[00:00] <ubuntu> komputes: SATA
[00:01] <ad> hi , is there a BrainStorm developer here !?
[00:01] <JoCo> How do I install the flash plugin for firefox?
[00:01] <ikonia> JoCo: install the package flashplugin-nonfree
[00:01] <komputes> ubuntu: try quiting gparted and getting bacxk into it through a terminal by running "sudo gparted"
[00:01] <ikonia> JoCo: you can do that through your favourite package manager
[00:01] <bazhang> Aruza, what about modprobe ide-disk what does that return
[00:01] <djhash> http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash
[00:02] <ikonia> djhash: has, thats not the suggested way of installing
[00:02] <ad> where can i get help for ubuntu.brainstorm.com
[00:02] <ubuntu> komputes: Done. No diffrence.
[00:02] <JoCo> ?
[00:02] <ikonia> djhash: that would casue issues outside the package manager
[00:02] <bazhang> ad just sign up no help needed-->just a brain ;]
[00:02] <Aruza> bazhang: nothin except a new prompt
[00:02] <ikonia> JoCo: open your package manager (normally synaptic) and install the package flashplugin-nonfree
[00:02] <bazhang> Aruza, okay good
[00:02] <ad> bazhang, i need Dev-Help
[00:03] <ikonia> ad: in what respect ?
[00:03] <bazhang> modprobe ide-generic Aruza
[00:03] <komputes> ubuntu: what does cfdisk show?
[00:03] <ad> ikonia,  i am installing brainstorming @ my local site and have issues
[00:03] <Aruza> bashang: now i have a few lines saying I/O resource not free and ports already in use
[00:03] <bazhang> ad ah sorry for the levity then
[00:03] <ubuntu> komputes: The truth, all of my partitions including the NTFS, FAT32, ext3 and swap
[00:04] <ad> bazhang,  is there a dev channel for ubuntu ?
[00:04] <ikonia> ad: what are the issues installing ?
[00:04] <bazhang> ad probably nothing to do with brainstorm though and not a support channel
[00:04] <komputes> ubuntu: we're talking about this one disk which gparted shows as unformated
[00:04] <ad> ikonia, i have problems customizing on a local domain other than ubuntu one
[00:04] <ikonia> ad: can you expand on that ?
[00:04] <ubuntu> komputes: That we are
[00:05] <fde> ad: your topic would be off topic for that... if you're talking about a program, please see if they have support setup
[00:05] <ikonia> ad: where did you get the source for brainstorming ?
[00:05] <Creationist> I am trying to get my backup of my FF2 settings from Feisty to work with FF2 in Hardy.  But after purging Firefox from Hardy and installing Firefox 2, I copy my backup of ~/.mozilla/ to my home directory.  When I start Firefox, all my bookmarks are there and the extensions are listed, but none of them work.  This has worked perfectly with other upgrades... what am I missing?
[00:05] <komputes> ubuntu: ha, what does cfdisk show concerning this one disk which gparted shows as unformated
[00:05] <ad> ikonia,  there is a howto site in the wiki , i am off for a smoke , will be right back
[00:05] <ikonia> Creationist: define non work
[00:06] <kitche> Creationist: that the ubuntu firefox is not the standard firefox from their site most likely
[00:06] <komputes> Creationist: has this .mozilla dir been used in FF3?
[00:06] <Creationist> ikonia: Well, they're listed in the Add-Ons window, but they have no options under Tools,
[00:06] <babolat> hello
[00:06] <Aruza> bazhang: now i have a few lines saying I/O resource not free and ports already in use
[00:06] <nubbie_> Creationist: why not just reinstall all of the plugins manually? ie. delete the contents of the plugins folder within ~/.mozilla and install them one by one from mozilla's site. there isn't much effort involved.
[00:06] <Creationist> komputes: No.
[00:06] <ikonia> Creationist: not all the plugins / addons work in ff3
[00:06] <kbrosnan> Creationist: delete your extensions.rdf from ~/.mozilla/firefox/...
[00:06] <Creationist> nubbie_: I have about 20 of them :)
[00:06] <bazhang> Aruza, I saw that still looking for a solution hang on
[00:07] <Creationist> ikonia: I know... I've never used Firefox 3 with this .mozilla/ directory.
[00:07] <Aruza> bazhang: kk =)
[00:07] <ubuntu> komputes: All partitions on the disk
[00:07] <ikonia> kitche: firefox3 beta is the beta from the mozilla site, packaged for ubuntu
[00:07] <komputes> Creationist: did you remove FF3 before purging firefo*?
[00:07] <kitche> ikonia: umm ok not sure what that has to do with FF2
[00:07] <Creationist> komputes: Yes, I did.
[00:07] <ikonia> kitche: ok, firefox2 is firefox from the mozilla site
[00:08] <komputes> ubuntu: ok, reinstall FF3 and FF2 and then follow the instructions i gave you
[00:08] <Creationist> komputes: But again, this entire /.mozilla/ directory is from a backup... a totally separate heirarchy of the tree so it wouldn't have been touched by FF3.
[00:08] <komputes> since you removed and didn't purge FF3, you system still thinks your FF2 is FF3 and it will b buggy
[00:08] <ubuntu> komputes: What's FF2 and FF3?
[00:08] <kbrosnan> Creationist: please find and delete your extensions.rdf from your firefox profile folder
[00:08] <komputes> Creationist: I understand what happened
[00:08] <ikonia> ubuntu: firefox 2 and version 3
[00:08] <komputes> sorry
[00:08] <komputes> that was a msg for Creationist
[00:09] <ubuntu> komputes: Thought so, it was a little irrelevant :P
[00:09] <Creationist> kbrosnan: I don't have one under /.mozilla/
[00:09] <komputes> ubuntu: can you post a screenshot of them side by side gparted/cfdisk?
[00:09] <ubuntu> komputes: http://static.pici.se/pictures/cIrJoyaMP.png
[00:09] <ubuntu> komputes: Way ahead of you
[00:09] <komputes> ha
[00:09] <dnlacero> hello, having trouble to automount my sony digital camera via usb, i just revert to the 'full speed' mode (slower) by unloading ehci_hcd, but i still have the camera unmounted, any idea? by the way lsusb shows the camera on one usb port..
[00:10] <hostname> someone has to work aicrack with the intel 4965
[00:10] <kbrosnan> Creationist: in one of the subfolders? ~/.mozilla/firefox/profiles/...
[00:10] <komputes> ubuntu: :O
[00:10] <ubuntu> komputes: I too am surprised.
[00:11] <crunchybumble> question : somehow windows sh@t all over my ubuntu install
[00:11] <crunchybumble> i've never experienced this
[00:11] <babolat> crunchybumble: how so
[00:11] <Creationist> komputes: So I reinstalled FF3, then purged firefo*.  Now I should be able to reinstall firefox-2 and then copy my backup .mozilla/ over, right?
[00:11] <Y-Town> I cannot get the talkd daemon to run on one of my  laptops.... is there a way to see if its running or start it?
[00:11] <crunchybumble> but i recovered some lost partitions on a couple of old IDE drives
[00:11] <kindofabuzz> since i can't browse the network using Thunar, what can i use?
[00:12] <crunchybumble> (to do this, i had to get a new drive, SATA, and load some ubunutu flavour on it
[00:12] <dnlacero> question:hello, having trouble to automount my sony digital camera via usb, i just revert to the 'full speed' mode (slower) by unloading ehci_hcd, but i still have the camera unmounted, any idea? by the way lsusb shows he camera on one port..
[00:12] <Creationist> On that note, why WAS beta software chosen to be installed by default into an LTS version?  Seems VERY anti-user friendly...
[00:12] <crunchybumble> then run testdisk against my partition table
[00:12] <crunchybumble> which worked great
[00:12] <JoCo> ikonia, it says I have the latest version but nothing that uses flash in firefox works :/
[00:12] <JoCo> it is greyed out with a play button on it
[00:12] <crunchybumble> but when I booted off of those recovered drives, something ... for lack of better term happened
[00:12] <bazhang> Aruza, what is the exact error message you get (or something close) that drops you into busybox shell
[00:12] <ikonia> JoCo: what version / platform are you using ubuntu on
[00:12] <ikonia> 8.04/32bit ?
[00:12] <babolat> !repeat | dnlacero
[00:12] <kbrosnan> JoCo: uninstall the flashblock extension
[00:13] <komputes> Creationist: it worked for me
[00:13] <babolat> dnlacero: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=725301
[00:13] <crunchybumble> and now windows boots off of my SATA device, which never had windows loaded on it
[00:13] <JoCo> ikonia, 8.04
[00:13] <kindofabuzz> Creationist: talking about FF?  because it's very close to final release and over 16000 bugs have been fixd since firefox 2
[00:13] <ikonia> JoCo: 32bit ?
[00:13] <JoCo> ikonia, yea
[00:13] <komputes> ubuntu: ok i'm looking
[00:13] <bazhang> Creationist, you have made your displeasure clear; either try the solution I offered or move on thanks
[00:13] <soundray> JoCo: have you restarted firefox?
[00:13] <JoCo> i dont have the flashblock extension
[00:13] <ikonia> JoCo: you've not installed flashblock
[00:13] <JoCo> soundray, yea
[00:13] <Creationist> bazhang: Using a different application isn't exactly a solution, it's a workaround :)
[00:13] <ikonia> JoCo: you just installed the flash plugin - thatsi t
[00:13] <komputes> kindofabuzz: "very close" isn't it end of july?
[00:13] <crunchybumble> i haven't access to another device, but just what in all get out could have happened
[00:13] <JoCo> No i have had it installed
[00:13] <Creationist> bazhang: Thats like telling someone to use Exaile instead of Amarok when their Amarok is buggy.
[00:13] <dabbill> any one have problems with gmount in Hardy? I wont do any thing for me, doesnt even give any error messages.
[00:14] <ikonia> JoCo: you've got flash block installed ?
[00:14] <bazhang> Creationist, nonetheless carping about it now wont fix it thanks
[00:14] <babolat> crunchybumble: it's going to be easier for the people in this room if u put all those detail in one message u know
[00:14] <JPSman> Hey, what does the guided partition slider MEAN?
[00:14] <JoCo> ill check 1 sec
[00:14] <Aruza> bazhang: i dont see an error it goes right from the Ubuntu loading screen into the shell
[00:14] <kindofabuzz> komputes: not for sure, but ff 3 b5 is much better than stable firefox 2
[00:14] <Creationist> bazhang: I was just curious about the decision, that's all.  kindofabuzz answered it for me.
[00:14] <komputes> ubuntu: do you get the same error from the live CD? This is on Hardy 8.04 or Gutsy 7.10?
[00:14] <starcannon> dnlacero I'm not sure with a Sony camera, but if your just wanting to get the pictures off of it, I reccommend using a card reader, I have an old junker camera here that won't work right in Ubuntu, but I can pull the flash card out of it and get the stuff off of it that way
[00:14] <JoCo> I dont have flashblock installed but I do have ubuntu firefox modifications 0.5
[00:14] <komputes> kindofabuzz: FF2 more stable, therefore what i use
[00:15] <sectech> Just a general question... Is there such a things as a removal blacklist? Where synaptics or update-manager won't be allowed to remove a package?
[00:15] <kindofabuzz> komputes: 3b5 faster, less buggy
[00:15] <ubuntu> komputes: Same problem on LiveCD 8.04 and installed 8.04
[00:15] <djhash> Aruza: type exit or ctrl+d in busybox and it'll tell you what error it encountered
[00:15] <ikonia> JoCo: can you give me a url of a site that is failing please.
[00:15] <komputes> kindofabuzz: less buggy? have you seen launchpad?
[00:15] <Aruza> bazhang: i found it, had to load recovery, ALERT! /host/ubuntu/disks/root.disk does not exist
[00:15] <dnlacero> thanks starcannon and babolat
[00:15] <JPSman> Heya, I am installing linux and need help with partitioning?
[00:15] <starcannon> sectech theres something called pinning your system
[00:15] <bazhang> Aruza, okay you need to reboot wubi, and then enter the grub menu and add that (e to edit the kernel it will boot) all_generic_ide to the end of the boot parameters (near quiet, splash, etc) then d then b to boot
[00:15] <kindofabuzz> komputes: over 16000 bugs have been fixed since firefox 2
[00:16] <starcannon> sectech which accomplishes what your talking about
[00:16] <JoCo> any site like digg.com the ad in the upper right is grey with a play button on it
[00:16] <sectech> starcannon, I am trying to triage a bug... I never heard of a removal blacklist
[00:16] <djhash> JPSman: whats up
[00:16] <fde> sectech: it is possible, /j #debian-bots and /msg dpkg hold
[00:16] <JoCo> and when i click it it loads
[00:16] <dabbill> any one have problems with gmount in Hardy? I wont do any thing for me, doesnt even give any error messages.
[00:16] <kindofabuzz> yes there are new bugs but..
[00:16] <JoCo> but video and sound doesnt work
[00:16] <dnyy> err, i had vista on one partition & ubuntu on another.  instead of uninstalling ubuntu like i should have, i just deleted the partition. now, when i try to boot, it gets stuck on 'loading grub, please wait..'  is there a way to get rid of grub or what? :<
[00:16] <fde> sectech: It won't let you talk to the bot unless you're in one of the debian channels though...
[00:16] <kindofabuzz> komputes: try the nightlys
[00:16] <crunchybumble> point. i've dispowered the IDE devices, and booting solely from the SATA device, to which I've never installed windows, is booting XP. I don't know how this could have happened I didn't copy over the partition table. I copied over some of the data off of corrupted/lost ext2/3 partiitons. But I have no idea how I got windows over this install. Has anyone ever seen anything like this, and is there a way to read the partition table from w
[00:16] <ikonia> JoCo: and installing the flashplugin-nonfree package is the ONLY way you've tried to install flash. yes/no ?
[00:16] <starcannon> I've only pinned out a system once though, so I'd be terrible to walk through, maybe someone here knows how if not, thats what you want to search google for or the www.ubuntuforums.org
[00:16] <Creationist> komputes: Oh well...same issue.
[00:16] <djhash> dnyy: Boot from Vsta DVD/CD and do a repair
[00:16] <JPSman> djhash: what does the Guided slider MEAN?
[00:17] <kindofabuzz> anyone know how to browse the network using Thunar??
[00:17] <dnyy> djhash alright, thanks. :]
[00:17] <bazhang> dnyy, you plan on reinstalling ubuntu? or is this going to be windows only for you from now on
[00:17] <LadyNikon> can anyone see me?
[00:17] <ikonia> LadyNikon: sure
[00:17] <JPSman> djhash: is it the space ubuntu will use?  or what?
[00:17] <dnyy> i'm reinstalling ubuntu
[00:17] <nubbie_> dnyy: create a grub installation floppy and reinstall it. it should detect your windows installation. if I were you i would have just left grub. make sure you install grub to the MBR.
[00:17] <JoCo> ikonia, no previously when i started firefox for the first time it asked me to install the flash plugin and there were 3 options and i think I clicked the wrong one, the 3rd one down
[00:17] <darek> jest
[00:17] <ryanakca> Why is it that opening "http://www.google.com" in Firefox takes minutes, while going 'telnet google.com 80' followed by 'get index.html' takes a fraction of a second?
[00:17] <bazhang> dnyy, the reinstall will fix grub
[00:17] <darek> are you girl
[00:17] <babolat> !grub | crunchybumble
[00:18] <starcannon> yeah reinstall to fix grub is over kill, just run grub from the live cd
[00:18] <JoCo> I want to get back to that menu if thats possible
[00:18] <agro1987> help: i've downloaded the .deb and all the required .exe for msttcorefonts. Now, how do I do an offline install?
[00:18] <nubbie_> darek: does that matter?
[00:18] <ikonia> JoCo: please close all firefox windows, and in a shell do the following "sudo apt-get remove --purge flashplugin-nonfree && sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree"
[00:18] <bazhang> ryanakca, you have tons of rss feeds and/or extensions? that might be a factor
[00:18] <komputes> kindofabuzz: improvements in development yes, but many are buggy. Personally I had issues with FF3 and flash. check out https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox-3.0, many open bugs...
[00:18] <djhash> JPSman: yes.. how much of the Harddrive to use for the new OS
[00:18] <dnyy> yeah but also, when i go to reinstall, it won't resize the partition
[00:18] <crunchybumble> @ubottu, but I didn't reinstall, that's the damndest thing
[00:18] <cgentry72> I am trying to use a projector but the projector keeps saying "searching" is there anything I need to do special for it to work?
[00:18] <kindofabuzz> ryanakca: check your dns server
[00:18] <dxdt> ryanakca: there are reports floating of a new ffox bug.  For me the bug makes ffox basically useless.  You might want to try installing epiphany and seeing if that gets there quickly and stuffs.
[00:18] <cgentry72> I am using Ubuntu Hardy
[00:18] <ryanakca> bazhang: RSS feeds, no. And its only that page, the rest are fine... *looks at extensions*
[00:18] <bazhang> dnyy, just install on the partition you deleted
[00:18] <zyx386> how can i fix this error http://ubuntuusers.de/paste/212483/  ?
[00:18] <dnyy> bazhang it's all one partition now :x
[00:18] <komputes> Creationist: that's really bizzare, have you thought about starting from zero, just importing bookmarks?
[00:18] <Gerinych> my num/caps/scroll lock lights don't light up in ubuntu but they do in vista
[00:19] <martiner_33> tomcat+java(JSP) anybody can help?

