[12:03] <Slart> AdvoWork: samba can only make the share available to clients.. it can't force mount a share on a client computer
[12:06] <SleepingSloth> AdvoWork, can you paraphrase the problem for me please - cant see the original question.. :/
[12:08] <pluffsy> Slart: Aha. thanks a lot!  Channel emergency!

[12:22]  * Nermal is troll proof :)
[12:22] <aricz_> :] *hugs and kisses*
[12:23] <Cyber^queen> but
[12:23] <Bodsda> elkbuntu, cheers
[12:23] <SleepingSloth> Nermal, i seem to have left my troll-repellant at home :)
[12:23] <Nermal> humm - how can you "request they leave" as opposed to outright kicking them ? :
[12:24] <Bodsda> SleepingSloth, damn you,. unreliable im grounding you (Sleeping sloth is grounded)
[12:24] <avis> same thing Nermal except the request is less dramatic
[12:24] <elkbuntu> Nermal, freenode thing. avoids auto-join-on-kick settings
[12:24] <Nermal> elkbuntu, ah - I'll look into that :)
[12:24] <avis> what is a good hdtv tv tuner for ubuntu with composite/s-video hookups to stream from analog tuner ?
[12:24] <SleepingSloth> Bodsda, meh! ;)
[12:25] <Bodsda> avis, not sure,. plz dont repeat so soon,. give it a few mins 5-10 then ask again,.ty
[12:25] <Bodsda> SleepingSloth, If you cant be relied on to bring the repellent we will have to give it to someone else!!!!!
[12:25] <Bodsda> ;)
[12:26] <geer1> hi there, i have a nvidia driver question
[12:26] <Bodsda> shoot
[12:26] <Leechzilla> Hi, anyone knows if Wireless-N has any issues in Ubuntu? I'm about to buy a Wireless-N router
[12:27] <SleepingSloth> Bodsda, you're keen today :p
[12:27] <Nermal> is N even a confirmed standard yet ?
[12:27] <Nermal>  :|
[12:27] <Junky> hello
[12:27] <Junky> I have Realtek ALC888/S/T @ Intel 82801HB ICH8 - High Definition Audio Controller on my gigabyte P965 S3 board but this green "thing" for speakres is broken (works only one chanel, left), but on windows ... when i connect speakrs to any other (else then mic.) it asks me which device i connect and i just say speakrs and everthing works perfectly but how can i do it on (k)ubuntu, plz help, sorry on my bad english
[12:27] <AdvoWork> Slart, SleepingSloth well the problem: i need to share a folder on a windows machine with one on my linux server. so im mounting a share, which works fine, until the windows pc reboots, then it looses the share.
[12:27] <ce_moedz> hy
[12:27] <Leechzilla> Well no, Nermal, but I read a review of the router I'm about to buy and the performance is pretty good they say
[12:27] <Nermal> ah
[12:28] <geer1> thnx. i'm running gutsy and the default (restricted) driver is 100.14.19, however 169.09 has come out. will ubuntu upgrade 'automatically' to this new driver soon, or do we need to go the route with envy and such.
[12:28] <Bodsda> SleepingSloth, im off school, ill,.,. so im bored,.,.lol,.,. just tryin to find someone funny to talk to,.,. is there a joke channel? apart from weebl and bob
[12:28] <Nermal> I suppose it depends on the card you use to connect to the router as opposed to the router itself
[12:28] <frame10_> 44
[12:28] <Slart> AdvoWork: ahh.. now I get it.. I thought it was the other way around.. I would go for a cronjob then.. check if the drive is still mounted.. if it isn't, run that script
[12:28] <frame10_> hgy
[12:28] <SleepingSloth> AdvoWork,  ah, i see. that does muddy the client/server relationship a bit - is there any reason the share cant be on the server?
[12:28] <ce_moedz> fujfipo
[12:28] <Bodsda> geer1, its likely ubuntu will upgrade but the driver will probably have to be tedted first,. so will be a short wait i'd think
[12:29] <Nermal> Junky, you probably have to start the mixer and select which output you want to use
[12:29] <Leechzilla> Nermal, but is there anything to be installed to support the N standard?
[12:29] <SleepingSloth> Bodsda, pass, i'm afraid ;)
[12:29] <Leechzilla> My card is a wireless-n type
[12:29] <Nermal> Leechzilla, it would depend on the card / wifi driver I think
[12:29] <Junky> Nermal: how ?
[12:29] <Leechzilla> Okay
[12:29] <compwiz18> Bodsda, do they update drivers? I was under the impression that once it was released, it was set until the next version?
[12:29] <Bodsda> SleepingSloth, np,.,. this plac can be pretty funny at times,.,. ;~)
[12:30] <avis> Leechzilla, you should google your card to see if wireless is supported under the your ubuntu distro.
[12:30] <geer1> aha. ok. It's just that i tried to find some kind of roadmap on this, but couldn't find any info regarding this. So, what you're saying compwiz18, is that I would ahve to wait for 8.04 to get the latest drivers and if I want them earlier I do it myself? sounds fair. thnx both!
[12:30] <Bodsda> compwiz18, i meant, if Vvidia release a new driver, then we'd probably get it in the restricted but it'd have to be tested first,.,.im not informe at all on this, just gueesin
[12:31] <Bodsda> compwiz18, Vvidia=Nvidia
[12:31] <compwiz18> Bodsda, I'm thinking that since it is a package, and since they have feature freeze before release, then it's set?
[12:31] <nemilar> the problem with the restricted drivers is they sometimes break on new/different kernel versions
[12:31] <nemilar> (among other things)
[12:31] <AdvoWork> SleepingSloth yeah, it has to be on that pc(windows) because theres a certain barcode printer connected to it
[12:31] <compwiz18> all I know is that my ati drivers are still from 8.37, which is about 4 versions ago
[12:31] <AdvoWork> and you cant share the printer
[12:32] <barduck_> how can I can the full infomration about my hard disks from the command line (names, size, raid etc)
[12:32] <Bodsda> compwiz18, ATI have loadsa probs with 7.10 dont they?
[12:33] <cew_imoet> jammaah
[12:33] <geer1> would be nice though if there was some page on ubuntu explaining there exact policy on this. Maybe it already exists, but haven't found it :-)
[12:33] <mattycoze> hey i'm having a problem installing Ubuntu 7.10 i seem to be getting a IO error halfway though the initialising of the installation process... do i have to disable acpi?
[12:33] <Junky> Nermal: how can i do that
[12:33] <L3ttuc3> what is emerald? and is it compatible with compiz fusion in gutsy?
[12:33] <SleepingSloth> AdvoWork, what, and the printer cant see a network share?
[12:33] <Bodsda> geer1, search ubuntu docs for drivers
[12:33] <Nermal> Junky, open the mixer app (usually by double clicking on the speaker icon in panel) and fiddle with it :|
[12:33] <jason> barduck_, sudo fdisk -l
[12:33] <compwiz18> Bodsda, I think the restricted ones work fine, but I've installed the latest ones, and yes, they have their problems but I'm not sure how many of them are Ubuntu related
[12:34] <Bodsda> L3ttuc3, emerald is a theme manager and yes its fine to use it with compiz
[12:34] <AdvoWork> SleepingSloth theres just no way to share the printer etc, so there has to be a shared folder on this client machine, theres other stuff afterwards that happens too, that depends on the share :S
[12:34] <Nermal> make sure things are enabled in Edit -> Preferences in the mixer
[12:34] <mattycoze> hey i'm having a problem installing Ubuntu 7.10 i seem to be getting a IO error halfway though the initialising of the installation process... do i have to disable acpi?
[12:34] <Nermal> and check under the "Switches" tab
[12:34] <barduck> jason: thanks but that just gives me the logic partition
[12:34] <Nermal> mattycoze, you could try booting the install with pci=noacpi or noapic
[12:34] <Bodsda> compwiz18, the main probs i see are people wth ati cards, so i just assumed they were not very well supported,.,. im using Nvidia the king of graphics,.,.mwahahahaha
[12:34] <L3ttuc3> Bodsda what does it exactly change? docs were a bit hazy.
[12:34] <barduck> jason: I need the full sizes and names fo the physical hard disks
[12:34] <Nermal> note: acpi != apic
[12:35] <sky_> why does flash keep breaking T.T
[12:35] <mattycoze> pci=noacpi nice thanx Nermal
[12:35] <Nermal> more info would be useful though :)
[12:35] <Bodsda> L3ttuc3, from what mine did,. i thiink its just the colours on your window bars,.., i think, i may be rong,.,. i dont use it ,.. its pointless,. everything it does ca be done elsewhere, and ore specificallly
[12:35] <compwiz18> Bodsda, I find they work ok once you get the drivers installed, and they aren't that hard to install, so... but I'm not sure how well the ones in the restricted manager work
[12:36] <Bodsda> sky_, s ur flash down again?
[12:36] <L3ttuc3> Bodsda ah i see. ok thanks.
[12:36] <Bodsda> np
[12:36] <SleepingSloth> AdvoWork, if that is the case, then i can't think of anything more sensible that running a cronned script to check and remount as Slart suggests. you could run it a lot more frequently than one a day - it's not going to be a performance issue
[12:36] <sky_> bobsda: yeah...
[12:36] <fragged[away]> L3ttuc3, it is part of compiz-fusion but not compiz
[12:36] <Bodsda> compwiz18, oh well,.,.
[12:36] <rich__> guys how do i browse available printer shares on a network?
[12:36] <sky_> I'm thinking of uninstalling firefox and reinstalling it just to see if it can work again...
[12:36] <sky_> but I'm kinda scared.
[12:36] <compwiz18> yay! I broke my mouse in X.
[12:37] <mattycoze> Nermal, well i remember last time i installed Ubuntu on this laptop i had to run that command
[12:37] <usr13_> exit
[12:37] <sky_> Don't want to ruin things, any more than it already is ruined
[12:37] <Bodsda> sky_, just do     sudo apt-get reinstall firefox
[12:37] <mattycoze> then i switched to SUSe because of a HAL issue
[12:37] <AdvoWork> SleepingSloth ok then cool, one query though, in the cron job, when i do: sudo /etc/init.d/samba stop then start, i take it, it will just wait for each task to execute before remounting?
[12:37] <L3ttuc3> fragged[away] yeah didnt find very specific docs of how it would integrate with gutsy.
[12:37] <mattycoze> ... which was kinda weird...
[12:37] <rich__> im getting this error when doing smbtree -l cli_rpc_pipe_open: cli_nt_create failed on pipe \srvsvc to machine XP1.  Error was NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED
[12:37] <mattycoze> other than that it was running a whole lot better than anything else i've tried on linux
[12:37] <mattycoze> and i desperately need printing to work :p
[12:37] <L3ttuc3> can i post the url to a picture i found on the net, about an applet im trying to find please?
[12:37] <fragged[away]> L3ttuc3, it works fine, if ur graphics card is decent enough and has acceleration, quite frankly I still find it a bit buggy and not really to my taste, do a google on beryl to look at some screenshots
[12:38] <mattycoze> (if you've been following my discussion on SUSE, i've had no such luck getting the cups daemon to work Nermal)
[12:38] <Bodsda> L3ttuc3, go for it
[12:38] <SleepingSloth> /etc/init.d/samba restart?
[12:38] <L3ttuc3> fragged[away] ok will try that.
[12:38] <SleepingSloth> AdvoWork, /etc/init.d/samba restart?
[12:38] <sixpence> Heya, I connected a device to my Computer, a Palm, how do I locate what port it is on in /dev/ (it's connected via USB)
[12:38] <sky_> bobsda: E: Invalid operation reinstall
[12:38] <fragged[away]> sixpence, use 'dmesg | tail'
[12:38] <nemilar> sixpence: should say in the 'dmesg' command
[12:38] <AdvoWork> SleepingSloth oh yeah lol!
[12:38] <_SGrocks_> how can i repartition my hard drive cause how it was done automatically when i set up ubuntu is too small... and there is extra space i want to use
[12:38] <L3ttuc3> what is the little applet that seems to be showing wireless network signal strength in here? http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/17/2007/08/smallish_Compiz-Icon.png
