[02:42] <brenner> hehe
[02:42] <Nidah> hi
[02:42] <sixtymhz> Oh.  Maybe its because my face is always in the terminal and I really don't notice much about the gui.
[02:42] <KuDeTa> i tried installing kernel-package
[02:42] <Nidah> looking for help
[02:42] <KuDeTa> but doesn't seem to help
[02:42] <tushkee> Chousuke : open 2 message windows on GAIM....type something on the text box of the first window. copy it. then close it. Now, try to paste that text to the second window. IF YOU CAN. LOL.
[02:42] <Chousuke> tushkee: ah, that.
[02:43] <Nidah> i need help with grub and real playerinstall
[02:43] <milamber> @sixtymhz 've don that also for a while, buth my girlfriend didnt like lynx as a brwoser :d
[02:43] <heyjoe2> for the basic user, windows seems to let u play mp3s, use usbs and convert file formats without this much headache. plus amarok is buggy! argh
[02:43] <tushkee> Chousuke: is that GAIM specific?
[02:43] <visik7> I've follow this guid http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=107135 but gtk1 apps still so ugly
[02:43] <Chousuke> tushkee: no.
[02:43] <Chousuke> tushkee: that's because X sucks
[02:43] <IdleOne> !tell Nidah  about realplayer
[02:43] <heyjoe2> !realplayer
[02:43] <ubotu> I guess realplayer is http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[02:43] <tushkee> Chousuke: i see. man, that's like basic function in an OS.
[02:43] <scav> how can i add cups printers for just one user
[02:43] <Chousuke> tushkee: not really.
[02:43] <MasterC> hi
[02:43] <AngryElf> anyone have ibook experience----what's the best way to dual-boot ubuntu/osx on an ibook?
[02:43] <Chousuke> tushkee: it's a basic functionality of the GUI
[02:44] <Nidah> ok i downloaded the real player10 bin file
[02:44] <Chousuke> tushkee: but X sucks anyway
[02:44] <kimo> I will be installing dapper beta-4, are there any show stopper bugs, or should I go ahead ?
[02:44] <KuDeTa> plz help?
[02:44] <tushkee> Chousuke: okay, forgive my use of OS. but yeah, GUI.
[02:44] <Chousuke> tushkee: I think they're trying to come up with some clipboard-server solution for that.
[02:44] <KuDeTa> i just need to know how to get the kernel souce propperly ready?
[02:44] <Nidah> and tried using commands suggested in real.com to install it but terminal window says it cant find a bin file
[02:44] <HymnToLife> AngryElf> just the same way as dual booting Windows I guess
[02:44] <tushkee> Chousuke: not Ubuntu specific too right? just X in general?
[02:45] <brenner> Nidah: what command did you use?
[02:45] <Chousuke> tushkee: yeah.
[02:45] <HymnToLife> Nidah> why not just get a .deb and install it ?
[02:45] <Nidah> ok lemme see
[02:45] <rambo3> just  run it and use simlink to /usr/sbin/
[02:45] <tushkee> Chousuke: thx for the insights ;)
[02:45] <AngryElf> windows requires some tricky configs......i wouldn't think osx would since it's unix-like
[02:46] <Nidah> chmod a+x RealPlayer10GOLD.bin
[02:46] <AngryElf> windows to have the mbr in the first x sectors or something......i forgot exactly what it is
[02:46] <KuDeTa> lol
[02:46] <rambo3> mini grub
[02:46] <KuDeTa> plzzzz help?
[02:46] <Nidah> chmod: cannot access `RealPlayer10GOLD.bin': No such file or directory
[02:46] <Chousuke> AngryElf: iBook is PPC.
[02:46] <Sp4rKy> anyone does know how read a .flv file ?
[02:47] <brenner> Nidah: where did you save it?
[02:47] <kimo> anyone using sk98lin driver with ubuntu ? did u have to recompile the kernel!
[02:47] <AngryElf> i know.....i didn't think that had anything to do with it though
[02:47] <rambo3> Kudeta what do you mean?
[02:47] <Chousuke> AngryElf: that means you will not be able to use many proprietary plugins in Ubuntu PPC, including flash and w32codecs.
[02:47] <Chousuke> I don't know if Java for PPC linux exists.
[02:47] <KuDeTa> rambo3: im try to do this http://acx100.sourceforge.net/wiki/ACX
[02:47] <IdleOne> KuDeTa> you will probably find info about this at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCompileHowto
[02:47] <WindMill> What'sup
[02:48] <KuDeTa> i think i sould be doing the "within the kernel" part
[02:48] <KuDeTa> i installed make
[02:48] <Chousuke> AngryElf: also, Wine will not work in Ubuntu PPC either.
[02:48] <KuDeTa> kernel-package
[02:48] <rambo3> heh 100 people cliking at the link
[02:48] <KuDeTa> lol
[02:48] <renewip> hi, I've compiled my Firefox 1.5 by hand in Ubuntu 5.10. How to generate .DEB file now?
[02:48] <IdleOne> !ff1.5
[02:48] <ubotu> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
[02:48] <IdleOne> renewip> ^
[02:49] <rambo3> ok download kernel source that you need and put simlink to it in the same map  ln -s /usr/src/kernel-source* /usr/src/linux/
[02:49] <rambo3> !recompile
[02:49] <ubotu> rambo3: No idea, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[02:49] <rambo3> !kernel-source
[02:49] <ubotu> rambo3: Bugger all, I dunno. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[02:50] <KuDeTa> :(
[02:50] <KuDeTa> obutu u suck
[02:50] <Chousuke> KuDeTa: kernel sources are in linux-source
[02:50] <brenner> Nidah: where did you save it?
[02:50] <KuDeTa> chousuke
[02:50] <Hoxzer> has somebody here setup alsa for ts?
[02:50] <KuDeTa> which one do i use..im on amd64
[02:50] <jlinden_> how do i end message when im sending email with ssmtp from command line? :)
[02:50] <Chousuke> hmm
[02:51] <KuDeTa> and i thought i need an ubuntu specific one?
[02:51] <Chousuke> KuDeTa: linux-source should install the correct sources.
[02:51] <renewip> I mean how to generate .DEB file package from source code ?
[02:51] <Chousuke> renewip: it's not easy.
[02:51] <mikex> why would totem have jerky sound but good video?
[02:51] <Enthusiast78> jlinden_, Did you try a dot (.) in a line by itself?
[02:51] <IdleOne> renewip>  why do you want to do it the hard way?
[02:51] <IdleOne> !tell render  about ff1.5
[02:51] <IdleOne> follow those instructions
[02:51] <Chousuke> renewip: though you can use checkinstall if you want a crude hack just to wrap it in a .deb
[02:52] <jlinden_> Enthusiast78, it worked! thanks
[02:52] <Chousuke> renewip: properly debianising the sources means you must go read some documentation
[02:52] <KuDeTa> chousuke: so i do aptitue install linux-kernel? thats all thats necc?
[02:52] <KuDeTa> will that untar it to /usr/src/?
[02:52] <Chousuke> KuDeTa: should get you the sources, yes.
[02:53] <KuDeTa> or do i need to do that myself
[02:53] <Chousuke> in /usr/src/
[02:53] <renewip> Chousuke: which docs? plz!
[02:53] <KuDeTa> okk
[02:53] <KuDeTa> but u see i did that i think
[02:53] <Chousuke> renewip: Debian new maintainer's guide
[02:53] <KuDeTa> but part of the problem
[02:53] <KuDeTa> was that make wouldn't work
[02:53] <Chousuke> renewip: it's not easy.
[02:53] <KuDeTa> said it could not find the directory to build.. something to that affect
[02:54] <Chousuke> renewip: I doubt you'll succeed in packaging firefox if you've never done packaging before
[02:54] <renewip> thanks in advance
[02:54] <IdleOne> renewip>  try google " compil source how to "
[02:54] <mattafix> this ubuntu stuff is well crap
[02:54] <Chousuke> renewip: you should just install the pre-made packages.
[02:55] <IdleOne> mattafix>  whats up?
[02:55] <KuDeTa> chousuke.. this is the command i needed to use
[02:55] <KuDeTa> ...make -C /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build M=`pwd`
[02:55] <KuDeTa> but it failed
[02:55] <mattafix> can't download anythin or play videos
[02:55] <IdleOne> mattafix>  did you enable universe and multiverse?
[02:56] <mattafix> yea
[02:56] <Chousuke> mattafix: do you mean you don't get internet connection?
[02:56] <Chousuke> mattafix: how are you connected to the internet?
[02:56] <IdleOne> DVD playing is possible in ubuntu. You may need libdvdcss2, which is available via http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages (section extras)

[03:01] <mikex> looking for a backup tool for ubuntu. any suggestions? and what to back up?
[03:02] <brenner> mattafix: that's not how it works.  you can name a file anything and still have it be ecevutable
[03:02] <brenner> executable rather
[03:02] <rem_> http://www.howtoforge.com/linux_rdiff_backup
[03:03] <mattafix> but it says to  rename the file to the correct extension for "executable"
[03:03] <brenner> mattafix: tell us the install problem and IdleOne will help you with them
[03:03] <Enthusiast78> mikex, Do you want to backup your PC or do you need a networked-backup solution?
[03:03] <IdleOne> brenner>  :P
[03:04] <brenner> IdleOne: i love deferring to other people:)
[03:04] <IdleOne> mattafix>  we cant help if we dont know what it is you want to do and what errors your getting
[03:04] <tucoz> Hello, any ATI users around? I am trying to get 3d working on my ubuntu install, but I get an error message when running fglrxinfo:  ERROR: version mismatch - 2D module [8.23.7]  incompatible with OGL client module [8.21.7] .
[03:05] <IdleOne> !ati
[03:05] <ubotu> hmm... ati is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI or http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=24557&page=1&pp=10 or http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=423589
[03:05] <tucoz> IdleOne, thanks. But I used those links when installing.
[03:06] <IdleOne> tucoz>  thats the full extent of my knowledge concerning ati sorry :/
[03:06] <tucoz> I wonder if some old version of the fglrx-driver is remaining in my install
[03:06] <tucoz> IdleOne, no problem. Thanks anyway.
[03:06] <IdleOne> tucoz>  stick around there will be a few ati gurus around sooner or later
[03:07] <tucoz> great :)
[03:07] <IdleOne> just be patient and dont ask 500 times :)
[03:07] <Enthusiast78> tucoz, Do you mean it used to work before?
[03:07] <tucoz> Enthusiast78, not after I updated to dapper.
[03:08] <IdleOne> tucoz>  try #ubuntu+1 for help with dapper
[03:08] <IdleOne> or maybe Enthusiast78  can help
[03:08] <lightstep> how can i change my hostname?
[03:08] <tucoz> With breezy I used to install the driver using the installer from ATI, but now I installed the packaged version of the driver
[03:08] <IdleOne> lightstep>  change it to what?
[03:09] <Enthusiast78> tucoz, IdleOne, Not really. My best suggestion would be to try downgrading the package, but that could break something, so it's still no good advice at all. :o)
[03:09] <lightstep> IdleOne, to some other unused hostname in my network
[03:09] <IdleOne> tucoz>  #ubuntu+1 is your best bet
[03:09] <tucoz> ok, I'll ask at that channel
[03:09] <lightstep> IdleOne, i want to fit to a naming convention
[03:10] <IdleOne> lightstep>  that sounds difficult ..sorry I cant help
[03:10] <Kamping_Kaiser> lightstep: you want to change your hostname?
[03:10] <lightstep> i wonder if just using hostname will work
[03:10] <IdleOne> have a good day everybody...remember Love your Ubuntu and Ubuntu will love you back
[03:11] <lightstep> Kamping_Kaiser, yes
[03:11] <Kamping_Kaiser> "hostname" as hostname? probably not a good idea
[03:11] <netface> oi
[03:11] <brenner> IdleOne: awwww :)
[03:11] <dylan_> how do i downgrade my apps if they're not stable?
[03:11] <Kamping_Kaiser> later IdleOne :)
[03:11] <netface> algum brasileiro?
[03:11] <IdleOne> !br
[03:11] <ubotu> Por favor use #ubuntu-br (/j #ubuntu-br) para ajuda em portugues. Obrigada.
[03:11] <lightstep> i want to make it as if i types the correct name in the install process

[03:11] <heyjoe2> is there a way i can safely unmount my usb device
[03:12] <heyjoe2> using the command line, it doesnt work when i use the click method
[03:12] <Kamping_Kaiser> lightstep: to change the hostname you edi t "/etc/hostname" and "/etc/hosts"
[03:12] <Kamping_Kaiser> and this is one time i do condone use of a root terminal.
[03:12] <jlinden_> How do I print raw text data to ipp printer?? anyone?
[03:12] <lightstep> heyjoe2, try sudo umount /path/to/device

[03:14] <heyjoe2> lightstep: so if its on the desktop i go sudo unmount /desktop/new volume
[03:14] <jetscreamer> try a different source

[03:20] <jetscreamer> n3m3s1s: it's just a key you didn't impoirt yet. you can ignore it till you find out how
[03:21] <n3m3s1s> or can i del it?
[03:21] <jetscreamer> Diogo: can't hurt to just ask in both channels
[03:21] <heyjoe2> brenner: that seems to have done good
[03:21] <jetscreamer> n3m3s1s: you can just comment out the new source
[03:21] <jetscreamer> n3m3s1s: but like i said it's an ignorable error

[03:21] <jetscreamer> !keys
[03:21] <ubotu> Wish I knew. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, jetscreamer
[03:21] <Diogo> jetscreamer, Here we go, then: I'd like to 'lock' my 'recovery mode' entries, but they are inside the AUTOMAGIC section and I wouldn't like to hurt automagic, so how do I proceed?
[03:21] <jetscreamer> dumbot
[03:22] <heyjoe2> brenner: i think its opened newvolume
[03:22] <n3m3s1s> ok
[03:22] <brenner> heyjoe2: ls shows the contents of the stick?
[03:22] <jetscreamer> Diogo: you could just copy the ones and put them below the magic line
[03:22] <jlinden_> I cant enable 3d hardware acceleration when Im using xinerama for dual head, i have intel embedded graphics chip... anyone know any solution?
[03:22] <heyjoe2> brenner: yep the contents are correct
[03:22] <Healot> how do I patch an original tarball (tar.gz) with it
[03:23] <brenner> heyjoe2: then that's the one you want. to unmount: sudo umount /dev/sda5
[03:23] <heyjoe2> exactly as it is?
[03:23] <Diogo> jetscreamer, Do you mean copying the line blocks of those sections and re-insert them below with the lock line included?
[03:23] <bigfoot1> i have an avi file. how can i record just the audio of that as an mp3?
[03:23] <brenner> heyjoe2: yep.  weird that you can't unmount via desktop though
[03:23] <Healot> its gzipped diff file?
[03:24] <rambo3> why dont you just unpack and aplay patch , repack
[03:24] <jetscreamer> Diogo: lock line? i mean copy , title to boot,  each section you want to preserve against automagic, and paste below ethe 'end debian automagic' or whatever it says in ubuntu
[03:25] <heyjoe2> brenner: it says device is busy, but im not using it for anything
[03:25] <heyjoe2> brenner: that i can see
[03:25] <jetscreamer> lsof heyjoe2
[03:26] <Nabiki> :P I got a message saying
[03:26] <heyjoe2> whats lsof
[03:26] <Nabiki> :P I got a message saying SSL version 2 is disabled.
[03:26] <jetscreamer> type it
[03:26] <joefso3> HOW DO i GET XGL WORKING ON DEBIAN?
[03:26] <jetscreamer> LiStOpenFiles
[03:26] <Diogo> jetscreamer, Ok, and then I add the 'lock' line right below the 'initrd' line, right? Will these new blocks overwrite the automagic ones?
[03:26] <jetscreamer> joe_alf: /topic #debian
[03:27] <jetscreamer> Diogo: what lock line
[03:27] <heyjoe2> brenner: what do i do if it says its busy in terminal
[03:27] <jetscreamer> you don't need a lock line, just anything under where it says end debian magic won't be touched
[03:27] <brenner> joefso3: ask #debian
[03:27] <Diogo> jetscreamer, To have an entry locked in grub, I need the 'lock' line right below the 'initrd' line, afaik...
