[03:25] <ere> How is possible that when I did an version upgrade my wireless got not usable, not it doesn't work, why??????
[03:25] <dabbill> bazhang, that just says how to install it, i have it installed and open, it shrinks the movie but never makes it in to ISO so i can burn it.
[03:25] <alexbOrsova> SeaPhor: what do you suggest?
[03:25] <bazhang> Daisuke_Laptop, that fix it?
[03:25] <Hawkeye-X> http://www.pastebin.org/36493 - could someone take a look and tell me why my dvd player is not working please?
[03:25] <Daisuke_Ido> bazhang: restarted *everything* and it's the same
[03:25] <Daisuke_Ido> no static for me, i guess.
[03:25] <Pelo> ocha, what do you mean anyting else ? ,  I have wine installed,  utorrent runs on it ,  I have utorrent set to grab anytorrent I download to the desktop and I have firefox setup to save .torrent to the desktop ,  that's pretty much it
[03:25] <wols>  alexbOrsova I just told you
[03:25] <bazhang> Daisuke_Ido, for how long, best to give it a minute or two
[03:25] <alexbOrsova> wols: what is initrd?
[03:25] <Fezzler> When I start Minicom, it flash on for a split second and closes?
[03:26] <Pelo> alexbOrsova, explain the whole issue to SeaPhor  not just the end problems ,  he might know the sources of the prob
[03:26] <wols> !blacklist | alexbOrsova
[03:26] <Daisuke_Ido> well, when did i ping out?
[03:26] <SeaPhor> alexbOrsova, what chipset/ model mfg?
[03:26] <alexbOrsova> wols: ive already done that
[03:26] <wols> alexbOrsova: since you have no clue what an initrd is: false
[03:26] <ere> my wireless doesn't work now, after an upgrade
[03:26] <bazhang> dabbill, not sure what to tell you; works well here you might want to look at the many forums links/threads
[03:26] <ere> what can I do??
[03:26] <Hawkeye-X> [20:17] <-- Daisuke_Ido has left this server ("Leaving").
[03:26] <Pelo> ere, redo the setup for it
[03:26] <wols> ere: load the proper driver and give us enough info so we can help you
[03:27] <alexbOrsova> SeaPhor: broadcom wireless card. However, I know I have the right driver. How do I find the chipset?
[03:27] <SeaPhor> alexbOrsova, i type slow so be patient
[03:27] <ocha> pelo, peerguardin or any other kind of ip blocker
[03:27] <ere> wols:  how can I know the wireless name?
[03:27] <Daisuke_Ido> so two minutes to reboot, that's seven minutes.

[03:27] <ere> wols:  Bus 002 Device 002: ID 07b8:6001 D-Link Corp.
[03:27] <Pelo> ocha, I know utorrent has  a built in ip blocker that you can use,  not realy built in , a file you edit to add te ips in , but I dont, use it ,  adn I donT' use peergrardians ansd such

[03:30] <tmapj> nakedgoat: from the add/remove menu
[03:31] <SeaPhor> if that shows you have device installed and "working" then we have a separate issue
[03:31] <Daisuke_Ido> yeah, this is ridiculous
[03:31] <newbie10> hi
[03:31] <SeaPhor> alexbOrsova, if that shows you have device installed and "working" then we have a separate issue
[03:31] <newbie10> i installed ubuntu using install inside windows and when i boot up my pc - i get to 2 options - windows and ubuntu - and choose ubuntu - all does is load up grub
[03:31] <nakedgoat> tmapj: I did mine via apt-get, works fine.
[03:31] <Daisuke_Ido> this is ridiculousness on an epic scale...
[03:31] <newbie10> i don't know how to boot into my installed ubuntu
[03:32] <tmapj> nakedgoat could you please tell me the command?
[03:32] <nakedgoat> there are a few
[03:32] <alexbOrsova> SeaPhor: lspci is in my last post and the result from the other command can be found here http://paste.ubuntu.com/12618/. Note: this is after I've setup ndiswrapper because if I restart I lose everything.
[03:32] <newbie10> if anyone can help me - that would be great
[03:32] <D0ugh_B0ii> Can anyone here help me with my broadcom wireless drivers pls?

[03:33] <alexbOrsova> SeaPhor: ubuntu 8.04 amd64
[03:33] <sneedley> I have a nvidia gforce6600 le and I would like to use the dual monitor mode. I went in and tried to set it up but all I managed to do was change which display was working

[03:35] <reya276> wols: my issue is that for some reason when I login my desktop won't show except for the wallpaper and that is it
[03:35] <nakedgoat> in wols defense, he did lie ;)
[03:35] <Daisuke_Ido> couldn't reach anything using a static ip, works fine with a dynamic ip
[03:35] <kr1t> hello all
[03:35] <wols> bazhang: the command DID print something as I said after all and which he said it wouldn't
[03:35] <Daisuke_Ido> yes yes

[03:37] <topher> anyone here really familiar with ubuntu 8.04 and installation on a hp notebook?
[03:37] <wols> mcp: dpkg -l |grep ^rc
[03:37] <reya276> wols: sudo apt-get remove purge compiz
[03:37] <wols> topher: ask your real question
[03:37] <wols> reya276: no "remove" there
[03:38] <wols> macd: dpkg -l |grep ^rc

[03:38] <reya276> wols: sudo apt-get purge compiz
[03:38] <sneedley> !dualhead
[03:38] <topher> lol... k. Just installed 8.04 and rebooted all drivers are restricted, no wifi, no proper resolution
[03:38] <macd> wols, I guess I can just awk the output into apt
[03:38] <SeaPhor> alexbOrsova, ok,,, 1 what encryption is your access, 2 did you follow a "how-to" on configuring this? (if so which)
[03:38] <Broadcom> i need to fix a swap partition
[03:38] <wols> macd: no
[03:38] <wols> topher: what wlan chip, what videocard?
[03:38] <Daisuke_Ido> wols: it's sudo apt-get remove --purge <package>
[03:39] <sneedley> !dualhead
[03:39] <mikebuntu> hello people
[03:39] <newbie10> i have a ubuntu question - I installed it via wubi and when system boots up - all i get is grub and nothing else - i don't know what commands to boot up the system - should wubi fix all of this
[03:39] <Broadcom> does anybody know how to fix a swap partition?
[03:39] <wols> Daisuke_Ido: there is more than one way to do it
[03:39] <Dr`Keovorkian> I have a recurring problem. The mouse AND keyboard both freeze while running Ubuntu. The clock and other programs continue what they're doing, as if nothing's going on, but mouse input is nixed, and I can't exit the X server.
[03:39] <macd> wols, then how else would you propose to get it into apt?
[03:39] <dimeotane> anyone know of a slideshow program that works ?
[03:39] <Broadcom> !hi | mikebuntu
[03:39] <J-a-k-e> is anyone able to tell me why grub always stops working on ubuntu 8.04?

[03:39] <sarah_bear> how can i know if my Nepenthes honeypot is working?
[03:39] <alexbOrsova> SeaPhor: my network isn't using encryption (its open. and no I didn't follow a walkthrough. I have done this before on previous installations and this is the first time it hasn't worked. if you want i can tell you exactly what commands i used from the start, though.
[03:39] <wols> macd: from this output: copy+paste
[03:39] <dimeotane> that can put music with photos and effects?
[03:39] <mikebuntu> what's the best irc client for gnome, thanks
[03:39] <newbie10> J-a-k-e: are u having same problems as me

[03:40] <Broadcom> alexbOrsova: oh, goody
[03:40] <J-a-k-e> newbie10: it's funny because I never had this problem with 7.10
[03:40] <macd> wols, bleh I'll use awk and just grab the package names themselves copy/pasting that much is silly when the shell has tools to use
[03:40] <Broadcom> alexbOrsova: put lspci in pastebin
[03:40] <wols> Daisuke_Ido: your DNS (router) is <IP_ADDRESS>?
[03:40] <newbie10> this is my first time with ubuntu
[03:40] <Daisuke_Ido> yes it is
[03:40] <wols> macd: sure, awk will work
[03:40] <Fezzler> Anyone use irssi?
[03:40] <sarah_bear> anyone here ever use Nepenthes honeypot before?
[03:40] <newbie10> and i googled the wubi wiki page - no help there
[03:40] <newbie10> on this issue
[03:41] <jsidell> I'm trying to print over a network with a WinXP print server.  Ubuntu doesn't see the printer instaled on the server.

[03:44] <newbie10> why is there an option to do it - when does not work?
[03:44] <alexbOrsova> Broadcom: 1) find out chipset/card 2) get driver for windows 3) cabextract it 4) remove default driver using rmmod 5) install windows driver with ndiswrapper 6) add ndiswrapper using modprobe
[03:44] <Shadow420> newbie10 but in terminal type sudo update-grub
[03:44] <newbie10> Shadow420: i am in grub
[03:44] <J-a-k-e> newbie10: have you tried here http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Hardy#How_to_restore_GRUB_to_a_partition_or_MBR_with_an_Ubuntu_Live_CD
[03:44] <SeaPhor> alexbOrsova, ok, so it worked before just doesnt since,,,?
[03:44] <newbie10> that is all i get
[03:45] <alexbOrsova> Broadcom: plus or minus a few steps, you should look up the specifics before trying those commands
[03:45] <newbie10> but my grub loads up
[03:45] <alexbOrsova> SeaPhor: Since I installed 8.04. It worked in 7.10.
[03:45] <topher> wols?
[03:46] <Shadow420> newbie10 get back into ubuntu and load up terminal and type sudo grub-update
[03:46] <Broadcom> alexbOrsova: i got mine to work, with somting else. just wondering for other people

[03:46] <newbie10> ubuntu won't load
[03:46] <newbie10> it never loaded
[03:46] <J-a-k-e> newbie10: you get further than i do if grub loads, I've tried installing to 3 hard drives 2 dont load and the other just says "missing partition" or somethings like that
[03:46] <Shadow420> newbie10 I mean update-grub
[03:46] <wols> topher: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg for your videocard to "nvidi" and use the madwifi drivers for your WLAN
[03:46] <SeaPhor> alexbOrsova, sorry, i had to help my kids,
[03:46] <clintchanc1> omg
[03:46] <clintchanc1> i dont belive this
[03:46] <newbie10> update-grub tells me unrecognized command
[03:46] <clintchanc1> i think my problem is that i get low signal with linux. So with that is there anyway to fix it with out moving the ap
[03:47] <SeaPhor> alexbOrsova, ok did you upgrade or fresh install?
[03:47] <alexbOrsova> SeaPhor: no need to be sorry, the kids come first
[03:47] <newbie10> but i have no access to linux terminal
[03:47] <wols> newbie10: /sbin/update-grub AND you need to use sudo
[03:47] <jo_e> hi. i have had a huge problem with upgrading from 7.10 to 8.10. i ran sudo do-release-upgrade and it went through ok, then asked for me to reboot. then it just hung on the rebooting screen with the orange progress bar going back and forth. i tried switching to a text terminal but i just saw the "loading" message. after a while it kicked me into a busybox shell, but i didn't know what to do...
[03:47] <jo_e> ...so i restarted. i haven't been able to get that shell again.
[03:47] <topher> k so a little more in english?
[03:47] <danbhfive> clintchanc1: maybe you need to take it out of roaming mode?
[03:47] <reya276> this sucks my desktop won't show and it is a fresh hardy install
[03:47] <newbie10> wols: i can't even get linux loaded: i am on the grub prompt
[03:47] <reya276> what gives
[03:47] <jo_e> i'm writing this on another computer, since I can't connect to my network with the livecd for some reason
[03:47] <clintchanc1> its not inroming mode i had to disable it to get it to connect
[03:47] <wols> jo_e: before busybox you got an error
[03:47] <Shadow420> newbie10 hmm this is beyond my knowledge
[03:47] <wols> !grub | new
[03:47] <wols> !grub | newbie10

[03:48] <wols> jo_e: so we can't help you
[03:48] <alexbOrsova> SeaPhor: fresh install.
[03:48] <clintchanc1> can i push more power to my usb stick?

