[16:41] <Kr0ntab> ecraven: have you tried determining if it's only a firefox font issue?  close firefox... rename ~/.moxilla directory... reopen firefox.
[16:41] <DasEi> Puppy: running hardy heron or ibex ubuntu?
[16:41] <rebel_kid> ikonia, ty
[16:41] <ecraven> Kr0ntab: fonts work fine in openoffice and other applications
[16:41] <garutachi> well I can install it manual but X fails to start on reboot and I have to edit xorg.conf and put vesa inplace of fglrx
[16:42] <Ohmu_> DasEi: Shouldn't udev detect it's removal and auto-unmount it?
[16:42] <Kr0ntab> ecraven: try that anyway... just to rule out the firefox configuration
[16:42] <ecraven> Kr0ntab: renaming .mozilla changes nothing
[16:42] <Puppy> DasEi - not sure, go tthese ISO's ubuntu-8.04.1-alternate-i386.iso and ubuntu-8.04.1-desktop-i386.iso
[16:42] <IntangibleLiquid> dr_willis: some hope these will be fixed by ubuntu 8.10
[16:42] <venkat_partha> hello - wanted some help with respect to sound extracter
[16:42] <Naisenu> I have a new system built hardware-wise -- Live-CD (8.04) is not finding the SATA2 HD (only my EIDE 250GB data drive). Any idea why, how to fix?
[16:42] <Kr0ntab> ecraven: so you've already tried that...
[16:42] <DasEi> Ohmu_:nope
[16:42] <ecraven> i get pango warnings: shaping failure, expect ugly output,  and failed to create cairo scaled font
[16:42] <ecraven> Kr0ntab: yes, just now :)
[16:43] <venkat_partha> how to enable lame mp3 on sound extractor
[16:43] <Kr0ntab> ecraven: oic.
[16:43] <garutachi> legend2440: No driver option for me to click on
[16:43] <DasEi> Puppy: hardy, so - I got a x 1600 running fine with the firmware-driver from ATI
[16:43] <ecraven> any suggestions? this leaves firefox unuseable.. it only happened since the update two days ago
[16:43] <venkat_partha> how to enable lame mp3 on sound juicer
[16:43] <Ohmu_> DasEi: mount finds 9 entries. /dev/sda3, proc, /sys, varrun, varlock, udev, devshm, devpts, lrm, sercurityfs  - it might be /dev/sda3
[16:43] <dr_willis> IntangibleLiquid,  i wouldent bet on it. I imagine the olpc/xo/sugar stuff is just some packages tossed in for people to play with.. start up a wiki page on making it useable under ubuntu, and check the forums I guess. :)
[16:43] <Kr0ntab> ecraven: have you looked in your appearance settings?  for Gnome?
[16:43] <Puppy> DasEi - are you agp or agpx ?
[16:43] <venkat_partha> how to enable lame mp3 on sound juicer
[16:44] <venkat_partha> how to enable lame mp3 on sound juicer
[16:44] <DasEi> Puppy: PCL-ie
[16:44] <Kr0ntab> ecraven: system.. preferences... appearance...  fonts tab
[16:44] <venkat_partha> how to enable lame mp3 on sound juicer
[16:44] <IntangibleLiquid> dr_willis: thanks, i'm talking to my friends to see what they think :-)
[16:44] <profxavier> what does a 'session open' in the proftpd log refer to, as no user is listed as logged in ?
[16:44] <venkat_partha> how to enable lame mp3 on sound juicer
[16:45] <DasEi> Ohmu_:so you will have to force-mount it and next times unmount it before unplugging
[16:45] <ecraven> Kr0ntab: yes, mostly Sans, once Sans Bold, once Monospace
[16:45] <venkat_partha> how to enable lame mp3 on sound juicer
[16:45] <Kr0ntab> ecraven: yeah that's normal...
[16:45] <Kr0ntab> ecraven: when did this happen?
[16:45] <Puppy> DasEi - coudl the problem me pci express ?
[16:45] <legend2440> garutachi: do you have ubuntu installed or are you using the cd?
[16:45] <Puppy> be
[16:45] <ecraven> Kr0ntab: my mother updated two days ago
[16:45] <DasEi> Puppy: no, same here
[16:45] <garutachi> Installed
[16:46] <venkat_partha> how to enable lame mp3 on sound juicer
[16:46] <Ohmu_> DasEi: ok ... can I create a udev rule to automate that?
[16:46] <venkat_partha> How do I enable lame mp3 on sound juicer ?
[16:46] <Kr0ntab> ecraven: hmm...  okay... try this... create a brand new desktop user account...  system ... administration... users and groups....
[16:46] <Ohmu_> DasEi: I don't think it's /dev/sda3 as I tried to umount it, but says 'cant -dev is busy' - but it's unplugged!  So I think that must be some partition of my internal hdd.
[16:46] <DasEi> Ohmu_:no, whats the name of the device ?
[16:46] <legend2440> garutachi: here are some instructions  http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Hardy_Installation_Guide
[16:46] <Kr0ntab> ecraven: and log into that account.  see if problem is user specific....
[16:47] <DasEi> Ohmu_:plug it in, use sudo fdisk -l to get right device name
[16:47] <DasEi> *plug
[16:47] <Ohmu_> DasEi: it's a Western Digital HDD.  I don't know what it gets seen as, cos I can't see it right now.
[16:47] <Ohmu_> DasEi: ok!
[16:47] <garutachi> Legend2440: I have tried that twice with no luck
[16:48] <DasEi> Puppy: tried the firmware from ATI ?
[16:48] <ecraven> Kr0ntab: same behaviour
[16:48] <Kr0ntab> Kr0ntab: ick...
[16:48] <Puppyz> DasEi - so yoru runnign the same card as me ?
[16:48] <ecraven> my xorg.conf didn't have any Files section, so i added one with the usual paths (including defoma)
[16:48] <Kr0ntab> ecraven: ack
[16:48] <rebel_kid> ikonia, got it workin thanks so much
[16:49] <Ohmu_> DasEi: /dev/sdc or /dev/sdc1
[16:49] <Kr0ntab> ecraven: ok... well that ain't good....
[16:49] <Kr0ntab> ecraven: hehe but guess you dont nmeed me to tell ya that
[16:49] <ikonia> rebel_kid: good man
[16:49] <ecraven> though as i said firefox seems to be the only application with that problem
[16:49] <DasEi> Puppyz: no, i got a X1600
[16:49] <ecraven> everything else i tried works fine :(
[16:49] <ecraven> what other app uses pango/cairo?
[16:49] <Naisenu> Can I get some assistance figuring out why a new system build isn't seeing my SATA2 HD?
[16:49] <Kr0ntab> ecraven: yeah... let me search for firefox font locations....
[16:50] <DasEi> Ohmu_:filesystem ?
[16:50] <Kr0ntab> ecraven: give me a sec...
[16:50] <ecraven> strange thing is, start.ubuntu.com/8.04 works fine
[16:50] <Ohmu_> DasEi: NTFS
[16:51] <mrwislr> can i install 32 bit ubuntu on 64 bit chip?
[16:51] <ecraven> mrwislr: yes
[16:51] <Naisenu> ecraven: I think it's cached or the system has a local copy stored
[16:51] <mrwislr> thought so
[16:51] <mrwislr> now even more
[16:51] <ecraven> mrwislr: though you can't if you have a 64bit itanium for example
[16:51] <dr_willis> mrwislr,  i do it all the time.. :) i am testing 64bit now however.. so far its very good under 8.10
[16:51] <mrwislr> i only have one ide port and a few sata spots
[16:51] <DasEi> sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sdc1       /mnt/OhmusHDD -o force
[16:51] <Naisenu> ecraven:  It showed up on my system when i had my non-functional onboard NIC
[16:52] <mrwislr> the cdrom and harddrive are on the same ide slot  can i still install as normal?
[16:52] <Puppyz> DasEi - so s it likly my card is causing th e problem ?
[16:52] <DasEi> Puppy: tried the firmware from ATI ?
[16:52] <ecraven> Naisenu: the problem is not the page content, but the fonts
[16:52] <DasEi> sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sdc1       /mnt/OhmusHDD -o force     ,Ohmu_
[16:53] <mrwislr> if the cdrom and harddrive are using the same ide cable will a cd install still work
[16:53] <DasEi> mrwislr:yes
[16:53] <mrwislr> ?
[16:53] <DasEi> mrwislr:yes
[16:54] <DasEi> Ohmu_:did it mount ?
[16:54] <mrwislr> DasEi: neither the live cd nor the alternate cd of 8:10 works
[16:54] <DasEi> did,damn*
[16:54] <Naisenu> Can I get some assistance figuring out why a new system build isn't seeing my SATA2 HD?
[16:54] <DasEi> !ibex|mrwislr
[16:54] <reqqit> anyone else have the problem where amsn freezes your whole system when offline messages open up?
[16:55] <maniheer> reqqit, aMSN?
[16:55] <DasEi> mrwislr:use hardy
[16:55] <mrwislr> DasEi: boy that is coming down to the line then        i thought surely the installer would work fine
[16:56] <DasEi> mrwislr:its still a beta with many issues like xorg 7.4
[16:56] <reqqit> maniheer, let's repeat a word I say, with a question
[16:57] <maniheer> reqqit, whoops
[16:57] <maniheer> reqqit, I had the same problem
[16:57] <Ohmu_> DasEi: First time it gave '$LogFile indicates unclean shutdown (0, 1) WARNING: Forced mount, reset $LogFile.' and hung there.  and I checked the folder and nothing.  So I ran it again.  this time: 'fuse: failed to access mountpoint /mnt/SamHDD: Transport endpoint is not connected' and still no joy
[16:57] <mato_> me
[16:57] <maniheer> reqqit, I just installed emesene
[16:58] <reqqit> maniheer, emesene?
[16:58] <maniheer> MSN client
[16:58] <maniheer> sudo apt-get install emesene
[16:58] <DasEi> Ohmu_:does the mountpoint exist ?  (see my talk about unclean shutdown above^^)
[16:58] <reqqit> I'll try it.
[16:58] <DasEi> does
[16:58] <mrwislr> DasEi:  what worried me was this was an I/O error locating drive and when i did finally found the drive it failed the format so i thought maybe they couldn't be on the same IDE cable
[16:59] <Ohmu_> DasEi: /dev/OhmusHDD? yes it's there, just empty
[16:59] <DasEi> mrwislr:no problem that two on one IDE
[16:59] <fredreichbier> Hi. I have a ZyXEL ZyAIR B-122 WLAN PCMCIA card. I read that ZyAIR B-120 is supported, does that mean that b-122 is supported, too?
[16:59] <DasEi> Ohmu_: what says      mount        now, mounted Hdd ?
[17:00] <dr_willis> fredreichbier,  would totally depend on the chipset..   so theres no guarentee that it would be.
[17:00] <Kr0ntab> ecraven: I have found nothing .... only references to people upgading firefox... so likely this points to an isolated issue of your firefox installation getting messed up some how.  You can try purging firefox and xulrunner related packages... and reinstalling.  It's a little drastic, as it will remove a few other packages, but they are easiliy reinstalled.  You can also try the reinstall function in Synaptic to see if that clears it up.
[17:01] <godhead> 67
[17:01] <Ohmu_> DasEi: No it hasn't appeared.  mount returns the same readout as before.
[17:01] <fredreichbier> dr_willis: ok, thanks. I'll check the chipset.
[17:01] <DasEi> /mnt/SamHDD     , ?? Ohmu_ ?
[17:01] <ecraven> Kr0ntab: thanks
[17:01] <dr_willis> fredreichbier,  ive seen companies even have identical cards with different 'version' numbers with radically different chipsets. :(
[17:01] <Swolfwarrior> Esto es una chimba
[17:02] <DasEi> !es
[17:02] <kc8pxy> how do i  get a listing of the files a packages provides, on ubuntu? i know how to on my other distro.
