[09:02] <ubotu> Ways to automate installation of Ubuntu on multiple machines are described at https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu/installation-guide/i386/automatic-install.html - See also !cloning
[09:02] <Slart> doug__: "sudo cat /proc/asound/version" might work
[09:02] <IndyGunFreak> nbkr: you have no idea how amazing it is till u use it.
[09:02] <MenZa> IndyGunFreak: wow
[09:02] <MenZa> IndyGunFreak: awesome
[09:02] <MenZa> thanks for that
[09:02] <ikonia> IndyGunFreak: hi
[09:02] <nbkr> IndyGunFreak, I knew --set-selection and --get-selection - but I didn't know that it is called "clone". Yes, thats a really cool feature.
[09:03] <doug__> Slart,  thnks
[09:03] <IndyGunFreak> MenZa: i was planning a reinstall, and was dreadig all the reinstalling/removing, ti does it all automgically.
[09:03] <shifty> is there any html editor that can connect to a server using frontpage extensions?
[09:03] <IndyGunFreak> ikonia: ! where the heck have you been
[09:03] <ikonia> IndyGunFreak taking a break
[09:03] <RAmbus> Some know of a p2p software different than limewire?
[09:03] <ikonia> joining -offtopic now
[09:03] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[09:03] <MenZa> IndyGunFreak: that combined with a seperate /home = God.
[09:03] <Pici> !p2p | RAmbus
[09:03] <ubotu> RAmbus: Conventional P2P clients: Limewire/GTK-Gnutella/Frostwire (Gnutella Network).  -  BitTorrent: see !torrent  -  Direct connect: try valknut.  -  Also see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/P2PFileSharing for general information.
[09:04] <RAmbus> thanks
[09:04] <Pici> !away > ShadowAway
[09:04] <IndyGunFreak> MenZa: well, i don't do separate home...lol, i'm not sure it would be God anyways..lol
[09:04] <adnan_> any idea how to get grub to allow me to boot into my other distro? I'm having probs >_<
[09:04] <Ray_at_UW> /QUIT Going to Try to Install Nvidia 5200 FX
[09:04] <Ray_at_UW> ... I fail. :(
[09:04] <IndyGunFreak> MenZa: maybe Gods Assistant.
[09:04] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[09:04] <Ray_at_UW> /QUIT
[09:04] <Ray_at_UW> QUIT
[09:04] <Ray_at_UW> ...
[09:04] <apo_> Oo
[09:04] <Ray_at_UW> What's the quit command?
[09:05] <nbkr> adnan_, Grub ist configured in /boot/grub/menu.lst - you can add other distros there.
[09:05] <IdleOne> Ray_at_UW: why you being a troll?
[09:05] <Ray_at_UW> IdleOne: I'm not. I really just don't know.
[09:05] <genii> Ray_at_UW: 1 slash then the word quit
[09:05] <IdleOne> it is /quit
[09:05] <nbkr> Ray_at_UW, / quit (without the space)
[09:05] <Ray_at_UW> genii, nbkr: oh... no caps. Thanks
[09:06] <adnan_> nbkr I know but when i try to add the parameters i get file not found when trying to boot the distro i;m not sure if i am adding the correct info
[09:06] <PriceChild> !netsplit
[09:06] <ubotu> netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit
[09:06] <dave_____> question, ive just put in a netgear router to split my internet connection between two computers, but now my web server wont work, i've already set up port forwarding, webserver worked fine before i put it in, but now the outside world cant access it
[09:07] <MenZa> dave_____: Which port are you forwarding?
[09:07] <nbkr> adnan_, please paste your menu.lst to pastebin and give some information to which partitions you installed the other distro.
[09:07] <IdleOne> dave_____: think you might need to restart the server also but MenZa might know more
[09:07] <dave_____> 80
[09:07] <dave_____> menza?
[09:07] <MenZa> hmm
[09:08] <MenZa> That should be it.
[09:08] <MenZa> But restart Apache as IdleOne says
[09:08] <dave_____> ok i'll try that
[09:08] <croweboy> can someone help me with gparted
[09:08] <MenZa> !someone | croweboy
[09:08] <ubotu> croweboy: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[09:09] <dave_____> nope nothing but i am getting
[09:09] <dave_____> apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using <IP_ADDRESS> for ServerName
[09:09] <MenZa> nevermind that, I get that on my server
[09:09] <dave_____> yeah i always got that before and it always worked
[09:09] <MenZa> What is the IP of the server?
[09:10] <dave_____> <IP_ADDRESS>
[09:10] <croweboy> i get an error when i try to partition my second hard drive which is currently unallocated space
[09:10] <genii> MenZa: not LAN IP there
[09:10] <MenZa> works for me, dave_____.
[09:10] <dyrne> dave_____: looks like 80 is already forwarded
[09:10] <docta_v> use the ServerName declaration
[09:10] <dave_____> really?
[09:10] <dave_____> you see projectlink?
[09:11] <MenZa> I do indeed, dave_____
[09:11] <dave_____> wow
[09:11] <dave_____> strange, its not working from my computer
[09:11] <MenZa> try pinging it from your computer
[09:11] <rambo3> dave_____, type in browser : <IP_ADDRESS>
[09:12] <xpop> hi all
[09:12] <bertrand> hi
[09:12] <dave_____> yeah i got that to work as localhost but i assumed since i couldnt get the ip to work it wasnt working for anyone else
[09:12] <dave_____> ping is coming back fine
[09:12] <MenZa> weird
[09:12] <croweboy> is it always this difficult to find help?
[09:12] <bertrand> no I don't think so
[09:12] <croweboy> noobie here
[09:12] <Pici> dave_____: Some ISPs do not allow servers to be hosted on port 80.
[09:12] <xpop> problem with lamp?
[09:12] <nbkr> croweboy, depends on the problem.
[09:12] <dyrne> croweboy: what error?
[09:13] <apo_> croweboy: You haven't asked any questions
[09:13] <bertrand> true!
[09:13] <dave_____> yeah ive had a webserver on here for awhile no problems but i just put in a netgear router
[09:13] <croweboy> well its says it couldnt complete the operation
[09:13] <bertrand> wich one?
[09:13] <croweboy> yeah i did,,, i guess everyone was buisy
[09:13] <MenZa> gparted. What operation, croweboy?
[09:13] <Jowi> dave_____, works from the outside at least. can you access http://<IP_ADDRESS> or your http://your.lan.add.ress? if not, perhaps your /etc/hosts is incorrect.
[09:13] <dyrne> dave_____: some odd nat thing i guess maybe
[09:14] <rambo3> dave_____, fix your /etc/hosts if you want to access it via IP. and type !lamp to fix error msg
[09:14] <croweboy> well im trying to set up a partition on my second hard drive,,,its completely unallocated space right now
[09:14] <xpop> problems with driver ?
[09:14] <Soup_> Whats the Best OSX like stable dock??

[09:14] <MenZa> croweboy: weird. :/
[09:14] <MenZa> !usb | kbj
[09:14] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about usb - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi

[09:15] <kbj> !usb
[09:15] <MenZa> croweboy: try doing it from the gparted livec
[09:15] <nbkr> Soup_, depends on you. You're the only one who can decide what is the best for you.
[09:15] <MenZa> livecd*
[09:15] <Bob-san> any chance there is a P2 400-optimized Ubuntu?
[09:15] <jrails> exit
[09:15] <Sentinel> PLEASE can someone please take a look at this? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=541144
[09:15] <MenZa> kbj: Nothing there. Could you do sudo fdisk -l for me?
[09:15] <Soup_> well some are full of bugs
[09:15] <croweboy> thats where i have the problem
[09:15] <Soup_> Im looking for a good ONE
[09:15] <nbkr> shifty, Frontpage is the only application that can use that extensions, I think.
[09:16] <MenZa> bmhm: I suggest you wait.
[09:16] <Jowi> Soup_, "best" I wouldn't know but you have some to chose from; gdesklets, cairo-dock, Avant Window Navigator, kooldock, kdocker
[09:16] <dave_____> weird, its not working from downstairs computer either
[09:16] <shifty> nbkr: is there no way to connect to the extension from a different program?
[09:16] <croweboy> i go into gparted and create a new what ever it is on that drive tell it to format to ext3 and it tells me it couldnt do it
[09:16] <Soup_> thanks!
[09:16] <croweboy> what ever it is
[09:16] <dave_____> can somebody test http://projectlink.homelinux.com/turner for me tell me what you see?
[09:16] <croweboy> lol
[09:16] <bmhm> MenZa: how long? I waitet a few days already
[09:16] <Jowi> s/kdocker/kxdocker
[09:16] <kbj> MenZa: ITs a sata disk. Seems its /dev/sda
[09:16] <bmhm> MenZa: the thread is already on page 4 or so
[09:16] <MenZa> kbj: Have you setup a partition yet?
[09:17] <croweboy> um tried
[09:17] <nbkr> shifty, I'm not aware of any program that could use the extensions except Frontpage.
[09:17] <MenZa> kbj: I suggest you try opening gparted with gksudo gparted
[09:17] <arghh2D2> Can anyone look at this Pastebin http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36355/ of my /etc/fstab and help me to auto mount my windows partition?
[09:17] <Urilockz> Does anyone know if the 3dblender is the same blender as in mac?
[09:17] <croweboy> ok im lookin at the the new partition screen
[09:17] <shifty> nbkr: ok, i just didnt know if it was a certain port or protocol that i could just make it connect to
[09:17] <kbj> MenZa: No just plugged it in.. Its so long since I did it last time.. I think I used something like Gparted or something, but I slightly remember there is something new for this and its included in Ubuntu 7.04? Or am I wrong?
[09:17] <xpop> someone could help me with mysql-php problem?
[09:18] <MenZa> I suggest you create the partition with gparted, kbj
[09:18] <TheZanke> How would I make a video on linux? I wanna show my friend Beryl..
[09:18] <croweboy> am i suposed to put any space at the beging or end or the partition
[09:18] <arghh2D2> Can anyone look at this Pastebin http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36355/ of my /etc/fstab and help me to auto mount my windows partition?  Is this possible?

