[20:35] <IndyGunFreak> JohnTheUbuntuGuy: well, i find that highly unlikely, and would suggest you're the one confused, as opposed to me.
[20:36] <_2> ckosloff sounds like upstream blockage to me.
[20:36] <enzotib> ckosloff, are you behind a router?
 will check goddam router
[20:36] <ckosloff> thanks
[20:36] <Faust-C> ckosloff, heh
[20:36] <guntbert> Fredd: I'm sorry, ubuntu does the whole booting different than most linuxes, I can't find those logs either :-(
[20:36] <Faust-C> yw
[20:36] <Fredd> guntbert: its alright, you want me to get you the exact errors?
[20:37] <JohnTheUbuntuGuy> indyGunFreak the only way to install ubuntu would be to manully format my partition then Install Ubuntu
[20:37] <IndyGunFreak> JohnTheUbuntuGuy: ok..
[20:37] <paolo> Hi *. I have a weird problem. If I try to open a directory with pictures in nautilius it would creates thumbs. But if I open the same dir with dolphin then it would create thumbs and after that they would be visible in nautilius. Does anyone know why?
[20:37] <guntbert> Fredd: I'm afraid they don't tell me too much, just what doesn't work for you?
[20:37] <Faust-C> anyone here use 64bit ubuntu?
[20:37] <JohnTheUbuntuGuy> and I happen to like KDE better than Gnome
[20:38] <Slart> Faust-C: yes
[20:38] <Scorcher> Faust-c: i do
[20:38] <Fredd> guntbert: everything works lol, just not liking to see errors on my system..unless if they are just errors that i shouldn't worry about
[20:38] <Faust-C> Slart, do you have any issues w/ a lack of software?
[20:38] <Faust-C> im wanting to run 64 to fully use my 4 gigs
[20:38] <Sitherae> therealnanotube: How do I get it to scan my whole windows harddrive? Its just scanning files in the immediate directory
[20:38] <Faust-C> but im scared ill lose software like vbox and so forth
[20:38] <Baptiste> does anyone have a solution for this issue: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=184873&highlight=noise ? that noise coming from my speakers is starting to become unbearable...
[20:39] <IndyGunFreak> JohnTheUbuntuGuy: then what is the problem, you were just complaining you had to use Kubuntu over Ubuntu, but you like Kubuntu bette than Ubuntu... make sense, then come back to class
[20:39] <Slart> Faust-C: nope.. only time it's stopped me was with my online banking system..
[20:39] <Scorcher> Falust: is vbox 32 bit?
[20:39] <Slart> Faust-C: but I can run that in 32 bit firefox if I really want to
[20:39] <Faust-C> Scorcher, yes but idk if it has 64 version
[20:39] <guntbert> Fredd: I wouldn't worry too much, as long as everything is working all right...
[20:39] <CarlF1> http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=default&section=all&arch=any&searchon=names&keywords=couchdb  - network timeout - is there a mirror?
[20:39] <Faust-C> Slart, ic, ihmm
[20:39] <JohnTheUbuntuGuy> _2 told me this IndyGunFreak seems very adversarial, and arrogant.   don't let him get to you.
[20:39] <Scorcher> faust: thats ok, just install th 32bit libs
[20:39] <Baptiste> I constantly have some noise in the speakers, and using the wheel even adds some noise
[20:39] <Scorcher> and it will run
[20:40] <dvs_> dd if=/dev/sda2 of=/dev/sdb2 bs=4096 conv=notrunc,noerror   <------ does the block size always = 4096 ?
[20:40] <IndyGunFreak> JohnTheUbuntuGuy: well, _2 is probably a dolt who i could care less about.. and you'll end up in the same file probably
[20:40] <Fredd> guntbert: 1 more thing, will apt-get autoremove have an effect on any of the installed packages that the system and user uses?
[20:40] <Chrizz_> Baptiste: Did you try other soundcard drivers?
[20:40] <Scorcher> faust:  if you lose it in the install just reinstall it with the --force-arcuterture flag
[20:40] <guntbert> !language | JohnTheUbuntuGuy
[20:40] <JohnTheUbuntuGuy> So IndyGunFreak is Arrogant and I won't let him get to me
[20:40] <Scorcher> (speed wrog)
[20:40] <Scorcher> wrong
[20:40] <Baptiste> Chrizz_, no I haven't ; how easy is it to install an other sound driver? (my mb is my soundcard)
[20:41] <Faust-C> Scorcher, ah sweet
[20:41] <Chrizz_> Is there a way to install XP or Vista without formatting ubuntu?
[20:41] <dvs_> dd if=/dev/sda2 of=/dev/sdb2 bs=4096 conv=notrunc,noerror   <------ does the block size always = 4096 ?
[20:41] <JohnTheUbuntuGuy> And I hope I never see IndyGunFreak or you Crazy People good bye
[20:41] <Slart> Chrizz_: you can install it to another drive.. or in virtualbox
[20:41] <Faust-C> Chrizz_, install XP/Vista first then install ubuntu
[20:41] <guntbert> Fredd: imho apt-get autoremove just removes packages that are not needed any more, but maybe some other guy knows better?
[20:41] <IndyGunFreak> JohnTheUbuntuGuy: well that would be a relief, i won't have to add you to my ignore list
[20:41] <koala_man> Chrizz_: if you have a proper xp or vista cd, it should install nicely on a separate partition
[20:42] <_2> dvs_ no.   default is 512
[20:42] <Chrizz_> koala_man: Can i split   harddrive without destroying linux?
[20:42] <_2> dvs_ if you set the bs to your hardware's actual bs you get best preformance.
[20:42] <Chrizz_> Baptiste: Try the restricted driver tool.
[20:42] <emart> chrizz_ yes, of course. you can add a windows partition to your harddrive.
[20:43]  * Faust-C wonders how to clean system of apps that arent being used
[20:43] <koala_man> Chrizz_: you can use gparted to do that from a livecd, but make sure you keep a backup anyways
[20:43] <ASrock> is there any way i can make my own custom disk of ubuntu so after installation it has all the programs i want already installed?
[20:43] <_2> ASrock there is a wiki dedicated to that.
[20:43] <Chrizz_> koala_man: So i have to shut down, boot with a live cd, and spit the harddrive?
[20:43] <Baptiste> well Chrizz_, it doesn't show the sound driver so...
[20:44] <dotech> eject certainly unmounts the device's volume but the device still shows up in "Places" and it clearly isn't ejected because the device hasn't changed into charge only mode.
[20:44] <ASrock> _2: can you give me a link please?
[20:44] <lusepuster_> Hello channel. Any idea why the Aurora GTK engine doesn't work when I install it on Ubuntu Hardy?
[20:44] <haxi_phone> Hi. I have a problem: I connected a ethernet cable
[20:44] <josh__> hey everyone I am in need of some computer advice aside from ubuntu
[20:44] <Chrizz_> Baptiste: Did you update your ubuntuversion to 8.04?
[20:44] <ASrock> haxi_phone:and?
[20:44] <_2> ASrock sorry i don't have the url.
[20:44] <dotech> haxi_phone: I think we all have that problem.
[20:44] <TerminalBash> If you wanna talk to me Call me Bash
[20:44] <ASrock> _2:ok thanks anyway
[20:44] <Sitherae> How do I get ClamTK to scan a whole harddrive and not just the immediate directory?
[20:44] <haxi_phone> To a fresh ubu 5.04 install, but I'm not connected to the network
[20:44] <koala_man> Chrizz_: yes, you can resize a partition that's in use. without destroying the fs, anyways.
[20:45] <askand> is there a way I can choose to use tracker when pressing the searchbutton in nautilus?
[20:45] <deus_> good evening :)
[20:45] <haxi_phone> Dotech: ^^
[20:45] <josh__> I have a 3 year old dell inspiron 6000 I just installed ubuntu on and I plan on using this pc for another year or 2.. it has 2x512mb sticks of ram and Im thinking of upgrading to 2x1gb sticks.. anyone think its worth it?
[20:45] <dotech> haxi_phone: Check if your Ethernet device was loaded properly with lspci.
[20:46] <deus_> Ive got a bit of a weird problem: Some programs in my newly installed ubuntu environment will pause running when Im not moving the mouse. One of them is for example the update-manager.
[20:46] <ASrock> josh__:what cpu?
[20:46] <haxi_phone> Josh: im actually running ubu on a inspiron 4000
[20:46] <koala_man> josh__: it kind of depends what you use it for, but I probably wouldn't bother
[20:46] <josh__> its 1 .73 ghz pentium 4
[20:46] <deus_> any ideas how thats possible? I've looked at power saving settings, but even if i turn all the settings of the problem remains the same
[20:46] <josh__> I just use it for basic functions for school
[20:46] <ASrock> josh__i had ubuntu running on a dimension 4700 which i upgraded to 3gb RAM and it had a p4 2.79ghz
[20:47] <josh__> did you see a significant increase in performance due to upgraded ram?
[20:47] <ASrock> josh__: its probably worth it considering u can probably get 2gb ram for like 20 bucks
[20:47] <haxi_phone> Dotech: lspci gives me ethernet controler intel corp etc etc ethernet pro 100
[20:47] <josh__> I just dont know if the computer will still be bottlenecked due to the processor
[20:47] <josh__> yea from dell its like 50 bucks
[20:48] <josh__> im sure newegg would be cheaper
[20:48] <ASrock> josh__:http://www.newegg.com
[20:48] <josh__> yayea of course
[20:48] <josh__> I love newegg
[20:48] <dotech> haxi_phone: If you are connecting to that device then the problem lies within your network configuration.
[20:48] <mrklean> Does anyone happen to know where Deluge stores its torrent files?
[20:48] <IndyGunFreak> josh__: a ram upgrade, almost always will result in a performance increase(unless you have some other underlying hardware problem)
[20:48] <josh__> I just need to find out what kind of ram is compatible with this sucker
[20:48] <Spartaco2011> Hello everyone
[20:48] <IndyGunFreak> josh__: well, look at your model on Dell's laptop.
[20:49] <rochioo> ablas español??

[20:49] <ikonia> !es | rochioo
[20:49] <TerminalBash> I am using a Dell Inspirion 6000 too Running Ubuntu
[20:49] <josh__> nice
[20:49] <deus_> anyone any idea why the update-manager pauses its updates unless a mouse is hovering over the screen?
[20:49] <josh__> how much memory do you have?
[20:49] <haxi_phone> Dotech: and that means? The ethernet is eth0 right? Gnome inet manager only gimme device lo
[20:49] <IndyGunFreak> josh__: is that a laptop or a desktop?
[20:49] <ikonia> josh__: how much ram do you have
[20:50] <josh__> laptop
[20:50] <josh__> 1gb ram
[20:50] <TerminalBash> I have 59.5 MB'S Left
[20:50] <josh__> 2x512
[20:50] <ASrock> josh__:pc24200 ddr2 ram
[20:50] <ikonia> josh__: thats plenty
[20:50] <_2> ok fellows i'm out.   shalom !
[20:50] <josh__> asrock where did you find that?
[20:50] <mrklean> Does anyone happen to know where Deluge stores its torrent files?
[20:50] <josh__> dells website?
[20:50] <kc8pxy> preseed question.   does it matter what order i add my preseed lines?
[20:50] <kcman> i need some help with wine
[20:50] <ASrock> josh__:GOOGLE
[20:50] <ikonia> josh__: contact dell if you want ram upgrades, but you have plenty
[20:51] <dvs_> whats in /proc ?
[20:51] <perillux> Should I be able to Suspend and Hibernate?  Because I have not been able to do so since the day I installed Ubuntu.  I've spend a LOT of time trying to get it to work and I gave up.  But now I'm wondering, is it possible?  Or is suspend/hibernate on a laptop with ATI card a lost cause?
[20:51] <ASrock> josh__: just search google for the computer model with RAM behind it
[20:51] <josh__> yea thats what I was wondering if it would make much of a difference
[20:51] <ikonia> dvs_: a virtual file system interface to the kenrel
[20:51] <IndyGunFreak> josh__: looks like it takes PC2-4200 200pin DIMMS... (thats for a Dell Inspiron 6000)
[20:51] <haxi_phone> Detech: any idea?
[20:51] <dvs_> if i was backing up / why would i exclude that ?
[20:51] <ikonia> dvs_: because it's created on boot
[20:51] <TerminalBash> I gotta go i'm gonna go back to the windows side of my computer
[20:51] <IndyGunFreak> josh__: ram will almost always make a difference...  http://search.dell.com/results.aspx?s=dhs&c=us&l=en&cs=19&k=inspiron+6000&cat=all
[20:51] <josh__> thanks gentlemen.. I just dont know if its even worth putting anything into this machine but thank you I appreciate it
[20:52] <dvs_> ikonia:  thatnkx
[20:52] <josh__> especially if its only like 20 bucks
[20:52] <josh__> lol
[20:52] <idk> anyone know how to use macchanger?
[20:52] <Dreadful> have anyone had the problem that when running the "install inside windows" function, you get the error: "Could not access cd, please make sure other applications are not using it..." and know how to fix it?
[20:52] <Spartaco2011> Is there someone that speak Italian?
[20:52] <ikonia> !it | Spartaco2011
[20:53] <IndyGunFreak> josh__: looks like this is it....  http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/category/category_slc.asp?CatId=2267&name=PC4200-DDR2-SODIMM-Memory
[20:53] <AzizLight> is there a way to remove the small red X on the right of each TAB in a terminal so that it only possible to close a tab using ctrl+shift+w ?
[20:53] <ikonia> AzizLight: change the theme
[20:53] <josh__> thank you indy
[20:53] <kcman> i am installing wow bc and when the downloader stops and offers the install option and i click it nothing happens..
[20:54] <Flannel> Dreadful: Try booting to the CD, and checking the CD for defects (its on the initial menu, and you won't have to actually boot Ubuntu).  That sometimes happens if somethign went wrong with the burn
[20:54] <AzizLight> ikonia: I have to change my whole theme?? or can I change the theme of the terminal only? :S
[20:54] <Flannel> Dreadful: or, if you want to assume its wrong, burn again at 4x
[20:54] <ikonia> AzizLight: change the whole theme
[20:55] <AzizLight> ikonia: do you know a theme on which there is no X on each tab?
[20:55] <ikonia> AzizLight: not off the top of my head, check out gnome-look.org
[20:55] <Dreadful> flannel: i did that, and it doesnt find any errors:S
[20:55] <AzizLight> ikonia: ok thanks..
[20:56] <NARKOZ> hi. can any1 help me?
[20:56] <IndyGunFreak> josh__: double check that info, cuz looking at dell's site, its showing that model comes w/ two different types of ram, which doesn't make much sense
[20:56] <ikonia> NARKOZ: if you ask a question we can try
[20:56] <sysdoc> Has anyone in here got FFX 3.0 and Java-Sun6-sun to work?
[20:56] <NARKOZ> i just want to to how connect to the internet from ubuntu 8.04
[20:56] <Flannel> AzizLight: Its a known bug: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=335453
[20:56] <Dreadful> any other tips flannel? :S
[20:57] <kcman> ideas, or is there a room that i should go to
[20:57] <Flannel> Dreadful: Try copying all the files off the CD to a folder (on your desktop or whatever) and then running wubi from there
[20:57] <Dreadful> thx:)
[20:58] <ASrock> how do i compile a .sh file into an executable file?
[20:58] <ikonia> ASrock: you don't
[20:58] <ikonia> ASrock: thts a shell script
[20:58] <KillingVector> ASrock: A .sh is executable if you chmod +x foo.sh
[20:59] <ASrock> kingvector thanks
[20:59] <AzizLight> Flannel: I see, thanks
[20:59] <kcman> anyone in here help me with iwne
[20:59] <kcman> wine*
[20:59] <KillingVector> it's sort of like a .bat file was under DOS
[20:59] <ikonia> kcman: specialist wine support is available in #winehq
[21:00] <kc8pxy> KillingVector:  .. IIRC,  ANY file is "executible"  if you chmod +x :)   even if it's gibberish :)
[21:00] <kcman> ikonia thank you
[21:00] <KillingVector> kc8pxy: Yeah. And just about all of them are even meaningful if you try to parse them as perl ;)
[21:00] <testmycode019> yo
[21:01] <kc8pxy> KillingVector:  you know much about preseeding?
[21:01] <KillingVector> Nope.
[21:01] <RemsSs> hello everybody
[21:01] <RemsSs> i actualy use mplayer
[21:01] <RemsSs> there is an off voice
[21:01] <Ronaldinho> Maza faka
[21:01] <ikonia> Ronaldinho: please don't

