[05:22] <Lilacor> rick_: fsck.ext3 <volumename>
[05:22] <rick_> I don't even know how to scan with ntfs utilities
[05:22] <rick_> I can't find them
[05:23] <Yorkshire> silvertip257: i have done, i did "sudo sh [Filename]  and it starts the install then says it cant continue while running an x server
[05:23] <Lilacor> rick_: look them up under your package manager
[05:23] <Lilacor> iehova: usually IPODs use HFS+
[05:23] <rick_> ok
[05:23] <rick_> thankjs
[05:23] <wlands> why sound doesn`t work on ubuntu 7.04?(
[05:23] <Floker> yo yorkshire, you dont have to do it the hard way
[05:23] <omha> Yorkshire, telinit 3
[05:23] <Yorkshire> ok??
[05:23] <Floker> just type in sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new
[05:23] <Lilacor> iehova: look for the volume underneath 'fdisk -l'
[05:24] <Floker> if youre using feisty, it is quite likely to work
[05:24] <Yorkshire> i installed thta driver and it messed up the screen resolutions etc
[05:24] <Lilacor> iehova: see if the volume is even detected with 'lsusb -vv'
[05:24] <Floker> thats okay
[05:24] <iehova> Thanks Lilacor, i'll try it now
[05:24] <Floker> you gotta change your xorg.conf neways
[05:24] <arthanix> I'm having problems booting after I installed my raid driver. I get the message "mount: unknown filesystem type: devfs" and the kernel panics.. I'd love some help. :)
[05:25] <Floker> i suppose you have changed the "nv" to "nvidia" after installing that package, right?
[05:25] <meridian> Hi, I am trying to install Ubuntu on a partition alongside XP, it keeps telling me that it is unable to find a root
[05:26] <iehova> Lilacor, lsusb -W doesn't work, and fdisk -l showed nothing.
[05:26] <Lilacor> iehova: did you use sudo?
[05:26] <gcbdm> What's the ndiswrapper package called in the desktop cd?
[05:26] <Lilacor> iehova: and I didn't put "W" I put two "Vs"
[05:26] <iehova> Oh, sorry. =/
[05:27] <Lilacor> iehova: it's okay, just read carefully
[05:27] <riotkittie> Err.
[05:27] <iehova> Lilacor: fdisk -l shows only the windows partition, and the three linux partitions
[05:28] <r00tintheb0x> iehova, fdisk -l shows all partitions on a system.
[05:28] <wlands> can anyone help me with sound on ubuntu?
[05:28] <acr0nym> !ask
[05:28] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:28] <acr0nym> lol what was it?
[05:28] <r00tintheb0x> wlands, have you checked on http://www.ubuntuforums.org yet?\
[05:28] <iehova> r00tintheb0x: Yeah, and I can't see the ipod there.
[05:28] <Lilacor> iehova: did you list your usb devices with lsusb -vv ?
[05:28] <r00tintheb0x> iehova, what do you mean ?
[05:28] <r00tintheb0x> ohhh
[05:29] <r00tintheb0x> you're trying to get your IPOD cracking with Ubuntu?
[05:29] <Lilacor> r00tintheb0x: that seems to be the case, yes
[05:29] <frojnd> does anyone know for any good program for edit mpg format?? I just bought handy cam HDTV and picture is great, I just need some program to edit movies...
[05:29] <iehova> Lilacor: lsusb -VV shows only "lsusb (usbutils) 0.72
[05:29] <iehova> "
[05:29] <Kalisto> r00tintheb0x, upgrade from Dapper to Feisty went without a hitch ;)
[05:29] <Lilacor> iehova: use two LOWERCASE vs
[05:29] <iehova> oh... OK
[05:30] <r00tintheb0x> oh yeah, last night.
[05:30] <staffa> hello, I don't understand the sense of -proposed -security and -updates directories of and ubuntu repository... any help or somewhere to read about them?
[05:30] <r00tintheb0x> good deal Kalisto, i didnt think you'd have much trouble.
[05:30] <gcbdm> What's the ndiswrapper package called in the desktop cd? Because I keep trying to use the cdrom as a reposotory
[05:30] <riotkittie> omfg. i'm dumb.
[05:30] <riotkittie> hahahahahaha
[05:30] <iehova> Lilacor: lsusb -vv just seems to hang...
[05:30] <meridian> Hi, I am tring to install Fiesty fawn on a partitioned drive, the installer keeps prompting that its unable to find a root
[05:31] <Kano64> hi, the mesa-utils package must be broken on amd64
[05:31] <Kano64> glxinfo kills X
[05:31] <Lilacor> iehova: if that is the case, there may be something seriously wrong with your box
[05:31] <Kano64> with vesa in xorg.conf
[05:31] <Lilacor> iehova: I get output right away with 'sudo lsusb -vv'
[05:31] <mister_roboto> meridian, did you format the partition and put a filesystem on it?  like ext3 or reiser?
[05:31] <iehova> Lilacor: Oh... right then... erkk
[05:32] <Kano64> also 915resultion needs a patch for g33
[05:32] <sander__> how can i do to auto start a shell program together with a wmaker when starting a session?????
[05:32] <meridian> mister_roboto, it has a partition, I created that through the Ubuntu partitioning utility
[05:33] <mister_roboto> meridian, did you tell it to put "/" on that partition?
[05:33] <Lilacor> sander__: use your .login file perhaps?
[05:33] <thrice`> are there any reliable pidgin packages around ?
[05:34] <sander__> Lilacor: where are this .login ?
[05:34] <Lilacor> sander__: or maybe your .Xsession file.. I fergit
[05:34] <meridian> I guess not, do not really remember. Should I recreate the partition in Ubuntu
[05:34] <thrice`> !pidgin
[05:34] <ubotu> pidgin is the new name for Gaim forced by AOL's legal dept. It wasn't released in time for Feisty. Expect it in gutsy. See http://www.pidgin.im/index.php for more info.
[05:35] <meridian> i have Xp pro running on the primary partition (C:) D: is reserved for ubuntu and there is another, F for windows data.
[05:35] <Lilacor> sander__: nevermind, I don't see it under my shell
[05:35] <sander__> Lilacor: is some thing about .xinitrc that you can say?
[05:35] <Lilacor> iehova: so you're saying you don't see anything with 'sudo lsusb -vv' ??
[05:36] <Lilacor> sander__: I think that's the file I was thinking about
[05:36] <tomcatt> does anyone have any ideas on how to fix the dcopserver
[05:36] <jokoko> im on the live cd, about to install.. how do i know what drive grub will map to? i have /dev/sda /dev/sdb /dev/sdc, and i want to install grub to sdc, not touching a or b at all
[05:36] <sander__> Lilacor: ok, i'll see here
[05:36] <meridian> mister_roboto, i have Xp pro running on the primary partition (C:) D: is reserved for ubuntu and there is another, F for windows data. can u provide me with a link with info on ubuntu partitioning ?
[05:36] <trenq> hi fellas, what's a good web development tool voor ubuntu?
[05:37] <trenq> web design
[05:37] <iehova> Lilacor: No, nothing. Just hangs there.
[05:37] <jokoko> how can i verify that hd0 = sda?
[05:37] <sander__> Lilacor: do you know what is the command line to put in the file? (exec program.sh ???)
[05:37] <thrice`> is getdeb.net generally a reasonable site ?
[05:37] <Sephnroth> gonna build a new server pc soon and fresh install of ubuntu for it.  is there any sensiable way of backing up apache and then restoring it other than copying htdocs and the config file across the network? :P i presume i can just do that safely
[05:37] <Lilacor> sander__: can't you just list the entire command with its path?
[05:37] <thrice`> !getdeb
[05:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about getdeb - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:38] <Lilacor> iehova: what about 'lshw' ?
[05:38] <Zambezi> Which one? vsftpd or glftpd?
[05:38] <The_Belgain> hi, i've got a vmware problem - maybe someone can help.
[05:39] <The_Belgain> during the installation of vmware-server using the default ubuntu packages on feisty, the postinst script fails to run - the error is that it's attempting to use eth0 as a network connection, when this connection doesn't exist
[05:39] <mister_roboto> meridian, partitioning is partitioning. if you have a partition used as drive D right now on windows and you want it for linux, reformat the partition when you're at that point in the installation. if you don't understand how to do that, i'm afraid it's beyond the scope of an irc chat. you'll have to google and read up
[05:39] <iehova> Lilacor: It just shows USB
[05:39] <iehova> That's it
[05:39] <phazeman> MikeS__: sorry... it was a boss alarm... i will come back later...
[05:40] <Sephnroth> also, in wine, is there any way to make a virtual desktop at like 1024x768 and force it to NOT resize the window, but to stretch instead? i wanna play an old 640x480 game in a window whilst im doing other stuff, but its horrid to play in such a small window
[05:40] <The_Belgain> i want it to use wlan0, but it isn't prompting me for the connection (it's not running in interactive mode)
[05:40] <Sephnroth> but wine keeps resizing it to the program res :(
[05:40] <andre_pl> when I'm using ps | grep something how can I tell ps not to return the grep? I know there was a trick to this but i can't remember
[05:40] <Lilacor> iehova: are you using 'sudo lshw' ????
[05:40] <iehova> Yep
[05:41] <sander__> Lilacor: i need to auto load idesk program, and i  don't got... :(
[05:41] <mayorbuttes> Hey guys, how do I get a cli login rather than a gui one?
[05:41] <someone> can someone point me to a document page where I can find information why the 7.04 won't recognize my floppy drive?
[05:41] <meridian> mister_roboto, oh no. I mentioned before that I partitioned it using Ubuntu itself, I need a unix partition, a windows partition will not work .. win is not even able to do anything on that partition
[05:41] <Lilacor> iehova: what kind of goofy hardware are you using?!@?$!@
[05:41] <DgrMouse> The_Belgian: I have just finished installing vmware on my new server and didn't have aproblem with the ports
[05:41] <iehova> Lilacor: Just some old p4 box. Everything else works perfectly...
[05:41] <gcbdm> Anyone know how I can get ndiswrapper from the desktop install CD? I tried adding the cdrom to me reposoroty. ut apt-get still can't find ndiswrapper
[05:42] <The_Belgain> if i run the VMware server console, the option to create a VM is greyed out
[05:42] <meridian> mister_roboto, I just needed info on how to create a root mount point while recreating the partition with ubuntu
[05:42] <Lilacor> iehova: do you get any output with 'sudo lspci -vv' ???
[05:42] <The_Belgain> i'm guessing this is because vmware server wasn't correctly configured?
[05:42] <mayorbuttes> gcbdm: Are you sure it's even on the disk? i didn't think it was.
[05:42] <mayorbuttes> Hey guys, how do I get a cli login rather than a gui one?
[05:42] <DgrMouse> can someone assist me in how to configure a decent firewall with port redirection to my vmware machines?
[05:42] <gcbdm> mayorbuttes: I can't find it manualy, but everyone keeps telling me it.
[05:42] <mayorbuttes> DgrMouse: Ubuntu comes with a firewall already
[05:43] <mister_roboto> meridian, the installer will give you the choice of mount point for the partition when you're at that point. choose "/" for the mount point for the root
[05:43] <mayorbuttes> !iptables | DgrMouse
[05:43] <ubotu> DgrMouse: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[05:43] <Lilacor> The_Belgain: I'm not sure if you're supposed to be able to make a VM using server
[05:43] <faileas> hmm
[05:43] <DgrMouse> I can't work out Firestarter.. I must be noob :)
[05:43] <iehova> Lilacor: Yeah, that gives a lot of info
[05:43] <Lilacor> mayorbuttes: ctrl+alt+F1->F6
[05:43] <meridian> mister_roboto, thanks for the help
[05:43] <someone> can anyone point me to a document page where I can find information why the 7.04 won't recognize my floppy drive?
[05:43] <mayorbuttes> Lilacor: I mean permanently
[05:44] <pietro10> Hi
[05:44] <faileas> i got a 128 bit wep network i'm trying to connect to, i don't seem to be able to. is there something i'm missing? i tried manual config and roaming mode...
[05:44] <pietro10> I just installed Ubuntu Studio
[05:44] <The_Belgain> hmm.. i thought it could - so what's the easiest way for me to create a new win2k install under ubuntu (i.e. a fresh windows install from a CD)?
[05:44] <pietro10> I have problems with X11
[05:44] <mister_roboto> Lilacor, i've only used vmware server on windows but you can definitely create a new vm with it
[05:44] <Lilacor> mayorbuttes: sudo apt-get remove xserver ubuntu-desktop
[05:44] <pietro10> I didn't have them with Ubuntu or Kubuntu, though
[05:44] <pietro10> When it goes to start X11, X11 crashes with signal 11 (ha) and it gives me a garbled text user interface attempt with the error clearly readable
[05:44] <Lilacor> mister_roboto: okay.
[05:44] <Nom-> Ah, crapola... Evolution uses OWA now instead of direct connections (Exchange server)
[05:44] <mayorbuttes> Lilacor: hah, no no :p. I mean, I just don't want to login via a gui. I still like xserver
[05:44] <DgrMouse> Lilacor: Are you having problems with vmware?
[05:44] <mister_roboto> Lilacor, some people confuse vmware player with the server and you can only play vm's with the player
[05:45] <Zambezi> Anyone would like to share a paranoid setup for vsftpd?
[05:45] <Lilacor> DgrMouse: no
[05:45] <DgrMouse> Lilacor: my bad.. isread
[05:45] <DgrMouse> ^misread
[05:45] <pietro10> Is there a tool for reconfiguring X11
[05:45] <Lilacor> Zambezi: my super paranoid configuration would be to have it shutoff when I'm not using it.
[05:45] <magnetron> Zambezi: i you were paranoid, you would not trust someone from IRC to setup your FTP server
[05:46] <arpharazon> Hello again
[05:46] <defrysk> Lilacor, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:46] <Lilacor> mayorbuttes: then just remove ubuntu-desktop and take the xserver out of your rc files
[05:46] <mister_roboto> magnetron, lol   good answer
[05:46] <hylje> can i install packages matching a regexp but excluding some packages from it?
[05:46] <someone> can anyone point me to a document page where I can find information why the 7.04 won't recognize my floppy drive?
[05:46] <hylje> (apt-get, aptitude?)
[05:46] <defrysk> Lilacor, run defaults
[05:46] <iehova> Lilacor: dmesg gives info about attached scsi removable disk sdb, but then keeps repeating 'sdb: READ CAPACITY failed, status=0, message=00, host=1, driver=00 / sense not available / Write protect is off / Mode sense: 00 00 00 00 / assuming drive cache: write through'
[05:46] <arpharazon> When I go to KInfoCenter and click OpenGL on the left the screen goes black, then I get the login screen.
[05:47] <Lilacor> defrysk: huh?
[05:47] <arpharazon> I don't think it's supposed to be happening... is it?
[05:47] <defrysk> someone, mount /media/floppy
[05:47] <[hydra] _> how would i take a program off the list that apt installs, what happened was i tried to install a program and it didn't get configured properly but now every time i run apt-get it runs through the dpkg --configure script even if thats not what i apt-get installed
[05:47] <defrysk> Lilacor, probably i misunderstood your question
[05:47] <bkc> i am installing 7.04 desktop on dimension 5100, the sata drive gets assigned /dev/sda, but then sda gets assigned to the cdrom and partition manager gets confused.  proc  shows the sata moved to scsi2.  is there a boot opt to treat the cdrom as ide?
[05:47] <someone> defrysk, doesn't work...gets errors
[05:47] <Lilacor> defrysk: I didn't have a question about xserver. mayorbuttes did however.
[05:48] <peyo> cze
[05:48] <heroin> bkc: wow thats one weird error
[05:48] <pietro10> Hello. Is there a command-line tool for reconfiguring X11?
