[07:11] <nagchampa> like i said, i had to install using safe mode grpahics
[07:11] <jim_p> nagchampa, for the intel card?
[07:11] <shani^work> jim_p : hold on let me find it
[07:11] <nagchampa> yes jim_p, for the intel card
[07:11] <holycow> .
[07:11] <nagchampa> there is only one card
[07:12] <ZhuchoG> nagchampa, make "intel" in driver
[07:12] <jim_p> nagchampa, the driver for intel cards is named "intel"
[07:12] <nagchampa> the problem is this all or nothing approach ubuntu seems to have
[07:12] <nagchampa> you can't just say, use the normal driver, just disable the desktop effects
[07:13] <gaintsura> hmm, anyone know why initramfs keeps giving me that message?
[07:13] <jim_p> nagappan, but the intel driver can do desktop effects
[07:13] <DarkKnight> hey can anyone help me with this....when i run fsck it shows me this message:  fsck.ext3: Unable to resolve 'UUID=ab5d3f4d-1d37-4614-aad3-d3051671a4db'
[07:14] <nagchampa> yes, i know what the driver is called
[07:14] <dyf> hello.. i have a problem.. when i hit ctrl-alt-f1.. the screen flickers and i can't see the command line
[07:14] <shani^work> jim_p : here is the link of driver : http://www.3dlabs.com/content/Legacy/drivers/driverSelect.asp
[07:14] <_2> DarkKnight use real device addressing
[07:15] <Pilot_51> Does Ubuntu have an Alt+Tab equivalent?
[07:15] <DarkKnight> _2; real device addressing...whats that??
[07:15] <jim_p> shani^work, which one is yours?
[07:15] <jim_p> Pilot_51, yea... alt+tab
[07:15] <_2> DarkKnight fsck /dev/hda9    <<< example only.     blkid  can show what is where...
[07:15] <Pilot_51> Doesn't solve my problem
[07:15] <shani^work> jim_p : Wildcat III 6210
[07:16] <pyrak> where do i find what my graphics card model is and what driver im running?
[07:16] <DarkKnight> _2; how to use blkid
[07:16] <Pilot_51> I ran BF1942 in wine and my monitor doesn't like the resolution so I'm stuck with "Cannot display this video mode"
[07:16] <nibbler> pyrak:  1) lspci 2) lsmod
[07:16] <icnpunk> anyone know how to config conky to make it uncover by windows like a panel?
[07:17] <_2> DarkKnight it's a command
[07:17] <yaris123456789> hey guys when you go to http://www.youjav.com, do u see the site? cuz  all i see is "Hello, you've reached www.YouJav.com".....why is my ISP lagging ?
[07:17] <DarkKnight> _2; i had run the command...but no output
[07:17] <shani^work> jim_p : the current performance of card is 800x600 and the creen i can see is 3/4 of my monitor :/
[07:17] <shani^work> *screen
[07:18] <_2> DarkKnight just returned to the bash prompt ?
[07:18] <jim_p> shani^work, clicking on  Red Hat Linux 9 package downloaded me something
[07:18] <Pilot_51> Oh well I just Ctrl+Alt+Backspaced it
[07:18] <qcjn> i want to reformat my usb key, but i'd like a little help ?
[07:18] <DarkKnight> _2; didnt get u
[07:18] <DarkKnight> _2; didnt get you
[07:18] <jim_p> shani^work, its ready made drivers... but where to put them??
[07:18] <_2> obviously
[07:19] <_2> DarkKnight did the command just returned to the bash prompt ?
[07:19] <luddite> sometimes when firefox is open i get no audio from files on my HD. how can i make FF release the audio?
[07:19] <pyrak> nibbler, how do i locate the graphics driver in lsmod?
[07:19] <shani^work> jim_p : i dnt know too :/ ,  thats my question , how i can install them ?
[07:19] <DarkKnight> _2; yes
[07:19] <nibbler> pyrak: you just have to know how they are called
[07:19] <jim_p> shani^work, let me look it up
[07:19] <shani^work> jim_p : i am waiting for your responce
[07:20] <GodfatherofEire> Whats the terminal command for exiting an application, but not FORCING it to exit? Like, just basically telling it to exit properly?
[07:20] <nibbler> pyrak: fglrx is ati if i'm right, might be mistaken
[07:20] <vermont> what's that one applet thing thats like windows sidebar?
[07:20] <onetinsoldier> qcjn: hello. i have a usb memory stick, but i haven't formatted it. but i am familiar with formatting. what is the question?
[07:20] <pyrak> nibbler, http://pastebin.com/d27068489
[07:21] <_2> DarkKnight then your system isn't seeing any filesystems ....    but that can't be....       idk.
[07:21] <qcjn> onetinsoldier: i played once with that but it's been to long , so i don,t remember. It shows me 2 partition
[07:22] <jim_p> shani^work, there is install.s that does the compile and install
[07:22] <nibbler> pyrak: no idea, try lshw :)
[07:22] <kubuntwo> GodfatherofEire: you can send the desired command using kill -SIGNUM  where SIGNUM is the signal you want to send. i think you want the TERM signal which is number 15
[07:22] <GodfatherofEire> Anybody know what that command would be?
[07:22] <qcjn> onetinsoldier: 1 in fat 16 and 1 in ext2
[07:22] <DarkKnight> _2; actually i have 2 HDD's...one HDD has XP and the other Ubuntu...so before booting i select which HDD i require
[07:22] <shani^work> jim_p : can i install redhat drivers available for my video card on ubuntu ?
[07:22] <GodfatherofEire> kubuntwo thanks
[07:22] <onetinsoldier> qcjn: your usb stick it showing as if it has two partitions? ok
[07:23] <cew_BetE> cew aQ
[07:23] <cew_BetE> blghkljnf
[07:23] <cew_BetE> gkhjfgjhgkjnlg
[07:23] <kubuntwo> GodfatherofEire: welcome. better example: kill -15 13245 (12345 is the PID. you can get it with ps ax)
[07:23] <cew_BetE> BETE
[07:23] <FloodBot2> cew_BetE: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:23] <cew_BetE> BETE
[07:23] <cew_BetE> BETE
[07:23] <FloodBot2> cew_BetE: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:23] <qcjn> onetinsoldier: thats normal with what i ve done. so now i want to make just one in fat
[07:23] <cew_BetE> BETE BANGED
[07:23] <GodfatherofEire> kubuntwo, what if I dont know the PID?
[07:23] <cew_BetE> BETE BANGED
[07:23] <cew_BetE> SEBEL
[07:23] <jim_p> shani^work, its not an actual red hat package. its a zip file containing the sources and a script
[07:23] <cew_BetE> NYEBELIN
[07:23] <FloodBot2> cew_BetE: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:23] <luddite> y audio wont allow multiple apps to play at once
[07:24] <_2> DarkKnight show me the command you typed
[07:24] <onetinsoldier> qcjn: you want to make it so that it's just one partition on there?
[07:24] <kubuntwo> GodfatherofEire: you can check the pid with "ps ax | grep appnametoken" for example if you want to kill pidgin you type "ps ax | grep pidgin" to get its pid
[07:24] <qcjn> onetinsoldier: yes
[07:24] <DarkKnight> _2; u mean blkid
[07:24] <onetinsoldier> qcjn: ok, so use parted or gparted to repartition it
[07:24] <_2> DarkKnight yes full line
[07:24] <dyf> hello.. i have a problem.. when i hit ctrl-alt-f1.. the screen flickers and i can't see the command line
[07:24] <GodfatherofEire> kubuntwo, any simpler way?
[07:24] <DarkKnight> _2; okk a sec
[07:25] <qcjn> onetinsoldier: gparted, is open...how ?
[07:25] <kubuntwo> GodfatherofEire: not from konsole afaik. you can also check the pid with "top"
[07:25] <cew_BetE> gah isok
[07:25] <GodfatherofEire> That doest require opening a terminal (Just trying to get Pidgin, etc to exit properly via GNOME Do)
[07:25] <qcjn> onetinsoldier: unmount first
[07:25] <jim_p> shani^work, the script does make an .rpm file in the end though
[07:25] <onetinsoldier> qcjn: in the far upper right corner you should be able to select the device
[07:25] <vermont> I heard there was something like window's sidebar but i forgot the name of it
[07:25] <qcjn> it is selected
[07:26] <DarkKnight> _2; http://paste.ubuntu.com/90599/
[07:26] <jim_p> shani^work, so better extract the sources and make install it yourself
[07:26] <cew_BetE> cccccccccccccccccuuuuuuuuuuuueeeeeeeeebbbbbbbbbbbbbbeeeeeeeeeeeeeelllllllllllllllllllll
[07:26] <nagchampa> wtf
[07:26] <qcjn> onetinsoldier: it is selected
[07:26] <onetinsoldier> qcjn: yes. you don't want ti mounted while you repartition it or format it. i think gaprted formats it when it's done partitioning
[07:26] <onetinsoldier> it*
[07:26] <ZhuchoG> vermont, screenlets?
[07:27] <_2> DarkKnight bery odd,   can't happen !
[07:27] <vermont> ZhuchoG: I'm not sure i just want like an rss feed a weather thing and a calender
[07:27] <_2> very
[07:28] <GodfatherofEire> kubuntwo, any ideas on what I would use for GNOME Do so that I could shut it down?
[07:28] <DarkKnight> _2; wonder
[07:28] <ZhuchoG> vermont, you may use KDE4 with plasmoids :)
[07:28] <ZhuchoG> or use screenlets
[07:28] <qcjn> onetinsoldier: when i unmount the other one it looks like the first one get's mounted again
[07:29] <qcjn> onetinsoldier: maybe i have to redimension
[07:29] <ZhuchoG> but i like conky for this
[07:29] <kubuntwo> GodfatherofEire: you can simply use the gnome process viewer (dont know what its named in ubuntu because i am on kde). press ctrl+esc to spawn it. there you should be able to kill the processes with the signal you want
[07:29] <onetinsoldier> qcjn: the system is auto-mounting it i think
[07:29] <luddite> i cant kill a process using kill
[07:29] <vermont> zhuchog is that Kubuntu thing, cause I'm running Ubuntu...or does it work on both
[07:30] <_2> DarkKnight maybe try     sudo rm /etc/blkid.tab* ;sudo blkid
[07:30] <GodfatherofEire> kubuntwo, forget it, itd be easier just to close it I think
[07:30] <zeno> how to remove  all old kernels and associated stuff?
[07:30] <zeno> need space
[07:30] <_2> DarkKnight should clear it's cache and rebuild it.
[07:30] <kubuntwo> GodfatherofEire:  :) ok.
[07:30] <onetinsoldier> hey all, how can qcjn keep the system from auto-mounting a usb stick? he wants partition it
[07:30] <qcjn> onetinsoldier: could it be that i have to delete one
[07:31] <onetinsoldier> qcjn: maybe
[07:31] <silv3r_m00n> hi there
[07:31] <silv3r_m00n> how can i add more users ?
[07:31] <DarkKnight> _2; http://paste.ubuntu.com/90602/
[07:31] <GodfatherofEire> onetinsoldier: why not just use umount?
[07:31] <smokeymirror> hey is any help active right now?
[07:31] <_2> DarkKnight yeah that's more like it.
[07:31] <onetinsoldier> GodfatherofEire: he say he has 2 partitions. he umounts one then it auto-mounts the other
[07:32] <DarkKnight> _2; ya..so we need sudo
[07:32] <GodfatherofEire> onetinsoldier, thats odd
[07:32] <ZhuchoG> vermont, screenlets in repository and you dont need  kde for it. conky too
[07:32] <qcjn> GodfatherofEire: that's what i did but when i umont the second one the first one gets mounted again
[07:32] <smokeymirror> hey guys
[07:32] <_2> DarkKnight doesn't need it here, it's possably a group/permissions issue for you.  but at any rate,    the "real" device is the /dev/*  column
[07:32] <onetinsoldier> GodfatherofEire: i thought so too..
[07:32] <vermont> thanks ZhuchoG
[07:32] <GodfatherofEire> Then again, I've never dealt with a partitioned USB key before
[07:33] <smokeymirror> would anyone here be able to help me with tethering and 64bit ubuntu?
[07:33] <shani^work`> Sorry Got DC
[07:33] <qcjn> onetinsoldier: ok, i think i ll try to delete
[07:33] <onetinsoldier> qcjn: are you sure it's auto-mounting? you sure the one partition get mounted when unmount the other? have you checked by typing just 'mount' on a command line?
[07:33] <shani^work`> jim_p : i was got disconnected
[07:33] <paul68> is there a irc channel for questions concerning iptables?
[07:33] <_2> DarkKnight you can compare the uuid from your fsck command and the real device    run fsck on the real device    if it happens to be mounted   either dismount or remount readonly first.
[07:33] <jim_p> shani^work, did you get my last message?
[07:34] <GodfatherofEire> well, sorry I couldnt help, not sure I'd be much help anyway, cause I kinda screwed up my last attempt at partitioning.
[07:34] <shani^work`> jim_p : so you told that in the end it gives .rpm file ? then will it supports the ubuntu 8.10 ?
[07:34] <GodfatherofEire> Suffice it to say, that didnt go well
[07:34] <qcjn> onetinsoldier: i don't really understand you,re proposition
[07:34] <_2> DarkKnight if you need more info just give a yell
[07:34] <qcjn> onetinsoldier: pen the terminal and type ???
[07:35] <jim_p> shani^work, in order to avoid that .rpm, which is not installable on ubuntu, you will compile the driver from source
[07:35] <qcjn> onetinsoldier: open
[07:35] <shani^work`> jim_p : but the source is not available to download :/ ,
[07:35] <onetinsoldier> qcjn: ok, now simply type in -->   mount
[07:35] <zeno> how to remove  all old kernels and associated stuff?
[07:35] <GodfatherofEire> jim_p, theres always alieb
[07:35] <onetinsoldier> zeno: dpkg --purge <package>
[07:35] <GodfatherofEire> !alien | shani^work
[07:36] <DarkKnight> _2; ya...so the problem is with files of the other disk i suppose...bcoz it clearly indicated that they are ntfs paartitions...
[07:36] <kubuntwo> shani^work`: if you really need to install a rpm use "alien" but i dont recommend it :)
[07:36] <jim_p> GodfatherofEire, i dont trust alien. if i have to convert something to a .deb, i'd mbetter build it from source to a .deb
[07:36] <qcjn> onetinsoldier: i can see them
[07:36] <jim_p> shani^work, it is!
[07:36] <onetinsoldier> zeno: might be better to use aptitude... then find the package and use the underscore key
[07:36] <jim_p> shani^work, it is in the file i just downloaded
[07:36] <onetinsoldier> qcjn: so, they show as being mounted?
[07:37] <GodfatherofEire> jim_p, I havent had a problem yet, but I would do the same, but seeing as how its not available, then you gotta do what you have to
[07:37] <qcjn> onetinsoldier: here's one /dev/sdd2 on /media/disk-1 type ext2 (rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=hal)
[07:37] <_2> DarkKnight caution, partition type is not always equal filesystem type.    blkid and fdisk -l   may yeld different types for a given device
[07:37] <jim_p> zeno, dpkg -r package --purge
[07:37] <onetinsoldier> Firefishe: wb, why are you so quiet? :-)
[07:37] <shani^work`> jim_p : so i have to use alien to install it ? or i should recompile it ? i m puzzeld , i have to fix it cause its my job in a company :/
[07:37] <onetinsoldier> qcjn: yep... looks like it's mounted
[07:38] <Firefishe> onetinsoldier:  chatting with people in kde-cafe, and working on learning about documents in kde
[07:38] <jim_p> shani^work, i would compile it from source, and into a .deb if you want
[07:38] <onetinsoldier> Firefishe: roger that
[07:38] <qcjn> onetinsoldier: so the only way out i can think of is deleting one, as soon as i unmount it
[07:38] <shani^work`> jim_p : plz do it, i will be thankful to you
[07:38] <chalcedony> does anyone know if there is a wiki thing that will run on ubuntu?
[07:39] <chalcedony> i decided i like how mediawiki works
[07:39] <qcjn> onetinsoldier: what you think ??
[07:39] <_2> DarkKnight also looking at gparted might be helpful,    just a thought.
[07:39] <onetinsoldier> qcjn: might do the trick, but i think there should be some way to keep the system from auto-mounting either one at all. i'm trying to look and see what i can find. but you can try whatever you want if you want
[07:39] <ushimitsudoki> chalcedony: for your own use? check zim out
[07:40] <chalcedony> ushimitsudoki: yes
[07:40] <qcjn> onetinsoldier: i'd imagine :)
[07:40] <zeno> jim_p, thx
[07:40] <Org-Mode> chalcedony: yeah like ushimitsudoki said, zim is bout the best desktop wiki for linux
[07:40] <chalcedony> ive been using vim ..
[07:40] <Org-Mode> :/
[07:40] <joejc> anyone know if its possible to use an ipod as an external hd to run ubuntu off of
[07:41] <_2> chalcedony vim != zim
[07:41] <konttori>  #content