[03:27] <Diogo> jetscreamer, I want them password-locked.
[03:27] <joefso3> brenner why?
[03:27] <jetscreamer> Diogo: ahhh
[03:28] <Diogo> jetscreamer, :o)

[03:28] <henk> Hi can anyone help me set up my ati card (readon 9100) i tried to install the ati propiatary driver but it did not work for me. So i removed all the related stuff. reinstalled ristricted driver, kernel <IP_ADDRESS>-18 and reset my xorg.conf to user 'fglrx' as a driver. However i now keep faling back to mesa and i cannot figure out why it is no longer working. Anyone that has experience with this?
[03:28] <Diogo> jetscreamer, And I'd like it to be set as automagically-compliant as possible. ;o)
[03:28] <joefso3> brenner: I'm using ubuntu ?
[03:28] <brenner> joefso3: i don't know. are you?
[03:28] <brenner> >_>
[03:28] <joefso3> brenner: why would I be here? haha
[03:28] <jetscreamer> Diogo: i never did passwd in grub. i thought you didn't want the automagic to touch it, like having a failsafe.

[03:28] <ubotu> XGL on Ubuntu: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/XglHowto - Join #ubuntu-xgl for all the XGL fun on Ubuntu systems. It works ONLY on dapper. Pretty videos on http://www.novell.com/linux/xglrelease/
[03:29] <rambo3> on ati you have to omit some Option "" and use Device Driver "ati"
[03:29] <devios> the kubuntu live cd couldn't auomatically set up sound on my Dell Optiplex GX240 - on-board sound.  anyone know how to fix?
[03:29] <brenner> joefso3: you asked a question relating directly to debian.  therefore, it's better to ask the folk at @debian
[03:29] <Diogo> jetscreamer, Oh, no. Well, you just need the "password" line set and then add lines with 'lock' right below 'initrd'. I just didn't want to hurt the automagic system.
[03:29] <brenner> heyjoe2: ask jetscreamer.  he seems to have an idea.  i usually just reboot.
[03:30] <heyjoe2> brenner: http://pastebin.com/594461 thats the error message i get
[03:30] <jetscreamer> Diogo: it will be overwritten unless you add it to the auto stuff above, or cp one below the line
[03:30] <henk> rambo3 and elkbuntu if that was for me... i'm not trying to set up glx (it definately does not work with my ati card,) im trying to revert back to the old situation
[03:30] <heyjoe2> jetscreamer: any idea on how to help me. this is the error message i get when i try to click unmount http://pastebin.com/594461
[03:30] <elkbuntu> henk, no it was for heyjoe2
[03:30] <henk> elkbuntu ok sorry
[03:30] <jetscreamer> heyjoe2: i just thought you could run lsof and see what's trying to acces it
[03:30] <Diogo> jetscreamer, Yeah, I was wondering if the auto stuff would solve this problem...
[03:31] <rambo3> henk is X working+
[03:31] <heyjoe2> jetscreamer: sorry im a newbie, how do i run lsof
[03:31] <jetscreamer> jsut type it
[03:31] <heyjoe2> elkbuntu: what was for me
[03:31] <jetscreamer> maybe add sudo
[03:31] <henk> rambo3 yes x works. the open gl driver just falls back to mesa instead of fglrx
[03:31] <elkbuntu> heyjoe2, the information ubotu said about xgl
[03:31] <Healot> oh, now i get how the hell to patch source package...
[03:32] <elkbuntu> ubotu, tell heyjoe2 about xgl
[03:32] <jetscreamer> /media/NEW\040VOLUME <--
[03:32] <brenner> elkbuntu: you must be tired. :) he's having unmounting issues.  nothing to do with xgl
[03:32] <jetscreamer> / not \
[03:32] <natalie> hello, I was wondering if there is anyone who might be able to help me with a problem.
[03:32] <elkbuntu> oh, wrong joe
[03:32] <jetscreamer> the other guy wanted the xgl
[03:32] <brenner> ya
[03:33] <elkbuntu> ubotu, tell joefso3 about xgl
[03:33] <brenner> natalie: ask away
[03:33] <heyjoe2> jetscreamer: http://pastebin.com/594466
[03:33] <elkbuntu> the 'joe' and number parts confused me, and yes, i'm tired
[03:33] <henk> rambo3 it seems by the way i cannot insmod 'drm' should i be able to ?
[03:33] <natalie> I recently loaded a copy of 5.10 on my PC and it freezes whenever I get to the login screen.  I can't even hit CTRL+ALT+F1 to get a terminal
[03:34] <brenner> natalie: live cd or install?
[03:34] <natalie> Install
[03:34] <rambo3> i dont think that you need drm for your kernel
[03:35] <Diogo> natalie, What if you boot in 'recovery mode'?
[03:35] <jetscreamer> frank... uh heyjoe2 ... cd / and umount /media/NEW\ VOLUME
[03:35] <natalie> I can boot i to recovery mode, but I'm fairly new to linux, so I'm not really sure what to do.
[03:35] <Nabiki> brb.   Gotta test something.
[03:35] <heyjoe2> jetscreamer: i did that
[03:35] <heyjoe2> now what
[03:36] <Diogo> natalie, Then it could be something related to X. Do you guys think natalie should 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure x-server'?
[03:36] <jetscreamer> heyjoe2: type the command here exactly as you typed it
[03:36] <heyjoe2> cd / and umount /media/NEW\ VOLUME
[03:36] <brenner> Diogo: she should have got a bluescreen.  but it's worth a shot
[03:37] <heyjoe2> wrong?
[03:37] <jetscreamer> heyjoe2: you typed and?
[03:37] <heyjoe2> yeah i thought that was strange
[03:37] <heyjoe2> two separate commands huh
[03:37] <jetscreamer> cd / && umount /media/NEW\ VOLUME
[03:37] <jetscreamer> try that
[03:37] <jetscreamer> one line there
[03:37] <brenner> heyjoe2: the first one isn't actually needed.
[03:38] <jetscreamer> actually since he's in the directory, yeah
[03:38] <Diogo> natalie, brenner, Sorry it's 'xserver-xorg' the name of the package.
[03:38] <Gau> Is there a way to repair a HD using an Ubuntu LiveCD?
[03:38] <Diogo> Gau, What kind of 'repair' do you mean?
[03:39] <Gau> Well, apparently the HD has an invalid node structure and the catalog b-tree is damaged
[03:39] <natalie> Diogo: Will there be anything in particular that I will need to do after that, or will it fix itself?  (Sorry I'm really new)
[03:39] <heyjoe2> ok http://pastebin.com/594481
[03:39] <milamber> someone kwnows, i try to mount my hdc7 partition, mounting works fine, buth the browser says u do not have anough permissiopns ?. looked it in fstab everything seems fine
[03:39] <vjHabib> does anyone know how to put dri in ati fglrx?
[03:40] <brenner> vjHabib: how'd you install the driver?
[03:40] <z6bt> how would i burn an audio cd with cdrecord (i dont have and cant have x)
[03:40] <heyjoe2> jetscreamer: http://pastebin.com/594481
[03:40] <Diogo> natalie, I really don't know, but I'm hoping it will fix itself.
[03:40] <jetscreamer> heyjoe2: add sudo.
[03:40] <natalie> Diogo, Brenner, Thanks for the help I will give it a try.
[03:41] <jetscreamer> next time, sudo lsof | grep -i /mnt/new btw
[03:41] <brenner> natalie: if that doesn't work.  search the forum using "freeze" and "login " as keywords.  it might not be a display issue
[03:41] <natalie> Okay, I'll do that
[03:41] <z6bt> does anyone know?
[03:41] <heyjoe2> jetscreamer: no error msg
[03:41] <vjHabib> brenner: I follow this instruction of proprietary driver
[03:42] <jetscreamer> heyjoe2: type mount
[03:42] <brenner> vjHabib: which instructions?
[03:42] <heyjoe2> jetscreamer: i think it worked
[03:42] <z6bt> so i take it no one knows?
[03:42] <heyjoe2> jetscreamer: but i typed mount anyway
[03:42] <vjHabib> brenner: i create a .deb folowing this link http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Installation_Guide#Method_2:_Generating.2FInstalling_Ubuntu_packages_for_the_newer_8.23.7_drivers_in_Breezy_Badger
[03:42] <jetscreamer> z6bt: is it mounted heyjoe2 ?
[03:43] <z6bt> what?
[03:43] <vjHabib> brenner: this is in #ati
[03:43] <jetscreamer> oops
[03:43] <z6bt> what would i be mounting
[03:43] <jetscreamer> z6bt: hang on
[03:43] <z6bt> k
[03:43] <jetscreamer> is it mounted heyjoe2 ?
[03:43] <heyjoe2> jetscreamer: i typed mount and it didnt mount
[03:43] <jetscreamer> heyjoe2: you mean it isn't mounted
[03:43] <Drac[Server] > I'm shutting the server down temporarily. I'll be back.
[03:44] <jetscreamer> ?
[03:44] <brenner> vjHabib: ok.  i think they're identical to the ones you should be using: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[03:44] <jetscreamer> heyjoe2: typing mount should just tell you what is mounted
[03:44] <brenner> vjHabib: did you do the whole thing?
[03:44] <heyjoe2> jetscreamer: http://pastebin.com/594486
[03:44] <heyjoe2> jetscreamer: i think it worked
[03:45] <Diogo> Anybody ever tried to 'dist-upgrade' a Debian system to Ubuntu?
[03:45] <jetscreamer> z6bt: http://www.linuxdocs.org/sln/cdcommands/
[03:45] <vjHabib> brenner: is but i'm with another kernel
[03:45] <brenner> z6bt: try #linuxhelp since it's a generic question
[03:45] <Jhair> Diogo: that would not work
[03:45] <jetscreamer> heyjoe2: wtg \o/
[03:45] <Nabiki> Ok, I am up and going under linux.  :P  I keep getting weird messages from dpkg though. :)
[03:45] <brenner> vjHabib: i don't get you
[03:45] <heyjoe2> jetscreamer: i think it works, cos i tried it again
[03:46] <Diogo> Jhair, Hmmm... How sad I am... :'(
[03:46] <jetscreamer> heyjoe2: you can't be in the directory and try to umount it at the same time :)
[03:46] <Nabiki> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[03:46] <vjHabib> brenner: I have a kernel 2.6.13 compiled by my self
[03:46] <techmydeck> im havin a problem with ubuntu. when i try to use the system configurations at gnome, they say that my root pass is wrong. anyone could help me?
[03:46] <heyjoe2> jetscreamer: whenever i type umount /media/NEW\ VOLUME
[03:46] <heyjoe2> it disappears from the desktop
[03:46] <jetscreamer> right
[03:46] <elkbuntu> Diogo, although based on debian, ubuntu isnt quite the same. what would be the point if it was ;)
[03:46] <brenner> jetscreamer: whoops. that was my fault i guess
[03:47] <heyjoe2> jetscreamer: good, no
[03:47] <jetscreamer> heyjoe2: it's not in the fstab
[03:47] <matt__> !w32codecs
[03:47] <ubotu> it has been said that w32codecs is a compilation of binary win32 A/V codecs for many popular proprietary formats not currently supported by free implementations under linux. See http://tinyurl.com/e4a5s to install
[03:47] <Jhair> techmydeck: probably you are being asked for YOUR password (sudo) and not the root password
[03:47] <Diogo> elkbuntu, I know, I know. I'd just like to migrate a system to Ubuntu. Is there another way of doing this?
[03:47] <heyjoe2> jetscreamer: ok, so what do i do?
[03:47] <jetscreamer> heyjoe2: and there is a setting to show unmounted volumes on the desktop somewhere also... i don't know much about automount though i don't use it
[03:48] <techmydeck> oh ok !!!!!!!!! thx
[03:48] <jetscreamer> heyjoe2: probably put your command in fstab... i'd rething that new volume naming scheme if it was me though
[03:48] <brenner> vjHabib: shouldn't matter i don't think
[03:48] <jetscreamer> s/rething/rethink/
[03:48] <heyjoe2> jetscreamer: simply typing umount /media/NEW\ VOLUME wont cut it to unmount
[03:48] <jetscreamer> heyjoe2: some other name, maybe w/o spaces
[03:48] <heyjoe2> ok
[03:48] <jetscreamer> heyjoe2: what?
[03:48] <heyjoe2> just by renaming the file
[03:48] <jetscreamer> simply typing umount /media/NEW\ VOLUME wont cut it to unmount ?
[03:49] <elkbuntu> Diogo, my guess would be: backup important info (eg, home, www ...) install ubuntu, put important info into relevent places
[03:49] <heyjoe2> sorry
[03:49] <jetscreamer> no you need a good line for it in fstab.. you don't put the actual mount command
[03:49] <heyjoe2> jetscreamer: i dont know what a good line or fstab is
[03:49] <jetscreamer> make it similar to the others
[03:49] <jetscreamer> heyjoe2: less /etc/fstab to see an example
[03:49] <Diogo> elkbuntu, Yeah, do it the traditional way. :o) No problem! Just wanted to know if there was an almost-automagic way to do it.
[03:50] <jetscreamer> !fstab
[03:50] <ubotu> the /etc/fstab  file lists all drives and partitions but can be easily configured automatically with the diskmounter file found here http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/files/diskmounter  See <partitions>.
[03:50] <jetscreamer> heyjoe2: ^^
[03:50] <heyjoe2> jetscreamer: how do i rename new volume
[03:50] <elkbuntu> Diogo, google around, you never know what people have managed to do, but it seems nobody in here knows of that way yet
[03:50] <matt__> is it still possible to get the w32 codecs off the servers??
[03:50] <heyjoe2> i tried to rightclick and properties but that didnt work
[03:50] <heyjoe2> jetscreamer: same with rightclick rename
[03:51] <jetscreamer> mv NEW\ VOLUME someothername
[03:51] <Diogo> elkbuntu, Ok, thanks!
[03:51] <jetscreamer> heyjoe2: did you create the dir with sudo? then you'll need to use sudo to mv it
[03:51] <matt__> is it still possible to get the w32 codecs off the servers??
[03:52] <heyjoe2> it says now cannot stat new volume
[03:52] <heyjoe2> jetscreamer: no such file or directory
[03:52] <jetscreamer> heyjoe2: either be in the /media directory, or supply full path ... /media/NEW\ VOLUME
[03:53] <chmod775> is there any VPN software for ubuntu ?
[03:53] <Jhair> chmod775: yes
[03:53] <jind> love your nick
[03:53] <jind> chmod775
[03:53] <chmod775> How do I download it
[03:53] <jetscreamer> heyjoe2: so sudo mv /media/NEW\ VOLUME /media/whatever
[03:54] <Diogo> chmod775, I think 'aptitude search vpn' will give you a few choices.
[03:54] <heyjoe2> it says bash so command not found
[03:54] <heyjoe2> i type
[03:54] <drjohn> does security really depend on the OS or the user or admin setting it up?  im a bit confused with tihs
[03:55] <jetscreamer> heyjoe2: just from the word sudo
[03:55] <jetscreamer> sudo blahblahblah
[03:55] <dobrev> HymnToLife> Thank you
[03:55] <jetscreamer>  sudo mv /media/NEW\ VOLUME /media/whatever
[03:55] <HymnToLife> did you manage it ?
[03:55] <unrea> how do i use dualscreen with ubuntu?
[03:55] <jetscreamer> unrea: configure xorg.conf properly
[03:56] <heyjoe2> jetscreamer: http://pastebin.com/594501
[03:56] <jack> i'm a newby can i ask something?
[03:56] <unrea> jetscreamer, how do i do that? :D
[03:56] <HymnToLife> jack > of course
[03:56] <Jhair> jack: you already did
[03:56] <HymnToLife> lol
[03:56] <ndlovu> my hard drive is killing me with slow disk reads... any suggestions of good hard drive testing programs in linux?
[03:56] <jack> he he thnx
[03:56] <drjohn> does security really depend on the OS or the user or admin setting it up?  im a bit confused with that question
[03:56] <jack> so i have installed ubuntu 5.10 right now
[03:57] <jack> how do i install plugins like flash player?
