[01:57] <Paddy_EIRE> keegangrayson, that has always been the way it loads... if you just want to view them offline then choose not to reload the list as this will error out... then viola
[01:57] <CochiseIRL> twentysix, boot from your livecd and mount your partiton and there should be a backup of your xorg.conf file under /etc/X11/
[01:57] <iotham> hey... good day....

[01:58] <twentysix> CochiseIRL: thanks, this is driving me nuts!
[01:58] <twentysix> live CD is starting now
[01:58] <twentysix> be a moment
[01:58] <CochiseIRL> twentysix, did you install ati drivers and was it working before that
[01:58] <Paddy_EIRE> keegangrayson, it'll hardly be the latest if you are offline
[01:58] <twentysix> it was working yes, and i installed the (restricted?) ATI driver that Ubuntu suggested
[01:59] <gluttoy> how do i force mount a drive?
[01:59] <mesterharm> still can't figure out how to boot into command line.
[01:59] <CochiseIRL> twentysix, ok, what card have you
[01:59] <tasos> usrl: I'm sure there's a fork of nautilus with tabs out there, or a patch ... but it does have a sidepane ... which you can use as tabs in a way. All you do is drag the folder you want to add to the list
[01:59] <twentysix> Asus Radeon 9550
[01:59] <keegangrayson> Paddy_EIRE: true, I mean will it be the same list as the last time I updated? or will it be the list from when I installed the operating system?
[01:59] <Paddy_EIRE> mesterharm, recovery
[01:59] <ztomic> kahrytan: hmmm. reading wiki.
[01:59] <m11> problem with dns and dhcp server not starting, any help?
[01:59] <Paddy_EIRE> keegangrayson, should be the same as of your last update/reloading of the list
[01:59] <Paddy_EIRE> yes
[01:59] <CochiseIRL> twentysix, you should try the ati drivers from ati theyĺl give you aiglx so you can have compiz without xgl session
[01:59] <mesterharm> Recovery mode also locks up.
[01:59] <Veinor> how can I get multiple programs that play sound to play it at the same time?
[01:59] <vmlinuz`> is google.com working for anyone? It's either slow or Not working for ME.
[02:00] <twentysix> yeah, i would love to do that CochiseIRL  but need a display on my PC first ;)
[02:00] <keegangrayson> Paddy_EIRE: cool, thanks for clarifying for me
[02:00] <twentysix> about to boot into Live here CochiseIRL
[02:00] <Paddy_EIRE> keegangrayson, heh.. no probs
[02:00] <twentysix> please bear with me as i am a Linux n00b, but not a PC n00b
[02:00] <vmlinuz`> yes, no, maybe? anybody have his browser up
[02:00] <CochiseIRL> twentysix, once we get your display sorted i have a linky with a tutorial for new ati drivers
[02:00] <tasos> I'm having problems with my microphone on ubuntu. Can anybody help?

[02:01] <vmlinuz`> Paddy_EIRE: then why is it slow for me. or not loading... It's been like that for the last couple of days.
[02:01] <talic> pushed back for prison break
[02:01] <CochiseIRL> twentysix, boot into recovery mode from your hd instead
[02:01] <Paddy_EIRE> vmlinuz`, hmm... are you in the uk

[02:01] <twentysix> CochiseIRL: how do i boot into recovery mode? Ubuntu just automatically starts
[02:01] <taime1> twentysix: hit esc at boot
[02:02] <tasos> twentysix: or edit your grub menu.lst file
[02:02] <CochiseIRL> twentysix, when you start you should see a little countdown press a button and a menu will pop up select recovery on it
[02:02] <Paddy_EIRE> vmlinuz`, I use google.ie myself maybe you should use a more regionalserver
[02:02] <vmlinuz`> allright.
[02:02] <Veinor> how can I enable software mixing?
[02:02] <ztomic> kahrytan: too much trouble... what do you use for video capture?
[02:02] <twentysix> it's booting into Live right now, didn't want to interrupt it... should i just let it boot in, or reboot? and do i keep the CD in or remove it?
[02:03] <CochiseIRL> twentysix, reboot and take out the live cd
[02:03] <Paddy_EIRE> vmlinuz`, although that does not explain why it just suddenly slowed down
[02:03] <twentysix> ok 1 mo
[02:03] <fjfalcon> hello all. I do nmap on myself and scan ports from 1 to 65535, how can i find what daemon on what port is enabled?

[02:15] <Paddy_EIRE> dandaman32, not here
[02:15] <fyrestrtr> dandaman32: change your mirrors
[02:15] <CochiseIRL> twentysix, try sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg

[02:25] <saltydav> anyone there

[02:26] <fyrestrtr> leo_rockw: would you say that makes it less or more annoying?
[02:26] <dave> i havew no idea of your setup but instead of allowing hal to mount them for you you can specify the drives in fstab

[02:43] <sMonk> What happend is I was using Vista, I have 2 HDs.. 1 Sata 1 IDE, the bootmgr was installed on the IDE but the Vista OS was on the SATA, I installed Kubuntu, Grub overwrote the Bootmgr for Vista.. I put in the Install DVD and it can't see either HD, and wants me to install drivers. I've tried doing the bootrec.exe with both /fixmbr and /fixboot and fixmbr works but fixboot fails because of unknown drive error. Then Kubuntu wont load
[02:43] <sMonk> becaus of the erased MBR, so I have to rescue Kubuntu.. now here I am in need of help.
[02:43] <bacjon> i'm having trouble installing ubuntu on my virtual machine. i got it to load and got the boot menu ( my choices are [start or install ubuntu], [start ubuntu in safe graphics mode] [install with driver update cd] [OEM install (for manufacturers)], [check for defects], [memory test], [boot from first hard disk]) and i can move the highlight from one choice to the other but when i press enter it does'nt do anything

[02:44] <Alyxander> bacjon hit tab and select the no vga option
[02:44] <preaction> mcquaid, i have heard of what you speak, but i saw it as a proposal, not as an actual feature yet
[02:44] <niuq> Sivik: i actually couldn't find /etc/init.d/inetd   and i think that's why swat doesn't works
[02:44] <tasos> saltydav: again, sorry, I'm using nvidia, don't know much about the ATI drivers
[02:45] <mcquaid> hmm, i thought it was... damn i'd like to find that article again
[02:45] <chuy_max> sMonk, perhaps grab a live cd, and reinstall grub
[02:45] <tasos> saltydav: I'm sure you can find what card the driver versions correspond to easily on google though
[02:45] <tasos> sMonk: there's a way to rescue Grub
[02:45] <Sivik> niuq, there is going to be something called /etc/init.d/samba or something and you can do it that way
[02:45] <tasos> sMonk: do you have a live CD by any chance?
[02:46] <dustan> is there a way to patch a driver without "sudo make modules" for the whole /linux-source directory?
[02:46] <sMonk> I tried reinstalling grub.. I have even re-written the menu.lst to accomidate all possible HD boot solutions
[02:46] <dustan> seems like alot to do to patch a single driver
[02:46] <Sivik> it should be /etc/init.d/samba, thats what it is on my machine niuq
[02:46] <saltydav> tasos : hmm
[02:46] <saltydav> anyone knows which is a better ati driver 8.37 or 8.42?
[02:46] <defishguy> sMonk:  Are you saying that the Vista DVD can't see the hard drives as if you were trying to reinstall it?
[02:46] <chuy_max> sMonk, how did you actually tried to reinstall grub?
[02:46] <tasos> saltydav: what happens when you do enable desktop effects from the preferences menu
[02:47] <niuq> Sivik: yeah, that it's fine, but i can't enable swat program
[02:47] <Sivik> wtf is swat program?
[02:47] <tasos> wtf does wtf stand for? (oh wait)
[02:48] <Sivik> wtf is what the fudge
[02:48] <sMonk> Ok, I'm trying to rescue my Vista boot.. because Grub over-writ it. I  am running Kubuntu 7.10 just fine, works good, but when I try to put in my install Cd for Vista to repair the install, / boot it can't see my HD's and tells me to load drivers, when there isn't any.
[02:48] <tasos> heh, oh.
[02:48] <CochiseIRL> tasos, :-)
[02:48] <mcquaid> preaction, yes as far as I can tell it already works too cool
[02:48] <Sivik> niuq: i bet it restarts when doing the /etc/init.d/samba restart
[02:48] <mcquaid> here for more info http://www.cypherbios.org/blog/?p=27&language=en
[02:48] <niuq> Sivik: it's a web server app for samba configurations
[02:48] <Mat1> Greetings
[02:48] <Sivik> yeah, i see it now
[02:48] <twentysix1> CochiseIRL: i do step 7 fine but when i get to step 8 it says "No such file or directory"
[02:48] <Sivik> i bet it restarts when you restart samba
[02:48] <niuq> Sivik: or something like it, its for configuring samba in a easy way
[02:49] <bacjon> alyxander i dont see that option
[02:49] <tasos> sMonk, join #tasos for a sec if nobody else is answering
[02:49] <twentysix1> CochiseIRL: i think i know why, on step 7 i get an error at the end, unsupported architecture