[21:02] <ikonia> RemsSs: off voice ?
[21:02] <perillux> Should I be able to Suspend and Hibernate?  Because I have not been able to do so since the day I installed Ubuntu.  I've spend a LOT of time trying to get it to work and I gave up.  But now I'm wondering, is it possible?  Or is suspend/hibernate on a laptop with ATI card a lost cause?
[21:02] <kapu> I have ubuntu server. My home partition is on a raid five. All other partitions are on a raid1. So, I boot from the raid1. I would like to know what the proper boot  procedure for restoring my raid1 from tape would be in the event raid1 goes dead. I need to make a recovery disk?
[21:02] <tritium> perillux: yes, it is quite possible
[21:02] <RemsSs> there is 2 men which speak about the film
[21:02] <AzizLight> Flannel: is there actually a fix for this?
[21:02] <tritium> AzizLight: stay on topic, please
[21:02] <unop> KillingVector, stop dissing perl :)
[21:02] <ikonia> kapu: dead easy - don't
[21:02] <ikonia> kapu: you restore from your other disk
[21:03] <Ronaldinho> Maza faka
[21:03] <perillux> tritium: would you be able to help me because I've had a hell of a time trying to get it working
[21:03] <ikonia> kapu: remove the fault drive, add a new one and sync
[21:03] <Flannel> AzizLight: Theres a patch, I believe.
[21:03] <RemsSs> i know that j is the subtitles
[21:03] <kapu> raid1 can sync? I thought, since it is striping, there is no redundancy
[21:03] <Flannel> AzizLight: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-terminal/+bug/99978
[21:03] <ikonia> kapu: raid 1 is mirroring
[21:03] <tritium> perillux: can't at this moment -- on my way out
[21:03] <kapu> o
[21:04] <kapu> my bad *turning red"
[21:04] <kc8pxy> kapu:  why is your boot partition not raid0? i've never had good success booting to non-raid0 drives.
[21:04] <ikonia> kapu: no big deal
[21:04] <dotech> hmm this must be a bug with Ubuntu
[21:04] <perillux> would anyone please be able to assist me with getting Suspend/Hibernate working on my laptop.  I haven't been able to do it since the day I installed Ubuntu.
[21:04] <dotech> there's no way to eject this usb device
[21:04] <Mez_> türk
[21:05] <kapu> kc8pxy good question, back to the drawing board
[21:05] <ikonia> kc8pxy: non-raid0 ?
[21:05] <vadim> can anybody advise me any good rss reader except liferea and akgregator?
[21:05] <ikonia> kc8pxy: you can boot from a raid 1 device no issues
[21:05] <ikonia> vadim: thunderbird
[21:05] <perlsyntax> I want to do some raw socket in Ubuntu.Do i have to sudo bash then my password to do raw sockets?
[21:05] <kapu> Well, now that I think of it, mirroring isn't all that bad.
[21:05] <ikonia> kapu: it's excellent
[21:05] <eltese> What is the commando to run glx-gears?
[21:05] <kapu> think I'll keep it that way
[21:05] <perlsyntax> if i am right
[21:06] <ikonia> perlsyntax: what are you talking about
[21:06] <Baughn> eltese: glxgears, oddly enough
[21:06] <ikonia> eltese: glx-hears
[21:06] <ikonia> gear
[21:06] <MrElendig> eltese: s/-//
[21:06] <perlsyntax> well i talking about do some raw socket programming.
[21:06] <ikonia> perlsyntax: ok - ?
[21:06] <paolo> Hi *. I have a weird problem. If I try to open a directory with pictures in nautilius it would creates thumbs. But if I open the same dir with dolphin then it would create thumbs and after that they would be visible in nautilius. Does anyone know why?
[21:06] <kapu> thanks guys, have a good day
[21:06] <eltese> How can I check if my video card is prorperly installed?
[21:06] <ikonia> paolo: shared .thumbs dir ?
[21:06] <perlsyntax> ikonia, is that the way i am to do it?
[21:06] <Baughn> perlsyntax: ..yeah, you do need root permissions. Or a suid root executable.
[21:07] <ikonia> perlsyntax: no
[21:07] <perlsyntax> that what i thought
[21:07] <portatil> hey
[21:07] <ikonia> perlsyntax: you don't need to be root
[21:07] <r3c0n> hello, i have newly transitioned to ubuntu after using fedora for a while, but i was wondering whether any of you can recommend a comprehensive guide for apt-get and dpkg.. ive grown very acustomed to yum and rpm any guidance would be greatly appreciated
[21:07] <RemsSs> ok that all right i 've found my command
[21:07] <RemsSs> thinks
[21:07] <eltese> r3c0n: man :)
[21:07] <Baughn> ikonia: To use raw sockets, you do
[21:07] <perlsyntax> really i thought i did
[21:07] <Baughn> perlsyntax: You do
[21:07] <portatil> soy Sandy
[21:07] <perlsyntax> ok
[21:07] <r3c0n> eltese: ?
[21:07] <kc8pxy> ikonia: mebbe i forgot my raid numbers.  my boot partition has needed to always be on a mirrored raid. i thought that was 0. it has a copy of my kernel on each of the drives.
[21:07] <ikonia> Baughn: yes, but he's not doing that, he should program and build as non-root user and run it as root
[21:07] <portatil> Sandy
[21:07] <eltese> r3con: In terminal type "man dpkg" for instance
[21:07] <Baughn> ikonia: Well, he did specifically ask about raw socket programming
[21:08] <paolo> ikonia: maybe ... but I didn't do anything
[21:08] <perlsyntax> baughn, then how do i do it?
[21:08] <ikonia> Baughn: yes, but he should program as non-root, but then run as root
[21:08] <ikonia> Baughn: making the source files as root is pointless
[21:08] <r3c0n> right..
[21:08] <eltese> r3c0n: thats the built in manual...  You do know that, right?
[21:08] <AzizLight> Flannel: ok thanks a lot
[21:08] <ross> i can hear sound but i can't see the video
[21:08] <unop> perlsyntax, though, you should do  sudo -i  instead of  sudo bash
[21:08] <sauvin> ross, what kind of media?
[21:08] <CapaH> Does anyone know?
[21:08] <perlsyntax> now i do
[21:09] <eltese> No one who knows how to check and see if video driver is properly installed?
[21:09]  * Baughn facepalms
[21:09] <ikonia> Baughn: ;)
[21:09] <ross> quicktime
[21:09] <ross> i can't view quicktime media
[21:09] <ross> it has
[21:09] <ross> it just says the file name
[21:09] <sauvin> What are you trying to view it with?
[21:09] <AzizLight> Flannel: one more thing, a noobish question: I downloaded 2 .diff files, how do I apply the patched now? :S
[21:09] <r3c0n> eltese: are you trying to determine whether nvidia or ati driver was installed properly?
[21:09] <ross> it just says "/tmp/geckoz60ily
[21:09] <eltese> r3c0n: nvidia
[21:10] <r3c0n> eltese: one way to ensure you have direct rendering is to do glxinfo |grep rendering
[21:10] <ross> and down at the bottom it just has the time and percentage
[21:10] <sauvin> Another is just to run glxgears :D
[21:10] <r3c0n> indeed
[21:10] <paolo> ikonia: thanks... let me check that
[21:10] <sauvin> ross, what are you using to view these media with?
[21:10] <perillux> eltese: and make sure it says direct rendering: Yes
[21:10] <ross> i don't know..?
[21:10] <kcman> ikonia that room was nothing that or they were just messing with me
[21:10] <ross> how do i check?
[21:10] <ross> i had quicktime installed
[21:10] <Flannel> AzizLight: Youll need to get the source, then apply the diff files with patch (theres probably some GUI tool to do that) and then compile
[21:10] <ross> and it was working fine before but now i don't know what happened
[21:10] <Flannel> !compiling | AzizLight
[21:11] <sauvin> You don't know what command you're using to view media?
[21:11] <ross> so please help me : (
[21:11] <eltese> Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[21:11] <eltese> Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual <- That comes up when I try to run glxgears
[21:11] <josh__> hey all.. I have another question for you.. sometimes when I plug in a usb device such as a wireless mouse or external hdd I need to restart my computer for ubuntu to recognize them
[21:11] <ikonia> kcman: the topic is "21:10 -!- Topic for #winehq: End user/tech support channel for Wine (
[21:11] <josh__> and ideas
[21:11] <CapaH> Does anyone here know how to get sound to work with the screensavers? Skyrocket is supposed to have sound but it si silent when I run it -- anyone nkow what I can do to fix that?
[21:11] <ikonia> kcman: so it is
[21:11] <Baughn> eltese: THen you have no 3d driver installed. What gpu are you using?
[21:11] <kcman> ikonia ok
[21:11] <AzizLight> Flannel: ok thanks a lot
[21:11] <ikonia> kcman: type "/topic" in a channel to see it's topic
[21:12] <eltese> Baughn: GPU beeing?
[21:12] <Baughn> eltese: Graphics processing unit
[21:12] <Baughn> eltese: Like, nvidia? ATI? Intel?
[21:12] <paolo> ikonia: ok... why dolphin can update thumbnails and nautilus can't
[21:12] <eltese> Baughn: Nvidia 8800 GTS
[21:13] <ikonia> paolo: check the permissions ? Nautilus probably can, but it doesn't as the file hasn't changed
[21:13] <ross> anyone...?
[21:13] <Baughn> eltese: Right. You should be seeing a popup suggesting you install restricted drivers..
[21:13] <Baughn> eltese: Whether you do or not is up to you, but if you don't you won't get 3d support, period
[21:13] <eltese> Baughn: I already did that
[21:13] <ikonia> ross: saying anyone is pointles, if someone didn't see your question "anyone" means nothing to them, if someone doesn't know the answer saying "anyone" won't make them know the answer
[21:13] <eltese> Baughn: But it still wont work
[21:13] <ross> ikonia: thanks
[21:13] <barslow> How can i replace Nautilus completely? ive installed Thunar but it seems like Nautilus is still controlling the folders on my desktop
[21:14] <Baughn> eltese: Can you paste /var/log/Xorg.0.log?
[21:14] <eltese> !pastebin
[21:14] <debCarlos> !selftell
[21:15] <eltese> Baughn: http://paste.ubuntu.com/38301/
[21:15] <Gibson44> Hi
[21:15] <rockyrock> guys what are the keys for the Cube?
[21:15] <ASrock> what do i do with a .deb file?
[21:16] <ikonia> rockyrock: ctrl+alt+left/right
[21:16] <ikonia> ASrock: install it
[21:16] <ikonia> ASrock: assuming it's meant for ubuntu
[21:16] <debCarlos> ASrock, dpkg -i file.deb  .... install it :)
[21:16] <tcc_> can somjeone help me change my screen resolution,its only giving me one option yet when first installed i was able to change it to whatever i wanted?
[21:16] <ASrock> oh lol...nvm
[21:16] <barslow> How can i replace Nautilus completely? ive installed Thunar but it seems like Nautilus is still controlling the folders on my desktop
[21:16] <ASrock> wow, linux is easier than windows
[21:16] <CapaH> Can anyone tell me how to get the Ubuntu screensavers to have sound ?
[21:17] <Baughn> eltese: That's actually the exact same setup as mine, except for the screen. Hmm..
[21:17] <rockyrock> ikonia: it doesn't work
[21:17] <ASrock> ...once you figure it out that is
[21:17] <debCarlos> ASrock, of course :D.
[21:17] <sauvin> o.O
[21:17] <Slart> CapaH: sound? they have sound?
[21:17] <sauvin> Define "easier".
[21:17] <rockyrock> ikonia: it just moves to the next desktop
[21:17] <barslow> why does my sound go out since upgrading to 8.04
[21:17] <Baughn> eltese: (EE) Failed to initialize GLX extension (Compatible NVIDIA X driver not found)
[21:17] <_kev> how do i limit user processes?
[21:17] <ASrock> people say linux doesnt have good support, so far i feel ubuntu has way better support than microsuck
[21:17] <Baughn> eltese: Going by that, it's failed to load the nvidia kernel module
[21:17] <ikonia> rockyrock: then the cube isn't enabled
[21:17] <ikonia> ASrock: it's called "microsoft"
[21:18] <Slart> ASrock: no need for name calling
[21:18] <Vooloo> how do I reset my keymap the way it were when I installed ubuntu in metacity? I have screwed up something and my caps lock led doesnt work, and the volume controller is broken
[21:18] <Baughn> ASrock: I figured calling something "microsoft" was enough of an insult already
[21:18] <rockyrock> ikonia: how to enable it>
[21:18] <nikre> barslow, can you go system->preferences->sound
[21:18] <sauvin> Yea, gotta be nice to the pinheads at MacroShaft.
[21:18] <rockyrock> ?
[21:18] <Baughn> eltese: See if lsmod|grep nv prints anything
[21:18] <ikonia> !cube >ro
[21:18] <ikonia> sauvin: please don't
[21:18] <barslow> nikre: yes
[21:18]  * sauvin hides
[21:18] <ikonia> sauvin: it's not big or clever, and it's uncalled for
[21:18] <nikre> does it work?
[21:18] <ASrock> hahaha, sauvin thats the best on ive ever heard
[21:18] <CapaH> Slart: I do not actually hear any sound on any ubuntu screensaver - and would like to :)
[21:18] <nikre> i mean test
[21:18] <_kev> How can i limit the max proc of a user and the hd size they can use to?
[21:18] <eltese> Baughn: nope
[21:19] <Baughn> eltese: After it doesn't, sudo modprobe nvidia and tell me the output. And the last few lines of dmesg after running that.
[21:19] <ikonia> _kev: disk quotas or disk
[21:19] <debCarlos> ASrock, yeah, yesterday i plugged my printer and it just worked :D. In ****** you would have to install driver, restart, restart, restart....
[21:19] <barslow> nikre: right now it does but thats bc i just reset
[21:19] <_kev> ikonia, disk quotas
[21:19] <Slart> CapaH: afaik they don't use sound.. or you mean you can't play music when the screensaver is active
[21:19] <ikonia> _kev: thats right yes
[21:19] <nikre> ok
[21:19] <sauvin> Oh... ikonia, I apologise. I didn't realise i wasn't in my regular channel when I said that.
[21:19] <barslow> nikre:  it seems to go out at random
[21:19] <ikonia> _kev: cpu - you can't really limit like that
[21:19] <Baughn> eltese: Hang on, you wouldn't happen to have upgraded your kernel recently?
[21:19] <tcc_> can someone help me change my screen resolution please
[21:19] <eltese> Baughn: Not loading nvidia_new module; not used in /etc/X11/xorg.conf <- was the message
[21:19] <Slart> !res | tcc
[21:19] <ASrock> debCarlos, darn right....my bluetooth worked flawlessly in ubuntu, windows tried to use it for my internet connection and i had to reinstall a bunch of drivers to get it to work again
[21:19] <Baughn> eltese: ..the heck
[21:19] <barslow> nikre: i've read some stuff in the forums and changed everything to ALSA but that didnt work
[21:19] <eltese> Baughn: I installed ubuntu today so nope ;p at least I dont think so
[21:20] <rockyrock> ikonia: what did u mean by !cube >ro?
[21:20] <ikonia> !cube > rockyrock
[21:20] <ikonia> rockyrock: check the private message from ubottu
[21:20] <rockyrock> ok
[21:20] <eltese> I also got a keyboard problem for anyone who is good at that sort of thing :p
[21:20] <debCarlos> ASrock, Yeah, i had same experience with Vista... before deleting it
[21:20] <Baughn> eltese: Try running sudo depmod -a, and then modprobe it again
[21:20] <nikre> barslow, my situation isnt much different than yours, maybe worse.
[21:20] <crdlb> Baughn: he's using the 'nv' driver
[21:20] <barslow> nikre: so it can't be fixed?
[21:20] <nikre> i get this error : "audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: no element "gconfaudiosink"" and solution available yet
[21:21] <nikre> *no solution
[21:21] <dorito> anyone has experience with gdesklets?
[21:21] <rockyrock> ikonia: can i install Compuz with Avant?
[21:21] <eltese> Baughn: same thing happens
[21:21] <dorito> I am trying to configure the weather on goodweather but It keeps saying N/A
[21:21] <ikonia> rockyrock: compiz is already installed on a default ubuntu 8.04 install
[21:21] <nikre> barslow, afaik cant be fixed :<
[21:21] <dorito> rockyrock : go to #compiz-fusion
[21:22] <Baughn> crdlb: So he is. Hum..
[21:22] <barslow> is there a way to completely remove nautilus? It's still controlling my desktop and folders, when i open media files from my desktop folders nautilus bugs out
[21:22] <debCarlos> !repeat | barslow
[21:22] <Baughn> eltese: crdlb is right. Apparently installing the nvidia driver didn't upgrade xorg.conf correctly.
[21:22] <crdlb> Baughn: which may have happened when the nvidia driver failed to start, so it becomes really hard to debug :/
[21:22] <dorito> anyone has experience with gdesklets? I am trying to configure the weather on goodweather but It keeps saying N/A
[21:22] <dorito> please
[21:22] <ikonia> !away > AzizLight|away
[21:22] <rockyrock> I have nvidia 8500GT card and i downloaded the driver from nvidia.com but i can't install it
 thunderbird isn't working properly with rss for me. Can you advise smth else?
[21:23] <ikonia> rockyrock: the driver with ubuntu should be ine
[21:23] <barslow> ubottu: its a simple question i dont see a reason why noone can answer it
[21:23] <ikonia> vadim: fix thunderbird
[21:23] <Baughn> crdlb: Yes, the driver shoudln't refuse to install based on the contents of xorg.conf
[21:23] <ray_> im ubuntu 8.04 what software alows me to watch tv if no tv tuner card in here wile on internet?
[21:23] <Baughn> eltese: This would be /very/ hard to debug over irc. How do you feel about giving me root access?
[21:23] <Slart> barslow: it's not a very simple question
[21:23] <Baughn> eltese: Needless to say, that's a request you should never say yes to
[21:23] <barslow> Slart: yes it is, just want to know whether its possible to completely replace nautilus
[21:24] <RequinB4> !hibernate
[21:24] <Slart> barslow: well.. if it's easy perhaps you can answer it.. I sure can't
[21:24] <rockyrock> ikonia: no it's not i feel that when i run the Visual Effects the desktop becomes a little bit slow and instable
[21:24] <eltese> Baughn: You mean through a terminal client?
[21:24] <dorito> !gdesklets
[21:24] <ray_> any one?
[21:24] <Baughn> eltese: Well, ssh, but yes
[21:24] <dorito> !goodweather
[21:24] <barslow> Slart: well i can completely remove nautilus, but is there a replacement to manage the desktop?
[21:24] <Slart> barslow: check the forums.. google etc
[21:24] <ikonia> rockyrock: I strongly suggest you don't try to use the nvida.com drivers, the ubuntu ones should be ok from that card from what I'm reading
[21:24] <eltese> Baughn: Sure if you can fix it. I mean if I think your doing anything funky Ill just shut you down ^^
[21:24] <Baughn> eltese: I could probably fix it in about five minutes that way. Of course, I could also install a trojan. I'd promise not to, but.. :/
[21:25] <ray_> any ne?
[21:25] <ray_> any one
[21:25] <barslow> Slart: i have, the forums explain how to replace nautlis for file managing but not for desktop replacement
[21:25] <Slart> barslow: I don't know.. I can't remember what xubuntu and kubuntu uses.. I don't think they use nautilus so I guess there might be something else out there
[21:25] <crdlb> rockyrock: and the driver from nvidia.com is the same one, so it's not going to fix anything
[21:25] <RequinB4> barslow: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/nonautilusplease
[21:25] <Slart> barslow: there used to be something called sawfish.. but that was a long time ago
[21:25] <ikonia> ray_: saying "anyone" is pointless, if someone missed your question saying "anyone" means nothing, if someone doesn't know the answer saying "anyone" won't make them know the answer
[21:25] <rockyrock> ikonia: is the Ubuntu driver better??
[21:26] <RequinB4> barslow: pcmanfm allows you to specify a desktop... most FM do
[21:26] <crdlb> Slart: sawfish was a window manager :)
[21:26] <ikonia> rockyrock: it's better intergrated
[21:26] <ray_> in ubunut 8.04 what software can alow me t watch tv if no tv tuner card while oninternet
[21:26] <kc8pxy> ikonia:  what about ti's cousin, "Someone" ??:)
[21:26] <ray_> ?
[21:26] <Slart> crdlb: well.. I said it was a long time ago =)
[21:26] <ray_> sorry ikonia
[21:27] <Slart> ray_: you don't have a tv-card yet you still want to watch tv? firefox perhaps?
[21:27] <uoaphys> hi, i have an HP inkjet, is there a control panel i can use to manage the printer, see errors, start and stop, reload the print driver, etc?
[21:27] <ray_> slart yes i have firefox
[21:27] <uoaphys> i am having seriously intermittent probs with this printer
[21:27] <RequinB4> uoaphys: hplip
[21:27] <ray_> was woundering any thing like what windows has i seen then on windows
[21:28] <uoaphys> req; just type that at terminal?
[21:28] <rockyrock> ikonia: crdlb: when i choose the "None" Visual Effects the widgets of Screenlets become ugly
[21:28] <Slart> ray_: then it's just a matter of finding a site that sends tv shows over internet
[21:28] <rockyrock> let's say pixlized
[21:28] <Slart> ray_: anything web-based that works in windows ought to work in linux (unless they've been very very stupid)
[21:28] <RequinB4> ray_: what exactly are you trying to do
[21:28] <ray_> slart what i mean is i mean i see on windows sat softwarfe to watch it
[21:28] <perillux> would anyone please be able to assist me with getting Suspend/Hibernate working on my laptop.  I haven't been able to do it since the day I installed Ubuntu.
[21:29] <ray_> RequinB4, i trying to get software to watch sat
[21:29] <ilya_> привет
[21:29] <ilya_> hello
[21:29] <ray_> tv with out a tv tuner card i seen then on windows a lot but not on ubunt 8.04
[21:29] <nikre> i have a request, i have intel ICH5 soundcard. according to this page( https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsSoundCardsIntel ) my soundcard is not supported(tho supported in 7.10). is there any possibility to make it work?
[21:29] <Slart> ray_: what is this software called on windows?
[21:29] <vadim> how do i define what package provides some file?
[21:29] <rockyrock> ikonia: crdlb: but when i choose the Normal mode it's oky. But I don't want to have Visual cuz of slowing down
[21:29] <ray_> not sure seen  lots my friend showsed me
[21:29] <Slart> nikre: perhaps it's supported in 8.04 ?
[21:29] <RequinB4> ray_: mythbuntu?  I've never seen it without a tv card, unless you're describing something completely different than one i'm thinking of
[21:30] <ray_> RequinB4, yes any software based one
[21:30] <ray_> like what windows has
[21:30] <nikre> Slart, only ICH6 is said to be supported according to that page. or may i have got it wrong?
[21:30] <Slart> ray_: go ask your friend then.. because I've never seen any software that lets you watch satelite tv without a tv-card only using an internet connection
[21:30] <RequinB4> ray_: "windows" doesn't "have" anything - its a third party program if it exists
[21:30] <Slart> ray_: unless you mean like vuze
[21:30] <_Garfield_> Hey guys, I get this error after recompile: mkinitramfs-kpkg failed to create initrd image. Anybody any thought
[21:31] <RequinB4> ray_: how do you connect to it without a card?
[21:31] <ray_> RequinB4 yes any 3rd party ones
[21:31] <rockyrock> I want to insall PHP, Mysql, and Apache but i don't know their names in the repos cuz there are so many names that are the same
[21:31] <ray_> RequinB4 on lapy
[21:31] <Slart> nikre: I have no idea.. you're probably right.. I was just asking since you asked about an older version of ubuntu
[21:31] <Flannel> rockyrock: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP
[21:31] <nikre> Slart, Actually, I'd like to know how to reinstall the sound system
[21:32] <rockyrock> Flannel: thnx
[21:32] <matt__> does anyone know how to get JME working in ubuntu?
[21:32] <Slart> nikre: alsa?
[21:32] <nikre> Slart, i've no idea, i'm a beginner
[21:32] <Slart> nikre: I guess you could remove it using apt-get purge and then install it again.. I'm not sure how much other stuff it might take with it because of dependencies though
[21:33] <ray_> RequinB4,  any 3rd party one for ubuntu 8.04
[21:33] <Slart> nikre: why do you want to reinstall alsa? is it broken? do you want a newer version?
[21:33] <nikre> Slart, i had made a prev. installation of ubuntu server and installed gnome with all of its components
[21:33] <Sitherae> I have found a virus on my Windows drive using ClamAV. The file is pagefile.sys. Would it be safe to delete this file while in Ubuntu? or should I boot into windows and delete it?
[21:33] <RequinB4> ray_: No one can help you if you don't describe 1) what program you used on windows or 2) How you connected your sat tv to the pc without a card
[21:34] <vadim> how can i define what package contains needed file?
[21:34] <bifkit> Is it possible to use mdadm to re-assemble a 4-disk ntfs RAID0+1 array without losing the data? Initially setup with mobo fakeraid, I believe.
[21:34] <ray_> RequinB4,  throw internet
[21:34] <Slart> bifkit: possible.. perhaps... practical.. not likely =/
[21:34] <ray_> like what joost dose RequinB4
[21:34] <matt__> I need to use a Java applet called "JME Molecular Editor". I dled Sun Java 6, but I get this message "java and javascript must be enabled in this browser"
[21:34] <Slart> bifkit: lots of important files on that raid?
[21:35] <nikre> and sound used to work in that cfg. but now i reinstalled ubuntu server and installed only needed packages using a shell script in swedcore.net
[21:35] <bifkit> Slart: Any other recommendations?
[21:35] <nikre> now everything else but sound is ok
[21:35] <Ax-Ax> visudo: no editor found (editor path = /usr/bin/vi)
[21:35] <RequinB4> ray_: if you need an external application to see it (such as joost), and they only make it for windows, you might try wine
[21:35] <RequinB4> !wine
[21:36] <cpamoa> I've got a problem to install my lexmark Z25, I'm following this HOW-TO:How to make a Lexmark Z25 work at this address: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=19470
[21:36] <Slart> nikre: I'm not alsa expert.. you might try asking in #alsa... bring some food and coffee with you though.. those guys only check in once a week or so in the channel... but when you do get answers they are usually good
[21:36] <ray_> ok RequinB4
[21:36] <nikre> ok
[21:36] <bF_tYpE> whoś from manila here!!!
[21:36] <bifkit> Slart: It's my storage array.  I kept pretty much everything on it in my Windows setup.
[21:36] <RequinB4> ray_: but... youtube and veoh work fine via browswer
[21:36] <Ictinike> Hello everyone, I was wondering if anyone knew how I could force maximize an app in wine that I currently can't see?
[21:36] <Slart> bifkit: well..start windows and copy the files over to something else.. buy a new motherboard if the old one is dead
[21:36] <ray_> ok RequinB4 got url for veoh?
[21:37] <Ax-Ax> visudo: no editor found (editor path = /usr/bin/vi) what can i do?
[21:37] <qr> has any one else experienced mysterious high CPU usage?  My cpu usage is usually ~0.5-1.0%, but occasionally top will start reporting 50-100% system / user cpu constantly without assigning it to any process.  The machine gets quite hot when this happens, so I believe the CPU is in fact being used.  Has anyone else experienced anything similar?
[21:37] <bifkit> Slart: Windows install is long gone. Part of the motivation to switch to Ubuntu. :)
[21:37] <Slart> bifkit: I was in the same situation a couple of years back.. but then the motherboard was out of production.. I've still got the hard drives in a box
[21:37] <Ictinike> Hello everyone, I was wondering if anyone knew how I could force maximize an app in wine that I currently can't see?
[21:37] <RequinB4> ray_: veoh.com, but in general anything that will work in windows via the broswer (no download programs) will work in ubuntu
[21:37] <cpamoa> with this line :/usr/lib/cups/backend/z35, I've got this error:/usr/lib/cups/backend/z35: error while loading shared libraries: liblexz35printer.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[21:38] <bifkit> Slart: So my best option is to reinstall Windows to make Ubuntu work? :)
[21:38] <Slart> bifkit: hehe.. well.. installing windows is pretty quick.. it shouldn't take more than a day to install, get the raid up and then copy the files somewhere else
[21:38] <cpamoa> but with this one no error:/usr/lib/cups/backend/z35
[21:38] <Ictinike> I have guild wars running fine via Wine, however, I just minimized it, and it disappeared, is there a way to get it back?
[21:38] <Slart> bifkit: afaik yes.. there might be raid-gurus out there that can help you but that's what I'd do
[21:38] <bifkit> Slart: got a Terabyte external drive I could borrow? :)
[21:38] <ivantis> good god, 1350 users?
[21:39] <Slart> bifkit: nah.. but I've got 3 internal ones. =/
[21:39] <Scruffy> no 1349 :)
[21:39] <ivantis> Terabyte drives
[21:39] <ivantis> god, who could use all that space?
[21:39]  * bifkit raises hand.
[21:39] <Slart> bifkit: but those western digitial mybook drives are pretty neat.. you can use it for backup when you're done
[21:39]  * KillingVector filled up 500GB in a few weeks...
[21:39] <ivantis> how?
[21:39] <Slart> ivantis: all the linux distros.. use up so much space.. =)
[21:40] <ivantis> yeah
[21:40] <ivantis> kinda
[21:40] <KillingVector> ivantis: every Iron Chef episode ever broadcast, for starters...
[21:40] <bifkit> Slart: Now if I only had the money to buy one. :)