[04:04] <Stepa1> How can I use my Ubuntu Desktop Edition as a server for a few files.  I do not want to switch to Ubuntu Server Edition.
[04:04] <brand0con> that was from trying sudo aptitude ubuntu-desktop

But i want it to play ram files off the internet (should be a common thing) and it still doesnt know how to take the .rm url out of the .ram file and play it.  is there a workaround for this?
[04:05] <Stepa1> wols: Basically if my computer is on, just navigate to my IP and then view the files
[04:05] <Pramod> What is the burning software used in Ubuntu?
[04:05] <wols> Stepa1: view with what protocol?
[04:05] <brand0con> Pramod: brasero for 8.04
[04:05] <errpast> Pramod, brasero is one
[04:05] <danbhfive> brand0con: if this is an upgrade, then maybe its time for a clean install
[04:05] <nakedgoat> Stepa1: freenas.org :)
[04:05] <mfacenet> so how do I increase my volume when the set volume is already at 100% (it's only about a quarter as loud as windows)

[04:06] <Stepa1> nakedgoat: i will take a look
[04:06] <reya276> sudobash: honestly what I need is to be able to set a static internal IP address to this PC, if I can do that I will install all the applications I need through terminal
[04:06] <wols> Stepa1: I want to know which of the many file transfer protocols you want to use?

[04:10] <clintchanc1> i did install it
[04:10] <sudobash> it might work

[04:12] <danbhfive> brand0con: well, I can't figure it out.  I figured it was a bad upgrade, I dunno what you should do.  You could try doing sudo apt-get clean, and sudo apt-get update, then sudo apt-get dist-upgrade.   See if that gets things going.  But, I'm out of ideas, sorry.

[04:15] <dmsuperman> sudobash: what do you mean?
[04:16] <nakedgoat> llin-ubuntu: did you do a fdisk -l and adjust grub accordingly?
[04:16] <brand0con> danbhfive: next question, how could i go about scripting a bash file to reinstall my programs
[04:16] <sudobash> have you looked in Restricted Drivers manager?
[04:16] <sudobash> and installed the driver that way?

[04:16] <sudobash> or how did you install it?
[04:16] <dmsuperman> sudobash: When I installed the driver that way it was the latest, at least 2 weeks ago, and it wouldn't work properly
[04:16] <ubuntu> nakedgoat: trying fdisk -l now....
[04:16] <dmsuperman> I downloaded the latest from nvidia.com, it's a .run file
[04:16] <flip2405> any one need some helpo

[04:17] <dmsuperman> sudobash: what am I looking for in it?
[04:17] <sudobash> and see where it says driver                 "nv"
[04:18] <sudobash> or "nvidia"
[04:18] <ubuntu> nakedgoat: it says can't open /dev/sda1
[04:18] <sudobash> you want to be "nvidia"
[04:18] <ubuntu> anyone else got any ideas since nakedgoat is going to get some food. :)
[04:18] <wil_> Hi, I use azureus to download torrents, but it seems like I'm only seeding files while they are being downloaded and not after they complete. Is there a way to fix that?
[04:18] <ubuntu> I can mount /dev/sda1 but can't fdisk -l /dev/sda1
[04:18] <dmsuperman> sudobash: it is nvidia
[04:18] <flip2405> wil_ i can help come to #flip
[04:18] <sudobash> and it has your hardware listed?
[04:19] <sudobash> and it works right now with the driver?
[04:19] <sudobash> if it works right now... then restart and make sure it is "nvidia" and when it reboots then check the driver again and see if it has changed to nv
[04:19] <dmsuperman> sudobash: not right now, because I just restarted (i'm in tty/irssi)
[04:19] <dmsuperman> sudobash: but if I reinstall the driver it will work
[04:20] <sudobash> ok so you restarted and it is nvidia
[04:20] <dmsuperman> sudobash: yes
[04:20] <dmsuperman> sudobash: so far I haven't reinstalled it or modified xorg.conf yet
[04:20] <dmsuperman> sudobash: at least this boot
[04:20] <ubuntu> ok guys anyone able to help with grub stuff?

[04:21] <dmsuperman> sudobash: and yes, it lists my hardware name in that device section
[04:21] <dmsuperman> ubuntu: supergrub
[04:21] <ubuntu> sudobash: supergrub disk??
[04:21] <Qster> anyone use xchat?
[04:21] <dmsuperman> ubuntu: download supergrub, it's an iso that helps you setup grub really easily
[04:21] <dmsuperman> !supergrub | ubuntu
[04:21] <Qster> know of a  way to create aliases? or maybe a remote script like in mirc?
[04:21] <ubuntu> dmsuperman: so will have to burn on cd and boot from it?
[04:21] <sudobash> dmsuperman restart and check to see it is nvidia again... if it does then do a sudo apt-get update and then sudo apt-get upgrade....
[04:21] <sudobash> and then retry
[04:21] <dmsuperman> ubuntu: yes
[04:21] <sudobash> ubuntu yes
[04:22] <bingoer> hi all
[04:22] <dmsuperman> sudobash: do you want me to reinstall my driver before rebooting? i haven't started X yet
[04:22] <ubuntu> dmsuperman: doh. I am hoping that it woudln't come to burning another cd and booting again.
[04:22] <ubuntu> but oh well....
[04:22] <dmsuperman> ubuntu: trust me, it saves a lot of time, and it's only like 2mb
[04:22] <sudobash> you can if you want just make sure it says "nvidia" before you restart

[04:23] <dmsuperman> sudobash: already up to date, and the only thing in upgrade is libtotem related
[04:23] <dmsuperman> bingoer: your best bet is to just install firefox 2
[04:24] <dmsuperman> sudo apt-get install firefox-2
[04:24] <bingoer> the problem is: while typing in text fields, if I type _too fast_ the cursor jumps (once) to either some other text field, or to some other point within the text area.