[05:48] <defrysk> someone, mount /media/floppy0
[05:48] <defrysk> try that
[05:48] <someone> defrysk, still gives errors
[05:48] <heroin> pietro10: xorg-reconfigure i believe
[05:48] <pietro10> OK, I'll try it now. be back if it doesn't work
[05:48] <pietro10> exit
[05:48] <defrysk> someone, umount /media/floppy ; mount /media/floppy
[05:49] <tomcatt> !ubotu dcopserver
[05:49] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dcopserver - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:49] <someone> defrysk, attempt to access beyond end of device
[05:49] <Lilacor> iehova: install hfsutils
[05:49] <inflex> anyone installed vmware workstation 5.5 into Ubuntu 7.04 ?
[05:49] <defrysk> someone, umount /media/floppy and remove the floppy and try another one
[05:49] <Lilacor> inflex: I've installed 6, not 5.5
[05:49] <inflex> I try but it barfs out when it goes to build the new vm modules using the kernel source
[05:49] <iehova> Lilacor: ok
[05:50] <inflex> Lilacor: darn, I'm only licenced for 5.5 atm
[05:50] <someone> defrysk, already tried 3 that works on other computers
[05:50] <defrysk> someone, whats the errormessage ?
[05:50] <defrysk> (in short)
[05:50] <magnetron> inflex: what did the VMware support tell you?
[05:50] <iehova> Lilacor: done, and now?
[05:50] <Lilacor> inflex: find the patch that's floating out there so you can run the install
[05:50] <arpharazon> Umm... Can anyone? I get kicked back to the login screen when I click OpenGL in KInfoCenter.
[05:50] <inflex> magnetron: "Refer to our forums" *sigh*
[05:51] <inflex> Lilacor: ja, looking around again
[05:51] <Lilacor> iehova: I don't understand why your system doesn't understand 'lsusb'
[05:51] <DgrMouse> how do i do a port re-direction in the iptables firewall?
[05:51] <mjr> arpharazon, your opengl acceleration driver isn't working very well then
[05:51] <magnetron> inflex: that's bad
[05:51] <someone> defrysk, it gives a long output of error messages.
[05:51] <defrysk> someone, weird
[05:51] <someone> defcon_, Buffer I/O error on device fd0, logical block 0
[05:51] <arpharazon> mjr, Can I fix it?
[05:51] <defrysk> and other floppies work fine ?
[05:51] <CyberCod> Hello everyone, is it possible to get the new GAIM (Pidgin) on ubuntu 6.06?
[05:52] <inflex> magnetron: tell me about it :(  esp since I've paid quite a lot for it
[05:52] <Lilacor> CyberCod: yes, download the tarball and install it.
[05:52] <inflex> magnetron: this is what they send u to - http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?cmd=displayKC&externalId=1623
[05:52] <defrysk> CyberCod, find it at getdeb.net , works and installs fine
[05:52] <CyberCod> I'm getting some errors having to do with xml-perl
[05:52] <CyberCod> defrysk   awesome thanks will look
[05:53] <someone> defrysk, , Buffer I/O error on device fd0, logical block 0
[05:53] <Lilacor> iehova: what does your /var/log/messages say when you insert the ipod?
[05:53] <magnetron> inflex: what linux distributions do they support?
[05:53] <inflex> Lilacor: I didn't wnat to move to v6.0 yet because they usually either time-out the licences or they force-enable debug in them
[05:53] <defrysk> someone, sorry
[05:53] <Lilacor> inflex: I see
[05:53] <inflex> magnetron: well, put it this way, I got it to run no problem on Slackware and it's not supported :(  They say Ubuntu should be supported but nothing about 7.04
[05:53] <Lilacor> Grrrr.. SCIM is pissing me off
[05:54] <cox377> does anyone know why in ncftp  and i run get -R XXX directory all it does it download the folder names and not the files with them, anyone got any ideas?
[05:54] <magnetron> inflex: they just say or "Ubuntu" or they say "Ubuntu 6.06"?
[05:54] <iehova> lilacor: nothing. Not that i can see
[05:55] <inflex> magnetron: I'd have to check again - but I'm digging through the forums atm
[05:55] <someone> Does anyone have any links to document pages where there are troubleshooting guides for floppy drives? I have searched ubuntu on my own all day.
[05:55] <Zambezi> magnetron, I will of course look through it alot. I just want something to work on cause it's really hard to begin from zero.
[05:55] <jokoko> wow, ubuntu is very hard to install.. to bad there is no way to figure out which of my discs grub refers to as (hd0), wouldnt want to install it to the wrong disk... :P
[05:55] <Myrtti> hd0 is the primary master
[05:56] <GigaClon> anyone have this problem, when I save files from firefox, sometimes it creates the file on the disk but its size is 0
[05:56] <Kano64> jokoko: most easy way: power off all others
[05:56] <thrice`> jokoko: there is a TON of documetnation on how grub works.  try searcing yourself
[05:56] <defrysk> jokoko, hd0 is the master boot record
[05:56] <Myrtti> or that ^
[05:56] <Kano64> then you can boot with bios selection of right disk
[05:56] <thrice`> the grub config file even provides information
[05:56] <dabide> hi, i just installed xubuntu on my edgy server (as backup-option to access the internet, if  my notebook breaks down) - how can  i set it to NOT start at systeem bootup? i'd like to sartt it via the terminal, onlly if i need itt
[05:57] <tayfun> e you
[05:57] <bruenig> make sure gdm doesn't run at boot
[05:57] <pike_> dabide, sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove    then to start manually sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[05:57] <defrysk> apt-get remove gdm
[05:57] <Lilacor> cox377: the easy answer is this... the ftp server you're trying to do a recursive suck on isn't allowing you to do so
[05:57] <magnetron> Zambezi: https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/index.html will give you a start. but actually FTP is not for the paranoid - the passwords are sent unencrypted
[05:57] <dabide> i'll tryy thhx
[05:57] <defrysk> xfce should also start witn startxfce (manually)
[05:58] <Yggdrasil> is therre a way to have a different wallpaper on each desktop?
[05:58] <jokoko> Kano64: ty, did that last time i installed, just thought there was a smart way to do it
[05:58] <iehova> Lilcaor: It's the same as with dmesg, it gives info about attached scsi removable disk sdb, but then keeps repeating 'sdb: READ CAPACITY failed, status=0, message=00, host=1, driver=00 / sense not available / Write protect is off / Mode sense: 00 00 00 00 / assuming drive cache: write through'
[05:58] <inflex> Yggdrasil: might have to change to a different WM
[05:58] <Lilacor> iehova: tail -f /var/log/messages under one terminal window
[05:58] <iehova> Lilcaor: Actually, it wasn't exactly the same
[05:58] <iehova> but "READ CAPACITY failed" etc.
[05:58] <Lilacor> iehova: . . .
[05:59] <Lilacor> iehova: and unplug the ipod.. then plug it back in to see if you get any system messages at all
[05:59] <Moniker42> i just deleted something in KDe
[05:59] <Moniker42> how do i get it back, no trashcan?
[05:59] <Kano64> jokoko: the most smart way would be an edition option in the installer for hdX mapping - the devices.map file before actually installing grub. maybe there will be an installer soon that handles that right, just not for pure ubuntu ;)
[05:59] <iehova> lilacor: nope...
[06:00] <elnimr> what is that mixer thing for configuring sound
[06:00] <pike_> Moniker42, hopefully, if its not in trash then id just let it go

[06:00] <Yggdrasil> im blaying with compiz feature
[06:00] <Yggdrasil> thought desktops would wbe nice
[06:01] <Moniker42> defrysk: thanks :)
[06:01] <Moniker42> a design app decided to crash spontaneously
[06:01] <elnimr> hey what is the mixer

[06:02] <timmyw29> i'm on the lookout for a search app, preferably gui, that i can use to just search my whole filesystem of sub-folders etc
[06:02] <timmyw29> any clues>
[06:02] <timmyw29> ?
[06:02] <Tom47> timmyw29: beagle?
[06:02] <Moniker42> timmyw29: the searchbar in nautilus perhaps?
[06:02] <ynnk> hi
[06:03] <ynnk> Where is sshd logs ???
[06:03] <Lilacor> ynnk: probably under /var/log/...
[06:03] <magnetron> timmyw29: beagle
[06:03] <timmyw29> thanks guys i'll give 'em a look
[06:03] <timmyw29> i'm completely new to linux, just installed xubuntu today
[06:03] <ynnk> Lilacor: no :(
[06:03] <timmyw29> this has been a great channel for help btw
[06:03] <timmyw29> muchly appreciated
[06:03] <Tom47> timmyw29: thunar then
[06:04] <peyo> lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll
[06:04] <dr_willis> timmyw29,  locate command is darn handy also. :)
[06:04] <MikeS__> phazeman: It's OK, I figured it was something like that.... I'm on live CD so cant download the ubuntu distro.
[06:04] <iehova> Lilacor: There was an external hard drive were working earlier... but now nothing is
[06:04] <Lilacor> iehova: reboot your box and then try to list the usb devices
[06:04] <defrysk> timmyw29, if you like the old norton commander you might be insterested in mc , it rocks!
[06:04] <MikeS__> phazeman: I also went to terminal and typed in grub: i tried the 'root' command and it not working
[06:05] <frojnd> does anyone know here for any program that can edit .mpg video and support some effects??
[06:05] <timmyw29> sweet, i've got a few to look at now :)
[06:05] <defrysk> timmyw29, and for 2pane managers you might like gnome-commander
[06:05] <MikeS__> phazeman: I know you are not 'here' now, just updating you. I will use UBCD to remove grub and see if I can boot on one hd alone
[06:05] <dr_willis> frojnd,  depends on what you are wanting to do exactly. I use that avidmix program
[06:06] <iehova> Lilacor: Booting up and the ipod is flashing, so USB works
[06:06] <laser-> I'm trying to install Ubuntu on a Dell Inspiron 6400. I'm trying to boot the CD, the Ubuntu Logo appears and the "load bar" or whatever. after a period of time I'm getting a blank screen. Any way to debug this?

[06:06] <Lilacor> iehova: yes but the fact that you're unable to CONNECT anything to it leads me to believe that there's something funny going on with your usb subsystem

[06:08] <staffa> which is de difference between ubuntu-updates and ubuntu-backports?
[06:08] <Lilacor> !ask > ediskrad
[06:08] <frojnd> dr_willis:how can I install it, are there any repos or do I have to download deb file?
[06:08] <laser-> or for the very least how can I get some info on what the ubuntu loader is doing?

[06:09] <gabe> it just says dekstop examples
[06:09] <FutureMarine> can I have some help please not to be pushy or anything
[06:09] <Zambezi> magnetron, I'm going to force SSL. No SSL, no transfer.
[06:09] <Lilacor> gabe: probably because you didn't specify the directory
[06:09] <gabe> it says gabe@gabe-desktop
[06:10] <robdeman> anybody? how can I make something like 'ccxstream -f -F /var/run/ccxstream.pid -P s3cre7 -r /u/documents -S video=/u/videos -S audio=/u/mp3' run at startup?
[06:10] <magnetron> Zambezi: i would recommend scp instead
[06:10] <defrysk> gabe, ls /path/to/your/destiny/
[06:10] <FutureMarine> I put in the alternate xubuntu dapper drake cd and it loads but after the hardware detection it sits there doing nothing
[06:10] <Lilacor> FutureMarine: sounds like you might have to install a command line system first
[06:10] <frojnd> dr_willis: can u pass me that repo plese ?
[06:10] <frojnd> please*
[06:10] <FutureMarine> how do I do that
[06:10] <imran> hello?
[06:10] <pike_> gabe, the desktop there is the computer's name not the directory youre in. type 'hostname' for example and it will respond with desktop
[06:10] <dr_willis> FutureMarine,  you did check the md5sum on the cd?/iso file?
[06:10] <MrMiste1> robdeman: go to sytstem>>prefernces>>sessions and go the to the startup tab
[06:10] <Pelo> gabe,  that is user @machine-name,  you want your desktop   cd Desktop ,   case sensitive
[06:10] <FutureMarine> I dont get what md5sum means
[06:10] <marshall> how do you mount a cd image (.iso)?
[06:11] <Zambezi> magnetron, But I want to limit the access to the directories cause I have private files on the harddrive too.
[06:11] <Lilacor> FutureMarine: when you first boot the DVD/CD, it gives you the option of installing a command line system.
[06:11] <pike_> marshall, use the loop option line mount -o loop file.iso /mnt
[06:11] <FutureMarine> o no how do I check the md5sum
[06:11] <staffa> aa_: I undertand updates, but I don't catch backports... can you tell me a bit more about them?
[06:11] <Lilacor> FutureMarine: md4sum just verifies your files
[06:11] <robdeman> MrMiste1: Ok.. and should I move the freshly compiled cxxstream to something like /usr/bin/locale ?
[06:11] <defrysk> FutureMarine, md5sum <file>
[06:11] <FutureMarine> how do I check the md5sum file I am new at linux
[06:11] <marshall> pike_, ok, thanks man
[06:11] <Lilacor> robdeman: usually 'make install'
[06:12] <defrysk> FutureMarine, the result should match the given md5sum
[06:12] <gabe> thank you
[06:12] <robdeman> Lilacor: there is no make install target defined
[06:12] <MrMiste1> robdeman: you can do, but it shouldn't be neccessary as long as your command points to what you wanna do
[06:12] <rp3> whats a good video editor for amd64?
[06:12] <pike_> gabe, pwd or 'print working directory' will tell you youre location also
[06:12] <Lilacor> robdeman: where did you run that command from?
[06:12] <vbabiy> Hey is there a way to put a chooser on gnome like to one on OSX for login
[06:12] <admintroy> I am really lost with this port re-direction.. can someone assist if possible please?
[06:12] <robdeman> MrMistel: Well I just compiled cxxstream in /home/rob/cxxstream
[06:12] <Lilacor> robdeman: did you run it from the same directory where the program was compiled?
[06:12] <FutureMarine> so what are the installation steps for my situation
[06:12] <staffa> aa_: are backports the way to put in a distro software that initially was not in it?
[06:13] <aa_> staffa: yes
[06:13] <pike_> vbabiy, what is a chooser?
[06:13] <Lilacor> FutureMarine: first verify your CD image to see if you have a bunk image or not
[06:13] <robdeman> Lilactor: what exactly do youy mean? I have just compiled cxxstream in my homedir and there is no 'make install'
[06:13] <pike_> vbabiy, like click a username icon?
[06:13] <ediskrad_> hi again
[06:13] <dabide> hi, i just asked how to get rid of auto-starting xubuntu on my edgy server (i want to start it manually only if i need it) - so i removed the gdm entries and uninstalled it, as i was told 2mins ago, but now in the server terminal i cant start xubunut again, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start fails, and sudo xfce start is not found
[06:13] <aa_> staffa: but take some packages like the kernel, edgy has kernel 2.17.10/11 but one day someone might backport 2.6.20
[06:13] <vbabiy> pike_:  yea
[06:13] <zbrown> staffa: not necessarily software that wasn't initially in it, could also be a newer version of a piece of software that has significant updates to it
[06:13] <FutureMarine> how do I verify the cd its one of the options before you install it right
[06:13] <ediskrad_> i'll ask again
[06:13] <robdeman> Lilactor: the readme file says how I can manually start the server using the commandline -- but I need this to be done at boottime
[06:13] <MrMiste1> robdeman: keep it in your home cxxstream and do ctrl-alt-backspace to try it (bear in mind it will restart x and close your current apps)
[06:13] <aa_> bah 2.6.17
[06:13] <staffa> aa_: ah good example!