[21:41] <sysdoc> I have a Java app that keeps giving me an error saying that I need JDK 5.0 or higher. I have JDK 6.0 installed anyone have an idea what I'm missing here?
[21:41] <deus_> is there any reasonable explaination why programs in ubuntu tent to pause or even stop when the mouse is not moving for a little while (1-5 minutes)?
[21:41] <swage99> hello any body today for help?
[21:41] <Ictinike> I have guild wars running fine via Wine, however, I just minimized it, and it disappeared, is there a way to get it back?
[21:41] <Slart> bifkit: some advice for the future.. either go for real raid cards (the expensive ones).. or don't use raid at all.. (or pure software raid). Fakeraid isn't faster, better or cheaper.. it's just more likely to lose your files
[21:41] <Bhavesh> ok, one installation of ubuntu server 8.04.1 , dmraid works , another installation of same version on same hardware gives me error message when I type in 'dmraid -ay'
[21:41] <breize> genius, of course
[21:42] <Glady> is it good to install firestarter and rkhunter?
[21:42] <swage99> any guru out their
[21:42] <bifkit> Slart: Thanks for the tips.
[21:42] <Slart> genius: I would say python would be a reasonable start.. easy to develop portable apps and so on
[21:42] <sysdoc> Anyone familiar with aiotrade??
[21:42] <Bhavesh> nope
[21:43]  * genius brieze thanks what do you think about going to JAV first
[21:43] <Bhavesh> what could possibly be the problem?
[21:43] <genius> *JAVA*
[21:43] <Baughn> Right, fixed eltese's computer
[21:43] <Baughn> ..Now I just need to tell him never to allow anyone the access he gave me. ^^;
[21:43] <dherman> Has anyone gotten lirc working with the pvr150 under hardy?

