[09:19] <mikewdhd> Yikes! What will we do without mirth?
[09:19] <Popoi> stone123_: I have found it! :D
[09:19] <LjL> cannibalhuman: i can't see any "undelete" program available in the Ubuntu repositories that deals with FAT partitions, though that's possible in theory
[09:19] <mikewdhd> The entire world needs mirth!
[09:19] <LjL> !pastebin > mbdl    (mbdl, see the private message from Ubotu)
[09:19] <kazol> I can't mount a volume, what do I do?
[09:19] <Lattyware> FLSimpsonKPT: Yeah, but it's likely to work the same.
[09:19] <IndyGunFreak> FLSimpsonKPT: not to dampen your spirits, several threads on Ubuntuforums about that, and none appear to have resolution
[09:20] <LjL> cannibalhuman: on the other hand, there's certainly plenty of such programs for Windows and DOS...
[09:20] <FITorion> OK finally after much pain and sufering I have managed to mount my 4 500 gb drives
[09:20] <kylequamme> puff: a modular livecd
[09:20] <kazol> FITorion: how?
[09:20] <FLSimpsonKPT> >< Damn
[09:20] <soundray> doseryder: the backtick trick is only necessary if you want to feed the output from some command to something else on the commandline. If there's nothing much else in the script, consider calling myProgram directly from /etc/rc.local
[09:20] <FITorion> Now can someone please explain how to use mdadm to raid 5 them together
[09:20] <LjL> cannibalhuman: however, the same "testdisk" package that i mentioned *does* also support FAT, and "photorec" (as the name implies...) is specifically made for recovering pictures
[09:20] <mbdl> LjL: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11388/
[09:21] <LjL> cannibalhuman: so it's still probably quite worth giving a shot
[09:21] <cannibalhuman> LjL: ok thank you i will try it
[09:21] <cannibalhuman> ciao
[09:21] <kazol> When I right click on the 2nd. hd and mount, it says it cannot mount. What do I do?
[09:21] <LjL> mbdl: uhm, there is no error in there. could it just have been a transient problem?
[09:21] <soundray> doseryder: btw, the $() notation is superseding the backticks
[09:21] <shadu> kylequamme: shouldnt smbtree work?
[09:22] <LjL> mbdl: also, i see from there that you have the "edgy-proposed" repository enabled. that is a BAD THING, disable it now
[09:22] <MK007> I'v Installed the nvidia divers on my box but in kde i still cant get the Gl screen savers to work any ideas?
[09:22] <FITorion> Kazol  are you asking because you are trying to do it?
[09:22] <mbdl> LjL: what it is saying theres failed downloads.... not an eror but my quesiton was is it because servers are down
[09:22] <kazol> I can't mount the 2nd. hd
[09:22] <kylequamme> shadu: idk, never used it
[09:22] <kylequamme> !smbtree
[09:22] <kazol> That's why I'm asking
[09:22] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about smbtree - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:22] <FITorion> what type is it IDE or Sata?
[09:22] <LjL> mbdl: but in what you pastebinned there are *no* failed downloads
[09:22] <kazol> ide
[09:22] <LjL> mbdl: only in the screenshot
[09:23] <LjL> mbdl: so perhaps any server problems are fixed now. try again from Synaptic, i guess
[09:23] <FITorion> if you go to the dev file can you see an icon for it
[09:23] <mbdl> LjL: all the Ign one are the ones showing as failed
[09:23] <kylequamme> shadu: tht's just a browser
[09:23] <kazol> where?
[09:23] <Mirth> Anyone know what file has the font settings?  My font in Firefox is too small
[09:23] <MK007> I'v Installed the nvidia divers on my box but in kde i still cant get the Gl screen savers to work any ideas?
[09:23] <IndyGunFreak> Mirth: hold control, scroll wheel up
[09:23] <kylequamme> shadu: did u follow the instructions on ubuntuguide to try and get a folder to show up?
[09:23] <shadu> kylequamme: ah k, just trying to find a command to transfer a file (need to use root for it)
[09:24] <FITorion> in the filesystem look for the file dev
[09:24] <kane77> hi
[09:24] <Nullbyte> Guys, why would anyone use lilo?
[09:24] <mbdl> LjL: ex Ign http://archive.ubuntu.com edgy-updates/universe Translation-en_CA
[09:24] <mbdl> it starts with ign and those are the ones that failed
[09:24] <shadu> kylequamme: uhm yes think so.. dont know if its working
[09:24] <IndyGunFreak> Nullbyte: some people like it,
[09:24] <kane77> is there any software that would create encrypted partition on my usb drive?
[09:24] <LjL> mbdl: well, those aren't fatal errors. anyway, pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list file and i'll see if it looks alright (no, i don't think that's a server problem anyway)
[09:24] <IndyGunFreak> i used to prefer it to grub
[09:24] <kylequamme> shadu: check with nautilus
[09:24] <soundray> Nullbyte: for nostalgic reasons
[09:24] <l90bpm> Edit and then Preff. to change just firefox's
[09:24] <soundray> Nullbyte: some people say it fits the unix paradigm better, and that grub is bloated
[09:24] <shadu> kylequamme: where should it stand then?
[09:25] <Mirth> Thanks IndyGunFreak
[09:25] <kylequamme> soundray: haha, or if ur a slackware type person
[09:25] <FITorion> you said it's the second one so it should be hdb
[09:25] <l90bpm> unless I missed something
[09:25] <shadu> kylequamme: coz if i look at windows network it wont show anything..
[09:25] <Nullbyte> soundray: Hehe, I see
[09:25] <LjL> mbdl: problems on the servers would give you totally different errors, not "ign"s
[09:25] <soundray> kylequamme: that's what I mean, nostalgia ;)
[09:25] <Nullbyte> Thanks IndyGunFreak and soundray (:
[09:25] <IndyGunFreak> Mirth: no prob, i actually just realized though, its scroll wheel down to enlarge..lol, sure you found that out.
[09:25] <Mirth> Yeah, hehe! ^_^
[09:25] <mbdl> LjL:
[09:25] <kazol> FITorion: 1. The drive states "AT Compatible", is that IDE?
[09:25] <mbdl> LjL: ok
[09:25] <kylequamme> soundray: hey now, that was my first ever linux distro... boy did it make me learn a lot
[09:25] <MK007> Anyone got a spear min to help my sort out a nvidia driver problem?
[09:25] <l90bpm> edit/pref  right in firefox to change fonts
[09:26] <kylequamme> shadu: something ain't working right then
[09:26] <bur[n] er> now that lupine's repos are gone, I'm so lost with Nvidia drivers... sorry MK007
[09:26] <shadu> kylequamme: already guessed that, otherwise i would already be printing ^^
[09:26] <kylequamme> soundray: ;)
[09:26] <niktaris> hello, how do I use rythmbox as the default cd audio player instead of soundjuicer?
[09:26] <FITorion> did you connect it with a ribon?  that's IDE... the important thing is the name is it hdb?
[09:26] <kazol> FITorion: 2. I am in the /dev folder. What do I do next?-I see the hdb drive but can't open it.
[09:26] <angela_> why does ubuntu make a 1.5gb swap partition using the default automatic partitioning , resulting in low performance after booting in the new system.. i have 512ram and it does a 1.5gb swap if i leave it by itself.. and then ubuntu works slower than normal
[09:27] <FITorion> ok good
[09:27] <FITorion> now open a terminal
[09:27] <kylequamme> shadu: LOL, yea that last comment was pretty dumb, lol. Did you tell it not to use a WINS sever?
[09:27] <kazol> ok
[09:27] <mbdl> LjL: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11389/
[09:27] <linxeh> angela_: eh? it should only use the swap if it needs it
[09:27] <soundray> angela_: if ubuntu works 'slower than normal', it is not because of the size of the swap partition.
[09:27] <shadu> kylequamme: how you mean?
[09:27] <LjL> angela_: uh? you might call that a waste of space, perhaps (3 times your RAM, well that's a lot), but why do you think it would make it work slower than normal?
[09:27] <blue|palm> My friend has installed ubuntu via the alternate cd, but x keeps crashing (he has installed already) at login
[09:27] <MK007> burn[n] er: well my problem isnt about the drivers them self more that i cant get them to work in kde
[09:27] <angela_> guys in #kubuntu told me the swap size is the problem
[09:27] <juannicolas> !ati
[09:27] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:27] <FITorion> type in " sudo mke2fs -j /dev/hdb"
[09:28] <sambiase> hi...i wonder what is the command in Terminal to Untar a TAR file? I want to open that archive in a folder that contains some equal files...so i want to be able to replace with the new files
[09:28] <kylequamme> shadu: well the line in smb.conf that mentions a WINS server should be commented out, like mine
[09:28] <FITorion> minus the "" of course
[09:28] <angela_> and its true, some linux books say too much swap hurts performance
[09:28] <sambiase> but i dont know the command
[09:28] <linxeh> LjL: depends what you do on your machine, and how you run apps - eg for me 2.5GB swap is about right on a 1GB machine
[09:28] <soundray> blue|palm: you may find hints as to why it crashes in /var/log/Xorg.0.log or $HOME/.xsession-errors
[09:29] <kazol> I get this: /dev/hdb is apparently in use by the system; will not make a filesystem here!
[09:29] <linxeh> angela_: which books, and what date were they published ?
[09:29] <Netham45> !python-cario
[09:29] <LjL> linxeh: *more* swap cannot be worse than *less* swap (except for the disk wastage, of course), unless there are *bugs in the kernel*
[09:29] <soundray> angela_: your Linux books are seriously outdated
[09:29] <FITorion> damn
[09:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about python-cario - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:29] <kylequamme> kazol: try unmounting it
[09:29] <angela_> ok
[09:29] <shadu> kylequamme: "wins server = w.x.y.z" that one?
[09:29] <linxeh> LjL: no I meant about wasteage, not performance
[09:29] <kane77> is there any software that would create encrypted partition on my usb drive?
[09:29] <angela_> then why does kubuntu work slow
[09:29] <kylequamme> shadu: yea
[09:29] <kristin> is there any way to apt-get build-essential without having to put the ubuntu disk in
[09:29] <angela_> it takes ages to load apps sometimes
[09:29] <kazol> kylequamme: how?
[09:29] <linxeh> angela_: maybe some other reason. did you check top to see what was consuming the cpu ?
[09:29] <shadu> kylequamme: it is now
[09:29] <kylequamme> angela_: what video driver are u using?
[09:30] <LjL> mbdl, your sources.list seems fine, and on my *own* system, the "Translation" parts also result in "Ign". if you ask me, i'd say everything's normal.
[09:30] <linxeh> angela_: have you checked the output of "free -m" to see how much ram / swap is in use, etc
[09:30] <Rprp> Hi, can someone help me? When i boot Feisty (Kernel 2.6.20) i get the follow error: udevd-event[2046] : run_program: '/sbin/modprobe' abnormal exit <--- does someone know how to fix this?
[09:30] <angela_> linxeh: yes and the load average was like 0 0 0 or something no big apps running
[09:30] <kylequamme> kazol umount "mount point of hdb"
[09:30] <soundray> angela_: see if you have a CPU hog. Run top and observe the top three or four lines for a while
[09:30] <kazol> I don't get how this hd could be in use.
[09:30] <kylequamme> kazol: umount "mount point of hdb"
[09:30] <mbdl> LjL: hum thats weird well ok
[09:30] <mbdl> LjL: thx
[09:30] <LjL> angela_: so, you've previously run Kubuntu on the *same* computer, and it worked faster? and it had less swap?
[09:30] <angela_> kylequamme: ati radeon 9550 with ati driver
[09:30] <FITorion> I don't know ... I only know what I was able to do... this is my first day with linux
[09:30] <LjL> if else, how did you reach your conclusions?
[09:30] <shadu> kylequamme: still nothing
[09:31] <doseryder> soundray: okay that helps even more, cause my real objective is simply loading my desired programs at startup and thats all.  It makes more sense for me to just insert program paths in the rc.local.  Of course I will keep in mind that if I want to do something fancy in the future I can always write scripts.
[09:31] <angela_> LjL: i ran kubuntu, it was too slow and it had 1.5gb swap(guys in #kubuntu told me that was a problem) and now im in ubuntu
[09:31] <angela_> but its still not fast
[09:31] <shadu> kylequamme: i'll try deleting samba and cups and reinstalling
[09:31] <linxeh> angela_: what is too slow? what are you comparing it against ?
[09:31] <kazol> I get this: umount: /hdb is not mounted (according to mtab)
[09:31] <kylequamme> shadu: sounds like a good idea, start fresh
[09:31] <soundray> doseryder: if you're talking about applications, it makes more sense to launch those at login than at boot
[09:31] <Popoi> I can't find libcups.so.2 on archive.ubuntu.com ... I need libcups.so.2 x86 version to my Ubuntu AMD64.... someone know how can I install it?
[09:31] <angela_> linxeh: compared to ms windows 2000/xp/even vista kubuntu felt like it was infected with viruses eating cpu cycles
[09:31] <FITorion> if it's being used then that must mean... it's mounted and has a file system already...
[09:31] <kylequamme> shadu: make sure u do a completely remove so it purges the configs
[09:31] <LjL> angela_, i have no idea what the problem may be (if there *is* a problem... you know, perception of slowness varies among people, and slowness itself varies among computers), but i'm quite positive it's not swap
[09:32] <rafa_> i nedd help about parport in gambas
[09:32] <secion9> How to remove package that was installed from source with the ./configure make make instsall routine
[09:32] <soundray> Popoi: it's in the libcupsys2 .deb package
[09:32] <kazol> I think I installed Ubuntu on it, but it's slave to the main hd I just installed Ubuntu on.
[09:32] <linxeh> angela_: in my experience X doesnt feel quite as snappy as windows 2k/xp when dragging windows around etc. it is important to get the right drivers install too
[09:32] <LjL> angela_: still, you could 1) disable swap (sudo swapoff -a)  2) fire up gparted  3) resize your swap partition to something smaller  4) reboot.... and see if it gets any faster. if you really think swap is the cause.
[09:32] <kazol> Maybe I should put the hd's on separate channels?
[09:32] <FITorion> good luck... I figured out how to mount mine by googleing Gentoo and looking at the hand book
[09:33] <edmondt> Do you guys thing ubuntu is faster than xp or vista on the same machine?
[09:33] <linxeh> angela_: I've been using X on x86 linux for around 12 years now, and thats been my experience from day one
[09:33] <soundray> secion9: follow the instructions for uninstalling that came with the package
[09:33] <angela_> linxeh: i have all right drivers installed, imnot running any big apps at all, its just the default kubuntu/kde wich is slow when starting and running apps also sings of instability can be seen in places by apps that hang etc
[09:33] <doseryder> soundray: what does rc stand for off the top of your head, if you can't remember its okay, i can always google that one :>
[09:33] <linxeh> edmondt: I'm more efficient on the same machine, and generally my programs run marginally faster; there isnt much in it though really
[09:33] <kazol> would putting hds on separate channels help?
[09:33] <rafa_> i nedd help about parport in gambas
[09:33] <kylequamme> edmondt: i dual boot on my lappy, and i'd say so
[09:33] <LjL> angela_: i agree with that, refresh while moving or resizing Windows is quite lacking in responsiveness under Ubuntu compared to Windows, currently and unfortunately. also, if i have to be honest, i'd say both GNOME and KDE tend to make programs way slower to start than the Win32 API do
[09:33] <lamha> i am using ubuntu and wanted to run a perl script. please guide me what do i need to install
[09:33] <FITorion> still searching for someone who knows raid... anyone?
[09:33] <soundray> secion9: if there aren't any, you have to dissect the Makefile and undo the install steps one by one
[09:33] <shadu> kylequamme: hmm some files of cups remain
[09:33] <kylequamme> edmondt: i dual boot on my lappy, and i'd say so, especially after you get the video drivers set up
[09:33] <linxeh> angela_: what apps are unstable? how do you know it is the apps and not something funny with your hardware affecting X ?
[09:34] <kylequamme> shadu: personally i don't think CUPS is the problem, so it should be ok
[09:34] <LjL> angela_: in other words, if "notepad" takes only a spit second to start on my Windows, "kate" under KDE (or "gedit" under GNOME) take a *couple* of seconds to load on my Ubuntu. on the plus side, they have some more features than notepad ;)
[09:34] <Popoi> soundray: Oh thx man, but how can I intall it from the package? If I try dpkg -i, it would tell me that is not the right architecture
[09:34] <colbert> What's the command to install all packages in a directory? sudo dpkg something ?
[09:34] <kazol> FITorion: I doubt it. I already kept asking for someone who knew about RAID.
[09:34] <shadu> kylequamme: k then i will leave those
[09:34] <soundray> doseryder: no Idea
[09:34] <edmondt> I suppose you're right kylequamme, my ubuntu has tonnes of stuff installed and its still "fast"
[09:34] <FITorion> grrr
[09:34] <linxeh> kate isnt really comparable to notepad though is it  :)
[09:34] <l90bpm> the starter guide has a cure for that too
[09:34] <LjL> colbert: "sudo dpkg -i *.deb", once you are in the directory concerned
[09:34] <soundray> Popoi: I gave you the answer to that already. You have to look up the right --force option in "man dpkg"
[09:34] <l90bpm> slow start firefox
[09:35] <l90bpm> saw it ealier
[09:35] <LjL> linxeh: well, i said that
[09:35] <shadu> kylequamme: i should use sudo apt-get samba ?
[09:35] <angela_> linxeh: koffice hangs each time i use it if i load a large document, klipper is very slow to copy/paste text from the internet, kate/kedit are slow to start, konqueror is slow, there are mime handling problems with text files(bug) etc
[09:35] <lamha> i am using ubuntu and wanted to run a perl script. please guide me what do i need to install in order to run perl script
[09:35] <juannicolas> I got problems to run Beryl and I might thing is something with my ATI drivers, may somebody help me with this please?  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11390/
[09:35] <Popoi> soundray: thx ill check it out
[09:35] <colbert> LjL: Thanks
[09:35] <kylequamme> edmondt: biggest thing i can see is the ability to multi-task is better in linux than XP
[09:35] <angela_> linxeh: also openoffice is INCREDIBLY slow and hangs alot of times
[09:35] <FITorion> the only how too thing i've found for it talks about modifying files that don't exist...
[09:35] <linxeh> angela_: a large document, as in one for MS Word ?
[09:35] <shadu> kylequamme: darn what was that command again (hate my memory -.-)
[09:35] <l90bpm> you can tweak that too
[09:35] <kylequamme> shadu: u had the right one in there
[09:36] <angela_> linxeh: a document of about 300 pages
[09:36] <linxeh> angela_: it sounds like you might be better off sticking with windows
[09:36] <lamha> i am using ubuntu and wanted to run a perl script. please guide me what do i need to install in order to run perl script
[09:36] <linxeh> angela_: where was that document written though?
[09:36] <angela_> linxeh: and there were problem while booting kubuntu with the kernel killing init a few times etc
[09:36] <shadu> kylequamme: "sudo apt-get samba"  should work?
[09:36] <Nullbyte> lamha: Just make it executeable, most distros come with perl
[09:36] <linxeh> angela_: what hardware are you running on?
[09:36] <LjL> angela_: err, it doesn't surprise me very much that KWord takes long to load it. also, if it's a MS Word document, well, compatibility with MS Word isn't *that* perfect.
[09:36] <davidelv> juannicolas: what driver do you use, and what is the error message from beryl?
[09:36] <kylequamme> shadu: no, sudo apt-get install samba
[09:36] <soundray> lamha: perl is installed by default. Just run your script.
[09:37] <shadu> kylequamme: ah i forgot the install! :D
[09:37] <angela_> linxeh: dell optiplex gx260 1.8ghz p4, 512 ddram, ati radeon 9550 128mb on AGP, running linux on 40gb hdd (the main hd wich is fast) and freebsd 6.2 on a older quantum fireball of 10gb wich is the slow hd, and kubuntu is the slow one for me and freebsd is the blazing fast one
[09:37] <LjL> angela_: and yes, i've found the latest versions of Konqueror to (for some reason) hang on pages for quite long, on my relatively slow Celeron 1700
[09:37] <Nullbyte> lamha: To make it executeable, write chmod +x nameofperlscript.pl, and run it with ./nameofperlscript.pl
[09:37] <juannicolas> davidelv well i installed the ATI drivers from the ubuntu help, fglrx and my beryl-manager is working but when i try to select the beryl windowmanager nothing happens
[09:38] <edmondt> kylequamme, reason why I ask is because I'm running vmware server with winXP powered on and I use coherrrence to run programs using rdesktop 1.5, and I think the programs open quicker than ubuntu programs :S
[09:38] <angela_> LjL: its not only konqueror, i find myself having to Terminate Apps in kde quite often
[09:38] <angela_> plus the bugs
[09:38] <Nullbyte> I have to do that too, angela_.. Its quite annoying
[09:39] <edmondt> Internet Explorer on vmware server is faster than IE on wine...
[09:39] <davidelv> juannicolas: try running beryl-manager from a terminal, I run beryl perfectly with a Radeon 9200 mobile with the opensource radeon driver
[09:39] <StueyB> hi everyone, i have popped in here to ask, any news on automatix ? I have looked on the forum and there is no real difinitive answer
[09:39] <angela_> ok and then there are quite some bugs in kde wich i found with file handling
[09:39] <shadu> kylequamme: k now it should be fresh
[09:39] <Hyper-cool> join #ubuntu
[09:39] <linxeh> angela_: which kernel do you have installed ?
[09:39] <juannicolas> davidelv my beryl-manager is running, I got the icon in my taskbar
[09:39] <riaal_> is there any dns update aplications for ubuntu?
[09:39] <nn531> !titlebar
[09:39] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about titlebar - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:39] <kylequamme> edmodt: well that is plausible, that has more to do with the vm software than the machine
[09:40] <angela_> linxeh: 2.6.17-generic one
[09:40] <lamha> Nullbyte, when i try to run my perl script im getting the following error message bash: ./test.pl: /usr/bin/perl^M: bad interpreter: No such file or directory
[09:40] <lamha> ?
[09:40] <nn531> hey guys, when I minimize a window how do I get it to go into a different panel?
[09:40] <juannicolas> davidelv http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11391/
[09:40] <linxeh> angela_: odd :o
[09:40] <angela_> linxeh: and upgraded 3.5.5. kde to 3.5.6
[09:40] <Nullbyte> lamha: You should correct that line
[09:40] <davidelv> juannicolas I mean stop beryl-manager, and start it again from a terminal, then youll see a error message in the termaninal, when you try to select beryl
[09:41] <angela_> as i said, the problems i had with kde being slow and buggy sometimes, with apps hanging etc is one thing but i also experienced kernel and init failures at boot
[09:41] <lamha> Nullbyte,  how do i correct the line? help im a newbie
[09:41] <Nullbyte> lamha: It means that you wrote #! /usr/bin/perl^m instead of #! /usr/bin/perl or whatever it is