[09:18] <philwhln> hi, i'm having some problems with my machine since I did the kernel updates
[09:18] <mojojojo_> Is it possible to configure actions for additional mouse buttons?
[09:18] <kbj> MenZa: gksudo gparted does nothing.
[09:18] <nbkr> arghh2D2, Whats the error you are getting when trying to mount the partition manually?
[09:18] <nbkr> !buttons | mojojojo_
[09:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about buttons - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:19] <nbkr> !mouse | mojojojo_
[09:19] <MenZa> kbj: sudo aptitude install gparted then
[09:19] <ubotu> mojojojo_: Enabling extra mouse buttons: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ManyButtonsMouseHowto  - Enabling serial mouse: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SerialMouseHowto
[09:19] <philwhln> everytime I write a file in vim it freezes vim for 5-10secs
[09:19] <mojojojo_> nbkr: thanks
[09:19] <godlygeek> philwhln: only in vim?
[09:19] <philwhln> also in crontab
[09:19] <philwhln> i think it's a disk writing issue
[09:20] <godlygeek> crontab -e launches $EDITOR, which is probably vim.  :)
[09:20] <logixoul> How do I install a local deb file from the command line?
[09:20] <nicolah> is there a way to get latest gtk+ (2.11.6) without upgrading to gutsy ?
[09:20] <MenZa> logixoul: sudo dpkg -i <file>
[09:20] <philwhln> godlygeek: true :)
[09:20] <nbkr> logixoul, sudo dpkg -i debfile.deb
[09:20] <logixoul> nbkr: MenZa: thanks
[09:20] <MenZa> not a problem. :)
[09:20] <philwhln> godlygeek: let me try another editor...
[09:20] <vlt> Hello. When I copy files from/to a pmounted usb media I get no progres information. The file seems to be written immediately and I never know when it's finished and if I can pumount it. Any idea what could be the problem here?
[09:20] <xpop> php don't work with mysql
[09:20] <jacob_> can somebody guide me through the steps to uninstall ubuntu on this page, i'm having difficulties  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GoogleEarth#head-c1c56a1bb75c740a3a33269b946d931272b451f6
[09:21] <MenZa> vlt: I think pmount uses async, which means it just tells the computer to write to the drive later
[09:21] <discor1> I installed gutsy tribe 5 but the repositores don't seem to work, anybody using gutsy could let me know their entries?
[09:21] <MenZa> vlt: which I personally think is stupid.
[09:21] <nbkr> vlt, How do you copy the file? Drag 'n' drop on Gnome or via console?
[09:21] <jacob_> uninstall googleearth i mean
[09:21] <MenZa> !source-o-matic discor1
[09:21] <discor1> MenZa: ?
[09:21] <MenZa> vlt: Try umounting it
[09:21] <MenZa> !source-o-matic |  discor1
[09:21] <ubotu> discor1: source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[09:21] <vlt> nbkr: `cp file /media/PHONE` in this case.
[09:21] <MenZa> there, discor1
[09:21] <ron__> why can't I load a java ide?
[09:21] <arghh2D2> nbkr, in nautilus the mount error is: You are not privileged to mount this volume.
[09:21] <godlygeek> ron__: do you have one installed?  ;)
[09:21] <kbj> MenZa: Great that worked fine, do you know if its tune2fs or mke2fs I use to remove those 5% reserved for root on the drive?
[09:22] <MenZa> kbj: No idea.
[09:22] <jacob_> can somebody guide me through the steps of uninstalling google earth using this site? i'm having difficulties https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GoogleEarth#head-c1c56a1bb75c740a3a33269b946d931272b451f6
[09:22] <nbkr> vlt, cp doesn't show a progress bar. If the bash prompt returns writing should be finished. Use umount then to savely remove the disk.
[09:22] <godlygeek> ron__: sudo aptitude install eclipse
[09:22] <MenZa> Partitioning is so deviously simple in gparted I don't bother with the cli for that, kbj
[09:22] <nbkr> arghh2D2, try "sudo mount /dev/sda2" on the console.
[09:22] <Ax3> anyone know how to make a vmware session running on ubuntu internet connectable? my ubuntu machine connects wirelessly to my home network, and i'd like the vmware session to do the same.
[09:22] <Evanlec> !eclipse
[09:22] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about eclipse - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:23] <godlygeek> jacob_: what are you having problems with?
[09:23] <MenZa> Ax3: use bridged networking.
[09:23] <jacob_> godlygeek, uninstalling google earth
[09:23] <nbkr> Ax3, VMware should normaly install a virtual network that is briged to the real network. Connect the virtual network card to that network.
[09:23] <jacob_> godlygeek i entered the commands but only one of them works
[09:23] <Evanlec> google earth is EVIL
[09:23] <vlt> MenZa: I tried it several times. It finally works when rw access is over but I always have to wait and try (and try again) ...
[09:23] <godlygeek> Ax3: that should have just worked... try re-running "sudo vmware-config.pl"
[09:24] <godlygeek> jacob_: what was the output?
[09:24] <kbj> MenZa: Yes it surely is.. but the hard part which actually isnt hard, but nobody does it is removing that 5% reserved, and Im not needing it :D
[09:24] <godlygeek> jacob_: use a pastebin if it's more than 1 or 2 lines.
[09:24] <Ax3> MenZa / nbkr / godlygeek : ok thanks will try those suggestions and get back to you
[09:24] <Ax3> brb
[09:24] <izm91> libgconfbackend-xml.so file not found.  This is in /usr/lib/Gconf/2/ and prevented me from logging in to my session.
[09:24] <MenZa> vlt: I suggest you create an fstab entry for it
[09:24] <MenZa> !fstab | vlt
[09:24] <ubotu> vlt: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[09:24] <godlygeek> jacob_: actually, wait: that's not MANY commands that's ONE command.  :)
[09:24] <jacob_> godlygeek http://pastebin.com/m55e21321
[09:25] <godlygeek> jacob_: don't hit enter at the end of each line, paste them all together with a space between each line, then press enter
[09:25] <izm91> i linked libgconfbackend-oldxml.so to the missing file, and i can log in, but everything is messed up.  Does anyone know the problem here?
[09:25] <jacob_> godlygeek, let me try that
[09:25] <godlygeek> philwhln: any luck with a different editor?
[09:26] <Jack_Sparrow> what character do you use between multiple commands on one line in a terminal
[09:26] <izm91> can't alt-tab.. don't see any windows in the task bar... fonts changed
[09:26] <godlygeek> jacob_: ';'
[09:26] <Jack_Sparrow> thanks
[09:27] <izm91> window close/max/min buttons are in the middle of the window bar
[09:27] <godlygeek> philwhln: you don't even need an editor, you can just use 'touch' and see how long that takes, hehe
[09:27] <philwhln> tried gedit, but i think it saves asynchronously. the status bar indicates it's saving the file for about 5 seconds. hard to tell. a perl one-liners is quick. installing emacs now
[09:27] <MenZa> philwhln: try nano
[09:27] <godlygeek> philwhln: you should have nano
[09:27] <MenZa> philwhln: I know it feels odd when you're used to vim
[09:27] <jacob_> godlygeek: http://pastebin.com/m52a478e9
[09:27] <MenZa> philwhln: I keep filling my files with :q, j, k and ls :/
[09:27] <godlygeek> s/odd/painful
[09:27] <^Ocean^> okay, I just got a fancy new 22 Wide Screen LCD Display...   Works nice, Except all my fonts now like like CRAP    anything i should be changing too get readable text  ?
[09:27] <vlt> nbkr: I don't need a real progress bar. But 0.453 seconds for copying a 10 M file sounds a little too futuristic ...
[09:27] <wafflebrain> Ubuntu is crashing when I try to load the livecd on my laptop, it gets to "loading hardware drivers" then power is cut off, any idea whats up?
[09:27] <discor1> thanks MenZa
[09:27] <MenZa> godlygeek: yeah :P
[09:28] <xtknight> ^Ocean^, use it at the native resolution?
[09:28] <discor1> wish that sources list would work off the install tho
[09:28] <xtknight> 1680x1050 for a 22" LCD
[09:28] <nbkr> vlt, You could check the two files with md5sum. If the sums are equal the coping worked.
[09:28] <godlygeek> jacob_: is it removed, though?  what happens if you type 'googleearth' into a console now?
[09:28] <^Ocean^> xtknight, Im running at 1680x1050 which is what my monitor says
[09:28] <irule> e>	hi there, I just installed webmin, and got the message "Error - Access denied for <IP_ADDRESS>" once I logged into https://<IP_ADDRESS>:10000/ with firefox, BUT it never asked me for an username or password, and if I use http://<IP_ADDRESS>:10000/ ie NO "S" in https, I get the message "Error - Bad Request, This web server is running in SSL mode. Try the URL https://<IP_ADDRESS>:10000/...
[09:28] <irule> ...instead." any toughts? thanks
[09:29] <croweboy>  /msg MenZa hey menz
[09:29] <fulio> how do i install GDm themes?
[09:29] <xtknight> ^Ocean^, are you sure?  what the monitor says in the OSD may not necessarily mean you are actually running at that res on the video card.
[09:29] <MenZa> fulio: Login screens to GDM? System -> Administration -> Login Window. Choose "Add"
[09:29] <stefg> ^Ocean^: native resoluton (!see !fixres) and using subpixel hinting (in the fonts control applet)
[09:29] <Jack_Sparrow> fulio: system adminlogin window... drag and drop
[09:29] <philwhln> MenZa: yeah, really don't want to move from vim. you can always tell a vim user by the extra "i"'s in there text
[09:29] <xtknight> ^Ocean^, if you have video card scaling enabled it can show full res on the monitor.  otherwise check system->preferences->fonts (or Appearance for gutsy)
[09:29] <fulio> MenZa, thankyou
[09:29] <^Ocean^> well the NVIDIA-Settings Program tells me im runniing 1680x1050
[09:29] <jacob_> godlygeek: it says: bash: googleearth: command not foud
[09:29] <MenZa> philwhln: heh, of course. :)
[09:30] <MenZa> fulio: :)
[09:30] <godlygeek> jacob_: so, yeah, i'd say it's removed.  :)
[09:30] <xtknight> ^Ocean^, ok.  while you're there what does it say for "frontend" and "backend" resolution?
[09:30] <^Ocean^> xtknight, were would i find that ?
[09:30] <godlygeek> philwhln: are you running on a laptop or a desktop?
[09:30] <jacob_> godlygeek, it's still listed under "internet" in the applications menu
[09:30] <xtknight> ^Ocean^, GPU - 0(asdf)-->DFP-0 (LCD monitor name)
[09:30] <stefg> !webmin | irule
[09:30] <xtknight> ^Ocean^, should be at the bottom
[09:30] <ubotu> irule: webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system
[09:31] <godlygeek> jacob_: what does clicking on it do?
[09:31] <jacob_> godlygeek, let me see
[09:31] <MenZa> godlygeek: You could remove /opt/googleearth where it's stored..
[09:31] <drock> i love webmin, thats hy I couldnt install it the other day
[09:31] <jacob_> godlygeek, it runs the program
[09:31] <^Ocean^> xtknight, all it says is Dgital Viberance,  and Image Sharpening
[09:31] <Haz> thanks for the help, menza
[09:31] <wafflebrain> Ubuntu is crashing at the "loading drivers" prompt when I try to load the live CD on my laptop, would could the problem be?
[09:31] <xtknight> ^Ocean^, ok.  i will assume you are actually running 1680x1050 then.  try different settings in the Fonts control panel
[09:32] <Broc223> is there some de facto HDTV tunes for use with linux?
[09:32] <jacob_> godlygeek, maybe if i enter the directory where i downloaded the bin file it could work
[09:32] <drock> I just installed webmin from source and it orks ok.
[09:32] <godlygeek> jacob_: no, that doesn't make a difference
[09:32] <MenZa> HAZ
[09:32] <Haz> menza ^_^
[09:32] <Jack_Sparrow> jacob_: I just installed it yesterday and it has a different path from the instructions they give... example of mine    /home/jack/google-earth//googleearth %f
[09:32] <MenZa> ;o
[09:32] <jacob_> godlygeek ok
[09:32] <godlygeek> MenZa: look at his pastebin here: http://pastebin.com/m52a478e9
[09:32] <godlygeek> MenZa: he did remove /opt/google-earth!  :-/
[09:32] <RobDaGlob> @wafflebrain : What version of the live CD are you using?
[09:32] <MenZa> godlygeek: Then it's gone.
[09:33] <mariocesar_bo> Hi guys, I want to share a printer on a windows pc to ubuntu, I can install the printer but, the printer on windows  keeps the job on the printer task list and do nothing
[09:33] <philwhln> godlygeek: MenZa: can't replicate it in nano, but now the problem has gone in vim. but it will be back
[09:33] <robbster3> hey alll.I've completely broken my system and need some dpkg expert to help me put it back together....
[09:33] <godlygeek> MenZa: but he said he can still run it by clicking on the picture.  :)
[09:33] <MenZa> philwhln: Hmm
[09:33] <MenZa> godlygeek: oh. O_o
[09:33] <godlygeek> s/picture/icon
[09:33] <stefg> wafflebrain: the chipset might not be well supported off the Live CD. you might need extra parameters (see !boot) to get it going
[09:33] <jacob_> jack_sparrow, how can i remove it from that directory?
[09:33] <MenZa> godlygeek: check where the launcher points?
[09:33] <philwhln> godlygeek: running an dell desktop
[09:33] <notype> x cierto
[09:33] <stefg> !boot | wafflebrain