[02:51] <DakoGahiTaas> can i ask help here in deciding on which release should i download betweean ubuntu 6.06 lts and ubuntu 7.10?
[02:51] <mtgeekman> Can some one help me fix my grub problem?  I had to fix it to get into ubuntu and windows but window wont boot.  I upgraded from xubuntu 7.04 to ubuntu 7.10(as in full reinstall..)   choosing windows in the menu goes to a "starting...."   and a black screen
[02:51] <CochiseIRL> twentysix, lol
[02:52] <CochiseIRL> DakoGahiTaas, 6.06 has long term security updates, 7.10 has newest features and updates
[02:52] <niuq> preaction: i don't have that directory either
[02:52] <preaction> niuq, that directory? you have to install it. apt-get install xinetd
[02:53] <tasos> mtgeekman: join #tasos, there's another guy with a similar problem
[02:54] <niuq> preaction: still swat program doesn't works
[02:54] <CochiseIRL> DakoGahiTaas, need any more about the differences?
[02:54] <ztomic> how much woolgathering does it take to make a lazy person?
[02:55] <preaction> niuq, i need more information than "it doesn't work". what does it do? what should it be doing? what have you tried to do to fix it?
[02:55] <DakoGahiTaas> CochiseIRL, yes if its alright with you
[02:55] <CochiseIRL> DakoGahiTaas, fire away
[02:55] <twentysix1> CochiseIRL: if this works, i will give you my first born... but unfortunately i'm not having children. :)
[02:55] <CochiseIRL> twentysix, its ok i got one all ready

[02:56] <dustan> sorry i'm new, is there a way to patch a driver without "sudo make modules" for the whole /linux-source directory? just a link to a tutorial would be great.
[02:56] <niuq> preaction: it should shows a program for samba administration

[02:56] <Shpoo1> Can the OSX Leopard Dock images be used for AWN?

[02:57] <wday> Question - I have my laptop (<IP_ADDRESS>) connected to my desktop eth2 (<IP_ADDRESS>) which is serving the internet through eth1 (<IP_ADDRESS> to <IP_ADDRESS>). However, I cannot ssh from <IP_ADDRESS> to my desktop (at neither <IP_ADDRESS> nor <IP_ADDRESS>). I'm baffled, I can access the internet fine from <IP_ADDRESS> and ping my desktop, why no ssh?
[02:57] <Romina> ok
[02:57] <Romina> thx
[02:58] <DakoGahiTaas> CochiseIRL, whice release would you suggest?
[02:58] <niuq> preaction: yeah, i already did that
[02:58] <buttercups> Romina, gaim its just a dummy package , install pidgin
[02:59] <saltydav> alright , is there a way to install gusty complete new without a cd?
[02:59] <preaction> niuq, so you installed netkit-inetd and it isn't working? put your /etc/inetd.conf somewhere
[02:59] <somethingelse> i need little help...i'm trying to do  a emerge -u world but when it tries to build pango it fails
[02:59] <somethingelse> doesn't give me a very clear error...
[02:59] <preaction> somethingelse, this is ubuntu, not gentoo
[02:59] <niuq> preaction: you want me to pastbin?
[02:59] <somethingelse> oops...my bad :)
[02:59] <somethingelse> sorry
[02:59] <preaction> niuq, that would be ideal, yes.

[03:00] <twentysix> CochiseIRL:  back yet?
[03:01] <brownie17> i really regret upgrading to gutsy
[03:01] <DakoGahiTaas> CochiseIRL, which release would you advice or suggest? ubuntu 6.06 lts? or ubuntu 7.10?
[03:01] <brownie17> ffmpeg used to have xvid support, but now that i've upgraded it all of a sudden decides it doesn't. how do i fix this?
[03:01] <damianl> hi i just got windows shell running in wine
[03:02] <thejusticecow> would sudo apt-get install xfce-desktop work? or will i kill my os?
[03:02] <damianl> just wondering if theres a way to make the gnome panels dissapear off a certain desktop
[03:02] <preaction> niuq, inetd is running? /usr/sbin/tcpd and /usr/sbin/swat both exist?
[03:02] <damianl> so my second desktop can be basically windows
[03:02] <damianl> "workspace"
[03:02] <excalibas> do i need to register a website to acess my home ftp throu the internet?
[03:03] <niuq> preaction: yes it is running, and those both exists
[03:03] <preaction> niuq, change "nowait.400" to just "nowait" and restart inetd
[03:03] <twentysix> anybody know why it won't let me enable Normal or Advanced desktop??
[03:03] <niuq> preaction: ok
[03:03] <twentysix> sorry, normal or extra desktop???
[03:03] <dustan> sorry i'm new, is there a way to patch a driver without "sudo make modules" for the whole /linux-source directory? just a link to a tutorial would be great.
[03:03] <Markov> hi'a. anyone know how i can prevent internet network activity from being routed through my vpn?
[03:03] <niuq> preaction: btw with netstat how can i check if xinetd is running?
[03:03] <drifterz> I don't have System -> Preferences -> Compiz Config. What were the changes in 7.10 that made this happen and how do I fix it. I just don't know how to setup compizfusion in Ubuntu.
[03:03] <preaction> niuq, if that doesn't work, make sure /etc/services contains "swat"
[03:03] <damianl>  just wondering if theres a way to make the gnome panels dissapear off a certain workspace
[03:04] <brownie17> how long should it take on a 2.4ghz cpu to compile ffmpeg? because so far it's already taken about 15 mins
[03:04] <preaction> niuq, we're not doing xinetd, we're doing inetd, which you should've installed from the link i gave you
[03:04] <bacjon> i'm having trouble installing ubuntu on my virtual machine. i got it to load and got the boot menu ( my choices are [start or install ubuntu], [start ubuntu in safe graphics mode] [install with driver update cd] [OEM install (for manufacturers)], [check for defects], [memory test], [boot from first hard disk]) and i can move the highlight from one choice to the other but when i press enter it does'nt do anything
[03:04] <niuq> preaction: i actually installed inetd
[03:05] <niuq> preaction: mmm let me check give me a sec
[03:05] <saltydav> alright , is there a way to install gusty complete new without a cd?
[03:05] <preaction> niuq, it might be prudent to remove xinetd so it doesn't conflict. and (x)inetd doesn't listen on any ports by itself, netstat won't show it, use "ps ax | grep 'inetd'"
[03:05] <bacjon> ideas why wont work?
[03:06] <twentysix> anybody know why it won't let me enable Normal or Extra desktop? and why i can't find Compiz even though it says it's installed when i apt-get?
[03:06] <drifterz> Will the package gnome-compiz-manager work with what comes installed with 7.10, which I believe is compizfusion or is it only for compiz not fusion?
[03:06] <e> where in /dev is my cd burner located?
[03:07] <niuq> preaction: i removed nowait.400 for nowait
[03:07] <preaction> niuq, did you restart inetd? did it work?
[03:08] <niuq> preaction: ok i think inetd is running, from the output of the command
[03:08] <niuq> preaction: i restarted inetd and didn't work
[03:08] <Matt_> Hello
[03:08] <niuq> preaction: i'll remove xinetd
[03:08] <YellowGTO> Can anyone help me a little bit
[03:08] <brownie17> k guys, i managed to get ffmpeg to say it has xvid support, but now it says it doesn't support aac?
[03:08] <YellowGTO> ?
[03:08] <preaction> niuq, can you run /usr/sbin/swat from a terminal?
[03:08] <YellowGTO> 1st install of linux on a Laptop :-X
[03:09] <niuq> preaction: yes but i get no response
[03:09] <niuq> preaction: now i just removed xinetd
[03:09] <CochiseIRL> DakoGahiTaas, 7.10
[03:09] <preaction> niuq, it just sits there and does nothing?
[03:10] <niuq> preaction: right
[03:10] <BigBoned> damn so many opless channels
[03:10] <niuq> preaction: that's exactly what it does
[03:10] <BigBoned> i wonder why
[03:10] <preaction> niuq, let it run and then try visiting that URL
[03:10] <niuq> preaction: ok
[03:10] <Guerra> Sigh. I can't for the life of me figure this out.
[03:10] <BigBoned> what is it
[03:11] <twentysix> CochiseIRL: when i try the command for compiz on the link you gave me, i get wallpaper and cursor and that's it, i have to ctrl-alt-backspace to get out of it
[03:11] <Guerra> BigBoned, I'm trying to get GRUB to triple boot properly. It boots ubuntu and vista just fine, but won't boot XP. It keeps giving me an error 21. Says selected disk does not exist
[03:11] <brownie17> this is the command i used to configure ffmpeg, but now it says it needs aac support, what have i done wrong? "sudo ./configure --enable-gpl --enable-pp --enable-pthreads         --enable-libogg --enable-liba52 --enable-libdts         --enable-dc1394 --enable-libgsm --disable-debug --enable-libmp3lame         --enable-libfaad --enable-libfaac --enable-xvid --enable-x264"
[03:11] <drifterz> compizconfig-settings-manager vs gnome-compiz-manager?
[03:11] <Guerra> BigBoned, any idea?
[03:12] <BigBoned> Guerra: what did you set the partitions with and each for what?
[03:12] <CochiseIRL> twentysix, leave compiz out for now and just use the new driver to get opengl and 3d rendering and your dual montiors working
[03:12] <CochiseIRL> twentysix, brb
[03:12] <twentysix> ok
[03:12] <niuq> preaction: nothing, btw, when i eliminated xinetd with dpkg -r xineted, /etc/init.d/inetd where gone too :S
[03:12] <preaction> niuq, did you then install netkit-inetd?
[03:13] <Guerra> BigBoned: I have XP 300 gb, single partition on primary SATA, on my IDE slave drive, I have ubuntu 10 gb root, 60 gb home, 1 gb swap, 80 gb vista
[03:13] <Guerra> those are the partitions, biggahed__
[03:13] <Guerra> oops
[03:13] <Guerra> bigboned
[03:14] <Guerra> How nice of him to leave like that. Sigh