[09:41] <juannicolas> davidelv no error msg appears.
[09:41] <juannicolas> hum
[09:41] <juannicolas> ok
[09:41] <juannicolas> i see
[09:41] <juannicolas> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11391/
[09:41] <Hyper-cool> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11392/ this is my blkid. I put the UUID's for the last three entries into fstab but i'm not seeing them mounted
[09:41] <kylequamme> angela_: have u fixed those? something could be broken
[09:41] <Nullbyte> lamha: There should be a line starting with #! at least, thats the one thats not working
[09:41] <LjL> angela_: kernel and init failures are definitely not good at all
[09:42] <ferronica> soundray: okay i have installed now where is the icon
[09:42] <edmondt> kylequamme, my imagination maybe :P  I love my current setup... I get the advantage of linux and I can run any application I want in windows
[09:42] <LjL> angela_: make sure you RAM is ok (there is memtest, you can start it from the GRUB prompt), check your HD (you can use the "smartmontools" package, then "smartctrl -A /dev/yourdrive" and see if any attributes look suspicious), and try starting Ubuntu with the "noapic" and/or "acpi=off" kernel option
[09:42] <davidelv> juannicolas: you have to enable composite
[09:43] <kylequamme> edmondt: yea, i am doing a persuasive project in school right now dealing with using linux or linux over windows when doing internet stuff to minimize security risks
[09:43] <shadu> kylequamme: i should use the smb.conf you gave?
[09:43] <angela_> LjL: yea i know.. and i still want to run kubuntu i will reinstall it again with a right swap size to see if problems are less now, but if not, freebsd runs perfectly on my hardware and im gonna drop linux
[09:43] <FordCapri> is there no way i can get svnsync from apt-get?
[09:43] <ferronica> soundray: are you here ??
[09:43] <kylequamme> shadu: u can try it
[09:43] <kylequamme> shadu: might work, dunno though
[09:43] <juannicolas> davidelv Option  "Composite"     "Enable"   ?
[09:44] <angela_> LjL: done that before just of plain curiosity, and everyting is ok hardware-wise
[09:44] <angela_> the computer runs fine
[09:44] <ferronica> soundray:  i have installed the disc cover where is program ICON : (
[09:44] <ferronica> soundray:  i have installed the disc cover where is program ICON :(
[09:44] <angela_> something makes kubuntu run slow on my hardware though, and its not processes
[09:44] <davidelv> juannicolas: yes, then problem is when you do that DRI doesnt work anymore right?
[09:44] <LjL> angela_, if kernel and/or init fail, there's *certainly* something wrong with either your hardware or the interaction between it and linux. i can't blame you if you use a kernel that you know works...
[09:44] <nn531> hey guys, when I minimize a window how do I get it to go into a different panel?
[09:44] <juannicolas> right
[09:45] <ferronica> Can any one tell me where it is?????
[09:45] <juannicolas> Well i got the Section "DRI"
[09:45] <Hyper-cool> I'd like some help working with fstab if anyone is familiar with it. I'm trying to get some partitions to mount on boot with rw_ permissions. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11393/
[09:45] <linxeh> angela_: so you have the same versions of x, kde, drivers etc on freebsd, and ubuntu is much slower?
[09:45] <crdlb> nn531, move the window list applet
[09:45] <juannicolas> in my xorg.file
[09:45] <stone123_> nn531, i dont understand elaborate
[09:45] <LjL> angela_, the "slow" issue is hard to say anything about, but the kernel failing is a clear sign of something very wrong, that's the point
[09:45] <nn531> crdlb: what?
[09:45] <ferronica> stone123: can you tell me???
[09:45] <shadu> kylequamme: whats the command to transfer a file by using the console?
[09:45] <nn531> stone123_: when you minimize a window it goes to the bottom panel, how do I get it to the top
[09:45] <ferronica> stone123:  i have installed the disc cover where is program ICON :(
[09:45] <Trickser> hi, i have installed the acroread-7.0.9 package. When I look into the help menu the version of Acrobat Reader it shows it is the 7.0.8 version... why?
[09:45] <crdlb> nn531, the taskbar applet (window list) will have a little gripper thing to the left of it
[09:45] <angela_> linxeh: on the freebsd side things are older(older X,older gcc,older libs etc) than on kubuntu and its also on a slow 10gb hard drive but its fast,responsive,stable
[09:46] <shadu> kylequamme: or do you know a site with all commands listed?
[09:46] <crdlb> nn531, use that gripper to drag it to a different panel
[09:46] <davidelv> juannicolas: It is a problem in the ATI driver.. I use the opensource radeon driver, and activate composite, and beryl is blazing
[09:46] <kylequamme> shadu cp "source path" "destination path"
[09:46] <stone123_> nn531, you need to add that on panel .
[09:46] <kylequamme> shadu :cp "source path" "destination path"
[09:46] <angela_> nevertheless, i will reinstall kubuntu
[09:46] <CharlieChester> still looking for advice on how to add a "recently opened documents" shortcut on my launch tool bar in gnome.
[09:46] <angela_> and see about it
[09:46] <Nullbyte> lamha: is it working?
[09:46] <kylequamme> shadu: cp "source path" "destination path"
[09:46] <lamha> Nullbyte,  #!/usr/bin/perl is the written in script i also have changed it to  #!/usr/bin/perl^M but again another error message  bash: ./test.pl: /usr/bin/perl^M^M: bad interpreter: No such file or directory
[09:46] <angela_> i also had problems with kdm though
[09:46] <juannicolas> davidelv  so i should remove that section from my xorg file?
[09:46] <kylequamme> shadu: sudo apt-get install mc
[09:46] <LjL> angela_: the slowness issues *might* be due (just a random thought!) to interrupt controlling somehow going crazy, and triggering tons of useless interrupts each second. i've heard of things like that before on bug reports
[09:46] <stone123_> ferronica, whats the program name . use menu config to add debian menu .
[09:46] <kylequamme> shadu: then run sudo mc
[09:46] <linxeh> angela_: it might be worth trying an older version of kubuntu just to see what happens
[09:47] <angela_> LjL: anything is possible...
[09:47] <kylequamme> shadu: it will become ur best friend
[09:47] <nn531> crdlb: what if i alredy deleted that panel
[09:47] <linxeh> angela_: I'm running kubuntu here on two machines, and have run it on a similar dell machine at work with no problems
[09:47] <ferronica> stone123:  i have installed the disc cover where is program ICON :(
[09:47] <angela_> linxeh: i ran an older version of kubuntu namely 5.10 and then i started upgrading all over to 6.10
[09:47] <davidelv> juannicolas: you have to have composite and DRI enabled
[09:47] <juannicolas> ok
[09:47] <ferronica> stone123:  i have installed the disc cover
[09:47] <juannicolas> brb
[09:47] <crdlb> nn531, then add a new on (right click- add to panel - window list)
[09:47] <linxeh> angela_: ah; so you've upgraded rather than installing ?
[09:47] <crdlb> one*
[09:47] <ferronica> stone123:  i have installed the disc cover for CD label print
[09:47] <LjL> angela_: if you don't have problems with messing around with your case's internals, you can try unplugging one board at a time. i'd start with the sound card, i've read some reports about it being a source of spurious interrupts on some systems
[09:47] <shadu> kylequamme: a thing you can use when starting with linux :P
[09:47] <angela_> linxeh: yea 5.10 -> 6.10
[09:47] <angela_> and then kde 3.5.6
[09:47] <nn531> crdlb: ahh window list... couldnt think of the name thanlks
[09:48] <linxeh> angela_: ahh - i was advised to go 5.10 -> 6.06 -> 6.10, or reinstall - so I did the latter
[09:48] <kylequamme> shadu: the f keys work so well with mc
[09:48] <linxeh> angela_:  was 5.10 stable and responsive?
[09:48] <ferronica> stone123:  :(
[09:48] <angela_> linxeh: ofcourse... only possible way to upgrade ubuntu/kubuntu is trough upgrading trough each release.. so its only  possible by 5.10-6.06-6.10
[09:48] <m1r> someone here using LTSP ?
[09:49] <angela_> linxeh: i wouldnt call kde too responsive and stable , but 5.10 ran better than 6.10
[09:49] <CharlieChester> ? add "recent documents" icon to taskbar in gnome?
[09:49] <stone123_> ferronica, open terminal and type : disc-cover
[09:49] <fivemack> Good evening, everyone
[09:49] <kylequamme> angela_: what i do is make my /home directory another partition and install from CD for every release
[09:49] <riaal> are there any gnu ftp clients?
[09:49] <Shirmpy_> when fiesty fawn comes out. will i lose everything when i upgrade?
[09:49] <LjL> Shirmpy_: no
[09:49] <fivemack> Thanks for the advice to use feisty, it's working nicely for me
[09:49] <angela_> LjL: i need the soundcard for music, i wont do this just to make kubuntu run better on my hardware ;P
[09:50] <juannicolas> davidelv Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
[09:50] <kylequamme> angela_: you have to do a lot of installs again, but at least all ur personal stuff stays intact
[09:50] <bur[n] er> Shirmpy_, no
[09:50] <angela_> kylequamme: no problem anymore now, im installing from a 6.10 cd
[09:50] <LjL> angela_, i meant it as a troubleshooting measure (i.e. to find out what's causing the problem), not as a permanent setup :)
[09:50] <russe11> I'm sharing some files on my ubuntu computer (using "shared folders") I notice that I seem to need to enter a username/password to access them from a windows computer, but not from another Ubuntu computer. I don't want other people on my LAN to be able to access the files I'm sharing. Should I be concerned?
[09:50] <fivemack> except that at the moment I have a GDM process running on the whole of one of my cores
[09:50] <Shirmpy_> LJL: so i won't need to reinstall everything like the first time i insalled linux: bur[n] er
[09:50] <riaal> I ment, are there any GNU ftp server clients??
[09:50] <juannicolas> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11394/
[09:50] <juannicolas> thats my xrog.conf
[09:50] <nn531> is there a way to change the title bar colors/transparancy without changing the theme?
[09:50] <LjL> Shirmpy_: it the upgrade goes ok, no.
[09:50] <ferronica> stone123:  not found
[09:50] <bur[n] er> russe11, your user/pass the same on both ubuntu's?  no user/pass necessary then
[09:51] <angela_> LjL: things are wrong in kde , the foundation (linux) is fine
[09:51] <Shirmpy_> LJL: ok thanks just wondering
[09:51] <LjL> Shirmpy_: and even if it does not go ok, you won't "lose everything"
[09:51] <bur[n] er> riaal, ?
[09:51] <bw153> is there anything that is similar to the EQ analyzers in amarok, but a fullscreen version?
[09:51] <Hyper-cool> I'd like some help working with fstab if anyone is familiar with it. I'm trying to get some partitions to mount on boot with rw_ permissions. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11393/
[09:51] <stone123_> ferronica, open terminal and type : disc-cover
[09:51] <LjL> angela_: with kernel and init failures?! sorry if i doubt that...
[09:51] <stone123_> without :
[09:51] <Shirmpy_> LjL: anohter reason i love ubuntu
[09:51] <Shirmpy_> lol
[09:51] <kylequamme> angela_: are u already installing files, cuz if you can i would strongly recommend making a separate partition for /home
[09:51] <russe11> bur[n] er: Username is the same, but not the password.
[09:51] <riaal> bur[n] er, grapical tools for configuring a ftp server
[09:51] <ferronica> stone123:  i did
[09:51] <Huffalump> Anyone here use ntfs-3g?  I'm having trouble mounting a drive.
[09:51] <ferronica> stone123:  and typed disc-cover
[09:51] <angela_> LjL: actually no kernel failures i think, just some process being killed imeddiately after boot and inability to mount filesystems
[09:51] <bur[n] er> riaal, sure... pure-ftpd has a gui... as does proftpd... gproftpd
[09:51] <fivemack> what is the magic word to get the list of all the packages you have installed so I can install them all again when real-feisty comes out?
[09:52] <LjL> angela_: and that problem got "magically" fixed at next boot?
[09:52] <angela_> kylequamme: i will make a separate /home /boot and will not use lvm
[09:52] <bur[n] er> fivemack, you just upgrade, you don't have to reinstall
[09:52] <ferronica> ferro@ferro-desktop:~$ disc-cover
[09:52] <angela_> LjL: yes only happened 2 times in many boots
[09:52] <bur[n] er> fivemack, for the record, it's dpkg -l
[09:52] <ferronica> stone123:  like thsis
[09:52] <angela_> mostly when i powered off pc without unmounting filesystems
[09:52] <LjL> angela_: ... and you say Linux doesn't have a problem? =)
[09:52] <fivemack> bur[n] er: even if I'm currently running a feisty pre-release?
[09:53] <LjL> angela_, processes shouldn't get killed immediately after boot. *ever*.
[09:53] <bur[n] er> even if fiveiron
[09:53] <bur[n] er> er... fivemack
[09:53] <ferronica> stone123:  what i do???
[09:53] <Shirmpy_> bur[n] er: when you upgrade do you have to download an iso then burn it to a cd and boot it up or is it like a package?
[09:53] <angela_> LjL: ok i know, so it might be  a kernel problem maybe
[09:53] <angela_> afterall
[09:53] <fivemack> bur[n] er: that's even more excellent than I thought it would be :)
[09:53] <stone123_> ferronica, open terminal and type : sudo apt-get install disc-cover
[09:53] <bur[n] er> Shirmpy_, either... you just change /etc/apt/sources.list to reference feisty instead of edgy and apt-get upgrade :)
[09:53] <kylequamme> angela_: good deal... another advantage of a independant /home is the abilty to switch distro somewhat painless
[09:53] <Nullbyte> Huffalump: I am, whats wrong?
[09:53] <bur[n] er> Shirmpy_, there'sa  gui tool too... update-manager -c, but don't run it yet
[09:53] <eternaljoy> i did an update and upgrade and now I have no sound.  How can I fix this please?
[09:54] <ferronica> stone123:  Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[09:54] <angela_> kylequamme: good point, i think im gonna use this trick
[09:54] <ferronica> stone123:  : (
[09:54] <bur[n] er> eternaljoy, feisty by chance?  if it's edgy, i'm at a loss... if it's feisty boot the older kernel
[09:54] <Popoi> How can I intall a 32bits app on an 64bits Ubuntu without replace my 64bits libraries? (that would broke the system)
[09:54] <angela_> office applications were the horror problems on my kubuntu
[09:54] <eternaljoy> bur[n] er, edgy
[09:54] <Shirmpy_> bur[n] er: ok thanks. hopefully when it's out they will have a gui so i can spend countless hours catching windows and fire and then let it rain lolo
[09:54] <bur[n] er> Shirmpy_, for sure :)
[09:55] <shadu> kylequamme: still cant see anything in the windows network on this pc..
[09:55] <stone123_> ferronica, you can use this program instead : koverartist
[09:55] <stone123_> !info koverartist
[09:55] <ubotu> koverartist: program for the fast creation of covers for CD/DVD cases and boxes. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.3.2-0ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 126 kB, installed size 504 kB
[09:55] <Huffalump> Nullbyte - just a moment.  I want to pastebin
[09:55] <kylequamme> shadu: did you totally disable the firewall
[09:55] <Huffalump> Nullbyte - I am unable to mount the drive
[09:56] <ferronica> stone123:  but where is that i installed
[09:56] <shadu> kylequamme: firestarter aint running..
[09:56] <angela_> is there any way  to resize swap partition without re-partitioning it ?
[09:56] <Nullbyte> Huffalump, sure, im not going anywhere :)
[09:56] <crdlb> angela_, you can resize partitions with the gparted live cd
[09:56] <angela_> resize on the run?
[09:56] <Huffalump> Nullbyte - http://pastebin.ca/405585
[09:56] <bur[n] er> angela_, resizing a partition is repartitioning by definition
[09:56] <stone123_> !repos | ferronica
[09:56] <ubotu> ferronica: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[09:56] <angela_> bur[n] er: when i meant repartitioning, i meant having to delete the swap
[09:56] <Xikeon> Hello
[09:57] <bur[n] er> you don't have to delete it... just unmount it
[09:57] <kylequamme> shadu: ok, but did u disable iptables?
[09:57] <shadu> kylequamme: and now its totally disabled.. well stopped
[09:57] <Xikeon> I'm wanting to go back to Windos XP, is there anything I must know or do before I throw in my cd?
[09:57] <bur[n] er> why wouldn't you delete a swap?  who cares about a swap? ;)
[09:57] <nn531> is there a way to change the title bar colors/transparancy without changing the theme?
[09:57] <Nullbyte> Huffalump: Heh, you just dont have a folder called /mnt/windows
[09:57] <angela_> bur[n] er:  and after unmount what do i use to resize it
[09:57] <bur[n] er> Xikeon, you're giving away freedoms ;)
[09:57] <Huffalump> Nullbyte - So, I create that manually?
[09:58] <Host46> hi, what package installs the pthreads manpages?? I tried libpthreads-dev but installs libpthreads20 and conflicts with libc6-dev
[09:58] <bur[n] er> angela_, you need to use a livecd.. cause you'll have to repartition other partitions I'm sure... I'm guessin you don't ahev non-partitioned space next to the swap partition
[09:58] <bur[n] er> angela_, use gparted on the ubuntu disk
[09:58] <Xikeon> bur[n] er: I prefer Windows more, this seems slower on my laptop and lots stuff I like better on windows. Though some things are nicer
[09:58] <Nullbyte> Huffalump: Yes, you do! Write sudo mkdir /mnt/windows
[09:58] <bur[n] er> angela_, or qtparted on the kubuntu disk
[09:58] <Huffalump> Nullbyte - D'oh!
[09:58] <shadu> kylequamme: shouldnt there be a connection at port 631?
[09:58] <billy> greeetings fellow earth_creatures.
[09:58] <bur[n] er> Xikeon, you asked ;)
[09:58] <Nullbyte> Huffalump: ^^
[09:59] <fivemack> does linux automatically use both swap partitions if you have two, or do you have to cause synaptic to do something baroque in startup scripts to get that to work?
[09:59] <eternaljoy> i did an update and upgrade and now I have no sound.  How can I fix this please?
[09:59] <Nullbyte> Huffalump: Shouldnt it say mount -t instead of just mount by the way?
[09:59] <Xikeon> bur[n] er: is it hard to reinstall windows?
[09:59] <bur[n] er> Xikeon, compared to ubuntu?  yes :)
[09:59] <Nullbyte> Huffalump: No, forget that, doh
[09:59] <bur[n] er> Xikeon, didn't you set up a dualbooter?
[09:59] <bur[n] er> Xikeon, what are the specs of the lappy?  try xubuntu if it's older?
[09:59] <billy> eternaljoy: the kernel must have updated.  Did you have to tweak stuff before to get the sound owrking?
[09:59] <shiggity> hey is anyone here willing to help a ubuntu user who needs to use windows for games, and therefore has windows issues?
[09:59] <Xikeon> bur[n] er: I'm on Ubuntu now, but this uses different stuff as drives.. And nope, no dualboot
[09:59] <eternaljoy> billy, no
[10:00] <shiggity> I can't uninstall a program that I really need to uninstall
[10:00] <eternaljoy> billy, what can I do now?
[10:00] <warriorness> Hey all, what kernel version does the latest LiveCD have?
[10:00] <bur[n] er> Xikeon,  uses different stuff as drives?
[10:00] <Huffalump> Nullbyte, I tried that as well and got the same error message
[10:00] <Xikeon> bur[n] er: Yes, like / and swap etc?
[10:00] <Nullbyte> Huffalump: You tried making the folder?
[10:00] <angela_> is kubuntu slower than ubuntu because of kde ?
[10:00] <bur[n] er> Xikeon, it's not so bad once you get used to the idea... all removable stuff goes in /media
[10:00] <billy> eternaljoy: what sort of audio device do you have?  If you don't know, type `lspci` in a terminal and look for your audio device.
[10:01] <Constantino> hi
[10:01] <bur[n] er> Xikeon, fore the most part, all that is hidden by the gui anyway... it's the same as a mac
[10:01] <stone123_> angela_, both are slow
[10:01] <Xikeon> bur[n] er: yes, but can the windows cd just make it normal again as windows wants it?
[10:01] <bur[n] er> Xikeon, you'll have to get drivers
[10:01] <nightwatch> hi there, I have an ubuntu server installed and I need graphic desktop, but I'd like it with minimum components installed.. the package xubuntu-desktop have too much packages then I need.. I tried to install xfce4 xdm and xserver-xorg but I got no success, it fails due lack of fonts... , can somebody help?
[10:01] <billy> isn't there a `lspci | grep audio` or something along those lines?
[10:01] <eternaljoy> how can I update to alsa-driver 1.0.13
[10:01] <Xikeon> shit
[10:02] <clouder`grr> Any suggestions on a podcast subscriber/player that also plays back video podcasts?
[10:02] <bur[n] er> Xikeon, i would advise giving xubuntu a shot if it was slow... or kubuntu
[10:02] <stone123_> nightwatch, search x fonts core
[10:02] <oblio> hi all !
[10:02] <billy> eternaljoy: there's a link in ubuntuforums.org.  just a sec.
[10:02] <kylequamme> shadu: i think
[10:02] <eternaljoy> billy, whats pastebin can I use to show you?
[10:02] <Xikeon> bur[n] er: Nah, I want to go back to Windows XP
[10:02] <billy> !pastebin | eternaljoy
[10:02] <eternaljoy> !pastebin
[10:02] <ubotu> eternaljoy: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[10:02] <LjL> angela_: i have a vague recollection of several people having complained about some process being killed very early in the init sequence, but can't find that in my logs or among bug reports... the advice that remains, though an obvious one, is to check your logs for anything suspicious. errors during boot, complains about spurious interrupts, complains about /dev/hdsomething getting I/O errors, problems when plugging or unplugging USB peripherals...
[10:02] <m1r> !ltsp
[10:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ltsp - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[10:02] <eternaljoy> billy, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11398/
[10:03] <m1r> anyone using LTSP ?
[10:03] <angela_> LjL: ok if i will receive the problems again i will check
[10:03] <eternaljoy> billy, shold I update to alsa-driver 1.0.13?
[10:03] <billy> eternaljoy:  you just need to download the latest alsa drivers, that's all.  worked for me at least.
[10:03] <LjL> angela_: there's also this bug reports that claims the system fails to boot correctly after an fsck (which would seem like your description - i.e. not cleaning unmounted fs), but then it says it just gets stuck, nothing gets killed. have a look anyway https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/upstart/+bug/83831
[10:03] <billy> eternaljoy:  1.0.12 worked for me.
[10:03] <eternaljoy> billy,  how?
[10:03] <billy> eternaljoy: one sec.
[10:03] <eternaljoy> billy, download them from where?
[10:04] <eternaljoy> billy,  ok ty
[10:04] <anabelle> hey, is there something like a chkdisk to check a cd for defects in ubuntu?
[10:04] <eternaljoy> billy, did you see my pastebin result?
[10:04] <warriorness> What kernel version does the latest LiveCD have?
[10:04] <billy> eternaljoy: yeah.  you have the identical one that i have.
[10:04] <LjL> angela_, those log checking steps are to troubleshoot the slowness, too. actually, they're mostly about that. swap doesn't make things slow -- the kernel missing interrupts, or getting too many, or the hard drive being in the wrong DMA mode... *these* things make systems slow

