[19:54] <Ginger> shubbar, alright. Sounds good. thanks
[19:54] <Ozwaldca> i tried updating to v1.0.19
[19:54] <Ginger> Heh, its just finally time for another dual boot, Vista is driving me insane.
[19:54] <Ozwaldca> after a reboot it says there is no sound card installed
[19:54] <nikitis> Ozwaldca, only way i know is to go to alsa web page download driver/lib/utils and compile those three packages.
[19:55] <Ozwaldca> hehe i am quite new...  i thought i tired it  but obviioulsy it did not work
[19:55] <nikitis> Ozwaldca, linux has given up on those cards
[19:55] <Brucevdk> nillo: I don't know, I use Metacity. :-) Best bet is to Google around with the terms: compiz workspace names
[19:55] <jon23d> can anyone explain why a new install of 8.10 64 synaptic doesn't show all the packages that are available from apt-get?
[19:55] <Wolo> Hiya.  Is there a way to copy my shortcuts, panels, desktop etc to a new user account or to a different machine?  Cheers :>
[19:55] <Ozwaldca> i ran the ./configure files and then the make and make install
[19:55] <Ozwaldca> as per the instructions
[19:55] <jon23d> wolo: copy your home folder
[19:56] <nikitis> Ozwaldca, did you get any errors while ./configure?
[19:56] <SliderMan> how to setup grub?
[19:56] <Ozwaldca> argh  the sounds works fin just the mic is buggered .. it is actually a SIgmatel HD 92XX card
[19:56] <nillo> Brucevdk: I will try that, but I'm really looking here for somebody that knows.  I used to be able to do this directly.  It doesn't make sense that I can't anymore.
[19:56] <acr0nym> jon23d, use sudo ap-get update      to update your packet manager
[19:56] <nikitis> SliderMan, with a live disc, grub-install
[19:56] <acr0nym> you might have to add some sources depending on what you want
[19:56] <Ozwaldca> dont believe so
[19:56] <Brucevdk> nillo: well, maybe you used to be using Metacity?
[19:56] <poppler> SliderMan: config file in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[19:57] <nikitis> Ozwaldca, that
[19:57] <Ozwaldca> is there a way to revert back to v1.0.17?
[19:57] <nikitis> is not a hda intell
[19:57] <SliderMan> nikitis i dont have a livecd, i am using ubuntu atm
[19:57] <eth01> please don't PVT me
[19:57] <temp01> possible to boot .iso from grub?
[19:57] <eth01> thanks.
[19:57] <achtung_> Has Ubuntu implemented glitch-free-audio in pulse yet?
[19:57] <achtung_> I need to know to test something.
[19:57] <nillo> Brucevdk: That's possible, but I thought I was using 8.10 before as well.  Maybe it was a previous version.
[19:57] <jon23d> acr0nym: sweet!  ty
[19:57] <Wolo> jon23d: thanks :>
[19:57] <stealth-> Wolo: copy the files you want into your new home directory, then run the command: sudo chown yournewname:yournewname -R /home/yournewname
[19:57] <nikitis> SliderMan, Do you only have one harddrive with no other partitions?
[19:57] <shubbar> how do i add a service to startup?
[19:58] <Ozwaldca> i know that no the card but here are no drivers for the sigmatel card
[19:58] <nillo> Brucevdk: In any case, seems silly that Ubuntu would discontinue functionality like this, and not offer an obvious transition path.
[19:58] <stealth-> Wolo: and obviously replace yournewname with your new name. That will give yournewname ownership over all files in /home/yournewname
[19:58] <SliderMan> nikitis, ubuntu installtion mistakly setup grub on my usb stick. now i have to boot ubuntu from my hd using the stick. it wont load if the stick isnt connected.
[19:58] <Ozwaldca> should i just try running the /configure file and make, and then make installl again?
[19:58] <timthelio1> is there a way to make it so that when I'm dragging windows, they won't "fly" to other desktops?  This mechanism would be useful, except it's very clumsy right now...
[19:59] <nikitis> SliderMan, take the stick out, and send me the output of
[19:59] <temp01> anyone? :/ i want to boot .ISOs using grub menu
[19:59] <mizipzor> is there a command to list every physical drive in the box, all partitions on that drive and the (eventual) folder its mapped to?
[19:59] <SliderMan> nikitis last time i tried to take it out ubuntu froze.
[19:59] <jimmy5410> The Linux Live Scripts didn't help
[19:59] <stealth-> SliderMan: look up a tutorial on installing grub on the harddrive again, do that from a live cd
[20:00] <nikitis> SliderMan, send me the output of "sudo fdisk -l " via http://rafb.net/paste
[20:00] <axsd9d> temp01 try unetbootin
[20:00] <jimmy5410> I need to save my settings on a flashdrive, while I am booting from that same flashdrive
[20:01] <Brucevdk> nillo: well, Ubuntu is a community distro (by the people, for the people), it's not a hive mind controlled by a single entity or something :-) The Compiz team was probably too busy trying to get more fancy effects then duplicate behavior from Metacity.
[20:01] <Brucevdk> than*
[20:01] <Ozwaldca> this is really the only thing holding me back from going full ubuntu...  and i really hate vista
[20:01] <temp01> axsd9d: thanks :) looks like it'll work
[20:01] <SliderMan> nikitis, http://rafb.net/p/HeBcqR32.html
[20:02] <SliderMan> nikitis i think one of them is the usb stick
[20:02] <jimmy5410> I  need some help
[20:02] <nillo> Brucevdk: I won't argue that point with you.  I understand.  I just thought that Ubuntu tried to be a convenient OS, like Windows, and from a newbie perspective (like me) this change is confusing.
[20:03] <jimmy5410> -.-
[20:03] <acr0nym> *cough* use windows 7 *cough* :P
[20:03] <nikitis> SliderMan, So you have 20GB's for root and 20GB's for /home?
[20:03] <SliderMan> nikits, yeah.
[20:03] <SliderMan> nikits, 1gb is swap :P
[20:03] <nillo> Brucevdk: To be honest with you, I'm still not sure whether it's not a bug in my UI somehow.
[20:04] <jimmy5410> Anybody?
[20:04] <Ozwaldca> ok well thanx for the help..i will check back later  maybe there will be more folks available to chat with
[20:05] <jimmy5410> Please.....?
[20:05] <Brucevdk> nillo: when I switch to compiz (compiz --replace) the behavior of the workspace switcher applet changes to not being able to name workspaces (or even display them). Switching back to Metacity does allow me to do so.  And then there's this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/94818 (not a bug perse, just one that shows the feature is not available when using Compiz)
[20:06] <Brucevdk> nillo: here's a more relevant bug report it seems: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libwnck/+bug/129152
[20:06] <Tyyr> so
[20:06] <Tyyr> how do I make xchat not autojoin this network/channel?
[20:06] <nillo> Brucevdk: Thanks a lot, I was heading in the bug report direction.  I will look into those.
[20:07] <nikitis> SliderMan, first off you will have to make your root partition bootable by typing sudo fdisk /dev/sda
[20:07] <Excell> Tyyr:  go into network settings/edit
[20:07] <SliderMan> nikits, ok.
[20:07] <axsd9d> try rightclick the channel & remove from favourites
[20:07] <nikitis> SliderMan, hit a then select 1 assuming the first 20 gb is root
[20:08] <nikitis> then hit w to write out the contents
[20:08] <erUSUL> Tyyr: got to the networks settings ? Crtl + S
[20:08] <Tyyr> found it
[20:08] <Tyyr> thanks
[20:08] <axsd9d> Tyyr: try rightclick the channel & remove from favourites
[20:08] <Excell> y/w Tyyr
[20:08] <Brucevdk> nillo: the problem with that latter report though is that they're mixing two issues in one report (labels and number of workspaces). It's best to move the name/labels discussion to the other (closed/invalid) bug report and reopen that.
[20:08] <Tyyr> later
[20:08] <SliderMan> nikitis, ok
[20:08] <nikitis> now that drive is bootable.  You need to write grub to the MBR
[20:08] <Excell> l;ater
[20:08] <SliderMan> nikitis it asks for command gain
[20:08] <bonhoffer> i am trying to find my Section "ServerLayout" in xorg.conf -- it isn't there -- has this been deleted?
[20:08] <SliderMan> nikitis it asks for command again**
[20:08] <PCTeacher012> hi
[20:09] <nikitis> you hit w to write?
[20:09] <marshall> what file contains the list of blacklisted modules?
[20:09] <nikitis> SliderMan, when you hit w after you set it to bootable via a
[20:09] <nillo> Brucevdk: I will try to keep that in mind.  I have a lot of other competing issues, though, so I may forget.
[20:09] <nikitis> SliderMan, it should quit once done
[20:09] <Brucevdk> marshall: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[20:09] <Slart> marshall: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist I think
[20:09] <bonhoffer> i need to insert the line: InputDevice     "stylus"	"SendCoreEvents"
[20:09] <nillo> Brucevdk: Thanks for your help!  Think we've bounded the problem.
[20:10] <bonhoffer> and without knowing where that is, i don't know where to put it
[20:10] <SliderMan> nikitis it says the kernel still uses the old tables and i should reboot
[20:10] <nikitis> don
[20:10] <nikitis> SliderMan, don't yet
[20:10] <nikitis> sorry i
[20:10] <SliderMan> nikits ok. what next?
[20:10] <nikitis> I am typing on this shitty dell mini 9 keyboard, enter is where the ' is supposed to be
[20:10] <Brucevdk> bonhoffer: http://pastebin.com/d5e88476e -- here's my xorg.conf, looking at that might help you out
[20:11] <bonhoffer> Brucevdk, thanks!
[20:11] <nikitis> SliderMan, one sec
[20:11] <erUSUL> marshall: the various /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist*
[20:11] <SliderMan> nikitis take your time, thanks for helping out.
[20:11] <bonhoffer> Brucevdk, so it looks like i should add the ServerLayout section
[20:12] <Brucevdk> bonhoffer: looks like it :-) Default xorg.conf nowadays is blanked out anyways.
[20:12] <nikitis> SliderMan, type sudo grub and under the new prompt type find /boot/grub/stage1
[20:12] <MHz128> Any suggestions for a good-looking system font use? besides the default one...
[20:13] <Brucevdk> MHz128: Comic Sans is a reasonable choice
[20:13] <bonhoffer> Brucevdk, so how do i know if mine is blanked out (comments across the board?)
[20:13] <SliderMan> nikitis (hd0,0)
[20:13] <nikitis> SliderMan, wonderful
[20:13] <Brucevdk> bonhoffer: no I meant, literally blank, empty, nothing, nilcho :-)
[20:13] <nikitis> SliderMan, i need you to quit
[20:14] <SliderMan> nikitis, done.
[20:14] <bonhoffer> Brucevdk, got it
[20:14] <nikitis> SliderMan, and type cat /boot/grub/menu.lst and send me the output via http://rafb.net/paste
[20:14] <Brucevdk> bonhoffer: anyways, my config is specifically configured for an X61 tablet, but you should be able to remove the unneeded bits
[20:15] <bonhoffer> Brucevdk, i just have a bamboo fun
[20:15] <_mnemonic76> I have just installed ubuntu 8.04 from the live cd. grub seems to be loading properly after the POST, but the entries in menu.lst were wrong. after I fix that file what do I have to do to make the changes permanent?
[20:15] <Brucevdk> bonhoffer: you might even be able to auto-generate it using: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[20:15] <SliderMan> http://rafb.net/p/lW92vf73.html
[20:15] <bonhoffer> interesting . . .
[20:15] <SliderMan> nikits, http://rafb.net/p/lW92vf73.html
[20:16] <MHz128> what is the Gnome config file editor called?
[20:16] <clearscreen> gconf-editor
[20:16] <clearscreen> :P
[20:16] <Brucevdk> bonhoffer: wait no, ignore that, turns out that doesn't work :-)
[20:16] <MHz128> clearscreen, oh :p
[20:16] <clearscreen> MHz128: unless you mean an actual texteditor (gedit)
[20:16] <bonhoffer> Brucevdk, if you have a minute -- does this tutorial look up to date? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=765915
[20:17] <bonhoffer> that is what i am following
[20:17] <MHz128> clearscreen, I'm looking for a setting to change the inactive title-bar transparency...
[20:17] <clearscreen> thats probably a compiz setting, although I could be wrong
[20:17] <LMJ> hi
[20:17] <MHz128> nope, its gnome
[20:17] <Brucevdk> bonhoffer: I'd say try copy pasting that entire Xorg.conf file first, before trying the compilation stuff
[20:18] <LMJ> why the flash plugin works fine on my sea-monkey and not on Firefox on ubuntu 8.10 64bits
[20:18] <nikitis> SliderMan, one sec, analyzing your file
[20:18] <bonhoffer> Brucevdk, thanks
[20:18] <_mnemonic76> My problem is that grub enumerates the disks differently after I have booted into ubuntu... so issuing the commands IN ubuntu to grub is wrong...
[20:18] <SliderMan> nikitis, thanks for helping. take your time.
[20:20] <nikitis> SliderMan, ok, i think i have everything and should warn that in case this does not work then it may be wise to have a LIVE Disc handy as you may not be able to boot if it doesn
[20:20] <nikitis> SliderMan, but it should work
[20:20] <SliderMan> nikitis, i dont have a cd-rom drive.
[20:21] <SliderMan> nikitis but its fine i have my brothers laptop, i could go online from his lap
[20:21] <nikitis> SliderMan, download unetbootin
[20:21] <nikitis> ok
[20:21] <nikitis> SliderMan, then type sudo grub
[20:21] <SliderMan> nikitis whats unetbooting?
[20:21] <nikitis> SliderMan, allows for a disc ubuntu of many types, live, install, net install disc to boot via usb stick
[20:22] <SliderMan> nikitis, my usb has only 128MB the only disk i could setup  on it is the minimal
[20:22] <bonhoffer> what is a good way to test out my wacom to see if it is working on ubuntu?
[20:22] <SliderMan> nikitis, anyways i am on grub menu thingy
[20:22] <SliderMan> nikitis, willing to take the risk ;)
[20:23] <nikitis> SliderMan, once at the grub prompt via "sudo grub", type "root hd(0,0)" then type "setup hd(0)"
[20:23] <nikitis> SliderMan, without quotes
[20:23] <MHz128> I would like to disable the inactive title-bar transparency effect, is there a setting somewhere in gconf-editor for this?
[20:23] <SliderMan> grub> root hd(0,0)
[20:23] <SliderMan> Error 11: Unrecognized device string
[20:23] <bonhoffer> Brucevdk, now my pc, on reboot is going into low-graphics mode
[20:23] <Flannel> SliderMan: (hd0,0) not hd(0,0)
[20:24] <Brucevdk> bonhoffer: bad config probably
[20:24] <SliderMan> ok thanks ;)
[20:24] <nikitis> SliderMan, my fault
[20:24] <bonhoffer> data incomplete in file /etc/x11/xorg.conf
[20:24] <Brucevdk> bonhoffer: let me take a look and create a conf for you to try
[20:24] <nikitis> SliderMan, been awhile
[20:24] <clearscreen> MHz128: im almost certain it's a compiz setting :P
[20:24] <bonhoffer> Undefined InputDevice "touch" referenced by ServerLayout "Default Layout"
[20:24] <Vuen> hey guys, i just installed mythtv to test it out before buying an htpc. now my computer is really slow, and top shows mysqld_safe taking up 96% cpu. anyone know what's wrong?
[20:24] <bonhoffer> Brucevdk, i'll pastie -- hold on
[20:24] <SliderMan> nikitis, it worked. should i reboot now?
[20:25] <bonhoffer> Brucevdk, should i run in low-graphics mode?
[20:25] <nikitis> SliderMan, yup, take out your usb stick and make sure your harddrive is first on the boot list in your BIOS
[20:25] <bonhoffer> or 'reconfigure graphics' i am getting some options i have to select from
[20:25] <MHz128> clearscreen, hmm, can you guess which plugin?
[20:25] <nikitis> SliderMan, take it out after you shut down
[20:25] <clearscreen> yeah just tested it, it's compiz
[20:25] <SliderMan> nikitis, thanks alot.
[20:25] <Slart> Is there a secret place where you can set scroll speed for your mouse? I seem to remember seeing it before but now I can't find it
[20:25] <nikitis> SliderMan, and come back to tell us if it worked
[20:26] <bonhoffer> but it looks like my wacom is recognized
[20:26] <MHz128> clearscreen, interesting, in Fedora, its a gnome setting :p
[20:26] <Brucevdk> bonhoffer: I don't remember the dialog, pick what sounds best to you :-) I'd personally always just go to Ctrl-Alt-F1, login, delete the xorg.conf and restart X
[20:26] <MHz128> my bad!
[20:26] <Brucevdk> bonhoffer: that's good :-)
[20:26] <emma> Slart: how about systems > preferences > mouse
[20:26] <bonhoffer> well, starting in low graphics mode
[20:27] <Slart> emma: yes, that seems like the logical place for it.. but they've thought of that.. nothing there for settings scroll speed
[20:27] <clearscreen> MHz128: CompizConfig Settings Manager, general settings->opacity settings->window opacities
[20:27] <bonhoffer> but it looks pretty good -- o.k. uploading
[20:27] <nikitis> anyone have a dell mini 9 and know what the recommended size for a root partition?
[20:27] <Slart> emma: at least not on my computer.. you've got something in there?
[20:27] <nikitis> with only a 8 gb drive?
[20:28] <graingert> nikitis-> why not just make it 8gb?
[20:28] <bonhoffer> Brucevdk, http://gist.github.com/90509
[20:28] <nikitis> graingert, i like to have /home separate in case i need to blow root away
[20:28] <khunt> my other ubuntu install is booting into maintenance console and asking for root password. Only it won't accept my root password
[20:29] <emma> Slart: is it a usb mouse?
[20:29] <graingert> nikitis-> on a netbook! why not just back up it's only 8gb
[20:29] <axsd9d> khunt maybe try ubuntu;ubuntu
[20:29] <Slart> emma: yup.. a usb mighty mouse with cord
[20:29] <Brucevdk> bonhoffer: looks like you have an invalid reference to the inputdevice "touch", this config here should probably work: http://pastebin.com/d1d75a36b
[20:29] <nikitis> graingert, lol.  Still.  I want one
[20:30] <nikitis> graingert, i wish to upgrade to jaunty as well
[20:30] <nikitis> graingert, and i have no idea a default install takes up
[20:30] <graingert> nikitis-> yeah, it will upgrade without worry
[20:30] <bonhoffer> Brucevdk, great
[20:30] <nikitis> graingert, Do you have one?
[20:30] <graingert> nikitis-> does the mini9 have an sd port?
[20:30] <nikitis> graingert, yes
[20:30] <graingert> nikitis-> sdhc?
[20:30] <MHz128> clearscreen, hmm, so how do I make them all opaque?
[20:31] <nikitis> graingert, says SD*MD PRO MMC
[20:31] <Bram_P> hello, I think I did kill my micro-sd card, my ubuntu computer can see it (it says usb drive) but it doesn't do anything anymore... what can be wrong?
[20:31] <emma> Slart: you might be able to at least adjust the speed in firefox.
[20:31] <j5098> i just upgraded to jaunty and now all my desktop effects are really slow
[20:31] <eseven73> j5098, ask about that in #ubuntu+1
[20:32] <nikitis> graingert, 02:00.2 SD Host controller: JMicron Technologies, Inc. Unknown device 2381
[20:32] <clearscreen> MHz128: actually, it could be metacity
[20:32] <j5098> eseven73: k, thanks
[20:32] <emma> about:config  and then change the mousewheel.withnokey.sysnumlines to false and then change mousewheel.withnokey.numlines to a number as to how fast you like. Perhaps 6 or so.
[20:32] <Slart> emma: so scroll wheel events aren't handled by the os but by the application itself? that's kind of annoying
[20:32] <clearscreen> MHz128: gconf-editor -> apps -> gwd ->   then set metacity_theme_opacity to 1 (instead of 0.75)
[20:32] <AgainstTheFlow> I am getting this error in the update manager. E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.  How can I fix this?
[20:32] <graingert> j5098-> some CS drivers (ie graphics) don't work with latest (ubuntu+1)
[20:32] <emma> Slart: I'm trying to look into it but that idea for adjusting it in firefox is all I've found so far.
[20:32] <MHz128> clearscreen, whats gwd?
[20:32] <siegie> I want to automount a nfs share on my server. But the server is not always running. I used autofs with auto unmount after a specific specific time. This works fine, but when the server is not running, and a program tries to access a file on the nfs mount, the program freezes. I would be better to just have an error that the file is not there.
[20:33] <graingert> j5098-> go to ubuntu+1 for help with unstable
[20:33] <clearscreen> MHz128: gnome window decoration
[20:33] <Bram_P> I think I did kill my micro-sd card, my ubuntu computer can see it (it says usb drive) but it doesn't do anything anymore... what can be wrong?
[20:33] <nikitis> graingert, did you get that?
[20:33] <Slart> emma: google only find other people asking the same thing.. no real solutions so far.. but thanks for the firefox setting
[20:33] <bonhoffer> Brucevdk, o.k. i copied that xorg.conf into my /etc/x11 directory i am now in a shell (non-graphical reached via ctl+alt+f1)
[20:33] <graingert> nikitis-> not sure...
[20:33] <clearscreen> MHz128: it's listed as 'gwd' in 'apps'
[20:33] <MHz128> clearscreen, you are the man, thats exactly what I was looking for... :)
[20:33] <nikitis> graingert, 02:00.2 SD Host controller: JMicron Technologies, Inc. Unknown device 2381
[20:33] <bonhoffer> how do i restart x and reload the xorg.conf
[20:34] <Brucevdk> Slart: it's not the events perse, X obviously registers those, but it's the application and eventually the application's responsibility to then do what is should be doing
[20:34] <clearscreen> bonhoffer: ctrl + alt + backspace
[20:34] <graingert> nikitis-> plug an sdhc card into it :-p
[20:34] <emma> Slart: your problem seems to be on a lot of people's wishlists.
[20:34] <HTPC> Can somebody tell me how I can change the active viewing tty by a command
[20:34] <nikitis> graingert, don
[20:34] <emma> Slart: -- http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/2473/
[20:34] <clearscreen> MHz128: np
[20:34] <Slart> 21:34 < Brucevdk> Slart: it's not the events perse, X obviously registers those, but it's the application and eventually the application's responsibility to then do what is  should be doing
[20:34] <nikitis> graingert, dont have one
[20:34] <Slart> Brucevdk: mm.. I guess it makes sense..
[20:34] <graingert> nikitis-> ok, I'll try in store
[20:34] <bonhoffer> clearscreen, Brucevdk, ctl+alt+backspace didn't workk
[20:34] <dennda> Having installed a fresh copy of intrepid: I want to get jaunty. Should I upgrade all intrepid packages first or can I start upgrading to jaunty immediately?
[20:34] <Slart> sorry for the copy paste spam
[20:34] <bonhoffer> clearscreen, Brucevdk, does nothing
[20:35] <clearscreen> bonhoffer: then CTRL+ALT+F2, log into the shell, and type: /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[20:35] <nikitis> graingert, why?
[20:35] <dennda> (yes I do know it is still beta, thanks)
[20:35] <emma> the scroll wheel is not really a wheel. It's just a button being clicked over and over. There should be away to adjust its behavior in xorg, but the problem with that is that no one knows how xorg works anymore.
[20:35] <bonhoffer> Brucevdk, i am getting low-graphics mode errors again
[20:36] <Slart> emma: perhaps someone will come up with something clever for future versions of ubuntu..
[20:36] <graingert> nikitis-> becuase I fancy one
[20:36] <graingert> nikitis-> :-p
[20:36] <nikitis> graingert, it
[20:36] <Brucevdk> Slart: I sorta wasn't following the discussion, what are you trying to do? :-)
[20:36] <nikitis> graingert, its a multi card reader
[20:37] <Bram_P> hello, I think I did kill my micro-sd card, my ubuntu computer can see it (it says usb drive) but it doesn't do anything anymore... what can be wrong?
[20:37] <emma> Slart: that would be good. I'll push the idea to my software development friends.
[20:37] <Slart> Brucevdk: just trying to modify how much the scroll wheel scrolls in nautilus windows, firefox windows, openoffice windows etc..
[20:37] <emma> Slart: this doesn't look good as for finding a solution within Gnome -- http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=473839&start=0&st=0&sk=t&sd=a
[20:37] <Durandal4> Hello, can someone please help me with FireStarter
[20:37] <Slart> Brucevdk: also my vertical scroll wheel scrolls faster than the horizontal one..
[20:37] <AgainstTheFlow> I am getting E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. in the update manager. How can I corrct this?
[20:37] <clearscreen> !ask | Durandal4
[20:38] <hateball> AgainstTheFlow: You do as it tells you to, put sudo in front
[20:38] <clearscreen> AgainstTheFlow: do what it says? :P
[20:38] <solexious|netbk> Pretty sure this will work but to idiot check, will an apt cache work with the upgrade to 9.04?
[20:38] <Durandal4> !ask Is there any way I may set FireStarter to automatically open upon startup?
[20:38] <jimisrvrox> hey guys Ive got a wmp54g that shows like half a signal in ubuntu but when you try to connect to the router it does not want to connect. If it does connect it doesnt stay connected for very long how could I solve this issue? Im using the native linux drivers btw
[20:38] <SliderMan> kravlin, thanks alot. it worked!! :P
[20:38] <bonhoffer> Brucevdk, looks like it is working
[20:38] <AgainstTheFlow> I tried couldnt get it to work. Hold on I will try again
[20:38] <HTPC> Can somebody tell me how I can change the active viewing tty by a command, want to change it remotely
[20:38] <nikitis> graingert, get yourself the cheapest model as far as ram/harddisk goes.  Cause you can buy a runcore SSD that writes 2 times as fast and buy ram cheaper than dell sells
[20:38] <clearscreen> Durandal4: you can add it to your gnome session list
[20:38] <Brucevdk> bonhoffer: phew :-)
[20:38] <matt_keys> I don't have sound from Flash. I've tried all the tips I could find from searching Google and need some help troubleshooting what it is.
[20:39] <nikitis> SliderMan, did it work?
[20:39] <emma> !info iwheel
[20:39] <bonhoffer> Brucevdk, except the wacom mouse
[20:39] <Durandal4> How do I add Firestarter to my gnome session list?
[20:39] <SliderMan> LMAOOO
[20:39] <clearscreen> !sessions
[20:39] <clearscreen> !session
[20:39] <SliderMan> nikitis,  thanks alot. it worked!! :P
[20:39] <clearscreen> cmon!
[20:39] <Guest92150> how can i remove profile in unison????
[20:39] <bonhoffer> Brucevdk, is there a lightweight drawing program to test this out in?
[20:39] <nikitis> SliderMan, grats, enjoy
[20:39] <bonhoffer> gimp might require custom configration
[20:39] <emma> Slart: this might be useful for you -- http://colas.nahaboo.net/mouse-wheel-scroll/
[20:39] <SliderMan> nikitis, thanks. i was talking to someone else LOL

