[21:12] <LjL> ubun00b: it won't connect
[21:12] <beerockxs> ubun00b: not wokring
[21:12] <DPic1> digitori, alright thanks. will that mess up my ubuntu install?
[21:12] <naxa> sorry what i have to configure is not the monitor but the video driver
[21:12] <digitori> DPic1: the jumpers on the back of your drives...sorry didnt know if you knew
[21:12] <crzedmonk> so it is just a box of borderless text?
[21:12] <toshy_> zimon, I think it's a realtek
[21:12] <crzedmonk> on terminal
[21:12] <ubun00b> damnit
[21:12] <DPic1> digitori, yeah
[21:13] <palantor> Anyone know why agp=off won't stop the boot from looking for the video card there?
[21:13] <digitori> DPic1 only if you reinstall ubuntu but you could keep your home partition
[21:13] <rafal_> ubun00b: timeout.
[21:13] <DPic1> digitori okay thanks
[21:13] <llnk> can anyone help me out with my samba printing problem? here's the url: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=629654
[21:13] <zimon> toshy_, no, analog devices is a separate codec, not a realtek
[21:13] <digitori> Dpic1: if you just installed ubuntu it wont matter, just go ahead and reinstall and get that grub on the mbr after youve swapped over your drives
[21:13] <UbuntMe> jimmygoon: how do i get the prebuilt?
[21:14] <DPic1> ok thanks
[21:14] <digitori> Dpic1: then enjoy

[21:15] <eyemean> hello does anyone know of a rainlendar chat  rooom?
[21:15] <digitori> eyemean: whats a rainlender
[21:15] <PeterT> Apologies for repeating myself:  I have installed Ubuntu Studio on my hard disk, dual booting with Vista.  (Vista bootloader is configured to refer to linux partition (hd0,5) which contains the OS & grub installation).  It worked for a time, but now I get an error early on boot that it cannot mount (hd0,5).  It's possible that this problem appeared after attempting to use hibernate.  The volume mounts with no fuss in a live CD.  Can anyo
[21:15] <PeterT> ne give me any pointers?
[21:16] <MikeH> Where can I find an MD5 checksum for the latest x64 iso? And would this successfully let me find out if the download is somehow corrupted?
[21:16] <naxa> is it normal that i dont have the package "linux" installed?

[21:17] <smookerPC1> no such file or directory
[21:17] <digitori> eyemean: will give a look later...bookmarked...cheers
[21:18] <LjL> smookerPC1: it's certainly not called cedega_[version].deb either... [version] means the actual version you're using. find out the actual file name.
[21:18] <rafal_> is this a nown problem?  E: /var/cache/apt/archives/nvidia-xconfig_1.0+20070502-1_amd64.deb: trying to overwrite `/usr/bin/nvidia-xconfig', which is also in package nvidia-glx-new
[21:18] <smookerPC1> what version i should specify ?
[21:18] <zippytech> i rebooted my machine and have a fsck,ext3 device or resoucr busy while trying to open /dev/sdb1file system mounted or opened excludivly by another program any idea's
[21:18] <eyemean> digitori, no worries, although i will say that the version 2.2 dosent seem to work ok on ubunut 7.10, which is my problem, the beta was fine
[21:18] <LjL> smookerPC1: type ls cedega*, it will tell you.
[21:18] <MikeH> anyone?
[21:19] <ijn> hi
[21:19] <smookerPC1> im new can u pls tell me the full command ?
[21:19] <LjL> smookerPC1: i just did?
[21:19] <LjL> ls cedega*
[21:20] <smookerPC1> what should i type in the console :(
[21:20] <naxa> i always have to reconfigure my video settings at startup. is it possible that i have some problem with the updated modules?
[21:20] <ijn> does anyone know how to put back the network manager icon on the sys tray??
[21:20] <LjL> smookerPC1: type "i will listen to what ljl tells me"
[21:20] <Jack_Sparrow> LjL: take care and keep up the good work..
[21:21] <digitori> PeterT: read this article see if it helps http://www.pronetworks.org/forum/about78184.html
[21:21] <smookerPC1> i will listen to what LjL tells me
[21:21] <smookerPC1> :)
[21:21] <aclark> ijn: right click on the panel, and click add to panel, then you should see network manager
[21:21] <jarle> How do I check which package supplied dvbdev.h?
[21:21] <IamReck> how do I set it up so an application runs when I start my computer?
[21:21] <LjL> smookerPC1: good. now type « ls cedega* », in the console.
[21:21] <LjL> as in: ls cedega*
[21:21] <digitori> PaterT: you still alive?
[21:21] <LjL> !find dvbdev.h | jarle
[21:21] <aclark> IamReck: go to menu>system>prefs>sessions and add it there
[21:21] <IamReck> ty
[21:21] <ubotu> jarle: File dvbdev.h found in xen-doc-2.6.16
[21:21] <ijn> aclark i don't need those two pc icon that u find in there
[21:21] <PeterT> digitori: I did successfully install / dual boot
[21:22] <ijn> I need the nm applet
[21:22] <PeterT> digitori: the problem emerged later, when everything seemed stable.
[21:22] <aclark> thats the network manager
[21:22] <smookerPC1> but after i type it nothing happens
[21:22] <Odd-rationale> Is there a terminal command to test the speakers?
[21:22] <ijn> ok maybe Im looking for something else
[21:22] <bro_man> rafal_: I don't know if it's known for your  'amd64 7.10 ubuntu' version... but I have a problem with the Nvidia driver I added in, but my problem is more likely to be 'operator error'... as I was a little drunk and forgot to match all the neccesary data...
[21:22] <ijn> let me explain
[21:22] <PeterT> digitori: I'm reading the article now
[21:22] <crimsun> Odd-rationale: speaker-test(1)
[21:22] <smookerPC1> i typed « ls cedega*
[21:22] <LjL> smookerPC1: then you simply don't have the cedega file. you better download it into the directory you're in.
[21:23] <smookerPC1> " ls cedega* "
[21:23] <zimon> toshy_, did you try ./configure --with-cards=hda-intel --with-card-options=hda-codec-analog?
[21:23] <digitori> PeterT: possible that its to do with grub not being on mbr
[21:23] <ijn> I need those two pc that let u change betwn wireless connestions
[21:23] <smookerPC1> how do i donwnload it ?
[21:23] <LjL> smookerPC1: with a web browser?
[21:23] <Odd-rationale> crimsun: What should I hear?
[21:23] <LjL> or whatever?
[21:23] <PriceChild> smookerPC1, you pay for it at transgaiming.org
[21:23] <PeterT> digitori: sounds plausible
[21:23] <smookerPC1> aw
[21:23] <Thuryn> sup?
[21:23] <toshy_> zimon: no just ./configure --with-cards=hda-intel
[21:23] <smookerPC1> ok..
[21:23] <zimon> toshy_, that should configure your driver. if that still doesn't work i'm out of ideas :-(
[21:23] <krammer> anybody good with gpart?
[21:23] <crimsun> Odd-rationale: pink noise.
[21:24] <Odd-rationale> crimsun: Got it!

[21:24] <dashua> Is it possible to play h.264 files in Totem without choppiness?
[21:24] <ijn> I know there is a command that helps you to put this icon on sys tray
[21:24] <jarle> LjL: I need list of other packages also, xen is not the one I'm looking for..
[21:24] <digitori> PeterT: I would be delighted to know your outcome.
[21:24] <rafal_> dashua: totem is using gstreamer?
[21:24] <ijn> but i dont rember it
[21:25] <PeterT> digitori: I might try that, although it might break dell mediadirect (not sure how much I care about that, but I'd rather keep it)
[21:25] <dashua> rafal_, Yes, it plays but it is lagging
[21:25] <LjL> jarle, xen is the only one that contains that file also according to my apt-file (type « apt-cache show apt-file », it's a handy tool). try looking also at http://packages.ubuntu.com - that should be most updated
[21:25] <Dirtbag> Hi all, looking for laptop users opinions. my internal wireless intel 3945 sucks, what wireless adapter(with good range)do you use or recommend?
[21:25] <PeterT> digitori: it still doesn't explain why it stopped working when things were apparantly stable
[21:25] <Jack_Sparrow> :)
[21:26] <digitori> PeterT: erm does dell media direct run off of vista or has it a bootloader of sorts?
[21:26] <rafal_> dashua: it is a bug in gstreamer.  it is fixed only in most recent SVN/CVS versions of gstreamer.... should be fixed in gentoo in month, and in Ubuntu in months I guess
[21:26] <aclark> ijn: do you have the notification area on your panel?
[21:26] <dashua> rafal_, , Ok nice thx
[21:26] <LjL> jarle, there is a dvbdevice.h in vdr-dev, but no dvbdev.h outside of xen
[21:26] <PeterT> digitori: not entirely sure, hang on...
[21:26] <ijn> aclark: you mean the bottom left??
[21:26] <bro_man> rafal_: I am not a tech, I am here like you... however, if you submit all bugs, there may be someone working on a fix for you as we speak... it is important for the community that you do... I personally would reinstall after I checked the live-disk for errors
[21:27] <digitori> PeterT: ah dell media direct is on its own partition...if you dont over write it youll be ok
[21:27] <rafal_> bro_man: I am a tech.. not in ubuntu though
[21:27] <ijn> yes I have clock sys monitor and bin
[21:27] <aclark> if your panel is on the bottom, then yes....it holds things like the nm-applet, sound, pidjin, etc
[21:27] <rafal_> bro_man: live cd had even bigger problems about playing DVDs
[21:27] <aclark> pidgin*
[21:27] <ijn> yes
[21:27] <rafal_> hmm guys, what you did to play DVDs?
[21:27] <bruenig> hmm
[21:27] <ijn> but my nm applet it disapeared
[21:28] <PeterT> digitori: I can probably test before doing anything drastic, but regardless of the fact that it's on it's own partition it will probably impact functionality if I overwrite MBR.
[21:28] <digitori>  PeterT: ah dell media direct is on its own partition...if you dont over write it youll be ok
[21:28] <aclark> is the applet running?
[21:28] <aclark>  ps -ef | grep nm-applet
[21:28] <MikeH> Can anyone make any suggestions why my install cd appears to kernel panic the moment it loads after selecting a boot option?

