[08:49] <ubotu> You can browse and search for Ubuntu packages using !Synaptic, !Adept, apt-cache, the "apt:/" URL in KDE, or online at http://packages.ubuntu.com  -  Ubuntu has about 18000 packages available, so please *search* for an official package before installing things in awkward ways!

[08:52] <seadoo18> dude
[08:52] <seadoo18> ?
[08:52] <javaJake> XxTwitchxX: No... you should goto the Eclipse Newsgroups for Eclipse support
[08:52] <seadoo18> do you know what i could use to diagnose the problem at least?
[08:52] <marshall> can somebody please help get his ThinkPad integrated mic working?
[08:53] <seadoo18> yeah listen to marshall
[08:53] <javaJake> cappe: Be sure that you have java installed.
[08:53] <seadoo18> and me
[08:53] <marshall> can somebody please help get seadoo18s ThinkPad integrated mic working?
[08:53] <XxTwitchxX> javaJake, no, im not develeping, lol im playing runescape but it freezes after 10 minutes :P
[08:53] <porkpie> OK ..this is going to be a silly question how do I bring up an interface under ubuntu ...
[08:53] <porkpie> I normally use FreeBSD
[08:53] <seadoo18> lol
[08:53] <marshall> porkpie, are you in the terminal?
[08:53] <seadoo18> please, answer me JavaJake
[08:53] <javaJake> XxTwitchxX: Oh, I see
[08:53] <javaJake> seadoo18: Hey... sorry...
[08:53] <LjL> porkpie: try "ifup ethwhatever"
[08:53] <marshall> lol
[08:54] <javaJake> seadoo18: Put my name at the beginning of your IM to catch me
[08:54] <seadoo18> ok
[08:54] <seadoo18> so what about the thinkpad mic
[08:54] <ww2> killkoy, ok... it seems that without the "beryl-xgl" command first, nothing works.
[08:54] <marshall> porkpie, if you have gnome, type /etc/init.d/gdm start
[08:54] <POVaddct> porkpie: the config is in /etc/network/interfaces    (man 5 interfaces)
[08:54] <seadoo18> marshall: he wants a network interface
[08:54] <javaJake> seadoo18: Look in your Device Manager, copy the model name, or id, and search around. Give me the name of the mic, and I might find something
[08:54] <seadoo18> alright
[08:54] <gjerde> hello
[08:55] <marshall> seadoo18, to do that just type the first few letters of his name and press tab, that will complete his name
[08:55] <POVaddct> porkpie: you can also directly use ifconfig to set up an interface with any ip adress (not the one in the config)
[08:55] <marshall> seadoo18, oh
[08:55] <SeanTater> How do I benchmark to see how fast I can encode an average avi into mpeg?
[08:55] <seadoo18> lol
[08:55] <porkpie> POVaddct:thats what I want to do ..
[08:55] <marshall> porkpie, yeah ifconfig is the way to go
[08:56] <porkpie> POVaddct:do you have the syntax
[08:56] <aoupi> SeanTater: encode one and time it?
[08:56] <marshall> porkpie, use iwconfig with wireless interfaces
[08:56] <bart_> is there a stable version of ie7 for linux yet?
[08:56] <Agrajag> what
[08:56] <LjL> bart_: no, and that's very unlikely to happen.
[08:56] <POVaddct> porkpie: ifconfig eth0 <IP_ADDRESS> netmask <IP_ADDRESS>   (eth0 is the first ethernet interface)
[08:56] <XxTwitchxX> javaJake, so do you know any fixes?
[08:56] <SeanTater> aoupi: I'll see if I can find anything to de-encode
[08:57] <ExilE> bart_: ie must die firefox is way better
[08:57] <cappe> bart_: try wine it :) but why in the world would you wanna surf with such a untrustable webbrowser??
[08:57] <seadoo18> ExilE - yes you are right
[08:57] <POVaddct> porkpie: if you want dhcp instead, you would do: dhclient3 eth0
[08:57] <seadoo18> ie is pure shit
[08:57] <LjL> !language
[08:57] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[08:57] <seadoo18> lol
[08:57] <seadoo18> is that the bot?
[08:57] <ExilE> even on windows i run firefox and banish ie
[08:57] <marshall> bart_, do you mean under wine? i hear da quote from ms saying ie 7 would never run on anything other than windows
[08:57] <LjL> seadoo18: yes
[08:57] <seadoo18> haha
[08:57] <seadoo18> awesome
[08:57] <SeanTater> aoupi: I have one, but it's not exactly average (it's a slideshow), I tried a dvd, but ffmpeg won't decode it
[08:58] <marshall> !ping
[08:58] <ubotu> ping: connection timeout
[08:58] <POVaddct> hehe
[08:58] <raintheory> ?
[08:58] <marshall> aw, that used to be ping pong
[08:58] <bart_> marshall, I don't think it would be possible without wine
[08:58] <raintheory> !pong
[08:58] <ubotu> Your Alive and Kickin .......*grumbles and go's back to his dive-into-python manual*
[08:58] <ExilE> is there much problem dual booting windows xp and ubuntu?
[08:58] <SeanTater> marshall: I think seveas had to have the last laugh
[08:58] <XxTwitchxX> Whenever I use a webapplet with java, it always freezes like, 10 minutes into it, does anyone know how to fix?
[08:58] <seadoo18> !ping
[08:58] <ubotu> ping: connection timeout
[08:58] <Constrictor> ExilE no there isn't at all

[08:59] <seadoo18> !msg the bot
[08:59] <Constrictor> been doing it since i started using ubuntu
[08:59] <seadoo18> ubotu!
[08:59] <LjL> seadoo18, please do what that message says
[08:59] <XxTwitchxX> javaJake, ok, thanks anyways :D
[08:59] <seadoo18> ok
[08:59] <ExilE> i've been meaning to try linux for years but didn't want to loose whole system if something went wrong
[08:59] <seadoo18> sorry
[08:59] <cappe> ExilE: works fine... maybe it's a timeout time with GRUB that makes it start a little slowly. I thought it wouldn't start at all the first time
[09:00] <marshall> seadoo18, lol
[09:00] <seadoo18> JavaJake: i can't find anything about a mic
[09:00] <seadoo18> or my soundcard for that matter
[09:00] <marshall> "abusing the bots will only result in angry ops"
[09:00] <seadoo18> but i know my soundcard works
[09:00] <SeanTater> aoupi: thanks
[09:00] <bart_> cappe, some sites ask for ie
[09:00] <jmitchj> javajake: How can i uninstall an invalid driver!
[09:00] <Constrictor> ExilE: I suggest you try the live CD first. If everything works during installation you will have the opportunity to setup a dual boot
[09:00] <porkpie> POVaddct:how do I get ubuntu to install apt from the web .....I can't get it to see the cdrom
[09:00] <ExilE> where do you find live-cd is it the normal download?
[09:01] <Constrictor> cappe: I still use GRUB
[09:01] <POVaddct> porkpie: do you already have net access on ubuntu?
[09:01] <Constrictor> go to www.ubuntu.com and click on download
[09:01] <marshall> ExilE, what live cd are you looking for?
[09:01] <SV452> this is a rather tough one - let me explain - we have four offices in the country each having their own Domain Controler (DC) and Exchange Server (MX) and then all is connected to our Main DC and MX sitting smack bang between them all making it possible for all branches to communicate between each other, now our IP's works like this: 192.15.16.xxx, 192.15.32.xxx, 192.15.80.xxx, 192.15.112.xxx, 192.15.144.xxx. and then our domain is example
[09:01] <cappe> bart_: yes but if your browser identifies as IE it could work anyhow.. (i think)
[09:01] <javaJake> ;)
[09:01] <Constrictor> you can do it normally, through FTP or even torrent
[09:01] <porkpie> POVaddct:yes
[09:01] <seadoo18> lol
[09:01] <ExilE> i tried knoppix but had to run in failsafe mode to work
[09:01] <POVaddct> porkpie: can you ping www.ubuntulinux.org ?
[09:02] <seadoo18> javaJake, i can't find either my soundcard or my mic
[09:02] <seadoo18> in the device manager
[09:02] <jazzygm> I just did an apt-cache search emacs, and there are emacs21 packages, but no xemacs
[09:02] <ExilE> marshall: ubunti for amd64
[09:02] <tRSS> how do i edit my fstab to be able to mount remote nfs partition at boot?
[09:02] <ExilE> sorry ubuntu
[09:02] <marshall> cappe, bart_, unless the page actually *needs* ie
[09:02] <porkpie> POVaddct:Hmm! no I can't ping it ...???
[09:02] <bart_> cappe, you think that if it works that way Googlebot/2.1+ will work as well..
[09:02] <javaJake> seadoo18: hmmm
[09:02] <porkpie> POVaddct:Hmm! no I can't ping it   strange
[09:02] <javaJake> seadoo18: that's a bad sign
[09:02] <Constrictor> ExilE i'm sure you will find your requirements at ubuntu.com
[09:02] <tRSS> !nfs
[09:02] <ubotu> nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[09:03] <bart_> cappe, marshall, it's just javascript that checks your browser
[09:03] <javaJake> jmitchj: ndiswrapper -r <driver>
[09:03] <marshall> ExilE, http://ftp.ussg.iu.edu/linux/ubuntu-releases/6.06/ubuntu-6.06.1-desktop-amd64.iso
[09:03] <seadoo18> javaJake: well obviously
[09:03] <POVaddct> porkpie: can you ping <IP_ADDRESS> ?
[09:03] <javaJake> seadoo18: Well... gotta split... can I PM you my e-mail?
[09:03] <seadoo18> uhh, sure?
[09:03] <javaJake> seadoo18: Sorry about the loose thread. :(
[09:03] <seadoo18> no prob
[09:03] <seadoo18> it's not a pressing issue at the moment
[09:03] <jazzygm> I just did "apt-cache search emacs", and there are emacs21 packages, but no xemacs and when I tried downloading the xemacs packages the installer gave errors about dependant files
[09:03] <marshall> bart_,cappe: true say. i dont know how to get firefox to spoof ie. maybe theres an extension
[09:03] <porkpie> POVaddct:nope  ....looks like I need the gateway add into the config
[09:03] <POVaddct> porkpie: i bet you have no default route and not configured dns resolving
[09:04] <seadoo18> bart_: you can make Firefox spoof IE
[09:04] <marshall> seadoo18, your sound device must show in your device manager
[09:04] <POVaddct> porkpie: route add default gw <your_gateway>
[09:04] <POVaddct> porkpie: echo "nameserver your_nameserver_ip" > /etc/resolv.conf
[09:04] <jmitchj> javajake: -r is not an option
[09:04] <seadoo18> marshall: the only one at-style sound
[09:04] <seadoo18> sorry
[09:04] <porkpie> POVaddct:name servers are in
[09:04] <marshall> seadoo18, if you were able to listen to the song i sent you, then ubuntu must recognize your sound controller
[09:05] <seadoo18> AT-Style Speaker Sound marshall
[09:05] <marshall> seadoo18, hmm
[09:05] <POVaddct> porkpie: okay
[09:05] <POVaddct> porkpie: did you set the default route now?
[09:05] <marshall> seadoo18, can you give me a screen of that entry in your device manager?
[09:05] <porkpie> POVaddct:I am now getting destination unreachable
[09:05] <bart_> seadoo18, how?
[09:05] <marshall> seadoo18, make the device manager fullscreen in the shot too
[09:05] <seadoo18> marshall, no i'm mentally handicapped in such a way that i can't
[09:06] <POVaddct> porkpie: your gateway ip must be in the same net that you configured for eth0
[09:06] <marshall> seadoo18, oh... im sorry
[09:06] <bart_> cappe, marshall, seadoo18, well I found out that opera does stay open when I go to that site
[09:06] <seadoo18> bart_: hold on a second
[09:07] <porkpie> POVaddct:it is   ... server ip <IP_ADDRESS> netmask <IP_ADDRESS> gw <IP_ADDRESS>
[09:07] <marshall> bart_, cappe, seadoo18: awesome
[09:07] <POVaddct> porkpie: so the ip address of the ubuntu machine is <IP_ADDRESS> ?
[09:07] <ExilE> marshall: thanks i found it in a mirror from ubuntu site
[09:07] <porkpie> POVaddct:I have 2 interfaces in this server .....I can ping the patched interface ...but can't ping the gateway
[09:08] <bart_> marshall, cappe, seadoo18, Only the menu isn't working as it should (no text on the buttons)
[09:08] <seadoo18> bart_: hmm
[09:08] <bart_> marshall, cappe, seadoo18, But that is flash
[09:08] <porkpie> POVaddct:yes server ip <IP_ADDRESS>
[09:08] <seadoo18> bart_: yes..