[00:19] <bricenow> somebody can help me out.... how to record a cd witdh ubuntu 5.04
[00:19] <bazhang> ryanakca, that is odd, www.google.com/ncr loads fine here
[00:19] <Fishscene> lol
[00:19] <djhash> dnyy: If you are re-installing you can do Manual in partition...
[00:19] <JPSman> djhash: the smallest it goes is 50 gigs, I want to only 10
[00:19] <Creationist> komputes: That's what I've resorted to doing... just a pain because I routinely use about 20 extensions :)
[00:19] <Creationist> I'll also lose all my saved passwords.
[00:19] <Requim> Maybe this is an ignorant question, but if I run Ubuntu from the live CD, and if I make changes to the system, how does Ubuntu keep track of any changes during the session if it can't write to the Live CD? Or is it simply not possible to make any changes that require writing to the disk?
[00:19] <djhash> JPSman: Slide it down.. how small do you want the partition to be?
[00:19] <nubbie_> zyx386: you're going to need to include more information if you hope to solve that.
[00:19] <kindofabuzz> ryanakca: i bet it's your dns servers
[00:19] <bazhang> dnyy, then it will resize the partition for you and fix grub
[00:19] <dnyy> bahzang i can try, i don't know much about it ;o
[00:19] <dabbill> any one have problems with gmount in Hardy? I wont do any thing for me, doesnt even give any error messages.
[00:19] <zyx386> nubbie_, and how?
[00:19] <Creationist> Requim: Any changes you make are lost when you reboot.
[00:19] <djhash> JPSman: use the manual option
[00:20] <dnyy> ah, well ill go to it. thanks :]
[00:20] <martiner_33> clear
[00:20] <cgentry72> I am using Ubuntu Hardy
[00:20] <bazhang> dnyy, the installer will do it
[00:20] <cgentry72> I am trying to use a projector but the projector keeps saying "searching" is there anything I need to do special for it to work?
[00:20] <nubbie_> Requim: changes are written to RAM, and are therefore temporary.
[00:20] <crunchybumble> @requiem, i think it keeps it all in RAM, right?

[00:20] <Requim> Creationist, nubbie: OK, but what if I try to download and install a program for that session? Is it all done in RAM?
[00:20] <ubuntu> komputes: Will do

[00:20] <starcannon> Requim there are ways to save your sessions, but I haven't messed with them, sounds like you might be ready to go a step further and try a wubi install perhaps
[00:20] <djhash> cgentry72: if you have a monitor and a projector, you might need to tell ubuntu to search for new monitors in the screen resolution settings
[00:20] <Creationist> Requim: ALL done in RAM, yes.

[00:21] <djhash> JPSman: first of all.. are there data on the drive you don't want to lose?
[00:21] <nubbie_> martiner_33: unless you have a problem with ubuntu you're in the wrong channel.
[00:21] <ikonia> lmosher: I don't think that sounds like an IRQ issue
[00:21] <fde> lmosher: A better place to start would be to look into jack... 'apt-cache show jackd'
[00:21] <Prez00> i am on hardy and all look great, now, using tracker i look for stuff and only get back email hits, no document hits
[00:21] <Creationist> How do I run rm on the results of find?
[00:21] <JPSman> djhash: yeah
[00:21] <kindofabuzz> ryanakca: try it in safe mode
[00:21] <lmosher> fde, I'm running jack. It was on #jack that the suggestion game :)
[00:21] <martiner_33> why in wrong channel .. this channel is about ubuntu right?
[00:22] <babolat> cgentry72: and Fn + F5 or something didnt work?
[00:22] <starcannon> Requim or maybe a thumbdrive install would be to your benefit, lets you have a bootable drive with you, and save your stuff to it.. probably about a dozen ways to skin your particular cat
[00:22] <Requim> nubbie, starcannon: So will Ubuntu automatically look for any available "swap space" and use it? Or do I have to set up something like that?
[00:22] <nubbie_> Prez00: how long have you been running hardy? it takes time for tracker to build it's databases.
[00:22] <cgentry72> babolat, that rebooted by computer for some reason
[00:22] <nubbie_> Requim: yes, it's all automatic.
[00:22] <djhash> JPSman: Do not use the installation partition.. any drive you do direct partition on you will LOSE ALL DATA...

[00:22] <komputes> Creationist: the live cd can't save, if you make changes, you can make changes to your mounted hard disk files but not changes to the cd, i.e. if you install an app it is only in ram, so once you reboot it is gone
[00:22] <ubuntu> komputes: Seems a little overkill. But I guess I'll have to do it. Thanks alot for the help!
[00:22] <zyx386> can every one tell how can i fix this problem?
[00:22] <ikonia> lmosher: are you running the real-time kernel ?
[00:22] <djhash> i dont think the partitioner in ubuntu install preservesthe data
[00:23] <bazhang> Aruza, what other partitions do you have and what format are they in or just the vista one
[00:23] <nubbie_> Prez00: did you set up tracker to monitor your home directory?
[00:23] <martiner_33> nubbie_: why in wrong channel? this channel names ubuntu ..yeah?
[00:23] <Prez00> nubbie_: it's checked
[00:23] <JPSman> djhash:how do I create a new partition then?  I am not seeing the option
[00:23] <kindofabuzz> anyone know a program so i can browse my network.  i use Thunar and it doesn't have that ability
[00:23] <babolat> cgentry72: well check this -->http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-78570.html tell me if u need help with it
[00:23] <Aruza> bazhang: i do have vista installed also and thats ntfs
[00:23] <Creationist> How do I delete all files found by "find?"  I tried piping rm into the find search, but that just gave a syntax error for rm.
[00:23] <komputes> Creationist: that's dangerous but use xargs. find _______ | xrags rm <options>
[00:23] <lmosher> ikonia, I was informed that if I change my /etc/security/limits.conf to allow audio applications access, it would be OK. I tested kernel 2.6.22-14-rt, but it doesn't work with my system (you might remember me, my system is fussy about the kernel.. or perhaps the other way around)
[00:23] <bazhang> Aruza, hmm that is odd
[00:23] <Requim> nubbie: So Ubuntu will automatically look for some sort of swap drive on my HD and use it without telling me? I like to know what's going on behind the scenes. :)
[00:23] <cgentry72> babolat, ok
[00:23] <bricenow> Cdrecord-Clone 2.01a38   somebody can use this ????  i just tried so much without success.....
[00:23] <ryanakca> kindofabuzz: same issue. And, Konqueror
[00:23] <Prez00> nubbie_: could it be a problem with old tracker stuff, from previous version?  should I just re-index everything?
[00:24] <komputes> ubuntu: i'm still looking and thinking of opening a bug, are you on launchpad?
[00:24] <nubbie_> Prez00: you can induce tracker to refresh it's databases from the command line... i just don't know how off the top of my head. in a terminal type "trackerd --help" and i think it may have more information for you.
[00:24] <dabbill> how can i mount ISO's in linux? Gmount doesnt seem to work in Hardy x64
[00:24] <LjL> Creationist: "find" has a -remove or -delete (not sure what it's called) option
[00:24] <djhash> Aruza: do ls /dev/disk/by-uuid and see how many entries are there
[00:24] <LjL> Creationist: otherwise, use -exec
[00:24] <ikonia> lmosher: yes, I'm stilling looking at that issue
[00:24] <lmosher> ikonia, When I ran the realtime kernel I got no audio or networking. Don't know why.. didn't fuss with it, I just rebooted P
[00:24] <zyx386> this ERROR http://pastebin.com/m16c2ef5b
[00:24] <jurek> jak
[00:24] <ikonia> lmosher: I was wrongly maybe under the impression you needed the rt kernel to use jack properly
[00:24] <ubuntu> komputes: I think so. Achoth is the nick (if I am there).
[00:24] <ere4si> !iso | dabbill
[00:24] <nubbie_> Prez00: try reindexing. if that doesn't work i don't know what will.
[00:24] <Creationist> LjL: That did it... it was -delete.  Thank you.
[00:24] <agro1987> help: i've downloaded the .deb and all the required .exe for msttcorefonts. Now, how do I do an offline install?
[00:24] <s3a> imagemagick seems to have a limit on how many pages a pdf can have for it to convert it to multiple jpegs...how can i disable this limit? cuz i have a skool book in many many pages as a pdf file and want it as jpegs so i can study on my psp
[00:24] <Y-Town> .
[00:24] <djhash> JPSman: Ok.. you want to shrink a partition and leave yourself 10Gigs for Ubuntu.. right?
[00:24] <kindofabuzz> ryanakca: i'm not gonna install another file manager just to browse the network, especially not one that starts with a K =)
[00:25] <ryanakca> kindofabuzz: as you wish
[00:25] <JPSman> djhash: yeaup :OD
[00:25] <lmosher> ikonia, I've read that before, but the #jack people said it was ok just specifically enable audio apps to adjust their own niceness
[00:25] <kindofabuzz> there's gotta be an actual program or something
[00:25] <marik> anyone got dmraid set up and working?
[00:25] <ikonia> lmosher: thats never been my understanding of it, but I'm sure the jack guys know better
[00:25] <marik> dmraid -ay doesn't produce errors for me, but it doesn't do anything either. output here: http://rafb.net/p/zqGufW93.html
[00:26] <Creationist> kbrosnan: I found the extensions.rdf files and removed them.  That did the trick... thank you!
[00:26] <JPSman> djhash: ya know what?  screw it.  I'll go with 50 gigs
[00:26] <nubbie_> s3a: I don't have the solution to your question, but i have a solution that will get you the results you want. you can use that pdf editor to split it into several files, and then use imagemagick.
[00:26] <djhash> JPSman: You can download a CD/USB image called "Parted Magic".. boot from it, and resize your partitions in the HDD just like PartitionMagic (if u've ever used it)
[00:26] <dabbill> ere4si, thanks
[00:26] <JPSman> djhash: THANK YOU for your help so far
[00:26] <ere4si> np
[00:26] <komputes> ubuntu: try to register launchpad.net, i can't find you...
[00:26] <Requim> nubbie: I mean how does Ubuntu determine what is swap space or a swap partition on my HD? Couldn't it accidentally use my Windows partition for swap space? I would like to have some control if it is going to use my HD without me knowing it.
[00:26] <Aruza> bashang and djhash: i got it working, aparently vista marks partitions if it isnt shutdown correctly and that was causing the problem, i restarted vista and shutdown and it worked
[00:27] <ubuntu> komputes: Alright
[00:27] <ikonia> Requim: you tell it to in guided/manual mode
[00:27] <djhash> Aruza:.. glad it worked..
[00:27] <djhash> works*
[00:27] <lmosher> ikonia, Any tips on getting the rt kernel up and running? i've heard it does wonders.. I'd love to use it, it just won't boot. Don't get why, it's the same version as my existing setup
[00:27] <djhash> JPSman: just make sure you dont end up losing files you need..
[00:27] <ikonia> lmosher: I've been working that through for about 6 hours now (on/off) for you
[00:27] <nubbie_> Requim: swap space is a specially formatted (or non-formatted if you want to be technical) space which ubuntu finds at boot time. you can also use "swapon /dev/hdx#" to use additional swap space.
[00:28] <nubbie_> Requim: where /dev/hdx# is a swap partition.
[00:28] <ikonia> nubbie_: technicall /dev/hdX doesn't exist anymore
[00:28] <crunchybumble> @nubbie - does that open the entire device as swap?
[00:28] <JPSman> djhash: if I go with the guided slider, then it won't erase important files right?
[00:28] <bricenow> hey people.... somebody can give me at least a web adress to find the basic steps on linux ??/
[00:28] <komputes> ubuntu: do you have specifications on the hard disk? brand, make/model
[00:28] <nubbie_> ikonia: if you use sata that is.
[00:28] <ikonia> bricenow: http://www.tldp.org
[00:28] <ikonia> nubbie_: no, if you use any harddisk
[00:29] <bricenow> thks ikonia
[00:29] <s3a> nubbie_: that might work :) thx...is the limit 200 pages?
[00:29] <lmosher> ikonia, I greatly appreciate your help there.. I think the realtime kernel is unrelated, though.. The kernel boots, but I don't get sound. The other kernels won't boot. I'm using the same version number, just -rt instead of generic.
[00:29] <ubuntu> komputes: I'm already registered, nick IS Achoth
[00:29] <marik> anyone got a raid going?
[00:29] <ikonia> nubbie_: libata referes to all disks as scsi
[00:29] <Alp`> hi there, i got a problem. i reinstalled hardy over gutsy today. and know i got a weird behaviour with maximized windows (compiz is enabled): every maximized and focused window randomly restores and maximizes again after almost each click in that window... result is a complete weirdness with constantly "moving" windows
[00:29] <nubbie_> ikonia: is that so? i thought it was just a sata tihng.
[00:29] <ikonia> marik: sure
[00:29] <stdin> there are some strange types of IDE that still shows as hdx, but it's not common
[00:29] <ikonia> nubbie_: used to be just sata, now all disk idea/sata/scsi/usb etc
[00:29] <ubuntu> komputes: Oh yes. Samsung SpinPoint 320gb
[00:29] <ikonia> stdin: only things like the old compaq controller that don't show as "disks"
[00:29] <marik> ikonia, dmraid?
[00:29] <nubbie_> s3a: i have no idea, i just know it's possible to split pdf files into several files of a set page size. then you can keep using the method you're currently using.
[00:29] <babolat> Alp`: try disabling compiz then reenabling it
[00:29] <bazhang> Aruza, okay, got a bit further-->can you check /proc/partitions
[00:29] <frogscott> hello has anyone here installed virtual box and knows which modules to install?
[00:30] <redd0t> hello
[00:30] <djhash> JPSman: the guided slider is just asking for how big you want the partition to be.. so it might re-partition the entire drive then give you what you want.. which means losing files..
[00:30] <Alp`> babolat: compiz --replace ?
[00:30] <crunchybumble> @swap space people -- you mean that it actually shows as hdX; that X wasn't a variable?
[00:30] <lmosher> ikonia, Don't worry about it I have to go for now anyway, I'll work on this issue later. It'll be here for me when I get back, heh :)
[00:30] <s3a> nubbie_: k, thx, at least u got me started for sumtin ;)
[00:30] <komputes> ubuntu: send me the url of your launchpad page so I can subscribe you
[00:30] <ikonia> marik: no, I strongly advise you not to use dmraid or "fake raid" due to poor linux support and a weak technology in general
[00:30] <ikonia> lmosher: not giving up on it
[00:30] <babolat> Alp`: nope.. just go restart it
[00:30] <starcannon> djhash doesn't gparted allow for non destructive partition resizing?
[00:30] <Alp`> babolat: how? sorry i dont know
[00:30] <marik> ikonia, and if i don't have hundreds of bucks to blow on a real raid?
[00:30] <SniZ> hi, in gnome 2.22 i see very useful improvement: transfer\copy\move window, which contains info about speed, any how many files. question: can it window write which file it copy and other infos?
[00:30] <redd0t> does anybody know of a good usb TVR that I can use with a laptop
[00:30] <ikonia> marik: software raid