[09:33] <godlygeek> i use openbox.  i have no idea how those menus work.
[09:33] <notype> ya he solventado lo del teclado del ibook
[09:33] <notype> :-)
[09:33] <MenZa> godlygeek: ah.
[09:33] <Jack_Sparrow> jacob_: Not sure what you are trying to do as I was not following along...
[09:33] <wafflebrain> !boot
[09:33] <^Ocean^> okay, What font do "most" people run ?  Im useing sans currently
[09:34] <robbster3> I wanted to re=install over an existingin installation and it failed. Now my dpkg lists a whole lot of packages that fail configure. any help?
[09:34] <godlygeek> MenZa: can you help him out with checking those launchers?  :)
[09:34] <discor1> MenZa:  do you know why the gstreamer codecs package wont install in gutsy?
[09:34] <stefg> !es | notype
[09:34] <ubotu> notype: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[09:34] <jacob_> jack_sparrow, can you guide me through the steps to uninstall google earth?
[09:34] <nbkr> robbster3, try "sudo dpkg --configure -a" that will reconfigure all not configured packages.
[09:34] <MenZa> jacob_: Could you right click your Applications Menu, and choose "Edit Menus", click "Internet" in the left panel and then click "Google Earth" in them ain window?
[09:34] <MenZa> discor1: Works for me.
[09:34] <xtknight> ^Ocean^, a screenshot of the fonts would be helpful as wlel
[09:34] <xtknight> well*
[09:35] <stefg> !gutsy | discor1
[09:35] <ubotu> discor1: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[09:35] <godlygeek> philwhln: what's your hard drive?  /dev/[sh] d[abc] ?
[09:35] <Jack_Sparrow> jacob_: NOt sure why you would want to uninstall... I assume you would just delete the folder and the menu link
[09:35] <jacob_> menza that doesn't uninstall the program
[09:35] <MenZa> jacob_: then right click Google Earth, choose "Properties". What does it say in the "command" option?
[09:35] <MenZa> jacob_: I know that. I need some information though.
[09:36] <Evanlec> !filesystem
[09:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about filesystem - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:36] <croweboy> MenZa i got the drive partitioned but i dont know what to do now
[09:36] <Evanlec> !ext3
[09:36] <ubotu> ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org
[09:36] <MenZa> croweboy: What was it you were doing again?
[09:36] <philwhln> godlygeek: /dev/sda1
[09:36] <discor1> MenZa: when I use the Install multimedia codecs i get W: Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/a/a52dec/liba52-0.7.4_0.7.4-11_i386.deb
[09:36] <discor1>   Connection failed
[09:36] <croweboy> im trying to make my second drive useable on ubuntu
[09:36] <discor1> but pasting it into my webrowser works fine
[09:37] <croweboy> i partitioned it ,,, but it wont mount it
[09:37] <godlygeek> philwhln: try doing a 'sudo hdparm -y /dev/sda' followed by a 'touch ~/testfile' : is that the delay that you see?
[09:37] <MenZa> discor1: hmm, sudo aptitude update?
[09:37] <MenZa> croweboy: Have you created a mountpoint?
[09:37] <croweboy> um no ,,, whats that
[09:37] <stefg> discor1 : please take any quetions for gutsy to #ubuntu+1, this cahnnel is scrolling fast enough
[09:37] <MenZa> croweboy: What file system did you use?
[09:37] <jacob_> menza, it says....
[09:37] <robbster3> nbkr: dpkg --configure fails with de[endency issues?

