[21:07] <YAOMTC> Right, thanks!
[21:08] <pale-yafa> hi I just installed aspell, but dont know how and where to launch the application
[21:08] <DefunctProcess> pale-yafa: aspell in terminal?
[21:08] <TiredWolf> pale-yafa, aspell is a backend utilized by applications such as OpenOffice (and many others). you can use it from the console (type man aspell), but that's rarely done
[21:09] <SeligArkin> hey i am having trouble getting my Dell Bluetooh keyboard to work in ubuntu

[21:09] <SeligArkin> i got the accompaning mouse to workbut when i try topair it in linux it does not give me enough time enter the key in linux
[21:10] <pale-yafa> TiredWolf: I dont think so
[21:10] <TiredWolf> pale-yafa: when you type misspelled words in OpenOffice, do they get underlined in red?
[21:10] <pale-yafa> TiredWolf: trying to use aspell-ar
[21:10] <SeligArkin> and i am confused cause in windows it uses a generated pin, and i am wondering why linux does not allow me to set the pin (eg i could set it to what windows wants and both will be happy)
[21:10] <pale-yafa> checking arabic text
[21:10] <kasia_> brutopia: setting eesid not supported;/

[21:11] <kasia_> brutopia: OK wrong interface:P
[21:11] <Miesco> asoundconf-gtk is giving me this: By default, asoundconf's configuration file is ~/.asoundrc.asoundconf and must be included in ~/.asoundrc. Open this file to make sure it is!
[21:11] <Miesco> How do i include it
[21:12] <DRebellion> Miesco, you should probably ask asoundconf-gtk developers
[21:12] <ryanlewis> p.s. this is also what happens when I try and do an Upgrade to 8.04 LTS
[21:13] <kasia_> brutopia: ok.. did it.. destination host unreachable
[21:13] <Dwerg> what should i find from md5sum?
[21:13] <firion> When trying to load or install Hardy from the live cd my system loads into a Busybox 1.1.3 command prompt and won't go anywhere after that. Anyone have any idea how to fix this?

[21:15] <Dwerg> what do i find out from md5sum check?
[21:16] <darrend> hi. how do I install php for use with lighttpd without also installing apache2 ?
[21:16] <kasia_> brutopia: any help ?
[21:16] <xxploit> ryanlewis, so what exactly happens? i dont see any error
[21:17] <Dwerg> please help me...
[21:17] <pilotmaker1> darrend I think FastCGI is what you are looking for, not sure
[21:18] <ryanlewis> xxploit it is just hanging
[21:18] <ryanlewis> it has been doing whatever that is for like 2 hours now
[21:18] <bcmiller3> md5 check verifies that you have a good download
[21:18] <darrend> !info fastcgi
[21:18] <ryanlewis> i highly doubt it should take that long
[21:18] <kasia_> alraune: hey
[21:18] <kasia_> alraune: can you help ?
[21:18] <pilotmaker1> darrend http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/lighttpd-php-fastcgi-configuration.html
[21:18] <Dwerg> and what if md5 check tells me it cant open or read any folders or files?
[21:18] <alraune> not really, too busy right now
[21:19] <alraune> kasia_:not really, too busy right now
[21:19] <darrend> pilotmaker1: ok, thanks.  I can't use aptitude for this then?
[21:20] <jum> hello i wrote a script which starts a program resp. game on xserver 2
[21:20] <darrend> pilotmaker1: I still need php to run that, and it's the php install that wants to pull in apache2
[21:20] <amirman> what's the command to change your user password? does this also change your sudo password?
[21:20] <amirman> jum: does it work?
[21:20] <Mrcheese> how are dell ubuntus?
[21:20] <eth01> anybody watching ch4?
[21:20] <eth01> wrong channel.
[21:20] <amirman> Mrcheese: i use ubuntu on a dell but its not the one they sell
[21:20] <jum> sorry xD i said i wrote...no i found that script
[21:21] <Mrcheese> is system76 more cheap?
[21:21] <amirman> jum: does it work?
[21:21] <jum> and no t doesnt function
[21:21] <jum> wait
[21:21] <kasia_> How to connect two hosts in ad-hoc ?
[21:21] <Shujah> amirman, passwd       - if you are first user then root password will always be similar to yours
[21:21] <pilotmaker1> darrend that is odd, it should just be package php and php-fcgi as far as I remember
[21:21] <Flannel> Shujah, amirman: no.  The root password doesn't exist.
[21:21] <danya> hi .. have anyone installed autopackage software before ?
[21:22] <PriceChild> danya: it is best to keep to the ubuntu repositories.
[21:22] <Flannel> amirman: passwd changes your password, which is the password sudo asks for, so yes.
[21:22] <RequinB4> !anyone
[21:22] <Shujah> err in a manner of speaking sudo is a shortcut for root
[21:22] <Flannel> Shujah: No, its very different.
[21:22] <RequinB4> Shujah: no...
[21:22] <BrandonS> I have a problem where Mozilla Firefox and Four-in-a-row randomly closes for no reason.
[21:22] <RequinB4> !rootsudo
[21:22] <danya> PriceChild : I can't seem to upgrade amsn :(
[21:22] <darrend> pilotmaker1: think I got it. If i install php-cli and php-cgi it looks like I get what I need without it installing apache
[21:23] <pilotmaker1> darrend sounds good, if not the folks at http://forum.lighttpd.net/forum/1/ should be able to help
[21:23] <PriceChild> danya: any reason why the one in ubuntu is not good enough?
[21:24] <amirman> jum: i tried to make a script for that and discovered that x authorizations are stored in /tmp which meant even if i did go through the pain of using xauth to give my user the authorization to create a new x server i would have to do all that junk manually each session, i havent found a way to go about it, if you do, please tell me
[21:24] <danya> PriceChild : .. I have the amsn 0.97 .. but somehow it wouldnt work anymore saying I have to upgrade .. and I hate kopete and pidgin
[21:24] <anirudh0> danya, pidgin and kopete can handle msn
[21:25] <danya> PriceChild : I'm on ubuntu 8.04 amd64
[21:25] <PriceChild> danya: it won't stop working and claim it needs an upgrade... it may suggest there is an upgrade available, but it will still work.
[21:25] <danya> PriceChild : yea I know that's what it's supposed to do but since last night it stopped working and forcing me to upgrade and I can't seem to find a way to do it
[21:25] <Styrbjorn> hmm krånglar msn ?
[21:25] <bullgard4> Does Freenode provide a channel for Thinkpad users?
[21:26] <danya> anirudh0 : .. I hate them both lol i got used to amsn
[21:26] <db92> danya, i also got used to amsn but it stopped working for me in the end
[21:26] <db92> dandel, gave me some tcl thingy error, so i switched to kmess
[21:26] <histo> Okay I need to chmod all my mp3 files in ~/Music  they are also nested in sub directories of music.  Is there an easy way to do this?