[03:15] <Evanlec> anoyne know how i can move /boot to its own partition?
[03:15] <Guerra> Crankymonky: For the last week and a half, I've been trying to fix GRUB with very little help.
[03:15] <preaction> niuq, get inetutils-inetd
[03:15] <chuy_max> Guerra, ^^, yeah, linux is hardcore
[03:15] <Guerra> Ubuntu is suppose to be userfriendly.
[03:15] <twentysix> Lambuntu: even past that, Linux is made for those of us dedicated to having a secure, spyware and virus free system :)
[03:16] <niuq> preaction: ok
[03:16] <Crankymonky> Guerra, what
[03:16] <preaction> Guerra, it is, compared to most *nix flavors
[03:16] <twentysix> and Ubuntu is user friendly, you are just too impatient to do some reading it seems
[03:16] <Lambuntu> twentysix: No doubt.
[03:16] <zrabidweele> Do image maps work in firefox? I made a site using k image map editor... and it makes the html and then nothing... No buttons...
[03:16] <Crankymonky>  is wrong with grub atm?

[03:16] <Crankymonky> cizarr, remove the cd from your source list

[03:21] <damianl> np
[03:21] <preaction> niuq, it would've been possible to get xinetd to work with swat, but that you'd have to configure manually.

[03:24] <m11> how can i copy whole install cd content to folder ?
[03:24] <kbidd> sakogti, if you have the previous version, you can do a "sudo update-manager -d" for upgrading to the new version.
[03:24] <Optimus55> does anyone here use ubuntu on an HP laptop?
[03:25] <preaction> niuq, you installed the standard "linux" inetd (i think, i don't know). "xinetd" was created to fix some legacy problems with inetd, including confusing configuration and i think some security issues (which /usr/sbin/tcpd also protects against)
[03:25] <preaction> niuq, the other choice there was the openbsd-inetd, but i'm not familiar with that one. they all do the same thing
[03:26] <BigBoned> hey, where is the theme directory????? i need to install a window border theme
[03:26] <MrYou> i installed the nvidia-glx-new and played around with screend and graphics then GDM won't boot so reinstalled nvidia-glx GDM won't start if restricted driver is enabled... what could possibly wrong ?
[03:26] <m11> how can i copy whole install cd content to folder ?
[03:27] <niuq> preaction: mmm ok, well the point is that it worked, i really appreciate it
[03:27] <niuq> preaction: btw, i apologize for my english
[03:27] <sakogti> is virtualbox available on the 64bit Ubuntu?
[03:27] <Optimus55> does anyone use an HP laptop?
[03:27] <flush> hey when you create a torrent file with azureus theres a checkbox "add multi-tracker information for the torrent" what does this mean
[03:27] <preaction> i need to stop giving ubuntu advice while i'm working with my OSX system, i can't give good advice when i can't see what other people see
[03:27] <Evanlec> sakogti, yes im using it right now
[03:27] <preaction> niuq, i honestly can't tell that english isn't your first language
[03:28] <scguy318> sakogti: yes
[03:28] <BigBoned> preaction: hey do you know where the theme directory is for ubuntu??
[03:28] <twentysix> anyone know why my external USB HDD will mount in Ubuntu, but not my internal HDD?
[03:28] <patricknev> how do you change the permissions on a folder
[03:28] <sakogti> have u tried compiz as well? I want to install compiz fusion + virtualbox + vista on the ubuntu64 os
[03:28] <scguy318> patricknev: right click the folder, properties
[03:28] <preaction> BigBoned, it's considered rude to ping someone when they are not speaking to you
[03:28] <Evanlec> sakogti, yep, everything there should be fine
 chmod
[03:28] <scguy318> patricknev: command-line chmod -R
[03:28] <sakogti> sweeeeeeet
[03:28] <Evanlec> sakogti, almost every package for 32bit version is available for 64-bit
[03:28] <BigBoned> pfff
[03:28] <BigBoned> im cool wit it
[03:28] <sakogti> Evan, have you used Archlinux by any chance?
[03:29] <godzirra> howdy folks.  Anyone have any ideas why my keyboard shortcuts wouldnt work for my sound?
[03:29] <niuq> preaction: ^_^ good to know
[03:29] <niuq> preaction: have a nice day
[03:29] <godzirra> It worked in feisty, but doesnt work in gutsy.
[03:29] <kbidd> godzirra, i'm having the same problem -- what kind of keyboard do you use?
[03:29] <Evanlec> sakogti, i havent, why?
[03:29] <twentysix> anyone know why my external USB HDD will mount in Ubuntu, but not my internal HDD?
[03:29] <MrYou> i installed the nvidia-glx-new and played around with screen and graphics then GDM won't boot so reinstalled nvidia-glx GDM won't start if restricted driver is enabled... what could possibly wrong ?
[03:30] <sakogti> just curious, I am debating whether to install ubuntu or archlinux right now ;(
[03:30] <godzirra> kbidd: its a laptop
[03:30] <SunnyDaze> MrYou, Have you tried running Envy to install your 3D drivers?  It worked for me on a system that didn't work by enabling the restricted driver.
[03:30] <Fizzle> question: if i disable my network manager applet on startup, will that leave me without internet? or will it just keep the icon out of the system tray?
[03:30] <bruenig> !envy | SunnyDaze shhhh
[03:30] <ubotu> SunnyDaze shhhh: envy is not needed or supported. Use the Resticted Manager to install binary drivers and see « /msg ubotu binarydriver »
[03:30] <godzirra> kbidd: it actually even worked in my old gutsy install... just not since I reinstalled... its very odd.
[03:30] <Evanlec> sakogti, are u new to linux?
[03:30] <sakogti> no
[03:30] <kbidd> godzirra, yeah, my media keys randomly stopped working after an update.
[03:30] <Evanlec> sakogti, what flavors u used before?
 : it used to worked... i just tried the new glx driver and now GDM wont start if restricted driver is enabled...
[03:31] <sakogti> slackware, ubuntu, archlinux
[03:31] <Evanlec> sakogti, oh heh
[03:31] <Evanlec> sakogti, well i'll tell ya that ubuntu 7.10 is an excellent distro

[03:31] <godzirra> kbidd: hrm... thats odd.
[03:31] <MasterShrek> sakogti, id go with slackware :)

[03:31] <sakogti> heh i have a brand new laptop though master!
[03:31] <MasterShrek> sakogti, have u used slack 12.0?
[03:32] <Kingbuzzo> !nosound
[03:32] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nosound - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[03:32] <SunnyDaze> sakogti, yes, virtualbox is available in 64 bit.  I just looked.
[03:32] <sakogti> no
[03:32] <sakogti> i like arch more than slack
[03:32] <sakogti> tbh
[03:32] <MasterShrek> sakogti, slack 12 = :)
[03:32] <sakogti> cuz of pacman
[03:32] <Kingbuzzo> so um, anyone know how to get sound from my audigy 1?