[00:31] <fde> bricenow: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/newtoubuntu/C/index.html <-- might be what you're looking for.
[00:31] <marik> ikonia, well i've already got fake raid working and i want to keep those partitions. (a different distribution)
[00:31] <bazhang> redd0t, hardware?
[00:31] <marik> ikonia, for some reason, the problem seems to be with ubuntu
[00:31] <ikonia> marik: thats your decision to do so
[00:31] <djhash> starcannon: I think so.. but I usually do my own partitions using Parted Magic.. i dont know how the Guided Partitioning in the ubuntu install is setup.. never used it.. lol
[00:31] <zcat[1]> don't be fooled, 'dmraid' or 'fake raid' is just software raid, with none of the advantages of proper software raid...
[00:31] <ikonia> marik: it's not with ubuntu, the technology it's self is flawed
[00:32] <redd0t> bazhang: ? i need a tvtuner for a laptop. and i need dvr capabilities and such.
[00:32] <marik> ikonia, the problem is with ubuntu when it is the only distribution it doesn't work with
[00:32] <frogscott> hello has anyone here installed virtual box and knows which modules to install?
[00:32] <yowsh2> does anyone know where i can get alsa and NOT alsa-base?
[00:32] <starcannon> djhash gparted has a livecd out as well for setting up partitions apart from the ubuntu cd
[00:32] <bazhang> redd0t, best ask in #hardware
[00:32] <yowsh2> i am trying to manually up[date my alsa stuff but i need alsa and not alsa-base
[00:32] <redd0t> bazhang: i asked here b/c i need it to be supported in linux
[00:32] <komputes> ubuntu: in that case you nick is tobias-hultgren on LP and Achoth on the wiki
[00:33] <bazhang> !hcl | redd0t  try here then #hardware
[00:33] <djhash> starcannon: Parted Magic, uses gparted with a gui.. but also it allows you to mount partitions and move files around before partitioning etc.. and it has USB boot image too..
[00:33] <starcannon> djhash anyway wasn't sure exactly what the goal is, so just thought I'd throw that out there, gparted has a nice gui thats very easy to use
[00:33] <ikonia> djhash: gparted is a gui
[00:33] <Alp`> babolat:
[00:33] <cgentry72> Ok, I have video now on the projector but everything is all over the place and bunched up
[00:33] <starcannon> djhash nice, i'm gonna dl parted magic and check it out, had only used the gparted livecd up till now
[00:33] <ubuntu> komputes: Oh, I see, I specified Achoth on the install anyways
[00:33] <Alp`> babolat: i killed compiz and started it again, no change
[00:34] <nubbie_> cgentry72: use the screens utility to set the resolution.
[00:34] <babolat> Alp`: try restarting X then
[00:34] <Sirjames> can someone help me i can not figure out how to do the cube
[00:34] <cgentry72> nubbie_, I believe i have the output is not right at all. not like the resolution is off or something
[00:34] <komputes> ubuntu: the install has nothing to do with your web accounts, ok i found the bug and a solution
[00:34] <ubuntu> komputes: *registration, not install
[00:34] <djhash> i didnt know gparted was a gui.. lol.. i just saw parted magic and people mention that it has a gui for gparted so it got me confused.. lol
[00:34] <komputes> k
[00:34] <Reck> I am looking for some simple software to make a simple website with, just HTML, a pictures, and text.  anyone know any that runs on Ubuntu or GNU/Linux

[00:34] <SniZ> hi, in gnome 2.22 i see very useful improvement: transfer\copy\move window, which contains info about speed, any how many files. question: can it window write which file it copy and other infos?
[00:35] <ikonia> Reck: screem
[00:35] <bazhang> aruza you need to manually mount your windows partition by mount /dev/??? /root
[00:35] <ikonia> SniZ: do you mean can it write to windows disks ?
[00:35] <Reck> Thanks!
[00:35] <Reck> ikonia, thanks!
[00:35] <ubuntu> komputes: So what's the solution?
[00:35] <ikonia> Reck: no problem
[00:35] <SniZ> ikonia, no, info while i copy\move\deleting something
[00:36] <ikonia> SniZ: it has a status bar
[00:36] <starcannon> Sirjames you'll need to install advanced desktop settings from synaptics, then look around through its menu's its pretty straight forward, you'll need 4 desktops setup instead of the default 2 (just right click on the desktop switcher and bump it up to 4)
[00:36] <djhash> JSPman: Any form of partitioning has risks in it... you might get a power surge during it and loose the HDD.. etc.. kinda like surgery there is always a risk even though minimal.. The guided partition might not remove your data.. but its always better to be safe than sorry
[00:36] <ikonia> Sirjames: install the package "ccsm" it's a very easy tool to use
[00:36] <_polto_> liblivemedia is ultra out of date on ubuntu :(
[00:36] <bazhang> !ccsm | Sirjames
[00:36] <SniZ> yes, i know. but it only write speed, how many files arrived
[00:36] <munoz321> hi all
[00:36] <ikonia>  SniZ what info do you want ?

[00:39] <babolat> Alp`: crash? how so
[00:39] <Alp`> babolat: did you write anything?
[00:39] <Exteris> end-user, preferred applications
[00:39] <ikonia> marik: look at the kernel versions
[00:39] <ikonia> marik: it's not an ubuntu version
[00:39] <MagoonD> whats the best way for copying my gutsy system from an ibm laptop to a dell laptop?
[00:39] <komputes> ubuntu: next time you see me, let me know if the workarround works...

[00:39] <marik> ikonia, i'm sorry?
[00:39] <end-user> Exteris: Thank you! But Firefox is no longer listed there. The drop down list only has "custom" in it
[00:39] <ikonia> marik: the bug is with the kernel
[00:39] <Alp`> babolat: i clicked on a channel in konversation when suddenly the login screen appeared...
[00:39] <fde> SniZ: Gnome has time based releases, so they were trying to rush out the first version in time for feature freeze, rather than making it better for the end user I'm afraid.
[00:39] <ikonia> marik: look at the versions fedora 9 are using
[00:39] <nubbie_> MagoonD: install ubuntu on the new laptop and copy over your /home directory.
[00:39] <Exteris> end-user, use custom then, with firefox
[00:39] <ajonat> MagoonD, clone the system?
[00:39] <SniZ> fde, tnx
[00:39] <ubuntu> komputes: Will do!
[00:40] <nubbie_> ajonat: that would not be wise.
[00:40] <MagoonD> ajonat, no i think nubbie_ has the right idea
[00:40] <babolat> Alp`: i dont think that had anything to do with what we were doing..
[00:40] <ubuntu> komputes: Thanks again for the help
[00:40] <MagoonD> nubbie_, just the /home directory nothing else?
[00:40] <user___> If I set ubuntu up to be a thin client server, can my clients connect to it w/o it being the dhcp server?
[00:40] <end-user> Exteris: Custom is selected, with the command firefox -new-tab "%s"
[00:40] <marik> well it works in 2.6.23 and 2.6.24 in other distros.  i'm on the hardy livecd right now, which is 2.6.24, and it doesn't work
[00:40] <Alp`> babolat: me neither. i'm trying to ignore it :)
[00:40] <komputes> ubuntu: or you can post your result to that bug, i'll subscibe...
[00:40] <ikonia> marik: which 2.6.23 distro ?
[00:40] <marik> gentoo
[00:40] <nubbie_> MagoonD: /home has all of your information. when you install ubuntu create a separate partition for your /home folder.
[00:40] <ikonia> marik: quite heavily patched
[00:40] <babolat> Alp`: did u get my msg when i said try restarting X?
[00:41] <Exteris> end-user, that should work
[00:41] <MagoonD> nubbie_, ok
[00:41] <Alp`> babolat: no, i could test that now
[00:41] <Alp`> just a sec
[00:41] <babolat> Alp`: yes pls
[00:41] <nubbie_> MagoonD: there is also a program which will make a list of all packages installed. you can then use that list to create an identical system.
[00:41] <ikonia> marik: you can always add your information/details to the bug report to help get it fixed
[00:41] <ikonia> marik: the more info the better
[00:41] <MagoonD> nubbie_, any chance you know the name of that package?
[00:41] <ubuntu> komputes: Yeah, I'll post in that thread when I've fixed the problem/failed
[00:41] <ksoviero> is there a way to burn a cd in 2 drives simultaniously?

[00:43] <user___> How does one create an ubuntu thin client boot cd
[00:44] <nubbie_> user___: you could set up a server and netboot.
[00:44] <user___> I know how to do PXE boot but the pc in question does not support this
[00:45] <ikonia> user___: you'd have to make your own bootcd, basiclly containing the info you want to boot - and thats it, but as it's a think client you'd be better with netbooting

