to move the unmovable files
[00:03] <SeanL9941> fresh installof xp pro about 2 weeks ago
[00:03] <Rampage> SeanL9941: that should be okay i guess
[00:03] <Jordan_U> electroman87, There is a cisco vpn client that comes with Ubuntu ( installed by default ) as part of network-manager
[00:03] <Jack_Sparrow> !build-essential | electroman87
[00:03] <Chousuke> David__: either your hardware is broken or the CD was corrupted
[00:03] <jobr> SeanL9941, what are you trying to do
[00:03] <jobr> ?
[00:03] <legend2440> !cli  | daves111
[00:03] <SeanL9941> jobr: just being a noob thats all :)
[00:03] <Rampage> SeanL9941: install it and if the partition resizing moans at you do an offline defragment of the windows drive
[00:03] <daves111> legend2440: sorry, can't seem to find it
[00:03] <sam_> Hey, Im in the process of building a computer and im looking for a case. Price doesnt matter too much although cheaper is probably better...I just dont like those stupid doors on the front and i like windows to show off my stuff but not those gay dragon lookin things...any ideas
[00:03] <electroman87> i read that and followed the steps but no go
[00:04] <zvacet> SeanL9941 : defragment it few times anyway
[00:04] <Jack_Sparrow> daves111 https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal

[00:04] <zvacet> SeanL9941 : I see windows ready for defragment just after install
[00:04] <Jack_Sparrow> !fsck
[00:04] <Rampage> SeanL9941: i've just started using linux a month ago, am new to a lot of things

[00:05] <David__> how do i make my hd not read only
[00:05] <SeanL9941> alright ill go back to xp and defrag then pop the disk in
[00:05] <Rampage> zvacet: i avoid defragmenting unless i'm having to modify the partitions
[00:05] <Jack_Sparrow> David__ ntfs partition?
[00:05] <SeanL9941> job i got the normal install cd
[00:05] <David__> yeahg
[00:05] <chimp> Jack_Sparrow: Only have access via live cd, should i mount the / and then create the fastboot file there?
[00:05] <Jack_Sparrow> !ntfs-3g
[00:05] <sam_> Hey, Im in the process of building a computer and im looking for a case. Price doesnt matter too much although cheaper is probably better...I just dont like those stupid doors on the front and i like windows to show off my stuff but not those gay dragon lookin things...any ideas
[00:05] <David__> but istarted with unallcocted space
[00:05] <Jordan_U> electroman87, Sorry, it seems that it does not come by default but can be installed with the package "network-manager-vpnc" which you can get either by running "sudo apt-get install network-manager-vpnc" or using system -> Administration -> Synaptic Package Manager if you prefer a GUI
[00:06] <jobr> nths-3g -- isn't it installed default in hardy?
[00:06] <Jack_Sparrow> chimp im a bit under the weather, someone else will know.. I dont want to mess you up
[00:06] <zvacet> Rampage : defragment windows before Ubuntu install
[00:06] <Rampage> SeanL9941: also i'd suggest running an offline defragmenter for the unmovable files (perfectdisk'd do)
[00:06] <SeanL9941> sucks right now i only have 1 keyboard (g15) my ps/2 keyboard doesnt want to work on my htpc and my MS bluetooth htpc keyboard doesnt work in command line anything
[00:06] <jobr> zvacet, Whay defracment? what should it heap?
[00:06] <electroman87> the problem is the installer i have comes with the profiles for my school already configured
[00:06] <Jack_Sparrow> jobr Yes, but his drive could be lovked down by windows for a number of reasons
[00:06] <quailman> is this the right channel for help?
[00:06] <Jack_Sparrow> locked
[00:06] <SeanL9941> cant say i know what offline defrag is /means
[00:07] <jobr> Jack_Sparrow, kk :) just asking
[00:07] <sam_> anybody at all
[00:07] <Rampage> SeanL9941: it means it will move the unmovable files that windows defragment can't move
[00:07] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[00:07] <zvacet> job : if you want to dual boot and don´t want to lose any of yours windows files
[00:07] <SeanL9941> how do i  do it? just defrag?
[00:07] <Rampage> SeanL9941: so means you cna play around with the partitions better
[00:07] <SonicComKid> seems like a good install this time finally
[00:07] <user01> why is wireless networking so difficult in ubuntu?  i always seem to have problems with it . . .
[00:07] <Jordan_U> electroman87, My wireless lost signal for a second, did you get my previous message?
[00:07] <Rampage> SeanL9941: you need another application, i use perfect disk for offline defragmenting
[00:07] <SonicComKid> takes 5 seconds when I pick XP for it to actually start to load, but that's fine
[00:07] <electroman87> no
[00:07] <Jack_Sparrow> user01 Buy hardware with better support
[00:08] <Jordan_U> electroman87, Sorry, it seems that it does not come by default but can be installed with the package "network-manager-vpnc" which you can get either by running "sudo apt-get install network-manager-vpnc" or using system -> Administration -> Synaptic Package Manager if you prefer a GUI
[00:08] <electroman87> i don't think so jordan
[00:08] <sam_> ok well then while im in here.....

[00:08] <jobr> zvacet, That's all about how your partitions is set up
[00:08] <Jordan_U> electroman87, Once you install that you can connect to your VPN by clicking the network-manager applet at the top right of the screen
[00:08] <RULR> why is video quality on youtube so bad. something wrong with firefox?
[00:08] <LetsGo67> Jack_Sparrow I just love getting that error message.

[00:09] <user01> Jack_Sparrow, broadcom?
[00:09] <zvacet> jobr : but if you want to shrink your windows partition?
[00:09] <Rampage> SeanL9941: yes
[00:09] <David__> but i shrunk it then use the unallocated space for ubuntu install
[00:09] <LetsGo67> Jack_Sparrow what happened to ubotu?
[00:09] <SeanL9941> ok getting it right now
[00:09] <Jordan_U> electroman87, what happens when you run "sudo apt-get install network-manager-vpnc" ?
[00:09] <Jack_Sparrow> user01 I have had good luck with most broadcoms
[00:09] <sam_> What the fuck is the point of coming in here if no one will help me??
[00:09] <SeanL9941> rampage did you switch from xp or vista?
[00:09] <daves111> now getedit is telling me it is going to erase the changes in 42 minutes and that I don't have permission to keep changes
[00:09] <Rampage> SeanL9941: so run windows defragment and only offline defragment in perfect disk
[00:09] <Jack_Sparrow> sean sorry one sec
[00:09] <jobr> zvacet, yeah... thats right.. do you have to shrink?
[00:09] <Rampage> SeanL9941: i switched from xp to avoid the crap called vista :P

[00:10] <electroman87> 1 sec jordan_u
[00:10] <SonicComKid> I know half of the people here will scream 'scuritry flaw' but this is just a perosnal PC for gaming. Is there a way to make Ubuntu auto-login and stop asking for my password when I use verious apps like package manager?
[00:10] <Jack_Sparrow> LetsGo67 Please stop
[00:10] <zvacet> jobr : not me it was advice for somebody else and I don´t know what he want so I advice him in safe way
[00:10] <LetsGo67> That was a genuine question :(
[00:10] <Jordan_U> electroman87, I need to leave right now but I will be back in about half an hour, feel free to /msg me if you have a question and I will try to get back to you
[00:10] <chalcedony> SonicComKid: run as root?
[00:11] <Starnestommy> LetsGo67: ubottu replaced it
[00:11] <achandrashekar> 3 hour delay..at denver international..and thank god i have my asus eee and ubuntu.
[00:11] <Jack_Sparrow> SonicComKid Yes, you can change the setting in the login window manager under security
[00:11] <xivanari> heya folks
[00:11] <SonicComKid> chalcedony, ..that won't make it auto-login as me