[21:28] <ijn> yes it's running
[21:28] <rafal_> where to one should report a bug?
[21:28] <digitori> PeterT try mbr to floppy then
[21:29] <ProN00b> can anyone recommend a sata dvd burner ?

[21:30] <Surlent> 7.10 has lots of new crap though

[21:31] <Surlent> so, anyone have any idea why a perfectly good ethernet connection would magically decide to not work 2 weeks later?

[21:32] <PeterT> digitori: ok, I could put grub on an SD card or something for test purposes, but I'd rather not rely on any kind of floppy in the long run.  On the other hand, one possibility may be to get rid of mediadirect altogether and have the special button on my laptop automatically boot ubuntu...
[21:32] <scguy318> jarle: you have installed the kernel headers?
[21:32] <PeterT> digitori: anyway, I'm off to experiment a bit, thanks.
[21:32] <larson999> MikeH, seems a bit similar but for me noapic and nolapic did the trick

[21:43] <ronni> digitori: got backups :) going to resize my /home dir... it's too big and i want to play with distros :)
[21:44] <digitori> ronni: cool.
[21:44] <bro_man> jrib: agreed
[21:44] <Dr_Willis> drigz for my audigy cards  i ofetn have to enable the digital output of the card using the alsamixer program. Or disable it if its enabled..
[21:45] <dooklash> alchat.org
[21:45] <drigz> Dr_Willis: thank you!
[21:45] <alzamabar> Hi everyone...Help pls!!!
[21:45] <drigz> Dr_Willis: that worked perfectly. perhaps that should be on a wiki somewhere?
[21:46] <digitori> alzamabar whats your problem......best just asking straight off.
[21:46] <IndyGunFreak> !ask | alzamabar
[21:46] <ubotu> alzamabar: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[21:46] <amigappc> hi, its me again ... i own a Intel Corporation 82801G card
[21:46] <UbuntMe> Pleas, will someone tell me how to install avant-window-navigator-0.2.1 which is on my desktop? pleas will someone just give me a terminal command?  Thanks
[21:46] <zejosh> FOr some reason, when im logging into to my ubuntu, my application bar etc isn't showing?
[21:46] <alzamabar> I have just installed Ubuntu on a new PC!!! Yay!!!
[21:47] <bro_man> yea!
[21:47] <LjL> UbuntMe: it isn't as easy as a terminal command. either wait for a proper ubuntu package of it, or go learn about compiling if you really have to.
[21:47] <alzamabar> The thing is this is version 6.10 Edgy Eft
[21:47] <IndyGunFreak> alzamabar: well that was a waste of time..lol
[21:47] <hypn1> :-))
[21:47] <LjL> UbuntMe: (also, there are pretty step-by-step instructions on the awn site itself, but anyway)
[21:47] <UbuntMe> LjL: ok, is there an easier way to get it?
[21:47] <alzamabar> Everything is working fine and I'm also connected to the internet.
[21:48] <alzamabar> However I'd like to upgrade to Gutsy Gibson.
[21:48] <IndyGunFreak> !enter | alzamabar get to the problem
[21:48] <ubotu> alzamabar get to the problem: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[21:48] <alzamabar> Can I do it online
[21:48] <LjL> UbuntMe: google "avant window navigator gutsy", you *will* find some .deb packages, although i really cannot say if they're any good.
[21:48] <LjL> !upgrade > alzamabar    (alzamabar, see the private message from Ubotu)
[21:48] <IndyGunFreak> alzamabar: you'll have to upgrade edgy to feisty, and then feisty to gutsy, why didn't you just download and install gutsy?
[21:48] <zejosh> FOr some reason, when im logging into to my ubuntu, my application bar etc isn't showing
[21:49] <alzamabar> I asked for the Gutsy CD, but that froze my PC
[21:49] <bro_man> alzamabar: many ways to do that online...
[21:49] <MasterShrek> zejosh, create a new user and see if the problem persists with the new user
[21:49] <IndyGunFreak> alzamabar: then you should have used the alternate install CD
[21:50] <alzamabar> I'm looking at the pvt message with the instructions online
[21:50] <IndyGunFreak> alzamabar: you can upgrade online, but your'e gonna have to upgrade edgy to feisty, then feisty go gutsy, it'd be quicker to download a gutsy iso, and reinstall.
[21:51] <caravel> help ! Following the use of alacarte, what in xdg structure could prevent most of the Prefs and System menus to show up ? They are both complete on other account on the same machine.
[21:51] <digitori> alzamabar: if its a tar.gz of your file youll find the install instrucions inside it once you extract the file
[21:51] <zejosh> I can't make a new user,
[21:51]  * civiXier is raped by kernel panic
[21:51] <IndyGunFreak> digitori: i don't think upgrading from edgy to feisty will require downloading a tarball.
[21:51] <caravel> IndyGunFreak: it all depends on your level of customization -- dist-upgrades are a lot quicker in my case
[21:51] <alzamabar> Do u know how big Gibson is?
[21:52] <IndyGunFreak> caravel: true.
[21:52] <IndyGunFreak> alzamabar: now thats a dumb question, do you think i'd ahve made such a statement when i said that?
[21:52] <LjL> alzamabar: Gibbon. Gutsy Gibbon. how big? that depends on how much stuff you have installed.
[21:52] <MikeH_> Right, my problem with the install disc not working (basically dies after progress bar for loading kernel hits 100%) - an error flashes up very quickly (with noapic nolapic noacpi) - something about not being able to access a memory range?
[21:52] <IndyGunFreak> LJL:  i think he's referring to the iso.
[21:52] <MikeH_> it flashes up for a split second, so hard to read it properly.
[21:52] <FangLiger> hey could someone help out a complete linux noob, my internet seems to disconnect everytime i try and install a package, and it doesn't come back, and the last time i ran the package manager it locked up and i had to restart
[21:52] <digitori> IndyGunFreak: nothing to with his upgrade...if he had open his tarball in the first place he would have been able to fin avantd  instakll instructions for
[21:52] <MikeH_> any ideas anyone? :(
[21:53] <LjL> alzamabar: well, the ISO is the size of a CD. around 700Mb
[21:53] <IndyGunFreak> digitori: oh, we're talking to two separate people
[21:53] <digitori> lol
[21:53] <IndyGunFreak> my bad.

[21:53] <jamescarr> hey I have a question about tsclient... how can I minimize it when it is running in full screen mode?
[21:53] <LjL> alzamabar: the normal desktop version can very well act as a server if you just install the relevant stuff.
[21:54] <jamescarr> hey I have a question about tsclient... how can I minimize it when it is running in full screen mode?
[21:54] <ethos> i'm trying to get ekiga to work but there's no sound and when i try to call someone to test, it never actually goes through...