[17:02] <HDready> hello folk... i've a problem ;)
[17:02] <Swolfwarrior> OK, sorry ubotty
[17:02] <maniheer> !hi | HDready
[17:02] <kc8pxy> HDready:  shoot.
[17:02] <jrib> kc8pxy: dpkg -L PACKAGE
[17:02] <Naisenu> Can I get some assistance figuring out why a new system build isn't seeing my SATA2 HD?
[17:02] <Ohmu_> DasEi: yep . .. soz I changed the name to keep it easy.  must have slipped up tho.. the correct name is /mnt/SamHDD.  Yes the entry is there.  just is an empty folder.
[17:03] <HDready> i've a .pdf file pw-protected and after entering this i should click on a link so that i can view the .pdf file
[17:03] <DasEi> sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sdc1       /mnt/SamHDD  -o force     ,Ohmu_
[17:04] <HDready> but i can't see this link with the standard ubuntu document viewer
[17:04] <DasEi>  Naisenu:sudo fdisk -l
[17:04] <Ohmu_> DasEi: yep thats the command I've been doing.  It fails.
[17:04] <HDready> when i log myself into a win platform i can see it... but there i use the acrobat reader....
[17:05] <erUSUL> HDready: acrobat for ubuntu is aviable in medibuntu
[17:05] <erUSUL> !medibuntu
[17:05] <kc8pxy> .......    why does ltsp-server provide plugin files for gentoo?
[17:05] <Ohmu_> DasEi: Got it! had to umount it, then mount it
[17:05] <Ohmu_> thanks dood!
[17:05] <Ohmu_> DasEi: ThankYou!
[17:05] <HDready> yes thats right.. but there's noway to open it with the standard vpdf viewer?
[17:05] <DasEi> .safely remove, np Ohmu_
[17:06] <Naisenu> DasEi: I don't want to partition it yet ... I want to *see* it ...
[17:06] <Ohmu_> DasEi:  CAn I add umount /mnt/SamHDD somewhere in udev rules?
[17:06] <reqqit> ok so I have this app that is likely to take down the whole system
[17:06] <DasEi>  Naisenu:did fdisk find the drive ?
[17:06] <DasEi> did*
[17:06] <Ohmu_> DasEi: (just curious, not gona try tonite)
[17:06] <reqqit> short of running a whole linux system in a VM, is there a safety wrapper I can put around this app to sandbox it?
[17:06] <reqqit> app is amsn
[17:07] <DasEi> manually safely remove, Ohmu_
[17:07] <Guest82734> is the ubuntu8.10 finish yet ?
[17:07] <kunwon1> reqqit, it depends on what you're trying to prevent from happening
[17:07] <Ohmu_> DasEi: mmk
[17:07] <DasEi>  Naisenu cmd just lists drive, no formatting
[17:07] <reqqit> kunwon1, I am trying to stop it freezing the whole system and bringing about a catastrophe that could endanger the lives of everyone
[17:07] <DasEi>  Naisenu: sudo fdisk -l
[17:08] <kunwon1> reqqit, there's very little defense against poorly written software.
[17:08] <DasEi>  Naisenu: did you add the drive later ?
[17:08] <reqqit> kunwon1, we are all doomed
[17:08] <reqqit> Have you seen what most of the world are running?
[17:08] <krupa^> how can i discover if my ubuntu is server versoin or desktop version?
[17:08] <kunwon1> reqqit, what's amsn? Are you looking for an IM app?
[17:08] <SlimeyPete> krupa^: they're the same thing
[17:08] <SlimeyPete> krupa^: if you've got graphics then it's either the desktop version or the server version with added graphics
[17:09] <SlimeyPete> if no graphics then it's probably the server version
[17:09] <Naisenu> DasEi: Yes but it doesn't contain a valid partition table. So why can't the installer find it?
[17:09] <krupa^> gotcha
[17:09] <DasEi>  krupa^:uname -r
[17:09] <HDready> yes thats right.. but there's noway to open it with the standard vpdf viewer?
[17:09] <reqqit> kunwon1, I am looking for an alternative yes, but I have some messages in amsn, and I want to check them
[17:09] <choreboy> hey is openoffice3 in the repos yet?
[17:09] <reqqit> but, this version has a unique 'kill the system when you open lol' feature
[17:10] <DasEi>  Naisenu:did you add it to a running system ?
[17:10] <Kr0ntab> choreboy: I don't believe so... not even for Intrepid...
[17:10] <Naisenu> DasEi: The drive has always been attached. It's new build
[17:10] <DasEi>  Naisenu: sudo fdisk -l      ,drive found ?
[17:10] <kunwon1> reqqit, I'm not familiar with amsn, but if I were you I'd try to fix the problem that crashes the system. If amsn is a gui app, you might be able to get more feedback (in the way of error messages) by running it from a terminal. Just a shot in the dark :)
[17:10] <Naisenu> I answered that
[17:12] <reqqit> kunwon1, I have another question, from TTY1 (right term?) can I open a GUI app to show in alt-f7 (what is the right term?)
[17:12] <reqqit> because, the gui on the terminal might freeze, and I can't ctrl-c the app
[17:12] <DasEi>  Naisenu: sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[17:12] <darkmoon> hi everyone i need start a service what is the right command ?
[17:13] <kunwon1> reqqit, you can open a terminal in your desktop environment, rather than switching out to a virtual terminal
[17:13] <Naisenu> kbd needed new batteries
[17:13] <thinkl00p> i got a .avi movie file i'd like to burn to dvd to watch on my DVD player on my tv. Whats a good program to do that with?
[17:13] <dandre> hellon
[17:13] <kunwon1> reqqit, then you'd have the app and the launching terminal both on the same screen
[17:13] <jadedoto> darkmoon: You can go to System > Administration > Services
[17:13] <reqqit> kunwon1, I won't be able to alt-tab / click on it, because the system freezes, but alt-f1 term works
[17:13] <SlimeyPete> thinkl00p: I think k3b does it
[17:14] <Naisenu> DasEi: Can't find package ... I am running off LiveCD 8.04
[17:14] <jadedoto> darmoon: or if you know the service /etc/init.d/XXX start where XXX is the service name
[17:14] <reqqit> I've kills amsn (wish8.5) and gnome-* and other apps, but system is still frozen when it happens
[17:14] <burg> i tried to fix ubuntu with nvidia geforce 8200, by installing other kernel and do whatever some tutorials on net said, but still not working
[17:14] <thinkl00p> SlimeyPete: i can run k3b in ubuntu using gnome?
[17:14] <darkmoon> from comand line ?
[17:14] <enzo> hi, i have a problem, i use jce to add a flash component, but when i add a src="/foo.swf", JCE keeps deleting the / in front of foo.swf, any idea to force jce to let this slash ?
[17:14] <thinkl00p> isn't k3b for KDE?
[17:14] <bullgard4> Why does my the Update Manager of Ubuntu 8.04.1 not offer to download the 2.6.24-21-generic kernel although System > Administration > Software Sources > Updates > Ubuntu updates > Recommended updates (hardy-updates) is asserted?
[17:14] <mib_b0qvnk> hi, i know im not supposed to do this and ask over at the #windows channel, but theyre in some flamewar about china and no one responded to my question. im running winXP and my dvd-rw drive reads everything fine, but no program recognizes it to burn! if you have any ideas could you please PM me? (so i dont spam this channel more)
[17:14] <burg> ubuntu 7.10 has the same problem with nvidia 8200?
[17:14] <kunwon1> reqqit, ctrl+alt+backspace will restart your gui when that happens. I'd just be worried about finding the error messages and trying to fix them. Does your app put any logs in /var/log?
[17:14] <Kr0ntab> thinkl00p: so does "tovid" and "tovidgui"
[17:14] <enzo> oups, error
[17:15] <legend2440> !info devede | thinkl00p
[17:15] <Kr0ntab> devede is nice too
[17:15] <SlimeyPete> thinkl00p: yes. It's a KDE program but you can still run it in GNOME if you wish.
[17:15] <SlimeyPete> it'll work fine.
[17:15] <jadedoto> darkmoon: You can use the GUI to do it. If you want to do it command line then yes, "sudo /etc/init.d/SERVICE_NAME [start, stop, restart]"
[17:15] <akahige> Been playing with some Nautilus configurations and something confuses me... there's a checkbox (e.g. for permissions) that can be checked, unchecked (i.e. blank), or it can have a bar in it... what's the bar signify?
[17:16] <darkmoon> jadedoto thanks :)
[17:16] <reqqit> kunwon1, I'll rerun it with ctrl-alt-backspace in mind, thanks
[17:16] <kunwon1> reqqit, np, good luck
[17:16] <reqqit> sadly, or happily, very little goes wrong, so I don't have the same 'error-fu' as I have when encountering my daily windows issues
[17:17] <dandre> there are three tftpd servers available as debian package: tftpd, atftpd and tftpd-hpa. Which is the best?
[17:17] <Naisenu> DasEi: pastebinit is installed
[17:17] <Kr0ntab> legend2440: it's a thankless world we live in.  :-P
[17:17] <dandre> Which one is the most meined?
[17:18] <Grim76__> dandre: Do you need an tftp server or an ftp server?\
[17:18] <dandre> tftp
[17:18] <legend2440> Kr0ntab: lol sadly it is. thank you for pointing that out
[17:18] <Grim76__> dandre: I used tftpd once a long time ago and it worked rather well.
[17:18] <Kr0ntab> dandre: I actually prefer atftpd
[17:19] <Kr0ntab> legend2440: hehe
[17:20] <SOG> Man, I wanted to ask a question, but then I Forgot ;o
[17:20] <dandre> ok

[17:21] <Kr0ntab> openssh- server already supports it...
[17:21] <Kr0ntab> ssh-krb5 is a transitional meta package I believe...
[17:22] <Kr0ntab> plaerzen: ^  that was to you, sorry.
[17:22] <plaerzen> what does that mean?  I knoe ssh already supports kerberos login, but I need gssapi specifically
[17:22] <burg> can anyone tell me please?
[17:22] <Kr0ntab> gssapi is supported as well..
[17:22] <blip-> hi, anyone know a tool i can use to test my laptop mic ?   like a simple voice recorder
[17:23] <mis1> how can i set my resolution i've nvidia card drivers already installed but cannot set my resolution more than 1024*768 i need to set it to 1360*768 please help
[17:23] <plaerzen> Kr0ntab, hrm, ok.  SO I shouldn't have to patch it or anything in order to accept kerberos logins on this machine, correct ?
[17:23] <blip-> mis1: you;re using official nvidia drivers ?    If so try the nvidia-settings gui config tool
[17:23] <Kr0ntab> see /etc/ssh/sshd_config if you have the server component already installed.... you will find the references you need.  also see openssh.org for documentation...

[17:24] <Wavesonics> hola
[17:24] <legend2440> blip-: gnome-sound-recorder
[17:24] <blip-> bullgard4: maybe that upgrade isn't recommended ;)
[17:25] <Wavesonics> does Ubuntu's Server CD come with raidtools or mdadm?
[17:25] <bullgard4> blip-: Your answer is wrong.
[17:25] <yunus87> hello......
[17:25] <mndo> hi there!
[17:25] <blip-> mis1: you're better of
[17:25] <jadedoto> plaerzen: Those are usually when the naming of something changes, or if it's a dummy trans package, it's a metapackage that tells when packages to install
[17:25] <mis1> blip - i am using nvidia drivers provided by ubuntu
[17:25] <Kr0ntab> plaerzen: it's an empty package that only references dependencies.  installing it will in turn install other packages that are replacing it's functionality.