[09:08] <cappe> bart_: try wine:ing with gecko-support to your wine then start IE...
[09:08] <l0st1> wheres the xinitrc file located?
[09:08] <POVaddct> porkpie: what do you call server in this context?
[09:08] <porkpie> it's up now
[09:09] <ExilE> this is a stupid question considering i'm in a linux irc chat room but what runs games better linux or windows
[09:09] <Seveas> ExilE, dependson the game
[09:09] <marshall> ExilE, didnt i send you what you were looking for?
[09:09] <jazzygm> I've edited the sources.list but I still don't seem to be able to install from the universe???
[09:09] <Atomiku> So I cant use the CDROM to install ubuntu and im also having alot of trouble with the net install. Is it possible to download an image of an already installed ubuntu and copy it to a blank hard drive
[09:09] <bart_> cappe, sorry if it sounds noobish but what's gecko-support?
[09:09] <ExilE> marshall: yea i found it
[09:09] <apokryphos> jazzygm: have you followed the instructions from the FAQ?
[09:09] <marshall> bart_, get flash 9
[09:09] <POVaddct> porkpie: a server is not a machine. a server is a program that provides some service.
[09:10] <porkpie> POVaddct:OK .I can ping the gateway ..now but not the 82 addess
[09:10] <jazzygm> apokraphyos: errr.... what faq?
[09:10] <ExilE> saveas: games in general
[09:10] <marshall> bart_, we have flash 7 in the repos, it doesnt do everything that flash 8 does and some flash doesnt run properly
[09:10] <angelo> usplash on edgy doesn't work..
[09:10] <cappe> bart_: it is a plugin-kinda-program supporting wine to be able to surf with IE..
[09:10] <apokryphos> jazzygm: in the /topic
[09:10] <marshall> bart_, send me the link, i have flash 9 and ill see it it works for me
[09:10] <seadoo18> ExilE: there is no question that MS Windows has a much more vast variety of games and gaming utilities (such as DirectX)
[09:10] <pettern> Im  having some problems with locales in Ubuntu. Here is the error i get when trying to reconfigure. http://www.pastebin.no/403  Any way to reinstall all the related packages and remove the config files so i start from scratch?
[09:10] <tuxtoti> Guys..I have a weird problem : I wanted net thro my USB (Huawei quidway WA1003A..yup its a weird modem given by my ISP bsnl in India)..
[09:10] <tuxtoti> So booted ubuntu from a cd(live)..and to my wonder ubuntu detected my usb as eth1.and i got my net just like that..but i didnt have the DNS ip so i rebooted to windoze to check it..and came back to ubuntu(again booting it live from a cd)..to my surprise this time it didnt detect my USB as eth1..what could be the reason?.now im connected to the net thro'  a ethernet card(eth0) which wasnt connected that time...
[09:11] <POVaddct> porkpie: 82 address? you didnt tell that before? can you please give me complete info? the ip adresses of both interfaces in the ubuntu machine?
[09:11] <seadoo18> ExilE: but that doesn't mean it can play them better than Linux, it's just that there's more developers for windows games
[09:11] <marshall> bart_: http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplayer9/
[09:11] <bart_> marshall, I don't know how you got flash 9 (as adobe.com says i should dl 7), it's : caz.nl
[09:11] <seadoo18> bart_: go to the ubuntu site
[09:11] <POVaddct> porkpie: ah you mean the ip i gave you to ping
[09:11] <l0st1> lol
[09:11] <l0st1> oops
[09:11] <ExilE> the thing is i tend to play a lot of games online and most people run linux is this because they hate windows or is it because linux is better
[09:11] <porkpie> POVaddct:I can ping the www.ubuntulinux.org address now
[09:11] <marshall> bart_, flash 9 isnt officially out
[09:12] <POVaddct> porkpie: good
[09:12] <marshall> bart_: but i got my claws on some beta
[09:12] <teasum> Hello all, I have a problem with programs crashing at the save dialog.  Firefox, Gedit, and OpenOffice all crash if I try to save a file in a location other than default.
[09:12] <POVaddct> porkpie: now do: apt-get update
[09:12] <seadoo18> ExilE: you mean they are playing games on linux or running a game server?
[09:12] <marshall> FLASH 9 ERRBODY!!! http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplayer9/
[09:12] <marshall> EH GUYS?
[09:12] <marshall> FLASH 9!! http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplayer9/

[09:12] <seadoo18> marshall: that link is broken
[09:12] <porkpie> POVaddct:yep ....it's getting it
[09:12] <seadoo18> marshall: just kidding it's fine
[09:12] <porkpie> done
[09:12] <BelialMkII> marshall, Ive noticed it still doesnt play nice with some sites requir\ing nine, The digg labs for instance
[09:12] <Admiral_Chicago> marshall: yea that happened yesterday...
[09:13] <bart_> seadoo18, I just used it
[09:13] <teasum> If i run firefox from a terminal, I get a "segmentation fault" error when it closes.
[09:13] <POVaddct> porkpie: after that: apt-get install openssh-server
[09:13] <cappe> bart_: wine will automatically install geko when you run wine path_to_ie
[09:13] <teasum> can anybody help me?
[09:13] <marshall> Admiral_Chicago, yeah i know. youre welcome anyway
[09:13] <Atomiku> So I cant use the CDROM to install ubuntu and im also having alot of trouble with the net install. Is it possible to download an image of an already installed ubuntu and copy it to a blank hard drive
[09:13] <seadoo18> ExilE: what games, specifically
[09:13] <porkpie> POVaddct:thanks for the help ....I am ok now
[09:13] <POVaddct> porkpie: good :)
[09:14] <marshall> BelialMkII, yeah i know, its kind of lame with flash video. the animation is slower, but the audio stays in sync so im good
[09:14] <ExilE> tends to be wolfenstein:enemy territory
[09:14] <ExilE> and games bases on quake 3
[09:14] <POVaddct> porkpie: to make the interface config permanent, read "man 5 interfaces" and edit /etc/network/interfaces accordingly
[09:14] <porkpie> POVaddct:One more question is the amd64 server build  multi cpu enabled ?
[09:15] <macsim> ahah
[09:15] <POVaddct> porkpie: sorry, don't know about amd64
[09:15] <marshall> bart_, hmm, the flash on this page doesnt run well for me either

[09:15] <cappe> ExilE: linux has a great way of handling the memory, hopefully the programmers of the game will benefit that and the game will run smoothly in linux even better than in a Windows environment
[09:15] <porkpie> POVaddct:OK ...I will ask on the server  channel.   I have 2 dual cores in this server ...so it should rock
[09:15] <spiekey> ...Changethe BOOT flag to NFS in /etc/mkinitramfs/initramfs.conf on the client and make a net bootable initrd.img with mkinitramfs... --> i have not got a client yet.
[09:16] <spiekey> i would like to make a diskless client.
[09:16] <cbx33> spiekey, check out ltsp

[09:16] <cbx33> spiekey, ltsp is easy
[09:16] <bart_> marshall, In firefox (and swiftfox) it just closes, does your windows stay open?
[09:17] <cbx33> have you looked at edubuntu?
[09:17] <cbx33> maybe worth giving it a look.....
[09:17] <apokryphos> Ono: /msg ubotu defrag
[09:17] <cbx33> just to try it out
[09:17] <cbx33> see if it does what you want
[09:17] <marshall> bart_, yeah it stays open

[09:18] <b|ackgraz> i wonder if anyone can help me
[09:18] <alejandro> people, do you who could be the best linux svn client on "market" ??? ...
[09:18] <shawn417> how can i restore my synaptic repositories?
[09:18] <seadoo18> tannerld, it comes with programs man
[09:19] <pettern> is this the best place to ask Ubuntu problems or is there a forum or something where there is more people and bigger chance to get your problem solved?
[09:19] <b|ackgraz> GRUB keeps locking up on me
[09:19] <marshall> seadoo18, /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins and /usr/lib/firefox/plugins
[09:19] <tannerld> seadoo18: ah
[09:19] <seadoo18> tannerld, used to configure them
[09:19] <seadoo18> marshall: i se

[09:19] <seadoo18> tannerld: np
[09:19] <bart_> I installed firefox manually once, in /opt/firefox, but when I updated, is it still in .opt/firefox, or back in the old dir?
[09:19] <b|ackgraz> and it boots fine when i tell the ubuntu CD to boot from the HD
[09:19] <ExilE> NOOB ALERT!!!! Can you install ubuntu on a sata drive
[09:19] <eddie_> anyone got a good fully working "sources.list" on pastebin with mutiverse and universe repos
[09:19] <marshall> seadoo18, replace the libflash-plugin.so (or something like that) in both of those folders
[09:19] <niko7865> yes
[09:19] <jazzygm> right, now I finally have xemacs installing :) is there a way to change the screen position in the os - im missing about 30 pixels off to the left of the screen?
[09:19] <alejandro> people, do you who could be the best linux svn client on "market" ??? ...
[09:19] <marshall> seadoo18, i had a bit of trouble making it stick for some reason
[09:19] <eddie_> !repositories
[09:19] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and !easysource

[09:20] <angelo> usplash on edgy doesn't work..
[09:20] <iwkse> hi all, can anybody helps me with 9800pro? I can't get the direct rendering... i should use linux or proprietary drivers? Anybody has such vcard?
[09:20] <webben> angelo: #ubuntu+1 for edgy problems
[09:21] <kitche7> alejandro: umm svn unless your talking about a gui one
[09:21] <marshall> angelo, #ubuntu+1
[09:21] <sladen> iwkse: 9800pre whay?  Who made it?
[09:21] <seadoo18> marshall, i don't have permission to write to that folder
[09:21] <teasum> I have a serious problem with multiple programs crashing when trying to save a file.  Any help?
[09:21] <seadoo18> marshall, gotta do it as root?
[09:21] <iwkse> sladen: 9800pro from ati
[09:21] <bart_> seadoo18, yes, or just chmod it as root
[09:21] <sladen> iwkse: ideally the Open Source drivers, but if you need acceleration, you'll be forced to use the binary ones
[09:21] <angelo> marshall, webben, edgy is at release candidate.. it is suggested to report here problems now
[09:21] <angelo> i've read this on the announcement
[09:21] <ricanelite> Hello, I have a HP All-in-one Printer 1410 series. How can I get it working on Ubuntu? Because I went to System Settings. But when I try to print out a Test Page it says it went through but my printer does not do anything
[09:21] <webben> angelo: really? my apologies then :)
[09:22] <iwkse> sladen: yes, i want acceleration cause i'm curious about net gaming in linux:)
[09:22] <marshall> seadoo18, yeah, press alt+f2 and type 'gksu nautilus /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/' if you want to do it in nautilus
[09:22] <angelo> webben, np :)
[09:22] <marshall> angelo, no
[09:22] <ww2> iwkse, from my understading proprietary drivers have better performance
[09:23] <angelo> http://www.ubuntu.com/news/EdgyReleaseCandidate
[09:23] <ww2> iwkse, but still, they are way worse than the Windows drivers
[09:23] <sladen> ww2: there is currently no 3D accerlation support in the ATI and Nvidia open source drivers
[09:23] <angelo> marshall, it says "If you have a question, or if you think you may have found a bug but aren't sure, first try asking on the #ubuntu IRC channel on FreeNode, on the Ubuntu Users mailing list, or on the Ubuntu forums"
[09:23] <seadoo18> marshall, screw that shit
[09:23] <seadoo18> marshall, i used cp from bash
[09:23] <sladen> ww2: actually the Nvidia binary and Window binary driver are identical inside
[09:24] <iwkse> sladen: i guess cause ati sucks and don't give hardware specific to open source community
[09:24] <marshall> seadoo18, if you want to do it from the command line just do 'sudo cp <path to the untarred libflash-plugin.so> /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libflash-plugin.so'
[09:24] <ww2> sladen, no 3d acelleration support? What you mean?
[09:24] <jazzygm> is there a way to change the screen position - im missing about 30 pixels off to the left of the screen?
[09:24] <alejandro> does anyone know about some easy-dealing-with svn client for debian/ubuntu ???
[09:24] <marshall> seadoo18, lol yeah
[09:24] <marshall> angelo, oh
[09:24] <ww2> sladen, I`m talking about ATI
[09:24] <seadoo18> marshall, :D
[09:24] <sladen> iwkse: both ATI and Nvidia don't give out specs :(
[09:24] <pettern> alejandro: svn-client is great
[09:24] <seadoo18> marshall, so that's it?
