[04:56] <unagi> anyone know how to get video off a dv video recorder?
[04:56] <DWSR> profanephobia: No need. I have wireless working.
[04:56] <ddcc> pici: The only thing it won't let me move is the :: menu separator, which should be right after the applications/places/system menu
[04:57] <DWSR> unless this will give me something better, like easy multiple network configuration.
[04:57] <profanephobia> dwsr great cool
[04:57] <DWSR> Thanks a lot.
[04:57] <DWSR> !easysource > DWSR

[04:57] <DWSR> Boo. ubotu broke again.
[04:57] <pawan> how to install beryl
[04:58] <thoreauputic> ribando_: actually you should be able to install without the key anyway - but having it is good security practice
[04:58] <ribando_> thoreauputic oki will try that
[04:58] <DWSR> !repos
[04:58] <ddcc> pawan: you can sudo apt-get install beryl emerald-themes hopefully that does the trick, but you need to have enabled the restricted drivers for your graphics card
[04:58] <Pici> DWSR: The bot is lagged.
[04:59] <DWSR> Pici: Can you give me a list of respositories? I'm looking to add multiverse, universe, and backports for feisty.
[04:59] <thoreauputic> ribando_: did you read http://medibuntu.sos-sts.com/repository.php  ?
[04:59] <dgeorge> im currently using opera
[04:59] <thoreauputic> ribando_: tells you how
[05:00] <Romnous> aargh, i want to install a sort of mail server (exchange server) on feisty fawn, but zimbra doesn't support feisty, and can't get kolab to work somehow... anyone knows how to install kolab from the repositories if it's there.. or does anyone know a different exchange server?
[05:00] <unagi> how do i see what is connected to my firewire ports like lsusb
[05:00] <unagi> !dv
[05:00] <Pici> DWSR: Do you have a system>administration>software sources entry?
[05:00] <fyrestrtr> DWSR: deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ feisty-updates main restricted multiverse universe fiesty-backports
[05:00] <Pici> unagi: possibly lspci
[05:00] <dgeorge> can someone help me with the java plugin for opera
[05:01] <fyrestrtr> Romnous: try scalix ( www.scalix.com )
[05:01] <DWSR> fyrestrtr: I'm in Canada. Can I use http://ca.archive..... instead?
[05:01] <ribando_> thoreauputic thanks, all worked fine, copying the key from www.medibuntu.org
[05:01] <fyrestrtr> DWSR: yes.
[05:01] <unagi> anyone know how to caputer dv video in ubuntu?
[05:01] <paradroid> Hi. Anyone using WebDAV to access remote file storage? I do not succeed in setting it up under 7.04
[05:01] <thoreauputic> ribando_: :)
[05:01] <Romnous> thx fyresstrt, will check
[05:01] <lunaphyte_> when i launch a new terminal window from an existing window using shift+ctrl+n, it ignores my --geometry setting.  how can i make it honor them?
[05:01] <fyrestrtr> lunaphyte_: save it part of the default profile
[05:02] <Romnous> scalix is not for free :(
[05:02] <Piddy> Hi. Where can I get Beryl?
[05:02] <CheshireViking> !beryl | Piddy
[05:02] <DWSR> Is the CDRom included as a repository by default in Feisty?
[05:02] <DWSR> I can't see an entry for it, but know it's like that in previous versions of ubuntu.
[05:02] <kritzstapf> Piddy, you want Compiz Fusion :)
[05:03] <Piddy> What? Do you want me to type that, CheshireViking?
[05:03] <pawan> how to install beryl
[05:03] <lunaphyte_> fyrestrtr: i looked through the profile settings, and didn't find settings related to that.  what am i missing?
[05:03] <pawan> pawan@pawan-desktop:~$ sudo apt-get install beryl emerald-theme
[05:03] <pawan> Reading package lists... Done
[05:03] <pawan> Building dependency tree
[05:03] <pawan> Reading state information... Done
[05:03] <pawan> beryl is already the newest version.
[05:03] <pawan> E: Couldn't find package emerald-theme
[05:03] <IdleOne> pawan, join #ubuntu-effects
[05:03] <pawan> pawan@pawan-desktop:~$
[05:03] <CheshireViking> Piddy, no, it should have brought some info up about beryl, but the bot isn't working properly at the minute
[05:03] <riotkittie> isnt it ... emerald-themes
[05:03] <paradroid> unagi: Did you try dvgrab?
[05:03] <Romnous> !paste | pawan
[05:03] <Piddy> I see.
[05:04] <msingh> ok, now i got sound issues. xmms plays fine.. but i cannot hear anything. have checked mute settings and they're ok
[05:04] <Piddy> Well I just installed ubuntu, so.. I doubt I have Beryl.
[05:04] <nivekc1> ok i am  having a crappy day lol.. so finally i got the ati driver installed now i do the aticonfig command and it says "Uninitialised file found, configuring.         Using /etc/X11/xorg.conf        Saved back-up to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.original-0             aticonfig: Writing to '/etc/X11/xorg.conf' failed. Bad file descriptor." why doesnt it work? i dont get it?
[05:04] <kritzstapf> beryl is not being developed anymore
[05:04] <kritzstapf> compiz and beryl are now compiz-fusion
[05:04] <Romnous> beryl fused into compiz-fusion
[05:04] <daynah> If I'm going to go to the darkside and install XP, what file system do I format it as for best compatibility?
[05:04] <DWSR> I will be back #ubuntu, next to install an nVidia driver, but cheers for now. Thanks everyone and have a good day!
[05:04] <Romnous> fat32
[05:04] <daynah> Thanks :)
[05:05] <Romnous> ntfs support in ubuntu sux
[05:05] <Piddy> Oh, so what I want is compiz-fusion?
[05:05] <DWSR> WRONg.
[05:05] <Romnous> yup
[05:05] <CheshireViking> Piddy, try enabling desktop effects, that gives you the option of wobbly windows and the cube without needing to install anything else
[05:05] <ConstyXI1> Piddy: beryl
[05:05] <mrsno> Romnous what is wrong with ntfs support in ubuntu?
[05:05] <DWSR> NTFS SUPPORT IN LINUX ROCKZ0RS.
[05:05] <riotkittie> daynah: i'd go for ntfs
[05:05] <ConstyXI1> Piddy: sorry
[05:05] <DWSR> Check out ntfs-3g in the multiverse repos.
[05:05] <Romnous> i won't
[05:05] <Dr_willis> I have beenusing NTFS-3g for a few weeks now with no issues.
[05:05] <Romnous> yah ok
[05:05] <wpboyce> ok i don't see anything that says locked but it won't let my mount the drive it shows up in ubuntu as one drive but in partion manger ask 2
[05:05] <DWSR> daynah: Go with ntfs.
[05:05] <Romnous> but for fat32 you won't have to install anything else
[05:05] <wpboyce> as
[05:05] <Dr_Link> I don't like GNOME-xchat
[05:05] <defrysk> j fat32 is the safe choice
[05:05] <Romnous> i want to install a sort of mail server (exchange server) on feisty fawn, but zimbra doesn't support feisty, and can't get kolab to work somehow... anyone knows how to install kolab from the repositories if it's there.. or does anyone know a different exchange server?
[05:05] <DWSR> Romnous: ntfs-3g is simple. sudo apt-get install ntfs-config && sudo ntfs-config. Done.
[05:05] <Dr_willis> Dr_Link,  i dont think anyone does.
[05:06] <kritzstapf> fat32 doesnt support files larger than 4GB, thats ass..
[05:06] <daynah> Oh dear. I think I've done ntfs before, so I'll go with that, no offence. I've just doing this for a game, so I doubt I'll use it much.
[05:06] <riotkittie> fat32 is fine for storage, but i wouldnt install xp on it.
[05:06] <paradroid> ext2 will also work, since there is a Ext2 access software for Windows XP: http://www.fs-driver.org/
[05:06] <Romnous> but that doesn't mean fat32 is simpler
[05:06] <Romnous> lol ok
[05:06] <Dr_Link> I still use it.
[05:06] <DWSR> daynah: What game are you using it for?
[05:06] <unagi> is there anything for linux similar to premiere or finalcut?
[05:06] <Dr_Link> Considering it's my only REAL choice.
[05:06] <unagi> !premiere
[05:06] <Dr_willis> ext2/3 will work with that  http://www.fs-driver.org/ stuff. :)
[05:06] <daynah> FFXI. I'v elooked it up. No possibilities of wining it
[05:06] <Falstius> in a modern system, the filesize limit of fat32 is really annoying.
[05:06] <Dr_willis> Dr_Link,  i use the normal 'xchat'not xchat-gnome
[05:06] <DWSR> daynah: Tried Cedega?
[05:06] <kritzstapf> Falstius, DVD-images... :/
[05:06] <Dr_Link> meh
[05:07] <Romnous> but it's only for a game falstius
[05:07] <dgeorge> why can't i install the plugin for fire fox
[05:07] <Geek> there;s also a reiser for windows as well (raw mode viewr, not a IFS)...
[05:07] <Romnous> THE plugin??
[05:07] <paradroid> Anyone using WebDAV to access remote file storage? I do not succeed in setting it up under 7.04
[05:07] <Pici> unagi: http://www.linuxalt.com/
[05:07] <daynah> I haven't tried it with anything, I'm not smart, but others have with no success. There's a first program called Play Online, and that works, but you have to have that open to load FFXI and then FFXI never loads.
[05:07] <Kragnerac> :)
[05:07] <Romnous> i want to install a sort of mail server (exchange server) on feisty fawn, but zimbra doesn't support feisty, and can't get kolab to work somehow... anyone knows how to install kolab from the repositories if it's there.. or does anyone know a different exchange server?
[05:08] <Piddy> Ok, so now I enabled the Effects, do I have the effect that allows me to like.. spin that cube-thing?
[05:08] <Spork> I am having a problem with my sound wondering if anyone can help
[05:08] <erUSUL> !sound
[05:08] <Romnous> Piddy; you should check the compizfusion shortcut-keys
[05:08] <CheshireViking> erUSUL, its dead
[05:08] <PriceChild> erUSUL, please be patient, we are aware :)
[05:08] <Romnous> piddy: www.beryl-project.org <-- there must be a link over there
[05:09] <Piddy> Ok, thanks.
[05:09] <khin> hi im having a strange issue with my time. it says 3:08 on the upper panel but when i click set date and time it reads the correct time, 11:08. i dont have it set to synchronize w/ internet servers.
[05:09] <Romnous> i want to install a sort of mail server (exchange server) on feisty fawn, but zimbra doesn't support feisty, and can't get kolab to work somehow... anyone knows how to install kolab from the repositories if it's there.. or does anyone know a different exchange server?
[05:09] <khin> im using dapper
[05:09] <daynah> Hey, I'm in GPartition and NTFS is greyed out. I have it formatted as ext2 right now. Do I need to format it as something else before NTFS?
[05:10] <Romnous> if you're going to install windows, you can leave the space unallocated, and let winbloze format it as ntfs
[05:10] <Geek> i don't thin gpartition handles NTFS. let windows fo it
[05:10] <Geek> *do
[05:10] <paradroid> khin: Do a manual synchronization with a server of your choice, though. And check if you have selected the correct timezone.
[05:10] <Romnous> i want to install a sort of mail server (exchange server) on feisty fawn, but zimbra doesn't support feisty, and can't get kolab to work somehow... anyone knows how to install kolab from the repositories if it's there.. or does anyone know a different exchange server?
[05:10] <mrsno> gparted handles ntfs fine, if you use vista ntfs then you need to use the gparted live cd.
[05:10] <dgeorge> im learning that installing the OS is the easy part of ubuntu
[05:10] <mrsno> personally i would just let windows handle its own partition, but it works in gparted too
[05:10] <Romnous> heh:P
[05:10] <Spork> does anyone have a problem that when you play mp3's they eventually begin to skip, and all sounds then do that?
[05:10] <Geek> mrsno: gparted livecd has problems resizing vista NTFS IIRC, XP chkdsk fixed it tho ;p
[05:11] <Romnous> nope
[05:11] <Spork> i mean skip as in repeat a small portion
[05:11] <daynah> I'm going to  XP. How do I got GParted to do either NTFS or Unallocated then, because I can't find he unallocated then.
[05:11] <khin> ive selected the correct timezone. the servers can fix the problem but i dont understand why this should happen at all
[05:11] <mrsno> Geek a few months ago yes (as the version of gparted on the gparted livecd was the same one in feisty) but that is not the case for some time now :)
[05:11] <Romnous> daynah: you can leave the space just empty/don't assign a filesystem to it
[05:11] <mrsno> daynah to save confusion, possibly leave creating a partition for xp, to the xp installer
[05:11] <Dr_Link> is there an xchat-gnome channel?
[05:11] <Geek> (that being said, vista was like " huh?" and XP fixed it ;p)
[05:12] <Spork> help? anyone? :(
[05:12] <N3432> i have a second hard drive, whats the best way to go about installing ubuntu on it so that my xp install is untouched
[05:12] <Romnous> i want to install a sort of mail server (exchange server) on feisty fawn, but zimbra doesn't support feisty, and can't get kolab to work somehow... anyone knows how to install kolab from the repositories if it's there.. or does anyone know a different exchange server?
[05:12] <daynah> Oh. Delete.  I swear I did that in the Windows installer and it wasn't able to format itself. Bleh, cross fingers
[05:12] <Romnous> first xp, then ubuntu
[05:12] <khin> actually, i take that back. the servers dont fix the problem. the time in 'set date and time' reads correctly but the one on the desktop panel is still four hours ahead of that.
[05:12] <wpboyce> how can i mount my harddisk in the live cd?
[05:13] <N3432> Romnous: xp is alrdy installed.
[05:13] <daynah> N3432, your xp will be untouched.
[05:13] <Romnous> N3432: then you go ahead and install ubuntu on your second drive