[17:25] <blip-> mis1: you're better of installing the official drivers
[17:25] <Axz> Hi there guys
[17:26] <Kr0ntab> plaerzen: they can be removed after they've worked their magic.
[17:26] <Kr0ntab> :-)
[17:26] <Axz> any way to fix those gray flash movie
[17:26] <burg> i tried to fix ubuntu with nvidia geforce 8200, by installing other kernel and do whatever some tutorials on net said, but still not working
[17:26] <plaerzen> ahh, ok, I see.  Thanks guys.
[17:26] <sfears> hello, having problems with my dvd player recognizing dvd medium that's inserted in the tray, plays cds fine.  Any help??
[17:26] <Axz> because those flash movie work prefect but after w while they turn to gray windows
[17:26] <mis1> i dunno my card model no i've to lot of searching can u help
[17:26] <burg> do i have the same problem with ubuntu 7.10 ?
[17:26]  * MANIAKA7000 zdraveite!!!
[17:26] <Axz> and movie cant be watched
[17:26] <Axz> only after killing the browser
[17:26] <blip-> mis1: you can use the Hardware Drivers manager to do that.  it will install it for you
[17:27] <mis1> yea i installed the driver using hardware driver manager
[17:28] <blip-> bullgard4: i got the upgraded kernel today, it automatically recommended it on Kubuntu 8.04
[17:28] <Ohmu_> This is very strange.  I'm playing a movie (its a ghibli animation), and the volume level of the speaking is so low I can hardly hear it.  The overall volume's pretty low usually, but loud enough in places.  Is it possible the movie is using 2 audio tracks and there's imbalance between them?
[17:28] <Ohmu_> Could this be a codec problem?  How to fix?
[17:28] <mis1> but how can i change resolution
[17:29] <mis1> blip help me
[17:29] <sfears> mis1.. are you using nvidia?
[17:29] <mis1> yes
[17:29] <kunwon1> Ohmu_, possibly a poorly recorded movie? :D
[17:29] <sfears> sudo nvidia-xconfig
[17:29] <bullgard4> blip-: I got it on one Ubuntu 8.04.1 computer some days ago but I do not get it on another Ubuntu 8.04.1 computer.
[17:29] <Ohmu_> kunwon1: I've watched it from an XP box and it was fine iirc
[17:30] <blip-> mis1: what does "glxinfo | grep vendor" say
[17:30] <jxw002> could someone please help me with grub's menu list?
[17:31] <mis1> where can i find it
[17:31] <robbiev> hey all. I'm trying to setup a syslog server. I've added "-r" into /etc/defaults/syslogd and restarted the server. I can see the the process is running with the -r flag, but port 514 is not open.. Any ideas?
[17:31] <kunwon1> !ask > jxw002
[17:31] <mis1> i mean glxinfo
[17:31] <kunwon1> mis1, it's an application you can launch from a terminal
[17:32] <sfears> jxw002: what is your problem?
[17:32] <Kr0ntab> robbiev: do the syslog files you are referencing exist?
[17:32] <robbiev> Kr0ntab: yes, I edited them.
[17:32] <Kr0ntab> robbiev: what user is the process set to run as
[17:33] <robbiev> Kr0ntab: syslog. The user exists and when the process runs, its running as syslog
[17:33] <robbiev> Kr0ntab: syslog   15065  0.0  0.0  12296   788 ?        Ss   09:32   0:00 /sbin/syslogd -m 0 -r -u syslog
[17:33] <formode> Hello everyone, I'm having problems getting my LiveUSB to boot on my computer, I have an ASUS p5K SE/EPU motherboard...
[17:33] <jxw002> i have have a new kernel, i used update-grub, it founds the kernel, but menu.lst doesn't have it
[17:33] <mis1> server glx vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation
[17:34] <mis1> client glx vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation
[17:34] <mis1> OpenGL vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation
[17:34] <mis1> thi is what glxinfo says
[17:34] <FloodBot1> mis1: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[17:35] <Kr0ntab> robbiev: You looking at UDP port 514?
[17:35] <robbiev> Kr0ntab: I'm doing an nmap on localhost and see nothing.
[17:36] <Kr0ntab> robbiev: do netstat -ln
[17:36] <blip-> anyone know how to find out if the driver for my Intel 4965 AGN... supports IEEE 802.11N draft  ?
[17:36] <mis1> blip
[17:36] <robbiev> Kr0ntab: udp        0      0 <IP_ADDRESS>:514             <IP_ADDRESS>:*
[17:36] <Kr0ntab> robbiev: yay its working then
[17:36] <Kr0ntab> :-)
[17:36] <blip-> yes mis
[17:37] <mis1> i just said what glxinfo says
[17:37] <robbiev> Kr0ntab: I see.. Looks like I need to work on my clients then. thanls
[17:37] <Kr0ntab> robbiev: udp does not respond like TCP for port scans...
[17:37] <Kr0ntab> robbiev: no sweat...
[17:37] <kunwon1> robbiev, you need to explicitly tell nmap to do udp scans, by default it's just tcp
[17:37] <jxw002> do I need to elaborate a little more on my questions?
[17:37] <mis1> blip: so what do u you suggest..
[17:37] <blip-> ok so it looks like you have the drivers installed i believe.  try running "glxgears" now
[17:37] <mis1> ok
[17:37] <blip-> mis1: run it in a console
[17:38] <robbiev> kunwon1: i see thanks
[17:38] <kunwon1> robbiev, good luck
[17:38] <sfears> mis1:
[17:39] <sfears> if you have installed the nvidia restricted drivers & rebooted your computer, type "sudo nvidia-settings" into a command line and your resolution settings are in the settings mis1
[17:39] <mis1> ok
[17:40] <sfears> hello, having problems with my dvd player recognizing dvd medium that's inserted in the tray, plays cds fine.  Any help??
[17:40] <Kr0ntab> sfears: what media are you trying to work with?  video dvd's?  data dvd's?
[17:40] <Puppyz> Anyone can help with me being unable to get the intaller loaded, i have X1950 and sata drives ...
[17:41] <sfears> video dvd's Kr0ntab
[17:42] <Kr0ntab> sfears: commercial dvd's?
[17:42] <sfears> it has worked previously, stopped working after i instsalled a few things... not sure what caused the issues.. yes, commercial dvds
[17:42] <Kr0ntab> sfears: if so... have you installed libdvdcss2?  it's a library that allows you to decrypt retail DVD's...
[17:42] <sfears> i have libdvdcss2 & libdvdread3 packages installed
[17:42] <Kr0ntab> k
[17:43] <mis1> blip: i tried running glxgears and saw gears on my scree with some fps calculation on my screen and that is it how do i cahnge resolution now
[17:43] <mis1> sfear: i am getting command no found
[17:43] <Puppyz> DasE1 - any other idea's ?
[17:43] <Puppyz> DasE1 - urly it shoudl show some sort of error ?
[17:43] <sfears> mis1: "sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings"
[17:44] <WhiteDwarf_> Hi, does anyone know where i can look up the mapping (e.g. disk-by-path <-> /dev/dm-01) the DeviceMapper does when using FiberChannel disk on a SAN?
[17:44] <mis1> sfear: it is installing a new setting package let us wait and see....
[17:45] <sfears> Kr0ntab: not sure if it means anything, but the light on my player stays solid while there's a dvd in.. i try to "sudo mount /dev/sdb /media/mnt" and i get a "no medium found error"
[17:45] <DasEi> Puppyz: took the installer package from ati ?
[17:45] <Naisenu> awww crap ... how can i burn an ISO when I'm using a LiveCD?
[17:45] <ninjafury> Hi. I have an external drive formatted as HFSPLUS. I can write to it if I'm root, but not as a normal user. How do I fix permissions permanently?
[17:45] <mis1> sfear: after the package is installed what should i do
[17:45] <Kr0ntab> sfears: yeah that's weird... it sounds like drive issue?
[17:46] <sfears> it happend after an upgrade of sorts.. not sure what programs were updated, but it has worked on my current version 7.10 last week
[17:46] <Towny> anyone think I should have any problems installed ubuntu-server on a hp ze4300 laptop?
[17:47] <Kr0ntab> sfears: that would be my assumption.  yeah... when you insert the disk... look at /var/log/syslog and /var/log/messages
[17:47] <Kr0ntab> sfears: it will give you info about read errors... or other useful info...
[17:48] <Flannel> Towny: It could be that the server kernel doesn't agree with your hardware.  What are you looking to use the laptop for? (why the server version?)
[17:48] <blip-> mis1: once you have the package,  just run nvidia-settings in a console and you'll get a nice easy tool to change resolution and much more
[17:48] <levene> what do i install to get the info pages for the gnu coreutils?
[17:48] <Ad0> hey
[17:49] <ninjafury> anyone?
[17:49] <Reformer81> How would I go about downloading certain applications (and dependencies) so I can transfer them to a computer without internet connection?  I've looked at AptOnCD, but it doesn't appear to do it.
[17:49] <Flannel> Reformer81: aptonCD will indeed do it.
[17:50] <Reformer81> Flannel: From what I've seen with AptonCD, it only does it for SOME of the applications that I have installed on this computer.
[17:50] <B|ackPanther> how  can i  install inconsolata in ubuntu? Tried searching and nothing helpful is coming up.
[17:50] <mis1> blip: sfear: thank you for you help..........
[17:50] <Reformer81> Flannel: If I want to include a package that isn't currently installed, it doesn't seem to let me.
[17:51]  * Kr0ntab needs to look into aptoncd some time.  sounds like fun.
[17:51] <Ad0> my iec958 is always muted on boot in alsa mixer, why does it's settings get reset every boot ?
[17:51] <Flannel> Reformer81: It allows you to use whatever packags you have in your cache (the deb files you have, not the packages you have installed).  However, you can always download extra packages (even if you don't install them) and then they'll be available.
[17:51] <Flannel> Reformer81: apt-get with -d is download only,
[17:52] <Reformer81> Flannel: Okay... thank you.
[17:52] <levene> anyone got the info page for the paste command installed? i don't know where to get it.
[17:52] <sfears> Kr0ntab: is there something in particular i can grep.. i'm not sure what to do with all the information in that output
[17:52] <ninjafury> Google's not helping. If i open an external drive in Thunar as root on an HFSPLUS drive, they work and are editable. If I'm not root, its read only. How do I fix this?
[17:52] <sfears> mis1 your welcome
[17:53] <sfears> Ad0: iec958 should be muted.. that is used for S/P DIF digital audio cards
[17:53] <Kr0ntab> sfears: sorry mate.  yeah... just do a tail -f /var/log/syslog  and in another terminal... tail -f /var/log/messages
[17:53] <Kr0ntab> sfears: so when you load the DVD in the drive... you should see messages that might mean something...
[17:54] <Reformer81> Flannel: So using aptoncd will make sure that I have all the dependencies required to install the package on the host machine, right?
[17:54] <Flannel> Reformer81: Yeah, it'll make sure the depends exist on the CD too.
[17:55] <Reformer81> Flannel: Alright... thanks again.
[17:55] <delineator> heya folks, im just gonna ask my dumb qestion:  ive got a laptop with vista 64 ultimate, and i would like to dual boot ubuntu for development on the same system without having to redo all my software etc.  is this possible?
[17:55] <sfears> Kr0ntab: i only see a bunch of stuff about pcmcia & my wireless networks
[17:55] <Flannel> !dualboot | delineator
[17:55] <a1len> Does anyone know what the Ubuntu 8.10 channel is?
[17:55] <Flannel> a1len: #ubuntu+1
[17:55] <ninjafury> delineator: if you've got enough space on your hard drive, its possible
[17:55] <sfears> #ubuntu+1 a1len?