[09:24] <az_phox> I need java help
[09:24] <seadoo18> marshall, it's installed now?
[09:24] <marshall> iwkse, lol thats exactly right
[09:24] <marshall> iwkse, ATI sucks
[09:25] <esmour> hi everyone
[09:25] <bart_> seadoo18, Did you backup your old one first?  I`ve played 3D games with my 9600 XT in Ubuntu... including Enemy Territory
[09:25] <seadoo18> marshall, ati are good
[09:25] <seadoo18> lol
[09:25] <blackgraz> anyone know why GRUB is locking up on me?
[09:25] <az_phox> can anyone help me install latest java install
[09:25] <esmour> anyone recieve buffer i.o errors?
[09:25] <seadoo18> bart_, why would you need to do that?
[09:25] <marshall> seadoo18, yeah, restart firefox and go to a flash page, then right click on the animation and see if it says 'About Flash 9' int he dropdown
[09:25] <iwkse> marshall: yes, it does. And much more when their proprietary drivers aren't as good as windows one...hard SUCK
[09:25] <angelo> usplash on edgy doesn't work..
[09:26] <alejandro> does anyone know about some easy-dealing-with svn client for debian/ubuntu ???
[09:26] <sharperguy> !ubuntu+1
[09:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ubuntu+1 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:26] <bart_> seadoo18, If it is too unstable, or if something goes wrong, it's just a beta release
[09:26] <esmour> when i try booting the live cd... it hang up at mounting root  with a buffer i/o error
[09:26] <angelo> sharperguy, read the rc announcement
[09:26] <sladen> ww2: the open-source driver does not have 3D hardware acceleration.  The binary driver does.  Which were you using?
[09:26] <shawn417> is there a command to restore default repositories?
[09:26] <iwkse> i just hope in something different than ATI or NVIDIA....maybe something new
[09:26] <sladen> esmour: can you file a bug including what type of hardware you have
[09:26] <cappe_> bart_: I have a great (illegal) solution to you, go to TPB and download "VMWare workstation for linux" then you download "XP Borg editon 5.0 FINAL" from the same place then you setup a virtual machine with that ISO file then you are good to go surfing with IE ;)
[09:26] <iwkse> sladen: i'm using proprietary driver but i don't get acceleration
[09:26] <seadoo18> marshall, yeah it's working
[09:27] <xipietotec> Anyone who can help: I've got a solid state flash card hooked up to a USB flash card reader and linux is not auto-detecting it like it does my usb HD
[09:27] <marshall> seadoo18, you should talk, you forgot how hard it was to get your ati drivers working? it would be that hard if ati gave a shit
[09:27] <esmour> slade: sure
[09:27] <ww2> sladen, I was talking about the proprietary driver.
[09:27] <esmour> sladen: sure
[09:27] <seadoo18> marshall, this drawplay game kicks anus
[09:27] <sleon> hi
[09:27] <Atomiku> So I cant use the CDROM to install ubuntu and im also having alot of trouble with the net install. Is it possible to download an image of an already installed ubuntu and copy it to a blank hard drive
[09:27] <sladen> cappe_: there's a script around for installing IE and wine
[09:27] <sleon> is there anywere any sort of list of all wireless lan cards which are supported by ubuntu linux?
[09:27] <ww2> sladen, I was answering to iwkse`s question about what driver to use with his 9800 card
[09:27] <iwkse> ww2: i'm using proprietary drivers
[09:27] <xipietotec> Anyone have any idea why I would be experiencing this problem?
[09:28] <sladen> sleon: most of them out of the box.  It's not the card that matters, but the chipset and there are only 4-5.
[09:28] <marshall> seadoo18, lol the one with the mummy and the spikes?
[09:28] <PSUSI> fetchmail has an option to keep mail on the server, but is there a way to get it to keep it there only for a few days, then delete older messages after that?
[09:28] <iwkse> but i get mesa drivers and not ati...
[09:28] <sleon> sladen: where can i get the list of chipsets then?
[09:28] <ww2> iwkse, well, thats pretty much the right choice then... why did you ask? As far as I know you`ll only need the open source drivers if you want to install AIGLX.
[09:28] <iwkse> how to get ati drivers t work?
[09:28] <esmour> anyone ever get that error though?
[09:28] <sioux> is there a ubuntu updates that fix the nvidia bug?
[09:28] <seadoo18> marshall, hell yeah
[09:28] <ww2> iwkse, type flgrxinfo in a terminal and paste the output here.
[09:28] <seadoo18> marshall, i love it
[09:28] <kmaynard> !ati
[09:28] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:29] <sladen> sleon: eg. Orinoco, ipw2100/2200/3945, atmel, broadcom  cover 99.97% of the market and they all work out of the box
[09:29] <treitter> I think the new xinit package broke my network connection in Dapper
[09:29] <seadoo18> everyone!!!
[09:29] <xipietotec> Anyone who can help: I've got a solid state flash card hooked up to a USB flash card reader and Ubuntu is not auto-detecting it like it does my usb HD
[09:29] <ww2> iwkse, sorry... "fglrxinfo"
[09:29] <marshall> sioux, yeah there are brand spanking new drivers for nvidia out for edgy
[09:29] <seadoo18> try this, it's the coolest thing you will ever play
[09:29] <sioux> ubot I prefer sudo apt-get upgrade
[09:29] <seadoo18> http://www.addictinggames.com/drawplay.html
[09:29] <sleon> sladen: and intel/centrino drivers? do they also work with wpa?
[09:29] <tannerld> whats the package name for gnu autoconf?
[09:29] <sladen> xipietotec: what does  'lsusb' say after you've plugged it in, can you see the card reader listed?
[09:29] <treitter> er - let me try downgrading to confirm, though
[09:29] <treitter> back later
[09:29] <marshall> seadoo18, lol ya its fun
[09:29] <sleon> sladen: there are lots of netgear cards for example which are not working, right?
[09:29] <iwkse> ww2: yes i made it already...i was saying it uses mesa...
[09:29] <iwkse> display: :0.0  screen: 0
[09:29] <iwkse> OpenGL vendor string: Mesa project: www.mesa3d.org
[09:29] <iwkse> OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
[09:29] <iwkse> OpenGL version string: 1.2 (1.5 Mesa 6.4.1)
[09:29] <sioux> marshal do you if could be possible upgrade datter to edgy?
[09:29] <sladen> sleon: the ipw ones should work with WPA, yes
[09:30] <sleon> sladen: thx
[09:30] <sameer`> is there a way to boot livecd in textmode ??
[09:30] <highvoltage> sameer`: unfortunately not
[09:30] <sladen> sleon: the netgear cards are probably something else inside, can you find out what the actual chipset is?
[09:30] <xipietotec> sladen: only my normal USB HD is showing up as a USB device
[09:30] <highvoltage> sameer`: although there's an alternate install cd available from the ubuntu website that gives you the text installer
[09:30] <ww2> iwkse, do sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf, find your videocard`s section and replace "mesa" with "fglrx". Save and restart X with ctrl + alt + backspace.
[09:30] <kitche7> sladen: it's atheros chipset
[09:30] <sleon> sladen: it is had
[09:30] <XCalibr42> Why should I choose Ubuntu over Mandriva?
[09:30] <xipietotec> although the card reader itself is recieving power
[09:31] <sleon> sladen: and the problem is: same models have different chipsets :(
[09:31] <sladen> xipietotec: sounds like you've got a bigger issue if it doesn't appear in the list of devices.  Compare  'lsusb' before and after you'veplugged it in
[09:31] <sameer`> highvoltage: i actually want to use the live cd in text mode
[09:31] <sleon> sladen: and manufacturers do not tell which chipsets they are using
[09:31] <tannerld> whats the package name for gnu autoconf?
[09:31] <kmaynard> XCalibr42, why should you choose mandriva over ubuntu?
[09:31] <exhale> XCalibr42: try both
[09:31] <highvoltage> sameer`: you can get a terminal by pressing ctrl+alt+f1
[09:31] <bina> Hi, when doing update-manager -c -d to upgrade to edgy I get an error saying that something went wrong calculating the dependencies.  it looks like its libgl1-mesa-dri, which I think is a third party package (installed for compiz).  is there a way to get apt to install the ubuntu version?
[09:31] <sleon> sladen: for example rev 1.0 of a  card has completely different chipset then rev2.0
[09:31] <highvoltage> sameer`: but you can't get a text mode installer
[09:31] <sladen> sleon: indeed.  If you find a card that doesn't work, that's a bug---and one that needs fixing, if you have such an example of card, please file a bug
[09:31] <niko7865> XCalibr42: I chose Ubuntu because it recognised my wireless card out of the box and came on one CD instead of 5+
[09:31] <sameer`> highvoltage: i m not install, i using it from cd, :D
[09:32] <bluefox83> !nvidia
[09:32] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:32] <iwkse> ww2: i don't have mesa in video driver but ati...i should change with fglrx?
[09:32] <sladen> sleon: even better, there's a orinoco copy out there, except this one requires firmware loading first *and* the PCI IDs are the same
[09:32] <webben> XCalibr42, Because it actually has an accessibility project (for instance).
[09:32] <sleon> sladen: maybe there is a sort of a page about linux hardware with such list?
[09:32] <highvoltage> sameer`: so you just want a text terminal?
[09:32] <jorge__> hello there...can anyone help me?
[09:32] <ww2> iwkse, yeah
[09:32] <xipietotec> damn.....no difference, I've got no way to get these files off the camera-card
[09:32] <sameer`> yea kinda
[09:32] <webben> XCalibr42, It's difficult to suggest reasons without knowing you.
[09:32] <ww2> iwkse, sorry, my mistake
[09:32] <jorge__> im earing a ppiiiiittttttttttttttttttttttttttttt

[09:41] <jorge__> ...hardware issue?
[09:41] <PSUSI> since upgrading to dapper, when I try to start up emacs it bombs with "unknown color: black"... anyone have any idea what's wrong or how to figure it out?
[09:42] <aoupi> jorge__: this is just a wild guess, but make sure your puter and everythin is grounded, non-grounded computers can behave funny
[09:42] <Milkyy> cappe_: and now restart? or is that module loaded now?
[09:42] <Ninn> cant find the faq. got a link for me, apokryphos?
[09:42] <apokryphos> Ninn: sure, check the channel topic
[09:42] <cappe_> should be loaded .. try playing music now
[09:42] <Ninn> ah! ;-)
[09:42] <patrick_king> i get this when trying to install nvidia drivers Unable to find the kernel source tree for the currently running kernel.
[09:43] <jorge__> lol...i konw aoupi....but actually im using a common-traditional earphones, plugged back of my PC...so no ground posibilities

[09:43] <SB|nblracer> Hello
[09:43] <grout_work> i installed phpmyadmin on my lamp install but I get this error, anyone know why? http://grout.ws:85/phpmyadmin
[09:44] <SB|nblracer> Need some help with my Fstab
[09:44] <aoupi> jorge__: I ment your entire computer, that it is in a grounded socket[don't know if this is the right word, but where you plug the power cord in the wall]
[09:44] <jorge__> i could try in windows(after installing)....if i get the same->hardware stuff...but if i got  aclean-not messy sound?
[09:44] <jorge__> ok, ill check that
[09:44] <cpk2> jorge__: grounded computer means a 3 pronged socket
[09:44] <SB|nblracer> What are "defualt" options mean?, What should i set it to for a ext3 part for all users
[09:44] <jorge__> ill check power supply
[09:44] <jorge__> and all that stuff
[09:44] <Milkyy> I'll try restarting, then...
[09:44] <sonics> hi
[09:44] <jeanjean> grout_work, what kind of error ?
[09:44] <jorge__> ill turn off before...maybe is easier/safer :PPPPPPPP
[09:44] <jorge__> see u later guys
[09:44] <cappe_> Milkyy: you shouldn't have to...
[09:45] <Milkyy> well, sound isn't working.
[09:45] <grout_work> Internal Server Error
[09:46] <sonics> Is there anyone who can tell me why windows users see my  -s -s and -s someway wicked.
[09:46] <johso> aoupi: thanks for the link, but I didn't quite catch how atp_preferences works.
[09:46] <grout_work> jeanjean: any idea?
[09:46] <kitche7> sonics: it's because how windows see the fonts it writes them as they are suppose to be
[09:46] <jeanjean> grout_work, nope, I installed it once and it works perfect
[09:47] <EmxBA> can someone for god sake send me /var/lib/dpkg/lock to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>?