[12:39] <Bodsda> sky_, do it through synaptiic then
[12:39] <realityiswhere> L3ttuc3: nm-applet
[12:39] <AdvoWork> SleepingSloth so do i actually need to check if the mount is there? or just assume it isnt anwyay?
[12:39] <sky_> reinstalled, same problem still
[12:39] <gebura> hi guy
[12:39] <L3ttuc3> realityiswhere eh? my nm-applet is just two little computers, completely static. does not show anything else.
[12:39] <sixpence> fragged[away]: http://pastebin.ca/893753
[12:39] <Bodsda> L3ttuc3, you mean the scaling blue bars? thats standard
[12:39] <sixpence> fragged[away]: That's what I get.
[12:39] <fragged[away]> !flash
[12:39] <ubotu> To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash (for !Dapper and !Edgy, a recent version is available in !backports) - See also !Restricted and !Gnash - The Flash package is currently BROKEN, see « /msg ubotu FlashIssues »
[12:39] <realityiswhere> L3ttuc3: Are you connected on a wireless network?
[12:39] <gebura> i have a problem / bugs on ubuntu gusty , with / from an usb drive
[12:40] <gebura> mount and df don't show any / partition !
[12:40] <SleepingSloth> AdvoWork, well, you dont *need* to check, no - but it would be more efficient to check first
[12:40] <Bodsda> sky_, if youve reinstalled firefox, you may have to einstall that flash package again
[12:40] <L3ttuc3> realityiswhere yes i am, im connected to an atheros card but i had to use ndiswrapper.
[12:40] <sky_> bobsda: okay lemme try
[12:40] <L3ttuc3> although ubuntu recognises the device, the ath module does not work well with that particular chipset.
[12:40] <AdvoWork> SleepingSloth but how would you do that check within a cronjob? :S
[12:40] <Bodsda> sky_, bobsda,..,.lol,.,.i like it
[12:41] <L3ttuc3> Bodsda i've only ever had the two little static monitors of network manager.
[12:41] <fragged[away]> sixpence, that means its identified that there is in fact a device there but not identified it as a phripheral, it is not the same as a flash drive so it wont get mounted, perhaps some research reguarding your palm and linux
[12:41] <sky_> oh wait, its bodsda
[12:41] <realityiswhere> L3ttuc3: Maybe it's ndiswrappers fault, cause I've always had the wireless icon.
[12:41] <sky_> no wonder autocomplete wasn't working!
[12:41] <sixpence> fragged[away]: :-| I see.
[12:41] <Bodsda> L3ttuc3, when im connected wifi i get thoude bars,..,. but im cabled atm so i cant help im afraid
[12:41] <Bodsda> sky_, yer,.,. dw,.,.;~~))
[12:41] <L3ttuc3> realityiswhere also, i've had to manually set up the network. at any rate, in the drop down menu listing available networks, i do get signal strength.
[12:42] <L3ttuc3> strange.
[12:42] <fragged[away]> sixpence, its just an uncommon type of hardware, too uncommon to bother with basic configuration, somebody; somewhere will have had it working
[12:42] <sky_> crap, still broken
[12:42] <SleepingSloth> AdvoWork, you would need to write a shell script to do it - and remount if necessary. i'm not the best person to ask, i haven't written bash scripts for years..
[12:42] <sixpence> fragged[away]: Alright.
[12:42] <Bodsda> sky_, which version fo firefo r u using?
[12:42] <realityiswhere> L3ttuc3: Ah see, manually doing it would make it be the computers too. I've got mine on roaming and it shows the wireless icons.
[12:42] <rich__> guys i cant see my windows printer share from ubuntu
[12:42] <rich__> is that correct?
[12:42] <fragged[away]> sky_ /msg ubotu FlashIssues
[12:42] <sky_> <IP_ADDRESS>
[12:43]  * Bodsda apologizes for his bad spelling, and blames it on his broken keyboard (Which he spilled coffee on)
[12:43] <L3ttuc3> sky_? flash? i managed to make mine work by downloading a 73MB archive from adobe's developper site containing previous versions of the flash 9 player. one before 115 seems to work fine. that seems to be the file that the debconf file wants installed.
[12:43] <Bodsda> sky_, amd 64?
[12:43] <sky_> yeah
[12:43] <sky_> fragged[away]: trying the workarounds atm
[12:43] <L3ttuc3> realityiswhere hmm... if i'd not done it manually, would i have had to enter the wep key everytime?
[12:43] <fragged[away]> Bodsda, my G15 has a dead something, and instead of having user controlled lighting the LED's just turn on and off on there own... I win :D
[12:43] <realityiswhere> L3ttuc3: No, it saves it in the keyring.
[12:44] <L3ttuc3> realityiswhere oh... is there a way to move to roaming with the already saved wep key from my manual config?
[12:44] <sky_> Bodsda: amd64
[12:44] <Bodsda> fragged[away], u dont win, if i press ctrl+alt it sends me computer into an epileptic fit for exactly 3.32 minuts ,. then returns to normal
[12:44] <themos> hello
[12:44] <Bodsda> sky_, graphics card?
[12:45] <sky_> nvidia gf6600
[12:45] <themos> ubuntu has kde and gnome? or i have to get kde myself?
[12:45] <realityiswhere> L3ttuc3: Not sure, I've always just retyped it cause I have it memorized hehe.
[12:45] <Bodsda> sky_, got restricted drivers working?
[12:45] <compwiz18> TheMafia, kubuntu has kde, ubuntu has gnome
[12:45] <sky_> yep
[12:45] <compwiz18> themos,, kubuntu has kde, ubuntu has gnome
[12:45] <Bodsda> themos, can have both/either ,.,. ubuntu is standard with gnome,. kubuntu has kde
[12:45] <avis> themos, you can sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop if you want or download and install kubuntu
[12:46] <compwiz18> !kubuntu
[12:46] <ubotu> Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment, instead of Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support: #kubuntu - See also !KDE
[12:46] <L3ttuc3> realityiswhere my wifi router has to have me physically press a button, when it's detecting connections... which adds to the tediousness. thanks for the heads up.
[12:46] <themos> ok thanks for clearing that up
[12:46] <nomasteryoda> L3ttuc3, just a suggestion... there is a new kid on the block for managing your wireless and it's called wicd ... but i'll let you google it ... its on sourceforge and works better for roaming (in my humble opinion)... but if you don't want to change the default network-manager, ignore this comment
[12:46] <fragged[away]> Bodsda, I presume thats sarcasm, but if not I'd recommend getting a new keyboard, they has the power to take out motherboards... In fact plugging a PS/2 in while computer is on can even do that, moreso on old computers, but i found out the hard/fun way - seeing as it wasnt my computer
[12:47] <sky_> guys, should I use apt-get autoremove?
[12:47] <fragged[away]> Theres nothing better than iwtool eth1 list IMO :D
[12:47] <nomasteryoda> sky_, it will clean up from pkgs that are not needed
[12:47] <sky_> theres no problems from using it, right?
[12:47] <nomasteryoda> sky_, right
[12:47] <Bodsda> fragged[away], my screen goes black,.,. then fills with ascii charcters then flash's violently for 3 minutes , then returns to normal,. and i will get a new keyboard when i get £40,.,.;~)
[12:48] <AdvoWork> out of the choices, LPI course, or the ubuntu version, what would you do?
[12:48] <nomasteryoda> LPI for universal coverage of Linux...
[12:48] <RantingHuman> test
[12:48] <nomasteryoda> unless you want a focus.... on ubuntu
[12:49] <Bodsda> RantingHuman, True
[12:49] <nomasteryoda> RantingHuman, we got your test
[12:49] <fragged[away]> focusing on one distro is probbably silly, reguardless of the distro
[12:49] <RantingHuman> just checking :)
[12:49] <Bodsda> RantingHuman, False
[12:49] <fragged[away]> unless its RHEL and you want to work on callcentres!
[12:49] <Bodsda> ;
[12:49] <AdvoWork> well lpi would prettymuch cover a lot of aspects todo with ubuntu anyway wouldnt it?
[12:49] <nomasteryoda> fragged[away], you pulled the letters from under my fingers
[12:50] <fragged[away]> The basis of linux is pretty much universal though, so yes
[12:50] <nomasteryoda> AdvoWork, yes
[12:50] <Bodsda> anyone here use,.,. Ultimate Edition                   ??
[12:50] <rich__> im receiving this error when attempting to view smb shares
[12:50] <rich__> cli_rpc_pipe_open: cli_nt_create failed on pipe
[12:50] <enzo_5> i'd like to download picasa, how can i do ? in fact, i don't find the .deb package on picasa.com
[12:50] <fragged[away]> AdvoWork, I've used Ubuntu, Gentoo and Slackware, and the biggest difference is the package manager, followed by smaller stuff such as initscript etc
[12:50] <SuperLag> AdvoWork: I'd get a college degree, and forget about certification.
[12:50] <nomasteryoda> enzo_5, that pkg is there on the picasa google pages
[12:51] <enzo_5> you have the link nomasteryoda?
[12:51] <nomasteryoda> it works very well enzo_5 hang on
[12:51] <SuperLag> AdvoWork: certifications can expire. Degrees do not.
[12:51] <nemilar> enzo_5: there's a picasa package in repos
[12:51] <webpower> http://rafb.net/p/5BjRKV95.html
[12:51] <nemilar> enzo: apt-get install picasa
[12:51] <fragged[away]> No offence to SuperLag but I'd get advice from somebody in the industry rather than a few geeks on #gentoo late at night, I've been told certs are the only way to go, and the same with Uni
[12:51] <L3ttuc3> now that i have emerald on, is there a way to disable it to go to the usual metacity window borders?
[12:51] <webpower> i get this problem creating initrd
[12:51] <L3ttuc3> without having to purge or uninstall it i mean?
[12:51] <webpower> can you help me?
[12:52] <enzo> no i don't have in my repo nemilar, what are your sources ?
[12:52] <Bodsda> L3ttuc3, check in emerald settings?
[12:52] <Webu> Does http://www.truecrypt.org/ work for you?
[12:52] <nomasteryoda> enzo, http://picasa.google.com/linux/
[12:52] <enzo> ah ok nomasteryoda
[12:52] <L3ttuc3> Bodsda that's what's scaring me. there is nothing there im seeing that allows me to go back :/ heh.
[12:52] <fragged[away]> L3ttuc3, I'm not really familiar with metacity, but under xubuntu I kill off compiz-fusion, then just start xfwm4 which is the window manager, otherwise a good restart of X wont hurt (afaik compiz is not added to default wm/de)
[12:52] <nomasteryoda> dpkg -i pkg.deb
[12:52] <enzo> thanks nomasteryoda
[12:52] <nomasteryoda> np
[12:53] <L3ttuc3> fragged[away] a good restart restarted with emerald! :D didn't expect that.
[12:53] <enzo> you have the 2.7 beta installed nomasteryoda?
[12:53] <fragged[away]> mhm
[12:53] <SleepingSloth> SuperLag, they both become irrelevant eventually anyway - do you have a college degree?
[12:53] <Bodsda> L3ttuc3, i just checked and it seems ive deleted my emerald,.,. i find it utterly useless,. and im spring cleaning my ubuntu atm
[12:53] <nomasteryoda> enzo, i use that beta
[12:53] <AutoMatriX> hi folks
[12:53] <nomasteryoda> works very well
[12:53] <enzo> ok
[12:53] <L3ttuc3> 'gnome-compiz-preferences' does not seem to even come up with a gui either... i was thinkin maybe that would help.
[12:53] <sky_> hmm
[12:53] <sky_> seems that its stil broken
[12:54] <sky_> *sigh*
[12:54] <L3ttuc3> Bodsda would purging emerald break my configurations do you think?
[12:54] <nomasteryoda> it is a custom installation of Wine... all to itself and does not change your base wine installation
[12:54] <fragged[away]> L3ttuc3, figure out what the binary for the gnome wm is, kill compiz-fusion and start it
[12:54] <nomasteryoda> gnome one would be metacity
[12:54] <Bodsda> L3ttuc3, it would break anything you've set using emerald itself,.,. but otherwise no,. and if it did , just reinstall it
[12:54] <nemilar> enzo: Section: non-free/otherosfs
[12:54] <L3ttuc3> Bodsda hmm... i'll bear that in mind. thanks.
[12:55] <Bodsda> delete
[12:55] <nemilar> enzo: know it's late, sorry
[12:55] <AdvoWork> SuperLag ive already got a degree ;)
[12:55] <AdvoWork> this is just free training provided by my employer