[21:27] <serialpinguin> Hello all, Im using 8.04 server and apache2 starts everytime I reboot the system. How to I keep apache from starting at bootup,, short of uninstalling it

[21:28] <amirman> adac: thats because root has no password in ubuntu, its not advised to use su but instead to use sudo
[21:29] <ryanlewis> reffering to my earlier post: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/langpack-locales/+bug/249340
[21:29] <Cpudan80> serialpinguin: uncheck apache
[21:29] <db92> danya, better :p
[21:29] <adac> amirman: and how can I set the password? can u tell me?
[21:29] <Flannel> adac: You don't want to set the root password.
[21:29] <danya> ok can anyone help me with installing java and make it work on FF3 .. amd64 :( ...
[21:29] <amirman> adac: you can find it online, i forget the command
[21:29] <Ryan_Delaney> adac: sudo passwd
[21:29] <Slart> adac: if you want a root terminal run sudo -i
[21:30] <Ryan_Delaney> adac: but like he explained, it's not recommended to set a root password
[21:30] <Slart> adac: just enter your regular user password
[21:30] <histo> Is there a way to chmod 644 files recursively?
[21:30] <Myrtti> Ryan_Delaney: do not even teach them that command then
[21:30] <Slart> histo: -R
[21:30] <amirman> adac: why dont you use sudo?
[21:30] <histo> Slart: I've tried that i'm getting errors
[21:30] <adac> I know guys...I will be careful!!
[21:30] <Slart> chmod -R 644 /path/to/files/
[21:30] <Ryan_Delaney> Myrtti: An interesting metadebate, I think people should have their questions answered and then warn them of the dangers
[21:30] <Slart> histo: what kind of errors?
[21:31] <Ryan_Delaney> Myrtti: It's not up to us to decide what the user wants to do :)
[21:31] <jum> amirman: im both not a newbie and not a pro so i dont understand what you mean when you say xauth and " i would have to do all that junk manually each session " sry i only can give you the script (which by the way works now very fine xD)
[21:31] <Flannel> adac: Why do you have the urge to set the root password?
[21:31]  * ice_cream chuckles at the thought of 'sudo visudo'
[21:31] <amirman> jum: please do give me the script :)
[21:31] <Ryan_Delaney> A good question, there is really no reason to set a root password
[21:31] <histo> Slart: well i'm trying chmod -Rv 644 *.mp3  and i'm getting: failed to change mode of `*.mp3' to 3704 (rwx--Sr-T)
[21:32] <histo> Slart: I just want them to have normal permissions again I've copied them from my ntfs drive and the perms are all messed up.
[21:32] <adac> Flannel: I just wanted to know how to set the password. It is not that I will use it frequently
[21:32] <ice_cream> Ryan_Delaney, sure there is, depending on your sudoers settings
[21:32] <Slart> histo: do you own the files?
[21:32] <earthian> Hello, can somebody help me with an issue: i have over 4K of zombie processes here, my hdd is being read/writen and things are extremely slow. the task is like this from top:  305 earthian  35  15     0    0    0 Z  0.0  0.0   0:00.00 pinot-dbus-daem <defunct>
[21:32] <Flannel> adac: The fact that the password is set is "using it frequently", one benefit of using sudo is that the root account is locked.
[21:33] <joaopinto> earthian, uninstall pinot :)
[21:33] <Flannel> adac: Why are you wanting the root account locked though? Is it in case sudo breaks? or for a root shell? or what?
[21:33] <earthian> its seems that the hdd just stopped being that active and now i kinda already can write something that appears here not after i finish two lines
[21:33] <histo> Slart: hold on let me check they are in my ~/Music
[21:34] <adac> Flannel: root shell. probably logging in as root sometimes over ssh
[21:34] <earthian> pinot... whats that pinot anyway? :(
[21:34] <bandaLarga> hi, you know s/thing 'bout smartcards and linux?
[21:34] <Flannel> adac: For a root shell, you use sudo -i.  Also, root should be disabled over SSH.
[21:34] <histo> Slart: yeah I own them.
[21:34] <histo> Slart: its histo histo
[21:34] <histo> Slart: I first had to fix all the directories.
[21:34] <amirman> jum: feel free to pm me, i'm really eager to get that script
[21:35] <jum> amirman: okay please wait i will post it on a paste service
[21:35] <amirman> jum: thank you
[21:35] <Slart> histo: hmm.. then I don't know what could be wrong.. chmod -R should change files and folders recursively..
[21:35] <histo> Slart: well what permissions should they normally have?
[21:35] <Guest39105> is it possible to make userlists in GDM themes transparent?
[21:36] <adac> Flannel: Ok I will try to get used to sudo
[21:36] <beakman> Hi
[21:36] <Flannel> adac: let us know if you need any help accomplishing something.
[21:37] <cwill747> !hi | beakman

[21:43] <histo> Some of the folders contain other folders
[21:43] <jetscreamer> chmod 666 *.mp3 ?
[21:44] <thinkgnu> histo: chmod -R
[21:44] <jetscreamer> or that
[21:44] <histo> thinkgnu: I get an error when I try chmod -R *.mp3
[21:44] <jetscreamer> you need +x on all the directories
[21:44] <histo> thinkgnu: sry chmod -R 644 *.mp3
[21:44] <histo> jetscreamer: I've got that.
[21:44] <thinkgnu> histo: chmod -R 644 ./Music
[21:44] <cocolite> hola
[21:44] <histo> I was able to chmod the directories to 755 without a problem. But cant fix the files