[00:12] <jomanc> hi, im trying to edit my applications menu, i right click on Applications, and then click on Edit Menus and it doesnt work. i found that i can bring up the menu editor by running sudo alacarte, but i cant edit al
[00:12] <jomanc> all the entries in the other menu
[00:12] <genii> jomanc: Thats likely becase you ran it with sudo at some point instead of gksu
[00:12] <electroman87> Jordan_u it worked but i do not have the profiles for my school
[00:13] <genii> permissions were changed so normal user can't access it anymore
[00:13] <jobr> zvacet, i think defragmenting is not necessary... but mabye a good idea
[00:13] <sensae> I'm trying to get KitchenSync to sync SyncML, it won't run
[00:13] <jobr> zvacet, i wound not do it :)
[00:13] <jomanc> genii, how do i change them back? find alacarte in one of the bin directories and change the permissions?
[00:14] <genii> jomanc: No. On;y the things in your own home directory
[00:14] <jobr> jomanc,what are you tryning to do
[00:14] <zvacet> jobr : like I said it is not for me I don´t use M$
[00:14] <genii> jobr: He's ran alacarte with sudo and now normal user can't access it
[00:15] <j85wilson> best video editing software on ubuntu, what is it?
[00:15] <jomanc> genii: what things in my home directory?
[00:15] <j85wilson> I'm a complete and utter noob at video editing.
[00:15] <j85wilson> and don't require much more than cutting and sticking bits together.
[00:15] <chimp> Jack_Sparrow: Adding fastboot via live cd worked a charm, thanks
[00:16] <jobr> zvacet, Ohhh... i did not know that it was a user in here... Just trying to help :)
[00:16] <zvacet> jobr : np
[00:16] <co_bolos_skool> surabaya
[00:16] <jobr> genii, Who
[00:16] <Jack_Sparrow> chimp great.. glad it worked
[00:17] <chimp> Still have to work out why fsck causes kernel panic though..... grr
[00:17] <quailman> hey everybody. I started the 8.04 upgrade this morning when i left for work. I got home and the screen's blank. the computer's still on, but nothing works. no caps lock light, no waking. ----  is it safe to restart the machine??
[00:17] <genii> jobr:  jomanc
[00:18] <Jack_Sparrow> quailman ctrl alt F2 first
[00:18] <marcus_> yes reboot
[00:18] <Jack_Sparrow> see if it will bring up a cli
[00:18] <genii> jomanc: All things in your home dir should be owned by you actually. I'm trying to find the exact file name atm
[00:18] <marcus_> i'm guessing you didn't test woith the live disc?
[00:18] <jomanc> genii okay thanks
[00:19] <jomanc> only things that are owned in my homedir by somebody other than me is .dbus by root
[00:19] <quailman> ctrl alt F2 = nothing
[00:19] <jobr> quailman, ?
[00:19] <dynamethod> Hey im ssh'ing to my home machine(on windows atm) using putty, how do i open up another terminal session?
[00:19] <newbyx86> dynamethod: open up another putty?
[00:19] <Jaffarkelshac> i am having a perculiar problem with firefox, if i edit bookmarks, and i close firefox, the changes revert,
[00:19] <dynamethod> no
[00:19] <jobr> quailman, ctrl alt F1... nothing?
[00:19] <Jack_Sparrow> quailman then yes, reboot.. Had to check that though
[00:20] <quailman> ctrl alt F1 also nothing
[00:20] <dynamethod> usually in bash i just use alt f1 but thats not working with putty
[00:20] <electroman87> how do i find out what kernal im using??
[00:20] <newbyx86> dynamethod: What do you mean another terminal session? Do you want a new bash?
[00:20] <dynamethod> yup a new bash
[00:20] <zvacet> electroman87 : uname -r
[00:20] <Starnestommy> electroman87: to find your kernel version, use uname -a
[00:20] <newbyx86> Try "bash -l" ?
[00:20] <quailman> thanks guys. I'll reboot & see what happens
[00:20] <dynamethod> cause im running WEBrick, so i cant do anythhing else otherwise
[00:20] <newbyx86> OH.
[00:20] <newbyx86> You rpobably want screen.
[00:20] <newbyx86> probably*
[00:20] <dynamethod> ya thats the one
[00:20] <electroman87> thank you
[00:21] <newbyx86> Is screen installed?
[00:21] <dynamethod> not sure, but i could install it
[00:21] <newbyx86> Type "screen" into bash, then you can create new "screens" with some keystrokes.
[00:21] <newbyx86> CREATE A NEW TERMINAL: [CTRL + A] C
[00:21] <newbyx86> (hold CTRL, push A, let go of both, push C)
[00:21] <newbyx86> then to move between them, use [CTRL + A] N and [CTRL + A] p
[00:21] <Shak-> is there a way to see what processes are tying up my audio card?
[00:22] <dynamethod> sweet, ill try that as soon as my lag chills the fak out
[00:22] <newbyx86> haha ok
[00:22] <Jaffarkelshac> i am having a perculiar problem with firefox, if i edit bookmarks, and i close firefox, the changes revert,how do i find out whats going wrong
[00:22] <genii> jomanc: You need to chown ~/.config/menus/applications.menu back to your username and group
[00:22] <newbyx86> It should actually be [CTRL + a] c/n/p, the capitlized variatns may do something different.
[00:22] <newbyx86> :P
[00:23] <jobr> Jaffarkelshac, how experienced are you
[00:23] <Jaffarkelshac> i do fine Jobias
[00:23] <sensae> How can I sync Kontact with KitchenSync?
[00:23] <Ice_Max> is there a way to repartition my windows hard drive so i can install ubuntu on it using a live Cd of 8.04?
[00:23] <Jaffarkelshac> i do fine Jobr
[00:23] <jobr> Jaffarkelshac, have you checked permissons?
[00:23] <dynamethod> shot thanks newbyx86 that works
[00:23] <newbyx86> :) glad to help.
[00:23] <marcus_> Ice, yes
[00:23] <newbyx86> (I'm using my IRC client in a screen so I can close putty and re-open from wherever)
[00:23] <jobr> Jaffarkelshac, Glad to hear by the way
[00:23] <newbyx86> (It's nice!)
[00:23] <jobr> Jaffarkelshac, :)
[00:24] <marcus_> try running the install and the partition manger will start
[00:24] <newbyx86> oh, and ot detach screen, [CTRL + a] d
[00:24] <newbyx86> and then to resume the screen: screen -r
[00:24] <Jaffarkelshac> yeah, default was rx, tried rwx but still changes dont stay jobr
[00:24] <zvacet> Ice_Max : you can use  live CD without thouch win
[00:24] <Ice_Max> marcus_, what should i do to repartition it withotu lsoing any data? i wna tot be able to dual boot ubuntu and XP
[00:24] <dynamethod> lol i gota try keep on the low down cause im in the middle of class, hell the tutor doesnt even realise ive found out the proxy port to get outside of the local network lmao
[00:24] <jobr> Jaffarkelshac, hmmm.... strange.. with version of ff?
[00:24] <newbyx86> haha nice
[00:24] <Jaffarkelshac> 3 beta jobr
[00:25] <zvacet> Ice_Max : and you can repartition windows  with ubuntu live Cd but defragment wins few times before
[00:25] <newbyx86> Yeah. When I get to college, I'll probably tunnel everything through a SSH tunnel.
[00:25] <newbyx86> Anything "fun" of course. :P
[00:25] <jomanc> genii: okay, that allowed me to run alacarte without sudo, but the right clicking on Applications -> Edit Menu still doesnt work
[00:25] <Ice_Max> zvacet, I've being using a Live Cd for the past few weeks, and i wanna jump into a hard drive installed ubuntu
[00:25] <dynamethod> well i like to cause then i can work on my linux box instead of these winblowse machines, i cant do jack on these, even mysql on windows is a pain :S
[00:25] <genii> jomanc: No idea offhand on that one
[00:26] <jobr> Jaffarkelshac, have you tried: mv .mozilla .mozilla-bak
[00:26] <Bubble_tea> Where can i report error
[00:26] <jomanc> ack
[00:26] <Bubble_tea> on firefox 2
[00:26] <Jaffarkelshac> i was just about to try that jobr
[00:26] <jobr> Jaffarkelshac, Just to see whats happens?
[00:26] <Bubble_tea> it keep on closing

[00:41] <jobr> Jack_Sparrow, emma why use sudo for any app, whats the problem

[00:41] <andre> hey guys, Where did the openssh-server package go?
[00:41] <zvacet> CorbinFox : http://www.osalt.com/movie-maker
[00:42] <crdlb> Genius314: use the failsafe gnome session at the login screen
[00:42] <Jack_Sparrow> emma thanks.. got it
[00:42] <emma> jobr - it temporarily gives you super-user privliges, which are not privlidges you want to necessarily be going around with at all times. It minizes the possibility of harming your system unintentially if you have to make a concious choice to become the super-user.
[00:42] <Jack_Sparrow> jobr there are times you need super priv to get something done
[00:42] <Genius314> crdlb: failsafe also didn't work... it still loaded Compiz for some reason. I'm using the terminal login option.
[00:43] <andre> !askthebot hello?
[00:43] <crdlb> Genius314: remove it from ~/.config/autostart/ then

[00:45] <akahige> may have hosed myself... was trying to work out some smb issues and changed my uid in /etc/passwd... now I can't sudo because it's looking for the old uid... which means I can't change it back... what did I just do to myself...?
[00:45] <zvacet> Ice_Max : wait a min,please
[00:45] <emma> jobr: it is not recommended that you use it permanently. By default when you use sudo you are asked for your password and it will remain in effect for some fixed period of time before reverting back to normal user level.
[00:45] <Ice_Max> sure
[00:45] <Jaffarkelshac> hope so jobr

[01:18] <Ice_Max> want a SS or u want me to jsut apste the txt?
[01:18] <genii> jimcooncat_: Better to make them in some editor then copy/paste into the blog site. Otherwise a lot of them timeout while ppl are composing their manifestos, etc
[01:18] <prabakaran> yes bcm
[01:18] <SonicComKid> that worked, thanks