[04:25] <Starnestommy> tv7497: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#nicksetup
[04:25] <bingoer> I'm on a dell inspiron 1525 laptop, and the wireless card is broadcom 4310
[04:26] <tv7497> thanx dudes
[04:26] <ubuntu> thanks all. rebooting.
[04:26] <dmsuperman> f4rr4r: AFAIR they're seperate from actual accounts, and you just create them in the shared folders interface
[04:26] <bingoer> i've seen a lot of threads covering that, but I was wondering if I could get the default drivers to work instead of having to install ndiswrapper
[04:26] <sudobash> clintchanc1 are you loading an exe or zip or inf or what?
[04:26] <dmsuperman> bingoer: good luck, to this day i still can't get wireless drivers to work with my dell laptop
[04:27] <kajo> Test, can someone respond to me so I can see something, using my username so I know you're talking to me?
[04:27] <bingoer> oh dear
[04:27] <kajo> that's not my name.
[04:27] <dmsuperman> sudobash: I ran those, already up to date and the only thing needing upgraded was related to libtotem
[04:27] <clintchanc1> sudobash, its an inf
[04:27] <Starnestommy> kajo: like this?
[04:27] <dmsuperman> kajo: test
[04:27] <f4rr4r> dmsuperman: I'm working from the command line.  Do you know where the file that contains the SMB user accounts is?
[04:27] <clintchanc1> sudobash but i just greped ndis
[04:27] <dmsuperman> f4rr4r: unfortunately not, sorry
[04:27] <sudobash> and?
[04:27] <reya276> sudobash: how can I download an app from the web via terminal?
[04:28] <dmsuperman> f4rr4r: sudo apt-get install lynx, then google it
[04:28] <clintchanc1> wget
[04:28] <dmsuperman> sudobash: same, i still have to reinstall my video driver
[04:28] <sudobash> yeap
[04:28] <clintchanc1> reya275^^^
[04:28] <sudobash> and it says nvidia
[04:28] <dmsuperman> sudobash: aye
[04:28] <sudobash> what version of ubuntu ?
[04:28] <dmsuperman> sudobash: hardy
[04:28] <reya276> clintchanc1: what's up?
[04:28] <dmsuperman> sudobash: but I've had this problem in gutsy before as well
[04:28] <clintchanc1> wget
[04:29] <andrer> strange thing... on 7.10, my nfs shares are not being mounted automatically on boot, but they are fine in my fstab (mount -a mounts them).. what "init script" is required for automatic nfs mouting?
[04:29] <sudobash> have you tried installing through synaptic?
[04:29] <dmsuperman> sudobash: installing what? the driver? I didn't know you could
[04:29] <eboyjr> What other users can I log in to on Ubuntu? (I may not log in on the one that was created when Ubuntu was installed)
[04:29] <linsejko> check, test?
[04:29] <sudobash> or you could try sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[04:30] <sudobash> sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-old
[04:30] <sudobash> sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new
[04:30] <dmsuperman> all three?
[04:30] <sudobash> or maybe it is legacy
[04:30] <sudobash> well if one doesnt work maybe the other will
[04:30] <Fezzler> Hardy struggles with nvidia and Compiz
[04:30] <dmsuperman> sudobash: my card is a 7900
[04:30] <bingoer> dmsuperman: did you also remove the firefox meta package ?
[04:30] <Fezzler> Crashes on me.  Hardy.  GeForce FX 5500.
[04:30] <astro76> andrer: I'd guess networking is being started after mounting
[04:30] <sudobash> yeah you need to install through synaptic or restricted driver
[04:30] <dmsuperman> bingoer: I just did sudo apt-get remove --purge firefox* and removed everything it asked, then installed firefox-2
[04:30] <Fezzler> Upgrade frm Fiesty
[04:31] <andrer> astro76: yes...
[04:31] <dmsuperman> sudobash: Should I install all 3? Or try 1 at a time?
[04:31] <Cyntek> can you install the new nvidia-glx while your using default with ubuntu hardy?
[04:31] <andrer> astro76: me too.. .but how to fix that?
[04:31] <sudobash> 1 at a time
[04:31] <andrer> astro76: it's a default install/config
[04:31] <sudobash> remove if it doesnt work
[04:31] <Fezzler> nvidia and glx new don't work so good
[04:31] <sudobash> there a few different ways to do a few different things nvidia wise
[04:31] <dmsuperman> sudobash: alright
[04:32] <sudobash> yeah no doubt
[04:32] <Cyntek> Which is better the one provide by nvidia website or the one that came with ubuntu 8.04?
[04:32] <sudobash> nvidia drivers used to work great
[04:32] <sudobash> i think its a toss up
[04:32] <sudobash> depends on card
[04:32] <sudobash> you have to find the best driver for you
[04:32] <dmsuperman> sudobash: yeah that's what I'd always heard, nvidia drivers were so awesome, but then I switch to linux and they turn out to not really be
[04:33] <spanther> Cyntek,  better use the ubuntu one since this one wont need a reinstallation after every update cause its configured to work better with ubuntu :)
[04:33] <bil1> Hi all.  Can anyone help a newbie with graphics card configuration?
[04:33] <sudobash> well linux nvidia was fine 6.04 7.04 7.10
[04:33] <SeaPhor> bazhang, do you know the best person to ask on this issue?
[04:33] <sudobash> had to do some extra config but that was fine with me
[04:33] <Fezzler> sudobash: Amen
[04:33] <Cyntek> thanks, spanther:
[04:33] <dmsuperman> sudobash: I had a bunch of problems in 7.10, that's why I always downloaded the latest from their website
[04:33] <reya276> sudobash: I can't access the web, that IP config stuff went Kaput
[04:34] <spanther> Cyntek,  no problem hehe :)
[04:34] <Cyntek> was just wondering since which driver would be suitable for best performance wise.
[04:34] <Fezzler> nvidia and compiz was good in Fiesty, Gutsy too
[04:34] <tv7497> thanx guys well my nick name is set and my problem is my splash screen isnt working any idea how to make it work every time i boot my system i need to type ctrl-alt-f1 to get txt type format for ubuntu start up
[04:34] <sudobash> reya you need to make sure you have your gateway and dns set
[04:34] <sudobash> properly
[04:34] <IndyGunFreak> so are you still in hawaii?
[04:34] <dmsuperman> sudobash: nvidia-glx didn't work, trying -new
[04:34] <IndyGunFreak> oops
[04:34] <Darmago> Hello
[04:34] <steve__> hello
[04:34] <eboyjr> IndyGunFreak: That's funny for some reason
[04:34] <Cyntek> would dmix be good to use in ubuntu hardy
[04:35] <Pramod> hey wat's the msn client we use in ubuntu? :)
[04:35] <eboyjr> Hello
[04:35] <sudobash> dmsuperman try the restricted and synaptic also
[04:35] <Jburrke> Hmm
[04:35] <spanther> Cyntek,  well i think they all will do the same work but the ubuntu restricted drivers one is modular you install it with this GUI interface and then still after updates it runs well no need to fix something :) it fits perfectly to ubuntu
[04:35] <Cyntek> amsn.
[04:35] <reya276> sudobash: ok can you help me, cause I don't know how to do that part
[04:35] <flip2405> Indygufreak is a newb :P
[04:35] <Jburrke> Can alien do the rpm > deb conversions on a mounted file?
[04:35] <dmsuperman> sudobash: Will do
[04:35] <sudobash> you will find one that works properly... also always start the bin script from nvidia with sudo or as root whichever
[04:35] <SeaPhor> IndyGunFreak,  do you know the best person to ask on this issue? have to reset wireless card after every restart
[04:35] <clintchanc1> Thanks everyone!!!!! I got a wireless signal of 80% 60 Feet from the ap using the inside chip!!!! Thanks Sudobash!
[04:35] <steve__> can anyone help me with some stuff on ubuntu?
[04:35] <flyingsquirrel32> Can someone help me mount a SD card?
[04:35] <Pramod> and wat about emesene? it uses gnome... :)
[04:35] <flyingsquirrel32> dmesg gives me :error -110 whilst initialising SDIO card
[04:36] <sudobash> ndiswrapper worked cool?
[04:36] <Jburrke> When I ran the command I got a bunch of "mkdir: cannot create directory 'blah': Read-only file system
[04:36] <flip2405> steve_ what you need
[04:36] <Pramod> !emesene
[04:36] <flyingsquirrel32> SDIO card claims to support the incompletely defined 'low voltage range'. This will be ignored.
[04:36] <clintchanc1> sudobash, ohh yeah, i got more signal on here than windows!
[04:36] <IndyGunFreak> SeaPhor: is it ran by ndiswrapper?
[04:36] <Darmago> I'm installing ubuntu on a laptop, and I've tried installing it a few times with wubi and a few times straight off the CD, but each time it locks up at 15% installation.  I ran memtest, but I wasn't around when it ended.
[04:36] <sudobash> lol
[04:36] <steve__> i need to know how to install programs
[04:36] <flyingsquirrel32> Has anyone seen this?
[04:36] <bil1> I'm trying to add a resolution to screen resolutions in Ubuntu 8.04
[04:36] <SeaPhor> IndyGunFreak,  yes
[04:36] <astro76> !synaptic | steve__
[04:36] <dmsuperman> Jburrke: NTFS?
[04:36] <steve__> im new to ubuntu and linux
[04:36] <bil1> Can anyone help with that?
[04:36] <clintchanc1> sudobash, now i just hope it dont die
[04:37] <sudobash> !apt | steve__
[04:37] <Jburrke> dmsuperman: ntfs? Oo
[04:37] <tv7497> guys sme help with my splash screen
[04:37] <tv7497> :-D
[04:37] <sudobash> shouldnt...
[04:37] <Cyntek> steve_: welcome.
[04:37] <IndyGunFreak> SeaPhor: does ndiswrapper start on boot up, or do you have to start it manually?
[04:37] <Pramod> u can use aptitude...
[04:37] <dmsuperman> Jburrke: is the filesystem you're trying to write to NTFS?
[04:37] <SeaPhor> IndyGunFreak,  ( i finally have mine working BTW) :-)
[04:37] <sudobash> if it does come back and see us
[04:37] <steve__> hi
[04:37] <reya276> sudobash:  ok is network suppose to be my DNS entry
[04:37]  * clintchanc1 kisses the laptop
[04:37] <Pramod> !aptitude | steve
[04:37] <Jburrke> dmsuperman: I have no idea, what's ntfs and how would I know lol
[04:37] <sudobash> dns is for domain name resoloution
[04:37] <IndyGunFreak> SeaPhor: i seem to remember you having an issue, wasn't it realtek?.. ive been out of the loop for a week or so.
[04:37] <SeaPhor> IndyGunFreak,  with someone sent to me for wireless issue, but is a boot isssue
[04:37] <dmsuperman> Jburrke: well what's the path of the folder you're trying to create
[04:38] <Jburrke> I'll just paste bin it dmsuperman
[04:38] <spanther> Jburrke,  ntfs = windows filesystem :P
[04:38] <SeaPhor> IndyGunFreak,  i fixed it!
[04:38] <tv7497> guys can any 1 of u read what im typing
[04:38] <reya276> sudobash: I followed this http://codesnippets.joyent.com/posts/show/319 to the T and i can get to any website
[04:38] <astro76> yes tv7497
[04:38] <dmsuperman> spanther: not always, FAT is also used by windows and that would allow writes ;)
[04:38] <SeaPhor> IndyGunFreak,  this is for someone i'm helping now
[04:38] <Cyntek> tv7497: yes!
[04:38] <flip2405> steve__ come channel flip
[04:38] <spanther> dmsuperman,  fat is not ntfs! :P
[04:38] <IndyGunFreak> SeaPhor: oh ok.. well, it sounds like you need to add ndiswrapper to your start up, or modprobe it or soething
[04:39] <flip2405> steve__ /j #flip2405\
[04:39] <Jburrke> dmsuperman: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12643/
[04:39] <dmsuperman> spanther: exactly what i'm saying
[04:39] <reya276> sudobash: I meant can't get to any website
[04:39] <tv7497> wow then any 1 of read my post about my splash screen
[04:39] <dmsuperman> Jburrke: I'm in commandline, I can't much open it
[04:39] <Caram> Anyone have problems using IDJC to connect to shoutcast?
[04:39] <dmsuperman> Jburrke: Just tell me the path of the folder you want to create
[04:39] <Jburrke> dmsuperman: Damn.
[04:39] <IndyGunFreak> SeaPhor: have they addd ndiswrapper to modprobe?
[04:39] <SeaPhor> IndyGunFreak,  he does, every time he restarts
[04:39] <spanther> dmsuperman, ntfs-3g <-- heard about it is able to open and write on ntfs hehe :)
[04:39] <Jburrke> dmsuperman: it's a few branches into /mnt/disk/maya
[04:39] <reya276> sudobash everything internally works like I'm actually connected to the machine remotely from a different pc, but only internal IP work
[04:40] <dmsuperman> spanther: Yeah, if this turns out to be an ntfs partition that's what i'll suggest, but i want make sure it's not FAT before we try to use ntfs-3g on it ;)
[04:40] <Finiras> is there an application that helps me configure grub or do i have to do that manually in some config file?
[04:40] <IndyGunFreak> SeaPhor: well that indicates he's not adding it correctly or something... is he saving it?
[04:40] <sudobash> right well you might have to automaticlly set your dns so you need to figure out what that is and set it in /etc/resolv.conf
[04:40] <dmsuperman> Jburrke: alright, do "sudo fdisk -l" in your command line
[04:40] <alexbOrsova> i heard my story being told somewhere around here... :) ignore me...
[04:40] <spanther> dmsuperman,  aaah i see :D hehe okay
[04:40] <Jburrke> dmsuperman: Okay
[04:40] <tv7497> guys my boot screen / splash screen not working i need to hit ctrl-alt-f1 every time after grub
[04:40] <sudobash> reya https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/2248
[04:40] <SeaPhor> alexbOrsova,  speak up bro
[04:40] <alexbOrsova> yo
[04:40] <dmsuperman> Jburrke: There should be something that looks like whatever drive that folder is mounted as
[04:41] <Jburrke> dmsuperman: Yeah
[04:41] <f4rr4r> Is there a way to display where drives are mounted, in the CLI?
[04:41] <dmsuperman> Jburrke: What's the Filesystem
[04:41] <flip2405> Who hasnt been helped yet
[04:41] <dmsuperman> Jburrke: sorry, just System
[04:41] <mogunus> Hello. I installed the most recent version of ubnutu on my laptop, and the fan won't turn on, so it overheats.
[04:41] <dmsuperman> flip2405: tv7497 hasn't
[04:41] <alexbOrsova> indi: yo
[04:41] <dmsuperman> flip2405: as far as i know
[04:41] <bil1> I'm having some problems, too.
[04:41] <bil1> :)
[04:42] <SeaPhor> IndyGunFreak, name is alexbOrsova , he's new and trying to talk to you
[04:42] <dmsuperman> f4rr4r: df
[04:42] <sudobash> reya you will have to set your gateway also before you will be able to access inet that would be like a router of some sort
[04:42] <f4rr4r> dmsuperman: thank you.
[04:42] <IndyGunFreak> SeaPhor: then he needs to say my whole name..lol
[04:42] <Jburrke> dmsuperman: I cant see anything that would relate to that folder, but I do see hpfs/ntfs under one area
[04:42] <alexbOrsova> IndyGunFreak: yello
[04:42] <Finiras> is there an application that helps me configure grub or do i have to do that manually in some config file? I want to edit the time until it automatically loads a OS and the prefered OS,
[04:42] <bil1> flip2405: can you help me with a screen resolution issuee?
[04:42] <reya276> sudobash: I did that too
[04:42] <dmsuperman> Jburrke: Actually yeah I forgot about that haha. Do "df" in a command prompt
[04:42] <flip2405> yes
[04:42] <flip2405> bill
[04:42] <Jburrke> dmsuperman: the rest say unknown, system, linux, extended, and linux swap/solaris
[04:42] <Jburrke> dmsuperman: lol okay
[04:42] <IndyGunFreak> alexbOrsova: are you sure you added it correctly to your modprobe list?
[04:42] <samf12412> Hey what is the best wireless card and/or wireless chipset for linux that has drivers currently built into the kernel, and is strong, it needs WPA encryption and to be atleast G (N is okay too)
[04:42] <Cyntek> hmm... just noticed that my "refresh rate" is at 53mhz when it should be at 75mhz.
[04:42] <dmsuperman> Jburrke: Look on the right, you'll see a /mnt/disk/maya or /mnt/disk
[04:43] <bil1> flip2405:  I havbe ubuntu 8.04.
[04:43] <flip2405> bil1 check pm
[04:43] <dmsuperman> Jburrke: find the corresponding Filesystem to the left of that
[04:43] <SeaPhor> IndyGunFreak, ty,
[04:43] <sudobash> so you have a good gateway and good dns positive?
[04:43] <alexbOrsova> IndyGunFreak: what do you mean by correctly? I've been doing "sudo modprobe ndiswrapper" to add it
[04:43] <Xcell> I clocked the crap out of my stuff = asus + amd4600+ corsair 800 + nvidia 7600 ....my processor is @ 1.3 volts  and is clocked @ 11x..what command can i use to get the actual clock speed...besides cat?
[04:43] <Cyntek> Is there a solution to force change the refresh rate to 75mhz?
[04:43] <IndyGunFreak> hmm,
[04:43] <flip2405> bill
[04:43] <flip2405> bil1 type /j #flip
[04:43] <Jburrke> dmsuperman: gvfs-fuse-daemon sound right?
[04:44] <reya276> sudobash: check PM
[04:44] <mogunus> Previously I had slack 12 on it, which turned on the fan fine. I think it is a kernel issue, because I got into /proc/acpi/fan, and it is empty
[04:44] <dmsuperman> Jburrke: sounds right, but sadly I'm not familiar with it. Somebody else will have to help you figure it out :(
[04:44] <flip2405> BIl1
[04:44] <Jburrke> dmsuperman: there are two, one ends with maya.iso (the file i'm mounting) and the other ends in mnt/disk
[04:44] <danbhfive> Cyntek: if you are using an nvidia card, its a known bug
[04:44] <Jburrke> dmsuperman: but the mnt/disk one has a blank filesystem
[04:45] <dmsuperman> Jburrke: Oh, it's an iso?
[04:45] <IndyGunFreak> alexbOrsova: i really don't know why you'd have to do that.., what wireless card are you using?
[04:45] <mogunus> which is weird and unfortunate, because all the other acpi stuff (battery, suspend, etc. works just dandy)
[04:45] <Cyntek> I am using an evga 7950gt ko 512 card
[04:45] <Jburrke> dmsuperman: Yeah I'm mounting an iso
[04:45] <dmsuperman> Jburrke: You won't be able to directly create a folder in it, as far as I know, without some sort of other tool
[04:45] <Cyntek> hanbhfive: is there a work a round for it
[04:45] <Jburrke> dmsuperman: So extract the files somewhere else? (would that work? Oo)
[04:45] <Finiras> is there an application that helps me configure grub or do i have to do that manually in some config file? I want to edit the time until it automatically loads a OS and the prefered OS,
[04:45] <alexbOrsova> IndyGunFreak: broadcom wireless minipci card, do you need the specific chipset?
[04:46] <Xcell> Cyntek:  whats the problem
[04:46] <Cyntek> need to force change my refresh rate
[04:46] <IndyGunFreak> alexbOrsova: no..
[04:46] <andrer> strange thing... on 7.10, my nfs shares are not being mounted automatically on boot, but they are fine in my fstab (mount -a mounts them).. what "init script" is required for automatic nfs mouting?
[04:46] <dmsuperman> Jburrke: eh, if all you need to do is get access to those files. If you're wanting to make the change to the ISO, you need other software (i'm pretty sure, could be wrong though)
[04:46] <IndyGunFreak> alexbOrsova: are you using hardy?
[04:46] <Cyntek> it's set to 53mhz and needs to be at 75mhz
[04:46] <Xcell> did you install nvidia settings manager in the repros?
[04:46] <alexbOrsova> IndyGunFreak: 8.04.
[04:46] <coolhacker> Is nouveau in synaptic?
[04:47] <danbhfive> Cyntek: the listed refreshes are wrong, if you want the highest supported value, then just pick the highest listed value.  I pick 53hz, and I get something like 75hz
[04:47] <Jburrke> dmsuperman: I've got access.. I'm trying to use alien to change the rpm files to deb files
[04:47] <alexbOrsova> IndyGunFreak: sorry, i don't know the name for it :)
[04:47] <IndyGunFreak> alexbOrsova: wasn't there a new package added to hardy, so you didn't need to use ndiswrapper?
[04:47] <Cyntek> its set at 53mhz
[04:47] <Jburrke> dmsuperman: But alien cant do it because I cant create directories
[04:47] <m1r> hello
[04:47] <dmsuperman> Jburrke: make a directory elsewhere, on your local filesystem
[04:47] <alexbOrsova> IndyGunFreak: was there? I don't know
[04:47] <m1r> anyone here having problems with setting up splashy on ubuntu 8.04 ?
[04:47] <Xcell> Cyntek:  install that...then reboot. to allow X to see it..then come back
[04:47] <dmsuperman> can alien specify a directory to output them in? I'm sure it can...
[04:47] <nakedgoat> whoever wanted the grub editor, try google http://www.ubuntugeek.com/qgrubeditor-a-visual-grub-configuration-editor.html
[04:47] <alexbOrsova> IndyGunFreak: I've done the same thing for the past four ubuntu versions
[04:48] <alexbOrsova> IndyGunFreak: this is the first tmie it hasn't worked
[04:48] <IndyGunFreak> alexbOrsova: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Hardy
[04:48] <dmsuperman> Jburrke: If alien can specify an output directory, just specify one on your local drive
[04:49] <Cyntek> the default status is set to 53mhz i have been rebooting since i successfully installed the restricted drivers.
[04:49] <alexbOrsova> IndyGunFreak: ok, but
[04:49] <Jburrke> dmsuperman: ah, good idea.. But I'm not sure if that's even possible, and if it was I wouldnt even know what to do cuz I'm following a guide XD
[04:49] <Xcell> well have fun then Cyntek
[04:49] <alexbOrsova> IndyGunFreak: that's not exactly the same thing
[04:49] <mogunus> Oh, and I know the fan isn't physically broken, because it turn on during suspend/resume.
[04:49] <Cyntek> thanks for the help
[04:49] <alexbOrsova> IndyGunFreak: i wasn't using bcm43xxx in the first place. Im using ndiswrapper and it works
[04:49] <dmsuperman> Jburrke: what's the command to run alien?
[04:49] <alexbOrsova> IndyGunFreak: I just don't understand why it doesn't automatically load the module at startup
[04:50] <IndyGunFreak> alexbOrsova: my point is, you shouldn't need ndiswrapper.. but honestly, i really don't know why you have to modprobe it every time, makes no sense
[04:50] <Botulinum> Any idea why when a boot from disk ubuntu still says its loadinging after 30 minutes
[04:50] <Jburrke> dmsuperman: sudo apt-get install csh alien
[04:50] <dabbill> I am useing k9copy to backup some movie dvds i have. I put a check mark in all the titlesets, click DVD at the top, put in the name of the iso file and click save, It appears to run and compress the movie, but a ISO is never made.
[04:50] <Botulinum> I burned it at 8x
[04:50] <Jburrke> then you type for i in *.rpm; do sudo alien -cv $i; done
[04:50] <alexbOrsova> IndyGunFreak: btw, im reading the page and i dont see ndiswrapper mentioned
[04:51] <Jburrke> When you're CD'd into the directory with the rpms
[04:51] <Cyntek> whats the command line to inter xorg.conf
[04:51] <SeaPhor> IndyGunFreak, his wireless works, just he has to reset it every reboot to make it work
[04:51] <Jburrke> dmsuperman: sorry I didnt write your name, forgot XD
[04:51] <Cyntek> enter*
[04:51] <Xcell> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:51] <stephans> what does this mean? kernel: [84723.372068] ata3.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x2 frozen
[04:51] <Jburrke> dmsuperman: Omg I feel so stupid, I skipped a whole line in the guide
[04:51] <dmsuperman> Jburrke: heh
[04:51] <alexbOrsova> IndyGunFreak: so whoudl I try a different driver or keep modprobing?
[04:52] <Jburrke> dmsuperman: It says clearly on the guide "Copy all the rpm files into a local directory"
[04:52] <dmsuperman> Jburrke: lol
[04:52] <stephans> whe dvd burners etc try to start they become 'uninteruptible'
[04:52] <dmsuperman> Jburrke: that would do it
[04:52] <Jburrke> dmsuperman: Lmao, thanks for the help anyways
[04:52] <stephans> help
[04:52] <Xcell> halp?