[10:05] <pengulord> it makes mes so mad
[10:05] <Nullbyte> pengulord: Whats wrong?
[10:05] <EdBoy> oh my god, 1122 people
[10:05] <pengulord> grub wont work
[10:05] <pengulord> ubuntu
[10:05] <anabelle> pengulord: do you know the super grub disk?
[10:05] <pengulord> mepis
[10:05] <eternaljoy> billy, so that website worked for you?
[10:05] <pengulord> idk how to use it
[10:05] <ulisse> I'm having troubles mounting an NFS share, the client says "unable to read superblock". Any hint?
[10:05] <angela_> LjL: i can only discuss this matter after i install kubuntu in a few minutes im rebooting to the install cd, im on ubuntu now
[10:05] <l90bpm> pretty funny..
[10:05] <angela_> and ofc, its faster than kubuntu
[10:05] <billy> eternaljoy: like a charm.
[10:06] <EdBoy> Question: How do I view what graphics card, processor, etc. I have through ubuntu? Or do I have to go back to Windows?
[10:06] <billy> EdBoy: lspci
[10:06] <pengulord> mepis has a thing on the boot disk where it fixes the mbr
[10:06] <l90bpm> another ray of sunshine
[10:06] <eternaljoy> billy, do I type: sudo apt-get install build-essential ncurses-dev ?
[10:06] <EdBoy> (I'm trying to reconfigure the xserver-xorg thing in terminal)
[10:06] <colbert> What's the command to completely remove a program?
[10:06] <EdBoy> billy: uhhhh?
[10:06] <stone123_> EdBoy, lshw
[10:06] <EdBoy> oooh
[10:06] <crdlb> EdBoy, run lspci in a terminal
[10:06] <pengulord> grub can be installed on floppy or what ever partit you want
[10:06] <pengulord> or the mbr
[10:06] <DanGreen> hi, i have just install ubuntu today on an old thinkpad T21, problem i am having is only seems to want boot every 2nd or 3rd time
[10:06] <pengulord> AND IT STILL WONT FREAKING WORK
[10:06] <Nullbyte> EdBoy: Go to System-->Administration-->Device Manager
[10:06] <LjL> angela_... everything else being equal, if GNOME is faster for you than KDE, it simply means that it is. if *both* KDE and GNOME are slow (though it's possible that the slowness is more perceivable in KDE, i suppose), then i guess there is a problem
[10:06] <LjL> pengulord, calm down please
[10:07] <pengulord> iv wasted this whole week
[10:07] <billy> eternaljoy: yeah.  just follow those instructions.  be sure not to mix the 1.0.12 stuff with the 1.0.13 stuff, and be sure to adjust the commands for 1.0.12.  it's only a matter of changing one number.
[10:07] <eternaljoy> ok
[10:07] <eternaljoy> brb
[10:07] <shadu> kylequamme: just posted on the ubuntu forum, maybe they can fix it
[10:07] <pengulord> i think xp is rapeing my grub
[10:07] <g3nocide> ok, i have a wireless controller installed, and the device manager shows it as SGE2910BD/37 Wireless PC Control Pad, yet when i try to set controles in zsnes, it jut flies all the way though and sets them all to JOY<gets cut off here>. anyone have this problem or know how to remedy it ???
[10:07] <LjL> pengulord: i'm not sure i can help you, since GRUB has rarely given me problems, but you should still better define "won't work". does it give you an error? just a blank screen? tries to boot, but then Linux fails immediately? what?
[10:08] <anabelle> hey, is there something like a chkdisk to check a cd for defects in ubuntu? //sorry for asking again...
[10:08] <pengulord> error 21