[00:45] <ikonia> ksoviero: offtopic for this channel
[00:45] <ksoviero> no, i was wondering is anyone had one?
[00:45] <ikonia> ksoviero: offtopic for this channel
[00:45] <ikonia> yes
[00:45] <zyx386> how can i fix this fehler http://pastebin.com/m7e6d448b
[00:45] <zyx386> ??
[00:45] <ksoviero> ok, sorry
[00:45] <ikonia> ksoviero: thanks
[00:45] <nubbie_> user___: i'm sure there are some very small linux distributions which could netboot regardless of whether or not your motherboard supports it.
[00:46] <user___> ikonia: nubbie_ ok, I'll be honest. The reason I can't do it is because I don't have the ability to make the central pc a dhcp router, so basically I need a decent way around that issue
[00:46] <ikonia> user___: do a minimal install
[00:46] <ikonia> user___: rather than booting it
[00:46] <nubbie_> user___: what problems are you having with DHCP?
[00:46] <zyx386> everyone help???????+
[00:47] <nubbie_> user___: perhaps somebody could help you solve the DHCP issue.
[00:47] <ikonia> !patience | zyx386
[00:47] <ikonia> nubbie_: happy to
[00:47] <djhash> zyx386: missed your problem.. whats ur problem?
[00:47] <Alp`> hmmm
[00:47] <user___> nubbie_: not unless they can insert an extra nic card in my pc and run ehternet wires in my house :)
[00:47] <bazhang> zyx386, what is pygame
[00:48] <zyx386> djhash, that is http://pastebin.com/m7e6d448b
[00:48] <ksoviero> is there a "talk about anything" area?
[00:48] <Alp`> babolat: no change
[00:48] <user___> I just need a way of telling my PC to load a netboot image from a desktop pc rather than expecting a dhcp response
[00:48] <bazhang> !ot | ksoviero
[00:48] <ikonia> user if your not on a lan, how do you expect to use a thin client ?
[00:48] <babola1> Alp`: got disconnected
[00:48] <zyx386> bazhang,  is with this software "svn2swf" screerecording
[00:48] <nubbie_> ikonia: an interesting and valid question :P
[00:48] <Alp`> babola1: no change, didnt work
[00:49] <bazhang> !screencast | zyx386  try these
[00:49] <babola1> Alp`: one momenty
[00:49] <crunchybumble> wait. so hollup. it takes xp 10 gigs to install, and ubuntu can run off the live disk in RAM
[00:49] <crunchybumble> wtf mate?
[00:49] <user___> ikonia: I'm on a lan but my ltsp-server isn't the dhcp server, it is simply another client
[00:49] <djhash> zyx386: have you setup a password for the computer ur VNCing to?
[00:49] <ikonia> !wtf | crunchybumble
[00:49] <nubbie_> crunchybumble: yeah basically.
[00:49] <ikonia> user___: it dosn't have to be "the" dhcp server, any box can be a dhcp server
[00:49] <xbj9000> if I have kubuntu, and want to also add xfce/xubuntu, what is the best way?
[00:49] <ikonia> user___: it just needs a valid ip
[00:49] <user___> ikonia: oh
[00:49] <zcat[1]> xp needs 10 gigs? I'm sure I've installed it in 4 or less
[00:50] <zyx386> bazhang, that is not new for me
[00:50] <nubbie_> crunchybumble: it's because linux programs use library linking instead of building the libraries into each program.
[00:50] <babola1> Alp`: u there?
[00:50] <zcat[1]> vista probably needs 10 gigs
[00:50] <albuntu> xbj9000: apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[00:50] <user___> well, in that case, how does it figure out where to load the image from, does it just check all connected computers?
[00:50] <zyx386> djhash, what you mean?
[00:50] <Alp`> babola1 yes
[00:50] <bazhang> xbj9000, install the desktop xubuntu or kubuntu-
[00:50] <xbj9000> thanks albuntu
[00:50] <nubbie_> xbj9000: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[00:50] <babola1> Alp`: go to System -> Preference -> Advanced Desktop Effects Settings -> General Options -> Display Settings
[00:50] <crunchybumble> @nubbie. I thought thats what .DLLs were
[00:50] <marik> ikonia, all info i have is nearly duplicate of the info that's there. i would just be wasting their time making them read it. the configurations are the same.
[00:50] <ikonia> user___: you have a pxe server offering the boot image (which acts as a boot server), but you use the dhcp info to assign an address and point at the pxe server
[00:50] <ikonia> marik: no problem
[00:50] <djhash> zyx386: try to vncviewer to the computer you're trying to vnc2swf to...
[00:51] <nubbie_> crunchybumble: you're right, except i believe many windows executables build the DLLS into the exe itself.
[00:51] <Alp`> babola1: ok i'm there
[00:51] <zcat[1]> PXE booting requires a DHCP server.. and the DHCP server tells it what binary to load as well as things like IP and DNS addresses
[00:51] <babola1> Alp`: Uncheck "Detect Outputs"
[00:51] <user___> ikonia: hmmm, ok
[00:51] <Alp`> babola1: it's already unchecked
[00:51] <babola1> Alp`: it was *already* unchecked or u have unchecked it?
[00:52] <zyx386> djhash, i ihave no vncviewr
[00:52] <babola1> Alp`: it was *already* unchecked or u have just unchecked it now?
[00:52] <sevillian> a
[00:52] <jaffarkelshac> does anyone know of citrus, the alarm program for windoze, is there seomthing similar for ubuntu
[00:53] <nubbie_> jaffarkelshac: cron
[00:53] <babola1> Alp`: u there? crash again?
[00:53] <djhash> zyx386: stupid question: do you have a vnc server installed on the computer you are trying to connect to?
[00:53] <sevillian> ds
[00:53] <ikonia> jaffarkelshac: it's called "windows" please show it the respect by calling it by it's proper name
[00:53] <nubbie_> jaffarkelshac: you can also set up alerts in evolution.
[00:53] <Sirjames> were in synaptics do i find advanced desktop setting
[00:53] <bazhang> english please sevillian
[00:53] <ikonia> Sirjames: thats not in synaptic
[00:53] <jaffarkelshac> i can call it what i want
[00:53] <scottwebber> i had made changed to xorg earlier and it stated that a backup was made. Where is this backup and how do i restore it?
[00:54] <ikonia> Sirjames: thats in systme --> prefernces
[00:54] <Alp`> babola1: yes, again :(
[00:54] <Alp`> babola1: ubuntu hardy seems to be more unstable
[00:54] <babola1> Alp`: it was *already* unchecked or u have just unchecked it now?
[00:54] <babola1> Alp`: not from where i am ;)
[00:54] <nubbie_> jaffarkelshac: type this in: /msg ubottu etiquette, and then leave the channel if you choose not to obey the rules.
[00:54] <jaffarkelshac> nubbie_: i forgot, i can use cron to execute a audio file, cheers
[00:54] <Sirjames> i got to install it first right now i don't have it
[00:54] <Alp`> babola1: already unchecked, couldnt make a change
[00:54] <zyx386> djhash, if you dont understand the Q, dont answer plz, i say vnc2swf is screenrecording program not vncviewr, also
[00:54] <jaffarkelshac> stop making fuzz ok
[00:55] <babola1> Alp`: ok.. what's your screen resolution set to right now?
[00:55] <crunchybumble> @jaffarkel**** that's my alarm clock, dude
[00:55] <ikonia> djhash: a google search shows it as a player as you suggeted also
[00:55] <zcat[1]> scottwebber: /etc/X11/xorg.conf.1 or similar.. you just copy it back to /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[00:55] <sevillian> ahmad' :are you there?
[00:55] <ikonia> jaffarkelshac: please, just show things respect
[00:55] <Alp`> babola1: i have 2 outputs, because of dual screen twinview. overall resolution is 3200x1200
[00:55] <bazhang> zyx386, please be polite
[00:55] <djhash> zyx386: vnc2swf is a recording tool to record VNC connection sessions.. you need VNC to use vnc2swf
[00:55] <scottwebber> zcat[1], thank you so much :)
[00:55] <babola1> Alp`: do they have different resolutions?
[00:55] <nubbie_> jaffarkelshac: free speech does not apply in this channel. follow the rules.
[00:55] <Bodsda> calm down guys
[00:56] <bazhang> Bodsda, ;]
[00:56] <Alp`> babola1: no, two similar monitors
[00:56] <Bodsda> bazhang, takin after you dude ;~)
[00:56] <djhash> zyx386: atleast a VNC server should be used on the computer you are connecting to.. even if it is the same computer you wan to record..
[00:56] <babola1> Alp`: what's Outputs showing?
[00:56] <gaten> anyone using hardy having trouble with firefox crashing *alot* when flash is present on a page?
[00:57] <nubbie_> gaten: "meeee!!!"
[00:57] <ikonia> gaten: various people have reported that
[00:57] <babola1> gaten: YES
[00:57] <Alp`> babola1: 1600x1200+0+0 and 1600x1200+1600+0
[00:57] <bazhang> gaten yes is an adobe bug see this-->http://markusthielmann.com/blog/defusing_one_most_annoying_bugs_ubuntu_hardy_heron_stop_flash_killing_firefox
[00:57] <nubbie_> gaten: provide us with solution to problem NAOW! heheh jk
[00:57] <babola1> Alp`: and Detect Outputes is *unchecked* ?
[00:57] <Alp`> babola1: yes it is
[00:57] <gaten> nubbie_, use opera
[00:57] <Wannabe> any one know why i can only get a 16 kb dl rate...? usually it's 600
[00:58] <Wannabe> on apt-get
[00:58] <nubbie_> gaten: opera is a dirty pos imo.
[00:58] <babola1> Alp`: try setting your monitors to 1600x1200 both
[00:58] <ikonia> Wannabe: busy repo
[00:58] <bazhang> Wannabe, security repo?
[00:58] <djhash> ikonia: they should've called it vnc2swfandviewer lol
[00:58] <zcat[1]> weird fault here; mobo boots up, does POST, detects drives.. but just won't boot. BIOS settings are correct, it won't boot from cdrom, I even swapped drives for a known good one..
[00:58] <Wannabe> ikonia, any way to fix?
[00:58] <ikonia> zcat[1]: not ubuntu
[00:58] <zcat[1]> true
[00:58] <nubbie_> zcat[1]: wow. that sucks.
[00:58] <ikonia> Wannabe: swap mirrors
[00:58] <ffm> Hey, anyone know how to convert a plain, formatted text PDF to DJVU?
[00:58] <ikonia> Wannabe: wait until it's less busy
[00:58] <Alp`> babola1: i dont understand, they already are both on 1600x1200.. as i said above. or didnt i get the point?
[00:59] <Wannabe> ikonia, still leaning, how do i swap the mirrors
[00:59] <ikonia> Wannabe: edit your /etc/apt/sources.list to point to another ubuntu mirror
[00:59] <nubbie_> Wannabe: you can also use the GUI in synaptic.
[00:59] <Wannabe> nubbie_, i'll try your idea one sec
[01:00] <babola1> Alp`: oh ok.. i misunderstood.. as far as i can see you've gotten it right already.. question: have u rebooted since enabling compiz?
[01:00] <gaten> nubbie_, it has a lot of problems, but so does ff. i just wish they would open source it
[01:00] <adred> hi all.. i messed up with my session settings. i just wanted to configure it because apps i autostart themselves each time i log in. now i cant access my desktop.i cant even right click on it. my wallpaper didn't load..help pls...
[01:00] <djhash> anyone having splash screen problem where the screen shows "cannot display resolution".. my menu.lst is set for vga=794 which is 1280x1024 which my screen can handle.. desktop views fine on that resolution..
[01:00] <Jack_Sparrow> Alp` I didnt think effects would run on dual monitors at that res for both.
[01:01] <Alp`> babola1: i did one time
[01:01] <Wannabe> nubbie_,  i
[01:01] <Flip2405> Is h00k here
[01:01] <Alp`> Jack_Sparrow: i used the same config in 7.10 before, it worked ok
[01:01] <babola1> Alp`: what gfx card do u have?
[01:01] <gaten> so was the firefox abode bug known before they released hardy?
[01:01] <Wannabe> nubbie_,  i'm tryng to get build-dep wine how would i get that in synaptic
[01:01] <Jack_Sparrow> Alp` at that res?  good to know.  That must be approaching max compiz can do
[01:01] <bazhang> gaten,  recent adobe 'fix'
[01:01] <Alp`> babola1: nvidia gforce 8800gts
[01:01] <Flip2405> h00k
[01:02] <adred> hi all.. i messed up with my session settings. i just wanted to configure it because apps autostart themselves each time i log in. now i cant access my desktop.i cant even right click on it. my wallpaper didn't load..help pls...
[01:02] <doug_> LadyNikon: you ready for the nvidia drivers?
[01:02] <bazhang> Flip2405, /msg h00k  hi
[01:02] <zChris> adred: dosent it make a new one if you delete the settings?
[01:02] <SeaPhor> Alp`, nice card ;-)
[01:02] <Alp`> Jack_Sparrow: yes, it's working fine. but that maximized windows problem is weird
[01:02] <nubbie_> Wannabe: do it in terminal: "sudo apt-get install build-dep wine
[01:02] <babola1> Alp`: should have no prob.. try sliding down your resolutions
[01:02] <gaten> bazhang, ahh i see. unfortunate timing
[01:02] <adred> zChris which settings?
[01:02] <nubbie_> Wannabe: that was wrong
[01:02] <Sirjames> i do i get the cube
[01:03] <zChris> adred: WindowsManager settings? :P
[01:03] <nubbie_> Wannabe: " sudo apt-get build-dep wine" there you go.
[01:03] <harksaw> When I start up the program "nzb" I get the message saying "unable to load unix openssl". I have openssl installed, does anyone know why I get this message and why I'm unable to make SSL connections?

[01:03] <adamb> Anyone seem to help me, having weird problems, I tryt i ping a host, and it hangs for 5-6 seconds, then it will reply once, then 5-6 seconds, it will reply again. but if I do a host/dig, it resolves instantly. No I can't seem to connect to a spefici host via ssh, but in vmware under windows I can connect fine.  so strange network problems.  Anyone have an idea on what this could be?
[01:03] <Alp`> SeaPhor: that's a nice story... got a 7800, which got broken after some months and then i got a 8800 as replacement. couldnt say no :)
[01:03] <LadyNikon> doug_: no.. i forgot that box has no cd driver
[01:03] <LadyNikon> and i got a research paper to write.. so i will have to do it later
[01:03] <LadyNikon> thanks
[01:03] <adred> zChris: in the compiz manager?
[01:04] <nubbie_> Wannabe: then get a faster internet connection.
[01:04] <Wannabe> nubbie_, lol, it's not my i net.
[01:04] <Flip2405> zzzz can some one help me with my sound i have noo clue what is going on it just sudenly stoped working it stoll works on some things others it dont
[01:04] <jit> hi I cant find the /etc/default/pcmcia file im trying to install iburst driver thanks