[01:18] <cyndre> I have ubuntu installed inside of windows - need to move it to its own hard drive.  Anyone know of any good tutorials on how to do this
[01:19] <supercom32> I configured my Ubuntu USB pendrive exactly the way I want it. Is there a way make it non-persistent from this point on? If not to prevent changes, to save the life of the flash media?
[01:19] <Demon> Has anyone here managed to run Visual Basic 6 on Ubuntu via WINE?
[01:19] <jimcooncat_> genii, yes, I tried that, too complex for her usage.
[01:19] <SonicComKid> "No precompiled kernel interface was found to match your kernel; would you like the installer to attempt to download a kernel interface for your kernel from the NVIDIA ftp site?"  should I?
[01:19] <ingo__> how can i delete my current default kernel and make the second one my default again? (grub ...)
[01:20] <Demon> Hey you are trying to get NVIDIA Drivers? I tried that same thing and it didnt work.
[01:20] <cyndre> Demon, it was simple
[01:20] <jimcooncat_> a tee program to a textbox would be great
[01:20] <supercom32> I configured my Ubuntu USB pendrive exactly the way I want it. Is there a way make it non-persistent from this point on? If not to prevent changes, to save the life of the flash media?
[01:20] <SonicComKid> I'm trying to get NVIDIA drivers for my graphics card. I downloaded the Linux 64bit version (I'm using Ubuntu 8.04 64bit)
[01:20] <crdlb> SonicComKid: why aren't you using system > administration > hardware drivers ?
[01:20] <cyndre> I enabled extra effects under system, pref, appearance and they asked me to install them
[01:21] <Demon> Ah, I don't think 64 bit Linux drivers exists
[01:21] <genii> ingo__: just sudo aptitude/apt-get remove it, grub will adjust itself
[01:21] <Demon> I believe that was the problem I had before
[01:21] <SonicComKid> crdlb, it offers drivers, but it doesn't even specify if it's the newest or even for my card
[01:21] <BCM43> jimcooncat_: http://linux.softpedia.com/get/Security/Simple-Python-Keylogger-37085.shtml
[01:21] <crdlb> SonicComKid: it is
[01:21] <Bhavesh> YAY.. the computer is booting without kernal panic
[01:21] <Ice_Max> BCM43:http://i170.photobucket.com/albums/u277/Ice_Max/Screenshot-x-session-manager.png
[01:21] <crdlb> Demon: nvidia does offer 64bit drivers
[01:21] <SonicComKid> it only shows graphics card too.. why doesn't it do the same for sound drivers and the like?
[01:21] <crdlb> SonicComKid: because sound drivers are not proprietary
[01:22] <Demon> Will they allow me to play Counter-Strike: Source properly via WINE?
[01:22] <crdlb> nvidia's driver is a closed-source blob
[01:22] <randomshadowbmg> ntfs partition wont boot on boot for me
[01:22] <SonicComKid> you sure the one on the thing there is the best driver as opposed to the one on the Nivida site?
[01:22] <Demon> I ran it before and all the text was garbled
[01:22] <BCM43> Ice_Max: that is after doing what?
[01:22] <Bhavesh> dmraid or other raid software?
[01:22] <jimcooncat> very nice BCM43, I should be able to make a zenity script from that
[01:22] <Ice_Max> it poped up right when it was loading the desktop
 sudo apt-get remove <kernelname> ???
[01:22] <crdlb> SonicComKid: it's the same driver, but installing the driver from nvidia's site is very messy and can often fail
[01:22] <BCM43> jimcooncat_: sarcasm>
[01:22] <SonicComKid> ...okay..
[01:22] <BCM43> jimcooncat_: sarcasm?
[01:22] <BCM43> !tab | ingo__
[01:23] <crdlb> SonicComKid: unless you have a 9800 or something in which case you'd need a beta driver
[01:23] <jimcooncat_> BCM43: no, actually serious :-)
[01:23] <Bhavesh> ingo__ my advice is not to remove old knernel, just add the new one in your boot manager, keep the old one for backup if something fails with new kernel
[01:23] <SonicComKid> I have 7950
[01:23] <BCM43> jimcooncat_: ok
[01:23] <fbc> Is there any way to change the default character set? Everytime I extract a text file from a zip it comes in iso-18859-15 I would prefer UTF-8.
[01:23] <crdlb> SonicComKid: that's fine then
[01:24] <SonicComKid> okay..
[01:24] <cyndre> anyone know how to move my ubuntu installation to a new hard drive?
[01:24] <Ice_Max> BCm: should i try and install ubuntu anyway?
[01:24] <genii> ingo__: Find the running version. eg:  uname -r      then: sudo apt-get remove linux-image-<whatever uname -r reported here>
[01:25] <Nanoer> what's the difference between formatting a partition with ext2 or ext3?
[01:25] <genii> ingo__: When it cleans up grun and removes the entry, the previous one becomes first to be loaded again
[01:25] <jimcooncat> BCM43: I guess I was kidding -- way more code than I want to audit!
[01:25] <supercom32> I configured my Ubuntu USB pendrive exactly the way I want it. Is there a way make it non-persistent from this point on? If not to prevent changes, to save the life of the flash media?
[01:25] <genii> grun->grub
[01:25] <BCM43> jimcooncat_: hold on a sec
 ahh, ok - thats what i want - thank you :-)
[01:26] <genii> supercom32: Toggle the little read-only switch on the media card
[01:26] <BCM43> jimcooncat_: try this http://sourceforge.net/projects/lkl/
[01:26] <Bhavesh> Nanoer two different type of file systems.. ext3 is upgrade to ext2 which provides journal, so if system crashes, you have less chance of losing files
[01:26] <BCM43> supercom32: you could back it up?
[01:26] <Nanoer> Bhavesh: Is there any disadvantages to using ext3 over ext2?
[01:26] <supercom32> Genii: Will that cause Ubuntu to stop running when it can't write to the media it expects to be writable?
[01:27] <BCM43> supercom32: it should just tell you
[01:27] <Bhavesh> Nanoer none that i know of, others may have more info, but one ADVANTAGE of ext3 is that if you need to, you can mount it as ext2 file system
[01:27] <genii> supercom32: If you have a swap file on there perhaps
[01:27] <Chunky_Ks> "Is there any disadvantages to using ext3 over ext2?" No. Use ext3.
[01:27] <supercom32> BCM43 I could back it up, but I'm actually thinking about saving the life of the media.
[01:27] <Nanoer> Bhavesh: Ah okay thanks :)
[01:27] <Chunky_Ks> Do not use ext2, ext2 needs to die already.
[01:27] <Bhavesh> Nanoer u r welcome
[01:27] <prabakaran> hello
[01:27] <supercom32> genii For swap, how do you specify something else? Perhaps make a ramdisk?
[01:27] <Bhavesh> this helping people out is pretty cool :)
[01:27] <BCM43> supercom32: there is nothing you can do that i know of
[01:27] <BCM43> hi prabakaran
[01:27] <prabakaran> i couldnt connect to terminal
[01:27] <Dachha> Hey guys I'm using the Modified Native Driver for Ubuntu for my wireless rtl8187b and I cannot connect to my network. I'm currently using my lan to get on here.
[01:28] <hou5ton> What package should I install to set up my wireless?
[01:28] <genii> supercom32: If ram is no issue and you don't plan to suspend-to-ram thats fine
[01:28] <BCM43> prabakaran: what do you mean connect to terminal?
[01:28] <BCM43> hou5ton: what wireless card?
[01:28] <genii> supercom32: Also hibernate, etc
[01:28] <supercom32> genii Thanks for the suggestion. Is there any tutorials or instructions on how to move the swap to ram disk?
[01:28] <prabakaran> i went to aplication n then clicked d terminal server
[01:28] <hou5ton> BCM43:  it's an external D-Link that worked out of the box on Fiesty
[01:29] <linuxmonkey> !wifi
[01:29] <genii> supercom32: I'll look, one minute
[01:29] <Rampage> prabakaran: what do you want to do?
[01:29] <supercom32> genii Wonderfull. Thanks.
[01:29] <hou5ton> BCM43:  this laptop has an internal card too ... but don't know if it's supported
[01:29] <BCM43> linuxmonkey: that is terrible
[01:29] <prabakaran> kde
[01:29] <BCM43> hou5ton: do lspci and put the result in pastebin
[01:29] <prabakaran> small desktop icons
[01:29] <BCM43> !paste | hou5ton
[01:29] <jimcooncat_> I guess keylogging isn't going to be my answer, maybe I can look at proxies and intercept her "SUBMIT" button. That might be too sneaky though.
[01:30] <Dachha> Hey guys I'm using the Modified Native Driver for Ubuntu for my wireless rtl8187b and I cannot connect to my network. I'm currently using my lan to get on here.
[01:31] <genii> supercom32: Since swap generally gets used when ram runs out I'm not sure what kind of performance you'll get incidentally. Might be bettwe to just disable it if you have 1+ Gb
[01:31] <hou5ton> BCM43:  this is the results withOUT the external card.    http://paste.ubuntu.com/18932/
[01:31] <Bhavesh> nevermind i got happy too quickly
[01:31] <hou5ton> BCM43:  do you want me to do another one WITH the external card inserted now?
[01:32] <BCM43> hou5ton: this page will tell you how to get the internal one working, if you want i can help with the external one too. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Feisty_No-Fluff
[01:32] <supercom32> genii Well ok. My pendrive has no write protect switch. And as you said, yes, swap is used when memory runs out. Is there anything else that can be done perhaps? I see tutorials all over on how to make your live pendrive persistant, but nothing in reverse. Maybe there is a feature which tells the OS not to write changes to disk?
[01:32] <Nanoer> Daccha are you using a toshiba satellite lapatop? If so this may help you: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=571046&page=6
[01:33] <hou5ton> well .... if the internal one will work, that's fine ... it's just that I know the external one did
[01:33] <hou5ton> BCM43:  do you want me to insert it and past the stuff again?
[01:33] <Dachha> Nanoer - Yes I have a Toshiba Satellite A215-S5824
[01:34] <BCM43> hou5ton: instert it and run lsusb
[01:34] <hou5ton> BCM43:  it isn't a usb ... is that what that command is checking for?
[01:34] <arooni-mobile> i'm having trouble booting safe mode for windows xp via f8.... i have vbox (latest from sun) running on ubuntu gutsy gibbon... when i hit f8 during the boot process (for win xp pro) ... nothing happens... i tried with function lock on and off with no results.  ideas?
[01:34] <BCM43> hou5ton: yes, how is it plugged in?
[01:35] <Nanoer> Dachha: apparently you have to force the card to work everytime you boot it
[01:35] <Nanoer> I'm going to try to find more info
[01:35] <BCM43> arooni-mobile: this is ubntu support only, try ##windows
[01:35] <hou5ton> BCM43:  in the slot on the side ....
[01:35] <jobr> Sleep well channel.. :)
[01:35] <BCM43> hou5ton: put it in and try lspci
[01:35] <genii> supercom32: There previously was a method which involved running the casper (livecd image) from another device like thumbdrive etc. If you have a heavily customised version, perhaps consider using something like Ubuntu Customisation Kit which allows you to make a custom install cd. Then use the image from that.
[01:35] <Dachha> Nanoer: Ok thanks for the Link
[01:36] <Nanoer> Dachha: try using these drives: http://www.datanorth.net/~cuervo/rtl8187b/
[01:36] <strtok> hello, after doing an apt-get upgrade ubuntu upgraded the nvidia-glx-new drivers and now I'm getting a "Failed to load the NVIDIA kernel module" error
[01:36] <strtok> anyone know?