[17:56] <janest> hello i am new to ubuntu. I want to setup an Lamp Server to host a few websites. I just installed the latest version of Ubuntu Server and i am not trying to install vnc server so i can work on the server remotely. I installed x11 vnc-java but i can not connect to the server. Can ne1 help me
[17:56] <Kr0ntab> sfears: do CD's work?
[17:56] <sfears> yes
[17:56] <a1len_> Thanks.
[17:56] <delineator> would a core2 duo be considered an x86?
[17:56] <ninjafury> delineator: yes
[17:56] <Kr0ntab> sfears: yeah, then i'm not sure mate.
[17:56] <sfears> #/dev/hdb        /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660,user,ro,unhide     0       0
[17:57] <delineator> thanks, yall are speedy
[17:57] <dennda> delineator: it supports 64 bit if that is the question
[17:57] <sfears> is there something in the file system types that should be dvd specific?
[17:57] <ninjafury> delineator: but you can also install the amd64 version on a core3duo
[17:57] <delineator> excellent
[17:57] <ninjafury> *core2duo
[17:57] <zeta> if i first built my kernel with genkernel all, i dont' have to rebuild it to get alsa support right? (for my HDA intel)
[17:57] <dennda> which I don't recommend you to use :-)
[17:57] <delineator> hahah ok
[17:57] <sfears> Kr0ntab: do you know somewhere i might be able to get some more help on my DVD issue?
[17:58] <Kr0ntab> sfears: that one is commented out...  do you have an entry in fstab about a /dev/scd0 ?
[17:58] <delineator> lets say i wanna develop in flash/AIR on ubuntu with standard to full installs, any ballark figured on how much HDD space i may need?
[17:58] <Kr0ntab> you don't have to paste in here...
[17:58] <ninjafury> delineator: its faster if you use the 64bit version, but some software may only be available as 32bit
[17:59] <sfears> it's not commented in my fstab Kr0ntab, and no, there's nothing about /dev/scd0
[17:59] <sfears> do i need a uuid listed for the dvd drive?
[17:59] <blip-> help,  i get no input from my microphone with skype nor with audio recorder.  I tried each of the drop-down choices in the input option of skype.  could it be confused since my Dell XPS has 2 microphones ?  thanks
[17:59] <Reformer81> Flannel: How do I redownload a package that is already installed but NOT in my apt cache?  Running apt-get install -d reports that it's already the newest version.
[17:59] <delineator> i dont need the extra progs, 64bit may be just fine for me, but does that mean i have to do the amd64 install?
[18:00] <Towny> Flannel: I have this laptop that doesn't really work as a laptop anymore (you haev to plug it in) so I though of using it as a server
[18:00] <gonzaloaf> hello, how do I specify the default soundcard, I have two soundcards...
[18:00] <squidly> anyone ever bridge a wireless card and a NIC?
[18:00] <Daremonai> how can i update the 'locate' database?
[18:01] <squidly> Daremonai: sudo updatedb
[18:01] <Flannel> Towny: Try the alternate CD.  It'll allow you to install a CLI-only version, and it uses the generic kernel, so you're less likely to have hardware issues
[18:01] <daedra> !ibex
[18:01] <a1len_> Is anyone on 8.04 having issues with the Aircrack-ng that's available in synaptic?
[18:01] <Daremonai> squidly: thanks
[18:01] <squidly> Daremonai: np ;)
[18:01] <daedra> 8 DAYS
[18:01] <delineator> ninjafury, can i PM you?
[18:02] <Daremonai> :)
[18:02] <Flannel> Reformer81: hmmm, thats a good question that I dont have an immediate answer to.
[18:03] <daedra> 8 DAYS
[18:04] <Towny> as long as it supports the network card in the laptop that's fine
[18:05] <jxander> where can i see what packages and what changes will be in intrepid?

[18:26] <lovre> is there a channel i can get help with xsupplicant?
[18:26] <xjkx> i opened about:config and flash is there :o but i have an error when i try to watch on youtube
[18:26] <pea_brain> thanks SchneeSchwarz, it works like a piece of beauty.. also, if i need to search for someting based on package descriptions in aptitude, how should i do that ?
[18:26] <xjkx> no, wait, i think the flash thing is a totem thing
[18:27] <bullgard4> pea_brain: Use packages.ubuntu.com
[18:27] <euxneks> xjkx: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[18:27] <euxneks> that might help...?
[18:27] <xjkx> euxneks: and why the other way didnt work ?
[18:27] <ninjafury> can anyone help with my drive problem, really frustrating?
[18:28] <euxneks> xjkx, might be something you missed in installation? Also, did you restart firefox after you installed the plugin?
[18:28] <SchneeSchwarz> pea_brain: Don't know. If I want the package descriptions searched also, I use: apt-cache search <whatever>
[18:28] <xjkx> i did
[18:28] <bullgard4> pea_brain: You can use the program Synaptic for search.
[18:29] <datru> i think my PYTHONHOME is wrong
[18:29] <datru> how can i change my PYTHONHOME variable?
[18:30] <xjkx> worked :> ty euxneks
[18:30] <Blackshark|> can someone tell me the parameters for "ls" to group by size and get the totalsize of a recursive listing?
[18:30] <euxneks> xjkx, sweet!
[18:30] <euxneks> xjkx, glad to help :)
[18:31] <dublpaws> Blackshark|: do you know about the du command?
[18:31] <rosacola> ls --help
[18:31] <pea_brain> SchneeSchwarz, thanks again, apt-cache search does the job to perfection :)
[18:31] <Blackshark|> rosacola: i've searched the --help
[18:31] <Blackshark|> dublpaws: nope i do not
[18:32] <mabc99> has anyone got any experience with R ?
[18:32] <rosacola> sorry i read your question  \wrong
[18:32] <pea_brain> bullgard4, i am running ubuntu in console more, i guess synaptics requires GUI. will try out later. thanks.
[18:32] <sysdoc> ls -S to sort by file size
[18:32] <bullgard4> Why does my the Update Manager of Ubuntu 8.04.1 not offer to download the 2.6.24-21-generic kernel although System > Administration > Software Sources > Updates > Ubuntu updates > Recommended updates (hardy-updates) is asserted?
[18:33] <matveev_> Hi! Why am I the only who can log in to my workstation with Ubuntu 8.04 over ssh? For others neither the RSA/DSA keys are accepted nor the password. Why am I so different?
[18:33] <Blackshark|> sysdoc: yeap i did that but i would like to have the total size aswell
[18:33] <dublpaws> Blackshark|: try $du -h ./
[18:33] <pea_brain> one important support related question, in an LTS release of ubuntu, does the packages from universe & multiverse repos get supported upto LTS timeframe ?
[18:34] <Blackshark|> thx
[18:34] <datru> can someone say me the correct PYTHONHOME path?
[18:35] <euxneks> datru, I have python installed but echo $PYTHONHOME doesn't return anything.. are you sure you need that?
[18:36] <datru> im not sure. but i dont know what elso to do
[18:36] <SchneeSchwarz> pea_brain: np. If you're interested go to http://algebraicthunk.net/~dburrows/projects/aptitude/doc/en/ . aptitude allows rather complex searches and you should be able to search the descriptons also.
[18:37] <bullgard4> pea_brain: Yes.
[18:37] <Ubuntu1> I upgraded from ubuntu8.04 to 8.1, after upgrading i am connected to router wirelessly but cannot browse. please if any body could help
[18:37] <Nibblyn> Hi! OpenOffice v3 is out. will it be placed in guitsy/hardy/intrepid repos? maybe as a backport?
[18:37] <blu1> okay, I have a really serious problem -- everything related to the filesystem is experiencing unpredictable (up to 30 seconds) delays
[18:38] <blu1> even ls in a terminal
[18:38] <noodlesgc> Ubuntu1 intrepid support in #ubuntu+1
[18:38] <euxneks> datru, are you getting an error that tells you PYTHONHOME is incorrect?
[18:39] <alarm> hello, for some nice 3d effects, i need compiz or compiz fusion ?
[18:39] <blu1> in fact, make that multi-minute delays
[18:39] <alarm> i mean is there any difference ?like one of them being outdated ?
[18:39] <blu1> opening nautilus, ls, ANYTHING
[18:39] <mabc99> im installing a package and its looking for sql.h ? where do i find sql.h and where do i install the libraries ?
[18:39] <noodlesgc> alarm compiz has become compiz-fusion
[18:39] <bullgard4> Nibblyn: May be later in a backport. But not in Intrepid in the forseeable future.
[18:39] <alarm> okieee thank you
[18:40] <alarm> i just cannot figure out what packages i finally need
[18:40] <pea_brain> bullgard4, why is main repo called as fully supported ? the universe & multiverse packages are supported differently ?
[18:40] <w0ls0n> hello all. I can in here yesterday and asked about supported addon SATA cards that ubuntu recognized. Does anyone have that URL? I can't seem to find it
[18:40] <noodlesgc> alarm the packages you need should be installed by default
[18:41] <datru> euxneks: im getting this error: update-python-modules: not found
[18:41] <sfears> what are you trying to do datru?
[18:41] <alarm> so all i need is just to install compiz-fusion ? cause i see something like plugins , emerald compizconfig-settings-manager and other stuff
[18:41] <datru> i want to install update-manager-core
[18:41] <woden1> how do I make it so that Rhythmbox reencodes wmv to mp3 when I add it to my ipod?
[18:41] <dEagLE> hi i'm unable to mount my external hard drive. ..what shud i do..
[18:42] <datru> but the system cannot install python-apt
[18:42] <Nibblyn> bullgard4: ok. i need it because of a compatibility problem with cross-references with MSoffice. So, for now the only way to install it is by yourself. That's correct?
[18:42] <noodlesgc> alarm you can enable compiz in system->preferences->appearences then visual effects tab.  Ubuntu Hardy will support the Universe and Multiverse as well as the Main repository throughout the Hardy lifecycle.
[18:44] <nroot7> hi. When I boot ubuntu it performs the filesystem check and fails. I can login by pressing cntrl+D but how can I remove any problems with filesystem ?
[18:44] <sfears> alarm.. under system/administration do you have the "restricted drivers manager" listed in there
[18:45] <euxneks> datru, I think you need to install a package: sudo apt-get install python-support
[18:45] <alarm> i have nvidia drivers allready installed
[18:45] <bullgard4> Nibblyn: This is correct.
[18:45] <sfears> ok.. first install compiz.. it will tell you the necessary dependencies
[18:45] <pea_brain> bullgard4, what i am trying to understand is why the repos are classified as "main", "universe" & "multiverse" ?
[18:45] <sfears> "sudo apt-get install compiz"
[18:45] <tillux1> heya. I've got a problem with my dvdrom-drive. since I plugged in an external-dvd-device (and unplugging that again) ubuntu doesn't recognize my internal-dvdrom drive (IDE) anymore
[18:46] <Nibblyn> bullgard4: thanks

[18:54] <natalisushka> Hi, I have just bought a new Mic, but i can't get it to work, although I made sure the recording sound configuration are enabled. is there anything I can do or install?
[18:54] <Guest52730> why is that ?!
[18:55] <scampbell> Guest52730: that is because you either do not have the proper video driver or have an unsupported video card.  What video card do you have?
[18:56] <sfears> tillux1 "sudo lshw -C disk"

[18:57] <|Dreams|> oops
[18:57] <|Dreams|> rng window
[18:57] <scampbell> Slade92: I believe you need to install the nvidia driver, let me see if I can't get the exact name for you...
[18:58] <scampbell> Slade92: install nvidia-glx  and (optionally but recommend) nvidia-settings
[18:58] <Slade92> scampbell, i think that the video card is not the problem... i instaled and every thing was Ok but today i wanted to make my ubuntu desktop into a Mac Os
[18:58] <scampbell> Slade92: BTW, nvidia-settings will show up as separate program in you Applications menu, it allows you to set other options.
[18:59] <scampbell> Slade92: to verify you can look in the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file and see what device driver you are loading,  it must be nvidia.