[01:05] <kitsuneofdoom> Rhythymbox won't play my ogg vorbis files anymore. It asks for the right codec. Just installed 8.04
[01:06] <cgentry72> my mouse stopped working today. after making changes to my resolution.  i can't fix it. can someone help.
[01:07] <^u^> kitsuneofdoom: if you double click the ogg file in nautilus does it try to install the codec?
[01:07] <babola1> Alp`: try what post number 2 here says -->http://forum.compiz-fusion.org/showthread.php?t=5144
[01:07] <frederific> I'm using 8.04 with compiz fusion. Somewhere in the compiz advanced config, I managed to set it to minimise all windows if I put my mouse in the bottom-right corner. However, now I can't find an option to deactivate this, any ideas?
[01:08] <harksaw> Actually it says "SSLFilter: unable to load unix openssl"
[01:08] <nubbie_> frederific: revert to default settings in compiz?
[01:08] <jit> HI just installed 8.04 and trying to configure iburst wireless modem, but I cant find the file /etc/default/pcmcia please help thanks
[01:08] <gaten> everytime i restart my computer, X goes into "low res mode", where the resolution is 648x480 and cannot be changed, and my nVidia Server Settings seems to think i don't have an nvidia driver installed. im using the binary drivers from nvidias sight, and i have to reinstall them after each reboot. any suggestions?
[01:08] <nubbie_> frederific: there is also another, simpler compiz configuration manager which displays visually what is connected to each screen edge.
[01:08] <babola1> frederific: ccsm should have a serch function that includes keywords for descriptions, function names and shortcuts
[01:09] <ikonia> gaten: use the restricted drivers provided by ubuntu
[01:09] <kitsuneofdoom> ^u^ tries to install the "bad" or "ugly" I forget. vorbis isn't in those. Plus it's already installed
[01:09] <adamb> Anyone seem to help me, having weird problems, I try to ping a host, and it hangs for 5-6 seconds, then it will reply once, then 5-6 seconds, it will reply again. but if I do a host/dig, it resolves instantly. Now I can't seem to connect to a spefici host via ssh, but in vmware under windows I can connect fine.  so strange network problems.  Anyone have an idea on what this could be?
[01:09] <starcannon> gaten add "nvidia" without the quotes to your /etc/modules list
[01:09] <cgentry72> my mouse stopped working today. after making changes to my resolution.  i can't fix it. can someone help.
[01:09] <ikonia> gaten: why did you install the drivers from nvidia.com ?
[01:09] <bazhang> gaten what about gksudo displayconfig-gtk
[01:09] <gaten> ikonia, i cant, i get no picture on boot, only sound
[01:09] <SeaPhor> gaten, try not using the site drvr, use the restricted drv in synaptic
[01:09] <gaten> ikonia, with those drivers
[01:09] <jit> anyone know about pcmcia in 8.04??
[01:09] <nubbie_> sounds like somebody's video card is broken...
[01:10] <frederific> babola1: Thanks. I've already tried that with a couple of relavent keywords, but I couldn't seem to find it...
[01:10] <Flip2405> can some one help me i am haveing a sound issue like it wont let me hear my music or anything but when i use whine to play games and shit it seems to work but useing pidgen or frostwire or any thing in that nature it dosnt work
[01:10] <Flip2405> I am willing to be vnced to
[01:10] <^u^> kitsuneofdoom: you might be missing some gstreamer stuff - I'd double click and let it do its' thing
[01:10] <nubbie_> Flip2405: you need to use winecfg to use mixing.
[01:10] <bazhang> !ohmy | Flip2405
[01:10] <kitsuneofdoom> ^u^: I did, it keeps asking
[01:10] <Alp`> babola1: i dont have that line because i'm using twinview instead of xinerama
[01:10] <gaten> starcannon, that sounds reasonable, ill try that thanks
[01:10] <beasty> mm
[01:10] <frederific> nubbie_: Ahha, why didn't I think of resetting to defaults? :) Where can I find this alternative config, is it just that desktop effects tab of Sys/Prefs/Appearance?
[01:10] <beasty> where is pykdeconfig.py ?
[01:10] <beasty> :p
[01:11] <beasty> in hardy ?
[01:11] <bitmouse> anybody have any experience with a minimal install??
[01:11] <starcannon> gaten any time, I use Nvidia cards alot, its a part of their driver install that has never been fixed, it should add it there by default I think, but it don't
[01:11] <kitsuneofdoom> ^u^: now it says "no package availiable"
[01:11] <kitsuneofdoom> ^u^: it's just ogg vorbis
[01:11] <bitmouse> anybody have any experience with a minimal install??
[01:11] <^u^> !ogg
[01:12] <Flip2405> nubbie no no my sound works inside wine
[01:12] <klutch240> can anyone help me figure out how to set up my wireless card.  Brand new to ubuntu.
[01:12] <gaten> starcannon, how annoying. did the ubuntu supported drivers work for you at all? i get no picture just sound on X boot, they have never worked for me (feisty, gusty or hardy)
[01:12] <nubbie_> Flip2405: that doesn't matter.
[01:12] <kitsuneofdoom> ^u^: but ogg vorbis isn't a restricted codec
[01:12] <bazhang> !wifi | klutch240
[01:12] <sevillian> hello
[01:12] <nubbie_> Flip2405: if wine isn't using mixing, it takes control of the sound device so no other program can use it.
[01:12] <Flip2405> My sound dont work outside of it
[01:12] <starcannon> bitmouse I'm doing my very first minimal install while i'm hangin out here, so far the only thing thats hard is my connection times out about every 3 packages and I have to click retry
[01:12] <Flip2405> oh
[01:12] <Flip2405> okay
[01:12] <kitsuneofdoom> ^u^: it worked until excatly when I upgraded to 8.04
[01:13] <klutch240> ubotto  thnx
[01:13] <jit> anybody have any experience with pcmcia??
[01:13] <mohamed_> how to enable sound for more than application at the same time, e.g e.g i can hear songs and chat alert at the same time ?
[01:13] <sevillian> how could i run movie  on ubuntu? which program i can by?
[01:13] <bitmouse> starcannon why is your text oranage?
[01:13] <churchill> i have a dlink g510 with (apparently) ralink rt61 chipset.. how can I use ndiswrraper to install drivers and use the damned card ?
[01:13] <bitmouse> sevillian get gxine
[01:13] <ricanelite> is there a application where I could compress my video file?
[01:13] <bazhang> sevillian, no need to buy ;]
[01:13] <starcannon> gaten, the ubuntu restricted drivers worked for me in gutsy, but I updated them anyway, I like to have the latest that nvidia has to offer, so I end up just killing the default ones an manually installing the NVIDIA*.run ones from their site
[01:13] <^u^> kitsuneofdoom: yeh upgrades can bork stuff sometimes and from the link ogg isn't so free...
[01:13] <gaten> starcannon, ahh k
[01:13] <^u^> !ogg | kitsuneofdoom
[01:13] <Flip2405> nubbie mind if i pm
[01:13] <ricanelite> i use gtk-recordmydesktop and the size is 40mb and I will like to resize the file size to something smaller
[01:14] <nubbie_> !sound | Flip2405
[01:14] <Daisuke_Laptop> ogg...  not free?
[01:14] <starcannon> gaten I never even bothered with the default ones in hardy, just went straight to nvidia.com and grabbed them. I have done so many nvidia card installs it only takes me 10 minutes now, including downloading the build essentials package
[01:14] <Flip2405> nubbie mind if i pm
[01:14] <Daisuke_Laptop> what world are you living in, just out of curiosity
[01:14] <kitsuneofdoom> ^u^: I looked at those links and it has no helpful information
[01:14] <crunchybumble> that fix for the flash crash on hardy is awesome
[01:15] <nubbie_> Flip2405: i would prefer you didn't, as any information between us should be available for the channel as a whole to use.
[01:15] <crunchybumble> btw, you volunteer folk rock
[01:15] <Daisuke_Laptop> Flip2405, please keep questions in the channel, that way the person you're talking to doesn't feel pressured, and also so others can answer.
[01:15] <gaten> starcannon, i prefer nvidia's drivers, but it annoys me that the default ubuntu ones don't work for me
 could it play media like which run on mediaplayer in windows?
[01:15] <^u^> kitsuneofdoom: I'll get an ogg file from my server and check here - give me a min
[01:15] <ToxicDrag> I'm curious, im planning on buildin a 64 bit computer, how is Ubuntu's 64 bit support?
[01:16] <Belboz93> Hey all, I'm not seeing a recently compiled module listed as available, I've compiled and installed it correctly, but I cannot load it because modprobe returns that it doesn't exist
[01:16] <starcannon> gaten in hardy I had read on the forums that unchecking them in the restricted driver manager then rechecking them, then rebooting will get them going, but I could download and install the latest ones in about the same amount of time ;P
[01:16] <wolfmanz> anyone know how i can see the boot messages you see when the hard drive does that scan disk thing before boot up is there a log that stores these messages after each bootup?
[01:16] <Flip2405> Nubbie its kinda personal
[01:16] <bazhang> Flip2405, he said no
[01:16] <kitsuneofdoom> Since I upgraded to 8.04, my ogg vorbis collection stopped working in rhythymbox and tootem. Rhythymbox asks for the codec. I have all gstreamer codecs installed. Audacious works, but I like Rhythymbox.
[01:17] <cgentry72> my mouse stopped working after changing my resolution. i changed my resolution back but it still doesn't work.
[01:17] <starcannon> gaten I put together a guide in a text file if you want it. its to big to post here it would flood, but i can mail it or post it in a private channel real quick
[01:17] <mikeooooo> anyone dualbooting ubuntu, xp, vista on a raid 1 drive  array partitioned for the os's?
[01:17] <Belboz93> cgentry72: check your Xorg.conf
[01:17] <gaten> starcannon, have at it
[01:17] <amenado> cgentry72-> do you still have a copy of the older xor.conf ? compare the two
[01:17] <frederific> starcannon: you could pastebin it...
[01:17] <cgentry72> Belboz93, what do i look for?
 O the movie is just rin sound not the film it self?
[01:17] <crunchybumble> belboz93 what should you be lookin' for
[01:17] <amenado> cgentry72-> do you still have a copy of the older xorg.conf ? compare the two
[01:18] <gaten> frederific: no! its all mine!
[01:18] <TalibJayid> what is the root password for live 8.04 by handy?
[01:18] <Flip2405> zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz well i dont know how to set wine up on a mixer
[01:18] <cgentry72> amenado, i restored it and it still doesnt work
[01:18] <starcannon> frederific i'll do that, brb with the link
[01:18] <Belboz93> cgentry72: /etc/X11/xorg.conf, look for mouse drivers and configurations, it might be easier to just reconfigure xserver though
[01:18] <amenado> cgentry72-> are you sure you restored from the old working one?
[01:18] <xim> when ever i get notifications from programs, i use a dark theme, and they come up bright yellow with white text impossible to read, is there any way to change that, a stylesheet maybe?
[01:18] <Belboz93> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:19] <cgentry72> amenado, i cut and pasted it into the oringinal cause i didn't know how else to do it
[01:19] <amenado> TalibJayid-> no such thing..you just do  a sodu -s
[01:19] <TalibJayid> you mean sudo?
[01:19] <amenado> cgentry72-> well thats not restoring from original then
[01:19] <Belboz93> cgentry72: that can cause a lot of problems
[01:19] <frederific> starcannon/gaten: (I don't need the guide, I just thought the pastebin seemed the right place to throw it)
[01:19] <genii> !root | TalibJayid
[01:19] <amenado> TalibJayid-> yes
[01:19] <cgentry72> urrrggh i'm not sure how then
[01:19] <wolfmanz> anyone know how i can see the boot messages you see when the hard drive does that scan disk thing before boot up is there a log that stores these messages after each bootup?
[01:19] <amenado> TalibJayid-> im typing with my thumbs..hehe
[01:19] <TalibJayid> k thx
[01:20] <crunchybumble> i bent the root password with my mind
[01:20] <amenado> wolfmanz-> fsck events are not log-able from what i understood
[01:20] <starcannon> gaten heres the guide http://pastebin.com/f4d1facb2
[01:20] <cgentry72> amenado, how do i restore it? sorry
[01:20] <amenado> cgentry72-> you can only restore if you had kept the original
[01:20] <raket> hey people! how much space should I leave for Kubuntu, since I want to move my /home directory on another partition
[01:20] <Belboz93> cgentry72: you'll need to get to a command line, like Ctrl+Alt+F1, (Ctrl+Alt+F7 should be the GUI), and run:
[01:20] <Belboz93> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:21] <wolfmanz> ok thanks
[01:21] <crunchybumble> well, if you were using a versioning file system...
[01:21] <crunchybumble> but that would be VMS
[01:21] <cgentry72> Belboz93, i have that
[01:21] <ricanelite> how can i convert a .ogg file into a avi or mpg
[01:21] <Ecclesiastes> Has this patch been applied to the pata_artop module : http://linux.derkeiler.com/Mailing-Lists/Kernel/2007-08/msg04132.html  ?
[01:21] <gaten> starcannon:  thanks
[01:21] <starcannon> gaten don't skip steps even if you think you've already done them in the past, follow it completely and you'll be rewarded with an Nvidia splash screen and full direct rendering support
[01:21] <TalibJayid> amenado: sudo -s mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /media/disk -o force does not work
[01:21] <starcannon> gaten any time
[01:21] <TalibJayid> it says cannot execute binary file
[01:22] <^u^> kitsuneofdoom: rbox plays the oggs here...
[01:22] <amenado> TalibJayid-> you just have to sudo -s first then you can issue the mount
[01:22] <amenado> separately
[01:22] <sevillian> how can i fix the vedio card?
[01:22] <cgentry72> Belboz93, sorry can you repeat the last step, no mouse to move up
[01:23] <amenado> TalibJayid-> and being in livecd, you have to have the mount point readily available to mount it on, if it does not exist you'll get an error
[01:23] <Belboz93> cgentry72: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:23] <raket> hey people! how much space should I leave for Kubuntu, since I want to move my /home directory on another partition? would 5GB be enough?
[01:24] <nubbie_> raket: do you already have ubuntu installed?
[01:24] <sevillian> how can i fix the vedio card?
[01:25] <styles> Hey
[01:25] <bpat1434> If my hard-disk is "turned off" would that stop my display from coming back after my computer is idle?
[01:25] <kitsuneofdoom> ^u^: I'll tell mine that yours plays them
[01:25] <_2> it's frustrating not being able to figure out how i want to setup my filesystem/s    ;/     i have two disks  small 80g  and smaller 20g    not sure how i want it setup though,   i do want a 2g wintindo fs on there tho.

[01:25] <eboyjr> Let's say I have a launcher... '/usr/share/applications/gedit.desktop' and I want to run the command associated with it. Is there a command that will take care of that?
[01:25] <nubbie_> bpat1434: yes, considering the program which controls your display is on the hard drive.
[01:25] <raket> nubbie_: I have Kubuntu, but it is fresh installation, so I can reinstall it
[01:25] <raket> if needed
[01:26] <crunchybumble> i've got a 500 GB drive, I want to use my machine as a fileserver as well as my primary home use box. I'd also like to have a small XP partiton around, just for kicks.