[04:53] <IndyGunFreak> alexbOrsova: i honestly don't know..
[04:53] <dabbill> I am useing k9copy to backup some movie dvds i have. I put a check mark in all the titlesets, click DVD at the top, put in the name of the iso file and click save, It appears to run and compress the movie, but a ISO is never made.
[04:53] <Botulinum> Does anyone know if this is normal?
[04:53] <m1r> anyone using splashy ?
[04:53] <stephans> what does this mean? kernel: [84723.372068] ata3.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x2 frozen
[04:53] <Xcell> Cyntek:  R U going for broke = the leats bootage to annoy the helpers as you cry for help?...just asking.
[04:54] <dmsuperman> Jburrke: no problems
[04:54] <wil__> Has anyone successfully been able to upload to what.cd in ubuntu?
[04:54] <Jburrke> dmsuperman: THERE we go.. Thanks a lot XD
[04:54] <Xcell> least*
[04:54] <alexbOrsova> IndyGunFreak: ubuntu doesn't even recognize my card without ndiswrapper, though, so Im not usre if there is a diff. driver, you know?
[04:54] <veliuX> hello is it possible to use the free space of my windows partition to install ubuntu, or can i repartition the free space without reinstalling windows?
[04:55] <IndyGunFreak> alexbOrsova: i don't thinkt he driver is the issue, if it was a driver problem, it wouldn't work
[04:55] <bingoer> dmsuperman: silly me, the cursor still jumps in firefox 2
[04:55] <dmsuperman> Jburrke, figured everything out then?
[04:56] <bingoer> dmsuperman: it could be a touchpad sensitivity issue as per on of the threads
[04:56] <dmsuperman> bingoer, ?
[04:56] <Jburrke> dmsuperman: Actually, not at all.. Just the very first bit
[04:56] <bingoer> dmsuperman: silly me, the cursor still jumps in firefox 2
[04:56] <bingoer> dmsuperman: it could be a touchpad sensitivity issue as per one of the threads
[04:56] <dmsuperman> bingoer, Oh, missed that. I was just switching IRC clients
[04:56] <Jburrke> dmsuperman: The hardest part hasnt even come, and I need some major help with it, but i cant really talk about it here xD
[04:56] <alexbOrsova> IndyGunFreak: exactly my train of thought, so then why is ssb still loading instead of ndiswrapper even though ssb is blacklisted
[04:57] <tv7497> guys my splash screen not working
[04:57] <Jburrke> dmsuperman: When I get there, you think I could pm you and get some help? :D
[04:57] <IndyGunFreak> alexbOrsova: i wish i could give you an answer, i have no idea.
[04:57] <dmsuperman> bingoer, Perhaps. I know on my dad's laptop, you'll accidently barely brush the touchpad and click elsewhere, very obnoxious
[04:57] <Xcell> tv7497:  be honest..what did you do to it.
[04:57] <dmsuperman> bingoer, luckily his has a little button to disable/enable the touchpad
[04:57] <brand0con> i get errors when i update because gnome-desktop-data_1%3a2.22.1-0ubuntu6.2_all.deb cant be accessed.  how can i fix the package
[04:57] <dmsuperman> Jburrke, Feel free, but there's no guarentees I'll be any help :P
[04:57] <alexbOrsova> IndyGunFreak: olright, thanks for trying anyway
[04:57] <tv7497> nothing its been after my upgarde to hardy this problem statrted
[04:57] <bingoer> dmsuperman: i was actually very careful to keep my palms away from the touchpad so I'm still not convinced
[04:58] <Jburrke> dmsuperman: Haha no worries, it's worth a try, right? :D
[04:58] <tv7497> *at xcell
[04:58] <dmsuperman> Jburrke, sure
[04:58] <Xcell> ok, what is it doing..maybe Ican help
[04:58] <dmsuperman> bingoer, Try and lift your hands completely up and type with fingertyips, very quickly, I'd say that's a proper test
[04:58] <bingoer> :)
[04:58] <In-Sane> Hi, I plugged in my network cable into Ubuntu 8.04 hoefully it will detect the local settings, I have an issue identifying the network? any suggestions, please?
[04:59] <clintchanc1> Guys is there a way to expand my diskspace from within ubuntu?
[04:59] <tv7497> xcell : it goes blank totally blank no out put to monitor then i need ro press ctrl-alt-f1 to get text based ubuntu loading
[04:59] <IndyGunFreak> clintchanc1: i imagine gparted would do it.
[04:59] <bingoer> dmsuperman: hmm, it worked
[05:00] <utnubU_kcuF> Ubuntu isn't working with my IBM PC Server SCSI drives.
[05:00] <dmsuperman> bingoer, Now all you have to do is find a way to set a hotkey to disable the touchpad
[05:00] <gwp> I installed wine and then world of warcraft the game ran fine, then I installed burning crusade and now it crashes at the screen to accept the ToS, anyone know a fix?
[05:00] <steven2> Ok I have an interesting question.  Werent answering my pm XD
[05:01] <steven2> Whover gets it gets the prize of getting kicked off the server.
[05:01] <weix> is there a way to deploy different versions of ubuntu to different machines in a lan from one place?
[05:02] <dmsuperman> Jburrke, I am, I just forgot to identify
[05:02] <Jburrke> dmsuperman: cool :P
[05:02] <utnubU_kcuF> Now I need help installing Ubuntu on my IBM PC Server with dual Pentium 90 MHz!
[05:02] <rich_freecomm> oops...
[05:02] <rich_freecomm> seluR_utnubU
[05:02] <rich_freecomm> even
[05:02] <dmsuperman> rich_freecomm, agreed
[05:02] <dmsuperman> :D
[05:03] <hydrogen> so
[05:03] <hydrogen> if I ndiswrapper -i driver
[05:03] <hydrogen> and then ndiswrapper -m
[05:03] <steven2> I have a Samsung Blackjack I and was able to connect it fine to Windows XP. But not that I use Ubuntu I want to be able to upload pictures from it. Any ideas?
[05:03] <hydrogen> why does modprobe ndiswrapper still not work?
[05:03] <Daisuke_Ido> why would i have access to the outside world using dhcp, but only access to the lan using a static ip?
[05:03] <RichardStallman> This should be GNU/Ubuntu!
[05:03] <Xcell> tv7497: in my personal opinion...i would re-do X...since the upgrade, X got corrupted. do...   sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg    now that being said...you may encounter other problems, there is no guarantee to this..but it most likely fixes the problem.
[05:04] <Daisuke_Ido> RichardStallman: your trolling is quite droll, but annoying.  go elsewhere.
[05:04] <Shootfast> hey guys, I have a quick Raid 5 question
[05:04] <hydrogen> you responded to it
[05:04] <hydrogen> therefore you made him happy
[05:04] <RichardStallman> ;)
[05:04] <tv7497> xcell :will give it a try dude
[05:04] <In-Sane> Hi, I plugged in my network cable into Ubuntu 8.04 hoefully it will detect the local settings, I have an issue identifying the network? any suggestions, please?
[05:04] <Xcell> ok come back when done
[05:04] <dmsuperman> tv7497, Just as an addendum to Xcell's statement, I'd also backup your xorg.conf before you do anything with it (sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg-bak/xorg.conf)
[05:04] <Shootfast> I'm on the live cd, however dmraid complains that raid45 isnt in the kernel
[05:05] <Shootfast> ive modprobed dm_raid45
[05:05] <tv7497> dmsuperman :thanx dude
[05:05] <Shootfast> not sure what to do next
[05:05] <steven2> I have a Samsung Blackjack I and was able to connect it fine to Windows XP. But not that I use Ubuntu I want to be able to upload pictures from it. Any ideas?
[05:05] <Xcell> thanks dmsuperman
[05:05] <dmsuperman> tv7497, Xcell no prob
[05:05] <dmsuperman> tv7497, only from hours and hours of recreating xorg.conf have I learned the hard way to make a billion backups
[05:06] <dmsuperman> tv7497, I probably have 15 different xorg.conf's backed up haha
[05:06] <me> could anyone please tell me how to upgrade from ubuntu 8.04 to ubuntu Studio 8.04
[05:06] <hydrogen> why do people use sourceforge
[05:06] <hydrogen> it sucks
[05:06] <hydrogen> :/
[05:06] <FloodBot2> hydrogen: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:06] <flip2405> tv7497 What did you need?

