[07:37] <catalytic> but i thought those things fly up to the 1000's
[07:37] <Merjin> nvm, found it
[07:37] <Merjin> no thanks to boink
[07:38] <boink> you're welcome
[07:38] <catalytic> http://www.transgaming.com/index.php?module=ContentExpress&func=display&ceid=35&meid=8
[07:38] <catalytic> whats with the hat
[07:38] <phlux> Is it possible to install Ubuntu without it starting gnome first? I put the 6.06 CD in, and it's taking forever to start gnome (which I don't want it to do in the first place)
[07:39] <boink> phlux: that would be a nice feature :)
[07:39] <boink> maybe xubuntu has a live cd too
[07:39] <phlux> I just want to install the damn operating system..not fool around with X.
[07:39] <boink> aaah
[07:40] <phlux> :\
[07:40] <boink> you need to put the gnome bloat on first, then click on install
[07:40] <boink> little odd, I know :/
[07:40] <zyclop> phlux, try the alternate install cd
[07:40] <phlux> that's incredibly stupid..I don't even know if my laptop can handle gnome
[07:40] <boink> is that without gnome?
[07:40] <boink> the alternate CD sounds like a good idea
[07:40] <phlux> I suppose I'll give it a whirl. I'm guessing it's another 700 MB download
[07:41] <ianmacgregor> !alternate
[07:41] <ubotu> The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD.
[07:41] <xst> How do I use my webcam in an MSN chat? I can see that the camera works fine in "Configure>Devices", but nothing happens when I press "send webcam" in the chat window. And when I exit the configuration window, my webcam seems to turn off (its little led is turning off). What to do?
[07:41] <catalytic> xubuntu alternate cd lets u install via text only and works on machines with <198 mb of ram
[07:41] <SuperMiguel> i just brought a a domain name and a hosting, and im traing to configure my /etc/host should i put there my hosting ip or my wan ip?
[07:41] <boink> no
[07:41] <Psychobudgie> did I already mention that the topic is wrong
[07:41] <boink> /etc/host isn't for the internet
[07:41] <catalytic> wan ip
[07:41] <boink> you'll need a dns for that
[07:42] <Psychobudgie> disabling renderaccel in xorg.conf fixes the problem
[07:42] <boink> there are some free dns services on the internet if you don't want to set up your own dns
[07:42] <SuperMiguel> <IP_ADDRESS>       localhost.localdomain localhost
[07:42] <SuperMiguel> <IP_ADDRESS>   server1.example.com     server1
[07:42] <fairramone> Does anyone use OSL2000 as a boot manager?
[07:42] <Psychobudgie> and versions 1.0-9625 & 1.0-9626 of the nvidia driver have it fixed
[07:42] <SuperMiguel> where is says server1.example.com server i have to put my hosting address?
[07:44] <Psychobudgie> it's covered in full on http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=78322 on the official nvidia forums
[07:44] <SuperMiguel> on the /etc/host i have to put <IP_ADDRESS>   server1.example.com     server1, where it says server1.example.com i have to put my hosted webpage?
[07:45] <dr`venom> can someone please help me install ubuntu
[07:45] <boink> SuperMiguel: I just explained it to you
[07:46] <Pegggerr> you anyone else notice that netowrk solutions is down
[07:46] <dr`venom> I installed ubuntu but I get no graphical interface. It says uncompressing kernel .... and then I get a text login option, but no graphical interface
[07:47] <dr`venom> no gnome or kde
[07:47] <rambo3> you installed a server?
[07:47] <boink> there is the server and the desktop version
[07:47] <Crysis> Can I install ubuntu with a core 2 duo and a P5W DH Deluxe and a SATA II H ?
[07:47] <Crysis> HD
[07:48] <dr`venom> maybe I downloaded the server version
[07:48] <boink> double check that
[07:48] <boink> Crysis: 32 or 64 bit?
[07:48] <rambo3> cant tabb complite
[07:48] <dr`venom> you know what, it does say server when I boot up
[07:48] <dr`venom> man
[07:48] <bdragonmsl> Does anyone have any good ideas as to what I should do to get glx to work on my 7900 gt?
[07:48] <dr`venom> thanks a lot
[07:48] <boink> well .. it's a learning experience
[07:48] <Crysis> boink hmm 32 maybe or 64
[07:48] <rambo3> dr`venom you can change it easy
[07:49] <dr`venom> I will redownload
[07:49] <dr`venom> really?
[07:49] <dr`venom> how?
[07:49] <boink> if you don't know, just install the 32 bit stuff then
[07:49] <dr`venom> ok
[07:49] <rambo3> sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[07:49] <dr`venom> oh ok
[07:49] <boink> ta rambo3
[07:49] <Paddy_EIRE> what gstreamer plugins do i need for serpentine to make an audio (wav) cd from mp3s' ??
[07:49] <dr`venom> right after I sign in with the kernel right?

[07:50] <boink> Paddy: why not just use lame to make a wav from mp3?
[07:50] <POVaddct> dr`venom: log in to the shell you mean
[07:50] <Crysis> boink and that will work ? because debian dont work with my hardware :/
[07:50] <boink> Crysis: try it, I would give you even odds
[07:50] <dr`venom> yea, i'm so excited, i've tried suse and now ubuntu: goodbye windows!
[07:50] <boink> but ubuntu is based on debian :/
[07:51] <Paddy_EIRE> boink: want to do it the automated way as in add mp3s to cd playlist for burning the let it convert and burm them...ala Windows Media Player
[07:51] <boink> I see
[07:51] <boink> but lame will make wavs from mp3s as well
[07:51] <Paddy_EIRE> i know :)
[07:52] <boink> and you might want to look into mplayer .. it can do cool things as well
[07:52] <Egyptooo> I am having a problem after installing ati drivers, opengl and direct rendering is working fine alright but when i try to run several apps for example kdetv, opera, aticontrolpanel ...i get Floating point exception, why is that and how to fix it, any help is appreciated:)
[07:52] <boink> I used mplayer/mencoder to redo a crap BBC Radio 3 stream, from .ra into mp3 at a good quality
[07:52] <fairramone> Does anyone know if it possible to put install Ubuntu w/o GRUB
[07:52] <Paddy_EIRE> serpentine audo cd creator said I need the correct gstreamer plugind installed to complete the operation
[07:53] <ks1> fairramone: should be with the alternate i think
[07:53] <ks1> i know you can choose where to install grub
[07:53] <boink> Paddy: ever tried acde?
[07:53] <Paddy_EIRE> !acde
[07:53] <boink> that's a simple ripper from cd
[07:53] <sheriff> anyone can help me?
[07:53] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about acde - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:53] <ks1> sheriff: what is the problem?
[07:53] <ianmacgregor> !abcde
[07:54] <ubotu> abcde: A Better CD Encoder. In component universe, is optional. Version <IP_ADDRESS>-1 (dapper), package size 98 kB, installed size 276 kB
[07:54] <boink> heh .. it's just a shell script
[07:54] <xxxxxx> somebody use ubuntu linux???
[07:54] <sheriff> ksl: m tryng to nstall flash player i mean i did but it's not the latest one
[07:54] <Paddy_EIRE> boink: you are missing the point I got a library of 1000s of mp3s so no good using a cd ripper at this point
[07:54] <drivera90> Does anyone know how much the 80GB iPod goes for?
[07:54] <xxxxxx> my client amule adunanza crash with ubuntu
[07:54] <ks1> sheriff: the latest is not available for linux in general
[07:54] <sheriff> ksl: i mean 6 or 7
[07:54] <ks1> 7 is available with apt-get
[07:55] <boink> abcde (A Better CD Encoder) is a frontend sh script to rip tracks from
[07:55] <boink> a CD, encode them in ogg vorbis or mp3 format, and tag them.
[07:55] <sheriff> i got it with apt-get
[07:55] <dr`venom> oh one small question, does ubuntu play mp3s and dvd's out of the box or do I have to install codecs?
[07:55] <ks1> sheriff: flashplugin-nonfree ?
[07:55] <ianmacgregor> !resticted > dr`venom
[07:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about resticted - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:55] <Paddy_EIRE> trying to make an audio cd (wav) no shell script or cli just Click > add > Convert/burn
[07:55] <boink> dr'venom: I think ubuntu can play mp3's but it can't make mp3's
[07:55] <ianmacgregor> !restictedformats > dr`venom
[07:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about restictedformats - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:56] <apokryphos> ianmacgregor: it's rest[r] icted

