[03:38] <billybennett> Jack_Sparrow, nothing but I have a U3 drive that has special windows abilitys.. when in windows it shows a drive but it also pretends to be a cdrom so it can autorun apps... right now in ubuntu I just need to store some files on it
[03:38] <Wizardling> has anyone at all got 6.06 running on an early CRT iMac?
[03:38] <damo22> azureal :) nice have u tried wmii-3
[03:38] <azureal> damo22: no
[03:38] <Jack_Sparrow> fuzzybunny: I told you my opinion yesterday on that, NTFS ...
[03:38] <damo22> azureal: kinda cool based on tabbing, no need for a mouse
[03:38] <masterbender> hi can anyone tell me how to restart my sound-demon on ubuntu ?!

[03:39] <damo22> azureal: alt-p for bash-like autocompletion-app-launch
[03:39] <Icemasta[God] > Do you have a wiki for ubuntu?
[03:39] <Icemasta[God] > Will help me like hell
[03:39] <Jack_Sparrow> billybennett: If it has some special Windows magic you will need to do some detective work, or perhaps partition it...
[03:39] <lillpelle> Icemasta[God] : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/
[03:40] <azureal> hehe, you can also just post here, one problem at at time =)
[03:40] <fuzzybunny> Jack_Sparrow, I had someone helping me w/it almost all day
[03:40] <saiko> hi, can anyone tell me what should i do so my ubuntu would wait for network interfaces to come up when booting ?
[03:40] <billybennett> Jack_Sparrow, does it show up on the desktop like CDs?
[03:40] <acab_> i've 2 monitor in ubuntu... one near the pc and one with a television... if i move the mouse pointer to te right of the desktop 4 i can see the pointer in the televison... but how i start a program in the television?
[03:40] <fuzzybunny> Jack_Sparrow, we still didn't get it working...kinda dissapointing since windows shares have been around QUITE a long time now
[03:40] <yey> hi
[03:40] <snoops> anyway I can auto arrange or sort icons on the gnome desktop?
[03:40] <azureal> damo22, I ran debfoster last night... i feel like i've done a good 'cleaning'
[03:41] <Jack_Sparrow> fuzzybunny: have you tried it on a fat32 and not an ntfs share?
[03:41] <damo22> :P)
[03:41] <saiko> any help ?
[03:41] <pusling> hmm... I have problems with debootstrapping breezy. it fails when retrieving locales and all packages after that.
[03:41] <damo22> saiko: dont ask if u can ask, just ask
[03:41] <saiko> i already did ;)
[03:41] <fuzzybunny> Jack_Sparrow, I'm not going to bend over my entire production network for the sake of a ubuntu virtual machine
[03:41] <fuzzybunny> :(
[03:42] <saiko> as far as i know i should edit some file - put some magic lines in it
[03:42] <saiko> har-har-har
[03:42] <yey> I'd like to write a script which will: 1) go to specified folder 2) go to the folder with the highest lexicographically name 3) repeat point 2 once 4) and vim the file with the highest lex. name but with the extension *.cpp | Could someone help me with that?
[03:42] <Jack_Sparrow> fuzzybunny: But it would be easy enouhg to test and you would then KNOW where the problem is..
[03:42] <damo22> saiko: ohh yes sorry :)  i think u need sysv-rc
[03:42] <acab_> nobody vould help me?
[03:43] <acab_> could
[03:43] <acab_> sorry
[03:43] <fuzzybunny> I wish
[03:43] <saiko> damo22: sysv-rc ?
[03:43] <snoops> yey hmm would be more of a #bash question?
[03:43] <yey> snoops: ok, I'll try
[03:43] <damo22> saiko, u need to change the order of the bootup scripts i think
[03:44] <damo22> saiko: if u want network interface to boot later
[03:44] <saiko> ok, i'll look into it
[03:44] <saiko> no no
[03:44] <saiko> i want them to come up - system to wait for them
[03:44] <billybennett> Jack_Sparrow, it says Unable to Mount Select Volume
[03:44] <saiko> otherwise sometimes dhcp fails
[03:44] <damo22> ok
[03:44] <saiko> and i'm left without ip
[03:45] <Jack_Sparrow> billybennett: SOunds like your special windows software isnt so special to Ubuntu
[03:45] <damo22> saiko: if dhcp fails, usually its because its not configured correctly
[03:45] <billybennett> Jack_Sparrow, I'm reading that it should work normal under Ubuntu
[03:45] <Wizardling> Can anyone recommend a Ubuntu like Linux that runs on PPC Macs?
[03:45] <zipper_> How do i disable acpi during installation with the livecd? I tried adding 'noacpi' to boot options, but acpi is still getting enabled/loaded.
[03:45] <Wizardling> since Ubuntu doesn't work?
[03:46] <damo22> zipper: acpi=off?
[03:46] <Jack_Sparrow> zipper_: F6 and acpi=off
[03:46] <damo22> zipper: pretty certain
[03:46] <djk_> Wizardling: Debian?
[03:46] <zipper_> damo22, thanks... didn't it use to be noacpi?
[03:46] <damo22> zipper: i think thats for knoppix :P
[03:46] <zipper_> debian as well i think
[03:46] <alessandro_> hi, i'm trying to install packages on a new installation of ubuntu version 5.10 , however i get dependency errors on other packages. i tried looking at the default respository and  see there are already some links to breezy by default, obviously i am missing something else i need to add manually
[03:47] <saiko> damo22: there really isn't anything to configure - windows machine with shared internet connection turned on, 2 network cards and that's about it
[03:47] <alessandro_> what other repositories should i add :o
[03:47] <Wizardling> What distinguishes Ubuntu from Debian, and vice versa?
[03:47] <apostols> Hi, i have problems with Sound in Dapper Drake
[03:47] <zipper_> YES!
[03:47] <damo22> saiko: does ifconfig give u a device?
[03:47] <zipper_> ITS BOOTING
[03:47] <saiko> should go, thx for now
[03:47] <zipper_> thanks Jack_Sparrow and damo22
[03:47] <Jack_Sparrow> Wizardling:  US... spend a few minutes in their channel
[03:47] <damo22> saiko: step 1 make sure your device is detected
[03:48] <djk_> Wizardling: well, Ubuntu is like a child Debian never wanted :p
[03:48] <alessandro_> any other repositories i should add asides from the default already there by default, anybody :o
[03:48] <Wizardling> djk - what does that mean? :-D
[03:48] <apostols> root@sao:~# discover sound
[03:48] <apostols> Intel Corporation 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Audio Controller
[03:48] <apostols> root@sao:~# discover sound --module
[03:48] <apostols> i810_audio
[03:48] <saiko> it's just that dhcp didn't assign any ip to my ubuntu box, was the same with windows
[03:48] <saiko> however after 10x reboots it does
[03:48] <mikolan_> How do I mount a truecrypt volume with write access to my user?
[03:48] <Jack_Sparrow> !paste
[03:48] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[03:49] <saiko> do not know where the problem is so i thought maybe i should configure ubuntu to wait for ip, huh
[03:49] <alessandro_> ahh i see : http://ubuntu.compiz.net/dists/drapper/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz: 404 Not Found
[03:49] <Wizardling> Is there any list of supported Mac models for Ubuntu?
[03:49] <Wizardling> I'm tired of hit and miss.
[03:49] <Jack_Sparrow> saiko: If you connect the Ub direct does it work... or is this a lag going through the windows box
[03:49] <apostols> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20287
[03:49] <alessandro_> whats other repositories should i dd then :o
[03:49] <tanlaan> Wizardling: Hey
[03:50] <apostols> Can i help me?
[03:50] <Jack_Sparrow> !mac
[03:50] <ubotu> I know nothing about mac - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[03:50] <djk_> Wizardling: what's wrong with OS X?
[03:50] <apostols> The sound dont work
[03:50] <damo22> saiko: well before u edit the bootup scripts you should try it manually
[03:50] <saiko> Jack_Sparrow: it does
[03:50] <Wizardling> hey tanlaan
[03:50] <Pntkl> hi
[03:50] <Wizardling> it failed tanlaan
[03:50] <saiko> the problem is with windows shared internet connection
[03:50] <tanlaan> Wizardling: Grr, did it do what I said?
[03:50] <saiko> and at the moment it does run
[03:50] <Icemasta[God] > God damn
[03:50] <saiko> without any problems
[03:50] <Icemasta[God] > Installing 1 game with wine is like
[03:50] <Icemasta[God] > 2 hours
[03:50] <RichEd> hello
[03:50] <tanlaan> Wizardling: It wont start gdm after it stops it
[03:50] <Wizardling> I get, upon saving the changes to /etc/X11/xorg.conf, and then typing sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart the following error: "Starting GNOME Display Manager... fail"
[03:51] <Jack_Sparrow> saiko: Then you need to look more at the windows box...
[03:51] <saiko> problem is that sometimes this win shared connection doesn't share
[03:51] <tanlaan> Wizardling: Yea thats what I get
[03:51] <Wizardling> F**k
[03:51] <damo22> saiko: sudo ifdown <device> ; sudo ifup <device>
[03:51] <Jack_Sparrow> saiko: Are those two network cards in the windows box on a shared irq?
[03:51] <Wizardling> It's totally FUBAR isn't it?
[03:51] <saiko> Jack_Sparrow: but as i said there really isn't anything to configure, no harmful firefall turned on
[03:51] <tanlaan> Wizardling: Grr I think my entire iMac is going to shit
[03:51] <Icemasta[God] > To log in into root
[03:51] <Wizardling> if the same setting worked on 5.10...
[03:51] <saiko> Jack_Spar: yes
[03:51] <Icemasta[God] > You do "su password"
[03:51] <Icemasta[God] > Right?
[03:51] <saiko> damo22: thx for the tip
[03:52] <damo22> oh yes: saiko, must put on separate irq
[03:52] <jrib> !root > Icemasta[God]
[03:52] <damo22> on windows box
[03:52] <Overand> Icemasta[God] : no
[03:52] <jrib> Icemasta[God] : no need, use sudo instead
[03:52] <RichEd> can i ask a semi-off topic evolution PGP question ... just a quickie to clear up some ambiguity on an ubuntu forum post ?
[03:52] <Overand> Icemasta[God] : to become root, try sudo -s
[03:52] <Jack_Sparrow> saiko: I would use different brand cards in there or ones that do not share an interrupt
[03:52] <Overand> but-
[03:52] <tanlaan> Wizardling: Like my monitor flashes a yellow tint every once in awhile and sometimes stays yellow tinted.
[03:52] <Icemasta[God] > !root or sudo -s pass?
[03:52] <ubotu> I know nothing about root or sudo -s pass? - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[03:52] <Overand> make sure you NEED to be root
[03:52] <Wizardling> My old CRT iMacs (all of which refuse to work with 6.06 and only work using that fix with 5.10) work fine. I'm not junking them
[03:52] <saiko> damn, should go, thx everyone will look into it later, bye bye !
[03:52] <Overand> not having instaqnt access to root is like that for a reason
[03:52] <damo22> bye
[03:52] <jrib> Icemasta[God] : check your private messages from ubotu for a link to the wiki about using sudo
[03:52] <Overand> Icemasta[God] : just:  sudo -s
[03:53] <Wizardling> oh, and someone asked what's wrong with OSX - NOTHING! :-)
[03:53] <Overand> jrib: thanks
[03:53] <Icemasta[God] > Overand, yes, to do # make install
[03:53] <tanlaan> Wizarling: and Right now in console, the screen is shifted so at the bottoms I am missing one character and at the top im missing 2
[03:53] <Wizardling> It's just too slow on older G3 Macs for my tastes
[03:53] <Overand> Icemasta[God] : if you can get an app via the package manager, that's a better route.  make sure what you're compiling isn't available already
[03:53] <jrib> RichEd: best to just ask the question and if someone can help you out, they'll try
[03:53] <Wizardling> Panther is ok if you need MacOS, but I want better performance
[03:53] <RichEd> the forum says post User ID details into PGP security page ... surely I post Key ID details ??
[03:53] <Icemasta[God] > Overand, it's for WINE
[03:53] <Icemasta[God] > And it's the only way to install :/
[03:54] <Overand> Icemasta[God] : i'm pretty sure there's a wine package
[03:54] <Icemasta[God] > Really?
[03:54] <Overand> maybe in multiverse
[03:54] <Icemasta[God] > Well, it's to install one game
[03:54] <Overand> but i'm not positive
[03:54] <Overand> !wine
[03:54] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[03:54] <Overand> Icemasta[God] : hit that up
[03:54] <Wizardling> tanlaan - heh, well at least I can see everything in console... small mercy :-D
[03:55] <zalmoxes> my grub is corrupted
[03:55] <Icemasta[God] > Is it still "wine --version" ?
[03:55] <earthsound> what are some of the main differences btwn Gnome and KDE?
[03:56] <Jack_Sparrow> earthsound: Eye candy and gnome is a bit faster
[03:56] <Wizardling> tanlaan - have you found any sort of Mac compatibility list?
[03:56] <earthsound> in my limited experiences with linux, I've always used KDE...never used Gnome
[03:56] <JohnRobert> how can I apt-get remove a package and it's dependancies that it originally apt-got?
[03:56] <Wizardling> buggered if I can locate one
[03:56] <zalmoxes> my grub shows 3 kernels installed when i only have one, how do i fix this?
[03:56] <Jack_Sparrow> earthsound: I have also had more trouble keeping kde working than I have gnome
[03:56] <Jack_Sparrow> zalmoxes: those were just from updsates
[03:57] <tanlaan> Wizardling: No I don't understand why its not working
[03:57] <damo22> JohnRobert: i think there is a package called apt-depends might help
[03:57] <Jack_Sparrow> zalmoxes:    gksudo gedit  /boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:57] <zalmoxes> Jack_Sparrow: then?
[03:57] <Lattyware> zalmoxes: Edit it as neccicary.
[03:57] <Lattyware> It's well commented
[03:58] <zalmoxes> ok
[03:58] <Jack_Sparrow> earthsound: I always used KDE myself but Gnome keeps on running...
[03:58] <Icemasta[God] > ok
[03:58] <Icemasta[God] > Do, to install WoW under ubuntu for exemple
[03:58] <Icemasta[God] > so*
[03:58] <Icemasta[God] > Would it work with CDs?
[03:58] <Jack_Sparrow> zalmoxes: first.. make a backup copy... then remove or remark out the kernels you dont want displayed
[03:58] <Icemasta[God] > DVDs actually
[03:58] <damo22> JohnRobert: sorry its called apt-rdepends
[03:59] <earthsound> Jack_Sparrow: what problems did you have w/ KDE?
[03:59] <Sakireth> Hey, i tried installing kbfx but it says the following:
[03:59] <Sakireth> *** YOU'RE USING automake (GNU automake) 1.4-p6.
[03:59] <Sakireth> *** KDE requires automake 1.6
[03:59] <frogzoo> zloc: 'sudo update-grub'
[03:59] <frogzoo> zalmoxes: 'sudo update-grub' --  damn tab
[04:00] <Jack_Sparrow> earthsound:  I crashed it a few times... Kubuntu more than knoppix or Mepis...  But repeat I crashed it
[04:00] <damo22> sudo apt-get install apt-rdepends && apt-rdepends -r <package> will list all dependencies of a package
[04:01] <earthsound> the last time I used KDE (in gentoo) I never had any problems...even with the newer, unstable packages
[04:01] <zalmoxes> frogzoo: ok i'll try that
[04:01] <earthsound> Jack_Sparrow: was it just one thing, or a number of problems that would cause it to crash?
[04:02] <Sakireth> anyone? the chat seems rather empty but i get no answer. am i being ignored?
[04:02] <Jack_Sparrow> earthsound: It was more my sata drives and pci-e and tweaking that hosed it up..
[04:02] <mlehrer> maybe
[04:02] <earthsound> Sakireth: did you try installing automake 1.6?
[04:02] <Icemasta[God] > What is # (commands) in terminal for?
[04:02] <damo22> sorry, correction apt-rdepends -r -s <package> will list all dependencies of a package
[04:03] <Sakireth> earthsound: err.. how?
[04:03] <drbashir_> whats the text only browser called again?
[04:03] <IAskew> lynx/links drbashir
[04:03] <Lynoure> drbashir_: lynx, w3m?
[04:03] <earthsound> ah. I have an SATA drive now that I didn't have before
[04:03] <nywass> hi all
[04:03] <drbashir_> cheers
[04:03] <nywass> i've giproblem with the wine application
[04:03] <FloK> is there no acrobat reader pkg?
[04:04] <Jack_Sparrow> nywass:  There is a #Wine channel
[04:04] <zalmoxes> vmlinuz-2.6.15-26-386 doesnt work,      error: inconsistent file system,        version 2.6.15-25-386 works.
[04:04] <nywass> Jack_Sparrow: i know but it looks totally empty
[04:04] <Icemasta[God] > Overand, thanks a lot about tha tlink, but there is a problem
[04:04] <nywass> the application is working fine , but the charset is wrong
[04:04] <Sakireth> earthsound: err.. how?
[04:04] <Icemasta[God] > Like, 95% of the games on WINE requires a fix
[04:05] <nywass> it looks like chineese charset
[04:05] <Overand> Icemasta[God] : yes, c'est la vie
[04:05] <Overand> Icemasta[God] : consider buying cedega or whatever their current thing is
[04:05] <Icemasta[God] > But those are all compiled
[04:05] <Icemasta[God] > Overand, I am more tempted to download it >.>
[04:05] <damo22> Icemasta: you dont need to play games really :P
[04:05] <Icemasta[God] > Or get teh CVS
[04:05] <Jack_Sparrow> FloK: Do you have a link to a pdf page ?
[04:05] <earthsound> Sakireth: if it's a .deb package, I believe the correct syntax is: sudo dpkg install [package.deb]
[04:06] <Sakireth> earthsound: I don't think that's so good for your system... like, ubuntu gets shipped with automake 1.4 and for a reason, i think.
[04:06] <Mc_Fly87> re all
[04:06] <Mc_Fly87> bon besoin d'aide encore une fois
[04:06] <FloK> Jack_Sparrow, a link, why?
[04:06] <Sakireth> my*