[07:42] <joejc> so im guesing no one knows or its not possible
[07:43] <qcjn> onetinsoldier: ok, i'm trying that
[07:43] <_2> DarkKnight leading / missing in your post above
[07:43] <onetinsoldier> qcjn: ok, roger
[07:43] <_2> DarkKnight sudo fsck /dev/sda1
[07:43] <eddy> whats going on everybody
[07:44] <DarkKnight> _2; can you say whats missing
[07:44] <eddy> wow lots of users here
[07:44] <DarkKnight> _2; okk
[07:45] <DarkKnight> _2; http://paste.ubuntu.com/90610/
[07:46] <_2> yeah i was wondering if fsck works with ntfs or not
[07:46]  * _2 doesn't do windows
[07:46] <stodan> i changed password with sudo passwd user, and now i have to type old password to unlock default key database, how can i reset it or change password for it? gui in preferences seems to be gone...
[07:46] <qcjn> one now it says it's got 3 operation pending
[07:46] <stodan> (in intrepid)
[07:46] <qcjn> onetinsoldier: now it says it's got 3 operation pending
[07:46] <_2> DarkKnight now too many /'s   remove the last one
[07:47] <_2> DarkKnight sudo fsck /dev/sda1  # just like that
[07:47] <qcjn> onetinsoldier: deleting, redimension and format
[07:47] <onetinsoldier> qcjn: are you saying it's working? or is it waiting for the device to be unmounted?
[07:47] <_2> !tab > DarkKnight
[07:48] <mib_n9780p88> hi, i am try to connect my two pcs, they are both connected to the same net connection, one is using ubuntu, the other is using windows vista
[07:48] <mib_n9780p88> is this possible?
[07:48] <_2> !samba > mib_n9780p88
[07:48] <onetinsoldier> qcjn: does the operation take place if you click Apply?
[07:49] <DarkKnight> _2; i checked out that tab thing.....ur name is so big
[07:49] <kubuntwo> stodan: if you have root access you can change every user password w\o knowing the old password.
[07:49] <DarkKnight> _2; ohh i checked the wrong thing..
[07:49] <_2> DarkKnight not for here,  for your command line
[07:49] <_2> yeah
[07:49] <DarkKnight> _2; okk
[07:49] <stodan> kubuntwo, you missread, i did that...
[07:50] <qcjn> onetinsoldier: yes but i've got an error, it stopped at 1/3
[07:50] <kubuntwo> stodan: sorry. youre right
[07:50] <mib_n9780p88> i am trying to connect my two pcs to share files between them, one is using ubuntu, the other is using Vista, can someone help me please?
[07:50] <onetinsoldier> qcjn: oh... darn. so what's the error?
[07:50] <_2> mib_n9780p88 why don't you read what ubottu said
[07:51] <DarkKnight> _2; http://paste.ubuntu.com/90611/
[07:51] <stodan> ok i found that, what i was looking was in seahorse in preferences
[07:52] <_2> DarkKnight ok you need to install a package for that    unfortunately i don't know which one.    open your package manager and search for ntfs
[07:52] <_2> unless someone in here knows by heart
[07:52] <DarkKnight> _2;kk
[07:53] <qcjn> onetinsoldier: the error is in redimenssinning
[07:53] <mib_n9780p88> _2 he didnt help
[07:53] <mib_n9780p88> _2  do you know?
[07:53] <Jangari> I've switched to using alpine for email and I'm configuring it as my 'preferred' email application with the command '/usr/bin/alpine "%s"', except if I click on a mailto: link on a webpage, it'll open up an alpine message window with "mailto:[emailaddres]" as the to: field. Is there a way to strip it out?
[07:53] <onetinsoldier> qcjn: i don't know what to think
[07:54] <_2> mib_n9780p88 yeah.  samba
[07:54] <Kernel> !puregnome
[07:54] <qcjn> onetinsoldier: but it,s not closed, it says to wait but it doesn't move,..stay's at 1/3
[07:55] <onetinsoldier> qcjn: i don't know what to think
[07:55] <mib_n9780p88> samba?
[07:55] <_2> !samba > mib_n9780p88
[07:55] <holycow> oh, usb-creater for taking an iso and making a usb booteable stick.  nice.
[07:56] <holycow> !purekde
[07:56] <qcjn> onetinsoldier: here's the report http://qcjn.pastebin.ca/1291323
[07:56] <onetinsoldier> the purgegnome in ubottu seems a little backwards there
[07:56] <arunvkumar> anybdy know any video and audio chat soft other than kopete?
[07:57] <_2> onetinsoldier why ?
[07:57] <arunvkumar> ´╗┐anybdy know any video and audio chat soft other than kopete?
[07:57] <holycow> ubotu is shared by #kubuntu and #ubuntu
[07:57] <_2> onetinsoldier you can remove things that are running without it killing them    depending on the shell scripts in the package of course
[07:58] <_2> onetinsoldier or was that not a typo "purgegnome" ?
[07:58] <arunvkumar> ´╗┐anybdy know any video and audio chat soft other than kopete?
[07:59] <arunvkumar> ´╗┐anybdy know any video and audio chat soft other than kopete?
[07:59] <_2> !repete
[07:59] <onetinsoldier> _2: perhaps i'm not seeing something right there? it seems to me that it tells you how to purge kde... not gnome
[07:59] <mib_n9780p88> _2  there is samba, gsambad and kinfocenter, just the regular samba you recommend?
[07:59] <Jangari> !alpine
[08:00] <Jangari> gah
[08:00] <Jangari> !pine
[08:00] <onetinsoldier> !purgegnome
[08:00] <_2> onetinsoldier correct, you are not seeing it right, and thus didn't spell it correctly.  "puregnome"
[08:00] <LurkersA> !chocolate
[08:00] <LurkersA> Drat
[08:00] <LurkersA> :(
[08:00] <_2> onetinsoldier as in "purekde"
[08:00] <onetinsoldier> !puregnome
[08:00] <Flannel> Jangari: pine is non-free, we use mutt instead.  You'll want to look into registering it with the alternatives system.  Your original question didnt make sense, what's your problem?
[08:00] <onetinsoldier> ok.. thats how you 'purge gnome'?
[08:01] <Jangari> i use alpine, but i find that people still refer to it as pine
[08:01] <_2> pure != purge     purekde will purge gnome
[08:01] <_2> onetinsoldier   ^
[08:01] <qcjn> onetinsoldier: here,s what it says in the terminal , since i've opened gparted from the terminal http://qcjn.pastebin.ca/1291326
[08:01] <Jangari> my problem is that the to: field gets filled with the address including the 'mailto:' protocol... actually, i haven't tested whether that's even a problem. hold on a sec
[08:02] <onetinsoldier> _2: ok... it just struckme as strange that purgegnome tells you how to remove KDE right off the bat
[08:02] <_2> onetinsoldier incorrevt
[08:02] <_2> onetinsoldier incorrect
[08:02] <trifecta> what
[08:02] <trifecta> hello
[08:02] <arunvkumar> ´╗┐anybdy know any video and audio chat soft other than kopete?
[08:02] <_2> onetinsoldier the word is not "purge" it is "pure"  puregnome
[08:02] <Flannel> !repeat | arunvkumar
[08:02] <LurkersA> arunvkumar: amsn
[08:03] <LurkersA> Flannel: To be fair, he did wait ~5mins
[08:03] <arunvkumar> LurkersA:  not for msn its yahoo
[08:04] <akahige1> ever since updating my hardy system to intrepid, my video performance has been completely borked.  is there a way to revert to the hardy version of xorg?  would that even work?
[08:04] <Jangari> hmm, the mailto: doesn't block the message, but it screws the header slightly
[08:04] <_2> onetinsoldier thus it follows that if one want's a "puregnome" system they would have to purge kde and any other desktop besides gnome
[08:04] <LurkersA> arunvkumar: Ah, wasn't specified
[08:04] <Flannel> Jangari: that sounds like a misconfiguration in the browser itself, actually.
[08:04] <holycow> akahige1: well you can compile from scratch and install but its a good bit of work
[08:04] <onetinsoldier> qcjn: it's a little hard for me to read some of that since it's not in my native tongue, but perhaps there's something wrong with your usb stick?
[08:04] <holycow> akahige1: it would be easier to just reinstall
[08:04] <holycow> what video card are you using?
[08:05] <onetinsoldier> _2: ok, i'm looking.. hang on
[08:05] <arunvkumar> LurkersA: sory
[08:05] <arunvkumar> is thr any soft
[08:05] <arunvkumar> ??
[08:05] <LurkersA> arunvkumar: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_instant_messaging_clients Take a look there for one that suits your needs
[08:05] <qcjn> onetinsoldier: coult it be that there is something with read and write right's ?
[08:05] <onetinsoldier> _2: ok.. i see. sure enough, i read it wrong!
[08:05] <_2> onetinsoldier also if one wants a "purekde" system they would have to purge gnome from their system
[08:06] <_2> onetinsoldier :)
[08:06] <arunvkumar> LurkersA:  ok thnk u
[08:06]  * onetinsoldier puts on his glasses Ó░áÓ░ÜÓ░á
[08:06] <Jangari> !purekde
[08:06] <Jangari> pfft
[08:06] <Jangari> i can't believe no one tried that
[08:06] <onetinsoldier> qcjn: could be...
[08:06] <_2> Jangari they did
[08:06] <Jangari> oh, okay
[08:07] <akahige1> holycow: reinstall hardy?
[08:07] <onetinsoldier> _2: qcjn is trying to repartition his usb stick. would you care to take a quick look?
[08:07] <chalcedony> _2 do you like vim better or do you have other things you like better?
[08:07] <_2> pastebin ?
[08:08] <_2> chalcedony i generally use mc for editing
[08:08] <_2> chalcedony i'm not a vim fan   nor do i care for emacs
[08:08] <chalcedony> _2: what's that?
[08:08] <_2> !info mc
[08:09] <qcjn> _2:http://qcjn.pastebin.ca/1291326
[08:09] <chalcedony> i knew about the file manager, i'm a command line fain
[08:09] <chalcedony> fan
[08:09] <_2> chalcedony example:  mc -e ~/.bash_history
[08:09] <bullgard4> Nautilus shows for every listed file a 'Type'. What file lists all possible 'Types' that Nautilus can show?
[08:09] <onetinsoldier> _2: qcjn gets an error that has me wondering if the usb stick has gone bad. here is the pastebin. http://qcjn.pastebin.ca/1291326
[08:09] <_2> onetinsoldier & qcjn looking.
[08:09] <qcjn> http://qcjn.pastebin.ca/1291323
[08:10] <ikonia> bullgard4: check the gnome docs

[08:11] <_2> qcjn can you run the command again but prepend lc_all please.      LC_ALL=C <command here>
[08:11] <ikonia> bullgard4: it's basiclly just the type of file it is, eg: normally based of the extension of the file
[08:11] <moza> hello, i'm looking for a chan about computer screws, does anybody have an idea where i could find something like that?
[08:11] <ikonia> moza: not here thanks
[08:11] <onetinsoldier> _2: sorry.. have a look at this one... http://qcjn.pastebin.ca/1291323
[08:11] <chalcedony> moza: maybe #hardware
[08:11] <_2> onetinsoldier yeah i'm trying to get him to translate it for us
[08:11] <bullgard4> ikonia: What do you mean by "the" gnome docs? I do not know a collection that is comprehensive.
[08:11] <ikonia> bullgard4: docs.gnome.org
[08:11] <onetinsoldier> _2: roger that
[08:12] <moza> ikonia, chalcedony  : thank you, have a good day :)
[08:12] <qcjn> tranlation coming

[08:13] <DefamedPrawn> hey I just tried to put my ubuntu 8.10 PC on suspend, and now it won't come out again. Is there some combination of keys I'm supposed to use, or should I force restart?
[08:13] <chalcedony> if i opened a .rar and had the terminal crash.. how can i find out what files were in it ? it's in my home directory with literally EVERYTHING else.
[08:13] <bullgard4> ikonia: Thank you.

[08:16] <_2> onetinsoldier anytime you need output from commands translated you can have them prepend    LC_ALL=C command here   or export LC_ALL=C  in one root terminal for work on things like that.   then all the output will be in C "ascii" output.