[06:14] <bruenig> dabide, startxfce4
[06:14] <dr_willis> FutureMarine,  there should be an option at the initial boot screen
[06:14] <ediskrad_> i trying to load a module of ipw2<IP_ADDRESS> patched driver
[06:14] <Lilacor> FutureMarine: you want to verify the .ISO image
[06:14] <pike_> vbabiy, hmm i dunno.
[06:14] <vbabiy> pike_:  ok thanks pike
[06:14] <ediskrad_> sudo insmod ipw2200.ko rtap_iface=1
[06:14] <Lilacor> FutureMarine: I'm not sure.
[06:14] <robdeman> MrMistel: You mean using Gnome?
[06:14] <dr_willis> thers also md5sum tools for windows - to verify the iso file.
[06:14] <MrMiste1> yep
[06:14] <ediskrad_> i et error: insmod: error inserting 'ipw2200.ko': -1 Unknown symbol in module
[06:14] <robdeman> ah
[06:14] <staffa> aa_ and zbrown so, the key word is significantly different?
[06:14] <pike_> vbabiy, there is autologin so maybe that would enable it. gksu gdmsetup
[06:14] <Lilacor> robdeman: you didn't run a ./configure and then a make at all?
[06:14] <FutureMarine> ok I did the option of detecting the cd thats the right one?
[06:14] <dabide> bruenig: : thx, that did it
[06:15] <MrMiste1> robdeman: are you using gnome?
[06:15] <robdeman> yes
[06:15] <robdeman> now I am
[06:15] <MrMiste1> i see
[06:15] <FutureMarine> ok I did the option of detecting the cd thats the right one?
[06:15] <cyzie> hello, i have a ubuntu disk from shipit. is it possible if i can copy all the cd content to a http server  then install the OS over the network?
[06:16] <aa_> ok, I need to disable gdm, and gnome, and boot a different window manager...what is the best way for this?
[06:16] <MrMiste1> why do you need to disab;e gdm to boot a different wm?
[06:16] <FutureMarine> I did the option of detecting the cd for defects and now it stopped again
[06:16] <FutureMarine> I have the system requirements
[06:17] <MrMiste1> FutureMarine: Sounds like it could be your cd drive, is it whirring really really fast, mine get's read errors
[06:17] <gabe> How do I stop x server?
[06:17] <MrMiste1> kill x?
[06:17] <gabe> yea
[06:17] <FutureMarine> Yea it does that then it stops and does it again but then I can install ubuntu version 5.04 and that installed right
[06:17] <robdeman> folks: where should I nomrally put a binary file such as cxxstream?
[06:18] <cox377> lila
[06:18] <robdeman> I dont want cxxstream to be in my home dir, thats so chaotic :0
[06:18] <rollerskatejamms> My sister is either brilliant or completely stupid.
[06:18] <staffa> do backports have a previous stage like updates has proposed?
[06:18] <rollerskatejamms> She manages to make firefox freeze up whenever she goes to myspace, no matter what the operating system.
[06:18] <bkc> for the record, regarding sda being reassigned from sata to cdr device during boot, the kernel option hda=ide-scsi seems to have fixed that
[06:18] <p1ls> how can i end sudo session?
[06:19] <boxnetnet> type exit
[06:19] <ShackJack> rollerskatejamms - Myspace is completely stupid :)
[06:19] <vbabiy> hey pike_ i found it in the Login Window dialog you can choose how to log in
[06:19] <rollerskatejamms> ShackJack, Well that's true but besides the point.
[06:19] <pike_> rollerskatejamms, its myspace trust me
[06:19] <ShackJack> rollerskatejamms - prolly a plugin on one of the dumb Myspace pages causing it...
[06:19] <bytekode> rollerskatejamms: or gecko is a slow, pos rendering engine :P
[06:19] <gabe> so, how do you shut down X server?
[06:19] <p1ls> how can i end sudo session?
[06:19] <rollerskatejamms> bytekode, yeah what do you use? Konqueror?
[06:19] <pike_> vbabiy, yeah i was playing around with it. i managed to crash gdm but didnt find that feature your looking for :)
[06:19] <ShackJack> gabe - CTRL-ALT-Backspace
[06:19] <bytekode> iceweasel (recompiled to remove bloat and speed it up) :D
[06:19] <boxnetnet> sudo /etc/init.d/X11 stop   or simular
[06:20] <dr_willis> gabe,  to do what exactly ? i normally just stop the GDM service
[06:20] <pike_> vbabiy, ah
[06:20] <rollerskatejamms> bytekode, ah ok
[06:20] <gabe> doesnt that just log out?
[06:20] <rijo> how can i find out the name of my internal ethernet card? its installed but i dont see the name anywhere
[06:20] <Myrtti> ifconfig
[06:20] <dr_willis> gabe,   sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop  (or restart) or (start) :)
[06:20] <FutureMarine> how do I fix my cd rom problem I have to buy a new one right?
[06:20] <rollerskatejamms> bytekode, Cuz I hate it when people suggest Konqueror. Blah blah yes khtml is a "great" renderer. But the text in konquerer is SO UGLY
[06:20] <ShackJack> gabe - well it ends Xsesson - or go to C/L and sudo init 1
[06:20] <bytekode> rollerskatejamms: i agree, khtml is amazing, but i hate konqueror :/
[06:20] <gabe> i do that but then it stops half way through
[06:21] <jueqel> My Recently created pdf's are coming out as garbled text on my pda. This is the case for print-to-file and OOo's export-to-pdf. (old pdf's unaffected). I've tried different fonts (times, courier, etc.). Any advise on what I should look for? (using 7.04 feisty)
[06:21] <rijo> Myrtti: doesnt show the name
[06:21] <aa_> MrMiste1: because I don't want it running
[06:21] <Myrtti> rijo: try lspci
[06:21] <aa_> MrMiste1: maybe I could get it to skip the login screen
[06:21] <rijo> Myrtti: neither =/
[06:21] <rollerskatejamms> bytekode, btw you know how sometimes fonts show up weird on some sites in linux? like on utorrent.com for example. You can fix that by replacing the default fonts with their liberation equivalents
[06:21] <Myrtti> is it pci/pcmcia card?
[06:21] <Neil-> anyone know how I can play rtsp streams, ie bbc news, though a proxy? mplayer doesnt progress from 'connecting to [address] ', vlc, gxine, dont work either
[06:22] <robdeman> MrMiste1:  sytstem>>prefernces>>sessions this is only when I log into Gnome right? I need to execute something just at server start.. not on login to Gnome
[06:22] <rijo> Myrtti: its on the motherboard
[06:22] <Myrtti> so it *should* be pci
[06:22] <dr_willis> robdeman,  for SYSTEM type things.. theres the rc.local script
[06:22] <bytekode> rollerskatejamms: try installing the microsoft fonts package... it's like msttcorefonts or something similar
[06:22] <MrMiste1> ah, maybe you should put that into a little bash script
[06:22] <MrMiste1> and do chmod +x 'scriptname'
[06:22] <robdeman> rc.local ah
[06:22] <ShackJack> rollerskatejamms - the vista fonts are really cool - stick 'em in your .fonts folder in your home dir...
[06:22] <dr_willis> linux is all about layers. :)
[06:22] <MrMiste1> then just run it ./scriptname
[06:22] <rollerskatejamms> bytekode, yes that works too if you set firefox to use them. but the liberation fonts are fonts made to be equivalent to those, but GPLd
[06:23] <FutureMarine> I have another xubuntu cd and it says Buffer I/O error on device fd0, logical clock 0
[06:23] <ShackJack>  dr_willis - like onions and ogres?
[06:23] <dr_willis> !find liberation
[06:23] <FutureMarine> during installation
[06:23] <rollerskatejamms> I prefer not to use fonts that are technically illegal for me to use
[06:23] <Rodel> Couple quick questions: 1) How do i set up programs to launch at login? and 2) How do i get sound to work?
[06:23] <dr_willis> ShackJack,  more like Legos and Cakes. :)
[06:23] <ubotu> Package/file liberation does not exist in feisty
[06:23] <bytekode> rollerskatejamms: the liberation fonts are nice too, but i don't use them
[06:23] <h4wk0> !find libjack
[06:23] <ubotu> Found: libjack0.100.0-0, libjack0.100.0-dev, libjackasyn-dev, libjackasyn0
[06:23] <rollerskatejamms> I use the liberation fonts on principle
[06:23] <dr_willis> Cake... Droooooooll...
[06:23] <ShackJack> rollerskatejamms - meh - legal schmegal
[06:23] <MrMiste1> Rodel, are you using gnome?
[06:24] <h4wk0> !sound > Rodel
[06:24] <Rodel> MrMiste1, I think so?
[06:24] <FutureMarine> I have another xubuntu cd and it says Buffer I/O error on device fd0, logical clock 0
[06:24] <MrMiste1> rodel: go to system>>preferences>>sessions, then the startup tab, and enter what you want to run
[06:24] <FutureMarine> what do i do
[06:24] <dr_willis> FutureMarine,  you got a floppy drive in that box?
[06:24] <MrMiste1> FutureMarine: sounds like your disk drive
[06:24] <someone> Does anyone have any links to document pages where there are troubleshooting guides for floppy drives? I have searched ubuntu on my own all day.
[06:24] <dr_willis> FutureMarine,  may want to disable the floppy in bios. ive heard of others with floppy issues.
[06:24] <ShackJack> someone - what's a floppy drive :)
[06:25] <FutureMarine> I just installed it because its a laptop that I have to connect the floppy drive
[06:25] <Neil-> mplayer http_proxy://myproxy.something.com:8080/http://wm-acl.bbc.co.uk/wms/news/media_acl/mps/fix/news/world/video/96000/bb/96939_16x9_bb.wmv
[06:25] <Neil-> this works perfectly
[06:25] <FutureMarine> When I did that before it had another error but with the HD
[06:25] <Rodel> Alright, Thanks MrMiste1 and h4wk0
[06:25] <Neil-> but the mplayer plugin doesnt connect
[06:25] <Neil-> any ideas?
[06:25] <nexous> When I drag my .ttf font into ~/.fonts it's not listed in fonts.
[06:26] <MrMiste1> !sound > mrmiste1
[06:26] <ShackJack> nexous - you have to refresh font list via C/L or just log out and back it...
[06:26] <MrMiste1> !sound
[06:26] <faileas> anyone familar with compiling ralink  RT61 driver in ubuntu feisty? i seem to be getting a LOT of errors compiling
[06:26] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[06:26] <nexous> ShackJack: I have logged out and logged back in
[06:26] <faileas> i followed the instructions on the wiki
[06:27] <nexous> ShackJack: I dragged the font to the folder, but it doesnt appear listed.
[06:27] <robdeman> hey I feel rc.local does not execute
[06:27] <psaux> hi guys
[06:27] <robdeman> is there any logfile?
[06:27] <buggy> guten abend
[06:28] <ShackJack> nexous - is the font in that folder?
[06:28] <nexous> ShackJack: No, also where is trash located in the system? (file system)
[06:28] <ShackJack> /home/yourdir/.Trash
[06:29] <FutureMarine> What other ubuntu os's work on laptops with the specs I have
[06:29] <FutureMarine> pentium one 233 mhz, 2.2 gig hd, 128 megs of ram
[06:30] <h4wk0> FutureMarine; Your prob best to use xubtuntu - which has a less whoring User API
[06:30] <ShackJack> nexous - to refresh fonts via C/L:  fc-cache -f -v ~/.fonts
[06:30] <FutureMarine> I have xubuntu and having problems installing it
[06:30] <FutureMarine> I need step by step help installing it
[06:31] <msingh> does the ubuntu live cd come with wish/tk - what about remote desktop?
[06:31] <ShackJack> FutureMarine - boot form CD - click install icon on desktop :)
[06:31] <FutureMarine> a live cd?
[06:31] <ShackJack> FutureMarine - sure, why not...
[06:31] <FutureMarine> because I only have the install cd
[06:31] <nexous> /home/nexous/.fonts doesn't exist, i thought that was created with msstcorefonts?
[06:31] <FutureMarine> were can I find the xubuntu live cd
[06:32] <ShackJack> nexous - nope you have to make it - core fonts go somewhere else...
[06:32] <vox754> msingh: yes Tcl8.4  and Tk8.4 are available, but none of the other packages I think... BWidget, IWidgets and so on.
[06:32] <bluefox83> ok, how do i get ubuntu to cleanly unmount a nfs shared folder? i tried the whole sudo umount ip:/Shared thing and even removed the entry from /etc/mtab and it still says resource is busy
[06:32] <h4wk0> !xubuntu
[06:32] <ubotu> xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of Gnome. For more info, see http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop". | For support, see #xubuntu | See also: !ubuntu and !xubuntu-channels
[06:32] <nexous> ShackJack: okay and should I move my ttf to fonts:/// or /home/nexous/.fonts?
[06:32] <dabide_> how can i figure out which graphics  card i've got installed using xubuntu?
[06:32] <msingh> vox754, thanks! what about remote desktop?
[06:32] <h4wk0> FutureMarine; http://ubuntu-cdimage.datahop.it/xubuntu/releases/7.04/release/
[06:32] <ShackJack> nexous - not necessarily, but I'd put new fonts you add there, that way if you reinstall and your home dir is in separate partition, you get them all back :)
[06:33] <omar-linux> installare tls in ubuntu?per amsn
[06:33] <nexous> ShackJack: Alright.
[06:33] <ShackJack> nexous - Fonts installed from repos don't go in .fonts generally
[06:33] <ShackJack> nexous - and I find the Vista font Candara quite pretty for the OS :)
[06:33] <FutureMarine> thanks
[06:34] <dr_willis> I just found docs on installing the vista fonts under linux. :)
[06:34] <nexous> ShackJack: It's ProFont, I'm using it for programming, would the PCF Fonts be easier to install/
[06:34] <Rodel> Is it possible for me to open the source code for the programs already on my computer?
[06:34] <ShackJack> dr_willis - yep - drag 'em into your /home/yourdir/.fonts folder :) end of docs...
[06:34] <faileas> I'm having problems compiling the driver for the ralink RT51 wifi card http://pastebin.ca/514201 thats what i get. i was following the wiki and was using the latest source from the OEM
[06:35] <faileas> wondering if someone could tell me whats wrong
[06:35] <dr_willis> ShackJack,  you missed the point of 'getting the fonts' :)
[06:35] <vox754> msingh: I don't think it is included in the Live CD but most probably it is in the repositories, though I've never used it.
[06:35] <bluefox83> how do i find out what is accessing a shared directory?
[06:35] <jueqel> would using windows fonts cause PDF's to go garbled?
[06:35] <dr_willis> ShackJack,  had to get that powerpointviewer to get them in the first place and cab extract them
[06:35] <FutureMarine> so what is a OEM installation?
[06:35] <darknet7> can anyone help me with a question on installing a printer in xubuntu?
[06:35] <ShackJack> dr_willis - ah... Vista fonts are on Bittorrent :)
[06:35] <dr_willis> ShackJack,  no need to even use bittorrent :)
[06:35] <msingh> shame.. knoppix used to come with it.. was handy
[06:35] <dr_willis> ShackJack,  wonder if the way i did it was even legal. heh heh.
[06:36] <ShackJack> Rodel - in general proggies on your computer are already compiled, you need to get source code, then recompile...
[06:36] <Neil-> mplayer http_proxy://myproxy.something.com:8080/http://wm-acl.bbc.co.uk/wms/news/media_acl/mps/fix/news/world/video/96000/bb/96939_16x9_bb.wmv lets me watch an rtsp stream via command line, but the mplayer mozilla plugin cant connect
[06:36] <Neil-> any ideas
[06:36] <ShackJack>  dr_willis - legal schmegal - they're pretty - specially Candara !
[06:36] <dr_willis> ShackJack,  http://plasmasturm.org/log/457/   even has a script.