[12:55] <mrdejong> can some one help me with my bluethooth
[12:55] <nemilar> 2.2.2820-5 enzo
[12:55] <Bodsda> !anyone | mrdejong
[12:55] <ubotu> mrdejong: 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?
[12:55] <themos> where can i see the packages that are included on the CD and DVD images?
[12:55] <mrdejong> on my laptop Acer Travelmate 5310
[12:56] <enzo> ok nemilar, i need 2.7 to upload to my picasa web directory
[12:56] <fragged[away]> mhm my mum broke my earphones :O
[12:56] <nemilar> enzo: is that on the google site?
[12:56] <mrdejong> i need a firmware or something like that
[12:56] <fragged[away]> I cant sleep, give up and decide to watch a movie, and find that she broke my earphones
[12:56] <fragged[away]> :@
[12:56] <Bodsda> mrdejong, if you give a complete question, including errors, patebinned of course,. then people can help you,.,. and please try and keep it in one message
[12:56] <nemilar> fragged[away]: hey man, my mom once stuck a magnet on top of my brand new video card
[12:56] <enzo> yes nemilar
[12:57] <compwiz18> themos, just a guess, the ones in the package manager that have a little ubuntu symbol next to them are (for the most part) included on the cd
[12:57] <nemilar> enzo: cool, good to know
[12:57] <enzo> http://picasa.google.com/linux/download.html nemilar
[12:57] <Bodsda> nemilar, omg,.,. unlucky
[12:57] <nemilar> Bodsda: I just returned it, said it was DOA
[12:57] <themos> i don't have ubuntu/kubuntu
[12:57] <compwiz18> ah
[12:57] <Bodsda> nemilar, DOA???
[12:57] <themos> i want to see the list of included packages
[12:57] <SleepingSloth> dead on arrival
[12:57] <nemilar> Bodsda: Dead On Arrival
[12:58] <AdvoWork> when writing a shell script, do i need to save it as .sh?
[12:58] <nemilar> AdvoWork: no, but it's good form
[12:58] <compwiz18> AdvoWork, no, but it's a good idea
[12:58] <nemilar> AdvoWork: Linux doesn't care about file extensions
[12:58] <AdvoWork> nemilar so just vim whatever.sh  then write it, then save it?
[12:58] <Bodsda> nemilar, ah, got ya,.,. that must have annoyed u a bit though,.,. id of been well ...... off
[12:58] <nemilar> AdvoWork: but naming it .sh will let everyone know that it's a shell script
[12:58] <DoYouKnow> AdvoWork, no, you can just run "sh script.sh"
[12:58] <nemilar> Bodsda: haha yeah I was pissed
[12:58] <AdvoWork> yeah, ok!  what about where to put it/save it?
[12:58] <DoYouKnow> or "sh script"
[12:59] <DoYouKnow> rather
[12:59] <Bodsda> nemilar, women!!! cant do anything right,.,.lol,.,.im jokin  ,.,.;))
[12:59] <SleepingSloth> nemilar, at least it didnt cost you $$ though, just time
[12:59] <Pici> !offtopic
[12:59] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[12:59] <nemilar> SleepingSloth: yeah, that's true... and I think probably some sleep, most likely
[12:59] <Bodsda> nemilar, why sleep?
[12:59] <nemilar> this is OT
[12:59] <DoYouKnow> you can even execute it directly
[12:59] <Bodsda> sry
[13:00] <AdvoWork> DoYouKnow so you mean I can just type sh whatever  to make it? or ? sorry for lack of understanding
[13:00] <Arelis> Is there some sort of file manager for Ubuntu that has the tagging mechanism? I mean, not organised in folders, but in tags?
[13:01] <DoYouKnow> AdvoWork, yeah, but you can also make it +x (executable) and run it directly
[13:01] <compwiz18> AdvoWork, you can run sh name-of-script or ./name-of-script if you're in the same directory as it
[13:01] <SleepingSloth> nemilar, have you ever managed to get a dual graphics card xserver? i have a pci nvidia graphics card, and i'm considering adding it to my exiting pcie card so i can add a third monitor. doable?
[13:01] <nemilar> AdvoWork: you can execute it by either "sh script.sh", or by making it executable (chmod +x script.sh) and then running it (./script.sh)
[13:01] <DoYouKnow> AdvoWork, it doesn't need to be +x if you run "sh script"
[13:01] <Bodsda> AdvoWork, you can un a script by typing just its name,. it doesnt have to have a path aslong as its saved in a path listed in $PATH
[13:01] <wg12345> test
[13:01] <Bodsda> wg12345, True
[13:01] <nemilar> SleepingSloth: yeah, I had an ATI Radeon + Onboard Intel setup at one time, worked fine/great
[13:01] <AutoMatriX> wg12345, test succeeded
[13:02] <nemilar> SleepingSloth: the new autoconfig for Xorg.conf files doesn't support more than two monitors... mine was done back when there was /no/ decent autoconfig, so I had to write my xorg entirely by hand
[13:02] <SleepingSloth> nemilar, how about desktop candy?
[13:02] <youlin>  hello : has any one used desktop sharing to a machine behind a firewall?
[13:02] <nemilar> SleepingSloth: lol with all that power, I'm sure you'll be fine
[13:02] <nemilar> SleepingSloth: I had compiz running for a while, cube on each monitor
[13:02] <nemilar> SleepingSloth: now I just use a TV as my second monitor and I only use it when I'm playing something on it
[13:03] <AdvoWork> and within the script, if i want to normally do: sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart  id do:  .sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart instead?
[13:03] <Bodsda> nemilar, dont make me !enter you,.,.;)
[13:04] <SleepingSloth> nemilar, yeah - what i would like to do, is have a dedicated 3d accelerated monitor which is not impeded by candy - so i dont have problems with games. i still have soft crashes sometimes when i maximise games- they just dont handle 2 monitors well, sometimes crashing, sometimes maximising to both, etc etc... and performance is hit by having to draw the other monitor on the same gfx card...
[13:04] <nemilar> Bodsda: haha, I didn't realize I was doing that... I just assumed people were typing a bunch of lines while I was typing, without looking at the screen
[13:05] <nemilar> youlin: desktop sharing?
[13:05] <nemilar> SleepingSloth: true... I never play games anymore, so i donno about that
[13:05] <Bodsda> nemilar, yer, i do i sometimes,.,. maybe instead of !enter 'ing people we should shout at people for not talking ,.,.maybe !TALK!    ,.,.good/bad   wot do you think?
[13:06] <nemilar> SleepingSloth: I spent about 15 minutes trying to get The Sims running about a week ago, and just gave up
[13:06] <bash0r> hello
[13:06] <nemilar> Bodsda: there's always people lingering with unanswered questions
[13:06] <nemilar> hi
[13:06] <bash0r> i have problem running ubuntu 7 livecd, gives me error "buffer I/O error on device SR0"
[13:06] <nemilar> that doesn't sound good
[13:06] <Bodsda> nemilar, you realise it takes more then 15 mins to install sims on winbugs,.,. u give up to easy,.,.lol
[13:07] <bash0r> google says this is my cd drive, but its ok in windows
[13:07] <SleepingSloth> nemilar, the sims?! i'd rather watch crap accumulating in my keyboard
[13:07] <nemilar> haha, yeah I wasn't that motivated to get it to work
[13:07] <bash0r> can i fix this problem if i run ubuntu in virtuall machine?
[13:07] <amer> hi , I installed libnet-ssh-perl-perl package , but i sill have this error http://pastie.caboo.se/148198 plase any help
[13:07] <nemilar> bash0r: did you check that the CD doesn't have any errors?
[13:07] <bash0r> or install it to hdd?
[13:07] <bash0r> yeah
[13:07] <bash0r> no errors
[13:07] <knud> Hi - a question: Is the new Intel T8300 supported in Ubuntu?
[13:08] <pale-yafa> hi, I am trying to login to my phppgadmin, and I get "login desabled for security reasons"
[13:08] <nemilar> bash0r: not sure why it's giving that error, pretty strange.  I'm sure it'd work in VM, but that's not really ideal
[13:08] <amer>  hi , I installed libnet-ssh-perl-perl package , but i still  have this error http://pastie.caboo.se/148198, plase any help.
[13:08] <pale-yafa> *disallowed
[13:08] <nemilar> pale-yafa: as root?
[13:09] <pale-yafa> nemilar: I created a new user using pgadmin, and I am trying to login with it
[13:10] <nemilar> pale-yafa: never tried that before... can you login with a standard mysql account?
[13:10] <pale-yafa> nemilar: its postgres not mysql
[13:11] <nemilar> oh, lol, well in that case I have no clue..sorry pale-yafa
[13:11] <pale-yafa> nemilar: its ok, figured it out, looks like the user should not inherit the postgres role
[13:11] <AdvoWork> how do you run a cronjob say every day at 9am?
[13:11] <jrib> !cron > advowork (read the private message from ubotu)
[13:12] <AdvoWork> like: 0 9 * * * /home/mountscript.sh
[13:12] <jrib> AdvoWork: yes
[13:12] <mrdejong> i dont got errors
[13:12] <mrdejong> its the same as my wlan i needed a plugin/firmware
[13:12] <mrdejong> and install that and then its working :)
[13:12] <jrib> amer: I don't know anything about perl but notice your error is looking for Net/SSH/Perl.pm and the package you mentioned installs Net/SSH.pm
[13:13] <mrdejong> but if there isn't any thing i can live with it. On windows vista nothing was working and on ubuntu there works more
[13:13] <jrib> !enter | mrdejong
[13:13] <ubotu> mrdejong: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[13:13] <paule118> xxxxxxxxxx
[13:13] <paule118> xxxxxxxxxxx
[13:13] <paule118> xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
[13:13] <AdvoWork> one more query I hope, now that ive set my cronjob, can i run through it to see if it causes errors on execution?
[13:13] <paule118> xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
[13:13] <nemilar> :)
[13:13] <nemilar> AdvoWork: just run the script, see what happens
[13:13] <aniket> I am tryin to install ubuntu in my pc but the gnome partition manager shows the whole disk as unallocated but i already have windows installed in my disk
[13:14] <nemilar> aniket: do you have two disks?
[13:14] <jrib> AdvoWork: sure, why not?
[13:14] <AdvoWork> nemilar yeah that works, so assume the other should
[13:14] <aniket> nemilar: only one
[13:14] <nemilar> aniket: well that's not good then
[13:14] <nemilar> aniket: are you in the liveCD now?
[13:14] <aniket> nemilar: yes
[13:14] <sybariten> i know its possible to somehow get a listing of all installed "apt" packages. But that includes everything installed by the system too, i suspect. Would it be possible to get some kind of list of everything that _I_ have installed via 'sudo apt-get install blahblah' ?
[13:15] <nemilar> aniket: open up a terminal and run 'fdisk -l'
[13:15] <sybariten> in other words, things that are manually and explicitly installed by me
[13:15] <enzo> i have a webcam that works only with v4l2, it works with kopete, but on ekiga, there's no v4l2 driver, should i install something to force ekiga to use v4l2 ?
[13:15] <nemilar> aniket: does it show any partitions on your drive?
[13:16] <j^> hi does anyone know if a way to identify an external hard disk that can be connected via usb or fw?
[13:16] <aniket> nemilar: yes it is showling
[13:16] <nemilar> aniket: it's an NTFS partition?  of the right size, etc?
[13:17] <nemilar> you know, gparted is really a POS program.  It has so many bugs, and it's such a vital program.   I know how to install the xfree86 server but how do I pick which one runs? thanks.
[13:20] <aniket> nemilar: with fdisk it is showinb
[13:20] <nemilar> OH man! Class just started, I"m late
[13:20] <nemilar> aniket: sorry I gotta bounce
[13:20] <nemilar> peace all
[13:21] <aniket> nemilar: i am not also able to insstall ubuntu using manual disk partition
[13:22] <aniket> nemilar: see ya