[08:18] <Draceee> Yes
[08:18] <Draceee> I just booted it up and thats the first thing i did
[08:18] <Flannel> Draceee: It may be that update-manager is doing it's thing (checking for updates).  Try waiting a few minutes then try again
[08:18] <Draceee> hmm
[08:19] <Draceee> If i open up synpatic it says "dpkg was interupted, you must manually run 'dpkg - -configure -a"
[08:19] <Draceee> if going to try that

[08:19] <_2> qcjn did you type that in ?     or is that a paste ?     cause    /dev/scd1 would be an scsi cdrom or dvd

[08:21] <ikonia> bakarat_: what's the problem with that
[08:21] <terryx>
[08:21] <terryx>
[08:21] <FloodBot2> terryx: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:21] <Flannel> Draceee: Alright, try doing this: sudo apt-get update, then try again
[08:21] <ikonia> terryx: ask a question then wait for a response
[08:21] <onetinsoldier> Draceee: that's a very bad error to get.
[08:21] <clou> hi
[08:21] <bakarat_> ikonia, well i'd like to have some more advanced options like highlighting without having to resort to complicated perl stuff ;)
[08:21] <ikonia> terryx: constantly asking or making noise won't get you very far
[08:21] <Draceee> Alright
[08:22] <ikonia> bakarat_: I see what your asking, and I'm thinking
[08:22] <clou> do you think ubuntu will run faster installed in virtualbox on windows xp host
[08:22] <Draceee> It gives me the dpkg was interrupted error
[08:22] <clou> or as a live cd ?
[08:22] <onetinsoldier> Flannel: dpkg on his system is hosed right now.
[08:22] <ikonia> clou: lunakrist depends on what your doing,
[08:22] <ikonia> clou: try them both, see what fits for you
[08:22] <terryx> ok ikonia, but i have installed ubuntu 2-4 time on my computer, but don;t know why its still logging out...
[08:22] <clou> i want to have to have a first look at ubuntu and test applications
[08:22] <ikonia> clou: then a livecd is a better experience
[08:23] <Flannel> onetinsoldier: It's not the end of the world actually.
[08:23] <chilli0> hello all, what is the main diffrence between a 9 cell Li-Ion Battery and a 6  cell Li-Ion Battery

[08:23] <Flannel> chilli0: Try #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:23]  * Felix123 has quit (Ping timeout)
[08:23] <chilli0> ok then
[08:23] <Flannel> Draceee: No, you don't need to get into recovery mode, regular mode is just fine.
[08:23] <onetinsoldier> Flannel: no.. but he won't be able to do anything at all with apt or dpkg until that's fixed
[08:23] <qcjn> ok, i've chose /dev/sdc (1.88 Go)

[08:24] <terryx> I have installed ubuntu 2-4 times on my computer but don't know still logging out, i have also removed my agp graphic card 256 mb nvida but still no use...plz help me..
[08:24] <clou> ikonia: the livecd should run faster?
[08:24] <Draceee> its a bunch of one liners
[08:25] <Draceee> How do I pastebin...
[08:25] <ikonia> clou: no the livecd should be a better experience to use/try ubuntu

[08:29] <AnythingJe> ikonia: So removing it won't do anything?
[08:29] <Flannel> Draceee: if you're worried about removing those, you can do this first: cp /var/lib/dpkg/updates/* ~/dpkg/temp
[08:29] <ikonia> AnythingJe: not really
[08:29] <_2> onetinsoldier see above your post ^
[08:29] <qcjn> onetinsoldier: thanks to you to

[08:30] <onetinsoldier> _2: roger that

[08:31] <Plecebo> I cant find tutorials anyplace
[08:31] <AnythingJe> I have to kill it every time I boot because it makes funky noises with the newest version of wine and all sound works great when I just kill it

[08:31] <Draceee> Im not able to right click, but it seems highlighting is enough
[08:31] <Draceee> cp /var/lib/dpkg/updates/* ~/dpkg/temp, now?
[08:31] <Draceee> It says it is not a directionairy
[08:31] <Flannel> Draceee: cp /var/lib/dpkg/updates/* ~/dpkg/temp && sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/updates/* && sudo apt-get update

[08:32] <Draceee> cp /var/lib/dpkg/updates/* ~/dpkg/temp
[08:32] <Flannel> Draceee: sorry, mkdir ~/dpkg/temp
[08:32] <Flannel> Draceee: then that

[08:33] <Draceee> http://paste.ubuntu.com/90637/
[08:34] <terryx> still no answers
[08:34] <Flannel> Draceee: right.  mkdir -p ~/dpkg/temp, like _2 mentioned
[08:34] <terryx> please help me someone
[08:34] <Draceee> Ok done without error
[08:34] <Flannel> Draceee: Just the mkdir and the copy?
[08:34] <Draceee>  mkdir -p ~/dpkg/temp returns nothing
[08:34] <ikonia> terryx: I old you, ask a question and wait for a response, constantly making noise about it won't get you far
[08:35] <_2> Draceee it shouldn't return anything,     no error means no error
[08:35] <Draceee> Right
[08:35] <terryx> ok plz hurry
[08:35] <dangit> does anyone know a good visual tail tool that allows for stuff like highlighting?
[08:35] <Flannel> Draceee: In Linux, nothing is a good thing.  Alright, now do cp /var/lib/dpkg/updates/* ~/dpkg/temp
[08:35] <terryx> before my pc logout itself without error
[08:35] <onetinsoldier> no news is good news eh? hehe
[08:36] <Draceee> Done
[08:36] <ValentineX> my ubuntu runs movies slow

[08:36] <_2> onetinsoldier on most cli apps   yes.

[08:36] <Lou_> What is causing this?: Found fglrx primary device section

[08:36] <Flannel> Draceee: Did you get any errors?
[08:36] <ikonia> dangit: I have seen a tool for java (I'm looking for it now) I don't think it's just java, I've only seen it setup for a java debugger though
[08:36] <Draceee> Nope

[08:37] <ValentineX> How to fix this movie playback problem http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=493901&page=2
[08:37] <Draceee> Sweet, it worked
[08:37] <Draceee> Thank you very much good sir
[08:37] <Flannel> Draceee: That sometimes happens if you lose power/interrupt/etc stuff while its doing package management stuffs.  Also, now do this: rm -r ~/dpkg
[08:37] <soreau> Lou_: Which video card model do you have?
[08:37] <ikonia> ValentineX: slow movie playback is normally down to a.) a bad video codec support b.) your video card not setup correctly c.) your machine not powerful enough to play it back
[08:38] <Draceee> Yea i believe thats what happened
[08:38] <ValentineX> ikonia: but at windows it was all fine :(
[08:38] <Draceee> Well thanks
[08:38] <Draceee> Im off now
[08:38] <ikonia> ValentineX: how does that effect anything ?
[08:38] <ikonia> ValentineX: windows does not have the same codec support, your video card support is different, so only c.) is removed
[08:39] <Lou_> soreau, radeon 1950, I think.
[08:39] <ValentineX> ikonia: how to setup my card?
[08:39] <soreau> Lou_: lspci|grep VGA

[08:40] <ValentineX> ikonia: intel 82865G integrated Graphics controllet

[08:41] <_2> ** (epiphany:4884): WARNING **: Unable to connect to session bus: Unable to determine the address of the message bus
[08:42] <ikonia> _2: if no-one knows the answer, they won't respond
[08:42] <ikonia> ValentineX: Hmmm I wonder if your card is using hardware accelration
[08:43] <Lou_> soreau, I completely removed fglrx files and reinstalled them, using synoptic.
[08:43] <ValentineX> ikonia: what
[08:43] <onetinsoldier> _2: have you checked launchpad for bug reports on epiphany?
[08:44] <_2> ikonia normally i agree.   but i have addressed it in several ways,  not the least of is  "can anyone help me find out what message bus this error is talking about, could it be dbus by any chance"   which normally would have gotten some sort of a response
[08:44] <ikonia> ValentineX: if you do a glxgears -info in aterminal look at the text it displays, do you see GL_RENDERER   = Mesa DRI Intel(R) in the text (scroll up)
[08:44] <soreau> Lou_: The ati open drivers have preliminary support for your card. If you would like to try them, remove all fglrx packages, run /usr/share/ati/fglrx-uninstall.sh if it exists, then install xserver-xorg-video-ati and change "fglrx" to "ati" in xorg.conf
[08:44] <_2> onetinsoldier no  but im using dapper, surely the bugs would have been addressed by now.
[08:44] <onetinsoldier> _2: oh, i see, and i agree.
[08:45] <ikonia> _2: new bugs are found every day
[08:45] <pusycat81> salut
[08:45] <_2> but the package hasn't been updated/patched in months
[08:45] <Lou_> soreau, will that driver support 2 monitors at 1440x900 resolution?
[08:45] <ikonia> _2: so ?
[08:45] <ikonia> _2: new bugs are found every day
[08:45] <_2> true
[08:45] <ValentineX> ikonia: GL_RENDERER   = Software Rasterizer
[08:46] <ikonia> ah ha !
[08:46] <ikonia> ValentineX: it's using software aceleration, which is why it's slow
[08:46] <ValentineX> :-S
[08:46] <ValentineX> ikonia: so?
[08:46] <ikonia> ValentineX: if you edit the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf and scroll down to a place where you see         Identifier      "Configured Video Device"
[08:47] <ikonia> ValentineX: do you have anything under that line ?
[08:47] <Draceee> I installed a package...where can I find it now?
[08:47] <soreau> Lou_: What is the output of 'glxinfo -l|grep MAX_TEXTURE_SIZE'?
[08:47] <ikonia> Draceee: what package
[08:47] <Draceee> Skype
[08:47] <ValentineX> ikonia: how to edit that file xorg.conf
[08:47] <ikonia> dangit: it will be on your applications menu
[08:47] <onetinsoldier> Draceee: dpkg -L <package_name> | less
[08:47] <ikonia> ValentineX: open it with a text editor
[08:47] <DefamedPrawn> hey I just tried to put my ubuntu 8.10 PC on suspend, and now it won't come out again. Is there some combination of keys I'm supposed to use, or should I force restart?
[08:47] <_2> ikonia at any rate, it's more likely something NOT RUNNING on my system than a bug.    but i do start dbus-daemon -system  when i start a gui so it shouldnt be dbus    "key word may be shouldnt"
[08:47] <ikonia> dangit: under internet
[08:47] <Draceee> I installed the skype for windows version first
[08:47] <Draceee> so how can i get rid of that?
[08:48] <dangit> ikonia, what's it called?
[08:48] <ikonia> dangit: what's what called ?
[08:48] <ikonia> dangit: of the editor
[08:48] <ikonia> dangit: can't find it, still looking
[08:48] <Draceee> nvm im goo
[08:48] <ikonia> dangit: it was a commercial app
[08:48] <Draceee> dd