[05:13] <steven2> I have a Samsung BlackJack smartphone with Windows Mobile on it. I want to be able to connect it to Ubuntu. But not as a modem. I want to 'sync' my computer with it. Any ideas?
[05:13] <Shootfast> anyone know raid 5?
[05:13] <flip2405> In-sane try again
[05:13] <steven2> I was thinking of hacking it by putting Linux on it. Anyone know how?
[05:13] <Xcell> aCCe-:  enable your all repros in add/remove
[05:13] <_nix_> ! hello
[05:13] <Shootfast> steven2, I dont recommend that
[05:13] <_nix_> lol
[05:14] <flip2405> Dmsuperman What you need man
[05:14] <aCCe-> Xcell,  how to do that im new on linux
[05:14] <sudobash> but there is ubuntu mobile
[05:14] <steven2> Shootfast: Why? I don't use it for a phone. Only to upload stuff to the internet.
[05:14] <sudobash> not recommended for your purpose though
[05:14] <Shootfast> steven2, you can try the guys at xda developers
[05:14] <steven2> sudobash: Where can I get it. Plus installating instructions?
[05:14] <Shootfast> steven2, but barely anything will work on it
[05:14] <dmsuperman> flip2405: Having issues with my video driver. Whenever I reboot, I get low settings mode, and I have to reinstall my video driver and restart X to get it to work
[05:14] <Xcell> aCCe-:  go to applictions>addremove...at the top enable (all)
[05:14] <mdtcmc> is anybody having any issues with the uk package server? it seems offline
[05:14] <kami> hi guys
[05:14] <dmsuperman> flip2405: Once I reinstall it and restart X it works fine, but every time I reboot it seems to lose it somehow
[05:15] <macd> mdtcmc, someone using the uk mirrors earlier today was having problems theyre just overloaded
[05:15] <kami> where is the LoadModule sections for xorg.conf? I have the new ubuntu 8.0.4 LTS but the xorg.conf seems appear to be incomplete
[05:15] <steven2> Shootfast: I only need to connect it to my PCs Ubuntu. But as it is it wont connect. I need Windows ActiveSync. But that doesn't work with Ubuntu.
[05:15] <flip2405> dmsuperman as i told him i really dont know how to do grapic drivers but i can try
[05:15] <aCCe-> i dont see enable all Xcell  only all avalible app..
[05:15] <flip2405> come channel flip
[05:15] <kami> can you help me?
[05:15] <mdtcmc> ahh, thanks. macd. appreciated
[05:15] <steven2> Also, I've tried using it under Windows Vista in my Virtualbox. But that doesn't work either.
[05:15] <Xcell> ok then check for what you are using. most apps change with updates, just search all,
[05:15] <rich_freecomm> Is there a 'rmdir' that will ignore 'Directory not empty'?
[05:15] <Shootfast> steven2, I dont own one, but if your device has internet or wifi capabilities, perhaps there is a third party application to give you a file manager of sorts?
[05:16] <macd> rich_freecomm, rm -rf
[05:16] <Starnestommy> rich_freecomm: rm -r
[05:16] <macd> rich_freecomm, be careful with it though!
[05:16] <steven2> Shootfast: Mine can either connect to a PC with Bluetooth or USB. But I don't have a bluetooth adapter. So that option is out.
[05:16] <aCCe-> Xcell,  how to update?
[05:16] <kami> hey where can I set the load module option for XGL in xorg.conf
[05:17] <steven2> I'll look into Ubuntu Mobile though.
[05:17] <rich_freecomm> tx macd, Starnestommy
[05:17] <tv7497> dmsuperman : dude its asking for using kerel frame buffer device interface shld i aceept it
[05:17] <reya276> flip2405: how can I install a .deb through terminal that I download it on my home dir
[05:17] <Shootfast> steven2, theyre pretty cheap, you can pick up a usb bluetooth adapter for about $20
[05:17] <Xcell> aCCe-:  did it not update when you allowed all apps?
[05:17] <ceil420> !nvidia
[05:17] <Shootfast> steven2, Ubuntu mobile is for x86 mobile pc's
[05:17] <Shootfast> steven2, not for embeded devices
[05:17] <steven2> Shootfast: Yeah. I've looked at a few. I don't know what kind of smartphone I have.
[05:18] <mudd`Hossam> hello how can i not have to keep changing ownership from www-data and my user account/
[05:18] <tv7497> xcell: dude its asking for using kerel frame buffer device interface shld i aceept it
[05:18] <mudd`Hossam> ?
[05:18] <rich_freecomm> again...tx macd, Starestommy   That worked like a charm!
[05:18] <Shootfast> steven2, chances are its got an ARM processor
[05:18] <reya276> how can I install a .deb through terminal that I download it on my home dir?
[05:18] <In-Sane> flip2405?
[05:18] <eccentricity> anyone know a good way with, say, bc to calculate pi to say, 1000 digits?
[05:18] <Starnestommy> reya276: sudo dpkg -i filename.deb
[05:18] <Xcell> thats new to me .. couldnt tell you.  maybe so sinse it has to make room
[05:19] <kami> fuckers
[05:19] <steven2> Shootfast: How would I find out? Also, I found ubuntu.com/products/mobile. But I can't see where to download and install it.
[05:20] <Shootfast> steven2, ubuntu mobile isnt going to work on your blackjack
[05:20] <Shootfast> steven2, I dont even think it's released yet

[05:20] <steven2> Shootfast: Is there a free operating system that would? Cause Windows Mobile wont work with Ubuntu. Or if it does. I can't figure it out.
[05:20] <tmapj> hey folks
[05:21] <Xcell> tv7497:  go to addremove and go to prefs.. and check the proper clicks so as to allow you the proper allowances
[05:21] <ari_stress> morning all

[05:21] <Shootfast> steven2, try that link ^^^
[05:21] <tmapj> could anyone pls tell me how to upgrade from Hardy Heron to Ubuntu Studio?
[05:21] <Shootfast> steven2, you'll have to stick with windows mobile (thats what the device was made for)
[05:21] <tv7497> xcell : proper allowances ???????????/ didnt get u dude
[05:21] <Shootfast> steven2, but at least then you can sync
[05:22] <steven2> Shootfast: Oh and according to the wiki for Ubuntu Mobile.  But I'll check out the link you gave me.
[05:22] <Shootfast> steven2, thats because thats just a smaller x86 pc
[05:22] <flip2405> tmapj what you need
[05:22] <tmapj> i need to upgrade to ubuntu studio
[05:23] <In-Sane> lol
[05:23] <Shootfast> steven2, mobile phones have different processors that regular pcs

[05:23] <trollboy> lemme know how that works out Tmapj
[05:23] <Starnestommy> flip2405: staff on this network don't k/g-line for personal disputes or channel issues
[05:23] <tmapj> ok
[05:23] <Shootfast> steven2, and due to their proprietary nature, its hard to port linux onto them
[05:23] <trollboy> I've seen it online, but don't have a system to put it on
[05:23] <In-Sane> lol
[05:23] <In-Sane> what a day we are having here!
[05:23] <hydrogen> well.. thats cool
[05:24] <flip2405> Starnestommy im not saying a personal dispute do you not hearing him swear every other word
[05:24] <Xcell> I can do a clean install that would make Mr Clean jealous.
[05:24] <con-man> how do I copy contents of a folder via terminal
[05:24] <nguyenhuuduyduc> d
[05:24] <dmsuperman> steven2: I'll have to agree with Shootfast. Unless the device is designed with Linux in mind, or linux based, it
[05:24] <dmsuperman> 's harder to manage
[05:24] <aeon17x> !opera
[05:24] <con-man> how do I copy contents of a folder via terminal
[05:24] <steven2> dmsuperman: I think he said that.
[05:25] <In-Sane> Starnestommy: he invited me to his channel to help me with my issue, see its not complicated.. the complicated part is that after shooting my question he kicked from the channel? LOL
[05:25] <steven2> Shootfast: I opened the link. But they basicly only explain how to use the Blackjack as a modem. I need it as a file sharing device.
[05:25] <Starnestommy> In-Sane: and what does this have to do with ubuntu support?
[05:25] <con-man> anyone?
[05:25] <tmapj> trollboy u need help?
[05:25] <Starnestommy> con-man: cp -r /path/to/old/folder /path/to/new/folder
[05:25] <In-Sane> I really don't know, I asked for supposrt and he GAVE me the support by kicking me hehe
[05:25] <niuq> GSynaptics couldn't initialize.
[05:25] <niuq> You have to set 'SHMConfig' 'true' in xorg.conf or XF86Config to use GSynaptics
[05:25] <steven2> Shootfast: Also, I tried the 'mount' command but it doesn't seem to work for me.

[05:26] <trollboy> I offer help when I can, and elsewise eavesdrop
[05:26] <flip2405> In-sane i kicked you because i had other people to help it was nothing personal

[05:26] <dmsuperman> sudobash: Are you there?
[05:26] <con-man> Starnestommy: I would like to move the contents not the folder
[05:26] <steven2> mlr: Not from what I've seen so far.
[05:26] <trollboy> eavesdropping is a great way to learn
[05:26] <dabbill> I am tryin to create an ISO of a DVD with DVD95, but the iso it makes is not readable by windows or my DVD player. Also k9copy wont create a ISO of any DVD.

[05:28] <flip2405> Flannel you can do that to me but when he is swearing every other word you aint going to do anything?