[20:39] <Slart>     * Date: Fri, 14 Apr 2006 15:11:14 -0500
[20:39] <Slart> The press releases, I believe, are scheduled for 2007. There's been alot of talk, though, in Mac circles about it.
[20:39] <Slart> Essentially, the concept is simple, but revolutionary. The iWheel is a disc shaped object that can be affixed to the bottom of any heavy object/platform. What happens is as follows: as a force is applied to the object, either by pulling or pushing it, the attached iWheel, whose circumference is made of rubber, begins to rotate as a result of the torque applied to it due to the traction of the rubber with the ground, while at the same time propping up the objec
[20:39] <FloodBot3> Slart: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[20:39] <SliderMan> nikitis, i thoguth it was you.
[20:39] <\shaman> hi
[20:39] <Slart> The result is that the object to which it's affixed becomes significantly more mobile, because all friction of the object with the ground is eliminated, all the while the object is MOVED by the spinning iWheel which by itself imparts minimal friction on the axle--the metal rod that forms its axis.
[20:40] <Slart> bah.. so sorry again
[20:40] <Brucevdk> bonhoffer: Gimp or Inkscape I'd guess (I'd consider those light) :-)
[20:40] <SliderMan> someone unban him
[20:40] <clearscreen> Bot is lagging hard today :P
[20:40] <nikitis> SliderMan, shouldnt need that usb stick for booting anymore
[20:40] <matt_keys> If I click on System -> Preferences -> Sound, and hit the test buttons I hear the tone, but I don't hear anything when watching flash
[20:40] <Slart> I'll go sit in the "I can't use my mouse"-corner for a while
[20:40] <bonhoffer> Brucevdk, what is inkscape?
[20:40] <bonhoffer> (installing it right now)
[20:40] <SliderMan> nikitis its in my hand, not connected anymore. i wanted to have it for installtion in case something happen.
[20:41] <AgainstTheFlow> I get command not found when I run that command
[20:41] <Brucevdk> bonhoffer: vector graphics editor
[20:41] <SliderMan> nikitis, also ubuntu runs faster now.
[20:41] <bonhoffer> cool -- thanks
[20:41] <clearscreen> AgainstTheFlow: then you didnt type it in correctly
[20:41] <emma> Slart: there appears to be no way to adjust the scroll wheel except on a per app basis. There may be an app called iwheel that can do it for you but it's not in the Ubuntu repos, apparently.
[20:41] <bonhoffer> does your wacom mouse work?
[20:41] <Slart> emma: I'll take a look at it. Thanks for all the help
[20:41] <Brucevdk> bonhoffer: I'm not sure what a Wacom mouse is :-) I have a tablet
[20:41] <nikitis> SliderMan, in theory, you can use that stick again in case your MBR crashes and can no longer boot, but that is unlikely it will happen
[20:41] <Brucevdk> bonhoffer: like a touchscreen I mean
[20:41] <bonhoffer> Brucevdk, the mouse works on top of the tablet
[20:41] <emma> Slart: The link I posted above shows how to do it for a lot of different apps. It's a collection of various hacks.
[20:42] <bonhoffer> with the bamboo fun, but you answered my question
[20:42] <SliderMan> nikitis, this HD fails alot. you wont believe this.
[20:42] <nikitis> SliderMan, how old is it
[20:42] <matt_keys> The sound card is a 01:00.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB Audigy (rev 03)
[20:42] <SliderMan> nikitis, its 10years old LMAO! :P
[20:42] <nikitis> SliderMan, it
[20:42] <SliderMan> nikitis still wokring tho ;)
[20:42] <nikitis> SliderMan, it is failing
[20:43] <SliderMan> nikitis, sometimes MBR crashes or partions "disapier"
[20:43] <nikitis> SliderMan, you will need to get a new one, parts of the drive are losing its ability to stay magnetized
[20:43] <AgainstTheFlow> I cut and paste it exactly as it shows in the error. I still et command not found
[20:43] <Ienorand> The manual page for "echo" speaks of --help as a valid argument, but when i try it it just echoes it... is there something I'm missing here or is this manual wrong?
[20:43] <nikitis> SliderMan, drives are supposed to be replaced on average after 5 years
[20:43] <nikitis> SliderMan, after that your data is threatened
[20:43] <SliderMan> nikitis, yeah my plan is to get a new laptop, i want allienwere.
[20:44] <nikitis> SliderMan, don
[20:44] <SliderMan> nikitis they have some really nice stuff.