[07:56] <ianmacgregor> !restricted > dr`venom
[07:56] <dr`venom> !restricted
[07:56] <statters> lol u missing the R in restRicted
[07:56] <boink> xmms worked out of the box, I didn't need to change anything with it to play any mp3 streams
[07:56] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats  -  See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html  -  But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[07:56] <ianmacgregor> apokryphos: Thank you
[07:56] <ks1> sheriff: have you tried restarting your browser ?
[07:56] <boink> but just modify your /etc/apt/sources.list .. and you have all of the formats you want
[07:56] <ianmacgregor> Yeah, it's this kb.. it types what I type instead of what I want, lol
[07:56] <sheriff> yeh
[07:57] <Paddy_EIRE> boink: xmms pulls down the appropriate codecs when you install it
[07:57] <sheriff> ksl : yeah i did
[07:57] <Egyptooo> ppl does anyone know what could cause a floating point exception error when starting a program?
[07:57] <ks1> sheriff: i'm not sure. shouldnt be complaining unless flash is not 8
[07:57] <sheriff> ksl : i downloaded it yesterday
[07:57] <boink> I was afraid it wouldn't play mp3's under ubuntu
[07:57] <Paddy_EIRE> boink: although it would not be playing them from default install this would be illegal and ubuntu would not exist anymore
[07:57] <ks1> sheriff: let me install and give me a website that isnt working for you.
[07:58] <sheriff> www.youtube.com
[07:58] <boink> Paddy: well .. let's leave that to the lawyers :)
[07:58] <sheriff> ksl : www.youtube.com
[07:58] <dr`venom> well, thanks a lot for your help guys. I really appriciate it :)
[07:58] <Jaksh_eet> where can i look up some apps to play mp3's and mpegs, automatix not ready for edgy amd64 yet
[07:58] <boink> Jaksh: xmms ?
[07:59] <fairramone> ks1: i'm trying to figure out how to install ubuntu on my laptop w/o blowing it up. currently i have a boot manager (osl2000) loaded on the mbr. it lets me switch between two different xp installations on two separate primary partitions. i have a 3rd primary partition waiting for ubuntu, but i'm very nervous that ubuntu is going to f'up my mbr and put grub on it.
[07:59] <rockzman> ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted
[07:59] <rockzman> Can anyone help me
[07:59] <apokryphos> Jaksh_eet: for mp3s amarok and banshee are the best
[07:59] <ianmacgregor> sheriff: youtube flash works in Firefox
[07:59] <apokryphos> Jaksh_eet: for films kaffeine or totem are good
[07:59] <boink> but for 64 bit, which is the best mp3 player?
[07:59] <Jaksh_eet> thanks everyone will try to get them
[07:59] <ks1> fairramone: well with the alternate cd you can choose where to install grub. I dont remember if you can choose not to install it.
[07:59] <apokryphos> boink: considering they all work on 64-bit.....
[08:00] <Paddy_EIRE> when i try to add files in "GnomeBaker" i get "The plugin to handle a file of type image/jpeg is not installed" what do I do there
[08:00] <boink> let's hope so :)
[08:00] <apokryphos> they do
[08:00] <rockzman> Can anyone help me ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted
[08:00] <bdragonmsl> alan,
[08:01] <fairramone> ks1: good idea, i will download it
[08:01] <Paddy_EIRE> can anyone tell me how I can get
[08:01] <designdrem> anyone here suffering with dmraid not working in > 2.6.15 ?
[08:01] <ttrygve> rockzman: I've seen that on my laptop, though I confess I never looked into enough to fix it
[08:01] <Paddy_EIRE> er, oops
[08:01] <sheriff> ksl : ok now it works :) thanks
[08:01] <ks1> sheriff: if you did not agree to the license then it will not work
[08:01] <rockzman> ttrygve, i have one lap also
[08:01] <ks1> everything works fine for me :)
[08:02] <ttrygve> for some reason the ubuntu install set up the wireless on the laptop flawlessly, but I get problems like that when I try to use the wired nic for anything
[08:02] <sheriff> ok it works
[08:02] <rockzman> ttrygve,  i heard it is about rate limit icmp request
[08:02] <fairramone> Also, any ideas of how to get integrated RAR support in the file manager?
[08:02] <rockzman> ttrygve, u got a good solution for usb wireless adapters?
[08:02] <ttrygve> well, that may be for you, but when I encountered it I'm fairly certain it was a lower level problem, as it prevented me from using that interface for anything
[08:02] <ks1> fairramone: install unrar
[08:03] <ttrygve> sorry, I've never tried using one
[08:03] <rockzman> ttrygve, mmm u mentioned wireless :P so u seemed to had experienced tho
[08:03] <SuperMiguel> i have an domain name how can i make my ip that domain?
[08:03] <rockzman> ttrygve, well not about interface communication
[08:03] <RustyJames> hey i just installed edgy beta on my toshiba laptop and i have the problem that the mouse stops working after some time and sometimes also the keyboard is disabled, so i can only use touchpad to restart. anyone got those problems?
[08:03] <rockzman> about ipv4 packets sending
[08:03] <_aasics_> SuperMiguel, who is the Domain Name through?
[08:04] <JanKassens> kann man eigentlich ohne neuinstallation von dapper auf edgy upgraden?
[08:04] <SuperMiguel> godaddy i brough it there
[08:04] <boink> JanKassens: wir sprechen kein Deutsch hier :)
[08:04] <boink> !tell JanKassens about de
[08:04] <JanKassens> i am sorry
[08:04] <boink> no problem
[08:04] <Paddy_EIRE> Can anyone tell me how to burn an Audio CD with minimal effort from a bunch of mp3s, Ideal process would be like WMP10 (Open App > Add mp3s > select burn/before burning takes place the files are converted to wav for use in everyday cd players... Please tell me this is possible??
[08:04] <boink> but to answer your question .. yes, you can do an apt-get upgrade
[08:05] <boink> you need to change your /etc/apt/sources.list
[08:05] <ttrygve> sorry rockzman, I meant I've never played around with a usb wireless setup
[08:05] <richie> Hello, I successfully mounted a partitioned NTFS harddrive by adding it to my fstab, it is labelled hdb2.. the only error i'm having is that it's set to read only, is there anyway i can get around this?
[08:05] <JanKassens> ok, thank you
[08:05] <boink> just change dapper with edgy ... s/dapper/edgy/
[08:05] <gennio> hi all
[08:05] <rockzman> ttrygve, oh :) fine then thanks anyway
[08:05] <SuperMiguel> i have an domain name how can i make my ip that domain?
[08:05] <boink> then man apt-get
[08:06] <boink> SuperMiguel: I won't explain it again, will you listen this time?
[08:06] <sheriff> ksl : well there s no sound how can i fix it?
[08:06] <boink> it's unfair to make people explain the same question more than once
[08:06] <SuperMiguel> i didnt see it
[08:06] <SuperMiguel> ill will pay atention this time
[08:06] <boink> good .. you can't use the /etc/hosts for that.
[08:07] <ttrygve> SuperMiguel: you need a dns server to do that, there are services that will do that for you, though I don't have any to recommend off the top of my head, or you can set up one of your own.  but I think both options are off topic for #ubuntu
[08:07] <boink> the /etc/hosts is only for your local network
[08:07] <boink> you need a dns
[08:07] <boink> you want to set up your own dns?
[08:07] <boink> if not, use a free dns service
[08:07] <boink> you want a static ip number?
[08:07] <SuperMiguel> which one is better?
[08:07] <RustyJames> does someone else have problems with mouse in edgy?
[08:07] <AsheD> I am told QoS would help my internet to run more smoothly
[08:07] <boink> depends, if you want a static ip number or not
[08:07] <Merjin> how do I restart apache?
[08:07] <boink> s/want/have/
[08:07] <SuperMiguel> i want an static one
[08:07] <richie> Can nobody help me with my harddrive issue?
[08:08] <boink> /etc/init.d/apache restart
[08:08] <shadeofgrey> okay guys and gals

[08:08] <boink> SuperMiguel: www.mydomain.com
[08:08] <boink> it's free and a good service
[08:08] <shadeofgrey> how hard is it to dual boot a mnacbookpro running tiger?
[08:08] <Merjin> file not found boink
[08:08] <SuperMiguel> ok thank you :)
[08:08] <boink> what do you have in your /etc/init.d/ ?
[08:09] <SuperMiguel> any way to amke it by my self i have to use blind9?
[08:09] <boink> somelike like apache2 or httpd ?
[08:09] <boink> SuperMiguel: bind9 is one of a few programs to do that with
[08:09] <boink> do an apt-cache search dns
[08:09] <SuperMiguel> is mydomain free?
[08:10] <Merjin> boink > I think it's apache2 -k restart
[08:10] <Merjin> do I need sudo for that
[08:10] <richie> Hello can anybody help me with my harddrive issue? it is successfully mounted but i cannot write, i can only read and execute.
[08:10] <statters> dyndns.org or no-ip.com both work and free as far as I remeber
[08:10] <boink> ok, try that.
[08:10] <boink> dyndns.org and no-ip.com are also very good services
[08:11] <ro1> hello
[08:11] <Merjin> I'm trying to setup a LAMP server but php doesn't recognize mysql_connect() as a function, what am I missing?

[08:13] <Paddy_EIRE> Can anyone tell me how to burn an Audio CD with minimal effort from a bunch of mp3s, Ideal process would be like WMP10 (Open App > Add mp3s > select burn/before burning takes place the files are converted to wav for use in everyday cd players...