[06:36] <Me2resh> hi, is there any way i can convert .vob file to avi or mpeg, or even burn it on DVD disk on ubuntu ?
[06:36] <dr_willis> ShackJack,  trying candra now.. it seems to hace some odd.. characters heh
[06:36] <Rodel> Shackjack - So to find source code do i have to search around online?
[06:36] <luna7kiss> hi, my beryl kills my video. I cannot play any video when beryl is loading. I am thinking that it has something to do with the rendering path. What's the default one that ubuntu 7 uses?
[06:36] <dr_willis> ShackJack,  im too used to the old ones i guess
[06:36] <nexous> ShackJack: Would the PCF Fonts be easier to install/
[06:37] <abuzuke> i have just installed xubuntu and i have 3Com ethernet device but i cannot reach it so i cannot use my internet connection, what can i do?
[06:37] <ShackJack> Rodel - yes, ususally there is a link for it on the proggie website, or you can get it from the distros (usually has src in "program" name)
[06:37] <Me2resh> hi, is there any way i can convert .vob file to avi or mpeg, or even burn it on DVD disk on ubuntu ?
[06:37] <ShackJack> nexous - PCF, sorry not familiar - TTF isn't hard at all...
[06:37] <luna7kiss> hi, my beryl kills my video. I cannot play any video when beryl is loading. I am thinking that it has something to do with the rendering path. What's the default one that ubuntu 7 uses?
[06:37] <vox754> msingh: anyways, if you are doing some Tcl/Tk programming I suggest you ActiveTcl from Active State, a full featured distribution of Tcl with packages and documentation
[06:37] <bluefox83> luna7kiss, that's actually a rather common problem, depending on yoru card beryl can do anything from crash your video to just make it laggy...solution is to switch window managers inthe beryl manager before playing a movie...
[06:38] <nexous> ShackJack: I ended up moving to /usr/share/fonts/truetype/msstcorefonts.
[06:38] <nexous> ShackJack: No luck.
[06:38] <pietro10> Hello again. I don't have xorg-reconfigure. I'll clarify my statement from eariler: X11 generates SIGSEGV (11) when loading
[06:38] <luna7kiss> bluefox83, i am on i810
[06:38] <ShackJack> nexous - no luck with what?
[06:38] <nexous> ShackJack: Even after running fc-cache.
[06:38] <msingh> vox754, nah i have some other dependencies that make things difficult (on say windows)
[06:38] <luna7kiss> luna7kiss, does ubuntu 7 use aiglx or xgl?
[06:38] <leagris> Me2resh, if these vob are from a DVD you made yourself you can use avidemux. Either way, decyphering DVD  may be outlawed in your country.
[06:38] <bluefox83> luna7kiss, that would be why, i810 has like 24 bits of onboard video memory..hardly any at all
[06:39] <luna7kiss> bluefox83, but my beryl does not lag at all
[06:39] <abuzuke> i have just installed xubuntu and i have 3Com ethernet device but i cannot reach it so i cannot use my internet connection, what can i do?
[06:39] <luna7kiss> bluefox83, in fact, it runs smoother than my friend's ati 9200
[06:39] <ShackJack> nexous - if your fonts are in that dir it should work... Not much more to it, really... You could add 	FontPath	"/home/mydir/.fonts" under the "Files" section of your xorg.conf, I suppose...
[06:39] <vox754> msingh: ActiveTcl is available for Windows and Linux. You code it once, and it mostly runs the same on both platforms.
[06:39] <dr_willis> abuzuke,  you are refering to a normal wired network card?
[06:39] <bluefox83> luna7kiss, beryl isn't exactly stable, it's still a work-in-progress..there are going to be some bugs
[06:40] <k31th> humm is AMD64 version of ubuntu just a PITA ? should i just run 32bit version if i want a nice easy life? seems getting firefox to work with amd64 is an ass?
[06:40] <Me2resh> leagris, it is not copyrighted, it is a dvd someone made for me, and i copied the .vob file only and need to burn it as dvd again - tell me more about avidemux please
[06:40] <luna7kiss> bluefox83, hmm ok
[06:40] <vox754> !flash64
[06:40] <ubotu> You can run Flash, Real, and Java plugins in AMD64 bit computers with Firefox. see the steps to follow at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava
[06:40] <k31th> vox754: yeah i see that, but is that just the begining of my hell?
[06:41] <k31th> i mean im i going to get hell like this everyday? + is running amd64 going to be any faster?
[06:41] <vox754> k31th: yes. Also don't use words like a** here
[06:41] <k31th> ok
[06:41] <k31th> vox754: so it is going to be a pain?
[06:41] <leagris> Me2resh, if your intend is to burn it on DVD again, all you need to do is put these vob files in a directory VIDEO_TS and burn it to DVD. You may like to use k3b which has build in DVD project authoring and presets suitable for this.
[06:42] <msingh> whats the default root passwd for the livecd?
[06:42] <w1jrm> can anyone here tell me how to set up my Ubuntu to file share, I want to run my storage server with ubuntu but have to be able to share it with MS Windows platform PC
[06:42] <FutureMarine> it might be toor
[06:42] <leagris> msingh, livecd has no root password
[06:42] <msingh> then how do i go root?
[06:42] <vox754> k31th: yes, it is going to hurt. Unless you are doing some crazy programming numerical analysis to study molecules, stick to 32 bit.
[06:42] <dr_willis> sudo -s
[06:42] <leagris> msingh, sudo
[06:42] <w1jrm> Ubunutu PC will primary as a server for backups and storage
[06:43] <nexous> This is pissing me off, All I need is 1 single font installed and it's not working.
[06:43] <leagris> Using the live CD so will enable you to hack in any box you put it in :/
[06:43] <k31th> vox754: thanks man.
[06:43] <darknet7> Anyone with time to help with a question for installing printer?
[06:44] <msingh> hm there is no clisp package?
[06:44] <leagris> Especialy if the box is running linux. I recall this to admins so they lock bootcd, bios settings and these minimal prevention
[06:44] <weeder> hi, anyone have any idea how i can run su over ssh
[06:44] <FutureMarine> ok what the hell is the problem with this installation because everytime it has an error because there is no fd0 and then when I plug it in and start it in safe mode to install it it sits there with a blinking thing
[06:44] <Dreamkey> type 'su'
[06:45] <harry> is there a GUI frontend for gnuplot
[06:45] <weeder> su wont auth over ssh
[06:45] <secret> Hey guys!
[06:45] <Skreet> su won't auth in Ubuntu, by default.
[06:45] <Skreet> Did you set a root password?
[06:45] <Skreet> i.e. 'sudo passwd'
[06:45] <ShackJack> nexous - do you get preview of fonts in .fonts folder when browsing...
[06:45] <weeder> no but it works  wehn im at the machine just not over ssh
[06:45] <Jack_Sparrow> I saw a post that you could have an automatic logon in Ubuntu.  Is that for the new version or will Dapper do it as well?
[06:45] <Skreet> You can either do that, or 'sudo bash' to get a root shell.
[06:45] <FutureMarine> now I have a hdc device error
[06:46] <Skreet> weeder: Oh, that's strange.
[06:46] <Skreet> What version?
[06:46] <weeder> sudo bash worked
[06:46] <weeder> its 7.04
[06:46] <Skreet> Yeah, it's a slick workaround.
[06:46] <nub19> is there a better alternative for amarok? pos keeps on crashing
[06:46] <weeder> thanks
[06:46] <Skreet> My server is 6.04LTS, and su works over ssh, but it may be a su limit.. I'm not sure where the su configs are, check man su?
[06:46] <secret> Can someone tell me where the Temporary Internet Files are within Ubuntu? (Eqiv-windows: C:\Documents and Setttings\Joe Fruit\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files.
[06:46] <secret> ?
[06:47] <Skreet> secret: That's a good question, you can probably clear them from the browser...
[06:47] <leagris> FutureMarine, don't you have those onboard SATA controler with PATA emulated for CDROM there are no linux module to drive it?
[06:47] <nub19> is there a better alternative for amarok? it keeps on crashing
[06:47] <bluefox83> is there a way to compile something and make it into a .deb for easy installation?
[06:47] <dr_willis> secret,   in .firefox or .mozilla i belive
[06:47] <FutureMarine> What do I do?
[06:47] <Skreet> nub19: Better is a matter of persepective, you might check xmms, or beep-media-player.
[06:47] <secret> No, I want to keep them and copy the videos which stream onto my borwser..
[06:47] <secret> rowser
[06:47] <leagris> :debmake
[06:47] <Skreet> Neither are as feature-full.
[06:47] <leagris> !debmake
[06:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about debmake - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:47] <leagris> !apt-build
[06:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about apt-build - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:47] <bluefox83> !makedeb
[06:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about makedeb - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:47] <bluefox83> O.o
[06:48] <nub19> want something with an autofill of the playlist
[06:48] <Skreet> 'Sorry, I don't know anything'.
[06:48] <Kjellviz> Skreet: sorry to jump in the middle, but not as feature full as what ?
[06:48] <Skreet> Kjellviz: Amarok.
[06:48] <Skreet> His original question was a replacement for amarok
[06:48] <Kjellviz> Skreet: aha
[06:48] <Neil-> Hey.. To get the Mozilla development files there are two options 1. mozilla-devel package (includes pkg-config files) 2. gecko-sdk .. Where do I get these?
[06:48] <Neil-> dont see either in the repos..
[06:48] <leagris> bluefox83, ther is a tutorial on making deb package somewhere on the ubuntu wiki.
[06:48] <Skreet> brb'
[06:48] <secret> Dr_willis: where do the cookies go?
[06:48] <Kjellviz> well amarok started once on my comp
[06:49] <dr_willis> secret,  in the same place somewhere.
[06:49] <ShackJack> nub19 - Exhaile is coming along nicely - good if you use GNOME, thought it doesn't seem to read WMA files...
[06:49] <Kjellviz> now it just doesent start ><
[06:49] <secret> where is that place?
[06:49] <nub19> i'm using fluxbox
[06:49] <nub19> exhaile works on it?
[06:49] <nub19> only have mp3s
[06:49] <r00tintheb0x> back, had to go to work and exchange tapes in the LTO3 drive
[06:49] <r00tintheb0x> :)
[06:49] <ShackJack> I dunno about fluxbox, but most WMS just load the extra libraries ot run the proggies (a la Amarok/KDE)
[06:49] <dr_willis> secret,  its ALL in the .mozilla dir. :)
[06:50] <secret> ok
[06:50] <bluefox83> leagris, having trouble finding it :(
[06:50] <Neil-> My INSTALL file says: To get the Mozilla development files there are two options 1. mozilla-devel package (includes pkg-config files) 2. gecko-sdk .. Where do I get these?
[06:50] <nub19> is there a site with all the shortcuts listed in linux?
[06:50] <ShackJack> "secret: Dr_willis: where do the cookies go?" - in my tummy! :)
[06:50] <dr_willis> nub19,  what shortcuts?
[06:50] <dr_willis> ShackJack,  im on a diet. :)
[06:50] <secret> Yeah lol, I thought I would recieve some sort of joke with that line :D
[06:50] <nub19> like what does alt+shift + f1 do
[06:51] <nub19> how to run an app directly
[06:51] <nub19> etc
[06:51] <abuzuke_> i have just installed ubuntu and i have a 3Com ethernet device but i cannot use internet connection?
[06:51] <Kjellviz> Skreet: where to find this Exhail ?
[06:51] <dr_willis> nub19,  id say check the gnome docs for that info. :) and the keybinding/shortcut perferance tool
[06:51] <robdeman> OOOPS!
[06:51] <dr_willis> nub19,  gnomes 'shortcut keys' are specific for ggnome - not 'linux' :)
[06:51] <robdeman> I did a chmod -R 0777 /home/rob/ --> now I have big problem slogging into Gnome?
[06:52] <ShackJack> Kjellviz - http://www.exaile.org
[06:52] <radioaktivstorm> hello! anyone know how to deal with a fussy linksys router? I have here an unsecured linksys router that allows access to the internet based on MAC address. i added mine to the list, and it works (occasionally) other times it does not assign me an ip. any pointers?
[06:52] <nub19> whats the equivalent of start - execute (windows) in fluxbox?
[06:52] <Kjellviz> ShackJack: ahhh thanks, i was misspelling it ><
[06:52] <ShackJack> Kjellviz - I spelld wrong - :(
[06:52] <robdeman> Gnome is bitching about $HOMR should no be writable by otehrs.. ~home/.dmrc... ??
[06:52] <abuzuke_> i also cant see that device on network configuration window
[06:52] <tessercat> Gnome is right.
[06:52] <ShackJack> Kjellviz - it's just starting but nice - aim to be a gtk alt to amarok...
[06:52] <abuzuke_> it only shows my dial-up modem
[06:53] <abuzuke_> anyone can help me to solve this problem
[06:53] <vegar__> How am I supposed to play movies from an SMB share with VLC or any other video player except Totem?
[06:53] <secret> Where do I find this folder with the Internet temp files? I've been looking for hours within the file system.
[06:53] <ShackJack> vegar__ - eh? shouldn't matter if you'r playing from a share or local file...
[06:54] <secret> mozilla.dir? nope
[06:54] <tessercat> secret: for your browser?
[06:54] <ShackJack> secret - yep /home/yourdir/.mozilla/
[06:54] <vegar__> when i'm browsing with nautilus the files are of type "smb://" which apparently requires all applications to implement the smb protocol
[06:54] <bulmer> abuzuke: what do you get when you type "nm-tool"
[06:55] <tessercat> whut ShackJack said
[06:55] <ShackJack> secret - then firefox and dfewefij.default, etc...
[06:55] <bluefox83> whats the link for the official ubuntu wiki?
[06:55] <benpi> hi everyone
[06:55] <vegar__> ShackJack: I agree.. it SHOULDN'T matter, but apparently it does
[06:55] <qiyong> on smp, why my top doesn't show all the cpus?
[06:55] <kbrooks> sorry to be offtopic
[06:55] <kbrooks> but
[06:55] <nub19> whats the shortcut to minimalize all windows?
[06:55] <benpi> I've hard kernel freezes (with untainted kernel, no binary drivers etc.),
[06:55] <ShackJack> vegar__ - in what way - you'll need to be more specific - Open With should do the trick...
[06:55] <leagris> bluefox83, http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/packagingguide/C/index.html
[06:56] <ShackJack> nub19 - add show desktop thingie to your panel...
[06:56] <tessercat> nub - you should have an icon on one of the panels
[06:56] <leagris> !packagingguide
[06:56] <ubotu> The packaging guide is at http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/packagingguide/C/index.html - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Packages/New for information on getting a package integrated into Ubuntu - Other developer resources are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DeveloperResources - See also !backports
[06:56] <kbrooks> is there a rss to email svc on the internet
[06:56] <radioaktivstorm> nub19 ctrl alt d
[06:56] <benpi> ... and I don't know where to look at, any tip ?
[06:56] <shea_> anyone know offhand what happens when i click a panel launcher that points to a webpage?
[06:56] <Clarrisa_2008> why do I get the errors:  NameVirtualHost *:80 has no VirtualHosts
[06:56] <kbrooks> bc id like to get new rss stuff by email
[06:56] <shea_> what handles that, etc
[06:56] <ShackJack> tessercat - though he uses Fluxbox IIR...
[06:56] <abuzuke_> bulmer, it says nm-tool is not installed yet?
[06:56] <secret> Let's just assume I watch a video on Youtube ok? where is it downloaded to my computer?
[06:56] <shea_> because it's causing my system to freeze hard, strangely enough
[06:56] <secret> has to be somewhere there...