[20:56] <Creative1412> guys what shall i buy GIGABYTE ATI HD 4670 or NIVIDIA 9600GS0
[20:57] <manzur> Creative1412: it depends
[20:57] <MHz128> How do I install gnome-docky?
[20:57] <graingert> can you reasign the keys on a mini9 netbook, the F11 and F12 keys are not included
[20:57] <Supersaiyan_IV> Creative1412, if nvidia, buy anything that has the G96 chip
[20:57] <Creative1412> hmmmm .. ok then the 9600 gso is fine?
[20:57] <graingert> MHz128-> you need to add the gnome-do ppa
[20:57] <Creative1412> and better for Ati?
[20:57] <kravlin> is there a command in linux that returns the current user?
[20:58] <alaz> whoami
[20:58] <Supersaiyan_IV> Creative1412, ati doesn't have good linux support imo, but they are getting better
[20:58] <Creative1412> i know iam suffering with the ATI 2600XT!
[20:58] <Creative1412> thanks guys :)
[20:59] <kravlin> alaz: thanks, i'm trying to write a program to return the current user
[20:59] <alaz> kravlin: whoami does that nicely... :)
[20:59] <kravlin> alaz: in perl to fit conky.
[20:59] <Supersaiyan_IV> Creative1412, another reason to choose nvidia is because they have developed a vdpau codec tha enables hardware h264 and VC1 decoding in linux
[21:00] <jrib> kravlin: you know of « whoami » ?
[21:00] <manzur> anyone in here know about a plugin for nautlus which let me see tooltips for files
[21:00] <manzur> and folders???
[21:00] <kravlin> jrib: i do now.
[21:00] <bruenig> manzur: what is a tooltip?
[21:00] <Neko_> i am just learning how use the linux terminal, and i have a question about the cd ../ command when you display a list of file and directorys and they have spaces in the file names how can you open them in the terminal as it wont allow spaces?
[21:00] <kravlin> jrib: now if i can just figure out perl enough to write the config.
[21:00] <bruenig> manzur: one of those things that pops up?
[21:00] <bruenig> manzur: and what is it supposed to show exactly?
[21:01] <manzur> file properties
[21:01] <manzur> yeah like this
[21:01] <manzur> let me show ya
[21:01] <dman> Neko_: escape the spaces with backslashes File\ Name
[21:01] <Neko_> ok thanks dman
[21:01] <Neko_> ill give it a try
[21:01] <dman> anyone know of a viable way to open a folder with 4000 images in it? nautilus... dies.
[21:02] <dman> Neko_: remember, tab completion is your friend
[21:02] <alaz> kravlin: in perl its getlogin() i think
[21:02] <Neko_> what is "tab completion" ?
[21:02] <chai> hi all, i just downloaded the insighttoolkit3-examples package, where do i actually find that source?
[21:03] <Brucevdk> Neko_: type something, like the beginning of a filename, hit tab, and it auto completes it with the matching item
[21:03] <manzur> hey people like this
[21:03] <manzur> http://www.freewaregenius.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/infotag-magic-screenshot2.jpg
[21:03] <Neko_> that sounds kool
[21:03] <manzur> http://www.freewaregenius.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/infotag-magic-screenshot2.jpg
[21:03] <graingert> does the dell mini9 suport SDHC?
[21:03] <Neko_> ill give it a go
[21:03] <DRUMS> Åñòü êòî èç Ðàøè ?
[21:03] <DRUMS> ))
[21:03] <manzur> is there a plugion for that
[21:03] <manzur> ??
[21:04] <Brucevdk> Neko_: next to escaping spaces, you can also use quotes (single ' and double ") so... cat "a filename with spaces"
[21:04] <manzur> in nautilus
[21:04] <manzur> ????
[21:04] <Slart> dman: have you tried disabling the icon preview thingy temporarily?
[21:04] <Guest50707> Anyone have an idea how I could remount stuff from my fstab when my network connection established a new network connection
[21:04] <kravlin> alaz: so then #!/bin/bash
[21:04] <kravlin> getlogin(); would work right?
[21:04] <Slart> !ru | DRUMS
[21:04] <Brucevdk> manzur: I don't believe Nautilus supports tooltips when hovering over items, Konqueror and Dolphin I believe do
[21:05] <DRUMS> àãà
[21:05] <manzur> Brucevdk: can u help me do a plugin for nautilus
[21:05] <manzur> ????
[21:05] <chai> when you download a source package, i.e. insighttoolkit3-examples, where do those examples actually go? silly question but i can't find em...
[21:05] <alaz> kravlin: um no. /bin/bash is not perl interpreter. bash uses whoami. /usr/bin/perl uses getlogin() function
[21:06] <Brucevdk> manzur: you can't specifically do this as a plugin either (you'd have to hack on Nautilus itself), see: http://live.gnome.org/Nautilus/Development However, there might be some people working on someting like this for Google's Summer of Code.
[21:06] <alaz> kravlin: explain what you are trying to do again please :)

[21:07] <manzur> hurry tell me i want to contribute
[21:07] <clearscreen> Just a question out of curiosity, where and how are the settings you can edit through gconf-editor stored?
[21:07] <Slart> carl_: this might help you http://www.google.se/search?q=what+is+a+.fdf+file
[21:07] <carl_> It's to print a cirtificate from website.

[21:07] <ActionParsnip> carl_: try:    file <file you are curious of>

[21:07] <ActionParsnip> carl_: it may tell you
[21:07] <clearscreen> !gconf
[21:08] <Slart> carl_: there might be several things called fdf
[21:08] <clearscreen> !gconf-editor > clearscreen
[21:08] <alaz> kravlin: ok. for bash its like this #!/bin/bash && whoami
[21:08] <clearscreen> meh
[21:08] <kravlin> alaz: the conky config line is ${tab 20}Username: ${alignr}${execi 20 ~/.scripts/conky_user.sh}
[21:08] <Ienorand> The manual page for "echo" speaks of --help as a valid argument, but when i try it it just echoes it... is there something I'm missing here or is this manual wrong?
[21:08] <Brucevdk> clearscreen: ~/.gconf in XML files
[21:08] <dman> Slart: still took 4 mins. Finally worked though.
[21:08] <manzur> Brucevdk: is there a way to know what they are working on
[21:08] <manzur> ??
[21:08] <Slart> Ienorand: I tried that too.. I didn't find a way to use --help or --version switches..
[21:08] <clearscreen> Brucevdk: aha, alright..
[21:09] <ActionParsnip> carl_: http://www.fileinfo.com/extension/fdf
[21:09] <manzur> Brucevdk: so we do not do the same thing
[21:09] <alaz> krevlin: ah so its runing the .sh file. then edit it and put in #!/bin/bash -line break- whoami
[21:09] <pingu> Hallo, how can i list all folders and files in it with ls?
[21:09] <Slart> dman: mm.. nautilus isn't fast when it comes to such things.. it helped somewhat when I defragged the volume I tried looking at
[21:09] <carl_> ActionParsnip So, I need acrobat reader?  Or what?
[21:09] <aaditya> ubottu: jaunty
[21:09] <Guest86741> with ls i get only the folders
[21:10] <kravlin> alaz: got it working. awesome.
[21:10] <alaz> krevlin: also make sure you ran chmod +x on that file
[21:10] <jarnos> Hello! I installed jaunty command
[21:10] <ActionParsnip> carl_: wekk, any PDF reader will do
[21:10] <chai> when you type sudo apt-get install somelibrary-examples, where do those examples download to?
[21:10] <ActionParsnip> !jaunty | jarnos
[21:10] <Brucevdk> manzur: the list archive http://mail.gnome.org/archives/nautilus-list/ and the SoC list http://live.gnome.org/SummerOfCode2009 (and possibly this discussion specifically: http://tinyurl.com/c28h64
[21:10] <SliderMan> any app that takes pictures from a webcam and saves them into HD?