[21:59] <darkentity> thanks guys
[21:59] <schlurchz> syslog says: "WARNING: Request for configuration key daemon/SuspendCommand=, but not type STRING"
[21:59] <robdig> speps: right click on the panel you want to delete and hit delete this panel
[21:59] <schlurchz> Any ideas what's going on here?
[21:59] <caravel> darkentity: welcome -- remember to *always* unmount it before to unplug it
[22:00] <orion> hey, could someone help me with graphic drivers? how can I display the current version I am using? ty :)
[22:00] <speps> robdig: i want to remove any instance of gnome-panel ... i don't wont any panel.
[22:00] <amigappc> ok sry but i need a little advice. ubuntu detected my soundcard bud i think he use the wrong drivers .... because i have an HD soundcard onboard
[22:00] <caravel> orion: open synaptics and search for your graphic card brand name
[22:01] <FangLiger> okay sooo everytime i try to install a package my internet disconnects and won't reconnect
[22:01] <caravel> amigappc: one often can find a switch within the sound dialog, that enables digital sound
[22:01] <jimmacdonald> Hi all I am having some difficulty with Ubuntu recognizing my video card and saving settings. I am using an Nvidia 7600 and a 22 inch wide screen monitor from Viewsonic. I know this combination worked previously (I have used it on this machine correctly) and the only thing I have changed is updates. When I run reconfigure it fails to find the correct video card.
[22:01] <robdig> speps: hmm, probably sudo apt-get remove gnome-panel
[22:01] <orion> thanks caravel. worked fine :)
[22:01] <orion> so 7.10 is already having the newest forceware
[22:02] <FangLiger> Orion: it seemed to for my 8600gt
[22:02]  * robdig likes the panels
[22:03] <tohoyn> orion: you can also look at /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[22:03] <caravel> jimmacdonald: make sure you use the restricted drivers as offered automatically at least after install, by the wizard in the notification area
[22:03] <tohoyn> orion: search for Driver there
[22:03] <caravel> jimmacdonald: then install nvidia-settings
[22:03] <wubrgamer> hey guys, http://pastebin.com/d5ce6fe38
[22:03] <wubrgamer> that's my first crontab, and it's not working, could someone edit it and sent me the new one ?
[22:03] <ben_> can anyone tell me how to load my ndiswrapper on startup?
[22:03] <caravel> jimmacdonald: and let you guided .. it should work out of the box on most cases
[22:03] <jimmacdonald> I run sudo nvidia-settings and it correctly identifies my card and monitor.
[22:04] <FangLiger> okay so can someone help me, everytime i try to install a package my wireless internet drops
[22:04] <preaction> wubrgamer, instead of 1,2,3,4,5,6 why not do: 1-6.
[22:05] <caravel> jimmacdonald: so what is your issue ?
[22:05] <K_Dallas> Evening folks! What is the easiest and the most opensource way to present a powerpoint2007 presentation under ubuntu? I converted it to 2003 and openined in OOo but it is missing some annimations.
[22:05] <danbhfive> ben_: how did you install ndiswrapper?  I've never had that issue
[22:05] <thor> wubrgamer you need to supply full paths....~ won't work
[22:05] <thor> wubrgamer and there should be no need for the '&'
[22:05] <jimmacdonald> same as I stated before... when I boot up my video settings are lower than my monitor and card are capable of and I can't reset them.
[22:05] <danbhfive> ben_ I can show you the directions that I followed, if you like...
[22:05] <caravel> FangLiger: from your previous messages it looks like your dependancies are not satisfied
[22:06] <FangLiger> ..........i have no idea what that means.......
[22:06] <digitori> KDallas: try using open office presentation with your powerpoint file
[22:06] <ben_> everytime i boot my computer i have to run sudo ndiswrapper -i bcmwl5.inf, sudo ndiswrapper -l, ndiswrapper -m, and sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
[22:06] <wubrgamer> http://pastebin.com/m647ac24e does that work
[22:06] <K_Dallas> digitori, as i said, i actually did this and it was 99% ok but not for all the transition effects
[22:06] <FangLiger> .....i have a girlfriend if that's what you mean......
[22:06] <caravel> FangLiger: you may want to search for the doc on the web site, that explains how to fix your dependancies -- sorry I do not know this as well as my multiplication tables
[22:06] <psi__> i'm just new to ubuntu, but wondering, where can i change the size of the desktop icons ? I've looked trough all menu's but couldn't find it ...
[22:06] <caravel> FangLiger: lol
[22:07] <digitori> K_Dallas: ah i never fully read...why did you convert it?
[22:07] <FangLiger> lol thanks
[22:07] <robdig> wubrgamer: not sure you can start a graphical command like xeyes from cron...if you want it to start when you log in use system->preferences->sessions
[22:07] <K_Dallas> digitori, it was 2007 format
[22:07] <ben_> danbhfive: if you think it would help i'd be willing to give it a shot
[22:07] <K_Dallas> digitori, could openoffice2.3 opens 2007 files?
[22:07] <digitori> K_Dallas oh that problem
[22:07] <Dextorion> K_Dallas, those docx files?
[22:07] <K_Dallas> yes
[22:07] <wubrgamer> how WOULD you start a graphical program from cron ?
[22:07] <Dextorion> K_Dallas, no
[22:07] <wubrgamer> or at a specified time ?
[22:07] <digitori> K_Dallas: one sec
[22:07] <K_Dallas> (pptx in this case)
[22:07] <beerockxs> is it somehow possible to update to 64 bit ubuntu without reinstalling?
[22:08] <Dextorion> K_Dallas, then again, those docx files is a archived file..
[22:08] <jrib> !cron > wubrgamer (read the private message from ubotu)
[22:08] <K_Dallas> Dextorion, indeed
[22:08] <jrib> wubrgamer: use 'at' if you want a specified time just once...
[22:08] <Dextorion> K_Dallas, you probably could uncompress those with... archiver or fileroller or such.
[22:08] <danbhfive> ben_ did you add ndiswrapper to /etc/modules  ?
[22:08] <Kagar> Could someone go to the Ubuntu-Offtopic and tell them that I am really sorry and I was Ignorant, please forgive me Pici.
[22:08] <caravel> robdig: wubrgamer Sessions will add an autostart entry in your .config I think, if you are interested
[22:08] <Dextorion> K_Dallas, no idea how ease it is to sort out the data in them though.
[22:08] <ben_> no, how do i do that?
[22:08] <danbhfive> Kagar what happened?
[22:08] <K_Dallas> Dextorion, when i double click on those files, they actually uncompress under ubuntu
[22:08] <dooglus> wubrgamer: you can't be sure anyone's going to be logged in at any particular time
[22:09] <jrib> wubrgamer: so pastebin your crontab
[22:09] <Kagar> Someone was discussing 4chan and I didn't know what it was
[22:09] <PeterPan_> does any one know a gui to iptabes firewall that auto asks for each connection and app to permit or not. and then makes that rule for future. ? and does not allow any other connection or app unless permited.?
[22:09] <Dextorion> K_Dallas, ah.. there you go then.
[22:09] <Kagar> and I posted something about 4chan and I got in trouble

[22:09] <Kagar> Flannel -- can you tell Pici I'm sorry
[22:09] <dooglus> wubrgamer: cron jobs run whenever the machine is booted - it may be that nobody has logged in yet, so which display would the programs run on?  what if 2 people were logged on?
[22:09] <Kagar> oh, gotcha Flannel
[22:09] <Dextorion> digitori, once crazy url you got there mate. O_o

[22:18] <htmldotcom1> danbhfive: I have to go into recovery terminal to have any access at all.
[22:18] <kINTO> ok
[22:18] <kINTO> thanks
[22:18] <bluefox83> caravel, instead of putting grub on sda3, try just dsa

[22:19] <caravel> steve_b: nothing to do with these games :)
[22:19] <jarle> I have a machine that uses evms for a large storage group, after upgrading to gutsy my machine will not boot if I have evms installed (it just stops at initramfs), 1. How can I make it boot even if evms is installed? 2. Is it possible to access the data on the evms storage group without evms installed?
[22:19] <K_Dallas> no worry digitori , i am going to connect my laptop tp internet and see what i could come up with , thank you anyways
[22:19] <steve_b> caravel, just a weird coincidence (if that's how you spell it!)
[22:19] <kravlin> hey. anyone know why the shutdown and reboot buttons dissapeared on my computer and how to fix it?
[22:20] <digitori> K_Dallas good luck.
[22:20] <fxr> anyone fancy helping me with my depency issues? i am copying over required debs for a build enviroment, and now ve found 2 packages which require the other, but i cant install one cos it needs the other and vice versa :s

[22:20] <beerockxs> is it somehow possible to update to 64 bit ubuntu without reinstalling?
[22:20] <htmldotcom1> im desparate here :)
[22:20] <steve_b> kravlin, the same thing happened to me!  I don't know why either!
[22:20] <jc_> ...
[22:20] <caravel> bluefox83: sda is not what I want, I do not know if this laptop is tatooed and I have no time to investigate it out
[22:20] <danbhfive> anyone know of a better irc client than pidgin?  this doesnt seem all that functional
[22:20] <usser> fxr, force install one then install the other
[22:20] <bro_man> kravlin: mine did too when I was on Edgy because of something I did... but when I upgraded, they came back