[03:57] <Nabiki> Is there a command to test that all my dependencies are in place accross the board? :)
[03:57] <HymnToLife> !tell jack about flash
[03:57] <heyjoe2> #easyubuntu might be good
[03:57] <unrea> jetscreamer, I tried, but then it couldn't find my screen, so i had to change it back :/
[03:57] <Healot> drjohn, just remember, software is created by human, if human is dumb, then software is dumb too
[03:57] <chmod775> I am looking for a vpn client software which I can use it to connect  remote
[03:57] <chmod775> ?
[03:57] <Jhair> chmod775: you want to connect to a vpn server?
[03:57] <chmod775> Jhair, yes
[03:57] <Healot> remember "people","people" and "people"
[03:58] <Jhair> chmod775: a windows-based or linux-based vpn server?
[03:58] <heyjoe2> jetscreamer: make any sense out of the pastebin
[03:58] <chmod775> Maybe anything ?
[03:58] <marcin`> hello #ubuntu
[03:58] <Jhair> chmod775: for a windows-based you can use the pptp package and a patched kernel AFAIK.
[03:58] <jetscreamer> unrea: i can help you later but i have to get ready for work soon... nvidia.com has a list/readme if it's nvidia, if it's not nvidia i can't help you anyway
[03:58] <HymnToLife> !tell marcin` about hello
[03:58] <Jhair> chmod775: I use that to connect to the vpn of my company which is a windows server
[03:58] <chmod775> ok
[03:58] <jetscreamer> heyjoe2: sudo lsof | grep -i /media/new
[03:58] <chmod775> SO how do I install it ?
[03:59] <marcin`> could someone tell me how could I to record some internet radio to mp3/ogg file?
[03:59] <unrea> jetscreamer, it's not an nvidia, thanks for the help anyway :)
[03:59] <Jhair> chmod775: http://pptpclient.sourceforge.net/howto-ubuntu.phtml
[03:59] <heyjoe2> jetscreamer: yep
[03:59] <heyjoe2> jetscreamer: try the mv command now?
[04:00] <jetscreamer> heyjoe2: did the lsof | grep command not return anything?
[04:00] <heyjoe2> jetscreamer: nothing
[04:00] <milamber> nfts disks r not readable with ubuntu ?
[04:00] <jack> i have another question plz
[04:00] <jetscreamer> heyjoe2: ok 'should' work
[04:00] <jetscreamer> !ntfs
[04:00] <ubotu> [ntfs]  the filesystem used in Windows 2000 and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[04:01] <heyjoe2> jetscreamer: should do a lot of things
[04:01] <heyjoe2> but isnt
[04:01] <heyjoe2> busy again
[04:02] <jetscreamer> sudo lsof | grep -i media
[04:02] <milamber> thnx
[04:03] <heyjoe2> jetscreamer: http://pastebin.com/594520 does that mean it is a openoffice file-writer perhaps thats holding it back, cos i just closed it
[04:04] <LuisBG> what's the easiest way to install an airport wifi card in ubuntu? it's for a powerbook
[04:04] <bfield> ndiswrapper?
[04:05] <LuisBG> isn't it going to be in the install cd of dapper?
[04:05] <LuisBG> there is a free source driver... just wondered the ubuntu way to install it
[04:05] <bfield> not to sure of that... altho, I can't wait for dapper
[04:06] <jan_> hi, how do 'devid' of a pci device look like?
[04:06] <jan_> with lspci, to ndiswrapper
[04:06] <Healot> ndiswrapper works with Windows XP driver...
[04:06] <LuisBG> bfield, me neither, tried to dist-upgrade the other day and messed up all my apt :S
[04:06] <aleph0> hello everyone.
[04:06] <Healot> if it is from the source, the same way any GNU/Linux would do, LuisBG
[04:07] <bfield> you know
[04:07] <aleph0> I'm having problems with system load. my server hangs and a lot of time is spent in I/O wait. I can't seem to track it... any pointers?
[04:07] <LuisBG> Healot, isn't the module system in ubuntu a little different, I mean it has to work with the kernel packages
[04:07] <bfield> the easist way to do it Luis, is to get ahold of the dapper sources.list, and then just apt-get upgrade.
[04:07] <LuisBG> aleph0, what does top say?
[04:07] <heyjoe2> jetscreamer: did that pastebin shed any light
[04:07] <jan_> hi, how do 'devid' of a pci device look like?
[04:07] <Healot> no... it is the same on all Linux, at least on most Linux
[04:07] <inversan> what so men
[04:07] <aleph0> something like this:
[04:07] <aleph0> Cpu(s): 30.7% us,  7.5% sy,  0.0% ni, 28.2% id, 33.4% wa,  0.1% hi,  0.2% si
[04:08] <eth0> hi, could anyone tell me, is it best to learn bash or c programming first?
[04:08] <aleph0> but wait time can peak at over 90%
[04:08] <bfield> eth0, did you look for howto's?
[04:08] <LuisBG> eth0, I think C
[04:08] <bfield> hmm
[04:08] <thelamb> definately bash first
[04:08] <bfield> I agree with Luis there.
[04:08] <eth0> bfield: couldn't find anything on google
[04:08] <bfield> hmm
[04:08] <LuisBG> Healot, i'm adapted to having the sources in /usr/src... any pointer to a howto ;) ?
[04:09] <heyjoe2> jetscreamer: do you think its a good idea to take my computer to a computer store to get them to fix all my usb issues?
[04:09] <bfield> lemme see if I can find some (eth0)
[04:09] <eth0> bfield: thanks :)
[04:09] <naila> ola
[04:09] <bfield> eth0, here's a good link for C programming
[04:09] <bfield> http://www.cs.cf.ac.uk/Dave/C/
[04:09] <naila> hello
[04:10] <aleph0> is there something like 'top' which tells me exactly which process is causing the I/O wait ?
[04:10] <LuisBG> bfield, I tried to upgrade to dapper and weird massive dependency problems mid-way
[04:10] <bfield> luis, well I guess I'll just wait the month or two till they release it.
[04:10] <bfield> ususally is best that way
[04:10] <eth0> bfield: im not looking for a text on c, i aleady have a couple of books
[04:10] <Healot> oh... you need to install the kernel source... just like all GNU/Linux
[04:10] <LuisBG> bfield, LOL isn't it 6.4?
[04:10] <bfield> luis, yea thats what I heard
[04:10] <eth0> bfield: im wondering whether to startr with c or bash
[04:11] <LuisBG> eth0, top has several keys to view stuff... like m for memory I think, look at the man to see if there is one for I/O
[04:11] <jan_> hi, how do 'devid' of a pci device look like?
[04:11] <bfield> eth0, I'd say bash then, its bit easier
[04:11] <CarinArr> eth0, it depends what you want to do
[04:11] <bfield> eth0, have you looked into realbasic?
[04:11] <eth0> what's realbasic
[04:11] <heyjoe2> im having problems with two usb devices in general. do people think if i take it into a computer store theyd be able to fix it for a small fee? cos its quite complicated getting ppl to help me remotely.
[04:11] <aleph0> LuisBG: it shows I/O but not on a pre process level.
[04:12] <LuisBG> aleph0, mmmmm then I'm clueless
[04:12] <aleph0> me too :(
[04:12] <bfield> eth0, its the basic programming language, but with an easy use IDE, very similar to Visual Basic
[04:12] <CarinArr> ack
[04:12] <LuisBG> aleph0, try killing processes until you spot the problem
[04:12] <eth0> bfield: well i've already started with c
[04:12] <aleph0> I had something like this before. only then it was the disk.
[04:12] <CarinArr> eth0, i'd stick with c
[04:12] <CarinArr> if you know c it's easy to learn other things
[04:12] <aleph0> my system is fastest after I killed everything :)
[04:12] <bfield> eth0, well then stick with it, it's all prefrence I guess
[04:13] <jetscreamer> heyjoe2: i think you'd be wasting your money personally. you may not beable to renamethe mount point due to automount stuff, not sure... try just using a different mountpoint. heyjoe2 , gtg work now:/ g'luck... (but hey it seems to function... what happens if you take it out of the omputer and put it back in.. does it automount?)
[04:13] <eth0> alright, thanks :)
[04:13] <CarinArr> c has a slightly steep learning curve but it's worth it
[04:13] <bfield> np
[04:13] <heyjoe2> jetscreamer: it automounts. the other problem i have is a thumbdrive that wont mount
[04:13] <heyjoe2> and the mac os x computers at uni wont recognize my new volume mp3 player
[04:13] <eth0> carin: yeah
[04:14] <poet_> hello guys, how to compile modules for ubuntu?  for example: pl2303
[04:14] <chmod775> how do I update to new gnome ?
[04:14] <chmod775> gnome 2.14 ?
[04:14] <coach> hi@all
[04:14] <jan_> how do i find the id to a pci-wlan card?
[04:14] <coach> i've got a prob with my ubuntu
[04:14] <aleph0> eth0: bash is not a good place to start IMHO. and neither is c. to start learning programming first take a look at something like python or something. it's quick to learn, easier thatn c and it's teach you all the basic concepts without having to worry too much about pointers and stuff
[04:14] <jetscreamer> heyjoe2: the thumbdrive is similar, but uses a different /dev device.... you can do it!
[04:15] <heyjoe2> jetscreamer: any tips on how to get started?
[04:15] <jan_> how do i find the device-id to a pci-wlan card?
[04:15] <chmod775> try iwconfig
[04:15] <coach> i cant mount my cdrom, though ts not wrecked...what shall i do?
[04:15] <chmod775> u mean wireless card right ?
[04:15] <bfield> jan, either that or lspci
[04:15] <tritium> eth0: python _is_ a great langauge to learn with.  In fact, the package (and book) diveintopython is installed by default on ubuntu.  That's a good one to learn from.
[04:15] <transgress> what file do i need to edit to get iwlist to use wlan0 instead of eth2 as my wireless card because as far as i know it should still be wlan0 after upgrading to breezy right?
[04:16] <eth0> aleph0: yeah, i've heard  that b4 that it's not the best one to start with, but are pointers really that complicated?
[04:16] <jan_> bfield, how does it look like in lspci? 0000:02:7.1
[04:17] <eth0> aldren: i've not used them that much
[04:17] <eth0> er
[04:17] <eth0> aleph0: i've not used them that much
[04:17] <p0mppu> hi everyone
[04:17] <bfield> jan, yes, thats right
[04:17] <coach> i want to install wow with cedega, but when i insert the 4th cd, i can't mount it...
[04:17] <VladDrac> anyone here ever got breezy installation to work with 3ware 9550 raid controllers?
[04:17] <p0mppu> is there a way to install OpenOffice.org 2 in the Dapper dev version?
[04:17] <p0mppu> the whole thing
[04:17] <aleph0> eth0: they're not impossible to learn, but it's be more fun if you start with something that you can get going with straight away... with c it'l take you longer to have fun ;-)
[04:17] <p0mppu> it seems I can install else but not the Writer, or if Writer, then it removes the others
[04:17] <tritium> p0mppu: it gets installed by default
[04:18] <p0mppu> tritium: not on my pc
[04:18] <tritium> p0mppu: /j #ubuntu+1
[04:18] <gzzzt> hi, wheres the modprobe.conf in ubuntu? i cant find it
[04:18] <p0mppu> what's that?
[04:18] <LuisBG> how stable is dapper flight 4 ?
[04:18] <tritium> p0mppu: the channel for dapper questions
[04:18] <p0mppu> ok
[04:18] <p0mppu> thanks
[04:18] <crimsun> LuisBG: soon to be deprecated by Flight 5
[04:18] <p0mppu> and sorry :)
[04:19] <crimsun> gzzzt: there shouldn't be one, else /etc/modprobe.d/ is skipped
[04:19] <eth0> aleph0: yeah, good point
[04:19] <bfield> later everyone
[04:19] <gzzzt> crimsun, i just installed a new sounddriver, and it tells me to modify that file... how do I handle this now?
[04:19] <eth0> aleph0: but are pointers tricky?
[04:20] <eth0> aleph0: oh sorry
[04:20] <USER016623> oh, i go
[04:20] <eth0> aleph0: i misread what u last said
[04:20] <crimsun> gzzzt: don't touch /etc/modprobe.conf . Which driver did you install?
[04:20] <eth0> aleph0: but are pointers tricky?  <---- ignore that
[04:20] <USER016623> but, need we speack english, because we are italian
[04:20] <netface> ATI 9800PRO@XT compatible ubuntu?
[04:20] <aleph0> eth0 they're not tricky, they're annoying ;-)
[04:20] <gzzzt> crimsun, nvidia nforce sounddrivers
[04:21] <eth0> aleph0: yeah i don't totaly understand the point of them so far
[04:21] <USER016623> we have just 5 minutes
[04:21] <crimsun> gzzzt: those are oss-based, not alsa. You won't be able to use alsa applications with them.
[04:21] <USER016623> Morgante merda!
[04:21] <crimsun> gzzzt: I highly recommend you use snd-intel8x0 instead, which Ubuntu does by default.
[04:21] <USER016623> adesso avremmo proprio bisogno di droga
[04:21] <coach> tritium, hello?
[04:21] <tritium> yes, coach?
[04:22] <gzzzt> crimsun, i want to use hardware mixing, since i want to play and hear music or use teamspeak at the same time..,. so i guess using the nvidia drivers is my only chance aint it?
[04:22] <coach> i wrote a pm to you, would u look at it, plz?
[04:22] <henk> is there a tool that can figure out my messy documents and files ? i have many backups of partial backups of documents etc. The drives are a mess, i'm looking for some tool that can help me clean is up (identufy duplicate dirs/files etc)
[04:22] <tritium> coach: I didn't get it.  You've probably not registered/identified
[04:22] <netface> Enemy territory @ 9800 pro @ubuntu?
[04:22] <coach> oh, sry^^
[04:22] <Jhair> henk: tree
[04:23] <eth0> aleph0: except with bash, learning all the unix commands and kinda makes things a lot easier tho, no? cuz the shell does all the work for you?
[04:23] <crimsun> gzzzt: no, what you want to be able to use is pcm multiplexing, not hardware mixing (that's a recording/monitoring feature in pro audio cards)
[04:23] <coach> tritium, i wanted to install wow with cedega, but the 4th cd doesn't want to get mounted-.-
[04:23] <transgress> hey what's the wiki page for setting up the nvidia driver?
[04:23] <suppaman> hi
[04:23] <nijan> Hello, I've been unable to install any program, I've tried to run apt-get update, to set up the keys, but nothing solves the problem. I've been receiving alway the same "impossible to install  package x" message.
[04:23] <tritium> !tell transgress about nvidia
[04:23] <crimsun> gzzzt: while nvsound.ko will give you that, you will give up any sort of audio work done in alsa
[04:23] <USER016623> Dreita camminava lentamente lungo il porto. fu il vento di maggio che le scompigli i capelli a farla ritornare nel passato ormai scordato di amarezza e delusione...era di nuovo lei, dopo essere stata soltanto incertezza ed inganno..ma, forse, non era stato bello credere di essere cambiata?
[04:23] <tritium> !it
[04:23] <ubotu> Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[04:24] <tritium> coach: bad CD?
[04:24] <gzzzt> crimsun, would that be a bad thing? since my only wish is to hear music, use teamspeak and play games
[04:24] <crimsun> gzzzt: if you use nvsound.ko, make sure you set everything to use oss instead of alsa.
[04:24] <coach> no
[04:24] <eth0> aleph0: or am i looking for a book on linux, rather than bash?
[04:24] <henk> Jhair hmm tree |wc -l gives me 87897 lines.... so that is not something i'd call a big help :)
[04:24] <crimsun> gzzzt: no, it's not a "bad" thing per se. We just won't field your support questions, since we can't access the source code.
[04:24] <tritium> coach: why do you suspect it won't mount?
[04:24] <USER016623> senti, io sto chattando col mio amico immaginario che  seduto al mio fianco e non conosce l'inglese, quindi, rispettami. grazie  gi una giornata di merda
[04:24] <tritium> USER016623: stop please!