[21:47] <thinkgnu> goto*
[21:48] <histo> thinkgnu: I don't want to change the artist folder to 644
[21:48] <histo> thinkgnu: it should be 755 no?
[21:48] <ioannis> hello, iam new in ubuntu and i could use some help, if possible in german
[21:48] <bandaLarga> i tried with dpkg-reconfigure locale but it didn't work
[21:48] <Jack_Sparrow> !de
[21:49] <ioannis> thanks
[21:49] <ice_cream> bandaLarga, are you getting locale errors on    perl -v  ?
[21:49] <thinkgnu> histo: goto music folder and then run this >> chmod 644 -R artist/  *.mp3
[21:50] <histo> thinkgnu: heres an example in side of music is "drwxr-xr-x 3 histo histo 4096 2007-01-07 10:29 Weird Al Yankovic" And inside of that is "drwxr-xr-x 2 histo histo 4096 2007-01-07 10:29 Straight Outta Lynwood" containing the files "-rwxr-xr-x 1 histo histo 4087101 2006-12-25 18:48 01 - White and Nerdy.mp3"
[21:50] <bandaLarga> ice_cream: no errors, it just gives some version infos
[21:50]  * ice_cream nods
[21:50] <marcelo> does anybody here has already used the library libcore.so?
[21:50] <histo> thinkgnu: as you can see the directories are fine its mp3 that is messed up
[21:50] <histo> !anyone > marcelo
[21:51] <ice_cream> ok, i just had a locale problem recently that had some unset variables that affected perl stuff
[21:51] <Flannel> histo: try chmod a+rX [files] instead of 644
[21:51] <bandaLarga> ice_cream: tnx neway
[21:51] <thinkgnu> histo: i don't know !
[21:51] <Jack_Sparrow> marcelo It is often better to tell us what you are trying to install manually or from unsupported repos
[21:51] <histo> Flannel: Same error
[21:52] <thinkgnu> histo: give the output of this command > chmod 644 -R artist/  *.mp3
[21:52] <histo> Flannel: chmod: cannot access `*.mp3': No such file or directory  Keep in mind i'm in ~/Music issuing the following command chmod -R a+rX *.mp3
[21:52] <underandy> anyone here with ubuntu using asus eee 900?
[21:52] <marcelo> ok.
[21:52] <Jack_Sparrow> !eeepc
[21:52] <CatCheeto> Is there an easy way to install ubuntu from a flashdrive instead of CD?
[21:52] <histo> thinkgnu: that would only change one artists mp3's I have many i'm trying to do them all at once.
[21:53] <Flannel> histo: try chmod -R a+rX .
[21:53] <Jack_Sparrow> !usb
[21:53] <soundray> underandy: do you have a problem with yours?
[21:53] <Flannel> histo: wile in ~/Music
[21:53] <amirman> CatCheeto: yes there is, i just did it about a half hour ago
[21:53] <amirman> CatCheeto: i can walk you through it since the link they have here doesnt really have all the info
[21:53] <pdlnhrd> i just upgraded ubuntu and my dual screens no longer work... what can i do?
[21:53] <Sonderblade> i upgraded to hardy and now i can only run xorg in 800x600! reinstalling the nvidia driver didn't help
[21:53] <CatCheeto> Thanks Jack_Sparrow and amirman
[21:53] <histo> Flannel: okay no error but didn't change the mp3 files to 644
[21:54] <Brucee> Sonderblade what card?
[21:54] <soundray> pdlnhrd: see if you can get it back on track via System-Preferences-Screen Resolution
[21:54] <amirman> CatCheeto: are you using ubuntu right now?
[21:54] <Flannel> histo: What did it change them to then?
[21:54] <histo> Flannel: -rwxr-xr-x 1 histo histo 4087101 2006-12-25 18:48 01 - White and Nerdy.mp3
[21:54] <pdlnhrd> soundray: it only lists one monitor :(
[21:54] <Sonderblade> Brucee: nvidia geforce 6200
[21:54] <Brucee> screen flicks?
[21:54] <soundray> pdlnhrd: even when you restart X with both attached?
[21:54] <Brucee> or mouse stalls?
[21:54] <Flannel> histo: alright, now do this: chmod -R a-x .
[21:54] <pdlnhrd> soundray: yes i even rebooted
[21:54] <CatCheeto> amirman: My PC is, target PC is not
[21:55] <khoda> What's a good, lightweight, program to view images with? "xv" doesnt seem to be in the repositories
[21:55] <soundray> pdlnhrd: what's your graphics chipset?
[21:55] <cocolite> hello
[21:55] <histo> Flannel: ahh they retained 0755 with the previous command
[21:55] <marcelo> i have installed the software ROOT(i downloaded it form the cern site) in the /usr/bin directory. When i try to run it i get the message like that: libCore.so no such file or directory.
[21:55] <histo> Flannel: let me try that one
[21:55] <cocolite> i'm new in this chat
[21:55] <anirudh0> khoda: imagemagick provides "display"
[21:55] <qr_> khoda: qiv is quite nice for that
[21:55] <amirman> CatCheeto: ok good, because i did it with my ubuntu pc for another pc too
[21:55] <khoda> qr_: thanks, I'll check it out
[21:55] <amirman> CatCheeto: get the bin file from here http://lubi.sourceforge.net/unetbootin.html
[21:55] <pdlnhrd> soundray: nVidia Corporation NV41GL [Quadro FX 1400]
[21:56] <cocolite> i want to find information about ubuntu
[21:56] <histo> Flannel: chmod: cannot read directory `.': Permission denied
[21:56] <Flannel> cocolite: What sort of information?
[21:56] <marcelo> but when i try to run it from the directory i have installed it(exporting some variables) i have no problems
[21:56] <histo> Flannel: failed to change mode of `.' to 0644 (rw-r--r--)
[21:56] <amirman> CatCheeto: then you need to get syslinux and p7zip-full from synaptic or using apt-get from the command line
[21:56] <soundray> pdlnhrd: are you using the proprietary driver? Check with System-Administration-Hardware Drivers
[21:56] <ice_cream> khoda, feh is also decent, but no gui
[21:56] <cocolite> i want to know if i can find some chat en spanish
[21:56] <histo> Flannel: no it changed it but now I can't see anytihgn in the directory