[03:33] <scguy318> fatcatmatt: check Demonoid
[03:33] <godzirra> ubuntu_Newbie200: there's a bug.  Give me one sec to find thje page on it.
[03:33] <MasterShrek> Evanlec, theyve had a 2.6 kernel for a long time, it jsut wasnt default, very easy to install though, their software isnt behind the times anymore really
[03:33] <ubuntu_Newbie200> ausome
[03:33] <Fizzle> if i disable my network manager applet on startup, will that leave me without internet? or will it just keep the icon out of the system tray?
[03:33] <scguy318> fatcatmatt: a lot of Mac OS  X torrents there
[03:33] <Crankymonky> !postbin | Crankymonky
[03:33] <fatcatmatt> has anybody ever tried putting mac os x leopard on their x86 machine?
[03:33] <Evanlec> MasterShrek, i used slackware many years ago, back then it was the best, but i dont think so anyore
[03:33] <jrib> fatcatmatt: you're offtopic
[03:33] <fatcatmatt> my apologies jlib
[03:33] <SunnyDaze> Optimus, I use a Compaq Laptop, which is very similar to HP.  However, it's not the brand name that is important, it's the hardware.    You can first start by providing a model number, and then people can look up the specs to see what kind of network card, processor, sound care, etc...etc.
[03:34] <Madpilot> fatcatmatt, piracy is never ontopic here.
[03:34] <kitche> Evanlec sort of offtopic but no distro is the best anyways
[03:34] <fatcatmatt> madpilot: who said i was talking about piracy?
[03:34] <ubuntu_Newbie200> try before you buy ?
[03:34] <Evanlec> kitche, well yea i spose
[03:34] <MasterShrek> one of these days ill format my ubuntu partition and install slamd64 12.0 on it
[03:34] <Evanlec> kitche, but it was considered to be the most robust
[03:34] <MrYou> i installed the nvidia-glx-new and played around with screen and graphics then GDM won't boot so reinstalled nvidia-glx GDM won't start if restricted driver is enabled... what could possibly wrong ? note: my nvidia-glx works before.
[03:34] <fatcatmatt> madpilot: there has to be a beta or a trial out there somewhere
[03:34] <Madpilot> fatcatmatt, "where can i get an iso of mac os x leopard to try?"
[03:34] <twentysix> fatcatmatt: afaik the only way to put OSX on an x86 machine is via hacking OSX, which is piracy.
[03:34] <ubuntu_Newbie200> to TRY is the key word
[03:35] <fatcatmatt> trying is not wrong or piracy
[03:35] <Madpilot> fatcatmatt, regardless, this is not an OSX channel.
[03:35] <twentysix> what Madpilot said
[03:35] <godzirra> Anyone here who can add to the bot?
[03:36] <fatcatmatt> wow...i have never seen such a rundown ubuntu room.  i'm outta here.
[03:36] <godzirra> Good riddance. :)
[03:36] <twentysix> can anyone tell me why i can not move or delete files from my external USB HDD?
[03:36] <ubuntu_Newbie200> is it mounted as readonly
[03:37] <twentysix> i don't know, how can i check?
[03:37] <ubuntu_Newbie200> ls -l and look at permissions
[03:37] <ubuntu_Newbie200> can you create files on it
[03:37] <twentysix> let me check
[03:37] <MasterShrek> type mount and it will tell you what its mount options were
[03:37] <osxdude> UbuntuPwns
[03:37] <m11> what command do you use to copy whole install CD content to a folder ?
[03:37] <ubuntu_Newbie200> cp -R
[03:38] <MasterShrek> m11, do u want an iso image of it or the files?
[03:38] <pushpopo> whats the command to mount a windows share in ubuntu?
[03:38] <ubuntu_Newbie200> wow anyone use google.com
[03:38] <MasterShrek> mount -t smbfs //server/share /mount/point
[03:38] <m11> MasterShrek: i need it for pxe boot , what is better ?
[03:38] <twentysix> /dev/sda1 on /media/FAT BOY type vfat (rw,nosuid,nodev,shortname=mixed,uid=1000,utf8,umask=077,usefree)
[03:38] <twentysix> binfmt_misc on /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc type binfmt_misc (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)
[03:38] <MasterShrek> m11, no idea
[03:38] <twentysix> sorry, didn't think 2 lines was worth pastebin ;)
[03:38] <osxdude> twentysix THere can't be a space between FAT and Boy
[03:38] <ubuntu_Newbie200> its a vfat filesystem
[03:39] <m11> MasterShrek: which works faster ? from iso or from files ?
[03:39] <twentysix> osxdude: how can i change that? that's left over from Win32
[03:39] <Johno> I need help with dial up... I'm using kppp and it is saying that  /etc/resolv.conf is missing or cant be read.....It says I need to create it with approporiate read and write permissings

[03:39] <osxdude> Hello all, I am trying to run an UnrealIRd but even though there is a config file in the directory of the ircd excuteable it will not detect it. How can I fix this?
[03:39] <MasterShrek> m11, i dont think theres much of a difference,
[03:39] <Madpilot> godzirra, what needs to be added to the bot?
[03:39] <MasterShrek> pushpopo, sudo apt-get install smbfs
[03:39] <osxdude> twentysix, edit your /etc/fstab
[03:39] <ubuntu_Newbie200> godzirra did you find that bug page for me?
[03:40] <ubuntu_Newbie200> vi /etc/fstab
[03:40] <m11> MasterShrek: ok, i think so too, do you know command to get all files transfered from cd to folder ?
[03:40] <Johno> can anyone help me with the /etc/resolv.conf?
[03:40] <ubuntu_Newbie200> sure whats up
[03:40] <MasterShrek> m11, cp -r /path/to/mounted/cdrom/* /path/to/dest/directory
[03:40] <ubuntu_Newbie200> didnt i say that?
[03:40] <twentysix> osxdude: i do not see the drive name anywhere in there.
[03:40] <m11> MasterShrek: many tnx
[03:40] <rebo123> hi everyone
[03:41] <godzirra> Madpilot: one sec, let me find the link again :)
[03:41] <ubuntu_Newbie200> guess not
[03:41] <Johno> It says I need to create the file... how do I do that?
[03:41] <ubuntu_Newbie200> touch
[03:41] <Crav> on my clock, i can't sync with net servers. I've enabled them, etc, but the button is still un-clickable
[03:41] <ubuntu_Newbie200> command
[03:41] <ubuntu_Newbie200> touch /etc/resolv.conf
[03:41] <rebo123> How come when I return from hibernation or suspend mode, my screen is all garbled?
[03:41] <rebo123> Is this a known bug?
[03:41] <ubuntu_Newbie200> might need sudo first

[03:41] <Romina> hi
[03:41] <Romina> Question:  I successfully installed the gimp   (package name "gimp") on gutsy gibbon.    Then I wanted to install       "libgimp-perl"   but this happened:          http://phpfi.com/274169    What may I do?
[03:41] <ubuntu_Newbie200> rebo123: yes  same issue with my laptop too
[03:41] <godzirra> Madpilot: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.alsa.user/28639 that details how to get around the snd_hda_intel bug that popped up somewhere in the recent updates of gutsy.