[21:10] <alaz> krevlin: great!
[21:10]  * Guest86741 join #ubuntu-de
[21:10] <ActionParsnip> chai: the debs go to /var/cache/apt   and then the debs are installed
[21:10] <Slart> SliderMan: if you've got the webcam working I think there are several that can do that
[21:11] <chai> ActionParsnip, thank you!
[21:11] <Slart> SliderMan: the problem is usually getting the webcam to work in the first place
[21:11] <Athunye> Hello. Is there a boot option to make the install a little more customisable ? Something that would make the installer ask a few more question ?
[21:11] <ActionParsnip> chai: you can clear the cache with: sudo apt-get clean
[21:11] <Slart> !info webcamd | SliderMan: this is one example
[21:11] <dman> Athunye: try the alternate cd maybe? a lot more versatile

[21:17] <ubuntunewkid> am i the only one who uses ubuntu on virtual pc
[21:17] <judget_> I tried the ezcam and my webcam works in cheese but not in Skype all green hash
[21:17] <dman> ActionParsnip: free as in beer, but not all free as in speech...
[21:17] <ActionParsnip> ubuntunewkid: i doubt that greatly. lots of people use virtualisation
[21:17] <ActionParsnip> dman: true
[21:18] <judget_> Does anyone know about a workaround for the gspca module I can't get it to compile in Intrepid
[21:18] <alaz> ubuntunewk: i only run ubuntu servers, no desktop :). i like osx too much
[21:18] <ActionParsnip> dman: but i guessed what he meant and fielded it.
[21:18] <judget_> My same webcam is working in Hardy though
[21:18] <manzur> is that a project of your own, Brucevdk????
[21:18] <ubuntunewkid> no, i means is there anybody who is using ubunu on virtualization programs?
[21:18] <tonberry_> I was moving house and now my raid fails. I could really use some help to pin point the problem :\ http://pastebin.com/m5d588667
[21:18] <Brucevdk> manzur: yes and some other people
[21:18] <diavol0> Hello
[21:18] <alaz> ubuntunewk: i got it on my virtualbox
[21:18] <SliderMan> Slart said its hard to get the webcam working, i just pluged it in and it worked ;)
[21:18] <ActionParsnip> ubuntunewkid: i have, i even ran a virtual machine in a virtual machine for a chuckle
[21:18] <dman> ActionParsnip: of course.
[21:19] <ubuntunewkid> there is only one problem...sound...works with win xp but no ubuntu on virtual pc...
[21:19] <alaz> ActionPars: that must be slow
[21:19] <Platypus-Man> how can I add 'play in rhythmbox' for folder right-click context menus? I'm using a keyboard that has laptop-style touchpad instead of a mouse, so drag-and-drop is impossible, and adding folders via 'import folder' in rhythmbox is also very slow
[21:19] <sproaty> Was some KDE updates released a few days ago? Synaptic keeps complaining about partial upgrades or something
[21:19] <judget_> The newer webcams that support uvcvideo streams just work
[21:19] <diavol0> Explozy
[21:19] <diavol0> razumes ti nesto?:S

[21:20] <diavol0> ..
[21:20] <Explozy> Hahahahahahaha
[21:20] <judget_> so has anyone had any success compiling gspca for Intrepid or is there a different channel I should be asking on please?

[21:20] <ThomasGHenry> hey folks, my machine turn off without shutting down (call it "a power outage") and now some things are locked and unavailable. Is there a way to determine the extent of the locking and restore functionality to everything? Thanks

[21:21] <diavol0> ok,,,, and now what?
[21:22] <Acerone> Help Please. I upgraded Alsa (audio drivers) and now the Gnome keyboard shortcuts for volume no longer work. What do I need to do to fix them?
[21:22] <sproaty> Is there an easy way for my Python program to associate a file type with it, so that .wtbd files, for example opens in my app?
[21:22] <nillo> Brucevdk: I added you as a subscriber to the bug I filed.  Sorry, I should have asked first, but forgot I still had you on IRC.
[21:22] <coolmadmax> diavol0 како си?
[21:22] <Explozy> diavol0 Ima neko ko zna srpski :)
[21:22] <diavol0> cool_nick12 shta je to?
[21:22] <Slart> sproaty: I think it's a gnome thing.. don't know how to add more filetypes though.. perhaps look in the help for gnome-open ?
[21:22] <diavol0> coolmadmax
[21:22] <dman> sproaty: look into /etc/mimetypes, if i recall correctly google is your friend
[21:22] <diavol0> what is this
[21:23] <kravlin> Acerone: have you tried system>prefrences>keyboard shortcuts
[21:23] <Brucevdk> nillo: :-) Right, well when I get too many mails I'll just unsub myself
[21:23] <diavol0> Explozy jel pili ovi nesto?
[21:23] <ActionParsnip> jarnos: i'm unsure what generates that icon, i always manually check updates personally. I dont even have synaptic installed
[21:23] <ActionParsnip> jarnos: maybe someone else can help
[21:23] <Explozy> diavol0 Ne bih reko al ne razumem nista :)
[21:23] <sproaty> dman: ah yeah, but to automate it when the user installs the program? since it's only a python script, there isn't any installation, per say
[21:23] <diavol0> ej koje droge koristite
[21:23] <coolmadmax> diavol0 одакле си ?
[21:23] <diavol0> xD
[21:23] <Acerone> kravlin: yes, the shortcuts are still teh same, but the command that gnome shortcuts uses is no longer correct ( i think)

[21:25] <dman> sproaty: cool.
[21:25] <Explozy> coolmadmax Odakle si ?
[21:25] <Acerone> kravlin: the volume works just fine, its just the gnome keyboard shortcuts for my fn keys.

[21:25] <ma3x> is there a ssh timeout option somewhere in ubuntu?
[21:25] <sproaty> dman: well, not a python script I guess, but an application, heh.  You can see some screenshots http://code.google.com/p/whyteboard/wiki/Screenshots if you're interested
[21:26] <graingert> ma3x-> yes
[21:26] <Brucevdk> nillo: oh btw, you can just switch to metacity if you want right?
[21:26] <Explozy> coolmadmax Aha oket
[21:26] <kravlin> Acerone: yeah, but the keyboard shortcuts may be affecting a different media device.
[21:26] <signorini1984> i have a usb drive and i have to format it as a ntfs partition....how can i do that????? i'm in ubuntu
[21:26] <scunizi> I don't get it.. I've got a 14 meg pdf @ 600dpi that I've reprinted in cups-pdf at 150dpi w/no color and the resulting file is 44megs.. what gives?
[21:27] <Brucevdk> nillo: you just have to go to System -> Preferences -> Appearance  -> Visual effects and set it to None. Then it will switch to metacity and you'll be able to set workspace names.
[21:27] <LinuxRevolution> I have a weired problem with ADSL net!! when I wanna download something connection stop!
[21:27] <Acerone> kravlin: the keyboard shortcuts are still pointing to the old alsa vs, which is gone, so they arent doing anything, I still see a volume slider when I press them, but the actual volume doesnt change
[21:27] <dman> sproaty: cool!
[21:27] <DAROWORD> hello
[21:27] <dman> LinuxRevolution: sounds like you are overloading a crappy router.

[21:28] <signorini1984> sorry guys how can i format a pen drive with a ntfs filesystem from ubuntu?????
[21:28] <Slart> !ru | coolmadmax
[21:28] <yup> hello
[21:28] <kravlin> Acerone: i had the same problem. i fixed it by going to prefrences and making sure that it was set to the right device.
[21:29] <Slart> signorini1984: try using gnome partition editor
[21:29] <yup> how can i limit title's length in gnome ?
[21:29] <Slart> signorini1984: or gparted, as it is also called
[21:29] <Slart> yup: title of what?
[21:29] <signorini1984> gnome partition editor doesn't have ntfs filesystem
[21:29] <coolmadmax> сто се буне кад се пише на другом језику!
[21:29] <kravlin> Acerone: don't actually go into the volume control, instead just right click the icon on the taskbar.
[21:29] <yup> title of an icon on gnome desktop
[21:29] <Acerone> kravlin: so what preferences did you go to then? Ill try yours
[21:29] <dman> LinuxRevolution: downloading places strain on the network. maybe you are just overloading it.
[21:29] <Slart> signorini1984: hmm.. it does for me.. perhaps you need to install some ntfs tools.. hang on.. let me see what that package is called
[21:30] <Acerone> kravlin: the tray icon works fine, the volume changes, I want to fix my fn keys tho
[21:30] <Explozy> coolmadmax Pa ne znaju Srpski pa zato ne razumeju nas ... :)
[21:30] <ActionParsnip> !ru | coolmadmax
[21:30] <Slart> signorini1984: try installing "ntfsprogs" .. "sudo apt-get install ntfsprogs"
[21:30] <signorini1984> thank you.....if a select format option in gparted i can only chose ext or fat filesystem
[21:30] <signorini1984> ok i'll come back early
[21:31] <LinuxRevolution> dman: look I even cant update my ubuntu with synaptic
[21:31] <coolmadmax> ok ok i will start to write english
[21:31] <coolmadmax> ok?
[21:31] <Slart> coolmadmax: sounds good
[21:31] <yup> i have a few icons on my desktop with very long titles, so i want to limit length of visible text of such titles
[21:31] <kravlin> Acerone: or try this system>prefrences>sound and make sure the Default Mixer Tracks are set right.
[21:31] <dman> LinuxRevolution: hmm. good luck, but i have no idea what to do.
[21:31] <signorini1984> ok Slart i have installed it,.....now????
[21:31] <Slart> signorini1984: try restarting gnome partition editor
[21:31] <signorini1984> ok
[21:31] <LinuxRevolution> :-/
[21:32] <Slart> yup: I think there is a setting somewhere to make them use linebreaks a bit more aggressively.. not sure if there is an option to simply limit the length
[21:32] <signorini1984> it works!!!!! thank u a lot!!!!!!
[21:32] <signorini1984> :D:D
[21:32] <yup> ok, thanks
[21:33] <Slart> signorini1984: good =) you're welcome
[21:33] <Acerone> kravlin: THANK YOU! that worked!!!
[21:34] <kravlin> Acerone: it took me a week to figure that out... :P
[21:35] <Acerone> kravlin: Ive been working on it for 3 days
[21:35] <nillo> Any easy way to convert an existing (possibly damaged) CD to a new ISO?  Would creating an image and doing an rsync work?
[21:36] <coolmadmax> i have crossover connected ubuntu 8.04 system with laptop fedora 10 and set up ip manually to 192.168.01 and <IP_ADDRESS> but i need getaway ip address to set right .What should i to write to gataway ip address.Everything i try coming
[21:36] <coolmadmax> message
[21:36] <Slart> nillo: not sure.. but I think an iso is supposed to be a digital copy of a cd..why not give it a try?
[21:36] <coolmadmax> invalid ip address
[21:36] <nillo> Slart: thanks, think I will.
[21:37] <Slart> coolmadmax: try leaving it blank, or using the same ip as the computer has
[21:37] <nillo> Slart: Just wanted to shoot it down if it was futile.
[21:37] <Blackgibson> nillo: look into ddrescue
[21:37] <w0rth> Should I install rails through apt-get or through gem? What is the difference?
[21:37] <Blackgibson> that might do the trick
[21:37] <Slart> nillo: =)
[21:37] <Slart> w0rth: gem? what is that?
[21:37] <coolmadmax> thanks
[21:37] <w0rth> *gems
[21:38] <alaz> coolmadmax: you can set that in /etc/network/interfaces
[21:38] <ActionParsnip> nillo: you can create an iso using dd, if the cd gives issues use dd_rescue
[21:38] <w0rth> Slart: rubygems
[21:39] <demontager> how to switch off internal speakers on laptop while headphones connected?
[21:39] <nillo> Thanks Blackgibson, ActionParsnip.  Will look into that, too.  Good to know, if nothing else.
[21:39] <SliderMan> !games > sliderman
[21:39] <Blackgibson> no worries nillo, good luck
[21:39] <nillo> :)
[21:40] <Slart> w0rth: oh.. installing from apt might get some customization made for ubuntu.. gem might have other advantages ie might be newer etc
[21:40] <RichardWolfVI> !JAUNTY
[21:40] <nillo> Slart: Is that short for Slartibartfast?  Always loved that character!  :)
[21:40] <Slart> nillo: yup.. I'm guilty.. I nicked my nickname.. =)
[21:41] <nillo> Be careful, I may nick it from you if you don't guard it.  :P