[21:56] <Flannel> histo: And this is in ~/Music?  Is this some odd mounted-from-somewhere-else somethingorother?
[21:57] <pdlnhrd> soundray: yes i installed the nvidia driver.  should i not have done that?
[21:57] <Flannel> !es | cocolite
[21:57] <cwill747> !es > cocolite
[21:57] <dru> hey, how would i go about adding a password to a .zip file?
[21:57] <histo> Flannel: that was the verbose output it changed even the folders to 644 they are no longer readable by my user
[21:57] <amirman> CatCheeto: you'll also need an ISO of the latest ubuntu 8.04.1 - message me when you get that far
[21:57] <soundray> pdlnhrd: it's fine, but that explains why the res dialog doesn't work.
[21:57] <cwill747> dru, you can sign it or encrypt it
[21:57] <anirudh0> dru: cant be done afaik
[21:57] <pdlnhrd> soundray:  i misspoken... it says i am not using propriatary drivers yet i clicked to install them
[21:57] <ice_cream> dru,  probably  zip -e filename
[21:58] <amirman> !es | cocolite
[21:58] <dru> anirudh0 .. it can be done, but not in any linux program
[21:58] <fistandandelus> hey guys can someone please help, im having alot of trouble getting ubuntu to boot
[21:58] <histo> Flannel: drwxr-xr-x 3 histo histo 4096 2007-01-07 10:29 Weird Al Yankovic and I get permission denied why I try an ls as more normal user I have to use sudo
[21:58] <dru> i know in winrar it can be done .. but winrar is just a command line
[21:58] <Flannel> histo: er... So, the permissions are right, but you can't... What are the permissions for the ~/Music folder?
[21:58] <soundray> pdlnhrd: oh, ok. Let it do its thing then and reboot. After that, try with nvidia-settings (it comes in its own package)
[21:58] <anirudh0> dru: rar file or zip file?
[21:58] <soundray> !info nvidia-settings | pdlnhrd
[21:58] <jshriver> greetings
[21:59] <dru> winrar does both rar and zip files .. but i am trying to do it to a zip file
[21:59] <histo> Flannel: No something messed up happened witht he last command
[21:59] <earthian> histo, why dont you want to 755 all your folders and mp3/ogg there?
[21:59] <pdlnhrd> soundray:  cool.... i will work with it... i think i might be able to get it now
[21:59] <histo> Flannel: alhh the . removed the xx from the Music folder
[21:59] <jshriver> anyone know of a linux based utility to help recover an ntfs filesystem? I'm using ddrescue now to dump the drive to an image on a USB disk. Out of 100gigs only about 2megs seem messed up, but those are at the beginning
[21:59] <soundray> pdlnhrd: good luck
[21:59] <fistandandelus> grub loads but says Error 17 cannot mount selected partition
[21:59] <Flannel> histo: right, go ahead adn add that back, and you'll be fine
[21:59] <jshriver> didnt know if ntfs had superblocks or fs backups
[22:00] <anirudh0> fistandandelus: check partition name in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[22:00] <fistandandelus> how do i do that?
[22:00] <anirudh0> fistandandelus: did you repartition your drive recently
[22:00] <soundray> jshriver: there are some tools
[22:00] <histo> Flannel: alright but the mp3s are still -rwxr-xr-x 1 histo histo 4087101 2006-12-25 18:48 01 - White and Nerdy.mp3
[22:00] <anirudh0> fistandandelus: menu.lst is a text file
[22:00] <soundray> !info ntfsprogs | jshriver
[22:00] <histo> Flannel: when we did chmod -R a-X .   It just did that for the current working directory
[22:01] <histo> earthian: Shouldn't they be 644 in my home
[22:01] <anirudh0> jshriver: ntfsfix exists..but its pretty basic
[22:01] <soundray> jshriver: but it might be better to use Windows to fix its own filesystem
[22:01] <Flannel> histo: No, don't do that.  It'll remove execute on all folders too.
[22:01] <anirudh0> jshriver: running chkdsk in win cmd is your best shot
[22:01] <histo> Flannel: I know
[22:01] <cocolite> some one can tell me a kind of sniffer that i cant use in linux
[22:01] <fistandandelus> let me explain, i have 2 hdds one that i formatted and and installed ubuntu on.the other has 2 partitions one with data and the other with windows on it. if i install while both are connnected neither will boot. If i disconnect the windows hdd and install ubuntu...ubuntu will boot..i need both though
[22:01] <histo> Flannel: It removed execute on Music that was the problem we just encountered
[22:02] <gfather> guys how can i chmod a folder and all its content
[22:02] <gfather> ?
[22:02] <histo> gfather: having the same issues myself
[22:02] <joaopinto> becarefull with that
[22:02] <soundray> fistandandelus: are they IDE or SATA?
[22:02] <Wanderer> any vi guru's around?  need to do a bit of a strange search and replace
[22:02] <joaopinto> gfather, don't do that on a system folder
[22:02] <anirudh0> fistandandelus: both are sata?
[22:02] <earthian> histo, 644 is read/write for owner and readonly for everybody else. while 755 ir read/write/execute by owner and read/execute by everybody else and while the mp3 are note executables, i do not see any harm..
[22:02] <fistandandelus> the one im sntalling ubuntu on is sata
)
[22:02] <joaopinto> gfather, chmod -R
[22:02] <earthian> i have 777 in my music folder
[22:02] <fistandandelus> the other is ide
[22:03] <earthian> so that form any user i can remove anything i want there
 its not a system folder ;)
[22:03] <fistandandelus> no
[22:03] <joaopinto> earthian, which is a terrible thing to do
[22:03] <anirudh0> Jack_Sparrow: you were helping someone yesterday with fistandandelus's problem..could you please take a look..