[10:08] <trond> Anyone using azureus in ubuntu?
[10:08] <washbear> are there any interesting GUI file manager alternatives to Nautilus?
[10:08] <trond> It crashes regularly
[10:08] <warriorness> What kernel version does the latest LiveCD have?
[10:08] <crdlb> washbear, you could use thunar from xfce
[10:08] <Nullbyte> trond: I do, whats wrong?

[10:08] <Nullbyte> trond: Oh.
[10:08] <pengulord> uh the latest ubu
[10:08] <davidballerstein> just a quick ? is there a ubuntu higher than 6.10 system and if so were can i find it?
[10:08] <pengulord> idk mepis
[10:08] <Nullbyte> trond: Thats strange, do you get errors?
[10:08] <billy> davidballerstein: 7.04 is almost in beta.
[10:08] <trond> Nullbyte: It crashes regularly, for no apparant reason
[10:08] <warriorness> billy:Okay, and which cd is that - Feisty? Edgy?
[10:08] <octoberdan> When I try to load xorg, it fails when trying to load modules. Two of the modules it can't find (fglrx and speedo) and the third it fails loading GLcore "(loader failed, 7)"
[10:08] <pengulord> should i go a older ubu thats better supported
[10:09] <trond> I'll try to launch it in a terminal to see whether I get som
[10:09] <trond> e
[10:09] <davidballerstein> ok
[10:09] <billy> warriorness: Feisty.
[10:09] <g3nocide> ok, i have a wireless controller installed, and the device manager shows it as SGE2910BD/37 Wireless PC Control Pad, yet when i try to set controles in zsnes, it jut flies all the way though and sets them all to JOY<gets cut off here>. anyone have this problem or know how to remedy it ???
[10:09] <washbear> crdblo - ahh, thunar, heard of this - will be in feisty or something?
[10:09] <warriorness> billy: okay, thanks
[10:09] <octoberdan> It also fails loading libGLcore.so, which exists where it's trying to load it
[10:09] <angela_> LjL: ubuntu feels somewhat faster, i think its running at a normal speed , but on kubuntu im sure i dont like how responsive it is.. but then again, i really like the kubuntu-desktop more than the ubuntu desktop and i will get back to it .. and see how it works..  now i just found a bug with gedit in ubuntu and it annoys me..
[10:09] <octoberdan> What should I do? X is down so I can't google.