[01:36] <supercom32> genii Thanks. I'll look into that.

[01:39] <SeanL9941> guess i should have gone for 'alternative cd'?
[01:39] <genii> supercom32: Some references to get you started: http://uck.sourceforge.net/     and an older but relevant tutorial using casper image transplant http://www.pendrivelinux.com/2007/01/25/usb-x-ubuntu-610/
[01:39] <strtok> BCM43: that article is from 2006?
[01:40] <SeanL9941> Rampage u got any insight on this?
[01:40] <BCM43> strtok: it is being updated all the time, post your results on the forum tread
[01:40] <strtok> BCM43: it was working perfectly previous to ubuntu upgrading stuff
[01:40] <Rampage> sorry what SeanL9941
[01:40] <Ice_Max> wow, connecting to a remote external drive on a windows machine was a lot eaier in ubuntu than it is in XP

[01:41] <SeanL9941> i get a 2 Fail's and 3 OK's
[01:41] <Ice_Max> i've decided to reformat my whole hard drive, and set up the partition from scratch. what would be the best method of execution if i wnated to dual boot XP and ubuntu?
[01:41] <Rampage> SeanL9941: try install it, and shrink the windows partition (after selecting manual partitioning) create a partition for ubuntu and see if that works
[01:42] <Cpudan80> Ice_Max: Install XP first
[01:42] <genuser> hello people
[01:42] <SeanL9941> Rampage, i clicked install it, then iget the loading bar, then i get text on screen with errors
[01:42] <Cpudan80> Ice_Max: You can do all that stuff within the XP install --- just dont format the space for ubuntu

[01:42] <Ice_Max> cpudan80:ok, and jsut leave an empty partition for ubuntu?
[01:42] <Rampage> SeanL9941: thats strange, what sort of errors?
[01:42] <genuser> having issue running jack, rosegarden, MIDI doesn't sound. DSSI plugins make sound. Stop jack, restart rosegarden, midi plays fine. not thru rosegarden.
[01:42] <BCM43> SeanL9941: try alternitive
[01:42] <Cpudan80> Ice_Max: Right - do not format it - the installer will show it as unpartitioned space IIRC
[01:43] <SeanL9941> dang, another 6 mins and a cdr wasted...lol alright
[01:43] <Ice_Max> sounds good
[01:43] <BCM43> !prefix
[01:43] <SeanL9941> Rampage ,: it just says Start-stop-daemon: Unable to start /usr/sbin/cron: input/output error (input/output error)
[01:43] <Rampage> SeanL9941: try an alternative iso, and burn it at a slower speed (not the max of the burner)
[01:43] <Cpudan80> Ice_Max: in the XP installer - it will ask you how big (in MB) to make a partition, make say half the MBs for XP and just leave the rest alone
[01:43] <SeanL9941> Rampage i mean its a screen full of jibberish but thats the one that failed
[01:43] <Ice_Max> the current partition doesnt seem to want to be edited
[01:43] <Cpudan80> Ice_Max: Install XP on the first partition
[01:43] <SeanL9941> alright gonna get the alternative disc
[01:44] <Rampage> SeanL9941: cool
[01:44] <Cpudan80> Ice_Max: Could be that it is locked - something like gparted can help you unlock it
[01:44] <hou5ton> BCM43:  sorry .... system locked up
[01:44] <killux> hey is there a way to remove all the gnome panels in gusty?

[01:44] <BCM43> hou5ton: ok, i just forgot you problem
[01:44] <killux> I am using awn
[01:44] <Cpudan80> Ice_Max: right
[01:44] <hou5ton> BCM43:  any thoughts on that external card?
[01:44] <Ice_Max> both of which are things that linux doesn't seem ot do well :(
[01:44] <Cpudan80> Ice_Max: If you have modern rig - XP will fail to detect the HDDs because they use SATA
[01:44] <BCM43> Ice_Max: linux has great adobe alternitives
[01:45] <Cpudan80> Ice_Max: Do you have a floppy drive?
[01:45] <BCM43> hou5ton: nope, sorry
[01:45] <Cpudan80> In the machine you plan on installing XP on
[01:45] <Ice_Max> cpudan: would build a Pc without one :)
[01:45] <Ice_Max> *wouldn't
[01:45] <Cpudan80> lol ok good
[01:46] <Cpudan80> Ice_Max: So go download the SATA drivers from your mobo site ahead of time - and in the XP install it will say like "Press F<something> to load 3rd party drivers" -- do that and follow the steps
[01:46] <Cpudan80> Ice_Max: join ##windows if you need more help though, as that is outside the scope of ubuntu (Im in there too)
[01:46] <Ice_Max> cpudan: why would i need to do that? ive had no problem installing XP before on this machine
[01:47] <Cpudan80> Ice_Max: Are your HDDs IDE or SATA ?
[01:47] <jamisnemo> I'm trying to use the network boot/network install method to install ubuntu but I keep hitting failures when the installer is being downloaded. It always fails when loading libntfs-3g23-udeb

[01:47] <BlueLaguna> I've been having a problem with Firefox crashing and taking the sound with it.  Is there any way to at least prevent it from blocking the sound device?
[01:47] <jamisnemo> How do I go about finnishing the install?
[01:47] <Cpudan80> Ice_Max: Is your XP CD a plain OEM or some dell version ?
[01:47] <Ice_Max> OEM SP2
[01:47] <Ice_Max> i bought it with my parts 2 yrs ago
[01:47] <tzone> can anyone point me in the right direction for a problem i'm having with nautilus running under 7.10... whenever i plug in my flash drive, every access to the drive takes 30-60 seconds... this doesn't happen from the shell... and it didn't happen up until recently
[01:48] <tzone> ?
[01:48] <Cpudan80> Ice_Max: It's possible that you haven't turned on SATA in the BIOS
[01:48] <Rampage> jamisnemo: what>
[01:48] <Cpudan80> Ice_Max: the default mode for most BIOS is to act like IDE
[01:48] <pub> woah
[01:48] <pub> theres a ton of dockapps
[01:48] <pub> haha
[01:48] <Rampage> jamisnemo: finishing what install?
[01:49] <Ice_Max> hm, il lgo heck my BIOS once this file transfer finishes
[01:49] <Cpudan80> Ice_Max: Since you are starting over from scratch, I'd recommend enabling the setting
[01:49] <jamisnemo> Rampage, I'm using the PXE boot image to install ubuntu but it fails with: "Failed to load installer component" and "Loading libntfs-3g23-udeb failed for unknown reasons. Aborting."

[01:50] <jamisnemo> Rampage, I'm not using a cd at all.
[01:50] <Dachha> Anyone know how to force_card anything with this line: force_card=0x8187 this is for my wireless.
[01:51] <nabcore> What determines which number a wirless card interface gets (wlanN) where N is the number?
[01:51] <Rampage> jamisnemo: hmm, not sure, image corrupted in the download or on disk perhaps?
[01:51] <jamisnemo> Rampage, alright I'll try another archive...
[01:51] <Cpudan80> Ice_Max: ahh ok - I have a gigabyte board (was going to tell you the setting)
[01:51] <Dachha> nabcore: That is 0 for the first wireless card on up wlan0 wlan1 wlan2 etc
[01:52] <Cpudan80> Ice_Max: Its something like SATA mode or something like that -- in the section where you set the advanced things
[01:52] <Ice_Max> cpudan: ill go poke around the BIOs options, haven't been in it for a while
[01:52] <Cpudan80> Ice_Max: But if you enable it - you'll need the SATA drivers from your mobo's website --- just put them on a floppy --- its not a big deal for users with FDDs
[01:53] <Dachha> nabcore: wlan0 is for your only wireless if that is the case
[01:53] <Cpudan80> It gets problematic when you have no FDD
[01:53] <nabcore> Dachha; ok I've had a different card in the machine in the past, and now I have a new one. However it gives the new card the interface wlan2; it seems like it may have "rememebered" something of the old one
[01:53] <Ice_Max> would i be able to downlaod them with the lvie Cd right now and put them on a floppy?
[01:53] <Dachha> nabcore: that is way above me right now.. Just getting the lingo down right now. ;-)
[01:54] <Cpudan80> Ice_Max: Sure - just mount the flopy and copy the drivers
[01:54] <pub> whats the command to get a dockapp? `sudo apt-get dockapp wmcpuload`?
[01:54] <pub> or is dockapp install
[01:54] <Cpudan80> Ice_Max: assuming Asus doesnt do one of those EXE extractor things -- in which case.... :-/
[01:54] <nabcore> Dachha; that's cool, thanks for the pointers tjhough
[01:54] <Dachha> nabcore: I'm sure thats exactly what you said residual drivers
[01:54] <pianoboy3333> Is it possible to do AIM video chatting with linux? How can I?
[01:54] <Cpudan80> Ice_Max: If that's the case - let me know -- Im in windows right now, I can send the FDD files