[04:24] <gzzzt> crimsun, exactly that is my problem: i want to disable alsa but cant, since im not supposed to do it via modprobe.conf
[04:25] <netface> need help, please!!! Radeon 9800 pro@xt driver install ubuntu?
[04:25] <crimsun> gzzzt: no, that's simple. Just blacklist the 'snd' module
[04:25] <coach> tritium, i tried, but i only got "no media found"
[04:25] <crimsun> gzzzt: there's no need at all to touch /etc/modprobe.conf
[04:25] <gzzzt> crimsun, whats simple for is maybe hard for me. how do i do that?
[04:25] <crimsun> gzzzt: echo snd | sudo tee -a /etc/hotplug/blacklist
[04:26] <USER016623> Tirami su il viso, che da troppo tempo ormai lascia riposare gli occhi sull'asfalto nero luccicante di sperma vivo.
[04:26] <eth0> aleph0?
[04:26] <gzzzt> crimsun, and this will do what?
[04:26] <crimsun> mike with the cluebat
[04:26] <crimsun> gzzzt: prevent alsa drivers from loading on next boot
[04:26] <USER016623> crosta, hai corrotto la bellezze del mio culo!
[04:27] <tritium> !tell USER016623 about it
[04:27] <gzzzt> crimsun, if i do that, i can easily undo it by removing it from that list, aye?
[04:27] <crimsun> gzzzt: certainly.
[04:27] <coach> tritium, any idea why it says so?
[04:27] <gzzzt> crimsun, i appreciate your help, thanks a lot
[04:27] <tritium> coach: no, not really...
[04:27] <crimsun> gzzzt: np
[04:27] <poet_> hello guys, how to compile modules for ubuntu?  for example: pl2303
[04:28] <coach> hmpf....
[04:28] <crimsun> poet_: on breezy or dapper?
[04:28] <mumbles> wee
[04:28] <coach> k, cya@all
[04:28] <mumbles> ubuntu works on my laptop
[04:28] <mumbles> now ive got to get the wireless card working :(
[04:28] <poet_> crimsun: breezy
[04:28] <crimsun> poet_: install build-essential, gcc-3.4, linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[04:29] <crimsun> poet_: take your source and compile it using CC=gcc-3.4 against linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[04:30] <srid> how do I use emacs-gtk2 with anti-aliased font path in ubuntu?
[04:30] <vax_> hi room
[04:31] <Drakonik> This is the channel for the Ubuntu linux distro, right?
[04:31] <rysiek|pl> yup
[04:32] <Drakonik> Just checking.
[04:32] <matt__> does anyone know where i can get the w32codecs from???
[04:32] <HymnToLife> !plf
[04:32] <ubotu> I heard plf is the Penguin Liberation Front, see http://wiki.ubuntu-fr.org/doc/plf, mainly for i386 users with some packages for ppc
[04:32] <p0mppu> matt__: mplayer site
[04:32] <p0mppu> mplayerhq.hu ?
[04:33] <matt__> i downloaded them ages ago via apt-get but ic ant now??
[04:33] <Drakonik> I just downloaded ubuntu 5.10 with BitTorrent, and I burned the .iso onto a CD I have. What do I do now? I've already tried booting from the CD, which is what I think I was supposed to do.
[04:33] <rysiek|pl> anybody knwos why the /etc/init.d/console-screen.sh script doesn't get called upon boot-up, when usplash is runnung, although it definetely should?
[04:33] <HymnToLife> Drakonik> it is
[04:34] <matt__>
[04:34] <GnarusLeo> Activating windows in VMware seems to be an impossible task ... anyone got any clues?
[04:34] <tristanmike> Drakonik, out of curiosity, did you accedentilly burn the iso file as a single file? or when you look at the disc are there many files?
[04:34] <rysiek|pl> GnarusLeo: yep, use QEMU
[04:34] <rysiek|pl> :)
[04:34] <GnarusLeo> rysiek|pl, QEMU? whats that? Another VM?
[04:34] <Drakonik> tristanmike: One sec, let me look.
[04:35] <GnarusLeo> rysiek|pl, and is it easier to activate it with that?
[04:35] <rysiek|pl> GnarusLeo: yes, it's "another VM", but a GPLed one, too
[04:35] <rysiek|pl> GnarusLeo: I haen't used it, actually, but I've seen it at work
[04:35] <GnarusLeo> rysiek|pl, now _that_ i like, though I have bought vmware
[04:35] <sm> hi all.. what's a good way to schedule recording from audio streams nightly ?
[04:35] <nickrud> rysiek|pl, the first line of console-screen exits if usplash is running
[04:35] <Jhair> does QEMU support Windows XP?
[04:36] <Drakonik> tristanmike: It's not even seeing the CD.
[04:36] <rysiek|pl> GnarusLeo: and I have never seen VMWare on Linux work
[04:36] <Jhair> I mean can I run Windows XP on it?
[04:36] <gzzzt> crimsun, at boot it still shows two alsa cards, and "initializing alsa". and even more the nforce2 audio is still described as "alsa mixer". what should i do else?
[04:36] <tristanmike> Drakonik, :? well, that's not right :P
[04:36] <rambo3> VMWare worked fine for me
[04:36] <rysiek|pl> jhair: I suppose you can. I have seen a Windows98SE installation (!) on QEMU on Debian on... PowerPC!!
[04:36] <GnarusLeo> rysiek|pl, well, vmware is up and running and worsk great (!). Its actually impressive fast ... but the win activating thing doesnt work (couse it cant recognize my key with the Virtual hardware) ... think QEMU should have the same problem
[04:37] <rysiek|pl> I mean: Woindows98SE INSTALATOR
[04:37] <Drakonik> tristanmike: My burner has never worked quite right. At least, I think so, because I"ve rarely, if ever, used it before.
[04:37] <rambo3> but use allways gpl software if there is substitute.
[04:37] <rysiek|pl> GnarusLeo: I have no idea, to be honest. I would just advise you to try it :)
[04:37] <tristanmike> Drakonik, do you normally have a problem reading disks?
[04:37] <Drakonik> NOpe.
[04:37] <Drakonik> Assuming they're un-damaged, of course.
[04:37] <GnarusLeo> rysiek|pl, thanks for the advice then :) Ill give it a go
[04:37] <tristanmike> Drakonik, even burned ones?
[04:37] <Drakonik> Hm.
[04:38] <tristanmike> Drakonik, yes, hm indeed...what program did you used to burn?
[04:38] <Drakonik> Well, I don't think I've used any burned discs. At least, not in this box.
[04:38] <rysiek|pl> nickrud: yes, I know it exits, but look at the comment: "check if usplash is runing and skip this, we'll get run again later"
[04:38] <rysiek|pl> nickrud: and it doesn't :/
[04:38] <Drakonik> I used Hero Burning Rom. It's all we've got.
[04:38] <Drakonik> *Nero
[04:38] <tristanmike> Drakonik, that should be fine
[04:38] <rysiek|pl> GnarusLeo: my pleasure. always like to advertise GPLed software ;)
[04:39] <GnarusLeo> yeah, got your back
[04:39] <Drakonik> Anyway. What were you saying about the .iso being one file, as opposed to several?
[04:39] <HymnToLife> Drakonik> When you browse your CD, do you see one .iso file ?
[04:39] <nickrud> rysiek|pl, good point.
[04:40] <gorkendel> hola
[04:40] <Drakonik> I can't browse the CD.
[04:40] <HymnToLife> !es
[04:40] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[04:40] <HymnToLife> Drakonik> then there's obviously a problem
[04:40] <Drakonik> I'm guessing that there was some kind burning error.
[04:40] <tristanmike> Drakonik, well, if you just "burned" the iso, you would have one file on the cd "image.iso" which is incorrect (it's a comman mistake) so you have to burn "the image file" or something similar which "decompresses" the iso and puts it in it's proper format
[04:40] <Drakonik> ALthough Nero didn't give me any.
[04:40] <rysiek|pl> nickrud: well, yeah, but I would dearly love to get this point to a point where the script actually gets called ;)
[04:40] <Drakonik> Hm.
[04:40] <Drakonik> I see.
[04:41] <tristanmike> Drakonik, if you can't browse the cd, then it may be possible that you didn't burn it..what does the file size say for the cd? or does it error saying there is no cd?
[04:41] <Healot> anyone successfully compiles dapper's firefox on breezy?
[04:41] <Drakonik> It says that there's no CD in the drive.
[04:42] <tristanmike> Drakonik, so it seems that there was a problem with the burning, did you get any errors while burning?
[04:42] <Drakonik> Nope. No errors at all.
[04:43] <tristanmike> only the one drive
[04:43] <nickrud> rysiek|pl  /etc/init.d/usplash is supposed to re run console.screen
[04:43] <rysiek|pl> yeah, looking into it right now
[04:44] <heyjoe2> anyone help with getting the computer to recognize a usb device?
[04:45] <Ex-Cyber> heyjoe2: what kind of device?
[04:46] <michael> deusche sever??
[04:46] <GnarusLeo> OMFG! Conserning win license authorizing with Virtual Machine, MS states that its "only one key pr. machine" - EVEN if its a virtual machine (wich PRESISELY uses the same hardware) ...  Conserning win license authorizing with Virtual Machine, MS states that its "only one key pr. machine" - EVEN if its a virtual machine (wich PRESISELY uses the same hardware) ...  How do I get the "image file" that I need to burn to the CD? I can't use my unzipping util, so do I need to download it or something?
[04:48] <pedrocr> rysiek|pl: yes, I know, but I'm mystified why ubuntu seems to mount rw without me doing anything
[04:48] <Healot> can be done, not recommended though...
[04:48] <GnarusLeo> nah, I used RW on nfts 4 years ago, it worked for about 1 year, then it crashed :)
[04:48] <rysiek|pl> pedrocr: it doesn't mount rw. the default driver doesn't support rw
[04:49] <HymnToLife> Drakonik> in Nero you choose "Open file"
[04:49] <rysiek|pl> GnarusLeo: what did you use? Captive-NTFS?
[04:49] <idefix> when you have a script called runfs you run it with ./runfs, right?
[04:49] <HymnToLife> and open your.iso
[04:49] <louka> hi
[04:49] <Drakonik> Oh.
[04:49] <Drakonik> D'oh.
[04:49] <heyjoe2> Ex-Cyber: it is a 128mb legend usb driv
[04:49] <GnarusLeo> rysiek|pl, dont remember actually, think MDK had something unofficial ..
[04:49] <larsemil> idefix, sh runfs
[04:49] <shivan> Hi
[04:49] <idefix> why do I get a silly output like nohup: appending output to `nohup.out' ??
[04:50] <Drakonik> I hope this works. This is my last blank CD.
[04:50] <rysiek|pl> GnarusLeo: well, Captive uses the official Microsoft drivers - just establishes a compatibility layer between the M$ NTFS driver and the Linux kernel :]
[04:50] <GnarusLeo> hehe,good luck :)
[04:50] <idefix> ./runfs and sh runfs both give it
[04:50] <GnarusLeo> rysiek|pl, that sounds safe enough? Ever tested it?
[04:50] <chrisw69> can i use tahoma on linux?
[04:50] <HymnToLife> Drakonik> hold on a sec
[04:50] <tristanmike> chrisw69, the font?
[04:50] <chrisw69> ya
[04:51] <Ex-Cyber> heyjoe2: I'm not sure what to suggest... normally USB drives "just work" in ubuntu
[04:51] <idefix> larsemil?
[04:51] <nickrud> idefix, that's an info thing; you might be able to get rid of it with a >/dev/null in the right place in the script
[04:51] <larsemil> idefix,  dont know
[04:51] <tristanmike> chrisw69, i think you'll have to bring a copy of the ttf over, but all "ttf's" can be used un Ubuntu
[04:51] <idefix> am I allowed to paste the script into here? I was just trying to install this program called slimeforest
[04:51] <idefix> it's only three lines
[04:52] <chrisw69> how do i install it?
[04:52] <heyjoe2> Ex-Cyber: i plug it in and nothing happens
[04:52] <heyjoe2> Ex-Cyber: and it works a charm on the mac os x's at uni
[04:52] <jan_> when i do a lspci i get id on my wlan card: 0000:02:07.0, but it's supposed to be on the form XXXX:XXXX. What is the trick here?
[04:52] <tristanmike> chrisw69, you should be able to drop it in your /home/<user>./fonts  directory
[04:52] <heyjoe2> ohwell. anyone else know how to specially configure usb drives?
[04:53] <chrisw69> cool thanks
[04:53] <idefix> #!/bin/sh
[04:53] <idefix>   cd `dirname $0`/jquest

[04:53] <HymnToLife> Drakonik> here's what you need to use http://img58.imageshack.us/img58/8537/nero1gj.jpg

[04:53] <idefix> :-|
[04:54] <Drakonik> There's a problem. It says that I can't start a multi-session disc for some reason.
[04:54] <larsemil> idefix, u have nohup on comp?
[04:54] <DjDarkman> hi ,how can i restart alsa?
[04:54] <tristanmike> multi-session?
[04:54] <idefix> there is a man nohup, so I think so..
[04:54] <chrisw69> thanks
[04:54] <tristanmike> Drakonik, it should be saying that
[04:54] <mike-e> hi where's the wiki for upgrading hoary to breezy
[04:54] <shivan> Can you help me pls -> oaidl_p.c:5455: Fehler: Zuweisung der schreibgeschtzten Variable guid
[04:54] <HymnToLife> Drakonik> see the red ellipsearound the open button, click on it
[04:54] <nickrud> idefix, no idea, never heard of it. > /dev/null after -fullscreen should get rid of the info message though
[04:55] <HymnToLife> and choose your iso
[04:55] <idefix> I'd rather have the message and the game installed

[04:56] <jimjawn> Hey all!  I'm having mad problems with ctrl+backspace resetting my gnome-session.  I think it might be XGL anyone know how to fix it?
[04:57] <gnomefreak> jimjawn: please ask in #xgl-ubuntu
[04:57] <Drakonik> Okay, I saw the burn image file, and it's running.
[04:57] <tristanmike> Drakonik, that should work for you
[04:57] <jimjawn> gnomefreak thanks
[04:57] <gnomefreak> jimyw
[04:57] <tristanmike> gnomefreak, to late :P
[04:58] <gnomefreak> lol what else is new :)
[04:58] <gareth> hi
[04:58] <gareth> ive just hosed my PC
[04:58] <gareth> as in 100% gone
[04:58] <gnomefreak> gareth: what did you do?
[04:58] <gareth> and as i cant reinstall windows, i could use some help
[04:58] <gareth> i intended to install ubuntu on a separate partition
[04:58] <gareth> but windows wouldnt boot after that
[04:59] <paradizelost> Hey all.  I'm having some problems getting vncserver to work
[04:59] <windowmaker> HAH
[04:59] <gareth> so i cant install windows- because it was oem
[04:59] <windowmaker> that's so funny to see as son as you enter a channel
[04:59] <paradizelost> it seems to start, but doesn't
[04:59] <gareth> so, i need to know how to use this
[04:59] <tristanmike> gareth, do you mean you borked it resizing your partition?
[04:59] <paradizelost> and i'm not getting any errors
[04:59] <gareth> not exactly
[04:59] <vars> !nvidia
[04:59] <ubotu> nvidia is, like, totally, at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia or http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=57368
[05:00] <gareth> it worked the partition resize let ubuntu boot, but 2 windows files got lost
[05:00] <gareth> at least thats what i think
[05:00] <gareth> but now i only have ubuntu
[05:00] <jadrifter> Good Morning all.
[05:00] <tritium> gareth: not likely
[05:00] <Drakonik> Okay. The CD is burned.
[05:00] <Drakonik> Now, how do I boot from it?
[05:00] <gareth> so i need to know, does ubuntu have a firewall included in the default install?
[05:00] <codemac> Is there somewhere I can search online for officially supported packages for ubuntu?