[18:59] <dEagLE> hi i'm unable to mount my external hard drive. ..what shud i do..
[19:00] <scampbell> Slade92:  grep -i driver /etc/X11/xorg.conf will list all the drivers in the file, mouse, keyboard, video, the name should clue you.
[19:00] <dEagLE> hi i'm unable to mount my external hard drive. ..what shud i do..
[19:00] <Slade92> scampbell, i is nvidia... and sais that the driver i have is in use...
[19:00] <mpalatnik> i have a script in if-pre-up.d that works fine if run manually
[19:00] <scampbell> Slade92: interesting, does  nvidia-settings run for  you?
[19:00] <mpalatnik> but ubuntu wont run it when i bring the interface up
[19:00] <mpalatnik> why?
[19:01] <dEagLE> hi i'm unable to mount my external hard drive. ..what shud i do..
[19:01] <Slade92> scampbell, it does but that is the problem..
[19:01] <MltShift> dEagLE: dEagLE dEagLE dEagLE
[19:01] <dEagLE> ii need some assistence
[19:02] <MltShift> dEagLE: ask in #linux motherfucker
[19:02] <scampbell> mpalatnik: be sure to use full path names in your script, your PATH is probably different during initialization then it is from the cli
[19:02] <scampbell> Slade92: I don't follow, nvidia-settings works but that is the problem?
[19:03] <mpalatnik> scampbell: dont follow
[19:03] <mpalatnik> scampbell: the system runs all files in that directory, why does the path matter
[19:03] <MltShift> i have never seen so much join/part spam as in this chan
[19:04] <mpalatnik> turn it off in your client MltShift
[19:04] <scampbell> mpalatnik: for example, if you use 'ls' you need to state /bin/ls'
[19:04] <bullgard4> Finnish: sudo lshw -class disk
[19:04] <chickenfuego2> lol
[19:05] <DawnLight> hey. does anyone know about a bug where my kded doesn't start automatically?
[19:05] <scampbell> mpalatnik: that's a bad example because /bin is always in the path but that's the idea, be sure to call out the exact pathname to commands you run in init scripts
[19:05] <zume> Hi everyone. I'm using xChatGnome and I'm not seeing a list of usernames on the left. IS that normal?
[19:05] <Odd-rationale> zume: yes.
[19:05] <Odd-rationale> zume: just click the thing at the bottom of the left pane
[19:05] <dulak> zume: on the bottom of the channel list on the right there is a user button, shows the number of users, if you hover over it, it will show the users
[19:05] <mpalatnik> its not an init script scampbell
[19:05] <mpalatnik> its the if-pre-up.d directory
[19:05] <Daremonai> I want to be able to remote control my downloads on my ubuntu server, how can I do that? - through the web?
[19:06] <dulak> zume: on the left even
[19:06] <scampbell> mpalatnik: my guess is it runs that script but the script fails, I suggest this is usually because of pathnames, if I'm wrong cool, just stating that's the number one reason for scripts to fail under cron, init, etc when they run fine from a shell
[19:06] <zume> Thank you 0dd and dulak! <3
[19:06] <tyk> hello
[19:06] <MltShift> Daremonai: ssh & wget
[19:06] <mpalatnik> that doesnt apply here, scampbell but thanks
[19:06] <yme> Hi, I'd need some help with an Apache problem
[19:06] <jim_p> hi guys
[19:06] <tyk> how can i install ubuntu and keep my windows vista?
[19:07] <Daremonai> MltShift, I want a web interface, because I can't ssh from my uni to my server.
[19:07] <lubosz> what is like tail, but for a whole file?
[19:07] <tillux2> Daremonai: like webmin?
[19:07] <DawnLight> tyk: read the docs about this
[19:07] <zume> If I may, is xChatGnome the recommended IRC Client? It looks a wee un-themed. Anything prettier? I also had to do a LOT of reading to get on here. The whole /join and such. Must it be that hard?
[19:07] <scampbell> mpalatnik: another trick that might be helpfull.  Put   exec > /tmp/rpt 2>&1  near the begining of your script, when it runs the output and errors will be directed to /tmp/rpt so you can see what happened.  hopefully helpful.
[19:07] <tillux2> lubosz: less
[19:07] <tyk> can u link me?
[19:07] <yme> Suddendly my apache wasn't responding anymore. I ran a ps -ef|grep apache and I found maaany apache2 processes running. Why could that be?
[19:07] <tyk> i just found the one to keep only linux
[19:08] <MltShift> zume: try irssi :P
[19:08] <scampbell> yme: it's normal for many apache2 servers to run
[19:08] <jim_p> i installed fluxbox, i decided i dont like it and i removed it. however an entry in gdm still says fluxbox! how do i remove it from there?
[19:08] <lubosz> tillux2: thx
[19:08] <dEagLE> no i'm using ubuntu u chut <MltShift>
[19:08] <tillux2> zume: well, try pidgin ;)
[19:08] <Daremonai> tillux2: perhaps, but i remember webmin being very 'vulnerable' and it gives much more than what i want
[19:08] <scampbell> yme: check your /var/log/apache2 directory for  logfiles that will give you clues.
[19:08] <mpalatnik> scampbell: thanks will try

[19:31] <zume> Reporting bugs is something that the future will handle nicely. Until then, I think we must hold tight to the Ubuntu Forums and ask them what to do. :P

[19:38] <alarm> so settings that are in emerald are also in compiz or how is it ? or i can find some extra features that are not listed sometimes on each of them

[19:41] <tag> remove synaptic, and then install ubuntu-desktop again
[19:41] <tag> ubuntu-desktop is a meta-package, removing it doesn't actually remove anything
[19:41] <Deathzorz> @scientus_: ubuntu-desktop isn't a necessary thing to install, its only necessary when you want to upgrade your version of ubuntu.

[20:01] <fastkeys38> Naisenu: Does the installer do this automatically now - even in manual mode. I don't recall setting it last time i did a manual partition
[20:02] <JakeMon> soundray: i don't have a gui, just the command line

[20:02] <MrMist> fastkeys38: yep
[20:02] <fastkeys38> CSWookie: I think you're best bet is to remove the non-free flash plugin and try Flash 10

[20:05] <fastkeys38> MrMist: That's very strange then. All I can think is that something odd has happened to the drives in the array.
[20:05] <JakeMon> soundray: i tried aptitude but it seems a little too complicated to understand the gui
[20:05] <soundray> gambi: you can have a program run on startup (meaning before you log in), or each time you log in.
[20:05] <fastkeys38> MrMist: Do you have some spare drives you could try builing an array on and then partitioning/formatting to prove the controller/OS are OK together?
[20:05] <TomTheBomb__> whatever happened to ifrename from dapper?
[20:05] <soundray> JakeMon: spend a little time with it, it's worth it
[20:05] <MrMist> fastkeys38: I'm quite sure nothing has happened to them. they were fine 2 hours ago
[20:06] <ubuntu> helpuu
[20:06] <Doonznix> im lookin at upgrading my ubuntu box. Im looking at installing my os on a software based Raid 5. But my question is i currently have another raid 5 array built when i do the reinstall will i loose the other array ( Its on its own raid card only contains data and it as well is another software base raid setup)
[20:06] <zume> Die Orca die.
[20:06] <fastkeys38> MrMist: So what changed?
[20:06] <gambi> soundray, guess it dosnt matter :P how do I do it?
[20:06] <x0mega24x> I'm having trouble moving files on my desktop,  when i drag and drop it copies the file rather than move it. Holding down the shift key prevents it from copying but I was wondering how to get it back to the default setting so I don't have to do that...
[20:06] <MrMist> fastkeys38: I installed a new OS on a SSD
[20:06] <soundray> !startup > gambi
[20:06] <fastkeys38> MrMist: Firmware upgrade? Disk order? OS upgrade?
[20:06] <fastkeys38> MrMist: OK - what was the previous OS?
[20:06] <MrMist> fastkeys38: New OS..
[20:06] <soundray> !boot > gambi
[20:07] <ubuntu> alguem ai sabe como eu uso o ubuntu?
[20:07] <MrMist> fastkeys38: http://www.open-e.com/
[20:07] <MrMist> fastkeys38: based on debian
[20:07] <soundray> Is there a tool in Ubuntu to find out the hardware address of another host on the LAN?
[20:07] <mongolai> I seem to recall that there was an apt management tool a few years ago that was frowned upon, and it may have been aptitude. If that is the case, is aptitude considered OK nowadays?
[20:07] <JakeMon> soundray: last time i just tried to install subversion from aptitude it installed over 6gb worth of stuff haha
[20:07] <ubuntu> hellp
[20:07] <kakoonia> hey.. im looking for a good program for dj'ing a little party, something that can fade away songs and stuff and bring in some other.. and some nice visualisation that maybe come with it for an external screen.. any ideas?
[20:07] <Pici> !br | ubuntu
[20:08] <thiebaude> mongolai:i used aptitude and didn't like it
[20:08] <regeya> kakoonia:  don't know about the viz but amarok will do it, party playlist and all.
[20:08] <x0mega24x> why don't you like aptitude?
[20:08] <mongolai> thiebaude:  did it mess up your system, or did you just not like the interface?
[20:08] <fastkeys38> MrMist: It's not one I'm familiar with. Perhaps the partition table has been blanked accidently when you installed the new OS?
[20:08] <Pici> ubuntu: escribe /j #ubuntu-br
[20:08] <fastkeys38> MrMist: Something like gparted might be able to guess the partition table for you and restore it
[20:09] <thiebaude> mongolai:i could not add any packages
[20:09] <JakeMon> soundray: x0mega24x: i used my arrow keys to get on top of the svn package and when i clicked "g" i think it was to download and install then it started installing that and a whole bunch of crazy so called dependencies... apt-get didn't put even 2% of the things aptitude did... maybe i used it wrong? idk
[20:09] <TJ-42> I just added a new drive solely to store pictures from my camera and was thinking of just mounting it as /home/myusername/Pictures
[20:09] <TJ-42> How do I make this happen automatically?
[20:09] <soundray> JakeMon: aptitude installs suggested dependencies as well as required ones. You can change that behaviour
[20:09] <zume> I heard there is a TTS (Text To Speech) program for KDE. Anyone tested this on regular ol' Ubuntu?
[20:09] <brian_> I need to disable the right click menu in gnome.
[20:09] <dankan> hi all
[20:09] <brian_> Is this possible
[20:10] <dankan> I'have a problem. When I press customize in the toolbar is all mess up! is there a way to restore firefox without reinstall all plugins?
[20:10] <thiebaude> im getting to the love the CLI more than the GUI
[20:10] <kakoonia> regeya : is there a good gnome app for it? beside amarok, that is currently my default solution.
[20:10] <CSWookie> fastkeys38: Nope.  It still hates me.
[20:10] <kansan> how do i format /dev/sdc1 to fat16?  from the command line?  gparted is taking forever to scan for devices and it looks broken :(
[20:10] <thiebaude> i use amiwm and i enter commands to start a program
[20:10] <soundray> JakeMon: man aptitude is useful
[20:11] <x0mega24x> I'm having trouble moving files on my desktop,  when i drag and drop it copies the file rather than move it. Holding down the shift key prevents it from copying but I was wondering how to get it back to the default setting so I don't have to do that...
[20:11] <fastkeys38> CSWookie: Sorry then dude. I've no other suggestions. #fail :(
[20:11] <CSWookie> What's the command-line way to say, "What things have I installed with a name of *flash*?"?
[20:11] <soundray> CSWookie: 'dpkg -l \*flash\*'
[20:11] <x0mega24x> maybe apropos?
[20:12] <soundray> CSWookie: that wouldn't, however, find gnash for example
[20:12] <dankan> no one?