[05:25] <daynah> bauer, without any knowledge I'm going to guess yes. You wont be able to use Beryl though. Before you install, remember to use the live cd part, though, okay? If the live cd works, it'll work.
[05:25] <DWSR> fulat2k: Unmount it and remount it in the command line with -o rw.
[05:25] <fyrestrtr> I tried it briefly, but since I only had to support 23 users, scalix community edition fit the bill nicely.

[05:25] <ubu> thoreauputic, so i can give my virtual machine a good chunk of that free space and still run linux smooth?
[05:26] <sorvilan> hi!
[05:26] <Romnous> fyrestrtr: but scalix isn't for free :(
[05:26] <fyrestrtr> Romnous: it is.

[05:27] <daynah> bauer, not to talk down, I dunno you and how much you know :) but the Ubuntu cds first run off of the comp's memory, not the harddrive, so you can see how they work without them potentially messing up your files. Beryl is really fancy video effects. Try googling it on youtube. To me, it was worth the $30 tax refund for a cheap nvidia card :)
[05:27] <ubu> thoreauputic, thanks 4 the info, appreciated
[05:27] <fyrestrtr> Piddy: join #ubuntu-effects

[05:27] <thoreauputic> ubu: no worries :)
[05:27] <Piddy> I'm there, but nobody's active apparently
[05:27] <dxdt> Piddy: don't use the tarballs if you can avoid it.  It will make your life more complicated.  Try to install it via something like aptitude or synaptic.
[05:27] <Romnous> fyrestrtr: i'm going to check it out
[05:27] <tribbilina> y donde estan esos canales?
[05:27] <alivedata> nbnds : check your Xorg log (var/log/) - did you update a driver?
[05:27] <thoreauputic> ubu: of course virtual machines tend to be somewhat slower anyway, as you would realise
[05:27] <dxdt> Piddy: Also check out their wiki and such because they used to have step by step instructions on there

[05:28] <Celt> fyrestrtr: you are going to hate me, but I'm not sure.  Is there a way to find out?
[05:28] <fyrestrtr> Celt: lspci
[05:28] <Romnous> fyrestrtr: scalix doesn't support my OS (feisty fawn) nor my amount of ram...
[05:28] <Celt> ok, let me find it.
[05:28] <Dr_Link> I need to set a keyboard shortcut to open the System Monitor.
[05:28] <chikita> profanephobia, its alsa
[05:29] <Piddy> dxdt: Their Wiki is closed.
[05:29] <mandavi> Piddy: also take a look for compiz-fusion at ubuntuforums and find a script there which will install the important files
[05:29] <DWSR> profanephobia: Can I add that to a config somewhere to get it to auto-load on startup?
[05:29] <Dr_Link> I can't find that particular shortcut inside the keyboard shortcuts applet
[05:29] <profanephobia> chikita try using oss
[05:29] <Dr_Link> what do I do?
[05:29] <fyrestrtr> Romnous: there are debian packages for it (as I was running it on both fedora and debian). Can't help you with the ram issue. Get more ram.
[05:29] <profanephobia> dwsr yeah one sec ill post
[05:29] <chikita> ok

[05:30] <bauer> Okey i buy MS windows then
[05:30] <profanephobia> dwr also do this  nm-applet --sm-disable

[05:30] <Piddy> Ah, ok=D
[05:30] <Dr_Link> I need to set a keyboard shortcut to open the System Monitor.
[05:30] <Dr_Link> I can't find that particular shortcut inside the keyboard shortcuts applet

[05:30] <daynah> Bauer- Darling, Ubuntu should work. :)
[05:30] <DWSR> nm isn't installed profanephobia. I'm using xubuntu
[05:30] <fyrestrtr> Celt: does the volume mixer work? If so, you might just need to update alsa.
[05:30] <chikita> another question :), are there any good download manager for linu? ive been testing aria but it was a major dissapointment
[05:30] <profanephobia> dwsr oh yeah forgot lol sorry
[05:31] <ansque> maybe somebody know how i can change my menu "places"? I want change default search on beagle search
[05:31] <DWSR> chikita: If you use Firefox I suggest you check out DownThemAll
[05:31] <Celt> fyrestarter: No volume mixer doesn't seem to have any effect on the sound.  How would I go about updating Alsa?
[05:31] <Dr_Link> ...I'm sorry, but is anyone going to answer my question?
[05:31] <Bogaurd> I'm looking at upgrading the soundcard in my machine to something like a creative audigy 2 zs. can someone tell me if this card is properly supported under ubuntu at the moment? or would I be better off buying another, more linux friendly card?
[05:32] <chikita> ok DWSRm, i will consider that, i wish there were a flashgot version for linux
[05:32] <shadowmancer> having issues with repositories, it seems no matter what repository i choose i can't get any packages off of it, any suggestions
[05:32] <DWSR> flashget sucks. EOF.
[05:32] <beeeranden> I need some help.  I do not have internet connection to my pc downstairs.  Just have the dial up here in the boonies. I am trying to create a local repository on my hd. Anyhow after i placed the packages in /home/user/repos/ and created a packages.gz in repos using dpkg-scanpackage.  I  believe my problem may lie in my sources.list  It looks like deb file:/home/user/repos ./  Does this look right
[05:33] <profanephobia> dr_link: hold on ill post
[05:33] <daynah> haha, shadowmancer, I was about to ask if you were connected to the internet. I need coffee.
[05:33] <Dr_Link> ok

[05:34] <profanephobia> dwsr: i got one too
[05:34] <Celt> ok, thanks.
[05:34] <Celt> fyrestarter: Ok, thanks.
[05:34] <profanephobia> dr_link: let me know if that worked
[05:34] <Dr_Link> It didn't.
[05:34] <profanephobia> ok
[05:34] <daynah> Speaking of trying to install XP. It's trying to install it's version of grub on my Linux harddrive, which would require a reformat of that harddrive.  I have Vista on my laptop, and Linux isn't working but I keep trying it, so I've isntalled Vista like 4 times. That's quite literally 20 hours of my life wasted.
[05:35] <fulat2k> DWSR: do i do that in rescue mode?
[05:36] <ribando_> need some help with xine media player
[05:36] <dxdt> daynah: if you do Linux then Vista, Vista is mean and will kill the MBR and such so that Linux can't boot.  Is that what you are talking about or something else?
[05:36] <ConstyXI1> is there any chance of some sort of ndiswrapper helper (gui app that takes care of ndiswrapper for you) in gutsy?
[05:36] <shadowmancer> daynah: meh, i did it 6 times and i just gave up and now use ubuntu exclusively
[05:36] <fyrestrtr> daynah: it takes 30 minutes (max) to install vista. How is that 20 hours?
[05:36] <ribando_> need some help with xine media player
[05:37] <daynah> dxdt, no, my laptop is super new in such a fashtion that the mobo isn't supported yet. Only been on the market... maybe two months now.
[05:37] <DWSR> fulat2k: Do what.
[05:37] <thoreauputic> ribando_: so ask the actual question...
[05:37] <shadowmancer> daynah: though i hear feisty can dual boot with vista no problem, or if your using an older version of grub or lilo you need to modify something but i can't remember what
[05:37] <Pici> !grub
[05:37] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[05:37] <DWSR> profanephobia: You know of any way to speed up DNS name resolution on this thing? It takes ages.
[05:37] <daynah> fyrestrtr, you're joking! 3-4 for each of my installs! Maybe 2.5 for vista and the rest for the laptop driver cd!
[05:37] <TheFuzzball> Hi, I am a bit of a n00b in the area of Testing so can anyone tell me exactly how to get KDE 4 Beta 1 running on Ubuntu?