[08:48] <FloodBot2> Lou_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:48] <ValentineX> ikonia: command?
[08:48] <soreau> uh oh
[08:48] <soreau> Lou_: Well then, you can probably get more detailed information in #radeon for your card with the open driver
[08:48] <onetinsoldier> Draceee: you want to get rid of the package you just installed? is that correct?
[08:48] <ikonia> ValentineX: use whatever text editor you like to use
[08:48] <ValentineX> FloodBot2: hi
[08:48] <ValentineX> ikonia: i dont know any
[08:48] <dangit> ikonia, ah k
[08:49] <wer3> e
[08:49] <ValentineX> ikonia: dont know linux
[08:49] <ikonia> ValentineX: use the command sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:50] <ikonia> ValentineX: I strongly suggest you read the basic introduction documents on https://help.ubuntu,.com as it's very hard to help when you've not taken the time to even be aware of the basics
[08:50] <Lou_> soreau, ok. Many thanks! I'll try in #radeon.
[08:50] <Kartagis> !info dos2unix
[08:51] <hischild> !find dox
[08:51] <hischild> !find dos2
[08:51] <terryx> i am still waiting........
[08:51] <soreau> Lou_: It might take some time to get a response there, so be prepared to be patient
[08:51] <ikonia> terryx: what part is not clear ?
[08:51] <Kartagis> what package is dos2unix a pary of?
[08:51] <Kartagis> part*
[08:51] <Slart> Kartagis: sudo apt-get install sysutils
[08:51] <ikonia> terryx: if you say "I'm still waiting" people who are new to the channel don't konw what your question is
[08:52] <ValentineX> ikonia: Identifier      "Configured Video Device"
[08:52] <Kartagis> Slart, thank you
[08:52] <Slart> !info sysutils
[08:52] <hischild> Kartagis, tofrodos ( slart )
[08:52] <Slart> oops
[08:52] <ikonia> terryx: ask your question, wait for a response, if you don't get a response repeate  the question after say 15 minutes so new people can see the question
[08:52] <ikonia> ValentineX: under that line add the folloing
[08:52] <Slart> !info tofrodos
[08:52] <ValentineX> ikonia: in nano text editor how to scrol page up and down?
[08:52] <hischild> Slart, type dos2unix in a console, nothing else . Then you'll see what it's part of.
[08:52] <ikonia> ValentineX: Driver       "intel"
[08:52] <Slart> yay
[08:52] <Kartagis> tofrodos?
[08:52] <terryx> ok i will do that now
[08:52] <gmathews> Hello all - I installed Intrepid yesterday - but sometimes during the progress bar of shutdown it goes to a blank screen with a single dash on the top - any ideas?
[08:52] <Kartagis> is that a package?
[08:52] <hischild> Kartagis, yup
[08:53] <Slart> hischild: I always forget that neat little feature =)
[08:53] <_2> Kartagis or just use tr :)
[08:53] <Kartagis> !info tofrodos
[08:53] <ValentineX> ikonia: there is written driver "vesa"
[08:53] <terryx> my problem is my ubuntu keeps logging out automatically....
[08:53] <hischild> Slart, command-not-found :-)
[08:53] <ikonia> ValentineX: change that to "intel"
[08:53] <_2> terryx sounds like a security setting
[08:54] <_2> terryx does it log out or does it crash ?
[08:54] <lenin> hello all.......... I upgraded from Hardy latest version to  Ibex . and after an week .. the  integrated "shutdown+IM status indicator" button disappeared how to enable that?
[08:54] <ValentineX> ikonia: changed how to save this nano editor?
[08:54] <terryx> security setting, i have clean installed ubuntu 2-3 times and its just loggout...itsself
[08:54] <terryx> not crash
[08:54] <ikonia> ValentineX: no idea, it normally says at the bttom is it ctrl+x ?
[08:54] <Slart> terryx: I'm guessing your X server crashes and restarts.. looks the same as a logout
[08:55] <bioman> Hi !
[08:55] <terryx> before i think problem with my agp card
[08:55] <_2> terryx how can you tell the differance whether it logs out or crashes ?
[08:55] <hischild> Which program can auto organize my music according to it's music tags? \
[08:55] <ikonia> terryx: 3 things can cause that normally. 1.) not enough disk space 2.) not got write permissions to your home dir 3.) your video card not being configured correctly
[08:55] <murkem> anybody know how to get realplayer installed on ubuntu?
[08:55] <Lou_> soreau, thanks. I'll be patient. I appreciate your help very much.
[08:55] <ValentineX> ikonia: ctrl+x is for exit
[08:55] <ikonia> ValentineX: then what does it say for write
[08:55] <Slart> hischild: you mean like a smart playlist?
[08:55] <terryx> i have ejected my agp card, now i am using onboard intel
[08:55] <Slart> hischild: or physically move the file around?
[08:56] <ValentineX> ikonia: i did exit it asked me to save, i saved :) now next?
[08:56] <terryx> i have free space 1.7gb
[08:56] <ikonia> ValentineX: restart and you should be good
[08:56] <_2> terryx you can tell the differance in a log out and a crash by reviewing the logs in /var/log/   the Xorg.* logs in particular
[08:56] <terryx> enough i think...
[08:56] <ValentineX> ikonia: wao no software etc installation like windows?
[08:57] <ikonia> ValentineX pardon ?
[08:57] <onetinsoldier> terryx: can you log in at the console terminal? after it logs you out try  Ctrl+Alt+F1. then check some log files. such as /var/log/messages and /var/log/auth, and as _2 says, /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[08:57] <terryx> no no its like when u logg of
[08:57] <hischild> Slart, not exactly. Say i have a music file from AILD with title Seperation from the album An Ocean Between us. I want the player to physically rename the file to /home/hischild/Music/AILD/An Ocean Between us/01 - Seperation.mp3 (it's the first song of that album)
[08:57] <lenin> hello all.......... I upgraded from Hardy latest version to  Ibex . and after an week .. the  integrated "shutdown+IM status indicator" button disappeared how to enable that?
[08:57] <terryx> i have opened xorg.0.log
[08:57] <terryx> now..???
[08:57] <_2> terryx "<terryx> no no its like when u logg of"   you mean it gives the option to shutdown restart or logout ?
[08:58] <ValentineX> ikonia: i remember windows there to fix problem or to install drivers u need to pass through installations always, in linux just word editing can fix the problem?
[08:58] <zerodevice> i have most of the stuff setup for bluetooth pairing where i can send files to ubuntu. but it doesnt worked.
[08:58] <onetinsoldier> terryx: press /   then search for   EE
[08:58] <Slart> hischild: ah.. aren't there some tools for that? hang on
[08:58] <bioman> Before I install Linux on my laptop I've tried ubuntu 8.10 LiveCD
[08:58] <zerodevice> ubuntu keeps on say the host is down, something like it did not discovered any signals from my phone
[08:58] <onetinsoldier> terryx: or i shold just say...  search for   EE
[08:58] <Slart> !info entag | hischild
[08:58] <cellofellow> lenin: right click panel, and add user switcher
[08:58] <Slart> !info easytag | hischild
[08:58] <rohdef> is there a way to make Ubuntu support the stssync protocol (I think it's a sharepoint thing, but I'm not sure)?
[08:58] <Slart> !info entagged | hischild
[08:58] <terryx> (WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.
[08:59] <terryx> its written like this
[08:59] <hischild> Slart, i know there are, but i can't seem to find it. Anyway, /msg ubottu for the fishing :-)
[08:59] <bioman> bioman: I wanted to get monitor's frequencies in xorg.conf but there's nothing in this file
[08:59] <NET||abuse> arrg,, trying to clear a keyboard shortcut i set, it says hit space bar to clear the shortcut but it's not working, it trys to set space bar as the shortcut and then says the system would be unuseable.#
[08:59] <onetinsoldier> terryx: ok... keep on searching further down in the file  for EE... keep on searching for that
[08:59] <Slart> hischild: 2 hits with three tries.. I'm sniping, not fishing =)
[08:59] <_2> terryx yeah that's the information line explaining what ee means in that log.
[08:59] <lenin> "User Switcher" has quit unexpectedly @ cellofellow: this is the error I get :(
[09:00] <_2> terryx keep searching
[09:00] <terryx> so what does its mean
[09:00] <hischild> Slart, ok ok, so it's not fishing, but you get my point.
[09:00] <ikonia> ValentineX windows and linux are nothing a like, best to not compare them
[09:00] <Slart> hischild: indeed
[09:00] <_2> (EE) error,
[09:00] <onetinsoldier> terryx: a hit on a line tha contains EE is a line that contains an error
[09:00] <terryx> no more
[09:00] <KST_> hi
[09:01] <terryx> i did match case to find EE
[09:01] <terryx> capital
[09:01] <terryx> thats fine?
[09:01] <onetinsoldier> terryx: hhmmm, perhaps take a look at /var/log/auth
[09:01] <cellofellow> lenin: weird
[09:01] <NET||abuse> So how can i clear my keyboard shortcuts
[09:02] <cellofellow> lenin: try again I guess
[09:02] <Plecebo> if I am running my ubuntu box as a gateway and i ping my hostname for my gateway from an "internal" client should I see the internal gateway IP or the external gateway IP?
[09:02] <terryx> ok opened then??
[09:02] <onetinsoldier> terryx: yes.. you were supposed to search on capital E's
[09:02] <lenin>  cellofellow: I have tried it many times.. it happened after an update
[09:02] <terryx> suth.log opened
[09:02] <onetinsoldier> terryx: i don't know.. anything unusual in there?
[09:02] <terryx> i mean auth.log
[09:03] <terryx> what u mean
[09:03] <roy_hobbs> Anyone know of a trick to reset a computer back to a fresh Ubuntu install state?
[09:03] <bioman> how can I get HorizSync and VertRefresh in xorg.conf ?
[09:03] <KST_> hi
[09:03] <REER> HI
[09:03] <REER> ├ç├ú├ç├ú├ç├ú
[09:04] <_2> terryx should have open session for ...   and close session for ...     if you have many open but few close  then you may have crash rather than logout
[09:04] <onetinsoldier> terryx: i don't know exactly what you;d be looking for in there. just thought you might see your user being continually denied access or something to that effect
[09:05] <Serraphyn> Is it possible to share desktop and displays between 2 computers? like for duel monitor having one mouse and keyboard(without KVM or virtual desktop?)
[09:05] <terryx> i don't know..i thing the problem with utorrent
[09:05] <nagchampa> when i hit eject on my cd drive, it says unable to mount media
[09:05] <nagchampa> of course it can't, i've not put any in yet
[09:06] <_2> Serraphyn yes  and there is an infonode
[09:06] <_2> !desktopsharing
[09:06] <_2> pfft i forgot the name
[09:06] <terryx> i wodnload & installed wine and then using utorrent its logout 2 times but while i am talking to u guys...i have closed my utorrent its does not happen
[09:06] <lolita> e
[09:06] <terryx> what u think about that?
[09:06] <bioman> please
[09:06] <lolita> he
[09:06] <lolita> poy
[09:06] <ikonia> terryx: I think you have wasted peoples time by not telling the facts
[09:07] <commander_> hi guys
[09:07] <ikonia> terryx: you said you logged in and it logged you out
[09:07] <terryx> what??
[09:07] <ikonia> terryx: now it turns out you've logging in, running torrent software and after a period of time it's logging you out
[09:07] <terryx> no
[09:07] <terryx> i was working on my computer(in ubuntu)
[09:08]  * _2 still thinks most likely something on terryx's system is crashing
[09:08] <terryx> and keeps utorrent on(on download) then its logout
[09:08] <ikonia> terryx: thats not what you said at the start
[09:08] <ikonia> terryx: you said it logs you in then back out
[09:08] <silv3r_m00n> hi there
[09:08] <KST_> What is better in beetwin windows and ubuntu?
[09:08] <terryx> yes
[09:08] <terryx> thats what i am saying right now
[09:08] <ikonia> terryx: thats different than logging in, working, using torrent software, using wine then it crashes and dumps you back out
[09:08] <onetinsoldier> terryx: but only when you run utorrent?
[09:08] <holycow> KST_: depends entirely on your definition of 'better'
[09:08] <_2> KST_ most everything
[09:08] <silv3r_m00n> i just logged in using xfce  .... is there any kind of configuration area for xfce ?
[09:08] <ikonia> terryx: so I think you have wasted peoples time
[09:09] <holycow> try and decide for your self
[09:09] <bioman> Who knows how to get monitor modelines ?
[09:09] <holycow> you no longer need to set modelines
[09:09] <ikonia> bioman: its documented in the xorg documents
[09:09] <ikonia> bioman: x.org
[09:09] <holycow> xorg has totally changed
[09:09] <terryx> no no i mean my ubuntu start i work, watch movie but not for more time its logout
[09:09] <terryx> whats that mean
[09:09] <tiyowan> Good afternoon, folks.
[09:09] <onetinsoldier> terryx: you have made it sound like.. you log in, and you are logged right back out, like almost immediately
[09:10] <terryx> no no
[09:10] <_2> holycow i think he's getting a "no screens found"  or something like
[09:10] <ikonia> terryx: I suggest next time you try to ask for help you explain the problem properly as I won't be wasting any more time on this
[09:10] <bioman> I need to know HorizSync and VertRefresh in xorg.conf
[09:10] <terryx> i have never said that
[09:10] <holycow> _2: good point
[09:10] <terryx> now see right now i am in ubuntu...if i open utorrent i been logout automaticaslly
[09:10] <bioman> running ubuntu livecd there's nothing in xorg.conf
[09:11] <terryx> may be its because of utorrent or something else
[09:11] <terryx> thats why i am asking u for helping me
[09:11] <tiyowan> terryx: Are you using Wine to run utorrent?
[09:11] <terryx> yes
[09:12] <ardchoille> maybe utorrent is craching xorg?
[09:12] <bioman> tiyowan: use deluge
[09:12] <jercos> Hey guys, I'm having a bit of an odd problem with an old clie... udev doesn't seem to be hooking the serial device up to a device node...
[09:12] <terryx> i have done that before 5-6 days no problem, then the problem occurs suddenly
[09:12] <jercos> gpilot and pilot-xfer will happily connect to it via listening on "usb:", but I'm going for a PPP link
[09:12] <tiyowan> bioman: Not me. -> terryx
[09:12] <bioman> tiyowan: Oops
[09:12] <jercos> udev spins off 7 or so device nodes not suitable for communication, /dev/usbdev* stuff...
[09:12] <terryx> is there any problem with wine
[09:12] <ardchoille> terryx: why are you using wine to run utorrent when there are many native Linux torrent clients?
[09:12] <tiyowan> terryx: Um, is there any particular reason why can't use a native torrent client for linux?
[09:13] <jercos> ideas?
[09:13] <lenin> can anybody tell me how do I turn back on the  'automatic update notification icon' ??  it got disabled after an update failed due to bad internet connection... no broken packages is reported there after
[09:13] <terryx> no reason i am just new to ubuntu or linux
[09:13] <terryx> i don;t know anything much
[09:13] <terryx> right now i am using transmission
[09:13] <terryx> u suggest something else
[09:13] <_2> terryx maybe it's a conspiracy, maybe they are hacking into your box via utorrent      <.<     >.>     o.O
[09:13] <terryx> tell me good one
[09:14] <terryx> ohhhhkkkk
[09:14] <terryx> is it possible?
[09:14] <onetinsoldier> anyting is possible
[09:14] <tiyowan> terryx: There's lots of them. bittornado, deluge, ktorrent, rtorrent, etc.
[09:14] <terryx> so first i remove wine from my system?
[09:14] <theatrus> terryx, don't need to
[09:14] <terryx> which is good n with features?
[09:15] <terryx> ok
[09:15] <theatrus> terryx, I like both transmission and ktorrent
[09:15] <terryx> ktorrent is good
[09:15] <hischild> i also like deluge.
[09:15] <soreau> ! u
[09:15] <tiyowan> terryx: Personally, transmission does the job for me.
[09:15] <terryx> i have running this but not good speed
[09:16] <terryx> its always goes idle itself
[09:16] <_2> soreau u hit the nail on the head when u said that, u did
[09:16] <enigma> hi, I have problem. I have DELL desktop PC, and I just install ubuntu 8.10 without connecting to internet
[09:16] <enigma> now <I\m connected
[09:17] <enigma> and my question is
[09:17] <_2> !repos > enigma
[09:17] <enigma> how to install graphics drivers?
[09:17] <soreau> _2: Tell ubottu, I didn't say much of anything ;)
[09:17] <terryx> so i can reinsert my agp card or not?
[09:17] <rozinblue> ..
[09:18] <tiyowan> enigma: System -> Admin. -> H/W Drivers.
[09:19] <Paingel> !repos
[09:19] <jercos> :( so you guys are more for windows->ubuntu migration support than for serious technical questions?
[09:19] <enigma> tiyowan: but this list is empty
[09:19] <hischild> !ati | enigma
[09:19] <_2> ok maybe epiphany needs gconf server to be running  ???
[09:19] <sdousley|work> Hi All, fairly new to Ubuntu, just setting up a server, which only has SSH access, how can I setup the firewall to allow UDP connections for SNMP (port 161)
[09:19] <theatrus> jercos, not really no
[09:20] <tiyowan> jercos: We're all volunteers. Everyone contributes what they know to solve the problem.
[09:20] <_2> so how does one start gconf server ?
[09:20] <jercos> theatrus: oh. okay. so if I get no responses, basically I should look elsewhere?
[09:20] <terryx> tell me
[09:20] <theatrus> jercos, however, I don't have any particular tidbits to help you there - is the device supposed to map a serial emulation port?
[09:21] <hischild> jercos, you can just ask again a bit later. I've had questions that the hardest of IT techs didn't know at first, took 12 hours to find it out eventually with a dozen people.
[09:21] <bioman> if I install from a livecd will I have a "real" xorg.conf ?
[09:21] <tiyowan> jercos: What's the problem, by the way? I missed it.
[09:22] <hischild> bioman, define real. It'll work, yes.
[09:22] <terryx> tell me can i re-insert my agp card?
[09:22] <jercos> theatrus: the USB hotsync protocol revolves around essentially using a virtual USB->serial converted
[09:22] <jercos> converter*
[09:22] <_2> bioman that is not installation methood specific   it is version specific        short answer probably not
[09:22] <gavi> i have a question related to gpilot.. is #ubuntu a goodplace to ask?
[09:22] <bioman> hischild: I mean a normal xorg.conf, not the one you have when you use the livecd
[09:22] <terryx> ikonia: tell me can i re-insert my agp card?
[09:23] <theatrus> jercos, true, true
[09:23] <jercos> my problem is that I want to connect my clie over a USB line to my Ubuntu PC via a PPP link. I think I can handle PPP itself, but when I try to connect/hotsync from the palm no new device nodes that are of any use to me are created
[09:23] <lenin> how do I listen to songs in esnips?
[09:23] <_2> bioman that is not installation methood specific   it is version specific        short answer probably not
[09:23] <enigma> tiyowan: I have Intel integraded VGA
[09:23] <lenin> in IBEX ?
[09:23] <enigma> 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82865G Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)
[09:23] <theatrus> I wonder how gpilot handles it then... it might be using libusb
[09:23] <enigma> and I don't know where I could find drivers
[09:23] <theatrus> so that might mean there is no internal kernel driver
[09:24] <theatrus> well, he didn't wait around for answers :)
[09:24] <tiyowan> jercos: Yikes. I've got no experience with that.
[09:24] <jercos> tiyowan: me neither, that's why I'm here :P
[09:24] <_2> bioman the latest version of xorg doesn't really use xorg.conf by default       it can use one if you want to write it,  but defaults to a 'one size fits none' approach
[09:25] <jin> whenever I am writing files to disk constantly, firefox becomes very slow :(
[09:25] <sexcopter> hi, can anyone tell me how to determine the graphics driver currently in use, on ubuntu 8.10
[09:25] <enigma> theatrus< so what in this case?
[09:26] <ziroday> sexcopter: you can see in your xorg log
[09:26] <_2> sexcopter  grep driver /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[09:27] <sexcopter> ziroday, _2: thanks