[13:35] <gaelik> AHHHHH!!!!!
[13:35] <sky_> odd...
[13:35] <sky_> never encountered that before...
[13:35] <tinman> Is there a way to list all users (not only logged in) on a computer? (other then cat /etc/passwd/ or ls /home/) thought of these already :]
[13:36] <gaelik> i wasen't conectec when i did the Mr gibbons intalation!!!!!

[13:37] <sky_> aniket: you mean only the hd? no partitions created yet? is it supposed to be a blank/empty/new hdd?
[13:37] <reburn> tinman: check /etc/nsswitch.conf your system might use nis/yp or somthing similar
[13:37] <gaelik> ok, sorry ikonia....
[13:38] <leandro> hi everyone..
[13:38] <Zou1> after a bad backup recovery , every permission on files changed to root:root , is there any package to set right /var /etc permission on files and directories ?
[13:38] <L3ttuc3> when i try adding (after proper gksu) users to my system, it shows in the 'user settings' screen. however, when i close it and open it again, the new user has already disappeard.
[13:38] <tzd> is it possible to "backup" everything in ubuntu and then create a bigger partition and move all the backed up stuff onto that partition? My linux partition is way too small and i want to make it bigger please
[13:38] <aniket> sky_:  it is not a blank hd. i have already made the partitions from windows
[13:38] <wers> where can I get lotus symphony? :D
[13:38] <ikonia> L3ttuc3: you don't need to use gksudo - just open the user manager gui from the menu in gnome
[13:38] <wers> it's not in the repos, right?
[13:39] <gaelik> i know...but maybe now its only searching  i th cd as you sayd.
[13:39] <ikonia> tzd: no problem, just need to re-install grub potentially
[13:39] <levander> Is there anyway to set it up so that when you left click on the Desktop, you get a menu list of currently running application windows?  Like a task selector that you get when you hit Alt-Tab, only you get it when you left click on the desktop.
[13:39] <gaelik> will check the sources.
[13:39] <dgjones> !backup | tzd
[13:39] <ubotu> tzd: There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning
[13:39] <L3ttuc3> ikonia which is what i did, gksu, then tried with gksudo. same behaviour.
[13:39] <gaelik> thanks
[13:39] <sky_> aniket: I dunno then...
[13:39] <tzd> thx ikonia and dgjones
[13:39] <ikonia> L3ttuc3: you don't need to type gksudo
[13:39] <L3ttuc3> when i tried adding the user with useradd, it said it was already there. when i tried logging in with the user, it didn't authenticate.
[13:39] <aniket> Amaranth: u there?

[13:45] <jonaskoelker> hello all, I have a question
[13:45] <WiseCyan> well, I was using windows xp before, and now I tried to install linux ubuntu 7.10 using a live disk
[13:45] <Pici> !ask | jonaskoelker
[13:45] <jonaskoelker> with linux 2.6.22-14, I get bad UDP checksums
[13:45] <ubotu> jonaskoelker: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[13:45] <ikonia> aniket: is there any unallocated space ?
[13:45] <L3ttuc3> ikonia it didnt create the user because a group already existed with that name for some reason... i think it also wanted to create a new group of that name.
[13:45] <jonaskoelker> Pici: yeah yeah, if I do then people don't answer
[13:45] <WiseCyan> but my harddisk doesnt show up
[13:45] <lilg111111> !hda

[13:45] <jonaskoelker> is anyone else seeing bad UDP checksums
[13:45] <noneo> abhi__: loop? have you loop in /etc/fstab?
[13:46] <ikonia> aniket: so it shows no disks ?
[13:46] <L3ttuc3> ikonia yes... hence i think it didnt really want me to create a user for which a group had already been made (at install time, i surmise).
[13:46] <abhi__> noneo: do i? is that BAD? is my system borked?!?!?! :(
[13:46] <ikonia> L3ttuc3 that seems reasonable
[13:46] <ali1234> jonaskoelker: doubt most people would see them unless they went looking.. where are you seeing them?
[13:47] <sybariten> 'dpkg --get-selections' gives me quite a long alphabetical list, and 'apt-cache pkgnames' spits out around sixty megabytes of pure text... is there any way i can have apt tell me which packages has been installed by "me"? Or have the list in a time sorted or logged way?
[13:47] <L3ttuc3> ikonia i only just noticed when i tried creating a completely different user. thanks anyway. :)
[13:47] <jonaskoelker> ali1234: wireshark
[13:48] <noneo> abhi__: as I know loop is useful if you mount ISO file. I don't know any other purpose of this mount option in everyday life :-)

[13:49] <Pici> sybariten: Have you tried looking through aptitude?
[13:49] <sybariten> Pici: no, but i just recently found a forum post that said aptitude could maybe do this.

[13:55] <Epicenter> if I'm running Xubuntu but I want to install the Gnome desktop environment how would I do it?
[13:55] <ali1234> nephlim: sparse image, as in a sparse file? dont think that would work if you encrypted it, since it would no longer be mostly zeros
[13:55] <WiseCyan> Hey guys, could anyone help me with this problem? I want to switch from using WinXP  to Ubuntu 7.10. Right now, I am trying to install it using the Live CD, but the system does not show my hard disk, so I cannot convert the file system from ntfs to ext3
[13:56] <nephlim> ali1234, i'm going by what i did on my mac. make an ecrypted sparesimage, add media, then unmount

[13:59] <docmur> How do I query Apt to tell me what package it will install if I apt-get
[14:00] <wers> is gwget the best gui gtk-based wget?
[14:00] <Palintheus> Epicenter: install the xubuntu-desktop package, then when you login you can select xfce or gnome under options
[14:00] <rich__> rich:
[14:00] <coolbhavi> Hello.. I have a problem similar to https://answers.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-power-manager/+question/24014
[14:00] <Palintheus> Epicenter: wait...ubuntu-desktop since you are running xubuntu
[14:00] <coolbhavi> any info?
[14:01] <ali1234> nephlim: ok, i'm just not clear about what it means by "sparse" - eg if you make the encrypted sparse image 10mb, does it use 10mb of disk space, even when empty?
[14:01] <nephlim> ali1234, i think so
[14:02] <nephlim> ali1234, it should act like a virtual drive that you have to mount to access
[14:02] <aniket1> http://i25.tinypic.com/2igfz8i.png
[14:02] <Palintheus> Epicenter: or just the gnome-core package
[14:02] <rich__> any ideas how i view all shared resources on a network from ubuntu?
[14:02] <Webu> docmur, adding an "-s" option performs ordering simulation, you might try that out.
[14:02] <nephlim> ali1234, and prompts for password to mount, a pass that's not the users pass for ownership, you know? it's "own" pass
[14:02] <Epicenter> What's the difference between Xubuntu-desktop and Ubuntu-desktop?
[14:03] <Webu> docmur, usually even doing an "apt-get" it'll ask before installing anything and you can see what'll be installed.
[14:03] <aniket1> somebody help me install ubjntu
[14:03] <jason> docmur, the format of that would be sudo apt-get -s install package, and it will list what operations would be performed
[14:03] <ali1234> nephlim: what you need is just an encrypted disk image, if you google without the word "sparse" you should find a lot of howtos for linux...