[05:38] <DWSR> to hosts?

[05:38] <meridian> hi all.  can ubuntu install off a external cdrom? or external hard drive?
[05:38] <profanephobia> dwsr: i manually added my DNS servers
[05:38] <Anlar> Piddy: well, it's more finished and working generally than beryl for instance..
[05:38] <fyrestrtr> If you want to dual boot with Vista, you install Vista first, but don't let it take over the entire hard disk. Leave unpartitioned space. Once Vista is installed, pop in the 7.04 install CD, and install on the 'largest available free space' and your grub will automatically have the entry for vista. Did this on three machines without issue.
[05:38] <meridian> i.e. copy image to hard drive from install cd
[05:38] <daynah> shadowmancer, it's not a problem with dual booting or anything like that. I just couldn't get linux on it period. The suggested solution was to wait. Bleh. GAg.
[05:38] <DWSR> profanephobia: My DNS server is my default gateway. I added it already.,
[05:38] <fulat2k> DWSR: unmount and remount in rw mode. :)
[05:39] <shadowmancer> hehe
[05:39] <fyrestrtr> daynah: it takes you 3 *hours* to install Vista?
[05:39] <Piddy> Ok, I'm supposed to type in a bunch of codes.. Where, in the terminal?
[05:39] <DWSR> fulat2k: No, you just need sudo.
[05:39] <fulat2k> DWSR: normal bootup?
[05:39] <shadowmancer> fyrestrtr: yeah though thats with feisty, i said if your using an older version, when i was using edgy it didn't work

[05:40] <daynah> Fyrestrtr, the devs of any of the distros I have tried yet have not worked on my mobo. There's something asus-related floating around in Ubuntu in the last few weeks. Only problem with Vista is I only have 1 gig and it's slow. I swear, THREE HOURS

[05:41] <fyrestrtr> daynah: you have bigger problems then. I have 1 GB RAM, and my performance rating is 4 on my laptop.  Vista is fine when it's just vista and normal stuff. Even Vista and WoW. But Vista + FFXI is awful, even after a nice deep msconfig cleaning.

[05:42] <fyrestrtr> I'm not thinking you are an idiot. I'm just stating my experience over three laptop and vista and ubuntu. What is FFXI?
[05:42] <Anlar> piddy: yes, but those howtos are 90% of the time perfectly safe and work :)

[05:45] <shadowmancer> fyrestrtr: my dell laptop came with vista, and even then i found issues with the wireless stuff
[05:45] <Geek> daynah: grab a ubuntu liveCD or gparted
[05:45] <fyrestrtr> daynah: you can, but not from within Windows.
[05:45] <BigMac> Hey I have an amd semprons, so which build of this should I be downloading http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=195473&package_id=231596
[05:45] <profanephobia> daynah: gnome partition editor
[05:45] <fyrestrtr> shadowmancer: eh, okay.
[05:46] <Piddy> Where do I type "sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list"? Also the Terminal?
[05:46] <daynah> Geek, I love you. It's always something simple I never think of.
[05:46] <Destroyertje> hey, someone is using here hellanzb?
[05:46] <Geek> carve out an XP partiton FIRST. install to that parititon, reinstall grub
[05:46] <Scally> Is there a quieter networking/service channel?
[05:46] <bulmer> blackdiamond: what kind of nic card this is? wired or wireless?
[05:46] <fyrestrtr> shadowmancer: blame dell, as my ibm had no issues. In fact, I have issues with Linux. It drains my battery quicker than Vista. 4 hours vs. 2
[05:46] <Knight_Lord> How can I import messages in kmail?
[05:46] <Geek> daynah: learnt the hard way ;)
[05:46] <Pici> BigMac: Are you running 64bit ubuntu?
[05:46] <Scally> all setting fyrestrtr
[05:46] <profanephobia> destroyertje: yeah
[05:46] <BigMac> Pici: Nope 32 bit feisty
[05:47] <daynah> Geek, I knew I Would have to reinstall grub, but easy peasy. I couldn't find a friggin guide for this online. I can't have been the only person that's done this.
[05:47] <fyrestrtr> Scally: I didn't do any settings in Vista for it to work correctly out of the box.
[05:47] <Piddy> Anyone=
[05:47] <Piddy> ?
[05:47] <shadowmancer> fyrestrtr: anyways i am happy with ubuntu now, and so far the only problem i have had is just recently with the repositories, they are either refusing me access or timing me out, so i can't recieve updates or new packages, and thats through both command line, and GUI
[05:47] <thoreauputic> Knight_Lord: try asking in #kubuntu - more people there would use kmail
[05:47] <daynah> Geek, I was googling wrong.  PLEASE HELP
[05:47] <mandavi> Piddy: yes
[05:47] <profanephobia> piddy: whats your question
[05:47] <BigMac> ok thank you Pici
[05:47] <Piddy> mandavi: thank you
[05:47] <DWSR> bulmer: I just disabled ipv6 by putting in those two off lines in my aliases file and now I can't connect or resolve at all!
[05:47] <sharperguy> where can i see a list of packages in medibuntu and feisty-commercial?
[05:47] <fyrestrtr> shadowmancer: probably your mirror is down, try an alternate.
[05:47] <thoreauputic> guys, discussion of vista is offtopic here, OK ?
[05:48] <Geek> daynah: funny thing is, i was here to ask help for my new ubuntu server ;p
[05:48] <Destroyertje> profanephobia: ehh i have a question, the guide @ ubutnuforums says install par2, but the readme from hellanzb says install par2cmdline, so is there a difference or what?
[05:48] <Piddy> profanephobia: Nevermind I got it:)
[05:48] <bulmer> DWSR do a  /etc/init.d/networking restart
[05:48] <profanephobia> destroyertje: install par2cmdline
[05:48] <daynah> Geek, yeah, I do that to, I come here for help and someone asks "How do change me desktop in Ubuntu?" and I think... wait... did he REALLY just ask that...
[05:48] <Geek> er... login screen right? ;p
[05:48] <fyrestrtr> Geek: what is the problem with your server?
[05:48] <shadowmancer> fyrestrtr: thats the thing, i have tried a couple of dozen mirrors, and they all have the same problem, and its just a recent issue
[05:49] <Geek> fyrestrtr: it was already solved ;p
[05:49] <dgeorge> frostwire.. so i installed it.. but it won't open
[05:49] <fyrestrtr> shadowmancer: strange .. have you been practicing any shadow magic near your hub? :P
[05:49] <Kasle> can anyone please help me with finding a patch to bcm43xx???
[05:49] <dgeorge> what is needed to get it working
[05:49] <FireFox>  why can't string literal be used as template argument?
[05:49] <fyrestrtr> dgeorge: did you forget to install java?
[05:49] <Geek> TBH i needed a nice text mode web browser, and i found one. hung around to well, get a feel of the place ;p
[05:49] <profanephobia> destroyertje: wait thats the same app but its in the rops as par2
[05:49] <dgeorge> nope i have java installed
[05:49] <bensode> Trying to install cups on a Fiesty server installation but getting a message that it's not available but referred to by another package
[05:49] <daynah> Geek, if you're good at helping, why not consider Triaging some of the bugs? :)
[05:49] <thoreauputic> Kasle: what patch? I don't know what you are referring to
[05:49] <fyrestrtr> Geek: what did you end up using?
[05:50] <ClNorris> Google does not like to tell me answers. My question is how do you program screensavers for ubuntu?
[05:50] <thoreauputic> bensode: try cupsys
[05:50] <DWSR> bulmer: 'No DCHPOFFERS received. No working leases in presistent database - sleeping'
[05:50] <Geek> fyrestrtr: elinks works well enough. I can't memorise a dozen keyboard shortcuts ;)
[05:50] <ansque> somebody know how i can edit my menu places?
[05:50] <shadowmancer> fyrestrtr: if you discount swearing at it, then no
[05:50] <sharperguy> !fesity-commercial
[05:50] <dgeorge> why would it not open
[05:50] <bensode> thoreauputic: Sweet that was it thank
[05:50] <bulmer> Kasle http://www.unix-tutorials.com/go.php?id=575
[05:50] <Destroyertje> profanephobia: ahh k :) and http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/32243/ this is the readme for install. i think it's python-dev and python-twisted or something like that
[05:50] <Geek> granted, its running in VMware so... i could just use FF on the host ;p
[05:50] <fyrestrtr> Geek: there was one .. can't remember now, maybe elinks -- that has a hook that allowed you to view images.
[05:50] <B-rabbit_> thoreauputic: i have updated it right now but 'flashplugin-nonfree' till isnt there
[05:51] <thoreauputic> bensode: for future reference - try  apt-cache search <keywords>
[05:51] <daynah> Geek, I don't need to use the feisty cd for my feisty right?
[05:51] <Geek> fyrestrtr: i don't need images
[05:51] <bulmer> DWSR you can manually enable your nic card and run dhclient
[05:51] <Dr_Link> I have an Intel PROset Wireless card and Ubuntu recognizes it but for some reason I can't connect to a wireless network. Any ideas?
[05:51] <allorder> ive just downloaded the regnum game and I got this error:  ./rolauncher: error while loading shared libraries: libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory, what should i do ?
[05:51] <Eclipsor> fyrestrtr: talking about web browsers? w3m has image support
[05:51] <Geek> daynah: not too sure. I *think* it would be better ti use feisty
[05:51] <thoreauputic> B-rabbit_: then something is wrong with your /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:51] <DWSR> Dr_Link: Use ndiswrapper.
[05:51] <bulmer> Dr_Link: is it your AP?
[05:51] <profanephobia> dr_link: what drivers are you using
[05:51] <bensode> thoreauputic: duly noted.  Thanks again
[05:51] <thoreauputic> !info flashplugin-nonfree
[05:51] <ubotu> flashplugin-nonfree: Adobe Flash Player plugin installer. In component multiverse, is optional. Version <IP_ADDRESS>.0ubuntu1~7.04.1 (feisty), package size 15 kB, installed size 108 kB (Only available for i386)
[05:51] <Dr_Link> Intel's PROset driver.
[05:52] <Dr_Link> came with my Windows installation...
[05:52] <thoreauputic> B-rabbit_: are you running amd64 ?
[05:52] <Dr_Link> and then I installed Ubuntu on another partition
[05:52] <Geek> also, i think i'll be using the server on SSH on putty very soon..
[05:52] <DWSR> got it. Thanks bulmer.
[05:52] <Eclipsor> I'm having some problems booting my computer anymore after an upgrade to gutsy (changed feisty to gutsy in all the repos)  LILO hangs and then a few minutes later complains about not being able to find the LVM partition to boot from :\
[05:52] <B-rabbit_> yes
[05:52] <Eclipsor> is there any way to fix this easily? I have an ubuntu install cd with rescue mode
[05:52] <profanephobia> dr_link: you can either use ndiswrapper or use bcm43xx
[05:52] <ClNorris> how does ubuntu handle screensavers? and how do I find out more information on making one?
[05:52] <thoreauputic> B-rabbit_: ah, adobe don't make flash for 64 bit
[05:53] <Dr_Link> ndiswrapper  is... how easy... to install?
[05:53] <thoreauputic> B-rabbit_: complain to adobe
[05:53] <DWSR> Dr_Link: It's in the respositories.
[05:53] <daynah> CINorris, just a second
[05:53] <bulmer> Dr_Link: is it your own AP? and now WEP or encryption enabled?
[05:53] <fyrestrtr> ClNorris: you need to search gnome screensavers, not ubuntu screensavers. Ubuntu is a distribution that uses gnome. Try in #gnome for more help.
[05:53] <bulmer> no*
[05:53] <Dr_Link> yes
[05:53] <Dr_Link> it is an open AP without any encryption key
[05:53] <allorder> ive just downloaded the regnum game and I got this error:  ./rolauncher: error while loading shared libraries: libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory, what should i do ?
[05:53] <B-rabbit_> thoreauputic; isn't there any way around it?
[05:54] <fyrestrtr> allorder: install libgtk
[05:54] <profanephobia> b-rabbit: if you want to use flash in 64bit ubuntu i recommend either installing the 32 bit version of firefox or whatever browser or installing the windows version with wine
[05:54] <khandi> hi all
[05:54] <ClNorris> fyrestrtr, I know. Everywhere I look for informationrelating to gnome-screensaver. I get nothing.
[05:54] <DWSR> allorder: sudo apt-get install libgtk
[05:54] <Piddy> Huh? It says " add the folloing to your /etc/apt/sources.list: sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list".. Now.. what should I do to do this?
[05:54] <bulmer> Dr_Link: if you are directing the response to me, you need to prefix your response with my nick or it will be missed
[05:54] <thoreauputic> B-rabbit_: yes, either a 32 bit chroot or installing 32 bit Ubuntu
[05:54] <allorder> ok thx
[05:54] <Dr_Link> OK, bulmer.
[05:54] <thoreauputic> B-rabbit_: there may be other ways
[05:54] <Dr_Link> bulmer: It's an open AP without encryption keys
[05:54] <sharperguy> where can i find out more about the feisty-commercial repo?
[05:54] <khandi> i was wondering if anyone could lend me a hand figuring out how to acces my NFTS harddrive with my Kubuntu OS