[09:38] <MenZa> No, that's not it
[09:38] <MenZa> wtf.
[09:38] <nbkr> robbster3, try "sudo apt-get -f install"
[09:38] <godlygeek> lol, when bots go bad..
[09:38] <MenZa> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount - that, croweboy
[09:38] <philwhln> godlygeek: ok, will do
[09:38] <MenZa> godlygeek: Aye, thank God I have a yubnub command for the wiki
[09:38] <croweboy> ok thanks
[09:38] <^Ocean^> xtknight, okay, good place too post a SS ?
[09:38] <jacob_> menza, /home/jacob/google-earth %f
[09:38] <MenZa> jacob_: What's it say then?
[09:38] <robbster3> nbkr: same issue.
[09:38] <discor1> MenZa I tried sudo apt-get update
[09:38] <MenZa> jacob_: sudo rm -rf ~/google-earth
[09:38] <robbster3> nbkr: it is the base -[ackages that are the issue... :(
[09:38] <Evanlec> !reiserfs
[09:38] <ubotu> reiserfs is a journalling file system, in benchmarks it outperforms many others on I/O operations, but they take notoriously long to mount.
[09:39] <nbkr> robbster3, Did you edit /etc/apt/sources.list ?
[09:39] <xtknight> ^Ocean^, http://imageshack.us/
[09:39] <Evanlec> whats that wiki on linux filesystems ?
[09:39] <robbster3> no
[09:39] <TheZanke> with xvidcap can i capture my entire screen?
[09:39] <jacob_> menza, what now?
[09:39] <robbster3> still points to the cdrom only ...
[09:39] <MenZa> jacob_: did you run that command?
[09:39] <TheZanke> keeps closing when i select my whole screen
[09:39] <jacob_> menza yes
[09:39] <nbkr> robbster3, so what did you do?
[09:39] <vlt> MenZa: What is the advantage of creating an fstab entry for the usb device? This is the current line from mtab: "/dev/sdb1 /media/PHONE vfat rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,noatime,uid=1000,utf8,shortname=lower 0 0". Anything here to improve with a separate entry?
[09:39] <MenZa> discor1: I'd give you my sources.list, but that's in Denmark.
[09:40] <MenZa> vlt: mtab just shows what partitions are mounted
[09:40] <MenZa> as far as I know
[09:40] <robbster3> I attempted to restore the packages to the initial installed versions.
[09:40] <MenZa> you could copy that line to your fstab, vlt
[09:40] <MenZa> I'd add "user" and "sync" flags though
[09:40] <nbkr> robbster3, A downgrade then?
[09:40] <stefg> Evanlec: what do you want to do? On a desktop machine the differences are hardly noticable... no use in being fussy
[09:40] <robbster3> so I attempted to install over a running system. It failed to configure packages as part of the install...
[09:40] <robbster3> .. and now it is broken.
[09:41] <MenZa> so  /media/PHONE vfat rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,noatime,user,sync,utf8,shortname=lower 0 0
[09:41] <Evanlec> stefg so there's no performance advantage to using reiserfs?
[09:41] <jacob_> menza, i runned the  command you told me to
[09:41] <MenZa> jacob_: now right click the menu entry in your menu editor and remove it
[09:41] <robbster3> nbkr:  yeah. a downgrade.
[09:41] <MenZa> jacob_: it should be gun now
[09:41] <MenZa> jacob_: er, gone*
[09:41] <philwhln> godlygeek: i get a delay with hdparm with the message "issuing standby command"
[09:41] <dr-fish> hi, what do i do if i want to move to ubuntu from windows xp and still use both os?
[09:41] <vlt> MenZa: I'll try, thanks.
[09:41] <^Ocean^> xtknight, : Okay here is a SS http://i2.tinypic.com/5xfasll.png
[09:41] <philwhln> godlygeek: but touch is quick
[09:41] <MenZa> vlt: np :)
[09:41] <joebob777as7> hey why is this not available in ubuntu? or is there an alternative? http://pastebin.ca/681365
[09:41] <godlygeek> Evanlec: nah, don't waste your time.  It performs better for ext3 for lots of small files, worse for a few large files, and about the same on average.  :)
[09:41] <notype> thx stefg
[09:41] <MenZa> vlt: you can add "auto", too
[09:41] <nbkr> robbster3, Hm, it can probably be fixed manually, but I think it is faster to reinstall the system from scratch.
[09:42] <Evanlec> godlygeek, gotcha
[09:42] <MenZa> vlt: afterwards, to mount it, do mount /media/PHONE
[09:42] <MenZa> as your regular user
[09:42] <robbster3> nbkr: and the package selection?
[09:42] <MenZa> should mount it fine
[09:42] <jacob_> menza, what does "rm -rf" does?
[09:42] <godlygeek> philwhln: hm.  My guess was that the disk was spinning down.
[09:42] <MenZa> jacob_: remove, recursive, forced
[09:42] <dr-fish>  hi, what do i do if i want to move to ubuntu from windows xp and still use both os?
[09:42] <stefg> Evanlec: i like reiserfs, and feel it's quicker and less troublesome than ext3. But on your average desktop you'll simply not noticing the difference to ext3
[09:42] <xtknight> ^Ocean^, how come the screenshot is 1600x1000?
[09:42] <dyrne> dr-fish: the install cd will handle that for you by default. it resizes current xp partition to free up space then asks you how much of the space you want to use for new partitions. i think i havent really used parted myself
[09:42] <MenZa> jacob_: it's used to remove folders with all their contents, basically
[09:42] <nbkr> !clone | robbster3
[09:42] <ubotu> robbster3: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type  dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages , move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type  sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && apt-get dselect-upgrade  - See also !automate
[09:42] <joebob777as7> hey why is this not available in ubuntu? or is there an alternative? http://pastebin.ca/681365
[09:42] <dyrne> dr-fish: then at boot it will ask you which os to boot
[09:42] <dr-fish> will this work with the download version?
[09:42] <xtknight> ^Ocean^, i think your card is downscaling 1600x1000->1680x1050 and that's why your screen looks bad.  upload your xorg.conf to pastebin
[09:43] <xtknight> !pastebin | ^Ocean^
[09:43] <ubotu> ^Ocean^: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[09:43] <nbkr> joebob777as7, squashfs is in ubuntu. Its used for the LiveCD.
[09:43] <godlygeek> philwhln: you did say that you were seeing that delay on other editors than vim, right?
[09:43] <philwhln> godlygeek: is that unusual? why would that just start today?
[09:43] <godlygeek> philwhln: oh.  just started today, huh?
[09:43] <Steve^> Any ideas why my ubuntu won't get assigned an IP until I run vista to get one and run ubuntu again?
[09:43] <mrmonday> what's the command for printing the current version of X?
[09:43] <godlygeek> philwhln: if you didn't just do an update, i'd guess "dying hard drive", then.
[09:44] <nbkr> philwhln, problems with the disk? Checked smartctl -H /dev/hda?
[09:44] <PriceChild> Steve^, what type of connection?
[09:44] <joebob777as7> nbkr, i can not mount a squashfs 1.0 image though it tells me that it does not support squashfs 1.0
[09:44] <Steve^> PriceChild, ethernet, to BT Homehub
[09:44] <dyrne> Steve^: so sudo dhclient eth0   on the ubuntu box doesnt work until ip is assigned after xp requests an ip?
[09:44] <siloko> hey - anyone got any experience writing udev rules?
[09:44] <PriceChild> Steve^, I have a homehub and it works perfectly
[09:44] <Steve^> PriceChild, it used to for me too, until 2 days ago
[09:44] <nbkr> joebob777as7, Did you install the squashfs-tools?
[09:44] <PriceChild> Steve^, are you using the network manager applet in the notification area?
[09:45] <PriceChild> Steve^, pastebin the output of "cat /etc/network/interfaces" please
[09:45] <Steve^> dyrne, I haven't run that command myself, but the connection manager shows <IP_ADDRESS>
[09:45] <joebob777as7> nbkr, yes
[09:45] <godlygeek> philwhln: are you seeing anything unusual in dmesg?
[09:45] <Pretor1ab> hi all
[09:45] <nbkr> joebob777as7, then what is the command you used for mounting the image?
[09:45] <stefg> joebob777as7: we had that already. squshfs support is *only* compiled in the Live CD kernels, because the Live CDs use it. If you need sqfs support on a installed system you have to patch and rebuild the kernel, no matter how long you deny to believe that
[09:45] <^Ocean^> xtknight, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36364/
[09:45] <philwhln> godlygeek: yeah, just started today, updated the kernel today
[09:46] <xtknight> ^Ocean^, ok, i see the problem.  it is downscaling 1600x1200 to 1680x1050 using what it can of 1680x1050 (yielding 1600x1200)
[09:46] <xtknight> 1600x1000 *
[09:46] <Pretor1ab> i want tdual boot my macbook pro with ubuntu - and am reading the howto https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook - however i have a 2.4ghz cpu -- which lpj: parameter should i use please?
[09:46] <philwhln> nbkr: I don't have smartctl. it's not on aptitude
[09:46] <dr-fish> dyrne: will this work with the download version?
[09:46] <xtknight> ^Ocean^, you need to change 1600x1200 in xorg.conf to 1680x1050
[09:46] <^Ocean^> xtknight, ahh,,,
[09:46] <nbkr> stefg, Strange, that I mounted a squashfs image without recompiling the kernel, isn't it?
[09:46] <philwhln> godlygeek: what should I do with dmesg?
[09:46] <Steve^> PriceChild, http://pastebin.com/m3232a1da
[09:46] <fulio> how can i install icon themes?
[09:46] <dyrne> Steve^: best to listen to others here when it comes to the gnome tools. i dont have alot of exp with em. esp in ubuntu you can just sudo ifup eth0 or something that does about what the conn manager does. typically i do 1) sudo ifconfig eth0 up  2) sudo dhclient eth0    if im not manually assinging ip
[09:47] <kbj> Is there a way to me a user auto login to gnome?
[09:47] <nbkr> philwhln, Search for smartmontools
[09:47] <kbj> *make
[09:47] <nbkr> kbj, Yes, the GDM supports this.
[09:47] <xtknight> ^Ocean^, for the lower resolutions you can include 1400x900, it's a better resolution than 1280x1040 that fits your aspect ratio
[09:47] <PriceChild> Steve^, copy lines 1 and 2, underneath, then replace "lo" in each of them with "eth0".
[09:47] <kbj> nbkr: GDM?
[09:47] <philwhln> godlygeek: ran "dmesg" and nothing stands out as bad
[09:47] <Crustacean-Bob> !emacs
[09:47] <ubotu> Text Editors: gedit (GNOME), Kate (KDE), mousepad (Xfce4) | Terminal-based editors: vi/vim, emacs, and nano (user-friendly). | HTML/CSS editors: !html | Programming: !code
[09:47] <nbkr> !gdm | kbj
[09:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gdm - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:47] <PriceChild> Steve^, finally, "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart" or reboot etc. and it "should" work
[09:47] <godlygeek> Pretor1ab: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MacBookProhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/MacBookPro
[09:47] <nickrud> kbj: system->admin->login window, there's a tab called security
[09:48] <Steve^> PriceChild, well, it works right now
[09:48] <godlygeek> Pretor1ab: you shouldn't need an lpj param for feisty or greater.
[09:48] <kbj> nickrud: thanks
[09:48] <fulio> Does anyone know how to install icon theme
[09:48] <nickrud> kbj: gdm == login window :)
[09:48] <Wyvern|> Simple question: How do I check what exact kernel version I'm running? (2.6.16-29 or 2.6.16-31)
[09:48] <Pretor1ab> oh ok
[09:48] <PriceChild> Wyvern|, uname -r
[09:48] <godlygeek> philwhln: hm.  i hadn't heard 'kernel update' before, i was guessing bad hard drive, which would show up in dmesg
[09:48] <Steve^> PriceChild, care to explain what the problem was?
[09:48] <Wyvern|> nop, does not show subversions.
[09:48] <riotkittie> err. anyone know offhand if dlnk's dwl-g122 rev B1 USB adapter utilizes the ralink chipset? :D :x
[09:49] <vlt> MenZa: Adding "sync" to the pmount options also solved the problem. Thank you.
[09:49] <dr-fish> dyrne: will this work with the download version?
[09:49] <PriceChild> Steve^, well the default ethernet card interface (which i assume is the one you're using) isn't listed in the file that lists what is brought up on boot.
[09:49] <philwhln> nbkr: ran "sudo smartctl -H /dev/sda1" -> "SMART Health Status: OK"
[09:49] <nbkr> Wyvern|, ls -lha /boot - compare it to the "menu.lst" file.s
[09:49] <MenZa> vlt: Not at all. :)
[09:49] <godlygeek> Wyvern|: dpkg -l | grep linux-image
[09:49] <MenZa> vlt: I find the async used is incredibly annoying for media you remove a lot
[09:49] <Steve^> PriceChild, so why did it work before and why infact would it ever work?
[09:49] <MenZa> vlt: breaks everything
[09:49] <mumbles> ok guys i have just spent a while trying to install ndiswrapper but havent gotten anywhere
[09:49] <nbkr> philwhln, Than there is no problem with the disk - at least thing that can be discovered by smart.
[09:50] <PriceChild> Steve^, pebkac
[09:50] <Pretor1ab> thanks
[09:50] <^Ocean^> xtknight, so it should look like this then ..
[09:50] <godlygeek> Wyvern|: though, that won't show what you're RUNNING, just which ones you have installed.
[09:50] <^Ocean^>         Modes      "1680x1050" "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
[09:50] <mumbles> i can apt-get install it but when i try to go ndiswrapper -i i get error no versions of ndiswrapper found
[09:50] <Wyvern|> sorry, ment the difference between (2.6.20-16-29 and 2.6.20-16-31) (forgot the .20 part)
[09:50] <Steve^> PriceChild, the things that could have broken it are the inclusion of an Xbox 360 to the network and my housemate doing some bt talk talk thing.    pebkac?
[09:50] <godlygeek> philwhln: i have no idea what in a kernel upgrade could cause that... sorry.
[09:50] <xtknight> ^Ocean^, right.  for each of the bit depths there
[09:50] <PriceChild> Steve^, "problem exists between keyboard and computer" - ie you must have broken it through your actions incuding sudo/gksudo.
[09:50] <^Ocean^> yea
[09:50] <xtknight> ^Ocean^, same line for 8-bit,16-bit or w/e
[09:50] <Wyvern|> so there is no way to see exactly which one?
[09:50] <^Ocean^> 1 - 24
[09:50] <^Ocean^> okay
[09:50] <godlygeek> philwhln: i think we're officially out of my league.  *blush*
[09:50] <^Ocean^> brb gonna give it a try
[09:51] <philwhln> godlygeek: sorry, that was in my first comment. you must have missed it. still trying to replicate it with nano, but happens intermitently with vim
[09:51] <Kworth> Is there a programm whith which i can search in files of a folder and replace
[09:51] <Steve^> PriceChild, hmm, ok. Oddly enough my dodgy wireless on my laptop has been fine the entire time
[09:51] <Evanlec> anyone install ubuntu on a raid-0 array? is it worth the trouble? ;p
[09:51] <PriceChild> Steve^, that's still listed in the interfaces file ;)
[09:51] <mumbles> Steve^: least you can get wireless working :P
[09:51] <godlygeek> philwhln: what options is / mounted with if you run mount?
[09:52] <IndyGunFreak> Evanlec: lol in my opinion, NO.

[09:57] <nbkr> AmazighQ, depends on how your internet connection is done. DSL, ISDN, Modem ...

[09:57] <dr-fish> what happens if i use ubutu on windows xp
[09:57] <Urilockz> my screen size is that to
[09:57] <dr-fish> can i shift between operating systems?

[09:57] <PriceChild> dr-fish, "on"?
[09:57] <AmazighQ> dr-fish that dont work

[09:57] <dr-fish> how?
[09:57] <PriceChild> dr-fish, yes, you can "dual boot" which means you can choose which to boot when you turn your machine on.
[09:57] <MenZa> read those links
[09:58] <dr-fish> what will hapeen
[09:58] <xtknight> ^Ocean^, well there are many options you can try like "UseEDID" "no" in xorg.conf (not sure exactly where it goes)
[09:58] <croweboy> didnt work
[09:58] <dr-fish> cheers
[09:58] <PriceChild> dr-fish, see the instructions from ubotu :)
[09:58] <croweboy> didnt do anything
[09:58] <MenZa> you will get a menu at start up, asking you what operating system to use, dr-fish
[09:58] <xtknight> ^Ocean^, or you can try making a modeline which i do know how to do
[09:58] <Shockman> hi
[09:58] <AmazighQ> but you need 2 different partions to instal ubuntu and windows safly
[09:58] <godlygeek> croweboy: ls /mnt
[09:58] <xtknight> ^Ocean^, i'd be curious if 1680x1050 worked fine with the "nv" or "vesa" drivers though
[09:58] <nbkr> croweboy, than the command worked - check /mnt

[09:58] <ubotu> Package kernel-patch-squashfs does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[09:59] <bruenig> you can't go that high with vesa can you?
[09:59] <croweboy> what huh lol
[09:59] <xtknight> bruenig,  ya 1680x1050 works here on vesa
[09:59] <godlygeek> croweboy: ls /mnt
[09:59] <bruenig> hmmm
[09:59] <xtknight> should be able to max the video card with it
[09:59] <godlygeek> croweboy: type it in.  at a terminal.