[22:21] <htmldotcom1> revx I agree
[22:21] <mikko777> but if you use irssi you shouldnt use ubuntu
[22:21] <htmldotcom1> Im using irssi right now
[22:21] <usser> arrg
[22:21] <kravlin> bro_man: the LTS version
[22:21] <robdig> jarle: not good news...look at this...https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Evms
[22:21] <caravel> steve_b: caravel is a contraction of "caracol veloz" -- too long story to flood it here ;b
[22:21] <revx> but right now I'd like to get this display working :/
[22:21] <htmldotcom1> ehy mikko777?
[22:21] <htmldotcom1> why*?
[22:21] <jsoftw> Oh really.
[22:21] <mikko777> irssi=complicated -> theres better distros for complicated ppl ^^
[22:21] <revx> ...
[22:22] <revx> irssi is easy!
[22:22] <jsoftw> mikko777: whatever.
[22:22] <jarle> robdig: I was just reading that page and was hoping for some more input here...
[22:22] <mikko777> indeed.
[22:22] <amigappc> i need an advice ... toshiba p100-10u arent playing sound
[22:22] <danbhfive> htmldotcom1: did you try the top command?  That will tell you what is eating away at your cpu
[22:22] <jsoftw> mikko777: that really was a stupid statement
[22:22] <mikko777> jsoftw: was it?
[22:22] <jsoftw> yes.
[22:22] <mikko777> jsoftw: im sad now :P
[22:23] <jarle> robdig: I was hoping that my TB storage didn't have to be reformatted...
[22:23] <steve_b> I have a problem wih my wireless - it disconnects sometimes, and I have to reboot to get it to work again
[22:23] <Slart> I have at some point installed mysql... can't remember when or how.. and now I want to install an application that wants to use my mysql database and I need the "administrative user" password.. is there a way I find out what this password is? if I reset this password I guess I'll break the original app that needed mysql.. hints?
[22:23] <bro_man> kravlin: I am not a tech, but there are many here that will have great insight into the situation... have patience, someone will get to you...
[22:23] <steve_b> anyone got any ideas what this could be?
[22:23] <desertc> QUESTION: Why is rsync not copying hidden files (ones starting with a . ) ?
[22:23] <kravlin> bro_man: yeah. i figured they would.
[22:23] <robdig> jarle: i can understand why...
[22:23] <MrPockets> steve_b:  Im no expert, but it sounds like its a problem
[22:23] <jrib> Slart: reset the password and update it where necessary
[22:24] <Slart> jrib: you mean.. wait until I find out something isn't running as it should and then update =)
[22:24] <kravlin> bro_man: i just plan on spamming about every page until someone notices.
[22:24] <htmldotcom1> Is anyone going to help me?
[22:24] <steve_b> MrPockets ???
[22:24] <robdig> jarle: perhaps they can help at #evms?
[22:24] <jarle> robdig: but lvm != evms?
[22:24] <danbhfive> did you run the top command?
[22:24] <digitori> krqavlin do you mean the shut down and reboot buttons on your menu or applet on the taskbar?
[22:24] <revx> Why is a computer restart required when a line of my xorg.conf changes from driver "vesa" to driver "fglrx"?
[22:24] <bro_man> kravlin: be sure to state your version when you get a turn...
[22:24] <jrib> Slart: sure
[22:24] <steve_b> MrPockets I'm guessin you hit return a bit prematurely there!  ;-)
[22:24] <htmldotcom1> so what I did was, I wanted to add KDE to my computer. I already added fluxbox with sudo apt-get install fluxbox, so I was in a good moode. SO then, I looked at a tutorial. It said "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop" would do it. So I did that. My computer started being really slow, so I did a Ctrl+Alt+Backspace. Now, I can't even get to the login screen.
[22:24] <jrib> Slart: I assume you've guessed your user's password and that didn't work?
[22:25] <MrPockets> what the HELL do you want?
[22:25] <mikko777> revx its not
[22:25] <PeterPan> does any one know a gui to iptabes firewall that auto asks for each connection and app to permit or not. and then makes that rule for future. ? and does not allow any other connection or app unless permited.?
[22:25] <Slart> jrib: ok... guess I'll do that.. was hoping for some kind of configuration file for mysql..
[22:25] <danbhfive> htmldotcom1: why dont you just remove kubuntu-desktop?
[22:25] <Slart> jrib: yea.. I've tried my usual ones
[22:25] <kravlin> bro_man: yeah. I've been here a couple times. I'm sure i'll get help sometime. Easiest way? just threaten to go back to windows.
[22:26] <htmldotcom1> what I did was, I wanted to add KDE to my computer. I already added fluxbox with sudo apt-get install fluxbox, so I was in a good mood. So then, I looked at a tutorial. It said "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop" would do it. So I did that. My computer started being really slow, so I did a Ctrl+Alt+Backspace. Now, I can't even get to the login screen. The only access I have is a root terminal in recovery mode.
[22:26] <htmldotcom1> SOMEONE PLEASE HELP
[22:26] <kravlin> hey. anyone know why the shutdown and reboot buttons dissapeared on my computer and how to fix it?
[22:26] <digitori> Kravlin: will anyone really care if you threaten them by going back?  I asked you if you meant stop start on your menu or applet on your taskvbar?
[22:26] <buggeredfstab> Hi, I'm still having a problem with being able to see my second hard drive. I have already posted on the forums: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=629676
[22:26] <jrib> htmldotcom1: there is no need for that.  Be patient please
[22:27] <bro_man> kravlin: ...... hmmm.... many people here have important issues as well... spamming is kind of a rude term... just watch the flow of information and wait for a good time...
[22:27] <desertc> digitori: They are a task bar applet.  Just right click on your task bar and add them back.
[22:27] <mikko777> htmldotcom1: did you run out of hd space?
[22:27] <htmldotcom1> sorry jrib, its so frantic in here I just want to make sure I'm not forgotten. If you can reccomend any other steps, thats fine.
[22:27] <desertc> digitori:  oops
[22:27] <bro_man> kravlin: lol @ 'windows'
[22:27] <desertc> kravlin:  They are a task bar applet.  Just right click on your task bar and add them back.
[22:27] <digitori> desetc: yeah I know that....wanted to know if krav had lost em from the menu or the taskbar
[22:27] <kravlin> digatori: it was a joke. I would never go back. Its in the applet. I can reboot from the command line fine.
[22:27] <htmldotcom1> mikko777: no, I have ~15 GB free
[22:27] <digitori> hehe
[22:27] <skyfalcon866> is it possbile to install ubuntu onto a secondary sata drive
[22:27] <htmldotcom1> on that partiton
[22:28] <mikko777> htmldotcom1: well install gdm again and launch fluxbox
[22:28] <steve_b> Hey can anyone help me with my wifi problem?  It randomly disconnects and won't connect again properly until I reboot the computer...
[22:28] <skyfalcon866> is it possbile to install ubuntu onto a secondary sata drive
[22:28] <kravlin> desertc: its from the button on the menu. When the applet pops up it displays log out, Hibernate, Log out and switch user but no reboot or shutdown.
[22:28] <htmldotcom1> miko777: how would I go about doing that? sudo apt-get install gdm ?
[22:28] <htmldotcom1> 17:28 (  mikko777 ) htmldotcom1: well install gdm again and launch fluxbox
[22:28] <digitori> kravlin: its ok im not angry...i dont really get angry
[22:28] <steve_b> skyfalcon866 Yeah I had ubuntu installed on my second hard disk with windows on the first if thats what you mean
[22:29] <mikko777> htmldotcom1: something like that i guess
[22:29] <jrib> buggeredfstab: you are positive that this is an ext3 partition?  Did it work before?
[22:29] <desertc> kravlin: no idea
[22:29] <htmldotcom1> ill try that now.
[22:29]  * digitori says i just tp my fingers on desk like crazy and go red faced
[22:29] <kravlin> digatori: i figured. Just putting me in my place (which is completely reasonable)
[22:29] <buggeredfstab> jrib: it should be ext3. and I think it did work before, but only once
[22:30] <digitori> Some really interesting problems passing through here
[22:30] <Swardmasta> going off subject for a while, but any suggestions on a mp3 for Amarok
[22:30] <robdig> kravlin: are you still part of admin group (and maybe adm too)
[22:30] <buggeredfstab> jrib: there's nothing valuable on it, so if I just have to reformat it, I will. But I gotta get to the point of being able to interact with it
[22:30] <mikko777> ubuntu channel is teh fun!
[22:30] <buggeredfstab> Swardmasta: Try iAudio

[22:31] <adamonline45> hello everyone.  I got madwifi installed ok, and modprobed it, but I don't see my device, as the tutorial says I should.  Does anyone know what could be wrong?
[22:32] <adrenergic> i know my modems chipset, ie, Conexant RH56D-11, linuxent gives its driver on money... does anyone knows where to download its full version without pay :(
[22:32]  * digitori needs a strong coffee thats whats wrong