[05:55] <twofclubs> Hi i'm having problems with getting openoffice to use my black print cartridge...the black print cartridge is brand new...but it insists on using the color print cartridge to spit out purple letters...any ideas?
[05:55] <profanephobia> b-rabbit; honestly no matter what you do 64bit doesnt work well with flash not untill adobe makes it
[05:55] <daynah> CINorris, your problem isn't really a problem, it's something pretty cool and creative. I don't have my fancy IRC client right now... do you have one where it'll list all the channels on the freenode server? IF you do, try to list them all, and see if theres one about Ubuntu Art (all the Ubuntu channels start with #ubuntu- ). That way, it'll be quieter. You problem certainly is appropriate here, but I think there should be a channel
[06:07] <Faptastic> Anyone knows how to prevent frequent Nmap Xmas scan on Ubuntu?
[06:07] <Eclipsor> does LILO just have issues with booting from LVM volumes? it worked before when I was using feisty :\
[06:07] <f00bar2k> how can I stop my external ip resolving to my router from within my network? Externally if i go to my external IP it forwards to a webserver on an internal machine, but going to my external ip from within the network goes to my router.
[06:07] <ClNorris> daynah, thank you for your support. I will check other channels.
[06:07] <Anlar> Faptastic: you really don't have to do anything about it?
[06:07] <Spork> crap!  i accidently deleted my /etc/modules what do i do!?
[06:07] <janeppo> /leave
[06:07] <Spork> please help :(
[06:07] <chikita> i cant print documents, how do i fix that?
[06:07] <profanephobia> spork: look in your trash
[06:07] <thoreauputic> Eclipsor: are you using lilo by choice? ubuntu uses grub by default...
[06:07] <Spork> i did it from the command line
[06:07] <bulmer> Faptastic: perhaps you can enable your iptables rules and filter those out? i dont know the patters of xmas scan btw
[06:07] <allorder> DWSR: E: Couldn't find package libgtk
[06:07] <dgeorge> how do i go about updating my java... looks like frostwire requires 1.5... i have 1.4
[06:07] <Eclipsor> thoreauputic: I had to use the alternate install cd for ubuntu
[06:07] <Piddy> profanephobia: The Ubuntu forums say this in the Compiz Fusion tutorial: " add the folloing to your /etc/apt/sources.list: sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list".. Now.. how to do this?
[06:07] <Eclipsor> so I suppose that noe uses lilo instead of grub
[06:07] <Eclipsor> since it gave me no choice
[06:07] <daynah> CINorris, I hope they're in theri channel. :) If so, you'll have a very strong team who I'm sure would love to have another eager person. :)
[06:07] <thoreauputic> Eclipsor: the alternate CD uses grub too :)
[06:07] <Eclipsor> :\
[06:07] <Eclipsor> odd
[06:07] <Eclipsor> any way I can change to grub now? :p
[06:07] <thoreauputic> Eclipsor: yes, install it :)
[06:07] <RGautier> For ubuntu server addition - how can I get the screen to go to sleep like it used to on my FC4 install?
[06:07] <Spork> profanephobia, i did it through an su command as root
[06:07] <Anlar> Spork: feisty?
[06:07] <Spork> yes
[06:07] <Eclipsor> now for the question, how do I install grub
[06:07] <profanephobia> piddy: an easier way is to go to system -> admin -> software sources and third party and add it there
[06:07] <Eclipsor> all I have is a very basic shell
[06:07] <profanephobia> spork: damn
[06:07] <thoreauputic> Eclipsor: sudo apt-get install grub, I assume :)
[06:07] <Spork> any ideas? :(
[06:07] <ramseize> is there a way to access read/write NTFS Files?
[06:07] <DWSR> bulmer: It's lost my AP again.
[06:07] <DWSR> can't find it.
[06:07] <unagi> what is the ffmpeg command to convert .avi to image sequence?
[06:07] <Eclipsor> I've done that before
[06:07] <allorder> DWSR: E: Couldn't find package libgtk
[06:07] <Dr_Link> bulmer: Yes I'm connected physically to the router.... or I have done that before and I can get a wired connection... but I'm having trouble with wireless
[06:07] <Eclipsor> but it still booted lilo
[06:07] <DWSR> !ntfs-3g > ramseize

[06:07] <bulmer> Dr_Link if you have been getting a connection to your wireless..seems its working..however wireless does not guarantee acess all the time

[06:07] <DWSR> bulmer: When it was running Windows, it could sit right where it is now and get an almost perfect signal. It's definitely within range, because this computer is sitting right beside it and getting a good signal.

[06:08] <khandi> ok, i got the NTFS tool now... but i can't seem the open the program itself. it does not appaer to have a icon in front of it's title in my K-menu. is anyone familiar with this problem?
[06:08] <thoreauputic> mattgyver83: yes, there's a blank icon field IIRC
[06:08] <profanephobia> piddy: well do this step by step first open a terminal
[06:08] <DWSR> bulmer: What do you suggest?
[06:08] <bulmer> DWSR sometimes the signal strength is also too strong and saturates your receiver..
[06:08] <Piddy> profanephobia: done
[06:08] <DWSR> I'm not right beside the AP or anything.

[06:08] <unagi> does anyone know a way to convert .avi to image sequence of tga?
[06:08] <bulmer> DWSR look into the driver capabilities if anything you can trim the sensitivity or whatever
[06:08] <DWSR> I'm a few rooms away. It should be fine. It's been sitting here for a while, and it does get signal, it just seems to have lost it.
[06:08] <profanephobia> piddy: now copy and paste this:   sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[06:08] <khandi> @Geek, ok, i got the NTFS tool now... but i can't seem the open the program itself. it does not appaer to have a icon in front of it's title in my K-menu.