[21:45] <Guest30824> hi
[21:45] <Ictinike> I have guild wars running fine via Wine, however, I just minimized it, and it disappeared, is there a way to get it back?
[21:45] <cwill747> perillux: did you install using windows?
[21:45] <perillux> ivantis: yes, either one will do
[21:45] <perillux> cwill747: what do you mean?
[21:45] <ivantis> perillux: try pressing the red button in the upper right corner of the screen
[21:45] <Baughn> eltese: And remember, don't give anyone the access you gave me. It's not safe. I did delete my ssh key, though. :P
[21:46] <cwill747> perillux: is ubuntu the only installation you have on your computer? or is it a dual boot. if so, how did you install it?
[21:46] <perillux> cwill747: I had windows XP at first, and then I completely erased it and now I only have Ubuntu
[21:46] <perillux> cwill747: yes
[21:46] <Sitherae> How do I get clam to search in the WHOLE directory and not just the immediate directory?
[21:46] <perillux> cwill747: ubuntu only
[21:46] <cwill747> perillux: what happens when you try to suspend and hibernate?
[21:46] <perillux> ivantis: I've tried doing suspend and hibernate.  I know HOW, it just doesn't work
[21:46] <ivantis> perillux: oic
[21:47] <ivantis> perillux: did it ever work?
[21:47] <perillux> ivantis: no
[21:47] <Bhavesh> i have installed ubuntu server once on one hard drive, and setup FakeRAID using dmraid, and it worked, when i installed same version on aother hardrive on identical setup, it gives me error
[21:47] <cwill747> perillux: have you tried using USWSUSP?
[21:47] <ivantis> perillux: well, i really dont like doing that, i just do lock-screen
[21:47] <perillux> cwill747: either it goes to a black screen and I see nothing and it just stays there.  OR it appears to work, the screen turns off and fans stop moving ect.. but when I resume then it stays at the black screen again
[21:47] <swage99> any one good with ubuntu?
[21:47] <ivantis> perillux: but they dont work on my computer either
[21:47] <Bhavesh> swage99 i am trying to learn :)
[21:47] <ivantis> swage99: what you need help with?
[21:48] <swage99> yes
[21:48] <perillux> cwill747: also, pressing ctrl+alt+backspace does nothing.  I have to do a hard reboot.
[21:48] <cwill747> !uswsusp | perillux
[21:48] <swage99> scanner
[21:48] <cwill747> dang it
[21:48] <ivantis> scanner
[21:48] <ivantis> hmm
[21:48] <swage99> yes
[21:48] <ivantis> what kind?
[21:48] <cwill747> !info uswsusp
[21:48] <swage99> hp scanjrt 7400 c
[21:48] <cwill747> !info uswsusp | perillux
[21:48] <perillux> cwill747: I have tried uswsusp, but I got an error when it finished installing and ran the setup... or whatever it's called
[21:49] <ivantis> ok
[21:49] <ivantis> do you have the driver installed?
[21:49] <swage99> any suggestion please!
[21:49] <ivantis> swage99: do you have the driver installed?
[21:50] <ivantis> swage99: do you have the driver installed?????????????
[21:50] <swage99> no driver for unbutu
[21:50] <jum_> hello how can I switch to the desktop while playing e.g. warsow?
[21:50] <Ictinike> I have guild wars running fine via Wine, however, I just minimized it, and it disappeared, is there a way to get it back?
[21:50] <cwill747> perillux: i'm out of ideas
[21:50] <ivantis> swage99: is it a USB scanner?
[21:50] <perillux> cwill747: thanks for you help
[21:50] <cwill747> perillux: i had the same problem... i had to fix it by a fresh install
[21:50] <swage99> no working with linux
[21:50] <Pirate_Hunter> jum_: you can try ctrl+alt+back & forward arrow keys
[21:51] <cwill747> perillux: hope you don't have to go that far
[21:51] <gaintsura> anyone know what would cause a desktop to be unable to switch workspaces or be unable to have more than 1 workspace?
[21:51] <perillux> cwill747: the error said something about not having a valid swap, somthin like that
[21:51] <ivantis> swage99: what?
[21:51] <ivantis> swage99: working with linux??
[21:51] <cwill747> perillux: do you have a swap disk?
[21:51] <cwill747> XD
[21:51] <Pirate_Hunter> Ictinike: im sure that was a bug in wine, hmm thought they fixed or maybe im confusing it but hey best bet try #winehq
[21:51] <perillux> cwill747: ya, that's what's so weird
[21:51] <swage99>  the interfaces is loss for linux osc scanner
[21:51] <perillux> cwill747: it's not a separate disk, but it's on a separate partition.
[21:52] <jum_> Pirate_Hunter: but this does restart the gdm ??
[21:52] <ivantis> xsane image scanner
[21:52] <swage99> does not find it
[21:52] <ivantis> it doesnt find it huh?
[21:52] <bullgard4> ifconfig prints ath0 and wifi0 entries. What interface is ath0 as opposed to wifi0?
[21:52] <Pirate_Hunter> jum_: no your confusing ctrl+alt+backspace
[21:53] <ivantis> well, ive never used a scanner before, so idk what to tell you
[21:53] <swage99> the scanner hp scanjet
[21:53] <cwill747> perillux: yeah i gotcha. strange...
[21:53] <gaintsura> bullgard4: ath0 is the driver's wireless (your virtual interface) wifi0 is the physical interface
[21:53] <Pirate_Hunter> jum_: try ctrl+alt+back or forward arrow keys and see for yourself
[21:54] <thompa> anyone know how to get flash working in firefox, it was working some weeks ago?
[21:54] <Pirate_Hunter> thompa: if it was it should be working now... ???
[21:54] <perillux> cwill747: ok here's the exact error: "The swap file or partition that was found in uswsusp's configuration file is not active. In most cases this means userspace software suspend will not work for you and you will need to choose (or let uswsusp choose) another swap space. In some corner cases however, this can be what you want.  Continue without a valid swap space?"
[21:54] <bullgard4> gaintsura: Can you tell me please what do you mean by '"the driver's wireless"?
[21:54] <thompa> Pirate_Hunter: it seems youtube is but comedy central no more
[21:54] <Finnish_> How do I restart alsa? Or audio engine?
[21:54] <gaintsura> bullgard4: ath0 is the driver creating a virtual interface to the actual wireless interface
[21:55] <Pirate_Hunter> thompa: huh?
[21:55] <jum_> Pirate_Hunter: oh yes you are right i can change the working space
[21:55] <jum_> i will try in warsow
[21:55] <gerzel> Does anyone know how to get banshee to play .rsn or .spc files or other videogame chip bgm files?
[21:55] <deadite> ya
[21:55] <thompa> Pirate_Hunter: i get a while square on comedycentral.com now since some updates a while back
[21:56] <bullgard4> gaintsura: Why is it necessary to create a virtual interface in addition to the actual wireless interface?
[21:56] <thompa> Pirate_Hunter: i mean it was always working before so i dont know where to start
[21:56] <gerzel> It seems hardest to find a music player these days.  XMMS seems to have bitten the dust (at least in ubuntu land) and there are many options each with their own flaws.
[21:56] <gaintsura> bullgard4: because thats the way the driver was written
[21:57] <jum_> Pirate_Hunter: it doesnt work, is there another possibility?
[21:57] <Baughn> gerzel: I've found that itunes works fine, with wine
[21:57]  * Baughn waits for the shooting
[21:57] <deadite> anyone here?
[21:58] <Pirate_Hunter> thompa: if it was working remove it from terminal by doing purge i.e. sudo aptitude purge [program name] and install it again (might need soft restart ctrl+alt+bckspc)
[21:58] <gerzel> Baughn: Thanks but I'm not really interested in itunes.
[21:58] <bullgard4> gaintsura: Why was the driver written that way? Unnessesary complicated.
[21:58] <gerzel> I perfer more indy media
[21:58] <gaintsura> bullgard4: don't ask me, ask the creators =P
[21:58] <Baughn> gerzel: I said itunes, not itms. YOu can use it with any mp3 files you like.. :P
[21:58] <Athen> any best place to talk to somebody about rebuilding an array ?
[21:58] <Pirate_Hunter> jum_: are you using ubuntu? you telling me holding ctrl & alt than pressing forward arrow keys dont work?
[21:59] <Baughn> gerzel: Well, that's your choice. I've found it incredibly hard to find anything that matches it, despite the general simplicity of the interface
[21:59] <thompa> Pirate_Hunter: i tried that. ive found something on the forums thanks, seems older version of ubuntu works so could be firefox
[21:59] <perillux> would anyone please be able to assist me with getting Suspend/Hibernate working on my laptop.  I haven't been able to do it since the day I installed Ubuntu.
[21:59] <jum_> Pirate_Hunter: i am using ubuntu and of course it does work, but it doesnt when i playing warsow and thats the point
[22:00] <Pirate_Hunter> thompa: try downloading libflashsupport see if that help but what exactly happens when you try surfing a page with flash
[22:00] <thompa> Pirate_Hunter: i think most pages work, its only comedy central which is too bad cause its all i want for this
[22:01] <gaintsura> anyone have a solution to choppy video both and and offline?
[22:01] <Pirate_Hunter> jum_: than it not ubuntu its the game running underwine and most games to that anyway even in window they get first priority and dont allow you to minimise but than i dont exactly know what is your problem
[22:01] <dherman> faster processor/video card
[22:01] <armenb> How do I switch from a kubuntu desktop to a normal gnome desktop?
[22:01] <gaintsura> dherman: 2.62 Dual core turion 64bit + ati x1800...
[22:01] <gaintsura> its not my hardware
[22:01] <Baughn> armenb: Select a different session flavor when logging in
[22:01] <armenb> is there an easy way i can dpkg-reconfigure something to do this?
[22:01] <thompa> Pirate_Hunter: i am going to try old firefox, forums say no more luck since Heron
[22:02] <Baughn> armenb: No, it's a per-user choice
[22:02] <Pirate_Hunter> thompa: aww sorry to hear that than its best to try searching online for an answer if pages like youtube work than there is nothing wrong with flash
[22:02] <shiloh7> i have been reading the forums, does diablo 2 run on ubuntu or do i have to use wine?
[22:02] <armenb> Baughn - I don't think I have anything other than KDE installed..
[22:02] <gerzel> baughn: Mp3s are not the problem.  All music players practically play mp3s, and many have very good sorting arrangments for them.  I'm more interested in how well it organizes my live streaming radio feeds, how well it plays old videogame music from the nes, snes and others up to this current generation, how well its interface works, how much of a procesing footprint it has etc.  I might try iTunes but it isn't what I'm aiming for.
[22:02] <armenb> hrm
[22:02] <armenb> er, I err. It seems I do.
[22:02] <ASrock> im trying to change the splash screen when i boot...i have a file fingerprint.so how do i use it?
[22:02]  * Pirate_Hunter do ppl check the game section in ubuntu forums or the linux game section find games working natevily in ubuntu?
[22:03] <Baughn> ASrock: I sincerely doubt there's any connection. A .so file is a shared library.
[22:03] <gerzel> I don't mean to flame it is just that I have some specific requirments in mind which banshee fills, and if I could get it to fill this last requirment of playing spc files I'd be set
[22:03] <Pirate_Hunter> ASrock: have no clue but there are easier ways to change the splash screen and they are available in synaptic
[22:03] <Baughn> gerzel: It's a rather unusual requirement. You couldn't "prerender" them into MP3s?
[22:03] <ugurr> Hi to all i am trying to work on basic shell scripts and i am stuck about numbers [when i try to use "let" command i get an error look like this (let not found)
[22:03] <tbr281> what can i use to add images to my ipod?
[22:03] <ASrock> Pirate_Hunter: what do i look for in synaptic?
[22:04] <Baughn> gerzel: find . -name \*.spc -exec mp3ify {} \;
[22:04] <perillux> how do I find the path to my swap partition?
[22:04] <Baughn> gerzel: (mp3ify left as an exercise for the reader)
[22:04] <djamel> tbr281, gtkpod or amarok
[22:04] <Baughn> perillux: cat /proc/swaps
[22:04] <armenb> Baughn - I have 4 options...the only GNOME one I have is "Failsafe GNOME".  Shoudl there be a regular "GNOME" option?
[22:04] <Pirate_Hunter> ASrock: lol typing splash or splash screen wouldve given you a list of apps that can do the job but wait a sec if you want something specific
[22:04] <Baughn> armenb: There should.
[22:05] <Baughn> armenb: You might have to apt-get install ubuntu-desktop, but it'Ll show up
[22:05] <armenb> Baughn: How ...
[22:05] <armenb> ahhh
[22:05] <armenb> let me try that.
[22:05] <unop> ugurr, you don't need to use let .. just use vars as normal.  e.g  FOO=9;  FOO=$((FOO+10))
[22:05] <thompa> Pirate_Hunter: no i think flash is the problem cause firefox-2 don't work and it works in other distro
[22:05] <Pirate_Hunter> ASrock: try gnome-splashscreen-manager
[22:05] <armenb> Baughn - that looks like exactly the problem. ubuntu-desktop was not installed.
[22:05] <armenb> thanks
[22:06] <Pirate_Hunter> thompa: if youtube works than I doubt but than....
[22:06] <Athen> any best place to talk to somebody about rebuilding an array ?
[22:06] <thurston> hi. i had my graphics running just fine. i got the driver from the "hardware drivers" installed just fine. but when restarted later, i got some low graphics error message at the start up, adn im not even sure if i configured it properly. now i cant even have my screen resolution higher than 800x600. what do i do? i have an ati radeon xpress 200 video card.
[22:06] <crashsystems> If I recall correctly, a while ago, the encrypted installation feature on the alternate disk was not working for 8.04. Does anyone know if this was fixed for 8.04.1?
[22:06] <ASrock> kk, thanks Pirate_Hunter
[22:06] <jum_> Pirate_Hunter: it is ubuntu :), okay I want to minimize warsow (or any other game) when I play it. But you say that this isnt possible 'cause the game gets a higher priority, did I understand it correctly? If yes, is there any possibility to change the priority?
[22:06] <Pirate_Hunter> Athen: try #ubuntu-offtopic
[22:07]  * Bhavesh is trying ubuntu for the 5th time on 3rd hard drive, let's see if dmraid works witout any issue
[22:07] <RequinB4> gerzel: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=45162
[22:07] <gerzel> Baughn: I haven't found a way to convert them.
[22:07] <Baughn> gerzel: Anything that can play them /should/ be able to turn them into .wavs, at the very least
[22:07] <Pirate_Hunter> jum_: if youre runnign a game in wine check the wine website, this server has its own #wine channel that can help with games and apps running under wine, it might be wines fault
[22:08] <tbr281> thnx
[22:08] <ASrock> Pirate_Hunter: i installed grub-splashscreen-manager but i cant find the shortcut in the menus
[22:08] <Pirate_Hunter> jum_: #winehq
[22:09] <jum_> Pirate_Hunter: sorry I forgot to say that warsow is a linux native game
[22:09] <thurston> >	hi. i had my graphics running just fine. i got the driver from the "hardware drivers" installed just fine. but when restarted later, i got some low graphics error message at the start up, adn im not even sure if i configured it properly. now i cant even have my screen resolution higher than 800x600. what do i do? i have an ati radeon xpress 200 video card.
[22:10] <Pirate_Hunter> ASrock: even knowing i told you to install gnome-splashscreen-manager *sigh* "since i dont mess with splash & I havent got one" open terminal type man and the name of the application you just installed to get instruction on how to use it other wise go to their homesite
[22:10] <hasse-fenja> xpc7426
[22:11] <Pirate_Hunter> jum_: im sure a while ago I posted something about checking ubuntu game section in forums etc
[22:11] <Pirate_Hunter> !games | jum_
[22:11] <Pirate_Hunter> jum_: see if that link helps get info on the game you want
[22:12] <thurston> is my issue an easy fix?
[22:12] <nikre> this is also what happened in my case "By changing the switch "Line Jack Sense" from On to Off the sound came back working", lol, fyi
[22:12] <nikre> linux is still very buggy
[22:13] <Pirate_Hunter> thurston: you there
[22:13] <thurston> yes
[22:13] <xhunter> Hello
[22:13] <cwill747> !hi | xhunter
[22:13] <Pirate_Hunter> nikre: linux aint buggy you are buggy, if something goes wrong its your fault always your fault
[22:13] <pg> hello! im running now the system from cd. i need to install gruba now how i need to do this?
[22:14] <schmick> Hi!. I want to mount a new hdd so it will hold /home structure. /home has already some users and data, but I'm running out of space. Any walktrough available?
[22:14] <thurston> i had this issue earlier, before i reinstalled ubuntu becuase no one could hlep me
[22:14] <rick-h> Just do, the installer auto finds all other operating systems
[22:14] <thurston> and i was getting confused
[22:14] <unop> Pirate_Hunter, that's quite a strong statement :)
[22:14] <Bhavesh> pg you normally need to install linux on hard drive beforeyou should need to install grub
[22:14] <Pirate_Hunter> pg: you need to install ubuntu onto hd so you can install grub
[22:15] <xhunter> ah
[22:15] <ozpowermo> Hi All! I'm wondering if anybody can help me figure this out: I have mounted a fat32 partition in /mnt/data and I'm trying to get it to display on the desktop... if I mount the partition in /media/data, then it will show up on the desktop... So I guess it's a to part question: how can I get the /mnt/data partition to show up on the desktop, and how can I create folder shortcuts to the desktop?
[22:15] <xhunter> Pirate_hunter : Hello
[22:15] <Pirate_Hunter> unop: yah i was told the same thing when i joined lol maybe i should refrain from using it
[22:15] <nikre> Pirate_Hunter, "By changing the switch "Line Jack Sense" from On to Off the sound came back working" how is this not a bug but my fault
[22:15] <hacked_kernel> I have no video playback on hardy, it was working fine I surprised when this happened, how can i investigate to figure out whats happening?
[22:15] <rick-h> The installer self will configure grub the right way, so you can boot into other Linux distro's or Windows
[22:15] <Pirate_Hunter> xhunter: hi
[22:15] <pg> pirate: but.. i have ubuntu on my harddrive, and i have reinstall my windows xp and now the gruba was deleted becuase i reinstall the widnows xp
[22:15] <Slart> ozpowermo: I think it's nautilus that handles the desktop and it makes shortcuts for everything in /media , nothing magic.. just hardcoded afaik
[22:15] <thurston> xp needs to be installed before ubuntu
[22:16] <rick-h> Rule: Windows first, Linux second
[22:16] <xhunter> tux : Salut
[22:16] <xhunter> tux : Mais tu fais koi ici ?
[22:16] <ozpowermo> Slart: can I make shortcuts myself?
[22:16] <thurston> can anyone assist me with my video driver issue?
[22:16] <Slart> ozpowermo: yes you can
[22:16] <rick-h> The Windows boot loader cannot handle Unix-like operating systems, only well, Windows
[22:16] <pg> thurston: i know that, but i have virus on my xp and now i install xp again and i cant run the ubuntu system
[22:16] <nikre> Pirate_Hunter, yes? how is that my fault?
[22:16] <gavi> every now and then my computer logs off to the login screen... i just had a relly nasty one.. it seemed like ram was totally used... it was going to slow and took forever to log back in so i rebooted any sugesstions
[22:16] <Slart> ozpowermo: there is a terminal command, ln -s
[22:16] <Pirate_Hunter> nikre: simple its your fault from having it on but being serious now it might be a bug i dont even know what line jack sense does if you do it might explain why sound was cut off
[22:16] <Slart> ozpowermo: you might be able to do it by dragging and dropping too.. but I don't know the specifics
[22:17] <thurston> im an ubuntu NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOB so i cant help, thats just a rule that i know
[22:17] <sagredo> what does ln -s
[22:17] <unop> rick-h, not really true .. you can configure the windows bootloader to boot a linux image
[22:17] <Slart> ln -s creates a symbolic link, man ls for more info
[22:17] <ozpowermo> Slart: is it permanent? Because I load the partition on boot and I want it to show up on the desktop... if I do ln -s, would it persist after I boot?
[22:17] <thurston> brb........
[22:17] <nikre> Pirate_Hunter, you sound like a racist, i didnt set it on. it is a bug. what are you trying to prove?
[22:17] <rick-h> Never heard of that one, unop
[22:17] <Slart> ozpowermo: yes.. just like any other file, it will still be there when you reboot
[22:17] <DJF5> is there anyway to setup a multitouch interface for mice in ubuntu? like i can hookup 2 mice through usb, and use them togather like a multitouch screen
[22:18] <ozpowermo> Slart: ok thanks Slart!
[22:18] <DJF5> I've done some googling on that topic, but i can't find ANYTHING about it :S
[22:18] <Slart> nikre: where did you get racist from???
[22:18] <nikre> *if something goes wrong its your fault always your fault
[22:19] <hacked_kernel> I have no video playback on hardy, it was working fine I surprised when this happened moreover the sound is working fine (only no video), any help?
[22:19] <Flannel> nikre: Don't worry about it.  It's a bug.
[22:19] <DJF5> nobody?
[22:19] <Flannel> nikre: You should file a bug report at launchpad
[22:19] <Slart> nikre: I don't think racist means what you think it means.. but this is very off topic here.. I will not contonue this discussion