[08:19] <Wheelybin> Hello there. I'm trying to update the contents of a folder (owner is root) but it won't let me copy stuff into there. How do I copy stuff into this folder?
[08:19] <xaide> sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:19] <codeprophet> xaide: Radeon mobility 7500
[08:19] <Jaksh_eet> Heavenquake: try sudo restart -n
[08:19] <xaide> ATI
[08:19] <codeprophet> oh duh.
[08:20] <xaide> just install the ATI aceleration XGL
[08:20] <xaide> and configure the server on gdm
[08:20] <codeprophet> Well, does it all work from the repositories?
[08:20] <hid3> Evening everyone. Is there any way to mount my 'mount --bind' links automatically? I mean, can I somehow put those links in /etc/fstab?
[08:20] <codeprophet> Cause I've tried before and it kinda hangs up quite nicely.
[08:20] <xaide> you have to add nw repositories the compiz and xgl ones..
[08:21] <codeprophet> beerorkids?
[08:21] <ro1> ok
[08:21] <nataraj_> LjL: error: missing command to run
[08:21] <JamesG> anyone know what would cause my VNC/Remote Desktop connection to disconnect and then not allow me to log back in again?
[08:22] <JamesG> (after i had been logged in for a few minutes already)
[08:22] <Egyptooo> I am having a problem after installing ati drivers, opengl and direct rendering is working fine alright but when i try to run several apps for example kdetv, opera, aticontrolpanel ...i get Floating point exception, why is that and how to fix it, any help is appreciated:)
[08:22] <xaide> codeprophet yes beerorkid
[08:22] <codeprophet> xaide: So they carry packages for ppc aswell? I didn't know that. Thanks. I shall give it a try. :)
[08:23] <xaide> my english is bad.. what is ppc ?
[08:23] <codeprophet> PowerPC, macintoshes
[08:23] <codeprophet> I'm trying to get it working on an ibook
[08:23] <xaide> we are talking about graphical hardware...
[08:23] <xaide> ati or nvidia
[08:23] <xaide> thats all
[08:24] <codeprophet> ATI, but.. is there any compiz  & xgl-packages put togethor ppc?
[08:24] <xaide> PowerPC is just the PC name.. u have 32 bits procesor.. etc like all
[08:24] <codeprophet> That's the question.
[08:24] <codeprophet> xaide: No, it's a different arch.
[08:24] <xaide> RADEON is radeon
[08:24] <xaide> ati is ati
[08:24] <codeprophet> xaide: ...
[08:24] <codeprophet> You're not getting my point
[08:25] <xaide> no :P{
[08:25] <Wheelybin> Let me rephrase the question I have a folder I want to copy things to, but I cannot, as the owner is root. How can I copy into this folder?
[08:25] <codeprophet> xaide: Has beerorkid put together packages for PowerPC, or only for PC's?
[08:25] <codeprophet> Biiig difference there.
[08:25] <Isaacariah> anyone here know how i can get to the ATi Control panel? the fglrx-control thing?
[08:25] <xaide> PACKAGES ARE FOR Ubuntu dapper
[08:25] <codeprophet> Can't run normal x86-packages on a ppc.
[08:25] <gizmo_the_great1> Hi. I notice during boot that it says 'Starting ACPI Services' which I believe are related to power management etc.  I have used apropos to look up a few such as acpi_listen etc but none appear to be especially useful.
[08:25] <asmo674hurt> please tell me, how to change main menu icon
[08:25] <codeprophet> xaide: THERE ARE DIFFERENT ARCHITECTURES
[08:25] <codeprophet> IM NOT ON A PC
[08:25] <codeprophet> :P
[08:25] <codeprophet> ffs
[08:25] <xaide> i know...
[08:25] <SuperMiguel> boink: hey
[08:25] <xaide> 32 bits? :P
[08:26] <LjL> !caps
[08:26] <Isaacariah> or anyone here got an ATi Radeon working with ubuntu?
[08:26] <xaide> x86 most work on it :)
[08:26] <ubotu> PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[08:26] <codeprophet> xaide: Yes? But I still can't run normal 32bit packages. They NEED to be compiled for the powerpc cpu.
[08:26] <codeprophet> ubotu: I'm sorry.
[08:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about I'm sorry. - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:26] <xaide> mmm i see
[08:26] <codeprophet> xaide: No, absolutely NO x86 packages work on a ppc.
[08:26] <xaide> i dont know how is the arch of a powerpc
[08:26] <codeprophet> It's totally different :)
[08:27] <xaide> :(
[08:27] <SuperMiguel> there is any way to have an dns with my same webpage name?
[08:27] <Wheelybin> ixaacariah. Yes I got ati drivers working in ubuntu, but they're rubbish
[08:27] <xamox> what mailserver do I need to do SMTP?
[08:27] <xamox> better yet, I have a LAMP server setup, and all I want to be able to do is have it send e-mails via Apache, so what do I need?
[08:27] <Egyptooo> anyone can tell me if this error is serious? --->> [fglrx:drm_parse_option]  *ERROR* "agplock" is not a valid option
[08:27] <codeprophet> xamox: more or less any mail delivery-daemon.
[08:28] <ro1> xaide, im a newbie, i installed ubuntu yesterday, can you explain again what im supposed to do?
[08:28] <fairramone> ks1: Thanks. Didn't realize I had to enable multiverse to get unrar.
[08:28] <xamox> codeprophet:  what do you recommend, I would prefer something small, i don't need anymore functionality than that
[08:28] <ks1> fairramone: no problem.
[08:28] <codeprophet> xamox: Exim4 would be the obvious choice.. although perhaps a bit bloated for the task.. hang on, let me do a quick search
[08:28] <xamox> codeprophet:  alright, thx
[08:29] <Isaacariah> Wheelybin, I'm having trouble with them, i've installed them, etc, but nothing happening
[08:29] <codeprophet> xamox: exim4-daemon-light should do the trick. :)
[08:29] <morghanphoenix> Anyone happen to know where my browser's saved passwords, downloaded mail and other personal data is stored?
[08:29] <xamox> codeprophet:  awesome, thx!
[08:29] <Wheelybin> isaacariah what are you trying to do with them? There'e no 3d support, from what I know
[08:30] <Ronz> morghanphoenix, should be in the temp folder of the browsser
[08:30] <morghanphoenix> Want a fresh install, but am really dreading inputing all that again.
[08:30] <Isaacariah> Wheelybin, i used synaptic to grab them, and install them... but i aint noticing any difference... and i was told they had 3D support...
[08:30] <morghanphoenix> that would be /home/user/.opera?
[08:30] <Egyptooo> anyone can tell me if this error is serious? --->> [fglrx:drm_parse_option]  *ERROR* "agplock" is not a valid option
[08:30] <Isaacariah> and i cant get to the ATi control panel either, to configure them
[08:31] <Egyptooo> am i visible by any chance?!:)
[08:31] <gizmo_the_great1> Hi. I notice during boot that it says 'Starting ACPI Services' which I believe are related to power management etc.  I have used apropos to look up a few such as acpi_listen etc but none appear to be especially useful.
[08:31] <Ronz> should be morghanphoenix , yes
[08:31] <codeprophet> Egyptooo: Sounds like a syntax error in the xorg.conf, that's all. Does Xorg work?
[08:31] <morghanphoenix> Nice, so with my seperate home partition I will keep them.
[08:33] <Egyptooo> codeprophet yes it works, but am having problems when i try to run several apps, opera, kdetv, aticontrolpanel.... i get Floating point exception error
[08:33] <richie> Hello, does anybody no how i can stop my storage harddrive mounting in read only?
[08:33] <Egyptooo> this happened after i installed the ati drivers , however direct  render and opengl are working fine
[08:33] <ro1> im having a problem with my screen resolution, i can't put it higher than 1024x768 when i would need a 1280x800, the screen is all split up... (im a real newbie)
[08:34] <codeprophet> Egyptooo: I don't think it has anything to do with that error, but I'm not very experienced with ATI under linux. I'm struggling with it myself for the first time with this ibook.
[08:34] <sktrdie> Hello people
[08:34] <Shadow_mil> 9 Days!
[08:35] <sktrdie> I have a problem in ubuntu with my Flash drive, that it shows up in many devices
[08:35] <sktrdie> /dev/sdc and /dev/sdb1
[08:35] <sktrdie> could anyone help me out?
[08:35] <Egyptooo> codeprophet the funny thing is maya for example works fine with the default ubuntu ati driver, but with the fglrx it doesnt start
[08:35] <Shadow_mil> sktrdie: yes
[08:35] <Shadow_mil> sktrdie: are you in X-Caht?
[08:35] <steveire> Are there obscure proxy settings I don't know about? I don't use a proxy at home, but when I bring my laptop into college and want to use a K app like kontact or konqueror I have to go into settings, proxy etc. I'd like that if network-manager connects to ESSID"collegenetwork", it would apply "proxy.college.com:8888" automatically. Is it possible?
[08:35] <Shadow_mil> chat*
[08:36] <xaide> Make ur own iptables
[08:36] <xaide> Is the most secure proxy :P
[08:36] <ro1> can anyone help me with my resolution problem?
[08:36] <nataraj_> gksudo gives an error  in the shell saying, ``missing command to run ''. what do i do?
[08:36] <Shadow_mil> ro1: don't ask to ask
[08:37] <ro1> but no one is answering my question
[08:37] <nataraj_> please help guys..
[08:37] <Shadow_mil> ro1: whats your question?
[08:38] <JamesG> "Web Server (apache2)" is checked in my Services panel but apache does NOT startup on reboot -- can anyone help?
[08:38] <Shadow_mil> nataraj_: try gksu
[08:38] <richie> Seriously, I know you guys are under alot of pressure.. but does nobody know how i can stop my harddrive mounting into read-only?
[08:38] <steveire> xaide: Was that at me? I don't understand.
[08:38] <SuperMiguel> there is any way that when i type my web name like miguel.com it will look for my ip?
[08:38] <richie> it's not my root harddrive so i can still edit fstab etc.
[08:38] <ro1> i want to know how to set my screen resolution in 1280x800 correctly, cause when i try the normal way, the screen is all split up, so i guess its a problem with my ATI card
[08:38] <khaled_hosny> does any one know, where to get a patched grub for gfxboot in ubuntu, like dapper cd ?
[08:38] <nataraj_> Shadow_mil: same error. what does it mean?
[08:39] <nataraj_> is gksu/gksudo a diff. utility or differetn form of sudo?
[08:39] <Shadow_mil> nataraj_: gksudo command
[08:40] <Shadow_mil> sudo is for command line
[08:40] <Shadow_mil> gksu/do is more like a GUI version of sudo
[08:40] <Paddy_EIRE> Can anyone tell me how to burn an Audio CD with minimal effort from a bunch of mp3s, Ideal process would be like WMP10 (Open App > Add mp3s > select burn/before burning takes place the files are converted to wav for use in everyday cd players... Please tell me this is possible??
[08:40] <nataraj_> where should i run it? in the shell right?
[08:40] <jouke> make: *** /lib/modules/2.6.15-27-386/build: No such file or directory.   <-- can someone tell me what i can do about this? i am trying to compile a wifi driver module
[08:40] <Shadow_mil> nataraj_: you need a command following gksudo
[08:40] <jouke> PacketScan, serpentine
[08:41] <steveire> who can tell me what iptables are?
[08:41] <SuperMiguel> !off topic
[08:41] <jouke> Paddy_EIRE, serpentine
[08:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about off topic - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:41] <Shadow_mil> nataraj_: what line are you trying?
[08:41] <xaide> jouke first ./configure
[08:41] <SuperMiguel> !offtopic
[08:41] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[08:41] <jouke> PacketScan, my bad, wrong user
[08:41] <xaide> if you are trying to compile something
[08:41] <nataraj_> gksudo /username/
[08:41] <jouke> xaide, there is no configure
[08:41] <richie> to say this distro boasts long term support, the support is pretty dire.
[08:41] <Shadow_mil> nataraj_: no, gksudo can't switch users... I think
[08:41] <xaide> jouke u have build-essential installed?
[08:42] <xaide> jouke: btw what are you trying to make?
[08:42] <jouke> lets see
[08:42] <jouke> xaide, the rt61 drivers
[08:42] <PacketScan> jouke,  tis all good :p
[08:42] <Shadow_mil> nataraj_: try this:       gksudo -lu username
[08:42] <nataraj_> Shadow_mil: well there is no `root' user in ubuntu, is there?
[08:42] <nataraj_> k
[08:42] <Paddy_EIRE> jouke: If you're having problems opening certain files make sure you have the GStreamer plugins needed to decode them. I think I have just about every pulgin ever created installed which do I need to get Serpentine to work properly
[08:42] <Shadow_mil> nataraj_: wrong, their is a root user, but root login is disabled
[08:43] <xaide> jouke whats that drivers about?
[08:43] <amortvigil> sorrie for asking here but at debian channel nobody knows the answer ,how can i bundle php5 and mysql ? with wich files?
[08:43] <jouke> Paddy_EIRE, no idea
[08:43] <jouke> xaide, wireless card
[08:44] <Shadow_mil> amortvigil: PHP and MySQL are not bundled.  They connect to each other
[08:44] <Shadow_mil> amortvigil: check out your php.ini file
[08:44] <xaide> Uh wireless.. :S
[08:44] <plamoni> anyone here knowledgeable about ATI drivers?
[08:44] <jouke> xaide, no effect
[08:44] <jouke> xaide, wireless network
[08:44] <Shadow_mil> plamoni: #ati does
[08:44] <plamoni> no one is around ;-)
[08:44] <xaide> jouke yes i see.. i dont know nothing about wireless config on ubuntu i has never used
[08:45] <jouke> xaide, :(
[08:45] <richie> i'd imagine my issue was a pretty simple one, i don't understand why noone is offering me advice, i've been polite enough have i not?
[08:45] <Shadow_mil> plamoni: well this is not the place.  I would suggest you wait for #ati, or try #xorg
[08:45] <plamoni> thanks :-)
[08:46] <nataraj_> Shadow_mil: how do i gain admin or root rights in gui?
[08:46] <ro1> no one is helping me either..
[08:46] <nataraj_> that is in the file-manager
[08:46] <jouke> nataraj_, gksu <command>
[08:46] <xaide> jouke i see that the kubuntu-desktop comes with wireless assistant
[08:46] <xaide> i dont know..
[08:46] <PacketScan> ro1, what's the problem(s) you are having?
[08:46] <Shadow_mil> ro1: ask it!  for the second time
[08:46] <amortvigil> Shadow_mil this is from php.net:Yes. There will always be MySQL support in PHP of one kind or another. The only change in PHP 5 is that we are no longer bundling the client library itself. Some reasons in no particular order:
[08:46] <jouke> xaide, yeah, but i will first need drivers
[08:46] <richie> ro1 heh, you're getting more support than i am :(
[08:46] <Shadow_mil> amortvigil: that seems odd, ask ##php
[08:47] <Shadow_mil> nataraj_: you would have to enable root login to enable root GUI login
[08:47] <ro1> i asked 3 times! i have a problem with my resolution, i cant get it higher then 1024x768 without having the screen all scrambled up, i wanted to know how i could fix this, it could be a problem with my ATI card
[08:48] <Shadow_mil> ro1: do you have the modes added to xorg.conf?
[08:48] <sheriff> someone can help me to install kiba-dock? i finished installing it but when i typed kiba-dock there is nothing on the screen?
[08:48] <PacketScan> ro1, did you install the drivers for your card?
[08:48] <amortvigil> Shadow_mil lol i did there is noone with debian knowledge
[08:48] <ro1> no, i just installed ubuntu yesterday, and im trying to figure the whole thing out
[08:49] <Shadow_mil> amortvigil: Not sure how much this channel will be, this is not a PHP or a debian support, you would have better luck asking ##electronics ;)
[08:49] <Shadow_mil> amortvigil: that was a joke btw
[08:50] <Shadow_mil> amortvigil: best thing I can say, look for PHP extensions in your package manger
[08:50] <amortvigil> k thanx
[08:50] <Shadow_mil> ro1: pastebin this file: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:51] <richie> Seriously, does absolutely noone here know how i can stop my hdb2 mounting in read only?
[08:51] <Paddy_EIRE> i never thought burning some mp3s as audio cd would be so difficult or impossible rather, anyone got a simple solution
[08:51] <Shadow_mil> richie: whats you problem?
[08:51] <Shadow_mil> richie: is it NTFS?
[08:51] <richie> Shadow_mil: yes
[08:51] <optimusprime_> how can I get programs to start on start up?....which file do I change?
[08:52] <ro1> Shadow_mil, im not sure about the meaning of "pastebin"...
[08:52] <Shadow_mil> richie: Linux can only mount NTFS natively for read only.  How ever their are NTFS things that can help.
[08:52] <Shadow_mil> ro1: pastebin.ca
[08:52] <steveire> http://www.faqs.org/docs/Linux-mini/TransparentProxy.html#s5 <<< I was pointed to that to automate the proxy switching, but I don't see how I can automate it. Any ideas?
[08:52] <Isaacariah> anyone know how to enable 3D hardware accel in ubuntu? I got the ATi drivers etc
[08:52] <richie> Shadow_mil: for example?
[08:52] <wildchild> hello, How can I install .exe or how can I run it through vmwplayer, if this is even possible?
[08:53] <Shadow_mil> richie: I am looking, forgot the name lol
[08:53] <sheriff> how can i install kiba-dock?
[08:53] <richie> Shawow_mil: heh, thanks.
[08:53] <ro1> Shadow_mil, am i supposed to type this somewhere?
[08:53] <steveire> No one has any idea?
[08:53] <xamox> okay if I am using exim4 lite for mail server to just be able to send out e-mail from my website(Apache w/ CMS) what option do I want setup by default: internet site(mail sent & received), smarthost(revceived via SMTP/fetchmail), smarthost(localmail) ?
[08:53] <Shadow_mil> ro1 paste it
[08:53] <Shadow_mil> or upload it
[08:53] <ro1> in the terminal?
[08:53] <richie> ro1: he wants you to paste the contents of the file into pastebin.ca
[08:54] <richie> ro1: then give him the link
[08:54] <Shadow_mil> richie: check this out http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper#How_to_mount_Windows_partitions_.28NTFS.29_on_boot-up.2C_and_allow_users_read_and_write_access
[08:54] <ro1> ok
[08:54] <richie> Shawow_mil: thankyou.
[08:54] <Shadow_mil> np
[08:55] <ro1> richie: where is pastebin.ca?