[14:04] <Chamwork-> hi guys, I have a quick question that hopefully will be easy.  On my windows machine I use pdfcreator to print to a virtual printer and print to TIFF (not pdf), then I have it automatically opening up that TIFF with my default program.  Does anyone know of any virtual printers like that for Ubuntu?   In component main, is optional. Version 0.3.3-2ubuntu6.1 (gutsy), package size 334 kB, installed size 1908 kB
[14:04] <L3ttuc3> periodically, when i log on, my 'locked' gnome applets will have rearranged themselves, namely the user, trash, notification area... why is that, and how can i stop it doing that?
[14:05] <aniac> I started a fedora crashed pc with a ubuntu 7.10 cd and want to get some files from there but don't know which is the hd in order to mount it...
[14:05] <Pici> docmur: No. KDE4 is not in the Gutsy repos.
[14:05] <aniac> any idea?
[14:05] <jonaskoelker> hm, so all my installed kernels (2.6.20-15, 2.6.20-16, 2.6.22-14) give a wrong UDP checksum;  what can I do to fix this?
[14:05] <aniket1> i am not able to install ubuntu using manual gnome partition editor
[14:05] <aniket1> any76 idea
[14:05] <Chamwork-> aniac, i think there's a way to view the partition table
[14:05] <aniket1> any idea
[14:05] <sam_> HI...I have a mybook ext hard drive and its saying i dont have permission to access it and i went into the properties and changed the access but it just goes back when i try to save it. anyideas?
[14:05] <Chousuke> jonaskoelker: hmm, your network gear might be broken
[14:05] <jonaskoelker> I've gotten the impression that the kernel might offload computation of udp checksums to the NIC.  Is there a way to test if this is true?  Is there a way to disable offloading?  What are they?
[14:06] <hedenberg> Anyone familiar with "dstat" and know what the value "csw" represents?
[14:06] <jrib> sam_: what filesystem?
[14:06] <aniac> Chamwork how can I do that?
[14:06] <redmonkey> aniac: type fdisk -l to get a list of all available partitions
[14:06] <Palintheus> Epicenter: xubuntu-desktop is what you have if you are running xubuntu, it includes everything for Xubuntu, thunar, mousepad, all the normal apps. where as ubuntu-desktop includes everything for ubuntu, nautilus, gedit, OOo, Gimp, all the normal ubuntu apps. gnome-core only includes the essential gnome items
[14:06] <jason> docmur, http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/install-kde-4.html lists step involved in installing kde4
[14:06] <sam_> ?
[14:06] <Webu> docmur, yes it'll do that, but before doing it i'd suggest to read this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE?highlight=%28kde%29
[14:06] <aniket1> Chamwork-: i cannot see any partition during installation
[14:06] <Chamwork-> i don't know, google it, or look at redmonkey's answer
[14:06] <sam_> its just called my book

[14:06] <ubotu> sam_: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :)
[14:07] <ali1234> is it possible to have both kde and gnome installed, without all the kde icons polluting the gnome menu, and vice versa?
[14:07] <jrib> sam_: do you know if it is ntfs, fat32, ext3, or something else?
[14:07] <Palintheus> Epicenter: http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/metapackages/xubuntu-desktop

[14:07] <Chamwork-> aniket1, if you can't see partitions during install then sounds like your card isn't supported? that's just wierd cause 99% of configs are
[14:08] <redmonkey> aniac: try it with sudo fdisk -l
[14:08] <hedenberg> Anyone familiar with the sysmonitor "dstat" and know what the value "csw" represents?
[14:08] <aniket1> Chamwork-: it is supported . i installed gutsy earlier
[14:08] <Chamwork-> wierd then
[14:09] <redmonkey> aniac: you have to be root to see the partition table
[14:09] <aniac> redmonkey ok, it's sda1 and sda2 . the last is Linux LVM
[14:10] <lordleemo> 3
[14:11] <Chamwork-> redmonkey, fdisk won't complain that it needs root access?  you'd think it would say something when run as a normal user :)
[14:12] <hedenberg> Heya. Anyone familiar with the sysmonitor "dstat". Im trying to figure out what the column "csw" represents. Any suggestions?
[14:12] <void^> hedenberg: context switches
[14:12] <pihhan_> Chamwork-: it should tell you Access denied message, which i think i sufficient
[14:12] <hedenberg> void^: Ok, thanks. What exactly does that mean? :)
[14:12] <Chamwork-> pihhan_, indeed
[14:13] <Chamwork-> now, back to my question and i hope someone can hep
[14:13] <Chamwork-> hi guys, I have a quick question that hopefully will be easy.  On my windows machine I use pdfcreator to print to a virtual printer and print to TIFF (not pdf), then I have it automatically opening up that TIFF with my default program.  Does anyone know of any virtual printers like that for Ubuntu?  CUPS-PDF only prints pdf's
[14:13] <hedenberg> nevermind, i got it
[14:13] <aniac> I tried to mount it (sudo mount /dev/sda2 /media/mainhd) and I get a message: unknown filesystem 'LVM2_member'
[14:13] <void^> hedenberg: basically, how often the cpu switched around between different processes (which is rather expensive)
[14:13] <Slart> Chamwork-: I don't know of anything that does all of that.. but you can probably find a pdf to tiff converter.. imagemagick perhaps.. or ghostscript
[14:14] <hedenberg> Thanks. Doing some heavy load processes on the machine and saw it increase alooot.
[14:14] <Chamwork-> Slart, yeah, I tried imagemagik but it makes the tiff look pretty crappy
[14:14] <pihhan_> Chamwork-: you can make virtual printer in postscript and use some program to convert postscript file for bitmap
[14:14] <aniac> what may be wrong with that LVM2_member...?
[14:15] <Chamwork-> i guess i could print to pdf and then have it kick off a script to convert to tiff?  But I wouldn't even know how to set that up, are there any docs for that I could read up?
[14:15] <pihhan_> Chamwork-: but i dont expect many users needs this, so end user easy solution would not be easy to find
[14:15] <Chamwork-> pihhan_, do you have any site i could read up on how to do that?  i think that's my best bet
[14:15] <wers> anyone here tried lotus symphony?
[14:15] <wers> is it good? :D
[14:15] <izaq> can some body help me to install citrix client on ubuntu ?
[14:15] <pihhan_> Chamwork-: dont know, printing is little difficult in linux i think
[14:16] <Chamwork-> hehe, ok, i will wait to see if anyone else has ideas, but i think your way is the way to go
[14:16] <pihhan_> it used to be sequence of magic scripts, which converted input to printer language, you need to follow this way
[14:16] <Chamwork-> print to postscript file, then run imagemagik on that ps file to convert to tiff, then open with default program
[14:17] <Chamwork-> i did it by hand "convert input.pdf output.tif
[14:17] <pihhan_> manually configure postscript printer, then is pstopng or something like, but how to work it into cups is out of my knowledge
[14:17] <izaq> I have long problem with citrix installation
[14:17] <izaq> Citrix ICA Client any help ?
[14:17] <Chamwork-> pihhan_, thanks man, i will do some research on how to make new ps printers
[14:18] <Frogzoo> izaq: should be straightforward..
[14:18] <iNeo> izaq: What is the problem?
[14:18] <ali1234> Chamwork-: are you the person who asked about scanning to pdf about 1 month ago?
[14:18] <Chamwork-> izaq, what's thwe problem, only issue i ever had with icaclient is making sure you have the correct certs
[14:18] <Chamwork-> ali1234, nope

[14:21] <izaq> ubotu: i read that already ! and so many doc.
[14:21] <stelt> advise on partitions please
[14:21] <aniac> guys any idea about mounting?
[14:21] <aniac> I tried to mount  (sudo mount /dev/sda2 /media/mainhd) and I get a message: unknown filesystem 'LVM2_member'
[14:22] <Chamwork-> fyi, I'm really impressed with hardy 64bit so far.  firefox installed java and flash correctly and now opera has a 64bit opera snapshot, very cool stuff!  And, the wine install on hardy is super easy
[14:22] <whyameye> is there a way to know which loaded module is for what device? For example, how can I know for sure what ubuntu is choosing as the module for my onboard Ethernet controller?
[14:22] <stelt> Can Ubuntu work on one partition ?
[14:22] <Chamwork-> izaq, so you mean after you launch the app, the window is blank?  do you see it connecting and going through your login scripts?
[14:22] <ali1234> stelt: it sure can
[14:23] <Chamwork-> ali1234, i thought it needed a swap partition?
[14:23] <jerry_> hi

[14:23] <jerry_> wwwwwweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
[14:23] <metrofox> hello

[14:24] <stelt> Jack_Sparrow, how much should the swap be ?
[14:24] <jerry_> spencer are you there
[14:24] <Jack_Sparrow> stelt: I would suggest an extra ext3 setup as /home
[14:24] <calvin> yea
[14:24] <jerry_> lalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalallalalalalalalal
[14:25] <Jack_Sparrow> stelt: How much ram 2 gig of swap should be fine
[14:25] <izaq> Chamwork: any idea ?
[14:25] <redmonkey> stelt: swap = your ram*2
[14:25] <Chamwork-> oh, interesting question!  IF i have 4 gigs of ram, could i mae the swap partition go into 2 gigs of ram, and then the system only see's the remaining 2 gigs?  Wonder if that would speed it up?  Or is linux smart enough not to use swap if you have enough memory?
[14:25] <Jack_Sparrow> jerry_: Please stop that
[14:25] <jerry_> why
[14:25] <calvin> lalalalalalalalalalalalalalala
[14:25] <stelt> Jack Sparrow, that's 8GB then :-)
[14:25] <Chamwork-> izaq, so you can't even hit the url?
[14:25] <izaq> server show me (proxy problem) only
[14:25] <jerry_> Are you really Jack Sparrow
[14:25] <izaq> yes
[14:25] <Chamwork-> do this, boot into your windows in virtual box
[14:25] <LjL> jerry_: because it's spam
[14:26] <redmonkey> stelt: so if you have 1024 mb of ram, you should have a 2048 mb swap partition
[14:26] <ali1234> Chamwork-: linux is smart enough. putting swap on a ramdisk will only increase latency
[14:26] <Chamwork-> go into the web site

[14:26] <izaq> you mean .ica file ?
[14:27] <izaq> this is very nice idea :)
[14:27] <Chamwork-> go back into ubuntu, and edit the ica file in a text editor

[14:27] <Chamwork-> delete ica file i mean
[14:27] <Frogzoo> root: running irc as root is usually a bad plan
[14:28] <stelt> partition at beginning or end of free space? What's the difference?
[14:28] <Chamwork-> something like that, basically it tells the system to delete that file after it launches, which we don't want
[14:28] <Chamwork-> now, save the ica file and try launching it
[14:28] <Jack_Sparrow> pihhan_: Edit your sources list... uncheck the box in synaptic etc
[14:28] <Nives1> hi, anyone know what it could be:    after waking up my notebook from "suspend" or "hibernate" the mouse cursor isnt smooth anymore and the processor stays at like 50% use

[14:28] <izaq> iNeo I think my problem is the firewall watch I have it on my network :(
[14:29] <Chamwork-> izaq, did you read my stuff? follow it
[14:29] <Chamwork-> and see if it connects

[14:40] <linux__alien> i want to contribute to Ubuntu
[14:41] <linux__alien> and hence joined the team in launchpad.net

[14:42] <abhi_> hi i'm facing a weird issue with my thumb drive it's being listed on my lsusb but i can't see it on my mount what should i do?
[14:43] <Nermal> abhi_, paste your dmesg output to pastbin ?
[14:43] <pihhan_> abhi_: check dmesg|tail, if that writes about sda or such disk
[14:43] <Photo1> A quick question - I'm installing Ubuntu over my age old SUSE 10.0 - will it replace GRUB with a boot menu that recognizes the other OSes on my PC?