[03:42] <osxdude> Hello all, I am trying to run an UnrealIRd but even though there is a config file in the directory of the ircd excuteable it will not detect it. How can I fix this? In other words, where do I put the configuration file?
[03:42] <godzirra> Madpilot: since updating a bunch of packages (I'm not sure which ones) it apparently looks for the snd_hda_intel module in the wrong place and so never loads it.
[03:42] <ubuntu_Newbie200> sudo touch /etc/resolv.conf
[03:42] <Madpilot> godzirra, interesting. Hadn't heard of that bug.
[03:42] <godzirra> Madpilot: Oddly enough, I burned my CD the day that gutsy was released...  and it worked fine.
[03:42] <ubuntu_Newbie200> yea my sound is crapped because of it
[03:42] <ganjistus> Do Androids dream of electronic sheep?
[03:43] <godzirra> I reinstalled it after removing it a while ago, (reinstalled today) and it didnt work.
[03:43] <godzirra> Same CD.
[03:43] <Johno> Ubuntu_newbie: didn't work
[03:43] <ganjistus> hi jimmy
[03:43] <ubuntu_Newbie200> do you have the intel-hda too? what is your pc im on a T61 laptop
[03:43] <zoidberg_> hey guys i just upgraded to Gutsy on my dell latitude d600 laptop
[03:43] <godzirra> Madpilot: here's the bug:  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/120305
[03:43] <godzirra> well, one of them...
[03:43] <zoidberg_> when i log in it logs me out back to the log in screen
[03:43] <MasterShrek> my snd_hda_intel doesnt work anymore either.... :(
[03:43] <Madpilot> godzirra, thanks
[03:43] <zoidberg_> i then logged in in the failsafe Gnome session

[03:44] <zoidberg_> can someone tell me what the problem might me and how i coudl fix it?
[03:44] <ubuntu_Newbie200> ive since thought all i want for christmas is my sound in gutsy
[03:44] <godzirra> and that link I posted fixed it, if you just symlink it.
[03:44] <ubuntu_Newbie200> hmm
[03:44] <MasterShrek> zoidberg_, probabyl something to do with your .gnome2 folders, move or remove them and try again
[03:45] <ubuntu_Newbie200> where did you see on that page a ln -s
[03:45] <Johno> How do I create the file?
[03:45] <zoidberg_> MasterShrek, where is this .gnome2 folders?
[03:45] <MasterShrek> my snd_hda_intel module gets loaded, it just doesnt work :( works fine on my custom kernel though
[03:45] <ubuntu_Newbie200> you can do a sudo gedit /etc/resolv.conf
[03:45] <jrib> Romina: interesting, you sure the gimp package can use that?
[03:45] <MasterShrek> zoidberg_, in your home folder (/home/user/)
[03:46] <godzirra> ubuntu_Newbie200: Crap.. thats the wrong page.

[04:03] <MasterShrek> sweet Evanlec, i upgraded to 2.6.24-rc1-git14 :)

[04:03] <wade> SpeakerMania: yep
[04:03] <jojoman02> how do i change the icon sizes on the  menu items in the applications menu, they are too big for my tiny screen??
[04:04] <Evanlec> MasterShrek, anything interesting in there? ive never used git before ;p
[04:04] <SpeakerMania> wade, Your resolution is stuck at what again?
[04:04] <wade> 640x480
[04:04] <MasterShrek> Evanlec, b43 driver, supposed to replace bcm43xx i guess
[04:04] <SpeakerMania> wade, you have no other options?

[04:04] <ganjistus> is gcc 4.3 using sse4?
[04:04] <Evanlec> MasterShrek, ah, well any added wireless functionality is a welcome change
[04:05] <mastershrekhelpa> You need madwifi drivers
[04:05] <MasterShrek> the_bull, you have an atheros card as well, i dont know much about them, never used em, that goes for you too mastershrekhelpa
[04:05] <alex__> Hey, I've got a quick question.
[04:05] <mike5805> go ahead alex
[04:05] <alex__> I tried changing my screen resolution, and it says that it changed.
[04:05] <wade> SpeakerMana, thats all i have under screen resolutions (640x480 60Hz)
[04:05] <alex__> But nothing actually changed.
[04:05] <MasterShrek> crimsun, yea im not having very good luck with it, went back to default gutsy kernel
[04:05] <Evanlec> MasterShrek, i want them to merge the ra2x00 drivers
[04:05] <mike5805> hmm
[04:05] <sakogtii> do i have to do anything special when paritioning if i plan on running virtualbox with windows vista on ubuntu 64bit?
[04:05] <mastershrekhelpa> umm i swtiched my name to mastershrekhelpa from ubuntu_newbie200
[04:05] <alex__> It gives me the box saying "Do you want to keep this resolution? Reverting back...", but it doesn't change anything in the first place.
[04:05] <SpeakerMania> wade, okay. Go ahead and open up a terminal (Applications >> Accessories >> Terminal) and type in sduo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:05] <mastershrekhelpa> lol
[04:05] <sakogtii> should i allocate more than normal for /root?
[04:05] <MasterShrek> .24 probably Evanlec, its got lots of upgrades i guess
[04:05] <mike5805> have you tried to log out and log back in?
[04:06] <alex__> I have not tried that. I will try that presently.
[04:06] <Evanlec> sakogti, no you dont
[04:06] <sakogtii> so 15GB for / is more than enough? and then i can install windows vista in home?
[04:06] <axjv> Hey, can someone send me a PM? I'd like to test something.
[04:06] <Evanlec> MasterShrek, yea, well i fixed that problem by just swapping my wifi card like i told u ;p
[04:06] <mike5805> yes pleny
[04:06] <mastershrekhelpa> how did i hide the joined and quit messages on Xchat
[04:06] <MasterShrek> oh yea Evanlec, working good huh?
[04:07] <gusto5> MasterShrek, i tried the emerald --replace but it doesnt seem to work
[04:07] <SpeakerMania> wade, that is sudo
[04:07] <SpeakerMania> wade, sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:07] <wade> SpeakerMania, ok got that open
[04:07] <MasterShrek> gusto5, hmm, it should, thats what i always did, try logging out and back in and seeing if it will work then
[04:07] <jadedangel> has anyone had any luck working on getting drivers for usb wireless network adapters?
[04:07] <Evanlec> MasterShrek, yea well has driver built into kernel, its an older cisco aironet card, only 802.11b but i don care
[04:07] <Crozar> ?
[04:07] <mastershrekhelpa> what usb adapter?
[04:07] <gusto5> MasterShrek, logged out, even restarted system
[04:08] <jadedangel> wireless network
[04:08] <mastershrekhelpa> yea which one
[04:08] <SpeakerMania> wade, scroll to near the bottom and find the section that says Monitor
[04:08] <MasterShrek> meh Evanlec, internet is internet, i use a vnc server on my slack server for my 'dirty work'
[04:08] <jadedangel> its an off brand with a realtech chipset
[04:08] <Evanlec> MasterShrek, yep, 11mbps is fine for me
[04:08] <MasterShrek> gusto5, dunno what to tell ya then, it should work that way
[04:08] <Evanlec> MasterShrek, u ever tried the -mm patch?
[04:08] <mastershrekhelpa> mastershrek ive been trying to get freenx but cant seem to find nxserver.deb to download
[04:08] <wade> SpeakerMania, found Monitor		"VA712b"
[04:08] <MasterShrek> Evanlec, i dont think so
[04:09] <mastershrekhelpa> lspci
[04:09] <jadedangel> so i was wondering if i could just use a driver that uses the same chipset would that work?
[04:09] <MasterShrek> never used it mastershrekhelpa
[04:09] <Evanlec> mastershrekhelpa, im lookin for the same thing, can u change your nick please?