[22:03] <[kurt]> ыть
  chmod 777 -r  ?
[22:03] <histo> earthian: okay I'm trying to get them 644 then.
[22:03] <joaopinto> gfather, chmod -R 770 folder
[22:03] <histo> earthian: or 755
[22:03] <pCrack> 2008-08-05 17:03:24 >> 9991beeb1ab934bd8130384006c61eca = helping1
[22:03] <Jack_Sparrow> anirudh0 Let me look back
[22:03] <gfather> oks , thanks m8 ;)
[22:03] <joaopinto> you rarely use 777
[22:03] <histo> earthian: either way I'm trying to do it from ~/Music and they are in subfolders
[22:04] <Flannel> histo: You'll have to use find and chmod
[22:04] <anirudh0> fistandandelus: wait for Jack_Sparrow :)
[22:04] <fistandandelus> ??? does that mean im out of luck?
[22:04] <Jack_Sparrow> fistandandelus What is on the ide drive
[22:04] <lopezmatias> hello, for some reason i cant delete one archive that i was downloading.. i didnt have enough space.. but now is there.. i cant move it, or delete it,. anything
[22:04] <histo> Flannel: Thats what i'm thinkking somehting like find . -name '*.mp3' -exec chmod 644 {};
[22:05] <fistandandelus> on the ide drive there are 2 partitions. One with windows and the other with isos..music etc
[22:05] <soundray> lopezmatias: do you want to remove it?
[22:05] <Jack_Sparrow> fistandandelus if you research mixing ide and sata drives you will find lots of info on all of the problems and some of the possible fixes
[22:05] <lopezmatias> Soundray: yes
[22:05] <cocolite> any sniffer that a cant use in ubuntu
[22:05] <anirudh0> lopezmatias: you are trying from file manager or terminal?
[22:05] <soundray> lopezmatias: where is it located?
[22:05] <anirudh0> cocolite: wireshark
[22:05] <RequinB4> for i in `find . -maxdepth 1`; do chmod 644 $i; done
[22:06] <fistandandelus> so this is a normal problem with mixing drives?
[22:06] <lopezmatias> file manager.. and its located on desktop
[22:06] <lopezmatias> i cant move it i just can rename thats it
[22:06] <Jack_Sparrow> fistandandelus only on some bios's
[22:06] <cwill747> lopezmatias, try from the terminal
[22:06] <soundray> lopezmatias: open a terminal and try 'sudo rm $HOME/Desktop/name-of-your-file'
[22:06] <lopezmatias> yeah i dont know the commands.
[22:06] <fistandandelus> bios for mb? with windows there was never a problem
[22:06] <Fungusman> Hey guys
[22:06] <anirudh0> lopezmatias: open terminal..do "cd ~/Desktop&&rm <archive-name>"
[22:06] <henux> Somebody tell me how to configure tablet in Ubuntu? Do I need to add InputDevice into my xorg.conf?
[22:06] <Fungusman> I just rented a DVD and I can't play it on Ubuntu ?!
[22:07] <darkness__> does anybody know how to set up a network through a MoDem so that you can dial into an Ubuntu machine (connected to Internet Via LAN) and access the internet from it?
[22:07] <cocolite> ok thank you
[22:07] <Fungusman> It says "Cannot read from resource"
[22:07] <anirudh0> lopezmatias: <archive-name> is name of file
[22:07] <histo> Flannel: sry my syntax was wrong should have been find . -name "*.mp3" -exec chmod 644 '{}' /;
[22:07] <ompaul> !dvd | Fungusman
[22:07] <anirudh0> Fungusman: try gmplayer
[22:07] <marcelo> i was trying to delete a directory bin i habe created and run the command rm -rf /bin(as root) you can imagine what has happend. What could i do to recover the /bin directory?
[22:07] <Fungusman> Thanks !
[22:08] <Jack_Sparrow> fistandandelus it is how the bios report the drives to the os...  there are some simple ways to configure them to work in most cases.. and FYI.. windows was not trying to setup dual boot for you like ubuntu
[22:08] <Pupeno> Hello.
[22:08] <Maxflax> Anyone know how to get a twinhan 2033 DVB-t card to work in ubuntu hardy?
[22:08] <anirudh0> marcelo: if you have another install, you can just copy files
[22:08] <RequinB4> !hi | Pupeno
[22:08] <Pupeno> Is it me or Brasero can't make ISO images?
[22:08] <soundray> marcelo: restore from your backup
[22:08] <fistandandelus> could you perhaps offer some advice, im a nub
[22:08] <anirudh0> marcelo: or boot in live cd and copy the /bin of the live cd into your drive's /bin
[22:08] <henux> Somebody tell me how to configure tablet in Ubuntu? Do I need to add InputDevice into my xorg.conf?
[22:08] <darkness__> is there a way in Ubuntu to communicate between computers using the MoDem?
[22:09] <soundray> darkness__: what modem?
[22:09] <RivitingOne> if I have sda1 set up as swap on the first part of my hard drive, then sda3 second with my file system, then sda2 at the end with the majority of my free space will it cause a problem?
[22:09] <RequinB4> !ask | fistandandelus
[22:09] <anirudh0> RivitingOne: no
[22:09] <marcelo> thanks, i will try
[22:09] <darkness__> soundray: there are 2 modems, one in my Ubuntu machine, and one in my Windows machine
[22:09] <zvacet> Pupeno : if you don´t want to burn but make iso then install isomaster
[22:09] <lopezmatias> rm its not working
[22:09] <lopezmatias> cant found the file
[22:09] <cocolite> but wireshark is the same ethereal?
[22:09] <Pupeno> How do I make an ISO image?
[22:10] <RequinB4> !iso | Pupeno
[22:10] <ompaul> cocolite, it is the *new* version
[22:10] <soundray> RivitingOne: I would recommend creating an extended partition instead of sda2 at the end. Then you can further subdivide the space
[22:10] <anirudh0> lopezmatias: check your filename..do "ls "
[22:10] <RivitingOne> Is there a way to set sda2 as the default install destination for packages?
[22:10] <Pupeno> RequinB4: not much help there.
[22:10] <HappyHater> Pupeno, and iso from what?