[09:47] <sonics> kitche7: is there anything I can do about it?
[09:47] <SB|nblracer> What are "defualt" options mean in FSTAB?, What should i set it to for a ext3 part for all users?
[09:47] <grout_work> jeanjean can I pm you?
[09:47] <SB|nblracer> What dose auto do in Ftab?
[09:47] <jeanjean> grout_work,
[09:47] <webben> sonics: how are they seeing them? are these in text documents? web pages? on IRC?
[09:47] <POVaddct> sonics: because you send umlauts with utf-8 encoding and they expect iso8859-* encoding i guess
[09:47] <jeanjean> grout_work, ok no problem
[09:48] <sonics> POVaddct: that might be it... so theres nuffing i can do about it instead of changing my font here but then it wont look that good
[09:48] <sonics> webben: whatcha mean?!
[09:48] <POVaddct> sonics: font and encoding are two different things
[09:49] <sonics> oh ok.. im sorry Im a bit new to all this stuff :D
[09:49] <PSUSI> senori: when you say they can't see them, how are they supposed to see them?  telepathy?  when you typed them in your question on irc just now I saw them just fine
[09:49] <sonics> what would you suggest me
[09:49] <sonics> ?
[09:49] <POVaddct> sonics: look if your client can set encoding to iso8859-*
[09:49] <sonics> im using irssi
[09:49] <Atomiku> So I cant use the CDROM to install ubuntu and im also having alot of trouble with the net install. Is it possible to download an image of an already installed ubuntu and copy it to a blank hard drive
[09:50] <POVaddct> sonics: irssi has a setting for that. i dont know where though :)
[09:50] <PSUSI> Atomiku: why cant you use the cdrom?
[09:50] <sonics> ill check their homepage..
[09:50] <sonics> thnx =)
[09:50] <cappe_> are there any good program that checks for vulns in the system? other than root kits..
[09:51] <Atomiku> Well, it cant boot DVDs and all I have is DVDrs
[09:51] <kitche7> sonics: it's in /home/<user>/.irssi
[09:51] <sonics> hm whats there...?!
[09:51] <DigitalNinja> can someone give me an IP address for a DNS server I can run a "dig" on?
[09:51] <PSUSI> Atomiku: so run to the corner drug store and pick up a cdr?
[09:51] <esj> any good pointers on how to create init.d scripts?
[09:51] <POVaddct> sonics: i think irssi can even convert encodings. so it can run in an utf-8 terminal while sending iso* to others
[09:52] <savje> I've got a divided rar archive, and need to unrar it but can't do it the 'ordinary' way, how do I do?
[09:52] <sonics> that would be great... does irssi without utf-8 even look good?
[09:52] <Atomiku> PSUSI: thats not the point
[09:52] <POVaddct> sonics: looks normal to me :)
[09:52] <sonics> :P
[09:52] <POVaddct> sonics: wanna see a screen shot?
[09:52] <Milkyy> Sound still isn't working.
[09:53] <sonics> yeah sure =D
[09:53] <sonics> why not
[09:53] <kitche7> sonics: utf-8 is just a encoding doesn't matter what the client looks like
[09:54] <sonics> - Change irssi encoding `/SET term_charset iso-8859-15`
[09:54] <sonics> is that it?
[09:54] <xipietotec> okay....ubuntu detects my camera but wont import photos from it
[09:54] <GigaClon> how can I type in japanese without change the default language
[09:54] <POVaddct> sonics: look pretty much like it
[09:54] <savje> I've got a divided rar archive, and need to unrar it but can't do it the 'ordinary' way, how do I do?
[09:54] <sonics> ah ok, looking nice too POV :)
[09:55] <GigaClon> try unraring the first
[09:55] <GigaClon> then point it to next in the seris when it asks
[09:55] <_asdy_> hello
[09:55] <sonics> POVaddct: ja koennen wir aber muss mich wohl irgendwo anmelden fuer queries
[09:55] <POVaddct> sonics: stimmt
[09:55] <_asdy_> when gdm opens the system blocks :(
[09:55] <cpk2> GigaClon: that would seem a bit tedious if there were say oh 50 rars =\
[09:56] <sonics> ich mach ma grad :)
[09:56] <cappe_> Milkyy: have a look at this site. it's the same problem discussed http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=340099
[09:56] <GigaClon> once it know the pattern it does the rest
[09:56] <_asdy_> keyboard and mouse blocked :S
[09:56] <_asdy_> if I push the shutdown button
[09:56] <_asdy_> the system shuts down with the normal Ubuntu screen
[09:57] <_asdy_> progress bar
[09:57] <_asdy_> I've even tried to format and reinstall :(
[09:57] <motin_> hey - I thought my memory card reader didnt work on my laptop, then i rebooted and found the SD-memory card mounted! I requires a reboot that is... but is there a way to manually "simulate" a reboot once dapper is up and running so that the device can be used?
[09:57] <_asdy_> what can I do?
[09:57] <pozdiy> I'm going to replace my CRT display with another, more recent one, what are the steps to proceed after connecting the new display? Or, will Dapper recognize new monitor on the fly?
[09:58] <DigitalNinja> Anyone in here know anything about DNS
[09:58] <DigitalNinja> list
[09:58] <cpk2> pozdiy: its supposed to recognize it but you might have to restart x
[09:58] <pozdiy> cpk2, tnx
[09:59] <xipietotec> okay, ubuntu recognizes my camera on auto-detect (a Canon Powershot A40) but gives me two errors when I try to import files from the flash card on it: First it tells me I have a bad parameters error in the driver, then it tells me "no images found"
[10:00] <_asdy_> what could I do? :(
[10:01] <xipietotec> I'm also getting a "lock keys failed" error
[10:01] <savje> I've got a divided rar archive, and when I try to unrar it I get the following error message: "Archivetype is not supported", do I need another unpacking program to unpack it?
[10:01] <Pierre> _asdy_, http://www.edginet.org/techie/linux/canon.html read only the last paragraph "Omniflash..." the rest is already done by ubuntu
[10:02] <cappe_> savje: try unrar from rarlabs... then issue this command: unrar e ~myuser/path_to_rar.rarX (take the first in the part-serie)
[10:03] <DeZusa> I have a question about installing Ubuntu on my laptop. Will I have to find drive routines for stuff after the installation to be able to use it. For example the dvd-drive, the usb port, the WLAN etc.
[10:03] <lampshade> drive routines?
[10:04] <cappe_> drivers =)
[10:04] <DeZusa> erm... I guess that's what I meant ;)
[10:04] <Ignatius> DeZusa: I doubt it.
[10:04] <xipietotec> Pierre: Should I use gphoto2 or the Compact Flash reader?
[10:04] <lampshade> I've not even heard of that?  What laptop?  Everything on my Dell 6000 worked including the media keys up front with zero config.  So depending on your laptop maybe, but if it is a popular brand... probably not.
[10:04] <Ignatius> DeZusa: mine worked out of the box.
[10:04] <lampshade> err I meant
[10:04] <lampshade> whoops
[10:04] <Pierre> xipietotec, ah wrong nick before, the mount part
[10:04] <lampshade> haha I meant that if it is a popular brand you will probably NOT have to config stuff
[10:05] <DeZusa> It's an Acer
[10:05] <lampshade> what wireless? on it do you know off the top of your head?  Like Intel or anything like that?  That's usually the hardest step because after you get wireless if there are other things you need to install they are usually downloadable and installable very easily
[10:05] <xipietotec> err.....so I need to write that script and what not and create all the necessary files, etc.?
[10:06] <lampshade> what type of acer anyway?
[10:06] <cappe_> you won't have to pic drivers and install them as you are used to in Windows... most of the drivers will come and will be installed and setup by the Ubuntu-installation program
[10:06] <Pierre> xipietotec, mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/uno is the important part
[10:06] <xipietotec> okay, cool! =)
[10:06] <Pierre> xipietotec, and to check that your device is listed in /proc (the cat... cmd)
[10:06] <kmaynard> anyone run parallels?
[10:07] <kmaynard> !parallels
[10:07] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about parallels - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:07] <kmaynard> hmm
[10:07] <xipietotec> mount point /mnt/uno does not exist
[10:07] <Pierre> xipietotec, the rest is to mount it automatically using the right parameter
[10:07] <profoX`> xipietotec: create it first with mkdir
[10:07] <profoX`> xipietotec: sudo mkdir /mnt/uno
[10:07] <DeZusa> I don't know what brand the hardware is, but the standard is the usual 802.11 b/g
[10:07] <lampshade> well yeah,
[10:07] <Ademan> if looks like my edgy upgrade is gonna fail, i'm gonna reinstall from the full install cd on the 26th, what of my computer *should* i back up besides my home folder? anything really? or would i be fine?
[10:08] <lampshade> DeZusa: But like it needs drivers and I know certain drivers are included by default.  Like my intel centrino wireless was zero config as well.  It autodetected and I was on the net instantly
[10:08] <profoX`> Ademan: all your currently installed packages maybe
[10:08] <Ignatius> wpa is another thing, though?
[10:08] <profoX`> and maybe some files in /etc
[10:08] <profoX`> like config files
[10:09] <Ademan> profoX`: I have no problem reinstalling the packages
[10:09] <Ademan> but like...
[10:09] <Ademan> yeah i was thinking config
[10:09] <profoX`> Ademan: ya, maybe /etc then.. ?
[10:09] <DeZusa> well, I wouldn't know. My primary connection is LAN, though. It should get that...
[10:09] <Ademan> all of /etc ?
[10:09] <profoX`> Ademan: /etc contains many config files
[10:09] <DeZusa> after I'm connected through that I should be able to find out what I need, right?
[10:09] <profoX`> Ademan: you won't need all, but there's some stuff in it that you might want to keep
[10:09] <www2> can som one tell me how can i lisend to the shoutcast stream with xmms uder ubuntu?
[10:10] <profoX`> Ademan: systemwide configuration for some programs
[10:10] <ambimom> xipietotec: I have same camera and had no problems with flash card
[10:10] <Ademan> profoX`: well yeah, but i can't think of any specific config files i need other than my sources.list, and i generated that with source-o-matic... so i dunno...
[10:10] <xipietotec> ah crap....that mounted my usb hard drive
[10:10] <xipietotec> not my camera
[10:10] <profoX`> Ademan: ye well.. your /home is most important.. so i guess you're fine
[10:11] <profoX`> what are you scared of for losing?
[10:11] <cappe_> drag and drop the .pls-file to the playlist in xmms then just hit "play" =)
[10:11] <Ademan> nothing really, just wanna make it as little time between the re-install and being up and running
[10:11] <xipietotec> which was allready mounted to another place
[10:11] <lampshade> DeZusa: yeah, I would bet you are pretty good to go.  If you want, you can always google around for your laptop's model name and such and see if you see any problems with Ubuntu and such.   I don't know.  You can always throw in a live cd and see what is detected and what isn't.
[10:11] <ccb> hi all - friend of mine installed ubuntu 6.06 on ppc 4 12 inch. wiped out osx and now cannot seem to boot from cd rom any ideas?
[10:11] <lampshade> DeZusa: the live cd won't change your hd or anything so you can try it out and then eject the cd when done and you will be back to windows.
[10:12] <Wite_Casul> can someone please tell me how to set evironmental variables/ paths up in ubuntu?
[10:12] <DeZusa> what exactly is meant by a live cd? is that like running the OS from the disk?
[10:12] <Wite_Casul> for example, I'd want to change the java path that the system comes with to a java installation I installed in a different place
[10:12] <cappe_> export PATH=PATH:/more/folders
[10:12] <Ademan> Wite_Casul: dpkg-configure-alternatives or something
[10:12] <savje> I've downloaded rarlabs unraring tool, but can't figuring out how to use it ( newbie :) )
[10:13] <savje> plz help...
[10:13] <Wite_Casul> thanks :)
[10:13] <lampshade> savje: Have you tried just the nonfree version of rar that is in the repos?
[10:14] <xipietotec> now after unplugging my usb hard drive I get "error: special device /dev/sda1 does not exist"
[10:14] <porkpie__> guy's whats the command to find out  .....how many cpu's have been detected
[10:14] <constrictor> besides Dia does anyone know any other modelling software out there?
[10:14] <lampshade> savje: might want to try that,  I usually have better luck with it.
[10:14] <Ademan> constrictor: you're talking about UML?