[05:28] <Shootfast> trollboy, lol what?
[05:28] <Xcell> all  i gave you was the master, check it out
[05:28] <Starnestommy> flip2405: drop it.  This channel is for Ubuntu support, not argueing
[05:28] <flip2405> Then tell him to quit FLAMEING ME while im trying to help people
[05:28] <Flannel> flip2405: I just got here, I have no idea what else is going on.  Him swearing is no excuse for bad manners though.
[05:28] <KHAnet> anyone use tomato firmware for wrt54g?
[05:28] <niuq> i get this message when i launch gsynaptics http://pastebin.com/m34915040
[05:29] <Starnestommy> flip2405: there's a reason why /ignore exists
[05:29] <dabbill> KHAnet, i do
[05:29] <m1r> Xcell: yes, that why i ask where is download :)
[05:29] <sussu> How can I install Krdm in ubuntu?
[05:29] <Xcell> ok
[05:29] <sussu> apt-get?
[05:29] <KHAnet> do you have problems with downloading when you first load it
[05:29] <flip2405> sussu apt-get install krdm
[05:29] <dschulz> con-man:   you can also try  this    $ (cd /path/to/orig/ && tar c . ) | ( cd /path/to/dest && tar xv  )
[05:29] <Phirephly> I'd just like to point out Ubuntu 8 rocks.  I'll see you guys in a couple days or something when I get up the nerve to try again.
[05:30] <techqbert> does anybody know a serious linux application for removing duplicate files?  I've tried fslint and fdupes yet it still seems to be the case that some files linger in /media/music/X/Y/Song.mp3 and /media/music/X/Y/Z/Song.mp3 and its soo damn annoying, perhaps they don't md5 out to be the same.
[05:30] <Xcell> Phirephly:  rock on.
[05:30] <KHAnet> dabbill?
[05:30] <dmsuperman> techqbert: so manually md5sum them and compare
[05:30] <tv7497> xcell : not working dude splash screen :-(
[05:30] <dabbill> KHAnet, what do you mean? downloading the firmware? or just downloading any thing
[05:30] <dmsuperman> techqbert: if they're different then that means they aren't the same file
[05:30] <m1r> tv7497: what is problem ?
[05:30] <KHAnet> p2p downloads
[05:31] <techqbert> dmsuperman: I got like 70gb of music though.  Are you saying I should use a script?
[05:31] <Phirephly> Though I do have a few questions: Is hibernate and suspend in the future for Wubi?
[05:31] <dabbill> KHAnet, never any any problems with any downloads, just make sure you have your ports maped correctly
[05:31] <rich_freecomm> Phirephly, you know it
[05:31] <brand0con> how do i reinstall ubuntu over itself saving my home folder
[05:31] <Xcell> tv7497:  i have a few suggestions, but the folks that know more than me may not agree...du to user lack of xperience
[05:31] <brand0con> will the option to migrate be there when i use the live cd installer
[05:31] <dmsuperman> techqbert: I mean just to test that those apps are working, try a single mp3 you know to be the same song
[05:31] <dmsuperman> and md5sum them
[05:32] <KHAnet> dabbill, ports and everything are fine i just can't figure out why my downloads are so slow
[05:32] <dmsuperman> if they're different, then they may be the same song but the audio itself differs
[05:32] <tv7497> m1r : my splash screen not working i need to hit ctrl -alt -f1 every time to get text screen wrkng of ubuntu
[05:32] <dmsuperman> in which case i have no clue what you could do
[05:32] <techqbert> brand0con: in the future I suggest you create a different partition for home.  I've never been in that pickle so I'm not sure how to help ya
[05:32] <dabbill> KHAnet, what app you useing for p2p ?
[05:32] <tv7497> xcell : i wld try any thing dude
[05:32] <KHAnet> dabbill, KTorrent
[05:32] <techqbert> dmsuperman: hrm
[05:32] <m1r> tv7497: did u mess with it *?
[05:32] <tv7497> mir : nope
[05:33] <Xcell> tv7497:  install bootupmanager. ...ur on ur own now...the fix is in
[05:33] <dmsuperman> tv7497: reinstall ubuntu?
[05:33] <rich_freecomm> tv7497: mine comes up in the wrong resolution...
[05:33] <dabbill> KHAnet, i use transmission thats built in to Hardy, only get slow speeds when the torrents have hardly any seeders.
[05:33] <tv7497> xcell : boot up mamager ?????????
[05:34] <Phirephly> So, on to the questions, anyone feel like helping me run Heron at 1440x900 with only integrated graphics?
[05:34] <techqbert> dmsuperman: they md5 to the same thing yet fslint and fdupes don't pick up on it
[05:34] <Xcell> go to addremove..look up boot up manager
[05:34] <mudd`Hossam> how can i give my username access to the group www-data for apache2?
[05:34] <techqbert> dmsuperman: most important I ran fdupes with the r flag, recurse through subdirectories.  Hrm.
[05:34] <KHAnet> dabbill, k thanks i'll try that
[05:34] <tv7497> dmsuperman : reinstall but hoe do u back up all the stuff
[05:34] <Phirephly> Currently stuck at 1280x800 and everything is too big.
[05:34] <dmsuperman_> Jburrke, back
[05:34] <Xcell> nvidia? Phirephly?
[05:35] <KHAnet> dabbill, whats your internet connection
[05:35] <Phirephly> The only help Google is tossing me is for nvidia.
[05:35] <Phirephly> Xcell: No, Intel GMA
[05:35] <flip2405> mud`hossam Jin that channel
[05:35] <dabbill> KHAnet, 12meg Cable through Comcast.
[05:35] <tv7497> rich_freecomm : dude how do u check resolution for splash scree
[05:35] <dschulz> mudd hossam:   gpasswd -a yourname www-data
[05:35] <Xcell> ok. cant help. srry
[05:35] <LSD|Ninja> In 7.10 this would have been easy, but 8.04 dropped the control panel for this >_<
[05:35] <dmsuperman> techqbert: I'm not familiar with either of those. I'm assuming that what's happening is they're looking for the same filenames, rather than md5 checksums. is that how they work?
[05:35] <KHAnet> dabbill, whats yoru avg. speed with a healthy torrent?
[05:36] <Xcell> tv7497:  its in ur 2nd screen in screens and graphics
[05:36] <dabbill> KHAnet, good speeds i see 500k/sec to 1000k/sec
[05:36] <dabbill> KHAnet, average is 300k/sec
[05:36] <Shootfast> So am I to assume that Raid 5 still hasn't been fixed since Edgy?
[05:36] <Xcell> dabbill:  i have my stuff so rockin..it scares me its so fast
[05:37] <^V^> Hi, I'm having trouble with printing. The cups error log: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12651/
[05:37] <dabbill> Xcell, lol, i have 6 computers useing my connection tho :/
[05:37] <Phirephly> To get 1440x900 without an nVidia card, I'm assuming (from what I've read) that I'll need to muck around with Xorg?
[05:37] <KHAnet> dabbill, k i have 6meg dsl windstream what should an avg speed for me be then? any suggestions?
[05:37] <synacktion> my new penryn chip has a cpufreq problem.  it lists correct available cpu frequencies, but cpufreq-info reports the wrong range no matter what governor is used

[05:37] <dmsuperman_> so does compiz support placing windows on different monitors yet? like, so when you open a new window of something you can use the "place windows" panel to specify for it to go on another monitor?
[05:37] <dabbill> KHAnet, i would say 200k/sec to 300k/sec
[05:37] <mogunus> So, I tried installing lm-sensors, and running sensors-detect, and now I get nice readouts of my CPU tems, but the fan still does not turn on.
[05:38] <alecwh> I have apache2 installed, and I want to set it up so I can run python scripts in my browser. How do I do this? I installed libapache2-mod-python, but my browser still just wants to download "test.py" as a file.
[05:38] <tv7497> xcell :dude im really confused i cant find boot up manager in add remove
[05:38] <m1r> Phirephly: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ?
[05:38] <tv7497> dude*
[05:38] <Flannel> tv7497: use synaptic, not add/remove
[05:38] <KHAnet> dabbill, did you just port forward for transmission or did you tweak a lot of things in your router?
[05:38] <Cpudan80> alecwh: Did you enable the mod?
[05:38] <gambler> does ubuntu latest ship with the openjdk?
[05:38] <alecwh> Cpudan80: I don't think so. How do I do this?
[05:38] <dabbill> KHAnet, just port forward
[05:38] <Xcell> tv7497:  my apolgize. im on 7.10...not sure  (thought 8.04 had it)
[05:39] <KHAnet> dabbill, k thanks
[05:39] <Phirephly> m1r: I'll be honest, I'm taking a shot in the dark, I'm not familiar enough to claim I know what I'm doing.
[05:39] <Cpudan80> alecwh: Not sure how to do python..... but the command is a2enmod modName
[05:39] <techqbert> dmsuperman: ya know strangely enough fdupes picked up AlbumArt438u93289432.jpg and Folder.jpg but maybe b.c they are in the same directory because it didn't pick up Sublime - Cool Song.mp3 (for sake of brevity) and 18 - Cool Song.mp3 in different directories
[05:40] <Cpudan80> alecwh: For php it's a2enmod php5 ---- maybe a2enmod python ?
[05:40] <m1r> Phirephly: tpye in console this command and floow instructions on screen -  dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:40] <Phirephly> m1r: I'll give it a shot.

[05:40] <^V^> From cupsd.conf: SystemGroup lpadmin User lp Group lpadmin
[05:40] <Cpudan80> alecwh: After you enable it you have to restart it (sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart)
[05:40] <alecwh> Cpudan80: alecwh@alecwh-laptop:~$ a2enmod mod_python
[05:40] <alecwh> This module is already enabled!
[05:40] <termagan1> This is sort of a weird (and possibly stupid) question, but is there a library of alert sounds anywhere on the Hardy Heron install?
[05:40] <dschulz> alecwh:  you should put your python script in a cgi-bin directory
[05:41] <alecwh> dschulz: I really just want to run it anywhere on my root directory