[09:03] <Shadow_mil> sktrdie: it might be a problem with your BIOS, check out your BIOS settings
[09:04] <SEN-5421> anyone here using Bluetooth?
[09:04] <Shadow_mil> ro1: no no no!   Open a terminal
[09:04] <SEN-5421> I cannot get it working with Edgy
[09:04] <LjL> wildchild: can you rephrase your question please?
[09:04] <zotinx_wtf> SEN-5421, http://img223.imageshack.us/img223/2076/imag04646pi.jpg
[09:04] <SEN-5421> I have had bluetooth working on two other distros

[09:04] <SEN-5421> zotinx_wtf, ?
[09:04] <SEN-5421> Shadow_mil, thx
[09:04] <zotinx_wtf> thats me!
[09:04] <zotinx_wtf> :))
[09:04] <sktrdie> Shadow_mil: when I boot from USB is says that it cannot because the image is corrupted. even though it should work, so I figured is probably the problem of the devices showing up
[09:04] <ro1> Shadow_mil: i did say i was completely new to this
[09:05] <PacketScan> zotinx_wtf, you should be dragged into the street and shot
[09:05] <Shadow_mil> sktrdie: I don't know anything about booting to USB I am sorry

[09:05] <Shadow_mil> wildchild: wine
[09:05] <SEN-5421> anyone here using bluetooth on dapper?
[09:06] <raindog> Using Firestarter, sometimes the list of active connections doesn't seem to update.  Is there a way to get it to only list the actual active connections?
[09:06] <wildchild> but I've allready installed vmware Shadow_mil
[09:06] <PacketScan> zotinx_wtf, your shouldn't be posting links to obscene pictures.
[09:06] <Shadow_mil> wildchild: ok run it, install windows on it, and be happy
[09:06] <LjL> wildchild, VMWare Player is a PC emulator. You need to install Windows on it, as if it were a real computer, before being able to run any Windows application
[09:06] <zotinx_wtf> PacketScan, obscene?
[09:06] <zotinx_wtf> why?
[09:06] <zotinx_wtf> thats me!!!!

[09:06] <nawolfe> hey guys, is it possible to install a .deb from a non-priviledged account (install it in my home dir)?
[09:06] <ro1> Shadow_mil: arent you getting my PM replies?
[09:06] <Shadow_mil> ro1: no, are you registered?
[09:07] <ro1> Shadow_mil: i don't think so...
[09:07] <wildchild> LjL how can I install windows with vmware player
[09:07] <LjL> nawolfe, no. you might possibly use a chroot jail
[09:07] <Shadow_mil> ro1: type:        /msg nickserv register password             were password is a password of your picking
[09:07] <Shadow_mil> only type what is between the "              "
[09:07] <nawolfe> LjL: ok thanks
[09:07] <LjL> wildchild: first you need to create a virtual machine, because the player doesn't allow you to make one. you can go to http://www.easyvmx.com to create one

[09:07] <roshan_s> SEN-5421: I'm using edgy, but I've used bluetooth on dapper
[09:07] <dungodung> how to open a port?
[09:07] <LjL> wildchild: then you'd just install it like on a real computer
[09:08] <ro1> Shadow_mil: where do i type this?
[09:08] <Shadow_mil> ro1: IRC
[09:08] <SEN-5421> roshan_s, I keep getting an rfcomm can't connect error. Do you know the cause of this?
[09:08] <ro1>  /msg nickserv register donaldduck
[09:08] <Shadow_mil> ro1: make sure the / has no spaces infront of it
[09:08] <PacketScan> codeprophet, yea we need to get zotinx_wtf banned from freenode.
[09:08] <dungodung> codeprophet: I do
[09:08] <ro1> Shadow_mil; sorry...
[09:08] <codeprophet> PacketScan: Really?
[09:08] <PacketScan> dead serious..
[09:08] <zotinx_wtf> PacketScan, lol.
[09:09] <roshan_s> SEN-5421: Have your devices successfully paired?
[09:09] <SEN-5421> roshan_s, I have this same setup on a Gentoo system with a Broadcom bluetooth adapter and managed to get it working from source in an hour... with edgy I am stuck with this error.
[09:09] <xamox> how do I check with apt-get if a package is installed or not?
[09:09] <GhostFreeman> something is eating up my CPU cycles and I can't figure out what it is
[09:09] <SEN-5421> roshan_s, I can only hcitool scan and see the bluetooth headset...
[09:09] <xamox> or get a list of packages for that matter
[09:09] <Shadow_mil> xamox: dpkg
[09:09] <codeprophet> PacketScan: Why? :P
[09:10] <PacketScan> posting links to obsense pictures
[09:10] <codeprophet> dungodung: Okay, with what? :)
[09:10] <PacketScan> that have nothing todo with ubuntu.
[09:10] <dungodung> codeprophet: I want to enable/open port 22
[09:10] <ro1> Shadow_mil: where do I type the command?
[09:10] <codeprophet> PacketScan: Then he should be banned from the channel, not the network.
[09:10] <aj68> anyone here on x64 ubuntu?
[09:10] <SEN-5421> roshan_s, when I used btsco2 XX:XX:XX:XX 1 I get the rfcomm error. I do not know how to pair the device exactly... on Gentoo I turn the headset to pairing mode and then run the pin-helper script and that pairs the headset to my bluetooth adapter.
[09:11] <Shadow_mil> ro1: just like you did, but don't add spaces

[09:11] <zotinx_wtf> !!!
[09:11] <dungodung> codeprophet: I hope I do
[09:11] <roshan_s> SEN-5421: Your best course of action is something like this. Make a little script which does this: "echo PIN:1234" and put it in, say "/etc/bluetooth/echo_pin".
[09:11] <ro1> Shadow_mil: ok
[09:11] <SEN-5421> roshan_s, yes I have that
[09:11] <codeprophet> dungodung: sudo apt-get install openssh-server otherwise. :-)
[09:11] <SEN-5421> roshan_s, it is /etc/bluetooth/pin-helper

[09:26] <roshan_s> SEN-5421: If it's a pairing problem, the error will be from hcid. In that case, if you can't solve the problem now, and are willing to wait a while and install edgy, it has a fantastic little Gnome applet for bluetooth operations.
[09:26] <Abby> if I have Kubuntu installed strait from a disk, is there a way to change it to be Gnome? (Finding KDE rather frustrating
[09:26] <SEN-5421> roshan_s, I just upgraded to edgy... what is the applet?
[09:26] <cached> abby, install ubuntu-desktop
[09:27] <_AA_> cached:  you can't just go resizing partitions without running the risk of losing data.
[09:27] <anon32> Abby, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[09:27] <anon32> personally, I wish I chose kubuntu..
[09:27] <johnny_> backup data, defrag, resize
[09:27] <johnny_> if resizing windows partition
[09:28] <cached> and if it is an ubuntu partition?

[09:30] <Shadow_mil> richie: pastebin your fstab file
[09:30] <_AA_> so there is no one in here using maildrop on their ubuntu distros ?
[09:30] <cherubiel> cached: gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php, burn the livecd and run it.
[09:31] <bhearsum> i'm not trying to troll, so please don't interpret it as that but i was wondering if anybody has set up an apt repository that provides non-debian patched firefox/thunderbird builds

[09:39] <raintheory> anyone up for helping me with a VNC connection to my Edgy box upstairs?     I can get into it via VNC on Windoze, but not from Dapper...
[09:39] <mluser-work> cherubiel: I'll try that.. thanks
[09:39] <richie> Shadow_mil: yes, hdb2
[09:39] <SEN-5421> roshan_s, thx
[09:39] <l0st1> is it possible to play .mov files in Dapper?
[09:39] <raintheory> or should I use a method other than VNC?
[09:39] <anon32> l0st1, mov is just a container
[09:40] <mluser-work> cherubiel: damn.. still not working.. same error about touch missing a file opperand.. the package is kcemirror btw
[09:40] <anon32> if you mean Sorenson, which is the QuickTime codec, then you need XINE or MPlayer or VLC
[09:41] <Shadow_mil> richie: type /exec -o groups
[09:41] <l0st1> yeah I already have those but I can't seem to play the Quicktime movies.....
[09:41] <l0st1> do I need to install some sort of Codec?
[09:41] <db-> you need the win32 codec pack on the mplayer website
[09:41] <cherubiel> mluser-work: looks like a broken deb
[09:41] <Jhonny1009> hello. The installer freezes while ... installing..I tried to install 3 times but it just halts. I have 6.06 desktop.
[09:41] <SEN-5421> roshan_s, none of what you mentioned worked.
[09:41] <mluser-work> Preparing to replace kcemirror 0.1.4-3ubuntu1 (using .../kcemirror_0.1.4-3ubuntu1_i386.deb) ...
[09:41] <mluser-work> Unpacking replacement kcemirror ...
[09:41] <mluser-work> touch: missing file operand
[09:42] <richie> Shadow_mil: bash: /exec: No such file or directory
[09:42] <Shadow_mil> Just type groups
[09:42] <mluser-work> This is keeping me from doing any additional install or upgrades.. is there a way to just remove that package from the database?
[09:42] <SEN-5421> roshan_s, the bluez-passkey-gnome application downloaded but it not available to add to panel as an applet ... and I cannot find the binary file to run
[09:42] <Geoffrey2> is there any program you can use to print envelopes, or is the easiest way probably to load up OpenOffice and use the envelope feature there?
[09:42] <Jhonny1009> is there another way of installing other than the livecd install?
[09:42] <SEN-5421> roshan_s, "update /etc/bluetooth/hcid.conf" did nothing
[09:43] <db-> Jhonny1009 did you try reburning the livecd?
[09:43] <KenSentMe> johnny_: you can download the alternate install cd for a text mode install
[09:43] <SEN-5421> roshan_s, there was nothing to remove in /var/lib/bluetooth
[09:43] <Jhonny1009> no, but I checked the cd
[09:43] <KenSentMe> !alternate > Jhonny1009
[09:43] <roshan_s> SEN-5421: Did you log out and log in again? It's not a panel applet, sorry. It's a background process. You need to check if the bt-applet process is running. It'll start automatically when you next log in.
[09:43] <KenSentMe> Jhonny1009: the above message was for you too
[09:43] <richie> Shadow_mil: richie adm dialout fax cdrom floppy tape audio dip video plugdev lpadmin scanner admin ntfs
[09:44] <SEN-5421> rok
[09:44] <Jhonny1009> thanks KenSentMe
[09:44] <SEN-5421> roshan_s, k
[09:44] <roshan_s> SEN-5421: I meant you must make sure that if, while upgrading, it asks you if you want to update hcid.conf or stick with the old version, you must upgrade. If you did a fresh install of edgy, it doesn't matter
[09:44] <Shadow_mil> richie: ls -l /mnt/hdb2