[22:10] <soundray> darkness__: only if you have a phone line in between the two
[22:10] <HappyHater> -d
[22:10] <cocolite> ok thank you
[22:10] <Pupeno> HappyHater: a CD.
[22:10] <sytheticz> hi, is this the right channel for software problems?
[22:10] <anirudh0> RivitingOne: ?
[22:10] <fistandandelus> im not sure what the means. Im asking id anyone has had experience installing and successfully booting ubuntu and windows on two hdds, one sata and one ide
[22:10] <Pupeno> sytheticz: if the software is Ubuntu.
[22:10] <soundray> sytheticz: you should know, you've received help here before
[22:10] <zvacet> Pupeno : isomaster is what you want
[22:10] <darkness__> soundray: so you mean connecting with a phone line or having them connect out to the internet?
[22:10] <anirudh0> RivitingOne: packages are installed in /usr mostly
[22:11] <sytheticz> ah, its Amsn this time
[22:11] <soundray> darkness__: either
[22:11] <anirudh0> RivitingOne: so put /usr in sda2
[22:11] <sytheticz> i thought it was third party so wasnt sure
[22:11] <RequinB4> Pupeno - easiest is to use dd (man dd)  - what are the source files?
[22:11] <Jack_Sparrow> fistandandelus and I said yes, but it is not a simple answer and you need to have the windows install on the right partition of the right drive
[22:11] <cwill747> !burn | pupeno
[22:11] <ompaul> RivitingOne, not directly if you have, that as your /usr partition or /var so you can put the packages there .. that is not trivial it needs editing a file called /etc/fstab and if you get that wrong you will not have a working system
[22:11] <darkness__> soundray: well I can connect one to the other in the same room, I just can't connect the Windows machine to the internet
[22:12] <anirudh0> ompaul: i think he's talking about a fresh install
[22:12] <soundray> darkness__: can't you setup a LAN?
[22:12] <cocolite> here you are the way to do a iso image  mkisofs -r -o name.iso /media/cdrom1
[22:12] <Jack_Sparrow> !iso
[22:12] <cocolite> name.iso is the name to the image
[22:12] <lopezmatias> This is weird.. i cant see the file using LS..
[22:12] <darkness__> soundray: I tried, but the windows machine isn't compatible with any of my network cards
[22:12] <fistandandelus> so jack sparrow. What you are saying is that it would be easier were there only 1 partition on the windows ide drive yes?
[22:12] <lopezmatias> and when i try to remove it.. i get this.. rm: cannot remove `home/desktop/loko': No such file or directory
[22:12] <adac> I cannot enable the grafic effects...what can be wrong?
[22:12] <RivitingOne> The idea is that I will have my file system seperate from my applications
[22:12] <anirudh0> lopezmatias: then the file does not exist ;)
[22:12] <fm2008> is there any tool that can allow me to get a list of all the apps on freshmeat.net that have been updated this 2008? i do not want to spend hours browsing, you know
[22:12] <cocolite> and the other one is the path
[22:12] <PH_ZOM> How do I make a video that will run on a fresh ubuntu install? Mencoder does not encode to the 'free' format ogg thora... any suggestions?
[22:12] <anirudh0> lopezmatias: do "ls -a" just to be sure
[22:13] <Jack_Sparrow> Create ISO of CD Rom... dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/home/$USER/Desktop/file.iso bs=2k
[22:13] <Maxflax> How do I get a DVB-card to work in ubuntu.. it's a Twinhan 2033 card DVB-T?
[22:13] <soundray> darkness__: then you have a Windows problem.
[22:13] <TiredWolf> !dvb | Maxflax
[22:13] <ompaul> !windows | darkness__
[22:13] <lopezmatias> not there
[22:13] <RivitingOne> or does that matter with ext3 format
[22:13] <darkness__> soundray: What I need is a program that will allow my computer to be dialed into from another machine
[22:13] <lopezmatias> the file exist.. is there
[22:13] <lopezmatias> i see it
[22:13] <lopezmatias> come on lol
[22:13] <RequinB4> !vnc
[22:13] <RequinB4> !ssh
[22:13] <soundray> lopezmatias: you're not using the command correctly
[22:13] <cocolite> do you undertand?
[22:13] <anirudh0> lopezmatias: the file does not exist then..file manager had a problem
[22:13] <Fungusman> Codecs are not working
[22:13] <Fungusman> Hmmmm
[22:13] <Fungusman> gxine
[22:13] <darkness__> also microsoft stopped supporting Windows 98
[22:14] <zvacet> lopezmatias : cd Desktop and then ls and look if you can see your archive
[22:14] <fistandandelus> would that be correct Sparrow?
[22:14] <soundray> darkness__: with good reason
[22:14] <lopezmatias> 784.4 mb its the weight of the file
[22:14] <henux> Somebody tell me how do I get my Wacom tablet working in Ubuntu or do I have to change into Windows XP since Ubuntu is nonsense?
[22:14] <Pupeno> isomaster is not what I want.
[22:14] <darkness__> soundray: ya... but do you know how I can allow my computer to be dialed into from the modem?
[22:14] <anirudh0> lopezmatias: you are in the right directory in terminal?
[22:14] <Pupeno> How do you create an ISO out of a CD these days?
[22:14] <RivitingOne> With the ext3 format does it benefit me in any way to isolate my applications on a seperate partition?
[22:14] <soundray> darkness__: to setup ubuntu as a dialup host, you need a serial getty like mgetty
[22:14] <RequinB4> Pupeno: scroll up, about 5 people have answerd :)
[22:15] <darkness__> well I tried that, but I can't seem to configure it
[22:15] <Maxflax> How do I get a DVB-card to work in ubuntu.. it's a Twinhan 2033 card DVB-T?
[22:15] <cwill747> henux: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wacom