[10:12] <Seveas> stone123_, ?
[10:12] <angela_> what is wrong with gedit, it doesnt remember my font settings when i start it again
[10:13] <angela_> and it has those ugly big fonts again
[10:13] <billy> eternaljoy:  the sound just dies for not explicable reason?
[10:13] <l90bpm> rara archiver is in synaptic
[10:13] <stone123_> Seveas, its ok Guest321 was the problem
[10:13] <Seveas> ompaul, faster than the speed of sound
[10:13] <mrpoundsign> eternaljoy: someone earlier was talking about a sound problem that had which resolved itself when they booted into windows, then rebooted into ubuntu.  windering if that may be the case for you.
[10:13] <billy> eternaljoy: oh.  you're running Feisty.  Could be anything.
[10:13] <fivemack> is kill -9'ing a GDM process which is taking all my CPU likely to cause everything to go splunk spectacularly?
[10:13] <ompaul> Seveas, I have some uses :) we are working on the list
[10:13] <billy> eternaljoy: may be a bug in Feisty.  give it time (the 19th) and see if everything is squared away by then.
[10:14] <eternaljoy> billy, never!  the sound works great therought the wholw day edgy is running.  Its just that no sound happens when I first turn on my PC in the morning, and I ghave to reboot 3-5 times to get sound workoing
[10:14] <zhuy> hi, all
[10:14] <bur[n] er> fivemack, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart would probably be better... that restarts x
[10:14] <billy> eternaljoy: I don't know.  Since Feisty is still in alpha, it may be anything.
[10:14] <eternaljoy> mrpoundsign, sometimes sound works, sometimes not.  at times I have to reboot Edgy 3 times to get sound working.  Odd indeed
[10:14] <hcassidy> where i find fwbuilder 2.10 package for ubuntu?
[10:14] <eternaljoy> billy, im using Edgy
[10:14] <pengulord> what hte easist way to fix this

[10:14] <efface> I spoke with Cypherus yesterday and he helped me get my mic working.  Problem is now that the mic plays out the speakers without and program, so i can rub my finger on the mic and hear it.  In turn when i talk to people they can hear all system sounds even if the speakers are turned off.  Anyone have any ideas?
[10:15] <eternaljoy> billy,  I never said I use feisty
[10:15] <g3nocide> ok, i have a wireless controller installed, and the device manager shows it as SGE2910BD/37 Wireless PC Control Pad, yet when i try to set controles in zsnes, it jut flies all the way though and sets them all to JOY<gets cut off here>. anyone have this problem or know how to remedy it ???
[10:15] <bur[n] er> stone123_, so it should take > 1%? ;)
[10:15] <josef666> who highlighted me?
[10:15] <billy> eternaljoy: oh.  sorry.   try following the instructions on that link anyway.  it'll probably help.  it's been updated, too, so just follow them verbatim, i.e. copy/paste them into a terminal.
[10:15] <bur[n] er> efface, mute it?
[10:15] <eternaljoy> billy, im worried that link may make sound totally stop working for good