[20:12] <zume> *Silently shakes fist at Orca and anyone who likes it*
[20:12] <thiebaude> haha zzume
[20:12] <CSWookie> soundray: I've previously tried and removed gnash.
[20:12] <thiebaude> zume
[20:12] <x0mega24x> so anyone know how to change the default drag and drop behaviors on the desktop?  mine started copying files rather than moving them
[20:12] <mongolai> zume:  what is it you don't like. is it the voices?
[20:12] <thiebaude> i tried gnash before and it was a no-go
[20:13] <Daremonai> http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/compiling-linux-kernel-26.html <-- followed this to compiling kernel, and on boot am getting this: failed to execute /init kernel panic - not syncing: no init found.   It's just aweful. I have to go through some crazy terminal thing to turn it on, then it takes an hour to turn it back off because it ignores some clicks. Its slow. It kills me inside.
[20:14] <diskin> dankan, do you have 'restore defaults' in customize? like that: https://url.odesk.com/a1x8p
[20:14] <zume> Other than Orca, I'm peachy keen :P
[20:14] <x0mega24x> fastkeys38: no,  all my keys are working fine, I've tried multiple reboots, digging through ~/.nautilus looking for something that might be useful,  google, im stumped
[20:15] <mongolai> zume:  are you familiar with TTS apps in general?
[20:15] <zume> Mongolai, thank you for asking. I absolutly love TTS and in Windows used to use many of them. My favorite was ReadPlease2003. I hope I might be able to emulate this program.
[20:16] <x0mega24x> what process handles drag and drop events?
[20:16] <fastkeys38> xOmega24x: If you make a new user account and logon as that, does it revert to normal?
[20:16] <x0mega24x> i'll try that and get back to you
[20:17] <diskin> x0mega24x, maybe it copies when destination is on another filesystem?
[20:17] <mongolai> zume:  TTS is one of those things where the proprietary folks seem to have the upper hand. I have experimented with TTS and TTS programming, but on windows 2000 (although recently). Lemme see if I can find some of the tools that I used...
[20:17] <MrMist> fastkeys38: hmm... seems like LVM has been used to make the partitions in it. Do you know anything about that ?
[20:17] <fastkeys38> MrMist: Yeah - a bit. It should still have a partition table though when you fdisk -l on it.
[20:18] <zume> Mongolai: Thank you so much! I'm fairly comfortable with Ubuntu/Gnome, but I'm not technically oriented at all. So be easy on me. :)
[20:18] <pisse> My sound in Firefox doesn't work, eg youtube. I've tried a few tricks but no success.. anyone who can help? Is there a good how-to I've missed?
[20:18] <mongolai> zume:  I'll try :) the programs might suggest a significant learning curve, though...
[20:19] <fastkeys38> MrMist: Ubuntu should just pickup LVM and put it in /dev/something/somethingelse where the first is the volume group name and the second is the volume name
[20:19] <x0mega24x> Yes everything works fine in the other account
[20:19] <zume> Mongolai: Anything is possible. I too shall seek out ways to make TTS work. I love TTS, as with audiobooks, I can play in fast forward and really hear many hours of audio in a short amount of time. It's like speed-hearing, lol.
[20:19] <Administrateur> hello. i need help to configure my wifi, someone's expert?
[20:19] <fastkeys38> xOmega24x: You're right it being gnome settings then. No idea which one though?!
[20:19] <mongolai> zume:  how familliar are you with TTS technology? That is -- do you have a basis of understanding of how TTS works?
[20:20] <max|-> who have install wifi with RT73 or 28 ?
[20:20] <fastkeys38> xOmega24x: Are you particularly attached to your gnome prefs? You could blow away your .gconf .gconf2 directories
[20:20] <zume> Mongolai: No, unfortinuatly, I'm not familiar with the underlying tech. I know there are 3 compartments: the voice, the engine, and the front-end graphics.
[20:20] <fastkeys38> xOmega24x: or at least move them temporarily
[20:20] <x0mega24x> would they rebuild?
[20:21] <Administrateur> How can i change my name in this channel?
[20:21] <fastkeys38> xOmega24x: If they don't autobuild, there must be a defaults set in /etc/skel as that's the only place they'll get copied from
[20:21] <JakeMon> rpm -qa doesn't seem to work with... how do i query what packages are already installed?
[20:21] <RolfCoptr> Administrateur: "/nick NewName"
[20:21] <fastkeys38> xOmega24x: Worst case is you move them, and they don't rebuild, so you log in as failsafe session and put them back
[20:21] <zume> Mongolai: If I remember right, M$ used to call the engine "SAPI".
[20:21] <XFM> RolfCoptr: tks
[20:22] <XFM> Is there an appropriate channel for wifi configuration?
[20:22] <mongolai> zume:  that's basically correct. The voice is terribly important. This is the part where the proprietary software companies really have the upper hand. Things like AT&T's "Natural Voices", and even Microsoft's Voices (Like MS Sam!) are where the TTS chain really breaks down in other systems. And yes, MS calls TTS SAPI
[20:23] <x0mega24x> still have the same problem.  i'm gonna try rebooting with them gone and cross my fingers
[20:23] <RolfCoptr> XFM: i dunno, depends
[20:23] <RolfCoptr> depends what your problem ist
[20:23] <DrX> how do you view your RAID driver version?
[20:23] <fastkeys38> xOmega24x: ok
[20:23] <x0mega24x> could I replace them with the ones from my other account?
[20:23] <sdh> "# commented out by update-manager, HAL is now used
[20:23] <zume> Mongolai: My brother has registered three AT&T Natural Voices. Expensive buggers. So I do have those, but no way to use them, haha.
[20:23] <MrMist> fastkeys38: Hmm... then i don't know
[20:24] <fastkeys38> xOmega24x: I've never tried it. In theory I supose so - but you'll need to fix the permissions up
[20:24] <mongolai> zume:  there's also the phoneme parser. This is the part that actually breaks down the written text into phonemes, or "sound particles" These phonemes are what the voice engine uses to decide what sounds to play. And this is why the voice modules are *so* omportant...
[20:24] <mongolai> zume:  they might help..
[20:25] <fastkeys38> MrMist: Try booting a gparted live cd - see what it thinks the partition table is. If it sees LVM partitions then it could be an ubuntu specific issue
[20:25] <XFM> RolfCoptr: I have an ubuntu that is unable to connect to my wifi networks. the network works (windows can access) i think that there are perhap's several drivers installed for same card. Do you know how to uninstall everithinhg and reinstall properly one driver, aircrack for exemple?
[20:25] <zume> Mongolai: That is really good information on TTS. I wasn't aware of the PhonemeParser.
[20:25] <x0mega24x> nope no good
[20:25] <sfears> XFM what kind of wireless card do you have?
[20:25] <RolfCoptr> XFM: can you see the networks?
[20:25] <XFM> sfears: 2200BG Wireless
[20:25] <sfears> is that a linksys?
[20:26] <fastkeys38> xOmega24x: Hmm. I'd have thought Nautillus etc settings would be under .gconf or .gconf2. Maybe not then
[20:26] <Myyoga> hey guys, I have a couple of ISO files I would like to mount and then run to install stuff on Wine, How do I mount the iso image?
[20:26] <XFM> RolfCoptr: yes, I see them, then wicd says it is connected, but i can't even ping my adsl box
[20:26] <RolfCoptr> XFM: do you get an ip assignedß
[20:27] <RolfCoptr> does syslog give any hint?
[20:27] <_luser> myyoga - mount loop device
[20:27] <fastkeys38> Myyoga: mount -o loop /path/to/iso.iso /path/to/mountpoint
[20:27] <Puppy> All i really have to say is Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
[20:27] <Puppy> lol
[20:27] <Puppy> ive never spent so long on 1 problem in my life
[20:27] <thiebaude> lol
[20:27] <XFM> sfears: I have months ago tried to install other drivers, I fear that I have install some shits and made conflicts
[20:27] <Puppy> i give up, im staying on XP
[20:27] <mongolai> zume:   the reason I tell you that is because there are plenty of decent phoneme parsers, even open source that will do a good job, but one needs good voice modules to use them well :) there is one that I've experimented with called "eSpeak" that is a good parser, and some of the supplied voices are, er, OK, but nowhere near as good as the "Natural Voices", or even the Microsoft voices...
[20:28] <x0mega24x> fastkeys38:  do you know much about the .nautilus folder?
[20:28] <sfears> Puppy what's wrong?
[20:28] <Puppy> sfears - http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=2ZOVGfH6Dbk
[20:28] <XFM> RolfCoptr: If I use DHCP, I can't connect, but if I precise an IP in the good range, Wicd connects
 is there a graphical way of doing it?
[20:28] <fastkeys38> xOmega24x: Just looking now. I'd be inclined to do the same as before. Move it somewhere else, then logout/in and see if that changes thingsw
[20:29] <x0mega24x> just seems to have a bunch of xml files with default positions
[20:29] <zume> Mongolai: eSpeak, eh? Is that some kind of script, program, or chunk of code? Is there a file extension? I think if I can track it down, I could get someone to help me impliment it.
[20:29] <RolfCoptr> xfm: put syslog info to pastebin
[20:29] <x0mega24x> well lets give that a shot
[20:30] <zume> Mongolai: Here is an interesting page on KDE's TTS. Have you tried it? http://accessibility.kde.org/developer/kttsd/
[20:30] <mongolai> zume:  It's sort of a "middle man". It is a phoneme parser and a collection of voices, but that's about it. It's *NOT* a screen reader
[20:30] <XFM> RolfCoptr: I don't know syslog, is it a cmd?
[20:30] <qah> What is the package name for the theora libs?
[20:31] <zume> Mongolai: Middle men can come in quite handy if we find someone who is good at getting the code to dance.
[20:31] <x0mega24x> fastkeys38: *sigh* just like I thought, thats just icon positions
[20:31] <fastkeys38> xOmega24x: The other one to try would be .gnome2 if that didn't solve it
[20:31] <qah> What is the package name for the theora libs?
[20:31] <XFM> RolfCoptr: the file /usr/include/syslog.h ??
[20:31] <fastkeys38> xOmega24x: Looking through those are the only likely candidates
[20:31] <RolfCoptr> argh no
[20:31] <sfears> i'm not able to see that puppy.. but do i see that your having a problem with directx?
[20:31] <RolfCoptr> XFM: /var/log/syslog /var/log/messages
[20:32] <Puppy> sfears - nono, i cant even get it to install
[20:32] <Puppy> sfears - just loads to busy box instead of loading the installation apps
[20:32] <sfears> directx doesn't work with linux.. directx is a microsoft thing
[20:32] <thiebaude> puppy:are you using the live cd?
[20:32] <Puppy> sf49 - tryed live, ad alt cd's
[20:32] <qah> What is the package name for the theora libs?
[20:32] <GodfatherofEire> Is there any way to set up the sound so that my comp can play more sound from more than 1 application at once?
[20:32] <Puppy> thiebaude - tryed live and alt
[20:32] <sfears> and programs dependannt on the directx runtime libraries won't function correctally on linux
[20:32] <sfears> without proper hacking of course
[20:33] <x0mega24x>  nope that didn't work either, looks like ill either have to make a new account or get used to the shift key
[20:33] <thiebaude> puppy:did you install ubuntu after you installed windows?
[20:33] <thiebaude> did
[20:33] <mongolai> zume:  that's true :) Also, there is "Festival" which is another TTS engine. I haven't used this one, but it seems promising. At any rate, I'm sorry I can't just say "Use (such and such) because it's the best", because I haven't found that myself, but at least maybe you have a few more ideas ?!
[20:33] <RolfCoptr> XFM: the relevat lines only, ofcoz
[20:33] <Puppy> thiebaude - yeah, but i have a seperate HD for Ubuntu ready to go
[20:33] <qah> What package name should I type into apt-get to install the theora lib files?