[04:09] <SpeakerMania> wade, in that section are the lines "HorizSync" and "VertRefresh" there?
[04:09] <Evanlec> jadedangel, yes that should work, chipset is what couts
[04:09] <Evanlec> jadedangel, *counts
[04:09] <jadedangel> ok
[04:10] <jadedangel> now to make sure i am using the right chipset and see if i can get the driver
[04:10] <MasterShrek> Evanlec, anything special in the -mm?
[04:10] <LM22> hello I need to get an oscilloscope program for a project
[04:10] <wade> SpeakerMania, i dont see any lines with that info
[04:10] <MasterShrek> wooh netsplit
[04:11] <mastershrekhelpa> lol
[04:11] <LM22> can anyone recommend a good oscilloscope program?
[04:11] <Evanlec> MasterShrek, there's a LOT of (NEW) and (EXPERIMENTAL) stuff in it from what ive looked at
[04:11] <MasterShrek> !oscilloscope
[04:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about oscilloscope - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:11] <MasterShrek> Evanlec, ill take a look as i was just about to compile <IP_ADDRESS> once again...
[04:11] <Evanlec> MasterShrek, supports reiser4, which is why i grabbed it, but it has some interesting performance options under processor section
[04:11] <SpeakerMania> wade, okay. That si your problem. You now need to find those values online for your monitor. You are looking for the Horizontal Frequency and the Vertical Frequency/Refresh rate. If you need help toss me your monitors info and I'll try and find it.
[04:11] <LM22> they have tons of free ones for windows, but I've got ubuntu on my laptop, and don't want to have to install windows for this presentation
[04:12] <mastershrekhelpa> use google docs presentation
[04:12] <MasterShrek> LM22, whats oscilloscope? like a slideshow? u can use open office presentation
[04:12] <Evanlec> MasterShrek, i was curious tho, i patched mine against 2.6.23, i thot thats what u were sposed to do if u were gonna patch, rather than use <IP_ADDRESS> (since its already patched??)
[04:12] <MasterShrek> google docs ftw!
[04:12] <LM22> no like I think i found one
[04:12] <MasterShrek> Evanlec, maybe, i dont konw for sure
[04:13] <Evanlec> MasterShrek, that confused me
[04:13] <MasterShrek> never used a -mm before
[04:13] <MasterShrek> maybe ill just stick with the regular <IP_ADDRESS> for now, waiting impatiently for .24 to be released
[04:13] <Evanlec> MasterShrek, but about kernels in general, isnt the .1 the patch level?
[04:13] <MasterShrek> it will be at least a month for that tho i suppose, maybe before kde4 :P
[04:13] <gusto5> MasterShrek, i installed compizconfig-setting-manager and everything works now, thanks
[04:13] <MasterShrek> Evanlec, yes
[04:14] <Evanlec> MasterShrek, right, so therefore ur sposed to use the baselevel 2.6.23 if ur gona patch it? i dunno
[04:14] <MasterShrek> gusto5, good news, ill keep that in mind if people have the same problem, i didnt know the settings manager would fix it, must be a dependency or something
[04:15] <axjv> A quick question: What does patching the kernel help accomplish? Bugfixes? Stability?
[04:15] <MasterShrek> Evanlec, not necessarily, im sure the -mm would patch against the .1 just fine, but i may be wrong, im not a kernel guru :P
[04:15] <Evanlec> MasterShrek, yea me either ;p
[04:15] <MasterShrek> axjv, hardware support also
[04:15] <wade> SpeakerMania, its a VA712b LCD monitor...
[04:15] <axjv> MasterShrek: Kernel patches come with drivers?
[04:15] <Evanlec> MasterShrek, well u should try -mm patch, its right there on front page of kernel.org so it must be fairly good
[04:16] <MasterShrek> axjv, sometimes
[04:16] <MasterShrek> Evanlec, lol, "if its there, it must be good"
[04:16] <SpeakerMania> wade, made by ViewSonic, yes?
[04:16] <Bruno_> i want to download virtualbox from synaptic but it says it could have malicious software, should i install it anyway?
[04:16] <axjv> MasterShrek: Do you know if they have an update for the intel driver? The one in the ubuntu repository is a little outdated.
[04:16] <Evanlec> MasterShrek, well okay, but i mean, its in common use is what i meant
[04:16] <MasterShrek> Evanlec, ill give it a go :) gonna patch it against <IP_ADDRESS>
[04:16] <Lexda> Err. Ok, another problem...
[04:16] <swaydam> anyone want to join our little coding crew?
[04:16] <MasterShrek> axjv, what intel driver?
[04:16] <wade> SpeakerMania, yeah its a viewsonic
[04:16] <Lexda> (This is alex_ from before)
[04:16] <Evanlec> MasterShrek, ok, good idea, i'll try against 2.6.23
[04:16] <axjv> MasterShrek: xorg-xserver-video-intel
[04:16] <Bruno_> i want to download virtualbox from synaptic but it says it could have malicious software, should i install it anyway?
[04:16] <jadedangel> i would but i dont know shit
[04:17] <Lexda> I had changed my video drivers 'cause I thought they might be wrong, and the cause of my screen troubles.
[04:17] <SpeakerMania> wade, they make nice monitors. I have one myself, usinfg it right now. ANyway, I have the information pulled up, one second...
[04:17] <axjv> MasterShrek: I currently have to use i810 because intel doesn't allow the screen to blank when I close my laptop lid
[04:17] <Lexda> Unfortunately, changing them screwed something up royally.
[04:17] <Bruno_> i want to download virtualbox from synaptic but it says it could have malicious software, should i install it anyway?
[04:17] <MasterShrek> axjv, i dont know, i really dont follow intel hardware at all
[04:17] <wade> SpeakerMania, awsome thx...
[04:17] <MasterShrek> Bruno_, up to you
[04:17] <Evanlec> Bruno_, do u have 3rd party repos? its in the official
[04:17] <Lexda> I can "get into" Ubuntu, but I can't see anything. I get the noises at the login screen, but can't see anything. Anybody know how to change the driver back, or use a restore function or something?
[04:17] <kahrytan> Bruno_,  if it is from official repo, it couldnt be
[04:18] <brownie17> compiled ffmpeg from source because the repo version didn't support xvid and h264. when trying to use it to convert a vid  command used was http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/43503/. got error 'unkown encoder; aac'
[04:18] <brownie17> anyone know what the problem is?
[04:18] <axjv> MasterShrek: Oh; one more question... What advantages does the Pulse Sound System have? I think it was called that...
[04:18] <MasterShrek> Lexda, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:18] <Evanlec> Bruno_, but as for virtualbox itself, its fine, i use it myself, nver seen that warning before tho
[04:18] <MasterShrek> axjv, i dont know, ive heard of it but i know nothing about it
[04:18] <Bruno_> Evanlec: ok thanks
[04:18] <CochiseIRL> Bruno_, its ok, add the virtualbox repo tough to get the newest version it works fine with gutsy
[04:18] <Bruno_> CochiseIRL: ok will do
[04:18] <SpeakerMania> wade, okay, do this carefully. maintaining the structure of xorg.conf, ie note the indents, ad the following line in the monitor section under what is there: HorizSync 30-82
[04:18] <Lexda> Shrek, how do I enter that in without being able to see the GUI? It's just a black screen with a small tan bar at the top.