[09:27] <gavi> folks, i can sync in ubuntu with my treo 650, but im having trouble installing a language... has anyone done this? or have a bit of expirence with this in order to assist me?
[09:27] <theatrus> enigma, for that chip, you're all drivered up
[09:27] <parashute> can someone help me with ndiswrapper
[09:28] <gavi> Parashute i can try
[09:28] <jercos> parashute: I suspect so... Ask away, and we'll try to answer your questions...
[09:28] <gavi> did u install ndiswrapper, and or the gui
[09:28] <parashute> gavi: im trying to get ath0 interface to be created im using ndiswrapper
[09:29] <gavi> parashute, do u have the driver of your wifi card?
[09:29] <onetinsoldier> tiyowan: welcome back  :-)
[09:29] <parashute> gavi: ndiswrapper is the driver , no ?
[09:29] <soreau> Lou_: First, check that you have direct rendering working. Can you pastebin your /var/log/Xorg.0.log file?
[09:29] <gavi> parashute, no
[09:29] <KST_> ,
[09:29] <gavi> you need to download the windows driver for your wifi card
[09:29] <gavi> and the inf files are what is needed
[09:29] <ziroday> KST_: do you have a problem we can help you with?
[09:29] <parashute> gavi: obviously - i've loaded that
[09:29] <parashute> gavi: theres no kernel driver though
[09:30] <parashute> gavi: its AR5007EG/AR242x
[09:30] <gavi> just a sec
[09:30] <_2> anyone know a command to start gconf-server ?
[09:30] <tiyowan> onetinsoldier: Heh. Thx. I'm afftected by the Mediterranean underseas cable problem.
[09:30] <ziroday> _2: its um err, gnome-settings?
[09:30] <tiyowan> jercos: Not much help here, but have you checked out http://www.raoult.com/palm/?
[09:31] <onetinsoldier> tiyowan: oh. i wasn't aware of the problem. but now you got me thinking about googling it
[09:31] <_2> ziroday hmmm i'll give it a shot
[09:31] <enigma> theatrus, what you mean (all drivered up)
[09:31] <ziroday> _2: correction: try gnome-settings-daemon
[09:31] <enigma> my anglish is not very good
[09:31] <KST_> what is anglish?
[09:31] <jercos> tiyowan: indeed I have :) it was one of my first stops... unfortunately, this clie has no serial number, and I have no clue as to how I would emulate that procedure without a serial number for my device...
[09:31] <tiyowan> onetinsoldier: You're lucky. I'm getting the worse of it. No limewire/torrents, intermittent disconnects, etc.
[09:32] <theatrus> enigma, you don't have to install anything special to get intel integrated cards to work in Ubuntu last I checked
[09:32] <onetinsoldier> tiyowan: sorry to hear that :-(
[09:32] <ziroday> KST_: do you have a problem we can help you with?
[09:32] <KST_> no thanks
[09:32] <gavi> parashute, when u cllick on the black computers near the time, do u see wireless networks
[09:32] <tiyowan> jercos: So...if you could get the serial number for your device, that'd at least enable you to try that procedure?
[09:32] <enigma> theatrus but the higest resoultion is available is 640...
[09:32] <ziroday> KST_: you can chat in #ubuntu-offtopic :)
[09:32] <alex_21> Hi, I know this is weird, but does anyone know where to get wallpaper that is the texture of fruits?
[09:33] <enigma> 640*480
[09:33] <enigma> and it's quite non comfortable
[09:33] <jercos> tiyowan: you misunderstand. the device does not send an iSerial with the USB connect message. it does not *have* a serial number.
[09:33] <enigma> to work
[09:33] <dapper-daniel> hej! does aireplay work with ipw2200 and ubuntu kernel 2.6.27? or do I need any patches for the driver?
[09:33] <parashute> gavi: im using CLI
[09:33] <_2> ziroday ok, thanks, and it wasn't gconf-server       ;/
[09:33] <gavi> Paraselene_, sounds like ur ahead of me
[09:33] <gavi> i installed a wifi with ubuntu on a dlink card
[09:34] <ziroday> _2: so gnome-settings-daemon worked?
[09:34] <rebel_kid> alex_21, please read the topic for this channel. it may be better to ask in a social channel like #defocus or ##socialites
[09:34] <gavi> sorry
[09:34] <enigma> so, what I should do to ubuntu look again to drivers?
[09:34] <alex_21> Hi, I know this is weird, but does anyone know where to get wallpaper that is the texture of fruits? Like a wallpaper with a Kiwi texture?
[09:34] <alex_21> Please
[09:34] <onetinsoldier> alex_21: or perhaps even some channel like #gimp
[09:34] <jercos> tiyowan: as such, I cannot create a udev rule to *create* a device to use with pppd
[09:34] <_2> ziroday it ran,  but  epiphany still says ** (epiphany:4891): WARNING **: Unable to connect to session bus: Unable to determine the address of the message bus
[09:34] <tiyowan> jercos: Ah. My bad.
[09:34] <rastar> morning
[09:34] <soreau> alex_21: Search on gnome-look.org or kde-look.org
[09:34] <alex_21> I am using it for developement of Ubuntu applications
[09:35] <soreau> alex_21: Or just google it :)
[09:35] <ziroday> _2: that sounds like a dbus compared to gconf issue, You running LXDE, Openbox or something similar?
[09:35] <tiyowan> enigma: Go to System -> Admin. -> H/W Drivers. If it doesn't auto-install drives and everything is fine, then you don't need anymore drivers.
[09:35] <tiyowan> er, drivers.
[09:35] <ziroday> alex_21: you might even have some luck asking in #ubuntu-artwork
[09:35] <_2> i sussposes i could blank all my logs and then try it
[09:35] <_2> ziroday blackbox  yeah
[09:36] <_2> ziroday but dbus and hald are running
[09:36] <alex_21> Well, my problem is that I can't see it, so are the gnome-look pictures labeled nicely
[09:36] <alex_21> ?
[09:36] <enigma> tiyowan
[09:36] <enigma> list is empty
[09:36] <ziroday> _2: ah, I would check the permissions on .dbus or something similar in your homedir and make sure they are extremely permissable
[09:36] <enigma> list of drivers
[09:36] <tiyowan> enigma: That is normal behavior.
[09:36] <enigma> so how to set higher resolution
[09:36] <alex_21> Ok, thanks
[09:36] <alex_21> Thanks for your help
[09:37] <alex_21> Good night. Bani bash
[09:37]  * _2 own's his home ....
[09:37] <KST_> hi

[09:38] <tiyowan> enigma: What graphics card do you have?
[09:38] <enigma> 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82865G Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)
[09:38] <tiyowan> enigma: And you're v8.10 right?

[09:39] <theatrus> _Nike_, are you familiar with vim?
[09:39] <_Nike_> hum
[09:39] <_Nike_> ok
[09:39] <tiyowan> enigma: Hang on, I think read something about this in the 8.10 release notes.
[09:39] <_Nike_> no
[09:39] <_Nike_> vim a.a <
[09:39] <_Nike_> yes ?
[09:39] <FloodBot2> _Nike_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[09:39] <theatrus> _Nike_, I'd recommend using a graphical editor then, like gedit or kate
[09:39] <_Nike_> hum
[09:39] <KST_> hi
[09:39] <SMILE> hello
[09:40] <bigproof> sym
[09:40] <_Nike_> thearus gedit is insalled on ubuntu because I necessity his to install my net

[09:40] <SMILE> any asian here?
[09:40] <hotcat> #gcc

[09:44] <tood> i have a question
[09:44] <onetinsoldier> we need to know what the question is!
[09:44] <theatrus> ask it tood
[09:44] <tood> well i m just ubuntu begginer
[09:45] <onetinsoldier> ok
[09:45] <_2> but thats not a question
[09:45] <tood> and i dont know how i can regognize my partitions in ubuntu any answers
[09:45] <onetinsoldier> lol
[09:45] <_2> !partitions
[09:45] <theatrus> reorganize?
[09:45] <tiyowan> tood: Have you looked in Places? Do they up?
[09:45] <nagchampa> is there a way to use the eject button next to an optical drive to eject it if it's empty?
[09:45] <tood> well when i let ubuntu do every thing while i m setup it it made only one partation called filesystem nothing else
[09:46] <tiyowan> Oh dear.
[09:46] <Kartagis> _2, http://paste.ubuntu.com/90668/
[09:46] <_2> !mount
[09:46] <jim_p> can i set network manager to manage wireless connections ONLY? if so, please tell me how. its my last effort to become friends again with network manager
[09:46] <_2> Kartagis looking
[09:47] <tood> well i only have one partation and i hve to but all my data on it its filesystem nothing else
[09:47] <theatrus> tood, and what do you want to do with it?
[09:48] <KST_> hi
[09:48] <jmk> hi
[09:48] <jim_p> tood, that is the main partition in every linux os. other partitions and drives are just mounted in there
[09:48] <KST_> Welcome to #ubuntu
[09:48] <tood> i want to make 3 partations not only one partation
[09:48] <jmk> what are you doing here?
[09:48] <_2> Kartagis hmmm sorry i'm not familear with  "cifs"   maybe i shouldn't have jumped in...
[09:48] <KST_> I was waiting for you
[09:48] <theatrus> tood, for any particular reason?
[09:48] <_2> !cifs
[09:48] <jmk> oh really
[09:49] <underdog5004_> is there any way I can make a tar and export it to a remote box without saving it first onto the localhost?
[09:49] <_2> Kartagis porbably "from what i gather" the share is shared as readonly  ???
[09:49] <Kartagis> _2, I don't have a problem with cifs, I have problem with /media/KINGSTON which is vfat
[09:49] <tood> well no but do i have to work like this i mean is this how linux work with only  one partation when i had windows i had 3 partations
[09:49]  * _2 looks again.
[09:50] <scapor> Does someone here have an idea how to automate printing a lot of PDF files at once ? I have a directory with a lot of PDF files and they all have to be printed ...
[09:50] <theatrus> tood, since you'll need to resize your partitions, you're going to have to launch from the live CD and use the partitioning tool provided
[09:50] <jim_p> scapor, make a nautilus script
[09:50] <tiyowan> tood: When you install Ubuntu, you have an option to make separate partitions and mount your /home dir on one them. That is, essentially, I think what're you trying to do.
[09:50] <theatrus> tood, there isn't much reason to but you're welcome to if you'd like
[09:50] <_2> Kartagis and sudo rm /media/KINGSTON/somethingerother    fails ?
[09:50] <jim_p> scapor, i dont know how to print from command line though
[09:51] <scapor> jim_p: I wouldn't know what command to use to print a PDF as I'm used to use evince for that
[09:51] <tood> oh thx guys for ur help i get it now
[09:51] <Kartagis> _2, yes
[09:51] <_2> Kartagis   sudo touch /media/KINGSTON/boo
[09:51] <jim_p> scapor, you gave me an idea! wait there
[09:51] <scapor> jim_p: I'm now thinking of finding a tool to make of all pdf's 1 document .. seems like tsomething the pdfjam package could help me
[09:51] <_2> tell me what that says Kartagis
[09:52] <tiyowan> tood: And for making additional partitions, use gparted.
[09:52] <Kartagis> _2, rm: cannot remove `P1040606-kucuk.jpg': Read-only file system
[09:52] <tood> gparted
[09:52] <tiyowan> !gparted
[09:52] <Kartagis> !gparted | tood
[09:52] <_2> tell me what that says Kartagis    sudo touch /media/KINGSTON/boo
[09:52] <jim_p> scapor,  - pdfjoin concatenates multiple PDF documents
[09:52] <scapor> damn installing PDFjam needs to dl half a gigabyte :|
[09:53] <tood> ok thx guys
[09:53] <Stavros> i installed postfix but now i want to remove it, what did ubuntu come with by default to send mail to local users?
[09:53] <Kartagis> Read-only file system _2
[09:53] <scapor> jim_p: yup├á, that's what I found in thge pdfjam package
[09:53] <jim_p> scapor, its its latex dependencies
[09:53] <Kartagis> Stavros, ssmtp I think
[09:53] <onetinsoldier> scapor: really..?  that does seem like a lot
[09:53] <scapor> that's like downloading allmost a full CD-rom just for 1 tool
[09:53] <Stavros> Kartagis: ah, thanks
[09:53]  * onetinsoldier goes to look at depends for pdfjam
[09:53] <scapor> oh no it's only 300 Mb I see now .. but still a lot
[09:54] <jim_p> scapor, there is also pdfedit
[09:54] <trifecta> HOW DOES I USE BERYL
[09:54] <theatrus> trifecta, by turning off your capslock key
[09:54] <_2> Kartagis sudo mount -o remount,rw,dmask=000,fmask=111 /media/KINGSTON && sudo touch /media/KINGSTON/boo
[09:54] <jim_p> scapor, do you have openoffice 3? you can import all of them to a single doc and print them from there
[09:55] <_2> Kartagis see what that says
[09:55] <theatrus> trifecta, and then enabled desktop effects in the appearence preferences panel
[09:55] <scapor> jim_p: nope, I'm on an old PC now running and old Ubuntu version as my main computer is about to be repaired
[09:55] <onetinsoldier> scapor: i don't know how big pdfjam is itself, it depends on a few textex packages, textex is a pretty large package
[09:55] <scapor> but I'm downloaiding pdfjam right now
[09:56] <Kartagis> _2, that succeeded but sudo rm * gave me the error again
[09:56] <scapor> this download limit I have is going to be reset soon anyway
[09:56] <scapor> just takes some time it seems
[09:56] <_2> Kartagis rm /media/KINGSTON/boo
[09:57] <ButterflyOfFire> Hi
[09:57] <trifecta> lol theatrus i was joking
[09:57] <trifecta> sorry
[09:57] <_2> Kartagis ?
[09:57] <trifecta> xchat opened #ubuntu by default
[09:57] <scapor> hi ButterflyOfFire
[09:58] <ButterflyOfFire> I have a problem with NVIDIA GeForce 6100 on Ubuntu 64
[09:58] <kirkt> hello all. what are my alternatives when it comes to putting  GUI as light weight as i can on ubuntu server? i know this is a bad practice but this is a virtual box i'm using to learn on.
[09:58] <ButterflyOfFire> Ubuntu 8.10 of course
[09:58] <Kartagis> _2, that succeeded
[09:58] <_2> Kartagis ok, so the filesystem is not readonly.   so lets have a look at your command that is failing
[09:58] <jim_p> scapor, i am out of ideas then
[09:58] <Kartagis> sorry for delay
[09:58] <onetinsoldier> ButterflyOfFire: please state the problem, thoroughly
[09:58] <ButterflyOfFire> ok oneleaf
[09:59] <ButterflyOfFire> onetinsoldier
[09:59] <onetinsoldier> ButterflyOfFire: preferably all on one singleline
[09:59] <_2> Kartagis not a problem
[09:59] <Bax> i want to change the name of say a bunch of files named 1 through 10 to 11 through 20.  What's the terminal command to do that?
[10:00] <trifecta> whats the internet?
[10:00] <ralf> guten tag die damen und herren :)
[10:00] <trifecta> batch
[10:00] <trifecta> file renaming
[10:00] <Kartagis> _2, cd /media/KINGSTON; sudo rm *
[10:00] <stefo85> hi, how can i insert images in my pidgin 2.5? Now the option "image" is disabled (sorry for my english)
[10:00] <_2> Bax if the names are 1 through 10     for q in {1..18} ;do mv $q $(($q+10)) ;done
[10:01] <ButterflyOfFire> I have a problem with Nvidia GeForce 6100 on Ubuntu 8.10 64 bits. I tried to install EnvyNG and choose the right driver but nithing works. I tried both 177 and 173 but none works. It seems as if it displays the X on the top of my screen but I cannot see anything. Now i did sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and work with low resolution 800x600 but the Nvidia Driver is not enabled.
[10:01] <_2> Kartagis try full path insted     rm /media/KINGSTON/*
[10:02] <_2> Kartagis also -R is recursive   if that's desired.
[10:02] <sikun> i am trying to install ubuntu from a flash drive so far i have got the flash drive booting into the alternative install, but it still looks for the cd for the install files... can i set a boot option to tell it to look for the files on the flash drive?
[10:02] <Kartagis> _2, in a sec, the USB disk is on another computer
[10:03] <Kartagis> _2, -r is recursive afaik ;)
[10:03] <_2> so is -R
[10:03] <Kartagis> oh, okay
[10:03] <_2> Bax wait
[10:03] <_2> typo   i put 18 not 10   my bad   ^
[10:03] <digifor> On Ubuntu 8.10. Have Lotus Domino 8.5 installed. Error "Unable to bind to port: Port=6400 errno=98 "Address already in use"
[10:03] <digifor> How can I fix?
[10:04] <onetinsoldier> ButterflyOfFire: i can't help much, but start by pasting your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file into a pastebin. then state your problem just like you did above(use the up arrow to recall your message), and include the url to the pastebin in your message
[10:04] <digifor> I think problem related to MTA
[10:04] <ButterflyOfFire> ok onetinsoldier
[10:04] <onetinsoldier> :-)
[10:04] <Bax> _2: that a command error or just a copy error?  Your command just adds +10 to the numerical file name of each file, right?
[10:05] <_2> Bax yes it add + 10 to the number of the name
[10:06] <sikun> exit
[10:06] <_2> Bax any time you see a command like that you can add an echo to see what it would do.  i.e.   for q in {1..10} ;do echo "mv $q $(($q+10))" ;done
[10:06] <onetinsoldier> ButterflyOfFire: also, in case you don't know, you can go here to try and change your resolution...  System --> Preferences --> Screen Resolution
[10:07] <ButterflyOfFire> @ onetinsoldier, here is the pastebin http://pastebin.com/f3a4e5ed5
[10:08] <_2> and if you put my typo in you will see the error that would have resulted ...  a double move on the first 8 files...
[10:08] <yao_ziyuan> what is ubuntu's default html editor?
[10:08] <theatrus> the default text editor is gedit, though you're free to use what you like