[22:19] <perillux> What does this mean? :  "We don't want Ubuntu to use this as a swap file normally, except when we are hibernating, so add the following to fstab:   /.hibernate.img   swap  swap	noauto,defaults	0	0"         how do I "add something to fstab"?
[22:19] <Pirate_Hunter> nikre: you sound emotional relax, take deep breaths, heck count to 10 and no im not a racist but you are taking my words to seriously and ahvent realised i dont know what is the problem and i precisely said it might be a bug "please dont skim read what i type"
[22:19] <eltese> how do I come to compiz setting screen?
[22:20] <pg> Hello! i install xp first after that i install ubuntu system, but now i resintall my windows xp and i lost my gruba i cant log into Ubuntu
[22:20] <Overand> perillux: gksudo gedit /etc/fstab
[22:20] <Pirate_Hunter> Slart: have no clue where they got racist from
[22:20] <Slart> perillux: edit the file /etc/fstab.. using any kind of editor.. you'll have to use sudo/gksudo though
[22:20] <unop> perillux, /etc/fstab is a file .. you edit it using your editor
[22:20] <aechols> How to I change the default SYSTEM mouse pointer, not the profile settings?
[22:20] <magnetron> !grub > pg
[22:20] <Overand> perillux: but be careful - you can break things doing that
[22:20] <DJF5> @pg, boot up ubuntu live and use grub-installer
[22:20] <RockstarRaccoon> what was the command line web browser again?
[22:20] <Slart> RockstarRaccoon: links or lynx
[22:20] <unop> RockstarRaccoon, w3m too
[22:20] <Overand> RockstarRaccoon: links, elynx, or w3
[22:20] <RockstarRaccoon> thanks
[22:20] <Flannel> DJF5: I believe multitouch X is still in development
[22:20] <nikre> neither will i continue but i want to state such attitude was rude
[22:21] <Slart> !info w3
[22:21] <Slart> !info w3m
[22:21] <Overand> i actually rather like w3m
[22:21] <aechols> Anyone?
[22:21] <Pirate_Hunter> nikre: do me a favour find the post where i was talking with unop and read what i said, if you did you wouldve understood i wasnt serious
[22:22] <Pirate_Hunter> !info w3m
[22:22] <hacked_kernel> pg, boot with the live cd and type in the terminal "grub", then: find /boot/grub/stage1