[09:59] <annihilus> has anyone here had any luck syncing their windows smartphone with Ubuntu
[09:59] <Shockman> i have a question
[09:59] <croweboy> it said lost and found
[09:59] <godlygeek> LOL
[09:59] <Shockman> after an update is performed by ubuntu
[09:59] <nbkr> Shockman, Just ask your question.
[10:00] <godlygeek> croweboy: then /dev/sdb1 wasn't the right partition.
[10:00] <Shockman> why do i have another kernel option on grub loader
[10:00] <nbkr> croweboy, thats normal. Check /etc/mtab, to see if the new partition is mounted.
[10:00] <godlygeek> croweboy: no one here can help you out if you don't know how your partitions are layed out.
[10:00] <IdleOne> Shockman: because the kernel was upgraded
[10:00] <davidthedrake> Shockman, do you mean a different version of the kernel as an option?
[10:00] <godlygeek> nbkr: I thought he was trying to mount an NTFS?
[10:00] <dyrne> Shockman: gksu gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst see how many entries ya have prob an old kernel
[10:00] <Shockman> im new to to linux so...
[10:00] <dyrne> Shockman: then dont edit that file
[10:01] <xtknight> ^Ocean^, you did restart the X server after you edited xorg.conf, right?
[10:01] <nbkr> godlygeek, Ok - I thought he was formating a disk.
[10:01] <reallynewguy> ahh about that screen reso thing, is it only possible to run the comands given in the link if ive fully installed ubuntu? at the moment im just running off the live CD
[10:01] <^Ocean^> xtknight, Yes i did :)
[10:01] <Shockman> but can delete the old kernel after an update?
[10:01] <dyrne> Shockman: you might open synaptic and search for like linux-image and then uninstall the kernel ya dont want
[10:01] <Shockman> yes i see
[10:01] <xtknight> ^Ocean^, pastebin "sudo ddcprobe"
[10:01] <davidthedrake> Shockman, the different Kernel option you are seeing is the original version of the kernel installation. When you update your kernel, you still have the option to boot into the old one
[10:01] <Shockman> that is safer :)
[10:01] <croweboy> when i right click on it in gparted now the list option unmount shows up but the drive or partition doesnt
[10:01] <hendrixski> hey.  I just wanted to share my excitement about the ISO's decision today. :-)
[10:01] <dr-fish> so if i install ubuntu on a windows xp laptop, at startup i choos which OS to use?
[10:01] <croweboy> in computer
[10:02] <^Ocean^> xtknight, Wait i wanna try one more thing,  Were do I add A modeline option ?  I found possibly one for my monitor on Google ?
[10:02] <Shockman> thanx
[10:02] <xtknight> ^Ocean^, what monitor do you have ?
[10:02] <xtknight> maybe it's a known problem
[10:02] <hendrixski> Now, are there any patches to MS Office that fix it so that people can read ODF on them?
[10:02] <godlygeek> hendrixski: which decision?
[10:02] <dr-fish> so if i install ubuntu on a windows xp laptop, at startup i choos which OS to use?
[10:02] <nbkr> croweboy, have a look in /etc/mtab - On "Computer" there are only disk that are listed in /etc/fstab.
[10:03] <nbkr> dr-fish, correct.
[10:03] <^Ocean^> xtknight, its a LG Flatron Wide
[10:03] <bascule> dr-fish: yes, right after the BIOS
[10:03] <dyrne> dr-fish: yeah. assuming everythign installs ok
[10:03] <dr-fish> whats bios
[10:03] <hendrixski> godlygeek, the one where the ISO told Microsoft to STFU already and try again when they come up with a document standard that doesn't suck
[10:03] <xtknight> ^Ocean^, i would try generating your own modeline with "gtf" first.  but you stick modelines in the Monitor section.  by LG you mean the L226WT/L226WTQ?
[10:03] <hendrixski> that one
[10:03] <nbkr> !bios
[10:03] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bios - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[10:03] <dyrne> dr-fish: it is easy to fix if there is a problem
[10:03] <dr-fish> kk
[10:03] <dr-fish> thanks for all the help
[10:03] <xtknight> ^Ocean^, phone brb.  i dont remember having problems with my l226wt tho
[10:03] <dr-fish> bye !

[10:03] <xtknight> same thing

[10:04] <bascule> :) its the bot that happens when the logo is there at power on time
[10:04] <bascule> bot/bit
[10:04] <godlygeek> hendrixski: so what?  it's not like MS listens to ISO.  :-p
[10:04] <croweboy> im lost i dont know
[10:04] <croweboy> ill just wait
[10:05] <bascule> ms think they are ISO
[10:05] <hendrixski> godlygeek, but their customers int he government sector do :-)
[10:05] <nbkr> croweboy, run "cat /etc/mtab" on the console.
[10:05] <dr-fish> bbbbbyyyyyyyye
[10:05] <hendrixski> bascule, they can think that... but will their customers buy into it?
[10:05] <croweboy> with sudo in front of it ?
[10:05] <AmazighQ> dr-fish is gonna erase he hard drive hehehe
[10:05] <godlygeek> hendrixski: yes.
[10:05] <nbkr> croweboy, no, no sudo needed.
[10:05] <bascule> well if they are domestic, they won't question it
[10:06] <nbkr> croweboy, paste the result to pastebin.

[10:07] <superman> ive forgotten how it all works and that like the mpc add then the grep commands after?
[10:08] <reallynewguy> w00t godam i luv ubuntu, fixed my screen reso prob

[10:21] <ubunteroAR> what do you all recommend for HD encryption?  ideally something included in ubuntu and that will work through kernel upgrades (unlike TrueCrypt)
[10:21] <xtknight> i dont know if the modelines are in the same format though, but i'd guess so
[10:22] <macd> xtknight, read-edid is the package that will do that
[10:22] <Xcerca> what's the best to edit GRUB entries ?
[10:22] <Xcerca> best way...

[10:22] <lazaruslupine> grubby works fine but any text editor will do
[10:23] <Xcerca> is grubby just a text editor ?
[10:23] <xtknight> ^Ocean^, you can export an edid with the nvidia settings box but reading it is another story.  maybe read-edid will work for you, though
[10:24] <t1ger> Hello

[10:35] <ShackJack> Hi all - installing xubuntu on a 64MB thinkpad (taking - forever)... It's sort of paused on xubuntu-desktop with little blips from the HD every now and then -- is that normal... just wrapping up the installation? (paused at "Select & INstall software" progress bar - xubuntu-desktop...) (it's an xubuntu ?? but noone awake in #xubuntu)
[10:35] <arghh2D2> bruenig: jre comes up with "command not found"  however, i can get all the fancy java games and stuff to work on a web browser, but i'm trying to run something in 'java virtual machine' i guess... heres the program: http://www.isc.ro/en/download.html
[10:35] <ikonia> ShackJack 64mb is too little
[10:35] <arghh2D2> jrib, i'm not sure what i need to do.

[10:36] <ShackJack> Paddy_EIRE: ikonia - I am using text based... but it stuck on xubuntu-deskop  (@ 85%)... Is it thinking?
[10:36] <dyrne> ubunteroAR: packages.ubuntu.com? maybe but if not in repos maybe not i guess
[10:36] <ikonia> ShackJack you've not got enough ram

[10:37] <ShackJack> Paddy_EIRE: ikonia: Thankfully a 128MB stick module arrives tomooroow :)
[10:37] <al_> So my laptop was going into hibernation so I plugged it in real quick. It seemed to come back to life cos it made me unlock the screen, so I did. Then it continued to hibernate anyway...
[10:37] <realnewguy> this may sound pretty stupid but... is there a way to scan the windows partition for viruses etc using the ubuntu live CD?
[10:37] <ShackJack> ikonia: According to the Xubuntu website, I do...
[10:37] <al_> So then I turned it on again and now it won't go past BIOS.
[10:37] <jrib> arghh2D2: I assume you already tried to do 'java -jar wordbiz.jar' and it failed so follow ubotu's instructions on installing the java virtual machine from sun
[10:37] <sunnypies> In Ubuntu, how do i see what version my java development kit (jdk) is?

[10:38] <bernabelillo> hola
[10:38] <ShackJack> ikonia: Regadless, the xubuntu website says it can install run with 64MB; you think the installer stopped at 85% because of only 64MB ram?

[10:39] <ikonia> ShackJack possibly
[10:39] <ikonia> ShackJack the kernel requires 24 meg to run - that doesn't leave much to process the install
[10:39] <bernabelillo> como te va
[10:40] <ShackJack> ikonia: O.K. Someone should think about updating the Xubuntu website, then...
[10:40] <Esteth> Does anyone know of either a tool that removes DRM from iTunes store songs, or allows me to play them if i input the key i used to purchase them?
[10:41] <PriceChild> Esteth, that discussion is most probably against their terms of purchase and not suitable for this channel sorry.
[10:41] <corrupt> it's time to eat, bye everybody.
[10:41] <qazibasit> ify zahura17
[10:41] <Paddy_EIRE> ShackJack, it'll run on 64meg but it wont install on that bare minimum and you dont have 64 meg as the kernel uses some of that ... on a laptop aswell your sound and gfx are also using system ram
[10:41] <dyrne> realnewguy: id google for like knoppix virus scan windows or something anything mentioned in a howto for knoppix should be available in ubuntu
[10:42] <qazibasit> hey whats the difference b/w kernel 2.5 and 2.6
[10:42] <markelhas> i've a asus m3n with 1 gb of mem, when i try to boot ubutun the system is very very very slow, slower than the livecd. I've made the memtest and no errors found. I've tested a different 512 mem and same problem. Later i've put a 256 mem and it works just fine. What can i do to use 1g mem in my ubuntu?
[10:42] <tovella> ShackJack: perhaps you might try using the alternate-install CD.
[10:42] <dyrne> 2.5?
[10:42] <qazibasit> like while booting from 2.6 i was having problem and i boot my linux from 2.5
[10:42] <Esteth> PriceChild: Oh, sorry. I assumed since i legally purchased the music, that it would be legal to play the music. Damn DRM :(
[10:42] <qazibasit> the version of kernel
[10:42] <PriceChild> Esteth, you legally purchased the right to play it under certain conditions and many restrictions.
[10:42] <tyoc> Hi there people, I have a problem with seeing my HD
[10:43] <ShackJack> ikonia: Paddy_EIRE: Actually it seems to have just woken up and is progressing "Cleaning Up" :)... I do hear ya though... a 128MB upgrade is coming tommorrow (circa 2000 think pad)... That should run xubuntu O.K. I should think?
[10:43] <xOjka> :)
[10:43] <PriceChild> Esteth, you didn't purchase the music
[10:43] <tyoc> I have already installed my ubuntu in my PC... but the motherboard where toasted
[10:43] <Paddy_EIRE> ShackJack, yep.... it'll run fine on that
[10:43] <xOjka> heh
[10:43] <tyoc> all the other parts where OK

[10:44] <tyoc> the anterior motherboard was an gygabite 965pDS, now I have an ASUS P5B Deluxe/wifi AP
[10:44] <tovella> ShackJack: depends on what you consider OK.  i personally wouldn't run without 256MB.
[10:44] <Esteth> PriceChild: Well yeah. Ah well, looks like i'll have to put up with burning in XP to a virtual CD, then ripping from that CD. iTunes kills the DRM when you do that, but you lose quality :(
[10:44] <tyoc> but I get grub error 21
[10:44] <tyoc> when starting the system
[10:44] <ShackJack> ikonia: Paddy_EIRE: Thanks both for your input... I did get stuck at one point in the 64MB install - on anthy, but in that case you could just kill process and continue on...
[10:45] <Paddy_EIRE> ShackJack, anthy?
[10:45] <SpudDogg> is there a reason Gnome is so much more popular then KDE?