[01:28] <_2> styles you can delete that pannel and put what you want on the other one.
[01:29] <^u^> kitsuneofdoom: seems to be local issue for you - sorry can't help more/any :)
[01:29] <nubbie_> sevillian: what is klcodec390f ?
[01:29] <sevillian> that is Codec
[01:29] <VARGUX> ....hi... i have a doubt.....
[01:29] <nubbie_> styles: the middle mouse button will move panel applets if you want to move them all fastly.
[01:29] <cgentry72> that made it worse :( now i only have 800x600 resolution and still not mouse :D
[01:29] <nubbie_> styles: unless they are locked of course.
[01:30] <bazhang> ubuntu-restricted-extras is same as klite codec pack sevillian
[01:30] <VARGUX> anything external hard disk... works in ubuntu (via usb port) ??????????????????
[01:30] <styles> nubbie_: how do I recreate a bar if I deleted it?!
[01:30] <FFEMTcJ> can someone help me setup file sharing between win & ubuntu
[01:30] <nubbie_> styles: manually.
[01:30] <Reck> ikonia, I am looking for a Web Design program that does not require a knowledge of HTML
[01:30] <bazhang> !html | Reck
[01:30] <sevillian> nubbie_ : what the command line i would type to install it?
[01:31] <nubbie_> sevillian: you haven't told me what is is or does.
[01:31] <ouellettesr> hello has anyone had trouble with updateing vmware server for hardy using the any any 15 update?
[01:31] <cgentry72> everything works fine under another user here so i'm just going to start over cause i can't deal with this today :(
[01:31] <bazhang> sevillian, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[01:32] <bazhang> nubbie_, klite codec pack for windows
[01:32] <VARGUX> ....hi... i have a doubt.....
[01:32] <VARGUX> anything external hard disk... works in ubuntu (via usb port) ??????????????????
[01:32] <Reck> bazhang, I am looking for a easy to use Web Page Design program, one that does not require html knowledge
[01:32] <NW2190> Hey, I just lost my program associations in firefox (i.e. after downloading a .tar.gz the "open with" menu is blank).  Does anyone know how to fix that?
[01:32] <nubbie_> i still don't know what klite is.
[01:32] <sevillian> nubbie_:   i wanna rum Edu movie .. i can listen but there in no picture
[01:33] <bazhang> kompozer iceape are two Reck
[01:33] <_2> VARGUX linux does support usb disk drives.
[01:33] <Reck> Thanks
[01:33] <twobits> Hey, I have a problem with "Blank Screen" on Ubuntu 8.04
[01:34] <twobits> Currently, my power management settings say to blank the screen when I close the lid
[01:34] <VARGUX> _2 this "Linux" is which i know??? :P
[01:34] <twobits> however...
[01:34] <sevillian>  nubbie_ :  what  means by klite ?
[01:34] <_2> VARGUX linux is the kernel.
[01:34] <twobits> When I open the screen back up, the screen stays blank. The computer isn't frozen, and it still responds... the screen just doesn't come back on. If I restart xserver, I can see the screen again, but obviously at the cost of losing what I was doing...
[01:34] <fde> NW2190: In Firefox 3b5, you can go to Edit > Preferences > Applications tab and ensure they're there... what does that tab look like for you?
[01:35] <twobits> Is there anyway to fix this?
[01:35] <_2> VARGUX the rest is GNU
[01:35] <bazhang> klcodec390f = klite sevillian
[01:35] <sevillian> bazhabg : it may be media player classic
[01:35] <sunce> :)
[01:36] <fde> _2: Most Ubuntu users don't care about such things, no need to explain them here, this is a support channel, not an informational channel
[01:36] <bazhang> sevillian, install ubuntu-restricted-extras; that is the ubuntu 'codec pack' ;]
[01:36] <mudd`Hossam> hello, anyone have any recommendations on a PCI-E raid controller card with raid5 (1TB x 4)?
[01:37] <NW2190> fde: ya I've been messing around with that trying to fix it but still had no luck.  It looks fairly normal, but when I try to choose Archive Manager I get an error.
[01:37] <_2> fde i guess that's an invitation to leave.        fair enough.
[01:37] <sevillian> bazhang : thank i  do now
[01:37] <MachinTrucChose> what was _2 talking about?
[01:37] <VARGUX> _2 i know... linux is the kernel... you write "linux"... y write ubuntu!
[01:37] <bazhang> fde support with no info? ;]
[01:37] <sevillian> bazhang : thank you for your helping
[01:37] <twobits> sorry, If some one mentioned a solution to my problem, could he or she repeat it? I was disconnected
[01:38] <VARGUX> _2 and... i wrote.. "LInux"
[01:38] <fde> bazhang: He was explaining GNU/Linux related stuff rather than explaining how to fix an issue etc...
[01:38] <bazhang> fde he had two short lines--never mind
[01:38] <genii> MachinTrucChose: He was getting offtopic from support, which is primary purpose here
[01:38] <MachinTrucChose> aah, a GNU/Linux vs Linux flamewar
[01:39] <mudd`Hossam> does anyone know if a software raid can be brought over to a hardware raid?
[01:39] <CorbinFox> perhaps even a GNU/Linux vs Linux vs ubuntu one
[01:39] <MachinTrucChose> WTF...Azureus crashed because I didn't shut down properly, now it's in Hebrew O_O
[01:39] <MachinTrucChose> half of it...the other half is English
[01:40] <jpastore> hi I upgraded to 8.04 and now my wireless driver is no longer working. can someone point me in the right direction.
[01:40] <NW2190> Is "Archive Manager" just another name for File-Roller?
[01:41] <zChris> jpastore: try googling "your wlan card ubuntu hardy"
[01:41] <fde> NW2190: yes
[01:41] <NW2190> fde: k that's what I thought.
[01:41] <zChris> Rick roller?
[01:41] <zChris> :D
[01:41] <jpastore> zChris, I get a variety of crap that isn't helping very much.
[01:41] <dxdt> jpastore: what card?
[01:41] <twobits> jpastore: What wireless card?
[01:42] <jpastore> intel 3945
[01:42] <dxdt> jpastore: also what does iwconfig produce?  Anything interesting?
[01:42] <zChris> jpastore: hmm , well then i dont know mate, Soz
[01:42] <MachinTrucChose> zchris: I thought it was a joke at first...didn't expect a pasty 19yo white guy to sound like a grave mid-forties black man
[01:42] <dxdt> that's really odd.  Intel cards should work pretty well
[01:42] <zChris> MachinTrucChose: what?
[01:42] <cybertux> hi
[01:42] <MachinTrucChose> Rick Roll
[01:42] <bazhang> !ot | MachinTrucChose
[01:42] <MachinTrucChose> ok, ok
[01:42] <zChris> MachinTrucChose: sorry im not following
[01:42] <MachinTrucChose> is there an offtopic channel?
[01:42] <jpastore> dxdt, I tried installing the ndiswrapper and I think I messed also tried the iwl driver
[01:42] <MachinTrucChose> thx
[01:43] <jpastore> I tried to compile the linux driver which was the iwl driver that I downloaded from intel but the it failed...
[01:43] <jpastore> it was workign in 7.10
[01:43] <jpastore> I was using wicd which got upgrade and stopped working
[01:43] <bazhang> no worries ;]
[01:44] <dxdt> jpastore: yeah ndiswrapper is definitely not needed.  In fact I'm pretty sure that card should work out of the box.  I wonder if there was just something else slightly not working.  hmmm did iwconfig show anything interesting?
[01:44] <eegore> How do I do a dist upgrade from feisty
[01:44] <Sirjames> how do i do the linux cube
[01:44] <styles> How do I completely uninstall Knome? I don't want any of the programs it installed eathier.
[01:44] <jpastore> dxdt, define interesting
[01:44] <IdleOne> !compiz | Sirjames
[01:44] <bazhang> jpastore, some folks have been hit with a bug with the transition from ipw to iwl
[01:45] <jpastore> bazhang, I think that might be the case here from what I've been seeing on the forums but can't verify
[01:45] <jpastore> bazhang, how is taht bug resolved?
[01:45] <zChris> I got strange error with the xv codec on VLC, when i use it the colors is totally off
[01:45] <dxdt> jpastore: heh, umm I guess just pastebin the output?
[01:45] <dxdt> jpastore: or is that not possible?   is there like an eth0 or eth1 that looks like your wireless card?
[01:46] <bazhang> jpastore, oddly enough, a fresh install of kde4 had it workining out of the box for me-->perhaps gnome might do the same might try the live cd and check it out
[01:46] <jpastore> dxdt, no it says there's wireless detected on wlan0
[01:46] <starcannon> gaten how did the guide work out for you?
[01:46] <jpastore> which used to be eth1 I guess
[01:46] <fde> eegore: System > Administration > Software Sources... the "Updates" tab, at the bottom there should be an option "Show new distribution releases:" Ensure this is set to at least "Long term releases only"
[01:46] <jpastore> bazhang, I tried booting off a live cd and it didn't seem like it was working...but my dhcp server was screen and nm-applet seems to have a problem working when you take an adapter off roaming mode
[01:46] <dxdt> jpastore: well.....  I think I'm out of my league, because it should probably be saying eth1.  I'm not sure what the ndiswrapper did and I'm not familiar with it.  :(
[01:47] <jpastore> dxdt, I think one of the drivers created a device alias which is why it's not called wlan0
[01:47] <bazhang> jpastore, best when in live cd to drop to a shell and see what ifconfig/iwconfig turn up
[01:47]  * vujici hola
[01:47] <fde> dxdt: 'ndiswrapper -l' return anything? If so, you were successful, and can go to System > Administration > Network and set up the card normally.
[01:47] <bazhang> !es | vujici
[01:48] <jpastore> bazhang, ok let's say for a second, that it's successful. how does that help me unless I go for a complete reinstall which is not an option right now
[01:48] <jpastore> there has to be a way to fix this
[01:48] <surlyduff> while upgrading from gutsy to hardy, my computer froze.  now, the system boots up but I can't access my file manager.  I can connect to the internet and the update manager says to run a partial upgrade, but that's as far as it goes.  my cd drive isn't reading from the disk.  any advice?
[01:48] <Sirjames> can someone help me with the cube
[01:48] <zChris> jpastore: did it work at any point ?
[01:48] <r00723r0> Hi, is the current Ubuntu kernel supportive of ext4?
[01:48] <Andares> Hi guys.
[01:48] <jpastore> zChris, yes when I was running 7.10 before I did a distupgrade
[01:48] <Andares> Why is it that SILC doesn't come installed with pidgin?
[01:49] <genii> r00723r0: ext4 has been temporarily removed from kernel tree due to problems. So no
[01:49] <bazhang> jpastore, clearly not, just lets you know that it is upgrades and not fresh installs that has the bug-->though you could copy your home partition elsewehre and just copy it back
[01:49] <zChris> jpastore: hmm, well it seems to get detected thats good right? :P
[01:49] <dukesr420> hi im looking to find some help i installed the bew ubuntu and set it up and when i tried to login it just restarts and wants me to login again
[01:49] <r00723r0> genii, when will it be allowed, and when it is, how would I make a currently ext3 partition into an ext4 one?
[01:49]  * DeadNed hi
[01:49] <styles> Hi, how can I remove Knome?
[01:49] <fde> Sirjames: I can tell you a quick and dirty way if you'd like, provided System > Preferences > Appearance "Desktop Effects" tab is selecting something other that "None"?
[01:49] <Andares> Why does SILC not come installed??
[01:49] <jpastore> zChris, yea
[01:49] <alexbobp> I'm having problems figuring out what sound server is running so I can replace it with the sound server I want running.  What's the best way to find out what program is directly using my audio hardware?
[01:49] <HaDy> lalala wireless still doesn't wana work :(
[01:49] <fde> Sirjames: I mean "Visual Effects" sorry.
[01:49] <zChris> jpastore: you sure it aint the settings then ?
[01:49] <jpastore> bazhang, fair enough
[01:49] <bazhang> Andares, what is that
[01:49] <davelee> hey all
[01:49] <davelee> say
[01:50] <Andares> bazhang, a secure IM protocol.
[01:50] <jpastore> let me grab the disk and give it a go
[01:50] <davelee> i got no /dev/mapper
[01:50] <brady> Does anyone know how to get Ustream.tv to work in Ubuntu?
[01:50] <Andares> comes with pidgin on normal systems.
[01:50] <brady> to view
[01:50] <vujici> hello all
[01:50] <vujici> :
[01:50] <eegore> fde: I don't see it in kubuntu
[01:50] <jpastore> zChris, I'll try one more time
[01:50] <brady> not to broadcast, but to view
[01:50] <davelee> i have libdevmapper installed
[01:50] <jpastore> afk
[01:50] <bazhang> !ask | vujici
[01:50] <davelee> am i missing something ?
[01:50] <zChris> jpastore: perhaps you can turn off hidding of SSID and disable mac adress (if you have it on) and no password jsut too see that it detecte the network?
[01:50] <fde> eegore: ahh... Kubuntu has something similar, I forget where they put it though...
[01:50] <bazhang> !info silc
[01:50] <Kirsch> hey guys, i have a server that runs a software raid via mdadm, one of my drives died, does it matter if they are exactly the same or just have to make sure it's the same amount of space? it's a raid-1 setup
[01:51] <Andares> Hm. It should come with though.
[01:51] <Kirsch> i wanna get a SATA drive this time instead of a IDE drive

[01:53] <mintsoup> is there some way I can monitor harddisk disk IO?

[01:53] <Computer|Nerd> oh...
[01:53] <Computer|Nerd> I see
[01:53] <loomba> quick question:  HOW do i view an MMS stream that needs a USER NAME and password in put,  using vlc or mplayer or gstreamer
[01:54] <dukesr420>  hi im looking to find some help i installed the bew ubuntu and set it up and when i tried to login it just restarts and wants me to login again
[01:55] <starcannon> dukesr420 i'd try a vlc or mplayer plugin for firefox maybe, not sure, thats just my fist thought at it
[01:55] <madbox> .nl
[01:55] <dukesr420> im sorry im very new to this what is that?
[01:55] <fde> Computer|Nerd: I think it was more the patience thing, but it also helps if you keep your questions to a minimal of lines, and formulate them more completely... but, you're looking for a TV application?
[01:56] <TS> I need help configuring my resolution please. It used to be alright and now its really low and locked out.
[01:56] <Computer|Nerd> no, I watch people live on ustream.tv but it doesn't work on Ubuntu
[01:56] <ron> hello
[01:56] <fde> Computer|Nerd: Is it a flash site?
[01:56] <o0Chris0o> anyone know any websites that have system sounds
[01:56] <starcannon> lets you view multimedia, particularly the streaming variety in the firefox(aka mozilla) web browser, synaptic package manager has a firefox/mozilla mplayer plugin for sure, cant remember if it has one for vlc or not
[01:56] <Computer|Nerd> yes
[01:56] <Rafase282> I need help with virtualbox
[01:56] <jskyhawk> I have a question... I have windows vista running on three hard drives in a Raid 5 config... i just installed 8.04 to a fourth drive outside of that array but when i try to boot from Grub i get error 17... anyone can help?
[01:57] <fde> Computer|Nerd: install 'ubuntu-restricted-extras' restart your browser and try again  :)
[01:57] <Computer|Nerd> and Firefox brings up the little play triangle inside the circle and I click it, and it is just blank fde
[01:57] <zChris> I got strange error with the xv codec on VLC, when i use it the colors is totally off. Any suggestion on how to fix it? Got Nvidia 8800GT and their propiteray drivers.
[01:57] <Rafase282> can anyone help me wih Virtualbox?
[01:57] <o0Chris0o> anyone know any websites that have system sounds
[01:57] <fde> Computer|Nerd: ahh, so you've installed flashblock or gnash or something similar?
[01:57] <dukesr420> ok thanks
[01:58] <ron> my window vista does work on my computer
[01:58] <klutch240> Ubotto.  I got it.  Thanx
 you could type e to edit the boot menu then change the drive it boots from, then hit b to boot off different hd(x,x) drives to see if it works
[01:58] <mikeooooo> mine got changed once and now i have to edit it every time i boot because im too lazy to find it and permanently edit it
[01:58] <starcannon> jskyhawk your likely going to need to run grub from a livecd and get it pointed to your boot partition, i'm guessing that your using a bios device selector to get your ubuntu drive to go first, then grub not knowing that it really isnt the first physical drive on the system is pointing at the first drive in your raid, least from the little you've said thats what I think may be happening
[01:59] <TS> I need help configuring my resolution please. I have all the NVIDIA drivers enabled but it doesn't make a difference.
[01:59] <jskyhawk> thanks star
[01:59] <fde> mikeooooo: you can edit /boot/grub/menu.lst to change it perminently... try 'sudo gedit <file>'
[01:59] <Computer|Nerd> fde, I don't think so...
[01:59] <o0Chris0o> anyone know any websites that have system sounds or does gnome have any extras?