[01:55] <BCM43> strtok: which one was this?
[01:55] <jamisnemo> Rampage, the install always fails at libntfs-3g23-udeb no matter what archive I use. What does the installer need ntfs stuff for anyways?
[01:55] <maestrojed> I need to change the permissions on a file that is owned by root.  So I try to "sudo" and get the message "sudo: /etc/sudoers is mode 0777, should be 0440".  Any suggestions?
[01:55] <Dachha> Now I'm just looking to find out how I can put this line into a file or something like rc.local so it will run on every startup: force_card=0x8187
[01:56] <strtok> BCM43: nvidia 6600?
[01:56] <BCM43> maestrojed: chown
[01:56] <adude> BCM43: not sure. how do i find out.
[01:56] <maestrojed> BCM43: but the file is correctly owned by root
[01:57] <Ice_Max> cpudan:what am i looknig to downlaod?
[01:57] <BCM43> strtok: ok, confused you from someone else
[01:57] <BCM43> adude: lspci
[01:57] <Cpudan80> Ice_Max: something like SATA boot drivers or presetup driver or something like that
[01:57] <Rampage> jamisnemo: hmm, not sure what the problem could be :(
[01:57] <Rampage> jamisnemo: sorry :(
[01:57] <Ice_Max> would it be udner utilites?
[01:58] <BCM43> !paste | adude: put the result in ther
[01:58] <Cpudan80> Ice_Max: dont really know
[01:58] <Rampage> jamisnemo: it needs the ntfs stuff if you want to boot windows partitions
[01:58] <Cpudan80> Ice_Max: prob under hard disk drive stuff
[01:58] <jamisnemo> Rampage, is there anyway to get around loading that stuff? I don't need it.
[01:58] <Rampage> jamisnemo: no idea :(

[02:00] <pianoboy3333> Is it possible to do video chat over AIM in linux? How can I?
[02:00] <SonicComKid> how do you set it so that drives auto-mount every some using the Ubuntu GUI?
[02:00] <chris0101> with k3b i am attempting to burn a .cue/bin file but i get unknown error (code 1) before anything happens. how can i fix this?
[02:00] <Dachha> Hey guys if I cannot connect to a network wirelessly should I ununstall Network Manager and install a different one? If so which one to use? Knetwork?
[02:00] <BCM43> adude: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=275546
[02:01] <Dachha> Cause I can see them with my Network Manager right now
[02:03] <adude> BCM43: thanks
[02:03] <Scunizi> chris0101: google ".cue or bin conversion ubuntu" and you should come up with the name of a program that will convert them to iso for burning.
[02:03] <Scunizi> chris0101: you may even find the program in synaptic package manager.
[02:03] <jamisnemo> Where is the mirror.list file located?
[02:03] <maestrojed> BCM43: what file did you think I should change the owner on?  I can't change it on the file I want to edit because it is owned by root and I can't sudo to gain root access.
[02:04] <BCM43> maestrojed: why cant you use root?
[02:04] <t0}{a> зы
[02:04] <Rampage> maestrojed: the system is messed up then, what did you do to go that
[02:04] <Woyrz> Hi i would need some help to make my sound card work and mount a HD
[02:05] <BCM43> !sound | Woyrz
[02:05] <Rampage> BCM43: i did this yesterday and had some similar trouble, chmod 755 /
[02:05] <maestrojed> BCM43: The only way I know to act as root is to "sudo"  but that returns a message "/etc/sudoers is mode 0777, should be 0440"
[02:05] <BCM43> ubottu: where are you?
[02:05] <Rampage> BCM43: what maestrojed is having
[02:05] <will01> anyone know how to set up irkick so that i can start gnome applications with it/
[02:05] <BCM43> ubottu: lag
[02:06] <maestrojed> Rampage: are you talking to me or BCM43, because I am not sure what you are saying
[02:06] <Rampage> maestrojed: what did you do to get the system like this?
[02:06] <danbhfive> maestrojed: have you checked the file?
[02:06] <maestrojed> Rampage: Nothing that I remember
[02:07] <Rampage> maestrojed: I messed my install similarly as i did "chmod 755 /" which i now know is a stupid thing to do
[02:07] <maestrojed> danbhfive: I have, its permissions are 777 and is owned by root.  I tried changing it to 0440 but I can't because I am not root (and now it becomes circular)
[02:07] <Rampage> chmod -R 755 / actually
[02:07] <danbhfive> maestrojed: start in recovery mode
[02:08] <Ice_Max> cpudan: by default, SATA 1 and 3 are set as master drives
[02:08] <danbhfive> maestrojed: another option is to do a clean install.  If you run into more problems, I would do a clean install...
[02:08] <dagonet> i have Asus P5GC-MX installed with Hardy Heron. the problem is attansic L2 ethernet card is not detected. I've red all over the internet, and it seems there are a lot of people have the same problem too. what do u think guys?
[02:08] <Rampage> maestrojed: start in recovery mode login as root and do chmod 440 /etc/sudoers
[02:08] <Cpudan80> Ice_Max: thats not the right setting - there's a different one
[02:09] <Cpudan80> Ice_Max: Sorry I really cant tell you what it is...
[02:09] <maestrojed> Rampage Danbhfive: Ok thanks, will try
[02:09] <VSpike> Can 7.10 and 8.04 share a /boot partition?
[02:09] <Ice_Max> i don't i understand what the problem will be...
[02:09] <BCM43> maestrojed: Rampage chmod 440 /etc/sudoers
[02:09] <nickrud> Is there a way to disable the cts protection, so I don't have cts enabled/disabled messages flooding my syslog
[02:09] <will01> anyone know how to get irkick working with gnome applications?
[02:09] <mr_flea_> VSpike: No. You'll run into problems with the two different apt databases getting confused.
[02:09] <danbhfive> VSpike: why do you have a /boot partition?
[02:09] <nickrud> or better yet, a way to get it enabled
[02:09] <mneptok> Rampage: actually, config files should not have the execute bit set
[02:10] <Ice_Max> cpudan:if i leave a big unpartited space when i install XP, should i be able to put ubuntu right on it after Xp is setup?
[02:10] <mneptok> maestrojed: boot to a live session, mount the internal / partition, and set the correct permissions
[02:10] <VSpike> danbhfive: using lvm2, /boot is in a small ext3 partition
[02:10] <SonicComKid> Can someone please tell me how to unmount a drive using the console, as well how to set auto-mounting of drives?
[02:10] <Rampage> mneptok: yeah, i was really stupid to do "sudo chmod -R 755 /"
[02:10] <maestrojed> BCM43: permission denied (because that file is owned by root, I guess)
[02:10] <Rampage> mneptok: reinstalled the whole OS in the end
[02:10] <BCM43> maestrojed: try with sudo
[02:10] <VSpike> mr_flea_: it's only /boot I'm talking about, not /
[02:10] <nickrud> VSpike actually yes you can, but it's better to have separate boot partitions
[02:10] <mneptok> Rampage: not the non-CoC word i would choose, but i won;t disagree ;)
[02:11] <Rampage> maestrojed: you need to be logged in as root as you can't access sudo
[02:11] <Woyrz> I have a Sound-Blaster X-fi and Ubuntu don't recognize it
[02:11] <Tux> Ok I have manually set the connection on my wife pc for her wireless connection but after reboot I think the key needs to be reset as it is no long there is there a simple place to put this key so when she boots she is connected as I really dont want to give her windows again as ubuntu is way better . any help would rock
[02:11] <nickrud> VSpike they have different kernels, so apt will be controlling it's own installed one(s)
[02:11] <faustovaz83> hi guys
[02:11] <VSpike> nickrud: can
[02:11] <maestrojed> BCM43: When I try it with Sudo I get that sudo message again.
[02:11] <mr_flea_> VSpike: What happens when one installation thinks it's a great idea to install something that's already installed, or when one decides to modify the grub.conf?
[02:11] <nickrud> VSpike can. But no reason to have a /boot partition in ubuntu anyway
[02:12] <Rampage> mneptok: out of curiosity if i did not want users to access any folder but /home/user how can i do that?
[02:12] <VSpike> nickrud: can't the kernel file and initrd be specified in grub?
[02:12] <maestrojed> Rampage: yeah, there is no way to log in as root.  Only sudo.  Unless you use recovery mode or something like that, right?
[02:12] <powertoo108> Woyrz: try disabling your onboard sound in bios if you have it, fixed my sound issues
[02:12] <Rampage> mneptok: as after my last incident i'm wary of recursive chmod
[02:12] <nickrud> mr_flea_ ah, I was thinking of kernels only. You are absolutely right
[02:12] <Woyrz> ok thanks
[02:12] <nickrud> unless only one of them has grub installed
[02:12] <mneptok> Rampage: the default permissions should provide relatively good security
[02:12] <Rampage> maestrojed: ALT CTRL F1 and login as root there
[02:13] <VSpike> nickrud: oh. why not? I was advised to do so by the folks in #lvm
[02:13] <Rampage> mneptok: yeah default perms don't let users edit, but i was thinking maybe if possible not to let the ls /etc for example
[02:13] <nickrud> VSpike for lvm, yes you do need a separate boot.
[02:13] <mr_flea_> VSpike: If you're really careful, though, and manually manage things like grub.conf, you can probably pull it off. Something that automates less of the process of installing things may be a better idea.
[02:13] <mneptok> maestrojed: except that won't work. boot to a live session, mount your internal /, and fix the perms
[02:13] <maestrojed> Rampage: is there a GUI way to do that.  I am connected via VNC and either that command did not work or was not send correctly via VNC (probably the latter)
[02:14] <mneptok> Rampage: security through obscurity is a poor model ;)
[02:14] <maestrojed> mneptok: ok
[02:14] <Rampage> maestrojed: no gui, do what mneptok said
[02:14] <Rampage> maestrojed: it works for me as the first things i do is usually enable the root account
[02:14] <maestrojed> why does /etc/sudoers care that it is 777 instead of 440.  Picky little devil.
[02:14]  * nickrud crosses his fingers at Rampage
[02:14] <mneptok> maestrojed: you cannot login as root as suggested because by default Ubuntu has no root password, effectively disabling interactive logins for the root user (this is a Good Thing(tm))
[02:15] <mr_flea_> maestrojed: because if it's 777 then anyone can give themselves whatever they want for permissions.
[02:15] <nickrud> maestrojed so it's privately owned by root, and not readable/alterable by any old user
[02:15] <Starnestommy> maestrojed: because that makes it so that anyone can give themself root access via sudo because anyone can edit its config file with 777. 440 prevents all writes and keeps all but root from reading it
[02:15] <mneptok> maestrojed: you are allowed to ask that question again when you send me a picture of your sister and your car keys. ;)
[02:16] <Rampage> nickrud: only as a precaution if i ever need to use the root account, and initially while installing all applications when i can't be bothered doing sudo (lazy i know), but in normal use i don't use roor :P
[02:16] <mneptok> Rampage: sudo -i is your new best friend
[02:16] <witakr> hey yall