[10:23] <PirateHead> TheVault: what do you mean by an expose problem?
[10:23] <matej> how can i see which users are loged in system? (3) ?
[10:23] <fivemack> how do I find the uuid of /dev/md0 for putting in /etc/fstab?
[10:23] <TheVault> PirateHead: Program
[10:23] <nevermind> matej: try who
[10:23] <nevermind> "who"
[10:23] <nevermind> from a shell
[10:23] <efface> how do i prevent esd from loading on boot?
[10:24] <matej> nevermind, who shows me only 2..when i type in uptime it shows me 3?
[10:24] <TheVault> jrib: Skippy huh, sounds sweet. Also, is there any other programs that has some of the functions as beryl but for slower pcs?
[10:24] <LjL> PirateHead, i'm serious, i'm unwilling to talk about this. it's just not the right channel.
[10:24] <BryanJK_> I have a corrupt partition that ubuntu wont recognize, but windows can... what would you guys reccomend to extract files from it?
[10:24] <bigjohnto> anyone know how to check the creation date of a tape? (tape goes into tape drive)!
[10:24] <nevermind> matej, try sudo who
[10:24] <jrib> TheVault: hmm, not that I know of
[10:24] <billy> eternaljoy: where'd you go?
[10:24] <TheVault> jrib: Alrighty, well I'm going to give skippy a try
[10:24] <matej> nevermind, the same
[10:24] <eternaljoy> billy: im waiting for you
[10:25] <eternaljoy> billy,  did you get my PM?
[10:25] <jrib> TheVault: what kind of system are we talking about?
[10:25] <nevermind> matej, well, works here
[10:25] <matej> weird
[10:25] <nevermind> maybe theres only you logged in two times, but you got a terminal open
[10:25] <eternaljoy> billy: im not getting any text from you in PM!  can you pls come to #billy
[10:25] <Al2O3> any parallels osx folsk here using ubuntu also?
[10:25] <oblio> thanks, bye all !
[10:25] <TheVault> jrib: I have a Pentium 3 processor @ 993MHZ, 256mb Of Ram, 20GIG HD and I believe Intel Integrated GFX Card but i'm not sure the memory size
[10:25] <matej> nevermind, maybe :)
[10:26] <Al2O3> I'm curious if I can use the dvd image to mount and then install from, instead of burning the dvd image to a dvd.
[10:26] <billy> eternaljoy: I'm not sure what's going on.  let's just go through it in the room here.
[10:26] <jrib> TheVault: I see, that's not too bad.  Guess it really depends on the card on how well something like beryl or compiz would run
[10:26] <nevermind> you see any "pts" on there
[10:26] <TheVault> jrib: Any idea on how I can find out much memory my GFX Card has? Like a command or something?
[10:27] <eternaljoy> billy: ok
[10:27] <jrib> TheVault: lshw  but at least on my laptop, it lies.  Best way is probably to look it up
[10:27] <eternaljoy> billy: whats first?
[10:27] <efface> how do i prevent esd from loading on boot?
[10:27] <billy> eternaljoy: installed the build-essentials and ncurses yet?
[10:27] <TheVault> jrib: lemme see if it works on my computer
[10:27] <nevermind> efface, lookup for the /etc/init.d script that starts it
[10:28] <nevermind> then chmod 000 that script
[10:28] <m_> ok did a recent upgrade BREAK systems?
[10:28] <Huffalump> Nullbyte - just a follow up, I was distracted.  Thanks a lot for the hand-holding... I'm off and running!
[10:28] <nevermind> well, i guess there are more debianish ways to do it, but that one does work
[10:28] <Jowi> efface, turn it off in gnome-sound-properties ("Sounds" tab)
[10:28] <Nullbyte> Huffalump: Thats great, have fun!
[10:28] <TheVault> jrib: Says 64mb, I'm not sure if thats right though
[10:28] <eternaljoy> billy: ok done
[10:28] <billy> eternaljoy: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
[10:29] <TheVault> jrib: gimme a sec while I try to install skippy :)
[10:29] <efface> Jowi, its not turned on in there and its still loading
[10:29] <eternaljoy> billy:  ok brb
[10:29] <eternaljoy> billy: it said: linux-headers-2.6.17-11-generic is already the newest version.
[10:29] <eternaljoy> billy:  that command didn t do anything
[10:30] <billy> eternaljoy:  that's fine.  now `mkdir ~/installers
[10:30] <ulisse> i sthere any known issue with NetworkManager and NFS so I cannot mount a remote fs?
[10:30] <Jowi> efface, check in the "Devices" tab if esd is selected. if not, have a look in gnome-session-properties
[10:30] <lasse> where to find 6.10 torrents? the new page design, wont let me find any torrents
[10:30] <billy> eternaljoy: minus the tick of course.
[10:30] <eternaljoy> billy: so now I type mkdir ~/installers  ?
[10:30] <billy> eternaljoy: yes.  then `cd installers`.
[10:30] <eternaljoy> billy:  type that from anywhere?
[10:30] <jrib> lasse: releases.ubuntu.com
[10:30] <Jowi> efface, after you made sure it is not in any of those places - open a terminal and type "killall esd"
[10:31] <Jowi> efface, that will take care of it :)
[10:31] <lasse> thanks
[10:31] <s0nix> Hi,
[10:31] <billy> eternaljoy: you should be in /home/yourname, but it ought not matter.
[10:31] <s0nix> i just configured my dual screen with ATI fglrx driver. all work.......... but anyone know why i don't have image for my videos on (only) my screen 2. ?vvv
[10:31] <evgeniy_> hi
[10:31] <evgeniy_> wtf is this anyways
[10:31] <acoward> what's a simple ftpd good for sharing files over a lan every once in a while?
[10:31] <jrib> evgeniy_: read /topic .  It's an Ubuntu support channel :)
[10:31] <eternaljoy> billy: ok I typed cd installers
[10:32] <billy> eternaljoy:  give me the ouput of `pwd`.
[10:32] <nevermind> acoward: it really depends, i like vsftpd
[10:32] <nevermind> acoward: but for lan, why not use samba?
[10:32] <eternaljoy> billy: /home/ejoy/installers
[10:32] <s0nix> plz someone :)
[10:32] <billy> eternaljoy: great.  now `mkdir alsa`.
[10:32] <FLSimpsonKPT> how would i go about installing wine or a microsoft windows program emulator??
[10:32] <FLSimpsonKPT> <-linux n00b
[10:33] <eternaljoy> billy: done
[10:33] <billy> FLSimpsonKPT: sudo apt-get install wine
[10:33] <jrib> !wine > FLSimpsonKPT    (FLSimpsonKPT, see the private message from ubotu)
[10:33] <efface> Jowi, yea ive been manually killing it, trying to track down whats booting it.  since you see to know what your talking about, what folder is alsa stored in>?
[10:33] <CShadowRun> [FLSimpsonKPT-> theres a tutorial on www.winehq.com :)
[10:33] <nevermind> FLSimpsonKPT: its in the software list, just check the checkbox besides it
[10:33] <eternaljoy> billy: now?
[10:33] <acoward> nevermind: vsftpd seems to complicated... I want it to start when i tell it to start instead of running as a service
[10:33] <FLSimpsonKPT> gah! which one is right?? lol
[10:33] <billy> eternaljoy: download this file to /home/ejoy/installers/alsa :  http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa/ftp/driver/alsa-driver-1.0.14rc3.tar.bz2
[10:33] <efface> nm i found it /etc/init.d
[10:34] <eternaljoy> billy: i thoutht latest is 1.0.3 ?
[10:34] <nevermind> acoward: theres no ./ftpd that i know of, but whats so hard with /etc/init.d/vsftpd start?
[10:34] <Jowi> efface, esd is not set up to load at boot time. it is loaded when gnome starts.
[10:34] <eternaljoy> billy: i thoutht latest is 1.0.13 ?
[10:34] <crimsun> eternaljoy: the latest stable is, yes.
[10:34] <billy> eternaljoy: download this file to /home/ejoy/installers/alsa :  wait, use this one.  it's the latest.  http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa/ftp/driver/alsa-driver-1.0.14rc2.tar.bz2
[10:34] <eternaljoy> crimsun: is 1.0.14rc3.tar.bz2 ok?
[10:34] <eternaljoy> billy: ok brb
[10:34] <crimsun> eternaljoy: yes, but it's actually too old
[10:34] <ryan_> hello?
[10:35] <ryan_> I have a wee bit of trouble
[10:35] <ryan_> see, I want two x servers
[10:35] <crimsun> eternaljoy: we've committed many fixes in addition to rc3
[10:35] <ryan_> but 'startx --:1' doesn't work
[10:35] <eternaljoy> crimsun: ok
[10:35] <ryan_> (it tries to use display 0).
[10:35] <fabiano> i got a live cd with 6.06 versio ,how i do the upgrade?
[10:35] <ryan_> what's wrong with it?
[10:35] <jrib> ryan_: you need a space after --
[10:35] <ryan_> ahh
[10:35] <ryan_> thanks
[10:35] <billy> !upgrade | fabiano
[10:35] <ubotu> fabiano: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[10:35] <nevermind> fabiano: you want to upgrade a livecd?
[10:35] <fabiano> yes
[10:36] <nevermind> fabiano: or do you got the livecd installed on hd and want to upgrade that?
[10:36] <fabiano> yes
[10:36] <fabiano> I have a live cd
[10:36] <eternaljoy> billy: where is the alsa folder we created?  / ?
[10:36] <nevermind> fabiano: sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:36] <billy> eternaljoy: /home/ejoy/installers/alsa
[10:36] <nevermind> fabiano: add the new apt sources there (find em on wiki for example)
[10:36] <acoward> nevermind: mainly that i've never done anything with services and it seems scary to me... how do i get it to not start up when I start my comp?
[10:36] <TheVault> I'm in the Terminal editing a Makefile for skippy, how do I save the changes & exit?
[10:36] <nevermind> fabiano: then apt-get -f update && apt-get -f dist-upgrade
[10:37] <eternaljoy> billy: ok done!  copied it to alsa
[10:37] <TheVault> Iv never done this before
[10:37] <Huffalump> How do I mount a "W95 Ext'd"  hda?  (I could swear in Windows, it's NTFS but in any event Linux says it's W95 Ext'd)
[10:37] <nevermind> that should do the trick
[10:37] <eternaljoy> billy:  next? :)
[10:37] <nevermind> acoward: simpe, just disable the service either via services tab in your gnome, or chmod 000 the service starter in /etc/init.d
[10:37] <jrib> TheVault: skippy is in the repositories
[10:37] <TheVault> oh
[10:37] <TheVault> jrib: Thnx
[10:37] <billy> eternaljoy: copy this one to the same location : http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa/ftp/lib/alsa-lib-1.0.14rc2.tar.bz2
[10:37] <fabiano> but nothing is happing
[10:37] <nevermind> in case the service starts from inetd or xinetd comment out the lines that start the service and restart the superserver
[10:38] <TheVault> jrib: But for future use, how do I edit a file in terminal and then save and exit when done?
[10:38] <jrib> TheVault: what editor are you using?
[10:38] <eternaljoy> billy: thats the same filename as before
[10:38] <TheVault> jrib: the command was nano Makefile in the terminal
[10:38] <eternaljoy> billy: no  my mostalke
[10:38] <TheVault> jrib: Then it shows I can edit, but how do I save & exit when I'm done?
[10:38] <jrib> TheVault: ctrl-o to save or "write Out" and ctrl-x to "eXit"
[10:38] <billy> eternaljoy: just a touch different.  :)
[10:38] <eternaljoy> billy: ok done! both files are now in als
[10:39] <TheVault> jrib: Thnx...this will prove handy in future use
[10:39] <eternaljoy> billy: yep. ok done :)
[10:39] <billy> eternaljoy: here's the last one.  http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa/ftp/utils/alsa-utils-1.0.14rc2.tar.bz2
[10:39] <Huffalump>  I understand it's "sudo mount -t {whatgoeshere?} /dev/hdaX /mnt/mystuff"  but what's the missing piece for W95 Ext'd ?
[10:39] <TheVault> jrib: Yay it worked, Thnx
[10:39] <mirra> can squirrelmail/postfix/courier-imap, handle sending out email to a large list of recepients?
[10:39] <mirra> or do I need something else like mailman?
[10:39] <eternaljoy> billy: ok 3 files are now in alsa
[10:40] <acoward> i'll use a gui ftp server and make my way to vsftp later
[10:40] <tuxligo> hi!
[10:40] <billy> eternaljoy: excellent.  now `sudo mkdir -p /usr/src/alsa`
[10:40] <nevermind> acoward: your choice, just never heard of gui ftpd
[10:40] <nevermind> )
[10:40] <eternaljoy> billy: do I type sudo mkdir -p /usr/src/alsa from wihin the alsa folder?
[10:40] <nevermind> which doesnt mean its eventually a good solution
[10:40] <billy> eternaljoy: yeah.  it'll be fine.
[10:40] <nevermind> after all, with gnu you have the choice)
[10:40] <eternaljoy> billy: done
[10:41] <tuxligo> KDE or Gnome?!
[10:41] <billy> eternaljoy: cd /usr/src/alsa
[10:41] <fabiano> i have a live cd,how I upgrade ?
[10:41] <billy> !upgrade | fabiano
[10:41] <ubotu> fabiano: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[10:41] <nevermind> btw, gotta say, ubuntu for ppls who are switching from deb is like, a drug to say the least
[10:41] <eternaljoy> billy: done
[10:41] <nevermind> one damn of a great system you have there
[10:41] <billy> eternaljoy: sudo cp ~/installers/alsa/* .
[10:41] <eternaljoy> billy: with the . on the end?
[10:42] <nevermind> im three days in it and still amazed by the usability
[10:42] <billy> eternaljoy: yes.  from what I understand, it's equivalent to saying "here" in computer language.
[10:42] <eternaljoy> billy: ok done. all 3 files copies
[10:42] <billy> eternaljoy: sudo tar xjf alsa-driver-1.0.14rc2.tar.bz2
[10:43] <eternaljoy> billy: done
[10:43] <billy> eternaljoy: sudo tar xjf alsa-lib-1.0.14rc2.tar.bz2
[10:43] <Huffalump> Nullbyte, are you still around?  I'm looking for a little help mounting a "W95 Ext'd" drive (now that my ntfs drives mounted so easily).
[10:43] <TheVault> jrib: Aww sweet, I love skippy
[10:43] <eternaljoy> billy: done also
[10:43] <billy> eternaljoy: sudo tar xjf alsa-utils-1.0.14rc1.tar.bz2
[10:44] <TheVault> jrib: Anyway to fix the delay. There is like a 4 sec delay when I press the button I assigned
[10:44] <nevermind> Huffalump: try -t vfat
[10:44] <nevermind> not sure
[10:44] <joe4444> how can i create a screencast?
[10:44] <nevermind> havent used fat32 partitions in a long time
[10:44] <jrib> TheVault: not that I know of, I had to give up on it because of that
[10:44] <eternaljoy> billy: that last one said: tar: alsa-utils-1.0.14rc1.tar.bz2: Cannot open: No such file or directory. tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
[10:44] <TheVault> jrib: I'll tinker with the config file and see what I come up with
[10:44] <jrib> joe4444: applications > accessories > take screen shot    or press your PrintScreen button on your keyboard
[10:44] <IndyGunFreak> whats a good site to test the MPlayer plugin for Firefox?
[10:44] <nevermind> joe4444: there is a tool avail for it from the software installer
[10:44] <eternaljoy> billy: tar: Child returned status 2., tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
[10:44] <billy> eternaljoy: oops.  sudo tar xjf alsa-utils-1.0.14rc2.tar.bz2
[10:45] <nevermind> joe4444: cannot remember its name atm, just look in media
[10:45] <eternaljoy> billy: ok done :)
[10:45] <Led-Hed> I've installed Apache2 and the Suexec module.  How can I find out what the suexec-uidmin value was set for?
[10:45] <jrib> joe4444: oh you said "screen*cast*", ignore me then
[10:45] <billy> eternaljoy: cd alsa-driver-1.0.14rc2
[10:45] <joe4444> yeah
[10:45] <joe4444> video =)
[10:45] <Huffalump> nevermind, thanks for the suggestion.  Apparently that's not the right key/option.  (Actually, I was sure it was an NTFS drive, despite what fdisk says)
[10:45] <jrib> IndyGunFreak: visit the mplayer plugin site, they have links to a bunch of test sites
[10:45] <Jowi> efface, you got it to work? if not I have another idea
[10:45] <nevermind> Huffalump: what does fdisk -l says
[10:45] <eternaljoy> billy: okl done
[10:45] <billy> eternaljoy: sudo ./configure --with-cards=hda-intel
[10:45] <nevermind> sudo fdisk -l that would be
[10:46] <Huffalump> nevermind, it says W95 Ext'd
[10:46] <joe4444> nevermind, istanbul?
[10:46] <eternaljoy> billy:  done
[10:46] <nevermind> Huffalump: a broke ntfs or maybe an extended part that holds an ntfs drive?
[10:46] <billy> eternaljoy: make
[10:46] <Huffalump> nevermind, it's a single physical drive with only one partition.  I guess I could be insane =]
[10:46] <eternaljoy> billy: permission deied; make: *** [include/sound/version.h]  Error 1
[10:46] <jrib> joe4444: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CreatingScreencasts
[10:46] <billy> eternaljoy: sudo make
[10:47] <eternaljoy> ok
[10:47] <anabelle> hey, is there something like a chkdisk to check a cd for defects in ubuntu?
[10:47] <nevermind> Huffalump: good q, indeed, i guess its time for trying for you, try all the fs types there are "man mount"
[10:47] <eternaljoy> billy:  ALSA modules were successfully compiled.
[10:47] <l90bpm> screencast..  WOW!
[10:47] <billy> eternaljoy: sudo make install
[10:48] <l90bpm> wasn't even 4 me..  but I thank you anyway
[10:48] <nevermind> Huffalump: i dunno if you may fsck a win partition from linux, never did that, maybe someone knows
[10:48] <_Freedom0_> hi
[10:48] <joe4444> thanks jrib
[10:48] <nevermind> Huffalump: if everything fails, might do an image with dd and try to mount that
[10:48] <eternaljoy> billy: WARNING!!! The mixer channels for the ALSA driver are muted by default!!!
[10:48] <crimsun> billy: no. Please use sudo make install-modules, else you clobber the infrastructure.
[10:48] <eternaljoy> billy: done
[10:48] <Huffalump> nevermind, I'll poke around the man a bit ....and if all else fails, I'll boot into Windows
[10:48] <billy> eternaljoy: that's fine.  cd ../alsa-lib-1.0.14rc2
[10:48] <FITorio1> OK guys I found raid help... but it's not complete and I made a mistake... so now I need to start over
[10:48] <eternaljoy> crimsun: ahh :(  is it too late folr me now?
[10:48] <nevermind> Huffalump: hehe, of course, if you still got that installed)
[10:49] <FITorio1> how do you destroy an array
[10:49] <Huffalump> "man mount" hehe
[10:49] <crimsun> eternaljoy: eh, yes, but your computer won't explode
[10:49] <eternaljoy> crimsun: I typed: sudo make install.  what can I do now?

[10:49] <cafuego_> aeroplane: Yes, it will.
[10:50] <l90bpm> might get lucky, might not
[10:50] <crimsun> eternaljoy: no, you've already done what that target accomplishes
[10:50] <cafuego_> aeroplane: That's why Ubuntu releases a month after each gnome release.
[10:50] <anabelle> hey, is there something like a chkdisk to check a cd for defects in ubuntu? i need to check a WinXP CD before formatting.... please help.