[10:14] <Splittor> umbrello will do UML
[10:14] <constrictor> yes
[10:15] <savje> lampshade: a bit to much linux-tech-talk for me there... do you mean the unziping tool that follow with the standard installation of ubuntu?
[10:15] <xipietotec> help :(
[10:15] <constrictor> thanks i'll look into it
[10:15] <Ademan> umbrello is good
[10:15] <Ademan> i'm pretty sure openoffice draw has some VERY BASIC uml caps
[10:15] <niko7865> savje: i think you can only unrar from the command line, have you tried that?
[10:15] <xipietotec> I think I broke it
[10:16] <constrictor> how UML modelling software for gnome?
[10:16] <savje> niko: I figured out that it's only commandline :) but can figuring out how...
[10:16] <cappe_> savje: type wget http://www.rarlab.com/rar/rarlinux-3.6.0.tar.gz or surf there. then download it, and tar zxvf file.tar.gz then run "unrar" program with ./unrar e file.rarX (first of the partfiles)
[10:17] <iwkse> anybody can help me with ati 9800pro? i'm not able to load the fglrx module..i get module fglrx.ko not found....
[10:18] <Ademan> constrictor: Dia is GNOME software, or at the very least Gtk, dunno if its technically part of the GNOME project though
[10:18] <savje> cappe: sorry, first day of linux/ubuntu so I don't know how to do even the most basic stuff... could you explain the "run "unrar" program with ./unrar e file.rarX (first of the partfiles)" part a bit more i detail?
[10:18] <xipietotec> Okay so here's the current problem: I have a camera which is persona-non-grata to my computer, ubuntu auto-detects it as the correct camera type, now I tried using mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/uno, but I had my usb HD plugged in when I did this and it remapped my usb hard drive to that location, but does not recognize my camera as /dev/sda1
[10:19] <constrictor> Ademan: yeah i've tried it and it's suits my purpose i was just wondering if there was another alternative, i'm researching at the moment
[10:19] <cappe_> savje: have you extract the files from the arhive?
[10:19] <justmike> hi everyone  -- i am new to Ubuntu and running version 6.06 from the live cd.  I cannot get firefox to start.
[10:19] <lampshade> savje: basically in the repos there are two versions of rar.  One that is "free" because of licensing and one that is "nonfree" although both cost 0 dollars.  Personally I switched to the nonfree one and have been good with that.  Seems to open files the other can't.  It depends how you feel about restrictions with licensing, but it might be worth a shot.
[10:20] <savje> cappe: yes, if you mean the archive which I downloaded from rarlabs...
[10:20] <Daviey> Does anybody know how to go about setting up QOS on ubuntu?
[10:20] <ww2> Hey, does the open source ATI driver have 3d acceleration?
[10:20] <lampshade> ww2: no
[10:20] <jazzygm_uk> anyone know how to move the screen so I can get about 30 pixels back - they hang off the left side!
[10:20] <cappe_> savje: yes. ok enter that folder then type ./unrar and see what happends.. if it's starting at all..
[10:21] <lampshade> ww2: or... I think it might have some but it is minimal so you need to use the binary driver for most 3d things.
[10:21] <savje> cappe: in the terminal? :-/
[10:21] <cappe_> savje: yup that program is a console-application
[10:21] <ww2> lampshade, well... anyway you can "swap drivers" in an easy way? Cause I'm running XGL/Beryl and want to play 3d games aswell... but I'm having some instability issues. Heard the fglrx drivers may be the cause and that open source drivers would be more stable.
[10:22] <savje> cappe: yes, it prints a kind of command list
[10:22] <spiderworm> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=279705 <--- anyone have any ideas?
[10:22] <cappe_> savje: then type ./unrar e _path_to_rarfiles/rarfile.r00
[10:23] <ww2> lampshade: or... with the open source drivers I could install AIGLX, which is supposed to be more stable than XGL
[10:23] <lampshade> ww2: ?  I don't think you can play 3d games with the os drivers.  I could be wrong, but as far as  I know you want to use the fglrx drivers.  What you might want to do is enter it without the special 3d desktop stuff on which.  You'll still be using the fglrlx drivers but your desktop won't be using the 3d card.  That'd be my guess because when I play Quake III with XGL Beryl stuff on it chokes hard
[10:24] <lampshade> ww2: like the way I have mine setup is that XGL and Beryl are on only when I want them to be.  I have to log on under "XGL"  and otherwise they are off--like right now
[10:24] <ww2> lampshade: thanks, but I want to ue the 3d stuff really, just installed it =D
[10:24] <porkpie__> guy's is the command cpuid or something like that to see how many cpu's are installed
[10:24] <ww2> lampshade, it's not involuntary or anything
[10:24] <ww2> lampshade, I didnt mean that
[10:24] <strabes> lampshade: i have the same setup. when you want to play quake or some other game, can't you use the beryl settings program to switch to metacity?
[10:24] <Wite_Casul> waugh, what the hell
[10:25] <DigitalNinja> Does anyone know when etch is comming out?
[10:25] <eddie_> trying to get sound working in ubuntu how should troubleshoot
[10:25] <Wite_Casul> my /etc/environment file is read only/permission denied. is it supposed to be like that?
[10:25] <ww2> lampshade, I mean... a way to have BOTH drivers installed or "semi-installed" and use one or another depending on what you want to do. So, if you are running XGL/Beryl, you use open source drivers. If you want to play a 3d game, you use proprietary drivers.
[10:25] <lampshade> strabes: probably now... I'm new to the beryl setttings program.  I used to be runnign the old Quinn Storm packages in which case I couldn't do that so I'm used to logging on and off for that sort of stuff.
[10:25] <constrictor> eddie_: what is the problem with your sound?
[10:25] <savje> cappe: thanks! it seams to be working! 8-)
[10:26] <eddie_> constrictor: there is none, lol
[10:26] <cappe_> savje: great, enjoy
[10:26] <savje> lampshade: how do I install the nonfree unziping tool?
[10:26] <totall_6_7> Wite_Casul: yes it is, try sudo gedit
[10:26] <Daviey> DigitalNinja, etch = december
[10:26] <constrictor> any particular file type or no sound out all including system sounds?
[10:26] <lampshade> etch?
[10:26] <DigitalNinja> Daviey: Thanks!
[10:26] <lampshade> or edgy?  Cause Edgy is October 26
[10:26] <lampshade> right?
[10:26] <Agrajag> etch is the next version of debian
[10:27] <DaBuss> Hey all, i'm runnin a distro of Ubuntu, i'm at kermel 2.6.15, and would like to upgrade to 2.6.18, I was wondering if there was a way to do this without compling the kernel myself(as i do not the the configure options), but i have tried Synaptic, and apt-get and they only have the linux-image up to 2.6.15, even after i do a apt-get update
[10:27] <eddie_> constrictor: yes no system sounds or file sounds e.g. mp3 and what not...I have all the codecs installed properly
[10:27] <cappe_> savje: if you want to extract the files to an other place then the directory you are in issue this command: ./unrar x path_to_file.rar00 /path/to/where/to/extract
[10:27] <Daviey> DigitalNinja, Edge = Debian Edgy = Ubuntu
[10:27] <lampshade> Oh, I thought that had come out already for debian... oh cool.
[10:27] <DigitalNinja> lampshade: Maybe I was thinking of Edgy
[10:27] <strabes> lampshade: oh. so I take it you have beryl-manager and the xmodmap set to start up with gnome? you can switch to metacity without logging off by right clicking on the beryl icon in the notification area. that should free up your video card's 3d
[10:27] <constrictor> was soundcard detected?
[10:27] <xipietotec> this is what dmesg is printing out whenever I try to mount my camera as a device: [17198707.484000]  usb 1-1: usbfs: USBDEVFS_CONTROL failed cmd gthumb rqt 192 rq 4 len 88 ret -75
[10:27] <Wite_Casul> totall_6_7: I get a Gtk-WARNING, and gedit doesn't open
[10:27] <DigitalNinja> Daviey: I was thinking of Edgy
[10:28] <strabes> digitalninja: yeah. it's edgy and it comes out the 26th of october. 1 week!
[10:28] <Daviey> DigitalNinja, Oct 26th then
[10:28] <lampshade> strabes: yeah now I do.  NOt originally though.
[10:28] <sgruber> how do I get my Encore USB wireless-G adapter to work?
[10:28] <eddie_> constrictor: im nearly certain
[10:28] <strabes> lampshade: ok cool.
[10:28] <constrictor> DidgitalNinja: i just upgraded to edgy
[10:28] <lekikui> hate to bug people, but could someone give me a hand with something? My wireless card has stopped working since the beginning of today. Device manager tells me I have a Netgear MA311 802.11b
[10:28] <Daviey> Who will upgrade as soon as it's released?!!?
[10:28] <fbc> What synaptics package should I load to get the java runtime? Liveperson.net keeps telling me to load it.
[10:28] <DigitalNinja> strabes: I just got into Dapper. In one week I need to upgrade? When will the battel end
[10:28] <ubutom> im on edgy too :)
[10:28] <sgruber> how do I get my Encore USB wireless-G adapter to work?
[10:29] <Daviey> DigitalNinja, I'm staying the Dapper for a bit - there's more support.  Especially if you want to add extra repo's
[10:29] <eddie_> constrictor: what do you think the next logical step should be
[10:29] <silox> hey how do i Record VOIP (SIP) in Ubuntu Linux?
[10:29] <strabes> digitalnina: you don't necessarily HAVE to upgrade. you can easily though by just backing up your entire home folder. you can also upgrade without formatting but i dont like doing that
[10:29] <eddie_> constrictor: for my sound
[10:29] <savje> cappe: ok, I was wondering where the file did go... btw, is there any way I can add these programs (rar unrar etc) to the standard commandlist, so I can use it folder independent?
[10:29] <Daviey> silox, what softphone are you using?
[10:29] <DigitalNinja> Daviey: I see. I'll put together a test box and see how she handles
[10:29] <constrictor> in your sound settings, is sounds set to autodetect
[10:29] <constrictor> ?
[10:30] <fbc> What synaptics package should I load to get the java runtime? Liveperson.net keeps telling me to load it.
[10:30] <silox> Davie Twinkle
[10:30] <constrictor> or have you specified what sound card to use
[10:30] <eddie_> constrictor: how would I set this
[10:30] <DigitalNinja> Daviey: Got to take the new stuff out for a test drive
[10:30] <Daviey> savje, have you looked at unfoo (my life would be stuck without it)
[10:30] <lampshade> savje: If you have the extra repos installed you an just use Synaptic to install the programs (Under System >> Administration) or on the command line with sudo apt-get install unrar
[10:30] <constrictor> ok
[10:30] <lampshade> savje: if you don't have the extra repos you will have to install it first.
[10:30] <silox> daviey twinkle
[10:30] <totall_6_7> Wite_Casul: sorry no clue maybe someone else can answer for you
[10:31] <DigitalNinja> unfoo???
[10:31] <Daviey> DigitalNinja, yeah, i'm latest and greatest normally.  For my server i'll stick with Dapper, might change the desktop machine tho
[10:31] <constrictor> eddie_ in sytem -> preferences -> sound click on devices tab and see what the settings are
[10:31] <sgruber> I need some help with my wireless lan
[10:31] <savje> daviey: what's unfoo?
[10:31] <Wite_Casul> can someone ples tell me why gedit's giving me a Gtk warning when I try to start it from terminal?
[10:31] <constrictor> daviey: i upgraded to edgy only today
[10:31] <Wite_Casul> it works fine when I open a .java file
[10:31] <savje> lampshade: ok, thanks I'll look in to that, (sometime :) )
[10:32] <DaBuss> Hey all, i'm runnin a distro of Ubuntu, i'm at kermel 2.6.15, and would like to upgrade to 2.6.18, I was wondering if there was a way to do this without compling the kernel myself(as i do not the the configure options), but i have tried Synaptic, and apt-get and they only have the linux-image up to 2.6.15, even after i do a apt-get update
[10:32] <Daviey> unfoo is a wrapper script for zip, rar, ace and tar
[10:32] <cappe_> savje: try export PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/games:/home/myusername/path_to_rar_folder/
[10:32] <constrictor> and it's been seamless so far
[10:32] <DigitalNinja> Daviey: I'll put here in 64bit mode and floor it :)
[10:32] <silox> Anyone know how to Record VOIP SIP calls in Ubuntu Linux :/ ??
[10:32] <fbc> What synaptics package should I load to get the java runtime? Liveperson.net keeps telling me to load it.