[02:17] <BCM43> hou5ton: which one?
[02:17] <hou5ton> BCM43:  the internal card
[02:17] <Gman99999> Hey all I'm running an HP laptop with Hardy Heron Fully updated when I first started using hardy heron my microphone worked fine and now it doesn't work at all, I've searched all over the internet to no avail, is there anyone who knows how to fix the microphone problem?
[02:17] <Tux> Ok I have manually set the connection on my wife pc for her wireless connection but after reboot I think the key needs to be reset as it is no long there is there a simple place to put this key so when she boots she is connected as I really dont want to give her windows again as ubuntu is way better . any help would rock
[02:18] <mangojambo> witakr: audacity, ardour ... hydrogen to create beats ... (may be)
[02:18] <nickrud> pub ah, don't know fluxbox keybindings, but either fluxconf or bbkeys should do it
[02:18] <maestrojed> mneptok: I understand the security around it but I think the way it is implemented is crippling.  Either don't let me change it to 777 or let me mess up my security as I wish (maybe with a warning).  Letting me change but then taking away that functionality just crippled the system. I am not complaining to you guys and gals.  Just learning and curious why it is this way
[02:18] <BCM43> hou5ton: post you experience on the forum thread
[02:18] <hou5ton> BCM43:  Now, I'm wondering what are the chances an AT&T air card will work ... it plugs in the USB port .... don't have it with me.
[02:18] <witakr> sweet, thanks mangojambo , i will look into those
[02:19] <Gman99999> nickrud do you know anything about fixing microphone problems? I've searched all over the net and have found nothing to fix this problem in my hp laptop, my mic used to work and now it doesn't after a few reboots
[02:19] <ross> how do i make font bigger on web pages
[02:19] <Rampage> maestrojed: when you do something with sudo it doesn't ask questions it just does. thats why running stuff as root is dangerous
[02:19] <nickrud> Gman99999 I've never tried messing with mikes, sorry
[02:19] <Rampage> especially when you are like me and do stupid things :(
[02:19] <maestrojed> Ok, Thanks all for the help
[02:20] <Gman99999> nickrud do you know where all of the mic controls are located in hardy heron?
[02:20] <chichibangbang> high how do i download all files in a web directory what is easiest way?
[02:21] <noxix> So, I can see my windows network through my ubuntu box. But how do i go about mapping my home directory on my windows box?
[02:21] <Rampage> chichibangbang: if you use firefox you can try downloadthemall
[02:21] <nickrud> Gman99999 in right click volume control, open volume control. There's a recording (mike input iirc) tab
[02:21] <chris0101>  with k3b i am attempting to burn a .cue/bin file but i get unknown error (code 1) before anything happens. how can i fix this?
[02:22] <nickrud> Gman99999 or capture mux that is, on main tab I think. But only think, don't know
[02:23] <chichibangbang> how do i use wget to download all?
[02:23] <Rampage> chichibangbang: you can also use wget with the -r (recursive switch)
[02:23] <Sacro> I have Ubuntu 8.04 in Virtualbox, just done a dist-upgrade, reboot, install virtualbox drivers, reboot and have beend dropped into ash, udevd-event[1344]: run_program '/sbin/modprobe' abnormal exit
[02:23] <Rampage> chichibangbang: see the man page for wget
[02:23] <chichibangbang> rampage how would i do it with say http://www.example.com/example/
[02:24] <nickrud> pub not sure about the work around you pointed me at, but I noticed it talks about keybindings further down the page
[02:24] <darth> wget -r
[02:24] <darth> jebus, man wget
[02:24] <pub> yeah
[02:24] <pub> that's what im following
[02:24] <pub> well iwas going to follow
[02:24] <DEdwards> ping
[02:24] <Rampage> chichibangbang: wget -r -l 1 http://www.example.co./example perhaps
[02:24] <darth> ;)
[02:24] <pub> the keyboard shortcuts right
[02:24] <chichibangbang> so wget -r http://www.example/example/ ?
[02:24] <chichibangbang> what is 1 for
[02:24] <darth> maybe even -c
[02:25] <Rampage> -l 1 is 1 level
[02:25] <chichibangbang> i want to dl all files in subdirectory
[02:25] <delf0s> how do i make the screen turn into a cube in ubuntu?
[02:25] <nickrud> Sacro first place I'd look is /var/log/syslog , probably more about the error there
[02:25] <Rampage> chichibangbang: so only recurse 1 level
[02:25] <darth> c is clobbering, så that if you stop and redownload you wont download elements already downloaded
[02:25] <mangojambo> hi there ...
[02:25] <Rampage> chichibangbang: so you don't need -l then
[02:25] <chichibangbang> no i want all levels
[02:25] <rodrigo> hey guys... do you know any dapper to gutsy, server, upgrade ?

[02:26] <docta_v> i replaced the mobo in my server and now the NICs are showing up as eth3-eth5 instead of eth0-eth2
[02:26] <docta_v> i'm assuming there is a hook into the MAC address somewhere
[02:26] <darth> docta you have 3 onboard nics?
[02:26] <docta_v> how can i reset the system to the new MACs
[02:26] <docta_v> yeah
[02:27] <darth> no.. i mean does your new mobo have three nics?
[02:27] <Rampage> docta_v: you can either use a mac address changer, or do it command line
[02:27] <docta_v> darth: yes
[02:27] <noxix> So, I can see my windows network through my ubuntu box. But how do i go about mapping my home directory on my windows box?
[02:27] <darth> nice 6 nics in server
[02:27] <chichibangbang> rampage please pm me