[21:44] <MauL^> isnt there a 64bit version of ubuntu for Intel ?
[21:44] <jrib> MauL^: amd64
[21:44] <C-S-B> yup
[21:44] <alaz> MauL^: its the same for Intel as AMD64
[21:44] <MauL^> that looks like it is for amd
[21:44] <Slart> MauL^: the amd64 version is for both intel and amd cpus
[21:44] <MauL^> hmm ok. the name is a little bit confusing
[21:44] <ActionParsnip> MauL^: the amd64 iso will also run on intel 64bit
[21:44] <alaz> point is that its the same architecture
[21:45] <Slart> MauL^: it's some kind of homage to amd for coming up with the first 64 bit consumer cpu or something
[21:45] <MauL^> ok, thanks for help
[21:45] <valjean> i downloaded the cd beta for desktop 9.04, i currently have 8.10 installed
[21:45] <Slart> !64bit
[21:46] <valjean> i selected to format no partitions, and to use the old root as root and the old home partition as /home
[21:46] <valjean> this will *not* wipe the home partition, right? everything there will stay the same?
[21:46] <ma3x> is there a ssh timeout option somewhere in ubuntu? where
[21:48] <Manny2218> Hey, when ever I go to install Ubuntu into the partition i made for it, i get an error saying "The installer needs to commit changes to partition tables, but cannot do so because partitions on the following mount points could not be unmounted: /media/My\ BookBook" What do I do?
[21:48] <alaz> ma3x: probably a openssl thing. configure in /etc/ssh something
[21:48] <alaz> ma3x: wouldnt hurt reading man ssh either
[21:49] <ActionParsnip> valjean: i'd personally set / to be formatted, if you dont choose the home partition to be formatted it will be left but you can also set it to be mounted as /home at install time and fstab will be populated
[21:49] <valjean> Manny2218: are you trying to install ubuntu onto the Book?
[21:50] <valjean> ActionParsnip: if i'm going to format /, would you recommend switching to ext4?
[21:50] <Manny2218> My Book is the name of my hard drive
[21:50] <ActionParsnip> valjean: i've not used it but ive heard stuff about data loss, but others say its ok
[21:50] <Manny2218> i made a partition in ext3 format and a swap partition for ubuntu
[21:50] <alaz> ma3x: specify ConnectTimeout= in /etc/ssh/ssh_config
[21:51] <Manny2218> so what should I do?
[21:51] <eseven73> valberg, the only bad thing I see with ext4, it seems a lot of system rescue cd's and other rescue type utilities can't deal with ext4 yet
[21:52] <valjean> ActionParsnip: so whether i choose to mount it as home at install or a ignore it there and edit fstab later will not make a difference on itùs being formatted?
[21:52] <Nexos> eseven73: well, you can always mount it as ext3 (provided you don't use extents) IIRC
[21:53] <Manny2218> Valjean
[21:53] <valjean> Manny2218: i thought "My Book" was an external hard drive, but it sounds like youùre saying itùs external
[21:53] <ActionParsnip> valjean: as long as you do not tick format. the data will be untouched but the partition will be mounted and setup in /etc/fstab
[21:53] <Manny2218> it is an external hard drive
[21:53] <nibblyn> apt-get update -> Ign http://archive.ubuntu.com intrepid/main Translation-en_US ?? Why this?
[21:53] <valjean> ActionParsnip: ok thank you
[21:54] <Manny2218> Valjean - It is an external HD
[21:54] <valjean> Manny2218: try selecting "safely remove hardware" for the My Book
[21:54] <frankS2> jeesus, pulseaudio really sucks
[21:54] <frankS2> ubuntu should never come with it
[21:54] <frankS2> atleast it should be finished
[21:54] <wladston1> jeesus, pulseaudio really sucks [2]
[21:55] <ActionParsnip> valjean: just read everything
[21:55] <psy_1978> join irc::/irc.darksin.net
[21:56] <Manny2218> The partition i made for Ubuntu is on the My Book
[21:56] <wladston1> guys, my wireless connection keeps dropping out ... it started last month, it was working fine before ... any ideas of what can I do ?
[21:56] <Roasted> Does anybody know if it's possible to change the drive ID of a system? I have a computer here I'm testing with FOG (open source cloning software based on Ubuntu). I have the imaeg for it off of an 80gb SATA drive, which it reads as /dev/sdb. I threw in another 80gb SATA drive to reimage it to the same system and this drive comes up as /dev/sda and FOG errors out cause it wants /dev/sdb. What can I do?
[21:57] <Manny2218> Valjean - The partition i made for Ubuntu is on the My Book
[21:57] <valjean> are there other opinions on ext4 in here (same or different)?
[21:57] <kravlin> so nobody in #svn will help me with svn can someone here help?
[21:58] <gene2> Roasted: udev
[21:59] <valjean> Manny2218: it can't change the partition tables while it's mounted, i think, so you need to unmount it first... am i right in thinking you're installing ubuntu from a cd from within windows?
[21:59] <Roasted> gene2 - How would I do that considering that the system in question has no OS. I'm trying to push an image to it but the system reads the SATA drive as /dev/sda...
[21:59] <alaz> Is zfs getting implemented into the linux kernel soon?
[21:59] <gene2> Roasted: sorry mis-understood your question
[21:59] <Ienorand> valjean: Have used it so far on a usb install, no problems, but then again no extensive proking done
[21:59] <gene2> Roasted: so you connect the drive to the same port and it detects it as /dev/sdb instead of /dev/sda
[21:59] <Manny2218> Valjean - I already have windows installed, I am running the 8.04 Live CD at the moment
[22:00] <Roasted> gene2 - yes, the first 80gb drive reads as /dev/sdb and the imaging works. But I put in the other 80gb SATA drive, which is of a different make/model, but its still a SATA drive in the saem port, and it reads /dev/sda and my imaging process errors out as a result, something about an invalid partition table
[22:00] <xxmayhemxx420> are there any other chat servers on ubuntu
[22:01] <xxmayhemxx420> just to chat not for support
[22:01] <Amaeth> Hi
[22:01] <elTigre> hi! I am trying to print a data frame as latex
[22:01] <RedMushroom> am i in the room, or is this some sort of bizzare hallucination?
[22:01] <elTigre> so far without success...
[22:01] <gene2> Roasted: can you see what is detected as /dev/sda instead? I have no idea how this imager works, but if you have shell you should be able to see it
[22:01] <thiebaude> xxmayhemxx420: #ubuntu-offtopic #ubuntu-devel
[22:01] <Amaeth> someone knows howto enable SHMconfig in 8.10?
[22:02] <clearscreen> !ot | xxmayhemxx420
[22:02] <clearscreen> :)
[22:02] <Roasted> gene2 - Maybe I'm just stuck then. These hard drives are wiped, and the image is on my laptop. My laptop acts as the image server. I network boot the HP desktop in question to my laptop and my laptop sees it and will push the image down. But if I use the secondary drive I had laying around to push the image to it, it errors out and says something about /dev/sda, to where /dev/sdb is what the original drive said, and that drive works.
[22:02] <Roasted>  That's why I'm confused.
[22:02] <emoXodus> can i get some help with ndiswrapper?
[22:02] <Manny2218> okay Valjean - i unmounted it, i'm going to try installing again
[22:03] <gene2> Roasted: so you PXE boot? This imager is servered over network?
[22:03] <Ienorand> Manny2218: sudo umount /media/My\ BookBook
[22:03] <Roasted> gene2 - yes, I am PXE booting. This imager works over the network, but if I'm doing 1 computer I can just plug in a patch cable to each computer and image it without going over the full blown network.
[22:04] <Manny2218> i unmounted it in GParted
[22:04] <valjean> Manny2218: ok
[22:04] <Manny2218> i'm going to try to install again
[22:04] <Ienorand> Manny2218: And it's still giving errors?
[22:04] <kantor> hi
[22:04] <Manny2218> I haven't tried installing after unmounting yet
[22:04] <gene2> Roasted: I understand, so your imager has everything, DHCP, PXE, tftp. got it, this imager is based on Ubuntu and it is booting a linux kernel?
[22:05] <Roasted> gene2 - yes, I've been using this image software at work for quite some time, so I'm very familiar with how it works and I've had no problems with it. This it the first time I've had a weird issue like this. I'm trying to work out every scenario possible so I know what can resolve each conflict because we are getting in several hundred computers this summer so I have to be on my game if any errors come about.
[22:06] <leachim6> hey
[22:06] <gene2> Roasted: when the imager boots on the client over PXE - is there a way to get shell?
[22:06] <leachim6> where do I get genksyms?
[22:06] <thechris> hi
[22:06] <leachim6> I can't find it anywhere and I need it to compile alsa
[22:06] <demmon> how can i install uvc??
[22:06] <RedMushroom> i'm trying to run ./configure on an xchat dl (i've extracted already) and it's saying that GLIB in installed incorrectly. i just installed ubuntu, so i don't know why i'm getting this error. anyone know what to do?
[22:07] <Manny2218> so far no errors
[22:07] <Manny2218> its working! thanks!
[22:07] <Roasted> gene2 - No, not that I know of. You see, on my laptop (server) I have a web based gui frontend to manage everything. Once I select deploy image to the computer, my laptop will "Wake On LAN" and boot the HP desktop computer. At that point, once I hit F12 to PXE boot the desktop, the situation is completely otu of my hands and the imager just takes over.

[22:07] <emoXodus> Hey can someone give me some help i am new to ubuntu
[22:07] <kantor> Are the following functionalities useful for a network traffic generator program ? You can specify a port range like 50-100, or 4567-7899 . . .  and the program could send the packets to that ports in three ways: randomly in that range or increasingly (eg. if the range is 5-10 then 5, 6, 7 . . .) or decreasingly.  My question is it is useful the increasing and decreasing functionality ? it is not enough the random one ?

[22:09] <emoXodus> bencrisford, yes 1 sec
[22:09] <Roasted> gene2 - When the client computer getting imaged is in the process of preparing for the imaging process to start, it'll display on a dos looking screen what it is doing. I cannot type or do anything, it's simply just telling me what it's doing. It gets to the point where it says something about an invalid partition table on /dev/sda and it reboots 60 seconds later. When I imaged the computer with the other SATA drive, I noticed when i
[22:09] <Roasted> t was "Looking for hard drives" it found /dev/sdb, which is why I thought there might be a name conflict but I had no idea how to resolve it.

[22:11] <RedMushroom> does anyone know why i'm getting an error saying GLIB is installed incorrectly when trying to do ./configure while trying to install xchat on ubuntu?
[22:11] <ech0s7> hi
[22:11] <ech0s7> there is an issue for ctrl+alt+backspace for xorg 1.6 ?
[22:11] <Roadrunner_> no idea shroom
[22:11] <gene2> Roasted: I see, the way the kernel should be detecting these are in order they are plugged in. This is a SATA drive and it doesn't have any of that primary/second BS like PATA has, so it should not be detecting the drive as a different device if it's plugged into the same port.
[22:11] <Stupendoussteve> RedMushroom: You're probably missing dev packages. Any reason you're not using the ubuntu package to install xchat?
[22:11] <valjean> Manny2218: np; yay
[22:11] <bencrisford> emoXodus, what is the problem?  does ubuntu detect it?
[22:11] <Ienorand> ech0s7: Disable by default...
[22:11] <emoXodus> bencrisford, no it doesnt
[22:12] <pale> anyone had an idea how to speedup suspend and hibernate
[22:12] <ech0s7> Ienorand: how it's possible to enable ?
[22:12] <Ienorand> !dontzap
[22:12] <Roasted> gene2 - Thats what I thought. I didn't change the port on the motherboard, Is imply just unplugged one SATA and plugged in another. I booted up to GParted and sure enough GParted was finding this drive as sda, which I would THINK is right, so I have no idea why the other drive was picked up as SDB in the process, but thats how I imaged it
[22:12] <crdlb> ech0s7: you really should be asking this in #ubuntu+1
[22:12] <emoXodus> bencrisford, someone told me to use ndiswrapper but idk how to use it
[22:12] <infomomo> hey guys, is DIA the only replacement for VISIO on linux ??? it is good and everything, but is there another alternative?
[22:12] <bencrisford> emoXodus: try downloading the drivers from the trendnet site, ill get you the a link
[22:13] <bencrisford> emoXodus: http://www.trendnet.com/langen/asp/download_manager/list_subcategory.asp?subtype_id=976
[22:13] <emoXodus> bencrisford, i already have the drivers
[22:13] <RedMushroom> Stupendoussteve: i wasn't aware there was a ubuntu install package. you mind telling me where i might find that?
[22:13] <gene2> Roasted: /dev/sda and /dev/sdb is wierd. I would check on the client how the BIOS is detecting the drive and if in fact this imager does not care about the condition of the drive. ex: if the drive has a previous partion or something like that, maybe it would be a good idea to dd /dev/zero for a few MBs onto this drive.
[22:13] <bencrisford> emoXodus, ah...
[22:13] <Ienorand> ech0s7: There is also the Alt+PrntScrn+K command which is supposed to be similar (they are not exactly the same though)
[22:13] <TADS> wonder if anyone can help me out im trying to install vbox-2.1 im getting a error with kernel error log is http://tadsnet.org/erorlog.txt
[22:13] <bencrisford> what were you saying about the ndiswrapper?
[22:13] <emoXodus> bencrisford, theres some error when i try to configure it
[22:13] <emoXodus> bencrisford, how do you run ndiswrapper?
[22:14] <Stupendoussteve> RedMushroom: In the Applications Menu, "Add/Remove Programs" search for Xchat. If you don't want Xchat-gnome, change the pulldown to "All available applications"
[22:14] <Daniel10> anybody tried installing ldcc text based direct connect client?
[22:14] <Stupendoussteve> RedMushroom: Or open a terminal and run sudo apt-get install xchat
[22:14] <RedMushroom> cool! tyvm
[22:14] <Roasted> gene2 - I am stuck for a little bit. This software is really pretty incredible, and it has disk wiping and antivirus scan features on it. Right now I'm doing a full disk wipe where it continuously writes BS data overtop of each sector of the drive. I was hoping ot blast the drive entirely and see if that helped when I tried to image it, although, it sbeen wiping for the last 2 hours, so this wont be a viable fix come the day we get 6
[22:14] <Roasted> 00 new computers in and they do this, but i'm just trying it as a test.
[22:14] <Daniel10> irssi is the way to go
[22:14] <bencrisford> emoXodus, go into terminal, and type ndiswrapper
[22:14] <emoXodus> bencrisford, ok
[22:15] <KillGutza> Hello all
[22:15] <Daniel10> howdy
[22:15] <KillGutza> Anyone know why I can't copy things into my SE K750i?
[22:15] <Roasted> gene2 - you know something I just th ought of...
[22:15] <gene2> Roasted: all you really need to worry is about the first few MBs to whipe out the MBR. The remaining is not necessary unless you think the drive is damaged.
[22:15] <emoXodus> bencrisford, can i pm you so i can show you everything it says?
[22:15] <whip> 1-2 things i have learnd.. if its not broken, dont fix it. so.. if your distro is working, dont do anything "stupid" :)
[22:15] <bencrisford> emoXodus: sure
[22:16] <KillGutza> I copy it when it shows as a drive, but when I search it up on the phone it isn't there
[22:16] <Stupendoussteve> whip: Breaking it is half the fun :)
[22:16] <treyisrad> true that
[22:16] <Roasted> gene2 - I'm working with an HP dc5100. I have an image of an HP dc5000. I tried to image it and the image doesn't boot properly, it just blue screens. But I was messing around and wanted to see the image on a 2nd drive, which is when I ran into the sdb and sda issue. I wonder if the problem lies with the fact I pushed a dc5000 image to a dc5100.
[22:16] <whip> Stupendoussteve: for a-while yes :)
[22:16] <treyisrad> weekly backups are a life saver
[22:17] <Daniel10> gents i'm having deprecated conversion from string constant to 'char*' while attempting to install turbovision-essential to install ldcc
[22:17] <Roasted> gene2 - I mean, granted, if the dc5000 image successfully got imaged to the dc5000 computer I'm working with on one drive which was found as /dev/sdb, I would assume I could keep doing it to other SATA drives and it'd be fine, where I'm now seeing /dev/sda on the 2nd drive I tried, but still... that's the only curve ball I can imagine having effect on this situation.
[22:17] <kirilla> doxygen: best way to install it?
[22:17] <Stupendoussteve> whip: true if you want to do real work, having it not break is nice too
[22:17] <gene2> Roasted: this box has SATA CDROM?
[22:17] <smokie> hey guys, if i want to setup a local mailserver, what web mail client should i install so i can check my local email from the browser?
[22:17] <Roasted> gene2 - no, IDE CDROM, SATA HDD.
[22:17] <treyisrad> whats doxygen?
[22:18] <TADS> wonder if anyone can help me out im trying to install vbox-2.1 im getting a error with kernel error log is http://tadsnet.org/erorlog.txt
[22:18] <whip> Stupendoussteve: thats why i have 3 machines, 1 for work, 2 for stupidity :)
[22:18] <smokie> anyone?
[22:18] <gene2> Roasted: I'd give that a try too, disconnecting and see if it helps. but it's a long shot. the image you imaged to the drive has nothing to do with, it's not stored anywhere anyways
[22:18] <Prose> so I tried a weird resolution on my monitor and now it's simply out of range so I can't switch it back to normal resolution: any grpahical login attempt is impossible :(
[22:19] <Ashex> Has anyone had success playing team fortress 2 in wine?
[22:19] <SliderMan> does anyopne knows where can i get a free sip service to talk to my friends?
[22:19] <Roasted> gene2 - I think I may push a manual install of XP to this computer and re-image it to the 2nd drive then, that way I can at least work with an image that I MADE for this exact computer and reimage it to the same computer on a different HDD and see if that helps
[22:19] <treyisrad> yes, but laggy
[22:19] <Stupendoussteve> SliderMan: ekiga
[22:19] <yopo> yopo
[22:19] <whip> Ashex: isnt that a rude word? wine ?-)