[22:22] <FloodBot1> hacked_kernel: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[22:22] <Slart> Pirate_Hunter: I just tried.. seems it's installed by default.. it's actually quite nice
[22:23] <hacked_kernel> pg, where x is the id of your hard disk, the first HD is hda
[22:23] <jwires> Hi, I recently got a new laptop and installed ubuntu on it.  itś not recognizing my wireless card (I assume) because no wireless networks appear and it wont even acknowledge that thereś a connection there
[22:23] <\\johny> 132
[22:23] <rick-h> Grub uses a different format
[22:23] <Pirate_Hunter> Slart: yah i tried it once didnt believe it was a text browser, so smooth and running in terminal
[22:23] <eltese> !info compiz
[22:23] <Flannel> jwires: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessTroubleShootingGuide
[22:23] <rick-h> hda is for grub hd(0,0)
[22:24] <jwires> thank you
[22:24] <\\johny> thank you
[22:24] <nikre> i dont want to continue this as slart says
[22:25] <hacked_kernel> I have no video playback on hardy, it was working fine I surprised when this happened moreover the sound is working fine (only no video), any help?
[22:26] <aechols> Does anyone know how to change the default system pointer for Gnome? Not the profile pointer
[22:26] <linduxed> aechols: googled it?
[22:26] <djamel> hacked_kernel, with wich program ? you tried with vls ?
[22:26] <djamel> *vlc
[22:27] <hacked_kernel> djamel, vlc, mplayer, xine, allll
[22:27] <aechols> not getting much
[22:27] <xhunter> mplayer = sucks
[22:27] <djamel> hacked_kernel, you're on a laptop ?
[22:27] <hacked_kernel> yes
[22:27] <aechols> It looks like it could be in the xorg.conf, not exactly cure though
[22:28] <perillux> how do I know where my root partition is located?  I think it's /dev/hda1 or hda2 or something
[22:28] <xhunter>  /ban johny
[22:28] <smatt454> perillux, look in /etc/fstab
[22:28] <smatt454> (fstab is a text file)
[22:28] <VinceN> Can somebody give me a quick idea on how you can Syncronize between a remote server and a local directory?  I have a site that me and other people work on and were always stepping on each others work.
[22:29] <djamel> hacked_kernel, try with the "fn" + display keys
[22:30] <djamel> looks like what happens when you play withe these keys when you send the signal on the external output to use a beamer
[22:30] <DJF5> @VinceN have a look at subversion... you can work with multiple people on multiple files
[22:30] <hacked_kernel> djamel, fn+display keys works :)  the problem when i connect the CRT monitor
[22:30] <hacked_kernel> djamel, thanks, but how did you discover this issue?
[22:31] <VinceN> DJFS: actualy I was hoping I could use something that would just work over FTP since i'm already framiliar with that
[22:31] <djamel> hacked_kernel, i had the problem myself, when connecting to my beamer watching divx@home :))
[22:32] <jwires> is there a way I can just download the driver for my wireless card and install it?
[22:32] <djamel> hacked_kernel, actually the system can duplicate the display but not the video signal (same in zindowz)
[22:32] <jwires> it recognizes the card
[22:32] <jwires> it sees it.. but nothing more
[22:32] <insta> can someone help me configure my wireless?  i'm using ubuntu server, trying to associate to a WPA PSK access point.  i've got wpa_supplicant configured, and it times out trying to authenticate.  i'm using the b43 driver, and can successfully scan for networks near me
[22:33] <hacked_kernel> djamel, well its seems that you are experienced in theses issues, i'll exploit you :)
[22:33] <unop> VinceN, if you use something like a subversion repository .. you avoid conflicts .. if you are working on a file, no one else can make changes to it until you commit your changes
[22:33] <insta> i have /etc/network/interfaces, /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf, and the output of running wpa_supplicant with -dd (detailed) available for pastebin if it will help anyone
[22:33] <unop> VinceN, how you access this repository depends, and you can over FTP too
[22:33] <hacked_kernel> djamel, when playing VCD the video is ok but the audio sooo slowly
[22:34] <Danishza> can anyone help me with configuring an additional internet connection into linux via ethernet from a windows xp machine...i already have one configured
[22:35] <eltese> How do I get the compiz screen up? So I can change appearance and etc :)

[22:36] <larson9999> i went to goodwill today and there were 6 p4s for $15 a piece.  i didn't have a screw driver and the store wouldn't let me open one.  finally they did and they had 1gb ram.  so me and this lady split them 3-3.  i got home and plugged them in and they have 2.66ghz processors!  not bad for $15.
[22:36] <eltese> Flannel: Yeah its already installed... So where do I find it? =)
[22:36] <Flannel> eltese: Under preferences, I believe.
[22:37] <Pirate_Hunter> larson9999: and how is that useful to the community in the heping sense "as well as making me envious of you americans or canadians :'("
[22:37] <Flannel> larson9999: This channel is for support, for general chit-chat, we have #ubuntu-offtopic
[22:37] <cptncrnch> Hi all.  Can someone tell me what the equivalent of "linux-restricted module" is to Fedora?
[22:38] <Flannel> cptncrnch: You'd have to ask the fedora people
[22:38] <hack13_> Can someone help me with mounting an NTFS hdd
[22:38] <jetscreamer> !ntfs-3g
[22:39] <larson9999> Flannel, yes, i'm aware as i've been in this channel for a number of years now.  it's semi on topic because now i have 3 machines to install ubuntu on.  i think it's noteworthy you broke the topic nazi record though.
[22:39] <Danishza> hi ppl...can anyone helpme with the networking..i am trying to get an internet connection from a windws xp machine into linux..how would i configure that on the lan cards..i am a bit confused with ip addressed\
[22:39] <hack13_> I installed that and it is still not working
[22:39] <cptncrnch> Flannel, I am, but no luck there so far.  Thought there were some Ubuntu-converts that used Fedora before
[22:39] <jetscreamer> cptncrnch: like non-free or contrib
[22:39] <Sinnerman> Slart: you around? i reinstalled hardy, and somehow, for the time being, it appears to have fixed the problem. i do get some weird errors though, google throwing nothing useful. that happened only once that i saw though.
[22:39] <insta> larson9999: if you've been in the channel "for years", you know the rules.  don't be a douche and clog it.  it's busy enough as it is

[22:39] <cptncrnch> jetscreamer: what does that mean?
[22:40] <hack13_> I installed that and i still can't get it to mount
[22:40] <hack13_> its giving me an error
[22:40] <jetscreamer> cptncrnch: it means the non-gpl stuff, license problems et al

[22:41] <CostaRicanQuaker> help, i want to install pcbsd, but reading the pcbsd docs i found this "Trying to install on a logical partition will convert your extended partition into a primary partition and erase all logical partitions of your system." what does that mean and how can i install it without it erasing ubuntu's? i have already a gparted livecd and i was planning to resize the partition and create free space to use but i don't want it to either delete the ubun
[22:41] <CostaRicanQuaker> tu partition's data or disable grub from dual booting
[22:41] <cptncrnch> jetscreamer: thank you

[22:42] <jetscreamer> me, i just don't bother, even though i know exactly what larson meant... :)
[22:42] <Bhavesh> would anyone have any idea why would ubuntu have different behavior different time it is installed?
[22:42] <Bhavesh> specifically how dmraid behaves

[22:44] <chill_> anyone know which rar to install for file roller (archive manager) to not give me an error when opening a rar file ?
[22:44] <Slart> Sinnerman: ah.. and all the usb stuff works?
[22:44] <Daisuke_Laptop> chill_: unrar
[22:44] <chill_> unrar or unrar free?
[22:44] <jetscreamer> chill_: iirc winrar3.0 isn't supported by the free version of rar... been a while not sure.. try the non-free maybe
[22:44] <Daisuke_Laptop> ooh, yes i forgot about that
[22:44] <zelrikriando> seems like I finally got flash to work without crashing
[22:45] <Daisuke_Laptop> the not free unrar is the best choice (as much as i hate to say it)
[22:45] <Pirate_Hunter> jetscreamer: I said explain to me cause i was searching a page for someone else so i dont know what he meant or what happened and the rudness is not needed, were trying to help and its a difficult task
 how did you do that?
[22:45] <gausie> ive got a usb external drive that stops my computer booting when its plugged in. what should i do?
[22:45] <AzizLight> is there a way to set the default size of the multi-gnome-terminal window so that when it starts it has this default size?
[22:45] <jetscreamer> Pirate_Hunter: don't worry about it, just keep searching. he just brought up a point that's not important here.

[22:45] <Sinnerman> Slart: yes, as expected. for now. i have to say, that was the case on the previous install too. then after a while, im not sure what happened, or why, but it started getting more problematic. now it's all cool. hope it stays that way.
[22:45] <hack13_> well i got fdisk -l up but don't know what to do next
[22:45] <zelrikriando> Pirate_Hunter, no

[22:46] <zelrikriando> Pirate_Hunter, wrong
[22:46] <insta> does anyone have experience with broadcom drivers and wpa_supplicant?  (b43, et. al)
[22:46] <Bhavesh> gausie i had seen that happened to my laptop, make sure your computer's bios is not configured to boot from USb devices

[22:50] <Wipster> hey all, I was wondering when I hit the vol up and down on my keyboard a big square semi transparent vol thing appears on the screen, now on some bootups in the past I have seen a smaller nice little rectangle one - is there anyway to stop the big one coming up, (I know this is a trivial thing but I am curious)
[22:50] <Pirate_Hunter> zelrikriando: ty
[22:50] <jetscreamer> hack13_: add a line similar to: /dev/hdd1 /mnt/hdd1 ntfs ro,user,auto,gid=24,uid=1001,fmask=0333,dmask=0222 to your fstab... change the hdxx and uid, and maybe the gid if you want.  type 'id' in an xterm to find your id
[22:51] <jetscreamer> make it sdb2 eh
[22:51] <jetscreamer> hack13_: or use those params in a mount command
[22:52] <jetscreamer> hack13_: that is for ro.. if you want rw you need ntfs-3g
[22:52] <hack13_> jetscreamer, i installed that and it is not working
[22:52] <superbobo> slt
[22:53] <hack13_> jetscreamer, it says that i am not allowed to access it
[22:53] <jetscreamer> hack13_: paste your mount command...
[22:53] <jetscreamer> hack13_: that's why all the gid and fmask stuff.. so you can
[22:54] <anom01y> anyone here know why it is that sometimes whenever I reset the computer kmix doesnt correcly show the mixer
[22:54] <anom01y> ie. most of the channels are missing, and I cant control the sound like I would like to
[22:54] <anom01y> its a 50/50 chance I've noticed that it will load correctly or not load correctly
[22:54] <puff> Is there any easy, really simple command-lnie tool to just shove an mp3 onto an ipod?  I don't want to deal with installing amarok, indexing my media files, etc, just to do this right now.
[22:54] <jack> hi, im having trouble with my mic
[22:55] <jack> using ubuntu hardy
[22:55] <anom01y> puff: I use gtkpod
[22:55] <jack> i can get it on my speakers
[22:55] <jack> the mic
[22:55] <anom01y> but, its a pain in the ass to figure out how it works, but it works
[22:55] <puff> anom01y: I used that a few years back, but...
[22:55] <yesi> I am using ubuntu server 8.04, but for some reason I cannot install the nvidia drivers on it because it is telling me that I have some xen stuff built into my kernel
[22:55] <smatt|idle> my nick's already in use, my internet crashed and i had to restart my ipaddress
[22:55] <puff> I just want something that gives me almost-as-easy-as-cp
[22:55] <Daisuke_Laptop> puff: it plays based on the index, so you can't really skip that bit
[22:55] <anom01y> yeah that would be nice
[22:56] <jack> but somehow it doesnt work with ardour or skype or teamspeak
[22:56] <puff> Daisuke_Laptop: That's why I want another tool :-).
[22:56] <kapu> is there a way to specify the owner and group of the output from mkdir run as root? ex sudo mkdir -u ftpuser -g ftpgroup foldername?
[22:56] <anom01y> but you have to convert it to ipods format
[22:56] <puff> Maybe I shoudl download libgtkpod and write my own.
[22:56] <anom01y> which is a stupid format
[22:56] <puff> Hm.
[22:56] <Daisuke_Laptop> you don't need another tool, you need another player.
[22:56] <binaltech> :)
[22:56] <puff> Daisuke_Laptop: Right now, I just need to get one single Mp3 file from my hard drive onto my ipod.  I don't need a bunch of other junk.
[22:56] <puff> Remember the unix philosophy, small, simple, narrowly defined tools?
[22:57] <fole> after I uploaded a patch in launchpad, is it necessary to find a developer who reviews the patch and uploads it for packaging?
[22:57] <Pirate_Hunter> puff: doesnt rhythmbox support ipods?
[22:57] <CRASH69> I am so sorry to ask this but... how is it possible that my numeric pad  ==suddenly== stop working? and more important... how do I reenable it?
[22:57] <Daisuke_Laptop> puff: unfortunately, that goes out the window when dealing with hardware designed for non-unix systems
[22:57] <puff> Pirate_Hunter: Lots of things (claim to) support ipods :-).
[22:57] <puff> Daisuke_Laptop: It doesn't have to.
[22:57] <tcc_> Ive tried just about everything to change my screen resolution,can someone help me step by step please?
[22:58] <puff> Daisuke_Laptop: I know all about how the ipod makes things complicated.  That still doesn't prohibit having a simple little tool to copy an mp3 into an ipod.
[22:58] <insta> is there an easy way that i can see disk usage from the command line?
[22:58] <thinman1189> I can't seem to get my mic to work for wow under wine. I need either that, or vent. any ideas?
[22:58] <puff> Okay, g'night all.
[22:58] <unop> kapu, why not use chown afterwards.   sudo mkdir folder && sudo chown ftpuser.ftpgroup folder
[22:58] <Pirate_Hunter> puff: ok but im sure part of its making its to have ipod support maybe not as much support as you want but it should transfer songs "saying that i havent got an ipod and i dont use rhythmbox even knowing its installed"
[22:58] <Daisuke_Laptop> gtkpod's the best option i've seen, drag it to the gtkpod window, refresh DB
[22:58] <Daisuke_Laptop> all done