[02:28] <mangojambo> I am having problem capturing dv video in ubuntu ... unfortunaly I'd install windows to  test that and works realy fine ... in ubuntu some parts of the video just do litle freezes ... (like the processor goes high for I don't know why!)... can someone help me ?
[02:28] <docta_v> i just want them to show as eth0-eth2
[02:28] <darth> noxix use smb://<machine>/c$/documents and settings ect
[02:28] <VSpike> nickrud: I need to rebuild the /boot partition so I can still boot 7.10
[02:28] <darth> assuming your user is an admin on the windows box
[02:28] <musikgoat> noxix: you should right click on your home directory and click shar
[02:28] <noxix> darth: i'm sorry, i meant to say that the other way around. How do I map my ubuntu home directory to my windows machine.
[02:29] <nickrud> VSpike yes, a sec while I pull up some instructions
[02:29] <darth> ahhhh
[02:29] <darth> you need samba for that
[02:29] <VSpike> nickrud: If I boot a 7.10 live cd presumably the contents of /boot will be about right, if I edit the menu.lst
[02:29] <darth> ubuntu already has samba, easiest thing would be to download a gui-setup tool of some kind
[02:29] <nickrud> VSpike there's a canonical way, a sec
[02:30] <darth> you could try gsambad
[02:30] <darth> noxix,
[02:30] <musikgoat> ubuntu desktop doesn't have samba installed by default, i thought
[02:30] <delf0s> anyone know what i press to make compiz rotate cube style?
[02:30] <me_> can anyone help me? my computer keeps booting to the bluetooth configuration file.
[02:30] <musikgoat> noxix: can you right click on your home directory and click sharing options?
[02:31] <nickrud> VSpike https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows#head-bf0ad184b84304b51996a11111a1901667529a80 , up to the point where it talks about restoring grub.
[02:31] <tmapj> can anyone help me? my computer keeps booting to the bluetooth configuration file.
[02:31] <Ice_Max> cpudan80: im gonna look in my BIOS for any options
[02:32] <nickrud> VSpike then do dpkg -l '*linux-image*' | grep ^ii , that will tell you the exact kernel package you need. Then run    sudo apt-get install --reinstall <that linux-image>
[02:32] <will01> when i run " cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#* | grep Codec" i get the response " Realtek ALC888". what would be the effects of using a different audio driver? (such as an ALC880)
[02:32] <tmapj> maybe someone could tell me how to set the bluetooth configuration file back to original settings?
[02:32] <nickrud> VSpike that will restore the kernel to /boot , then you can massage whatever menu.lst you are using
[02:32] <musikgoat> !patience | tmapj
[02:33] <nickrud> VSpike to be clear, you start the dpkg -l stuff immediately after doing the chroot
[02:34] <pianoboy3333> Is it possible to do video chat over AIM in linux? How can I?

[02:38] <SonicComKid> mount won't mount DAA/NRG, etc.
[02:39] <BZWingZero> Leefmc, yes. with xrandr
[02:39] <nickrud> SonicComKid ah, gisomount won't either then
[02:39] <chuy_max> bieb, read about ntfs-3g, you can mount with kernel driver but its unsafe
[02:39] <Leefmc> BZWingZero: K, ty
[02:39] <Angelic> I've been trying to make compiz work on 945 for the past few hours...did the SKIP_CHECKS=yes...still won't work. can anyone help please
[02:39] <chuy_max> SonicComKid, you can mount some of those using fuseiso
[02:39] <nickrud> Angelic you could try asking in #compiz-fusion , they are very knowledgeable if they're awake
[02:40] <forge_> Hi.
[02:40] <SonicComKid> fuseiso?..  does that also support emulation modes?
[02:40] <Angelic> nickrud: thanks...will do that
[02:40] <forge_> How do I force Ubuntu to install an older version of a supported app.  I.e. FireFox 2.0 (instead of the 3.x default)
[02:40] <tmapj> can anyone help me? my computer keeps booting to the bluetooth configuration file.
[02:41] <adred> hi, would like to know what's the command to chech the version of kernel i am using? if i am going to reinstall it, would it be ok?
[02:41] <adred> *check
[02:41] <nickrud> adred uname -r gives you the kernel version
[02:41] <chuy_max> SonicComKid, its a module to mount image files like: .ISO, .BIN, .MDF, .IMG and .NRG
[02:41] <will01> what would happen if i used an ALC880 codec when my laptop spits out ALC888 when i run cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#*
[02:42] <chuy_max> !fuseiso | SonicComKid
[02:42]  * Rampage is now rampageoberon
[02:42] <nickrud> adred and you can reinstall it safely
[02:42] <nickrud> !info fuseiso
[02:42] <chelz> anyone know of a good way to get an application to minimize to the Notification Area if the program doesn't do it by itself?

[02:43] <nickrud> adred no clue about apparmor, I've left it alone.
[02:43] <adred> nickrud, ok thanks anyway..
[02:43] <tmapj> can anyone help me? my computer keeps booting to the bluetooth configuration file.
[02:43] <SonicComKid> that !fuseiso command you typed for the bot didn't do anything
[02:43] <z32> how do u get wireless internet to work? it simply wont work
[02:43] <Starnestommy> z32: what kind of wireless card do you have?
[02:43] <nickrud> chelz alltray claims to do that
[02:44] <SonicComKid> I looked at it, it looks a bit complicated. Also you still haven't said if it does full emulation or not
[02:44] <chelz> nickrud: thanks for the tip! :)
[02:44] <adred> nickrud, computer says my kernel version is 2.6.24-18-generic. do you know what's the right package for that?

[02:44] <nickrud> SonicComKid http://fuse.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/FuseIso
[02:44] <randomshadowbmg> wont let me reinstlal, upgrade, or do anything to it
[02:45] <randomshadowbmg> i cant run my updates because of it
[02:45] <nickrud> randomshadowbmg   run   sudo apt-get -f install , and put the complete output on paste.ubuntu.com
[02:45] <nickrud> adred that's the latest kernel for 8.04
[02:45] <nickrud> adred you would get    linux-image-2.6.24-18-generic
[02:46] <tmapj> can anyone help me? my computer keeps booting to the bluetooth configuration file.
[02:46] <randomshadowbmg> doesnt work

[02:47] <Leefmc> Question: This is going to sound stupid, but in the choose a wallpaper window, you have a bunch of images. How do you choose your wallpaper? I assume you simply click the wallpaper you want, but mine takes forever. I can give it 1 minute, or 20, and it doesn't seem to just simply change. To make it change, i generally just spam click the wallpaper i want.. am i doing something wrong?

[02:48] <clarezoe> nickrud, thanks, I've searched a lot, and found crossover was the solution, but I don't want to install crossover only for this reason. But I know crossover is based on wine, why can't we use wine then, I'm so confused.

[02:53] <afallenhope> nickrud: so that they can ssh into my box
[02:53] <fbc> nickrud, so the 5v@2 consumes less energy... by that formula..
[02:53] <nickrud> fbc yes. Assuming dc
[02:53] <fbc> yep..
[02:53] <darth> tmapj, no unfortunately no, i dont do support

[02:53] <rodrigo> hey guys... do you know any dapper to gutsy, server, upgrade howto?

[02:54] <tmapj> darth wont that screw up my bluetooth if i delete the whole file?
[02:54] <Starnestommy> WIDESPREADpanic: you're asking in a channek about ubuntu, so you're really not going to get anywhere with that question

[02:55] <Starnestommy> tmapj: with what?

[02:55] <sink> i ve a little problem with iptable-restore
[02:55] <vipur> exit
[02:56] <tmapj> Starnestommy, every time i boot my pc it goes into the bluetooth configuration file, and its difficult to get out of it
[02:56] <nickrud> rodrigo https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardyUpgrades  better
[02:56] <oyvan> exit
[02:56] <fbc> WIDESPREADpanic, you could probably ask the same question the fedora channel and get good reasons why fedora should be your choice.. it just really what you feel comfortable with...
[02:56] <`jAguAr> where is the list of updates in the /etc folder?

[03:00] <tmapj> that was rude

[03:03] <darth> tmapj, what are you talking about?
[03:03] <nickrud> impal3r yes, wubi exists as a file in windows, not on it's own partition
[03:03] <sapph424> So GRUB's hd0 is essentially the same thing as Ubuntu's hda, and I should just leave it be?
[03:03] <rampageoberon> anyone know if usermod -L <user> works to kill users logged in via ssh?
[03:03] <darth> fbc: dont think i can reply you becuase im not regged
[03:03] <musikgoat> sapph424: yes
[03:03] <Starnestommy> impal3r: yes, because dual boots use partitions, but wubi is a file that looks like a partition
[03:04] <tmapj> nickrud the thing is it loads the configuration file before i even log in

[03:06] <mystery_> hi
[03:06] <impal3r> but i think i remember something abbout initramfs
[03:07] <Starnestommy> impal3r: that sounds like it could be a filesystem error.  Check the putput of the command "dmesg"
[03:07] <sapph424> harp: A google search for 'firefox protocol handler' should point you in the right direction.
[03:07] <tmapj> can anyone help me? my computer keeps booting to the bluetooth configuration file.
[03:07] <harpreet> Starnestommy, i tried it , didnt work...only links appear...it doesnt get dialed...i installed opera too..and tried there..still no luck
[03:08] <nickrud> tmapj I think you need to give more detail, what configuration file, how is it presented, when do you see it, etc.
[03:08] <tmapj> Starnestommy, would you know how to reset the bluetooth configuration file back to it's original settings?
[03:08] <sink> i've a problem with iptables. with filter table, i made  lsmod, the module appears to be active, y do modprobe iptable_filter and not fails, with modconf its appears to be active too... im using ubuntu 5.10 and iptables 1.3.1, can someone help me or give some ideas?
[03:08] <mystery_> hi
[03:08] <Starnestommy> tmapj: there may be a copy of the default config somewhere, but I don't know where to find it
[03:08] <unavailable> how do i register my nickname?
[03:08] <alan_m> !hi | mystery_
[03:08] <alan_m> !register | unavailable
[03:08] <tmapj> nickrud can i talk to you on a messenger? yahoo gtalk msn aim?
[03:08] <mystery_> thank you
[03:08] <nickrud> sink 5.10 is well past end of life, no one is using that anymore (well, hardly anyone)
[03:08] <Starnestommy> unavailable: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#nicksetup
[03:09] <nickrud> tmapj I try to stay here, more eyes over my shoulder is good
[03:09] <IndyGunFreak> !eol
[03:09] <mystery_> does anyone here know how to use compiz
[03:09] <GT65> hi, A quick question.  I have a package that I cannot uninstal, reinstal or purge from my system.  is there a way either through Aptitude or Synaptic to clear the programme?
[03:09] <Starnestommy> unavailable: and make sure that you check your email when you register for account registration verification instructions
[03:09] <tmapj> nick its just the bluetooth configuration file
[03:09] <nickrud> IndyGunFreak long time no see
[03:09] <unavailable> k thx all
[03:09] <sapph424> harp, try this: go to about:config, create a new string called 'network.protocol-handler.app.skype' and make the value the absolute path to your skype executable
[03:09] <sink> nickrud, thats isnt the problm
[03:09] <nickrud> tmapj but you say you see it before you even log in. That's very strange, you need to explain more context
[03:09] <IndyGunFreak> Nicke_: the state of indiana is involved in a conspiracy to kill me.. 80hrs at a time..lol
[03:10] <nickrud> sink simply pointing out you probably won't get much help with it
[03:10] <releod> what is the command to set the date/time for a ubuntu8 server?
[03:10] <mystery_> Is anyone here familiar with compiz
[03:10] <sink> in ubuntu 8.04 fails too
[03:10] <IndyGunFreak> *oops, nickrud see above.. that was for you.. i've just been real busy
[03:10] <alan_m> mystery_, i believe we all are, ask your question, the other one :)
[03:10] <nickrud> IndyGunFreak yeah, I was away a lot last month myself
[03:10] <VSpike> nickrud: I think maybe that's the reason for having the separate /boot ... GRUB can't boot LVM directly it seems
[03:10] <tmapj> well after the ubuntu load bar is full it goes to the configuration file
[03:10] <nickrud> VSpike yes
[03:10] <sink> nickrud,  in ubuntu 8.04 fails too
[03:10] <tmapj> Nickrud well after the ubuntu load bar is full it goes to the configuration file
[03:11] <darth> VSpike, true, that would be the reason for separate /boot
[03:11] <IndyGunFreak> !compiz | mystery_ depends on the problem, asking here might help