[02:02] <starcannon> later all, an ass hat has taken our node :(
[02:02] <croddy> TS, i had the same problem until i just said "screw it" and used nvidia-settings to write xorg.conf. it has worked like a charm since then.
[02:03] <FloodBot2> NOTICE - If you couldn't speak to the channel during the past minutes, please try again now.
[02:03] <compy> croddy yeah it wont allow me to write xorg.conf
[02:03] <croddy> compy, it needs root privileges to write to that file in that directory
[02:03] <compy> so how would i do that, log on as root?
[02:03] <compy> but i dont know how thats possible since there is no root
[02:03] <croddy> compy, you should be able to run it with sudo
[02:03] <compy> so i need to run x server settings as sudo?
[02:03] <croddy> (also, it is a myth that there is no root -- check out the process list.)
[02:04] <LyleM> UbuntuPWNS, !!
[02:04] <compy> croddy, oh =]
[02:04] <croddy> compy, i am referring only to those with nvidia cards for whom the standard display config tool does not produce desirable results
[02:04] <zChris> croddy: but logining into root is disable as default, from a ordinary user right ?
[02:04] <cybertux> sudo passwd
[02:04] <UbuntuPWNS> hey LyleM :D
[02:04] <croddy> there is no need to run an entire X session as root. that is a bad idea.
[02:04] <compy> so this is a lame question, but how do i run NVIDIA X Server Settings as root
[02:04] <croddy> compy, sudo nvidia-settings
[02:04] <Libra> omg
[02:04] <Libra> all these nicks are taken :(
[02:05] <croddy> (note that this is not a supported way to write xorg.conf -- it's just the path of least resistance)
[02:05] <TS> when I try and run the nvidia-settings it tells me that I'm not currently running the Xserver
[02:05] <TS> and get this message.
[02:05] <TS> You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server.
[02:05] <fde> zChris: The root account is disabled, but it is still there.
[02:05] <compy> croddy ahhh thanks
[02:05] <croddy> TS, you need to get the nvidia driver set up first.
[02:05] <croddy> the root account is not even disabled. it just lacks a password.
[02:06] <compy> thansk croddy ^^
[02:06] <fde> croddy: hence disabled  ;)
[02:06] <crdlb> TS: what nvidia card do you have?
[02:06] <croddy> a matter of semantics, i suppose....
[02:06] <fde> croddy: ! in password field == disabled.
[02:06] <TS> I'm not sure off hand crdlb
[02:06] <croddy> if 'sudo su' works, i would not describe it as disabled, personally...
[02:07] <zChris> croddy: does it work?
[02:07] <croddy> it always has for me.
[02:07] <starcannon> gaten you there?
[02:07] <zChris> he cool
[02:07] <zChris> :)
[02:07] <TS> how do I kill the xserver so I can restart it?
[02:07] <compy> anyone have songbird running on 64 bit?
[02:07] <RyanPrior> My friend upgraded to Hardy and his sudo stopped working. How does one fix that?
[02:07] <crdlb> TS: did you run nvidia-xconfig ?
[02:07] <RyanPrior> TS: ctrl+alt+backspace kills and restarts the x server.
[02:07] <TS> yes I get an error
[02:07] <croddy> aha, now we see the error inherent to the disabled root account!
[02:07] <gaten> starcannon:  yea
[02:08] <starcannon> TS from command line for gnome sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[02:08] <croddy> RyanPrior, encourage him to reboot in single-user mode and edit sudoers
[02:08] <plik> RyanPrior: vi /etc/sudoers  in single user mode I guess
[02:08] <crdlb> TS: which is?
[02:08] <starcannon> gaten did that guide straighten things up for you?
[02:08] <RyanPrior> plik: It says something like "can't resolve host" when he tries to use sudo.
[02:08] <croddy> creepy
[02:08] <crdlb> starcannon: he'd probably prefer 'restart' :)
[02:08] <plik> very odd
[02:08] <gaten> starcannon:  oh gotta restart and check. the only thing i didnt do that you pointed out was with the modules. let me restart and see
[02:08] <starcannon> crdlb ah yep sorry he would, my bad sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[02:09] <fde> RyanPrior: That means hostname was changed without changing hosts... if you have the livecd around, you can just mount the partition and edit the applicable files so they match again.
[02:09] <TS> Oh
[02:09] <TS> didn't do jack but log my session off
[02:09] <TS> thanks
[02:09] <TS> lol
[02:09] <RyanPrior> fde: He doesn't have a LiveCD, he upgraded via network.
[02:09] <felipe__> What happens if I remove pulse audio? will I still have sound?
[02:09] <fde> RyanPrior: Or the single user thing... didn't think of that.
[02:09] <Tuojalta_Surma> I'm having a bit of problem installing Ubuntu 8.4.  When I hit anything but memory test it brings me to a black screen with only a cursor in the upper left.
[02:09] <RyanPrior> fde: How do you active single-user mode?
[02:09] <croddy> RyanPrior, any live CD will work for this. knoppix, ubuntu 6.06, ...
[02:10] <crdlb> TS: logging out doesn't actually restart X by default; it reuses the display
[02:10] <RyanPrior> croddy: How do you do this hostname thing?
[02:10] <croddy> RyanPrior, fde is suggesting editing /etc/hosts so that the lines for localhost match the new hostname
[02:10] <TS> I just did the ctrl alt backspace and it booted me out. but I still get the xserver isn't configured message
[02:10] <croddy> do this using your favorite text editor
[02:10] <nubbie_> banshee 1.0 beta one is live people!
[02:10] <RyanPrior> croddy: How do you find the new hostname?
[02:11] <fde> RyanPrior: during boot, enter grub by hitting a key in the time alloted... then type 'e' and add '1' to the line... then 'b' to boot...
[02:11] <starcannon> anyone here able to walk a noob through setting up a hard drive for ubuntu using lvm? I've never done this before so am stumped how to start
[02:11] <HindenPeter> I have a question: Where can I find the ATI fglrx drivers? I'm having some trouble finding them in the forums.
[02:11] <fde> croddy: that would be a more drawn out process... run level 1 is easier.
[02:11] <RyanPrior> fde: And that logs you in as root?
[02:11] <starcannon> HindenPeter www.ati.com and then be sure to follow the link to the wiki on how to install them
[02:11] <fde> RyanPrior: Essentially... yes
[02:12] <RyanPrior> How do you find the new hostname?
[02:12] <croddy> wow, are there already ATI cards that are unsupported in 8.04?
[02:12] <fde> RyanPrior: It is also why my systems have a grub password  :)
[02:12] <croddy> (it's why my systems use encrypted LVM)
[02:13] <SitUbuntuSit> hmm, i actually thought there was progress with ati. i used to need xgl but can actually run aiglx nicely now in hardy.
[02:13] <jumpkick> is there going to be a fix for firefox going insane on the disk i/o?
[02:13] <starcannon> croddy do you have time to walk me through how to set up a hdd using lvm, I'm not worried about encryption today, I'll tackle that after I unerstand lvm
[02:13] <RyanPrior> That sounds like a good fix, but how does one find what the new hostname is?
[02:14] <plik> RyanPrior: uname
[02:14] <fde> croddy: That is why envyng-gtk exists, to install the newest drivers easily :)
[02:14] <croddy> starcannon, my LVM is pretty rusty and i have to refer to the documentation every time i deal with one at work. at home, it was all set up by the alternat einstaller
[02:14] <fde> RyanPrior: /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts are the files to check.
[02:14] <plik> RyanPrior: oops ,  uname -a
[02:14] <RyanPrior> plik: so, for example, my hostname is Linux?
[02:14] <starcannon> ah i see, okies lol, well that was nicer than an rtfm hehe
[02:14] <croddy> fde, thanks, that will help a bunch at work where i have a continuous flood of whatever ATI card dell decides to ship to me and a raft of developers all demanding the latest ubuntu
[02:14] <Tuojalta_Surma> Ubuntu won't install on my computer, can anyone help me with this problem?
[02:15] <RyanPrior> plik: no, uname -n I think
[02:15] <plik> RyanPrior: sorry,   uname -a   ... after Linux
[02:15] <plik> yah -n too
[02:15] <starcannon> Tuojalta_Surma probably can help, but need to boil it down some, what computer, what is happening, what error messages
[02:15] <plik> -a shows "all"   kernel etc
[02:15] <fde> RyanPrior: That's not enlightening for this situation, please just make sure those 2 files match for host portion
[02:16] <FFEMTcJ> can someone help me with file sharing between ubuntu and windows
[02:16] <edwin> samba

[02:17] <FFEMTcJ> starcannon: im having trouble viewing my windows shares, and from what i can tell, theres no config that needs to be done for samba to view windows, only the other way around
[02:17] <starcannon> Lempface cinelerra is one reason i'm not upgrading one of my machines, I don't want to compile it again lol
[02:17] <John117> My keyboard is not working in Grub.  It works in bios, and it works in ubuntu.  I just can't select a different operating system.  Any suggestions?