[22:15] <linxeh> Maxflax: start with google and reading the pointers people give you in here
[22:16] <Pupeno> RequinB4: the only answer that really address the question is dd, and I'm not comfortable with dd.

[22:16] <HappyHater> Pupeno, there might be a gui frontend around somewhere, but dd/mkisofs should work fine
[22:16] <soundray> darkness__: you shouldn't ask such a vague question then. Your question should be "how do I configure mgetty". The answer to that is: There is documentation in /usr/share/doc/mgetty
[22:16] <Blaqlight> openbox from their own website is hopelessly broken...
[22:17] <Maxflax> linxeh - I've done lots of googling on the matter.. tried stuff that don't work ect
[22:17] <darkness__> soundray: ok... sory for asking a vague question.  Thank's for the help

[22:17] <lopezmatias> no joy

[22:17] <lopezmatias> as root
[22:17] <soundray> lopezmatias: tell me *exactly* what *ls* command you use to see the file
[22:17] <Jack_Sparrow> Pupeno Create ISO of CD Rom... dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/home/$USER/Desktop/file.iso bs=2k
[22:17] <Maxflax> linxeh - but it seems that people get it to work somehow. and they arn't telling how they do it
[22:18] <lopezmatias> and i try to rm another file and i was not able too
[22:18] <lopezmatias> so the command is wrong or the file manager have problems
[22:18] <soundray> lopezmatias: can you answer a SIMPLE question please
[22:18] <linxeh> Maxflax: ok, and its dvb-t not dvb-c ?
[22:18] <Pupeno> Jack_Sparrow: why bs=2k?
[22:18] <Maxflax> linxeh - dvb-t
[22:18] <RequinB4> Pupeno: Many commerical CD's with non-free content have DRM that restrict copying for pirating reasons
[22:18] <Jack_Sparrow> lopezmatias Pupeno to reduce the size of any errors found
[22:19] <lopezmatias> rm HOME/desktop/(name of file)
[22:19] <Blaqlight> whats the command for wget that allows you to resume?
[22:19] <soundray> lopezmatias: you are not answering my question
[22:19] <qr_> Blaqlight: wget -c I believe
[22:19] <RequinB4> Blaqlight: wget -c FILE
[22:19] <alraune> lopezmatias: loko has subdirectories ?
[22:19] <lopezmatias> so what exactly you need
[22:19] <lopezmatias> thats what im using
[22:19] <soundray> lopezmatias: tell me *exactly* what *ls* command you use to see the file
[22:19] <Jack_Sparrow> Pupeno a big block is faster but a small error will ruin a larger amount of data
[22:19] <Pupeno> Jack_Sparrow: why 2 and no other number?
[22:19] <Maxflax> linxeh - twinhan has drivers for Fedora but they don't work..
[22:19] <lopezmatias> ls -a
[22:19] <Pupeno> RequinB4: this is a CD my wife recorded.
[22:19] <lopezmatias> thats what i use
[22:19] <Jack_Sparrow> Pupeno man dd                     or make it 4
[22:20] <rconan> can someone send me the contents of a default /etc/gdm/Xsession"
[22:20] <rconan> I just deleted mine by accident
[22:20] <soundray> lopezmatias: and how does that command report the filename?
[22:20] <Pupeno> Jack_Sparrow: you are missing my point, but no problem.
[22:20] <Maxflax> linxeh - I found some other drivers that some guy Manu made.. don't work..
[22:20] <RequinB4> Pupeno: I had to say it though.  What exactly "doesn't work"
[22:20] <zippytech> hey i am upgrading a box to 8.04 and it looks to be stuck on xvncserver with 14 min left if there a wahy to kill the procress and continue from there
[22:20] <TiredWolf> Maxflax, according to google and the twinhan website, that's a dvb-c card...
[22:21] <lopezmatias> soundray i can eve see the file there
[22:21] <soundray> lopezmatias: you are pulling my leg, right?
[22:21] <Maxflax> TiredWolf - ops.. I ment the card 3030 .. sorry
[22:21] <Pupeno> I'll just install k3b, it used to work. Very often Gnome/Ubuntu sucks and I wish I stayed on Kubuntu :(
[22:21] <DareDevi1> Buenas
[22:21] <Maxflax> linxeh - the card is a 3030
[22:21] <lopezmatias> what you mean that how that command report it?
[22:21] <DareDevi1> Alguien conoce un http tunnel para Ubuntu?
[22:22] <Pupeno> !ES
[22:22] <linxeh> Maxflax: sorry, I bought my cards so they work with linux
[22:22] <soundray> lopezmatias: you know how when you enter a command like 'ls -a', you get a response?
[22:22] <DareDevi1> \join #ubuntu-es
[22:22] <soundray> lopezmatias: I'd like to know what that response is. But only the part that relates to the problem file.
[22:22] <lopezmatias> yes..  get a lot of file names thats what i get.. in different colors
[22:22] <cwill747> DareDevil,  other slash

[22:23] <Maxflax> linxeh - well, I need the CI to use a card to get the pay channels.. the free channels are few and they are lame
[22:23] <soundray> lopezmatias: exactly, that's what I want to know
[22:23] <iqson716> may I decrease /home partition?
[22:23] <lopezmatias> not what its inside.. i found it. there it is.. it was a distro for my eeepc.. the eeexubuntu

[22:24] <linxeh> Maxflax: I just dont watch much TV, and I've got the BBC with decent  channels free so I'm spoilt I guess
[22:24] <soundray> lopezmatias: okay, I will tell you exactly what you have to type in to delete those. Will you promise to read really, really carefully?
[22:24] <zvacet> Pupeno : is http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/2769/ubuntu_how_to_create_iso_image_from_cd_dvd what are you looking for
[22:24] <lopezmatias> yeah
[22:24] <lopezmatias> i promise
[22:25] <DareDevi1> Does anybody knows how to install a  Kworld ATSC 120 PCI TV-CARD??
[22:25] <soundray> lopezmatias: sudo rm eee-osd_2.1*
[22:25] <Maxflax> linxeh - me neither, but my gf does. and I want to get rid of the box and only use my htpc.. but someday maybe

[22:26] <Atomhunter> I just have a quick question how do you load codexes to play blockbuster DVDs?
[22:26] <itrebal> is it possible to switch from kubuntu to regular ubuntu after the installation?
[22:26] <lopezmatias> ok done
[22:26] <Flannel> itrebal: yep
[22:26] <Blaqlight> iqson716: CTRL ALT F1 then use gparted. CTRL ALT F7 to get back to desktop

[22:26] <orangepeelbeef> i can't get mkv files with ogg vorbis audio in them to play the audio in mplayer      can anyone help/
[22:26] <TiredWolf> itrebal: sort of. the Kubuntu stuff will still be there unless you remove every package manually, i believe.
[22:26] <zvacet> itrebal : yes
[22:26] <lopezmatias> let me check
[22:26] <Flannel> itrebal: Do you want to add ubuntu, or switch? (removing kubuntu)
[22:26] <TiredWolf> itrebal: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[22:26] <linxeh> itrebal: of course
[22:26] <DareDevi1> Jac sorry what did you mean??
[22:26] <itrebal> O.o
[22:27] <itrebal> Flannel: I want to switch from kubuntu to ubuntu
[22:27] <Blaqlight> !pureubuntu
[22:27] <Flannel> itrebal: do you want to have kubuntu after installing ubuntu? or just ubuntu?
[22:27] <linxeh> itrebal: kubuntu and ubuntu are the same apart from some of the packages. you can mix and match as you please
[22:27] <Flannel> !puregnome | itrebal
[22:27] <DareDevi1> Jack Sorry what did you mean??
[22:27] <TiredWolf> DareDevi1: look at your private messages. you have one from ubottu. that's what he meant.
[22:27] <linxeh> itrebal: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[22:27] <TiredWolf> !tab | DareDevi1
[22:27] <itrebal> thanks
[22:27] <Jack_Sparrow> itrebal sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop and select it under options where you log in