[22:32] <Triskaidekaphobi> adamonline45: what wifi card are you using?
[22:32] <jrib> buggeredfstab: ok, well to use the backup suberblock, you would get a list with 'mke2fs -n /dev/sdb1' and then 'e2fsck -b NUMBER /dev/sdb1'.  Finally, you don't want to fdisk /media/sdb1, you want to fdisk a device
[22:32] <LjL> adrenergic: i think there is a free of cost alternative, possibly slower, check out this page.
[22:32] <LjL> !modem > adrenergic    (adrenergic, see the private message from Ubotu)
[22:32] <kravlin> digatori: been googling it for a while. figured it out. Its an option that was disabled somehow. they're back now.
[22:33] <cptinternet> how do I disable the onboard wireless card so it doesn't show up in the wireless manager?
[22:33] <digitori> kravlin: cool
[22:33] <Tweek888> hello
[22:33] <kravlin> digatori: yep.
[22:33] <kravlin> digatori: now to figure out how to upgrade from 6.06.
[22:33] <adamonline45> Triskaidekaphobi: It uses the net5416 driver, the model name I'm not sure of.  But I got to the point where I was able to at least see the card in iwconfig before I reinstalled Ubuntu, so I'm sure it's supported.
[22:33] <cptinternet> basically, more expanded question, is there a command to disable a particular device?
[22:34] <Tweek888> I installed KDE a few days back, and now my gnome sessions don't show desktop icons, what should I do? uninstall kde?
[22:34] <danbhfive> is htmldotcom1 still here?
[22:34] <htmldotcom1> yes!!
[22:34] <jrib> Tweek888: what does 'gconftool-2 -g /apps/nautilus/preferences/show_desktop' return?
[22:34] <buggeredfstab> jrib: mke2 shows permission denied
[22:35] <danbhfive> do you still need help?
[22:35] <digitori> kravlin quickest route would be new install and dont wipe your home partition unless youve backed it up
[22:35] <jrib> buggeredfstab: you need sudo on both of the commands I gave you
[22:35] <adrenergic> yes but i know what you all people mean... but if the OS, ie, Ubuntu is free why is the driver not free? it's very strange.... they do privide slow version but... i wonder when have the Linux PEOPLE started greed for money
[22:35] <htmldotcom1> yes
[22:35] <Tweek888> jrib, false
[22:35] <Tweek888> how would I set true?
[22:35] <jrib> buggeredfstab: make sure sdb isn't mounted anywhere
[22:35] <jrib> Tweek888: gconf-editor
[22:35] <Tweek888> oh thanks :)
[22:35] <danbhfive> ok, here is what will help me, every message that you send to me, preface it with my name
[22:35] <danbhfive> danbhfive
[22:35] <fredrik> Is it pissible to mount a .iso as /cdrom/ ? Iḿ trying to reinstall soundcard drivers and it asks for my ubuntu cd, but my DVD-rom does not want to be found by my pc (need a new). Is there a way of emulating /cdrom/ ?
[22:35] <LjL> !mountiso > fredrik    (fredrik, see the private message from Ubotu)
[22:36] <htmldotcom1> danbhfive: yes I do need help still
[22:36] <caravel> pretty please I need help with xdg/alacarte -- can't find anything on the web. Following the use of alacarte, what in xdg structure could prevent most of the Prefs and System menus to show up ? They are both complete on other account on the same machine.
[22:36] <kravlin> digitori: yeah. but this computer has issues. I tried the install with Gutsy and when i booted into the live cd the mouse wouldn't work. dapper did.
[22:36] <Dr_Willis> !iso | fredrik
[22:36] <ubotu> fredrik: To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[22:36] <cptinternet> can't find anywhere if there's a command to disable a particular PCI device
[22:36] <danbhfive> htmldotcom1: so, is your computer still running slow?  or is just not working?
[22:36] <digitori> kravlin try using the alternative cd instead
[22:36] <digitori> kravlin: or throw your mouse to the cat and buy a new one?
[22:37] <kravlin> digitori: I figured that since i've got a working version here i might as well work with it.
[22:37] <Triskaidekaphobi> adamonline45: from a terminal execute: sudo lspci -nnv > ~/adamlspci and paste it on postbin
[22:37] <htmldotcom1> its not working. whenever it gets to the point where it would normally display the login screen, I just get a waiting cursor. I have to shut down after that because its stuck.
[22:37] <kravlin> digitori: and i would. but i needed a ps2 mouse and didn't haveone.
[22:37] <Triskaidekaphobi> pastebin! adamonline45
[22:37] <danbhfive> htmldotcom1: can you get to a terminal?
[22:37] <digitori> kravlin good point.
[22:37] <htmldotcom1> danbhfive: yes, the recovery root terminal
[22:37] <Triskaidekaphobi> pastebin!: adamonline45
[22:37] <digitori> kravlin whats up with usb mice?
[22:38] <danbhfive> htmldotcom1: ok, try sudo apt-get install -f
[22:38] <LjL> !pastebin | Triskaidekaphobi, adamonline45

[22:38] <caravel> is there any whitepaper that describes entirely xdg's menu building, inclusion and exclusion processes ?
[22:38] <buggeredfstab> jrib: Ok, I just ran them both. Output is on the forum
[22:38] <htmldotcom1> danbhfive: -f? what does that do?
[22:38] <Triskaidekaphobi> thanks LjL
[22:38] <htmldotcom1> 17:38 ( danbhfive ) htmldotcom1: ok, try sudo apt-get install -f
[22:38] <jrib> caravel: no idea, have you checked freedesktop.org?
[22:38] <kravlin> digitori: they're plug and play in windows while ps2 isnt?
[22:38] <danbhfive> htmldotcom1: i think it means force.  Basically, it will try to install any packages that previously failed to install
[22:38] <caravel> jrib: don't know where to continue searching :(
[22:38] <cptinternet> Is there a command to disable a particular PCI device through the command line? can't figure out how to do it in the GUI
[22:39] <kravlin> digitori: and unfortunately most of the world uses windows.
[22:39] <Triskaidekaphobi> adamonline45: then post the url of your pastebin page here and i'll (we'll) have a look
[22:39] <AdioHyperion> hello everyone
[22:39] <Tweek888> one last problem, I can't seem to connect to my local shared folders from my brother's windows box, it was working not long ago. I have tried everything I can think of.
[22:39] <fredrik> hmm was no problem at all, i just mispelled media/cdrom/ insted of /media/cdrom/
[22:39] <digitori> kravlin i cant remember I use usb on linux and only use windows in virtual machine so it works
[22:39] <Tweek888> how do I trouble shoot that?
[22:39] <jrib> buggeredfstab: NUMBER means use a number from the last command
[22:39] <htmldotcom1> danbhfive: ok. I also want to mention that I did a sudo apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop, and I removed it.
[22:39] <robdig> kravlin: for your missing shutdown button, take a look at the last post on this page...hope it helps http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=417755
[22:39] <larson999> soon as i figure out how to compile 32 bit programs i'll be all set
[22:40] <kravlin> digitori: i use windows for gaming... So i have to have a dual boot computer.
[22:40] <digitori> robdig: i think he found his buttons

[22:40] <AdioHyperion> could someone help me get samba installed
[22:40] <steve_b> my wifi connection keeps getting dropped, and I can't connect again until I reboot my computer.  Can anybody help me figure out why???
[22:40] <kravlin> robdig: yeah. we figured it out. Some option had been disabled. Thanks though!
[22:40] <jrib> buggeredfstab: but that didn't work anyway, so forget that.  Are there any other partitions on sdb?
[22:40] <adamonline45> Triskaidekaphobi: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/46638/
[22:40] <htmldotcom1> danbhfive: but it only removed about 50 KB worth of data, while the fill kde install was about 500 MB worth of data
[22:40] <robdig> digitori: cool, thanks
[22:40] <larson999> oh, for everything
[22:40] <htmldotcom1> full*
[22:40] <digitori> kravlin I use a seperate comp for that
[22:40] <buggeredfstab> jrib: there shouldnt be
[22:40] <larson999> then again, i only play open source games
[22:40] <digitori> could be bothered with Db anymore
[22:40] <jrib> buggeredfstab: reformat it then.  Use gparted if you want
[22:41] <buggeredfstab> ok
[22:41] <kravlin> digitori: I'm a high school student. I have no money.
[22:41] <htmldotcom1> thanks for your help guys, ill be back later I can assure you.
[22:41] <digitori> kravlin: Im an ewok, im skint too
[22:41] <AdioHyperion> would someone help me get samba installed
[22:41] <danbhfive> htmldotcom1: ok, well, let me know if the command did anything, also, you can run sudo apt-get autoremove
[22:41] <htmldotcom1> email me at<EMAIL_ADDRESS>if you have any more ideas.
[22:41] <Tweek888> how can I troubleshoot problems with a local shared folder to my brother's computer? it was working a few days ago
[22:42] <htmldotcom1> I will danbhfive, ill be back later.
[22:42] <htmldotcom1> byes.
[22:42] <digitori> kravlin: off topic but what you studying?

[22:54] <andrew_> I've been looking for the last 2 days for a fix for this, and nothing has worked
[22:54] <jargon> or you van just double click on the .deb file in your file browser and it will ask for your password.
[22:54] <LjL> PeterPan: the best for me is knowing which services i'm running :)
[22:54] <adamonline45> Triskaidekaphobi: Alright, thank you :)  i'll be here!
[22:54] <choudesh> AdioHyperion: I sent you a PM.
[22:55] <digitori> mikebeecham: so you should be...got me grinning here
[22:55] <choudesh> AdioHyperion: Please state your problem in the channel here

[22:55] <choudesh> !find samba > choudesh
[22:55] <AdioHyperion> i am in a chat with you...
[22:55] <jrib> Jarhyn: there is a bug for that issue on bugs.ubuntu.com
[22:55] <mikebeecham> Digitori...to be honest, i'm surprised more people have not thought of it....I know that people have settled for an ugly version of CS2 running on wine, but it's even better to have CS3 running with no lag and FULL SCREEN as well
[22:56] <AdioHyperion> what does that mean?
[22:56] <mikebeecham> digitori: xara looks good
[22:56] <Jarhyn> I know this. it still does not help me fix the PROBLEM
[22:56] <digitori> mikebeecham: I havent gone to CS3 yet
[22:56] <jrib> Jarhyn: there are a couple of workarounds in the comments
[22:56] <choudesh> AdioHyperion: try to `apt-get install smbfs`
[22:56] <tds5016> hey. does anyone know if compiz works with swing now?
[22:56] <robdig> andrew__: i found this, maybe it will help?
[22:56] <AdioHyperion> i tried that also
[22:56] <MadHatter349> hey
[22:57] <mikebeecham> digitori: you really need to.  Apart from the upgrade of the GUI, there's lots of neat functionality for helping workflow, and it's integration into Bridge CS3 is SO nice
[22:57] <AdioHyperion> same thing

[22:59] <mikebeecham> digitori: ok...well, I'm sure you're going to get on great with it...one of the best bits of CS3 is it's load-up time...it's SO much quicker than CS and CS2...really a fraction of the time

Then my video started to blink in and out, and so I hit the reset button on my computer. When I

I turned it back on, there were no artifacts, and so I went into Ubuntu. When I got to the login screen, my monitor suddenly went to sleep, but I moved the mouse and that seemed to wake it back up.