[05:01] <paradizelost> gareth: i recommend installing firestarter
[05:01] <nickrud> gareth, check to see that http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9962 is at the end of /boot/grub/menu.lst , if not add it
[05:01] <WilliamCai> Hello guys
[05:01] <jadrifter> Anyone know how to change the default editor from nano to vim in Ubuntu?  I can't find the setting in /etc
[05:01] <tristanmike> Drakonik, so take the same steps, in your BIOS configure your boot order to boot from cd (if it isn't already)
[05:01] <gnomefreak> Drakonik: put it in the cdrom reboot go into bios make sure you change it to boot from cdrom
[05:01] <idefix> what does it mean when you run a command immune to hangups?
[05:01] <Drakonik> I don't want to make it permanent, though.
[05:01] <nickrud> jadrifter, sudo update-alternatives --config editor
[05:01] <tristanmike> Drakonik, we'll change it back :)
[05:01] <WilliamCai> Could anybody show me some clues about the status of Ubuntu Server features?
[05:01] <Drakonik> D'oh!
[05:01] <Drakonik> RIght. I...forgot about that.
[05:02] <Drakonik> Well, I'm going to reboot, and if it works, then I'll come back here and report, somehow.
[05:02] <kumy> hi
[05:02] <vars> hey i have a geforcefx 5500 is that a gforce 2?
[05:02] <jadrifter> nickrud, god bless you!  I was going crazy!
[05:02] <tristanmike> Drakonik, see you in a half hour to an hour
[05:02] <Drakonik> Alrighty then.
[05:03] <kumy> I've a problem : my "lo" interface doesn't start at boot... could you help me ? please
[05:03] <paradizelost> Hey, can anyone help me with vncserver?
[05:03] <gnomefreak> vars: install the nvidia-setting and the nvidia-glx
[05:03] <tristanmike> Drakonik, hint, once your installed "Applications-Internet-xchat"
[05:03] <Ohm> HI guys
[05:03] <jadrifter> update-alternatives.  Is that a Ubuntu program?  I've never seen it before.
[05:03] <Ohm> How can I KILL a program in process?
[05:03] <Drakonik> Thanks. I was hoping there'd be an IRC client in there.
[05:03] <tristanmike> Drakonik, you know it ;)
[05:03] <paradizelost> ohm:  kill -9 pid or killall -9 programname
[05:03] <Drakonik> Hasta luego, mi amigos.
[05:03] <Ohm> I can't stop it, clickong in X close
[05:03] <nickrud> jadrifter, it's a debian thing, carried over. all the alternatives are listed in /etc/alternatives
[05:03] <Ohm> hmmmm
[05:03] <paradizelost> ah,  xkill
[05:03] <idefix> can anyone explain to me how to install a just downloaded program?
[05:03] <Ohm> I will try that
[05:03] <michael> dusche sever?????????'
[05:04] <michael> deusche
[05:04] <vars> gnomefreek   is the binary how to the one i need to follow?
[05:04] <paradizelost> ohm: just be careful where you click
[05:04] <Ohm> kill -9 pid? what does mean PID?
[05:04] <paradizelost> process id
[05:04] <tristanmike> idefix, which program ?
[05:04] <gnomefreak> vars: yes just install the 2 i said above
[05:04] <rambo3> process id
[05:04] <paradizelost> if you do a ps -eaf, it'll list everything that's running
[05:04] <idefix> sfa
[05:04] <Ohm> hmmm, the program name in the case
[05:04] <Ohm> oks
[05:04] <paradizelost> there's a process id number
[05:04] <gnomefreak> michael: #ubuntu-de
[05:04] <idefix> or slimeforest, a program to learn japanese hiragana and katakana
[05:04] <jadrifter> nickrud, I was just going through the manfile.  Beautiful!  Gotta love "The Debian Way".
[05:04] <tristanmike> idefix, sfa?
[05:04] <vars> ok i've done that and just that
[05:05] <paradizelost> ohm:  or, if you are really having problems in X,  CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE
[05:05] <vars> gnomefreak, do i have to enable it or anything?
[05:05] <paradizelost> it will kill X
[05:05] <vars> or just start x?
[05:05] <gnomefreak> vars: are you on breezy?
[05:05] <jadrifter> nickrud, thanks again.  I'm a sys admin, we're switching our servers to Ubuntu, and I keep getting nano when I go to edit unless I remember to set the visual env.
[05:05] <vars> yes breezy
[05:05] <vars> --- server install though
[05:05] <nickrud> jadrifter, yeah, that's exactly where you want to be as an admin :)
[05:05] <vars> shouldn't be a problem
[05:05] <Ohm> but CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE, logoff?
[05:05] <gnomefreak> vars: you have any gui?
[05:06] <vars> fluxbox
[05:06] <paradizelost> ohm:  it kills X and everything that would be running in X at the time
[05:06] <tristanmike> idefix, how did it download ? deb? tar.bz2 ?
[05:06] <Ohm> My problem is, the GNOME ART-MANAGER is dowloading 1500!!!! backgrounds
[05:06] <gnomefreak> vars: ok use the enable command shown on that page than restart X
[05:06] <idefix> sfa.tgz
[05:06] <Ohm> and, I can't stop it
[05:06] <idefix> tristanmike: sfa.tgz
[05:06] <vars> gnomefreek thankyou
[05:06] <paradizelost> how did you pull that off??? ;)
[05:06] <kumy> anyone for my loopback interface problem that doesn't start at boot ?
[05:07] <paradizelost> xkill should do the trick
[05:07] <gnomefreak> vars: yw but you may also need to run another command
[05:07] <ryanakca> to switch from kubuntu to ubuntu or xubuntu without having to downloading an install disk, you just go "apt-get install ubuntu-desktop" once you've got "apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop" (if you want to get rid of kubuntu)   and vice versa for ubuntu - kde or xubuntu, right?
[05:07] <tristanmike> idefix, ok, so right click on the file and select "extract here"
[05:07] <idefix> I moved the directory to ~/bin
[05:07] <paradizelost> just run xkill, then click in the window you want to ogo away
[05:07] <idefix> should I extract it to the desktop you mean?
[05:07] <tristanmike> idefix, yes
[05:07] <Ohm> How I see a programa ID?
[05:07] <nickrud> ryanakca, install yes, but uninstall no
[05:07] <paradizelost> you won't need the pid with xkill
[05:08] <idefix> ok there is now a slimeforest directory on my desktop
[05:08] <paradizelost> xkill will turn your mouse cursor into a skull and crossbones
[05:08] <Ohm> hmmmm
[05:08] <gnomefreak> ryanakca: that will remove the meta package but there is alot more involved than just running apt-get remove
[05:08] <Ohm> good
[05:08] <paradizelost> just click in the window you want to go away
[05:08] <tristanmike> idefix, you should do all your work from somewhere in your /home<usrname>  directory, I perfer working from the Desktop then cleaning up after I'm done
[05:08] <axisys> !ldap
[05:08] <ubotu> axisys: Syntax error in line 1. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[05:08] <axisys> !openldap
[05:08] <ubotu> Huh? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, axisys
[05:08] <Ohm> It is the KILLPROGRAM in KURUMIN?
[05:08] <paradizelost> just be careful not to click on the desktop or anyhing
[05:08] <vars> gnomefreak, what is the other command that i need to run?
[05:08] <nickrud> lol
[05:08] <paradizelost> not familiar with kurmin
[05:08] <axisys> is there a openldap pkg out there for ubuntu?
[05:08] <Ohm> hmmmm
[05:08] <Ng> axisys: yes
[05:09] <Ohm> oks
[05:09] <tristanmike> idefix, ok, enter the directory and search for either something that ends in ".sh" or something that says "configure" do you see either?
[05:09] <Ohm> I will try
[05:09] <Ng> axisys: it's probably called slapd
[05:09] <gnomefreak> vars: you might have to run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and make sure you have the driver setting to nvidia
[05:09] <tristanmike> idefix, can I get a link to the file to see what you have?
[05:09] <rysiek|pl> brb
[05:09] <idefix> there's runfs.sh, runwin.sh, two txt files and a jquest directory
[05:09] <paradizelost> anyone available to assist me w/ vncserver, i installed it, it seems to start, no errors, but doesn't
[05:09] <idefix> http://lrnj.com/
[05:10] <Drakonik> Well, that was a resounding failure.
[05:10] <GnarusLeo> paradizelost, "vncserver :0" gives you what?
[05:10] <tristanmike> Drakonik, ohhh, why? same thing?
[05:10] <chrisw69> hi there
[05:10] <Ohm> :) thats OK!
[05:10] <Ohm> thanks!
[05:10] <paradizelost> says that it's taken
[05:10] <henk> in gnome my volume wheel on my keyboard works and it shows a popup with the volume. How do i get this in kde ?
[05:10] <paradizelost> but i want to havea vncserver running on :1
[05:10] <idefix> tristanmike http://lrnj.com
[05:10] <jager> anyone know a way to detect machines that are spewing virii on a local network?
[05:10] <Drakonik> Well, my BIOS was already configured to use Boot-from-CD as it's first priority, however: It iddn't boot from the CD.
[05:10] <GnarusLeo> paradizelost, "vncserver :1" then?
[05:11] <paradizelost> New 'sobek:1 (dan)' desktop is sobek:1
[05:11] <jager> i thought maybe etherape would show me this traffic but it does not appear to do so
[05:11] <tristanmike> Drakonik, can your browse the cd now?
[05:11] <paradizelost> but it doesn't actually start
[05:11] <Drakonik> One sec
[05:11] <GnarusLeo> paradizelost, what do you mean? What error do you get?
[05:11] <tristanmike> chrisw69, hi, please keep all conversation here, thank you :)
[05:11] <chrisw69> ok
[05:11] <paradizelost> no error, but there is no process running when it finishes
[05:11] <chrisw69> i can't copy to the font folder
[05:11] <chrisw69> it says i don't have permission
[05:12] <chrisw69> I'm new :\
[05:12] <tristanmike> chrisw69, you can't copy to /home/chris69/.fonts  ?
[05:12] <Lorentz`> evening people
[05:12] <jager> in fact it shows me less traffic than i expected by far
[05:12] <tristanmike> chrisw69, it's no worries at all =)
[05:12] <Lorentz`> i'm currently working on changing the default gnome menu items for a corporate rollout of ubuntu
[05:12] <GnarusLeo> paradizelost, so when you type "vncserver :2" or whatever .. do you get something like "New 'X' desktop is tryodin:2
[05:12] <GnarusLeo> " ?
[05:12] <Lorentz`> but according to the manual, i should be able to enter applications-all-users:/// in nautilus
[05:12] <Drakonik> Nope. It's not reading a CD.
[05:12] <Lorentz`> it gives me an error though
[05:13] <Lorentz`> anyone who can tell me wether applications-all-users://, preferences-all-users://, etc have been removed in ubuntu?
[05:13] <tristanmike> Drakonik, hmmm
[05:13] <paradizelost> yes.  but if i do a ps -eaf there is no process in the list, and i cannot connect to the session
[05:13] <tristanmike> Drakonik, do you have other burned cd's there you can try...?
[05:13] <chrisw69> i can't copy the font i want over though
[05:13] <vars> ok how many kb asre in a Mb
[05:13] <idefix> tristanmike? do I need java or something for the program?
[05:13] <chrisw69> how do i do it?
[05:13] <Drakonik> There was the first one I burned which had the same problem.
[05:13] <tristanmike> idefix, sorry, I don't think so....looking....
[05:14] <GnarusLeo> paradizelost, do a "ps aux | grep vnc" and check for any XrealVNC or something in that list
[05:14] <paradizelost> root      6249  0.0  0.0   1624   492 pts/2    S+   10:20   0:00 grep vnc
[05:14] <paradizelost> is the only item
[05:14] <ryanakca> gnomefreak: how do you remove kubuntu / kde and install ubuntu / gnome? or can they co-exist?
[05:14] <vars> ok how many kb are  in a Mb  i am serious
[05:14] <paradizelost> vars:1024
[05:15] <GnarusLeo> paradizelost, hm, thats strange ... have you checked your deamons?
[05:15] <paradizelost> for example???
[05:15] <gnomefreak> ryanakca: they can both be installed on system and you choose to use either one at log-in screen under sessions
[05:15] <tristanmike> idefix, ok, easy peasy
[05:15] <Ohm> My totem cantt open any video :( What I do?
[05:15] <tristanmike> idefix, i ran the game in full screen there and couldn't get back, :P lol
[05:15] <vars> so a 256 MB would have 256*1024   kb?
[05:15] <paradizelost> vars: http://familyinternet.about.com/cs/computinghelp/l/aa052401a.htm
[05:16] <GnarusLeo> paradizelost, probably an easier way to display them, but old school I use the "service" command (not installed default by ubuntu) to list my services
[05:16] <gnomefreak> vars yes
[05:16] <idefix> so it works on your PC!
[05:16] <idefix> tristanmike..
[05:16] <tristanmike> idefix, simply cd into the slimeforest folder and type "./runfs" for full screen and "./runwin" for windowed mode
[05:16] <tristanmike> idefix, yeah, looks neat
[05:16] <GnarusLeo> tristanmike, what is good old "service" command substitued with in ubuntu?
[05:16] <idefix> when I do this I get nohup: appending output to `nohup.out`
[05:17] <tristanmike> Drakonik, I'm beginning to suspect a bad drive
[05:17] <idefix> when I do this I get nohup: appending output to `nohup.out'
[05:17] <rysiek|pl> nickrud: ok, I got the problem with console-screen.sh not being called by usplash almost pinned-down, would you help me for 5 mins with a sorta long IF condition?
[05:17] <Drakonik> It's possible.
[05:17] <tristanmike> GnarusLeo, top ?
[05:17] <nickrud> rysiek|pl, I'm a low intermediate bash scripter, but I'll look :)
[05:17] <Drakonik> But, I don't think my drive is bad. It read everything else I put in.
[05:17] <idefix> oh heck!
[05:17] <tristanmike> Drakonik, do you have another burned cd, aside from the first one, you can try and read dat off ?
[05:18] <GnarusLeo> tristanmike, can you stop and start services with top?
[05:18] <Drakonik> Hm.
[05:18] <Drakonik> Let me look. I might be able to find one.
[05:18] <vars> gnomefreak, should i use frambuffer/
[05:18] <vars> ?
[05:18] <tristanmike> GnarusLeo, man top  :P
[05:18] <chrisw69> can anyone tell me how to install tahoma on my system
[05:18] <nickrud> GnarusLeo, invoke-rc.d is the services semi-equiv
[05:18] <rysiek|pl> !pastebin
[05:18] <ubotu> it has been said that pastebin is a site where you can post large texts and screenshots so you don't flood the channel. You can find it at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org - Install webboard for easy pasting from the gnome taskbar :)
[05:18] <gnomefreak> vars: start with no
[05:18] <idefix> tristanmike, how come your linux does it and mine doesn't?!
[05:18] <vars> wha the heck is frmaebuffer?
[05:18] <GnarusLeo> there you  have it, thanks nickrud  ... paradizelost, did you get that?
[05:19] <paradizelost> nuts, was looking elsewhere..
[05:19] <paradizelost> get what?
[05:19] <idefix> :'''(
[05:19] <Drak|Busy> Okay. One drive can read the burned CD. Now to test the other.
[05:19] <GnarusLeo> use invoke-rc.d to display your deamons
[05:20] <idefix> tristanmike? you still with me?
[05:20] <rysiek|pl> nickrud: this seems TRUE upon shutdown, but FALSE upon boot-up: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9963
[05:20] <tristanmike> idefix, sorry
[05:20] <tristanmike> idefix, phone call
[05:20] <idefix> nohup: appending output to `nohup.out'
[05:20] <idefix> that's what I get
[05:20] <rysiek|pl> nickrud: and this needs to be TRUE if the console-screen.sh script is to be executed
[05:20] <tobias_> #ubuntu.se
[05:20] <Drak|Busy> Well, I think I may have found the problem.
[05:20] <remybr> Hello, I need some help. I'm trying to install ubuntu 5.10 on a imac 233. Anyone know how to disable DRI during the instalation?
[05:20] <paradizelost> ok, so with that, what should i be checking to get vncserver working?
[05:20] <tristanmike> idefix, so you "cd slimeforest" and run "./runwin" and nothing?