[23:00] <jcarter> TheK: thatś exactly what I would like to do tool
[23:00] <Daisuke_Laptop> TheK_: sudo mount address:/shared/directory /mount/point
[23:00] <Daisuke_Laptop> that's all there is to it
[23:00] <vadim> ah, wanted to ask a question. Have anybody ever used slack? My friend tries finding slack package Openoffice in russian? does anybody know where he can find it?
[23:00] <lee98632> hi, guys..PC monitor went and I am on the PS3 I need clean and concise and easy to use script to get java, I am in washigton state and currently under a secer Storm alert, I need to be able to use the weather.coms radar to rack the storm...Please can I get assistance than you
[23:00] <Pirate_Hunter> insta: there is htop which is supposed to be betetr but you really need to read the man pages to make better use of anything in ubuntu but other than that i dont know
[23:01] <Flannel> vadim: You should ask the slackware people
[23:01] <Daisuke_Laptop> i use nfs for pretty much everything - just make sure they're shared on the host side
[23:01] <unop> Zeroyez, use netstat to check if the port is open.  netstat -antp | grep 24690
[23:01] <insta> TheK_: part of what you need is the 'umask'.  check the man pages for mount
[23:01] <lee98632> thanks to no one making a 32 bit version of xubuntu for the ps3
[23:01] <DroYeR> Good night, I have a wifi card Atheros Communications Inc.. AR242x, I installed the version madwifi-nr-r3366 + ar5007 that is what is supposed to operate should I, and I found the connections but I do not connect any solution?
[23:01] <Pirate_Hunter> insta: ask again in 15min and see if someone knows
[23:01] <insta> TheK_: also make sure you have portmap installed and running
[23:01] <TheK_> Daisuke_laptop: The uid is something like 34234234 and the permission is drwx-----
[23:01] <insta> Pirate_Hunter: will do
[23:01] <Zeroyez> tcp        0      0 <IP_ADDRESS>:24690           <IP_ADDRESS>:*               LISTEN
 I understand. thought maybe someone knows cos Slack people do not))
[23:01] <TheK_> Daisuke_laptop: I can't seem to be able to change it..
[23:01] <anom01y> see I just reset the computer, (third time), and now kmix is showing all the levels and inputs that it should. the last two times it didn't.
[23:01] <Zeroyez> 3939/winesercer
[23:01] <anom01y> intermittant
[23:02] <lee98632> I repeat I need assistance, befor I have to shut down due to lighting possibility
[23:02] <Zeroyez> err, v not c
[23:02] <Pirate_Hunter> !patience | anom01y
[23:02] <Thinkbinary> Que tal Alguien de Mexico?
[23:02] <unop> Zeroyez, so your torrent thing is indeed listening on that port
[23:02] <unop> !es | Thinkbinary
[23:02] <Flannel> lee98632:  in theory, sun java is in the repositories
[23:02] <TheK_> Daisuke_laplaptop: My guess is that the server sends uid,gid and the client tries to map it locally. How can I force any mapping?
[23:02] <DroYeR> Good night, I have a wifi card Atheros Communications Inc.. AR242x, I installed the version madwifi-nr-r3366 + ar5007 that is what is supposed to operate should I, and I found the connections but I do not connect any solution?
[23:02] <Thinkbinary> #ubuntu-es
[23:02] <Pirate_Hunter> anom01y, someone may help you if they know how to fix it and im sure that kde isnt there a kde channel on this server?
[23:02] <lee98632> Flannel how do I access it?
[23:02] <Flannel> Thinkbinary: /join #ubuntu-es
[23:03] <Thinkbinary> \#ubuntu-es
[23:03] <ootz0rz> hi everyone. Does anyone know how to get my ntfs drives to auto-mount under KDE4? They do so fine when I switch over to Gnome instead...but under KDE4 I have to click on them in the Device Notifier widget first
[23:03] <TheK_> jcarter: What do you have issues with? the same thing?
[23:03] <anom01y> yeah I will try there thanks
[23:03] <Flannel> lee98632: apt-cache search sun java, find the real name of the package, then sudo apt-get install [package]
[23:03] <TheK_> jcarter: ie permission denied for all users but root because of forced uid?
[23:03] <Flannel> lee98632: do a sudo apt-get update first
[23:03] <Thinkbinary> \join #ubuntu.es
[23:03] <jcarter> TheK: can´t find any way to mount a local share on my Mac in Terminal. It shows up using Places.
 edit /etc/fstap properly
[23:03] <lee98632> I thank you kindly will brb.
[23:04] <Pirate_Hunter> ootz0rz: read my post to anom01y it might help it might not but i dont know how to help you on that
[23:04] <unop> TheK_, the exports manpage has documentation on mapping UIDs
 fstab* I meant of course
[23:04] <ootz0rz> thanks vadim, will take a look
[23:04] <jcarter> Thek: just trying to mount a local share so applications can access the files in it, otherwise i have to copy the files from the share.
[23:04] <ootz0rz> Pirate_Hunter: wasn't aware there was a KDE channel either...ty as well :)
 you're welcome
[23:05] <lusepuster_> Hi channel - my add/remove software and Synaptic have somehow disappeared from my main menu, and I can't get it back there using the menu configuration tool. Any hints as to wjat can be the problem?
[23:05] <l2trace99> anyone running on amd64 here ?
[23:05] <Pirate_Hunter> vadim: if the hds automount in gnome i doubt its a problem with fstab but than i might be wrong
[23:06] <Flannel> lusepuster_: are you still able to use sudo?
[23:06] <mom_> if i run virtual box, how do i get the files i create in a virtual machine to ubuntu?
[23:06] <lusepuster_> Flannel, yes.
[23:07] <Flannel> lusepuster_: does synaptic still work? (alt-f2, gksu synaptic)
[23:07] <lusepuster_> Flannel, but it could still have to do with the fact that I usermod -g'ed myself erroneously to a wrong group and then back to my username?
[23:07] <Pirate_Hunter> mom_: ftp conenction, remote connection etc it is the same as connecting to another pc, however if it is windows in Vbox just do a network connection in vbox to your /home/username
[23:07] <TheK_> unop: thanks
[23:07] <lee98632> !pastebin
[23:08] <Flannel> lee98632: Eh, that seems less likely, but I suppose its possible.
[23:08] <TheK_> unop: that implies that uid, gid mapping only cacn be done on the server and the client have nothing to say, right?
[23:08] <lusepuster_> Flannel, yes Synaptic works just fine
[23:08] <unop> TheK_, yes .. unless the mount.nfs manpage says otherwise
[23:09] <pablo> hola
[23:09] <TheK_> crap
[23:09] <lee98632> flannel http://paste.ubuntu.com/38323/
[23:09] <TheK_> it sucks.
[23:10] <edemkrime1> sorry i,ve missed the answer about sound on minimal installation could you repeat please?
[23:10] <lee98632> flannel tmi  not sure how to filter through it lol
[23:10] <paolo> hi *. Does anyone know what kind of permision I need for .thumbnail so that nautilius can write on it? (it doesn't work for me now)
[23:10] <rick-h> you need sun-jaba6-jre, apt will resolve all the dependencies
 it may be so but still it's always good to check once again
[23:11] <lee98632> oh Ok thnak you
[23:11] <rick-h> so that would make sudo apt-get install sun-java-6-jre
[23:11] <mom_> Pirate_Hunter, you mean just type in /home/user in the toolbar for widows?
[23:11] <unop> rick-h, sun-java6-jre
[23:11] <rick-h> of course :)
[23:11] <unop> !who | rick-h
[23:12] <yesi> I am using ubuntu server 8.04, but for some reason I cannot install the nvidia drivers on it because it is telling me that I have some xen stuff built into my kernel
[23:12] <edemkrime1> yesi:why do you use it
[23:13] <rick-h> yesi, the server comes without X
[23:13] <lee98632> !pastebin
[23:13] <Pirate_Hunter> mom_: no if your running windows vbox has an option to create a network, so just use that and choose the folder as /home/yourusername if not just do it as you would between to pc, give both different ip "well they would have different ips anyway" and connect to each other
[23:13] <paolo> hi *. Does anyone know what kind of permision I need for .thumbnail so that nautilius can write on it? (it doesn't work for me now)
[23:13] <yesi> rick-h: I added fluxbox to the server build so I need the nvidia drivers
[23:13] <lee98632> http://paste.ubuntu.com/38328/
[23:14] <Flannel> lee98632: sun-java6-jre
[23:14] <lee98632> it is uable to be found
[23:14] <unop> paolo, at the minimum ..  u+rw  with your user being the owner
[23:14] <edemkrime1> paolo:
[23:14] <lee98632> okl copying and pasting lol
[23:14] <l2trace99> anyone know if  lib64bz2-dev  available for hardy  ?
[23:14] <unop> !info lib64bz2-dev
[23:14] <unop> l2trace99, ^^
[23:14] <Pirate_Hunter> mom_: I dont think i can explain it any simpler than this since i currently havent got anything installed on my Vbox and if i try to do it now i would have to log off due to adding myself to the vbox user
[23:14] <rick-h> Hmm, yesi, you did run sudo apt-get-install nvidia-glx-new (if you are using a recent nvidia card)
[23:14] <_mn_> If I'm running Kubuntu KDE4 and I sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop , how close would that be to acutally running Ubuntu?
[23:14] <paolo> unop: it still doesn't work
[23:15] <l2trace99> yes and E: Couldn't find package lib64bz2
[23:15] <Odd-rationale> _mn_: exactly the same :)
[23:15] <l2trace99> doesn't intall via apt-get
[23:15] <Flannel> _mn_: You would be.  (well, except your menus would also include KDE things, but those can be cleaned up)
[23:15] <unop> l2trace99, indicates you might not have the particular ubuntu repo enabled.
[23:15] <yesi> rick-h: I was hoping to ubuild it from source.. but I guess I have no choice
[23:15] <unop> l2trace99, also try this prior to the command you are using.  sudo aptitude update
[23:15] <yesi> rick-h: thanks for the help
[23:15] <_mn_> :) cool, thnx
[23:16] <lee98632> eh that didnt work lol
[23:16] <lee98632> http://paste.ubuntu.com/38331/
[23:16] <edemkrime1> how to configure  a sound card
[23:16] <rick-h> Yesi, on Ubuntu it is better to use the ready build debs it is the easiest and you have the biggest chance it will work
[23:16] <paolo> unop: if i erase .thumbnails, nautilius wouldn't recreate it
[23:16] <unop> paolo, i'm not very good with nautilus .. i don't use it or gnome
[23:17] <paolo> unop: ok... thanks anyway
[23:17] <lee98632> Eh how do I get fire fox 32 bit?
[23:17] <lee98632> to run  one 64 bit?
[23:18] <Pirate_Hunter> !firefox
[23:18] <Pirate_Hunter> hmm now what i wanted
[23:18] <_mn_> So can I have both desktop environments?  KDE4 and GNOME and switch back and forth between the two?
[23:18] <Flannel> _mn_: yep
[23:18] <Pirate_Hunter> _mn_: yes
[23:18] <AzizLight> is there a way to set the terminal to start maximised?
[23:18] <Flannel> lee98632: Looks like sun java isn't available for the PS3 yet
[23:18] <Pirate_Hunter> _mn_: you can even have fluxbox, icewm, FVMW and much more if you want
[23:19] <lee98632> grrrrr
[23:19] <_mn_> Cool
[23:19] <ootz0rz> quick question regarding modifying /etc/fstab - in the filesystem if I'm  mounting an ntfs partition, does it work the same way as mount? i.e. I'd use ntfs-3g?
[23:20] <J-_> Is there anything that is similar to Ventrilo that works with Ubuntu which uses the same protocol, etc.?
[23:20] <rick-h> _mn_: When logging in just select session and pick the one you want from the list. You have as much desktop environments as you can fit on your disj,
[23:20] <rick-h> disk*
[23:20] <lysergic25> hey there
[23:20] <unop> ootz0rz, yea, something like.  UUID="XXXX-XXXX-XXXX" /media/mount_point ntfs-3g rw,user,auto,defaults 0 1
[23:20] <mom_> Pirate_Hunter, i just setup a shared folder for /home/user but iam not sure how to access it, maybe i have to restart vm now
[23:20]  * xhunter xhuntuga
[23:21] <ootz0rz> unop, is it really required to add in the UUID? None of the other entries seem to specify it?
[23:21] <ruif13> Hi, i have a dual boot in my pc but i dono why i can't see the windows harddisk anyone can help?
[23:22] <lee98632> ok Seeing that there are ppc that can run 32 bit how aobut a heavy hadded and forcefull apraoch ..and Making it take it no matter waht?
[23:22] <rick-h> ruif13: Grub cannot see it or does Ubuntu self does not see the disk
[23:22] <lysergic25> cos its NTFS probly.. altho most moden OS's cater for NTFS file system recognition
[23:22] <lee98632> tht is to say, How aobut making the system take an alternative way
[23:22] <unop> ootz0rz, it's better if you use a UUID .. as you cannot guarantee that a device name or label will be consistent across reboots
[23:22] <Pirate_Hunter> mom_: no once you do that in vm it will show in your network area in windows "that is if your runnign windows" and access it from there, it will have a globe with the title vbox... I dont knwo if the same applies to running osx "i dont even know if it is possible to run osx but if your using linux you have to remote link or ftp or soemthing else
[23:23] <lee98632> ther are slow no 32 bit libraries availiable for fire fox
[23:23] <ruif13> but i use that before
[23:23] <unop> ootz0rz, to find the uuid of the device.  blkid /dev/sdXX
[23:23] <ootz0rz> unop: ah i see...thanks :)
[23:23] <kristano> help please... i've tried everything... my Nvidia GeForce 6200 is not working with the nvidia driver. I have to use nv... when I use nvidia driver, the screen goes blank immediately upon starting gdm and I can't even switch virtual terminals, it appears to hang except the hard drive keeps going. I've tried reinstalling nvidia-glx, using Envy, and even a full reinstall from my ShipIt Hardy Heron disc (i'm running that now).... nothi
[23:24] <TheK_> jcarter: ping
[23:24] <TheK_> jcarter: did you get it to work?
[23:24] <l2trace99> bah: I am on amd64 the error was because I was missing the 32bit
[23:24] <lysergic25> lol hello kristano, fancy seeing you here,, this is 'sickboy' :P
[23:24] <kristano> hey man
[23:24] <TheK_> jcarter: I had to export as rw and do chmod -R a+r
[23:24] <kristano> do you know if you could help me
[23:24] <TheK_> jcarter: don't ask me why though :)
[23:25] <TheK_> I just realized I hate NFS :(
[23:25] <ootz0rz> unop: using blkid doesn't seem to return anything at all?
[23:25] <lysergic25> on a whim? when you installed the shipit CD did you run "apt-get update" and "apt-get upgrade"
[23:25] <vadim> what package do i have to install to get akgregator?
[23:26] <kristano> I let the automatic updater do its thing
[23:26] <paolo> Hi *. Thisthis is very strange. Gnome is not able to recognize my images unless I rename file.jpg -> file
[23:26] <unop> ootz0rz, you might need to use it with sudo there.
[23:26] <nybuntu08> Does anyone know how to fix GDM that does not display the same resolution with the Gnomes resolution? I have an HDTV monitor I'm using as my primary display.
[23:27] <ootz0rz> unop: yup, that was it, thanks again
[23:29] <kristano> I think i'm going to downgrade to Gutsy; it worked perfectly then :/
[23:29] <tcc_> can someone help  me change my screen resolution please
[23:29] <Pirate_Hunter> nybuntu08: i think there is a way but its beyond my scope to make both change separately but how come you want different res for GDM
[23:29] <kristano> and the frakking xserver-xorg reconfiguration interface is screwed now; wont let me select my resolutions
[23:30] <Slart> paolo: how do you know they aren't recognized?
[23:30] <kristano> I hate it, people are like "oh, let's make this configure itself, and not give the end user any option to do it themselves"
[23:30] <amrik> tcc_: have you tried system -> preferences -> screen res?
 and what are you trying to do?
[23:30] <Dreadful> anyone know what might be the error, when i cant install ubuntu with wubi, i get the error "cant access the disc, close any programs that might be... etc. " i checked the disc for errors, and i tried installing it from hd and running the wubi exe :S anyone have anny idea?
[23:30] <Slart> paolo: they don't open in an image viewer when you double click them?
[23:30] <Pirate_Hunter> kristano: why dont you ask for help with that its much easier and upgrading the OS version is not wise its better to bckup you data and do clean install
[23:30] <tcc_> amrik:yes,screen resolution wont go to 1024,yet it was there when I first installed unbuntu
[23:30] <amrik> tcc_: what resolution do you desire?
[23:30] <paolo> Slart: lots of ways... e.g. nautilius wouldn't create a thumbnail (but it would if I rename it) or I cannot use them as desktop background
[23:31] <amrik> tcc_: and what video card?
[23:31] <paolo> Slart: no, they open eog because I set it up that way (with that extension)
[23:31] <tcc_> amrik:I think it was 1024 by 760 or somethinhg like that?
what videocard do you have?
[23:31] <Pirate_Hunter> kristano: applications>other> screen & graphics or gtk-displayconfig your choice
[23:31] <kristano> Pirate_Hunter: I don't understand. I'm not considering an upgrade; i'm considering a downgrade; that is, a clean install of the previous version, since apparently, this one sucks hard
[23:31] <paolo> Slart: it is very annoyin because I need to rename any .jpg file to something else, if I want to use it as a desktop background
[23:32] <zelrikriando> I have 2 flash plugins in firefox, how do I remove one
[23:32] <tcc_>  ATI Technologies Inc Rage 128 PD/PRO TMDS
[23:32] <Slart> paolo: I get the same problem, that nautilus won't create a thumbnail.. but they still open in an image-viewer when I doubleclick them and I can still right click on them for the special content menu.. but all this gets fixed if I just "touch" the file in some way.. so nautilus thinks it's anew file
[23:32] <Pirate_Hunter> kristano: i was assuming you upgraded for gusty and now wish to downgarde anyway forget it
[23:32] <nybuntu08> GDM is using 1080i and my desktop res is 720P. So I would rather get GDM to load 720P which will make it look better. It's defaulted to a much higher resolution that my monitor doesn't support. If any one has a link post it. Thx...
have you installed driver for your card?
[23:32] <amrik> tcc_: and 1024x768 isnt available under screen res?
[23:33] <Pirate_Hunter> zelrikriando: the same way you would remove any other application in ubuntu
[23:33] <paolo> Slart: I tried to touch the file... and it doesn't work
[23:33] <nybuntu08> I'm using HDMI. I'm using an AT 9550.
[23:33] <paolo> Slart: also can you use them as a desktop background?
[23:33] <tcc_> vadim: not sure if proper driver is installed,been having problems with this card for a while...and no the reso isnt available under screen res
[23:33] <Cope57> "(05:32:09 PM) zelrikriando: I have 2 flash plugins in firefox, how do I remove one" sudo apt-get remove <packagename>
[23:34] <tcc_> though it USED to be,yet I dont know what i did to change that
[23:34] <Slart> paolo: I haven't tried that.. and this only happens once a week or something.. so I have no files to try it on now
[23:34] <paolo> Slart: my problem seems to be worse than yours
[23:35] <nybuntu08> Would I have to edit my xorg.conf?
[23:35] <xai> can anyone recommend a good 8-port sas controller for ubuntu?
you can try to revert changes maybe and then find proper driver and install it once again