[06:09] <bulmer> DWSR also wireless stuff does not guarantee that connectivity 100%
[06:09] <thoreauputic> mattgyver83: heh :)
[06:09] <Geek> khandi: its been a while but i recall you needed to edit a config file, and then mount the drive
[06:09] <DWSR> bulmer: I want connectivity to be at least as good as it was on Windows, which was 95%.
[06:09] <Piddy> profanephobia: Yeah. now what?
[06:09] <unagi> wow anlar do you have to be rude about it
[06:09] <DWSR> That's not a lot to ask, I don't think.
[06:10] <unagi> perhaps....no just a thought.....maybe i didnt see anyone reply
[06:10] <unagi> oh my god is that possible?!
[06:10] <khandi> @Geek, the website said i should install the app. and then when i start it, it would recognize my NTFS drive. but i will not even start ;)

[06:11] <Jack_Sparrow> DWSR: Do you think there may also be the possibility that Linux gives you true reading and MS gives you what you want to see....
[06:11] <bulmer> DWSR you need to start responding with a prefixed of my nick, or else it will be missed
[06:11] <Geek> i never used NTFS config, ever...

[06:28] <multtraxxx> thx frye
[06:28] <thoreauputic> Injen: they are *very* similar
[06:28] <Eclipsor> awesome, thanks
[06:28] <Injen> I know.
[06:28] <Piddy> profanephobia: NICE! It worked:D
[06:28] <Geek> Injen: its mainly packages i think. both use apt and debs, etc.
[06:28] <barbie> how to install ubuntu bootloader, i m on ubuntu machine and want to install bootloader on a usb disk having an ubuntu install...
[06:28] <profanephobia> piddy: thank god
[06:28] <thoreauputic> Injen: what in particular?
[06:28] <LiberCogito> Injen: Ubuntu actually has a regular release cycle.
[06:28] <Piddy> profanephobia: Anything else I should do? ^^
[06:28] <profanephobia> piddy: sudo apt-get install compiz compiz-gnome compizconfig-settings-manager compiz-fusion-plugins-extra compiz-fusion-plugins-unofficial libcompizconfig-backend-gconf
[06:28] <profanephobia> piddy: that installs everything you need
[06:29] <darksama> holaaaaaaa
[06:29] <Pici> !es | darksama
[06:29] <ubotu> darksama: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[06:29] <Injen> ubuntu automatically allows root ssh access, <-- kinda things I want to know.
[06:29] <Piddy> profanephobia: Ah, nice, thank you so much!
[06:29] <verboz> hi all
[06:29] <fyrestrtr> Injen: other than the eyecandy, there is very little 'core' difference.
[06:29] <profanephobia> piddy: welcome
[06:29] <Skeet> Hey guys what is the best video card to use for beryl?
[06:29] <DWSR> Are firefox plugins OS independant? If I have a bunch of plugins installed on Windows, can I take the XPIs and install them on Linux?
[06:29] <crazy_> any realplayer for feisty fawn PPC?
[06:29] <thoreauputic> Injen: well, but Ubuntu doesn't have a root password by default
[06:29] <darksama> nene que no entiendo naaaaa
[06:29] <fyrestrtr> DWSR: yes
[06:30] <DWSR> fyrestrtr: Do you know about FEBE?
[06:30] <Pici> SWAT: Some of them are.
[06:30] <darksama> joo
[06:30] <Pici> er
[06:30] <Pici> DWSR: Some of them are.
[06:30] <Injen> Which is why I ponder why ubuntu enables it by default :)
[06:30] <thoreauputic> Injen: heh
[06:30] <barbie> anyone, please tell me how to install bootloader
[06:30] <knnyhckr> does the build-packege come with the install cd?
[06:30] <Pici> !grub | barbie
[06:30] <ubotu> barbie: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[06:30] <thoreauputic> Injen: I guess if there's no root password it doesn't work anywway :)
[06:31] <Skeet> What is the best video card to use for beryl?
[06:31] <Injen> :D
[06:31] <thoreauputic> Injen: but this is configurable of course
[06:31] <darksama> holaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
[06:31] <crazy_> I cannot find realplayer for ubuntu PPC
[06:31] <DWSR> You can set a root password. :-)
[06:31] <Pici> !root
[06:31] <ubotu> do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[06:31] <fyrestrtr> how can ubuntu automatically allow root ssh access, when the server isn't even installed by default?
[06:31] <thoreauputic> darksama: do you have anything relevant to say?
[06:31] <Piddy> profanephobia: looks like it's done.. How do I enable it? xD
[06:31] <Eclipsor> skeet: mine does fine :P geforce 8800gts
[06:31] <Injen> I'd just disable root ssh access
[06:31] <hidden_> ?
[06:31] <DWSR> you can still login as root.
[06:31] <ribando_> Pici nah...its been always real fast, it started today...lol...ever since I started the computer, I didnt really restart, all I was doing, was just restart the X, but when I restarted the computer, its taking a long time in the loading screen of ubuntu, and once it gets half way through, it makes a beep.
[06:31] <Skeet> ok thank you
[06:31] <darksama> que ddices
[06:31] <darksama> ???
[06:31] <DWSR> sudo chpass
[06:31] <DWSR> or whatever the right command is.
[06:31] <Eclipsor> Skeet: you will want to get the proprietary drivers for it though
[06:31] <LiberCogito> DWSR: yes, but not automatically, you have to set it.
[06:32] <Pici> ribando_: It might be fscking (filesystem check), It does this once every 30 boots or so.
[06:32] <Eclipsor> wait, beryl.... yeah, nevermind, you'd do that already
[06:32] <Eclipsor> >.>
[06:32] <fyrestrtr> ribando_: probably it is doing a disk check. Reboot, edit the grub boot line and remove 'quiet' from the line and see.
[06:32] <Pici> ribando_: That takes a bit of time.
[06:32] <fyrestrtr> DWSR: sudo -i
[06:32] <crazy_> is there a reaplayer for ubuntu 7.04 on PPC
[06:32] <DWSR> fyrestrtr: Thanks. :-)
[06:32] <ribando_> Pici but i've restarted 3 times, now, and all 3 of them, took too long
[06:33] <thoreauputic> crazy_: yes but it's hard to find...
[06:33] <Pici> ribando_: Did you ever completely start up?
[06:33] <thoreauputic> crazy_: it's hidden away on the helix site I think
[06:33] <ribando_> fyrestrtr edit the grub boot line?and how to do that?
[06:33] <fyrestrtr> hit the 'e' key
[06:33] <crazy_> I got helix player install but cannot player real media file
[06:33] <khandi> @geek - well, with your help i was able to figure it out :D thanks a lot!
[06:34] <Geek> khandi: cool ;)
[06:34] <W9ZEB> is there a good way to get Gizmo, and/or Skype on 64bit Fiesty?
[06:34] <ribando_> Pici humn...it seems that I didnt explain it correctly, its starting up perfectly fine, I got dual boot, but once I choose ubuntu, it starts loading, right...that is when it takes too long, not when the computer is starting up!
[06:34] <fyrestrtr> is there a reason you are running 64 bit?
[06:35] <ribando_> crazy_ install real player
[06:35] <thoreauputic> crazy_: https://player.helixcommunity.org/2004/downloads/  <-- use the installer for ppc
[06:35] <Skeet> ok what is the best video card that runs beryl thats not 200 dollers
[06:35] <W9ZEB> fyrestrtr: yes, the 32bit runs like crap on this hardware.....  bios troubles make it not terribly *nix friendly at all.
[06:35] <thoreauputic> ribando_: he needs ppc
[06:35] <crazy_> ribando: cannot find realplayer for PPC ubuntu 7.04
[06:35] <Pici> ribando_: Try fyrestrtr's suggest and see if it is indeed fscking the harddrive, if it is, just let it go. Otherwise come back and let us know what the errors are.
[06:35] <fyrestrtr> damn, what hardware do you have?
[06:35] <Music_Shuffle> Skeet, lots will for under 200...
[06:35] <unagi> anyone know the command line to convert .avi to a .tga sequence
[06:36] <thoreauputic> crazy_: I just gave you a link - choose the real player for ppc on that page
[06:36] <josemaria> hola!
[06:36] <W9ZEB> fyrestrtr: it's an HP DV6255 notebook....  problems are mostly bios related.
[06:36] <Skeet> i need one thats like80 bucks
[06:36] <ribando_> Pici shouldnt it warn me that is doing that?otherwise, how is the user supposed to know :S
[06:37] <MilitantPotato> In ubuntu, how do I format a floppy?
[06:37] <fyrestrtr> W9ZEB: I think you can, but you have to run it in a chroot environment; similar to running flash.
[06:37] <Music_Shuffle> Skeet, PCI-express x16, right?
[06:37] <Pici> ribando_: I dont know.  I agree it should say something about it.
[06:37] <TheCreationist> What is the command to restart a network?  My friend's Feisty box won't connect through her cable modem (although it recognizes her ethernet controller)
[06:37] <fyrestrtr> W9ZEB: that is how I would try it.
[06:37] <fyrestrtr> TheCreationist: sudo /etc/init.d/network restart
[06:37] <W9ZEB> fyrestrtr: nod nod.  I actually used one of the opensource flash projects to avoid having to mess with the chroot bit.  I can live without skype / gizmo.  just figured I'd ask.
[06:38] <MilitantPotato> How do I format a floppy disk?
[06:38] <unagi> whats a floppy disk
[06:38] <SORMANOV> how can i install Ubuntu server from an usb stick ?
[06:38] <MilitantPotato> heh unagi
[06:38] <marC-> Is there any way to enabled remote desktop on my ubuntu box running kde from cmmand line so a rdp into my ubuntu box?
[06:38] <unagi> yes MilitantPotato?
[06:38] <Geek> Unagi: a long time ago...
[06:38] <CP-Paul> Hey All
[06:38] <unagi> hehe
[06:38] <MilitantPotato> I'm trying to flash my wife's PC, I need to format the floppy to put the files on it
[06:39] <unagi> your wife needs to flash me
[06:39] <fyrestrtr> hey hey, what you do in the bedroom is your business
[06:39] <ConstyXIV> compiz seems to have killed my virtual desktops.  how do i get them back?
[06:39] <unagi> i mean her own pc
[06:39] <unagi> ok im sorry ill shut up
[06:39] <bulmer> lol@unagi
[06:39] <Geek> just use mkdosfs ?
[06:39] <SORMANOV> anyone ?
[06:39] <JWynia> marC: install freenx on the server and you can use any of the NX clients to remotely connect.
[06:39] <unagi> ConstyXIV: compiz-tray-icon
[06:39] <ribando_> Pici oki doki, I'll follow fyrestrtr suggestion...thank u both
[06:39] <unagi> right click and properties
[06:39] <thoreauputic> unagi: vulgarity will get you kicked :)
[06:39] <crazy_> thoreauputi: it is a .bin file. haha I am new kids on the block for linux, how to install it
[06:39] <stuart-> aw man i dno't have a taskbar in xfce. what gives? xfce4-panel is already running
[06:39] <unagi> awww was that really that vulgar? =(
[06:39] <chikita> printing on canon bjc-1000 takes too long, what can i do?
[06:39] <unagi> lol
[06:39] <MilitantPotato> It just says mount