[05:21] <axisys> Ng: I just need the ldap client.. slapd is the answer?
[05:21] <Drak|Busy> The burning drive can't read the burned CD>
[05:21] <Drak|Busy> Let me rebot and try again.
[05:21] <idefix>  ./runwin
[05:21] <idefix> nohup: appending output to `nohup.out'
[05:21] <nickrud> rysiek|pl, I don't know what half of those things are supposed to do in the first place
[05:21] <gnomefreak> abs guide :)
[05:21] <idefix> tristanmike  ./runwin
[05:21] <idefix> nohup: appending output to `nohup.out'
[05:22] <rysiek|pl> nickrud: ok, I'll set some more debug in place in usplash script (so that we know, what is TRUE and waht's not) and reboot to see the output
[05:22] <paradizelost> ok, i loaded tightvncserver instead of vnc4server, but i get an error about not being able to open default font 'fixed'
[05:22] <GnarusLeo> paradizelost, I hounestly dont know ... just found out that vncserver wasnt a daemon at all .. sry
[05:22] <tristanmike> idefix, it appears it may be library issues, like you don't have the proper ones installed
[05:22] <tristanmike> idefix, ....looking.....
[05:22] <idefix> so.. how do I fix this?
[05:23] <GnarusLeo> damn VMware takes alot of mem
[05:23] <Healot> yes...
[05:23] <paradizelost> gnarusleo: what version of vmware are you using?
[05:24] <HymnToLife> what did you expect ? lol
[05:24] <HymnToLife> you run your OS twice
[05:24] <axisys> !slapd
[05:24] <ubotu> axisys: No idea, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[05:24] <w0rmz> when is the next release of ubuntu ?
[05:24] <rysiek|pl> april
[05:24] <gnomefreak> april 20th
[05:24] <nickrud> !info slapd
[05:24] <ubotu> slapd: (OpenLDAP server (slapd)), section net, is optional. Version: 2.2.26-3 (breezy), Packaged size: 844 kB, Installed size: 2396 kB
[05:24] <tristanmike> idefix, the readme is crap
[05:24] <GnarusLeo> paradizelost, VMware Player 1.0.1 build-19175
[05:24] <paradizelost> because with vmware server, you can have it cache most of the vm's to disk, reduce the memory usage if you don't use the virtual machine for a while
[05:25] <paradizelost> i'd use vmware server, it's also free now.
[05:25] <axisys> nickrud: it should have ldapsearch tool no?
[05:25] <paradizelost> it's the equivalent of Vmware GSX
[05:25] <GnarusLeo> HymnToLife, of course ;) but 30% was more then expected ..
[05:25] <paradizelost> and you can create virtual machines
[05:25] <nickrud> axisys, you can find out what's in a package on packages.ubuntu.com
[05:25] <paradizelost> that's what i have running on about 5 machines
[05:25] <idefix> tristanmike, how long do you use linux?
[05:25] <w0rmz> gnomefreak. thanks dude
[05:25] <GnarusLeo> Whats bothering me now is the windows activating on VMware(!)
[05:25] <gnomefreak> yw
[05:25] <axisys> nickrud: i will chk it out.. thnx
[05:25] <tristanmike> idefix, since June of last year
[05:25] <remybr> Hello, I need some help. I'm trying to install ubuntu 5.10 on a imac 233. Anyone know how to disable DRI during the instalation?
[05:26] <tristanmike> idefix, open synaptic and search for "sdl"
[05:26] <GnarusLeo> paradizelost, how did your win activation go? If you have it
[05:26] <vars> gnomefreak yay it works
[05:26] <gnomefreak> ;)
[05:26] <paradizelost> just fine.
[05:26] <emad__> Hi there
[05:26] <paradizelost> if you have activated the os before, you may need to call M$
[05:26] <paradizelost> just tell them you are doing a re-install
[05:26] <idefix> tristanmike maybe it works on hoary and not on my version
[05:27] <tristanmike> idefix, i'm on breezy
[05:27] <nickrud> gnomefreak, I meant to ask, did you ever get e17 working?
[05:27] <GnarusLeo> where will that get you ... apperantly they policy says one key pr machine (EVEN though its a virtual) ...
[05:27] <idefix> tristanmike hmm, strange
[05:27] <gnomefreak> nickrud: nope
[05:27] <tristanmike> idefix, did you search for "sdl" ?
[05:27] <paradizelost> they don't need to know that.
[05:27] <paradizelost> :D
[05:27] <idefix> tristanmike it isn't in the list
[05:27] <nickrud> gnomefreak, then I'm gonna try one last thing today, then give up
[05:27] <gnomefreak> nickrud: you couldnt get it either?
[05:27] <paradizelost> or, you could try a volume license version of windows
[05:28] <tristanmike> idefix, in synaptic, look for libsdl1.2debian and is it installed ?
[05:28] <GnarusLeo> paradizelost, which is?
[05:28] <nickrud> gnomefreak, I ran into some issues, ran out of time, and haven't had the time to try again
[05:28] <paradizelost> doesn't require activation, because it can be used on an indefinite number of systems w the same key
[05:28] <paradizelost> normally used in corporations
[05:28] <gnomefreak> ahh
[05:28] <vars> ok, now copuld someone who has actually done this in th past help me with this?   i have a seperate /home with my home information on it and i just reinstalled breezy, how do i recover my old user information?
[05:28] <GnarusLeo> paradizelost, nah, dont use any pirate keys
[05:29] <idefix> tristanmike, there are 5  libsdl1.2debian 's
[05:29] <transgress> can i ask dapper questions in here or does it have to be in #ubuntu+1
[05:29] <transgress> ?
[05:29] <GnarusLeo> paradizelost, not _that_ desperate to get win up running :)
[05:29] <emad__> I need your help I have just installed ubuntu last releas and when I use synaptic to install gnome-blutooth the error message says :gnome-bluetooth:
[05:29] <emad__>  Depends: libbtctl2 but it is not going to be installed
[05:29] <emad__>  Depends: libopenobex-1.0-0 (>=1.0.0-rel) but it is not installable
[05:29] <emad__>  Depends: python2.4-libbtctl but it is not going to be installed
[05:29] <HymnToLife> paradizelost> or with OEM PCs
[05:29] <paradizelost> then just call the activation center, and tell them taht it's a re-install
[05:29] <idefix>  libsdl1.2debian -alsa, -arts, -esd, -nas and -oss
[05:29] <gnomefreak> nickrud: not for e17 you wont find one worth a crap
[05:29] <tristanmike> idefix, just the "libsdl1.2debian" nothing else
[05:29] <GnarusLeo> !tell emad__ spam
[05:29] <rysiek|pl> gotta go, guys
[05:29] <tristanmike> idefix, is it installed ?
[05:29] <paradizelost> OEM pc's require activation
[05:29] <HymnToLife> the Windows version I got with my HPs don't require activation either
[05:29] <LoCusF> !spam
[05:29] <nickrud> gnomefreak, yours ;p
[05:29] <paradizelost> hmm most of them that i see do
[05:29] <rysiek|pl> cu all, cu nickrud, thx for the help :)
[05:29] <ubotu> No idea, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, LoCusF
[05:29] <gnomefreak> emad__: no pasting in here please use pastebin for all your pasting needs
[05:29] <idefix> tristanmike the square next to it is green
[05:29] <nickrud> selinium, ryanakca
[05:30] <emad__> ok sorry
[05:30] <tristanmike> idefix, ok, that's installed
[05:30] <GnarusLeo> !tell emad__ pastebin
[05:30] <gnomefreak> lol nickrud i havent had time to look at it but i think compiling is best bet
[05:30] <nickrud> darn completion
[05:30] <gnomefreak> maybe not
[05:30] <gnomefreak> hold on a min
[05:30] <GnarusLeo> !tell ?
[05:30] <idefix> tristanmike, so what else could be the problem?
[05:31] <tristanmike> idefix, hmm, I suspect libraries because no where does it mention java, flash, or any other crazy software to run, it does mention some libraries are needed but is not specific, the readme as I said, is crap
[05:32] <sanbec> Hi
[05:32] <idefix> tristanmike, well I've gotta go, thanks for your help, I guess I'll have to live without the program
[05:32] <Ash-Fox_> !ati
[05:32] <ubotu> I guess ati is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI or http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=24557&page=1&pp=10 or http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=423589
[05:32] <tristanmike> idefix, wait, one more thin
[05:33] <tristanmike> idefix, enter the "jquest" directory inside slime forest
[05:33] <emad__> any one can help me for gnome-buetooth ?
[05:33] <paradizelost> any of you guys know how to get squirrelmail working properly on ubuntu?
[05:33] <idefix> ok
[05:33] <tristanmike> idefix, and double click on the "jquest" icon
[05:33] <GnarusLeo> !bluetooth
[05:33] <ubotu> bluetooth is, like, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BluetoothSetup and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BluetoothRemote
[05:33] <idefix> tristanmike, nothing happens
[05:33] <paradizelost> i've installed it, but can't access it through the web server that i can find...
[05:33] <GnarusLeo> emad__, easy howtos
[05:33] <tristanmike> idefix, ok, see the file nohup.out ? open it and see what it says
[05:34] <idefix> ./jquest: error while loading shared libraries: libSDL_image-1.2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[05:34] <emad__> but there is an error when I need to install it
[05:34] <sanbec> In firefox, when I click over an irc link, I get a message like "IRC is an unknown protocol"
[05:34] <GnarusLeo> emad__, wich error?
[05:34] <Drakonik> Is there some kind of button that I'm supposed to hit to boot from a CD?
[05:34] <Drakonik> If there is, I've never heard of it.
[05:34] <tristanmike> idefix, search for "libsdl-image1.2" in synaptic and install
[05:35] <GnarusLeo> Draconicus, depends on your bios
[05:35] <sanbec> I want any progrna like x-chat to be opened
[05:35] <idefix> tristanmike? is that all? will it work then?
[05:35] <vars> ok, now copuld someone who has actually done this in th past help me with this?   i have a seperate /home with my home information on it and i just reinstalled breezy, how do i recover my old user information?
[05:35] <tristanmike> idefix, I suspect
[05:35] <emad__> gnome-bluetooth: Depends: libbtctl2 but it is not going to be installed
[05:35] <emad__> what shoul i do
[05:35] <paradizelost> vars:  you would just mount that partition to /home
[05:35] <HymnToLife> vars> by just remounting your old /home partition on /home
[05:35] <dyrne> Drakonik: some laptops (toshiba ) you can just hit like 'c' at bootup but normally you have to strike esc or f1 and change the boot order for the computer
[05:35] <GnarusLeo> emad__, then install the libs
[05:35] <emad__> ?
[05:36] <paradizelost> mount /dev/sd## /home
[05:36] <HymnToLife> (assuming you have the same usernam)
[05:36] <GnarusLeo> emad__, "sudo apt-get install libbtctl2"
[05:36] <Drakonik> Crap. I guess that means I'll have to dig though my BIOS and look for a key I'm supposed to hit.
[05:36] <emad__> it says : but it is not going to be installed for each lib I want to install it seperately
[05:36] <idefix> tristanmike, do I click "Mark All Upgrades" now?
[05:36] <tristanmike> Drakonik, your not on a mac are you?
[05:36] <gnomefreak> nickrud: i just heard compiling it is easy :(
[05:36] <Drakonik> Nope. PC. Desktop.
[05:36] <rumburack> hi is there someone with hamachi installed ? i need a little help with connecting to friens
[05:37] <tristanmike> idefix, yeah, just put a check in that one box, and install anything it wants to
[05:37] <GnarusLeo> emad__, did you do what I told you?
[05:37] <vars> i did taht at installation, but i can't just pickup my old user account where it was left off
[05:37] <tristanmike> Drakonik, is it a Dell or something?
[05:37] <emad__> yes yes yes I know
[05:37] <nickrud> gnomefreak, I'm probably gonna just get all the debs, and do a dpkg -i * (thank god for aptitude for cleanup, if it really gets choppy)
[05:37] <Drakonik> Nope. Not a dell.
[05:37] <Drakonik> It's a "Pravo"
[05:37] <Drakonik> And really, really old.
[05:37] <emad__> can I talk to U in private ?
[05:37] <gnomefreak> lol
[05:37] <Drakonik> At least, I think so.
[05:37] <GnarusLeo> emad__, shoot
[05:37] <Drakonik> It's probably been in the family for a decade or so.
[05:38] <emad__> first thing ( I'm new in ubuntu  )
[05:38] <tristanmike> Drakonik, lol, well, I would see if your cd's boot in a friends computer, or at least browseable
[05:38] <Drakonik> The motherboard has been upgraded, though.
[05:38] <GnarusLeo> emad__, guess what :) Me too
[05:38] <Drakonik> Hm.
[05:38] <emad__> and I'm from kuwait too
[05:38] <Protocol1> can someone help me on getting proper glx support for my intel video card?
[05:38] <gnomefreak> lol at i cant compile it
[05:38] <emad__> poor in english so be patient with me
[05:38] <GnarusLeo> emad__, well, just dont speak kuwaiti to me and we'll be fine :)
[05:38] <dyrne> Protocol1: its onboard video?
[05:39] <Drakonik> I guess I could try loading it on mom's lap-top.
[05:39] <emad__> loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool I hope you will know
[05:39] <Q-FUNK> is there any repository where I could find versions of ubuntu-artwork prior to 3? i.e. prior to ubuntulooks
[05:39] <Protocol1> dyrne, yeah
[05:39] <Protocol1> its a laptop
[05:39] <tristanmike> Drakonik, just see if it's browesable, no need to write anything over
[05:39] <nosilver4u> anyone know why svgs wouldn't give me previews randomly?
[05:39] <tristanmike> Drak|Away, just see if it's browesable, no need to write anything over
[05:39] <Drak|Away> Yeah, I know.
[05:40] <rumburack> pls Hamachi users PM me :)
[05:40] <tristanmike> idefix, how's it comming ?
[05:40] <gnomefreak> nickrud: do you still have that site (the repo)
[05:40] <dyrne> Protocol1: i just did sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and change the video driver to i810 annd the other settings default.  worked for me
[05:40] <nosilver4u> i have one folder with 2 svgs and some other images, and previews show up in nautilus just fine, but then i have another with tons of svgs, and no previews
[05:40] <pfhortron> dgen won't work
[05:40] <GnarusLeo> emad__, well ... you havent actually asked me anything yet, so Ill take a shower, and maybe we'll talk when I get back ... ok
[05:40] <tristanmike> not well it seems
[05:40] <Protocol1> dyrne, the video card is a Intel 82852 / 855GM
[05:40] <Drac|Crate> Hmm..
[05:41] <Protocol1> its running off that right now...i selected the i810
[05:41] <emad__> ok ok as you like :(
[05:41] <poet_> @all: the bet way to compile modulos in ubuntu is with module-assistant ?
[05:41] <dyrne> Protocol1: the i810 should work i havent used the 910 driver. it should be an option in dapper but not breezy i thing
[05:41] <poet_> s/bet/best

[05:44] <g3nocide> nickrud: thanks
[05:44] <matrix> Can any one please tell me how to connect to VPN

[05:44] <pfhortron> is there a ubuntu PPC channel for PowerPC arch
[05:44] <paradizelost> drac|crate:  any results?
[05:45] <Drac|Crate> paradizelost, it's on. I should note that I'm riskily running the harddrive and CD-ROM drive on the same cable due to IDE controller problems with this BIOS. Could that also be the cause?
[05:45] <matrix> Can any one please tell me how to connect to VPN
[05:45] <gnomefreak> pfhortron: you found it
[05:45] <paradizelost> could be.
[05:45] <paradizelost> is the hard drive dma turned on?
[05:45] <Drac|Crate> Lemme check.
[05:46] <stendhal> tristanmike,  thanks a lot this is a good gamr
[05:46] <stendhal> game*
[05:46] <Drac|Crate> paradizelost, yes, both drives have DMA turned on.
[05:46] <tristanmike> stendhal, I believe it's based off of war/starcraft
[05:46] <paradizelost> k.  did you say the audio was choppy?