[09:48] <thomerz> hi, in which file the default shell for my user is defined? my user is not in /etc/passwd
[09:48] <LjL> thomerz: ... it isn't?
[09:48] <thomerz> LjL: no :/
[09:48] <LjL> thomerz: how can that be?
[09:48] <Ykstort> I tried ubuntu livecd and it screwed up my MBR :\
[09:49] <thomerz> LjL: i don't know
[09:49] <SeanTater> thomerz: can you log out and back in?
[09:49] <SeanTater> thomerz: not that you should, but is it possible?
[09:49] <thomerz> SeanTater: no, the user i try to help has tried to change his default shell, and used the wrong path, now he can't login
[09:50] <scobie> ljl plz help me
[09:50] <LjL> !helpme
[09:50] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[09:50] <voraistos> hey guys. does any one has a http proxy server adress? My isp's crashed and i cant browse anymore ...
[09:50] <SEN-5421> roshan_s,  !!!!!!!!!!! thanks so much! I was messing with bluetooth on my UX-180p for a few hours yesterday knowing that the hardware worked but the configuration for bluetooth under Edgy must have changed and something got "broken" ... bluez-passkey-gnome fixed my issue!
[09:50] <scobie> !helpme
[09:51] <scobie> !helpme
[09:51] <SeanTater> thomerz: if it;s what you are looking for, the correct sell is /bin/bash I think
[09:51] <Ykstort> I tried ubuntu livecd and it screwed up my MBR :\
[09:51] <LjL> scobie: stop doing that. i just wanted to inform you that "please help me" isn't quite the kind of questions we want here.
[09:51] <thomerz> SeanTater: no i'm not looking for that, i'm looking for the file where the default shell is specified, so i can fix it from a live cd
[09:51] <LjL> scobie: anyway, did you install using the Desktop CD?
[09:51] <SeanTater> !msg the bot > scobie
[09:52] <TOOAO> Question, is Ubuntu able to boot from any of the installed harddrives? I have an older PC here, which should run Win98 and Ubuntu, but Win98 on that old PC is only able to boot if its on the primary master hdd, am I still able to install ubuntu on another hdd, lets say secondary master? or will I have trouble with that?
[09:52] <SeanTater> thomerz: I thought it was /etc/passwd (but you probably want to edit it as root)
[09:52] <roshan_s> SEN-5421: You're welcome. This has been a rather long saga documented in Ubuntu bug #59222
[09:52] <xaide> HOW i restar my Network interface!!
[09:52] <xaide> ?
[09:52] <Ykstort> I tried ubuntu livecd and it screwed up my MBR :\
[09:53] <thomerz> SeanTater: 2 problems: the user isn't in /etc/passwd, and there is no root account to work from
[09:53] <andrzej> ifdown/ifup ?
[09:53] <Shadow_mil> richie: you their?
[09:54] <SeanTater> thomerz: the live cd had a root account. You need to edit the file (in the disk, not in the live cd), with the text editor, sudoed to root, on the live cd (make any sense?)
[09:54] <xaide> How to restar Network Interface
[09:54] <xaide> ?
[09:54] <thomerz> SeanTater: but there is still problem 1
[09:54] <granbar> Does anybody have a Cnet CWP-854?
[09:55] <SeanTater> xaide: try --> /etc/init.d/networking restart <-- in a terminal
[09:55] <cherubiel> xaide: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[09:55] <xaide> thx!
[09:55] <rem__> .
[09:55] <SeanTater> xaide: cherubiel's is better
[09:55] <cherubiel> :P
[09:55] <sheriff> i have beryl and i wanna use kiba-dock so i downloaded the deb file but its not in the menu so what problem might be?
[09:55] <SeanTater> rem__: ..
[09:56] <mince> hi all..I downloaded and burned xubuntu-6.06-desktop-i306.iso but it doesn't start booting after I insert it into my cd mechanic..
[09:56] <xaide> My ISP gives me DHCP :(
[09:56] <sheriff> mince : does the menu come up?
[09:57] <SeanTater> thomerz: does this make sense, when run on the live cd? sudo gedit /mnt/disk/etc/passwd (or a variant where mnt can be media and disk could be a lot of things)
[09:57] <rem__> dyndns xaid .. :) ..?
[09:57] <jouke> well, people. i need some help
[09:57] <Shadow_mil> jouke: problem?

[09:57] <granbar> And I could really use some wlan help as well
[09:57] <SeanTater> !wifi > granbar
[09:57] <granbar> Are there anybody here who can help?
[09:58] <cherubiel> !wireless
[09:58] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[09:58] <thomerz> SeanTater: yes, but i do not find the user in /etc/passwd :P
[09:58] <Shadow_mil> granbar: problem?
[09:58] <SeanTater> thomerz: ah -- okay
[09:58] <mince> sheriff: no..windows starts booting:(
[09:58] <rem__> adduser .. ?
[09:58] <SeanTater> thomerz: not entirely sure what you can do
[09:58] <cherubiel> mince: bios boot sequence?
[09:58] <granbar> Shadow_mil: I've got a Cnet CWP-854 card. I can scan and find the appropriate network ( which has WAP encryption ), but I can't connect
[09:58] <thomerz> SeanTater: i try to make the entry myself then
[09:58] <jouke> i have a wireless card and all drivers seem to be functional as the rt61 module is loaded. and that is the chipset it uses, i mean, i think it uses. now when i scan for networks, nothing is found, but when i scan with another usb wifi card, multiple are found. so , what could be wrong and where to start debugging?
[09:59] <SeanTater> thomerz: okay
[09:59] <sheriff> mince : well u have to set the cd-rom to boot first in bios
[09:59] <sureshot> mince did you burn it as an iso to cd or just burned the .iso file to a cd.. you have to have burner software that can handle iso's
[09:59] <granbar> Shadow_mil: Okay, thanks.
[09:59] <jouke> "/
[09:59] <anon32> there's too much fragmentation in the linux world....
[09:59] <anon32> gah...
[10:00] <mince> sureshot: In Nero..there are all files on that cd
[10:00] <cherubiel> granbar: set up all the keys? try wifi-radar
[10:00] <mince> sheriff: it shoudl be set up. other cds boot..
[10:00] <rem__> mince...you can starup with aq livecd mount the disk chroot in it do a grub-install /dev/hda (or wherever your nux boot is...) reboot and it should start ubuntu ...
[10:00] <sureshot> then set you cd to boot first than it should work
[10:00] <mince> rem__: I am using windows xp now:)
[10:00] <cherubiel> mince: did you verify the iso's checksum? maybe it was corrupted?
[10:00] <granbar> brb
[10:00] <rem__> ah k
[10:00] <mince> cheriubiel: nop how?
[10:01] <rem__> sorry to hear it .. :P
[10:01] <sheriff> mince : did you burn the iso file or just put the iso file into a cd

[10:02] <xaide> 2 hours of updates :D
[10:02] <xaide> @24,5kb
[10:02] <cherubiel> mince: get some md5 checksum tool if you're on windows, verify if the checksum matches with the one on the site from you d/led the iso
[10:02] <sheriff> mince : what happens when u put the cd while you are running windows
[10:02] <mince> sheriff: nothing
[10:03] <ro1> Shadow_mil: sorry to tell you this, but it didnt change anything...

[10:10] <foo> Hm, I have a 5.1 sound system hooked up to my ubuntu box. I am using alsa.

None of my levels are maxed out in alsamixer. My speakers are not broken, I unplugged system input and it worked fine. Any ideas?

[10:13] <profoX`> or if you dualboot another OS, see if the problem exists there too
[10:13] <profoX`> it might be something hardware related (which is what i think)
[10:13] <foo> profoX`: no
[10:13] <foo> I have no other os on here. hmm
[10:14] <chuckyp> Any ops here?