[10:45] <neverblue> SpudDogg, its simple
[10:45] <qazibasit> well most distributions use gnome
[10:45] <asdf> anyone know a command to count down in the terminal?
[10:45] <Paddy_EIRE> SpudDogg, because gnome is better :P
[10:46] <qazibasit> whereas kde is not supported by all vendors
[10:46] <ShackJack> Paddy_EIRE: It's a package - not sure what dictionary or foreign character think... Anyway... it got stuck on that (cause of low mem), but you can just kill the process and move on....

[10:46] <SpudDogg> neverblue: yea, kde is a little harder to use, but im surprised more people dont use it for it's eye candy.  i, personally, dont like all the eye candy so i use gnome
[10:47] <tyoc> some one of you have an idea about the problem
[10:47] <neverblue> SpudDogg, then you wouldnt like Beryl :)
[10:47] <amaranthinenight> I love compiz. I wouldn't be able to live without that thing that arranges all of my windows on the screen for easy locating
[10:47] <erichj> KDE isn't harder to use. The interface just isn't intuitive
[10:48] <SpudDogg> neverblue: i actually do have beryl installed and running, but i like that for SOME of the features, like hovering the items in the bottom bar, etc
[10:48] <markelhas> i need to compile kernel with a different option how can i do that?
[10:48] <neverblue> asdf, for example, sleep might do what you like, apropos time
[10:48] <amaranthinenight> Unintuitive is roughly equal to more difficult
[10:48] <al_> ok never mind that I have a better question
[10:48] <markelhas> is there a simple way?

[10:56] <RickSeymour> is it possible to create a custom kernel without having an initrd? I receive the error "cannot create initial console"
[10:56] <ikonia> is it failing to bind to the master or to anything
[10:56] <SilentDis> Odd question: I'll be getting high-speed 'net access via my cell phone company soon (goodbye crummy dialup!).  I *think* i can handle the ip routing and such using Ubuntu server (been a while, but i'll muddle thru).  I'll have to connect a cell phone via USB to the 'puter though, and i've not had any experience with anything like that in *nix.  Is this doable in an Ubuntu Server config?
[10:56] <ikonia> RickSeymour /dev/console ?
[10:56] <arghh2D2> does anyone know how to find out wich process my locked up firefox is under so i can kill it?
[10:56] <saraivaj> yes, and the server is ok.
[10:56] <dyrne> kbj: by default the new user wont be a member of any groups read only access to what?
[10:56] <saraivaj> because there is another lab with conectiva
[10:56] <RickSeymour> /dev/console is present
[10:56] <ikonia> saraivaj so if you do a ypcat passwd what happens ?
[10:56] <saylar> i saw the process sftp-server and did a strace and it seems that it was scanning my whole filesystem. how do i check what was going on. auth.log just says subsystem request for sftp. is sftp installed by default in ubuntu server?
[10:56] <dyrne> nm
[10:56] <Paddy_EIRE> arghh2D2, firefox-bin
[10:56] <arghh2D2> does anyone know how to find out wich process my locked up firefox is under so i can kill it?  and/or a better web browser for ubuntu?
[10:56] <genii> kbj: You make new samba users with:   sudo smbpasswd -ae <name>
[10:56] <jrib> arghh2D2: killall firefox-bin
[10:56] <SilentDis> arghh2D2: sudo killall firefox
[10:57] <Paddy_EIRE> !repeat | arghh2D2

[10:57] <saraivaj> No such map password. Reason: Can't bind to server which serves this domain
[10:57] <SilentDis> arghh2D2: sudo killall firefox-bin
[10:57] <ikonia> saraivaj ok, so it really isn't bound
[10:57] <SilentDis> arghh2D2: jrib is correct, thank you on that one :)
[10:57] <genii> kbj: As for what directories etc they see and have permissions to, that is is the smb.conf file
[10:57] <ikonia> saraivajsaraivaj anything in messages ?
[10:57] <SilentDis> arghh2D2: as for a 'better' browser, there's epiphiny (or however it's spelled) and konkquerer (more for KDE, but it works under gnome)
[10:57] <amaranthinenight> I'm not sure if there's anyone here that can help me, but I have a problem with the Evolution mail client. I need a mail client to use in linux that can access a Microsoft Exchange server for email. Whenever I try to create an account to interface with the exchange server on my network, it crashes after I enter my password. If I run it in a terminal, it outputs some junk about libsoup....
[10:58] <amaranthinenight> ...Anyone have any ideas? I'd gladly use another client if I could find one besides evolution with exchange support, but I can't.
[10:58] <SilentDis> arghh2D2: also, there's always Opera and Netscape
[10:58] <kbj> genii: Ok thanks, do I have to create that user as a normal user first? And where is the smb conf located?
[10:58] <arghh2D2> whats the best browser in anyones opinion?
[10:58] <Harry_Slaughter> IE
[10:58] <davidthedrake> arghh2D2, Firefox
[10:58] <Paddy_EIRE> amaranthinenight, which version of exchange
[10:58] <ikonia> arghh2D2 its personal opinion, only your opinon matter
[10:58] <Harry_Slaughter> %^)
[10:58] <amaranthinenight> Of exchange or evolution?
[10:59] <Ax-Ax> IE, defenitly
[10:59] <SilentDis> arghh2D2: Firefox Rox ;)  I use a combo of Konq and FF myself.
[10:59] <arghh2D2> as far as stability?  its been buggy on my end lately
[10:59] <scipio_> arghh2D2, i would use opera but i can't set it up correctly in linux so firefox
[10:59] <Ax-Ax> arghh2D2; Firefox!
[10:59] <amaranthinenight> Evolution is version 2.10.1, Exchange is Server 2007, from what I can gather.
[11:00] <Harry_Slaughter> i've just taken a leap of faith, been using redhat since 5.2 and finally can't take it anymore, so i installed ubuntu. problem is i need to install a lamp stack, and i'm not familiar at all with dpkg or ubuntu repos.
[11:00] <azi> hm.. i've installed ubutnu and my resolution was crapy, so i've apt-get-ed xorg-server-intel and now my resolution is sOOO bad 640x400 even with 915resultion.. what can i do?
[11:01] <Harry_Slaughter> i'm using synaptic to install new packages, but the default repos don't seem to contain packages like mysql.
[11:01] <Paddy_EIRE> amaranthinenight, there are known issues with the 2007 version I would suggest trying the ubuntu forums for a bit before I would come here as you will be better informed as to the compatibility status of said app
[11:01] <crdlb> !lamp | Harry_Slaughter
[11:01] <ubotu> Harry_Slaughter: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[11:01] <dyrne> azi: what are you a graphic designer? whats wrong with 640x400?
[11:01] <joebob777as7> Harry_Slaughter, you need to get ubuntu server installs lamp by default
[11:01] <TimeTraveller> i downloaded azureuz and put it on a folder on the desktop and it runs good, but where should i put programs is there any "standard" folder and how do i assosiate torrent files with it .. i know i can install it with synaptic but that version is not working with my system
[11:01] <Xcerca> is there a way to change file permissions from root,  so that you can edit and save things in them ?
[11:01] <dyrne> azi: can you pastebin xorg.conf ? and monitor model?
[11:01] <azi> dyrne: eh
[11:01] <Harry_Slaughter> joebob777as7, i've installed the desktop version
[11:02] <west> how do i edit php file access
[11:02] <PriceChild> joebob777as7, no it doesn't, but it gives you the option
[11:02] <azi> dyrne: actually i can't :\ it's my friends laptop and he's 100km away from me, i can tell you the graphic card model though : Intel Media Graphics Accelerator 950
[11:02] <jrib> TimeTraveller: /opt or /usr/local/ for system-wide things you install on your own, otherwise just anywhere in your HOME that you want for personal stuff
[11:02] <amaranthinenight> Thanks for the help Paddy_EIRE. I guess I'll be creating an account on the forums.
[11:02] <Harry_Slaughter> crdlb, tks, that link above seem to answer the question
[11:02] <system_> g
[11:03] <jrib> azi: it's a lot easier if your friends joins irc and seeks help then
[11:03] <joebob777as7> ok well when it gives you the option it is checked by default...............
[11:03] <azi> jrib: he can't use the box, that's the problem ;)
[11:03] <Paddy_EIRE> amaranthinenight, you should have one anyway :P.. research your problem before you come here... I normally google & ubuntu forums at the very least
[11:03] <azi> ;(
[11:03] <sophy> how to run "sudo modprobe fsam7440" automatically at the boot ?
[11:03] <Neronious> does Ubuntu support tablet hybrid notebooks?
[11:04] <Xcerca> i'm using the Nvidia settings tool and i can't save the settings to the x configuration file,  i get this error Unable to remove old X config backup file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup'.
[11:04] <azi> jrib: the resolution is so bad he can't access windows, and it's a tough time explainig him how to use irssi  - he's a complete linux newbie
[11:04] <amaranthinenight> Paddy_EIRE: I did google, and I searched the forums for my errors. There's been nothing on either one, except a post earlier today by another user with the same error as me that has gone unanswered.
[11:04] <m0u5e> hmm anyone know why the XPS M1330 will make a little "buzzing" sound during bootup?
[11:04] <m0u5e> is that normal? :X
[11:04] <Xcerca> is there a way to change the permissions of those files so that i can edit that
[11:04] <ikonia> m0u5e thats a hardware question
[11:04] <Paddy_EIRE> amaranthinenight, ahh.. I see
[11:04] <ikonia> this is ubuntu support
[11:04] <m0u5e> ikonia :(
[11:04] <TimeTraveller> jrib: ok thanks.. but how do i tell the system that i want azureus to handle torrent files ?