[05:46] <Drak|Away> Okay, I'm back.
[05:46] <tristanmike> gnomefreak, is it just me, or has a lot of ppc users been looking for thier own channel lately?
[05:46] <paradizelost> is the disk scratched?
[05:46] <tristanmike> Drak|Away, how are things going
[05:46] <Protocol1> can someone help me get support for my Intel 82852 / 855GM/GE graphics?
[05:46] <paradizelost> brb
[05:46] <stendhal> tristanmike,  do you know others games ?
[05:47] <Drak|Away> my mom's laptop says that the CD has something on it, but when I tried to browse it, there was nothing in the explorer window.
[05:47] <tonyyarusso> Okay, I think I just did something dumb, and need help recovering.  (I'm on my roommate's computer at the moment.)
[05:47] <Protocol1> proper drivers installed that is
[05:47] <pfhortron> I want pcsx in ppc ubuntu it should be in the package manager
[05:47] <gnomefreak> tristanmike: they have

[05:47] <lamp_> Can i work witch ubuntu dapper right now, i run debian unstable at the moment so i'm used to some things :p
[05:47] <pfhortron> ubuntu runs better than Macosx
[05:47] <tristanmike> stendhal, browse till your hearts content
[05:47] <matrix> Can any one tell me how to connect to VPN
[05:48] <gnomefreak> lamp_: debian unstable is differetn that pre beta
[05:48] <gnomefreak> s/that/than
[05:48] <stendhal> tristanmike,  stratagus is not fullscreen
[05:48] <lamp_> gnomefreak: but does it work?  without many error or something
[05:49] <tonyyarusso> I turned off my backlight by mimicking the line I found in the suspend script, I think it was 'sudo vbetool dpms off'.  So then, to turn it back on, I tried to reverse it by hitting the up arrow, backspace three times, then on (effectively 'sudo vbetool dpms on'), then my password.  Now the screen is cycling through colors and I can't do anything.  Please help!
[05:49] <tristanmike> stendhal, hmm, never played it, so I'm not sure of the settings
[05:49] <fromvega> Hello
[05:49] <tristanmike> stendhal, i just installed though.... :)
[05:49] <gnomefreak> lamp_: it runs here but there are a few things that need to be done and the fact that what works today maynot work later or tomorrow
[05:49] <paradizelost> back
[05:50] <gnomefreak> lamp_: feel free to use it but you have been warned it may break
[05:50] <lamp_> gnomefreak: okey thanks i will run it as thirth os :p
[05:50] <Drac|Crate> paradizelost, yes, the audio is choppy. In Sound Juicer, it goes silent for around ten seconds at random.
[05:50] <tristanmike> stendhal, try running the stratagus command with "--help" to see if you can make full screen, you may need to compile it, I don't know for sure
[05:51] <Drac|Crate> paradizelost, basically, it plays little bits of it at a time, as though it can't read the CD consistantly.
[05:51] <fromvega> I want to setup a webserver with Ubuntu, could you indicate some site about it? What do I need to setup, how to configure new websites, how do configure DNS information and how to secure against network attacks. Thank you!
[05:51] <nickrud> lamp_, it's feels pretty close to unstable at one of unstable's weaker times
[05:51] <stendhal> tristanmike,  ok
[05:51] <paradizelost> is the disc scratched?
[05:51] <paradizelost> try it in xmms
[05:52] <lamp_> nickrud: :p
[05:52] <tristanmike> Drakonik, there are strange happenings over there...
[05:52] <Drakonik> Yeah, I agree.
[05:52] <gnomefreak> brb while 5th .deb is downloading :) ill let you knwo how it works out nickrud
[05:53] <Drac|Crate> lamp_, I run Ubuntu Dapper on several systems. Flight 4 runs nicely. It's the final package inclusion, so you can just keep upgrading things until you one day have the final builds for the official release. I haven't had any problems with the latest stuff, so I recommend you give it a try.
[05:53] <pfhortron> I can't find the mesa dev libraries in the package manager?
[05:53] <tristanmike> Drakonik, how large does your mom's lappy say it is
[05:53] <Drakonik> Although knowing me, I'm probably missing some simple yet minute detail.
[05:53] <Drakonik> 270 meg.
[05:53] <Drac|Crate> paradizelost, the XMMS CD plugin won't work for me... it plays silently.
[05:53] <realPIMP> hello
[05:53] <realPIMP> :D
[05:53] <realPIMP> is here someone who likes Fantasy games?????
[05:53] <lafferpt> where is the apache configuration file location?
[05:53] <nickrud> gnomefreak, I gotta go, se you later
[05:53] <psusi> lafferpt: /etc/apache?
[05:54] <pfhortron> is there any way to get opengl in ubuntu Yabause ask's for it
[05:54] <Drac|Crate> paradizelost, that is, of course, when I try to play a CDA file from the disc. I don't know any other way to use the plugin.
[05:54] <lafferpt> psusi,  conf.d
[05:54] <lafferpt> ?
[05:54] <julian9932383> i know this might be a noob question but how do you become the root user in ubuntu
[05:54] <psusi> lafferpt: huh?
[05:54] <paradizelost> make sure you are using ther right sound output in xmms
[05:54] <paradizelost> probably need to change it to alsa
[05:54] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell julian9932383 about root
[05:54] <lafferpt> psusi, is it called conf.d?
[05:54] <gsnedders> is there any proper way to install Ubuntu on PPC in 64-bit mode?
[05:55] <pfhortron> I get no sound in VBA
[05:55] <Drac|Crate> paradizelost, can you help me get my XMMS CD plugin working?
[05:55] <psusi> lafferpt: I'm using apache2 and it's master config file is in /etc/apache2/apache2.conf, and several sub config files are in the /etc/apache2/conf.d directory
[05:55] <pfhortron> I think vba runs better in linux than Mac OS X
[05:55] <lafferpt> psusi, ha ok
[05:55] <Drac|Crate> paradizelost, sorry, didn't see your text. Please use my name so I can see the highlight.
[05:55] <lafferpt> tks
[05:55] <stendhal> tristanmike,  do you know bos ?
[05:56] <Drac|Crate> paradizelost, no, it's ALSA. I'm sure. Also, mp3s and such play fine. This is only CD-Related.
[05:56] <paradizelost> drac|crate:  have you tried using CD Player under the sound and video menu?
[05:56] <pfhortron> my logitech mouse some times stops in ubuntu from time to time
[05:56] <erg0t_> hi
[05:57] <Drac|Crate> paradizelost, No, lemme give that a shot.
[05:57] <erg0t_> dont know if this is the proper channel but... im new to the gimp, and as incredible as it may sound, i dont see any "save" button
[05:57] <erg0t_> :/
[05:57] <erg0t_> how do i save my images?
[05:57] <Drakonik> Ctrl-s?
[05:57] <pfhortron> does anyone know what program can create iso from cd's
[05:57] <Antiquitus> erg0t_:  right click on the image ;)
[05:58] <paradizelost> pfhortron:  dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/path/to/name.iso
[05:58] <erg0t_> well i'll be damned
[05:58] <erg0t_> thanks Antiquitus
[05:58] <Drac|Crate> paradizelost, it seems to be missing from the menu. It's probably installed regardless, but didn't show up due to lack of sound hardware initially. What's the command?
[05:58] <tonyyarusso> Okay, I think I just did something dumb, and need help recovering.  (I'm on my roommate's computer at the moment.)
[05:58] <tonyyarusso> I turned off my backlight by mimicking the line I found in the suspend script, I think it was 'sudo vbetool dpms off'.  So then, to turn it back on, I tried to reverse it by hitting the up arrow, backspace three times, then on (effectively 'sudo vbetool dpms on'), then my password.  Now the screen is cycling through colors and I can't do anything.  Please help!
[05:58] <paradizelost> drac|crate: i'll probably be shot for this, but you could possibly try using .... automatix
[05:59] <Antiquitus> erg0t_: the gimp can be a little cryptic at times, but once you get to know it, its an awesome tool :)
[05:59] <tristanmike> stendhal, sorry afk, i've heard of it
[05:59] <pfhortron> I know that command , sometimes I get read errors
[05:59] <kigh_> hi
[05:59] <pfhortron> mouse stoped again
[05:59] <Drac|Crate> paradizelost, I'm concerned and intrigued. What is automatix?
[05:59] <erg0t_> Antiquitus, so it seems
[05:59] <tristanmike> Drakonik, the cd shouldn't be that small
[05:59] <erg0t_> Antiquitus, thanks for the help :)
[05:59] <tristanmike> !automatix
[05:59] <ubotu> [automatix]  unsafe, it overwrites configuration files, and does things like "echo -e 'ynYn'" that are considered risky. Please do not use it. There are alternative applications, but it's often best to read the documentation.
[05:59] <kigh_> someone know how to disable execshield in dapper? is this bound to the kernel, so do i have to replace it?
[05:59] <stendhal> tristanmike,  i didn't find where it is on my computer
[06:00] <stendhal> in terminal i type bos
[06:00] <tristanmike> Drakonik, it may just be that the software is too old to handle such a new iso, I'm not absolutely sure, but that file size is incorrect
[06:00] <Drac|Crate> paradizelost, thankfully, that's not installed. I don't think I'll do that. What else would you suggest? I think the both-on-one-drive thing might be the actual cause, here...
[06:00] <Drakonik> Well, I'll look for some open-source burning utility on Sourceforge and try it.
[06:01] <Antiquitus> erg0t_: sure. :)
[06:01] <Drakonik> If I manage to find another CD to burn.
[06:01] <paradizelost> drac|crate, i'd try using separate controllers then
[06:01] <tristanmike> stendhal, it's stratagus releated, a new mission
[06:01] <pfhortron> xcdroast can create ISOs
[06:01] <Drac|Crate> paradizelost, I'm afraid I'll need to wait until I get my IDE controller card, then.  I only have two IDE slots, and they're both filled! Damn... I need to find a way around this controller problem.
[06:02] <ryanakca> is 5gb big enough for swap?
[06:02] <Ng> easily
[06:02] <tristanmike> stendhal, no, not in any great ammount
[06:02] <paradizelost> drac|crate how many hard drives do you ahve in the system?
[06:02] <tristanmike> stendhal, "bos" is a new map/level for Stratagus
[06:02] <dyrne> ryanakca: way more than you need prob
[06:02] <Ng> ryanakca: 2*ram is a useful guideline for how much swap to allow, unless you have a tiny or huge amount of ram
[06:03] <ryanakca> aye... I have 384mb ram
[06:03] <wickers> ryanakca, 512 megs of swap sould do
[06:03] <ryanakca> aye
[06:03] <ryanakca> ty
[06:03] <slew> hi. im running nautilus and trying to change the properties of an .mpg. when i right click the icon and go to Properties, nautilus crashes. is there any way to fix that?
[06:03] <stendhal> tristanmike,
[06:03] <stendhal> ok
[06:03] <Drac|Crate> paradizelost, hopefully you just noticed my message of dismay. Regardless of that, it is unlikely that this computer's BIOS would properly support booting from the card...
[06:03] <sinaduel> hello, on k3b when I want to erase a DVD RW do I use quick format? I remember that quick format only erases the TOC or something like that
[06:04] <gnomefreak> brb gonna try this
[06:04] <pfhortron> I have a GB of ram
[06:04] <Drac|Crate> paradizelost, What is DMA? Should I try disabling it for the harddrive?
[06:04] <wickers> Drac[Server] , no.. it's Direct memory access... and you want it on.
[06:04] <pfhortron> Direct memory access DMA
[06:04] <Drac|Crate> wickers, alright.
[06:05] <paradizelost> drac|crate:  no, you want dma on, makes things go much faster.   i.e. while watching a dvd-movie it would be jerky without it on
[06:05] <pfhortron> emulator refer it alot
[06:05] <pfhortron> emulators
[06:05] <Drac|Crate> wickers, what would be the consequences of disabling it for the harddrive, though?
[06:05] <dyrne> slew: i hate nautilus.. prefer xubuntu's simple file manager or konq to that
[06:05] <wickers> slower drive speeds
[06:05] <Drak|Hunting> I can burn data to a DVD+R, right?
[06:05] <Drac|Crate> Hmm..
[06:05] <xerox_> Hello.
[06:05] <paradizelost> drac|crate: your hard drive would run like crap
[06:05] <wickers> Drac|Crate, basically you'd put extra load on your CPU to do the same tasks... which makes things slower.
[06:05] <Drac|Crate> paradizelost: understood.
[06:05] <tonyyarusso> Why did I have to break something at this time of day?  If it was eight hours from now there would be someone that knew what my stupidity did...
[06:05] <tristanmike> Drak|Hunting, only if your burner supports it
[06:05] <Drak|Hunting> Hm.
[06:06] <Drak|Hunting> You mean the hardware or the software?
[06:06] <tristanmike> Drak|Hunting, um, usually just the hardware
[06:07] <Drac|Crate> paradizelost: you seem to neglect tab completion. Is this voluntary, or have you just forgotten about it? (friendly suggestion)
[06:07] <Drak|Hunting> Crap.
[06:07] <fromvega> I want to setup a webserver with Ubuntu, could you indicate some site about it? What do I need to setup, how to configure new websites, how do configure DNS information and how to secure against network attacks. Thank you!
[06:07] <vars> how do i import firefox settings
[06:07] <tristanmike> Drak|Hunting, it should say on the front of your dvd burner something like DVD +/-
[06:07] <paradizelost> ahh.  didn't know about it...
[06:07] <paradizelost> :D
[06:07] <paradizelost> thanks
[06:07] <sinaduel> How do I burn AVI's onto DVD's so the work on DVD players?
[06:08] <Drak|Hunting> Crapola.
[06:08] <Drak|Hunting> It only says CD-writer
[06:08] <vars> wait how do i get the bookmarks?
[06:08] <tristanmike> Drak|Hunting, and you're trying to burn a dvd?
[06:08] <foampeace> Sub-process bzip2 received a segmentation fault.
[06:08] <Drak|Hunting> It's the only blank disk I could find.
[06:08] <Drac|Crate> vars: Rename the new file folder to something else in .mozilla/firefox/profiles, then move your old config file into the directory and rename it to the original new profile's name. Alternatively, edit the config file in the same directory to point to your old config.
[06:09] <foampeace>  Possible causes are (most likely first):
[06:09] <Inf3ctedFx> Hello ppl
[06:09] <foampeace>    (1) The compressed data is corrupted, and bzip2's usual checks
[06:09] <foampeace>        failed to detect this.  Try bzip2 -tvv my_file.bz2.
[06:09] <LuisBG> any ubuntu in powerbook user?
[06:09] <tristanmike> Drak|Hunting, lol, well that's your problem right there. First, you can't read/write dvd's in any "cdrom/writer", second, unless you downloaded a dvd iso, you have to burn the iso to a cd
[06:09] <foampeace> im like now what
[06:09] <Drac|Crate> vars: Sorry, I mean move your old config FOLDER into .mozilla/firefox.
[06:09] <Drak|Hunting> Grrr...
[06:10] <Drac|Crate> vars: Gah! I mean .mozilla/firefox/profiles! Move it to there. Yes.
[06:10] <labanux> does any one can give me suggestion what kind of IDE that i can user to build GUI app on Ubuntu?
[06:10] <Drak|Hunting> GRAH!
[06:10] <Drak|Hunting> Why does the universe conspire against me?
[06:10] <tristanmike> Drak|Hunting, yeah, that's pretty frustrating
[06:10] <Drak|Hunting> Ah well.
[06:10] <Drak|Hunting> I'll look for some CDs.
[06:10] <Drac|Crate> vars: Sorry about the confusion. I hope you got the right message. >_>
[06:10] <labanux> does any one can give me suggestion what kind of IDE that i can user to build GUI app on Ubuntu?
[06:10] <LuisBG> I apt-get installed linux-image headers and modules and after I rebooted it crashes at load, and seams like the old kernel doesn't work anymore too :(
[06:11] <foampeace> Drac|Crate: because you believe it to be true. negative anticipation. the opposite of faith
[06:11] <LuisBG> labanux, there is an ide to make gtk guis
[06:11] <Drac|Crate> LuisBG: That's very odd. Have you tried booting in "recovery mode" via the list when pressing Esc when GRUB first starts?