[10:16] <jewbilee> hey would anyone mind helping me with my ubuntu install?
[10:16] <unfo> jewbilee: just ask the question :)
[10:16] <jewbilee> haha
[10:16] <jewbilee> thanks
[10:17] <jewbilee> i downloaded what im assuming was the Live CD from the website
[10:17] <unfo> LimboBox: automatic spamming is not tolerated here.
[10:17] <jewbilee> and i put it in, and ran it
[10:17] <chuckyp> gnomefreak, you there?
[10:17] <profoX`> jewbilee: desktop cd ?
[10:17] <jewbilee> yea
[10:17] <jewbilee> i guess thats it
[10:17] <profoX`> jewbilee: yea thats a live cd + installer
[10:17] <jewbilee> ok
[10:17] <profoX`> you can use it as a live cd and install it IF you want from the cd
[10:17] <jewbilee> so to install i just run the desktop icon for isntall?
[10:17] <jewbilee> ok
[10:17] <profoX`> jewbilee: thats right
[10:17] <jewbilee> cool
[10:17] <unfo> LimboBox: if you do not disable the spamming, you will be kicked and/or banned from the channel and you may not be allowed back on freenode for a long time.
[10:17] <jewbilee> one more questions
[10:17] <jewbilee> questin*
[10:18] <sureshot> hey all i just jumped out and back in limboBox is doint just that as you come in you get that advertisment
[10:18] <jewbilee> damnit
[10:18] <jewbilee> lol
[10:18] <chuckyp> unfo, ty
[10:18] <profoX`> jewbilee: if your pc has more than 256 MB ram that should work.. otherwise (less ram) use the Alternate CD instead :) (text installer mode)
[10:18] <unfo> chuckyp: what did I do? :)
[10:18] <chuckyp> Need an op to get rid of LimboBox
[10:18] <foo> chuckyp: heh, he got me too. I tried !ops.
[10:18] <unfo> hes gone
[10:18] <chuckyp> ty
[10:18] <foo> chuckyp: Talk about a poorly moderated channel.
[10:18] <jewbilee> when I first tried Mandriva, GRUB would complain about dual booting when I didnt have my external HDD that Mandriva was installed on connected
[10:18] <adamhorden> i just updated to edgy but what Linux-image do I get for a Pentium 4 3.2 gig machine? I would usually look for a i386 one but I don't see one at packages.ubuntu.org?
[10:18] <mince> sheriff: I have md5 of that iso, where can I see the original one?
[10:18] <jewbilee> how can i avoid that with Ubuntu
[10:18] <foo> I would expect more.
[10:19] <jorgp> adamhorden, its generic now
[10:19] <codeprophet> Hmm, ubuntu on a PPC is really a challenge.. especially when switching to edgy
[10:19] <profoX`> in normal times there are more moderators available.. but it seems like no one is paying attention right now ._. just ignore the spammer for now.. he'll get his ban, don't worry
[10:19] <unfo> foo: chuckyp: the channel tends to be very busy. busier channels are harder to moderate.
[10:19] <unfo> profoX`: hes gone.
[10:19] <jewbilee> profoX
[10:19] <johnnybuoy> codeprophet| yeah. I guess my best bet for ppc would be gentoo, tho it's tedious to install
[10:20] <jewbilee> can you help me with my above dual booting problem
[10:20] <foo> unfo: Definitely. But I know debian has an !ops that says all the ops names in the channel ... and that's nice for something like this.
[10:20] <profoX`> jewbilee: euh.. i don't understand your question well
[10:20] <codeprophet> johnnybuoy: Ack, ubuntu on a 800mhz g3? No thank you. :)
[10:20] <jewbilee> I have windows installed on my laptops main HDD
[10:20] <unfo> jewbilee: please do not ask profox only for help. please ask everyone.
[10:20] <jewbilee> i want to install Ubuntu on my USB external HDD
[10:20] <jewbilee> sorry
[10:20] <unfo> jewbilee: oops i was wrong
[10:21] <POVaddct> "damals, als erasco von rotterdam das dosenfutter erfand..."
[10:21] <sheriff> mince : put the md5 file in the same directory of that iso file and then download an md5 checker
[10:21] <chuckyp> jewbilee, You want grub to not complain about it when its unplugged?
[10:21] <jewbilee> last time I tried to install Mandriva on my external with windows on my internal GRUb would complain when the external wasnt connected
[10:21] <jewbilee> yea
[10:21] <jewbilee> it wouldnt boot
[10:21] <POVaddct> oops, sorry, wrong channel :)
[10:21] <unfo> jewbilee: i thought you just picked profox at random. now i realize he answered you first. :)
[10:21] <jewbilee> hahah
[10:21] <chuckyp> Yeah I don't know how you'd get around that.
[10:21] <profoX`> jewbilee: ah i see..
[10:21] <chuckyp> maybe with a map in there or something.
[10:21] <jewbilee> i was told to install ubuntu onto the external
[10:21] <johnnybuoy> codeprophet| haha! 333MHz ppc, thank you, 2,5 weeks gentoo install.
[10:21] <jewbilee> and put the /boot on my main hardrive
[10:21] <unfo> !ping
[10:21] <ubotu> ping: connection timeout
[10:21] <sheriff> mince : download this , http://www.md5summer.org/
[10:22] <johnnybuoy> codeprophet| it WAS a *lot* faster than dapper tho
[10:22] <profoX`> jewbilee: i have no experience with external hd's really.. does it spit out a specific error?
[10:22] <chuckyp> lol
[10:22] <Paddy_EIRE> Serpentine Rocks!
[10:22] <jewbilee> not that i remember
[10:22] <jewbilee> this was a while ago
[10:22] <mince> sheriff: the iso is 326356256AFB90BBF9850E08FB4D6C88
[10:22] <jewbilee> im just trying to avoid it
[10:22] <profoX`> jewbilee: i only know about internal hd's.. chuckyp: i don't think that would work (mapping) because when the external drive is not connected, it just can't be found
[10:23] <aladds> i just installed ubuntu 6.06 from a pressed ubuntu cd, but when i turn on my pc, grup comes up saying loading stage 1.5 for about a tenth of a second then the computer resets, what's wrong?
[10:23] <codeprophet> johnnybuoy: Haha, really? Ouchie.. well, it might just be worth I try a suppose. The issue of binary packages especially for ppc is kinda eliminated anyway, using gentoo.
[10:23] <jorgp> chuckyp, there is a flash 9 beta for linux?
[10:23] <aladds> *grub
[10:23] <profoX`> jorgp: not public..
[10:23] <profoX`> jorgp: not yet
[10:23] <Rez> chuckyp: he's dead.  should msg a network staffer for those on-joins :)
[10:23] <jorgp> figures
[10:23] <Paddy_EIRE> what would be the simplist to use and most addonable ID3 tagger out there
[10:23] <sheriff> sheriff : no check the file with md5 summer application and it will say if that file is ok
[10:23] <jewbilee> so does anyone have any advice for me?
[10:24] <unfo> chuckyp: are you having problems with flash 7?
[10:24] <profoX`> unfo: who isn't having problems with that one ?
[10:24] <profoX`> thats a better question
[10:24] <profoX`> :)
[10:24] <chuckyp> jewbilee, yeah to try it and see what specific error you are getting then deal with it when it comes.
[10:24] <jewbilee> hahah'
[10:24] <jewbilee> alright
[10:24] <profoX`> lol.. indeed
[10:24] <jewbilee> ill be back if i get an error
[10:24] <jewbilee> thanks a lot guys!
[10:24] <profoX`> jewbilee: come back when it works too :)
[10:24] <fergal32> hi
[10:24] <unfo> chuckyp: you could email the bot admins and request !ops if you want. the bot help page is http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl
[10:24] <jewbilee> of course
[10:24] <jewbilee> haha
[10:24] <profoX`> so we don't have to worry
[10:24] <johnnybuoy> codeprophet| yeah. I tell ya. one menu was taking more than half a minute to open on dapper. on gentoo it was instantaneous
[10:24] <profoX`> ;P
[10:24] <unfo> profoX`: which problems?
[10:25] <profoX`> unfo: audio/video sync, instability, performance issues
[10:25] <unfo> oh :(
[10:25] <profoX`> flash 7 generally s*cks on linux..
[10:25] <unfo> for video, i heard that its supposed to be possible to play flash video in VLC instead of flash.
[10:25] <profoX`> but flash 9 beta is supposed to be way better
[10:25] <unfo> profoX`: says who? :P
[10:25] <profoX`> audio/video sync is fixed, and performance has been improved, at the least
[10:26] <profoX`> says adobe ;P who bought flash from macromedia
[10:26] <adamhorden> I am on edgy and uname states that I am running 2.6.17-10-386 how do I change this to 686?
[10:26] <codeprophet> johnnybuoy: Mmkay, I will give it a try! Thanks! :)
[10:26] <unfo> adamhorden: it is too much work to change. dont bother.
[10:26] <aladds> anyone know what's wrong with grub?
[10:26] <profoX`> unfo: beta is already there, but not publicly available yet, because it's still a bit too buggy
[10:26] <profoX`> it will be released in the next week or 2 weeks they say
[10:26] <johnnybuoy> codeprophet| why? what is your issue?
[10:26] <profoX`> adamhorden: install linux-686
[10:26] <mikm[laptop] > adamhorden afaik, you will want to install the linux-generic kernel
[10:27] <johnnybuoy> codeprophet| it is a bit more complicated than ubuntu to install, tho
[10:27] <unfo> adamhorden: "386" really means "386 compatible". any kernel is fine.

[10:27] <codeprophet> johnnybuoy: I know that, I've used gentoo alot before, on i386's.
[10:27] <johnnybuoy> ah
[10:27] <johnnybuoy> codeprophet| ^
[10:27] <codeprophet> johnnybuoy: I don't like the lack of binary packages for ppc, that's all
[10:27] <codeprophet> And it's quite slow, aswell.
[10:28] <johnnybuoy> codeprophet| yes, well, it's almost the same on gentoo, would guess...
[10:28] <johnnybuoy> codeprophet| that for one is gone in gentoo, the lack of packages...well....eg. no flash, no win32codecs...otherwise it's very well supported in gentoo
[10:28] <alex__> I'm having a problem running frost wire, http://pastebin.ca/207135
[10:29] <Paddy_EIRE> what backup method should allow me to copy all my configuration settings for apps installed with apt-get and keep all the dvd, mp3, flash and java support
[10:29] <adamhorden> cheers profoX
[10:29] <sergiu> sal
[10:29] <codeprophet> johnnybuoy: Well those packages aren't due to lack of binary, it's because of proprietary bullshit.. completely different issue. :-)
[10:29] <Paddy_EIRE> right down to the icons on my desktop
[10:29] <sergiu> e cine va din vienna pe aici?
[10:29] <hikenboot> hello all--I have tried with no luck to get the nvidia drivers working on this box. The closest I have come is being able as root to launch xwindows but on boot xserver fails...any ideas?
[10:29] <djmccormick> i'm trying to install ubuntu on this box that has four ~85 gig drives, and have used the nvidia raid utility to stripe them. should these show up in the installer as one drive? otherwise, how do i handle this?
[10:29] <johnnybuoy> codeprophet| yeah
[10:30] <johnnybuoy> codeprophet| very true
[10:30] <arschmann> hallo

[10:31] <djmccormick> hikenboot: i can see the drives individually, though. any clues on what i might've done wrong?
[10:31] <sergiu> is some one talking romain
[10:31] <sergiu> exit
[10:31] <djmccormick> the raid array shows before booting and all seems well.
[10:31] <hikenboot> my guess and its just a guess ..you dont have the right driver installed
[10:32] <djmccormick> installed? i'm just in the installer utility for ubuntu.
[10:32] <XiXaQ> I'm trying to install Sun Java, but I'm told the package doesn't exist in any repositories. What's the name of that site where you can fix the sources.list?

[10:36] <jewbilee> i have no idea what to do >.<

[10:36] <jewbilee> i did
[10:36] <jewbilee> but i need to partition it
[10:36] <jewbilee> dont it?
[10:36] <profoX`> jewbilee: you can also choose automatic partitioning..
[10:37] <jewbilee> well..
[10:37] <jewbilee> its a 120 GB external
[10:37] <jewbilee> will it overwrite everythin on there?
[10:37] <profoX`> jewbilee: yes, unless you don't want it to.. but then you're better off with manual partitioning of course :)
[10:37] <jewbilee> yea
[10:37] <jewbilee> thats why i need to manual
[10:37] <AWOSDev> I have two user accounts on my computer.  One is UID 1000 and the other is 1004.  1000 can play audio and read/write the various /dev/sound files (e.g. mixer, dsp), but 1004 can't.  Both are members of the audio group (which owns the sound-related /dev/ files).  What could the problem be?
[10:37] <jewbilee> im just unsure of what to do with manual
[10:37] <profoX`> jewbilee: okay.. so.. manual partitioning....
[10:38] <jewbilee> wanna do this in a PM?
[10:38] <profoX`> eh fine
[10:38] <Paddy_EIRE> XiXaQ: you will need to go here if you want to use the beerorkid repo to get the gpg key http://ubuntu.beryl-project.org/
[10:38] <profoX`> XiXaQ: also check #beryl and #ubuntu-xgl (or was that xgl-ubuntu)
[10:39] <AWOSDev> profoX` -- no it's #ubuntu-xgl alright.
[10:40] <XiXaQ> I only want "full" ubuntu repositories.