[05:42] <Xcell> try*
[05:42] <tv7497> Flannel : sir what is bum for ?????????
[05:43] <Phirephly> m1r: I'm toying around with reconfiguring xorg, but it's asking me for a keyboard layout. It won't let me push OK or pick a certain layout. Nor does it have anywhere to type it in. Am I missing something here?
[05:43] <Flannel> tv7497: bum is "boot up manager" thats the package name
[05:43] <tv7497> Flannel : oh thanx sir
[05:43] <Joe_> is ubuntu newbie friendly?
[05:44] <dabbill> any one know how to make dvd95 make ISO's that are readable by windows / DVD players?
[05:44] <Phirephly> m1r: Nevermind. I'm just being dense.
[05:44] <Flannel> Joe_: most people think so, yes.
[05:44] <m1r> Phirephly: keep default
[05:44] <Joe_> do i have to do a clean install everytime a new version of ubuntu comes out?
[05:44] <Flannel> Joe_: No, you can upgrade between versions
[05:44] <Joe_> flannel with a command?
[05:45] <tv7497> xcell : dude im on bum now what
[05:45] <Flannel> Joe_: Sort of, yeah.  A few clicks of a button
[05:45] <tj1515> i'm trying to get emerald working properly when i start my computer it uses the default ubuntu theme to get emerald i have to alt+f4 and type emerald --replace this fixes the problem till the next restart
[05:45] <nitro> hey people
[05:45] <Joe_> so ubuntu will always be the latest on my system with the few clicks of a button?
[05:45] <dschulz> alecwh: i've found the right solution googlin  "apache cgi-bin python"
[05:45] <Xcell> tv7497:  i know nothing about bum.
[05:45] <m1r> _yes Joe_
[05:45] <Flannel> Joe_: It can be, yes.
[05:45] <Joe_> wow thats so cool
[05:45] <Xcell> tv7497:  google it, read and educate yourself
[05:46] <Phirephly> m1r: After all the keyboard settings, I'm returned to console. There are no video settings.
[05:46] <nitro> bum??
[05:46] <pkundu> i have 7.10 installed and want to upgrade to 8.04 CD. how to do that? thanks
[05:46] <Xcell> dont do it
[05:46] <m1r> Phirephly: at end it should ask you advanced
[05:46] <Flannel> !bum | tv7497
[05:46] <Xcell> lol
[05:46] <pkundu> *from 8.04 CD
[05:46] <Joe_> pkundu:  just a few clicks
[05:46] <tj1515> auto update has an option to update to 8.04
[05:46] <Flannel> pkundu: do you have the alternate CD or the desktop CD?
[05:46] <pkundu> desktop cd
[05:47] <Flannel> pkundu: you need the alternate CD to upgrade via CD.  You'll need to download the alternate CD, or just upgrade through the internet
[05:47] <alecwh> dschulz: I don't want to use cgi-bin though, I just want to run it like a .php file in my directory.
[05:47] <nitro> anyone get screensaver running on compiz?
[05:47] <xim> Mplayer still cant play .ram files.  I installed mplayer, medibuntu, w64codecs, all the updates, and now mplayer can play .rm files.  But i want it to play ram files off the internet (should be a common thing) and it still doesnt know how to take the .rm url out of the .ram file and play it (which should be the easy part).  is there a workaround for this?
[05:47] <Phirephly> m1r: It echoes, "xserver-xorg postinst warning: overwriting possibly-customised configuration
[05:47] <Phirephly>    file; backup in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.20080516234701" and drops back to the command line.
[05:47] <Joe_> flannel how come other linux dist. you have to do a clean install if you want a new version and Ubuntu you don't?
[05:48] <pkundu> ok thanks
[05:48] <m1r> Phirephly: b4 that part chevck for advanced option and there u should edit that modes manualy
[05:48] <Flannel> Joe_: I have no idea
[05:48] <dschulz> alecwh: ok, I see this article I mentioned has a topic "Running CGI scripts anywhere in your domain"
[05:49] <Xcell> Joe_ these cats write the song...others cut it short
[05:49] <alecwh> dschulz: link me?
[05:49] <tj1515>  i'm trying to get emerald working properly when i start my computer it uses the default ubuntu theme to get emerald i have to alt+f4 and type emerald --replace this fixes the problem till the next restart
[05:49] <Joe_> thats so cool ubuntu makes it great to upgrade easily
[05:49] <nitro> tj which version?
[05:49] <tj1515> 8.04
[05:50] <Shootfast> tj1515, you can install advanced settings for compiz and add the line under the window decorations box
[05:50] <dabbill> any one know how to make dvd95 make ISO's that are readable by windows / DVD players?
[05:50] <mschoolbus> whats windows?
[05:50] <Phirephly> m1r: It's asks me if it wants me to use the kernel framebuffer device interface, and no matter what I choose, it sends me to the keyboard stuff. At the very end, it asks for Keyboard options, but after that, it just throws me back to console.
[05:50] <m1r> hmm
[05:50] <nitro> why not use compiz?
[05:50] <m1r> Phirephly: uwhat card u got ?
[05:50] <Amaranth> Phirephly: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow xserver-xorg
[05:50] <psykrol1> Hello, everyone, I would be grateful for some help. I have a problem with either wine or compiz or both. I installed the new version of wine while running compiz and it didn't seem to be working. I hear that there are compatibility issues with the two so I tried to figure out how to disable compiz without uninstalling. i couldn't figure it out so I just disabled ever option individually. Now, I don't know what to do. My windows for every application are
[05:51] <tj1515> i have the setting manager so i just add the "emerald --replace"
[05:51] <Xcell> ok..ive got myself in enough trouble...have a good day folks. god bless..and spread the (Ubuntu) word...thanks.
[05:51] <Phirephly> Intel GMA960
[05:51] <Zaiden> I converted my little brother to xubuntu :D
[05:51] <Amaranth> psykrol1: that got cut off
[05:51] <Phirephly> Amaranth: No difference.
[05:51] <Amaranth> psykrol1: your windows for every application are what?
[05:52] <psykrol1> not visible
[05:52] <Phirephly> Does it matter that I'm running from Wubi?
[05:52] <psykrol1> now I've uninstalled both compiz and wine, no help
[05:52] <techqbert> dmsuperman: I think filedupe in the freebsd repos has the functionality I want.  It keeps a list of all files ever encountered with md5/file size and checks against the list on every pass-through.  That's what I need.  It compiles on linux-machines too.
[05:52] <Amaranth> psykrol1: how are they not visible? completely gone? white?
[05:52] <tj1515> Shootfast: i'm in window decoration what do i do
[05:52] <psykrol1> I see the background
[05:52] <nitro> did you have wine working?
[05:53] <Amaranth> tj1515: there is an option to put a command in, it has 'compiz-decorator' in it now
[05:53] <psykrol1> no
[05:53] <Amaranth> tj1515: put 'emerald' in there instead
[05:53] <psykrol1> it never worked right for me
[05:53] <psykrol1> just installed new version
[05:53] <reya276> how can I remove postfix and all the config files?
[05:53] <Shootfast> tj1515, go down to window decoration
[05:53] <Phirephly> BRB, Gonna go Googlize.
[05:53] <m1r> reya276: apt-get remove --purge (package name)
[05:53] <nitro> wine and compiz should not coflict
[05:53] <Shootfast> tj1515, and under command, change that to emerald
[05:54] <dschulz> reya276:  sudo aptitude purge postfix
[05:54] <Shootfast> tj1515, sorry, "emerald --replace"
[05:54] <psykrol1> that's not what the winehq channel says across the top
[05:54] <nitro> what are u trying to do with wine?
[05:54] <nitro> ohh
[05:54] <psykrol1> I was going to try to run games, but I never got that far
[05:55] <nitro> friend was running both today
[05:55] <psykrol1> so does anyone know how I can get my windows back?
[05:55] <psykrol1> please help!
[05:55] <sho1995> hi guys
[05:56] <psykrol1> I wonder if I reinstall compiz if it will reset
[05:56] <mschoolbus> psykroll - windows cd ?
[05:56] <psykrol1> lol
[05:56] <m1r> psykrol1: this isnt really windows support chanell :)
[05:56] <sho1995> lol
[05:56] <psykrol1> no, the actual title bar and frame of every window for every application is not there
[05:56] <sho1995> having issues with wifi
[05:57] <m1r> psykrol1: alt+f2 , then type : metacity
[05:57] <nitro> which game are you trying to install?
[05:57] <pavs> how do I convert *deb files to *rpm?
[05:57] <psykrol1> I'm talking about programs running in Ubuntu 8.04
[05:58] <mschoolbus> what gpu ?
[05:58] <Flannel> pavs: Why would you need to?
[05:58] <psykrol1> yeah
[05:58] <someguy> hey, so I just upgraded my ubuntu distro to the newest falcon whatever and went above compiling the development environment. I was able to remove the errors in the odcctools and properly set the environment variables. The whole environment compiled with no errors. I went to recompile some code I had previously unchanged and now the first error is an unknown gcc compiler error by one of the mac headers
[05:58] <sho1995> speeds are slow  5mb/s but connections is like 90%
[05:58] <psykrol1> title bar gone
[05:58] <m1r> psykrol1: alt+f2 , then type : metacity
[05:58] <psykrol1> very sad
[05:58] <pavs> flannel just an academic question no actual purpose
[05:58] <Flannel> someguy: You mean Intrepid Ibex?
[05:58] <psykrol1> mlr, what does that do?
[05:59] <mschoolbus> you dont need title bar, hold alt and drag window by anything :P
[05:59] <Flannel> someguy: er, sorry.  Hardy Heron. That's a bird.  Not an Ibex.
[05:59] <someguy> Flannel: version 8.04
[05:59] <bolivar> Hello everyone.  Through my own absentmindedness I deleted the MBR from my flash drive.  It has all of my sermons on it and I would really like to recover the information.  What tool would restore the MBR without destroying the rest of my data?  I would really appreciate help with this.
[05:59] <Qster> has anyone had the problem of firefox maximizing past the top bar? and covering the bottom bar?
[05:59] <sho1995> any one on my wifi issue?
[06:00] <nakedgoat> what bottom bar ;)
[06:00] <mschoolbus> shol - not on your wifi atm, some other neighbor's
[06:00] <someguy> I just wondering that although the online documentation I could find says people can get it to compile by removing a warnings in odcctools make file and changing how to assign an environment variable does it actual work after
[06:00] <psykrol1> alt f2 won't do anything. That's the run command, right?
[06:00] <m1r> _yes
[06:00] <someguy> it being the development environment
[06:00] <psykrol1> it won't open
[06:01] <m1r> hmm
[06:01] <sho1995> may be video card driver issue Qster
[06:01] <psykrol1> yeah, nvidia 8800
[06:01] <m1r> psykrol1: can u open terminal
[06:01] <psykrol1> it's open
[06:02] <robotic> Could someone help me apply the SSH patch for Ubuntu?  I'm running 6.10 and I want to make sure I'm not affected
[06:02] <m1r> psykrol1: can u open terminal and type : metacity --replace
[06:02] <robotic> My reposistory gives me version 1:4.3p2-8ubuntu1.2
[06:02] <psykrol1> Window manager warning: Screen 0 on display ":0.0" already has a window manager; try using the --replace option to replace the current window manager.
[06:03] <Snake_> hi
[06:03] <someguy> anyone successfully compiling previously working code using ubuntu 8.04?
[06:03] <robotic> However, I see on the web that the latest version is 1:4.3p2-8ubuntu1.3
[06:03] <mevsthevoices> Hi all
[06:03] <jtld> I am looking for the best chatline for GPartED
[06:03] <psykrol1> oh, ic
[06:03] <psykrol1> mucho gracias!
[06:03] <sho1995> hi
[06:03] <robotic> Is there a way to get install Ubuntu 7.04 repostiory files on a 6.10 machine?
[06:03] <psykrol1> hey, run works too
[06:04] <sho1995> help with wifi
[06:04] <psykrol1> sweet
[06:04] <m1r> psykrol1: all ok ?
[06:04] <psykrol1> tyvm mlr!
[06:04] <m1r> psykrol1: can u logout / login to check ?
[06:04] <jtld> robotic: To go from 5 to 6 I just edited the mirrors listed in sources.list file
[06:04] <psykrol1> don't need reboot?
[06:04] <robotic> jtld: did it cause you any problems?
[06:04] <m1r> psykrol1: ctrl+alt+backspace
[06:05] <Flannel> !upgrade | robotic
[06:05] <kajo> Hey, I can't find any information on minimizing my installation of ubuntu right now... I am running fluxbox on an ubuntu install, and I want to delete all the programs it comes with that I don't use (thunderbird, for one example). I can't find an easy way to do this, to just 'delete programs I don't want'.
[06:05] <jtld> robotic: it worked like a charm - Suse on the other hand sucks for that.
[06:05] <BradG> d
[06:05] <m1r> kajo , check for minimal ubuntu on forums
[06:05] <BonezAU> halo
[06:05] <BradG> hello
[06:05] <BonezAU> ich di nit argan
[06:06] <kajo> mlr, are you talking about doing a server install?
[06:06] <Rat409> !de | BonezAU
[06:06] <m1r> kajo , yes
[06:06] <jtld> robotic: change the distro names in the entire file and then run apt-get update followed by apt-get dist upgrade
[06:06] <m1r> kajo , cleanest way imo
[06:06] <psykroll> mlr, same problem again
[06:06] <Flannel> kajo: Either start with a CLI version from the alternate CD, or if you want to remove everything Ubuntu installed, follow these steps: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purexfce  only don't do the install of xubuntu desktop (at the end of that line)
[06:06] <m1r> psykroll: yes i thought so
[06:06] <robotic> jtld: thanks; I'm just trying to update SSH to avoid the vulnerability so I don't think it'll be a problem
[06:06] <jtld> robotic: I recommend that you back up first and backup sources.list first.
[06:07] <m1r> psykroll: do you use compiz ?
[06:07] <BonezAU> wie installieren Ubuntu
[06:07] <robotic> jtld: I can always switch the sources back after
[06:07] <robotic> jtld: thanks mucho
[06:07] <Flannel> jtld, robotic, it's recommended you use update manager instead of manual editing and such, it's safer.
[06:07] <kajo> flannel, thanks.
[06:07] <psykroll> I was, but I just uninstalled it
[06:07] <Xorg> I cant seems to access the manual help on fopen / fprintf / feof are they missing in ubuntu ?
[06:07] <BonezAU> zu installieren, wie Ubuntu, ich bin erfahren groCes Problem. kann jemand mir bitte helfen?
[06:07] <Flannel> !de | BonezAU
[06:07] <robotic> Flannel: Update manager lists 213 updates.  I'm scared it'll break something at this point :)
[06:08] <BonezAU> Flannel: Danke
[06:08] <Mba7eth> hey guys got something weird ... when i restart i can get the login screen; once i login, a terminal show up and that's it ? nothing else is loaded ....
[06:08] <kajo> Flannel, so that will remove all of my software, but leave my fluxbox untouched?
[06:08] <Flannel> BonezAU: bitte
[06:08] <m1r> psykroll: it is simple thing , but i forgot how i fixed it, to make it short, your "metacity" dont start at boot. sry i had few beers :(
[06:08] <jtld> Flannel: I am updating remotely without using a GUI.
[06:08] <Flannel> jtld: That's fine, there's a CLI version of update-manager as well
[06:08] <jtld> Flannel: What is the command?
[06:08] <Mba7eth> i log my gdm completely and other drivers are not loaded also
[06:08] <Flannel> kajo: It'll remove everything that Ubuntu installed, which may include some programs you use, but you can reinstall them later
[06:08] <Mba7eth> please help
[06:09] <Flannel> jtld: update-manager-core I believe, its in the upgrade notes
[06:09] <m1r> psykroll: u need somehow to set that meatcity loads at boot, i think i just added to "sessions" new entry metacity, but not sure
[06:09] <Mba7eth> i can't connect to the internet with it now
[06:09] <kajo> flannel, that's exactly what I wanted, thanks. :D
[06:09] <rich_freecomm> hehe! The way you get more people from Windows to Linux is if you can operate a linux box while intoxicated...then you know you are onto something
[06:09] <robotic> Flannel: is there any risk that running the update manager will futz my existing system?
[06:09] <Xorg> why my ubuntu doesnt support fopen / fprinf /feof / strncmp ?
[06:09] <jtld> Flannel: Thanks - Hey do you know GPartED fairly well?
[06:10] <psykroll> sessions?
[06:10] <Mba7eth> hey guys got something weird ... when i restart i can get the login screen; once i login, a terminal show up and that's it ? nothing else is loaded ....
[06:10] <Flannel> robotic: Upgrading between versions is inherently more dangerous than not, but its fairly stable.  You *dont* want to just grab a package from a newer version though, that's bad.  Update-manager lists 213 updates without changing your sources.list?
[06:10] <Phirephly> So, I'm looking into editing my xorg.conf manually since I am unable to use the dpkg-reconfigure to access the video resolution settings. Though, I don't want to mess that up. Can I get some help?
[06:10] <Flannel> robotic: update-manager is also used to do regular updates as well, not just in between releases.
[06:10] <kajo> Flannel, this won't remove terminal commands (programs), will it?
[06:10] <m1r> psykroll: system>preferences>sessions if i recall right
[06:10] <Phirephly> I want to add 1440x900 to my resolution list.
[06:11] <SeaPhor> psykroll, type name to who you are talking to so they see you
[06:11] <Flannel> kajo: Anything that's installed in ubuntu-desktop, but I can't think of anything, no.  Most of that stuff is in ubuntu-standard
[06:11] <m1r> psykroll: but that is not the right way to solve that problem
[06:11] <Myrtti> Mba7eth: you're logging into "failsafe terminal" session
[06:11] <robotic> Flannel: Yes, the sources.list is what it's always been; I've just never updated anything except when something broke, on a program-by-program basis from the command line
[06:11] <m1r> tnx SeaPhor
[06:11] <Flannel> robotic: Well, thats probably why.  Do a full upgrade, you're worried about ssh, but you've got countless other security updates waiting.
[06:11] <Myrtti> Mba7eth: when you get into the login screen, there's a button called "sessions", press that and pick the kind of session you like"
[06:11] <psykroll> oic System/Preferences/Control Center and then sessions
[06:11] <Mba7eth> Myrtti: no the normal one .... even failsafe doesn't work
[06:12] <bjron> hmm, it seems I get no sound when pulse audio (or autodetect) is selected, but alsa works - any ideas what might be wrong?
[06:12] <Flannel> robotic: If you don't want to use update manager, `sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade` will accomplish the same thing
[06:12] <jtld> anyone on GPartED??
[06:12] <Flannel> !anyone | jtld
[06:12] <SeaPhor> m1r, np, wish i could help more
[06:12] <robotic> Flannel: thanks!  does sudo-apt-get update execute an update on everything, or just update my repository data?
[06:12] <Myrtti> Mba7eth: login screen as in terminal or login screen as in graphical?
[06:13] <Mba7eth> Myrtti: as graphical
[06:13] <tv7497> xcell ; flannel : sir in bum usplash utility is idel
[06:13] <psykroll> err
[06:13] <m1r> SeaPhor: :)
[06:13] <Flannel> robotic: the update grabs new repository data, the dist-upgrade will grab the most recent versions of everything.  (dist-upgrade does not mean you're upgrading your release)
[06:13] <BradG> kjg
[06:13] <jtld> Okay - sorry - How long should a resize take over a Raid 5 with three disks? Running two AMD 2400s and the disks are SCSI about the same age.
[06:13] <m1r> psykroll: type name of person who u address. hard to follow you this way
[06:13] <Myrtti> Mba7eth: so you've already tried to press the sessions button and pick the gnome/kde/xfce session and you still get to the failsafe session?
[06:13] <robotic> Flannel: Great, thanks; I will do that and hope it doesn't break anything
[06:13] <Phirephly> I'm viewing xorg.conf as a text file and the only thing I have is "Section "Device" //  Identifier "Configured Video Device" // Option "UseFBDev" "true"" How do I go about adding a resolution to my video device?
[06:14] <Joe_> what a good dvd player app for ubuntu?
[06:14] <psykroll> mlr, so we're stumped?
[06:14] <m1r> psykroll:
[06:14] <m1r> psykroll: no
[06:14] <tv7497> joe_: vlc is good
[06:14] <Joe_> tks
[06:14] <Mba7eth> Myrtti: yes .... only  a terminal apears without any other thing
[06:14] <Phirephly> joe_: I also recommend VLC
[06:14] <Joe_> tks
[06:14] <m1r> psykroll: go to session and there add "metacity"
[06:14] <m1r> vlc power :)
[06:15] <psykroll> mlr: I thought you just said that won't work
[06:15] <Phirephly> m1r: Is that like an uprising?
[06:15] <Myrtti> Mba7eth: are you on ubuntu, kubuntu or xubuntu?
[06:15] <Mba7eth> Myrtti: ubuntu
[06:15] <psykroll> mlr: or I'm losing it
[06:15] <m1r> Phirephly: joke :)
[06:15] <Phirephly> m1r: Someone should start it, then :P
[06:15] <m1r> psykroll: that is solution, but not the "right" way
[06:16] <m1r> Phirephly: :)
[06:16] <dabbill> what programs do some of you use for DVD backup / compressing from DVD9 to DVD5
[06:16] <tv7497> mlr : sir in bum my usplash utility is idel any way of making it work
[06:16] <Myrtti> Mba7eth: there's something wrong with your settings, do you remember with what you were fiddling around before this started to occur?
[06:16] <Joe_> is there a good dvd ripper for ubuntu?
[06:16] <m1r> tv7497: didnt understand ?
[06:16] <psykroll> mlr I chose add and gave the name metacity, what goes in command or comment?
[06:16] <Phirephly> Can someone assist me in getting alternative resolutions in my xorg.conf without an nvidia card?
[06:16] <mschoolbus> his bum has an uplash
[06:16] <Myrtti> Joe_: vlc can do that too but I'm sure there are "better" options
[06:17] <m1r> Joe_ it is called backup software :)
[06:17] <m1r> psykroll: metacity ?
[06:17] <Joe_> yep for backup :)
[06:17] <Rat409> m1r: bum= boot-up-manager methinks
[06:17] <Phirephly> Does DVD Decrypter have a linux port?
[06:17] <tv7497> mlr : in  my bootupmanger my splash screen option is not working there is a dash b4 it
[06:17] <m1r> yes Rat409
[06:17] <Mba7eth> Myrtti: I'm sure i did do any changes on the sitting .... i was browsering then my box just hang then i restart and the problem all came out