[06:40] <Skeet> ok thank you
[06:40] <Music_Shuffle> Skeet, pretty much any of the first few will do just fine.
[06:40] <fyrestrtr> chikita: get a faster printer, or enable spooling.
[06:40] <Music_Shuffle> GL :)
[06:40] <CP-Paul> Can anyone recommend a VPN client, i'll be connecting to a windows network. KVpnc seems to bomb out every few minutes :(
[06:40] <Eclipsor> thoreauputic: went through the install, but the bootloader option was Install LILO
[06:40] <Eclipsor> :\
[06:40] <thoreauputic> crazy_: make it executable - chmod +x blahblah.bin , then run it with for example ./blah.bin
[06:40] <chikita> how do i enable spooling?
[06:40] <Eclipsor> either that or no bootloadder
[06:40] <chikita> besides it wotks perfectly on xp
[06:40] <thoreauputic> Eclipsor: mysterious
[06:41] <Music_Shuffle> fyrestrtr, Yeah, but then there's the downside of the...unknown actual link that bothers some people.
[06:41] <crazy_> thoreauputi: can show step by step
[06:41] <Eclipsor> thoreauputic: at least my boot partition isnt in an LVM, thank god :)
[06:41] <fyrestrtr> chikita: the fact that it works perfectly on xp has no bearing on how it will work in linux
[06:41] <thoreauputic> crazy_: it should ask you some questions - might be better to use  sudo ./blah.bin
[06:42] <thoreauputic> crazy_: it's a while since I installed it on my iBook - but it works quite well
[06:42] <chikita> well fyrestrtr, i thought it would work too on linux caus eevery freeking geek says that linux is more stable but now i can see its not
[06:42] <MilitantPotato> Is kfloppy decent?
[06:42] <Piddy> Ok, uhm. I installed Compiz Fusion just 5 mins ago. How do I open the cube?
[06:42] <crazy_> thoreauputi: it said no suitable application to open it...
[06:42] <thoreauputic> crazy_: by the way, most rtsp and real files will playe on ppc ubuntu with gxine and ffmpeg IIRC
[06:43] <fyrestrtr> Piddy: hold down ctrl alt and then hold down the left mouse button and drag
[06:43] <rpedro> Piddy: ctrl + alt + 'down arrow' ?
[06:43] <thoreauputic> crazy_: umm - you used the commands I suggested?
[06:43] <crazy_> thoreauputi: ubuntu just refuse to let me install gxine
[06:43] <unagi> MilitantPotato: have you tried mkfs yet?
[06:43] <rpedro> Piddy: oh, no that's filmstrip mode
[06:43] <MilitantPotato> unagi no
[06:43] <thoreauputic> crazy_: nonsense - I have it installed here
[06:43] <crazy_> thoreauputi: I am totally new, only know how to use apt-get
[06:44] <Eclipsor> sudo apt-get ?
[06:44] <braniff> anyone found a way to buy music from iTunes store and burn it to cd using linux ?
[06:44] <Piddy> fyrestrtr: Nothing happens...

[06:44] <fyrestrtr> is ogg lossy?
[06:44] <thoreauputic> !repos| crazy_
[06:44] <ubotu> crazy_: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[06:44] <thoreauputic> fyrestrtr: yes
[06:44] <Geek> braniff: itunes store music would have DRM... remove that and its mp4
[06:44] <bulmer> braniff airlines..way way back
[06:44] <Geek> fyrestrtr: yes
[06:44] <crazy_> thoreauputi: add/remove ?
[06:44] <unravel> lossy, but sweet
[06:44] <ali110> when i enable desktop effects  from system --> prefrances  i get all my screen white and cant see any thing and after few clicks it gets back and desktop effects is not enabled  how should i do it !
[06:45] <thoreauputic> crazy_: read the urls from ubotu, please
[06:45] <braniff> bulmer: braniff is from waay back heh
[06:45] <crazy_> I read already many times
[06:45] <fyrestrtr> is there any audible difference betweek mp3 and ogg -- similar bitrate?
[06:45] <Piddy> Anyone know what to do?
[06:46] <thoreauputic> fyrestrtr: some say ogg is better at similar bitrates
[06:46] <fyrestrtr> Piddy: as others (including myself) have told you, ask in #ubuntu-effects
[06:46] <Geek> depends on the encoder...
[06:46] <thoreauputic> fyrestrtr: I can't really hear the difference :)
[06:46] <braniff> Geek, so what you are saying is: remove the DRM and life is good (mp4 to mp3 converters are readily available)
[06:46] <fyrestrtr> that's what I thought @ Therock_
[06:46] <fyrestrtr> err, thoreauputic
[06:46] <Piddy> Fyrestrtr: Nobody answers in that channel.
[06:47] <thoreauputic> fyrestrtr: i got it :)
[06:47] <Eclipsor> thoreauputic: eh, where can I find grub :\ so I can install it off of a CD
[06:47] <Geek> braniff: you can burn a MP4 i think, with the right converter
[06:47] <ali110> when i enable desktop effects  from system --> prefrances  i get all my screen white and cant see any thing and after few clicks it gets back and desktop effects is not enabled  how should i do it ! any one can help please
[06:47] <Destroyertje> can someone help me with skype on xubuntu?
[06:47] <Geek> de-drming apple's stuff though.. its an arms race ;)
[06:47] <thoreauputic> Eclipsor: umm, the gnu.org site I guess
[06:47] <riotkittie> i've never noticed a difference in sound quality when bitrates are comparible but that may be the way that i encode. my oggs tend to be smaller, sizewise, tho. or at least they did. <moment of silence for the dead 500gb drive>
[06:47] <fyrestrtr> ali110: check if your system needs restricted drivers
[06:47] <W9ZEB> ali110: make sure you're set to 24bit color in your xorg.conf
[06:47] <ernest> how can i put openoffice icons in blubuntu?
[06:48] <thoreauputic> Eclipsor: never needed to do  it but I assume you can get it there
[06:48] <fyrestrtr> what tha blub is blubuntu?
[06:48] <ali110> fyrestrtr: how !! (this is my first day on linux) :)
[06:48] <ernest> fyrestrtr: the icons in openoffice are missing
[06:48] <thoreauputic> Eclipsor: http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/
[06:48] <MilitantPotato> Hmm
[06:48] <Piddy> sigh..
[06:48] <Eclipsor> its not just sources?
[06:48] <MilitantPotato> it's not writing to the floppy
[06:48] <fyrestrtr> ali110: click on system, then administration, then restricted drivers manager
[06:49] <ali110> W9ZEB: as i sayed  to fyrestrtr this is my first day on linux so i dont know how to check xorg.conf
[06:49] <thoreauputic> Eclipsor: I don't know, to be honest
[06:49] <MorbZ> hey guys
[06:49] <CP-Paul> Can anyone recommend a VPN client, i'll be connecting to a windows network. KVpnc seems to bomb out every few minutes :(
[06:49] <thoreauputic> Eclipsor: does the Carla Schroeder article have any download suggestions?
[06:49] <fyrestrtr> CP-Paul: are you sure that's not a fault of the configuration and not the client?
[06:49] <Eclipsor> not that I saw
[06:49] <thoreauputic> hmm
[06:50] <MorbZ> ubuntu does only work with a lot of errors on my dell laptop
[06:50] <Eclipsor> if I use a regular livecd without lvm support.... would grub be able to install ok with that? :\
[06:50] <ali110> fyrestrtr: yes it needs an ATI accelerated driver how to get it
[06:50] <fyrestrtr> ali110: click on the check box
[06:50] <Eclipsor> because all but my boot partition are in lvm volumes
[06:50] <alesan> is it possible to install a wiki system?
[06:50] <Piddy> fyrestrtr: Like... There's not 1 active person in ubuntu-effects....
[06:50] <thoreauputic> Eclipsor: if you have another linux install with grub on it you can make a two-stage boot floppy or similar by installing it to the media
[06:50] <B3y0nd> hello all
[06:51] <thoreauputic> Eclipsor: running out of information for you now, though :)
[06:51] <unagi> anyone know the ffmpeg command for converting .avi to an image sequence or how to mass rename files?
[06:51] <fyrestrtr> ali110: then, once its it done, restart the computer. Then try enabling the effects again
[06:51] <Eclipsor> heh
[06:51] <Eclipsor> I'll see what google has to say
[06:51] <thoreauputic> Eclipsor: always a good plan :)
[06:51] <Piddy> So, can anyone help me out with the cube?
[06:51] <MilitantPotato> piddy whats wrong?
[06:51] <Eclipsor> would be easier if grub would work in the rescue cd
[06:51] <unagi> =*(
[06:52] <AngryElf_> I'm trying to write an ISO to a DVD and it keeps telling me that I have the wrong media in the drive -- It's a DVD-R which is one of the listed available types.  I've tried several other discs -- any ideas?
[06:52] <fyrestrtr> Piddy: System > Preferences > CompizConfig Settings Manager
[06:52] <Piddy> Even though i press Ctrl + Alt, it doesn't show up..
[06:52] <crazy_> GPL licensed means free?
[06:52] <Piddy> I'm there.
[06:52] <thoreauputic> Eclipsor: do you happen to have a Knoppix disk lying around?
[06:52] <Piddy> And the cube is checked.
[06:52] <MilitantPotato> ctrl alt hold down mouse 1
[06:52] <tcpsyn> I just noticed that when compiling stuff in ubuntu it uses march=pentiumpro
[06:52] <Geek> hmm
[06:52] <Piddy> still nothing
[06:52] <tcpsyn> is there somewhere I can set that to my arch?
[06:52] <MilitantPotato> open terminal
[06:52] <Piddy> me?
[06:52] <Piddy> ok
[06:52] <MilitantPotato> type in compiz --replace & disown
[06:52] <MilitantPotato> yes
[06:52] <riotkittie> Piddy: you cant get the cube to show up?  are you using desktop effects, or something else?