[23:12] <seeitcoming> verb3k: Cheers :D
[23:13] <digitori> mikebeecham: ok :-)
[23:13] <Jarhyn> I guess I'll re-burn it in a non-UDF file format on a different computer
[23:13] <torben> i've changed gutsy to hardy in /etc/apt/sources.list and did an upgrade. but i still habe the 2.6.22-14 kernel
[23:13] <Jarhyn> thanks for the help
[23:13] <Triskaidekaphobi> adamonline45: madwifi. The stable tree of that driver does not support this recent chipset yet (as of 2007/04/18), but there is a beta branch with a more recent hal with basic support. However, only unencrypted connections work at the moment with that branch, WPA is still broken. (page: http://en.opensuse.org/MacBook_Pro_Specials#Networking_.2F_WLAN )
[23:13] <LjL> !hardy > torben    (torben, see the private message from Ubotu)
[23:13] <choudesh> AdioHyperion: ok - boot into ubuntu. then click System->Admin->Software Sources
[23:13] <choudesh> AdioHyperion: the reason you can't find it is because you have the needed repositories commented out.
[23:13] <digitori> mikebeecham: I take it you mean the sound theme?
[23:14] <AdioHyperion> choudesh: my ubuntu is on a seperate computer - so i can go back and forth
[23:14] <mikebeecham> yup
[23:14] <jrib> buggeredfstab: not sure
[23:14] <choudesh> AdioHyperion: ok - then click on System->Admin->Software Sources
[23:14] <AdioHyperion> choudesh: im there
[23:14] <bargarux> hi
[23:14] <Ashfire908> what's that command line wen browser? not  w3m or elinks but that other one...
[23:14] <digitori> fsckr...install of win thingmy bobbery always takes flippin ages
[23:14] <choudesh> AdioHyperion: and make sure all the checkboxes are clicked under Ubuntu Software
[23:14] <Jarhyn> where is sources.list?
[23:15] <choudesh> Jarhyn: /etc/apt
[23:15] <LjL> Ashfire908: lynx, links2
[23:15] <Jarhyn> thanks much
[23:15] <Ashfire908> LjL, yes
[23:15] <Ashfire908> thanks
[23:15] <buggeredfstab> jrib: ok. It's a minimal loss for me, so I aint too worried. But it seems to be taking a while for gparted to scan everything, and then it just ends.
[23:15] <bargarux> Jarhyn: in /etc/apt/sources.list
[23:15] <jrib> buggeredfstab: yeah, it does that... did it still create everything ok?
[23:15] <LjL> Ashfire908: those are all text-mode web browsers, though. if you want a *command line* web browser, that's edbrowse
[23:15] <AdioHyperion> choudesh:  ok all 5 boxes are checked
[23:16] <choudesh> AdioHyperion: then click close
[23:16] <buggeredfstab> jrib: checking right now. I think it did, but I just want to make sure
[23:16] <Ashfire908> LjL, text-mode
[23:16] <Ashfire908> *is what i meant
[23:16] <choudesh> AdioHyperion: now open terminal and `sudo apt-get install samba smbfs`
[23:16] <lwizardl> is there anyway to create a non journalized hfs+ partition using ubuntu apps
[23:16] <lwizardl> ?
[23:16] <AdioHyperion> choudesh: its downloading some package information
[23:17] <choudesh> AdioHyperion: that is fine. when it is done, then open terminal.
[23:17] <bargarux> bye
[23:17] <digitori> mikebeecham: hmmmm tangerine dream: borealis sounds are cool
[23:17] <digitori> mikebeecham: that is so going onto my ubuntu
[23:17] <h4p0> hi guys!
[23:18] <mikebeecham> digitori: stick me with kid...I'll take you places :D
[23:18] <AdioHyperion> choudesh: its working!!!
[23:18] <ubun00b> have anyone else experienced that opera suddenly loads websites very slowly?
[23:18] <fsckr> hmm digitori switching it to one processor instead of 2 seems to fix it .... go figure
[23:18] <h4p0> i've goto a little problem...I would change the tty console resolution
[23:18] <h4p0> *got
[23:18] <choudesh> AdioHyperion: if you need help configuring samba - give me a few minutes and I will help. I want to grab something to eat.
[23:18] <digitori> fsckr: maybe one of your cores is knacked
[23:18] <ubun00b> at the same time the website loads fast in firefox
[23:18] <h4p0> kernel		/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.22-14-generic root=UUID=da302655-21f2-4448-a2e9-3785a5d75266 ro quiet splash
[23:18] <h4p0> vga=792
[23:18] <ubun00b> websites
[23:18] <IndyGunFreak> digitori: i was just looking at those sounds myself.
[23:19] <AdioHyperion> choudesh: could that be the same reason why ubuntu couldnt install some codecs?
[23:19] <fsckr> digitori, no everything else runs great
[23:19] <AdioHyperion> choudesh: yeah i need to grab a bite to eat also
[23:19] <fsckr> its just this vm :)
[23:19] <Jarhyn> speaking of commented entries in sources.list, does simply uncommenting the entries make the repositories activate?
[23:19] <digitori> IndyGunFreak: mmm yeah make a nice change to the soundfiles
[23:19] <IndyGunFreak> yup
[23:19] <LjL> Jarhyn: not until you « sudo apt-get update » or the equivalent operation in Synaptic
[23:19] <Jarhyn> rodger that
[23:19] <dandelions> hi, could someone help me? I just installed Gutsy this afternoon and now it won't boot, it hangs where the splash screen ought to be
[23:19] <h4p0> this changes the resolution in boot phase...but not the resolution of the tty console....
[23:20] <digitori> fsckr: be interesting to find a solution...at least when ive got two cpu's running
[23:20] <dandelions> The splash screen settings are the right size, so it's not that
[23:20]  * digitori thinks he is the oldest kid in town
[23:20] <h4p0> yeah! that works perfectly fr the splash screen...
[23:20] <dandelions> I put in my username and password and I get a peachy screen with a mouse cursor, I can move the mouse but all I can actually do is ctrl-alt-backspace
[23:20] <h4p0> but I would change the resolution of the console
[23:21] <adamonline45> Triskaidekaphobi: Do you know what it means when it says "AR5008 support is available in trunk"?
[23:21] <h4p0> how can I do?
[23:21] <fsckr> digitori, when i finish installing xp on here and installing the vmware tools ill change it back to 2 processors and see what happens :)
[23:21] <buggeredfstab> jrib: in gparted, it shows both extended and unallocated.
[23:21] <digitori> fsckr: hey let me know how you get on
[23:21] <adamorjames> I was wondering. What command would I use to make gnome-terminal "stay on top".
[23:21] <robdig> dandelions: do you get a menu at the top? ubuntu doesn't come with icons on the desktop...
[23:22] <dandelions> I get absolutely nothing
[23:22] <fsckr> digitori, will do its finishing up the xp install now with no problems....before it would take ages
[23:22] <Jarhyn> also, I tried compiling a kernel that enabled built-in rather than module UDF support as the only change in the config, and it managed to kernel-panic
[23:22] <dandelions> I'm used to having a splash screen there, and it booted a few times with a splash
[23:22] <dandelions> But now it's just peach, my panel and desktop icons never come up
[23:22] <h4p0> dandelions-- any Idea ?
[23:22] <BigToe7000> obviously not, blud
[23:22] <smooker_> someone help, my sound doesnt work :(((
[23:22] <digitori> fsckr: vmware must have a problem dealing with two cores but it shouldnt!
[23:23] <digitori> fsck: maybe its xp that has the prob
[23:23] <dandelions> I had a problem earlier where it wiped the contents of my desktop directory, but that's not what's happened here, I can see the desktop files via windows (I dual boot with xp, ran feisty til earlier on today)
[23:23] <fsckr> digitori, dunno soon as this install is finished ill find out
[23:23] <PeterPan_> http://img86.imageshack.us/img86/6246/snapshot6ol9.jpg  what should i do?
[23:24] <digitori> top class video and dvd editing on ubuntu and im done with wondows forever
[23:24] <lwizardl> is there anyway to create a non journalized HFS+ partition using only Linux applications like Gparted etc?
[23:24] <AdioHyperion> "dont get windows vista! get ubuntu!"
[23:25] <digitori> brb time for a glass of roseeeee
[23:25] <dandelions> So, does anyone know what I might have done so that it's suddenly stopped working?
[23:25] <fsckr> digitori, yum
[23:25] <tomd123> at least you can try the latter for free :)
[23:25] <fsckr> digitori, pour me a glass
[23:25] <digitori> Virus Intruders Spyware Trojans Adware
[23:25] <digitori> Vista
[23:25] <AdioHyperion> the only reason to have windows is to play games
[23:26] <adamonline45> AdioHyperion: I second that
[23:26] <adamorjames> I was wondering. What command would I use to make gnome-terminal "stay on top".
[23:26] <AdioHyperion> but then again thats what a 360 and ps3 is for
[23:26] <naxa2> hi! can i make wallpaper to be chosen randomly from a directory every time? or maybe even update in 30 seconds?
[23:26] <Jarhyn> heh, I changed to ubuntu after vista ate 80% of my memory on bootup
[23:26] <dandelions> No, the reason to have Windows is so when Ubuntu breaks you can still get on the internet.
[23:26] <Jarhyn> I haven't seen ubuntu go past 70 even running everything I have
[23:26] <Dr_Willis> dandelions thats what live cd;s are for. :)
[23:26] <digitori> fsckr: sure...and i get to drink it hehe.....its a box of Franzia californian rose...strawberries raspberries and stuff tastes as great as ubuntu runs
[23:26] <tomd123> dandelions: wait till you use linux for a longer time, then you will never say that statement ever again :P
[23:26] <dandelions> I don't have a live cd, I ran the upgrade from Feisty. Feisty worked fine.
[23:26] <PeterPan_> http://img86.imageshack.us/img86/6246/snapshot6ol9.jpg  what should i do?
[23:26] <fsckr> digitori, im jealous
[23:26] <smooker_> anyone know how to setup Firefox for my default web browser ? coz right now when i preszs link it opens php editor.. :(
[23:27] <Triskaidekaphobi> adamonline45: 'trunk' is the current development trunk, still beta software
[23:27] <dandelions> Gutsy is useless. All it's done so far is delete 200mb of my files because I opened an archive, broke my sound, and then broke itself altogether.
[23:27] <robdig> dandelions: are you running xgl?
[23:27] <Dr_Willis> it pays to have a collection of live  cd's of differetn disrtos to test things with. :)  DSL, Puppylinux, gparted live cd.. all handy :)
[23:27] <adamorjames> I was wondering. What command would I use to make gnome-terminal "stay on top".
[23:27] <dandelions> xgl?
[23:27] <jrib> adamorjames: right click on the title bar, or do you actually want a command?
[23:28] <fsckr> dandelions, its usually user error :)
[23:28] <choudesh> adamorjames: if you right on the title bar - there is a "always on top"
[23:28] <adamorjames> jrib: a command
[23:28] <nuu> PeterPan_: that range is fine, means snort will listen on 192.168.x.x
[23:28] <digitori> fsckr: nearly as good as a good port or malt whiskey...oh if ubuntu was a drink
[23:28] <magnetron> adamorjames: right click the title bar, choose "stay on top"
[23:28] <Jarhyn> that sudo command is a real bitch if you abuse it :P
[23:28] <jrib> adamorjames: look into wmctrl or devilspie
[23:28] <dandelions> Ordinarily I'd agree with you, but I didn't delete my files, and I reversed the thing I did before Ubuntu wouldn't boot again
[23:28] <Jarhyn> I love that ubuntu has a built-in anti-idiot device
[23:28] <dandelions> So I have no idea what I can actually do
[23:28] <PeterPan_> nuu: what is the meaning of 16?
[23:28] <adamorjames> jrib ok
[23:28] <tomd123> Jarhyn: i agree although you only have to abuse su once and your done :P
[23:29] <digitori> devilspie sounds evil
[23:29] <AdioHyperion> choudesh: im going to try a couple of these tutorials to setup samba
[23:29] <choudesh> AdioHyperion: ok. And yes, that was the reason you couldn't install some codecs
[23:29] <AdioHyperion> choudesh: i like to try to figure stuff out on my own first - i learn more that way
[23:29] <AdioHyperion> choudesh: ok
[23:29] <choudesh> AdioHyperion: understandable.
[23:29] <fsckr> no need for devilspie when you have cf
[23:29] <nuu> PeterPan_: it means that the first 16 bit of the address (ie the first two bytes, ie 192.168) represent the network part of the address
[23:29] <robdig> dandelions: it's a version of x built on open gl (i think)...but i had found a bug where xgl was giving similar problems to what your described...they fixed it by uninstalling xgl
[23:29] <Triskaidekaphobi> adamonline45: think of a tree and branches the finished one is grafted into the stable release and the other tree is still growing, not yet ready for grafting into the stable release.
[23:29] <PeterPan_> nuu:  wont it listen to other internet apps like firefox or and external intruder. thats just my lan numbers......
[23:29] <adamonline45> Triskaidekaphobi: Ahh.  Dang, I'm thinking I should just isntall the 32-bit version and use ndiswrapper. :/  But I had a problem in 32-bit version, I was unable to get ndiswrapper as far installed as I have it now, on the 64-bit install.  Something about ndiswrapper.ko missing.  :( Hmmm...
[23:29] <AdioHyperion> choudesh: i had put ubuntu on a friends computer and those boxes were already checked for him
[23:29] <AdioHyperion> choudesh: no fair
[23:29] <AdioHyperion> choudesh: not*
[23:30] <choudesh> AdioHyperion: heh.
[23:30] <adamonline45> Triskaidekaphobi: Hehheh, I get it 8)
[23:30] <Triskaidekaphobi> adamonline45: that's what MANY people have had to do for their own sanity...
[23:30] <dandelions> I think if it was xgl I'd have had problems before, compiz has been running fine today and beryl's worked since June
[23:30] <AdioHyperion> choudesh: im going to try to do this... ill let you know if i run into any problems
[23:30] <PeterPan_> nuu: i want it to listen to every thing.......
[23:30] <arooni-mobile> everytime i try to use that cool deskbar applet to search my /home directory..... i get no results... its like its not indexing my files....... can someone tell me how to fix?  thanks!
[23:30] <nuu> PeterPan_: then set it to any
[23:30] <Jarhyn> yes, although I happen to know what I'm doing more than most newbies with SUDO.
[23:30] <raulh> can anyone verify if sudo apt-get install fostwire would work?