[06:17] <Myrtti> Mba7eth: do you have access to the said computer now?
[06:18] <Mba7eth> yes
[06:18] <Mba7eth> Myrtti: I'm at the login screen now
[06:18] <QuasarRichter> I DESTROYER YOU ALL!!!!!!!!!!
[06:18] <Myrtti> Mba7eth: type df -h and check that there's home there
[06:18] <koheleth> whats the command to install the adobe pdf reader please
[06:18] <Rat409> Phirephly: if you have installed nvidia-xconfig run it if not sudo apt-get install providing you have an nv or nvidia driver
[06:18] <Phirephly> Rat: I'm not using an nvidia card.
[06:19] <tv7497> koheleth : dude pdf reader must be aldready threr in ur system i guess
[06:19] <Tankado> How can i fetch C development functions into ubuntu? (i already managed to get the man pages)

[06:20] <Myrtti> Mba7eth: that's what I suspected
[06:20] <Phirephly> Rat: My xorg doesn't have that subsection so it needs to be manually configured. As of now, it looks like I need to add a subsection to [Section "Screen"], but I'm unsure of what to have for Depth and Viewport.
[06:20] <pretender> how do you install live in gutsy
[06:20] <tv7497> myrtti : i bet document reader is better than adobe rght ???????/

[06:20] <Myrtti> tv7497: not always, it depends on user's needs
[06:20] <kajo> Flannel, when I try to run that giant command, I get errors.
[06:20] <Starnestommy> Tankado: they're C functions, not commands
[06:20] <Mba7eth> myrtti: but i didn't partition my box at all ... all directories are in one partition
[06:21] <m1r> psykroll: can u install compiz back ?

[06:22] <Joe_> do you need a high end computer to run Ubuntu?
[06:22] <fouad> johny-b-goode,  sudo su -
[06:22] <Myrtti> Mba7eth: well.
[06:22] <Madpilot> Joe_, not really
[06:23] <johny-b-goode> Madpilot: for apt-get and other basic stuff....
[06:23] <Starnestommy> Joe_: an average one can usually run ubuntu
[06:23] <tv7497> joe_:nope dude
[06:23] <Myrtti> fouad: eeeep, wrong answer
[06:23] <dabbill> Joe_, dont need a high end computer to run any linux
[06:23] <psykroll> mlr: still no
[06:23] <Joe_> nice
[06:23] <m1r> joe_ , aat least 500mhz 128 ram :)
[06:23] <Mba7eth> myrtti: any other clue ?
[06:23] <johny-b-goode> fouad: ok so basically just use sudo su - but there isn't a root user?
[06:23] <Madpilot> johny-b-goode, use sudo - see the stuff Myrtti had the bot send you
[06:23] <Myrtti> johny-b-goode: read the messages ubottu sent you
[06:23] <Joe_> i have a few old cpu sitting around
[06:23] <Starnestommy> johny-b-goode: "sudo command" is the same as "command" as root
[06:23] <Madpilot> ubottu, root | johny-b-goode
[06:23] <fouad> johny-b-goode, yep there is a root user
[06:23] <kajo> Joe_, ubuntu is an excellent choice for old computers...
[06:23] <Joe_> my concern with ubuntu, is i am not sure how to set up the partition?
[06:24] <kajo> Joe_, especially fluxbuntu.
[06:24] <Phirephly> Wubi it :P
[06:24] <tv7497> ubottu : dude little bit help needed regarding splash screen
[06:24] <johny-b-goode> fouad: thanks. I was able to sudo su - and then just passwd and set a root pass. It just feels better knowing what the pass is. :)
[06:24] <Myrtti> Mba7eth: so how about "ls -lah /home"?
[06:24] <Phirephly> tv7497: ubottu is a bot.
[06:24] <m1r> joe_ , set it do automaticly pick size ;)
[06:24] <fouad> johny-b-goode, if you want to do something with the root privileges ,, you can do "sudo dmesg" as an example
[06:24] <Flannel> johny-b-goode: Don't do that.  There was no password before, the root account was locked.
[06:24] <Myrtti> johny-b-goode: UH-OH
[06:24] <johny-b-goode> fouad: of course, never to login as root for browing online but just to know what the pass is. :)
[06:24] <Madpilot> johny-b-goode, seriously, there is no need to do that. Ubuntu is designed to use sudo + user's pw...
[06:24] <tv7497> phirephly : bott???????????
[06:24] <johny-b-goode> Myrtti: :)
[06:24] <Myrtti> johny-b-goode: that wasn't a good idea
[06:24] <Joe_> m1r: thanks it does a good job when picking that?
[06:25] <kajo> Flannel, I got errors running that giant block of code
[06:25] <Starnestommy> johny-b-goode: you have just hade it easier for people to crack into your computer
[06:25] <johny-b-goode> Madpilot: yeah I noticed that. I just always have the habit of having the root password set to something .....
[06:25] <tv7497> phirephly : sir i dont know what is a bot
[06:25] <Mba7eth> Myrtti: i got my user folder there
[06:25] <Madpilot> tv7497, ubottu is an IRC script, a robot of sorts
[06:25] <kajo> I pasted them on paste.ubuntu.com, though I'm not sure how that works...
[06:25] <m1r> joe_ it picks what it thinks is best for pc
[06:25] <Starnestommy> tv7497: it's a program, not a person
[06:25] <kajo> @Flannel
[06:25] <fouad> johny-b-goode, now that you set a password for root , you are a little bit more vulnerable
[06:25] <Flannel> kajo: After you paste, and hit submit, you copy the URL of the page you're redirected to to here
[06:25] <tv7497> madpilot :oh!!!!!!!
[06:25] <m1r> joe_ , not that all like it... :)
[06:25] <Madpilot> tv7497, ubottu is also the most intelligent thing in the channel, but no matter :)
[06:25] <johny-b-goode> Starnestommy: don't worry it's not avaialble to the outside world. It's a home computer behind NAT. There is not translateable path to it unless request goes out via NAT. :)