[11:05] <fulio> Does anyone have awn install in ubuntu7.04 with compiz-fusion
[11:05] <Paddy_EIRE> !anyone | fulio
[11:05] <ubotu> fulio: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[11:05] <ikonia> fulio 7.04 comes with cmopiz
[11:05] <TimeTraveller> jrib: ok cool !
[11:05] <ikonia> compiz
[11:05] <dyrne> azi: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=239389 has a few links but id say important thing is to get him up and running with at least vesa for 2d
[11:05] <fulio> ikonia, im not able to have awn running its not  installing
[11:06] <amaranthinenight> Paddy_EIRE: I was hoping, as a last resort, I might get a better answer here. At least now I know that there are problems with Exchange server 2007. Maybe I can get the guys in the tech center to enable IMAP support on the server so that I can use another client.
[11:06] <ikonia> fulio 7.04 comes with compiz - not compiz fusion. Enable it with "desktop effects"
[11:06] <fulio> ikonia, i have enable it also i have compiz-fusion with it
[11:07] <Paddy_EIRE> amaranthinenight, or possibly an older version of exchange... there are many success stories with the older versions... I feel you pain :)
[11:07] <ikonia> fulio then why are you asking if people have it
[11:07] <ikonia> installing compiz and fusion on the same box is not a good idea
[11:07] <winbond> are there any plans to create a ubuntu performance team? the performance has been really lacking in all the releases so far
[11:07] <fulio> im askng for awn
[11:07] <ikonia> winbond I disagree
[11:07] <Slart> is anyone here using lyx? I just want someone to write one equation to see if my installation is messed up or it is lyx being broken
[11:07] <ikonia> fulio what is awn ?
[11:08] <greenleaf> I feel like a bit of a n00b, but I'm having connection issues with Feisty.  I set it up, created a couple of users, set up Samba sharing, but am unable to connect to the shares from my other machines.  Is there a built-in firewall I need to edit to make this work?
[11:08] <fulio> ikonia, awn is avant window navigator
[11:08] <battleLoli> Is there any way to uninstall all of the useless rubbish that Ubuntu comes with without uninstalling the ubuntu-desktop package?
[11:08] <Paddy_EIRE> winbond, ??? I totally disagree
[11:08] <battleLoli> Or is it okay to do that without it breaking things.
[11:08] <ikonia> battleLoli its only a meta package
[11:08] <robbster3> I've just installed feisty and when doing and apt-get upgrade, I get: "/usr/share/xxxxxxxx: failed to write to cache" ? I've never seen this problem? help?
[11:08] <battleLoli> okay, so it should be fine?
[11:08] <Slart> battleLoli: I think the desktop package is, as you so elegantly put it, the rubbish =)
[11:08] <winbond> Paddy_EIRE, why do u disagree?
[11:08] <j0nas`> im having absolutely loads of trouble connecting to my university's WPA-secured wireless network
[11:08] <battleLoli> :p
[11:08] <amaranthinenight> Paddy_EIRE: They just upgraded, I don't think they'll be too terribly fond of downgrading just so that I can check my email from linux. IMAP would at least let me check it.
[11:08] <gnomefreak> amaranthinenight: try looking on lauchpad.net under evolution bugs. I thought this issue was fixed already but i do remember the issue
[11:08] <jrib> !ubuntu-desktop > battleLoli (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:09] <j0nas`> does anyone have any experience with WPA?
[11:09] <battleLoli> ah okay. thanks.
[11:09] <gnomefreak> amaranthinenight: make sure you have feisty-updates and feisty-security repos enabled as well
[11:09] <Paddy_EIRE> winbond, ubuntu has outperformed
[11:09] <ubunteroA1> when I follow these directions to install gutsy kernel on feisty, it wants to install libc6, is that a bad idea?  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=511974

[11:09] <tdoggette> I'm trying to copy a folder to a thumbdrive with "cp -u /home/tdoggette/School/ /media/KINGSTON/School/" but it instead gives me "cp: omitting directory `/home/tdoggette/School/'" Why is it omitting that directory and how can I get it to copy properly?
[11:10] <ubunteroA1> tdoggette: use -r
[11:10] <asdf> Does anyone know how get a macbook's built in webcam going?
[11:10] <winbond> Paddy_EIRE, ive used suse, pclinux oss and mandriva on the same system, and all of them run way faster then ubuntu
[11:10] <tdoggette> ubunteroA1, -r and -u, or just -r?
[11:10] <j0nas`> tdoggette: add -R flag for recursive copy
[11:10] <Paddy_EIRE> winbond, myself and a lot of others would maybe see it as P.I.C.N.I.C. (problem in chair not in computer)
[11:10] <gnomefreak> !webcam | asdf
[11:10] <ikonia> winbond thats a matter of opinion, use and config

[11:16] <boojah> Netham45: the default gateway is given to you from dhcp (if you have that confured on your router or server) if you dont have an assigned ipaddress subnet and gateway wrote dhclient in the terminal
[11:16] <jrib> siloko: what are you trying?  have you read "writing udev rules"?  I think it's covered there
[11:16] <west> ikonia:  where should i use absoulute paths name?! and how? why?
[11:16] <genii> siloko: I have a link on that subject if you like
[11:16] <tdoggette> ubunteroAR, Is there a way to sync directories both ways, with both versions of all files and directories the newest?
[11:16] <ikonia> west /join #apache and ask in there
[11:16] <siloko> i got my info from http://www.reactivated.net/writing_udev_rules.html which seems pretty straight forward
[11:16] <gnomefreak> amaranthinenight: that file one there i am unable to help much as im having a bad time this week and im only here to fix one thing than im gone again for a day or two
[11:16] <realnewguy> hey guys im about to install Ubuntu, ive got a 30gig hardrive, and about 14gigs is used by windows, id like to keep windows though, im using gnome partition, but i dont really understand it
[11:16] <siloko> but no luck in running a script (or anything actually)
[11:17] <jrib> siloko: paste your rule

[11:18] <amaranthinenight> gnomefreak: I should file a bug at launchpad? Thanks for the help, i figured it was probably an obscure enough problem that there wouldn't be an easy solution. For now i'll continue to access through webmail.
[11:18] <Hurga> Hi there. I NEED to create a DVD image (udf or iso) of a 4.5 GB file. Ubuntu 6.06 or 7.04. I always get some file too large error. Any ideas?
[11:18] <PulLi> !list
[11:18] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[11:18] <Zenom> is there a place on the ubuntu site to get notified of ubuntu security alerts?
[11:18] <boojah> realnewguy: if you have free space (unallocated, or not formated space) you can choose "use largest contingues space" in the installation, it will not remove your windows partition
[11:19] <siloko> jrib: perhaps i'm just misunderstanding when the rules are invoked - i assumed whenever i hotplug anything . . . maybe wrong?
[11:19] <ubunteroAR> tdoggette: haven't used it but check out:  http://www.conduit-project.org/
[11:19] <tdoggette> realnewguy, if you do what boojah says, it'll even give you a menu when you boot up to choose between OSes
[11:19] <realnewguy> unfortunatly its all formated as NTFS but i do have 16gigs on NTFS to use for ubuntu, is it possible to cut it in half?
[11:20] <realnewguy> do i have to unmount the NTFS file system and resize it?
[11:20] <ubunteroAR> is installing the libc6 package from gutsy dangerous on a feisty system?  (trying to get the newer kernel, but it wants to install libc6 also)
[11:20] <boojah> realnewguy: you can use norton partition magic to resize your ntfs partition to make room for ubuntu, but it is not a free software
[11:20] <Netham45> boojah: Im running a server, and I have the IP static, but I don't know how to set the gateway
[11:21] <jrib> siloko: put some dummy script so you can test and see if it matters if you don't put the "4"
[11:21] <NjG> hmm sorry if i missed anything there as i am getting the odd hang up on apps but found that i seem to be getting a 'Buffer I/O error on device sr0' on install then some squashfs errors any advice
[11:21] <NjG> ?
[11:21] <realnewguy> well ive just umounted the NTFS filesystem, im looking at a menu now to resize it, should i go ahead? if its not defraged will i damage the windows OS on the current NTFS?
[11:21] <yakov> hello
[11:22] <tdoggette> ubunteroAR, Thanks. You've been a great help.
[11:22] <siloko> jrib: i tried it with the base dev (sdb) and i even tried it without any device filtering and with other simple scripts (which all work from terminal)
[11:22] <yakov> which is the latest Gutsy kernel? how can I check the version myself?
[11:22] <siloko> basically i tried everything :)
[11:22] <ubunteroAR> tdoggette: no prob

[11:22] <yakov> PriceChild, thx
[11:22] <dyrne> realnewguy: ive heard defrag recommeneded but i think damaging it is unlikely. like 1 in 10 maybe ;p
[11:22] <boojah> Netham45: then go to Administration -> System -> Network and choose wired (or wireless) then click properties.. the rest you will figure out
[11:22] <realnewguy> ok thank you
[11:23] <roadfish> is there an Ubuntu package that I can install to get man pages for C language system calls like execl, fprint, etc
[11:23] <realnewguy> would 4gigs of diskspace be ok for a full ubuntu install?
[11:23] <jrib> siloko: weird, I don't have time to test it out now, but try asking again in a bit here, maybe someone else understands the issue
[11:23] <Hurga> 4GB on DVD in one file, how?
[11:23] <jrib> roadfish: manpages-dev
[11:23] <boojah> realnewguy: i would recomend more unless you plan on installing just ubuntu server
[11:24] <realnewguy> 4gigs on my harddrive i mean, for my partition to install ubuntu on
[11:24] <siloko> jrib ok thanks
[11:24] <Netham45> boojah: it's a server distro.
[11:24] <Netham45> erm, server install
[11:24] <roadfish> jrib: thanks
[11:24] <boojah> Netham45: ohh sry
[11:24] <dyrne> realnewguy: yeah maybe. my installs are usually like 3 gigs after everything is said and done but i usually make /home a sep partition. like c:\documents and settings\dyrne alot of stuff is stored in that
[11:24] <realnewguy> ahh coolys, ty
[11:24] <Harry_Slaughter> is there a debian equiv of 'service restart XXX'?
[11:25] <Hurga> 4GB on DVD in one file, how?
[11:25] <Harry_Slaughter> or /etc/rc.d/..../ restart
[11:25] <Urilockz> are there any other open-source OS's worth looking at?