[06:56] <Clarrisa_2008> when I try to reload apache2,  Why do I get several lines that say: NameVirtualHost *:80 has no VirtualHosts
[06:56] <shea_> trying to find it in gnome docs
[06:56] <vegar__> ShackJack: try this: Places -> Network -> Find a host with content and try to play it back
[06:56] <leagris> bluefox83, all these docs belong to the developer seciont of the wiki
[06:56] <robdeman> anybody?
[06:56] <nub19> thanks radioaktivstorm ;)
[06:56] <bulmer> abuzuke: perhaps install it a part of network-manager tools
[06:57] <robdeman> I gave my home directort 0777 rights... now Gnome is al f'ed
[06:57] <radioaktivstorm> np nub19!
[06:57] <abuzuke_> bulmer, well how can i get that tool?
[06:57] <tessercat> nub - if there's no desktop icon, right click on a panel and "Add to Panel". There's a lot of stuff to fiddle with.
[06:57] <leagris> secret, video is streamed and not saved localy
[06:57] <nub19> i want a minimal startbar tessercat
[06:57] <secret> no, it's saved man, in windows I could go into my temp files and copy the file and keep it
[06:57] <bulmer> abuzuke: try  apt-get nnetwork-manger  perhaps..am not sure if thats the correct package name
[06:58] <secret> from youtube
[06:58] <Clarrisa_2008> when I try to reload apache2,  Why do I get several lines that say: NameVirtualHost *:80 has no VirtualHosts
[06:58] <leagris> secret, you may mangae to grab the url and I read about a tool for grabbing UT videos somewhere in multivers or universe
[06:58] <vegar__> ShackJack: Open with won't do the trick, because nautilus will tell vlc to open an smb://whatever file.. but vlc like many other applications don't implement the smb protocol
[06:58] <Funkah> Never done that on windows, Sec.
[06:58] <Taejo> bulmer: network-manager, not nnetwork-manger
[06:58] <secret> freeflashgrabber is stupid
[06:58] <abuzuke_> bulmer, well i don't have the internet connection
[06:58] <Funkah> Try flashgot.
[06:58] <Kjellviz> ShackJack: it seems to be nice enough indeed (but im a linux n00b, so gtk means nothing to me ^^ )
[06:58] <Funkah> That gets them fine.
[06:58] <bulmer> abuzuke: there per Taejo
[06:58] <Funkah> One Windows, at least..
[06:58] <bulmer> twas my fat fingers
[06:58] <emonkey> is on the normal live CD gparted installed?
[06:58] <shea_> secret: it'd be in ~/.mozilla/firefox/<yourprofile>/cache
[06:58] <secret> flashgot is gay
[06:58] <shea_> prolly
[06:58] <secret> thanks
[06:59] <shea_> Cache even
[06:59] <Rodel> Does anyone know of a place that has the source code for Gnome Games?
[06:59] <abuzuke_> bulmer , ?
[06:59] <shea_> but don't expect to be able to just see it like a regular file
[06:59] <shea_> :P
[06:59] <ShackJack> vegar__ - maybe open app then and pick the file?
[06:59] <radioaktivstorm> nub19, if you dont like that shortcut, can always change it under system>preferences>keyboard shortcuts under gnome
[06:59] <wolfeySI> hello guys.. i read a lot on internet about xorg and toshiba portage r100 with trident card... seems lots of us have problems with very small resolution when using battery power. switching to console and back to X helps, but isnt there a better way?
[06:59] <ShackJack> Kjellviz - you mean Exaile?
[06:59] <emonkey> ntfs resizing on installing with the live CD should be no problem?
[06:59] <shea_> secret: there's an extension called UnPlug which does okay.
[06:59] <Kjellviz> ShackJack: yap
[07:00] <vegar__> ShackJack: and how am I supposed to find the network share through the open file dialog?
[07:00] <ShackJack> Kjellviz - gtk is the "widgets" and other support stuff used to make GUI for GNOME...
[07:00] <leagris> secret, the tool to download yt videos is youtube-dl
[07:00] <secret> ~/.mozilla/firefox/<yourprofile>/cache what do I do with this? run in a terminal?
[07:00] <bulmer> abuzuke: try  apt-get network-manger  perhaps..am not sure if thats the correct package name
[07:00] <secret> <-- new to linux
[07:00] <faileas> I'm having problems compiling the driver for the ralink RT51 wifi card http://pastebin.ca/514201 thats what i get. i was following the wiki and was using the latest source from the OEM followed instructions from the wiki as well as the readme. anyone have any ideas?
[07:00] <leagris> secret, install youtube-dl
[07:00] <ejack> I am pretty sure that my wireless card is shot and is causing Ubuntu to crash when it tries to load the driver for it. How do I stop the driver for a specific device from loading? (Basically just disabling the device)
[07:01] <tesser> rodel - there's probably info on gnome.org. I'd say the best way to get the source would be to use whatever version control system gnome uses.
[07:01] <Frogzoo> vegar__: smb://hostname/directory    will do it
[07:01] <DanaG> oh hey, does XFCE have a way to browse network folders like gnomevfs does?
[07:01] <shea_> raiding an app's local cache is probably less desirable
[07:01] <bluefox83> it shouldn't be this hard to figure out how to create a .deb when compiling something from source D:
[07:01] <DanaG> I want to edit things over ssh.
[07:01] <Kjellviz> ShackJack: so u ment that Exaile aim to become the "official" mediaplayer for gnome ?
[07:01] <ShackJack> vegar__ - When I open totem.. .it just shows my "Places"... or you can type in network:/// manually...
[07:01] <secret> this is like, woah man.
[07:01] <faileas> hmm
[07:01] <faileas> wait
[07:01] <secret> linux is so intriguing, yet difficult
[07:01] <vegar__> You guys fail to understand that most applications DO NOT implement the SMB Protocol... if they get a smb:// type url.. they won't know what to do with it
[07:01] <faileas> where does ubuntu keep its kenel headers if installed?
[07:01] <ShackJack> Kjellviz - well not "official" - that's Rhythbox... but me no likey Rythmbox
[07:02] <DanaG> s/SMB/gnome-vfs
[07:02] <bluefox83> secret, it's not as difficult as it looks, just play with stuff and you'll figure it out :)
[07:02] <shea_> secret: well, er, it's a directory.  replace <yourprofile> with some profile you find in ~/.mozilla/firefox/
[07:02] <DanaG> or kioslaves.
[07:02] <vegar__> and Totems SMB implementation is crappy to say the least
[07:02] <shea_> and go there with nautilus or a term
[07:02] <ShackJack> Kjellviz - but it uses the GTK "widgets" vs. amarok using KDE libraires (which is why amarok takes longer to load generally)
[07:02] <tesser> secret some of the people who designed it experimented with hallucinogens :D
[07:02] <shea_> but firefox doesn't keep its cache as regular filenames
[07:02] <Frogzoo> vegar__: nautilus is quite happy with smb://
[07:02] <vegar__> Frogzoo: yes but every other app is not
[07:02] <tesser> maybe not linus
[07:03] <shea_> it renames the files into some hash of the data
[07:03] <DanaG> It's gnomevfs-aware.
[07:03] <shea_> it looks like
[07:03] <vegar__> try for instance opening a media file in vlc from nautilus... nautilus will give the application an smb:// type url and it won't know what to do
[07:03] <secret> :) ok but they need to fix it and make a simple "Internet Temporary Files Including the video you just watch secret" directory.
[07:03] <ShackJack> vegar__ - when I type network:/// in the location bar to open file I get my SMB network..
[07:03] <shea_> you can go there with a terminal, and then type 'file *'
[07:03] <nub19> what are new cool programs to apt-get these days?
[07:03] <DanaG> But is there a way to do that in xfce?
[07:03] <shea_> file is a program that tells you what is in a file
[07:03] <diablos_raven> can anyone help with wine
[07:03] <shea_> it'll identify everything in Cache/
[07:03] <shea_> secret: heh, that'd be a bit odd :)
[07:03] <Frogzoo> vegar__: other mounts should have loopbacks, but anyhow
[07:04] <wolfeySI> hello guys.. i read a lot on internet about xorg and toshiba portage r100 with trident card... seems lots of us have problems with very small resolution when using battery power. switching to console and back to X helps, but isnt there a better way?
[07:04] <Kjellviz> ShackJack: aha, ok thanks for explaining, and no i dint fancy rhytmbox either :P
[07:04] <secret> it would work though eh?
[07:04] <secret> then I would know where it is
[07:04] <shea_> it'd be a pretty user-specific thing, probably better to do it via extension
[07:04] <ShackJack> Kjellviz - I like amarok, but because it's based on KDE libraries (QT4) it's got some quirks when running under GNOME
[07:04] <Kjellviz> ShackJack: the only thing i miss from windows right now is video on skype, and a really good AND nice looking media player
[07:05] <vegar__> The problem is when you try to open files from a network share using Nautilus, Nautilus will give the application opening it an smb:// type url.. and that will in most cases not work since most applications do not implement smb
[07:05] <Kjellviz> ShackJack: like not starting at all ? :P  cos it doesent start at my comp ><
[07:05] <ShackJack> Kjellviz - Yeah WMP11 is actually pretty nice - there is SKype on linux but I dunno about video...
[07:05] <Kjellviz> from what ive heard it doesent support video
[07:05] <tesser> wolfeySI - so is that a video driver problem?
[07:05] <ShackJack> Kjellviz - no it starts maybe you'r missing some libraries from KDE
[07:05] <DanaG> s/SMB/gnomevfs/ again
[07:06] <Kjellviz> ShackJack: not only was WMP11 pretty nice, but so is winamp imo
[07:06] <astomper> How do I find the IP address of my networked printer?
[07:06] <wolfeySI> tesser: it seems os
[07:06] <wolfeySI> so
[07:06] <Kjellviz> ShackJack: it started once, then crashed, and hasent started since
[07:06] <wolfeySI> tesser: it's a known bug it semes
[07:06] <wolfeySI> seems
[07:06] <ShackJack> Kjellviz - I'd try sudo aptitude remove --purge amarok and then sudo aptitude install amarok and should install on dependecie for ya..
[07:06] <secret> In windows, you just type in %temp% in a run command, and there you have it-afolder full of videos, cookies and everything else you've viewed on the net. However, windows was annoying with its "Windows has detected a problem and needs to close the program"...
[07:06] <diablos_raven> does anyone know anything about wine
[07:07] <DanaG> The app has to support gnome-vfs, not SMB directly.
[07:07] <ShackJack> diablos_raven - just ask question ;)
[07:07] <tesser> wolfeySI - I would submit a bug report to whoever is responsible for your video driver. I've noticed some stuff with the nvidia ones I was thinking of submitting.
[07:07] <PriceChild> diablos_raven, try asking the question... or join #winehq
[07:07] <tich> i am trying to resize a partition, right now it is 15gb and i have 30 gb allotted but i can't make seem to make the 15gb partition bigger only smaller.  how would i do this?
[07:08] <ericamarias> oi
[07:08] <diablos_raven> i have installed a game with wine and it loads just fine but the graphics crap out on me
[07:08] <shea_> secret: yes, that's the temporary cache.  firefox uses its own temporary cache, and renames all the files as hashes, probably for faster lookup.
[07:08] <aa_> so I installed a window manager, can I add it to the sessions on choice for gdm?
[07:08] <Kjellviz> ShackJack: im trying a reinstall from synaptic pkm
[07:08] <leagris> diablos_raven, wine is good for health in low amount. It may ruine your liver if abused ;D
[07:08] <limecat> is there a simple way to unmount the /home partition?
[07:08] <ericamarias>  :) alguem do brasil?
[07:08] <PriceChild> diablos_raven, checked winehq's app database?
[07:08] <DanaG> My nvidia driver sometimes will go *BLINK*......................*BLINK*........................*BLINK*.................
[07:08] <diablos_raven> its in the apps database
[07:08] <shea_> secret: really, the fact that it's convenient to run %temp% and get all your recently viewed stuff is a side-effect of how windows caches stuff.  it's got a lot of problems.  a better solution is to install something that specifically gets that cache for you.
[07:08] <DanaG> it's quite horribly annoying -- and it makes it impossible to continue working.
[07:08] <ShackJack> Kjellviz - O.K. - I wouuld do "completely remove" then install...
[07:08] <tesser> wolfeySI usually submitting a bug just means giving someone an email address.
[07:09] <t3h0n3> Hail thy Ubuntu
[07:09] <secret> ok, good idea.
[07:09] <shea_> secret: but it would be nice sometimes.  there is probably a way to get the filenames back from firefox, but i dunno how :)
[07:09] <ShackJack> Kjellviz - and depending on how you "left it" amarok sometimes starts but only shows as tray icon...
[07:09] <morpheus74> I'm running Ubuntu 6.10, and installed the Kmymoney application.  When the application installed, a bunch of K libraries were installed too, but when I try to remove Kmymoney using synaptic and selecting "complete removal", only the Kmymoney application is selected for removal.  How can I remove all the packages that were installed with Kmymoney?
[07:09] <diablos_raven> i checked the database first before i installed and i can hear the game but it gives me a black screen
[07:09] <Kjellviz> ShackJack: ye seems i need to.... (btw know of a good "norton commander" type of file browser?)
[07:09] <leagris> kj0ttdeig, mc
[07:09] <ShackJack> Kjellviz - like midnight commander?
[07:09] <secret> Woah, I never knew females used linux -howcool!
[07:09] <DanaG> Cool app: EtherApe.
[07:09] <shea_> oh
[07:10] <secret> in a non-descriminating way
[07:10] <shea_> secret: hey found it.
[07:10] <limecat> Im trying to resize my /home partition up by 19GB, and need to unmount it.  Ive shut down GDM (sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop) and left the /home directory, but it wont let me umount it. Any ideas?
[07:10] <scar> ANYONE: how do i minimize my konversation, (or if not this client, which client should i use to do this), in order to minimize it to the taskbar ??? as w/gaim or w/e
[07:10] <shea_> secret: in firefox, go to about:cache in your address bar
[07:10] <secret> where?
[07:10] <Kjellviz> ShackJack: theres no icon in systray for amarok, yes like midnight, is it avail for linux ?
[07:10] <shea_> and click 'list cache entries'
[07:10] <Kjellviz> ShackJack: was using total commander on windows
[07:10] <leagris> secret, here I am if you count females using linux :)
[07:10] <secret> LOLOLOL
[07:11] <ShackJack>  Kjellviz - there's something like that for Command line, and I think a GTK equivilent...
[07:11] <secret> where's the catch in the address bar?
[07:11] <Deathshead> hi there everyone, i Cannot get ubuntu to see my windows shared folder, can anyone gimme a hand?
[07:11] <shea_> ?
[07:11] <shea_> type 'about:cache'
[07:11] <Q_Continuum> ZOMG - womens on Teh Internets? Can't happen! http://www.bnac.biz/images/im%20in%20ur%20base%20nerding%20it%20up.jpg
[07:11] <DanaG> Oh, how can I get gnome-settings-daemon not to use the ugly large transparent volume icon?
[07:11] <Kjellviz> ShackJack: found to in add/remove apps; gnome commander and krusader
[07:11] <ShackJack>  Kjellviz - sudo aptitude search commander
[07:12] <leagris> Q_Continuum, here I am http://www.noiraude.net/ :)
[07:12] <ShackJack> http://www.nongnu.org/gcmd/
[07:12] <scar> Deathshead: did u mount it?
[07:12] <secret> shea where, sorry?
[07:12] <Deathshead> Scar, i tried too, but it times out, been trying with nautilus too but it just dosnt see it.
[07:12] <morpheus74> I'm running Ubuntu 6.10, and installed the Kmymoney application.  When the application installed, a bunch of K libraries were installed too, but when I try to remove Kmymoney using synaptic and selecting "complete removal", only the Kmymoney application is selected for removal.  How can I remove all the packages that were installed with Kmymoney?