[04:23] <MasterShrek> Lexda, yes you will
[04:23] <MasterShrek> axjv, do you have a patch to apply to it?
[04:23] <Evanlec> matx, yeaa, whats the server names ?
[04:23] <Lexda> Well, ok then. I'll go try that now. Thanks for the help :)
[04:23] <matx> not sure :(
[04:23] <axjv> MasterShrek: If by patch you mean newer version o.o
[04:23] <MasterShrek> dyndns is free also
[04:23] <Evanlec> matx, i cant even open any websites right now so i cant look lol
[04:24] <Rogi> can someone point to a guide for ATI x800xl installation ?
[04:24] <Rogi> i get black screen
[04:24] <matx> ah, gimme a min i get them
[04:24] <Evanlec> MasterShrek, dyndns is for different purpose i think
[04:24] <MasterShrek> axjv, do you have a kernel patch that you want to apply to the kernel source? if u dont know then probaly not
[04:24] <axjv> MasterShrek: I just want to update my kernel to the latest stable. Is that possible?
[04:24] <MasterShrek> Evanlec, yea, opendns is for a dns server right?
[04:24] <CochiseIRL> Seivan|, its v0.2 released 19 oct
[04:24] <MasterShrek> axjv, yes, but if u dont konw what u are doing u have to be very careful, let me get you a link...
[04:24] <Seivan|> Cool :) but on their website there is 0.2.1
[04:25] <Evanlec> MasterShrek, its free dns servers u can use instead of your ip's to resolve hostnames
[04:25] <Evanlec> MasterShrek, *isp's
[04:25] <matx> Our nameservers are <IP_ADDRESS> and <IP_ADDRESS>.
[04:25] <MasterShrek> axjv, http://www.howtoforge.com/kernel_compilation_ubuntu
[04:25] <CochiseIRL> Seivan|, 0.2.1 is only a bugfix so 0.2 will have the same features
[04:25] <MasterShrek> Evanlec, yes dyndns is that too
[04:25] <Seivan|> CochiseIRL, okay, thanks for the help man, appriciate it
[04:25] <CochiseIRL> Seivan|, np
[04:25] <axjv> MasterShrek: That was really weird. I had that page already open in another tab, but I just didn't read it yet.
[04:26] <Evanlec> matx, those are the opendns servers?
[04:26] <matx> yer
[04:26] <Mystroth> SpeakerMania, its Wade... well it looks like that didnt work... cant use the GUI now
[04:26] <MasterShrek> axjv, thats the one i followed, you can skip the section about patching the kernel as you probably dont have any kernel patches to apply
[04:26] <CochiseIRL> Rogi, http://forlong.blogage.de/
[04:26] <SpeakerMania> Mystroth, what do you mean?  When you backed up xorg.conf, did you move it/rename it on accident?
[04:27] <apc> Can I ask for Ubuntu support here?
[04:28] <matx> maybe
[04:28] <CochiseIRL> Rogi, no do you have ubuntu on your hd at all
[04:28] <CochiseIRL> apc, yes you can
[04:28] <Rogi> CochiseIRL: no, ill use alt text install ... downloading now
[04:28] <MasterShrek> Evanlec, did u use patch -p1 ?
[04:28] <Rogi> CochiseIRL: cant start x during installation
[04:28] <apc> ConchiseIRL, how do I change my name in XChat IRC?
[04:28] <apc> :o
[04:28] <CochiseIRL> Rogi, ok or use vesa boot from the live cd
[04:28] <LM22> how do I tell what dma my sound card is
[04:28] <LM22> ?
[04:28] <MasterShrek> apc, type /nick nickname
[04:28] <Mystroth> SpeakerMania, um no i just made a copy... what was the path of the xorg.conf file again... ill open it up
[04:29] <Evanlec> MasterShrek, yea
[04:29] <axjv> MasterShrek: There is a chance my computer will 'splode if I mess up during the patch, correct?
[04:29] <Peddy> great thanks
[04:29] <CochiseIRL> apc, /nick name uwant
[04:29] <Peddy> :)
[04:29] <MasterShrek> Evanlec, ok, i never know what -p option to put :P
[04:29] <scottpc> hey everyone!
[04:29] <Evanlec> MasterShrek, bzcat | blah blah patch -p1
[04:29] <SpeakerMania> Mystroth, /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:29] <Rogi> CochiseIRL: vesa boot still give me black screen
[04:29] <SpeakerMania> Mystroth, WAIT
[04:29] <Rogi> :(
[04:29] <MasterShrek> axjv, not really, youll just have to get into your grub menu at boot and choose the old kernel
[04:29] <Evanlec> MasterShrek, i donno what it does either ;p
[04:29] <scottpc> I can't tell you how glad I am that I downloaded and started using Ubuntu Linux!
[04:29] <Peddy> Ok. Now what I came here for. My '/' is 100% full. How Can I free up some space?
[04:29] <chetnick> does anyone have a problem with bridge networking in vmware workstation on Gutsy???
[04:29] <SpeakerMania> Mystroth, can you recall the errors?
[04:29] <CochiseIRL> Rogi, use alt cd so and boot in recovery mode and follow that guide
[04:29] <CochiseIRL> gotta run
[04:29] <scottpc> I have a problem trying to get a printer to run if anyone has any ideas...
[04:29] <Rogi> thanks
[04:30] <Peddy> Bridge networking is fine for me in gutsy VM workstation
[04:30] <scottpc> It's the only problem left to solve...
[04:30] <Peddy> chetnick it works for me
[04:30] <matx> scottpc, using cups?
[04:30] <Mystroth> SpeakerMania, i can reboot and quote them verbatim if you want
[04:30] <axjv> MasterShrek: Wait, I think the newest version comes as a patch...
[04:30] <scottpc> I can print to PDF just fine, RealPlayer streaming is coming in great...
[04:30] <LM22> !dma
[04:30] <ubotu> dma is Direct Memory Access/Addressing. It makes hard disks & optical drives transfer data faster, and is almost always enabled in Ubuntu 6.06. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DMA
[04:30] <scottpc> Yes - cups
[04:30] <scottpc> but keep in mind - I'm a total noob
[04:30] <SpeakerMania> Mystroth, if you can please do.
[04:30] <matx> ^_^ yay
[04:30] <axjv> MasterShrek: patch-<IP_ADDRESS>
[04:30] <scottpc> be gentle with me
[04:30] <Evanlec> axjv, <IP_ADDRESS> is the latest stable version
[04:30] <scottpc> lol
[04:31] <LM22> anyone here know how I can tell what my sound cards dma is
[04:31] <LM22> ?
[04:31] <Evanlec> axjv, u can get that version without needing to patch it
[04:31] <MasterShrek> axjv, you can download the full versoin of that kernel also, ill link you...
[04:31] <scottpc> well, maybe not a total noob - but rusty enough
[04:31] <Peddy> Can somebody help me? My disk space in / is full
[04:31] <matx> lol
[04:31] <Peddy> in '/'
[04:31] <Peddy> Don't laugh :p
[04:31] <Peddy> ;)
[04:31] <Dr_Willis> could see whats in /var/cache/apt and clean it out
[04:31] <scottpc> I have a Brother IntelliFax 4100
[04:31] <axjv> Evanlec: It's safer to patch cause you won't mess with your old kernel?
[04:31] <axjv> Evanlec: I mean, not to patch
[04:31] <Evanlec> Peddy, thats a little bit of a problem, u should uninstall some applications and then boot off livecd and resize your / partition
[04:31] <Peddy> Thanks Dr_Willis
[04:31] <scottpc> and I got the download from brother.com - but it wasn't specifically for ubuntu
[04:32] <MasterShrek> axjv, it doesnt matter, you are patching the source, click the F next to the kernel link to get the full kernel source
[04:32] <Dr_Willis> Peddy how big is you hard drive / partition?
[04:32] <Evanlec> axjv, its safer just because u dont have to patch and risk screwing it up, none of this should touch your old kernel
[04:32] <Peddy> So, by uninstalling *any* application (installed through apt-get), will mu space be bigger?
[04:32] <matx> scottpc, cups using works fine, but i only used network printers
[04:32] <matx> *usually
[04:32] <Peddy> 273mb
[04:32] <smackswell_> #ubuntu-powerpc
[04:32] <Dr_Willis> Peddy MB? or GB?
[04:32] <scottpc> the brother is connected via USB - has no nwk connection on it
[04:32] <Peddy> MB
[04:32] <Peddy> is that small?
[04:32] <smackswell_> join #ubuntu-powerpc
[04:32] <d4rkmonkey> anyon know how I go about changing my MSN screen name in pidgin?
[04:33] <Dr_Willis> Peddy    You put / on its own partiton?
[04:33] <scizzo-> d4rkmonkey: in the account option
[04:33] <Peddy> /dev/sda2 is 273 megabytes
[04:33] <Peddy> that is, '/'
[04:33] <scizzo-> d4rkmonkey: top menu....account -> and then in there
[04:33] <Dr_Willis> Peddy i got over 500+ mb of just FONTS... :)
[04:33] <scottpc> I haven't used IRC since my unix account at school - ten years ago!
[04:33] <smackswell_> can anyone tell me how to join a particular room?
[04:33] <Evanlec> Peddy, that is MUCH too small
[04:33] <scottpc> anyway, I've gotten as far as to see the printer standing ready - but nothing happens.
[04:33] <matx> lol
[04:33] <Evanlec> Peddy, for root partition i'd say atleast 10gb
[04:33] <Mystroth> SpeakerMania, ok here goes "Failed to start the X server (your graphical interface), It is likely that it is not setup correctly. Would you like to view the X server output to diagnose the problem?"
[04:33] <Dr_Willis> Peddy  and whats your hard drive layout then ? /home and so forth?
[04:33] <Peddy> Ok. Can I resize it without losing data? I have a around 600gb free space
[04:34] <Evanlec> Peddy, yes, boot off your livecd or use the gparted live cd
[04:34] <Peddy> home is 100GB
[04:34] <SpeakerMania> Mystroth, yeah, do ahead and delete those two lines
[04:34] <SpeakerMania> go
[04:34] <axjv> MasterShrek: A symlink = ???
[04:34] <MasterShrek> Evanlec, its whining at me, wont make :(
[04:34] <monkey_instinct> how do i change the default brown color on ubuntu startup?
[04:34] <MasterShrek> axjv, yes, a symlink
[04:34] <Evanlec> MasterShrek, oh ya i had that problem, its just the mm patch