[23:31] <nuu> PeterPan_: use "any"
[23:31] <JoeThomas> Hi, I'm wondering if it's possible to be able to use xbox live via connecting it to my pc. Like some sort of Internet Connection Sharing?
[23:31] <Dr_Willis> raulh i do not think frostwire is in the repos - so that wont work
[23:31] <Dr_Willis> !frostwire

[23:31] <jrib> adamonline45: devilspie isn't a command but that might be what you want anyway
[23:31] <Jarhyn> though I have to admit I've been trying to figure out how to turn my normal GUI session into a super user level
[23:31] <tomd123> Jarhyn, no one can delete YOUR files but you or root (you)
[23:31] <robdig> dandelions: but i thought you went to gutsy today...and what i found was specific to gutsy
[23:31] <buggeredfstab> jrib: Here is what I am showing on gparted: http://i221.photobucket.com/albums/dd10/voiceovgod/gparted120207.png
[23:31] <adamonline45> Triskaidekaphobi: I'm goin' on a few days, that's for sure.  Sigh.  Oh well, I think I've decided to do a 32-bit install.  Shucks...  i guess it's an _investment_ in sanity, ya gotta spend some to make some :)
[23:31] <bkraptor> does anyone know a "safe" repository from where I can get VMware Player?
[23:31] <dandelions> Though wouldn't I have had problems earlier in the day? it booted a few times fine
[23:31] <Jarhyn> I know this :P but I'm not the only one with root access on this computer, since I'm actually admining it for someone else
[23:31] <adamorjames> ok jrib
[23:32] <bkraptor> I have one, but I think it's broken, cause it says I need to update VMware Player with the same version, over and over
[23:32] <nuu> PeterPan_: in CIDR notation, that'd be "<IP_ADDRESS>/0". But in terms of snort config, you can specify "any" as you can read from the description text
[23:32] <Triskaidekaphobi> adamonline45: so true, keep looking for the madwifi to go stable and then maybe try again...
[23:32] <adamonline45> jrib: I'm sorry, what's devilspie?  I have no soul left if that's what you're asking 8)  I lost it with BSD
[23:32] <Jarhyn> and I'm just hoping that my roommate doesn't decide to go on a SUDO rampage
[23:32] <adamonline45> Triskaidekaphobi: My thoughts exactly
[23:32] <IndyGunFreak> raulh: frostwire has an ubuntu .deb file on their website.... http://www.frostwire.com
[23:33] <s> im having problem with video the player is playing the files very slow and it stops meanwhile
[23:33] <adamonline45> Triskaidekaphobi: Well, thank you for your help!  I appreciate it :)

[23:33] <magnetron> Jarhyn: so? ;)
[23:33] <Jarhyn> make them an administrator
[23:33] <jrib> adamonline45: ubotu sent you a link.  You can write rules to the effect of "every time I open gnome terminal, make it "an top"".  wmctrl is an actual command to make a window "on top".  They're different things.  wmctrl is actually what you asked for
[23:34] <K_Dallas_> Is there a filemanager almost like TotalCommander (ex Windows Commander), thanks
[23:34] <Netham45> Jarhyn, how?
[23:34] <nuu> PeterPan_: yes, that sounds correct :)