[07:12] <kj0ttdeig> i assume you meant Kjellviz, leagris?
[07:12] <Deathshead> been at it for 6 hours now.
[07:12] <shea_> like you're going to a webpage
[07:12] <p1ls> im lookin for a good fluxbox file manager
[07:12] <scar> Deathshead: what is the exact cmd u used
[07:12] <shea_> instead of 'http://blah.butt.com' type 'about:cache'
[07:12] <secret> yes
[07:12] <secret> and type catch?
[07:13] <scar> Deathshead: i had a huge prob last night, and found a way lol
[07:13] <secret> k
[07:13] <shea_> cache not catch
[07:13] <tesser> morph try "mark for complete removal" right click option in synaptec
[07:13] <Deathshead> scar what did ya do?
[07:13] <scar> Deathshead: what is the exact cmd u used
[07:13] <Deathshead> lemme find it,....
[07:13] <Kjellviz> ShackJack: hehe your stuck on using terminal for installing ? =P  i prefer gui =P
[07:14] <ShackJack> Kjellviz - sometimes GUI is more handy - for example, I don't have to open synaptic just to search for packages...
[07:14] <scar> Kjellviz: how do i minimize my irc client to taskbar
[07:14] <ShackJack> Kjellviz - plus easier to give instructions, rather than open window X, click tab Y, etc...
[07:14] <limecat> does ANYONE know how to mount the /home partition?
[07:14] <ShackJack> Kjellviz - do not fear the command line! ;)
[07:14] <Deathshead> sudo mount -t smbfs -o username=myusername //o.o.o.o.o sharename /mnt/files
[07:14] <Kjellviz> scar: no idea, guess that depends on what irc client you are using, im using opera
[07:15] <scar> Kjellviz: opera irc client? does it allow u to do that?
[07:15] <scar> im using konversation cuz it came w/it
[07:15] <leagris> scar, you may want xchat-gnome so you can have it hiden and iconed on the toolbar
[07:15] <ShackJack> scar - no minimize button on your IRXC winders ;)
[07:15] <dekc> hi can someone help me install my geforce?
[07:15] <Kjellviz> ShackJack: hehe im not agraid of the terminal, i just prefer guis, its easier on the eyes :P
[07:15] <radioaktivstorm> anyone know how to deal with a fussy linksys router? I have here an unsecured linksys router that allows access to the internet based on MAC address. i added mine to the list, and it works (occasionally) other times it does not assign me an ip. any pointers?
[07:15] <ShackJack> leagris: scar - you can hide GAIM buddy list, but not indiv chat windows to tray...
[07:15] <scar> Deathshead: just try loggin in as sudo
[07:16] <scar> ShackJack: yeah i know
[07:16] <scar> ShackJack: i cant figure it out
[07:16] <scar> ShackJack: on irc
[07:16] <Deathshead> how do i do that?
[07:16] <scar> Deathshead: type su and hit enter
[07:16] <akyra> halo
[07:16] <Deathshead> k
[07:16] <ShackJack> Kjellviz - here type this in sudo rm / -r ;)
[07:16] <scar> Deathshead: should ask for a pw if u havnt set one alredy
[07:16] <limecat> radioaktstorm: why are you using mac filtering?
[07:16] <DanaG> One odd thing about my Netgear router:
[07:16] <Kjellviz> scar: yes and no, you cannot minimize only the irc chat to systray, but the whole browser
[07:16] <ShackJack> Kjellviz - just kidding - dont do it!
[07:16] <scar> Deathshead: wait im sorry
[07:16] <bokey> ShackJack, no
[07:16] <DanaG> It gives me an ip address with the lease time set to 30 YEARS.
[07:16] <limecat> you ARE aware that that is an incredibly minor deterrent?
[07:16] <scar> Deathshead: type sudo passwd
[07:16] <secret> hahaha there it is lolz your so cool shea..
[07:16] <bokey> Kjellviz, no!
[07:17] <DanaG> Thus, if I don't release it, next time I come back I don't get an IP.
[07:17] <scar> Deathshead: then enter ur pw, and then type su and hit enter, then enter ur pw agai nto login as root
[07:17] <shea_> yay
[07:17] <ShackJack> bokey - he knows I'm kiddin :)
[07:17] <Deathshead> got it
[07:17] <dekc> how can i install my nvidia geforce?
[07:17] <tesser> radio - update your firmware? maybe that's fixed and you just need to update.
[07:17] <akyra> what torrent client should i use? (I tried bittorrent and azureus: i don't like them)
[07:17] <Deathshead> im in
[07:17] <Kjellviz> hehe chill im not removing root ><
[07:17] <DanaG> Well, if nobody's given it back, then somebody must have it.  I know, let's ask who has it!
[07:17] <ShackJack> brb
[07:17] <bokey> ShackJack, idiot! that will wipe his / partition
[07:17] <TehRealNexGen> dekc: you mean drivers?
[07:17] <scar> Deathshead: u have ntfs?
[07:17] <DanaG> (even though I have it set to give that IP only to ME, by MAC address.)
[07:17] <dekc> yes
[07:17] <Kjellviz> bokey: he said he was kidding ^^
[07:18] <Deathshead> yep, again,i just need to assess files on my xp shared folders..
[07:18] <secret> no your not, how do we save them?
[07:18] <scar> ok
[07:18] <scar> now
[07:18] <Kjellviz> but indeed a dangerous thing to jokw about :P
[07:18] <secret> =(
[07:18] <scar> type
[07:18] <zbrown> Is there any performance loss in a kernel thats SMP on a system thats not SMP?
[07:18] <secret> your cool anyhow
[07:18] <bokey> Kjellviz, yes. I did that a year ago and I got banned for it
[07:18] <scar> Deathshead: mount /your/drive/to/be/mounted /virtual/folder -t ntfs -o umask=0002
[07:18] <DanaG> 'rm /' is NOT something to joke about!
[07:18] <assasukasse> hi, is ip-forwarding active on ubuntu kernel?
[07:18] <Kjellviz> had mass fun during the 90s writing "yo guys hit alt-f4 for free porn" on irc ^
[07:19] <akyra> what torrent client should i use? (I tried bittorrent and azureus: i don't like them)
[07:19] <scar> Kjellviz: bahaha
[07:19] <astomper> How do I find the IP address of my networked printer?
[07:19] <Deathshead> k scar..
[07:19] <diablos_raven> any ideas
[07:19] <Kjellviz> bokey: ye can see why that can lead to punishment hehe
[07:19] <bokey> Kjellviz, yeah
[07:19] <Fuzz> hey don't suppose anyone can help me, i was upgrading to Feisty when we had a power cut and it no longer boots
[07:20] <scar> Fuzz: im having same prob kinda
[07:20] <limecat> astomper: you could try pinging your entire network, or doing a portscan for port 9100
[07:20] <bulmer> astomper: your printer is next to you?
[07:20] <scar> Fuzz: at leastr was
[07:20] <Frogzoo> Fuzz: clean install
[07:20] <Deathshead> so it would be like mount /mshome/computer name/mp3?
[07:20] <leagris> ShackJack, faster in typing sudo `mount | grep "on / " | awk '{ printf "dd if=/dev/zero of=%s\n",$1 };`
[07:20] <guncha> hello
[07:20] <scar> bulmer: ihave my printer, its wireless to my router and my comp is connected to my router directly... probs with printing?
[07:20] <silent_> would it help wine if I copied a whole system32 folder from a windows install?
[07:20] <morpheus74> How can I remove the k packages that were installed on my Ubuntu machine?
[07:21] <secret> akyra: Utorrent is the best = and demoniod for your torrent.   I installed kmymony and a bunch of k libraries were also installed.
[07:22] <Frogzoo> ipx: ifconfig ?
[07:22] <astomper> yes it does bulmer
[07:22] <limecat> from my understanding, using restricted driver manager > apt-get install nvidia-glx
[07:22] <r00tintheb0x> anyone know where to score a list of good repos?
[07:22] <silent_> do you use Kde?
[07:22] <nitro4ce> how do i change the wm? using gnome
[07:22] <ipx> Frogzoo: I want to monitor it
[07:22] <PriceChild> ipx, "stable" is a relative term
[07:22] <phatmonkey> how can i access the network shares i've mounted under places from the shell without mounting them again in a real location?
[07:22] <secret> Ok mybad, sorry just installed linux yesterday and keep forgetting about the differences between this and windows.
[07:22] <bulmer> scar: what do you want to do with your printer?
[07:22] <ipx> Frogzoo: like, go to bed and then come back and see how my internet access have been tonight
[07:22] <ipx> Frogzoo: it goes down once every 1-2hours for about 1 min
[07:22] <bulmer> astomper: then use the control panel to check the configs and find out what ip address it has
[07:22] <dekc> but if i install nvidia-glx X would not start
[07:22] <secret> so maybe can't use utorrent for linux, bittorrent is good.
[07:22] <ipx> Frogzoo: im getting frustrated since i get disconnected frmo every single dota i play
[07:22] <leagris> ipx, what kind of connexion do you use?
[07:22] <silent_> ipx, you want a frontend for the firewall?
[07:22] <morpheus74> silent_, no, I use gnome
[07:23] <ipx> leagris: adsl
[07:23] <tesser> ipx leave ping running on some server
[07:23] <astomper> bulmer, very easy, glad you guys are so cool.
[07:23] <tesser> dos it
[07:23] <darwin81> Is their a cooler looking frontend for Mplayer than gmplayer?
[07:23] <leagris> ipx, do you ppp over your linux box or ethernet behind a router box or bridge ?
[07:23] <DanaG> You can always Wine Torrent.
[07:23] <silent_> morpheus, then search for kde and remove it
[07:23] <ipx> leagris: router
[07:23] <TehRealNexGen> dekc: er i dont exaclty know what you want, do you want restricted drivers?
[07:23] <limecat> please, does ANYONE know how to unmount the /home directory?  Im in init 3, and out of the home directory, but i need to umount it, and it keeps giving me "device is busy"
[07:23] <ipx> leagris: a hardware router (linksys wrt54gl)
[07:23] <dekc> i want to enable 3d acceleration
[07:24] <silent_> dekc, what video card?
[07:24] <bulmer> limecat: on ubuntu you have to go to level one  2-5 is the same
[07:24] <dekc> nvidia geforce MX 4000
[07:24] <Frogzoo> ipx: change your lcp-echo-failure in /etc/ppp/peers/dsl-provider
[07:24] <silent_> ok
[07:24] <bobsumone> hi, im trying to access swat from the command line on Ubuntu Server (Feisty)
[07:24] <leagris> ipx, only the router box can monitor the wan link status. But you still be able to ping a stable host on the ned at intervals from your box
[07:24] <bulmer> astomper: okay good luck
[07:24] <limecat> bulmer:  init 3 runs graphical?
[07:24] <silent_> go into synaptic and install nvidia-glx
[07:24] <Kjellviz> man.... gotta love commanders <3
[07:24] <bobsumone> it does nothing as far as i can tell
[07:24] <limecat> thanks, tho, ill try that
[07:24] <dekc> but if i install nvidia-glx from synaptic X would not start
[07:24] <bulmer> limecat: 2-5 last time i checked on mine
[07:24] <limecat> brb
[07:24] <TehRealNexGen> silent_;already said that
[07:24] <AreYouForReal> I need help with setting up a linksys WUSB54GC wireless adapter on ubuntu. I am using a guide on the ubuntu site, but am stuck at a step... pm me if you can help, thanks!
[07:24] <kkerwin> Hi, anyone know of software for linux to make use of the fancy stylus feature on some convertible laptops?
[07:24] <limecat> bulmer: hmmmm, ok
[07:24] <silent_> dekc, did you edit xorg.conf to set Driver = nvidia?
[07:24] <astomper> bulmer: thx
[07:24] <Fuzz> Frogzoo: hard to keep track here i was upgrading from dapper
[07:24] <Frogzoo> limecat: default runlevel is 2 - which runs the gui - there is no text only runlevel
[07:25] <bulmer> limecat: 2-5 last time i checked on mine are the same*
[07:25] <kittyhawk> hi
[07:25] <silent_> dekc, make sure you install the restricted packages too
[07:25] <dekc> i tried with nvidia and nv but nothing
[07:25] <Deathshead> i just wish this stupid share folder would show up in nautilus.,.. jeez.
[07:25] <radioaktivstorm> limecat....my brothers computer gets kicked when i use when i use the WEP or WPA
[07:25] <silent_> dekc, try uninstalling nvidia-glx and installing nvidia-glx-new
[07:25] <tesser> ipx maybe ping the router too to make sure the problem isn't between you and the router.
[07:25] <Frogzoo> Fuzz: let me guess, your /home is on the same partition as the linux install?
[07:26] <leagris> ipx, if not too dumb, your router has a log feature you can brows. If more clever it has snmp probing but these are only on professionnal grade equiupments.
[07:26] <kittyhawk> my USB mouse is having trouble - every few seconds it seems to "get stuck".  running dmesg shows that it keeps disconnecting and reconnecting
[07:26] <Fuzz> Frogzoo: yeah
[07:26] <ipx> tesser: it isnt :) I've tried during a downtime
[07:26] <kittyhawk> anyone have any ideas as to what I could do about that?
[07:26] <panzor> kittyhawk, is your USB port working?
[07:26] <tesser> ipx cool
[07:26] <dekc> well i tried to download the .run file on nvidia site
[07:26] <silent_> dont use that
[07:26] <Eposig> hi
[07:26] <Frogzoo> Fuzz: you're gonna have to boot a live cd & move your /home somewhere else, like to a new partition
[07:26] <ipx> leagris: Im using a custom firmware on it so maybe it does. Gonna check it out! :)
[07:26] <bobsumone> hi, im trying to access swat from the command line on Ubuntu Server (Feisty)
[07:26] <Deathshead> whats an easy way to see if my ubuntu box even sees my xp box?
[07:26] <bobsumone> it does nothing as far as i can tell
[07:26] <tesser> ipx simplest thing to do is start pinging some server at a low rate
[07:26] <Frogzoo> Fuzz: then do a fresh install
[07:26] <h4wk0> Right guys, im reinstalling my ubuntu, so i can have a seperate /home partion
[07:26] <dekc> but the download doesn't start it just show me a text file
[07:26] <silent_> well.. you might have to use parts of that installer, but not the whole thing
[07:26] <panzor> kittyhawk: is your USB port working?
[07:27] <h4wk0> What do you recommend i partion it to
[07:27] <silent_> it conflicts with the package manager
[07:27] <Fuzz> Frogzoo: i can do that, was just wondering if tehre was anyway to rescue it?
[07:27] <ipx> tesser: okok :) That's my alternative!
[07:27] <AreYouForReal> having problems setting up a WUSB54GC wireless adapter on vers. 7.04, can anyone help? i am trying out linux for the 1sttime.
[07:27] <kittyhawk> panzor: I tried a different port; same problem
[07:27] <bluefox83> does anyone know an *easy* way to create a .deb file out of source?
[07:27] <Frogzoo> Fuzz: not really possible to help from this end - a failed upgrade might/might not be fixable, but not from here
[07:27] <panzor> kittyhawk: have you tried using another mouse and see if that works?
[07:27] <wolfeySI> hello what can i do if i have same bug as https://launchpad.net/ubunthu/+bug/76120
[07:27] <Fuzz> Frogzoo: ok thanks
[07:27] <silent_> dekc, do a sudo apt-get update || sudo apt-get upgrade
[07:28] <kittyhawk> no, I suppose that's a good idea.  I'll see if I have an old one.
[07:28] <panzor> kittyhawk: okay
[07:28] <bobsumone> is there even a ubuntu server user in here?