[04:07] <damo22> sudo sudo dpkg -i <package.deb>
[04:07] <damo22> oops too many sudos
[04:07] <Mc_Fly87> oups sorry :)
[04:07] <Jack_Sparrow> FloK:  I was sure I could read pdf's
[04:08] <shd> apt-get install blt yields "dpkg: ../../src/packages.c:191: process_queue: Assertion `dependtry <= 4' failed" on 6.06 LTS server. Any idea what the problem is?
[04:10] <shd> ah. wrong channel. sorry.
[04:10] <Jack_Sparrow> FloK:  synaptic shows a pdf reader... do a search for PDF and not acrobat

[04:11] <mwe> odd. my usb pen used to auto mount at /meda/sda1. now it mounts as /media/usbdisk.
[04:11] <damo22> wow i found a hardware problem.... when my laptop lcd is dimmed, my soundcard outputs a dirty signal
[04:12] <earthsound> Sakireth: automake 1.9.6 is a year old...
[04:12] <damo22> anyone with a laptop, try putting lcd max brightness ... sound is cleaner
[04:12] <Jack_Sparrow> mwe: my flash drive has always been usbdisk and never sda1
[04:12] <FloK> Jack_Sparrow, ok but i want pdf
[04:12] <AngryElf> why are the ATI drivers so darn stubborn? -- i ran the ati installer, built the packages and the kernel mods, lsmod shows fglrx is loaded, fglrx is in the xorg.conf file, yet still fglrxinfo says it's not loaded correctly, any ideas?
[04:12] <summet> hi all i need to cut a single from a file
[04:12] <mwe> Jack_Sparrow: it's not a big deal. do you know where the name is controlled though?
[04:12] <summet> and redirected 2 some other file
[04:13] <Dr_willis> AngryElf,  i followed the !ATI wiki. i THINK i had to reboot to get them to load right.
[04:13] <Jack_Sparrow> FloK: You want pdf and pdf is in the repos if you search for PDF
[04:13] <damo22> angryelf, i think theres a bug with the current one, search the ubuntu forums for a solution
[04:13] <AngryElf> Dr_willis, i did reboot
[04:13] <Sakireth> earthsound: then i think the tool detects it wrongly
[04:13] <zalmoxes> how to update my kernel?
[04:13] <Dr_willis> AngryElf, bummer.. so much for the 'standard windows answer' :P
[04:13] <Jack_Sparrow> mwe... No dont kow how where it selects the name
[04:13] <AngryElf> Dr_willis, my day job :(
[04:14] <harmental> does anybody know if the (k)ubuntu team is planning ot release un update of conky in the repos?
[04:14] <Icemasta[God] > Hmmm, I got ANOTHER question XD
[04:14] <Ackeubu_> hey guys, it seems as if my flash media controller is supported from linux kernel 2.6.17. my dapper runns on 2.6.15, is there an "easy" way to update to the newer kernel?
[04:14] <Icemasta[God] > It's more WINE related, but anyway
[04:14] <mwe> harmental: what is it?
[04:14] <zalmoxes> !conky
[04:14] <ubotu> I know nothing about conky - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[04:14] <djon> salut a tous
[04:15] <Icemasta[God] > You HAVE to uninstall WINE and re-install wine everytime you install a game?

[04:15] <zalmoxes> Icemasta[God] : you dont have reinstall wine
[04:15] <Icemasta[God] > 2. Remove any older version of Wine you have installed.
[04:15] <Icemasta[God] > Oh -.-

[04:17] <Jack_Sparrow> billybennett: What is the error when you try to delete them?
[04:18] <Jack_Sparrow> billybennett: Is it a permissions issue?
[04:18] <harmental> is linux kernel 2.6.17 available for ubuntu??
[04:18] <harisund> Is there a seperate channel for 64 bit Ubuntu?
[04:18] <GreenCult> hi all
[04:18] <billybennett> Jack_Sparrow, I cant right click delete
[04:18] <zalmoxes> Icemasta[God] : if the game requires you to patch the wine files, then you have to reinstall wine all over again every time you install a new game.
[04:18] <Davo_Dinkum> im installing ubuntu onto an ibm thinkpad, but it hangs during installation on the "Uncompressing Linux... Ok, booting the kernel." screen. what should i do?
[04:19] <Icemasta[God] > But my other setings will stay the same for my other games, right/
[04:19] <fyrestrtr> Davo_Dinkum: what model thinkpad?
[04:19] <Icemasta[God] > Or applications, for that matter

[04:19] <mvhenten> It is broken since I last time upgraded.

[04:23] <billybennett> Jack_Sparrow, its saying everything is read-only
[04:23] <Jack_Sparrow> billybennett: Close it down, I didnt mean leave ... :)
[04:23] <zanpakuto> just curious during what program is run when partioning during installation?
[04:23] <billybennett> Jack_Sparrow, :P :P
[04:23] <T`ch> zanpakuto, gparted
[04:23] <Jack_Sparrow> billybennett: then it is possibly ntfs formatted now?