[04:34] <Peddy> When I boot from LiveCD, I cannot resize it. It thinks that is the max. Even when I have unallocated space.
[04:35] <Evanlec> MasterShrek, what u gotta do is edit the Makefile and find where it says Arch ?=
[04:35] <Peddy> is that normal?
[04:35] <Mystroth> SpeakerMania, when i added them i added quotes just like the other stuff... should i add it to the bottom of the monitor section or does it matter
[04:35] <MasterShrek> Evanlec, yea i noticed, how can i compile if it wont make? =P
[04:35] <Dr_Willis> Peddy i think you are using gparted wrongly
[04:35] <Dr_Willis> Peddy you need to shrink the partitions next to the /  then expand the / partition
[04:35] <jargonjustin> I've got a PCI ethernet card (linux compatible, worked under Debian Etch) which Ubuntu 7.10 doesn't see (not listed under ifconfig.)  Any ideas on how to make it work?
[04:35] <SpeakerMania> Mystroth, ah. no quotes. :) sorry, should have specified. and the bottom is good
[04:35] <Dr_Willis> or some how move partitions/shrink to get some free space next to the / partition
[04:35] <Peddy> what do you mean, 'next to the /'?
[04:36] <sx66xfce> how do you set up the GRUB for winxphome first instead of Ubuntu?
[04:36] <brokenbin> how do i change an environment variable?
[04:36] <Evanlec> MasterShrek, and then put in $(SUBARCH), so it will look like this:   ARCH		?= $(SUBARCH)
[04:36] <scottpc> after a few days of forced use - pretending I couldn't go back to windows - I have to admit that Linux is MUCH better.  I just wish this damned printer would work!
[04:36] <Evanlec> MasterShrek, he just forgot to specify the arch directory i read
[04:36] <brokenbin> does anyone have any idea?
[04:36] <Dr_Willis> In the partition layout   if / is first  the /home you will need to shrink HOME and move it to the 'righjt' to put the unallocated space next to the / then   resize /
[04:36] <underwatercow> Does anyone know where evolution saves the preferences and mail settings?
[04:36] <Peddy> hmm
[04:37] <brokenbin>  adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
[04:37] <brokenbin> anyone know how to do that?
[04:37] <Evanlec> underwatercow, ~/.evolution ?
[04:37] <Mystroth> SpeakerMania, ok removed the quotes tryin again
[04:37] <joshua__> can someone teach me how o set up "Azureus Torrent Client" according to these instructions " http://netforbeginners.about.com/gi/dynamic/offsite.htm?zi=1/XJ&sdn=netforbeginners&cdn=compute&tm=10&f=00&su=p284.8.150.ip_&tt=12&bt=1&bts=1&zu=http%3A//azureus.sourceforge.net/ " me 1st linux thing ive ever done
[04:37] <underwatercow> Evanleg: That's where pretty much everything else is, but the preferences don't seem to be saved there... I always have to re-enter them.
[04:37] <Peddy> so, all that I have to to is shrink /home, and then close that dialogue, and there will be some free space at '/'?
[04:37] <gusto5> MasterShrek, i figured out how to use themes with emerald theme manager, But it doesnt seem to want to theme everything (like "applications, place etc" arent themed)
[04:37] <brokenbin> am i just being ignored?
[04:37] <SpeakerMania> Does anyone know where to change the focus policy? via either GUI or command line
[04:37] <Evanlec> underwatercow, not sure then i just tried to use evolution today
[04:37] <Madpilot> nice big netsplit
[04:38] <joshua__> can someone teach me how o set up "Azureus Torrent Client" according to these instructions " http://netforbeginners.about.com/gi/dynamic/offsite.htm?zi=1/XJ&sdn=netforbeginners&cdn=compute&tm=10&f=00&su=p284.8.150.ip_&tt=12&bt=1&bts=1&zu=http%3A//azureus.sourceforge.net/ " me 1st linux thing ive ever done
[04:38] <Evanlec> brokenbin, its more likely that no one knows the answer to your question right now
[04:38] <biffhero> I can't "apt-get update", I get this error:  Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty/multiverse/source/Sources.gz Sub-process gzip returned an error code (1)  If I "wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty/multiverse/source/Sources.gz", I get a good .gz file
[04:38] <brokenbin> Evanlec, ic
[04:38] <Evanlec> joshua__, dont use azureus its crap, use Deluge
[04:38] <gusto5> hey joshua__
[04:38] <Peddy> So basically I have to shrink /home, and then enlarge /   ?
[04:38] <MasterShrek> Evanlec, im confused on that arch thing, should i set the environment variable SUBARCH to something or what?
[04:38] <brokenbin> Evanlec, suggestion as to where i should go?
[04:38] <underwatercow> Evanlec: thanks anyway
[04:39] <Evanlec> MasterShrek, edit the Makefile so that the line: ARCH looks like this:   ARCH		?= $(SUBARCH)
[04:39] <MasterShrek> ok :)
[04:39] <gusto5> brokenbin, if you want to use azureus anyway, sudo aptitude install azureus
[04:39] <Peddy> Thanks for j00r helps, I'm off to play with LiveCD and partitioning. :)
[04:39] <sx66xfce> How do you put winxp on top in the GRUB boot menu instead of Ubuntu linux.
[04:39] <matx> brokenbin,
[04:39] <Dr_Willis> Peddy after shrnking /home you will need to then enlarge /
[04:39] <matx> you can set env vars in your .bashrc file
[04:39] <Peddy> @Dr_Willis thanks.
[04:39] <Peddy> for your help :0
[04:39] <Peddy> :)
[04:39] <CyberMadz> i want to create document storage with folder permission.. i did this on microsoft windows 2003 server on my company and i want replace it with Ubuntu, well i want user can access through samba, example: use map network drive and must enter their username & password, if not.. only have access as guest.  I want the folder permission is inheritance to its subfolder, but i can set individual permission on its subfolder. How to do that? I want to manage the u
[04:40] <Dr_Willis> sx66xfce i alwas just edit the /boot/grub/menu.lst and uncomment the examplke windows entry. It lets you boot windows from hda1
[04:40] <brokenbin> gusto5, i don't want to use azureus, i need to compile gimpshop
[04:40] <Evanlec> strange, i seem to be unable to load any websites lol
[04:40] <gusto5> oh lol =P
[04:40] <gusto5> my bad
[04:40] <brokenbin> matx: yes...
[04:40] <gusto5> sorry, i meant joshua__ if you still want to use azureus, sudo aptitude install azureus will get you it
[04:40] <underwatercow> Is there an easy way to fix many files with capital extensions so that they will be lower case? Or would that require something like sed?
[04:41] <joshua__> PM with me
[04:41] <Mystroth> SpeakerMania, ok... well im back into the GUI but its not taking the new resolutions
[04:41] <Peddy> @ Grub Boot dude, you need to uncomment the windoze thing, then enter the hard-drive number. e.g. 0,0, would be HD 0 and Partition 0
[04:41] <Peddy> etc.
[04:41] <matx> underwatercow, rename might fix it
[04:41] <Dr_Willis> underwatercow google for some 'lowercase filename' scripts - thers proberly 100 ways to do it. the 'advanced bash scripting guide' i think has some example scripts also
[04:41] <Dr_Willis> underwatercow sed, awk, perl, use of 'tr' and so forth. :)
[04:41] <SpeakerMania> Mystroth, You mean no other resolutions are listed or they aren't taking effect?
[04:41] <underwatercow> Dr_Willis: thanks, I figured I could write my own script, but I'm just too lazy/busy at the moment ;-D
[04:41] <Peddy> cyas
[04:42] <Dr_Willis> underwatercow there also the rename utilities  'qmv' that i lilke :)
[04:42] <Mystroth> SpeakerMania, just not taking effect
[04:42] <MasterShrek> Evanlec, compiling now... :)
[04:42] <Dr_Willis> !find qmv
[04:42] <ubotu> File qmv found in renameutils
[04:42] <SpeakerMania> Mystroth, what happens?
[04:42] <Evanlec> MasterShrek, lol that was quick...did u check out any of the options?
[04:42] <MasterShrek> default ubuntu config, will take like 45 minutes, i should stop being so lazy and cut this thing down
[04:42] <MasterShrek> i skimmed through them
[04:42] <Dr_Willis> underwatercow it puts the files in the dir in a text editor you then edit the names how ya want.. and exit. it then changes them baseed on your edits. :)
[04:42] <Evanlec> MasterShrek, the tickless kernel thing looks kinda neat, better power use, but only good for laptops so i didnt use
[04:42] <Mystroth> the screen stays the same and asks if i want to keep the new resolution (nothing actually changes)
[04:43] <Evanlec> MasterShrek, not sure about the 2nd option
[04:43] <joshua__> where and how do i get and install sun java 1.5?
[04:43] <SpeakerMania> Mystroth, follow the very beginning of this article (running the autodetect script): https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[04:43] <smmagic> joshua__:why 1.5?
[04:43] <MasterShrek> Evanlec, yea i read about that for 24, but i also read that it doesnt make THAT much of a difference
[04:43] <MasterShrek> !java | joshua__
[04:43] <ubotu> joshua__: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[04:43] <axjv> MasterShrek: Only allowed lowercase alphanumerics, but it isn't accepting 'custom'
[04:44] <Mystroth> SpeakerMania, ok ill try that
[04:44] <joshua__> well frostwire wont open
[04:44] <Evanlec> MasterShrek, yea thats what i heard too
[04:44] <joshua__> and i think its the java
[04:44] <smmagic> Go to add/remove