[06:53] <unagi> if i could find someone that knows how to do this they would be helping me out a great deal

[06:54] <Eclipsor> thoreauputic: no, but I could burn one quick
[06:54] <MilitantPotato> why is the floppy not writing files I paste to it?

[06:54] <thoreauputic> Eclipsor: well, I'm sure knoppix woul;d have grub
[06:54] <Piddy> 6 windows.
[06:54] <mroth> i had a brand new install, activated compositing, and it froze. now i can't sign back in.
[06:54] <stuart-> fyrestrtr, can i use ssh through windows?
[06:54] <mattgyver83> is anyone familiar with Songbird?
[06:54] <mroth> logging in with oem just yields a blue screen with a moving mouse
[06:54] <fyrestrtr> Piddy: hit alt + f2, type compiz --replace and hit enter.
[06:54] <ribando> fyrestrtr ur suggestion worked out fine about the loading time, thanks alot...Pici thanks ;)
[06:54] <thoreauputic> stuart-: putty
[06:54] <Piddy> i already did that
[06:55] <Piddy> but ok
[06:55] <riotkittie> putty <3
[06:55] <fyrestrtr> Piddy: then, wait for a second, and then hold down alt + ctrl and hit the right arrow key. Your desktop should rotate
[06:55] <mroth> how can i troubleshoot my xubuntu login freeze?
[06:55] <stuart-> thoreauputic, alright. cool
[06:55] <mroth> brand new installation of xubuntu can't log in
[06:55] <bulmer> mroth: try to login in a console and then restart gdm perhaps
[06:55] <Piddy> Nope nothing..
[06:55] <riotkittie> heeeeeee. my husband is so jealous of my cube. :D
[06:56] <fyrestrtr> mroth: you might need restricted drivers.
[06:56] <bulmer> mroth console is ctrl+alt+f1...f6
[06:56] <fyrestrtr> Piddy: then it is not enabled.
[06:56] <MorbZ> born to be root
[06:56] <ribando> Piddy having problems with compizfusion?
[06:56] <riotkittie> Piddy: have you tried turning it off, then turning it back on? <the cube effect, that is>
[06:56] <bulmer> riotkittie: me too am jealous of your cube..
[06:56] <Piddy> no i didn't
[06:56] <Piddy> Wait, I'll try
[06:56] <fyrestrtr> Piddy: if you have wobbly windows, then it is working.
[06:56] <unagi> ok does anyone know how to mass re name in ubuntu or how to convert .avi to .tga with control over the output name format
[06:57] <mroth> bulmer: i've killed gdm but running it again does nothing
[06:57] <Eclipsor> unagi: man rename
[06:57] <ali> fyrestrtr: i have installed ther restricted driver and restarted the system now when i go to system --> preferences--> desktop effects i get a message telling me that the composite extention is not available
[06:57] <Falstius> unagi: you can use the 'rename' command to mass rename a bunch of files from the command line.
[06:57] <mroth> fyrestrtr: i don't need restricted because its an intel, and it worked fine for the few minutes before i enabled compositing
[06:57] <mroth> bulmer: doesn't xubuntu use a different display manager
[06:58] <mroth> bulmer: or is it gdm
[06:58] <riotkittie> bulmer: my cube is awesome. <3  and it only took 52 hours, 5 coasters, 1 dapper install + 2 distr-upgrades + 1 hosed feisty install + nearly killing my win partitions + a fresh feisty install + a lot of profanity to acchieve :D
[06:58] <unagi> can i use it to find 0000000 and rename it to file.
[06:58] <Piddy> There are no wobbly windows.. And I just turned cube on and off.
[06:58] <total> hey... i just install kernel update 2.6.22-9 as described on ubuntugeek.com and now gdm fails to load and keep getting an undefined symbol: g_option_context_new error when trying to do an apt-get to try resolve it
[06:58] <Piddy> Should I try rebooting?
[06:58] <stuart-> what if i can't install putty somewhere and would like to still be able to access my pc remotely?
[06:58] <riotkittie> Piddy: what kind of gfx card do you have?
[06:58] <unagi> i swear.......man documents never make sense to me
[06:58] <Piddy> a crappy nVIDIA Geforce 4 MX 420 I think.
[06:58] <Falstius> unagi: yes
[06:58] <Piddy> Something like that
[06:59] <riotkittie> eh, that should be able to handle it, i think.
[06:59] <ribando> Piddy add compiz --replace in ur startup programs and then restart X by doing Ctrl+Alt+Bk Space
[06:59] <Piddy> But my brother in law said it should work.
[06:59] <ali> fyrestrtr: i have installed ther restricted driver and restarted the system now when i go to system --> preferences--> desktop effects i get a message telling me that the composite extention is not available
[06:59] <riotkittie> i have a crappy ati x300 myself :|
[06:59] <Piddy> um, ok.
[06:59] <mroth> Piddy: my geforce 4 mx runs great with beryl. its not a crappy card (:
[06:59] <thoreauputic> stuart-: if you are using gnome you have rdp - look under Internet - terminal Server Client
[06:59] <Piddy> Hm..
[06:59] <Geek> hmm
[06:59] <Piddy> Well, yes it is a crappy card:P anyway:P
[06:59] <mroth> how do i restart gdm from a tty?
[07:00] <Piddy> startup programs.... hmm... where are those?
[07:00] <bottiger> what is the best way to see how much memory an app is using?
[07:00] <su-hoens`rZ> anyone know why the kubuntu alt cd installer doesn't locate 3 of my 4 sata drives even though the bios and the main cd find them fine? :(
[07:00] <riotkittie> Piddy: is this a recent install? have you made changes to xorg.conf? installed the nvidia binaries? anything like that.
[07:00] <thoreauputic> mroth:  sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[07:00] <Anlar> mroth: sudo /etc/init.d/xdm restart
[07:00] <riotkittie> bottiger: at a term, type top ....
[07:00] <Piddy> riotkittie: no
[07:00] <unagi>  rename s/\.bak$// *.bak..............i know what that line does but i dont understand what its saying.......what does s/\ mean and where in that line is it saying to strip the extension?
[07:00] <mroth> thoreauputic: kewl.
[07:00] <fyrestrtr> unagi: for file in *.avi ; do mv $file `echo $file | sed 's/\(.*?\)\.avi/1.tga/'` ; done
[07:00] <riotkittie> bottiger: or, on the system menu, there should be an app. i'm not sure which tho
[07:00] <bottiger> riotkittie: sure - I remember reading an article about that wasn't very reliable
[07:00] <Anlar> fyrestrtr: ;-D
[07:00] <unagi> omg thats the line ive been looking for where did you find that
[07:00] <ribando> Piddy click on System then Prefferences then Sessions and in Startup Programs tab, type compiz --replace in both blank spaces
[07:00] <Eclipsor> fyrestrtr: yes, much better :P
[07:00] <fyrestrtr> unagi: tryi it on a test directory first, I wrote that off the top of my head.
[07:01] <mroth> thoreauputic: uh, i'm running a xubuntu install...running gdm from the recovery console yields a ubuntu login screen.
[07:01] <unagi> is that perl?
[07:01] <meff> hiya, im trying to install ubuntu but when it does 'vgchange -a y' during install to activate my lvm's it freezes .. is there a workaround?
[07:01] <crazy_> thoreauputi: where can I gind gxine and ffmpeg IIRC
[07:01] <mroth> thoreauputic: and...it just...sits there...after i put the login info
[07:01] <ConstyXIV> what's the name of compiz's expose clone so i don't have to keep saying "compiz's expose clone"?
[07:01] <mroth> thoreauputic: just a blank screen with the mouse pointer
[07:01] <thoreauputic> mroth: hmm - don't know then
[07:01] <ali> fyrestrtr: iam ali110 sorry my name changed due the restart,  i have installed ther restricted driver and restarted the system now when i go to system --> preferences--> desktop effects i get a message telling me that the composite extention is not available