[04:25] <zanpakuto> T`ch, hmmm. it has an ncurses interface, oh well.
[04:25] <uwo> q1: how do i install fonts in gnome? is there sth i can do with a bunch of .pfm and .afm files?
[04:26] <Sakireth> is there some package to install all needed -dev libraries so i can compile everything? This is my question.
[04:26] <Jack_Sparrow> uwo: gnome-look.org  open theme manager and drop the tar.gz onto it
[04:26] <uwo> jack_sparrow: tnx.
[04:26] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[04:27] <T`ch> Sakireth, you dont want to do that.. it will fill up ur harddrive
[04:27] <Jack_Sparrow> Sakireth: Look up build-essentials
[04:27] <T`ch> Sakireth, always find which package you want and install
[04:27] <T`ch> yea build-essentials i a good start
[04:27] <T`ch> hehe
[04:27] <fyrestrtr> Davo_Dinkum: I am, what model thinkpad is it?
[04:27] <T`ch> anyone use firefox 32-bit on amd64?
[04:27] <T`ch> my fonts look a bit weirdish on 32-bit.. like a bit colored or not properly anti-aliased or something
[04:28] <Wizardling> Is the Opera browser available on Ubuntu? Their site detects I'm on a Mac and I cannot get any non-Mac info :-(
[04:28] <T`ch> Wizardling, are you?
[04:28] <fyrestrtr> Wizardling: yes it is, its available from the canonical commerical repos. I am using it right now.
[04:28] <jrib> !opera
[04:28] <ubotu> opera is an advanced and free (only as in price) web browser.  Install it via Applications->Add/Remove..., making sure that "Show commercial applications" is checked. For more info on opera please see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OperaBrowser
[04:28] <Sakireth> ........ well no, and i will look into build-essentials - but as far as I know it only installs GCC and automake, i mean all the basic libs and KDE libs, X11 libs and... well, i just want to be able to run ./configure, then make, make install, and have it installed - without hassle.
[04:29] <Wizardling> thanks
[04:29] <Wizardling> what version of Opera is it?
[04:29] <Jack_Sparrow> Sakireth: good luck with that
[04:29] <Sakireth> Jack_Sparrow: Whaddaya mean? all the other distro's do that just fine.
[04:30] <Raito> How do I change the master boot record? I copied my ubuntu partition from /dev/sda2 to /dev/sda4. I want to change the master boot record to sda4 and then delete sda2. I did this so I could add the old partition space to my extended, how do I change the master boot record?
[04:30] <Davo_Dinkum> fyrestrtr: link here: http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/quickPath.do?quickPathEntry=1171vc2&sitestyle=lenovo
[04:30] <AngryElf> where would i find errors relating to /etc/fstab and the commands within?
[04:31] <Jack_Sparrow> AngryElf: what errors on what type of drives?
[04:31] <AngryElf> nfs shares that aren't getting auto-mounted, but mount -a mount's them fine
[04:32] <longbean> installing kde 3.5.4 apps on ubuntu without uninstalling gnome? possible? easy? what's the repository to use?
[04:32] <Jack_Sparrow> AngryElf: Dosent the diskmounter script take care of that automatically..
[04:32] <doraemon81> hello, may i noe how can i view chinese (unicode) in gedit?
[04:32] <Sakireth> Seriously guys, isn't that possible? All the other distro's (Gentoo, Arch Linux, Debian, others) do that just fine. If that isn't possible inside Ubuntu, then it should be fixed, since this is a missing part of Linux
[04:32] <Raito> longbean: sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop
[04:32] <AngryElf> diskmounter script?
[04:32] <Jack_Sparrow> longbean: I install kde apps all the time..
[04:32] <pitti_> :quit
[04:32] <damo22> angryelf: are you talking about mounting upon bootup?
[04:32] <mwe> longbean: deb http://kubuntu.org/packages/kde-latest dapper main
[04:32] <Jack_Sparrow> longbean: k3b, konversation etc
[04:33] <Raito> you can have gnome and KDE at the same time
[04:33] <AngryElf> damo22, yes
[04:33] <longbean> yes, but the main ubuntu repository only has kde3.5.2
[04:33] <Jack_Sparrow> Raito: You dont need the kubuntu desktop..
[04:33] <Raito> Jack_Sparrow: You don't?
[04:33] <npster> What derivative of Ubuntu should I use for a very old Toshiba Satellite ?
[04:33] <damo22> angryelf: its possible that portmap isnt being loaded in the right order with mount script
[04:33] <fyrestrtr> Davo_Dinkum: look it up on thinkwiki -- see if there are any known issues.
[04:34] <jrib> Sakireth: if you want all dev packages to compile everything then you just install all the dev packages in all of the repositories :)  However, you may be more interested in first installing build-essential and then doing 'apt-get build-dep package_name' to get the needed deps for a package
[04:34] <Jack_Sparrow> Raito: Do you want to just run some of the apps or KDE as in the desktop manager?
[04:34] <Raito> Jack_Sparrow: Oh, I was meaning KDE as the desktop manager without getting rid of gnome >_<
[04:34] <Jack_Sparrow> !diskmounter
[04:34] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions  -  See also !fuse
[04:34] <Sakireth> jrib: The problem is, when a package is not in the repository, deps can't be calculated - so compiling something without a package, would not be possible...
[04:35] <jrib> Sakireth: how do you do it in debian?
[04:35] <damo22> angryelf: sudo dpkg-reconfigure portmap
[04:35] <fyrestrtr> Raito: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[04:35] <Jack_Sparrow> Raito: you can have both and select yes..
[04:35] <Sakireth> jrib: ./configure, make, make install
[04:35] <azureal> lo again; random Q-- is gdebi useful at all?
[04:35] <longbean> mwe: thanks
[04:35] <jrib> Sakireth: I mean, how do you install the dependencies?
[04:35] <Raito> Jack_Sparrow: I apologize, anyways that is what I do anyway
[04:35] <azureal> or is gdebi obsolete (because of apt)
[04:35] <Sakireth> jrib: whaddaya mean?
[04:35] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[04:35] <Raito> How do I change the master boot record? I copied my ubuntu partition from /dev/sda2 to /dev/sda4. I want to change the master boot record to sda4 and then delete sda2. I did this so I could add the old partition space to my extended, how do I change the master boot record?
[04:36] <mwe> longbean: yw. add it to the end of /etc/apt/sources.list and sudo apt-get update
[04:36] <Jack_Sparrow> Raito: That is tricky...
[04:36] <Raito> Jack_Sparrow: Uh-oh, how would you do it though?
[04:36] <npster> What should I use Ubuntu, Xubuntu or Kubuntu for an old notebook that has 32 or 64 MB of RAM and 4GB of disk space, I have no idea about the graphics card. Oh yeah and it is a Pentium II ?
[04:36] <longbean> mwe: i'm an ex-debian user ;) I can take it from here :)
[04:36] <Sakireth> jrib: Anyways, installing all the libs doesn't fill up your hard drive, righty?
[04:36] <Sakireth> right*
[04:36] <mwe> longbean: ok good then
[04:37] <Jack_Sparrow> Raito: I would try  the super grub repair disk and see if it will not setup both 2 and 4 then delte
[04:37] <JackONeill> I've install xubuntu a while back, but I just installed gnome - can i swap back? if so what do I type?
[04:37] <Raito> Jack_Sparrow: What is the super grub repair disk? Is there no way to do it with the ubuntu liveCD?
[04:37] <Dr_willis> JackONeill,  at the login screen theres a menu item to pick what desktop to use.
[04:37] <damo22> angryelf: sudo dpkg-reconfigure nfs-common
[04:37] <jrib> Sakireth: depends on the size of your hard drive, I have no idea how much all of them would take up.  The README files usually list the dependencies needed
[04:37] <JackONeill> Dr_willis, not with the xubuntu logon screen
[04:38] <Jack_Sparrow> Raito: I dont think the live will do what you want..
[04:38] <Dr_willis> JackONeill,  switch to the gdm login screen then.. and tell the xubuntu guys to get with the program. :P or they may tell ya "dude its right THERRE!" :P
[04:38] <Raito> JackONeill: You can with the xubuntu logon screen, they both use gdm and you can configure it in gnome to have the xubuntu theme
[04:38] <Sakireth> jrib: I don't mean the dependecies but the libs. you know, when you install a KDE app on a non-ubuntu distro you compile it. on ubuntu that isn't possible. i mean how to get that to work?
[04:38] <Dr_willis> Raito,  i was thinking that also.
[04:38] <Stonekeeper> hi. anyone know where lpadmin lives to add cups printers? cheers.
[04:39] <JackONeill> I don't see an opton Dr_willis , Raito
[04:39] <damo22> sakireth: it is possible to compile kde apps on ubuntu
[04:39] <JackONeill> Honestly!
[04:39] <Raito> Jack_Sparrow: Oh my, so where might I find this super grub disk? It better not be a floppy, I don't have a floppy drive
[04:39] <birdie_> how do i set my screen res >1024*768? there isnt 1280*1024 in the drop down list but both my monitor and graphics card support it
[04:39] <ubuntu-newbie> hello all; my ubuntu machine (next to this laptop) suddenly has no network connection anymore. ifconfig also tells me no inet addr for the eth0 device. but i hadn"t changed anything! how can i do a dhcp request in linux? i found something called dhcpcd but that is not installed on my system...
[04:40] <Sakireth> damo22: I know but you need the libs. which i need to install, but i don't know how >_<. i wanna be able to compile every app on ubuntu like is possible on Arch and Gentoo and ALL OTHER DISTRO'S
[04:40] <node_runner> anyone here have fglrx drivers working on a radeon mobile card? (i'm running on a 9600 M10 from a thinkpad t42)
[04:40] <Dr_willis> node_runner,  they work on my x200m
[04:40] <Jack_Sparrow> Raito: http://adrian15.raulete.net/grub/tiki-view_forum_thread.php?forumId=1&comments_parentId=9 link in bottom right corner
[04:40] <damo22> sakireth: you need all "-dev" packages
[04:40] <Raito> JackONeill: Uhh, how come? I did it before. The xubuntu login theme is just a gdm theme so you can switch to it
[04:40] <Sakireth> like, when you run make, just let it run and let it get the job done
[04:40] <Sakireth> damo22: how<?
[04:40] <jrib> Sakireth: it's the same as any other distro.  Install build-essential to get the basic stuff, install the dependencies you need, ./configure, make, make install.
[04:40] <node_runner> willis: did you use the ati installer or one of the pre-build debs?
[04:40] <damo22> sakireth: in /etc/apt/sources.list you need deb-src listings
[04:41] <Dr_willis> node_runner,  i followed the !ati wiki
[04:41] <ubuntu-newbie> i do have an inet6 addr, however, but that is just a bunch of hex seperated by ::'s
[04:41] <Raito> Jack_Sparrow: An error occured in the database query
[04:41] <Sakireth> damo22: :D and then?
[04:41] <node_runner> (looking now)
[04:41] <ucordes> !xgl
[04:41] <damo22> sakireth: then sudo apt-get install blah.deb
[04:41] <ubotu> Compiz (compositing (window) manager) and XGL (Xserver architecture layered on top of OpenGL) howto at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompositeManager XGL+compiz help in #ubuntu-xgl  See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems
[04:41] <Jack_Sparrow> Raito: Link is in the bottom right corner
[04:41] <Sakireth> damo22: :D and where to get the listings?
[04:41] <Jack_Sparrow> Raito: it still works
[04:41] <damo22> sakireth: then sudo apt-get install blah source package i mean
[04:41] <longbean> sakireth: no easy way beyond trying to make sure you have the right development libraries for the app you're trying to compile
[04:41] <Raito> oh, which one is it?
[04:42] <node_runner> I keep getting problems with my libGL.so lib. missing symbol....
[04:42] <damo22> sakireth: try www.ubuntulinux.nl look for source-o-matic
[04:42] <damo22> sakireth: you can generate a current sources.list
[04:43] <jrib> Sakireth: you can take a look at auto-apt for what you want but I never had any luck.  Really, you should stick to the repos unless you really need to compile a few apps, and then once you get their dependencies installed you never have to worry about it again
[04:43] <Jack_Sparrow> Raito: Do you have a windows machine there.. if so use the zip with the iso, or select the tar.gz
[04:43] <birdie_> how do i set my screen res >1024*768? there isnt 1280*1024 in the drop down list but both my monitor and graphics card support it
[04:43] <jrib> !fixres > birdie_
[04:43] <Raito> Raito: Oh, the sgd_blahblahblah, thing. I have xubuntu now, but I clicked the ZIP >_<, that won't kill me would it?
[04:43] <ubuntu-newbie> ok i think my ip4 is gone, when i check in network tools in system/administration i see no ip4 for eth0, but very much for the loopback device. how would i reinstall ip4?
[04:44] <birdie_> thanks jrib
[04:44] <tuxtux> ciao
[04:44] <damo22> birdie: make sure you backup your old xorg.conf, then do sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:44] <Jack_Sparrow> birdie_: What video card and have you installed the drivers for it
[04:44] <Sakireth> jrib: weird that it is so difficult in ubuntu while in almost every other distro you can just make install and let it do the rest, you just sit back and relax.
[04:44] <Jack_Sparrow> birdie_: else you are running vesa mode
[04:44] <node_runner> newbie: the eth0 interface just isn't up. there is no "ipv4" package to install. it's built into your kernel.
[04:44] <birdie_> im running a 6800 GS
[04:45] <Jack_Sparrow> 6600 here
[04:45] <node_runner> if you are on dhcp, try running: sudo ifup eth0 or sudo dhclient eth0
[04:45] <Jack_Sparrow> !nvidia
[04:45] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:45] <jrib> Sakireth: that is probably because you already have the dependencies you need installed
[04:45] <birdie_> and i followed a general driver install howto
[04:46] <longbean> ubuntu-newbie: administration->networking is what you actually want i think
[04:46] <Sakireth> jrib: yes and now is my question, how to get the same on ubuntu? install all -dev packages? HOW?
[04:46] <harisund> For those of you who have tried virtual machines, which do you think is faster? (as in better emulation?) Qemu or VMware?
[04:46] <ubuntu-newbie> node_runner: ok; the fact the there is no ip4 in my network tools means that the dhcp request was not answered, i suppose? i can happily exclude hardwareproblems as a suse distro does the work as it issupposed to; thats why my question: can i do a dhcp request in a terminal?
[04:46] <damo22> harisund, vmware is better in my opinion
[04:47] <Jack_Sparrow> birdie_: If you go to a terminal and type glxgears -printfps what do you get..
[04:47] <harisund> damo22: hmmm...ok I am going to take your opinion for it .. :)
[04:47] <jrib> Sakireth: I wasn't really serious, but you would do: sudo apt-get install '.*-dev'
[04:47] <ubuntu-newbie> longbean: that is where i was! sorry for the incorrect description
[04:48] <Jack_Sparrow> jrib: :)
[04:48] <spegel> How do I replace a file in wine?
[04:48] <Raito> Is it possible to boot an iso from a usbdrive? How would I make a 1:1 copy?
[04:48] <spegel> Need to replace a .exe, but cant find the path at all
[04:48] <harisund> Also, this is a question in general. How good or ok is it to install packages manually? I am talking about stuff like the latest Adobe Acrobat, RealPlayer, Firefox ... directly from .tar.gz or .bin file and use checkinstall to get a .deb perhaps ...
[04:48] <harisund> spegel: need to replace a what?
[04:48] <birdie_> empty file
[04:48] <Sakireth> jrib: Oh. but if Ubuntu doesn't support it, that means Ubuntu doesn't have all features Linux has, which means Ubuntu isn't linux-compatible so well
[04:48] <birdie_> im just isntalling legacy drivers
[04:48] <beerockxs> how can I reset the gnome font settings to the defaults?
[04:48] <jrib> Sakireth: what do you mean by "it"?
[04:48] <spegel> a .exe, need to crack frozen throne because wine cant handle the cd-check
[04:49] <harisund> Sakireth: what feature isn't available?
[04:49] <harisund> spegel: do you mean the file extension is a .exe? Then just search for all .exe files on your hard disk?
[04:49] <spegel> Nothing comes up
[04:49] <harisund> spegel: how are you searching for .exe files?
[04:49] <spegel> file browser
[04:49] <spegel> search
[04:49] <Jack_Sparrow> troll
[04:50] <hellokthulu> Howdy, all...
[04:50] <harisund> spegel: oh ok ... I thought you were using teh command line.
[04:50] <spegel> Nah just switched from windows :D
[04:50] <hellokthulu> please help my failing memory -- there was a site with info on how to turn off/on services in a nice GUI way... sorry :-(
[04:51] <jrib> hellokthulu: install bum
[04:51] <longbean> spegel: files installed by wine reside in the .wine directory located in your home directory. it's a hidden directory
[04:51] <harisund> spegel: If you want to use the terminal try find . -name '*.exe'
[04:51] <hellokthulu> bum, eh?  Or was that an insult :-)
[04:51] <Bison> hello
[04:51] <spegel> oh thanks :)
[04:52] <harisund> jrib: does bum (hellokthulu bum is boot up manager) remove symlinks?
[04:52] <spegel> view -> view hidden files solved it :)
[04:52] <Bison> Anyone know how I can connect to a MSSQL server without using windows?
[04:52] <jrib> harisund: I don't know
[04:52] <Davo_Dinkum> bye all
[04:52] <node_runner> bison: mysql -u <username> -h <hostname> -p
[04:52] <harisund> jrib: the last time I tried bum it only showed me the services and allowed me to stop them,  but didn't really allow me to delete symlinks.

[04:53] <Bison> node_runner: that will connect to mssql?
[04:53] <jo_> no flashplayer
[04:53] <jrib> jo_: it is flashplugin-nonfree now in Dapper, make sure you have the multiverse repository installed
[04:53] <Bison> hc: check winehq.com
[04:53] <ompaul> Sakireth, have you enabled the sources for sources in your /etc/apt/sources.list file?
[04:53] <Stian> Greetings, can I install Ubuntu 6.06 remotely?
[04:54] <ompaul> !install > Stian
[04:54] <node_runner> bison: ah sorry, i thought you mean mysql. Do you know python? you could use the python mssql api and just go into a python shell and run queries.
[04:54] <jo_> multiverse repository i hqave but stil no good
[04:54] <jo_> Couldn't find package flashplugin-nonfree
[04:54] <ompaul> Stian, all methods for installing are on url sent to you by the channel bot
[04:54] <Stian> I've got this server with a busted graphicscard
[04:54] <node_runner> bison: but off the top of my head, I don't know of any MSSQL clients for linux. Try searching sourceforge
[04:54] <Bison> node_runner: Yes, but that might be a little overkill
[04:54] <jrib> jo_: can you put the contents of your /etc/apt/sources.list on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org and give us a link to your post?
[04:54] <Stian> I'm allready installed thank you
[04:54] <Bison> ah, good plan
[04:55] <beerockxs> how can I reset the gnome font settings to the defaults?
[04:55] <Stian> ompaul, okay, however, the bot was slooow, so I got the message long after
[04:55] <hellokthulu> Okay, I can't find 'bum' in Synaptic... does it need a special server?
[04:55] <longbean> jo_: did you run apt-get update after you added the source?
[04:56] <jrib> !universe > hellokthulu
[04:56] <jo_> je ssend it
[04:56] <jo_> yes
[04:56] <node_runner> ok it looks like I might have a libGL conflict. libGL.so is installed both by the fglrx driver and by libgl1-mesa-dev
[04:56] <jrib> jo_: url?
[04:56] <node_runner> I'm guessing I need to purge libgl1-mesa-dev
[04:56] <jo_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20294
[04:56] <rcmiv> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20294
[04:56] <ompaul> !info bum
[04:56] <ubotu> bum: graphical runlevel editor. In repository universe, is optional. Version 2.1.5-1build1 (dapper), package size 74 kB, installed size 484 kB
[04:57] <ompaul> hellokthulu, it needs universe
[04:57] <Seveas> ompaul, for info on your bum, get a few mirrors
[04:57] <hellokthulu> thanks!
[04:57] <ubuntu-newbie> fyi: how to request dhcp address: use command dhclient
[04:57] <spanglesontoast> hey does anyone know why when compiling gcc it spits this out ? xgcc: Internal error: Killed (program cc1)
[04:57] <ompaul> !mulitiverse > hellokthulu
[04:57] <ubotu> I know nothing about mulitiverse  - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[04:57] <ompaul> !multiverse > hellokthulu
[04:57] <Seveas> spanglesontoast, because you found a  bug in gcc
[04:57] <ompaul> hellokthulu, check the message from the bot
[04:57] <jrib> jo_: did you do what longbean suggested?
[04:57] <Simon17> Die Alles entscheidende frage ist und bleibt wird beim ubuntu setup automatisch ein smp kernel installiert wenn ein athlon x2 eingebaut ist