[22:20] <Ashex> well, I'm curious if anyone has had success playing it. I get it to run, but it is incredibly choppy for me
[22:20] <SiDi> SliderMan: some ISP offer SIP free phone :)
[22:20] <Ashex> Which is odd, since I'm able to play half-life 2 without any problems
[22:21] <SiDi> SliderMan: mine offers free SIP phone over all europe + usa + china + canada (and a few more countries)
[22:21] <SliderMan> Sidi, my isp is lame. they never offered me anything. i am an old customer over 5years.

[22:21] <Ned__> hello I need to add repositories to Ubuntu 8.10. I'm reading https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu#What%20are%20Repositories? The problem is it tells how to add repositories for 7.04, 7.10, 8.04, but not for 8.10?
[22:21] <Ashex> Ned__, should be the same
[22:22] <Stupendoussteve> Ned__: It's the same, just change the name of the release
[22:22] <Roasted> gene2 - yeah, and I posted ont he soruceforge forums for this particular software. I just decided to poke my nose in here to see if its an Ubuntu thing.
[22:22] <Krine11> Hi there

[22:23] <Daniel10> you know what dc__ is
[22:23] <Ashex> Ah
[22:23] <gene2> Roasted: sorry does not seem like one to me, no shell, no way to control this - very hard to debug
[22:23] <Ashex> Daniel10, dc++? Yes
[22:23] <Daniel10> dc++ *
[22:23] <Roasted> gene2 - they do have a debug feature, but I forget how to utilize it.

[22:39] <Loganhoup> Can anyone tell me if burning an .iso file with cd/dvd creator will extract it on the dvd?
[22:39] <kklimonda> archlinux installs just fine
[22:39] <kklimonda> i have no more info unfortunately :/
[22:39] <Shivam> can anyone tell me how to remove my home icon on ubuntu? http://img300.imageshack.us/img300/3963/screenshotaac.png
[22:40] <kklimonda> well, it's a macbook pro without bootcamp
[22:40] <Iceman_B^Ltop> Loganhoup: thats what it's suppose to do
[22:40] <kklimonda> but with normal partition table
[22:40] <bn43> trying to find the link
[22:40] <Iceman_B^Ltop> otherwise you just have one big iso file on the disc :)
[22:40] <alaz> mbpro's works out of the box with ubuntu
[22:40] <erUSUL> bn43: do not see the point of such complications when you can use the open standar rfc compliant etc opengpg "protocol" with gnupg one standar that all mail clients support natively and efortless...
[22:40] <Loganhoup> some burners just throw it out there
[22:40] <Shivam> can anyone tell me how to remove my home icon on ubuntu? http://img300.imageshack.us/img300/3963/screenshotaac.png
[22:40] <Loganhoup> I didn't feel like wasting a disk so I confirmed it. Thank you

[22:40] <ActionParsnip> Shivam: sudo chmod 750 /path/to/file; sudo chown $USER /path/to/file
[22:41] <Ashex> Daniel10, those are warnings. You can fix it by going into the code and replacing `char*` with `const char`
[22:41] <Shivam> thanks lets try that
[22:41] <Ashex> But, there's something else making the build break
[22:41] <ActionParsnip> Shivam: if its a folder put -R after the word chmod and chown
[22:41] <Shivam> the whole folder is my computer
[22:41] <Ashex> Might be because of that, since it is unable to properly build codepage.o from codepage.cc
[22:41] <Shivam> home folder
[22:41] <bn43> erUSUL: I just want the mail to be encrypted - ie not plain text when travelling the internet - if gnupg will do and easier, will change
[22:41] <bn43> erUSUL: is there a howto?
[22:41] <erUSUL> bn43: it will
[22:42] <ma3x> why do i get this error when i use rsync @ERROR: Unknown module 'backup' rsync error: error starting client-server protocol (code 5) at main.c(1522) [sender=3.0.3]
[22:42] <Daniel10> Ashex: i'm pretty new to linux, what file do i go into. the .config file in the source?
[22:42] <erUSUL> !gnupg
[22:42] <erUSUL> bn43: which mail client do you use ?
[22:42] <Ashex> Daniel10, nah, the actual source. /classes/codepage.cc
[22:42] <Ashex> That file itself
[22:42] <bn43> command line
[22:42] <Ashex> no gurantee it will fix it though
[22:42] <Prose> anyway I can change the resolution of a session at the login prompt ?
[22:42] <Daniel10> Ashex: thanks it's worth a try
[22:42] <erUSUL> bn43: mail ? mutt? pine?
[22:42] <Ashex> I would suggest posting this on ubuntuforums.org
[22:42] <bn43> mail
[22:43] <Ashex> They may have a better fix then what I can offer
[22:43] <kklimonda> Prose: you could try ctrl+alt+<numeric +/->
[22:43] <Ashex> anyways, I'm running out of here
[22:43] <kklimonda> Prose: it worked years ago..
[22:43] <Daniel10> Ashex: thanks
[22:43] <Ashex> Going to try and enjoy the sun, it never shows in Seattle :p
[22:43] <Ashex> Daniel10, no problem
[22:43] <Prose> kklimonda: no I mean, change the resolution I am about to login into
[22:43] <emoXodus> bencrisford, pm?
[22:44] <Titan8990> Ashex, sun?
[22:44] <Prose> kklimonda: I changed the resolution in -session and  the screen decided it was "out of range"
[22:44] <ma3x> anybody knows/
[22:44] <Titan8990> Ashex, never heard of it :p
[22:44] <Brakonil> hi, im linux noob. i am using a ubuntu bootcd, and i cant see my hard drive mounted
[22:44] <Ashex> Titan8990, it's shiny like a penny :p
[22:44] <Brakonil> how can i mount it?
[22:44] <kklimonda> Prose: have you tried login using failsafe (gnome or terminal) session and fixing it?
[22:44] <Titan8990> Brakonil, sudo fdisk -l
[22:44] <Titan8990> Brakonil, views partitions
[22:44] <Prose> kklimonda: yeah ... still out of sync...
[22:45] <Prose> kklimonda: CLI command would be damned welcome
[22:45] <Titan8990> Brakonil, sudo mkdir /media/disk
[22:45] <temp01> is it possible to boot an iso file directly from grub ?
[22:45] <bn43> I'm using mail cause I have scripted regular emails to be sent to another pc - now I want this mail to be encrypted austomatically and decrypted automatically on the other end
[22:45] <Titan8990> Brakonil, sudo mount /dev/sdx /media/disk
[22:45] <ActionParsnip> Shivam: are you running winrar?
[22:45] <kklimonda> Prose: what file did you edit?
[22:45] <ActionParsnip> Shivam: just spotted it in your screenshow
[22:45] <Brakonil> will try
[22:45] <Shivam> i have it yes
[22:45] <tortaman> i need support on nfs shares, someone who want to help me?
[22:46] <ActionParsnip> Shivam: linux has a native rar handler
[22:46] <Shivam> it just the icon i want to remove
[22:46] <slimjimflim> hi, i've got 3 packages that apt doesn't seem to think are important enough to patch
[22:46] <erUSUL> bn43: for example http://www.queen.clara.net/pgp/AU267.html
[22:46] <Shivam> what is the native .rar handler called?
[22:46] <slimjimflim> every time i do an update, they stay in the dialog box...grayed out
[22:46] <Brakonil> Titan8990 it doesnt find that command
[22:46] <tortaman> feel free to send private msg
[22:46] <slimjimflim> running hardy on amd64
[22:46] <slimjimflim> xubuntu
[22:46] <ActionParsnip> !rar | Shivam
[22:47] <slimjimflim> the apps are k3b, mencoder and mplayer
[22:47] <leonardof> Hi there. I installed Wubi 8.10 on a Windows Vista, and since then I can't get an internet connection *on windows*. Any idea of why?
[22:47] <slimjimflim> can anybody help?
[22:47] <Shivam> !indo unrar-free
[22:47] <Shivam> fail
[22:47] <Shivam> !info unrar-free
[22:47] <Prose> kklimonda: I just changed the resolution via the GUI
[22:47] <ActionParsnip> slimjimflim: just install them as any other apps, the dependancys will be met for you (you will need Qt libs for K3B)
[22:48] <Shivam> ActionParsnip: Okay so how would i go about removing the icon off my desktop?
[22:48] <slimjimflim> ActionParsnip: they're installed already
[22:48] <ActionParsnip> Shivam: which icon exactly?
[22:48] <ikus060> Hi all, I'm eperimenting something strange with xmodmap. I try to map the 'Print' key to somethin else but it doesn't work .. Help is appreciated
[22:48] <Shivam> ActionParsnip: home folder
[22:48] <bn43> erUSUL: thank you for the tip - will read the howto
[22:50] <ActionParsnip> Shivam: try this: sudo chmod -R 750 /home/$USER; sudo chown -R $USER /home/$USER
[22:50] <sreenath> I've been having problems with compiz window decorations since I upgraded to intrepid. Every time I point at
[22:50] <Shivam> ActionParsnip: that command is to remove just the icon off my desktop?
[22:50] <ActionParsnip> slimjimflim: then you can launch them from terminal, you will need to ask in xubuntu for how to add it to the menu
[22:51] <taromsn> I just installed Ubuntu as a second OS on this harddrive, but now I can't boot into the Windows XP partition, it says "NTLDR Missing"
[22:51] <ActionParsnip> Shivam: no it will make sure you have correct access to your own data
[22:51] <ActionParsnip> Shivam: if you look in ~/Desktop you may see the icon, the fact that the permissions are bad isnt great
[22:52] <whip> ActionParsnip: hmm.. i thought that you can do in terminal much more than in gui.. :)
[22:52] <SvenVanBro> sebsebseb
[22:52] <SvenVanBro> sebastien
[22:52] <ActionParsnip> whip: you can do everything in terminal that you can do in gui, except flash in websites
[22:53] <Shivam> ActionParsnip: chmod: cannot access `/home/shivam/.gvfs': Permission denied
[22:53] <ActionParsnip> whip: terminal allows scripting too so gives a tonne more user power
[22:53] <x_link> Hi!
[22:53] <whip> ActionParsnip: wrong.
[22:53] <ActionParsnip> Shivam: did you use sudo? you can copy / paste to the terminal which is why I gave the full command
[22:53] <ActionParsnip> whip: ?
[22:53] <x_link> Shouldn't I be able to write "system-settings" in "run command"?
[22:53] <ActionParsnip> whip: what part is wrong?
[22:53] <Shivam> ActionParsnip: yes i used sudo
[22:54] <tortaman> hello i need help with nfs shares, with xubuntu 8.10, i try with the sharing folders wizard and allow all network to the shares
[22:54] <Chiselhuk_Plus1> I'm having trouble running a java program in Hardy, it's Scrabble, I can launch the program no problem from commandline but I'm getting an error - .: "Fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server :0.0."  Any idea anyone?
[22:54] <kklimonda> Prose: hmm.. you could try deleting $HOME/.gnome2/monitors.xml
[22:54] <cool> taromsn why you didn't use easyBCD to make boot from windows to you ubuntu
[22:54] <whip> ActionParsnip: you can do all in term, not talking about f**flash or so.. :)
[22:54] <Ned__>  Hello can you tell me how to add deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian intrepid non-free
[22:54] <Ned__>  to Ubuntu 8.10? I believe this is called repositories
[22:54] <cool> now you lost boot for win
[22:55] <ActionParsnip> whip: sure you can, you can web browse, burn cds, author dvds write documents, send email
[22:55] <Prose> kklimonda: really now, that barely sounds like a good idea
[22:55] <Prose> kklimonda: I'll give it a try I guess..
[22:55] <ActionParsnip> whip: the X server is a gui for the terminal, like windows 98 isa gui for DOS
[22:55] <taromsn> cool: Sorry, what?  I'm not sure what you mean
[22:55] <kklimonda> Prose: why? this is local setting and without it gnome should just load defaults
[22:56] <whip> ActionParsnip: is it? oh.. didnt know, thanks for the info :)
[22:56] <grout> anyone have a prefrence on which graphics card works better in ubuntu ati or nvidia?
[22:56] <x_link> Anybody?
[22:56] <ActionParsnip> Shivam: your home folder permissions are all out of whack, probably because gui apps have been run with sudo
[22:56] <Slart> grout: nvidia
[22:56] <Stupendoussteve> grout: nvidia is generally better supported under linux
[22:56] <Slart> grout: perhaps ati in a year or two
[22:56] <grout> ok thanks guys
[22:56] <Shivam> ActionParsnip: what do you suggest?
[22:57] <kklimonda> grout: older ati (you will get open drivers) or new nvidia..
[22:57] <cool> taromsn you insatll linux first time?
[22:57] <Prose> kklimonda: there is no file called monitor.xml is gnome2
[22:57] <kklimonda> Prose: check also $HOME/.config/
[22:57] <ActionParsnip> Shivam: reboot to root recovery console and do the same command there but use the actual user name
[22:57] <carbon13> taromsn, try http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=318728
[22:57] <x_link> Where do I find "system-settings"?
[22:57] <ActionParsnip> x_link: are you running kde?
[22:58] <sreenath> I've been having problems with compiz window decorations. Whenever I point at certain parts of the window title bar this happens: http://i44.tinypic.com/dq50lz.png
[22:58] <Shivam> ActionParsnip: will do, thanks
[22:58] <grout> kklimondo:  deciding on which to get, they would be new from both
[22:58] <x_link> ActionParsnip: GNOME.
[22:58] <x_link> ActionParsnip: This is my first time in GNOME, I'm a KDE-user.
[22:58] <kklimonda> grout: then go with nvidia.
[22:58] <Slart> sreenath: is that the whole screenshot? I don't see anything weird
[22:58] <ActionParsnip> !settings
[22:58] <grout> ok
[22:58] <Joker_-_> Is there an "easy" eay of configuring bluetooth headphones to work as normal headphones in ubuntu? I Have em paired and all but can't figure out how to get sound out of em... Any app that can "guide" me trough a setup / config process? I'd like to have em playing the sound just like the speakers, as an alternative to the speakers when I don't wanna wake up the block listening to movies on my MythBuntu box...
[22:58] <ActionParsnip> x_link: i use kde too,
[22:59] <taromsn> carbon13: If I use the recovery console method, will it still preserve my ability to boot into Ubuntu?
[22:59] <Prose> kklimonda: found it, removed it, rebooting
[22:59] <sreenath> slart: the titlebar is completely white
[22:59] <x_link> ActionParsnip: KDE4?
[22:59] <ZykoticK9> Having troubles disabling DPMS in Xorg on 8.10.  I've tried adding appropriate options (Option "DPMS" / Option "BlankTime" "0" / etc.)  to xorg.conf but that seems to break my X altogether, any suggestions/links?
[22:59] <x_link> I didn't like KDE4 at all, almost "hated" it.
[22:59] <carbon13> taromsn, no, but you can reinstall grub from linux boot cd
[22:59] <x_link> I really like KDE3 alot, but I don't want to get stucked with 8.04 for ever.
[22:59] <whip> kde4 isnt ready yet
[23:00] <Slart> sreenath: hmm.. not really sure what could be doing that...
[23:00] <x_link> But anyway, can somebody please tell me where I can find "system-settings"?
[23:00] <zleap> kde 4 comes with 8.10 doesn't it
[23:00] <x_link> Shouldn't it work to just write it in run command?
[23:00] <x_link> zleap: Yes.
[23:00] <ActionParsnip> x_link: kde 4.2.1
[23:00] <f0rmat> I have been trying to run vnc but the port is blocked and i am not sure what is blocking it... When i nmap the desktop from my laptop it shows only 3 open/closed ports i am only able to access my desktop via shell as my monitor broke :/
[23:00] <ActionParsnip> whip: works fine here
[23:00] <Stupendoussteve> x_link: By default there is not a centralized "settings" application visible. If you go to System>Preferences>Main Menu and click on the System menu, you can mark a checkmark for the Control Center
[23:00] <Prose> kklimonda: all right! it worked! thanks a bunch :) :)
[23:00] <whip> ActionParsnip: doesnt mean it works for everybody
[23:01] <sreenath> Slart: it worked in hardy, but not in intrepid. does this help?
[23:01] <x_link> Humm okej
[23:01] <Stupendoussteve> x_link: The control center just has the same things that are in the system menu already
[23:02] <taromsn> carbon13: So is there anything I should keep in mind when I try to install GRUB?
[23:02] <x_link> Stupendoussteve: Okey.
[23:02] <b23> hi, I want to install KDE 4.2 over my Gnome standard 8.10 install what is the best way doing that?
[23:02] <Slart> sreenath: might be a compiz thing.. I'm not sure..
[23:02] <x_link> I don't find the settings for the window etc.
[23:02] <whip> taromsn: back-up first :)
[23:02] <ActionParsnip> whip: indeed, doesnt mean its not ready though does it
[23:02] <sreenath> Slart: it's fine when I disable compiz
[23:03] <Stupendoussteve> x_link: System>Preferences>Appearance
[23:03] <x_link> And I can't open my .txt-files.
[23:04] <ActionParsnip> x_link: right click a txt file -> open with. Select your desired program then select "remember this setting" or similar