[10:32] <eddie_> constrictor: cheers :) sorted
[10:32] <lampshade> savje: heh, I know, it is kinda overwhelming at first, but lots of stuff you only do once.  Like adding the new repos.  From then on you don't ever need to do that.
[10:32] <jazzygm> can anyone recommend a decent c++ IDE, I want something a bit more pro-active than xemacs (colour coding, better auto-layout etc)
[10:32] <constrictor> eddie: cool
[10:32] <sgruber> can anybody help me with my wireless connection
[10:32] <lampshade> jazzygm: Anjuta maybe?
[10:33] <lampshade> jazzygm: heh, or vim
[10:33] <constrictor> sgruber: what is the problem with your card?
[10:33] <sgruber> I have a USB device
[10:33] <constrictor> sorry connection :-)
[10:33] <lampshade> ubotu: !java
[10:33] <constrictor> ok
[10:33] <Daviey> Unfoo: http://obsoleet.org/code/unfoo/  plonk it in /usr/bin/unfoo and type "unfoo archieve.rar"
[10:33] <ubotu> java is To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java  -  For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository
[10:33] <segfault_> jazzygm, there are plenty but xemacs (and gvim) will both do color
[10:33] <savje> cappe: what will that command do? "export PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/games:/home/myusername/path_to_rar_folder/"
[10:33] <sgruber> the system won't see it as a connection in network preferneces
[10:33] <constrictor> and is it detected when you plug it in?
[10:33] <DaBuss> any takers on my dilema with upgrading the kernel
[10:34] <cappe_> savje: or do like this: sudo cp /path/to/rar/unrar /usr/local/bin and also the same command but for "rar"
[10:34] <Ademan> how do i find out my current Xorg version?
[10:34] <fbc> What synaptics package should I load to get the java runtime? Liveperson.net keeps telling me to load it.
[10:34] <constrictor> sgruber: go to system -> admin -> devices and see if your device has been detected
[10:35] <Carnage\> fbc: sun-java5-bin
[10:35] <Carnage\> or prolly sun-java5-jre
[10:35] <lampshade> how do you make ubotu tell people things
[10:35] <Daviey> Ademan, /usr/bin/Xorg -version
[10:35] <red|rain> Hi, how do I keep a package at a certain version? I made a .deb package of gaim beta 4, but synaptic wants to change it to beta3.
[10:35] <savje> cappe: in other words (I guess that cp means copy) all programs which is in "/usr/local/bin" is accessable fodler independent?
[10:35] <cappe_> savje: it will extend your PATH so that it will include the unrar and rar program when typing it in the console
[10:35] <lampshade> people do it to me a lot haha I feel left out not doing it to other people :-/
[10:36] <DaBuss> Hey all, i'm runnin a distro of Ubuntu, i'm at kermel 2.6.15, and would like to upgrade to 2.6.18, I was wondering if there was a way to do this without compling the kernel myself(as i do not the the configure options), but i have tried Synaptic, and apt-get and they only have the linux-image up to 2.6.15, even after i do a apt-get update
[10:36] <cappe_> savje: correct.
[10:36] <constrictor> DaBuss: the only way i know how you can upgrade is trying it from the edgy repos
[10:36] <Ademan> what version should i have if edgy installed correctly?
[10:36] <Daviey> DaBuss, what repo's are you using?
[10:36] <DaBuss> standard
[10:36] <constrictor> edgy
[10:36] <savje> cabbe: ok, and for all users? could I make it just for my user?
[10:36] <constrictor> because i upgraded only today
[10:36] <DaBuss> ill check, h/o a sec
[10:36] <red|rain> DaBuss, it's easy to complie the kernel, try following this guide.  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=217657&highlight=kernel
[10:37] <DaBuss> i have no clue to what the options are tho
[10:37] <red|rain> DaBuss, you don't have to set any, it will use your current settings.
[10:37] <Daviey> Ademan, i *think* 1:7.1.1 what do you have?
[10:37] <red|rain> tho I do suggest changing the one for your CPU.
[10:38] <DaBuss> well, i didnt know that, sry for botherin you guys, n thx for the help
[10:38] <lekikui> hate to bug people, but could someone give me a hand with something? My wireless card has stopped working since the beginning of today. Device manager tells me I have a Netgear MA311 802.11b
[10:38] <red|rain> DaBuss, no probs ^_^
[10:38] <constrictor> in the wiki go to edgy and look for how to upgrade although you won't be upgrading it will tell you how to edit your sources.list
[10:39] <Daviey> Ademan, i say that because that is what is in the edgy repo http://tinyurl.com/y6xvwq
[10:39] <silox> how do i Record VOIP (SIP) in Ubuntu Linux?
[10:39] <CromagDK> record ?
[10:39] <cappe_> savje: well then you have to have the program in your homedirectory and put it chmod -R 700 rarfolder/ then use the export command..
[10:39] <Daviey> silox, what application are you using!!!
[10:40] <Ademan> Daviey: 7.0.0 so my upgrade failed lol
[10:40] <silox> Daviey i said that before, Twinkle..
[10:40] <lekikui> hate to bug people, but could someone give me a hand with something? My wireless card has stopped working since the beginning of today. Device manager tells me I have a Netgear MA311 802.11b
[10:40] <Daviey> silox, sorry i missed that
[10:40] <constrictor> lekikui: and you dont have a netgear?
[10:41] <silox> Daviey thats ok ^^ so u know how to do it?
[10:41] <savje> cabbe: ok, thanks again!
[10:41] <savje> If I run unrar from usr/bin/ will the unzipped file be put in the /usr/bin/ folder or in the folder where the zipped file is?
[10:42] <Bergcube> I need an advice on what aplication to use...  I want to turn a series of images into a PDF file.  I could of course make a document in OOo with one page pr image.  But I hope there might be a more direct method.  Any tips, clever people?
[10:42] <cappe_> it will be put where the .rar-files are if you issue unrar e else it will be put where you want it to with unrar x file.rar00 /path/to/a/directory/where/i/wanna/exctract :)
[10:42] <nicolas9510> .
[10:43] <cappe_> /path/to/a/directory/where/i/wanna/exctract/to :) makes more sence
[10:43] <bensr20det> Hello, sorry if this has been addressed but I am unable to do any updates. When I open the window to view the updates I need it says "Failed to download the list of changes. Please check your Internet connection." in the details. But I am online as you can all tell.
[10:43] <Daviey> silox, Have a look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto  Although it is targeted towards skype, it should still work.  You need to make a virtual sound device to act in the middle between the microphone and Twinkle
[10:44] <savje> cappe: ok!
[10:44] <silox> Daviey ok thx
[10:44] <constrictor> bensr20det: are you behind a firewall?
[10:44] <constrictor> or proxy?
[10:44] <savje> cappe: you don't possibly know where and how I can install the perfect codec-pack?
[10:44] <bensr20det> no proxy and the only firewall is in my router
[10:45] <cappe_> savje: you wont need that if you have VLC :)
[10:45] <sgruber> can somebody help me with my wireless connection?
[10:45] <erUSUL> !wifi
[10:45] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[10:46] <Seeker2599> whats the command to extract a .tar.bz2
[10:46] <Daviey> silox, Sorry they have used a specific tool for that.  This might be better http://porpoisehead.net/hi/?q=node/23
[10:46] <mjr> tar xjf foo.tar.bz2
[10:46] <erUSUL> Seeker2599: tar xf
[10:46] <Seeker2599> ty
[10:46] <savje> cappe: yes I know, cause I got VLC but the video file I try to play is all black, there is sound though (which often points to a codec problem)
[10:47] <Seeker2599> wait xf or xjf?
[10:47] <jelly> Hi, does ubuntu's kernel have support for vmwarefb?
[10:47] <bensr20det> constrictor: this is the error message I get when I try to download them anyway "Could not connect to localhost:4001 (<IP_ADDRESS>). - connect (111 Connection refused)"
[10:47] <ww2> Hey... is it a good idea to upgrade from Firefox (Swiftfox actually) <IP_ADDRESS> to RC3? Faster, slower?
[10:47] <cappe_> savje: have you tried it with MPlayer ?
[10:48] <killown> hello ! how I do to configure xorg in ubuntu?
[10:48] <erUSUL> killown: try 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[10:48] <constrictor> bensr20det: did you touch your source.list file?
[10:49] <killown> thanks
[10:49] <anon32> question: how do I create a Video DVD? can I just copy mpeg files to a VIDEO_TS folder?
[10:49] <savje> cappe: no, but with totem (with no codecs installed) so it was not suprising that it did not work...
[10:49] <savje> cappe: how do I run Mplayer?
[10:49] <bensr20det> constrictor: not that I can remember
[10:49] <anon32> savje, um, type mplayer in a terminal?
[10:50] <riddlebox> savje, applications-->sound/video I believe
[10:50] <bensr20det> constrictor: also I do have firestarter firewall but it is disabled
[10:50] <erUSUL> anon32: try qdvdauthor
[10:50] <HumanPrototype> how do i uninstall the gnome network manager?
[10:50] <anon32> erUSUL, can I just do it manually?
[10:51] <constrictor> go to system -> admin -> software sources and see if there's anything out of the ordinary there
[10:51] <Luke> I have gnome-screensaver... how do I get it to turn off my monitors backlight when the screen goes blank?
[10:51] <savje> anon & riddlebox: :) meent of course install when I say "run" :P
[10:51] <savje> but I've found it now
[10:52] <bensr20det> I dont have software sources but i do have software properties and the package manager
[10:52] <cappe_> what's the command of disabling the PC-beep in ubuntu?? i used setbfreq 0 in another distribution..
[10:52] <erUSUL> anon32: manually? from comand line?
[10:53] <bensr20det> and so you know I am a bit new to ubuntu and linux
[10:53] <anon32> erUSUL, no.. manually as in with a generic DVD recording app
[10:53] <Luke> cappe_: xset -b
[10:53] <anon32> no fancy scripts
[10:53] <totall_6_7> Luke: how do you get to screensaver settings?
[10:53] <Daviey> Can anybody tell me how to use the shell command 'date' to output including milliseconds?
[10:54] <cappe_> savje: did you have mplayer at all?
[10:54] <Luke> totall_6_7: through the settings menu
[10:54] <erUSUL> anon32: qdvdauthor is a graphic app not a fancy script if that's what you mean. the gnomebaker from backports can do it iirc but i never tried
[10:54] <anon32> erUSUL, it's a script....
[10:54] <anon32> a video DVD has something to do with a special file used as a flag... but don't remember how that works
[10:54] <totall_6_7> Luke: If you look in the settings menu you will see Power Managment, that should answer your screen question
[10:55] <Caesar> Hey does anyone have a dapper installation that has /var on a separate filesystem?
[10:55] <Caesar> Just wondering how resolvconf goes for you...

[11:06] <ww2> jsleeper, well, I'm no expert, but you can use wildcards (e.g. *)
[11:07] <Daviey> BoyBach, Your using Ubuntu with Gnome right?  If you click Places then go to Network Servers does it come up empty?
[11:07] <BoyBach> no windows network
[11:07] <Daviey> BoyBach, I don't understand what you mean
[11:07] <SB|nblracer> raintheory dose your video card come up at PCI?
[11:07] <BoyBach> wicked didnt know that was there
[11:07] <BoyBach> sorry found it.
[11:08] <BoyBach> thank you.
[11:08] <Daviey> BoyBach, is it showing your share?
[11:08] <BoyBach> yeah
[11:08] <nick1> jstarcher: if they're all in the same folder you can just copy them all with * , like cp /dir/mystuff/* /newdir/mystuff/*
[11:08] <SB|nblracer> raintheory I too have an ATI rage with videoout, and my issuie is it comes up as PCI not AGP
[11:08] <Daviey> BoyBach, from there you should be able to mount it (if you want)
[11:09] <raintheory> SB|nblracer,   nope, but mine is a nVidia card actually.
[11:09] <BoyBach> would mount do.
[11:09] <anon32> um, why does Ubuntu ship with restricted drivers?
[11:09] <raintheory> brb
[11:10] <bigmoe> i have installed ubuntu but there are no sounds i cant listen to anythng on it
[11:10] <jewbilee> anyone got an cool Ubuntu tips or tricks to share with me since im a noob at it?
[11:10] <bigmoe> could anyone help me!!
[11:10] <anon32> perhaps I should have said - why does Ubuntu ship with non-free drivers?
[11:10] <jstarcher> nick1: yeah but I don't want all of them.... probably easiest to use a file manager?
[11:10] <Daviey> anon32, often they work best?