[04:58] <jo_> yes did that
[04:58] <bina> hi, how do you find out the version of the QT libraries you have installed?
[04:58] <Simon17> i have an athlon x2 cpu and want to install ubuntu! i need a smp kernel ! do ubuntu automatical install this smp kernel?
[04:58] <kaharas> hi all... someone knews a video player who runs without X server?
[04:58] <nf_linux> man, im lost
[04:58] <harisund>  /gone
[04:58] <jo_> Simon17>jes
[04:59] <Simon17> oh great
[04:59] <nf_linux> I've got all my compile packages installed, but I can't compile anything :(
[04:59] <Simon17> thanks for help
[04:59] <jrib> jo_: ok, can you try now again: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[04:59] <erUSUL> Simon17: afaik the ubuntu default kernel detects smp and use it if aviable
[04:59] <jo_> sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[04:59] <jo_> Reading package lists... Done
[04:59] <jo_> Building dependency tree... Done
[04:59] <jo_> E: Couldn't find package flashplugin-nonfree
[04:59] <kaharas> I would like to play a video without have to start the X server... just to save some ram...
[04:59] <node_runner> kaharas: im not sure that would be possible.
[04:59] <ompaul> Stian, on that page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/Netboot thats the closest to what you want that I can see - it is on the first one of those links
[04:59] <erUSUL> !paste > jo_
[04:59] <jo_> sorry
[05:00] <erUSUL> !sources > jo_
[05:00] <jrib> jo_: what architecture are you using?
[05:00] <jo_> urbuntu amd64bit
[05:00] <Seveas> jo_, then you're out of luck
[05:00] <jrib> jo_: flash isn't availabe for 64bit I believe
[05:00] <kaharas> node_runner, i read somewhere it is, but i cannot remember how...
[05:00] <nf_linux> I don't understand this at all...i've got gcc installed, and when I try to compile aterm, it's convinced I don't have anything to compile with :(
[05:00] <node_runner> kaharas: try running inside of a lightweight desktop instead of the default gnome, that will clear some ram.
[05:00] <Seveas> there is no flash for 64 bits
[05:00] <jo_> gr
[05:00] <jo_> gentoo have it
[05:00] <frogzoo> nf_linux: 'which gcc'
[05:01] <kaharas> i've still tried fluxbox...
[05:01] <kaharas> and it uses too much ram
[05:01] <nf_linux> frogzoo: bith 3.3 and 4.0
[05:01] <jo_> nu skype no  flash  gr
[05:01] <frogzoo> nf_linux: I mean run the command
[05:01] <longbean> damn adobe. no love for linux there
[05:01] <scifi> hi gus, a friend of mine has ubuntu installed, but cant get dvd playback working. it works on mine, but i cant remember what i installed to get it working. can someone remind me?
[05:01] <jo_> gentoo has this all
[05:01] <node_runner> kaharas: hmmm, how much ram do you have? is that slowing your vide performance?
[05:01] <jrib> jo_: it's easier to just use 32bit ubuntu if you want that stuff
[05:01] <ompaul> !chroot > jo_
[05:01] <ubotu> I know nothing about chroot  - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[05:01] <nf_linux> damn...nothing
[05:01] <kaharas> 128 MB...
[05:01] <nf_linux> ok..maybe it isn't installed...
[05:01] <ompaul> jo_, they are 32 bit aps read the message from the bot
[05:01] <frogzoo> jo_: yes, gentoo  has later stuff, we know this
[05:01] <beerockxs> how can I reset the gnome font settings to the defaults?
[05:02] <kaharas> and when i try to run a avi video i see it bad
[05:02] <jo_> oke thanks for the help
[05:02] <kaharas> else if i've installed all the codecs and filters needed
[05:02] <Stian> Hmm, netboot seems horrible, someone needs to make it so it's possible to install over ssh og even vnc
[05:02] <scifi> !dvd
[05:02] <ubotu> See http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html. Libdvdcss can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[05:02] <nf_linux> thats weird, because in synaptic it shows both being installed
[05:03] <node_runner> kaharas: the thing is, even if some app played video without relying on x for a framebuffer device, it would still have to have it's own built in X-like display system.
[05:03] <ompaul> Stian, well you did not see that one - there might be other stuff in there thankfully I have access to the boxes I work on :)
[05:03] <fredrin> anyone here have played with drupal and exim4?
[05:03] <Casanova> Suddenly apt-get install isnt working http://pastebin.ca/126489
[05:03] <Casanova> can someone help?
[05:03] <kaharas> node_runner... this means the ram usage will be the same?
[05:04] <hellokthulu> Anyone know how to set up Ubuntu so it automagically log in a specific user?
[05:04] <jdier> which is the preferred ftp gui for ubuntu?
[05:04] <Casanova> hellokthulu: configure GDM
[05:04] <node_runner> kaharas: pretty much. unless you happen to find some project where some crazy guy decided to code his entire frame-buffer device completely in assembly. ;)
[05:04] <Casanova> hellokthulu: sudo gdmsetup
[05:04] <Casanova> jdier: gftp ?
[05:04] <hellokthulu> Casanova: Thanks!
[05:05] <Casanova> can someone help me with my problem :(
[05:05] <node_runner> kaharas: how much swap space do you have?
[05:05] <kaharas> 300 MB
[05:05] <ompaul> hellokthulu, system administration login window
[05:05] <Stian> ompaul, well, I am just commenting, there should be should way of install :P The vga port on this server is busted, so it can't install crap
[05:05] <kaharas> but the image is realy noisy
[05:05] <hellokthulu> ompaul: Thanks!
[05:05] <rcmiv> Casanova, sudo?
[05:05] <Casanova> rcmiv: yes i did use sudo
[05:05] <node_runner> kaharas: do you get a low framerate?
[05:06] <ompaul> Stian, how busted - does it go all "fuzzy" as you start or is it missing completely?
[05:06] <kaharas> yes, and the frame that the player show are really bad
[05:06] <ompaul> Casanova, ehh wrt your paste - filesystem is read only -- problem booting?
[05:06] <Stian> ompaul, the server beeps when it starts up, and there's never any image from the server, no signal, so I guess the chip is gone
[05:06] <Stian> otherwise the server works fine
[05:07] <Casanova> hmmm let me try rebooting then :|
[05:07] <ompaul> Stian, check the back of it for a second vga output
[05:07] <node_runner> hmmm. what codec are you using? if you use something really efficient, like ogg theora, you might have better luck than avi. can you re-encode the source file into something else?
[05:07] <Stian> ompaul, there is none, and we tried putting in another card, but it's some pci64 or whatever. damned new technology
[05:07] <ompaul> Stian, try f2 / f12 f10 for access to bios just for laughs
[05:07] <ompaul> Stian, its digital out
[05:08] <Stian> ompaul, my friend (the owner) has tried just about everything
[05:08] <dmd_> When doing "apt-get install thy" , for some reason apt fails to install the files in /etc/thy/ and /etc/default ... what might cause this?
[05:08] <dmd_> package is http://packages.ubuntulinux.org/cgi-bin/search_contents.pl?searchmode=filelist&word=thy&version=dapper&arch=i386
[05:08] <Frem> I need to connect to a computer windows computer on the network using samba, but nothing shows up in "smb:///". I can see the computer if I use smbtree from the command line, though.
[05:08] <Stian> and he works with hardware, i'm just a software gimp
[05:08] <ompaul> Stian, make the monitor talk to the analogue out
[05:08] <AnAnt> what is new in ubuntu 6.06.1 ?
[05:08] <rsk> AnAnt: just an updated livecd
[05:09] <kaharas> node_runner i'm using vlc codecs...
[05:09] <node_runner> is anyone here running the xorg-fglrx drivers *without* having libgl1-mesa installed?
[05:09] <whoppix> hey ho all :) i have a little problem with playing dvds, i installed the libdvdcss package for ubuntu, and i can play dvds with xine, but neither totem nor vlc are able to play dvds. vlc outputs the following error msg: dvdread demuxer error: DVDRead cannot open source: main input error: no suitable access module for `dvd://'. thanks for help how to get it to work in advance :)
[05:09] <Stian> ompaul, it's actual server hardware, so there's nothing fancy on it
[05:09] <node_runner> kaharas: I'm not sure what to tell you, other than to check and make sure your video drivers are working ok.
[05:09] <ompaul> Stian, and no two ports on the back ---- new video card 30
[05:09] <erUSUL> AnAnt: the updates you've been receiving via update-manager in cdrom
[05:09] <kaharas> ok :) ty a lot... see you :)
[05:09] <fiXXXerMet> I've got the Ubuntu Desktop install CD here.  When I choose "Start or Install Ubuntu", it always starts Ubuntu into a live-CD mode - how do I install in graphic mode from here?
[05:10] <Stian> ompaul, no, there are no other video outputs
[05:10] <lesce> can somebody help me ? i'm trying to change the ubuntu logo  from the menu bar
[05:10] <AnAnt> erUSUL: yes, I mean, what's so new, that they decided to call the last update 6.06.1 ?
[05:10] <beerockxs> how can I reset the gnome font settings to the defaults?
[05:10] <ompaul> Stian, grab one from anywhere else
[05:10] <AnAnt> what's new in the .1 ?
[05:10] <Stian> we tried, but there some wacky pci 64 or whatever, what we have at hand right now doesn't work and it's friday night
[05:11] <erUSUL> AnAnt: nothing it is just a new version of the cdroms
[05:11] <lesce> i've changed the gnome-logo-icon.png but it doesn't work
[05:11] <AnAnt> ic
[05:11] <longbean> fiXXXerMet: look under the System menu iiirc
[05:11] <torpedo|dog> beerockxs: well, you can go to System > Preferences > Font and set it to what you want...lemme see if I can find a way to reset to default
[05:11] <ompaul> AnAnt, rsk answered you, for specifics look on this url and https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-announce
[05:11] <ompaul> Stian, it is friday - not night here yet :-)
[05:12] <AnAnt> ompaul: thanks
[05:12] <erUSUL> AnAnt: if you install with the old cd's just after install you will have to dl ~400 MB of updates. with the new cd's you won't
[05:12] <ompaul> erUSUL, hmm
[05:12] <Stian> hehe, we are one hour ahead :P
[05:12] <AnAnt> ic
[05:13] <fiXXXerMet> longbean:  System Menu, after it boots up?
[05:13] <Stian> can I create an unattended installer for ubuntu server?
[05:13] <summet> i need to cut a single line from a file and put it on other file
[05:13] <mega_sonic> if you dont have the 64mb of RAM will Ubunto not start up?
[05:13] <longbean> fiXXXerMet: yes. you install from the liveCD system
[05:14] <fiXXXerMet> Thanks, longbean.
[05:14] <cbgb> !amarok > cbgb
[05:14] <viper550> Guess what, I'm trying out a new IRC client!
[05:15] <ompaul> !msgthebot > cbgb
[05:15] <ompaul> :-)
[05:17] <cbgb> ompaul: sorry i'm new to IRC, is there something wrog what I did?
[05:18] <ompaul> cbgb, - just saying do /msg bot keyword
[05:18] <trappist> cbgb: so you can query the bot without triggering 900 people's activity indicators
[05:18] <CraZy675> So I wanna install ubuntu here at work
[05:18] <guru_> din
[05:18] <AnAnt> does anyone know the name of the widget that looks like a bubble , Ubuntu uses this widget in it's update manager to tell if there are new updates or need to reboot
[05:18] <guru_> huripudin
[05:19] <CraZy675> but I dont want to loose by ntfs partition incase something goes wrong
[05:19] <guru_> huripudin
[05:19] <seadog> hello all
[05:19] <guru_> huripudin
[05:19] <mormoloc> messed my repositories (6.0.6 Drapper), how do I undo the damage?
[05:19] <CraZy675> what app should i use to shirnk the partition?
[05:19] <trappist> AnAnt: it's probably an icon, not a widget
[05:19] <CraZy675> partition magic? or Gparted? something else?
[05:20] <AnAnt> trappist: no, it is a message bubble that appears BELOW the icon
[05:20] <trappist> CraZy675: the ntfs resizing is quite safe.  if it runs into any kind of problem, it'll refuse to commit the changes.
[05:20] <cbgb> ok - sorry, is there somewhere a howto or something
[05:20] <CraZy675> trappist included in ubuntu?
[05:20] <trappist> cbgb: just /msg ubotu myquestion
[05:20] <trappist> CraZy675: yes
[05:20] <longbean> mormoloc: define "messed"
[05:20] <harisund> cbgb: are you registered on Freenode?
[05:20] <trappist> CraZy675: you'll want to defrag in windows first for best results
[05:20] <cbgb> harisund: nope
[05:21] <trappist> !register > cbgb
[05:21] <ag0ny> can someone tell me why some apps usw a way to small font? i am using ubuntu dapper drake 6.06. "xdpyinfo | grep resolution" gives "resolution:    75x75 dots per inch". but in the gnome-font-properties...
[05:21] <mormoloc> longbean: changed them
[05:21] <CraZy675> trappist: ofcourse, any man pages online?
[05:21] <harisund> trappist: will cbgb get private messages from ubotu if he is not registered?
[05:21] <ag0ny> i have 96dpi. this sounds to be the problem. but idont know where to change the 75 dpi to 96 dpi
[05:21] <mormoloc> longbean: now i cant install nothing :(
[05:21] <trappist> CraZy675: shouldn't be necessary - the ubuntu installer should make it pretty painless
[05:21] <ag0ny> can someone help?
[05:21] <trappist> harisund: erm.  good question :)
[05:21] <longbean> mormoloc: and now they don't work? you didn't keep a backup by any chance?
[05:21] <cbgb> harisund: I got messages, so I guess yes
[05:22] <mormoloc> longbean: nope :(
[05:22] <whoppix> does someone know a tool how to recover deleted files from a reiserfs file system? (files where accidentially mv'ed instead of cp'ed, the partition is untouched, no new files etc). best would be if the tool would be included on some live distro :)
[05:22] <CraZy675> trappist: ok I'm sold is this feature included in kubuntu?
[05:22] <trappist> whoppix: deleted files are not recoverable from reiserfs
[05:22] <trappist> CraZy675: yes
[05:22] <morphycs> what is the best visual web site editor that supports drag and drop?
[05:22] <whoppix> trappist, uhm, thats bad
[05:22] <nn> for some reason, i just can not get grub nor lilo to install on this bloody pos of a machine.. i had to boot from a cd w/ rescue mode and do a chroot to get on irc.. :\
[05:22] <trappist> CraZy675: 'ntfsresize' is the command, if you want to check out the man page
[05:23] <trappist> whoppix: arguably
[05:23] <whoppix> trappist, ok, anyway, thx, i have a backup, i just have to find it :)
[05:23] <trappist> whoppix: sure feels that way when you accidentally delete a file, but the book says 'restore from backup' :)  you do have backups, right?
[05:23] <longbean> mormoloc: hm. you just need a clean sources.list but i'm not sure the easiest way to do that
[05:23] <trappist> good answer!
[05:23] <whoppix> trappist, yeah, i have a backup.. somewhere in this stack *pointing at a giant stack of cds, floppys, usb sticks and dvds*
[05:24] <mormoloc> longbean: I get this message for every program I install (try) http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20302
[05:24] <trappist> whoppix: you forgot 'tapes and old hard drives'
[05:24] <whoppix> trappist, oh, yeah, old harddrive.. but i dont have any tapes :)
[05:24] <whoppix> +s
[05:25] <seadog> i have n othing but stacks of cds,dvds and hdd's