[10:53] <TheVault> jrib: What about wobbly windows, can I get that but not install Beryl or Compiz?
[10:53] <eternaljoy> billy: ok

[10:53] <jrib> TheVault: nope, I don't think so
[10:54] <nevermind> cs02rm0: or how they call it.... router with firewall, or wan router...
[10:54] <eternaljoy> billy: ok
[10:54] <TheVault> jrib: Hmmm, well I hope they do, I like how Skippy is a single program
[10:54] <billy> eternaljoy: sudo make install
[10:54] <Huffalump> nevermind, according to UbuntuForums, one cannot mount an extended drive
[10:54] <eternaljoy> billy: shoild I make that sudo make install-modules as crimsun said?
[10:54] <TheVault> jrib: What about the fade your windows effect, do they have that single or is that a no to lol
[10:54] <nevermind> Huffalump: extended isnt actually a fs, thats why i was asking for an fs inside
[10:54] <tc75> hi, printing landscape mode doesnt work for me in sodipodi... what should i look into? where's that "lpr gui" thing coming from? i've noticed it elsewhere...

[10:55] <cs02rm0> it's just a wireless wired bridge router
[10:55] <Huffalump> nevermind, I'm an idiot
[10:55] <eternaljoy> billy: ?
[10:55] <billy> eternaljoy: crimsun is probably more knowledgable than I am.  but this worked fine for me.  not sure about mixing the command at this poitn.
[10:55] <Huffalump> nevermine, I just had an epiphany and I get it now
[10:55] <Huffalump> nevermind, solved!
[10:55] <fabiano> how i upgrade from a live cd?
[10:55] <cs02rm0> i think the network connection's gone down on .49
[10:55] <eternaljoy> crimsun: shold I do the other 2 as sudo make install-modules ?
[10:55] <Slart> anabelle: there is a command "readcd" that can check for errors
[10:55] <nevermind> cs02rm0: eventually broken nic?
[10:55] <Sayers> Updrading to Feisty right now
[10:55] <jrib> TheVault: I've done it in fluxbox using http://fluxbox-wiki.org/index.php/Transparency
[10:55] <misiek> siema
[10:55] <eternaljoy> crimsun: even though i didnt do the first one sudo make install-modules?
[10:55] <Huffalump> nevermind, the problem was that I'm stupid and I should have been mounting /dev/hdb (not hda)
[10:55] <misiek> jest tu polak :D
[10:55] <crimsun> eternaljoy: it's only applicable to alsa-driver.
[10:55] <anabelle> should i just type readcd? Slart ?
[10:55] <nevermind> cs02rm0: most common reason for most network probs under gnu is a broken network card
[10:55] <TheVault> jrib: Sweet, may give that try

[11:10] <anabelle> i use kubuntu... do i have nautilus?
[11:10] <erichj> anabelle: no
[11:10] <lugod> hi. can upstart be safely reimstalled from edgy and replaced with sysvinit? I'm trying to run getty to answer modems
[11:10] <Nullbyte> anabelle, you have konqueror
[11:10] <Slart> anabelle: ok.. whatever the file manager is called in kde then =)
[11:10] <jrib> anabelle: no.  You can install it if you want to, but default is konqueror in kubuntu
[11:10] <eternaljoy> billy: it only has 1 option; says Realtec ALC660 (OSS mixer)
[11:10] <lugod> i meant 'deinstalled' :)
[11:11] <anabelle> yes i can acces it....
[11:11] <Slart> anabelle: try that command again.. the mount one
[11:11] <eternaljoy> billy: and now the volume controls is misbehaving.  it jumps up and down when I try to move it
[11:11] <nevermind> lugod: sounds like a nice task, i dunno if anyone ever tried that, i would go with a virtual image first and try it there

[11:11] <eternaljoy> billy: has this problem got anything to do with what crimsun said?
[11:11] <Slart> anabelle: strange.. hang on... I have to check sometihng
[11:12] <nevermind> sluimers: if you remember what you deinstalled, try to reinstall it
[11:12] <lugod> nevermind: ok
[11:12] <sluimers> I don't remember
[11:12] <nevermind> sluimers: without more info its gonna be hard to say
[11:12] <billy> eternaljoy: maybe.  worked fine for me though.
[11:12] <goodkiwiboy> Anyone here know anything about bluetooth and cellphones? just trying my luck
[11:12] <nevermind> sluimers: well, a logic conclusion would be, that you deinstalled your sound daemon, or your audio mixer somehow
[11:12] <Jowi> sluimers, best bet... "sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop" if you use gnome... that will get you the default apps back at least.
[11:12] <zach89909> I configured PXE, DHCP, and Tftp and I still can't boot PXE.  I need help with this.

[11:13] <tomas_> Does anyone know if there is any ubuntu packages for a mencoder gui? I used kmenc15 and some other gtk gui in the past, but i cannot find a single package that works on edgy :(
[11:13] <eternaljoy> billy: at least before I had sound when I rebooted a few times.  And I asked you if this can make it totally stop working all togetjer, and I trusted you as you said THAT WONT HAPPEN :(
[11:13] <nevermind> sluimers: id really advice you to do install/remove as soon as youre set for it, or play with it in a virtual machine
[11:13] <bmayolg> view
[11:13] <tomas_> Or if anyone know of some other decent video encoder
[11:13] <eternaljoy> billy: now I cant get sound at all :(