[10:49] <l0st1> anyone here got an xbox 360 controller working in Dapper?
[10:49] <epimer> any ideas would be appreciated

[10:49] <lacin> hi, #ubuntu; Any body knows how can I play VCD in Ubuntu (with Totem)?
[10:49] <pak-x> i have got my second monitor to work, but he shows the same as one my laptopscreen and also it seems, that he dont has right frequency, because the monitor is "noise". also, when i put the second monitor into my laptop, my system gets incredible slow ;-(
[10:50] <AWOSDev> Zerb_Riss, if you can ping it with the domain name but not bring up the Web site I suggest talking to #apache as it would be their problem.  You may not have the HostName set up correctly.
[10:50] <Zerb_Riss> ah okay good idea, thanks
[10:51] <Allz-i-> is there a icelandic keyboard layout :( ,i cant find it . i have tryied to setup my xorg.conf but nothing works
[10:51] <AWOSDev> jmedina, right, if you dont have those /dev/ files then you can't play sound...I don't think...
[10:51] <jbinder> jmedina: what is the problem?
[10:51] <jmedina> jbinder: I dont want the snd_ modules loaded
[10:51] <AWOSDev> lacin, not with Totem, but I know that MPlayer, xine, and VLC (my fav is VLC) all player.
[10:51] <jmedina> I know I can blacklist them
[10:52] <jmedina> but I want to know how are loaded
[10:52] <AWOSDev> Okay does anybody know about permissions?
[10:52] <jbinder> me
[10:52] <admin_> jbinder: mplayer blows..
[10:52] <jbinder> admin_: LIES
[10:52] <admin_> AWOSDev: yes..what do you need to know?
[10:52] <jbinder> admin_: whats the problem?
[10:52] <AWOSDev> Well see ^^ for my question or I'll ask it again.
[10:52] <jbinder> ask it again?
[10:52] <jbinder> we just got here
[10:52] <lacin> AWOSDev, I hate Mplayer and VLC but about Xine I install libxine, xine-gui and then Gxine it plays VCD but with no sound!
[10:52] <AWOSDev> And now it says "you are not a member of the sudoers file.  this will be reported."  well I'm the admin so I don't really so who you're gonna report it to.
[10:53] <admin_> rwxrwxrwx is full permissions..
[10:53] <AWOSDev> lacin, hmm....
[10:53] <AWOSDev> I have two user accounts on my computer.  One is UID 1000 and the other is 1004.  1000 can play audio and read/write the various /dev/sound files (e.g. mixer, dsp), but 1004 can't.  Both are members of the audio group (which owns the sound-related /dev/ files).  What could the problem be?
[10:53] <jbinder> AWOSDev: thats easy to fix
[10:53] <jbinder> AWOSDev: as root, type
[10:53] <jbinder> sudo visudo
[10:53] <AWOSDev> jbinder, that's new question.
[10:53] <jbinder> visudo*
[10:53] <AWOSDev> As root huh?
[10:53] <jbinder> yeah
[10:53] <AWOSDev> well how do I *get* to be root if I can't sudo!?
[10:53] <AWOSDev> ahhhh
[10:53] <admin_> AWOSDev: ah..
[10:53] <jbinder> do you know the root pw?

[10:53] <shira> hi, does anyone know if FF RC 3 works w/ wine?
[10:53] <jbinder> AWOSDev: type su
[10:54] <AWOSDev> jbinder, I don't have a root password.
[10:54] <admin_> AWOSDev: is there a root pswd for the machine? or was it never set up?
[10:54] <dudanogueira> does anyone can provide the information if a wireless card a/g will be compatible with the B standart?
[10:54] <jbinder> ..
[10:54] <admin_> jbinder: ubuntu systems dont set root pswd
[10:54] <AWOSDev> jbinder, admin_, no there is no root password.
[10:54] <jbinder> AWOSDev: this doesn't make any sense
[10:54] <jbinder> how many accounts are on the computer?
[10:54] <AWOSDev> But thank goodness I left a root terminal up.
[10:54] <AWOSDev> jbinder, 6 user account.
[10:54] <AWOSDev> s
[10:54] <jbinder> which of them have sudo?
[10:54] <Allz-i-> is there a icelandic keyboard layout :( ,i cant find it . i have tryied to setup my xorg.conf but nothing works
[10:54] <AWOSDev> Ooooh that's the problem.
[10:55] <AWOSDev> I removed myself from admin group accidentally.
[10:55] <AWOSDev> :P
[10:55] <admin_> heh
[10:55] <jbinder> lol
[10:55] <jenda> Allz-i-: if nothing works, I can help you set up your own keyboard layout.
[10:55] <Allz-i-> great
[10:55] <Allz-i-> how?
[10:55] <admin_> AWOSDev: do you need to make a root account?
[10:55] <AWOSDev> Ahhh the admin group doesn't even exist!
[10:55] <grahamldlw> hey can anyone help me? i have a small probably easily solveable problem???
[10:55] <jbinder> ...
[10:56] <LjL> Allz-i-:  use a sweish lyou, which should work well enough, but there should be an icelandic layout in your preferences ;) no need to touch xorg.conf i believe
[10:56] <jbinder> AWOSDev: PM
[10:56] <AWOSDev> oh there it is.
[10:56] <jbinder> k
[10:56] <admin_> grahamldlw: sure, hit it
[10:56] <AWOSDev> No I found it it's 111
[10:56] <Allz-i-> ok
[10:56] <admin_> AWOSDev: 111..permissions?
[10:56] <Allz-i-> ljl wow
[10:56] <jenda> Allz-i-: it's not a 5 minute job, so you might want to look around a bit first... in the meantime, could you give me an idea of what the icelandic kb looks like? (a picture would be best)
[10:56] <AWOSDev> No admin:111:
[10:56] <Allz-i-> man plzzzz help me :(
[10:56] <grahamldlw> i have a pascal file on my pc on my desktop that i want to like check or compile or whatever the technical word is for it, i bascically want to be able to go thru it
[10:56] <jbinder> AWOSDev: uh.. what?
[10:56] <AWOSDev> Okay now I can sudo again.
[10:56] <jbinder> k
[10:56] <AWOSDev> Now we can fix the other problem.
[10:56] <grahamldlw> oh and what does GNU and KDE mean?@
[10:56] <jbinder> AWOSDev: which is...
[10:56] <AWOSDev> 111 is the GID.
[10:57] <AWOSDev> I have two user accounts on my computer.  One is UID 1000 and the other is 1004.  1000 can play audio and read/write the various /dev/sound files (e.g. mixer, dsp), but 1004 can't.  Both are members of the audio group (which owns the sound-related /dev/ files).  What could the problem be?
[10:57] <admin_> grahamldlw: KDE- K Desktop Enviroment
[10:57] <grahamldlw> and what does that mean exactly?
[10:57] <pak-x> I have a problem with my xorg.conf! I got my second monitor to work, but he shows the same as the other. also he is noisy(wrong frequency) and when i put it in, my system gets also incredible slow ;-( what can i do?
[10:57] <grahamldlw> im new to this? so just gettin a hang of it
[10:57] <admin_> grahamldlw: KDE is a desktop environment, such comparable to GNOME and XFCE to name a couple
[10:57] <admin_> !kde
[10:57] <LjL> Allz-i-: well, right now i'm on Edgy and can't even check the keyboard layouts, because the Edgy config's broken. i'm trying to address that. anyway, looked under System / Preferences / Regional or whatever it's called? (KDE here)
[10:57] <ubotu> KDE (http://kde.org) is the K Desktop Environment. To install from Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop, or see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE for other ways to get KDE
[10:57] <admin_> !desktop enviroment
[10:58] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about desktop enviroment - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:58] <grahamldlw> so what is k ubuntu? what does it change?
[10:58] <LjL> grahamldlw: it's got KDE instead of Gnome.
[10:58] <AWOSDev> It's Ubuntu + KDE (hence the K)
[10:58] <admin_> grahamldlw: kubuntu uses the KDE desktop as defaul
[10:58] <admin_> y
[10:58] <Allz-i-> ljl i had icelandic keyboard :( and then i tryied some stupid stuff in xorg.conf and all got mixed up ,and now there is now going back
[10:58] <LjL> AWOSDev: well not really, it's Ubuntu + KDE - Gnome ;)
[10:58] <grahamldlw> i dont understand it, just alot of programs say KDE
[10:58] <admin_> ubuntu=gnome enviroment
[10:58] <AWOSDev> s/defaul\ny/default :P
[10:59] <grahamldlw> oh rite ok
[10:59] <grahamldlw> but anyway!
[10:59] <LjL> Allz-i-: then try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[10:59] <admin_> grahamldlw: anything else?
[10:59] <grahamldlw> how do i go thru my pascal code?
[10:59] <AWOSDev> LjL hehe
[10:59] <grahamldlw> i have a file on my desktop and downloaded a GNU compilte
[10:59] <AWOSDev> grahamldlw, try gedit?  vi?
[10:59] <admin_> grahamldlw: i'm not sure, do you want to view it?
[10:59] <AWOSDev> kate?
[10:59] <grahamldlw> compiler* now what?
[10:59] <Allz-i-> i have already tryied it
[10:59] <jungsonn> does anyone know how i configure Totem to use with aMSN ?
[10:59] <Allz-i-> ljl
[10:59] <grahamldlw> yes and be able to change it and make adjustments
[10:59] <blind> I have Flash 7 installed, and the popup boxes for Flash 9 come up *all the time.* It's so annoying. Is there any way around it?
[11:00] <admin_> grahamldlw: try opening it with kate?
[11:00] <grahamldlw> im a complete noobie with ubuntu or linux in general i was a sole windows user b4 so u have to be very simple with me i dont understand things lol
[11:00] <admin_> grahamldlw: ok, kate is a text editor, a pretty nice one
[11:00] <grahamldlw> btw i dont know what any programs or technical language or terms used are
[11:00] <admin_> comparable to M$ wordpad
[11:00] <grahamldlw> ok
[11:00] <admin_> cept wayy better
[11:00] <grahamldlw> how do i get it?
[11:00] <grahamldlw> type it in on apt-cache search etc?
[11:00] <admin_> yes
[11:00] <LjL> well Allz-i-, either the dpkg-reconfigure or the settings in the Preferences should work, i think... anyway, you'd probably better find someone who actually uses Gnome. I've used it, but I don't even have it installed right now, so I can't really guide you through
[11:01] <grahamldlw> btw the ONLY two thigns i can do on linux is apt cache search and apt get install etc, i dont rele know how to do anything else
[11:01] <Paddy_EIRE> which multitrack sound production suite would be closest to CuBase/CakeWalk on ubuntu and is it hard to setup
[11:01] <grahamldlw> one sec then
[11:01] <admin_> grahamldlw: no problem
[11:01] <raintheory> !restartx
[11:01] <ubotu> x is the X Window System; it's the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type this in a console: sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  -  To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[11:01] <AWOSDev> My sound permission thing is very annoying...can somebody please help me?
[11:01] <jbinder> uh
[11:01] <lupine_85> Paddy_EIRE: check out jokosher
[11:01] <LjL> grahamldlw, yes, "apt-cache search pascal compiler" will tell you that gpc is the standard compiler
[11:01] <lupine_85> it's pretty cool
[11:02] <admin_> grahamldlw: if you would like basic things, and access to more programs (I 100% recomment it), download EasyUbuntu, its a program which helps you automatically set up Flash, java, extra fonts, extra repositories
[11:02] <jbinder> chmod 777 -R /dev

[11:04] <Paddy_EIRE> ?
[11:04] <killown> anyone can help me
[11:04] <lupine_85> edgy is apparently release candidate now
[11:04] <LjL> !helpme
[11:04] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[11:04] <Paddy_EIRE> really

[11:04] <lupine_85> admin_: I did
[11:04] <lupine_85> still am
[11:04] <^Ocean^> are there any programs that will turn a .avi into a animated .gif ?
[11:05] <Paddy_EIRE> you guys are killing me here, is edgy ready/stable as stable as dapper yet
[11:05] <admin_> lupine_85: ah..i've had problems with some bugs in it..so i'm not putting it on my main box for a while
[11:05] <fdoving> AWOSDev: what are you trying to do?
[11:05] <AWOSDev> ^Ocean^ I remember maybe *one* on Windows...none on Linux as of yet.
[11:05] <admin_> Paddy_EIRE: Edgy will NEVER be that stabl;e
[11:05] <lupine_85> still no guarantees with it, of course, but "it works for me"
[11:05] <AWOSDev> fdoving, anything!   (to do with sound)
[11:05] <Parisi> Paddy_EIRE,  Of course not.
[11:05] <Paddy_EIRE> lol
[11:05] <AWOSDev> admin_, really?  NEVER?  even in FinalRelease?
[11:05] <admin_> Paddy_EIRE: Dapper is most stable out for ubuntu series, and it will be for a while
[11:05] <Paddy_EIRE> I wont be goin for edgy until its atop of distrowatch
[11:05] <fdoving> AWOSDev: are you in the audio group? (check with 'id' from konsole)
[11:05] <lupine_85> I went for edgy just pre-knot-3
[11:05] <Bubbadood> nolimitsoya u around ?
[11:05] <LjL> admin_, wrong.
[11:05] <Chm0d> how do you uninstall the nvidia drivers?
[11:05] <admin_> AWOSDev: edgy is..really only if you want bleeding edge stuff
[11:05] <jmedina> :S
[11:06] <admin_> LjL: no
[11:06] <LjL> admin_, once more wrong.
[11:06] <jmedina> I still cant find a way to disable sound modules
[11:06] <Chm0d> apt-get --remove nvidia-glx?
[11:06] <^Ocean^> hmm, well is there a program i can use to dump the frams of an avi into a image format such as png or jpg or gif ?   That i could then convert to .gif and then turn into a animated gif hahaha
[11:06] <AWOSDev> uid=1004 gid=100(users) groups=100(users), 111(admin)
[11:06] <LjL> admin_: edgy is not particularly bleeding edge (though it was originally intended to be), and Dapper just benefits from so-called "Long Term Support", which has nothing to do with its stability.