[05:25] <rouzic> Hi all
[05:25] <not-a-bot> Hello, does anyone else use GAIM 2.0 beta 3 on dapper? My Auto-Away status change is broken, is that aknown issue?
[05:25] <trappist> mormoloc: I think that package has been obsoleted in favor of 'openoffice.org', which should install OOo2
[05:25] <longbean> mormoloc: can you paste your sources.list?
[05:26] <not-a-bot> The "Change status to ..." pulldown-menu is simply empty and gaim doesn't change my status on away
[05:26] <not-a-bot> Is there any way to fix that?
[05:26] <trappist> not-a-bot: you might ask in #gaim - I don't think that's an official ubuntu package
[05:26] <mormoloc> longbean: where is this source.list?
[05:26] <seadog> i'm not using the beta here
[05:26] <trappist> mormoloc: /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:26] <not-a-bot> nope, no it isn't ... the official ubuntu version of gaim crashed every time it loaded my messenger contacts
[05:27] <not-a-bot> I guess I#ll aks in GAIM :)
[05:27] <mormoloc> trappist: I get that error for every program i try to install
[05:27] <not-a-bot> thank's
[05:27] <trappist> mormoloc: oh, that's no good.  you probably need to fix your sources.list and/or apt-get update
[05:28] <erUSUL> !source-o-matic > mormoloc
[05:29] <beerockxs> torpedo|dog: I suppose you have not found a way to revert that to defaults?
[05:30] <torpedo|dog> beerockxs: nope.
[05:30] <torpedo|dog> I could tell you what they are, though.
[05:30] <nomad411> !password
[05:30] <ubotu> Forgot your password? Boot into recovery mode. What's the root password? See !sudo. Don't see *** in password prompts? That's normal. Sudo doesn't ask for your password? It remembers you for several minutes. Please use strong passwords, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StrongPasswords
[05:31] <Rudy507> hey all. Anyone know of any good fax software that uses the computer's modem to send a fax? I have a fax I need to send, and attach a couple .doc files to it
[05:31] <Kyral_Laptop> Faxes....
[05:31] <beerockxs> say I have a directory with lots of subdirectories, and each subdirectory has a subdirectory named 'bla'. is there an easy command to delete all of them at once?
[05:31] <NthDegree> Rudy507 I believe that is built in some how
[05:32] <orhthotheo> hello! i got a localeerror which i think came upon myself by editing something. here's an error from easyubuntu: http://<IP_ADDRESS>/localeerror
[05:32] <erUSUL> Rudy507: iirc hylafax was a good suite for faxes. i do not know if it comes in ubuntu
[05:32] <jo_> *
[05:33] <Rudy507> interesting... I'll boot into ubuntu and take a look then - the longer I use linux, the more and more I HATE windows. (the only reason I'm in windows right now is to send a fax, and it's making things quite difficult)
[05:33] <longbean> beerockxs: i don't know about "easy", but the find command could probably do something like that with the right options
[05:33] <erUSUL> Rudy507:  apt-cache search fax gives a lot of candidates
[05:33] <nomad411> Rudy507: It's soooooo easy to dislike Windows
[05:33] <nomad411> :)
[05:33] <Rudy507> great, thanks. I'll take a look
[05:33] <Rudy507> lol, you got that right, nomad
[05:33] <nn> apt-cache search fax|sort|less
[05:33] <nn> :)
[05:34] <nomad411> I just got a macbook yesterday.  Windows, never more
[05:34] <nn> i just bought OS X for my dell :P
[05:34] <nomad411> hehe
[05:34] <npalmer> anyone know how I find out what version of opengl driver I have?
[05:35] <neildarlow> what command do i execute after adding a file to /etc/modprobe.d?
[05:35] <longwave> beerockxs: you can do things like that with the "find" command
[05:35] <longwave> beerockxs: cd to the first directory, then something like "find . -name 'bla' | xargs rmdir" will find anything named "bla" and rmdir it
[05:35] <erUSUL> beerockxs: find /path/to/dir -name bla -print | xargs rm
[05:36] <Linuturk_code> what is the command to check an ext3 file system for errors?
[05:36] <erUSUL> beerockxs: find /path/to/dir -name bla -print | xargs rm -r
[05:36] <sproingie> Linuturk_code: fsck
[05:36] <Linuturk_code> thanks
[05:36] <beerockxs> thanks longwave, erUSUL
[05:36] <erUSUL> Linuturk_code: fsck.ext3
[05:36] <harisund> beerockxs: if you are searching for directories only: find /path/you/want -name 'bla' -type d -exec rm -rf {} \;
[05:37] <neildarlow> Linuturk_code: or fsck -t ext3 :)
[05:37] <George> how do I stop ubuntu from loading the driver module for a certain device every boot up?
[05:37] <kinection_> hello, i'm running memtest off of the ubuntu cd on a system i just built that uses 2x 1GB G.Skill DDR2 667 sticks, and it's throwing errors on tests, does this mean i will need to buy new memory?
[05:37] <Rudy507> Ok, let's see here...... :)
[05:37] <harisund> beerockxs: if you have the patience, find can do a ton of other things. You could say stuff like 'delete only those bla's that were created after jan 3nd' and stuff like that
[05:37] <George> I have onboard sound and a PCI Audigy and I don't want it to load the onboard sound (and disabling it in the BIOS doesn't appear to do much)
jes
[05:38] <fyrestrtr> George: blacklist it.
[05:38] <jo_> ore put it in oter slot
[05:38] <mormoloc> Im looking for something that reads .doc files (not openoffice and abiword)
[05:38] <kinection_> jo_: k, i'm trying that
[05:38] <neildarlow> kinection_: not necessarily. check your bios timing settings and, if possible, get it to auto-configure them e.g. load default, load optimal etc.
[05:38] <George> fyrestrtr: how?
[05:38] <kinection_> neildarlow: alright, thanks.
[05:38] <fyrestrtr> !blacklist > George
[05:39] <George> thanks fyrestrtr
[05:39] <ardchoille> !blacklist > ardchoille
[05:39] <Rudy507> hmm.... found a program called efax in the package manager... I'm going to try it out
[05:40] <Rudy507> actually, first I'm going to see if I can find any officially supported packages
[05:40] <ardchoille> !info efax
[05:40] <ubotu> efax: programs to send and receive fax messages. In repository universe, is optional. Version 1:0.9a-18 (dapper), package size 107 kB, installed size 300 kB
[05:42] <Rudy507> !info mgetty-fax
[05:42] <ubotu> mgetty-fax: Faxing tools for mgetty. In repository main, is extra. Version 1.1.33-3ubuntu2 (dapper), package size 132 kB, installed size 580 kB
[05:42] <Rudy507> err.. sorry, I rpobably should have /msg the bot
[05:42] <djk_> is there a partition size limit for ext3?
[05:43] <Stian> does the desktop-cd include vnc, that is, vnc package that is either enabled or that can be enabled?
[05:43] <harisund> Stian: there is a vnc server called 'vino' that is included.
[05:43] <travesty> Are there any plans to update the Rails package for the massive security hole patched yesterday? I am running that on my 6.06 LTS machine and wondering at this point if I should ditch the package and manually install a non-vulnerable version. Why is the response to this so slow?
[05:43] <erUSUL> djk_: sure, but i doubt you've encountered it. iirc is of more than a few terabytes
[05:43] <harisund> Stian: you can enable it by going to the 'remote desktop' settings option.
[05:43] <trappist> travesty: a fix has been committed and should be released soon
[05:44] <monkey13> What do I need to edit configwise to allow me to launch an xterm from a remote server to my localhost?
[05:44] <djk_> erUSUL: that's what i thought, however, i have two 115gb partitions, both only contain ~200mb at the moment, yet df -h shows only 109gb free
[05:44] <harisund> monkey13: are you planning on doing ti using SSH X forwards perhaps?
[05:44] <harisund> Stian: did you get my earlier message?
[05:45] <travesty> trappist - Thanks
[05:45] <monkey13> if that is best, I was just setting thr remote server display veriable to my my localip:0.0
[05:45] <harisund> oh ... that wouldn't work .... you need something to forward the graphics ..
[05:45] <stian> harisund, I got the one about enableing remote desktop, however, I have no way of getting a monitor connected to the server
[05:45] <monkey13> how would I do it via an ssh command?
[05:46] <harisund> ah .. you do have other options though stian .. you can try something called NX .. though not the same as VNC ...
[05:46] <harisund> monkey13: you would conect to the remote server using "ssh -X user@remote-machine" ..
[05:46] <erUSUL> djk_: this is normal due to filesystem layout and other diffs between what differnet tools think about what is free space
[05:46] <stian> harisund, but is it installed? I need to actually install ubuntu on the server :)
[05:46] <stian> nx isn't default, since it's closed source
[05:47] <harisund> yeah .. not by default though ..
[05:47] <stian> (except for freenx, which sucked 6 months ago)
[05:47] <harisund> stian freenxis pretty awesome actually.
[05:47] <sproingie> travesty: as i understand it, the rails patch is a one-line fix, so you could just enter it yourself without having to reinstall it
[05:47] <monkey13> Thanks I'll give that a try
[05:48] <djk_> erUSUL: don't you think 6gb is a bit much?
[05:48] <harisund> stian ,for quite some time I have been trying to figure out the ways I can access a remote computer's GUI ... I wanted a fast and neat solution.. freenx was it .. I tried SSH- X forwards, XDMCP, various VNC servers....
[05:48] <stian> harisund, What I could do is try to enable vnc by hitting Alt + Ctrl F1 on the keyboard and blindly start something
[05:48] <weakwire> hi where i can find the source.list of ubuntu 6.06 cause i messed up.. :)
[05:48] <harisund> stian: the problem with VNC it is needs a GUI running on the remote machine.
[05:48] <sproingie> weakwire: /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:48] <fyrestrtr> !easysource > weakwire
[05:48] <harisund> Otherwise it will have no X to connect to .
[05:48] <sproingie> weakwire: oh you need a new one
[05:48] <stian> harisund, the desktop installer has X
[05:48] <weakwire> yes :)
[05:48] <fyrestrtr> !easysource
[05:48] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[05:49] <erUSUL> djk_: not in 115 Gb; also %5 of the sapace is reserved for root in every fs
[05:49] <harisund> monkey13: make sure the remote machine has an ssh server with x forwarding enabled.
[05:49] <stian> harisund, so I need to enable vnc by blindly entering something in the shell
[05:49] <sproingie> sourceomatic is nice
[05:49] <Rudy507> anyone know how to get xsane open when I'm trying to send a fax? It's complaining that no supported device is connected
[05:49] <weakwire> ok i'll try out
[05:49] <weakwire> thanks
[05:49] <stian> harisund, if someone finds out what I need to enter to enable desktop sharing on the live cd I would be able to install over vnc
[05:49] <erUSUL> djk_: this is imortant in the root fs but in other fs you can disable it (in ext3)
[05:49] <harisund> stian: yeah but by blindly entering something I doubt if you would be able to correctly tell it what server to share (VNC) .. you will have to login to the gdm ..
[05:50] <stian> harisund, the desktop install cd automagically boots into a loggedin gnome session
[05:50] <harisund> stian ah .. you are right ..
[05:50] <scifi> hey guys, what was that other alternative good desktop wallpaper url to gnome-look.org ?
[05:50] <stian> harisund, yes :) which leads me to believe there is a way to install :]
[05:51] <harisund> stian: good luck with that .... I sincerely doubt if you would be able to do that.. but if you could awsome
[05:51] <stian> harisund, this is something that is possible in knoppix  http://www.knoppix.net/wiki/Hd_Install_Without_a_Monitor_HowTo
[05:51] <fyrestrtr> scifi: deviantart.com ?
[05:51] <scifi> fyrestrtr: thats the 1, ty :)
[05:52] <stian> harisund, thanks, it's a 2,4ghz server so I'll keep trying
[05:52] <spegel> Can I disable that alt+rightclick makes the menu come up, even in fullscreen mode?
[05:52] <Linuturk_code> !6.06.1
[05:52] <ubotu> I know nothing about 6.06.1 - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[05:53] <kaffien> how do i upgrade  ubuntu versions?
[05:53] <Linuturk_code> I installed 6.06. Does the update manager handle the updates to 6.06.1 ?
[05:53] <Linuturk_code> ;p
[05:53] <zsh> how do i configure bittorrent to use a specific port in ubuntu?
[05:53] <harisund> stian: I know the default VNC server is called 'vino' so perhaps some manual pages might have something
[05:53] <herbal> hey can someone tell me command to mount a .dmg image?
[05:54] <stian> harisund, thanks
[05:54] <fyrestrtr> zsh: two options, 1. run it from the command line 2. edit the menu link for it
[05:54] <stian> harisund, i'll boot it up in vmware and play
[05:54] <zsh> ok. 2 sounds better
[05:54] <zsh> fyrestrtr, what should i change
[05:55] <fyrestrtr> zsh: hrmm, let me look it up, just a sec.
[05:55] <herbal> guys how can i mount this .dmg or somehow can i just browse inside the image?
[05:55] <zsh> fyrestrtr, ok
[05:56] <stian> harisund, lol, turns out there's more trouble, I can only boot from floppy :P
[05:56] <harisund> whoa?
[05:56] <stian> yeah, since I can't access the bios and change the bootorder
[05:56] <stian> my mate _just_ told me
[05:56] <fyrestrtr> --max-port and --min-port
[05:56] <harisund> uh oh .. that's sad..
[05:57] <Linuturk_code> stian, is it a desktop or laptop?
[05:57] <stian> Linuturk_code, it's a server
[05:57] <Linuturk_code> stian, if it's a desktop there is usually a jumper on the motherboard to clear out the bios password
[05:57] <Linuturk_code> stian, so you would be able to change the boot order
[05:57] <IAskew> bios passwords from vendors are on the net if it helps
[05:58] <stian> Linuturk_code, the trouble is that I don't have the ability to connect a monitor, the gpu (or something) is blown and no addidives accepted atm
[05:58] <Bob535> !remote
[05:58] <ubotu> I know nothing about remote - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[05:58] <zsh> fyrestrtr, ok thanks
[05:58] <spegel> How do I run irssi?
[05:58] <harisund> Bob535: what were you hoping for?
[05:58] <Linuturk_code> stian, slap in a generic graphic card then
[05:58] <harisund> spegel: just start it from the command line?
[05:58] <stian> will ubuntu go mad if I install ubuntu-server on the disk on another machine, and then put it into the server
[05:58] <javiolo> spegel just type irssi
[05:58] <spegel> oh
[05:58] <spegel> nice :)
[05:59] <stian> Linuturk_code, ah yes, however for some reason those generic cards we have right here are not compatible with the pci64bit thing
[05:59] <stian> (this is according to my friend, since I have no hardware skills whatsoever :P)
[05:59] <stian> but jamming a videocard in where it doesn't fit just won't work
[05:59] <Linuturk_code> stian, well, install it on another machine, before booting into the system for the first time, switch out the harddrives
[06:00] <Linuturk_code> that might work
[06:00] <nilesh892003> how to uncompress .rar files in ubuntu dapper drake????????/