[23:04] <wemdowemd> Hi, I want to do a disk-image backup (as in, including MBR and partitions, so I can just slap the image over my hard drive should I need). I've been using a livecd and the 'dd' command in the past; is there a better (eg. less space-wasting) way to do what I want? It's important that the backup can just be written straight to the disk to get it to work thoug
[23:04] <KiRiLoS> leonardof, i dont think ubuntu caused that,could u give us more info?
[23:04] <x_link> I can't find the setting that makes all windows to open centered

[23:08] <KiRiLoS> Brandon_X_Fox, Does your camera work with other programs?Try using lsusb and look if it's listed there
[23:08] <Brandon_X_Fox> I use cheese and that works
[23:09] <leonardof> KiRiLoS: I don't think it was Ubuntu, but maybe Wubi
[23:09] <Brandon_X_Fox> but what gets me, why wouldn't it work with camorama. it makes no sense
[23:09] <leonardof> KiRiLoS: the issue started after installing wubi
[23:09] <corey> stupendoussteve: Before I rebooted they wouldnt play at all!
[23:09] <gartral> im having the same issue as Brandon_X_Fox, actually

[23:10] <KiRiLoS> Brandon_X_Fox & gartral open a terminal and write lsusb , then check if the camera is recognized correctly
[23:10] <Brandon_X_Fox> will do

[23:17] <KiRiLoS> corey, try synpatic package manager, System->Administration->Synaptic Package Manager
[23:17] <clearscreen> corey: synaptic as GUI tool, aptitude as console-based tool
[23:17] <leonardof> Raylu há canais em espanhol para o ubuntu. aqui ninguém fala espanhol.
[23:18] <raylu> ...i don't speak spanish, leonardof
[23:18] <Necrogamemaster> raylu: say no hablo espanol
[23:18] <smurf_> Can anyone recommend me a good, free shell account?
[23:18] <corey> thanks very much