[02:17] <edwin> espaniol?
[02:17] <edwin> spanish?
[02:17] <Lempface> meh, i am new to linux and installing apps manual is not my forte
[02:17] <fde> Lempface: actually... it's not in there... grrr
[02:18] <babola1> hi
[02:18] <RequinB4> !flash
[02:18] <Starnestommy> !es | edwin
[02:18] <edwin> ok thanks
[02:18] <starcannon> FFEMTcJ hmm, I haven't done this in a long time, I only have one windows partition left on my network, and its dusty, I think i used to use linneighborhood alot though back when I first started
[02:18] <edwin> bye
[02:18] <RyanPrior> So, what edit does one make to the /etc/sudoers to accomodate this new hostname?
[02:18] <Pord> Is there a way to put gnome 2.22 onto ubuntu 7.10? I dont want to put hardy heron on again as it messes up laptop and is very unstable
[02:19] <FFEMTcJ> i used to have another system running ubuntu, which worked right out of the box.. but this one isnt and i cant figure out why
[02:19] <RyanPrior> My /etc/sudoers doesn't even have my hostname in it .
[02:19] <John117> My keyboard is not working in Grub.  It works in bios, and it works in ubuntu.  I just can't select a different operating system.  Any suggestions?
[02:19] <fde> RyanPrior: one edits /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname
[02:19] <starcannon> FFEMTcJ have you tried linneighborhood?
[02:19] <FFEMTcJ> nope
[02:19] <FFEMTcJ> looking into it now
[02:19] <croddy> John117, is it a USB keyboard?
[02:19] <MrGnu> Ok  all, Howdy... Ok, I bought the Maxtor 4 Mini Backup hard drive, and i ended up getting it for the EEEp
[02:19] <MrGnu> eeepc
[02:19] <MrGnu> here is my question
[02:19] <Lempface> fde: i need something to make a video out from stills... time lapse style
[02:19] <RyanPrior> fde: But if you're looking in /etc/hosts to find out what the hostname is in the first place, how does editing that file help???
[02:19] <John117> croddy: yes
[02:19] <fde> Lempface: Look at Kino
[02:19] <brunner> how much would it slow things down if I just encrypted my home directory?
[02:19] <MrGnu> xubuntu for eee pc, or hardy?
[02:19] <croddy> see if your BIOS supports "usb keyboard emulation", otherwise, you'll have to plug in a PS/2 keyboard for that.
[02:20] <John117> croddy: and it has worked before.  Until just a few minutes ago.
[02:20] <croddy> oh
[02:20] <croddy> hmm
[02:20] <fde> RyanPrior: It needs to match what is in /etc/hostname ... that's all.
[02:20] <RyanPrior> brunner: Very very little. Phoronix has some benchmarks - it's a tiny overhead.
[02:20] <John117> croddy: it works in the bios.
[02:20] <croddy> brunner, not much, but it won't help you much either. you want to *start* with encrypted swawp
[02:20] <croddy> swap even
[02:20] <brunner> Is there good reason to encrypt anything other than home and swap?
[02:20] <miron> I've got a perl module that has errors on line 5, which states "use Lingua::EN::Tagger;
[02:20] <miron> "
[02:20] <fde> croddy: Most modern systems never even touch swap.
[02:20] <compy> which dock do you all recommend awn?
[02:20] <miron> What do I need to get to make this work?
[02:20] <Starnestommy> miron: what is the error?
[02:20] <RyanPrior> fde: Does it matter which one you change to match the other?
[02:21] <miron> BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at modules/con.pl line 5.
[02:21] <Tuojalta_Surma> starcannon:  I'm trying to install ubuntu 8.04 on my computer.  I am using a clone computer (not a brand name comupter) with an amd athlon processer, 390mb ram, 7 gigs of hard disk space, and currently running windows 2000.  I put the disk in and when it goes to the install screen and I hit install it goes to a completely black screen with only a cursor in the upper left
[02:21] <brunner> and, how much would an encrypted swap slow me down?  I have 2GB of RAM.
[02:21] <starcannon> swap still good for laptops and other systems that need to suspend/resume or hibernate
[02:21] <fde> RyanPrior: nope, they just have to match so sudo stops getting confused  :)
[02:21] <brunner> The only application that ever causes me to use swap is Firefox lol
[02:21] <croddy> fde, i insist that encrypting swap is the most important thing of all, since terible things are likely to show up there even for a user who is fastidious about everything else on the system.
[02:21] <Dr_willis> compy,  i find most of these 'docks' to be just eyesore-eyecaney. I stick with the normal gnome panel. Much less hassles
[02:21] <Starnestommy> miron: is the modyle Lingua::EN::Tagger installed?
[02:21] <Starnestommy> *module
[02:21] <miron> That's what I think it is
[02:21] <RyanPrior> fde: so, I could change my hostname in both locations to "chocolaterain" and it would not break anything?
[02:21] <miron> but I'm running kde, so I have a disturbing lack of synaptic
[02:22] <miron> so how do I install it?
[02:22] <RyanPrior> miron: Maybe ask in #kubuntu then
[02:22] <croddy> some stay dry, just make the hosts the same.
[02:22] <miron> er, right
[02:22] <fde> croddy: gcc has many features that ensures apps are compiled in a way that doesn't allow memory hacks
[02:22] <fde> RyanPrior: yup
[02:22] <compy> Dr_willis, yeah i understand, does AWN use much resources?
[02:22] <HindenPeter> K, I'm having trouble installing the ATI proprietary drivers following the instructions linked to on the ATI site. Mainly the fact that ati-driver-installer-8-4-x86.x86_64.run doesn't work.
[02:22] <starcannon> Tuojalta_Surma did you checksum the iso before you burned it? what video card are you using, perhaps choose F4 at the menu screen and choose safe graphics mode from there, if you have a wierd piece of hardware perhaps even an alternate install cd may be required
[02:23] <_0xf001> is there a command line to switch teh port for ssh service
[02:23] <fde> croddy: SELinux also is a good add-on to that situation for the paranoid... I currently have 2gb RAM, I haven't seen swap get close to being used in years.
[02:23] <_0xf001> its not workin by changing config and restarting
[02:23] <Tuojalta_Surma> starcannon:   I bought the CD from one of the places ubuntu reccomended
[02:23] <pjv> what's a good free shoot em game ?
[02:23] <fde> croddy: For flash though, you can ensure it is well behaved... that is probably the most insecure addon for any desktop system.
[02:24] <brunner> fde: yes I have.  Have you used firefox lately?
[02:24] <Dr_willis> compy,  no idea - last i tried to use awn - it had so many other problems i found it totally unuseable
[02:24] <fde> brunner: I keep Firefox running almost 24/7 ...
[02:24] <croddy> i see some swap usage right now for sure, on systems with 2GB of memory
[02:24] <brunner> and it never consumes 1GB of RAM?
[02:24] <starcannon> Tuojalta_Surma nod, its probably a good disk then, have you tried the f4 and safe graphics option at the boot menu yet?
[02:24] <croddy> since you say swap is unlikely to be used, then there is clearly no harm possible in encrypting it.
[02:24] <brunner> I don't believe you.
[02:25] <Lempface> im on a dual boot, can i transfer files from this partition to my windows partition?
[02:25] <jumpkick> FF3b5 is fubar
[02:25] <fde> brunner: firefox 3 has never used that much ram for me.
[02:25] <croddy> i have *never* seen firefox use 1 GB of memory.
[02:25] <Dr_willis> Lempface,  yes you can.
[02:25] <Tuojalta_Surma> starcannon: I'll try that now, if it doesn
[02:25] <brunner> I just restarted firefox, I haven't touched it after loading five tabs as I browsed, and it's already using 160MB of RAM
[02:25] <croddy> not 3, not 2, not 1.5... not 0.8.
[02:25] <Pord> does any1 know if there will be a backport of gnome 2.22 for gutsy? Also if not how can I get 2.22 on gutsy?
[02:25] <Tuojalta_Surma> doesn't work I'll make sure to tell you.
[02:25] <starcannon> Tuojalta_Surma cool I'll be back and forth from the KB but I'll keep an eye out for you
[02:25] <Dr_willis> Lempface,  You can mount  read/write Ntfs under linxu with the ntfs-3g tool. and windows can read/write ext3 filesystems with some other tools
[02:25] <fde> brunner: Mine stays around 30MB unless I'm using a bunch of flash sites, then it goes nuts.
[02:26] <Hammer89> anyone else notice firefox 3 causing pidgin to hang up?
[02:26] <Tuojalta_Surma> thanks starcannon
[02:26] <MachinTrucChose> anyone know why torrents on Ubuntu would be much slower than Windows? I mean technical reasons, not user configuration stuff like port-forwarding. Is it possible the quality of wireless drivers could affect torrent speeds?
[02:26] <brunner> wtf?
[02:26] <brunner> 30MB?
[02:26] <Dr_willis> MachinTrucChose,  wireless drivers can affect speeds. Not just torrent speeds
[02:26] <brunner> no way.
[02:26] <miron> So what would the module  Lingua::EN::Tagger be called in synaptic?
[02:26] <brunner> fde: how did you get it to only use 30MB?
[02:26] <compy> what was that, i missed that last post to me!
[02:26] <fde> brunner: at start up for firefox 3, yes
[02:26] <speedeep> Help with Hardy Heron on Dell 1420N with Intel 3845 Wireless adapter built in?  Everything seems to be working reasonably well, but the network acts really flaky.  No network errors are shown in ifconfig output, but remote connections to a remote server (on home router) in X tunneled over SSH are suddenly locking up after a short transfer.  Everything worked fine with the exact same hardware/software on Gutsy Gibbon, so I'm trying
[02:26] <Starnestommy> miron: probably liblingua-en-tagger-perl
[02:27] <miron> #kubuntu was no help
[02:27] <brunner> oh, at startup, sure
[02:27] <brunner> try using it for a few hours
[02:27] <croddy> mine's been up for a couple of hours and is close to... 80 MB it looks like.
[02:27] <brunner> it's Firefox.
[02:27] <mipstien> im having a really hard time working with the upgrade to 8.04 and trying to get the nvidia drivers isntalled and working correctly. i have used envyng i have used the restricted built in drivers and manually installing them. im extremely lost as to what i should attempt to do next. it just stays in low graphics mode
[02:27] <Dr_willis> miron,  you are refering to a perl module?
[02:27] <MachinTrucChose> drwillis: my download speed test at speakeasy is 5000kbps download. The highest speed I got using bittorrent is 40kb/s.
[02:27] <miron> Yes
[02:27] <fde> brunner: I have adblock and noscripts ... so every site I visit does as it's told.
[02:27] <harksaw> Does anyone know why I get a message saying "SSLfilter: unable to load unix openssl" when I open a news downloader called nzb?
[02:27] <MachinTrucChose> That's on the official Ubuntu torrent, with tons of seeds
[02:27] <miron> and I don't see it under synaptic
[02:27] <brunner> and it's the ONLY reason why I have 2GB of RAM
[02:27] <brunner> well, okay, VMware is the real reason
[02:27] <Starnestommy> miron: it can also be installed throgh cpan with sudo cpan Lingua::EN::Tagger or sudo cpan install Lingua::EN::Tagger
[02:27] <tinsleyjr> can anyone help me trying to revert back to firefox <IP_ADDRESS>?
[02:27] <brunner> but Firefox is the reason I need 1GB of RAM
[02:27] <nuge> on my hardy system, there is something (some cron job) which is changing the permissions of my log files to root/644.  i have a custom app which runs as a different user and it can't write to it's own log after a while... what could be resetting the permissions??
[02:27] <brunner> =P
[02:28] <miron> Sweet, thanks
[02:28] <Dr_willis> MachinTrucChose,   Hook up to wired and see if its any better, thats about the only way to test to se eif its a wireless issue
[02:28] <Starnestommy> harksaw: are openssl and libssl0.9.8 installed?
[02:28] <Atomic_UE> I have very annoying apps that can't fit on *x800 screen. How can I unset the Constrain Y option? Can't seem to find it in CCSM 0.7.4
[02:29] <harksaw> Starnestommy, yes
[02:29] <Starnestommy> harksaw: and libssl-dev ?
[02:29] <MachinTrucChose> drwillis: good idea...but that'll take some effort, I'll have to move the router and the modem
[02:29] <Atomic_UE> nm my problem is fixed ;)
[02:29] <harksaw> Starnestommy, no I don't have the dev. I will install that now, thank you!
[02:29] <brunner> is there any reason to encrypt my entire disk, instead of just /home and swap, if I'm not running a traditional server?
[02:30] <croddy> brunner, if you do not want an attacker to see what software you have installer, or read your logs, or your configuration files...
[02:30] <litlebuda> harksaw, changed the default 22 to something else ? and did you enabled that port on iptables ?
[02:30] <brunner> well, I don't care if anyone knows what packages I have installed
[02:30] <axisys> anyone know of a channel that talks about cell phones
[02:31] <brunner> croddy: what logs would matter that aren't in /home?
[02:31] <fde> brunner: excuse the horrible URL, but: http://lh3.ggpht.com/francis.earl/SCEGQaMUqtI/AAAAAAAAACU/t2334wh3Qks/proof.png
[02:31] <RyanPrior> fde: Thanks for the help. I can't test the solution, but I think I understand the problem well enough to help my friend.
[02:31] <harksaw> litlebuda, if it isn't the dev package, I will check those, thank you
[02:31] <brunner> fde: woah.
[02:31] <_0xf001> does anyone know what port 5353 is and what service would be using it?
[02:31] <_0xf001> its listening on my machine
[02:32] <_0xf001> fresh ubuntu install
[02:32] <RyanPrior> fde: what is that proof of?
[02:32] <tinsleyjr> does know how to revert back to firefox <IP_ADDRESS> in ubuntu 8.04?
[02:32] <RyanPrior> tinsleyjr: You cry.
[02:32] <fde> RyanPrior: Firefox can be well behaved  :)
[02:32] <Dr_willis> tinsleyjr,   you can install the firefox-2 package
[02:32] <croddy> tinsleyjr, install the firefox-2 package and then restore your firefox profile from the backup
[02:32] <o0Chris0o> how do I get the restricted extras for ubuntu
[02:32] <litlebuda> harksaw, im almoust sure its a iptables (firewall)  thing
[02:32] <yowshi> xdoes anyone know if there are any drivers for the supremeFX audio card?
[02:32] <fde> o0Chris0o: 'sudo aptitude install ubuntu-restricted-extras'
[02:32] <croddy> honestly, though, FF3 may hurt a little at first but i've come to prefer it
[02:32] <Starnestommy> _0xf001: do you have anything like bittorrent running?
[02:33] <o0Chris0o> oops was using emerge :-p
[02:33] <_0xf001> Starnestommy no i dont
[02:33] <RyanPrior> fde: Haha, my Firefox is using 286mb of RAM right now.
[02:33] <harksaw> litlebuda, ok, I will look intto that. I didn't think that was it because it works fine without SSL, but maybe the non-SSL port is automatically cleared
[02:33] <RyanPrior> fde: I thought your screen shot was proof of a bug with font rendering or something though - that's pretty ugly.
[02:33] <plik> _0xf001: bonjour / rendezvous
[02:33] <croddy> that's not ugly -- that's helvetica
[02:33] <fde> RyanPrior: Looks good on my monitor... heh
[02:33] <_0xf001> plik : hi
[02:33] <Starnestommy> _0xf001: it might be mdns
[02:34] <plik> _0xf001: hi, but I meant thats what port 5353 udp is
[02:34] <_0xf001> Starnestommy i did netstat -tulpn
[02:34] <RyanPrior> Any way I can revert to the Linux 2.4 kernel in Hardy?
[02:34] <plik> the service called "bonjour" formerly know as rendezvous -- lets local devices see each other
[02:34] <harksaw> It was the libssl-dev package, I installed that and now it works. Thanks Starnestommy!!!
[02:34] <_0xf001> and theres a few ports listeningin on my box im just trying to tighten it
[02:35] <Starnestommy> RyanPrior: I think you'll have to use a 2.6
[02:35] <croddy> RyanPrior, out of curiosity why do you want a 2.4 kernel?
[02:35] <djhash> hey.. i have ubuntu slpash problem when booting and shutting down.. I've changed settings so that it would display on 1024x768 and it works perfectly.. but my screen can view 1280x1024.. thats where my splash wont show.. the desktop loads at 1280x1024 perfectly no problems.. any help is appreciated...
[02:35] <RyanPrior> croddy: For testing purposes. It would be nice to be able to boot into a 2.4 or a 2.6.
[02:36] <croddy> RyanPrior, you might want to use a virtual machine for that
[02:36] <kuahara> Is there a way to force mount an unknown volume/type/size   I previously had XP x64 installed as a primary os and attempted to use partition magic to resize a partition.  Didn't work, but there were no noticeable changes.  When I later deleted the 125GB partition, it showed back up as an 8MB partition
[02:36] <termin8tor> i have a medion pc and my soundblaster live card is not working in ubuntu
[02:36] <_0xf001> www.pastebin.com/m1062cce4
[02:36] <kuahara> ubuntu doesn't even see this partition anymore, but it does see the 137GB partition that I didn't delete
[02:36] <kuahara> but, I can't mount it
[02:36] <_0xf001> Starnestommy : www.pastebin.com/m1062cce4
[02:37] <fde> _0xf001: please recheck that link

[02:37] <_0xf001> sorry
[02:37] <yowshi> does anyone know if there are any drivers for the supremeFX audio card?
[02:37] <Dr_willis> yowshi,  check the alsa homepage to see how well its supported
[02:38] <errorlevel> Is there an easy way for someone to switch from using swfdec to using the flash-nonfree plugin after having made the choice to use swfdec?
[02:38] <Chrysalis> anyone know whats the name of the gnome-python-extras in ubuntu?
[02:38] <yowshi> !alsa
[02:38] <kuahara> it might be easier if I ask if there is anything obviously wrong with this command:  mount -t ntfs -3g /dev/sda5/media/disk -o force
[02:38] <errorlevel> Oh, this is in hardy in Firefox.

[02:38] <randal> Starnestommy: are you there i need some help
[02:38] <voidmage> so i'm impressed. my laptop runs 64 bit better than 32 bit. all the power management features, suspend and hibernate all work. now if only they'd package zsnes for 64bit...
[02:38] <fde> errorlevel: just remove swfdec and install flashplugin-nonfree
[02:38] <Dr_willis> kuahara,   You got a space in the wrong place its 'ntfs-3g'
[02:38] <starcannon> errorlevel open synaptic package manager, search for swfdec uninstall it, search for flash-nonfree and install it, that should get you going
[02:38] <llamakc> John117: python-gnome2-extras
[02:39] <Dr_willis> voidmage,  the other day i heard that zsnes HAD been ported to 64bit
[02:39] <_0xf001> do i need any of those running besides sshd
[02:39] <Dr_willis> !info zsnes
[02:39] <_0xf001> ?
[02:39] <John117> When upgrading from 7.10 to 8.04 does it also upgrade to a newer version of Grub?  That may be why my USB keyboard stopped working.  It has always worked before.  It works in bios, and in ubuntu but not grub
[02:39] <errorlevel> starcannon: Thanks.
[02:39] <John117> llamakc what is that?
[02:39] <^u^> kuahara: and /dev/sda5 media/disk
[02:39] <kuahara> thx willis... also it says that path doesn't exist.  I can go to root and cd /dev, I can also ls sda5 and it shows up, but when I cd sda5, it says that it is not a directory