[23:34] <Jarhyn> he owns the computer. I'm just borrowing it long-term. long enough term to replace the OS from vista to linux
[23:34] <jrib> adamonline45: erm, never mind, I am just confusing with adamorjames
[23:35] <tomd123> Jarhyn: so you basically deleted *his* vista so you can play with ubuntu for a while?
[23:35] <IndyGunFreak> s:  are you using 7.10?
[23:35] <s> yes
[23:35] <adamonline45> jrib: I was just going to suggest that, but I got stuck reading about it 8)  np!
[23:35] <IndyGunFreak> tomd123: i'd consider that a favor.
[23:35] <Netham45> how do I change a group a user is in?
[23:36] <raulh> umm, i have just installed frostwire via terminal where is it? 0_o thanks in advanced
[23:36] <Jarhyn> no, I deleted HIS vista because it was a flaming pile of crap that crashed every hour or so and struggled to run windows media player
[23:36] <robdig> dandelions: looks like someone else had a similar problem when they ran out of disk space...any chance you're running low?
[23:36] <Jarhyn> he thanked me for it
[23:36] <jrib> Netham45: delgroup and addgroup
[23:36] <tomd123> IndyGunFreak: yes but if that was me and he didn't tell me I would be pissed, unless he didn't delete the vista partition and had a dualboot
[23:36] <jrib> Netham45: or deluser maybe.  The man explains in any case
[23:36] <NoobSauce> I'm trying to get ubuntu to work on my box, I've installed everything, and then it fails to start the X-server. Specifically it gives an error VESA(0): No matching modes, Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration. I've searched online, and it looks like this was a bug report filed with a previous version (I've done a dist-upgrade from FF). I'm out of ideas on how to resolve this issue... Any clues?
[23:36] <Jarhyn> actually I made him PAY me for it, but who's counting?
[23:36] <IndyGunFreak> tomd123: i think if it were me, i'd be pissed either way... my PC, you don';t ahve much right instaling another OS.
[23:36] <fsckr> digitori, its definitely vmware not liking the dual core
[23:36] <dandelions> I've not checked disk space, that's in theory possible. How much space do I probably need on the linux partition?
[23:37] <tomd123> IndyGunFreak:agreed
[23:37] <fsckr> i just installed vmware tools and edited my vm to use 2 cores and its slow as molasses
[23:37] <tomd123> what did you expect
[23:37] <digitori> Jfsckr: hey thats interesting...i must dig around vmwares website etc see whats going on there

[23:38] <raulh> thanks adam!
[23:38] <IndyGunFreak> NoobSauce: i would run this command sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg  and take generic defaults for everything(use Vesa for video, not ati/nvidia), then once you get a GUI, work on fixing everything right.
[23:38] <Jarhyn> bkraptor:xchat
[23:39] <bkraptor> I'll try that
[23:39] <adamonline45> raulh np!  Hope it works for ya 8)

[23:39] <nomasteryoda> adamonline45, also "which frostwire" should find if installed normally
[23:39] <digitori> Mirc on wine...i respect your choice...but omg
[23:39] <IndyGunFreak> NoobSauce: you'll have to do that in safe mode(one of your grub menu entries)
[23:39] <dandelions> I can't tell - I'm in Windows and Windows can't see it properly, it says it's a partition of size 0

[23:40]  * IndyGunFreak prefers xchat-gnome
[23:40] <Jarhyn> bkraptor:  try enabling all your repositories. then you can update the drivers to use 3d ATI functionality. also, check ATI for *nix drivers. they have them
[23:41]  * Pelo thinks IndyGunFreak just sunk to a new level
[23:41] <IndyGunFreak> Pelo: lol i hate xchat... don't know why, it just doesn't feel right, so i use xchat-gnome.. which i like.
[23:41] <jimmygoon> How do I determine my cpu stats- SSE2/SSE from cmd line?

[23:43] <Jarhyn> s: have you checked your video card mfr website for linux drivers?
[23:43] <digitori> IndyGunFreak: oh well freedom of choice....ouch
[23:43] <Pelo> adamonline45, a seperate cd that might be put out with special drivers on it for new hardware if /when it comes out
[23:43] <IndyGunFreak> digitori: very true...

[23:43]  * IndyGunFreak laughs even harder at Jarhyn
[23:43] <digitori> lol
[23:44] <Pelo> adamonline45, I'm pretty sure that's what it is , I read something a while back
[23:44] <s> now when i want to watch something on utube its starts and stops in few secs
[23:44] <jamescarr> hey I need some quick help... I am using tsclient fullscreen, but sometimes want to drop back to my desktop.. how can I do this? f8 doesnt work
[23:44]  * Pelo tells IndyGunFreak  not to laugh at the unfortunate noob
[23:44] <IndyGunFreak> s:  i dont' think a language pack should effect that.
[23:44]  * IndyGunFreak listens to Pelo
[23:44] <digitori> Jarhyn: erm I wonder if NVidia will get left behind now that ATI are open sourced
[23:44] <Pelo> jamescarr, alt+crtl_f7 I thnk
[23:44] <NoobSauce> IndyGunFreak: I've already tried to reconfigure x. I've looked up the refresh rates and other monitor specs on the web, and I've filled those values in. I'm editing the xorg.conf manually, so safe mode is not necessary (?)
[23:44] <Pollman> Does anyone know how to get Compiz-fusion running on a flash drive of some sort?
[23:44] <s> ok
[23:45] <Pelo> Pollman, whut ?
[23:45] <Jordan_U> digitori, I wouldn't call Non Disclosure Agreements "open"
[23:45] <IndyGunFreak> NoobSauce: ok, i would just do everything generic, and see if you can get X to start.
[23:45] <jamescarr> Pelo, nope
[23:45] <Jarhyn> maybe I missed 2 decades here? I remember when it was ATI that provided the best support
[23:45] <Pollman> Compiz-fusion
[23:45] <s> is there any flash player 9
[23:45] <Pelo> jamescarr, my mistake
[23:45] <raulh> im so noobie with ubuntu, and debian D:< i did terminal commands to install frostwire (sudo apt-get install frostwire), then i followed what adminonline told me (sudo updatedb) (locate frostwire) and nothing happening can anyone pm me cause i got a tiny rez and would apriciate a pm thnx
[23:45] <Jarhyn> then again the last time I checked was 1991
[23:45] <IndyGunFreak> NoobSauce: do everything generic, and you will likely get everything to start.
[23:45] <Jordan_U> s Yes
[23:45] <digitori> Jarhyn: Ive only ever signed one...but no
[23:45] <NoobSauce> IndyGunFreak: so I tried that as well, and I couldn't get anything... is this a known issue or something? The bug report that I found indicates that is was resolved?
[23:45] <Pelo> Pollman, didyou install ubuntu on a flash drive ?
[23:45] <adamonline45> Jarhyn: I've always heard if you're gonna run linux, get nvidia
[23:45] <Pollman> Yeah
[23:45] <miles8> Hi, I upgraded to Gusty, and my graphics seem pretty messed up.  Is there a good explanation as to what as going on on the backend for this screens and resolutions utility.  I would rather just bypass it all together have just use my own xorg.conf that I have manually edited
[23:45]  * digitori thinks even that sig wasnt my real signature
[23:46] <Pelo> Pollman,  then compiz should work if the rest of your hardware can handle it
[23:46] <IndyGunFreak> NoobSauce: no, onlyu thing i know, is you're doing something wrong.. what did you choose when it asked for your video device?
[23:46] <Jarhyn> either way I don't have the choice
[23:46] <bruenig> miles8, then just do that
[23:46] <bruenig> miles8, /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[23:46] <Jordan_U> miles8, Then just make your own xorg.conf, or do you not know how?
[23:46] <s> where can i find it
[23:46] <NoobSauce> IndyGunFreak: video device was chosen as vesa since I don't have a video card in here anyways
[23:46] <miles8> But it seems to use that at first, and then it reverts to some different config

[23:46] <justinhj> Anyone have a good program for videoing your desktop?
[23:46] <jamescarr> Pelo, I think maybe you thought I meant switching between consoles? I am using tsclient to connect to a windows box at work, and I want to be able to minimize it/switch out to do stuff on my local desktop

[23:46] <ubotu> jamescarr: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[23:46] <Jordan_U> miles8, That is because your version of the xorg.conf resulted in X not starting
[23:46] <Pelo> miles8, ifyou still have a copy try it out, backup the other one first , might because new drivers are now available and somethig tried to use them
[23:46] <Jarhyn> so I can't really decide what graphics card to plug
[23:47] <IndyGunFreak> NoobSauce: you're doing something jacked up,c uz if you use generic defaults, X should start, barring some other hardware problem

[23:47] <digitori> Jarhyn: ok know where your coming from now
[23:47] <ubuntuisloved> Guys What TV APP supports firewire for ubuntu
[23:47] <IndyGunFreak> raulh: frostwire has an ubuntu.deb file on http://www.frostwire.com
[23:47] <NoobSauce> IndyGunFreak: oh, and the monitor is a Sceptre X7-Agama. The default is not correct, so I set the horizontal refresh rate to the correct value, and still no X...
[23:47] <Pelo> jamescarr, sorry I don,t know
[23:47] <Jordan_U> miles8, If you just want to see X fail you can run "startx" or "xinit"
[23:47] <digitori> Jarhyn: ive used both, my pref is nvidia
[23:47] <IndyGunFreak> NoobSauce: sigh.. you just don't get it... i give up
[23:47] <digitori> just the way it is
[23:47] <miles8> K, I will try that Jordon
[23:47] <NoobSauce> IndyGunFreak: Yeah, I would think that this would work as well, and I don't think it's a hardware failure since the device has previously worked...