[11:25] <ward_> a friend has a p1 clocked at 150Mhz, with 96MB ram and he wants to make it into a server, now i saw ubuntu-server is the same installcd as ubuntu desktop?
[11:25] <[swb] > np :)
[11:25] <Netham45> ward_, nope
[11:26] <Netham45> it's a different install CD
[11:26] <boojah> Netham45: i belive you can use ifconfig.. do a man ifconfig
[11:26] <ward_> is his comp gonan be able to use that CD (since xubuntu has a special version for machines with less then 192MB ram)
[11:26] <Netham45> boojah, ok
[11:26] <ward_> Netham45, would ubuntu-server be a godo choice? (since there's no x)
[11:26] <ward_> Netham45, and would it install?
[11:26] <Netham45> I think it would install
[11:27] <Netham45> not sure about a PC that slow
[11:27] <PriceChild> ward_, using the alternate cd, you can choose a "cli only system"... just like the server one.
[11:27] <dyrne> ward_: id recommend debian but ubuntuserver should work. he will also be able to install xfonts base xserver-xorg and fluxbox if he wants some gui itll work on that box ok
[11:27] <realnewguy> uh oh i ran into a problem :S
[11:27] <yakov> argh, I've patched "Change in line 6 of /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/10-macbook-backlight.fdi "Apple Comupter, Inc" to "Apple Inc."." as it described here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook but still i cant adjust backlight :(
[11:28] <yakov> ..with F1, F2
[11:28] <ward_> PriceChild, are you talking about the alternate xubuntu cd? would the result be as good as with server? or debian as dyrne suggested
[11:28] <realnewguy> says an error occured while trying to resize the NTFS filesystem :S
[11:28] <Netham45> ok
[11:28] <ward_> dyrne, is debian lighter?
[11:28] <Netham45> I got the gatway set(using route) but how do I set a DNS server from a command line?
[11:29] <orudie> what is a command to access nvidia settings after installing the nVidia drivers
[11:29] <dyrne> ward_: it seems that way but really maybe not. debian just is more intuitive on a server install but ive done both either is fine
[11:29] <PriceChild> ward_, the alternate cd for any release, ubuntu/kubuntu/xubuntu has the option of a cli only install, which installs the same cli system regardless of what cd you use. same as with the server cd and choosing no extra services
[11:29] <Shadow_X> I have windows set to workgroup SYNAPSE. knowing that linux is case sensitive, I assume the workgroup must be capsed too?
[11:29] <ward_> PriceChild, nice
[11:29] <ward_> dyrne, then he's probably gonna go with the alternate cd
[11:30] <ward_> dyrne, PriceChild would xserver run a bit on that odl thing?
[11:30] <dyrne> ward_: one good thing is more community support in ubuntu so that may be best
[11:30] <soskel> hey
[11:30] <soskel> I want some information about mirroring
[11:30] <[DarxKies] > tst
[11:30] <soskel> I want to mirror ubuntu
[11:31] <orudie> what is a command to access nvidia settings after installing the nVidia drivers
[11:31] <maek> I just installed the lates glx-new and now my mouse cursour is gone. the mouse works per say but I cant see the cursor. I found something that said turn off HWCursor but that still didnt work. any ideas? thanks
[11:31] <Hurga> Is here someone who knows something about DVD burning?
[11:31] <dyrne> ward_: yeah. ive had xserver on a p133 with blackbox running on 8mb ram
[11:31] <m0u5e> anyone here got pyNeighborhood working?
[11:31] <dyrne> ward_: tell him not to use the metapackages
[11:31] <maek> dyrne: k3b works great
[11:31] <Rene> ayo
[11:32] <boojah> Hurga: burning in ubuntu is really easy, just write click and burn to disk
[11:32] <ward_> dyrne, what is blackbox? by metapackages you mean install trough apt-get?
[11:32] <Hurga> boojah: 4 GB file
[11:32] <Hurga> "too large"
[11:33] <dyrne> ward_: a metapackage is just basically a dummy package used to pull in alot of stuff so like ubuntu-desktop package gives you all the gnome plus office  etc
[11:33] <Hurga> 6.06 just left it out and burnt a coaster.
[11:33] <dyrne> ward_: blackbox is a window manager very light weight. id recommend he use fluxbox though
[11:33] <boojah> Hurga: i dont think its any different from CD burning, have you tried the CD/DVD creator under "Places"?
[11:33] <Hurga> boojah: Yes. It
[11:34] <Hurga> It's about mkisofs limits.
[11:34] <ward_> dyrne, he'll start out without x, then isntall x seperately, can u tlell me the best way to install x when the CLI version of ubuntu is installed?
[11:34] <GNAM> will compiz default in gutsy?
[11:34] <PriceChild> ward_, sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg i guess
[11:34] <mark__> ni
[11:34] <Hurga> boojah: Is there some place to ask expert questions?
[11:34] <maek> ward_: aptitude install xserver-xorg

[11:34] <ward_> dyrne, and fluxbox is jsut "sudo apt-get fluxbox" ?
[11:34] <dyrne> ward_: basically you need 2 packages the xfonts-base  <-- im not sure of exact name as im on debian server atm and xserver-xorg
[11:34] <boojah> Hurga: if its too large, then that must mean its to large for the dvd... right?
[11:35] <Hurga> boojah: No, mkisofs limits
[11:35] <ward_> dyrne, maek ok thanx :-)
[11:35] <Hurga> boojah: 4 GB fits just nice on a 4.5 GB DVD
[11:35] <dyrne> ward_: yeah. then i normally do a echo 'exec fluxbox' > ~/.xinitrc    and then type xinit to run it.
[11:35] <dyrne> ward_: np
[11:35] <maek> xfonts-base is right. if you are in fiesty xserver-xorg will install xfonts-base

[11:36] <Centaur5_> I just upgraded from Edgy to Feisty and now I can't get the nvidia drivers to load properly. Any ideas?
[11:36] <variant> Centaur5_: you using the restricted driver manager?
[11:37] <neverblue> Centaur5_, did you use the 'restricted drivers manager' ?
[11:37] <francis> alguien me puede explicar onde estoy
[11:37] <neverblue> variant, too fast :P
[11:37] <Centaur5_> variant: Yeah, I had to reinstall the restricted-linux package for it to detect that I had nvidia hardware then it went and install nviida-glx
[11:37] <Centaur5_> variant: Prior to that I have nvidia-glx-new so restricted manager uninstalled that one.
[11:37] <Hurga> boojah: Well, I know that it has problems, but it SHOULD work.
[11:37] <neverblue> Centaur5_, there is also nvidia-settings
[11:38] <Centaur5_> neverblue: Do I want that package?
[11:38] <variant> Centaur5_: you have been doing a mix of manual and using hte driver manager?
[11:38] <boojah> Hurga: maybe making a iso would fix it
[11:38] <neverblue> Centaur5_, I used it to setup my xorg.conf the way I wanted, so it might be an option to assist
[11:38] <dyrne> maek: looks like cde ;)
[11:38] <Centaur5_> neverblue: Well isn't nvidia-xconfig supposed to setup the xorg file properly?
[11:39] <Hurga> boojah: third time, it's a mkisofs problem. a mkISOfs problem, you understand?
[11:39] <neverblue> Centaur5_, it changes driver 'nv' to driver 'nvidia' :)
[11:39] <Centaur5_> variant: yes, I manually installed nvidia-glx-new first cause the restricted manager wouldn't run.
[11:39] <neverblue> restricted manage wont run, or it wont update your driver?
[11:39] <maek> dyrne: so far from it ;) its actually usable.
[11:40] <boojah> Hurga: sry.. some guys on that forum claimed to have a work around.
[11:40] <CaBlGuY-SuRfErKi> !pastebin
[11:40] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[11:40] <Centaur5_> neverblue: It wouldn't run, it said that there wasn't any hardware detected that needed restricted drivers.  So I reinstalled the restricted-linux package and it would run and show lucent and nvidia needed to be installed.
[11:41] <Hurga> boojah: Yes, but nothing definitive, Even worse, UDF support has been castrated to 1 GB... that one worked for me a few years ago.
[11:41] <Urilockz> why does compiz-core need updating, I update and then it says it needs to udate again
[11:42] <Hurga> boojah: It can't really be that I have to look for a Windows user just to burn a file.
[11:42] <Centaur5_> neverblue: so now that the restricted manager ran it uninstalled nvidia-glx-new and installed nvidia-glx but it still won't properly use it.  I'm quite stumped now.
[11:42] <epimeteo> an apache question: I have a firewall (firehol). can I install apache in feisty and be relaxed about it, or do I have to tweak some configuration to make it safer?

[11:43] <azi> ok, i still have resolution problems with an intel graphic, 915resolution and intel-xorg-server, here is my xorg.conf : http://nd47.coderock.org/~azi/xorg.conf . can someone please help me set up things?
[11:43] <Hurga> boojah: mkisofs says file too large. - Is there some place to ask expert questions?
[11:44] <boojah> Hurga: try #ubuntu-dev
[11:44] <CaBlGuY-SuRfErKi> ok, can anyone tell me what this error means??  It's coming up now when I try to boot to my freshly updated install to 7.04..   any help would be great--  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36378/
[11:44] <ward_> dyrne, i've explained him, i'll let you know if it worked when he tried it
[11:44] <Hurga> Thanks.
[11:45] <neverblue> Centaur5_, try in #ubuntu-effects, they have alot of experience with this
[11:45] <PriceChild> boojah, _please_ don't suggest users bother the developers for support in #ubuntu-devel... really isn't the place
[11:45] <epimeteo> an apache question: I have a firewall (firehol). can I install apache in feisty and be relaxed about it, or do I have to tweak some configuration to make it safer? wiki.ubuntu.com only suggest to put apache in localhost to make it secure. is there a problem to make it open to he internet?
[11:45] <ward_> thanx for the help all gtg
[11:45] <Centaur5_> neverblue: Okay, thanks.  One quick note, after rebooting restricted manager didn't show nvidia as enabled again even though I told it to install it.

[11:47] <Y_O_U_> afternoon everyone. i just installed ubuntu 7.04 onto vmware server 1.0.3 (all of which is on slackware 12). whats weird is i can ping google.com (or any other site), but cant surf there via firefox  by hostname or ip (can get to intranet sites though, via dns). tried via nat'ing and bridged connections. anyone have any suggestions? thanks!
[11:47] <azi> so, is anyone using Intel Media Graphics Accelerator 950 sucessfully?
[11:47] <CaBlGuY> once more..
[11:47] <PriceChild> azi, works out of the box
[11:47] <CaBlGuY> ok, can anyone tell me what this error means??  It's coming up now when I try to boot to my freshly updated install to 7.04..   any help would be great--  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36378/
[11:47] <m0u5e> ubuntulog: just got the comp, i wanna try out vista before i completely throw it away lol
[11:48] <ubunteroAR> Y_O_U_: how about other browsers?  other internet apps?
[11:48] <m0u5e> ubuntulog: see the problem is is that, i really need to be able to sync between windows computers without much of a hassle... buntu just doesnt really offer that -_-;
[11:48] <ubunteroAR> m0u5e: sync what?
[11:48] <Y_O_U_> ubunteroAR: does lynx count? :)
[11:49] <Jordan_U> Y_O_U_, Is the NAT'd connection from Ubuntu to slack on the same subnet as your gateway?
[11:49] <m0u5e> ubunteroAR: folders, files, settings, etc
[11:49] <Y_O_U_> ubunteroar: i am a kde guy, and the file browser in gnome wont let me go to www.whatever.com
[11:49] <m0u5e> ubunteroAR: does *buntu offer roaming profiles? that would be nice...
[11:49] <ubunteroAR> m0u5e: sync'ing settings makes no sense, but files is no problem
[11:50] <CaBlGuY> anyone??  anyoneat al???
[11:50] <CaBlGuY> :|
[11:50] <ubunteroAR> m0u5e: yes the networking stuff has profiles.  is that what you mean?
[11:50] <Y_O_U_> jordan_u: no, but even under bridged same results. and my other vm's are working with the same set up, no problem
[11:50] <Jordan_U> m0u5e, I believe network-manager does
[11:50] <braker> how do i chat
[11:50] <ubunteroAR> Y_O_U_: the file browser doesn't do web browsing in gnome...
[11:50] <Y_O_U_> jordan_u: and as i say, i can ping everything, so its not dns
[11:50] <nerdboy1024> what is the command line to print directly to a paralelle printer, it is something like echo test /dev/lp0
[11:50] <PriceChild> Y_O_U_, nautilus doesn't browse the web
[11:51] <PriceChild> Y_O_U_, it just does folders... like on your filesystems, samba, ftp etc. etc.
[11:51] <nj786> hey how do i scan something?
[11:51] <Jordan_U> Y_O_U_, You said you could only ping things that were on the intranet
[11:51] <Y_O_U_> ubunteroar, pricechild: any other apps that surf that are installed by default
[11:51] <PriceChild> Y_O_U_, firefox?
[11:51] <Jordan_U> Y_O_U_, firefox
[11:51] <azi> PriceChild: can you show me your xorg.conf and perhaps 915resolution if you use it?
[11:52] <Y_O_U_> other than firefox, thats what is not working
[11:52] <Jordan_U> !resolution | azi