[20:33] <sfears> what are you trying to install puppy?
[20:33] <Puppy> thiebaude - shoudl i try removing the windows drive ?
[20:33] <thiebaude> oh ok,puppy
[20:33] <Puppy> sfears - Ubuntu lol
[20:33] <fastkeys38> xOmega24x: Sorry. No other ideas. I'd suggest moving data etc in to a new account rather than living with it. Things like that get you down after a while :D
[20:34] <XFM> RolfCoptr: ok sorry its a bit long, but i'm not on the good pc so I need to move file
[20:34] <admin_masu3701> hello
[20:34] <fastkeys38> xOmega24x: Sorry I couldn't fix it
[20:34] <thiebaude> i dont know,puppy
[20:34] <sfears> ohh.. IC, what method of install are you using?
[20:34] <Puppy> sfears thiebaude - ive been pissing about with this for 3 days now lol, i dont know either
[20:34] <XFM> RolfCoptr
[20:34] <thiebaude> puppy:how big are the hard drives?
[20:34] <qah> What package name should I type into apt-get to install the theora lib files?
[20:34] <x0mega24x> 's alright,  i appreciate the help.  the funny thing is this is a replacement account for the last one which had all the emerald title bars die on me
[20:34] <Puppy> thiebaude - 320 / 80
[20:35] <x0mega24x> cest la vie
[20:35] <qah> What package name should I type into apt-get to install the theora lib files?
[20:35] <LjL> !repeat | qah
[20:35] <thiebaude> puppy:can you afford the re-install xp?
[20:35] <zume> Mongolai: You've given me some really great ideas! I sucessfully installed KMouth from Ubuntu's Add/Remove. It seems easy and its running, but I cant get it to speak. I think I have some tinkering to do. :D
[20:35] <diskin> x0mega24x, could it be that another account uses compiz (or doesn't use)?
[20:35] <Puppy> thiebaude - why woudl i reinstall when i can jst tkae the hd out ?
[20:35] <qah> ubootu: okay
[20:35] <LjL> qah: i'm thinking that searching for "theora" in Synaptic, or typing "apt-cache search theora", would tell you very quickly.
[20:35] <thiebaude> puppy:ok, good suggestion
[20:35] <TJ-42> what does the "relatime" option mean in fstab?  I can find few details on this.
[20:36] <qah> LjL: Oh okay.
[20:36] <XFM> RolfCoptr: too many lines, what do I choose the relevant lines?
[20:36] <Puppy> thiebaude - shall i try that, just put the formatteddrive in ?
[20:36] <x0mega24x> no its the same basic settings,  I'm gonna  just do a new account
[20:36] <qah> LjL: Thx
[20:36] <x0mega24x> well see yah guys
[20:36] <LjL> TJ-42: normally, every time you access a file, the file's "last access time" information is updated on the disk
[20:36] <thiebaude> yes, puppy, lets try to get this thing working
[20:36] <mongolai> zume:  I almost forgot!! For win32 there is PyTTS -- this is what I was using. It is a set of Python modules for windows that uses MS's SAPI to create an easy interface for the TTS API. If you are so inclined, it would probably work in WINE.
[20:36] <thiebaude> lets try one hd
[20:36] <Puppy> thiebaude - its on this machine, so ill need to drop off to get it on lol
[20:36] <LjL> TJ-42: that causes more disk writes than necessary, so the "noatime" option can be used to stop that behavior. but "noatime" fools some backup programs and other things
[20:36] <RolfCoptr> XFM: decide for yourself, what appears to be network/dhcp/wifi relevant
[20:36] <thiebaude> kewl, puppy
[20:36] <Puppy> thiebaude - ill go try it now :D *grabs his screw driver *
[20:37] <qah> LjL: What did you say I have to type again.
[20:37] <qah> ?
[20:37] <thiebaude> and i grab my heienken
[20:37] <zume> Mongolai: Thats really good news, I shall give it the old college try. :D
[20:37] <LjL> TJ-42: so "relatime" is a compromise that avoids writing that information *most* of the time (although i don't remember exactly when it does and when it does not), but enough of the times that those programs need
[20:37] <SchneeSchwarz> TJ-42: "man mount", then type "/relatime"
[20:37] <mongolai> zume:  well, good luck. Perhaps KMouth will be just what you need :)
[20:37] <LjL> qah: i think i said "apt-cache search theora"
[20:37] <TJ-42> LjL: ah thank you
[20:37] <qah> Oh okay. Thanks
[20:37] <zume> Mongolai: My UbuntuForums username is roycebarber.com so let me know there if you find any TTS method that we can spread to the world.
[20:38] <TJ-42> SchneeSchwarz: Ah I see, I was looking in the man page for fstab and it had no details on it
[20:38] <qah> That worked thanks
[20:38] <mongolai> zume:  gotcha! cool beans
[20:38] <TJ-42> so relatime should generally be used?  I noticed that's the default for the drives detected during installation.
[20:39] <mistform> yo
[20:39] <admin_masu3701> hi
[20:39] <mistform> i need to resize my ubuntu partition.
[20:39] <LjL> zume, mongolai: Festival is most definitely the widest used free speech synthesis engine (at least for English, although it supports a few other languages). you can see a list of programs, including graphical front-ends, that use it by typing "apt-cache rdepends festival"
[20:39] <fastkeys38> TJ-42: I'd have thought it would make little difference on a single home PC. On a server with millions of files and hundreds of concurrent accesses it makes a huge difference
[20:40] <mistform> it would be best to do it via liveCD, I understand.
[20:40] <mistform> the only ububntu CD I haev is an old Dapper/Edgy CD
[20:40] <blue112> Hello, how can I downgrade KRDC ?
[20:40] <mongolai> LjL:  that's interesting. I knew it was well renown, but now I'm more intrigued!
[20:40] <lovebot> no
[20:40] <TJ-42> fastkeys38: oh ok, thanks
[20:41] <GleepGlop> mistform: is should work. yeh, never try to resize a mounted filesystem
[20:41] <admin_masu3701> hellloooooooooo
[20:41] <LjL> mongolai, zuma: specifically, "gnome-orca" and "lsr" are two graphical applications that act as "screen readers", basically saying aloud anything on the screen
[20:41] <mistform> GleepGlop, have you ever done a liveCD from a USB stick?
[20:41] <GleepGlop> mistform: yes
[20:41] <mistform> is there anything particular required? other than mounting the ISO on the drive
[20:41] <GleepGlop> mistform: you mean booting a livecd image that is on a USB stick?
[20:42] <mistform> and selecting to boot from USB
[20:42] <mistform> yeah
[20:42] <zume> LjL: Very cool. I will have to research Festival. I typed the command you gave into Terminal, and it brought up some weird text, but I suspect I'll eventually figure it out. :D
[20:42] <GleepGlop> mistform: yeah, it gparted should see your hard disks
[20:42] <_786soul> Would anyone be able to help me with a small problem? I've got ubuntu 8.04 booting off a SD card, but after typing in username and pass all I get is a blank screen with mouse but nothing to click. Desktop doesn't load at all. What should I do?
[20:42] <GleepGlop> strike *it
[20:43] <Puppy> thiebaude - didnt work, but i found sometign out
[20:43] <mistform> GleepGlop, I just installed gparted onto my drive. does the Ubuntu liveCD have Gparted on it?
[20:43] <Puppy> thiebaude - its tryign to read the floppy drive !!!!
[20:43] <mistform> i wasn't sure if it would be gparted or another
[20:43] <DrX> why would the dmesg file appear to contain garbage and then turn the command prompt into garbage characters after you tail or edit it?
[20:43] <thiebaude> hmm, puppy
[20:43] <GleepGlop> mistformed: yes, the ubuntu livecd has gparted
[20:43] <Puppy> thiebaude - indeed :D
[20:43] <mistform> kk then
[20:43] <mongolai> _786soul:  did you create a username/password
[20:43] <Pici> DrX: How are you tailing or editing it?
[20:43] <mistform> GleepGlop, thanks for the reassurance :).
[20:43] <Puppy> thiebaude - its somethign new to point me in a new direction
[20:43] <thiebaude> puppy pm me
[20:43] <mistform> i'll be headed out now, Later #ubuntu
[20:43] <GleepGlop> mistformed: there is also a gparted livecd that has saved my ass many times
[20:44] <DrX> vi /bin/dmesg or tail /bin/dmesg
[20:44] <LjL> TJ-42, fastkeys38: even on a home computer, while the performance hit may in most case be almost negligible, it's not completely negligible. that's because, even in normal computer usage, several small files are often read in a row, and these files are often well scattered on the disk, so updating atime will involve a lot of drive head "seeks", which take time. they also move the head more than required, theoretically shortening the drive's lifespan
[20:44] <DrX> Pici: or gedit /bin/dmesg
[20:44] <_786soul> mongolai: I'm pretty sure I did. I typed ctrl+alt+f2 to bring up CLI and login worked there to get me to the root
[20:44] <Pici> DrX: Thats the actualy binary there, you don't want to touch that.
[20:44] <nomike> good evening
[20:44] <GleepGlop> mistformed: no prob, be careful and think twice before applying
[20:44] <mongolai> _786soul:  so you can log in in the CLI then? If so, are you there now?
[20:44] <isilion> hi!!! Someone expert in ATI or Radeon Users please reply this post ->>>> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=955783
[20:45] <Pirate_Hunter> what is gnome-art-ng i've read the info but couldnt find examples of it online, can someone explain, isit similar to theme switcher in gnome or something?
[20:45] <LjL> in other words, unless you just need to know files' access times for some reason, there's no reason to do the atime updating, and there are several theoretically sound (although *perhaps* practically negligible) reasons to avoid doing it
[20:45] <PA-Carry> Could some one help me with starting Samba?
[20:45] <_786soul> Yes I'm at the CLI now. I want to get the desktop to come up though. ctrl + alt +f7 only bring up that blank non-loading screen with the mouse
[20:45] <TJ-42> LjL: good to know, thank you LjL.  You're always very helpful :-).
[20:46] <DrX> Pici:  where's the text version?
[20:46] <XFM> RolfCoptr: http://paste.ubuntu.com/61166/
[20:46] <mongolai> _786soul:  just a sec, lemme try to find the apropos log file...
[20:46] <nomike> re
[20:46] <Pici> DrX: use tail /var/log/kern.log   if you want to look at the file itself, or maybe /var/log/messages or /var/log/syslog , depending on what you are looking for
[20:46] <_786soul> mongolai: Thank you
[20:47] <DrX> Pici: I'm trying to find my hardware RAID driver version
[20:47] <case^> woo utorrent 1.8.1 works lovely under wine
[20:47] <CSWookie> fastkeys38: After getting rid of the swfplugin thing that came with the computer, flash 10 has made the world beautiful. Thanks for your help.
[20:47] <mongolai> _786soul:  are you using IRC from *that* particular computer right now?
[20:48] <_786soul> mongolai: No im on another laptop right now. The one with the problem is beside me
[20:48] <XFM> RolfCoptr:and my syslog seams to be always the same
[20:48] <RolfCoptr> monitor it while trying to connect to a wlan
[20:49] <mongolai> _786soul:  ok good. That might help. So, do you know about pastebin?
[20:49] <Pici> DrX: /var/log/kern.log contains the same information as dmesg
[20:49] <XFM> RolfCoptr: http://paste.ubuntu.com/61171/
[20:49] <nomike> I'm here at my brother and try to install ubuntu 8.04 on his asus laptop. He has a "Atheros Communications Inc. AR242x 802.11abg Wireless PCI Express Adapter (rev 01)" WLAN card, but iwconfig or any other network utility doesn't show it. There is a notice in the system tray that proprietary drivers are loaded and acive for the card ("Atheros Hardware Access Layer (HAL)" and "Support for Atheros 802.11 wireless LAN cards."