[10:08] <theatrus> such as vim, emacs, nano, kate, etc etc
[10:08] <ButterflyOfFire> yao_ziyuan, you can use Kompozer
[10:09] <yao_ziyuan> i need a WYSIWYG html editor
[10:09] <trifecta> gedit is awesome though
[10:09] <_2> theatrus or "scream"
[10:09] <aaaa> --;
[10:09] <_Nike_> to install my internet I've put one file in etc/udev/rules.d but when me move the file to rules.d return "You don't have permission" why ?
[10:09] <yao_ziyuan> ButterflyOfFire: kompozer is very buggy, e.g. crash on opening Recent Pages
[10:09] <onetinsoldier> ButterflyOfFire: ok, add that to your original message saying... and here is my pastebin
[10:09] <LurkersA> or ed
[10:09] <yao_ziyuan> ButterflyOfFire: currently i find seamonkey composer very good
[10:09] <_Nike_> anyone know ?
[10:09] <ButterflyOfFire> ok onetinsoldier
[10:10] <KST_> hi
[10:10] <LurkersA> _Nike_: try "sudo <command>"
[10:10] <onetinsoldier> ButterflyOfFire: i shold have said.. add that to your original message saying... and here is my xorg.conf file
[10:10] <_Nike_> Lukersa how copy one file in desktop to /ec/... with commands?
[10:10] <_Nike_> sorry I'm new
[10:10] <_2> Bax one could move all number named files with something like    for q in * ;do mv $q $(($q+100)) ;done 2>/dev/null
[10:11] <_Nike_> copy /desktop/a.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/a.rules ???
[10:11] <ButterflyOfFire> It's done onetinsoldier
[10:11] <Kartagis> _2, it worked this time
[10:11] <onetinsoldier> ButterflyOfFire: ok, interesting. that's an empty xorg.conf file. it doesn't seem to me that it should be empty of you ran... dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[10:12] <ikonia> !give ikonia a test
[10:12]  * basileus gives ikonia a small yacht
[10:12]  * five gives ikonia a hydraulic pump
[10:12] <_Nike_> hello ?
[10:12] <ButterflyOfFire> onetinsoldier, I'll install the 177 driver then I'll paste the new changes of my xorg.conf ;)
[10:12] <onetinsoldier> ButterflyOfFire: i have instructions on how to make a full xorg.conf file. but it's not using the dpkg-reconfigure command, and it requires several steps
[10:12] <_2> Kartagis you're welcome
[10:13] <_Nike_> anyone can help me ?
[10:13] <Kartagis> thanks ;)
[10:13] <_Nike_> =/
[10:13] <joejc> i might be able to help you
[10:13] <ButterflyOfFire> onetinsoldier, don't worry I'll try to build my own xorg.conf manually I'll see what's the result ;) thank you very much for your help ;)
[10:13] <Kartagis> _Nike_, cp not copy
[10:14] <_Nike_> kartagis how copy the file of desktop ?
[10:14] <_2> alias copy="cp -i"
[10:14] <_Nike_> cp /desktop/a.rules ?
[10:14] <Computech> someone know what the difference is between vmware esxi and vmware server?
[10:14] <KST_> hi jmk
[10:14] <_Nike_> sudo cp -i /desktop/a.rules etc/a.rules ?????
[10:14] <ikonia> Computech: contact vmware or read on their website
[10:14] <jim_p> _Nike_, copy what file to what location?
[10:14] <jmk^ircN> ├Ç┬Ż
[10:15] <_Nike_> kim_p in desktop
[10:15] <_Nike_> jim_p in desktop*
[10:15] <_Nike_> sorry underline =S
[10:15] <Computech> ikonia, i tryed to read it but i couldnt find out what the real differences where, i will ask in vmware chatbox again
[10:15] <onetinsoldier> ButterflyOfFire: ok, good luck
[10:15] <jmk^ircN> hmm..
[10:15] <jim_p> _Nike_, please be more specific. you want to copy the file named "a.rules" from the desktop to /etc ?
[10:15] <Kartagis> _2, I get the same thing when I try to wget :S
[10:16] <Bax> _2: I'm having trouble executing your command both literally and recursively.  The files in name are ####.jpg and I want to shift the digit by +10 for multiple files at once.
[10:16] <jim_p> _Nike_, sudo cp Desktop/a.rules /etc/a.rules
[10:16] <_Nike_> jim_p from desktop to /etc/udev/rules.d (to my internet work)
[10:17] <_2> Bax see you just changed the entire ball game.   you said the names were 1 through 10   not 1.something ...
[10:17] <hischild> jim_p, it's unclear what dir he is in. Perhaps use ~/Desktop can be better.
[10:17] <jim_p> _Nike_, sudo cp Desktop/a.rules /etc/udev/rules.d
[10:17] <_Nike_> jim_p the dir of ubuntu's desktop is "Desktop" ??
[10:17] <jim_p> hischild, well he can open a terminal and start again
[10:17] <_Nike_> sudo cp Desktop/a.rules /etc/udev/rules.d correct ? "Desktop" ?
[10:17] <hischild> jim_p, true
[10:17] <_2> Bax that's why i asked the first question   if the name is only a number
[10:18] <jim_p> _Nike_, is your ubuntu in english? then Desktop is the name
[10:18] <_Nike_> ok
[10:18] <_Nike_> I'll try
[10:18] <jim_p> ok
[10:19] <_2> Bax new ball game.     Q=0 ;for q in * ;do mv $q $Q$q ;Q=$(($Q+1)) ;done
[10:19] <_2> Bax that only prepends numbers not replaces them.
[10:20] <_2> Kartagis sounds like path issue.   you can wget the files in question from your home dir ?
[10:21] <Kartagis> _2, yes I can
[10:21] <_2> Bax for a true replacement of numbers in multichar file names you'll have to get creative.   something like tr or sed
[10:21] <Kartagis> _2, maybe I have to reboot
[10:22] <xeroz> hello.
[10:22] <_2> Kartagis lol  no.
[10:22] <_2> Kartagis this is not M$ reboot is not the answer to all questions
[10:22] <xeroz> I am having confusion on making my own custom Gnome Desktop theme, by editing the gtkrc-2.0 file
[10:22] <_2> Kartagis what url are you geting ?
[10:23] <xeroz> I got the Panel one right, but I don't know how I can change the drop down menu background and text color
[10:23] <terryx> my system keeps crashing mostly when i watch movie...
[10:23] <pao> Hi!
[10:23] <Kartagis> _2, http://mtozses.sabanciuniv.edu/mtozses/netconf.ini
[10:23] <KST_> hi
[10:23] <xeroz> so my gnome panel is black, but my drop down menu is default white
[10:24] <_2> Kartagis try this, cd /media/KINGSTON && touch boo && wget http://mtozses.sabanciuniv.edu/mtozses/netconf.ini
[10:24] <Jordan_U> terryx, What graphics card / driver are you using?
[10:24] <KST_> hi~
[10:24] <pao> I've just got a eee pc... can anyone suggest an iso for it? I've found too many options (eee ubuntu, ubuntu mobile, ubuntu netbook remix)
[10:24] <_2> Kartagis if it errors tell me.
[10:24] <terryx> before i have nvdia then i remove my card then now i am using onboard intel 845
[10:24] <KST_> hi
[10:24] <Neurologic> !hi KST_
[10:24] <Neurologic> oop
[10:25] <_2> Neurologic !welcome
[10:25] <Kartagis> _2, it somehow succeeded
[10:25] <Neurologic> THat works too
[10:25] <hischild> !hi | KST_ ( _2 )
[10:25] <_2> Kartagis some how    hehhe  :)
[10:25] <Kartagis> !hi
[10:25] <Kartagis> !hi | KST_
[10:26] <Jordan_U> pao, If I recall correctly ubuntu moble is just for cell phones and Ubuntu netbook remix is a main menu which happens to be used by eee Ubuntu
[10:26] <Jordan_U> pao, So the only one that has and iso is eeeUbuntu :)
[10:26] <dns53> pao i'm running eeeubuntu hardy on my 701, there are better kernels and scripts to modify the default install like get the extra function keys working
[10:26] <xeroz> anyone know the script for the drop down menu?
[10:26] <Neurologic> So, I'm having dramas...I can't figure out how to install something from a bin file...Can somone help me?
[10:26] <Jordan_U> Neurologic, What are you trying to install?
[10:26] <onetinsoldier> Neurologic: you run a bin file
[10:26] <_2> Neurologic bash filename.bin
[10:27] <dns53> pao netbook remix is a different launcher and a modified set of gnome applets to look like the screenshot
[10:27] <pao> dns53: is there a intrepid equivalent for eee ubuntu?
[10:27] <Jordan_U> _2, Not executables are scripts, and not all scripts bash scripts, so that won't always work
[10:28] <terryx> jordan_u: sorry crashed again...what i do now
[10:28] <terryx> ?
[10:28] <Draggin> Sounds like you guys are on exactly the topic I want to ask about...
[10:28] <Neurologic> onetinsoldier, _2, those wont work, it says "command not found"
[10:28] <dns53> pao i think so
[10:28] <Jordan_U> terryx, Do you know what driver you are using?
[10:28] <terryx> intel
[10:28] <_2> Jordan_U first part true second part not applicable   matters not if a script is a bash script
[10:28] <terryx> how do i check
[10:29] <pao> dns53: Jordan_U: thanks :-)
[10:29] <Draggin> I downloaded and unpacked an application which works fine if I double-click the .sh script in the folder, but if I add it to the menu, it simply doesn't execute - absolutely nothing happens... Any ideas?
[10:29] <onetinsoldier> Neurologic: i never gave a command to try  ;-)
[10:29] <Jordan_U> _2, Yes it does, if it's a perl or zsh script it will fail
[10:29] <Jordan_U> _2, The #! line is not interpreted by bash
[10:29] <Neurologic> onetinsoldier, you said you run it, so I tried ./<filename> and just <filename> neither work =P
[10:29] <terryx> when i goto hardware drivers its written no drivers use in this system
[10:29] <terryx> any idea?
[10:30] <_2> Jordan_U and explain why   so it's not applicable.   the command would either run or tell him/us what needed to be done.
[10:30] <Draggin> Jordan_U - was that last answer directed at me?
[10:30] <Finnish> How do I output video (and sound) from my laptop via HDMI? It has ATI radeon HD3450
[10:30] <onetinsoldier> Neurologic: ok, roger that. you have made it executable, correct?   try   file <file_name>
[10:30] <Jordan_U> Neurologic, What are you trying to install, you probably don't want to use the .bin file but a .deb or synaptic
[10:30] <Jordan_U> Draggin, no
[10:30] <Neurologic> Jordan_U, doesn't have a .deb or package...Believe me =P I've looked
[10:30] <terryx> jordan_u, how do i know my driver's name?
[10:30] <Draggin> Jordan_u - okay :) Cause I didn't understand that :D
[10:31] <tauren___> doing a fresh 8.10 install with dual monitor (nvidia geforce 9500gt).  both monitors show desktop and mouse goes acroos all of it.  But i can't move windows all the way onto the 2nd monitor, it stops partway onto the screen.  ideas?
[10:31] <_2> Neurologic did you try  bash filename.bin ?
[10:31] <Jordan_U> Neurologic, Make sure that it is executable, chmod +x <filename> or right click and go to properties
[10:31] <Draggin> So does anyone else in here ever have problems with executing scripts from the menu?
[10:32] <onetinsoldier> Neurologic: try   file <file_name>  ...what's the response? can you view the file with  less <file_name>  ?
[10:32] <_2> Draggin script location "can" affect that
[10:32] <Jordan_U> _2, No, he would get a cryptic error like "bash: use: command not found" if it were a perl script for instance
[10:33] <AdvoWork> I know ubuntu hasnt got the best support for reading UFS formatted HD's but im sure I read it can, anyone know how I can read/write data to a HD in this format?
[10:33] <Neurologic> _2, Yep. Jordan_U, It is. onetinsoldier, it's an executable, it says ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1, statically linked, stripped
[10:33] <Jordan_U> Neurologic, Are you running 32 or 64 bit Ubuntu?
[10:33] <Neurologic> Jordan_U, 32
[10:33] <onetinsoldier> Neurologic: i don't know why  ./<file>  isn't working then
[10:34] <Hi> ┬Ş├░┬Â├│┬░├ş ┬Ş┬╗├ü┬╗ ├ç├ś┬║┬Ş┬╝┬╝┬┐├Ą~~
[10:34] <terryx> how to install video drivers in ubuntu..can anybody tell me?
[10:34] <kaushal> hi
[10:34] <ortsvorsteher> !details
[10:34] <Jordan_U> Neurologic, What happens when you ./file.bin it? Does it give any error?
[10:34] <_2> Neurologic set permission to executable and run it like any other executable   /path/to/file/filename
[10:34] <kaushal> any one here has configured modem on Ubuntu Server 8.04
[10:34] <Draggin> _2 - could you clarify? Where would the script possibly not work? And what can I do to make it work from the menu
[10:34] <ortsvorsteher> !modem
[10:35] <_2> Draggin in someone elses home dir ?
[10:35] <xeroz> anyone with experience making their own themes by editing the gtkrc-2.0 file?
[10:35] <Draggin> _2 - okay, the file is inside a folder in my own home directory, and like I said, it works fine either from the command line or by double clicking it...
[10:35] <_2> Draggin or in your home if you don't specify the full path in your /menu/launcher/
[10:36] <Neurologic> Jordan_U, command not found? O_o bash: ./RegnumOnlineInstall_32: Permission denied neuro@synaptic:~/Documents/Games$ sudo ./RegnumOnlineInstall_32 sudo: ./RegnumOnlineInstall_32: command not found
[10:36] <Jordan_U> Neurologic, ls -l RegnumOnlineInstall_32
[10:36] <theatrus> Neurologic, chmod +x RegnumOnlineInstall_32
[10:36] <Kartagis> does sudo apt-get remove d4x* give me dependencies too?
[10:37] <Neurologic> _2, Jordan_U ...oh wow. Ok, "Allow running file as an executable" wasn't checked =(
[10:37] <Draggin> _2 - just looked it up - definitely has the full path to the script in the launcher
[10:37] <Neurologic> I feel like a twat
[10:37] <theatrus> Neurologic, yup :)
[10:37] <_2> Draggin wait,  i think i see what you are doing.   i would suggest not putting scripts dirrectly into the menu   but rather putting them some place like ~/bin  and making launchers for them in your menu
[10:37] <Jordan_U> Draggin, What exactly did you enter as the command to be run in the launcher?
[10:37] <Neurologic> Jordan_U, _2, thanks for all your help, sorry about wasting your time, I just missed that.
[10:38] <Jordan_U> Neurologic, np :)
[10:38] <ceda_wrk> I have a thin client-computer, stripped down that I mounted in my old music tape case. It boots from USB and I've got a 2.5" IDE-drive in a "IDE-to-USB case". I've run "debootstrap hardy" on it, then added linux-image-386 and xubuntu-desktop.
[10:38] <Draggin> Jordan_U - this is the exact entry in my launcher: /home/uriel/SFE-Standalone/savage.sh
[10:38] <_2> Neurologic some times all we need is someone to put their fingure on what we already know  :)
[10:38] <terryx> why my system keeps crashing?
[10:39] <ortsvorsteher> !details | terryx
[10:39] <ValentineXX> ikonia: hello u there?
[10:39] <ceda_wrk> my issue is that while booting I get "Waiting for root" after 60 seconds, and after 70 seconds the usb-storage stuff prints [sdb] to the console
[10:39] <ceda_wrk> really don't know what to do about that, anyone got a clue?
[10:39] <_2> Draggin err umm i was typing while you were.    but if you are using a launcher to reach the script   and the script is executable   it "should" work...
[10:39] <terryx> ok...i have ubuntu.8.10 and my system keeps crashing mostly when i play movies...i have ejected my veido card(nvidia) because of this but no use...
[10:40] <Jordan_U> Draggin, Can you pastebin the script, maybe it doesn't run if stdin isn't a terminal or something like that ( if that specifically is the problem then modifying the script or just checking the "run in terminal" box should do it )
[10:40] <ceda_wrk> my /etc/fstab uses vol_id (-u) instead of /dev/sdb3
[10:40] <terryx> and one more thing i have installed ubuntu 2-3 times today but still noi use
[10:40] <Draggin> Jordan_U, _2, I will pastebin the script quickly and give you the link
[10:41] <ceda_wrk> terryx: reinstalling doesn't normally help (like Windows)