[06:11] <labanux> LuisBG, gtk guis?? what is that?
[06:11] <LuisBG> Drac[Server] , not using grub but yaboot, it's in a mac
[06:12] <Drac|Crate> foampeace: Pay closer attention to your tab completion. :P
[06:12] <LuisBG> labanux, know gtk?
[06:12] <djk_> anyone familiar with latex?
[06:12] <labanux> LuisBG, Glade?? is this what you mean?
[06:12] <kigh_> what is (not does) this "execshield" stuff in dapper drake? is it compiled into the kernel? a module? userspace stuff? what is it? or: (this is what i want) how do i disable it?
[06:12] <LuisBG> labanux, exactly
[06:12] <paradizelost> well, i got my vnc issue resolved...
[06:12] <foampeace> Drac|Crate: ya heheeh
[06:12] <foampeace> im an ass
[06:12] <Inf3ctedFx> I have a problem trying to upgrade my sources.list, the message said.. : W: Coulnd't stat sorce package list http://package.freecontrb.org breezy/free Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/ packages.freecontrb.org_ubuntu_plf_dists_breezy_free_binary-i386_Packages) - stat (2 no such file or directory)  what should I do?
[06:12] <paradizelost> needed to install just "vncserver" instead of vnc4server or tightvncserver
[06:12] <LuisBG> how stable is drapper's flight 4 and what does drapper drake mean?
[06:12] <pinkisntwell> who thinks ubuntu's web fonts look ugly?
[06:13] <tristanmike> Inf3ctedFx, comment that line out
[06:13] <paradizelost> Inf3ctedFx: please use pastebin
[06:13] <Inf3ctedFx> ok. sorry for the flood
[06:13] <kigh_> LuisBG: for me its very stable .. had no issue until now
[06:13] <Drac|Crate> paradizelost: congrats. Say, if the BIOS doesn't see the secondary controller port because of BIOS retardedness, does that mean that Linux won't, or will Linux be able to take over control of the board and properly utilize all hardware without BIOS interference?
[06:13] <eXistenZ> why not all the installed packages appear in the menu?
[06:13] <LuisBG> kigh_, downloading it because I have to reinstall anyway
[06:13] <tristanmike> Inf3ctedFx, can you say "non-offical repo"
[06:14] <cvtboudreaux> I have a question, would it be possible to shrink my ntfs partition with XP on it (so i can put linux on my laptop) and whats the best tool for this?
[06:14] <kigh_> paradizelost: pastebin for one line? :D
[06:14] <labanux> i want to make a gui app, that can easily install on another linux os..
[06:14] <Inf3ctedFx> what u mean with that tristanmike
[06:14] <LuisBG> does really apt-get install nvidia-glx install the nvidia driver with 3d acceleration? come from ati, sounds too easy ;)
[06:14] <kigh_> LuisBG: then try drake
[06:14] <labanux> but i still can't find any good s/w
[06:14] <tristanmike> Inf3ctedFx, I mean it can give you a whole slew of trouble
[06:14] <kigh_> LuisBG: yes it did. :D
[06:14] <LuisBG> cvtboudreaux, partition magic but it's danger gander
[06:15] <LuisBG> kigh_, can you promise?
[06:15] <Inf3ctedFx> but why I getting that message? tristanmike ?
[06:15] <GnaLeo> sorry about that .. damn unstable wireless
[06:15] <pinkisntwell> cvtboudreaux: I did that using ntfsresize and fdisk, booting from the livecd
[06:15] <labanux> using glade means using GTk, and gtk is too difficult for me
[06:15] <paradizelost> Drac|Crate: sometimes, it can override the bios
[06:15] <paradizelost> kigh_: i can get a one-liner to fill the screen...
[06:15] <tristanmike> Inf3ctedFx, their server may be down, may have changed, the file may be removed
[06:15] <kigh_> LuisBG: hm. i do not promise anything, but on this machine, yesterday, apt-get install nvidia-glx && /etc/init.d/gdm restart was anything i had to do
[06:15] <paradizelost> :D
[06:15] <willmc> hi guys, anyone know how to have synaptic automatically expand the 'Terminal' view when applying updates?
[06:15] <prower> Hello everyone :> I'm a long-time user of Ubuntu, but I'm a bit concerned about the addition of click-n-run coming in...will that mean that in the future certain packages will only be available for a fee?
[06:16] <LuisBG> anybody knows if the airport driver comes native in drapper? it is meant to be one of the upgrades from breezy
[06:16] <cvtboudreaux> i was looking at partition magic, laptop came with everything preinstalled (as usual) and id hate to have to reinstall everything
[06:16] <kigh_> paradizelost: maybe, but not using the IRC protocol.
[06:16] <tristanmike> Inf3ctedFx, you should check out "easyubuntu", it uses the plf repos, but is much safer
[06:16] <LuisBG> kigh_, hope it's that easy with me
[06:16] <gnomefreak> prower: click and run has nothing to do with the gpl
[06:16] <kigh_> :D
[06:16] <gnomefreak> or the cost
[06:16] <LuisBG> anybody uses ubuntu in powerbook/ibook to ask about some performance questions?
[06:16] <davidX-> whats a decent gui icq client thats in ubuntu's packagel ist/
[06:16] <prower> gnomefreak: Ahh, I see
[06:16] <Inf3ctedFx> I have easyubuntu..
[06:16] <davidX-> err list :D
[06:16] <LuisBG> is there a cputemp app for ppc?
[06:17] <tristanmike> Inf3ctedFx, oh, is that what's causing the error?
[06:17] <gnomefreak> davidX-: xchat for a gui irc app
[06:17] <tonyyarusso> prower: No.  It's not CNR like the other you're thinking of; the functionality is achieved through a tool called gdebi that's just a front-end type thing to dpkg and dependencies.
[06:17] <Inf3ctedFx> I already run it.. but now.. should I check easyubuntu often tristanmike ?
[06:17] <willmc> davidX- GAIM
[06:17] <davidX-> licq seems to fail on dependancies
[06:17] <tristanmike> Inf3ctedFx, sure, you can even see what's going on in #easyubuntu
[06:17] <davidX-> willmc: ahh didn't know gaim supported icq now i haven't used linux as a desktop in years :D
[06:17] <Inf3ctedFx> noo, the error is causing becuase I was trying to add some programs and the sinaptic pops up showingme there is some availabel updates..
[06:17] <zach> Hey all, I got a quesiton for ya... I have been messing with stuff and I can't figure out how to disable tap clicking on my Dell Inspiron 6000's Touchpad
[06:17] <Drac|Crate> cvtboudreaux: I think gparted can do this. gparted is available on the LiveCD and is very good at resizing partitions. Just be sure to defrag your zany NTFS partition so that the files aren't scattered everywhere, making the parititon appear a lot fuller than it is.
[06:17] <gnomefreak> davidX-: yes it has a plug in for it iirc
[06:17] <zach> Does anyone know of a way?
[06:18] <tristanmike> Inf3ctedFx, if you use easyubuntu, then I'd say you would no longer really need the plf line in your source.list
[06:18] <prower> tonyyarusso: Ahh, I see...so it won't interfere with synaptic/apt-get
[06:18] <Inf3ctedFx> I was trying to make that updates and I get that message
[06:18] <willmc> davidX- it sure does :) !!
[06:18] <tonyyarusso> prower: Nope.
[06:18] <Drak|Hunting> Gah. I give up. I'll try it again tomorrow, once my brain has recovered.
[06:18] <tristanmike> Inf3ctedFx, that's why having unoffical repos can break systems
[06:18] <Inf3ctedFx> ohh oks tristanmike  one thing i'm pretty new with easy ubuntu.. how can I use it???
[06:18] <tristanmike> Inf3ctedFx, if you don't mind me asking, what's the program you want
[06:18] <Drac|Crate> paradizelost: For this "BIOS Override" do I need any kind of special boot commands or some such?  Has anyone been able to get it disabled?
[06:19] <gnomefreak> brb
[06:19] <paradizelost> possibly, but w/o knowing the system intimately, i don't think i could really help you do it.
[06:19] <foampeace> did someone abuse exploits?
[06:19] <willmc> so does anyone know how to have synaptic automatically expand the 'Terminal' view when applying updates?
[06:19] <paradizelost> Drac|Crate: possibly, but w/o knowing the system intimately, i don't think i could really help you do it.
[06:19] <Inf3ctedFx> I went to APlications/Add Aplications.. and I'm trying to get programs like gnome backer. NU, Best, etc etc etc  tristanmike
[06:20] <huuhuhu> Alguem do BRASIL AI????
[06:20] <Drac|Crate> paradizelost: What sort of stuff do you need to know about it? I'll be happy to tell any needed details. :)
[06:20] <Inf3ctedFx> huuhuhu: n parla portugues...
[06:20] <tristanmike> Inf3ctedFx, ok, comment out that line and sudo apt-get update
[06:20] <LuisBG> is there a cputemp app for ppc?
[06:20] <Drac|Crate> paradizelost: That is, I'll be happy to tell as much as I actually know about it. I don't know what chipset it uses for IDE and such...
[06:20] <Inf3ctedFx> oks tristanmike  thx
[06:20] <tristanmike> Inf3ctedFx, you don't have any other unoffical repos in there do you?
[06:20] <kenzoix> hi all.....help me, I can't install libc6-dev package
[06:20] <uri> I just got a quick question. How do I reconfigure the x server from the command line? (I swapped my HD into an older laptop. And I would like to choose the "framebuffering" option, if my memory serves me correctly, in order to get the gdm to work)
[06:20] <Inf3ctedFx> I have no clue.. how can I find out?? tristanmike ?
[06:21] <tristanmike> Inf3ctedFx, like debian ones
[06:21] <Inf3ctedFx> checking on my sources.list?
[06:21] <tonyyarusso> !br
[06:21] <ubotu> Por favor use #ubuntu-br (/j #ubuntu-br) para ajuda em portugues. Obrigada.
[06:21] <tristanmike> Inf3ctedFx, you can paste your sources.list on pastebin and I'll have a look
[06:21] <kenzoix> It says that package linux-kernel is not installed
[06:21] <sinaduel> Helo, I am inquiring about how to burn AVI's so they are readable on DVD players
[06:21] <Inf3ctedFx> ok let me show u give me the address to paste
[06:21] <paradizelost> Drac|Crate: I'd almost have to be in front of it...
[06:22] <kenzoix> but I've installed the linux-kernel-headers package, and it's seems it was installed correctly
[06:22] <tristanmike> !tell Inf3ctedFx about pastebin
[06:22] <tristanmike> Inf3ctedFx, check your pm
[06:22] <Drac|Crate> paradizelost: Ah... Well... It might interest you to know that I built it into a milk crate. XP
[06:22] <Celestianpower> Can someone help me with Synaptic please?
[06:22] <paradizelost> uri: if iirc, framebuffer is console.  but you can use xorgconfig to change it
[06:22] <chmod775> yes sure
[06:22] <tristanmike> !helpme
[06:22] <ubotu> If you don't actually ask a question, we can not actually help you.
[06:22] <paradizelost> uri: the X config file that is
[06:23] <eXistenZ> any good multimedia repos. for downloading w32codecs and such?
[06:23] <chmod775> yup !helpme
[06:23] <chmod775> lol
[06:23] <Inf3ctedFx> tristanmike:  here u go..  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9964
[06:23] <chmod775> !w32codec
[06:23] <ubotu> well, w32codecs is a compilation of binary win32 A/V codecs for many popular proprietary formats not currently supported by free implementations under linux. See http://tinyurl.com/e4a5s to install
[06:23] <sinaduel> Hello, I am inquiring about how to burn AVI's so they are readable on DVD players
[06:23] <kenzoix> hey, no one can help me?
[06:23] <chmod775> tell eXistenZ about w32codecs
[06:24] <paradizelost> sinaduel: you would need to transcode them to an mpeg format and use a dvd authoring program
[06:24] <kenzoix> !msg alsa-source
[06:24] <ubotu> kenzoix: NO SPEAKE ENLISH! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[06:24] <Drac|Crate> paradizelost: It's an old Compaq, some kind of weird three-plug AT machine. The BIOS has limited options. There is a single 16x CD-ROM drive and a 20GB Maxtor harddrive. There is around 196MB RAM, a mixture of PC66 and PC100. Both IDE drives are on a single cable in the primary controller port. The CD-Rom is the slave drive.
[06:24] <tristanmike> Inf3ctedFx, yeah, comment out the wine/opera lines, leave soulmachine commented
[06:24] <sinaduel> paradizelost: Such as qdvdauthor?
[06:24] <Inf3ctedFx> let me c
[06:25] <paradizelost> sinaduel: don't know for sure, i don't do that on a linux box.
[06:25] <uri> paradizelost: so xorgconfig will do the trick from the command line? (I have no gdm running on my laptop.)
[06:25] <paradizelost> sinaduel: i just know that avi's can't be directly burned and be playable
[06:25] <tristanmike> Inf3ctedFx, the thing about "non-offical repos" is, they're ok if you trust them but only have them active when you are getting software that is strickly from those, then when you get the stuff, comment them out again, don't leave them active and you should be good to go
[06:25] <Inf3ctedFx> ok done
[06:25] <paradizelost> uri: xorgconfig will re-setup the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file
[06:26] <Inf3ctedFx> oohhh ok tristanmike  can u recomend me a good source.list??
[06:26] <paradizelost> Drac|Crate: i think it's just time to upgrade man... ;)
[06:26] <zach> Hmmm Has anyone here dealt with tapping on a Synaptic Touchpad from a Dell Inspiron 6000?
[06:26] <Inf3ctedFx> or do u know where can I go an get more?
[06:26] <tristanmike> Inf3ctedFx, what you have is ok, stick with that and you'll be fine
[06:26] <GenfooCGI> uggg CGI:IRC is annoying -_-
[06:26] <eXistenZ> what's the address of multiverse repos. ?
[06:26] <gnomefreak> ubotu tell eXistenZ about multiverse
[06:26] <tristanmike> Inf3ctedFx, just make sure you leave all unoffical repos commented untill you need them
[06:26] <tristanmike> Inf3ctedFx, brb
[06:26] <Inf3ctedFx> ok tristanmike  thx.. now last question how can I operate easyubuntu?
[06:27] <Drac|Crate> paradizelost: This isn't my main system. Trust me. I don't have money for another board, and this one fits the crate PERFECTLY. It's just a pet project, really. My question is simple: Will Ubuntu be able to use the CD-Rom drive if the BIOS doesn't see it?
[06:27] <uri> paradizelost: I have no program installed called xorgconfig
[06:27] <unclewezter> bios must see the device
[06:27] <Drac|Crate> unclewezter: Why is that?
[06:27] <unclewezter> put the cd on its own cable/port
[06:28] <Drac|Crate> unclewezter: Secondary IDE control in the BIOS is broken.
[06:28] <tristanmike> Inf3ctedFx, type "/join #easyubuntu" for all you questions
[06:28] <defrysk> !upgrade
[06:28] <ubotu> Upgrading to Ubuntu 5.10 breezy -> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyUpgrade.  Upgrading to dapper (remember it may break). Please test the dist-upgrader -> https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-January/014700.html.
[06:28] <unclewezter> cd on same as hd will slow the whole mess down considerably
[06:28] <paradizelost> uri: do you have xorg installed?
[06:28] <p0mppu> hi again
[06:28] <paradizelost> uri: or xfree86
[06:28] <Inf3ctedFx> ok thx again tristanmike
[06:28] <paradizelost> Drac|Crate: some can, some cant
[06:28] <Drac|Crate> unclewezter: I noticed, but it's my only option right now. You'd know that if you paid attention.
[06:28] <chmod775> !multiverse
[06:28] <ubotu> To enable Universe and Multiverse see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto - Official sources.lists here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047 (Breezy) or http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6666 (Dapper) see also !easysource
[06:29] <p0mppu> has anybody got experience on formatting devices or creating filesystems on them? I have an usb-memory key that claims it's 8MB but it's really 256MB and I'd really like to do something about it..