[11:15] <crimsun> eternaljoy: I'm in a phone conference. What do you need?
[11:15] <Slart> lugod: except.. it didn't work =/
[11:15] <anabelle> hda: SONY DVD RW DW-Q30A, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive
[11:15] <nevermind> lugod: hard to say for me, eventually on ubuntu forums has tried that before
[11:15] <anabelle> [17179575.380000]  hda: ATAPI 48X DVD-ROM DVD-R CD-R/RW drive, 2048kB Cache, UDMA(66)
[11:15] <eternaljoy> crimsun: i followed all steps by billy but no sound.  has that got to do with that you said earlier?
[11:15] <paLindr0me> !modem install
[11:15] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about modem install - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:15] <paLindr0me> hm
[11:15] <bakert> I have installed cupsys* but how do I set up the printer itself?
[11:15] <Slart> lugod.. nevermind..
[11:15] <paLindr0me> how du i install modem ?
[11:15] <Desmaano> ok a question, ubuntu doenst seem to see my harddisks correctly, #1 it cant 'see' its size and #2 ubuntu thinks its a floppydisk, someone ideas??
[11:15] <paLindr0me> *doo
[11:15] <bakert> !printer
[11:16] <ubotu> Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows
[11:16] <anabelle> hda?
[11:16] <eternaljoy> crimsun: what can I do now? :(
[11:16] <Slart> anabelle: ok.. the device name is /dev/hda
[11:16] <paLindr0me> i need some help :D
[11:16] <lugod> Slart: trry this then: dmesg | egrep -A 10 -B 10 -i 'CD|DVD'
[11:16] <ridge> bye
[11:16] <anabelle> and now cdread /dev/hda?
[11:16] <Jowi> paLindr0me, what type of modem? dial-up or dsl?
[11:16] <paLindr0me> dial
[11:16] <nevermind> lugod: on the other hand, if its just a server with one fax server on it,and not much extra things, chroot a deb install inside your ubuntu
[11:16] <lugod> Slart: it will not show anything if the driver is not loaded!
[11:16] <tomas_> Does anyone know if there is any ubuntu packages for a mencoder gui? I used kmenc15 and some other gtk gui in the past, but i cannot find a single package that works on edgy :(
[11:17] <sluimers> Well I deinstalled nvidia-glx, but not after installing deinstalling lots of programs, hoping that would fix  X windows as that stopped working
[11:17] <eternaljoy> crimsun: and when I type alsamixer it now says: alsamixer: function snd_mixer_load failed: Invalid argument
[11:17] <lugod> nevermind: good idea, that might be the easiest thing
[11:17] <bakert> Does anyone know how to install a printer with no X?
[11:17] <lugod> Slart: find out with: lsmod | grep -i cd
[11:18] <Slart> anabelle: try readcd dev=/dev/hda -c2scan
[11:18] <lugod> bakert: do you have another machine with X that you can use to connect to your Xless server via ssh?
[11:18] <sluimers> All I remember is that one of them was mikmod, but reinstalled that one again
[11:18] <P-K> I am trying to add more localed to my system. When I try and do a dpkg-reconfigure locales. It just genrates the previous selected locales and doesnt bring up the screen to let me choose.
[11:18] <nevermind> bakert: look if you have the lp module loaded, install cups, configure cups through its web interface...
[11:18] <bakert> lugod, yes
[11:18] <zach89909> I configured PXE, DHCP, and Tftp. My other co,puter won't boot from it.  Will someone please help me?
[11:18] <tomas_> bleh.. asked three times and not a single reply to my question :(
[11:18] <Desmaano> can someone take a look at my ubuntu that doesnt 'see' my harddisks right ??
[11:18] <frede> hi, i have a problem with mounting a ntfs partiton. i resized the partition prior to installing ubuntu. i installed ntfs-3g, but i have to "force" the mount because otherwise it tells me the partiton has to be checked and that i should run windows twice - problem i don't have windows anymore... anyone knows a fix?
[11:18] <P-K> Is there another way of doing this in ubuntu?
[11:18] <Jowi> paLindr0me, if you can't configure it if you use "network-admin" it's a bit tricky. best to have a look here as the modems are all quite different: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto
[11:18] <eternaljoy> billy: when I ran sudo alsaconf, it didnt run any mixer or volume control
[11:18] <lugod> bakert: then you can ssh in with -X (forward X) and run the GUI program to set up the printer that way
[11:19] <Slart> lugod: hmm.. it still doesn't find my dvd drive.. odd
[11:19] <lugod> bakert: alternately you can use foomatic via command line
[11:19] <paLindr0me> Thanks Jowi :D
[11:19] <bakert> nevermind, lugod thanks will try one or both of those.  thanks!
[11:19] <lugod> Slart: try: sudo modprobe cdrom
[11:19] <anabelle> its working :D
[11:19] <billy> eternaljoy: not sure why alsaconf is returning an error.  those wiki instructions have worked well for myself and others.  i'm looking into the error now.  please be patient.
[11:19] <tomas_> Does anyone know if there is any ubuntu packages for a mencoder gui? I used kmenc15 and some other gtk gui in the past, but i cannot find a single package that works on edgy :(
[11:19] <Slart> anabelle: finally =)
[11:19] <tomas_> Am i really the only one who encodes videos?
[11:20] <nevermind> tomas_: apt-cache search mencoder
[11:20] <mikewdhd> Guys: I have an Intel 2000 BG Wirless mini-PCI in a laptop. My router runs WPA. Will this card be detected automatically and installed when I install Edgy? Will WPA work or will I need to do other stuff. :-)
[11:20] <tomas_> nevermind, i find no gui..
[11:20] <nevermind> tomas_: not sure, never used a gui for that
[11:20] <tomas_> i have tried that already
[11:20] <eternaljoy> billy: when I ran sudo alsaconf, it didnt run any mixer or volume control,  but it didnt give an error; it only says: Now ALSA is ready to use.
[11:20] <eternaljoy>  For adjustment of volumes, use your favorite mixer.
[11:20] <eternaljoy>  Have a lot of fun!
[11:20] <Slart> lugod: does it make a difference that I'm using a usb-connected DVD drive?
[11:20] <lugod> bakert: example foomatic usage: sudo foomatic-configure -n lp -N 'my printer ps driver' -L office  -c 'lpd://printerhostname/lp'  -p Generic-PostScript_Printer -d Postscript -o PrintoutMode=High -s lprng
[11:20] <tomas_> and i really need a gui, since i need to cut away tv logo and such
[11:20] <Swany> hello i'm wondering if anyone has some time to help me... i had the 64bit version of desktop installed then updated to the latest build via the update program and now i my pc wont boot and am getting the busybox v1.1.3 error /bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off
[11:20] <anabelle> well i see the led on my cd lit.. but no putput on the konsole, i will just wait
[11:20] <tomas_> nevermind, thanks for responding atleast.. :)
[11:21] <billy> eternaljoy: i meant `alsamixer`.
[11:21] <lugod> bakert: adjust appropriately if you are not using lprng and a postscript ethernet printer like me :)
[11:21] <lugod> Slart: yes
[11:21] <eternaljoy> billy: and why does the volume control now jumps up and down when I try to move it?
[11:21] <Slart> anabelle: there are some other options for readcd.. there is, as always, a manual  "man readcd"
[11:21] <tomas_> i used a gui for gnome that really worked fine, but there seems to no longer be any package for ubuntu
[11:21] <nevermind> tomas_: you need a video editor actually and not a gui to mencoder, if i got that right
[11:21] <nevermind> tomas_: try kino
[11:21] <eternaljoy> billy: yeah it says: alsamixer: function snd_mixer_load failed: Invalid argument
[11:21] <lugod> Slart: you need more drivers; probably lots of usb stuff
[11:21] <eternaljoy> billy: something went wrong
[11:21] <bakert> lugod, thanks
[11:21] <eternaljoy> billy: shall I try to reboot?
[11:22] <lugod> Slart: 'cdrom' module is just for IDE drives
[11:22] <tomas_> nevermind, basically what i need is a program to encode mpeg2 into mpeg4 like xvid or similar. I also need to cut away the top and bottom of the picture
[11:22] <billy> eternaljoy:  you're sure there's no alternative in the dropdown box in the preferences of the volume manager?
[11:22] <Slart> lugod: ah.. that explains it.. thanks
[11:22] <eternaljoy> billy: how can I get it back to the way it was?  at last sound worked when I rebooted a fw times
[11:22] <nevermind> tomas_: acidrip
[11:22] <Slart> anabelle: still no output?
[11:22] <daedra> alsamixer
[11:22] <lugod> Slart: usb cd drives will have names like /dev/scd0
[11:22] <daedra> arrrr
[11:22] <lugod> Slart: not /dev/hdc
[11:22] <tomas_> nevermind, dosent that only support dvds?
[11:22] <Jowi> tomas_, you have tons to chose from. have a look under "MEncoder Frontends" here: http://www.mplayerhq.hu/design7/projects.html
[11:22] <eternaljoy> billy: it only has 1 option; says Realtec ALC660 (OSS mixer)!  NO other option
[11:22] <nevermind> tomas_: not sure, never tried without dvds
[11:22] <tomas_> nevermind, i looked around in it and found no way to open a mpeg2 file
[11:22] <Jowi> tomas_, only a handful are packaged for ubuntu though.
[11:23] <Slart> lugod: mm.. that's what I have for mine.. just couldn't find a way to get the device name without checking output from mount.. thought there might be a better way
[11:23] <lugod> Slart: not quite sure which modules you need, but they will be related to mass storage
[11:23] <anabelle> no, still waiting
[11:23] <nevermind> tomas_: i remember a package, i think it was dvd:rip
[11:23] <tomas_> Jowi, i tried to compile a few sources.. but no such luck :\
[11:23] <eternaljoy> billy: I right click on sound icon and chose Preferences.  but there is only 1 options there; Realtec ALC660 (OSS mixer)
[11:23] <nevermind> tomas_: though not sure bout the name, its been a while
[11:23] <anabelle> Cd is working nonstop
[11:23] <tomas_> always depends on something
[11:23] <lugod> Slart: aha, you already have the drivers then, good
[11:23] <SeanTater> I set up an sshd server of my computer, upgraded to edgy, and now I cannot access it, is there some type of firewall I need to open?
[11:23] <Slart> lugod: this was just to find the device name to use for "readcd"
[11:24] <nevermind> tomas_: i usually used ^scripts^ for dvd to vcd, svcd, mvcd and xvid, mkv and ogm
[11:24] <Slart> anabelle: well.. mine worked too.. but I got a small summary going.. with a counter and some info on errors and such
[11:24] <Agiofws> how do i downgrade  xorg in ubuntu ?
[11:24] <Agiofws> ?
[11:24] <bigjohnto> anyone ever used ctar command? how can i restore a ctar file
[11:24] <lugod> Slart: for that you can read the files in /sys/bus/usb/devices/*
[11:24] <nevermind> bigjohnto: from the name it creates tar format
[11:24] <eternaljoy> billy: i was worried about this happening. I should have kept it as it was :(
[11:24] <nevermind> bigjohnto: try tar xvfj filename.tar
[11:24] <lugod> Slart: not sure about that actually
[11:25] <bigjohnto> yes but the tar command is not reading it
[11:25] <anabelle> anabelle@gathacol-server:~$ readcd dev=/dev/hda -c2scan
[11:25] <anabelle> Read  speed:  8467 kB/s (CD  48x, DVD  6x).
[11:25] <anabelle> Write speed:  8467 kB/s (CD  48x, DVD  6x).
[11:25] <anabelle>
[11:25] <bigjohnto> its on a tape
[11:25] <anabelle> thats all i got slart
[11:25] <lugod> Slart: probably dmesg | grep is still best
[11:25] <nevermind> bigjohnto: tar xvf even...
[11:25] <Nergar> ubuntu server comes with or without gnome?
[11:25] <eternaljoy> billy: is there any way or returning to how it was?
[11:25] <nevermind> bigjohnto: what does man ctar say?
[11:25] <Slart> anabelle: hmm.. I'll check again.. perhaps I made a typo somewhere
[11:25] <tomas_> pretty much all mencoder gui projects seems to have ceased to exist
[11:25] <tomas_> no activity for the recent years
[11:26] <billy> eternaljoy: go to System > Preferences > Sound.
[11:26] <eternaljoy> billy: im there now
[11:26] <bigjohnto> nothing...
[11:26] <eternaljoy> billy: now?
[11:26] <nevermind> tomas_: and then again, i got a weird hunch, how about using vlc to stream an mpg2 to a stdout and take that stdout through mencoder?
[11:27] <billy> eternaljoy:  in the Sound Playback drop down box, is there an ALSA option?
[11:27] <tomas_> nevermind, the problem is that i need to cut away the logo and such
[11:27] <nevermind> tomas_: well, for the cutting thats where i mentoined kino
[11:27] <eternaljoy> billy: yes ALSA linux achetucuter
[11:27] <cafuego_> ffmpeg is your friend - even though it doesn't gui
[11:27] <cafuego_> (gui slow, bad)
[11:27] <nevermind> tomas_: i could be wrong, but i remember mencoder as "encoder" which isnt exactly a cutter
[11:27] <cafuego_> server without X fast, good
[11:28] <eternaljoy> billy: says ALSA Advanced Linux Sound Acrhitcutre
[11:28] <billy> eternaljoy: select ALSA and click TEST.
[11:28] <eternaljoy> billy:  TEST has no sound at all
[11:28] <yell0w> !xen
[11:28] <ubotu> XEN is a virtual machine monitor for x86 that supports execution of multiple guest operating systems with unprecedented levels of performance and resource isolation. Information on installing it for Ubuntu can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XenOnEdgy
[11:28] <tomas_> cafuego_, heh.. in this case gui does the opposite, since each lets say movie/tvshow need a different crop/cut setting
[11:29] <tomas_> without a gui i would first have to manually find out how much i need to cut the image
[11:29] <eternaljoy> billy: so what happens now? :(
[11:29] <yell0w> !vmware
[11:29] <ubotu> VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player"), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. For VMWare Server, instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers
[11:29] <roland_> can vmware workstation be installed on edgy ?
[11:29] <cafuego_> tomas_: yeh, but that can be done easily enough via mplayer and a smattering of settings for ffmpeg
[11:29] <tomas_> which will be both time consuming and cause me alot of more hassle
[11:29] <bakert> lugod, nevermind, thanks for your help earlier.  i managed to print a test page using the cups web interface.  now i need to share it over the network with a windows pc.  any suggestions?
[11:29] <cafuego_> roland_: yup
[11:29] <anabelle> slart, i got this output:
[11:29] <anabelle> anabelle@gathacol-server:~$ readcd dev=/dev/hda -c2scan
[11:29] <anabelle> Read  speed:  8467 kB/s (CD  48x, DVD  6x).
[11:29] <anabelle> Write speed:  8467 kB/s (CD  48x, DVD  6x).
[11:29] <anabelle> readcd: Device not ready.
[11:29] <billy> eternaljoy: click the Sounds tab.  look at the bottom at the Default sound card.  Is it HDA Intel?
[11:29] <nevermind> bakert: combine your cups with a samba install on the same machine
[11:30] <nevermind> bakert: there are manuals for that avail on i think the ubuntu wiki too
[11:30] <eternaljoy> billy: yes Default Card HDA Intel
[11:30] <billy> eternaljoy: ok good.
[11:30] <Slart> anabelle: ok.. try "readcd dev=/dev/hda0 -c2scan" instead
[11:30] <eternaljoy> billy: good? LOL   but sound is broken
[11:30] <bakert> nevermind, how do i refer to the printer in the samba conf file?
[11:30] <nevermind> bakert: as a print share
[11:31] <billy> eternaljoy: it's ONE thing.  go back to Devices and select everything to ALSA.
[11:31] <eternaljoy> billy: any other ideas befoire I cry and have to wipe who Edgy which took me 3 weeks to set up :(
[11:31] <eternaljoy> billy: ok
[11:31] <Slart> anabelle: oh.. you might have to do "sudo umount /dev/hda0" first
[11:31] <billy> eternaljoy: just relax.  don't do that.
[11:31] <eternaljoy> billy: let me try a quick reboot first
[11:31] <SeanTater> I cannot connect to one computer in any way, not even nmap finds it, but it can connect to the first. There are no firewalls in operation on either computer. Why is this?
[11:31] <eternaljoy> billy: ill be back in 1mins
[11:31] <nevermind> bakert: there is a commented out example in the default config of deb, not sure bout ubuntu smb.conf file, havent tried the samba on ubuntu yet
[11:31] <billy> eternaljoy: ok
[11:31] <chori> anyone know if it's possible to "fake" a bluetooth speaker, so you can stream all sound from a laptop to server?
[11:31] <bakert> nevermind, thanks i'll have a look.  i meant how do i know what to "call" it if you know what i mean.  but let me have a look and i'll come back if it doesn't make sense.  thanks.
[11:32] <greig_> hi, i was wondering, when installing a game, and it asks for the second disk at istall, is there a specific command to use or do u just point it to the .exe on the second disk
[11:32] <ikonia> greig_: wine support is in #wine or
[11:32] <ikonia> #winehq
[11:33] <greig_> ok thanks
[11:33] <mikewdhd> Guys: I have an Intel 2000 BG Wirless mini-PCI in a laptop. My router runs WPA. Will this card be detected automatically and installed when I install Edgy? Will WPA work or will I need to do other stuff. :-)
[11:33] <eternaljoy> billy: what wit the sound?
[11:33] <Pep> Hello, any kde power user here? i would like to know how to display a konqole in konqueror (i'm under kubuntu)
[11:33] <eternaljoy> billy: u said change what?
[11:33] <nevermind> mikewdhd: try xsupplicant
[11:34] <romeo> !envy
[11:34] <ubotu> envy is a Python script that eases installation of the official Nvidia and ATI drivers. Please see http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html . Developers may be interested in https://launchpad.net/products/envy - See also !Nvidia
[11:34] <mikewdhd> nevermind: that's wpa-supplicant for X?
[11:34] <billy> eternaljoy: System > Preferences > Sound .  ALSA for all.
[11:34] <eternaljoy> billy: i did that
[11:34] <eternaljoy> now what?
[11:34] <chori> noone?
[11:34] <nevermind> mikewdhd: ahh, yah right, i knew it was something with supplicant
[11:34] <nevermind> mikewdhd: ;)
[11:34] <eternaljoy> billy: and why does the sound bar jump up and down wildly when I try to slide it?
[11:35] <billy> eternaljoy: check the Sound Manager > Preferences again.  It does that because your sound is configured to use ALSA and the volume manager is set to OSS.
[11:35] <nevermind> mikewdhd: i *think* xsupplicant is gui to wpasupplicant, but i could be wrong
[11:35] <Slart> anabelle: just to show you how it looks on my computer.. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11404/
[11:35] <billy> eternaljoy: mine used to do the same thing.
[11:35] <nevermind> using freeradius + wep here
[11:35] <anabelle> anabelle@gathacol-server:~$ sudo umount /dev/hda
[11:35] <anabelle> umount: /dev/hda: no montado

[11:35] <eternaljoy> billy: heck the Sound Manager > Preferences again????
[11:35] <l90bpm> got all your codecs?
[11:35] <l90bpm> gstreamer?
[11:35] <billy> eternaljoy: worth a shot, eh?
[11:35] <eternaljoy> billy: why?  it still shows the same
[11:36] <Slart> anabelle: there is a cd in the drive?
[11:36] <tomas_> Tried kino now.. Seems to only support DV files or something :X
[11:36] <billy> eternaljoy: ok.  just checking.
[11:36] <anabelle> yes there is...
[11:36] <eternaljoy> billy: what have u done to me? :(
[11:36] <l90bpm> lol
[11:36] <eternaljoy> billy: you caused some conflict
[11:36] <anabelle> when it finish  will try with another one and see
[11:36] <nevermind> i always thought mpg2 would be digital video;)
[11:37] <cafuego_> mikewdhd: if you're in gnome, networkmanager will handle WPA for you.
[11:37] <eternaljoy> billy: what am I going to do now?  i spent 3-4 weeks setting this system up :(
[11:37] <tomas_> nevermind, many different formats/codecs :\
[11:37] <eternaljoy> can anyone here help me fix my sound?