[14:45] <zeisss> Hi, can anyone help me with netatalk and the uam_dhx.so? It seems to be broken. Ubuntu server 6.06
[14:45] <natbet> How do you make ubuntu play a mp3 file when you put your mouse over it?
[14:45] <Photo1> thx Jack_Sparrow! And will the installer allow me to reformat the current Linux partition with FAT32 EXT3 so XP can see it?
[14:46] <pihhan_> but i expect it should work out of the box in ubuntu
[14:46] <titusg> natbet: why on earth would you want that?
[14:46] <abhi_> pihhan_: ok but its called sdb not sdb1
[14:46] <Tw> Photol: yes it will
[14:46] <Photo1> Or do you recommend some other filesystem?
[14:47] <abhi_> pihhan_: and when i do a mount it asks me to specify a file system
[14:47] <Jack_Sparrow> Photo1: I dont understand that question.. xp cant read ext3 by default without ext2ifs
[14:47] <natbet> titusg: working with several mp3s that aren't properly named, it works fine with wave files, just not mp3s
[14:47] <Photo1> Thx Jack_Sparrow and Tw :) So what do you recommend?
[14:47] <pihhan_> abhi_: sdb is disk device, every disk have partitions, and flash usually has only one. so sdb1 is first partition on flash disk
[14:48] <Photo1> There are XP boxes on this network, so I need them to see it
[14:48] <abhi_> pihhan: this is what i get when i do mount for sdb1
[14:48] <pihhan_> abhi_: check sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdb, there should be one
[14:48] <Jack_Sparrow> Photo1: The installer will let you format partitions to whatever you want.. but you need to rephrase your question about what all you want to do.  brb
[14:48] <abhi_> pihhan_: this is what i get for mount sdb1
[14:48] <abhi_> pihhan_: mount: special device /dev/sdb1 does not exist
[14:48] <aniac> guys any idea about lvm?
[14:49] <zeisss> Hi, can anyone help me with netatalk and the uam_dhx.so? It seems to be broken. Ubuntu server 6.06
[14:49] <pihhan_> Photo1: if you want share data over network, you don't need fat32 for that
[14:49] <sarthor> Hi, Error problem in installing vmware on ubuntu Hardy "Unable to build the vmmon module." please view the full error here "http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/54984/"
[14:49] <Frogzoo> !anyone | aniac
[14:49] <ubotu> aniac: 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?
[14:49] <abhi_> pihhan_: well i did an fdisk and it doesn't list sdb1
[14:49] <Yonie> hey guys, does anyone know where i can get visual studio for linux?
[14:49] <titusg> natbet: I see. Still sounds weird to me, I'd rather not hear them unless I deliberately play them
[14:49] <abhi_> pihhan_: however the device is recognized
[14:49] <Photo1> Jack_Sparrow: Current issue: Can only transfer files from Linux to XP, XP doesn't see it. Do I need to do something special in the Ubuntu installer for XP to see it?
[14:50] <aniac> well I installed lvm2 and am trying to mount a disk but can't
[14:50] <zeisss> Yonie: I dont think VS is available for linux.
[14:50] <pihhan_> abhi_: so, have you ever used that disk in windows?
[14:50] <Twim4> Photol: i think samba will help you
[14:50] <Photo1> I'm asking because 2 years ago when I last installed Linux, NTFS was not an option... could I format it to NTFS?
[14:50] <abhi_> pihhan_: i put it on a windows machine and the disk appears but it doesn't allow me to format it :(
[14:50] <titusg> I've never known a channel with so many etiquette messages being given out. Bet I get one now :-)
[14:50] <aniac> lvdisplay gets me a group VolGroup00 wich has two logical volumes: LogVol00 and LogVol01
[14:50] <Wiredtape> hey, I was wondering why there are no server apps in the add/remove programs? (like lamp installs (other than tasksel), or ircd's and so on..)
[14:51] <Photo1> Or maybe FAT32 ext2?
[14:51] <pihhan_> Photo1: are these XP on same computer as your ubuntu, or on different computer in network?
[14:51] <zeisss> wiredtape: use Aptitude
[14:51] <Zyklon-B> Wiredtape, you'll find then in synaptic
[14:51] <adac2> how can i close all ports with iptables?
[14:51] <Zyklon-B> *them
[14:51] <Saulgood> i've reinstalled 6.06lts server, eth0 got a dhcp address fine, i've changed to static and restarted the network but then get ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready and it resolves back the dynamic address - why does this occur - never happened before?
[14:51] <aniac> any idea on what can I do in order to mount LogVol01?
[14:51] <joey[]> how do I switch between workplaces with a key?
[14:52] <ali1234> Photo1: you can get an ext3 driver for XP
[14:52] <Photo1> pihhan_: both, but I could survive if only this box can see its own partitions in XP
[14:52] <Wiredtape> zeiss, zyklon-b, will take a look, thx
[14:52] <Pici> joey[]: ctrl+alt+leftarrow or rightarrow
[14:52] <jrib> joey[]: ctrl-alt-<arrow key>  or modify it in system -> preferences -> keyboard shortcuts
[14:52] <joey[]> Pici: thx
[14:53] <pihhan_> Photo1: for sharing over network, you need Samba server, it will offer any folder you configure from your linux, does not matter if it is fat32, ext3 or xfs
[14:53] <zombie_monkey> Sorry, silly question, but I found this: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Framebuffer-HOWTO-5.html and in the end there is a guide to modifying the appearanche of the framebuffer cursor... any idea how I can make it permanent? and for apps that I launch, not just bash?
[14:53] <rich__> when i access an smb share, where is that connection held?
[14:53] <rich__> so that i can manually kill it
[14:53] <pihhan_> Photo1: to see data from XP, you need shared data partition, or install ext3 driver into XP box
[14:53] <Jack_Sparrow> !ext2ifs
[14:53] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ext2ifs - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[14:53] <Photo1> I guess I'm just being to cautious... will the default Ubuntu install filesystem make it visible in XP without XP drivers?
[14:54] <ali1234> Photo1: no
[14:54] <pihhan_> no, linux in fat32 might be possible, but is extremely inefficient
[14:54] <_elemental> Photol, http://www.fs-driver.org/
[14:54] <Jack_Sparrow> Photo1: You cannot make windows see ext3 without a driver in windows
[14:54] <Jack_Sparrow> _elemental: thanks
[14:55] <Yonie> zeisss, is there an quivilant of visual studio for linux? something for C#.net
[14:55] <Photo1> I get you, so what do you recommend for good Linux performance that will not make it impossible for XP access (later)?
[14:55] <_elemental> sure, I've been using that driver for a few years, works flawlessly
[14:55] <ali1234> Photo1: ext3 is the only real choice
[14:55] <Photo1> FAT32 ext3?
[14:55] <pihhan_> Photo1: ext3 filesystem in linux, ext3 filesystem driver in windows
[14:55] <_elemental> http://www.fs-driver.org/ will see reiser as well
[14:55] <miltiadis21> Guys do you know any good book site to help you for application develop i mean what do you have to do before you do the contract
[14:56] <pihhan_> Photo1: or make one shared partition for data, which will be usable in both systems
[14:56] <pihhan_> if you dont need everything from linux
[14:56] <zeisss> Yonie: I dont know if the mono project (.net under linux) is developing an ide.
[14:56] <_elemental> miltiadis21: safari.oreilly.com
[14:56] <_elemental> >.>
[14:57] <adac2> Yonie: monodevelop
[14:57] <zeisss> Yonie: Under linux you basically get the command line tools and choose a texteditor by yourself afaik.
[14:57] <zeisss> or you follow adac2 advice ;)
[14:57] <adac2> Yonie: its a bit tricky but also a bit unstable ;)
[14:57] <miltiadis21> _elemental how we call this proccess in english?
[14:57] <ali1234> Yonie: there's also eclipse or kdevelop (but i never used either)
[14:58] <adac2> but it looks nice :D
[14:58] <Photo1> Hmm "FAT32 is extremely inefficient"+"use ext3". Confused. :) Isn't ext3=FAT32 ext3?
[14:58] <ali1234> Photo1: no not at all, they are totally different
[14:58] <Photo1> ah, got it :)
[14:58] <Photo1> I have all I need, thank you so much!
[14:58] <Photo1> Will now go offline and install. Thanks!

[15:00] <peter77> hi, I'm having "too many files open" errors whilst running and exiting Eclipse, can anyone help?
[15:01] <kandinski> Pici: thanks
[15:01] <kandinski> !FlashIssues
[15:01] <ubotu> The Flash plugin installation is currently broken. This is due to Adobe changing the tar file that the package downloads. Fixes have landed in -proposed for testing, but most most users are advised to wait until packages are approved and released in -updates.
[15:01] <ali1234> Yonie: looks like kdevelop and C# is "work in progress"
[15:01] <zeisss> Does anyone have knowledge about netatalk?
[15:01] <pranith> hello, im getting an error as error while loading shared libraries: libm.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[15:01] <crolle17> searching for file goes like this: find myfile; but i only want to find files in specific folder. which option to set for searching in folder /tmp ?
[15:01] <pranith> what do i do?
[15:01] <Yonie> adac2, ill give it a try, Im doing a microsoft course, but i would rather do the coding in linux
[15:02] <zeisss> I get "uam_load(uams_dhx.so): mod_symbol error for symbol uams_dhx"
[15:02] <Yonie> ali1234, hmmm, ok maybe eclipse

[15:03] <Zeek15> well that did not work....
[15:03] <adac2> Yonie: tell me then how it works...
[15:03] <pranith> Jack_Sparrow, im running an executable called pin...
[15:03] <switch_> Hi I managed to remove my user from the admin group.  I tried to fix this by rebooting in single user mode, but the root prompt seems nonresponsive.
[15:03] <Zeek15> I restarted the X server and ubuntu crashed...
[15:03] <Frogzoo> crolle17: find /tmp ...
[15:03] <Jack_Sparrow> pranith: pin what
[15:03] <pranith> Jack_Sparrow, its an instrumentation binary i compiled from source
[15:04] <slasher> hey, after updating to catalyst 8.1 compiz doesn't start anymore, 3d is working but compiz gives "desktop effects could not be enabled", anybody know what's up with this?
[15:04] <Jack_Sparrow> pranith: Then we wont be much help.
[15:04] <pranith> Jack_Sparrow, i actually have that library installed
[15:04] <pranith> Jack_Sparrow, also i compiled that pin from source...
[15:04] <switch_> ...
[15:05] <Zeek15> so I'm gonna install ati's drivers from their site see if I can get this working, but another thing I can't get the restricted ati driver to enable either
[15:05] <Jack_Sparrow> pranith: No errors when you compied it.. have you compiled thigs before?
[15:06] <pranith> Jack_Sparrow, yes, i compiled things before and no error
[15:06] <Jack_Sparrow> Zeek15: Did you post your xorg yet?
[15:06]  * Celes waves to mr sparrow
[15:07] <Zeek15> not yet
[15:07] <enzo> someone uses freecontrib source ?
[15:07] <rich__> guys how do i delete a session connected via smn?