[23:42] <Pirate_Hunter> speener: try deleting gdesklets config folder in /home/yorusername "you will have to show hidden folder" and it might either be a folder like i.e. .gdelets or .config and delete inside this folder

[23:42] <sauvin> You didn't abuse.
[23:43] <Pirate_Hunter> Slart: its an installer that install ubuntu from windows onto a physical partition from what ive heard and i had bad experience with it as it has to get ubuntu from the net :/
[23:43] <fixnum> smartctl utility doesn't work for my external hard disk, is there anything else I could use?
[23:44] <Pirate_Hunter> speener: what does terminal tell you please paste it
[23:44] <CostaRicanQuaker> when i first switched to ubuntu from microsoft windows i asked some questions regarding what was better, among the answers i was given was tht i could have xubuntu, kubuntu, etc as different DEs and it wouldbasically be the same, when it came to comparing distros, i was told that ubuntuhad one of the largest growing communities and constant releases, thus i got rid of windows and installed ubuntu with the options of kde, xfce, fluxbox, kde4, gn
[23:44] <CostaRicanQuaker> ome available...now i have to ask within the same newblike guidelines: what's better linux or *bsd?
wow,nothing is configured. But i wanted not that. Go to directory /etc/X11 and see if there is file xorg.conf.backup or smth like that
[23:44] <Cope57> Try them both out and decide which is better.
[23:44] <Slart> Pirate_Hunter: I've read about it on the ubuntu wiki.. it seems it uses the same partition as windows.. but runs separately.. well.. I think I'll keep my real install =)
[23:44] <Flannel> CostaRicanQuaker: You should ask in #ubuntu-offtopic
[23:44] <Pirate_Hunter> CostaRicanQuaker: better is what you believe is best, there is no such thing as best, it depends on people's opinions
[23:45] <speener> Pirate_Hunter: Starting gdesklets-daemon...
[23:45] <speener> Connecting to daemon [  ###        ]
[23:45] <speener> and then it times out
[23:45] <Pirate_Hunter> speener: please past it in pastebin
[23:45] <surger> hello
[23:45] <surger> my first time on xchat
[23:45] <Pirate_Hunter> !pastebin | speener
[23:45] <surger> on ubuntu
[23:45] <speener> oh
[23:45] <Pirate_Hunter> !hi | surger
[23:46] <RequinB4> !best | CostaRicanQuaker
[23:46] <RequinB4> fyi
[23:46] <CostaRicanQuaker> i said better
[23:46] <RequinB4> same principle, though.  The only conclusive answer you're going to get is personal experience
[23:47] <CostaRicanQuaker> for learning purposes. i mean
[23:47] <RequinB4> Though many will try and sell you their exact distro
[23:47] <Pirate_Hunter> CostaRicanQuaker: something go with the flow of what uve bee told
[23:47]  * CostaRicanQuaker moves topic to offtopic

[23:47] <doop> what's the difference between apt-get upgrade and apt-get dist-upgrade
[23:48] <tcc_> vadim:theres a few files like that...heres the first in the list...http://pastebin.com/m1d1d5f1d
[23:48] <Cope57> dist-upgrade is more though, but then again I use aptitude
[23:48] <Pirate_Hunter> doop: dist-upgrade upgrades the os version the other upgrades applications
[23:48] <Flannel> doop: The latter will bring in new packages with the upgrades, the former won't (and some packages may be held back because of it)
[23:48] <Pirate_Hunter> doop: use man to find out more
[23:48] <Flannel> Pirate_Hunter: Thats not really true
[23:48] <UncontrolleD> Hi all, i'm trying to install Ubuntu latest version but i don't know what mount point i should use, any ideas?
[23:49] <Pirate_Hunter> Flannel: yah thats is what i am thinking after reading your post
[23:49] <Flannel> UncontrolleD: Your main partition (or only one) should be /
[23:49] <amenado> UncontrolleD-> you always mount root to  /
[23:49] <fixnum> will anybody please respond to me. I think my hard disk are being fried. I am reading this guide to know if I have that bug. I have installed ubuntu on an external hard disk and running smartctl doesn't work for it.
[23:49] <fixnum> is*
[23:49] <tcc_> vadim:sorry,only one...my mistake,the others had a slight name difference
[23:49] <Pirate_Hunter> UncontrolleD: create a partition and leave mount point as / "thats it move on"
 you tried to install nvidia drivers on your ATI card??
[23:50] <UncontrolleD> thanks alot for the help, i should leave ext3 as default?
[23:50] <speener> it wont paste man
[23:50] <IndyGunFreak> UncontrolleD: yes...
[23:51] <UncontrolleD> i have another partition of 120 gb free, what would be the best utility for it?
[23:51] <tcc_> vadim:read somewhere there was a fix that worked for an ati card to use nvidia driver...didnt make sense but then again I seen stranger when working with bcxxx chipset
[23:51] <Pirate_Hunter> speener: huh anyway what does it say if you summarise it, wheer does it go wrong
[23:51] <ePax> How do i install latest amsn with tk 8.5?
but the repo contains driver for ati card
[23:52] <IndyGunFreak> UncontrolleD: did you create a swap space, and how much space did you give to /  ?
[23:52] <speener> it just hangs...it says it's connecting to daemon but it just hangs
[23:52] <tcc_> vadim:ok so what should I do now?
[23:52] <speener> and then it times out
[23:52] <UncontrolleD> IndyGunFreak the root has 120 gb space, i haven't created a swap partition
[23:52] <IndyGunFreak> UncontrolleD: /root has 120gigs, or / has 120gigs(ther'es a difference)
just try to install ati drivers cos nvidia driver isn't working for sure
[23:53] <Pirate_Hunter> ePax: if youre asking dont bother too much of a headache stick to gimp or emesene with looks exactly like msn>amsn>emesene
 sudo aptitude install xorg-driver-fglrx
[23:53] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: is there a difference?
[23:53] <ASrock> ubuntu is debian based right?
[23:53] <UncontrolleD> IndyGunFreak "/" has 120 gigs
[23:53] <Pirate_Hunter> ASrock: yes
[23:54] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: of course, a lot of people make a /root partition...
[23:54] <IndyGunFreak> UncontrolleD: ok.. so i would take that 120, and knock about 4gigs of that, and allocate it as swap...
[23:54] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: oh you meant it that way, huh, ok im tired and sleepy but wont go bed
[23:54] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: no prob...
[23:54] <ASrock> ok, im downloading a program and it has a list of distros for me to chose from it doesnt have ubuntu but it has debian GNU/linux...do i select debian or do i select other?
[23:54] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: he said he gave 120ggis to /root and i just wanted to clarify he meant / and not /root
[23:55] <Cope57> (05:53:53 PM) ASrock: ubuntu is debian based right? -- supposedly, but it is not compatible with Debian.... go figure.
[23:55] <Pirate_Hunter> speener: have you tried deleting its config file, you could always purge and reisntall again
[23:55] <Pirate_Hunter> IndyGunFreak: ok
[23:55] <doop> how do i get dependencies of a package i want to install using apt?
[23:55] <ASrock> Cope57: i did not get that message
[23:55] <Pirate_Hunter> Cope57: troling?
[23:56] <IndyGunFreak> doop: is the package in the repositories(i'm assuming its an older version)
[23:56] <Cope57> No, not trolling
[23:56] <Pirate_Hunter> doop: it will do it automatically unless your using dpkg
[23:56] <xhuntuga> http://cxg.de/?id=CKuEJxdDeAQXgNW
[23:56] <xhuntuga> seeya all
[23:56] <Pirate_Hunter> Cope57: ok
[23:57] <Cope57> Wuestion was asked about Ubuntu being debian based. I replied it was, but it is not compatible with Debian.
[23:57] <speener> Pirate_Hunter: yeah...and i've uninstalled and reinstalled a couple times
[23:57] <speener> nothing changes...
[23:57] <Pirate_Hunter> speener: ok give me a sec will give you a link form the forums
[23:57] <tim167> how do i copy my home folder to backup, but not copying files that already have a newest version in the destination directory ?
[23:58] <UncontrolleD> IndyGunFreak how do i allocate a 4 gb swap partition on a already ext3 partition?
[23:58] <catalepsic> does anybody use a video player faster than totem
[23:58] <Flannel> tim167: look into rsync
[23:58] <tim167> Flannel, ok i will thanks
[23:58] <IndyGunFreak> UncontrolleD: eh, its probably not that big a deal.....
[23:58] <shiloh7> tim67, i think rsync
[23:58] <shiloh7> oops, sorry someone already said it
[23:58] <IndyGunFreak> catalepsic: vlc is good.... i think its probably the general choice of most.
[23:59] <IndyGunFreak> maybe mplayer
[23:59] <owen1_> how do i know what packages will be added to the repositories by canonical and when?
[23:59] <tcc_> vadim: ok,its installed,I restarted xserver yet still cant change reso
[23:59] <shiloh7> catalepsic, SMplayer is the best imho
[23:59] <Flannel> owen1_: What do you mean?