[20:49] <mongolai> _786soul:  like XFM ^^
[20:49] <_786soul> mongolai: Not too much but I know people post stuff up for others to read?
[20:49] <fastkeys38> CSWookie: Woot. Glad to be of help.
[20:49] <nomike> did I do anything wrong?
[20:49] <mongolai> _786soul:  right...
[20:50] <_786soul> mongolai: Need me to put something up on it?
[20:50] <XFM> mongolai: yes, hard day
[20:50] <mongolai> _786soul:  I just realized it might be hard for you to do that....
[20:50] <mongolai> _786soul:  ...just a sec....
[20:50] <RolfCoptr> XFM: Oct 22 18:58:29 xfm-laptop dhclient: There is already a pid file /var/run/dhclient.pid with pid 134519072
[20:50] <RolfCoptr> mmmh
[20:50] <_786soul> Haha yeah not the that comp.
[20:50] <fastkeys38> Got to go. Cheers all.
[20:51] <kthakore> hi ppl I am trying to capture sound that gets send to /dev/snd to a file with some encoding how do I do that
[20:51] <XFM> RolfCoptr: seen that, what's the meaning?
[20:51] <RolfCoptr> i'm unsure if it's serious
[20:51] <kushalsejwal> my webcam is working with Cheese. So this confirms that my webcam is getting detected and I can use it with other programs like skype too?
[20:51] <XFM> RolfCoptr: when I execute dhclient it says that
[20:52] <RolfCoptr> but while trying to acquire a dhcp lease there's already a dhclient detected running... anyways, dhcp seems to work in _some_ way, coz the client releases an ip
[20:52] <djungelkraem> why is packages.ubuntu.com down?
[20:52] <masu3701> hello
[20:52] <metac0m> quit
[20:52] <RolfCoptr> XFM: what do you use for network connecting? nm-applet?
[20:52] <TJ-42> ok I just created a new ext3 partition and assigned it a label with e2label.  It shows up fine (including the label) in 'blkid', but it's missing from /dev/disk/by-label  why would this be?
[20:52] <agnitio> I need some help installing ubuntu from a usb drive, is there a simple way to go about it?
[20:52] <XFM> RolfCoptr: no, Wicd
[20:52] <RolfCoptr> XFM: and why do you start a dhclient manually?
[20:53] <PA-Carry> how do I start samba?
[20:53] <DavidCanarias1> I used dvd95 converter for the first time yesterday and its great except the DVD I burned din't have any sound? Does anyone know why???
[20:53] <XFM> RolfCoptr: when I execture dhclient, it says that i already have a PID file. Then he kills old process and removes PID file
[20:53] <RolfCoptr> to be honest, i didn't use wicd so far, but i think you shouldn't have to care about a dhclient running
[20:53] <RolfCoptr> mmh, ok
[20:53] <erUSUL> PA-Carry: sudo /etc/init.d/samba start ?
[20:53] <TJ-42> PA-Carry: http://www.ubuntux.org/how-to-start-restart-stop-samba-from-the-command-line
[20:53] <RolfCoptr> and wifi authentication works fine? do you see your node on your AP?
[20:53] <XFM> RolfCoptr: just followed a tutorial to resolve my problem
[20:54] <XFM> RolfCoptr: ok
[20:54] <PA-Carry> Thanks TJ-42
[20:55] <mongolai> _786soul:  ok. Just look at the last line of /var/log/Xorg.0.log    <- that's a 0 in the middle.  Can you tell us if the last line starts with an (EE)? Or if there any lines that start with (EE) ?
[20:56] <XFM> RolfCoptr: in the logs, apparently my drivers are ipw2200 . In my dir /kernel/drivers/net/wireless, I have lots of files, apparently from different drivers. Don't u think this could cause conflicts? How can I remove everithing and install one driver

[20:56] <ninjafury> HELP! I've got an external HD and when I delete a file, ubuntu copies it to my main drive's trash folder.... why?
[20:56] <mongolai> zume:  good luck, mate!!

[20:57] <cris1234> hi i'm a new ubuntu user, and y need an uml modeling tool that includes GUI modeling. i've already tried DIA and KIVIO but none of them has a stencil for GUI desing. do you know any tool that has that type of stencil?
[20:58] <DavidCanarias1> Anybody here use dvd95 converter???
[20:59] <_luser> ninjafury - does this happen when you delete from the command line?
[20:59] <chris4585> how does a group relate to a command?
[20:59] <ninjafury> _luser: no, only through thunar
[20:59] <hasanibrahim> good days everybody
[20:59] <ubuntu_todd> I wanner find the file which has the text FIREFOX_DSP, is there any command so that I can do that?
[20:59] <KevinO> hello i just reinstalled ubuntu now i cannot get flash to work, any ideas?
[20:59] <tulipan> should "fonts:///" as url in nautilus still work?
[20:59] <hasanibrahim> i have a problem with vbox
[20:59] <chris4585> or how does a group correspond to a command?
[21:00] <chris4585> hasanibrahim, what is the problem?
[21:00] <biouser> what might be the best way to run a windows installer that connects to a webapp from within ubuntu?
[21:00] <hasanibrahim> There is a window called spawning session
[21:00] <_luser> ninjafury - good, so it's not ubuntu as such doing this, it's just some buggy application.
[21:00] <mongolai> ubuntu_todd:  find or locate perhaps?
[21:00] <hasanibrahim> and couldn't open os
[21:01] <ninjafury> _luser: is there a way to fix this though?
[21:01] <XFM> Someone knows where are installed the hardware drivers, and how to remove them?
[21:01] <chris4585> hasanibrahim, there should be more clues then just that
[21:01] <TJ-42> how do I get the system to update /dev/disk/by-label and /dev/disk/by-uuid ?  I created a new partition and labeled it, and the partition shows up in neither, only by-path and by-id.
[21:01] <soundray> ninjafury: try holding down Shift when you delete. That should delete irreversibly instead of moving to trash
[21:02] <biouser> where is a good howto for using vmware to access windows partition while in my favorite OS, ubuntu...
[21:02] <hasanibrahim> chris4585: i click vbox from applications system tools
[21:02] <hasanibrahim> than click os to start
[21:02] <hasanibrahim> but it's not starting
[21:02] <hasanibrahim> there is a window writing on "spawning session"
[21:02] <RolfCoptr> zum koptern?
[21:02] <ninjafury> soundray: Is there a way to make it use a trash folder on the external drive?
[21:02] <RolfCoptr> ww
[21:02] <hasanibrahim> i wait for about 50 minutes
[21:02] <hasanibrahim> but it didn't open
[21:03] <mongolai> ninjafury:  you said that delete just copies files to trash?
[21:03] <chris4585> hasanibrahim, I'm not too sure, try google is all I can help
[21:03] <ninjafury> mongolai: it copies to trash on main hard drive, as opposed to external drive
[21:04] <soundray> ninjafury: don't know, sorry. Isn't there a help menu or man page for thunar?
[21:04] <mongolai> ninjafury:  OK, so "deleted file" fron 2nd HDD is copied to .Trash on 1st HDD when you hit delete then? Is this more in the ballpark?
[21:04] <ubuntu_todd> mongolai: that finds the file name not the text in it
[21:04] <ninjafury> mongolai: exactly
[21:04] <hasanibrahim> is tehere anybody who has an idea ?;
[21:05] <mongolai> ninjafury:  and you just want the file deleted totally when you say so?
[21:05] <smoovep> Anyone here Uses RoundCube??
[21:05] <noriyuki> whats the server for ubuntu intrepid?

[21:06] <noriyuki> whats the server for ubuntu intrepid?
[21:06] <soundray> noone00110011: standard in Ubuntu is evolution
[21:07] <ninjafury> noone00110011: just google for calendar apps
[21:07] <soundray> !intrepid > noriyuki
[21:07] <ubuntu_todd> noriyuki: #ubuntu+1
[21:07] <noriyuki> noone00110011, I dont know any but evolution.. but you can try typing in google "calendar" or organizer for ubunutu
[21:07] <Ursus88> Does anybody mind if I ask a rather newbie question about ubuntu-eee on a bootable USB?
[21:07] <Stevex> thiebaude - hey man
[21:07] <mongolai> ninjafury:  Then, you basically want the "deleted" file to be moved to.Trash, ostensibly so you can un-delete it should you choose to, but you'd like the .Trash file to map to the physical HDD that the deleted file resides upon?
[21:07] <noone00110011> cool guys thanx for all the suggestions
[21:07] <thiebaude> hi stevex
[21:07] <Daremonai> http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/compiling-linux-kernel-26.html <-- followed this to compiling kernel, and on boot am getting this: failed to execute /init kernel panic - not syncing: no init found. Try passing init= option to kernel
[21:07] <SchneeSchwarz> !ask | Ursus88
[21:07] <noone00110011> really appreciate it ;)
[21:08] <ninjafury> mongolai: exactly
[21:08] <Ursus88> Gotcha.
[21:09] <rniamo_> hi, is there somebody who know how allow anonymous checkout for subversion ?
[21:09] <KevinO>
[21:09] <Ursus88> Okay ... I have ubuntu-eee 8.04.1 on a bootable USB stick.  I was wondering, when using essentially a "live CD" on a USB stick if I should be able to access the Internet.  The reason I ask is that I cannot and I was wondering if that means I won't be able to access AFTER I install ubuntu-eee either.
[21:09] <charles> heya guys, i got a slight problem i cannot boot any kind of live cd, i tried both gentoo and ubuntu's
[21:10] <charles> when i run the ubuntu live cd i get some major error about src0 drive something
[21:10] <charles> im running it with the noapic start flag
[21:10] <charles> anyone got any suggestions?
[21:10] <biouser> anyone know of the latest vmware howto/documentation for Hardy?
[21:10] <KevinO> hello i just reinstalled ubuntu now i cannot get flash to work, any ideas?
[21:11] <thiebaude> KevinO:is flash installed?
[21:11] <soundray> Ursus88: the Eee PC has some rather difficult hardware both for wired and wireless networking
[21:11] <charles> kevin0, download it manualy
[21:11] <ninjafury> KevinO: did you try reinstalling flash?
[21:11] <charles> kevin0, the buildin installer for flash in firefox never works
[21:11] <soundray> Ursus88: what version do you have?
[21:11] <Ursus88> According to the ubuntu-eee website it's supposed to be optimized for the eee.
[21:12] <mongolai> ninjafury:  I wish I could give you a good answer, but I don't think that GNOME does things that way. */.Trash, frankly is a bit of a kludge as it is, and I can see no way that the good GNOME developers had envisioned what you desire. There might be some setting in gconf-editor, but other than that ???
[21:12] <Ursus88> Version of what ... the hardware?  I have an Eee PC 901.
[21:13] <abizmol> How can I create another virtual desktop in ubuntu?
[21:13] <abizmol> Just 2 sux
[21:13] <Ursus88> Ubuntu-eee looks awesome on the 901 ... I'm just concerned that if wireless doesn't work with the live USB stick, it won't work when I install the OS.  I guess I can mucky muck around with it after the fact, but I'd rather avoid as much hassle as I can.
[21:13] <KevinO> thiebaude, charles , I started firefox for the first time, it asked me to install something, cant remember what it was, but there were two of them and i got the "ugly" version as well. In firefox, under plugins, there is a "shockwave flash" and i can enable or disable, i cannot remove it. if i go to adobe and try to install the deb, it says its already installed. i reinstall with the same outcome.
[21:14] <ninjafury> mongolai: Appreciate it. Seems pretty stupid that files would be copied onto a separate drive before being deleted. Waste of drive I/O.
[21:14] <mongolai> Ursus88:  the Asus eee pc computers have a prety good record of playing nice with linux.