[11:08] <jbinder> AWOSDev: do you still have the same problem?
[11:08] <jbinder> with the permissions?
[11:08] <sandy16> trappist, there is something like gdmflexiserver --xnest how can i apt-get that?
[11:08] <admin_> !permissions
[11:08] <ubotu> The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[11:09] <grahamldlw> i cant get any of it to work
[11:09] <trappist> sandy16: sounds like maybe you want xnest?
[11:09] <grahamldlw> the pascal compiler or that easy ubuntu thing
[11:10] <trappist> sandy16: apt-cache show xnest and read the description, and sudo apt-get install xnest to install it
[11:10] <LjL> grahamldlw: well, i can't (and won't) help you with easy ubuntu, but what's the problem with the pascal compiler?
[11:10] <AWOSDev> jbinder: with the /dev/ yes.
[11:10] <anon32> how do I get ms fonts?
[11:10] <AWOSDev> fdoving: okay here's what I got.

[11:10] <ubotu> Package fpc does not exist in any distro I know

[11:10] <sandy16> trappist, thanx
[11:10] <grahamldlw> i dont know what i need to do, i ahve the file on my desktop but dont know how to get it into the terminal, or how to get it out after
[11:10] <jbinder> AWOSDev: ok
[11:10] <anon32> trappist, are they copyrighted or something? shouldn't they be default installed?
[11:11] <^Ocean^> what can i use to record a video with my webcam ?
[11:11] <jbinder> who do you want the owner to be
[11:11] <AWOSDev> fdoving: *BUT*:   The user is already a member of `audio'.
[11:11] <LjL> grahamldlw: when you say "file", you mean the Pascal source code?
[11:11] <Jowi> I have an urgent request. does anyone have a intel mac? I need an example of the partition layout (i toasted mine)
[11:11] <trappist> anon32: they are freedom-challenged, yes
[11:11] <grahamldlw> yes
[11:11] <AWOSDev> jbinder, I want everything to stay the same.  UID 1000 can use the sound well, so I know it's something dumb I've done :)
[11:11] <jbinder> do you want EVERYONE to have read access?
[11:11] <LjL> grahamldlw: just type "cd ~/Desktop" into your terminal. if you type "ls" then, the file will show up.
[11:11] <fdoving> AWOSDev: yes, you need to login to get user permissions, or use 'sg command' to run something as another group
[11:11] <LjL> !cli > grahamldlw
[11:11] <AWOSDev> fdoving: huh?
[11:11] <Sybux> HI, i'm trying to create a video from jpeg file taken from my webcam. I'm using mencoder but when I run it, it make a segmentation fault. I've try running it on windows and it's says juste before crashing : "picture size invalid" any1 know how I can correct this ?
[11:12] <sheriff>  i just downloaded java studio creator 2 update 1 and installed it so it was working very well but today its like running but there is nothing on the screen i mean there is an empty page so how can i fix it?
[11:12] <AWOSDev> fdoving: I cated /etc/group and my name is listed under audio.
[11:13] <fdoving> AWOSDev: how did you add your user? (i find it strange that you're in the users group, as ubuntu uses usergroups.)
[11:13] <AWOSDev> fdoving: I also tried to restart KMix but it still says I can't access /dev/mixer.
[11:13] <fdoving> AWOSDev: you need to logout, and re-login.
[11:13] <AWOSDev> fdoving, useradd?
[11:13] <pak-x> when I put my second monitor into my notebooks graphiccard, my cpu usage is 100 percent? why
[11:13] <AWOSDev> fdoving: /me comes from Red Hat and SuSE and always adds his users to the users group.
[11:13] <LjL> AWOSDev: use adduser... or the GUI system
[11:13] <fdoving> AWOSDev: that's not the proper way to do it. you should use 'adduser' to get it right.
[11:14] <fdoving> AWOSDev: but it's not too late :)
[11:14] <AWOSDev> So the useradd command, which is built in to the kernel, is wrong?
[11:14] <grahamldlw> dont worry i give up im going to bed for now
[11:14] <grahamldlw> cya
[11:14] <SeanTater> What did I do wrong? http://clancy.homelinux.com/smartslide-alpha1.py dvd-slideshow never gets the arguments correctly..
[11:14] <suyog> what is the correct option to use for /home partition? defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 ??
[11:14] <anon32> huh... and how can I play midi files (yea yea... kinda weird question)?
[11:14] <fdoving> AWOSDev: not wrong, adduser just makes everything alot easier for you.
[11:14] <LjL> AWOSDev: "built into the kernel"?
[11:14] <LjL> !midi > anon32
[11:14] <AWOSDev> anon32, yeah same problem here, I can't play MIDI files even as UID1000.
[11:14] <suyog> i mean, the same options as that for the root partition?
[11:15] <AWOSDev> LjL, well not build into "the kernel" persay, but it is part of coreutils.
[11:15] <sheriff> can anyone help me?
[11:15] <SeanTater> !helpme > sheriff
[11:15] <sheriff>  i just downloaded java studio creator 2 update 1 and installed it so it was working very well but today its like running but there is nothing on the screen i mean there is an empty page so how can i fix it?
[11:16] <pak-x> no one can help me right ?
[11:16] <anon32> wow... never thought fonts could be so massive
[11:17] <^Ocean^> Is there a program i can use to record a video with my webcam under linux ?
[11:17] <suyog> anyone, please? i need some help mounting my home folder onto a different partition.
[11:17] <Sybux> ^Ocean^ you can use a tools like camorama and the mencoder or ffmpeg to create the video file
[11:17] <AWOSDev> fdoving: relogin.  okay.
[11:17] <AWOSDev> fdoving: lemme try that.
[11:18] <^Ocean^> Sybux, camorama only seems to take images not viideo tho :S
[11:18] <nolimitsoya> Bubbadood,
[11:18] <pak-x> -.-
[11:18] <Sybux> ^Ocean^ yep, then you create the video from the jpeg file
[11:18] <nolimitsoya> how did it go?
[11:18] <Bubbadood> just wanted to let you know full recovery and thanks
[11:18] <Falstius> suyog, you need to edit the /etc/fstab file and /etc/shadow ... you should probably look at the man pages for those files.
[11:18] <^Ocean^> lol but id have to sit there clicking the take image buttton 30times a second ahaha
[11:18] <nolimitsoya> Bubbadood, congratulations and np :)
[11:18] <Sybux> ^Ocean^ in theroy... I'm trying to do it but with no succes for the moment
[11:19] <suyog> Falstius, I see. and how about the default opetions in fstab? The same as root partition? defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 ?
[11:19] <Sybux> ^Ocean^ oh.. you need a real time video
[11:19] <Jowi> I have an urgent request. does anyone have a intel mac? I need an example of the partition layout. I wiped the drive to install ubuntu and the gpt partition went with it. now i can not install osx, and even when i install ubuntu it will fail to boot.
[11:19] <LjL> ^Ocean^, try dvr perhaps
[11:19] <suyog> ^Ocean^, how about using istanbul?
[11:19] <Sybux> ^Ocean^ perhaps you can do it directly with mencoder I've seen a lot of option in the man !
[11:20] <LjL> yes, a lot of transcoding programs can capture from a v4l device
[11:20] <LjL> anyway, dvr is specifically thought for that afaik
[11:20] <Bubbadood> tried installing Ubuntu afterwards .. got all kinds of out of memory errors while attempting to start setup.... right after loading the Kernel .. anyone see this before ?
[11:20] <Bubbadood> *afterwards = today haha
[11:21] <nolimitsoya> Bubbadood, same disk?
[11:21] <xroach> my ubuntu freezes when i call with skype or send files trouhgt samba. what might be wrong?
[11:21] <Bubbadood> np
[11:21] <Bubbadood> no
[11:21] <nolimitsoya> or same system that thrashed the disc?
[11:21] <Bubbadood> nope just a play system that I had fedora on
[11:21] <xroach> and its a total freezup nothing helps exept just boot.
[11:21] <mrmknet> How can i setup my VGA card?
[11:22] <nolimitsoya> does it flake out when booting the live cd, or when booting afterinstallation?
[11:22] <Bubbadood> it flakes out after I choose ... install ubuntu
[11:22] <nolimitsoya> Bubbadood, try the alternate install cd
[11:22] <Allz-i-> ljl how to check if i have downloaded my nvidia driver ?
[11:23] <Allz-i-> i mean what command
[11:23] <nolimitsoya> and, if you are trying dapper, try the edgy beta
[11:23] <Bubbadood> where is the alternate cd ?
[11:23] <LjL> Allz-i-: "apt-cache policy nvidia-glx"
[11:23] <nolimitsoya> on the download ftp
[11:23] <LjL> Allz-i-: the fact that you have it installed doesn't mean that you have it configured, though
[11:23] <Bubbadood> ubuntu-6.06.1-desktop-i386.iso.torrent
[11:23] <Bubbadood> oops
[11:23] <rem64> hi all
[11:23] <fluvvell> im  coming across a files open limit which is paralysing evolution.  At one point I got ulimit -n to work but now it says   bash: ulimit: open files: cannot modify limit: Operation not permitted
[11:23] <Bubbadood> ubuntu-6.06.1-alternate-i386.iso
[11:24] <bXi> yo
[11:24] <Bubbadood> that is what I grabbed and burned
[11:24] <bXi> is it possible to let ubuntu log in to a samba domein controller?
[11:24] <LjL> Bubbadood: that certainly looks like the alternate cd, yeah. the desktop one looks like it might be the desktop cd ;)
[11:24] <fluvvell> anyone know where to set ulimit permanently?
[11:24] <chuckyp> !samba > bXi
[11:24] <xroach> could anyone help?
[11:25] <SpaGed> hi
[11:25] <nolimitsoya> Bubbadood, try edgy
[11:25] <SpaGed> will someone please help me?
[11:25] <nolimitsoya> where do you live?
[11:25] <Allz-i-> !nvidia

[11:25] <nolimitsoya> Bubbadood, http://ftp.port80.se/ubuntu-cd/6.10/
[11:25] <chuckyp> Bubbadood, alternate cd is on the download page
[11:26] <nolimitsoya> thats edgy
[11:26] <SpaGed> im new to ubuntu, and last night i DLd the ISO and burned it with roxio as an ISO file, when i reboot, it does not boot ubuntu
[11:26] <chuckyp> nolimitsoya, is he looking for edgy or just the alternate?
[11:26] <SpaGed> it goes back to windows
[11:26] <nolimitsoya> alternate edgy :)
[11:26] <chuckyp> ahh
[11:26] <SpaGed> has anyone here had that problem?
[11:26] <fluvvell> SpaGed, does your computer boot cdroms ok?
[11:26] <SpaGed> yes