[06:03] <libervisco> a friend is tryinh to install the gtk-gnutella package and it gives him the error: dependency is not statisfiable: libgutls11
[06:03] <nilesh892003> hey friends plz help me with the installation of unrar in ubuntu
[06:04] <fyrestrtr> nilesh892003: read the wiki
[06:04] <cmvo> The problem can be solved by changing drive cables and sda to sdc in grub and fstab.
[06:04] <libervisco> I thought such things shouldn't happen in Ubuntu?
[06:04] <fyrestrtr> nilesh892003: read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories
[06:04] <spegel> Is there any good irc-client for linux? with a gui -_-
[06:04] <libervisco> "dependency is not statisfiable"
[06:04] <fyrestrtr> libervisco: you thought wrong :)

[06:05] <Tamale> why doessssssssssssssssssssssss my keyboard input continuallyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy freak out (lag) and spam letters like crazy?
[06:05] <fyrestrtr> Tamale: bad repeat rate?

[06:06] <libervisco> fyrestrtr, what's the equivalent of -f in synaptic?
[06:06] <mariano> somebody here speak spanish?
[06:06] <fyrestrtr> libervisco: good question, don't know.
[06:06] <libervisco> superjew9020, can you get to command line?

[06:06] <libervisco> fyrestrtr, he's new
[06:06] <superjew9020> yup
[06:07] <Jack_Sparrow> Tamale: IS it a standard keyboard and did it ever work or just "Suddenly" have a problem
[06:07] <herbal> fyrestrtr, thats to mount partitions i just need to temp mount this .dmg disc image so i can install something from it
[06:07] <Jack_Sparrow> herbal: What created that image..
[06:07] <Tamale> Jack_Sparrow: It's my laptop keyboard.  Has worked fine for over a month, but past couple days continually does this weird repeat  /  lag thing very, very, often
[06:07] <vinnybinny> i have a / partition and a /home parition  the root partition is almost full. i have a fresh partition waiting whats the easiest way to move my root onto the new partition?
[06:08] <Tamale> Jack_Sparrow: It makes it downright impossible to get anything done
[06:08] <herbal> i dont know what created it, ide assume something in mac
[06:08] <fyrestrtr> herbal: have you tried the disk manager?
[06:08] <bsdfox> vinnybinny, cp -rp /* /mnt/newspace
[06:08] <fyrestrtr> herbal: system > administration > disks?
[06:08] <Jack_Sparrow> Tamale: Can you plug in an extra keyboard to the lappy and see if the problem still exists
[06:08] <superjew9020> so fyrestrtr wat do i do
[06:08] <Tamale> i don't have any usb keyboards
[06:08] <Tamale> and my laptop doesn't have ps/2
[06:09] <Tamale> the keyboard works fine in windows
[06:09] <Tamale> (i dual boot)
[06:09] <fyrestrtr> superjew9020: sudo apt-get -f install gtk-gnutella
[06:09] <vinnybinny> bsdfox, that'll copy all the stuff i don't want on there are well correct? ie. /dev /proc /home
[06:09] <vinnybinny> as*
[06:09] <herbal> isnt there just some command i can use to mount it so i can browse inside it?
[06:09] <bsdfox> vinnybinny, yeah.. just do cp -rp /boot /bin /var /lib /usr .... /mnt/newspace
[06:09] <Tarandus> Hello... I fixed my dosemu problem by installing Debian testing's dosemu package with dpkg --force
[06:09] <bsdfox> then you need to run the bootloader tool
[06:09] <mrio> hey guys
[06:10] <superjew9020> it couldnt find the package
[06:10] <Tamale> Jack_Sparrow: It feels like my the OS is simply trying to do too many things at once... right before I get a zillion characters of the same type, the system freezes completely momentarily
[06:10] <herbal> i remember doing it like months ago when mounting my UT2k4.dmg but i can remember how i did it
[06:10] <bsdfox> Tamale, what's your load avg
[06:10] <herbal> *cant
[06:10] <vinnybinny> thanks bsdfox :)
[06:10] <Tarandus> Now if I try to install anything else the usual way, it stops at the forced dosemu package and complains about its missing dependencies (that include a Debian's libc6)
[06:10] <Tamale> Jack_Sparrow: Also, interestingly, using synergy to control the input never has any problems
[06:10] <bigmarCus> Is it easy for a newbie to configure XGL?
[06:10] <Tamale> bsdfox: 5%
[06:11] <fyrestrtr> herbal: sudo mount -t auto -o loop foo.dmg /some/where
[06:11] <fyrestrtr> herbal: try that
[06:11] <Jack_Sparrow> herbal: THat looks like a MAC only image but can be converted to the standard iso in mac...   http://forums.macosxhints.com/showthread.php?t=21876
[06:11] <Tarandus> How could I make it accept the forced dosemu package and not care about it?
[06:11] <fyrestrtr> bigbill52a: depends on much of a newbie you are.
[06:11] <superjew9020> fyrestrtr it couldnt find the package
[06:11] <herbal> kk cool lets see
[06:11] <fyrestrtr> superjew9020: enable universe and multiverse
[06:12] <bsdfox> Tamale, 5.00 or 0.05
[06:12] <Tamale> bsdfox:  0.05.  hardly any load.
[06:12] <Jack_Sparrow> Tamale: And you didnt upgrade or install anything and you were not using sudo to do any tuning?
[06:12] <fyrestrtr> I <3 svn
[06:12] <Tamale> Jack_Sparrow: I noticed the problem "came about suddenly" one day after booting up after a full apt-get upgrade
[06:12] <herbal> so the ideal place to mount it would be /mount so how do i make a new dir inside /mont for it?
[06:12] <Jack_Sparrow> Tamale: What about the livecd, does that have the problem?
[06:12] <Tamale> Jack_Sparrow:  I have no idea what packages were upgraded that day.
[06:13] <Tamale> Jack_Sparrow: I haven't tried that yet, but I don't have  live cd with me
[06:13] <fyrestrtr> herbal: no, don't mount it in /mount
[06:13] <Tamale> Jack_Sparrow: I assume it would work fine, just like ubuntu did for over a month
[06:13] <Cytomax> how do i check my wifi driver version in 6.06?
[06:13] <herbal> where should i mount it?
[06:13] <fyrestrtr> herbal: mkdir ~/dmg-disk sudo mount -t auto -o loop foo.dmg /home/yourusername/dmg-disk
[06:13] <superjew9020> how do i do that
[06:13] <Jack_Sparrow> Tamale: Can I also assume you have no backups of your Ubuntu system?
[06:13] <herbal> kk
[06:14] <Tamale> Jack_Sparrow: No, I don't know how to backup properly yet.
[06:14] <marvel> any help, getting PS printer error from lpr -Pprinter filename; printer works from other ubuntu's, same printcap