[11:10] <anon32> Daviey, but... the whole freedom argument...
[11:11] <ww2> anon32, because they are still needed by most consumer-level users, I suppose?
[11:11] <anon32> if you can ship non-free drivers, why not ship non-free codecs?
[11:11] <anon32> ww2, mm..
[11:11] <Daviey> anon32, but we are human beings (ie Ubuntu: linux for human beings)
[11:11] <sharms> anon32: codecs don't have a proper liscensee to run on linux
[11:11] <ww2> anon32, they are optional anyway... it's not like Ubuntu developers are trying to impose the use of proprietary stuff.
[11:11] <nick1> jstarcher: yeah, with the Ctrl button to keep the files you want selected
[11:11] <bigmoe> what about the audio drivers how can i know if they are working properly
[11:12] <nick1> jewbilee: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper
[11:12] <cappe_> bigmoe: lsmod |grep -i snd
[11:12] <Daviey> bigme, have a look at alsamixer
[11:12] <mikewinsdesk> i need help getting my ssh server to work, i think i accidently deleted some kind of openssh server file and now i cant ssh into it and when i press the start button on webmin it just refreshes the page
[11:12] <jstarcher> nick1: yep, thanks... why can't I select a range if I hold shift? (in Rox Filer anyway)
[11:12] <Driller> Anyone have any idea of how to list the users on sftpd? or whatever that ftp server is called? :)
[11:12] <mikewinsdesk> is there any way i can get it to work via webmin ?
[11:13] <lufis> Isn't Edgy supposed to be out soon?
[11:13] <mcdonaldswes> is there a way to control which kernel update-grub puts in option #0 without actually modifying the menu.lst file?
[11:13] <cappe_> please put DC++ in the standard installation of Edgy :)
[11:13] <Daviey> mikewinsdesk, so a sudo apt-get remove ssh // then reinstall - see if that fixes it
[11:13] <bigmoe> cappe_: everything seem to be fine but still no sounds
[11:13] <graveson> what can i use to write my blog offline- i have a blog from wordpress
[11:13] <Driller> anyone? :>
[11:13] <nick1> jstarcher: i think you can selecte ranges with ctrl down too
[11:14] <Daviey> lufis, next week
[11:14] <bigmoe> cappe_: even when i installed xmms and other audio players nothing went wrong
[11:14] <jstarcher> nick1:  hmmm, I can't seem to get it to work :-(
[11:14] <lufis> Daviey: Oh, dear. I can't wait. :(
[11:14] <nick1> lufis: 26th?
[11:14] <yock> RC1 is out today
[11:14] <cappe_> bigmoe: then try alsamixer and see if you have enabled sound
[11:14] <leakd>  n8
[11:14] <Daviey> lufis, if you can't wait install it now ;)
[11:14] <dtygel> hi there
[11:14] <nick1> iv been using it for a while... waiting for 7.04 :)
[11:14] <yock> what th-...
[11:15] <ntfx> okay, I'm noob at this, I cant configure the xorg right after the installation and get it to work
[11:15] <dtygel> do you know how to install ubuntu through floppy and LAN (internet or another ubuntu machine)?
[11:15] <lufis> Daviey: Under normal circumstances I would but I've learned the hard way about installing beta software :P
[11:15] <Daviey> lufis, yeah - i'll probably leave it until christmas, wait for it to get real stable!
[11:15] <dtygel> CDRom isn't working: when booting from cdrom, it says "Kernel panic"
[11:16] <Daviey> dtygel, is it a bad burn?  Try it again
[11:16] <lufis> Daviey: Nah, not that long! I need my fix of new software. Just not too new ;)
[11:16] <dtygel> daviey: it's a good CD
[11:16] <dtygel> daviey: I've already installed dapper with this same CD in many machines. It's the computer which doesn't recognize the CDROM, it seems
[11:16] <Driller> Anyone have any idea of how to list the users on sftpd?
[11:16] <Daviey> dtygel, Is there any hardware in the box that is non-standard?
[11:17] <dtygel> daviey: so I thought about installing from internet, using floppy
[11:17] <Daviey> like debian's netinstall!  yeah i wish i had that
[11:17] <dtygel> daviey: I don't think so. It's an old machine: PIII 700MHZ, but everything is normal
[11:17] <mikewinsdesk> this is the error i get in webmin about ssh: The SSH server program /usr/sbin/sshd was not found on your system. Maybe SSHD is not installed, or your module configuration is incorrect.
[11:17] <dtygel> daviey: it's the first time I'm using it, so I didn't test any other system: there is no system
[11:18] <dtygel> daviey: exactly like debian's net-install
[11:18] <Daviey> mikewinsdesk, did you try re-installing ssh?
[11:19] <menko> hi, when you use sudo/gksudo to open a program, what is the first file which is run before the program is started? I want to set some environment varibles before the application starts.
[11:20] <HumanPrototype> menko, move the executable and make a script in its place to set them then launch the prog
[11:20] <menko> HumanPrototype: I want it to affect all programs.
[11:20] <HumanPrototype> menko, what do you need to set?
[11:20] <mikewinsdesk> daviey, yes i did, and then i check to see if it was installed by trying to install it from the apt-get install under system - package management in webmin and it says package already installed
[11:21] <menko> HumanPrototype: I need to set the input modifier offf, because multiple instances of scim start otherwise.
[11:21] <sgruber> i need help using ndiswrapper
[11:21] <HumanPrototype> menko, could you do that at startup?
[11:21] <menko> HumanPrototype: I want it for the current user, but not for sudo.
[11:21] <mikewinsdesk> daviey, it only has 5 files listed for the ssh though seen here http://pastebin.ca/210612
[11:22] <mikewinsdesk> and there all directorys
[11:22] <mikewinsdesk> so somethings wrong
[11:22] <bigmoe> cappe_: the problem was with the oss mixer but thanks anyways
[11:22] <Daviey> mikewinsdesk, what happens if you type 'ssh localhost' from shell will it allow you to login?  Don't use webmin whilst trying to sort it out
[11:22] <mikewinsdesk> its a remote computer, i dont have access to the shell
[11:23] <cappe_> ok that's good to know til the next question about disfunctional sound comes up
[11:23] <bigmoe> cappe_: do u know any audio and video player that can play anything
[11:23] <anon32> bigme, no
[11:23] <Daviey> mikewinsdesk, there doesn't seem to be alot you can do then!  you really need access to ssh or console to fix it
[11:24] <anon32> bigmoe*: no
[11:24] <bigmoe> cappe_: like mp3 and acc or u can download the plugins
[11:24] <cappe_> bigmoe: vlc supports lots of filetypes... if it doesn't play it all maybe MPlayer for Linux will :)
[11:24] <G0oW> i have a QQ
[11:24] <sgruber> i can't use the 'make' command
[11:24] <Daviey> sgruber, do you have build-essentail installed?
[11:24] <G0oW> how can i edit terminal from "ubuntu@ubuntu" to something else?
[11:24] <mikewinsdesk> heh alright thanks for your help i guess ill have to go drive for a half and hr and fix it
[11:24] <bigmoe> what is a qq
[11:24] <G0oW> a question
[11:24] <cappe_> bigmoe: xmms should support mp3 :) (acc, im not sure)
[11:24] <bigmoe> cappe_: QQ?
[11:25] <akifemre> sgruber: sudo apt-get install make ?
[11:25] <G0oW> how can i edit terminal from "ubuntu@ubuntu" to something else?
[11:25] <G0oW> is my question
[11:25] <spiderworm> lol
[11:25] <Daviey> mikewinsdesk, actually webmin allows you to sue a command shell
[11:25] <bigmoe> cappe_: can i download pluggins for xmms
[11:25] <lampshade> G0oW: the first is your username and the second part is your hostname that you can change in /etc/hostname
[11:25] <andrea> Hi everybody
[11:25] <G0oW> ty, lampshade
[11:26] <andrea> Need help for a laptop install. Can someone help me?
[11:26] <b03nto> quick one here... every time i compile kernel i always got something like this on boot "device-mapper: table: 253:0: linear: dm-linear: Device lookup failed", what's that mean ?
[11:26] <lampshade> G0oW: also, add in the new name of your machine to the /etc/hosts file next to <IP_ADDRESS> like localhost probably is already
[11:26] <Byan> how do I get a USB drive to work? it's on a server.. it works without me doing anything if gnome is installed.., and it might work fine without.. but I don't know where it gets mounted..
[11:26] <cappe_> bigmoe: try http://www.xmms.org/plugins.php
[11:26] <Byan> or maybe I have to mount it
[11:27] <raintheory> okay...   i have an older laptop with a broken CD-ROM///   I want to install xubuntu on it, but how would I go about this?   the ethernet connection is via pcmcia ..   and i cant boot it from usb or anything
[11:27] <lampshade> raintheory: eeeek
[11:27] <raintheory> lampshade, yep
[11:27] <ww2> A question: I've mounted two network drives using the CIFS protocol and the "ro" parameter (read only). The thing I can't u(n)mount them through Nautilus (gives me an error about only root being able to do that). I want to fix that but don't want to have read-write access. How?
[11:27] <dtygel> people: I cannot boot from CD in a PIII machine. In special options I removed "quiet splash" to know what's going on, and I saw that it hangs at: "checking if image is initramfs"
[11:27] <Daviey> Byan, probably /media/x
[11:27] <ww2> I meant "The thing is..."
[11:27] <Byan> Daviey: ok
[11:27] <andrea> I would like to avoid from installing grub on MBR. How can I dual-boot ubuntu & Winshit without touching it?
[11:28] <mikewinsdesk> daviey, yes but when i type in apt-get remove ssh it asks Do you want to continue [Y/n] ? Abort. and i dont get to do any imput
[11:28] <mp3guy> I upgraded to flash 9, but lost my sound, using an audigy 4 with alsa and firefox, any idea how I get it back?
[11:28] <ww2> andrea, let me get a good howto for doing just that... give me a few secs
[11:28] <lampshade> mikewinsdesk: did you just copy paste that command in?
[11:28] <Daviey> mikewinsdesk, i think you can force apt-get hang on let me check
[11:28] <andrea> ww2: thank you, I'll wait :-)
[11:29] <anon32> mp3guy, wait for the final?
[11:29] <mikewinsdesk> lampshade, no i wrote "apt-get remove ssh"
[11:29] <lampshade> hmmmmm
[11:29] <lampshade> mikewinsdesk: are you root or sudo?
[11:29] <Byan> Daviey: no, it's not there
[11:29] <Daviey> mikewinsdesk,  sudo apt-get remove  --assume-yes ssh
[11:29] <wimpies>  does dash support arrays ? I get a syntax error when doing x=( `ls` )
[11:29] <spiderworm> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=279705 <--- any ideas on fixing this?
[11:29] <Byan> lsusb doesm't return it either
[11:29] <mp3guy> anon32, theres no reason it'd work on nearly everyone elses installation and it wouldn't on mine, considering I had no problems at all with flash 7
[11:30] <Daviey> spiderworm, nobody can be bothered to check the link... if you give a bried description people might look
[11:30] <anon32> mp3guy, probably doesn't like some aspect of your software or hardware - but it's hard to pinpoint
[11:30] <mikewinsdesk> daviey, ok i did that, now do i just "sudo apt-get install ssh" ?
[11:30] <dtygel> hi all: what is the reason for booting hanging up while "checking if image is initramfs"?? from live cd...
[11:30] <Daviey> mikewinsdesk, should do
[11:30] <Daviey> mikewinsdesk, if that doesn't work it might be a good idea to remove with the added --purge to remove stored settings
[11:30] <mikewinsdesk> alright
[11:30] <osman> hi guys, not specifically a ubuntu question , just a general linux network question, i have a route on one nic and a cable modem on another, when they are both actiuve the route is replacing my defualt gateway , when I type routem can anyone tell me how to fix my routing table?
[11:31] <ww2> andrea, http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=179902&highlight=Dualboot+Two+Hard+Drives -- sorry for the delay
[11:31] <andrea> ww2, thank you so much, I'll take a look :-)
[11:31] <Daviey> mikewinsdesk, gonna get a cup of tea, be right back
[11:32] <Driller> Anyone know how to set the homedir in pure-ftpd to "/
[11:32] <Driller> oops, set that dir to that only?
[11:32] <DexterF> hi
[11:32] <ww2> andrea, no problem =]
[11:32] <jlacosse> Driller: you mean like chroot?
[11:33] <Luke> I have gnome-screensaver... how do I get it to turn off my monitors backlight when the screen goes blank?