[07:02] <riotkittie> brb

[07:04] <thoreauputic> wtz: ubotu is a bot :)
[07:04] <crazy_> wtz: u are talking to a robo
[07:04] <unagi> that command isnt working
[07:04] <tcpsyn> Anyone? Know how I can change the march compiler flag?
[07:04] <wtz> bzz, I am a robot too :-)
[07:05] <khin> i installed the php5-mysql package but my php test script did not recognize the test mysql commands... so what should i do
[07:05] <crazy_> wtz: :P
[07:05] <unagi> fyrestrtr: is that command suppose to convert the avi or rename.....because im trying to rename a bunch of .tga such as 000000001.tga<PHONE_NUMBER>02.tga to cold.001.tga and cold.002.tga
[07:05] <unagi> or convert the .avi to .tga with that name format
[07:05] <knnyhckr> hey guys, after i have ubuntu installed, whats the best way to install vista, just run the vista cd? or partition in ubuntu first? or prepare the bootloader first..?
[07:05] <fyrestrtr> unagi: convert and rename are not the same thing. Which do you want?
[07:06] <fyrestrtr> knnyhckr: best way is to install vista first.
[07:06] <tcpsyn> aye.
[07:06] <unagi> read above line
[07:06] <tcpsyn> vista first
[07:06] <fyrestrtr> unagi: read what I wrote first.
[07:06] <dxdt> knnyhckr: look up dual booting, but definitely vista first leaving space for ubuntu
[07:06] <unagi> i did
[07:06] <knnyhckr> oh ok :(
[07:06] <fyrestrtr> then answer my question.
[07:06] <Anlar> knnyhckr: the vista cd will handle it, but it will destroy your grub in any case
[07:06] <unagi> i just did
[07:06] <fyrestrtr> unagi: what do you want to do? rename the files?
[07:07] <ribando> knnyhckr did ur pc came pre-installed with vista?
[07:07] <knnyhckr> i guess ill do vista first, then when i go to install ubuntu, do i click on guided..use free space on vista partition i assume?
[07:07] <knnyhckr> ribando no.
[07:07] <unagi> 1 second let me copy and paster
[07:07] <neverblue> knnyhckr, virtual machine
[07:07] <ribando> knnyhckr oki doki
[07:07] <mroth> after logging in my mouse just sits...i know xubuntu works on this comp b/c it was running a fe minutes ago
[07:07] <unagi>  im trying to rename a bunch of .tga such as 000000001.tga<PHONE_NUMBER>02.tga to cold.001.tga and cold.002.tga or  convert the .avi to .tga with that name format
[07:07] <mroth> i can't seem to get X to respond to anything
[07:07] <Anlar> mroth: did you just do some stuff before it stopped working with sudo?
[07:07] <fyrestrtr> knnyhckr: install vista, do a custom partition, and leave unpartitioned space for ubuntu. Install vista as normal. Then install Ubuntu and choose 'largest free space' in the partition section of the install wizard.
[07:08] <neverblue> knnyhckr, if you are computer savy, you could rewrite the boot manager in XP/Vista
[07:08] <unagi> knnyhckr: definately do vista first
[07:08] <total>  trying to dpkg-reconfigure gdm... but this "update-desktop-database: symbol lookup error: update-desktop-database: undefined symbol: g_option_context_new" error keeps coming up
[07:08] <fyrestrtr> unagi: so which are you trying to do? If you just want to rename the files, then use the command, aptly called 'rename'. If you want to convert the files, use mencoder.
[07:08] <unagi> otherwise you are going to have to do all sorts of things with the vista boot loader and ull have to go through 2 boot loaders
[07:08] <mroth> Anlar: no. it was a brand new, minutes-old install via alternate cD. i booted, went to the display options, and checked the "enable compositing" option for transparent windows. then it froze, i rebooted and here i am
[07:08] <knnyhckr> fyrestarter.. thats what i initially wanted to do..but then the autopartitioner didnt notice that empty partition as available for automatic partioning, i would have had to pre partition it
[07:09] <unagi> either way fyrestrtr.......the command u gave me didnt work
[07:09] <DimitrisC> knnyhckr: If you have memory to spare then try virtual box. But no famous aero for you - although I prefer compiz fusion :-)
[07:09] <stuart-> where is firefox's logo located? i wanna edit my shortcut to use the firefox logo
[07:09] <knnyhckr> nah.. no memory to spare lol
[07:09] <fyrestrtr> knnyhckr: that's because in its infinite wisdom, vista will partition the empty space with ntfs. You need to (from within Vista) delete the partition.
[07:09] <thoreauputic> mroth: choose the failsafe terminal and kill anything to do with compiz etc
[07:09] <rockets> Is there a Kernel parameter I can use to make ubuntu ignore hard drive errors on boot, or not scan hard drives or not mount them.
[07:09] <rockets> This is from the Live cd I'm talking about
[07:09] <mroth> thoreauputic: oh from the gdm login screen, ok
[07:09] <thoreauputic> mroth: I think you need a vanilla window manager to log in
[07:10] <Anlar> mroth: okay, you can go to your home directory and rm -rf . :D to reset and delete everything :)
[07:10] <unagi> knnyhckr:  open firefox and go to google and search 'howto dual-boot vista and linux vista installed first' and click im feeling lucky
[07:10] <knnyhckr> well too late now im guessing, so starting from scratch.. just install vista.. then use the free space left and autopartition it with ubuntu?
[07:10] <mroth> Anlar: realllY?
[07:10] <thoreauputic> mroth: if compiz or whatever is misbehaving and you saved the previous session you will have this problem i think
[07:10] <RvGaTe> which ubuntu version should i use for a laptop... ?
[07:10] <Helmi> can anyone recommend a got gnome ftp client (not gftp)?
[07:10] <profanephobia> rvgate: feisty
[07:10] <thoreauputic> Helmi: nautilus can do ftp
[07:11] <rockets> Helmi, FOFF
[07:11] <crazy_> thoreauputi: still cannot find gxine
[07:11] <Eclipsor> wait, so is there a nice way to install windows *after* ubuntu?
[07:11] <bottiger> RvGaTe: the one you like :)
[07:11] <ks1> Helmi: there isnt one :P
[07:11] <mroth> thoreauputic: gotcha. i'm rebooting now
[07:11] <Kragnerac> RvGaTe: The latest stable version, 7.04 "Feisty Fawn"
[07:11] <Helmi> thoreauputic, i know it CAN - but i'm looking for a good ftp client
[07:11] <thoreauputic> crazy_: *sigh* then your sources are not complete
[07:11] <mroth> thoreauputic: what's the command to start xubuntu's default display manager
[07:11] <ks1> helmi: filezilla, kftpgrabber, other java based ones.
[07:11] <Helmi> rockets, thanks will look fort that
[07:11] <ks1> mroth: thunar
[07:11] <rockets> Helmi, its in the repos
[07:11] <ks1> mroth: sorry I misread.
[07:11] <RvGaTe> Kragnerac, profanephobia, what about the testing version? is that any good for a laptop? or would i be facing to much troubles?
[07:11] <mroth> ksl no worries
[07:11] <thoreauputic> Helmi: there's filezilla if you like that
[07:11] <crazy_> thoreauputi: what to add in source list?
[07:11] <mroth> ks1 no worries
[07:11] <thoreauputic> !info filezilla
[07:11] <ubotu> filezilla: Port of the famous Win32 graphical FTP client. In component universe, is optional. Version 3.0.0~beta7-0ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 763 kB, installed size 1980 kB
[07:12] <Helmi> thoreauputic, unfortunately not
[07:12] <DimitrisC> Eclipsor: Windows doesn't play nice when its not number 1. I wonder why lol.
[07:12] <profanephobia> rvgate: unless you want to help the devs i would recommened getting fiesty
[07:12] <thoreauputic> Helmi: then I'm running out of ideas :) I use lftp on the command line :)
[07:12] <unagi> knnyhckr: you can thank me later
[07:12] <czar^> i've been using 6.06 on amd64 laptop
[07:12] <czar^> works fine.
[07:12] <bottiger> n - jeg er sment overbevist om at det er den bedste klient derude
[07:13] <RvGaTe> profanephobia, ok, thx
[07:13] <profanephobia> welceom

[07:13] <hype_> anyone encoutering a bug with warsiw since latest libgl update?
[07:13] <hype_> warsow*
[07:13] <nothanks> I am having some problems with installing  MySQL... It just wont freaking work, it gives me "You are running kernel version blabla, and attempting to remove the same version" and so for...
[07:13] <mroth> thoreauputic: i can't login with failsafe GNOME b/c its not installed...this is xubuntu. should i select 'xfce' instaed?
[07:13] <bottiger> ubotu: it was just a mistake :)
[07:13] <thoreauputic> Helmi: I do mostly sftp and scp to be honest
[07:14] <jrib> nothanks: are you using APT to install it?
[07:14] <nothanks> yes
[07:14] <crazy_> thoreauputi: I did
[07:14] <thoreauputic> mroth: I guess so - alternatively do it from a tty ( ctrl-alt-f1 - 6 )
[07:14] <jrib> nothanks: try pastebinning the command and the full output to see if anyone is familiar with it
[07:14] <mroth> thoreauputic: do what from a tty
[07:14] <Helmi> thoreauputic, the problem is i do some really nasty 'single files in big dir hierarchies' stuff and a cli client is horror with that stuff
[07:14] <thoreauputic> crazy_: and you updated/reloaded, right ?
[07:14] <Helmi> though i love using vim and other non-gui stuff, thoreauputic

[07:15] <crazy_> thoreauputi: Yes I did
[07:15] <[MMOwned> Hey guys i have a really noobish problem. I have a file on my Hard drive that i cannot access because "im not the owner" how do i give myself privalages?
[07:15] <Geek> erm, whats the command line way of unzipping a file?
[07:15] <hype_> Geek , unzip
[07:15] <ClNorris> [MMOwned, i believe chown
[07:15] <celina> why do i get 30 fps while playing one game on linux and 60-80 when playing on windows?
[07:15] <jrib> [MMOwned: what file?
[07:15] <mroth> thoreauputic: running 'ps -A | grep com' yields nothing.
[07:15] <mroth> thoreauputic: i dont' think compiz is running at all
[07:15] <unagi> anyone know anything about mencoder?
[07:15] <Geek> hype_: i get a command not found
[07:15] <thoreauputic> crazy_: then I can't really help much - obviously somehow you have made a mistake, but it's hard to know what
[07:15] <jimcooncat> [MMOwned: that would be "sudo chown"
[07:15] <dxdt> [MMOwned: sudo chown yourusername file  but don't mess around with system files like this or you could mess something up.  Also look into chown and chmod for just the general feel of permissions
[07:16] <Music_Shuffle> celina, because ported games sometimes do that?  Dunno which games are worse about that though.
[07:16] <[MMOwned> i installed apache, PHP and Mysql using terminal and the WWW file is unaccessible
[07:16] <hype_> Geek , then activate universe repository and install unzip
[07:16] <celina> but when i was playing on my old computer
[07:16] <crazy_> thoreauputi: I just reinstall my PPC ubuntu 24 hrs ago
[07:16] <celina> with ubuntu
[07:16] <jrib> [MMOwned: what WWW file?  you mean /var/www?