[06:15] <vinnybinny> bsdfox, that won't change any permissions or links?
[06:15] <herbal> that did work it gave me mount options
[06:15] <superjew9020> just type it in the terminal?
[06:15] <Tamale> Jack_Sparrow: Well, it's too late now.. i don't want to back it up like this.. it's pretty much unusable unless i can get on another computer on the same network and use synergy
[06:15] <seadog> yes
[06:15] <marvel> help, getting PS printer error from lpr -Pprinter filename; printer works from other ubuntu's, same printcap
[06:15] <fyrestrtr> herbal: conver it to an iso image
[06:16] <afranke> hey all
[06:16] <bsdfox> vinnybinny, cp -p preserves permissions
[06:16] <Wermut> Can anybody recommend a tool for archiving web pages (for offline viewing) ?
[06:16] <erUSUL> Wermut: wget, htttrack
[06:16] <vinnybinny> bsdfox, cool again thanks for your time
[06:17] <fyrestrtr> herbal: try this
[06:17] <Jack_Sparrow> Tamale: It is a good idea to backup before a full upgrade
[06:17] <superjew9020> where do i type in !repose
[06:17] <fyrestrtr> mount -t hfs -o loop foo.dmg /home/yourusername/dmg-disk
[06:17] <foufou> how to password protect tarred archives
[06:17] <Tamale> Jack_Sparrow: I've probably done 20 full upgrades in the past few weeks!
[06:18] <erUSUL> foufou: you can us gpg
[06:18] <erUSUL> use*
[06:18] <Wermut> eruSUL: Does httrack support archiving a web page into a single file (wget does not provide this iirc) ?
[06:18] <Jack_Sparrow> Tamale: And if you had done even one backup you would have a working system right now
[06:18] <Tamale> Jack_Sparrow: And at this point, berating me for my amatureness isn't helping either.. I just want to know how I can troubleshoot this keyboard problems
[06:18] <herbal> says wrong fs type
[06:18] <superjew9020> fyrestrtr?
[06:18] <erUSUL> Wermut: i do not know sorry.
[06:19] <fyrestrtr> superjew9020: go to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and enable universe and multiverse
[06:19] <Jack_Sparrow> Tamale:  fyrestrtr might have an idea...
[06:19] <scifi> can anyone recommend a desktop image for me, im sick of trawling through pages and pages of images :P
[06:19] <vicscandl> scifi: goatse ;)
[06:19] <Cytomax> erUSUL: I have a Netgear WG511T (Atheros Chipset) when i type dmesg i see lots of stuff.. i scroll down and see a few ath0:.... i see one that says ath_pci: <IP_ADDRESS> (EXPERIMENTAL)... is that it?
[06:19] <Tamale> aight..
[06:19] <scifi> i'd like something slick and simple
[06:19] <mads_peder> i need to kind of delete my windows partition , its fat32. i run qtparted , but it says none found am i root . i am newbie to this , so please explain what i can do to get the windows part formated and accessable .
[06:19] <Jack_Sparrow> scifi: gnome-look.org is where I go
[06:19] <marvel> Can anybody help, getting PS printer error from lpr -Pprinter filename; lpr: error - unable to print file: client-error-not-found
[06:20] <herbal> hmmm maybe ill just try some program like asmounter or something
[06:20] <seadog> dsl
[06:20] <Tamale> fyrestrtr: Did you type an idea out already and I just missed it?
[06:20] <seadog> oh as in background image
[06:20] <fyrestrtr> herbal: if its a newer image, then you need hfs+ support, which I don't think is available in dapper.
[06:20] <scifi> Jack_Sparrow: yeh thats where ive been looking, but cant quite find nething that grabs me
[06:20] <erUSUL> Cytomax: yes it could be that
[06:20] <fyrestrtr> Tamale: I suggested a repeat rate check.
[06:20] <scifi> vicscandl: whats goatse ?
[06:20] <fyrestrtr> scifi: don't go there.
[06:20] <Jack_Sparrow> scifi: IT is such a personal thing...  No one can tell you what you like
[06:21] <Tamale> fyrestrtr: I set them both as high as they would go and the problem still persisted.. just less repeats./
[06:21] <vicscandl> scifi: you don't want to know
[06:21] <fyrestrtr> Tamale: hrmm, I don't know -- its truly strange that after an update this would happen.
[06:21] <Valery> hellow
[06:21] <scifi> Jack_Sparrow: its true, but im so indecisive :P
[06:21] <bur[n] er> anyone use wine?  I'm curious if it's possible to make the "wine system tray" actually show up in the notification area
[06:22] <Cytomax> erUSUL: Thank you
[06:22] <afranke> I have a problem but I'm not if this should filed as a bug so I'd like some advice first
[06:22] <afranke> due to the dapper-updates repository, my totem and totem-gstreamer version is now 1.4.3
[06:22] <afranke> there's a conflict with totem-gstreamer-firefox-plugins which absolutely wants 1.4.1
[06:22] <vicscandl> scifi: if you do, wikipedia it (sorry about way-off-topic)
[06:22] <Jack_Sparrow> scifi: yes you are, no you're not yes you are, no you're not yes you are, no you're not yes you are, no you're not
[06:22] <bigmarCus> Is there a sys info script for xchat that is collorful?
[06:22] <vicscandl> i just could not resist.
[06:22] <erUSUL> Cytomax: no problem
[06:22] <Valery> What detect new hardware in Dapper?
[06:22] <scifi> Jack_Sparrow: LOL
[06:22] <Tamale> fyrestrtr: Granted, I don't really think it's the update that did it
[06:22] <Jack_Sparrow> Sorry
[06:22] <mads_peder> i am using aprox 20 gb on this ubuntu part, and i would really like to get the last 60 gb i used  to use for my win available here
[06:22] <bur[n] er> totem-gstreamer-firefox-plugins doesn't really work anyway
[06:22] <erUSUL> Valery: the kernel and hald
[06:22] <Tamale> fyrestrtr: I'm just saying that I never once had the problem until one daaaaaaaaaaay
[06:22] <Tamale> arg
[06:22] <fyrestrtr> lol
[06:23] <afranke> bur[n] er: I remember I saw it working
[06:23] <bur[n] er> afranke: u could use mozilla-mplayer in the meantime I'm thinking... i can't get either one to work these days though... might be my use of XGL though
[06:23] <Tamale> it really sucks 'cause i have a lot of keyboard shortcuts for things, like Alt-F1 bringing up a terminal.  if it happens to freak out right then, the comp will get in a vicious cycle of trying to load up more and more terminals, which stresses the cpu even more, which makes it freak out even more, etc
[06:24] <mads_peder> can i just run the desktop install cd maybe and change size of partiton there ?
[06:24] <Tamale> also, my "modifier" keeeeeeeeeeys like alt, ctrl, and supeeeeeer will periodically get stuck on
[06:25] <Tamale> whiccccccccccccch of course really screws things up
[06:25] <afranke> bur[n] er: ya but since all my videos work with totem, I didn't want to have yet another video player installed
[06:25] <erUSUL> mads_peder: use gparted from a livecd. Make backups as dealing with disk and part is always risky business
[06:25] <Jack_Sparrow> mads_peder: http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/ has some good tools you can try
[06:25] <afranke> otherwise I would have also considered VLC
[06:25] <seadog> does anyone know how to get the extra buttons for a toshiba laptop to work under linux?
[06:25] <bigmarCus> For Xchat is there a sysinfo script available?
[06:26] <IAskew> bigmarCus, xchat.org has many scripts
[06:26] <scrappy_> seadog: maybe as easy as apt-cache search toshiba    and see what package you need
[06:26] <ag[1] > hi
[06:27] <Jack_Sparrow> Please people... when you get your system the way you want it, back it up...
[06:27] <bigmarCus> IAskew thanks
[06:27] <seadog> oh ok i'll try it
[06:27] <JackONeill> Can I change the Gnome Main Menu button back to the normal foot icon?
[06:27] <Tamale> seadog:  My laptop is a toshiba.. what buttons were you hoping to get to work?
[06:27] <mads_peder> i have ult boot disk, just it would be nice if i could access the partition from here as a root and then like fomat the win part and free upp the space. . ok i try first the live cd , and then if it doesnt play i may check the ult boot. otherwise i just do the istall of this for the 7th time , but hey whos counting . brb hopefully
[06:27] <regeya> Seconding the captain Jack_Sparrow's call for backing up
[06:27] <seadog> the media buttons and the mouse pad extras
[06:27] <regeya> I'll also add:  Back up /home on a regular basis
[06:27] <IAskew> bigmarCus, http://xchat.org/cgi-bin/search.pl?str=system+info&cat=0&Submit=Search
[06:27] <Tamale> seadog:  The media buttons don't create x events at all, so I'm not sure they'll be usable
[06:28] <regeya> might not hurt to put /etc under revision control, if your sanity can handle it
[06:28] <seadog> oh ok thnx
[06:28] <superjew9020> fyrestrtr multiverse and universe are now enabled
[06:28] <fyrestrtr> superjew9020: now install it
[06:28] <Tamale> seadog: I think they were hardcoded to work with windows media player
[06:28] <afranke> JackONeill: something like http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=26854 ?
[06:28] <ag[1] > I just installed ubuntu server and im trying to login into root so i can change the password but there didn't seem to be a prompt during install that asked for root password, what should i do now?
[06:28] <fyrestrtr> !root > ag[1]
[06:28] <fyrestrtr> !root
[06:28] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[06:28] <superjew9020> thanks a lot :-D
[06:29] <remnant> hi, would someone happen to be able to give me some pointers as to how I can setup mysql on ubuntu?  I installed mysql-admin but I don't yet know how to login to administer it
[06:29] <fyrestrtr> remnant: sudo apt-get install mysql-server mysql-client
[06:29] <Wermut> seadog: What is your problem?
[06:29] <seadog> Tamale: thnx
[06:29] <fyrestrtr> remnant: mysql-admin is not the server, just a front end to administer other servers.
[06:29] <Tamale> remnant:  I just set it up recently myself too.. try to read up on phpmyadmin.. it can make mysql work much, much easier  :)
[06:30] <Tamale> seadog: NP
[06:30] <Tamale> seadog: I wanted to make them work with XMMS myself, so I already looked into it a tad :]
[06:30] <seadog>  Wermul: i just wanted to know if there's a way to get the extra buttons for my tosiba to work in linux
[06:30] <Tuxar> Is there others rooms in ubuntu servers ?
[06:30] <remnant> fyrestrtr: yes, I installed phpmyadmin too, but is there a default user and password?
[06:30] <Wermut> Did you find a way?
[06:30] <seadog> no...not yet
[06:30] <mopflite> !hair
[06:30] <ubotu> I know nothing about hair - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[06:30] <odat> anyone have an open source oriented website?
[06:31] <Tamale> remnant: did you follow the ubuntu guide for installing mysql?  It has the steps to take to set up the root account
[06:31] <NthDegree> odat, sourceforge.net is open-source orientated if that's what you mean
[06:31] <IAskew> THIEF!
[06:31] <mwe> remnant: root, no pass is default in mysql
[06:31] <Tamale> my kids gotta eat
[06:31] <IAskew> ur forgiven then
[06:32] <remnant> Tamale: I will look it right now, I was browsing the site with none yet luck
[06:32] <Wermut> seadog: Can you get the keycodes via xev?
[06:32] <seadog> ?
[06:32] <remnant> Tamale: thanks I will look at it right now
[06:32] <remnant> mwe: : thanks I will look at it right now
[06:32] <mwe> remnant: set a pass though
[06:32] <remnant> mwe: yes, of course
[06:33] <Wermut> seadog: Open a terminal and type xev[RETURN] .
[06:33] <airwind> Hello, I've just installed Ubuntu 6.06 now. But, it boots up really slow, and also slow in starting applications.
[06:33] <Tamale> So absolutely no one here has any ideas of other things I can try to fix my laggy keyboard?
[06:33] <airwind> I see that it starts up lots of services in the begining.
[06:33] <Tamale> airwind: CPU?  Ram?
[06:33] <airwind> how do I speed it (booting and application response)?
[06:34] <Baltazar^2> (18:19:42) (Baltazar^2) I have STLAB Sil 0680 raid controller - ATA
[06:34] <Baltazar^2> (18:20:48) (Baltazar^2) I create using this controller raid 1 filed with 2 hdd's. Linux somehow does not recognize these settings by the controller - all data is written only on one hdd
[06:34] <dell500> i've been trying to make my USB-SATA drive partition, but for some reason it won't, it's a 300gb seagate
[06:34] <Tha1> hey
[06:34] <airwind> Configuration: 1Ghz, P-3, 128MB SDRAM
[06:34] <neutrinomass> Tamale: File a bug report....
[06:35] <seadog> alot of crap printed out but nothing happened when i pushed the buttons
[06:35] <airwind> Hello, anyone pls help....
[06:35] <Baltazar^2> Anyone here with RAID, software or hardware ?
[06:36] <scifi> airwind: stick another stick of 128meg ram in
[06:36] <erUSUL> !raid
[06:36] <ubotu> Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO
[06:36] <Wermut> seadog: Make sure the xev window has focus, i.e. move the mouse over it and click. Then don't touch the mouse any more or it will produce lots of irrelevant messages. Press the desired key and it will show the keycode.
[06:36] <JackONeill> Can I change the Gnome Main Menu button back to the normal foot icon?
[06:36] <Baltazar^2> !raid
[06:36] <airwind> Any possibilities to increase speed / performance without additional hardware?
[06:36] <airwind> I have WinXP on the same machine, and it works fine.
[06:37] <Baltazar^2> ubotu: tnx
[06:37] <ubotu> I know nothing about tnx - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[06:37] <Baltazar^2> damn
[06:37] <Baltazar^2> :)
[06:37] <seadog> it has focus but nothing happens when keys are pressed
[06:37] <erUSUL> Baltazar^2: yes it is a bot
[06:39] <Ackeubu_> !kernel-updates
[06:39] <ubotu> I know nothing about kernel-updates - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[06:39] <Ackeubu_> !kernel-update
[06:39] <ubotu> I know nothing about kernel-update - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[06:39] <neutrinomass> airwind: Is DMA enabled? ( sudo hdparm /dev/hda if you have an IDE hard disk )
[06:39] <Ackeubu_> !kernel
[06:39] <pushpop> How do you install script in Xchat?
[06:39] <ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux'). You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[06:39] <neutrinomass> airwind: Further, do you have a swap partition?
[06:39] <ken_> help with the sound card
[06:39] <Wermut> seadog: It does not print anything in the console window? Then you are unlucky, but not lost :) Open the file /var/log/messages and search for a line "atkbd.c: Unknown key pressed ...".
[06:39] <JackONeill> Can I change the Gnome Main Menu button back to the normal foot icon?
[06:39] <ken_> my card doesn't work
[06:40] <dell500> does anyone here know how to create a partition onto a 300gb usb?
[06:40] <seadog> ok
[06:41] <mopflite> JackONeill: almost certainly, yes - you may need to spend some time browsing the documentation section of the gnome web site to work out how, though
[06:41] <ZeiP> I'm running Ubuntu installation with a pressed CD, version 5.10. The Live-CD boots and works just fine, but when trying the installation disc, it seems to end up jamming on a blank screen. When giving boot options to select Finnish keymap and disabling frame buffer, it jams after saying "SET debian-installer/keymap fi". Can someone guide me to the right direction on how to get the installation properly started?
[06:41] <scrappy_> dell500: sudo cfdisk /dev/sda  ?
[06:42] <mopflite> 5.10 didn't have a live cd did it?
[06:42] <Baltazar^2> dell500: parted
[06:42] <ZeiP> (It doesn't jam, the kb works fine, but it doesn't do anything).
[06:42] <T`ch> Zedd, why not try latest?
[06:42] <T`ch> ZeiP, i mean
[06:42] <dcnstrct> guys, the other day I was having an issue with bad ram that was making programs segfault right and left.  I replaced all the ram.. now all my apps work even the big ones EXCEPT for the apt-get suite.  They all still segfault.  I don't think this can be a hardware problem, can anyone help or give me ideas ? thanks
[06:42] <ZeiP> T`ch, only have the 5.10 CD:s with me :)
[06:43] <T`ch> ZeiP, try text install instead of X
[06:43] <ZeiP> How?
[06:43] <T`ch> may be its your graphic card or something
[06:43] <T`ch> when you boot thru the CD, i think you just type "text" and enter
[06:43] <dcnstrct> dcnstrct@dragoon:~$ sudo apt-cache search foo
[06:43] <dcnstrct> Password:
[06:43] <dcnstrct> Segmentation fault
[06:43] <ZeiP> Ok, Ill try that. Thanks.
[06:43] <T`ch> try it.. i'm sure there are instructions on the bootscreen too
[06:43] <frankiv> i had a lovely problem trying to install dapper server --- the install CD would boot to the region questions, but then couldn't find the install media --- for some reason it couldn't read the cd from the installer
[06:43] <ZeiP> T`ch, "Could not find kernel image: text"
[06:44] <mopflite> I had to use the alternate 6.06 cd to install dapper on this machine - the live desktop cd kept hanging when I tried to install from it, albeit the live cd functionality itself worked fine
[06:44] <T`ch> ZeiP, does it say anything about text on the screen?
[06:44] <neutrinomass> dcnstrct: With dapper ?
[06:44] <seadog> no nothing
[06:44] <dcnstrct> neutrinomass, yes
[06:44] <ZeiP> T`ch, no, I'd have tried it already if I'd noticed that :)
[06:44] <Dimensions> hi i have few computers when i install ubuntu alternate cd on them they get installed with low vga options but they dont run after installation is complete and system reboots ... is there any lighter version of any linux OS in debian based which would work and support usb port and internet connectivity ... in other words complete system but lighter even if its without GUI or less GUI as i dont need GUI
[06:44] <IAskew> dcnstrct, what if try using synaptic/adept/aptitude?
[06:44] <frankiv> so i used knoppix livecd to bootstrap an install
[06:44] <Wermut> seadog: There should be a line saying "Use 'setkeycodes e02a <keycode>' to make it known." (Do you happen to speak German by the way?)
[06:44] <dcnstrct> IAskew, synaptic tries to open then crashes
[06:44] <neutrinomass> dcnstrct: Plesae follow http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash please to produce a backtrace, and pastebin it
[06:44] <IAskew> bummer
[06:44] <mopflite> Dimensions: have you tried xubuntu?
[06:45] <dcnstrct> neutrinomass, ok
[06:45] <frankiv> Now the system is up and running, but i am having a hard time getting anything to install under cpan. i worry i dont' have the right dev tools installed or something. Make always fails under cpan.
[06:45] <seadog> no i don't but didn't see any type line
[06:45] <T`ch> ZeiP, try "vmlinuz text"
[06:45] <w3bmast3r101> does any one know of a way to setup a local update repository
[06:45] <ZeiP> Could not find kernel image: vmlinuz
[06:45] <mopflite> frankiv: sudo apt-get install build-essentials
[06:45] <T`ch> ZeiP, linux text
[06:46] <mopflite> frankiv: sudo apt-get install build-essential even
[06:46] <T`ch> ZeiP, hehe sorry.. i dont know exactly so just guessing possibilities.. i'm googling atm
[06:46] <ZeiP> Yeps :)