[11:33] <jelly> Hi, I've installed xubuntu in a machine that didn't have pcmcia support.  I'm going to put it back into the laptop now.  What packages should I (re)install or start to make the system install all the necessary software for new hardware?
[11:33] <DexterF> how can I check by which udev rule a device node was assigned? e.g. what rule caused my scsi scanner to get the /dev/scanner symlink?
[11:33] <MystaMax> hello, how do I check a programs version info from the CLI, a program like apache or mysql
[11:33] <osman> MystaMax, --version
[11:33] <Daviey> MystaMax, normmally apache --version
[11:34] <dtygel> daviey: have you seen what happened? when I disabled "quiet" I saw this "checking if image is initramfs..": it hangs at this point. nothing happens. Any clue?
[11:34] <Driller> Does anyone know how to create a user in pure-ftpd, and sets its home dir to "/"
[11:34] <DexterF> MystaMax: dpkg, I think -L. maybe apt-show-version
[11:34] <Code-E> !alien > code-e
[11:34] <jelly> MystaMax: dpkg -s package will show you the package version (which is usually closely related to the program version)
[11:35] <jvai> is bastille needed for dapper's security? any1?
[11:35] <Code-E> Where do I download Alien Package converter. And why is it dangerous to use?
[11:35] <anon32> Code-E, apt-get install alien
[11:35] <Code-E> K
[11:35] <lampshade> or if you feel hardcore strings programname to get the version :)
[11:35] <anon32> it's dangerous because some packages are non-standard
[11:35] <NeoRedux> Anyone feel like taking the time to teach me how to compile and package programs, e.g. Gaim 2 Beta 4?
[11:35] <Code-E> And anon32 what would that do to my system?
[11:35] <DexterF> Code-E: you might get libraries meant for other distros into your system. could fsck up library linking.
[11:35] <anon32> Code-E, break the package pretty much
[11:35] <DexterF> conflicts.
[11:36] <DexterF> orphaned libs in weird locations
[11:36] <DexterF> the like
[11:36] <DexterF> Code-E: in general, I'd avoid if possible.
[11:36] <Code-E> :(
[11:36] <menko> hi, when you use sudo/gksudo to open a program, what is the first file which is run before the program is started? I want to set some environment varibles before the application starts.
[11:36] <DexterF> Code-E: what app are you after?
[11:36] <Code-E> But I wish to install gAIM from the one off the website
[11:36] <Code-E> It only has RPMs
[11:36] <ww2> Is there anyway I can setup Linux to autodetect if a network drive is connected or not? I have a main server here at home (with Windows only)... it provides internet access and I mount two of it's drives here in Ubuntu. I want the drives to be automatically unmounted if the server computer is shutdown. Possible?
[11:36] <Code-E> The one with ubuntu is the crap
[11:36] <mikewinsdesk> daviey, ok back to where i started at, i have it installed but when i press the start button it just refreshes the page
[11:37] <DexterF> huh? there should be gaim in a ubuntu repos
[11:37] <MystaMax> great, thanks osman, Daviey, DexterF, and jelly. the 'packagename' --version didn't seem to work with all. dpkg -s 'packagename' worked out for me. Thanks
[11:37] <NeoRedux> #Code-E, I tried using alien, and if you can figure out how to change .deb versions you can get it working.
[11:37] <nicolas9510> anyone know where the network file is? need to add a dns entry
[11:38] <sheriff_> what cd/dvd burner would u recommend ?
[11:38] <NeoRedux> Gnome Baker
[11:38] <DexterF> dpkg -c lists files of an installed package, right?
[11:38] <sheriff_> NeoRedux: thanks

[11:42] <Paddy_EIRE> !lamp
[11:42] <ubotu> lamp is Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL.  For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP  -  See also the Server CD install menu.
[11:43] <lampshade> grout: hmmm ok, so something is messed up on either the httpd.conf or the php.ini  which is weird cause my default install just worked.  What happens if you do the good old fashioned <?php phpinfo(); ?>  thing? in a .php file?
[11:43] <lampshade> nothing I assume?
[11:43] <spiderworm> lampshade: if he does that, he'll see the php source again
[11:44] <spiderworm> grout: you dont have apache configured correctly
[11:44] <Penny83> Hi all!
[11:44] <sc0tt> hey folks

[11:44] <Penny83> Anyone know how can I backup my Mysql databases ?
[11:44] <lampshade> spiderworm: yeah I figured so much but I was using that as a test anyway  I guess it was kinda redundant
[11:44] <AsheD> anybody know why my Evolution keeps downloading the same files over and over?
[11:44] <Penny83> I messed up my system and I need to do an installation from scrathc...
[11:44] <Zerb_Riss> ARG
[11:45] <Zerb_Riss> can someone tell me how to shutdown X-Windows so I amk left at the command line?
[11:45] <Penny83> Zerb_Riss: try "sudo init 3"
[11:45] <cappe_> Zerb_Riss: sudo init 3 (i think) then control+alt+backspace in X
[11:45] <Penny83> or "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop"
[11:45] <Zerb_Riss> ah okay thanks

[11:45] <spiderworm> grout: did you want php5 or php4 ?
[11:45] <graveson> what software can i use to write my blog offline- i have a blog from wordpress
[11:46] <spiderworm> graveson: open office
[11:46] <ompaul> Penny83, wrong o/s
[11:46] <Penny83> graveson: or install apache,php and wordpress localy :)
[11:46] <Penny83> ompaul: what?
[11:46] <ompaul> Penguin,  the init 3 - we use 1 2 6
[11:47] <mikewinsdesk> how would i generate an ssh key file using ssh-keygen
[11:47] <grout> lampshade: this happens http://grout.ws:85/downloads/test.php
[11:47] <graveson> thanks all, the 1st option is easier for for the time being
[11:47] <spiderworm> grout: did you want php5 or php4 ?
[11:47] <ompaul> Penguin,  the thinking is - if you installed it you want it
[11:47] <ompaul> Penny83,  the thinking is - if you installed it you want it
[11:47] <Penny83> then, how can i backup my databases (mysql) ?
[11:48] <Driller> Penny83 - you took the question out of my mouth :)
[11:48] <ww2> Is there anyway I can setup Linux to autodetect if a network drive is connected or not? I have a main server here at home (with Windows only)... it provides internet access and I mount two of it's drives here in Ubuntu. I want the drives to be automatically unmounted if the server computer is shutdown. Possible?
[11:48] <Penny83> ompaul: I need to reinstall ubuntu, i can't understanding you :) Driller: good ;)
[11:48] <spiderworm> grout: did you want php5 or php4 ? <--- third time I'm asking you, this shouldn't be hard
[11:48] <Driller> Can anyone answer Penny83
[11:48] <Penny83> Driller: out of your fingers :D
[11:49] <lampshade> grout: if you got that, if that's your webpage, php is working
[11:49] <Driller> penny's question? (sorry, polish keyboard)
[11:49] <grout> spiderworm php5, sorry
[11:49] <lampshade> otherwise phpinfo wouldn't work obviously... so there must be something else wrong with your hello world, not your setup
[11:49] <grout> lampshade: let me show you my hello world
[11:49] <spiderworm> grout: do you have this package installed: libapache2-mod-php5 ?
[11:49] <ompaul> Penny83,  the thinking is - if you installed it you want it - we use only init 1, single 2, full multi user with X, 6 reboot and 0 for stop
[11:50] <menko> hi, when you use sudo/gksudo to open a program, what is the first file which is run before the program is started? I want to set some environment varibles before the application starts.
[11:50] <sheriff_> is there any subtitle application?
[11:50] <Penny83> ompaul: I'm think you're talking with the wrong person :D
[11:51] <grout> spiderworm: how can i tell?
[11:51] <spiderworm> grout: lampshade is right, it appears php is working... like he says, post the source of your hello world app somewhere
[11:51] <dufresnep> flash9 beta, does someone else get looping sound?
[11:51] <grout> ok thanks guys
[11:51] <ompaul> this was the cause: <Penny83> Zerb_Riss: try "sudo init 3"
[11:52] <spiderworm> lampshade: he probably didnt have <? ?> around his code in his hello world app
[11:52] <dtygel> ok folks: nobody can help me there, so let me do a second question, maybe easier:
[11:52] <dtygel> s there a way to install ubuntu in a machine through LAN from ANOTHER machine which has ubuntu installed?
[11:52] <Penny83> ompaul: oh, yes, I'm sorry
[11:53] <Sp4rKy> please, where can i get the patch applied to Ubuntu kernel  ?
[11:53] <motin__> dtygel: the alternative cd can do a lot of magic - for instance probably install like you want
[11:53] <b03nto> anyone know where to get bd-claim.patch for 2.6.18 ?
[11:53] <motin__> i am getting rather annoyed
[11:53] <dtygel> motin: nothing installs from the CD
[11:54] <dtygel> motin: as I said before, it hangs in the line "checking if image is initram.."
[11:54] <Daviey> mikewinsdesk, ssh-keygen is for logging in without passwords
[11:54] <Penny83> I've a question for you guys... I'm running 6.06 boot cd, i've changed /etc/apt/sources.list pointing to edgy archives and in terminal i've typed "apt-get install ubiquity". Ubiquity now is installed, if i try to install a new system I will install an edgy system ?
[11:54] <spiderworm> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=279705 <--- laptop headphones detection issues.... any ideas on fixing something like this?
[11:54] <dtygel> motin: I tried 4 differente CDs (2 with dapper, 1 with beatrix, 1 with breezy): all hang up. Some say simply "kernel panic"
[11:55] <lasindi_lcps> Hi everyone, is there a way to install Sun's Java 1.5 on Ubuntu 64-bit? I cannot find it, even though I have multiverse enabled and it normally shows up on my 32-bit computers
[11:55] <cappe_> dtygel: try cleaning your cd-drive :)
[11:55] <KristeK> help!! Can't install amule on ubuntu server (no desktop gui)
[11:56] <dtygel> cappe: I took this cd drive from another computer: and there it works all right. It's something else.
[11:56] <jaggz-> I'm wondering.. my gnome terminal scrolls really slow
[11:56] <tuxtux> notte a tutti
[11:56] <cappe_> dtygel: try scandisk / fsck the disk.. then try removing your RAM and putting them in again
[11:56] <spiderworm> dtygel: i've gotten that when trying to install ubuntu on older machines, like, 5 years old
[11:56] <apokryphos> lasindi_lcps: have you checked the FAQ?
[11:56] <lampshade> I've run into it on older cdroms that were about to die
[11:56] <jaggz-> anyone know how to speed this up?  In this case I'm using vim, but in general it just seems to update the screen really slow -- I can basically witness the speed of the lines being redrawn
[11:58] <dtygel> spiderworm: indeed, it's an old machine. What can I do then?
[11:58] <spiderworm> dtygel: spend money
[11:58] <^Ocean^> how do i remove the edgy nvidia drivers so it dont conflict with the newer nvidia drivers i have installed ?
[11:58] <dtygel> cappe: the disks are allright: I used them to install ubuntu in other machines, without problems
[11:58] <DexterF> how do I figure which package contains a certain file?
[11:58] <KristeK> Can someone help? amule on ubuntu SERVER?
[11:58] <DexterF> (package not installed yet)
[11:58] <fdoving> DexterF: http://packages.ubuntu.com
[11:59] <DexterF> KristeK: you mean headless?
[11:59] <DexterF> fdoving: thanks
[11:59] <dtygel> spderworm: it's not a personal computer, it's from our small organisation. We don't have this money for a upgrade. Barely for salaries! :( And I definitely don't want to fall back to windows...
[11:59] <apokryphos> DexterF: ...or install apt-file
[11:59] <KristeK> headless? kind of amule deamon with webserver
[11:59] <KristeK> I don't have the graphical interface
[12:00] <Yggdrasil> is there a way to make a floppy disk automount ?
[12:00] <raintheory> spderworm :   maybe stupid question, but is CD-ROM jumpers set right?
[12:00] <^Ocean^>  I installed the linux drivers from nvidia but ubuntu insists on loading its stalk nvidia drivers on boot time,  so X wont start at boot, i have to rmmod nvidia then modprobe the correct drivers from the /lib/modules/kernelver directory
[12:00] <lasindi_lcps> apokryphos: yes, it says here to install a package that I can't find: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java#head-21b44ff330436e9f387606a337f458a3c2113a3e-2 I'm happy to use free Java if it will let me run Eclipse; it's just that Eclipse appears to depend on Sun's Java.