[03:23] <GT65> http://paste.ubuntu.com/18946/

[03:23] <GT65> yeah, work related
[03:23] <coo|dude> can anyone here help me with my ubuntu installation?
[03:24] <coo|dude> my wireless and USB doesn't work
[03:24] <coo|dude> :(
[03:24] <ice109> is there a way to make certain windows always on top even if the program doesn't allow it
[03:24] <IndyGunFreak> !doesntwork | coo|dude
[03:24] <releod> How do I change the timezone when using the "date" command? It shows UTC, and I want it to show local (Eastern)
[03:24] <lwizardl> never heard of it
[03:24] <nickrud> GT65 oh, man, you have some serious issues. I can work around it I think. Put the contents of  /var/lib/dpkg/info/sametime-connect.prerm   on paste.ubuntu.com
[03:25] <mystery_> Quick question: whats the difference between add/remove programs and Synaptic
[03:25] <gleaken> I have a problem with an Toshiba Tecra M2, Nvidia GeForce FX chip coming back from suspend.  The display will come back, and X seems to come up, I see the cursor, but the box to enter my Password does not appear, just a tan screen with the cursor.  I can move to other VTs and the system is up and running, the display is just borked.  This is Hardy.
[03:25] <jrib> mystery_: different frontends/GUIs
[03:26] <mystery_> are they both repositories
[03:26] <IndyGunFreak> mystery_: add remove programs is specific programs.. synaptic is packages
[03:26] <GT65> http://paste.ubuntu.com/18948/
[03:26] <lostinlinux>  after i manually config it ssid and security and password for the network and static ip which is the one the for the lan not the wan right
[03:26] <lostinlinux>  and subnet and the router as the gateway right
[03:26] <lostinlinux> she gets out
[03:26] <lostinlinux>  but after a reboot I have to re do all of it everytime
[03:26] <BZWingZero> mystery_ they reference the same repositories. It is just a different way of presenting them.
[03:26] <FloodBot1> lostinlinux: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:26] <lostinlinux> why is that
[03:26] <GT65> thanks, I thought I was just being a newbie and couldn't work it out
[03:26] <mneptok> !enter > lostinlinux
[03:26] <coo|dude> ubottu: hhhmmm.. well, i know i have my wireless router working and I know i can use it in WINDOWS, but when i am using uBuntu, it can't detect any wireless network
[03:27] <mystery_> oh ok i understand
[03:27] <Starnestommy> mystery_: synaptic is more versatile, while add/remove is easier to use, although synaptic shows more packages
[03:27] <coo|dude> i read that other laptop, such as dell also hav the same prob
[03:27] <mneptok> coo|dude: it's "Windows" and "Ubuntu" ;)
[03:27] <IndyGunFreak> mneptok: that was slightly subtle.
[03:27] <sapph424> Okay, this is getting infuriating.  Every single time I try to install Ubuntu, it hangs on 'Running update-grub'.  I even went so far as to disconnect every drive other than the one I'm installing to so grub doesn't get confused, but it is STILL hanging!  Is anyone familiar with this issue that can address a way out?
[03:27] <coo|dude> mneptok: i dun get it
[03:27] <nickrud> GT65 no, this is not entry level. You've only shown me part of the file,  do   gedit /var/lib/dpkg/info/sametime-connect.prerm   and copy and paste again
[03:27] <Starnestommy> coo|dude: that sounds like a problem with your wireless card. Which model and brand is it?
[03:28] <lostinlinux> roaming mode for her used to bring up a keyring password box which is hers and used to popup a box for the network password which it doesnt anymore other then that I am lost
[03:28] <IndyGunFreak> Starnestommy: i've asked him that 3x
[03:28] <IndyGunFreak> i hink he's trolling
[03:28] <mneptok> IndyGunFreak: that's why my nickname is "The Flying Mallet"
[03:28] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[03:28] <coo|dude> Starnestommy: i am not sure what's the model and brand.. but i know my laptop is HP Pavilion TX2032AU, if that helps
[03:28] <GT65> sorry, thought I had it all.... http://paste.ubuntu.com/18949/
[03:28] <mystery_> ok i see
[03:28] <nickrud> always wondered what that nick meant
[03:29] <SpudDogg> If I were to install ubuntu on my ps3, is it possible to get it back off and have a factory ps3 again?
[03:29] <mneptok> nickrud: it also means "he who shall be given sparkly ponies" in Pali
[03:29] <harpreet> help making java work in 64 bit ?
[03:29] <IndyGunFreak> SpudDogg: lol, y ou make it sound like a virus... i imagine there is
[03:29] <IndyGunFreak> !java64
[03:29] <nickrud> mneptok loves sparkly ponies <repeat in a singsong, 3 times>
[03:30] <mystery_> ive been trying to enable extra visual effects all day and i can seem to get it work so i can use the cool feature of compiz
[03:30] <mneptok> SpudDogg: what is it you want to do with Ubuntu on the PS3?
[03:30] <SpudDogg> IndyGunFreak:  well, im not too familiar with the ps3 yet (as i have no interest in games, lol) so im just checking...
[03:30] <IndyGunFreak> SpudDogg: while i can't say for certain, i imagine yuou could.
[03:30] <mfisch> Is kubuntu-desktop broken on Intrepid for anyone else?
[03:30] <SpudDogg> mnemo:  watch my movies and use it similarly to mythtv, but without the live TV part
[03:30] <mystery_> When i check the little circle i get a white screen and my computer freezes
[03:30] <nickrud> GT65 ok, close that gedit window, then in a terminal type     gksu gedit /var/lib/dpkg/info/sametime-connect.prerm    Tell me when you have it
[03:30] <IndyGunFreak> mystery_: you havef ATI graphics?
[03:30] <mystery_> any thoughts
[03:31] <mystery_> yes
[03:31] <IndyGunFreak> thats why.
[03:31] <mneptok> SpudDogg: i watch tons of downloaded content using only XMB on the PS3
[03:31] <SpudDogg> IndyGunFreak:  i asking because when i read the install instructions it says that after installing, just reboot the ps3 and it will boot into the linux install, therefore, I'm hesitant
[03:31] <SpudDogg> mneptok:  XMB?  googling
[03:31] <GT65> yep
[03:31] <GT65> got it
[03:31] <jpw27_> with SSH, is there any way to run a process on the remote computer using the host computer's environment
[03:31] <mystery_> any thought on what i can do to fix it
[03:31] <genii> mfisch: Firstly you're in #ubuntu and not #kubuntu chnnel, secondly Ibex is not supported in either channel yet.
[03:31] <IndyGunFreak> mystery_: try asking #compiz-fusion or in the forumms.. thats a known issue w/ the ati driver, id on't know of a fix, sorry
[03:32] <darth> jpw27_, yes use x forwarding for that
[03:32] <nickrud> GT65 ok, now insert a line after #! /bin/bash , and type     exit 0    there
[03:32] <mystery_> ok
[03:32] <mfisch> sorry for asking
[03:32] <GT65> done
[03:32] <wilsonjr> Hellow :)

[03:33] <jpw27_> jw
[03:33] <SpudDogg> mneptok:  how would i access my samba shares?
[03:33] <nickrud> GT65 ok save and close, then run    sudo apt-get remove --purge sametime-connect
[03:33] <mneptok> SpudDogg: you don't. you use MediaTomb.
[03:33] <SpudDogg> googling
[03:33] <mneptok> !info mediatomb
[03:33] <IndyGunFreak> !ati | mystery_ you can try looking at this FAQ