[06:46] <Dimensions> mopflite:  no i have not but i use ubuntu dapper drake and breezy
[06:46] <T`ch> ZeiP, works?
[06:46] <ZeiP> It started booting but is now on blank screen. I don't think it's coming up with anything...
[06:46] <Centaur5> I'm trying to print to a shared printer on windows and Dapper says Status: Ready /usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip failed. What can I do?
[06:46] <T`ch> ZeiP, oh.. so same prob as before?
[06:46] <seadog> Wermul: i wish i could speak lots of languages
[06:46] <ZeiP> Yes
[06:47] <frankiv> mopflite: is that going to install x-windows stuff? this is just a lamp server
[06:47] <dell500> !usb
[06:47] <ubotu> I know nothing about usb - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[06:47] <dcnstrct> neutrinomass, those instructions require for me to use apt-get
[06:47] <T`ch> ZeiP, ok i need more detials.. where exactly does it fail.. and what does it say before the keymap seting
[06:47] <dcnstrct> neutrinomass, if I use apt-get at all it segfaults
[06:47] <Dimensions> mopflite:  is it lighter than ubuntu ? i tried ubuntu server even but didn't work for me
[06:47] <mopflite> frankiv: no, it installs tools required to build packages from source, as takes place when installing perl modules using cpan
[06:48] <mopflite> Dimensions: it's lighter than standard desktop ubuntu, but not lighter than ubuntu server
[06:48] <mopflite> !xubuntu
[06:48] <ubotu> Xubuntu is Ubuntu with XFCE, for more info, see http://www.xubuntu.org. To install from Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[06:48] <Tha1> hi just 1 question
[06:49] <Tha1> i can't succesfully install ubuntu
[06:49] <ZeiP> T`ch, there are two possibilities on the startup: without the framebuffer disabling it ends up on blank screen (which is not on standby). With kernel option removing the frame buffer _and_ another changing the keymap to Finnish it ends up with two lines on the bottom of the screen  the keymap line mentioned before and another one, which I'm currently trying to get.
[06:49] <ZeiP> T`ch, it reboots normally with ctrl+alt+del, so it's not totally stuck.
[06:49] <mopflite> frankiv: I use cpan too to track spamassassin and keep up to date - the spamassassin version packaged with dapper is 10 months old, and spamassassin is one up that needs to be constantly updated if it is to be effective
[06:50] <mopflite> s/up/app
[06:50] <Tha1> he crashes when I try to do it, but  it's randomly
[06:50] <neutrinomass> dcnstrct: Hm... I'm not sure how it can be done in a simple manner.... try filing a bug report ...
[06:50] <frankiv> thanks for the info, i'll try it right away
[06:50] <ZeiP> T`ch, works now, using "linux text debian-installer/framebuffer=false"
[06:51] <seadog> Tha1: how much ram
[06:51] <neutrinomass> dcnstrct: The tough way would be to use aptitude to install all the build deps, then grap the source from packages.ubuntu.com and rebuild the package manually with debug options enabled....
[06:51] <dcnstrct> neutrinomass, I think I just need to reinstall the apt system
[06:51] <Tha1> 512mb
[06:51] <T`ch> ZeiP, ooh weird.. hehe anyway cool
[06:52] <dcnstrct> the apt-system is what is segfaulting... it needs to be replaced completely
[06:52] <Dimensions> mopflite:  which one is the lightest version as compared to any other debian system or ubuntu ... ? which could give all of the support just like ubuntu / debians
[06:52] <dcnstrct> any ideas on how to do that ?
[06:52] <neutrinomass> dcnstrct: Maybe that fixes it as well..... but if it doesn't and if this isn't already a known issue it will be tough to debug ...
[06:52] <Wermut> seadog: I opened a query with you.
[06:52] <T`ch> ZeiP, do a apt-get update dist-upgrade after installing to get to Dapper ;)
[06:52] <neutrinomass> dcnstrct: does aptitude segfault as well ?
[06:52] <seadog> ya did?
[06:52] <dcnstrct> neutrinomass, YES
[06:52] <Tha1> i've tried with previous versions but without success
[06:52] <mopflite> Dimensions: xubuntu is the lightest "packaged ready to go" desktop version
[06:53] <dcnstrct> dcnstrct@dragoon:~$ aptitude
[06:53] <dcnstrct> Ouch!  Got SIGSEGV, dying..
[06:53] <dcnstrct> Segmentation fault
[06:53] <Tha1> if it mathers is a sempron 2400+
[06:53] <neutrinomass> dcnstrct: Ouch indeed..... let me think ...
[06:53] <cmvo> Is there a way to keep device names from changing when adding an additional sata drive?
[06:53] <mopflite> !aptitude > mopflite
[06:54] <cica> hi guys!
[06:54] <seadog> a query?
[06:54] <dcnstrct> neutrinomass, I need to find a way to completely reinstall the apt suite.  I'll look around for help on the net, if I can't figure it out after a while Ill just reinstall the OS.
[06:54] <dcnstrct> thanks for your help
[06:54] <linux_manju> Hi all.. I am planning for an installation of squid box.. Its been running debain sarge 3.1 with rieserfs as the file system.. Just to check up.. What file systems would you pleople have gone for the /cache parttion..?
[06:54] <neutrinomass> dcnstrct: dpkg ?!
[06:54] <cica> has anyone got any experience in using Cisco VPN with Ubuntu?
[06:54] <T`ch> cica, i use it
[06:55] <linux_manju> cica: ask the question
[06:55] <T`ch> cica, i use vpnc though ... its an open source client for cisco VPN.. works pretty good
[06:55] <linux_manju> cica: With open swan
[06:55] <FlimFlamMan__> anyone know which package contains the HEAD command?
[06:55] <dcnstrct> neutrinomass, yeah thats what I'll try.
?
[06:55] <neutrinomass> FlimFlamMan__: 'coreutils'
[06:55] <Wermut> seadog: There should be a seperate window or something similar.
[06:55] <T`ch> FliesLikeABrick, http://packages.ubuntu.com
[06:55] <Baltazar^2> !postfix
[06:55] <FlimFlamMan__> neutrinomass: thanks
[06:55] <ubotu> postfix is the default Mail Transfer Agent (MTA) for Ubuntu. Read more about setting it up here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Postfix or here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PostfixBasicSetupHowto
[06:56] <patrick_king> hey all
[06:56] <linux_manju> FlimFlamMan__: I know openswan. and its working perfectly.. whats the problem you are facing?
[06:56] <Baltazar^2> !vmware
[06:56] <ubotu> VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository. Instructions to install VMWare Server can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/InstallingVMWare
[06:56] <cica> linux_manju: what u mean with open swan?
[06:56] <airwind> neutrinomass: I tried out your command, it says that DMA is off.
[06:56] <cica> linux_manju: and ask the question ??
[06:56] <FlimFlamMan__> neutrinomass: actually i mean HEAD not head
[06:56] <seadog> i just opened one
[06:56] <airwind> Now, that probably is the reason why my system is slow.
[06:57] <airwind> How do I enable DMA?
[06:57] <neutrinomass> dcnstrct: If that fails as well, then probably the easiest way to fix it is a reinstall. An ugly hack (which of course I have never tried and cannot even be sure that it will work) is to grab the apt library manually and unpack it (.deb's are actually compressed archives) and copy everything to the correct location. This might damage your system further though...
[06:57] <neutrinomass> !dma
[06:57] <ubotu> dma is Direct Memory Access/Addressing.  It makes hard disks run faster,  see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DMA
[06:57] <linux_manju> cica: well there is a confusion here i guess.. Well i was talking about.. openswan/linux box at the one end.. and Cisco router at the other end.. site to site tunnel
[06:57] <neutrinomass> airwind: If you find that you can't enable it, file a bug against linux-source-2.6.15 (if you're on dapper, that is )
[06:57] <teicah> !lotto_numbers > teicah
[06:57] <ubotu> I know nothing about lotto_numbers  - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[06:57] <Djainette> hi Everybody. Can anyone help me with my iso ? Is it possible, like with .nrg files, to bypass to 4Go filesize limit of FAT32 by creating 2 parts ?
[06:57] <zoomy> Can anyone tell me if apt supports application groupings like yum??
[06:57] <cica> linux_manju: ohh I see
[06:57] <IAskew> sudo apt-get convert windows-knowledge > linux-knowledge
[06:57] <neutrinomass> FlimFlamMan__: HEAD is not really a command.... it could be an HTTP request and it could be a CVS branch - where did you see it referenced as a command ?
[06:57] <teicah> !lotto_numbers > teicah
[06:58] <ubotu> I know nothing about lotto_numbers  - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[06:58] <dcnstrct> neutrinomass, to tell you the truth this is a rather new system anyway so it's not a big deal for me to trash it and reinstall.  The ubuntu install went so smoothly last time it shouldn't be a big deal.  I'll just get my backup on.  Thanks for your assisstance with this.
[06:58] <airwind> Thanks!
[06:58] <airwind> I shall try this out.
[06:58] <cica> T`ch & linux_manju: I was just wondering do you have it set to automatically start from boot?
[06:58] <neutrinomass> dcnstrct: If it's a new system, reinstall.  (VPN)?
[06:59] <T`ch> cica, i just use vpnc-connect and vpnc-disconnect
[07:00] <seadog>  /msg nickserv set unfiltered on
[07:00] <elmargol_> Hi I did a fresh install of ubuntu-server 6.06.1 on an via epia board. I can't boot the installed kernel :(
[07:00] <IAskew> huh
[07:00] <moparfan90> what is the alternative install cd?
[07:00] <elmargol_> The system hangs at unpacking kernel modules
[07:00] <zoomy> If I want to install Gnome what package I'm a suppose to use apt-get gnome-app-install???
[07:01] <IAskew> zoomy?
[07:01] <elmargol_> zoomy: gnome-desktop-environment
[07:01] <Tomo666> hi, just wondered if anyone could help. i have installed ubuntu my other computer, i use it to host a teamspeak server for my friends. my problem is  the power just keeps going off, i dont think its shutting down. i dont know if its hardware or a software problem. it wont turn back on until i switch the other switch on the back on and off and the funny thing is the num lock light on my keyboard doesnt go out. thx for any help
[07:01] <cica> T`ch: or ./] vpnclient connect...
[07:01] <zoomy> that will install XORG dependencies as well?
[07:01] <pushpop> How do I install a GDM Theme in Ubuntu?
[07:01] <alienseer23> how do I show all of the programs I have installed that don't have menu shortcuts?
[07:02] <Wermut> seadog: Still there? Sorry, try http://de.gentoo-wiki.com/Multimediatasten#Keycode_herausfinden
[07:02] <gimmulf> Where can i find more nice backgrounds for gnome?
[07:02] <odat> moparfan90, that is a text based installer
[07:02] <Tarandus> How are dpkg-buildpackage and debuild differen?
[07:02] <zoomy> elmergol: How did you find that application grouping?  apt-cache?
[07:02] <moparfan90> oo
[07:02] <moparfan90> ok
[07:02] <seadog> ok Wermut
[07:02] <IAskew> gimmulf, gnome-look.org
[07:02] <gimmulf> thanks IAskew
[07:02] <mopflite> gimmulf: quite a few come with ubuntu, or try the gnome web site
[07:02] <neutrinomass> Tomo666: Does keeping the power button pressed for 4-5 seconds not help either ?
[07:02] <IAskew> yvw
[07:02] <Tamale> You know, there really should be a button in the background switcher program that links to gnome-look.. I've seen that question a zillion times in here....
[07:02] <Wermut> seadog: Wait a second...
[07:03] <Tomo666> no
[07:03] <IAskew> !gnome-look
[07:03] <ubotu> I know nothing about gnome-look - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[07:03] <IAskew> thats a shame, the bot should know about gnome-look
[07:03] <Wermut> seadog: Try "cat /var/log/messages | grep atkbd.c"
[07:03] <Djainette> Is there an iso-doctor in the room ?
[07:04] <seadog> ok
[07:04] <Tomo666> neutrinomass  no it doesnt help
[07:04] <jpfarias> good morning people
[07:04] <neutrinomass> Tomo666: Then it's probably a hardware problem.... It just happens randomly ?
[07:04] <Tomo666> neutrinomass yes
[07:05] <jpfarias> I would like to know if there are any vnc client with support for resizing window
[07:05] <pushpop> How do I install a GDM Theme in Ubuntu? is there a wiki on this?
[07:05] <jpfarias> like tightvnc and ultravnc does in windows
[07:05] <seadog> nothing happened
[07:05] <Wermut> seadog: Sorry, I was trying to figure out why you did not recieve my messages and pasted the wrong thing.
[07:05] <seadog> i'm not registered
[07:05] <BlueEagle> tomo666: Might be a borked APM or ACPI bios you've got.
[07:06] <Tomo666> neutrinomass: as my num lock light stay on do u think itl be mother board although the psu does go silent
[07:06] <neutrinomass> Tomo666: I don't really know...  It could be a motherboard issue..... make backups and try Windows on it and see if the problem persists.
[07:06] <jpfarias> I would like to know if there are any vnc client with support for resizing window
[07:06] <jpfarias> like tightvnc and ultravnc does in windows
[07:06] <Ych> jpfarias, you mean resizing the desktop?
[07:06] <seadog> i have to make a new nick
[07:06] <BlueEagle> tomo666: ie. it attempts to go to sleep mode and then hangs.
[07:06] <Ych> or just the window around it, so you can scroll
[07:06] <BlueEagle> tomo666: You could try compiling a kernel w/o apm and acpi support.
[07:06] <alienseer23> is there a way to show all of the packages I have installed other than synaptic?
[07:06] <neutrinomass> Tomo666: Well, try what BlueEagle says. Try booting the kernel with acpi=off as an argument ...
[07:07] <Tomo666> thing is i hav run ununtu for awhile this is a new problem
[07:07] <seadog> i'll be back in a minute
[07:07] <Tomo666> ok ill try that
[07:07] <Tomo666> thx for ur help
[07:07] <Denial> hi all
[07:07] <neutrinomass> BlueEagle: I think the kernel cannot trap the several-second power button. Just hitting the powerbutton can be trapped and used as you wish, but the several second one always shuts down the computer, even when it has hanged.
[07:08] <Denial> du someone habe nForve sound drivers running ?
[07:08] <herbal> ok so i cant mount this .dmg, dmg2iso didnt work right....now im thinking i should copy the dmg to my windows partition and work on the dmg in windows...how can i get write access to that partition?
[07:08] <Denial> lol
[07:08] <Ych> jpfarias, cause i can make the window smaller so i have to scroll with xvncclient
[07:08] <damo22> why would u want the kernel to trap the hard reboot button
[07:08] <Ych> i mean xvncviewer
[07:08] <Ych> sry
[07:08] <Denial> Do someone have Nforce soundcard drivers running ?
[07:08] <Crooper> Wermut:i'm back
[07:08] <Wermut> Crooper: If that did not show anything either a) you did something wrong or b) your vendor did not wire that keys or c) there is some obscure bug in the kernel. Sorry if I could not help you. You can try to machine-translate this document http://de.gentoo-wiki.com/Multimediatasten#Keycode_herausfinden which covers the topic in a exhaustive manner.
[07:09] <jpfarias> Ych
[07:09] <bruce89> pushpop :  Login window in preferences has a GDM theme installer - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Gdmsetup.png
[07:09] <Ych> ya?
[07:09] <alienseer23> denial, which nforce?
[07:09] <jpfarias> Ych: I want to resize it but see whole desktop
[07:09] <Ych> oh, so zoom basically?
[07:09] <Crooper> ok...thnx for the help anyway Wermut
[07:09] <jpfarias> Ych: sort of
[07:09] <herbal> can someone tell me how to copy this file to my windows partition? its mounted and everything but wont let me write to it
[07:09] <jpfarias> Ych: it opposite as zoom
[07:09] <pushpop> bruce89: thank you
[07:09] <Wermut> Crooper: I would try to repeat the steps 1) find keycodes via xev and 2) find scancodes in /var/log/messages
[07:10] <bruce89> a bit late though
[07:10] <damo22> herbal: ntfs or fat32?
[07:10] <Denial> alienseer23, nforce for 430
[07:10] <jpfarias> Ych: I wanna see the desktop 1/2 the actual size
[07:10] <herbal> NTFS
[07:10] <Linuturk_code> herbal, if it's a NTFS system, you can't write to it
[07:10] <Crooper> ok...i'll research alittle too
[07:10] <herbal> ouch
[07:10] <Ych> yeah, zoom out basically
[07:10] <damo22> herbal, you dont wanna write ntfs its still broken
[07:10] <Ych> sorry, i have no idea, i just started using vnc myself recently
[07:10] <herbal> hmmm i think there is a program to read EXT2 in windows...maybe thatll work for me
[07:10] <jpfarias> ok
[07:10] <jpfarias> thx
[07:11] <Crooper> Wermut: right now i need to eat so i'll talk later
[07:11] <damo22> herbal, you can read from it though
[07:11] <Linuturk_code> herbal, there is a project out there to write to ntfs from linux. google for linux-ntfs
[07:11] <jpfarias> if u have the chance, try ultravnc in windows and u'll see what I mean
[07:11] <beerockxs> how can I reset the gnome font settings to the defaults?
[07:11] <alienseer23> denial: I have an nforce2 chipset, and I guess there are problems with some of the audio in nforce
[07:11] <Renan_s2> Hello, how can I fix an error "Fatal server error: could not open default font 'fixed'" when starting X?
[07:11] <herbal> cool thank you
[07:11] <alienseer23> so I use a soundblaster
[07:11] <Ych> well my windows machine is headless, so wont get around to it any time soon
[07:11] <damo22> linuturk: yes but i wouldnt trust it, it corrupts filesystems
[07:11] <Ych> but ill check it out sometime
[07:11] <JackONeill> Can I change the Gnome Main Menu button back to the normal foot icon?
[07:11] <jpfarias> lol
[07:11] <jpfarias> ok
[07:12] <Linuturk_code> have you ever typed so much you have blisters on the tips of your fingers? well, now I have :(
[07:12] <bruce89> oops
[07:12] <herbal> hmm maybe ill just do it in windows copy the file over, than mount it with daemon tools or extract data with winrar
[07:12] <Linuturk_code> or burn it to a disk herbal?
[07:12] <herbal> no cdrw...
[07:12] <damo22> usb stick
[07:12] <herbal> i used linstlux or w/e to install ubuntu
[07:12] <GNAM> 9 minutes and I complete ubuntu dapper dvd service pack 1
[07:12] <GNAM> :P
[07:13] <Linuturk_code> herbal, you could also setup a FAT32 partition on the drive. You can read/write from both windows and linux on FAT32
[07:13] <bruce89> service pack?
[07:13] <Baltazar^2> service pack ? more info please
[07:13] <ardchoille> Is there 6.06.01?
[07:13] <herbal> hmm
[07:13] <Crazed> hi got a problem ..

[07:14] <ardchoille> Wow, didn't know that

[07:17] <zero-1> why cant I use ImageCreate on PHP5 on Ubuntu?
[07:17] <bruenig> ubuntu, My install is only at 4 GB disk usage right now and I have been using it for quite a while so 7 is plenty unless you intend to store a bunch of files o nit

[07:19] <bruenig> anon, I never really cared for the dist-upgrade myself, fresh install always seemed best
[07:19] <bburns_> Can someone help me please
[07:19] <anon4318> well i thought maybe it had something to do with frostwire