[15:07] <Celes> was too afraid to
[15:08] <Sharpie> how do i insert special characters to documents? (like, in windows it's alt+number, and here in the charmap it says U+number. what's U?)
[15:08] <Jack_Sparrow> Celes: I understand, which is why I suggested installing and uninstalling a different program with synaptic for you to better understand how that works
[15:09] <Celes> I ll try it later
[15:09] <Celes> im very busy today!
[15:09] <Celes> I have to make a presentation on how sex and the city and anthropology go together
[15:09] <Celes> ><
[15:09] <kandinski> what's the difference between gnash and swfdec?
[15:10] <jickles> any reason why changes to ~/.Xdefaults aren't effecting when I run xterm?
[15:10] <ali1234> kandinski: at a guess, gnash displays swf, swfdec decompiles it
[15:10] <slasher> so no one knows how to get compiz running on catalyst 8.1?
[15:10] <Jack_Sparrow> slasher: Try asking in #Compiz
[15:10] <crolle17> Frogzoo, so searching for all files belonging to group crolle in folder /home/crolle/test looks like this: find /home/crolle/test * -group crolle     ?

[15:10] <slasher> cd /part
[15:11] <slasher> oops
[15:12] <o00w_> Kino, the video capture software only seems to know DV files.  I can browse my sony camcorder and pull the MPGs off but cannot capture through Kino.  Kino also will not let me open an MPG.  does anyone know a way around this or a similar editing tool like Kino?

[15:52] <d33d> Nermal, can i update a windows machine with a linux machine though?
[15:52] <Nermal> d33d, umm.. I doubt it
[15:53] <Nermal> d33d, why would you want to ?
[15:53] <d33d> to get windows out of the way.
[15:53] <Jack_Sparrow> goodhabit: I dont know about gui.. but dd is pretty good at that

[15:53] <d33d> I don't feel like learning how to create batch files Nermal
[15:53] <Nermal> goodhabit, dd if=/dev/cdrom of=~/hopefullygoodimage.iso
[15:53] <goodhabit> Jack_Sparrow, I am using gddrescue for it. But I'm looking for some gui application.
[15:53] <Tyger> how can i install new icons?
[15:53] <Nermal> d33d, I don't feel like helping :P

[15:56] <Jack_Sparrow> d33d: That is offtopic for this room... you should tell people WHAT language you want to write it in and go to one of those rooms
[15:56] <Polysics> hi all
[15:56] <d33d> Jack_Sparrow, but if its possible with command line commands its HERE that I need to ask.
[15:57] <Polysics> is anyone unable to use ping after latest upgrade
[15:57] <Polysics> ?
[15:57] <Polysics> what's fun is that i can use the gateway and DNS
[15:57] <Polysics> but not ping them
[15:57] <Polysics> also, i can't SSH to them either
[15:57] <aman> Jack_Sparrow: it is just how to configure but i want to compile C program.
[15:57] <Jack_Sparrow> d33d: command lines are the same as writing a bash script...
[15:57] <d33d> omg
[15:57] <Polysics> might it have something to do with the new kernel?
[15:58] <d33d> so i run ubuntu and can't get help here. awesome.
[15:58] <Jack_Sparrow> Behave
[15:58] <iNeo> Polysics: I am able to ping no problem

[15:58] <Celes> I need sound help
[15:58] <tll> Hi, I am looking for a *lazy* way to fix problems with the rt2x00 (rt73usb) driver in the current gutsy kernel. Is there  an easy way? The current rt2x00 source wants a 2.6.24-rc1 kernel.
[15:58] <Polysics> iNeo, maybe not the correct place, but any ideas?
[15:58] <Celes> its the worst sound quality known to man
[15:58] <Celes> to cd files
[15:58] <d33d> Pici, been there done that. They just said to use batch files.
[15:59] <Celes> and I know these songs are good quality :(
[15:59] <iNeo> Polysics: try sudo ping <host>
[15:59] <iNeo> Maybe a issue with security on the command
[15:59] <mahmoud_> iNeo: how will sudo kill in that case?
[15:59] <aman> can anyone tell me how to compile C program i cannot compile program using ($ gcc program_name)

[15:59] <wizzo_> i have a tv hooked up with my computer monitor on a nvidia card, i wanted to know if there was a way to make the tv run off of desktop 2 and the computer monitor on desktop 1
[16:00] <brobostigon> aman: ./configure , make , make install
[16:00] <d33d> aman, you should go to the C programming channel
[16:00] <neb_net> how have i 'lost' my sound card driver after the linux-headers upgrade?

[16:01] <amenado> d33d you may also go to the #windows channel
[16:02] <d33d> amenado, already looked there, they told me to use batch files, but i don't want to
[16:02] <edward_> Could anyone suggest an easy way to encrypt a whole filesystem?
[16:02] <amenado> d33d then its off topic here too, if you want bash visit #bash channel

[16:03] <fx|RabBit> hi all i am looking for some sophtware to capture working times for linux, anybody has something like that in usage?
[16:03] <mohbana_> !clone | mohbana
[16:03] <ubotu> mohbana: 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 && sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade » - See also !automate
[16:03] <mohbana_> !clone > mohbana
[16:04] <idefix_> any experience here with OCRAD?
[16:04] <Slart> fx|RabBit: capture working times?.. explain a bit more
[16:04] <dgjones> wizzo_, have you looked into twinview?
[16:04] <wizzo_> dgjones, yea i have it all set up, but i have to drag the things over to the tv, i wanted to know if i could just set the tv over to use desktop 2 instead
[16:04] <fx|RabBit> Slart: well if you go to work in the morning you say hello to big brother and in the evening you say good bye, thats basically it:)
[16:05] <dgjones> wizzo_, right, don't know if you can do that
[16:05] <fx|RabBit> Slart: so that our secretary doesnt have to do alle the job via calculation sheets
[16:05] <wizzo_> dgjones, yea i dont think you can either but it was worth a shot :P  thanx
[16:05] <Jack_Sparrow> fx|RabBit: So a timecard?
[16:05] <fx|RabBit> Jack_Sparrow: if that is the correct term for it in english i guess so:]
[16:05] <Slart> fx|RabBit: ah.. ok.. I know what you mean.. nope.. don't know if there is such a beast in the repos..
[16:06] <Jack_Sparrow> fx|RabBit: Tracking in and out for employees?
[16:06] <fx|RabBit> Jack_Sparrow: exactly
[16:06] <amenado> fx|RabBit-> but you know, computer folks dont work only  8 hours in a day, its more usually, I hope you get paid over 8 hours a day
[16:06] <fx|RabBit> Jack_Sparrow: like when you go for lunch, when youre on vacation, etc
[16:07] <Jack_Sparrow> fx|RabBit: That should be easy enough. I wrote one for windows that used old Direct TV cards as ID cards..
[16:07] <fx|RabBit> amenado: this is basically one of our main concerns; to get the overtime payed;)
[16:07] <piroko> Alright. I want to use fluxbox. Is there a way to make network manager and my suspend keys work like they do in gnome?
[16:07] <amenado> fx|RabBit-> just curious which country are you from?
[16:07] <fx|RabBit> Jack_Sparrow: beg your pardon? XD
[16:08] <fx|RabBit> austria/central europe, no kangaroos
[16:08] <Jack_Sparrow> fx|RabBit: It was to keep employees from logging each other in and out.
[16:08] <mook124> (I moved my hard drive from a p3 to an amd64 x2) When I boot the normal way the screen flickers and is otherwise unusable, however I am able to start the computer if you use the recovery mode. Do I have to reinstall ubuntu or is there a way of fixing this?
[16:08] <fx|RabBit> Jack_Sparrow: well that would be a reason to get fired over here, noone somehow reasonable does such things here;)
[16:09] <mook124> start as in boot ubuntu not the hardware itself
[16:09] <Jack_Sparrow> fx|RabBit: How many employees are we talking about?
[16:09] <fx|RabBit> Jack_Sparrow: amenado: if you google that you find about 10.000 results but none of that works on linux, that is really phunny
[16:10] <Jack_Sparrow> fx|RabBit: How much of a rush are you in?
[16:10] <fx|RabBit> Jack_Sparrow: at the moment like 10, but could easily be cooped with other parts an then about 80-100
[16:10] <fx|RabBit> Jack_Sparrow: basically none i should have it till october? gg
[16:10] <amenado> fx|RabBit-> come on, give the sexytary something to do other than... heh
[16:11] <fx|RabBit> amenado: hehe well we would free her ressources for more useful things gg
[16:11] <amenado> free her assets eh..hmmm.
[16:11] <Jack_Sparrow> fx|RabBit: not a problem..  Can you check back with me in a couple days.  I will see how hard it would be to rewrite one of my windows programs.. Do all employees check in and out on the same pc?
[16:11] <adelie42> How do I setup gnome so that each workspace has its own unique set of menu bars and backgroud?
[16:12] <fx|RabBit> Jack_Sparrow: well that is a WOW offer for starters
[16:12] <fx|RabBit> Jack_Sparrow: nope everybody on his own pc basically
[16:12] <Jack_Sparrow> fx|RabBit: Silly that there is not one available.. at least a basic timecard
[16:13] <fx|RabBit> Jack_Sparrow: well i been googling all day, maybe thats not enuff, but going gets tuff atm if you know what i mean...

[16:18] <Jack_Sparrow> lordleemo: Let me look thanks
[16:18] <ali1234> j: because i've never seen the nvidia driver do cloning in X unless you explicitly ask for it
[16:18] <RisingClouds> Hi all :D
[16:18] <element> whats the problem with the nvidia?
[16:18] <ali1234> j: precisely what card do you have?