[10:41] <amerinese> terminal highlights links.  is there any way to alter terminal so that it can also recognize paths and allow me to execute a custom command?  i'd like to click on a path and view it in nautilus
[10:41] <ceda_wrk> terryx: try using another video player and see if that hangs your compute rtoo
[10:41] <ceda_wrk> terryx: players: mplayer, vlc, totem, xine
[10:42] <amerinese> (that should be gnome terminal)
[10:42] <ikonia> ValentineXX: yes
[10:42] <terryx> tell me play who can handle subtitle like vlc
[10:42] <Draggin> Jordan_U, _2 - here is the script: http://pastebin.com/d47ca5688
[10:42] <dns53> amerinese yes you can, you edit your  .basrc file, you can change a lot of it if you want
[10:42] <terryx> my screen goes different like some colors and then hangs...
[10:43] <Draggin> Jordan_U, _2 - I think I already see what's wrong though...
[10:43] <ValentineXX> ikonia: i did driver to "intel" in xorg conf , after reboot it was hard for me to boot with normal graphics
[10:43] <Draggin> I should have just read the comments in the script :)
[10:43] <_Nike_> ubuntu don't like me, I can't save one file in "home" permission denied, how can I've permission to make all ?
[10:43] <ikonia> ValentineXX what do you mean, hard for you to boot
[10:43] <terryx> And if i re-insert my nvidia card..how do i install its drivers..?
[10:44] <jercos> _Nike_: could you be more specific?
[10:44] <ValentineXX> ikonia: i got ubuntu display error, that ... i forgot :-s .... that was to start ubuntu with lower graphics, unable to parsel configuration file etc
[10:44] <terryx> ceda_wrk, tell me..?
[10:44] <Jordan_U> Draggin, Thought you would, the reason it doesn't work in the launcher is probably that the launcher sets the current working directory to your home directory rather than the directory the script is in
[10:44] <ikonia> ValentineXX try changing the driver line to "i810"
[10:45] <ceda_wrk> terryx: what codecs are you using? (try aptitude install gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse)
[10:45] <ValentineXX> ikonia: oh i was also thinking to do so :D
[10:45] <_2> Draggin well other than the fact that the path should be quoted   >>>> LD_LIBRARY_PATH="~/libs:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH" ./silverback.bin  <<<<  and assuming that "libs" is in your home dir make it full path  as i posted,   the script is fine.
[10:45] <ceda_wrk> terryx: "like vlc"? I can use mplayer and vlc with subs without problems
[10:45] <terryx> ceda_wrk, i don't understand, tell me steps plz..
[10:45] <ValentineXX> ikonia: and identifier to Identifier      "Intel Corporation 82865G Integrated Graphics Controller"
[10:45] <Bax> what's the wildcard character, like *, but for specific characters in a file name, like 00##.jpg where each # is a number?
[10:45] <ceda_wrk> terryx: but if you find that mplayer plays the file and vlc doesn't, then the problem is vlc
[10:45] <ikonia> ValentineXX identifier does nothing, don't worry about that
[10:45] <ValentineXX> ikonia: should i change identifier also?
[10:45] <Draggin> Jordan_U, yeah - that seems it was exactly it - it's running beautifully off the menu now :)
[10:46] <ValentineXX> ikonia: ok
[10:46] <ActionParsnip> yo yo yo
[10:46] <terryx> no the file plays but vlc close itself in some minutes..
[10:46] <Draggin> Jordan_U, _2 - thanks for the advice. Next time I'll try to read before asking silly questions :)
[10:46] <terryx> i can install mplayer from package manager
[10:46] <terryx> ?
[10:46] <Jordan_U> Draggin, np :)
[10:46] <Draggin> Ciao everyone!
[10:46] <ikonia> terryx yes you can
[10:46] <ValentineXX> ikonia: i am going to reboot thanks
[10:46] <ActionParsnip> terryx: run vlc from command line, you will get outputs when it crashes
[10:46] <Jordan_U> terryx, Yes
[10:46] <ValentineXX> ActionParsnip: welcome
[10:46] <ikonia> terryx: open the package manager and search
[10:47] <ActionParsnip> terryx: sudo apt-get install mplayer
[10:47] <terryx> ceda_wrk, so can i re-insert my graphic card(nvidia fx5500 256mb)?
[10:47] <Jordan_U> ActionParsnip, The problem is that I think it's his whole system that crashes
[10:47] <ButterflyOfFire> onetinsoldier, problem of my Grpahic Card solved. I installed the driver from the NVIDIA website and modified the resolution in xorg.conf in the SubSection "Display". Compiz Works ! The only problem I have now is the decorations of the applications :p
[10:47] <ActionParsnip> Jordan_U: ah so not just vlc
[10:48] <ActionParsnip> ButterflyOfFire: you need 2 extra lines in xorg.conf
[10:48] <AdvoWork> anyone know how to install gnuparted from the terminal? ive tried sudo aptitude install parted-1.8.8 but it cant find anything
[10:48] <ButterflyOfFire> What are these lines ActionParsnip ?
[10:48] <ikonia> AdvoWork it's called gparted
[10:48] <onetinsoldier> ButterflyOfFire: allright! that's dounds very good, except i don't know what the problem with your windows decorations is. and really, i haven't done anything for you, you solved the problem yourself.
[10:49] <apelW> where do I find kppp 4:3.4.2 ?
[10:49] <apelW> I need that version
[10:49] <Jordan_U> AdvoWork, "sudo apt-get install parted" ?
[10:49] <ButterflyOfFire> @ onetinsoldier thanks ^^
[10:49] <ikonia> apelW if it's not in the repo's it's not package for ubuntu yet
[10:49] <apelW> parted?
[10:49] <tiyowan> Okay, this is interesting. Before installing Storage Device Manager, I could use the fdisk -l and vol_id commands. After installing SDM and configuring two volumes, both fdisk and vol_id return the error: Cannot open /dev/sda. Running Intrepid.
[10:49] <apelW> ikonia:  it is an old package
[10:49] <apelW> I need the old version
[10:49] <terryx> got crashed again...
[10:49] <terryx> now what i do
[10:49] <ActionParsnip> ButterflyOfFire: in screen section Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True"
[10:50] <terryx> this time i get error message...
[10:50] <apelW> are there any archives?
[10:50] <terryx> ceda_wrk, i got error message this time
[10:50] <Joe90> Hi, need help with wireless on Hardy
[10:50] <ButterflyOfFire> ok ActionParsnip ;) I'll do this right now and pastebin my new xorg.conf ;)
[10:50] <ActionParsnip> ButterflyOfFire: http://osdir.com/ml/video.opengl.compiz.general/2007-11/msg00025.html
[10:50] <onetinsoldier> terryx: shoe people the error message. pastebin it if it's long
[10:50] <onetinsoldier> show*
[10:51] <Neurologic> Erk! O_O All of a sudden my appearance is broken O_O
[10:51] <_2> tiyowan just a thought on that,  check if the owner or group changed for the device
[10:51] <neil_d> I have mounted a drive via nfs and an icon is appearing on the Desktop :(    how do I stop it.
[10:51] <ActionParsnip> ButterflyOfFire: that line may just do it, try others from that guys screen section
[10:51] <Joe90> Wireless worked without problem on Gutsy, died after upgrade to Hardy
[10:51] <terryx> The greater application appears to be crashing. Attempting to use different one...
[10:51] <AdvoWork> Gparted is picking up my external HD fine. Its formatted in UFS and system EFI GPT, any ideas how I can mount it?
[10:51] <terryx> thats it
[10:51] <balony> What package contains the desktop update manager?
[10:51] <apelW> so, where do I find kppp 4:3.4.2 ?
[10:51] <Jordan_U> Joe90, What chipset and did you do anything to get it working in Gutsy?
[10:52] <jercos> apelW: what do you need it for?
[10:52] <ikonia> AdvoWork ubuntu has read only support for ufs, so you should be able to mount it fine
[10:52] <Joe90> Its broadcomm
[10:52] <tiyowan> _2: Excellent idea. Hang on.
[10:52] <ActionParsnip> neil_d: http://tombuntu.com/index.php/2007/10/25/hide-partition-icons-from-your-ubuntu-desktop/
[10:52] <ValentineXX> ikonia: no, it gave error message now at the time of starting ubuntu "(EE) No device detected"
[10:52] <_2> epiphany wont open   gives this reason.   ** (epiphany:5012): WARNING **: Unable to connect to session bus: Unable to determine the address of the message bus
[10:52] <Jordan_U> !icons | neil_d
[10:52] <ikonia> ValentineXX pastebin your xorg.conf
[10:52] <tiyowan> neil_d: That's normal behavior. If you want to stop it, then go to gconf.editor. Applications -> Nautilus -> Desktop and uncheck the Visible Volumes option.
[10:53] <_2> anyone have ideas on that ?
[10:53] <Joe90> In Gutsy just enabled windows driver and everything worked
[10:53] <terryx> The greater application appears to be crashing. Attempting to use different one...what does it mean
[10:53] <mnielson> did you check this out Joe90 http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2008/11/02/wireless-networking-on-eeepc-701-ubuntu-810-intrepid/
[10:53] <levi_> hello. hi can i check if java is installed?
[10:53] <terryx> its keeps crasing my pc
[10:53] <rww> balony: update-manager
[10:53] <Joe90> mnielson: will do
[10:53] <sproaty> is it possible for the windows key single press to open up the ubuntu menu? (I've installed the menu bar custom panel app)
[10:53] <ikonia> terryx it means the login manager "greater is crashing"
[10:53] <levi_> hello. hi can i check if java is installed?
[10:53] <_2> levi_ dpkg -l | grep -i java
[10:53] <terryx> so how to fix this
[10:54] <balony> rww: thanks
[10:54] <dns53> levi_ type java --version
[10:54] <mnielson> good luck just a guess, wireless is always a pain with linux
[10:54] <ikonia> terryx most likley configure your video card
[10:54] <ikonia> !nvidia > terryx
[10:54] <goog> Hey People! Which email client do you use these days?
[10:54] <ikonia> goog: there are many, what do you want from your client
[10:54] <sproaty> thunderbirds are go!
[10:54] <coldstove> mnielson/not at all.  It was easy for me to use wireless.
[10:54] <rww> evolutions are, umm, evolving!
[10:55] <ValentineXX> ikonia: http://paste.ubuntu.com/90709/
[10:55] <tiyowan> _2: Thanks for the tip. "sudo fdisk -l" returns the info. I think SDM took over my drive. :)
[10:55] <Jordan_U> terryx, Can you pastebin your /var/log/Xorg.0.log ?
[10:55] <goog> ikonia: to work. to not write data to disk (i only use imap accounts).
[10:55] <ActionParsnip> mnielson: not if ou buy stuff off the hcl.my wifi works out of the box
[10:55] <ikonia> ValentineXX looks like that driver doesn't support your card
[10:55] <terryx> no not nvidia
[10:55] <mnielson> I've had more problems with wireless than just about anything else
[10:55] <levi_> dns53, it says:   Unrecognized option: --version           Could not create the Java virtual machine.
[10:55] <mnielson> alot of wifi does
[10:55] <ikonia> terryx: you said it was nvidia gefore 5500
[10:55] <ValentineXX> ikonia: :-s
[10:56] <ActionParsnip> mnielson: yeah but thats ecause broadcom is rife and they refuse to release open drivers cos they suck
[10:56] <ValentineXX> ;'(
[10:56] <_2> tiyowan yes it probably changed the group for the device   you can  ls -l /dev/sda    and add the group to your user account
[10:56] <onetinsoldier> ikonia: i think he's been asking if he should put that card back in
[10:56] <goog> i dont like email clients that need a configuration. i would like one that just works like "email --serve =... --user ..." and doesnt write anything to disk.
[10:56] <onetinsoldier> ikonia: he has said it took that card out and is now using integrated intel chip
[10:56] <ikonia> ValentineXX if you "man intel" you'll find the driver options for the intel driver, check and see if there are any that may help you forward
[10:57] <ActionParsnip> goog: then where would your email go when they are prersented to you?
[10:57] <ikonia> onetinsoldier: thats up to him then
[10:57] <coldstove> wireless network is different story.  It's a big headache.
[10:57] <onetinsoldier> ikonia: i agree
[10:57] <dns53> levi_ try -version
[10:57] <_2> tiyowan i personally don't like the idea of users being able to access raw devices tho,  it's a security hole
[10:57] <sproaty> does anyone know why x-chat keeps putting this red line across the room at random intervals
[10:58] <goog> ActionParsnip: in memory.
[10:58] <terryx> why my xchat window closes everytime..and shows in terminal segamantation fault...
[10:58] <tiyowan> _2: Yep. Changed the group to "disk". Thanks, mate. Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. Whether to keep SDM or not; because the way it is right now, it's quite good that it prevents me from accidentally doing some sort of dmg.
[10:58] <rww> sproaty: it's a markerline, and theoretically all messages after it are new. Settings > Preferences > Interface > Text box > "Show marker line"
[10:58] <ActionParsnip> goog: well make a ram disk and make your email client download mails to that
[10:58] <ActionParsnip> goog: just set the emails to not delete off the server
[10:58] <Jordan_U> sproaty, It does that when you use another window so that you know the last comment you "saw" ( before you switched to another application and presumably stopped looking )
[10:58] <goog> ActionParsnip: i use imap. nothing is deleted on the server anyway.
[10:58] <neil_d> ActionParsnip: tiyowan: thanks, that worked,    is it possible to just remove one of many ?
[10:59] <sproaty> ah, that's cool, thanks.
[10:59] <ActionParsnip> neil_d: you could create symlinks to the ones you require
[10:59] <sproaty> It seems to kick in after not viewing for [x] seconds
[10:59] <ActionParsnip> goog: i think the ramdisk is the solution you need
[10:59] <tiyowan> neil_d: I wouldn't know about that. But you could do it with some tweaking.
[10:59] <coldstove> ram is very cheap these days
[10:59] <AdvoWork> anyone know how I mount a drive of type ufs? is it like mount /dev/sdb1/ ufstype=44bds /mnt/external?
[11:00] <onetinsoldier> terryx: it's beginning to sound like you are having memory module problems. i recommend you run memtest86+ for a while
[11:00] <neil_d> ActionParsnip: tiyowan: not going to that much trouble.  it is ok how it is.
[11:00] <terryx> onetinsoldier, i have done that
[11:00] <onetinsoldier> terryx: ok.. roger
[11:00] <mnielson> were there some downgrades for the partition manager on install from ubuntu 7 to 8?
[11:01] <ButterflyOfFire> back again :p
[11:01] <tiyowan> terryx: You dual-booting Windows?
[11:01] <Jordan_U> terryx, Can you pastebin your /var/log/Xorg.0.log ?
[11:01] <onetinsoldier> ButterflyOfFire: welcome back :-)
[11:01] <ActionParsnip> neil_d: its not trouble at all, its a single command
[11:01] <_2> ActionParsnip hmmm building on that idea couldn't one mount /dev/ram14 ~/.mail/something   via the system   thus making all mail exist only in ram   ???   like  /var/lock
[11:01] <mnielson> I remember being able to resize directly from the installer before, not so now?
[11:01] <ButterflyOfFire> thanks onetinsoldier
[11:01] <ActionParsnip> _2: i guess so yeah, no mail on hdd then
[11:01] <terryx> yes i have dual windows
[11:01] <ButterflyOfFire> @ ActionParsnip that didn't solve the problem of decorations
[11:01] <ActionParsnip> AdvoWork: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/installing-ufs-support-175822/
[11:01] <terryx> i goto xorg.0.log then what?