[07:28] <silent_> and make sure you have those restricted packages installed via synaptic
[07:28] <snook> !wireless | AreYouForReal

[07:29] <AreYouForReal> yea, i tried that ubotu, i am stuck at a step that doesnt seem to be working for me
[07:29] <bluefox83> !debmake
[07:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about debmake - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:29] <bluefox83> dangit
[07:29] <silent_> isnt ubotu a bot?
[07:29] <akyra> i need a torrent client :(
[07:29] <bluefox83> tes
[07:29] <dekc> i have installed nvidia binary X.org driver
[07:30] <dekc> then "sudo nvidia-glx-config enable"
[07:30] <snook> AreYouForReal, when the native driver doesn't work-out, use ndiswrapper if you don't need WPA, just use WEP
[07:30] <kittyhawk> panzor: I don't have one, but you think it's probably a hardware problem?  Maybe I'll just go buy a new mouse
[07:30] <bluefox83> akyra, qbittorrent is nice...
[07:30] <dekc> and X crashes
[07:30] <leagris> ipx, most DSL line flapping is due to extreme or non suitable environment. Over attenuated line due to length, noise due to oxydizations on some joints, failure, misplacement of POTS/DSL filters. You realy should check the DSL part. Your router may list tracs of Field Error Correction FEC, Header Error Correction HEC, Attenuation remote DSLAM and near end RotuerModem, Signal to noise SNR fahr en near...
[07:30] <bokey> Kjellviz, no idea
[07:30] <kkerwin> Anyone know of any software for linux that supports tablet pc operation?
[07:30] <akyra> thank bluefox83
[07:30] <panzor> kittyhawk: if your other USB stuff is working, that's what I'd bet on
[07:30] <Kjellviz> bokey: ok
[07:30] <silent_> dekc, go into synaptic and search nvidia. look for restricted modules
[07:30] <kittyhawk> thanks
[07:30] <AreYouForReal> snook, i am using 64-bit version, and linsys hasnt come out with 64-bit drivers, or so ive read, so i cant use ndiswrapper
[07:31] <dekc> i have only this 2 NVidia binary X.Org 'legacy' driver||||||||NVidia binary X.Org driver
[07:31] <snook> oh, that's over my head, sorry AreYouForReal
[07:31] <panzor> you're welcome
[07:31] <akyra> ehm, it's qt. I'm a gnome user. Something in gtk?
[07:31] <AreYouForReal> np
[07:31] <ipx> leagris: right. :) I just got a new el-adapter from my ISP for my modem to swap it with the old one (The old one wasn't any good and could cause it to crash or something) so i swapped it
[07:31] <Frogzoo> akyra: azureus works well
[07:31] <ipx> leagris: may have been since then
[07:31] <kittyhawk> now another question: I'm getting periodic hard-lockups, maybe once an hour or two
[07:31] <ipx> leagris: that's why i want to monitor yt
[07:31] <ipx> leagris: so i can test out both
[07:31] <silent_> dekc, are you running fiesty?
[07:31] <tesser> dekc: did you try installing the nvidia drivers using the Restricted Drivers Manager?
[07:31] <panzor> akyra: I've had problems with azureus, I use bittornado
[07:32] <kittyhawk> I have no idea how to troubleshoot them
[07:32] <leagris> ipx, the most usefull data your router can report are from the ATM line status
[07:32] <dekc> i installed with adept i have kubuntu 7.04
[07:32] <silent_> dekc, in synaptic > settomgs > repositories
[07:32] <silent_> enable restricted
[07:32] <ipx> leagris: These words make no sense to me anyways. I think I've found a way to log from the router now, hope it works..
[07:32] <forum2006> hey anyone have a good howto to get trac and lighttpd working?
[07:33] <bobsumone>  anyone in here using ubuntu server?
[07:33] <silent_> bob, I've used a debian server before
[07:33] <ipx> leagris: I found snmp now
[07:33] <leagris> ipx, DSL work ofer an ATM line. Synchronization loss, data cell errors increment counters your router can list about the ATM line.
[07:33] <Kjellviz> krusader is giving me an error; "cannot talk to klauncher", how can i remedy this ?
[07:34] <silent_> isntall gnome
[07:34] <leagris> ipx, these counters may be pollable by SNMP or directly at the router's line status
[07:34] <ShackJack> Kjellviz - that's one of those KDE quirks I mentioned ;)
[07:35] <dekc> silent_, was already enabled
[07:35] <DanaG> Oh hey, how do I put GDM in xnest?
[07:35] <Fuzz> if i put /home onto its own partiton and then have to reinstall will i have to reconfigure/redownload all the software i had?
[07:35] <ShackJack> Kjellviz - might check to see if it was installed...
[07:35] <silent_> dekc, in synaptic package manager, search for nvidia and look for linux-restricted-modules
[07:35] <graveson1> how can make sure to external disks(ntfs) always mount on the same filesystem when rebooting. i have created the fstab entries but no luck. It only works when i mount it manually
[07:36] <ShackJack> Fuzz - you won't have ot reconfig, but you will have to reinstall but your settings will all be there..
[07:36] <Kjellviz> afk kid woke up
[07:36] <Darkfox> hi all... how can i find a history of what was fixed for each kernel-image-2.6.20* release from 2.6.20-15 up?  i got a kernel panic and want to know if it's fixed in the latest release before filing an ubuntu bug (it's fixed in the vanilla kernel...)
[07:36] <leagris> ipx, if your router run a linux firmware you can have thes counters by cli/shell in cat /proc/net/atm/devices
[07:36] <bobsumone> silent_: I cant get swat to launch
[07:36] <wolfeySI> what can i do to bug developers some more at this bug https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/76120
[07:36] <dekc> found only that 2
[07:36] <ShackJack> Fuzz - course reinstalling is a piece of cake with repos...
[07:36] <dekc>  NVidia binary X.Org 'legacy' driver||||||||NVidia binary X.Org driver
[07:36] <tesser> Fuzz - yeah. Usually that kind of stuff goes in /usr/local. Maybe you can partition that too.
[07:36] <bobsumone>  its all command line, so most of the ubuntu documents online are useless to me
[07:36] <ipx> leagris: yup it's on linux
[07:36] <silent_> you want it to autostart on boot? That's pretty much the only way I know (the only way I've used)
[07:36] <bluefox83> is there something you can do during the make process to get it to spit out a .deb file?
[07:37] <bluefox83> like make make-deb or something?
[07:37] <leagris> ipx telnet/ssh our router and cat /proc/net/atm/devices
[07:37] <user5284> is it true that some computer manufacturer has begun to ship computers with ubuntu installed on them? which company is this?
[07:37] <graveson> how can make sure to external disks(ntfs) always mount on the same filesystem when rebooting. i have created the fstab entries but no luck. It only works when i mount it manually
[07:37] <bluefox83> user5284, yes, several, but most prominant id Dell
[07:37] <bluefox83> *is
[07:37] <Darkfox> bluefox83: you need the special debian control files to build a .deb.  if you have the source for a debian/ubuntu package and want to build the binary, you use dpkg-buildpackage -uc -us
[07:37] <tesser> anyone ever get ubuntu ipsec client to work with nortel contivity?
[07:38] <zbrown> user5284: http://www.system76.com and http://dell.com
[07:38] <user5284> bluefox83: is there some web site about computers for sale with ubuntu installed?
[07:38] <graveson> how can make sure to external disks(ntfs) always mount on the same filesystem when rebooting. i have created the fstab entries but no luck. It only works when i mount it manually
[07:38] <user5284> bluefox83, zbrown: thanks
[07:38] <zbrown> yup
[07:38] <admintroy> how can i change the permsiions of a read only ntfs drive?
[07:38] <Flannel> user5284: systemz76.com sells Ubuntu computers
[07:38] <admintroy> permissions ^
[07:38] <silent_> bobsumone, you want it to autostart on boot? That's pretty much the only way I know (the only way I've used)
[07:39] <silent_> dekc, have you updated?
[07:39] <ipx> leagris: Gah, there aint no atm-folder in /proc/net
[07:39] <bluefox83> Darkfox, ok, well basically all i am doing is createing a .deb for pidgin cus i can't seem to find one anywhere and my girlfriend is going to want it once i have it installed...
[07:39] <kittyhawk> hi.  I'm having periodic lockups - X stops, virtual terminals stop, if there's sound playing, it gets stuck on a single tone - everything seems to be down
[07:39] <lnx> Hello.  I just installed winamp alpha1 for linux.  I converted it from a rpm to a .deb
[07:39] <PriceChild> !alien | lnx
[07:39] <kittyhawk> anyone have any ideas on how to troubleshoot that?
[07:39] <ubotu> lnx: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[07:39] <lnx> it installed, but the winamp.exe file is not running
[07:39] <dekc> silent_, not yet
[07:39] <DanaG> Winamp for Linux is essentially abandoned.
[07:39] <silent_> kittyhawk, do you know what drivers you're using?
[07:39] <Flannel> lnx: it's winamp.exe?  sounds like that's a wine thing
[07:40] <silent_> xmms is winamp for linux :P
[07:40] <DanaG> In fact, it was abandoned at least 2 or 3 years ago.
[07:40] <Darkfox> bluefox83: looks like someone already built a deb... if you trust them... :)  http://www.ubuntugeek.com/howto-install-pidgin-200-on-ubuntu-feisty-with-plugin-pack.html#more-203
[07:40] <lnx> yeah it installed to /usr/local/Winamp/winamp.exe
[07:40] <bluefox83> i don't see why anyone would want winamp on linux when there are so many far better alternatives...
[07:40] <ipx> hm
[07:40] <ipx> winamp?
[07:40] <lnx> I converted it to a .deb with alien
[07:40] <DanaG> AVS and Milkdrop, that's why.
[07:40] <lnx> then just ran it
[07:40] <leagris> ipx, it may report via SNMP though. You will have to find where are the counters on the SNMP tree
[07:40] <dekc> sudo apt-get update ||| apt-get upgrade right?
[07:40] <admintroy> how can i change the permisions of a read only ntfs drive?
[07:40] <lnx> actually winamp for linux alpha1 just came out
[07:40] <bulltitan> yesterday i took a look into my sources.list but it looks like a lot is missing can anyone take a look at it and tell me what you think
[07:40] <silent_> lnx, winamp is slow and sluggish, I had NO problem installing foobar2000 with wine. Foobar is superior to winamp.
[07:40] <hylje> link
[07:40] <kittyhawk> silent_: I'm using nvidia drivers for video, and also ralink drivers for my wireless card
[07:40] <bobsumone>  silent_: actually, im wondering if swat is what I should use to edit the .conf or what
[07:41] <ipx> leagris: okok :)
[07:41] <silent_> kitty, nvidia-glx?
[07:41] <bulltitan> here's the paste http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22716/
[07:41] <Flannel> bulltitan: pastebin it
[07:41] <kittyhawk> silent_: yes
[07:41] <lnx> but does it have a good media library able to browse shoutcast radio and tv?
[07:41] <ShackJack> admintroy - I think you have to install ntfs-3g to make it read/write - only reads by default...
[07:41] <Arex> All, When I try to use Logmein on my Linux, it always shows this http://img513.imageshack.us/img513/9669/screenshotpk2.png
[07:41] <grumbel> I think I remember once seeing a programm that can detect unused packages based on actual use (based on access time or so), does anybody know the name?
[07:41] <ipx> leagris: I get some settings to fill in; Location, Contact, Name, RO Community and RW Community. What should I put there?
[07:41] <silent_> does the whole system lock up or just X? can you take a look at the logs and see why it crashes?
[07:41] <Flannel> bulltitan: nope, that's everything
[07:41] <admintroy> ShackJack: thanks for the info.. is it a dowloadable package?
[07:41] <bulltitan> oki thanks
[07:41] <silent_> lnx, use vlc for that
[07:42] <ShackJack> admintroy - it's in repos - sudo aptitude install ntfs-3g
[07:42] <admintroy> thanks
[07:42] <silent_> bobsumone, yes swat edits the smb.conf file
[07:42] <silent_> makes it really easy
[07:42] <ShackJack> admintroy - then you get NTFS config tool under menu to enable read/write
[07:42] <kittyhawk> silent_: I should mention I'm still booting with the kernel from edgy because I couldn't get the wireless drivers to build against the 2.6.20 kernel
[07:42] <lnx> vlc for shoutcast and shoutcast tv?  I know there are media players that can play .nsv and other kinds of streams, but I want the ability to browse winamp's online media libraries
[07:42] <ShackJack> admintroy (it appears after installing, that is)
[07:42] <dekc>  Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[07:42] <bobsumone>  silent_: well im wondering how do I access it from the command line?
[07:42] <dekc> triyng to update
[07:43] <kittyhawk> silent_: the whole system - virtual terminals stop responding if I happen to be using them at the time
[07:43] <bobsumone>  sudo swat -s smb.conf
[07:43] <bobsumone> does nothing
[07:43] <leagris> ipx, community serv a en Access control on the SNMP probing/acting Read/write. You should have some names here and put the same names on the tool you'd like to use on the ubuntu box to read/write the SNMP components
[07:43] <kittyhawk> silent_: what logs should I check?
[07:43] <Arex> All, When I try to use Logmein on my Linux, it always shows this http://img513.imageshack.us/img513/9669/screenshotpk2.png - Can someone tell me how I can get logmein to work
[07:43] <DanaG> Recently?  Where's winamp "recent">?
[07:43] <silent_> I'm not sure, but I know you can 'sudo nano /etc/inetd.conf'
[07:43] <ShackJack> dekc you must have both synaptic and add/remove program open - gotta close 'em
[07:43] <silent_> and take the "#" comments out from swats entry
[07:43] <silent_> then reboot
[07:43] <dekc> lol i forgot it open
[07:43] <admintroy> ShackJack: could not find ntfs-3g package :(
[07:43] <bobsumone> silent_: was last to me?
[07:43] <bobsumone> or the other dude?
[07:44] <kittyhawk> silent_: I'm also confused :)
[07:44] <dekc> ok updated
[07:44] <Arex> All, When I try to use Logmein on my Linux, it always shows this http://img513.imageshack.us/img513/9669/screenshotpk2.png - Can someone tell me how I can get logmein to work
[07:44] <silent_> sorry kittyhawk, jumping between 3 differnet people :P
[07:44] <ShackJack> admintroy - hmmm should be in default repos - you have universe and multiverse enabled?
[07:44] <admintroy> yup -both
[07:44] <Flannel> Arex: what does logmein do?
[07:44] <silent_> kittyhawk, have you updated/upgraded all packages?
[07:45] <akyra> Flannel: maybe you're referring to hamachi
[07:45] <dekc> but nothing to do i have the same packages
[07:45] <admintroy> i'll do an update
[07:45] <silent_> bobsumone, "sudo nano /etc/inetd.conf"
[07:45] <kittyhawk> silent_: everything but the bunch that came in today, although as I said I still boot with the 2.6.17 kernel
[07:45] <ShackJack> admintroy - what does sudo aptitude search ntfs give you?
[07:45] <Flannel> Arex: that's an activeX control I believe.  So you won't be able to do that.  Luckily, Linux provides many other options ot login to remote PCs
[07:45] <silent_> bobsumone, remove the # commenting before swat
[07:45] <Flannel> ShackJack, admintroy, no need to sudo for search
[07:45] <ynnk> Somebody has tested cacti?
[07:46] <ShackJack> Flannel - erp you're right - force of habit :)
[07:46] <silent_> kittyhawk, try upgrading the kernel?
[07:46] <kTz-> i have a lil question about wine and counter strike 1.6 ; is ti possible to have 100 fps always ? or i must wait new release of wine ?
[07:46] <kittyhawk> silent_: I can't get my wireless drivers working on the new kernel
[07:46] <silent_> bobusmone, then reboot, since that's the only way I know of
[07:46] <dekc> silent_, do u have the good link to download the .run file on nvidia site?