[23:18] <leonardof> CFP87: há canais em espanhol para o ubuntu. aqui ninguém fala espanhol.
[23:18] <leonardof> raylu: sorry, wrong nick
[23:19] <Stupendoussteve> leonardof: Ubottu told him that three minutes ago
[23:19] <Necrogamemaster> j
[23:19] <Stupendoussteve> leonardof: Is that Portuguese?
[23:19] <Necrogamemaster> raylu tell him no hablo espanol
[23:19] <elijah> This channel just keeps on growing everytime I enter!
[23:19] <Mike^> if I install Ubuntu using the Windows Add/Remove Programs applet, since it's "sitting" on top of XP, will Ubuntu be subject to Window's security risks? Or is Ubuntu in a stand-alone mode?
[23:19] <smurf_> Necrogamemaster: "Freeshells.ch is not accepting new registrations at this time."
[23:19] <leonardof> Stupendoussteve: yes; i guess he reads portuguese better than i write spannish :D
[23:20] <Bamabambam> How do i get Java to work in Firefox? I have it enabled under properties but every site says i dont have it installed?
[23:20] <corey> problems! I cant even do "sudo apt-get install XXXXXXXX"
[23:20] <smurf_> To be honest, google gives me a lot of spam
[23:20] <Sway> Ubuntu would operate seperately from Windows XP, but can be removed inside it
[23:20] <noodlesgc> Mike^ it will not be vulnerable
[23:20] <raylu> noodlesgc: i don't think so
[23:20] <clearscreen> corey: why not? error message would help
[23:20] <pyles17> I messed up. I was trying to format my flash drive to boot ubuntu, and i erased my mbr. how do i reinstall grub? i only have a fedora live cd
[23:20] <Sway> Bamabambam - you still have to install java manually.
[23:20] <raylu> noodlesgc: it should still be possible to tinker with the raw partition data
[23:20] <Bamabambam> How do i install it?
[23:21] <Mike^> ok thanks noodlesgc
[23:21] <raylu> Sway: isn't ubuntu-restricted good enough?
[23:21] <noodlesgc> raylu possibly, but that is not a vulnerability, and highly unlikely
[23:21] <clearscreen> pyles17: grub-install /dev/primary/disk/here
[23:21] <raylu> noodlesgc: highly unlikely, but how is it not a vulnerability
[23:21] <corey> clearscreen: could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[23:21] <cypher1> Bamabambam: also you can check about:plugins in firefox to check whether java plugin is seen by firefox
[23:21] <grey> How can I upgrade alsa from 1.0.17 to 1.0.19 on ubuntu intrepid (8.10?) I'm pretty new to ubuntu
[23:21] <raylu> corey: are you sure you used sudo? if so, that means some other package manager is still open
[23:22] <Brandon_X_Fox> can anyone else on here help out with me and Gartral's issue?
[23:22] <Bamabambam> Ok thanks
[23:22] <zealiod> can some one pleasetell me the best way to execute some dynamic shell commands on start up... i need to do some iptables commands at boot from a mysql recordset... can i run a python script at boot that executes shell statements?
[23:22] <raylu> grey: 1.0.17 is the latest in the repositories. if you want something newer, you'll have to compile from source
[23:22] <corey> hmm perhaps we should pertend i didnt say anything at least for now...
[23:22] <raylu> !startup | zealiod
[23:22] <SliderMan> how come ubuntu dosent have a hex calculator?
[23:22] <grey> raylu: ok, thanks.
[23:23] <clearscreen> corey: haha
[23:23] <raylu> SliderMan: try qalculate. there are certainly others
[23:23] <Stupendoussteve> SliderMan: gcalctool does hex
[23:23] <cypher1> Bamabambam: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-bin
[23:23] <elijah> SliderMan: Ubuntu has everything at the click of a button.
[23:23] <noodlesgc> raylu ok, it may be a vulnerability, but its not like a vulnerability in the sense of the vulnerabilities that Windows sees or are exploited
[23:23] <leonardof> KiRiLoS: I tried that, and rebooting and shutting everything off, and trying the other day... no luck, but if I reboot into ubuntu I can use the web (like right now)
[23:23] <zealiod> raylu: thank you - can this be done on boot, rather than on gnome startup?
[23:23] <raylu> zealiod: try !boot, like the message says
[23:23] <SliderMan> elijah, agreed. if you know what you are looking for it has.
[23:23] <thepunisher23> Enter text hola alguna chica linda
[23:23] <raylu> noodlesgc: ok, point taken
[23:24] <corey> clearscreen: It says I dont have enough free space! /va/cache/apt/archives/ is in the /home folder right?
[23:24] <zealiod> !boot
[23:24] <KiRiLoS> leonardof, did u try restarting ur modem/router?Or trying to connect to it?
[23:24]  * Nielsen does the jaunty
[23:24] <SliderMan> elijah and also i just found out it had hex and i didnt see.
[23:24] <pyles17> clearscreen: "Unknown partition table signature" and then "/dev/primary/disk/here: Not found or not a block device."
[23:24] <SliderMan> ;)
[23:24] <leonardof> KiRiLoS: i tried restarting, no luck. and i don't know its IP
[23:24] <elijah> SliderMan: :)
[23:25] <KiRiLoS> leonardof, i dont think that wubi or ubuntu is what caused ur problem,maybe u should try getting some help for windows not ubuntu.
[23:25] <clearscreen> pyles17: you should obviously not use /dev/primary/disk/here, but replace it with the location of your primary disk :P
[23:25] <clearscreen> pyles17: in this case, the location of your USB drive
[23:25] <leonardof> KiRiLoS: thanks. I agree the issue would be very unlikely and sort of inedit. I'll see what I can do
[23:25] <corey> clearscreen: It says I dont have enough free space! /va/cache/apt/archives/ is in the /home folder right?
[23:26] <KiRiLoS> leonardof, sorry for not being able to help ya
[23:26] <Stupendoussteve> corey: No, /var/ is in /var
[23:26] <raylu> clearscreen: pyles17 wants to install to his hd, not his usb drive. that's what he did accidentally
[23:26] <leonardof> KiRiLoS: btw, not my computer. I'll have a hard time trying to fix windows :D
[23:26] <corey> oops
[23:26] <pyles17> clearscreen: wow. should've known that. I erased the mbr on my hd
[23:26] <clearscreen> pyles17: ah, well you probably want to grub-install /dev/sda ... but it could be different if you're mixing IDE with SATA disks
[23:27] <corey> stupendoussteve: how do i make it bigger? I have ample free space in an unused partition
[23:27] <leonardof> !something | leonardof
[23:27] <raylu> clearscreen, pyles17: also, you may need to pass --root-directory to grub-install
[23:27] <Brandon_X_Fox> Can anyone else in the community, help me and gartral with out webcam issue regarding camorama. Please
[23:27] <corey> !anything | corey
[23:27] <tony_faceless> would gnomad be problematic if not using alsa?
[23:27] <clearscreen> !ask | Brandon_X_Fox
[23:27] <tony_faceless> correction:  gnomad2
[23:28] <Stupendoussteve> clearscreen: He has already asked it. Camorama doesn't see his webcam, cheese does
[23:28] <raylu> corey: what says you're out of free space? can you show us "df -hx tmpfs"?
[23:28] <leonardof> !es | ubottu
[23:28] <clearscreen> Stupendoussteve: well sorry for not keeping track of the millions of conversations being held here :P
[23:28] <Stupendoussteve> :P
[23:28] <Brandon_X_Fox> i'm simply asking again to make sure others see the question. ty very much
[23:29] <leonardof> !pt | leonardof
[23:29] <pyles17> raylu, clearscreen: i'm not sure what some of that means
[23:29] <noodlesgc> tony_faceless what problem are you having with Gnomad2?
[23:29] <Stupendoussteve> leonardof: If you want to play with ubottu can you please do it in PM?
[23:29] <raylu> pyles17: show us sudo fdisk -l
[23:29] <tony_faceless> noodlesgc: it doesn't detect my zen xtra
[23:29] <corey> raylu: i have no space left on /
[23:30] <raylu> corey: again, show us "df -hx tmpfs" please
[23:30] <noodlesgc> tony_faceless is it detected by USB? try running the 'lsusb' command and see if it shows up
[23:30] <corey> raylu: i dont understand
[23:30] <gartral> me and Brandon_X_Fox having the same issue, or webcams are seen by cheese )and at least on my case aMSN, ekiga and skype as well) but camorama seems to ignore the camera
[23:31] <raylu> corey: run that command and pastebin the output
[23:31] <corey> raylu: what is pastebin
[23:31] <pyles17> raylu: http://paste.ubuntu.com/145180/http://paste.ubuntu.com/145180/
[23:31] <raylu> gartral: shot in the dark here: are you running cheese and camorama at the same time?
[23:31] <raylu> !pastebin | corey
[23:31] <pyles17> oops. sorry
[23:31] <tony_faceless> noodlesgc: doesn't seem that way
[23:31] <clearscreen> raylu: just out of curiosity, do you only need to pass --root-directory when /boot is a seperate (mounted) partition, or whenever your grub images are stored in /boot?
[23:31] <gartral> raylu: no, though im not sure the same could be said for Brandon_X_Fox
[23:32] <Brandon_X_Fox> I am not running cheese and camorama at the same time.
[23:32] <tony_faceless> noodlesgc: no mention of a creative device in output
[23:32] <raylu> clearscreen: you need to pass it when the "/boot" on your system doesn't map to the actual "/boot" you want
[23:33] <noodlesgc> tony_faceless odd. could I have the model?
[23:33] <clearscreen> pyles17: are you using a live cd?
[23:33] <raylu> and methinks pyles17 has a rather screwed up system...
[23:33] <clearscreen> raylu: same.. no valid partition table.. wat
[23:33] <pyles17> clearscreen: Yes I am. a fedora one because I couldn't find my ubuntu disk
[23:33] <pyles17> uh oh
[23:34] <raylu> pyles17: try running 'gksu gparted'
[23:34] <tony_faceless> noodlesgc: nomad jukebox zen xtra 40gb
[23:34] <meoblast001> hi
[23:34] <Stupendoussteve> pyles17: How did you delete your mbr? If you really deleted the whole thing, not just loader, your partition table doesn't exist
[23:34] <meoblast001> firefox is acting weird.... when i start it up it's covering the whole screen but it's not in reall fullscreen mode..... how do i fix that?
[23:34] <demmon> is there a client for virtual mashines in witch i can play 3d games??
[23:35] <tony_faceless> noodlesgc: sorry, DAP-HD0011
[23:35] <pyles17> raylu: "gksu: command not found"
[23:35] <tony_faceless> noodlesgc: can't tell if those are 'O's or '0's
[23:35] <raylu> pyles17: hm...it's been a while since i used fedora. how about just "sudo gparted"
[23:35] <demmon> pyles17: you want to installa .deb??
[23:35] <raylu> demmon: no
[23:35] <demmon> ok
[23:35] <clearscreen> pyles17: sudo gparted    should do for now, gksu probably doesnt/didnt exist on fedora
[23:35] <draginx> Hey guys I just currently bought a TrackMan Wheel by Logitech
[23:36] <draginx> I plugged it into my laptop and th emouse or clicks arent working.

[23:36] <demmon> draginx: try restart
[23:36] <draginx> demmon, meh OK :P

[23:39] <Brandon_X_Fox> Does anyone else have any reccomendations for me and Gartral? since we both have tryed lsusb
[23:39] <ndshacker> hi all, I try to mount a flash drive but get an error saying it has an invalid character in its mount point, how do I fix it?
[23:39] <|ns|nR8> i duel boot 8.10 with 9.04 running ext4...grub info is stored on the ext4 partition...if 8.10 updates kernel will it be able to update the grub info on the 9.04 partition..i was just wondering since 8.10 cant normall access ext4
[23:39] <demmon> Brandon_X_Fox: cam problems??
[23:39] <Mgamerz> The USB Startup disk option in Ubuntu 8.10 doesn't work, lol.
[23:39] <Brandon_X_Fox> demmon: yes with our webcam issues
[23:39] <raylu> |ns|nR8: no plans in 8.10 to include ext4 support, though you could roll your own kernel
[23:39] <demmon> Brandon_X_Fox: lol hahahahahahahahaa
[23:40] <clearscreen> Brandon_X_Fox: since you got it to work in another application, I think it's reasonable to assume it's an app-specific problem.. I think you're better off contacting developers for that specific software :)
[23:40] <demmon> Brandon_X_Fox: i am trying since 8.10 nada rien
[23:40] <|ns|nR8> so the grub menu/lst wont be updated im guessing
[23:40] <demmon> Brandon_X_Fox: i will recomend 8.04
[23:40] <|ns|nR8> so ill have to manually edit ?
[23:40] <Brandon_X_Fox> demmon: ubuntu 8.04?
[23:40] <ndshacker> hi all, I try to mount a flash drive but get an error saying it has an invalid character in its mount point, how do I fix it? it says it cannot have these characters: / and newline
[23:40] <gartral> yea, camorama is pretty buggy
[23:41] <demmon> yes Brandon_X_Fox i have tried EVERYTHING and doesnt work
[23:41] <Newbee> hello
[23:41] <demmon> Brandon_X_Fox: or try Vbox and use it just for the cam or lil things from it '
[23:41] <ndshacker> will formating this help? I have nothing important on it (yet)
[23:41] <raylu> ndshacker: how are you mounting it?
[23:41] <Brandon_X_Fox> demmon: ok I will consider the reccomendations. Thank you for your help
[23:41] <Stupendoussteve> Brandon_X_Fox: Might be worth a bug report
[23:42] <Brandon_X_Fox> stupendoussteve: I will keep that also in mind, thank you
[23:42] <raylu> |ns|nR8: sorry, i don't see messages to me unless you put my name in them. no, they won't, yes, you will
[23:42] <ndshacker> raylu: by plugging it in and clicking on the icon
[23:42] <demmon> Brandon_X_Fox: why do you use the cam for msn and other IM right?
[23:42] <Newbee> can anyone tell me how to make the --without-recommends option in aptitude the default? I don't want to install tons of packages all the time that I won't probably need.
[23:42] <raylu> |ns|nR8: unless there's a way to mount ext4 as ext3...
[23:42] <|ns|nR8> k thanks
[23:42] <raylu> Newbee: edit your .bashrc to include: alias aptitude='aptitude --without-recommends'
[23:42] <Brandon_X_Fox> demmon: I use it for making videos, and IM purposes... as soon as pidgin begins to support webcams
[23:43] <pyles17> raylu: http://paste.ubuntu.com/145192/ and the only thing gparted has is 93.16 GiB unallocated...I don't know much, but that doesn't seem good
[23:43] <Stupendoussteve> raylu: There is not
[23:43] <raylu> ndshacker: ah. i guess it has a strange label. do you know the name of the device in /dev?
[23:43] <demmon> Brandon_X_Fox:  well try it then Vbox i use it its damn perfect and it doesnt take a lot of time :)
[23:43] <ndshacker> yes
[23:43] <ndshacker> it would be /dev/sdd
[23:43] <demmon> !vbox > Brandon_X_Fox
[23:43] <marqueed> how can i change the value of /usr/bin/env python for the running of one script? i'm trying "/usr/bin/env python=/usr/bin/python2.5 SCRIPTNAME"
[23:43] <raylu> pyles17: yeah... did you have any important data? (read: how much time are you prepared to spend doing data recovery?)
[23:44] <marqueed> and then restoring /usr/bin/env by "/usr/bin/env python=/usr/bin/python2.6"
[23:44] <Newbee> raylu: ok, I  can use an alias. But isn't there an aptitude configuration option?
[23:44] <raylu> Stupendoussteve: sorry, what?
[23:44] <Stupendoussteve> raylu: You cannot mount ext4 as ext3
[23:44] <Brandon_X_Fox> demmon: ok me and gartral will try the reccomendations, thanks for your help.
[23:44] <pyles17> raylu: I'm not so worried about it. it sucks, but it'll be fine
[23:44] <raylu> Newbee: not that i know of. also, with the alias, i think removing things won't give you things that were installed as recommendations
[23:45] <raylu> Stupendoussteve: oh
[23:45] <Stupendoussteve> marqueed: PYTHON="/usr/bin/python2.5" scriptname
[23:45] <pyles17> raylu, clearscreen: thank you for your help
[23:46] <ndshacker> w00t I fixed it: I reformated as fat32 then got rid of all refernces in fstab and mtab then got rid of the stale lock file
[23:46] <Newbee> raylu: sorry, I am not a native English speaker. What did you mean with: " also, with the alias, i think removing things won't give you things that were installed as recommendations" ?
[23:46] <ndshacker> then unplugged, waited a while and plugged it back in
[23:46] <raylu> pyles17: this was the software i used: http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk
[23:46] <jahbulon> http://rafb.net/p/Rap3bv32.html
[23:46] <jahbulon> frostwire was working fine until i installed eclipse
[23:47] <jahbulon> what do i have to type to make it work.
[23:47] <marqueed> Stupendoussteve: still no dice, and quotes throwing a syntax error
[23:47] <KiRiLoS> Newbee, what's ur native lang?it's possible that there is a channel which uses ur lang
[23:47] <clearscreen> jahbulon: I suggest you just install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[23:47] <raylu> Newbee: when you use 'aptitude remove foo', it also removes packages installed only for foo's dependencies and foo's recommendations. if you use --without-recommends as an alias, you won't get the recommended packages removed
[23:47] <pyles17> raylu: thanks, i'll try it out
[23:47] <Stupendoussteve> marqueed: Try without the quotes then, I don't put variables in the cli often
[23:47] <marqueed> Stupendoussteve: no go without the quotes either :(
[23:47] <jahbulon> clearscreen: i already have that
[23:47] <jahbulon> how does that make frostwire work ?
[23:48] <abadd> so..
[23:48] <marqueed> i've been relinking /usr/bin/python, but this is the only script that requires 2.5, so i'd rather not do that
[23:48] <Newbee> raylu: oh, I see the problem. So it would be better to use an aptitude install  to aptitude --without-recommends install alias. But an aptitude option would be better.
[23:48] <clearscreen> jahbulon: it install java, your eclipse install might have removed some stuff that shouldnt have been removed
[23:49] <raylu> Newbee: try man apt.conf
[23:49] <bjb_nyj101> j
[23:49] <raylu> Newbee: 'man aptitude' says at the bottom that you can have per-user and system-wide config files for apt
[23:49] <Newbee> raylu: does aptitude use the same conig as apt?
[23:49] <lstarnes> Newbee: yes