[11:02] <rww> mnielson: the "7" and "8" in recent version numbers refer to their year of release. There are two different versions of Ubuntu with each number: 7.04, 7.10, 8.04, 8.10. And you should still be able to resize from the installer: i did it the other day =/
[11:02] <tiyowan> terryx: Copy your /var/log/Xorg.0.log and paste it into paste.ubuntu.com.
[11:02] <terryx> ok
[11:03] <_2> terryx command    sudo apt-get install pastebinit ;pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[11:03] <Terabyte> hey
[11:03] <terryx> well..how do i copy..and where to go
[11:03] <staaleu> If I configure my disks in BIOS to use AHCI, the ubuntu installer finds them, but windows crashes on boot. If I use IDE (enhanced or compatible) windows works fine, but ubuntu can't find my harddisks. Will a never version of the ubuntu installer be better at finding the disks?
[11:03] <Terabyte> i keep getting @http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/g/gawk/gawk_3.1.5.dfsg-4build1_i386.deb@ when i try to install cd burning software ... or any cd burning software using the package manager
[11:03] <staaleu> newer*
[11:03] <Terabyte> cann't be found*
[11:03] <onetinsoldier> staaleu: i have the same issue
[11:04] <onetinsoldier> staaleu: when you installed Ubuntu, what did you have it set to in your bios?
[11:04] <mnielson> rww, hmm gave me hell today I decided to try out ubuntu as a desktop (love the server!) and managed to entirely toast my windows partition
[11:04] <Terabyte> a bunch of packages can't be found, this is happening acros all cd burning software
[11:04] <magnetron> staaleuÔćĺ which version are you using?
[11:04] <staaleu> I haven't installed it, but I could find the disks when I set to ahci
[11:04] <ActionParsnip> ButterflyOfFire: try in section screen: DefaultDepth 24
[11:04] <Jordan_U> !pastebin | terryx
[11:04] <ActionParsnip> ButterflyOfFire: if its already 24, try 16
[11:04] <staaleu> magnetron, pretty recent net install.
[11:04] <terryx> got it
[11:05] <staaleu> magnetron, but not the latest
[11:05] <tiyowan> staaleu: Don't know if this could help. But is your BIOS updated?
[11:05] <magnetron> staaleuÔćĺ try a recent alternate CD
[11:05] <levi__> wtf.....  W: Failed to fetch http://ro.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/intrepid/Release.gpg  Could not connect to ro.archive.ubuntu.com:80 (<IP_ADDRESS>). - connect (111 Connection refused)
[11:05] <scientes> whats the easiest way to dist-upgrade ubuntu hardy to intrepid?
[11:05] <mnielson> sudo apt-get update?
[11:05] <terryx> i have installe it...now how to open it
[11:05] <Terabyte> hey anyone know why these packages are failing?
[11:05] <mnielson> you need to run update
[11:06] <ButterflyOfFire> ok ActionParsnip (look at my screenshot http://is.gd/cVqW
[11:06] <mnielson> apt-get update?
[11:06] <staaleu> http://www.pendrivelinux.com/2008/11/06/usb-xubuntu-810-install-via-the-usb-creator/ <- xubuntu 8.10 should be recent enough then?
[11:06] <Joe90> quit
[11:06] <scientes> that just upgrades packages
[11:06] <scientes> not distro
[11:06] <terryx> /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[11:06] <onetinsoldier> staaleu: i see. i'm thinking the ubuntu installer, and kernel updates, does not have the driver for IDE HDD's compiled into it, or as modules. i'm just guessing here tho. if i compile my own custom linux kernel, i don't have this issue
[11:06] <mnielson> did that help Terabyte?
[11:06] <_2> terryx command    sudo apt-get install pastebinit ;pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log  # that both installs and pastes the log file   it's two commands seperated by ;
[11:06] <tiyowan> scientes: sudo apt-get install dist-upgrade.
[11:06] <mnielson> it should update the repository cache
[11:06] <ActionParsnip> ButterflyOfFire: i'm familiar with the glitch
[11:06] <Terabyte> i didn't see you m,essage mnielson
[11:06] <scientes> could not find package
[11:06] <ActionParsnip> ButterflyOfFire: you can use alt to help move the windows and alt+f4 to close
[11:06] <ButterflyOfFire> ok
[11:07] <Terabyte> apt-get update ?
[11:07] <Terabyte> ok
[11:07] <tiyowan> scientes: Wait one. Checking syntax.
[11:07] <ButterflyOfFire> yes
[11:07] <mnielson> run$ sudo apt-get update
[11:07] <dangit> anyone else having trouble watching video's on netbeans.tv?
[11:07] <Terabyte> thank si'll try that
[11:07] <mnielson> updates your respository cache
[11:07] <levi__> if i run sudo apt-get update, i get the same error with failed to fetch.....
[11:07] <mnielson> run into that all the time
[11:07] <staaleu> onetinsoldier, did installing with ahci in bios mess up your windows install? Ie. could grub still boot into windows?
[11:07] <terryx> its says unable to read from /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[11:08] <Terabyte> well i get a bunch of errors when i do that too mnielson
[11:08] <mnielson> what is the error you get now?
[11:08] <onetinsoldier> staaleu: it's not an issue becaue i compiled support for both in my kernel.. both IDE HDD support and AHCI is in my custom kernel
[11:08] <terryx> http://pastebin.com/f22ad134a
[11:08] <Terabyte> Err http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com feisty/main Packages 404 error not found
[11:08] <tiyowan> scientes: http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-upgrade-ubuntu-8.04-to-ubuntu-8.10-desktop-and-server
[11:08] <terryx> here it is...
[11:08] <Kem0`> hey guys, I`ve purchased the powerful Alfa 500mW wireless card, ubuntu 8.1 automatically installed the drivers, but it has a very slow signal and the LED doest blink, in Vista it works absulotely fine.
[11:09] <mnielson> hmm, try this sudo dpkg --configure -a
[11:09] <staaleu> onetinsoldier, I am just wondering about how grub handled everything, but I guess you had no problems (since you installed with ahci
[11:09] <Kem0`> mnielson, me ?:)
[11:09] <mnielson> and then run apt-get update
[11:09] <onetinsoldier> staaleu: no.. installing with AHCI on in my bios does noting to my windows
[11:09] <onetinsoldier> nothing*
[11:10] <tiyowan> terryx's file seems to be ok. Someone take a look?
[11:10] <mnielson> don't know Kem0
[11:10] <Terabyte> mnielson, same again
[11:10] <sproaty> Is there any way to make the "open with application" menu list all programs alphabetically? would make it much easier to find
[11:11] <Kem0`> mnielson, is there any configuration to let the usb takes "power" from the usb ?
[11:11] <Jordan_U> terryx, Do you need those extra options in your xorg.conf?
[11:11] <terryx> what options?
[11:11] <tiyowan> Terabyte: What seems to be the problem? I missed it.
[11:11] <onetinsoldier> staaleu: when booting with grub, it's no problem as along as both IDE and AHCI are in ther kernel, because then grub can read the disk no matter what the setting is in the bios
[11:11] <onetinsoldier> staaleu: does that make sense?
[11:12] <staaleu> onetinsoldier, yeah
[11:12] <ButterflyOfFire> @ ActionParsnip, I'll try to find the solution :) thank you very much and thanks to onetinsoldier too ;)
[11:12] <staaleu> just trying to see if I can find a 64bit version off xubuntu 8.10
[11:12] <Jordan_U> terryx, It looks like you probably have more in your xorg.conf than needed, it may help to let Xorg auto configure things instead ( though this is mostly a guess )
[11:12] <ActionParsnip> ButterflyOfFire: its some option like that
[11:12] <Terabyte> tiyowan,  i'm trying to install cd burning software, but when i try to install (from supported applications in add/remove) it gives me a bunch of errors 404 not found packages could not be obtained etc)
[11:12] <ButterflyOfFire> ok ;)
[11:13] <terryx> u know those line comes which comes before login window when you logout
[11:13] <terryx> ?
[11:13] <Terabyte> tiyowan, W: Failed to fetch http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/g/gawk/gawk_3.1.5.dfsg-4build1_i386.deb to be exact is the first one
[11:13] <tiyowan> Terabyte: Did you try changing to another server?
[11:13] <Terabyte> nope, how do i do that
[11:13] <sproaty> For some reason, python scripts open in a text editor but I want them to execute on double-click
[11:13] <tiyowan> Terabyte: System -> Admin. -> Softwae Sources
[11:14] <ActionParsnip> SportChick: chmod +x nameofscript
[11:14] <terryx> so...any sugession
[11:14] <Jordan_U> terryx, Can you pastebin your xorg.conf and / or try running "sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf-bak" and try restarting X ( if you can't get back into X, the gui, after doing this booting into recovery mode and running "mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf-bak /etc/X11/xorg.conf" will restore things back how they were
[11:16] <Terabyte> tiyowan, there's still a set of things i miss when i change server
[11:17] <Terabyte> as in when i actually make the change, and download the changes, there are some files it can't find (not when i click add.remove)
[11:17] <tiyowan> Terabyta: Still getting not found errors?
[11:17] <Terabyte> yes but this time when i change server
[11:17] <onetinsoldier> staaleu: windows won't be messed up at all. grub just writes to the disk's mbr. it doesn't touch windows or anything. however if you use the default kernel, you might not be able to boot windows because grub can't read the disk when you turn change AHCI to IDE. but again, windows itself won't be messed up
[11:18] <Terabyte> tiyowan, repository index's ttp://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz: 404 Not Found [IP: <IP_ADDRESS> 80]
[11:18] <tiyowan> Terabyte: What are you trying to install btw?
[11:18] <Terabyte> i just want to burn a dam cd :(
[11:18] <tiyowan> Terabyte: Feisty is no longer supported.  If I use IDE (enhanced or compatible) windows works fine, but ubuntu can't find my harddisks. Will a never version of the ubuntu installer be better at finding the disks?
[11:20] <mnielson> old respositories should still work though right?
[11:20] <Terabyte> mnielson, i have no idea,
[11:20] <tiyowan> Terabyte: I think what _2 means is that you have to add the oldreleases repo to your sources.list and take it from there.
[11:20] <Terabyte> how do i do that
[11:20] <ikonia> onetinsoldier what controller is it ?
[11:21] <tiyowan> Terabyte: No clue. But I'll google it for you.
[11:21] <_2> tiyowan yes they move the packages to oldreleases.ubuntu.com  i think that's the spelling anyway
[11:21] <onetinsoldier> ikonia: my sata controller?
[11:21] <Terabyte> so if i change the server to oldreleases.ubuntu.com
[11:21] <ikonia> onetinsoldier the one thats being a problem
[11:22] <trifecta> How does I use the internet?
[11:22] <sproaty> trifecta:  Good question
[11:22] <tiyowan> Terabyte: Well the stuff is at old-releases.ubuntu.com. Wait one.
[11:23] <Terabyte> ok
[11:23] <_2> Terabyte i'm not sure of the url  but it's something like  deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com fiesty main restricted universe multiverse
[11:23] <ActionParsnip> trifecta: you use a web browser to send http requests to a server via a URL
[11:23] <_2> Terabyte in your /etc/apt/sources.list    you can edit by hand.
[11:23] <ActionParsnip> trifecta: this is transported via the tcp protocol to port 80 on the server
[11:23] <Terabyte> lol ok
[11:24] <hischild> !upgrade | Terabyte and _2
[11:24] <ButterflyOfFire> @ ActionParsnip All problems are solved now by changing some command, installing emerald, and adding Option  "TripleBuffer"    "true" in xorg.conf ;)
[11:24] <sproaty> ActionParsnip: that's the web!
[11:24] <Terabyte> was hoping to just burn a cd, but if it's this much hassle, i'll just wait till i get my laptop back.
[11:24] <ButterflyOfFire> Thank you all ;)
[11:24] <_2> hischild can't make us upgrade, but thanks anyway.
[11:24] <eferuzi> has anyone experience wifi issue on compaq presario c700
[11:24] <yeryry> whats that command that shows info about all drives.. /dev/sda etc?
[11:24] <Terabyte> or wait for sombody to upgrade this >.<
[11:24] <Terabyte> thanks for your help guys
[11:25] <mnielson> good luck
[11:25] <hischild> _2, what you mean with can't make us upgrade? It shows the links you need in sources.list
[11:25] <ActionParsnip> ButterflyOfFire: nice one bro
[11:25] <sproaty> any fix to that amarok "cleaning HTTP cache" annoying pop-up-and-then disappear window?
[11:25] <onetinsoldier> ikonia: i'm sorry, i'm not sure i understand the question. my sata drives are listed as being controlled by intel ICH10R
[11:25] <ActionParsnip> SportChick: the question was how do i browse the web,I simply explained the mechanics
[11:25] <tiyowan> Terabyte: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-950590.html <- This post might help in adding the repo. I can't seem to find the exact path. But if you're not comfortable with editing config. files on your system, then get a friend to do it for you. :)
[11:25] <trifecta> lol how does i use the internet actually got answered?
[11:25] <trifecta> haha
[11:25] <ActionParsnip> sproaty: see above
[11:26] <ActionParsnip> SportChick: my bad, wrong target
[11:27] <ikonia> onetinsoldier there must be a chipset that is the problem controller
 How does I use the internet?
[11:27] <sproaty> ;)
[11:27] <trifecta> haha
[11:27] <trifecta> yeah
[11:27] <sproaty> you are using it!
[11:27] <_2> hischild the link ?    i don't think so
[11:27] <trifecta> ive injected a few of those in.
[11:27] <ButterflyOfFire> @ ActionParsnip thanks => the final result http://is.gd/cVxr
[11:27] <trifecta> the other one was : HOW DOES I USE BERYL
[11:28] <ActionParsnip> !beryl | trifecta
[11:28] <ActionParsnip> ButterflyOfFire: nice, i'd get a more fitting theme for emerald though, it doesnt seem to get with the rest of your gnome
[11:29] <ButterflyOfFire> ^^
[11:29] <tiyowan> ButterflyOfFire: Gnome Look has got a good selection of eye candy. :)
[11:30] <_empty> Just downloaded the desktop 8.10 version, but how do I install it without using gui?
[11:30] <sproaty> The window effect where it "springs" into place with maximise/restore in Compiz is part of the wobby windows  thing, right?
[11:30] <tiyowan> sproaty: Yep.
[11:30] <ActionParsnip> !upgrade | _empty

[11:30] <ButterflyOfFire> I don't care of my themes, the most important thing is that everything works fine .. yes It Works ! :p
[11:30] <Slart> _empty: I think the desktop install cd only does the live cd install
[11:31] <ikonia> onetinsoldier and in ide mode the ubuntu installer can't see the disks ?
[11:31] <onetinsoldier> ButterflyOfFire: i know the feeling :-)
[11:31] <trifecta> i have the latest compiz builds on 8.04

[11:32] <goog> Hey People! When you deinstall stuff, do you use "apt-get remove" or "apt-get purge"?
[11:32] <onetinsoldier> ikonia: ok, now i guess i get the idea. yes, in idea mode, but thay on hooked up to the sata ports tho, that's what throws me, even still i guess
[11:32] <ikonia> ahhh that does have very bad support
[11:32] <tiyowan> ikonia: Could flashing the BIOS help in onetinsoldier's case?