[07:46] <DanaG> lnx: where did you find "just came out"?
[07:46] <silent_> kittyhawk, I see. have you tried defaulting to vesa video and seeing if the crashes stop?
[07:46] <dekc> cuz  with synaptic just don't work
[07:46] <DanaG> For Winamp.
[07:47] <lnx> I typed winamp for linux in google
[07:47] <lnx> it had the top three listings
[07:47] <admintroy> ShackJack: libntfs-dev libntfs-gnomevfs libntfs8 ntfsdoc ntfsprogs and ntfstools
[07:47] <bbrazil> kTz-: your eyes work at ~20FPS, why would you need that?
[07:47] <lnx> i've typed it in before but to no end
[07:47] <silent_> lnx, vlc + foobar2000/wine
[07:47] <lnx> so this is recent
[07:47] <bobsumone>  oh ok silent, i get what your saying
[07:47] <bobsumone> let me try
[07:47] <ShackJack> admintroy - weird - what version of ubuntu are you running?
[07:47] <lnx> let me checkout foobar2000
[07:47] <admintroy> Dapper drake
[07:47] <jubuntu> hello
[07:47] <kittyhawk> silent_: I'm sorry I just realized that I am in fact using the open source "nv" driver
[07:47] <lnx> my question is does it have a decent media library able to browse winamp's libraries
[07:47] <silent_> its a windows native program, you have to enable wine hardware acceleration to 'emulate'
[07:47] <ZeZu> eyes work a bit faster than 20 fps, 23fps is the abs. min. for video
[07:48] <kTz-> (bbrazil) get the game fluid, for pro gaming, if nlow fps the game is slow
[07:48] <lnx> winamp's shoutcast tv and radio
[07:48] <ShackJack> admintroy - hmmm that might be in - not in repos for Dapper...
[07:48] <silent_> kittyhawk, try enabling nvidia
[07:48] <kittyhawk> silent_: okay.
[07:48] <lnx> that's all I want back really
[07:48] <bobsumone>  silent_: there is no # in .inetd.conf
[07:48] <rollerskatejamms> IHow do I rip DVDs with k3b. I select rip dvd, then the source, and then nothing happens.
[07:48] <silent_> kittyhawk, 'sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf (i think)
[07:48] <admintroy> ShackJack - can I add other repo's to get it?
[07:48] <ShackJack> admintroy - that's the proggie at any rate - maybe search to see if it works for dapper and install manually (though I should think it would be in the repos if it did)... Or get on the Feisty express!
[07:48] <silent_> bobsumone, can you put your inetd on pastebin.ca please
[07:49] <kittyhawk> silent_: thanks, bbs

[07:49] <silent_> bob, can you ssh in?
[07:49] <admintroy> ShackJack - I woudl ob\ve to, but I have spent 3 days setting this machine up with everything I needed, but now all I need to do is transfer data from my ntfs dirves :(
[07:49] <silent_> or boot the other computer
[07:50] <ShackJack> admintroy - see above...
[07:50] <silent_> if you're on windows you can use putty
[07:50] <bobsumone>  silent_: nope, its the only nix machine
[07:50] <silent_> or if you're on linux ssh <ip>
[07:50] <M3G4crux> hi2all
[07:50] <bobsumone>  silent_: putty?
[07:50] <silent_> puTTy
[07:50] <silent_> do you have ssh on the other machine?
[07:50] <lnx> by the way here is the link to winamp for linux
[07:50] <lnx> http://librenix.com/?inode=1377
[07:50] <bobsumone> well what should I be looking for?
[07:50] <Rodel> could anyone here help me install garnome?
[07:50] <bobsumone>  i don't think i configed the ssh

[07:51] <Wulfie_road> hey folks - I just setup feisty on my dell laptop and it can't seem to find my wireless network
[07:51] <silent_> try acessing it, using its ip
[07:51] <Wulfie_road> any thoughts?
[07:51] <admintroy> ShackJack - cheers for the info .. I'm on it now :)
[07:51] <ShackJack> admintroy - NP
[07:52] <bobsumone> nothin
[07:52] <ShackJack> admintroy - though if you can install it, Feisty's really bitchin' ;)
[07:52] <bobsumone> no ping response either
[07:52] <silent_> no ping?
[07:52] <bobsumone> no ping
[07:52] <silent_> what did you install on the server?
[07:52] <bobsumone>  but im probably fuckin something up along the way
[07:52] <ShackJack> Wulfie_road - what type of encryption does your network use?
[07:52] <bobsumone> i put lamp on
[07:52] <Wulfie_road> ShackJack: wpa-personal
[07:52] <kittyhawk> silent_: do you know if there's a way to make nvidia-glx work on all installed kernels?
[07:53] <bobsumone> i started working on the openLAPD
[07:53] <silent_> kittyhawk, no, is it not working?
[07:53] <ShackJack> Wulfie_road - and wireless card definately working and has drivers installed?
[07:53] <kittyhawk> silent_: no, it's not
[07:53] <Foon> oi folks
[07:53] <silent_> have you tried installing nvidia-glx-new? and make sure you have restricted modules
[07:53] <Wulfie_road> ShackJack: well the drivers are installed and if I do ifconfig it shows the card and its mac address - first time trying to connect to a network
[07:53] <silent_> what video card are you using?
[07:54] <kittyhawk> silent_: I didn't know about nvidia-glx-new
[07:54] <jkelly_> hi guys, i need help getting a microphone to work in kubuntu feisty, i'm using an intel mac mini, sound card is intel high definition audio
[07:54] <Wulfie_road> ShackJack: the wireless network list is completely empty - there should be at least 5-8
[07:54] <Foon> a friend of mine just told me that his fingerprint usb drive's hidden partition (with the fingerprint software on it) has been infected by a virus
[07:54] <Foon> but the partition is read-only
[07:54] <Foon> how would he go about making it writable?
[07:54] <ShackJack> Wulfie_road - network card on?
[07:54] <bluefox83> hey that .deb someone linked me to of pidgin works really well...
[07:54] <kittyhawk> silent_: it's a pretty old one, a TNT2 or something
[07:54] <bbrazil> Foon: what filesystem is it?
[07:54] <sparr> Is there any way to make bash (or some other shell) expand wildcards in the order the files are present on the drive?
[07:54] <Foon> FAT
[07:55] <silent_> kittyhawk, hmm, that shouldn't have any compatibility issues
[07:55] <tux_wears_a_tux> is there a way to install KDE without removing GNOME ?
[07:55] <Foon> not FAT32, just FAT.. so FAT16
[07:55] <Flannel> tux_wears_a_tux: sure.  Just install kubuntu-desktop
[07:55] <silent_> bobsumone u still here somewhere?
[07:55] <Foon> er, well, FAT
[07:55] <Foon> anyway, yeah
[07:55] <silent_> Foon man mount
[07:55] <bbrazil> Foon: hmm, that should be writable without any issues. Try sudo remount -o remount,rw /mount/point
[07:55] <ShackJack> tux_wears_a_tux - yep just install kubuntu-desktop then select at login screen under sessions
[07:55] <kittyhawk> silent_: no, I think it's just that the package installs the driver for only a single kernel, and since I'm not using the latest installed kernel, it doesn't work
[07:55] <Wulfie_road> ShackJack: I think so - I don't think it can be turned off via hardware - and I have enable wireless checked
[07:55] <bbrazil> Foon: bah, sudo mount -o remount,rw /mount/point
[07:55] <kittyhawk> silent_: but I don't know exactly what's going on.
[07:56] <tux_wears_a_tux> shackjack: thanx
[07:56] <silent_> kittyhawk, can you live without wireless... do you have restricted repository enabled? There may be drivers available
[07:56] <Kjellviz> aite
[07:56] <Kjellviz> what is klauncher ?
[07:56] <Foon> I'll relay that to him and see what happens, but I think he said he has already tried mounting it under ubuntu
[07:56] <tux_wears_a_tux> shackjack: how would i uninstall it
[07:56] <ShackJack> Wulfie_road - in terminal what do you get for  iwlist eth1 scan?
[07:56] <Arex> Flannel, are you there?
[07:56] <Flannel> Arex: I am
[07:56] <kittyhawk> silent_: I can't - that's my only net access.  There's instructions for getting the drivers working on the ubuntu website, but they didn't work for me
[07:57] <ShackJack> tux_wears_a_tux - usual way - or sudo aptitude remove --purge kubuntu-desktop
[07:57] <Arex> About this, <Flannel> Arex: that's an activeX control I believe.  So you won't be able to do that.  Luckily, Linux provides many other options ot login to remote PCs
[07:57] <Wulfie_road> no scan results
[07:57] <Flannel> Arex: that's what I said.
[07:57] <Arex> I can connect to a PC running windows how
[07:57] <Broccoly> is moving my root partition / to another physical partition a difficult task?
[07:57] <ShackJack> tux_wears_a_tux - or just d/l a kubuntu live cd if you just want to snoop around...
[07:57] <kittyhawk> silent_: I've just been living with the crashes, but it's getting old
[07:57] <silent_> kittyhawk, Where were these installation instructions on the site?
[07:57] <tux_wears_a_tux> shackjack: ok
[07:57] <silent_> kittyhawk, can you link me?
[07:58] <kittyhawk> silent_: let me see if I can find them
[07:58] <Kjellviz> ShackJack: what is klauncher and can i install it on gnome ?
[07:58] <shawn34> i have a dvd burner with lightscribe, does linux support that
[07:58] <kittyhawk> silent_: btw thanks for being so helpful
[07:58] <ohzie> Is there an easy way to tell what my agp aperture is?
[07:58] <ohzie> Whatever the hell that is?
[07:58] <ShackJack>  Kjellviz - should be in repos with description
[07:59] <cypher1> does anyone know of a local ubuntu mirror at new jersey ?
[07:59] <Flannel> Arex: there are a few methods, VNC, RDP.  RDP requires no additional software on windows.
[07:59] <jubuntu> ohzie AGP aperture is how much memory your card has
[07:59] <silent_> kittyhawk, no prob
[08:00] <ohzie> jubuntu: Then why is there an option for how much memory my card has that's seperate from the aperture setting?
[08:00] <Kjellviz> ShackJack: maybe in the non gui repos :P  cant find in add/remove progz
[08:00] <roadboy> some may tell me the permissions for /dev/sd* ?
[08:00] <Arex> Flannel, could you give me a wiki or something to set one of them up
[08:00] <akyra> i made a fresh install of feisty on a sata but the new entry doesn't appear on grub. any ideas?
[08:00] <silent_> roadboy, /dev/sdx is just a device
[08:00] <jubuntu> ohzie is this in bios?
[08:01] <silent_> you have to mount it to access it
[08:01] <ohzie> jubuntu: No, in cedega.
[08:01] <silent_> man mount
[08:01] <Wulfie_road> ShackJack: btw its a intel pro 2915 which uses the ipw2200 driver which is loaded
[08:01] <cypher1> roadboy, do you want to recreate files under /dev ?
[08:01] <roadboy> silent_, i know. i need the permissions for disk drives. some app did changed permissions 777, i need to change back.
[08:01] <jubuntu> ohzie don't know never used cedaga
[08:01] <ShackJack> Kjellviz - should be the same though I guess it's not in there... at least not as as indiv package...
[08:01] <silent_> man chmod
[08:01] <cypher1> roadboy, check man makedev
[08:01] <Flannel> Arex: Unfortunately no.  there doesn't seem to be anything in the wiki about it.  You might search the forums, if not there, google.
[08:02] <Zelian> hey guys, could someone help me?
[08:02] <ShackJack> Wulfie_road - did the iwlist give you anything?
[08:02] <silent_> !ask
[08:02] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[08:02] <Wulfie_road> ShackJack: nothing
[08:02] <Zelian> :P
[08:02] <Wulfie_road> ShackJack: well - No scan results
[08:02] <Zelian> its a grub issue
[08:02] <Zelian> error 25
[08:02] <silent_> fun stuff
[08:02] <Kjellviz> ShackJack: nah couldnt find it, guess im gonna try another commander instead
[08:02] <roadboy> silent_, you only need to do ls -la /dev/sd* and tell me the permissions for the sdX drives
[08:02] <Joe_CoT> question: if i had a problem with usb dying after a period of time (works fine, later usb shuts off), what project would a file a bug report in in launchpad?
[08:02] <cypher1> roadboy, you can use makedev to recreate factory device files
[08:02] <ShackJack> Kjellviz - yeah if you're using gnome try to use gnome apps... KDE apps can be finicky in gnome...
[08:02] <silent_> oh, you want default permissions?
[08:03] <silent_> one sec roadboy
[08:03] <jubuntu> ohzie sorry
[08:03] <furenku> hello! does anyone know of a reliable howto for compiling FST on Ubuntu Studio (im having trouble with gtk+-2.0 and other library dependencies)
[08:03] <Tangrim> dite
[08:03] <Zelian> everytime i turn off my comp error 25 pops
[08:03] <roadboy> cypher1, if i use makedev, i'll lose something.
[08:03] <Foon> bbrazil: I haven't gotten a reply back from him yet, but the problem is that the partition is read-only from what I understand, he can't even reformat it under windows
[08:03] <Tangrim> comment je peux tuer x ?
[08:03] <KromiX> hey whats a good program on ubuntu to encode videos from divx/xvid to .wmv, but not one at a time something that I can put in like 20 videos and have it queue it and do them all while im at work ???
[08:03] <ShackJack> Wulfie_road - is roaming mode enabled?
[08:03] <Foon> bbrazil: but it's gotta be writable somehow because a virus was able to sneak on, ... so how?
[08:03] <Wulfie_road> it is
[08:03] <cypher1> roadboy, i think you can recreate just sda files.. check the manpage
[08:03] <Kjellviz> ShackJack: ye but the gnome commander dint appeal to me
[08:03] <Wulfie_road> ShackJack: it is - and I can't seem to disable it
[08:04] <leagris> Tangrim, CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE (keyboard) or killall X or killall -9 X
[08:04] <ShackJack> Wulfie_road - hmmm  Ionly know basic wireless troubleshooting - hopefully someone else here cna help..
[08:04] <cypher1> roadboy, i believe thats the best and safest way to recreate it
[08:04] <roadboy> cypher1, i don't need to recreate, i only need changing the permissions back to default
[08:05] <silent_> roadboy rw- rw- ---

[08:05] <KromiX> Can Any1 recommend a good video converting software (namely divx/xvid to .wmv) that does bulk converting so I can leave multiple files queued and converting while I work etc ?
[08:05] <silent_> Zelian, every time your computer turns OFF?
[08:06] <ShackJack> niriven - yeah kxmame using any arcade rom made before 1985! :P

[08:06] <shawn34> is there anything out there for lightscribe to work in ubuntu
[08:06] <shawn34> ?
[08:07] <Zelian> silent_: if i reboot, i dont get the message, only when i turn it off and then on
[08:07] <kittyhawk> silent_: well, I can't find the page to which I was referring (I have a local copy), but while looking I came across some bug reports along the lines of "lockups when running with rt61 drivers" so perhaps that's the answer
[08:07] <silent_> so when its booting or when its shutting down?
[08:07] <kittyhawk> silent_: I'm going to do some more reading and see if this has been solved
[08:07] <silent_> kittyhawk, alright
[08:07] <kittyhawk> silent_: thanks again for your help
[08:07] <niriven> jubuntu: cli?
[08:07] <silent_> kittyhawk, try the ubuntu forums too, they tend to have a lot of solutions
[08:07] <silent_> np
[08:08] <jimmygoon> ~ics

[08:09] <Kjellviz> ShackJack: any idea what the <super> key is ?
[08:09] <jubuntu> shawn34 i think lightscribe does work
[08:09] <ShackJack> Kjellviz - the windows key