[16:24] <ubotu> Akash: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[16:25] <ali1234> j: /msg me your email and i'll send them (one for xinerama and one for twinview)
[16:25] <Akash> !patience
[16:25] <ubotu> The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[16:25] <j> ali1234: wait, doesn't twinview span over the monitors?
[16:26] <DRebellion> !windows | Seth^^

[16:26] <Akash> pls answer
[16:26] <Pici> Akash: We are not Shipit, you probably should seek them out for support.
[16:26] <ali1234> j: er, yeah, but you still get two desktops
[16:26] <noodlesgc> Akash, i dont know why that would happen, why not just download?
[16:26] <r_a_f> Akash:  what you need?
[16:26] <Akash> i hav a 64kbps connection
[16:26] <j> ali1234: not really. I already got that working ... that's an extension of your existing desktop
[16:26] <Seth^^> DRebellion, oh im sorry, i thought OPEN OFFICE HAS EXCEL TOO AND IM RUNNING UBUNTU LINUX !
[16:26] <j> ali1234: totally different concept :)
[16:26] <Akash> i wanted 2 try out the 3D desktop
[16:26] <Pici> !caps | Seth^^
[16:27] <ubotu> Seth^^: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[16:27] <ali1234> j: the difference is that with xinerama you get two X screens, and with twinview you get one X screen stretched. for the most part there is no difference, but compiz wont work with xinerama, and fullscreen apps (eg) SDL dont play well with twinview
[16:27] <Seth^^> :)
[16:27] <Seth^^> why in the world would i join this channel if i was on windows ?...
[16:27] <r_a_f> Akash:  you mran compiz?
[16:27] <Pici> Seth^^: OO.org has a spreadsheet program, but its not Excel.
[16:27] <amenado> Seth^^-> it is called xcalc not excel
[16:27] <j> ali1234: I actually need two completely separate full desktop environments ...
[16:27] <Akash> whats compiz
[16:27] <Pici> !openoffice | Seth^^
[16:27] <ubotu> Seth^^: a free and open source office suite, including word processor, spreadsheet, presentation, vector drawing and database components.  To install: "sudo apt-get install openoffice.org". User help available in #users.openoffice.org
[16:27] <DRebellion> !compiz | Akash
[16:27] <ubotu> Akash: Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - help in #compiz-fusion
[16:27] <ali1234> j: so what do you want then? two totally separate X sessions one on each screen?
[16:27] <Seth^^> fine, spreadsheet
[16:27] <Seth^^> same deal anyway
[16:28] <j> ali1234: yep that's it :)
[16:28] <Seth^^> spreadsheet functions, anyone knows them ?
[16:28] <ali1234> j: ok, well, i've never tried to do that
[16:28] <j> ali1234: oh :(
[16:28] <noodlesgc> akash, just look what compiz can do http://images.google.com/images?hl=en&q=compiz&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=wi
[16:28] <Pici> Seth^^: You'll probably get a faster answer asking in #users.openoffice.org
[16:28] <ali1234> j: im not certain it is possible with a single card
[16:28] <DRebellion> Seth^^: it is not the same deal. people will flame or ignore you if you say that in a linux channel.
[16:28] <amenado> Seth^^-> maybe state the problem
[16:28] <j> ali1234: it's definitely possible .. i've read it being done on the net ...
[16:28] <switch_> thanks to whoever helped me.  I used the cd to add myself back to the admin group.
[16:29] <Seth^^> ok...... amenado , i have in a cell a date (06/02/2008) and i want other cells to increment the day
[16:29] <Grab> hi
[16:29] <Seth^^> based on the first cell that has the date
[16:29] <amenado> switch_-> i suggested you use liveCd...am glad it worked for you
[16:29] <Grab> im trying to set up irssi as a bnc for mirc: what should i do after /load proxy ?
[16:30] <Schiz0> Grab: After you do "/load proxy", you should read the irssi documentation that explains exactly what to do.
[16:30] <Seth^^> so 1st cell is the date (06/02/2008) second will be 07/02/2008 and so on
[16:30] <tll> Hello, is there a way to use the the current rt2x00 driver with gutsy?
[16:30] <Grab> Schiz0 i type /help proxy ?
[16:30] <seksmurf> what does the $ sign in front of command means?
[16:30] <j> ali1234: well... I guess I'll play around some more ....
[16:30] <Schiz0> Grab: http://irssi.org/documentation/proxy
[16:30] <seksmurf> like $cp or $make?
[16:30] <j> ali1234: thanks for your help!
[16:30] <amenado> Seth^^-> look in the configs for auto calculate..
[16:30] <Grab> Schiz0 thanks
[16:30] <Pici> seksmurf: It means to type that on your shell.
[16:30] <jrib> seksmurf: it's just a way of telling you it is a command for your shell
[16:31] <DRebellion> seksmurf: it is simply part of the shell
[16:31] <ali1234> j: i know that there's nothing in nvidia-settings to let you do it, so it's a matter of hand crafting your xorg.conf. i suggest reading the README for nvidia-driver available on nvidia website, it is fairly complete and lists all the extra options of the driver... but you probably already did that, right?
[16:31] <seksmurf> oic....
[16:31] <PriceChild> tll, sudo apt-get install module-assistant, then use it to install the appropriate module.
[16:31] <amenado> seksmurf-> it is called shell prompt
[16:31] <Seth^^> amenado, and where might those be ? im a newbie to open office spreadsheet or excel for that matter
[16:31] <seksmurf> oic... thanks
[16:31] <j> ali1234: good idea. I've done it in the past but not lately.
[16:31] <amenado> Seth^^-> look under options or settings? maybe google for tutorials on xcalc
[16:32] <tll> PriceChild, tried, the current rt2x00 in gutsy is broken, the cvs needs a recent kernel - is there a backport?
[16:32] <Journeyman> is there a way to make it so users can mount devices?
[16:32] <PriceChild> tll, works for me perfectly.
[16:32] <Pici> !fuse > Journeyman (Please see the private messsage from ubotu)
[16:33] <PriceChild> tll, rt2500 and rt2570
[16:33] <Pici> Journeyman: That may not be what you're looking for, but its a good place to start.
[16:33] <tll> PriceChild, your lucky, but I got a rt73 stick :)
[16:33] <amenado> Journeyman-> also you can add entries in sudoers to dedicate one function for them to mount
[16:33] <Seth^^> amenado, i dont have time to research a solution, thats why i asked if anyone here knows shit about those functions, nevermind ill go to #open.office.org. Thanks anyway
[16:33] <Pici> !language | Seth^^
[16:33] <ubotu> Seth^^: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly.
[16:33] <PriceChild> tll, how is that rt2x00 ?
[16:33] <chung> noodlesgc: is there any other way to download urban terror?
[16:33] <Seth^^> Pici oh come on....
[16:33] <amenado> Seth^^-> we dont have time to assist people in such a hurry
[16:33] <Journeyman> amenado, I don't want to use sudo, I want the user to be able to do it
[16:34] <Seth^^> understood amenado
[16:34] <Seth^^> thanks, bye
[16:34] <chung> noodlesgc: can i use the terminal to download urban terror?
[16:34] <Journeyman> isn't there like suid or something
[16:34] <Photo1> Hello, just installed Ubuntu, and want to contribute :)
[16:34] <amenado> Journeyman-> thats the best way to find out who can mount and distmount
[16:35] <Photo1> My LCD (Dell 2707WFP) config file is incorrect. I have gotten a correct modeline from Powerstrip
[16:35] <ktwo> anyone using an ASUS notebook with ubuntu?
[16:35] <Photo1> Also got complete list of specs from dell.se
[16:35] <Grab> Schiz0 i read your link and typed this: /SET irssiproxy_ports Undernet=668, now what should i do next ?  (i already added the Unernet network)
[16:35] <skold> hey does somebody know which version of php joomla needs to run?
[16:35] <tll> PriceChild, in gutsy the module is called rt73usb. Am I wrong?
[16:35] <MrObvious> ktwo: I'm using a Dell Vostro. :p
[16:35] <noodlesgc> chung well, not exactly, first you should get axel (sudo apt-get install axel)
[16:35] <PriceChild> tll, no idea.
[16:36] <Pici> skold: Have you tried  #joomla?
[16:36] <PriceChild> tll, probably
[16:36] <Schiz0> Grab: you should be able to detach irssi (if you're running it inside a screen session), and then connect to the computer irssi is running as on port 668
[16:36] <Photo1> How do I make a correct Administration/Graphics-Screen list entry, which files to modify? Then I could send them to someone to make a package?
[16:36] <Schiz0> Grab: But I gotta run, try asking in #irssi
[16:36] <tll> tll, don't think so, reading https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.22/+bug/134660 brought me here.
[16:36] <Grab> k Schiz0 thanks
[16:36] <noodlesgc> chung then open a terminal and just paste this line: axel http://www.iourt.com/urt41/UrbanTerror_41_FULL.zip
[16:36] <skold> Pici: thanks
[16:37] <seksmurf> exit
[16:37] <chung> ok noodlesgc

[16:38] <DRebellion> Can anyone recommend a good python IDE? I've looked through the repos and google, but want a bit of real advice.
[16:38] <two_bits> i want to eject a usb jumpdrive, but when I right click on the device
[16:38] <two_bits> the only option I see is "unmount"
[16:38] <brobostigon> DRebellion: i use idle
[16:39] <noodlesgc> DRebellion, i use gedit for everything
[16:39] <Photo1> I could just quick fix xorg.conf, but then I wouldn't be helping others ;)
[16:39] <two_bits> DRebellion: I also use idle
[16:39] <cst-student> join #mrmonday
[16:39] <tll> PriceChild, The "real" names for rt73usb are: rt2571W & rt2671 and they are in the r2x00 driver.
[16:39] <noodlesgc> DRebellion, use the tools plugin and you can make gedit an anything IDE
[16:39] <DRebellion> noodlesgc: if i wanted to do that i'd use vim ;)
[16:39] <two_bits> pffft
[16:40] <PriceChild> tll, ahh ok. Sorry but i've no experience with them
[16:40]  * DRebellion installs idle
[16:40] <two_bits> anyway, is the eject option hidden in some other menu
[16:40] <noodlesgc> DRebellion, gedit is better than vim
[16:40] <brobostigon> two_bits: unmount is th right option to remove a flash drive
[16:40] <two_bits> yes
[16:40] <two_bits> but when i remove the flash drive after unmounting
[16:40] <DRebellion> noodlesgc: you're just asking for war...
[16:40] <two_bits> it says that i have removed it unsafely, and that I should have selected eject
[16:41] <DRebellion> :)
[16:41] <two_bits> i don't think the message means much, considering it's already been unmounted, but i am curious how to eject it all the same
[16:41] <SeicherlBoB> hi there! I got major problems with my ATI graphics card HD2400: I'm using it in my VDR for output to my tv over xineliboutput. the Xserver crashes after a couple of channelswitches with a segvault (module glesx.so). Does anybody know that issue of crashing X when playing video?
[16:41] <tll> PriceChild, no problem, I was hoping that there is a backport for the gutsy 2.6.22 kernel through the module-assistant.
[16:41] <noodlesgc> Wow flash just got fixed
[16:42] <DRebellion> two_bits: use the 'eject' command
[16:42] <^root^> i cant view cretain non-english sites like those which are in arabic/persian/urdu in my firefox correctly, an example could be www.itmesh.com where certain characters appear as boxes, i will enable the PANGO line in /etc/environment
[16:43] <neb_net> could any one tell me how to compare 2 directory trees?
[16:43] <DRebellion> neb_net: could you elaborate a bit more on what you mean by "compare"?

[16:43] <neb_net> like diff, but for folder trees
[16:45] <^root^> neb_net, a very dump method, create files for each directory you want to compare, and apply diff on that
[16:45] <MTecknology> How can I not allow a user to send mail as another user? ie, restrict them to sending mail as themselves only.