[22:28] <TiredWolf> cwill747, as i said, it's a one :)
[22:28] <Blaqlight> lol screwed the command up again...
[22:28] <zvacet> itrebal :  http://psychocats.s465.sureserver.com/ubuntu/puregnome
[22:28] <Jack_Sparrow> DareDevi1 It means go check the hardware database for your specific tv card
[22:28] <l337ingDisorder> can anyone tell me a way to bring up the Shut Down/Log Out dialog with a command-line?
[22:28] <lopezmatias> solved
[22:28] <iqson716> Blaqlight:thx
[22:28] <lopezmatias> thx
[22:28] <l337ingDisorder> I'd like to set a hotkey to bring up the Log Out / Shut Down dialog

[22:28] <cwill747> !tv | DareDevi1
[22:29] <soundray> lopezmatias: I have one more thing to say to you. Will you read really carefully once more?
[22:29] <RivitingOne> How would I go about moving my home/xavier/.wine folder to a different partition? And would wine still work?
[22:30] <DareDevi1> ubottu: Bat could't solve my problem following the information given in that website
[22:30] <Flannel> RivitingOne: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome  except, instead of "home" do... just .wine
[22:30] <justin420> can anybody help me get file sharing working between a vista box and hardy heron? i can see and use a NAS device just fine; along with a xp machine.  the xp machine and vista machine can also share files. therefore i believe everything is setup just fine. i have a laptop with gutsy installed that can also file share with the vista box.
[22:30] <orangepeelbeef> RivitingOne you can mount your new partition at /home/xavier   but myou have to copy your stuff out ;)
[22:30] <lopezmatias> soundray yes
[22:30] <lopezmatias> i will
[22:30] <lopezmatias> what else?
[22:30] <Blaqlight> I completely give up, Im trying to download openbox, the newest one, and it finishes,,, after much waiting and hand-wringing, and the archive is corrupted..
[22:30] <iqson716> Blaqlight: it shrink my /home to 69 gig! It's ok?
[22:31] <soundray> lopezmatias: when you come to a channel like this to ask a question, it is VERY important to look at the answers carefully and answer back appropriately.
[22:32] <soundray> lopezmatias: otherwise all the users of the channel will get annoyed with you, and there are over a THOUSAND of them. Understood?
[22:32] <l337ingDisorder> anyone know about repartitioning a Vista drive using gparted??
[22:32] <Jack_Sparrow> lopezmatias Keep you responses on one line and try to avoid spamming the channel
[22:32] <Blaqlight> iqson716: whatever you want.
[22:32] <cwill747> !gparted
[22:32] <Blaqlight> iqson716: thats where your going to store a moajority of files and stuff so it should be atleast as big as /
[22:32] <cwill747> nvm that doesn't help
[22:32] <lopezmatias> ok
[22:32] <lopezmatias> and ok
[22:33] <soundray> lopezmatias: sometimes people come in here and pretend to be really stupid, just in order to annoy. You don't want to be mistaken for one of those people.
[22:33] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray DId you have a fix for people that have used the driver from the nvidia site and are stuck without a working res or 3d effects?
[22:33] <RivitingOne> screw it, ok, what is the best method for me to completely reformat my hard drive partition table prior to a clean reinstall?
[22:33] <justin420> l337ingDisorder: i used gparted to shrink my ntfs partition from vista to be able to install ubuntu
[22:33] <Blaqlight> !info gparted
[22:33] <lopezmatias> but does are trolls
[22:33] <lopezmatias> im not trollz
[22:34] <Jack_Sparrow> !enter > lopezmatias
[22:34] <Blaqlight> lopezmatias: you spelled trolls wrong :d
[22:34] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: no, sorry. I don't do NVidia at the moment
[22:34] <adrenaline> anybody else having issues with msn messenger today?
[22:34] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray I am writing a help for nv
[22:34] <soundray> lopezmatias: I was starting to believe you were one of them.
[22:34] <RivitingOne> blaqlight: I tried doing that while using the live cd but it wouldn't let me remove the filesystem partition.
[22:34] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: oh, wonderful
[22:34] <adrenaline> It works on my red hat box but dies in ubuntu
[22:35] <lopezmatias> soundray come on.. trollz is someone that come the other day and ask questino abou solaris jejeje
[22:35] <lopezmatias> im just a linux newbie
[22:35] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray I can get them back to a good res, just no 3d.. once they have used the driver from nvidia.  I need to find out how to blacklist it or somehow kill it off
[22:35] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: if someone came with that question, I would try to guide them back towards an nv installation
[22:35] <metheon> !gparted
[22:35] <Blaqlight> RivitingOne: it won't if your using the partition.
[22:35] <band4life> is it possibel to check my gmail account using Evolution?  and if so how do I set it up?
[22:35] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray that is where I am up to at this point
[22:36] <justin420> can anybody help me get file sharing working between my hardy heron and vista pc?
[22:36] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: I've never looked at that driver package closely. Is there no uninstall option?
[22:36] <zvacet> RivitingOne : select manual way and delete root partition and on that free space make reinstall is that what are you asked for
[22:36] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray we can continue this later when it is less busy.
[22:36] <RivitingOne> zvacet maybe lol
[22:36] <metheon> Jack_Sparrow, heard of private chats :p
[22:37] <zvacet> RivitingOne : you have separate home partition right
[22:37] <Jack_Sparrow> metheon Yes, actually, but I thought it would be rude for two ops to leave when things are busy
[22:37] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: I'd love to help, but as I say, I don't think I've much to contribute.
[22:37] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray np
[22:38] <RivitingOne> zvacet I'm not sure :/
[22:38] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray I consider you one of us..
[22:39] <Pupeno> How do you save an audio cd to hard disk to be able to make exact copies of it?
[22:39] <Jack_Sparrow> Pupeno HOw many times are you going to ask the same question and ignore the answer
[22:39] <zvacet> RivitingOne : cat /etc/fstab and paste it here with pastebin
[22:40] <Pupeno> Jack_Sparrow: I'm not ignoring the answers. There was no convincing answer. According to what I read, you can't really make iso images out of audio cds.
[22:40] <Jack_Sparrow> RivitingOne sudo apt-get install pastebinit  && cat /etc/fstab | pastebinit
[22:40] <ArtimusDeathhole> is there anyone here with experience in regards to partman-auto-raid?  I am looking for some assistance making a recipe
[22:41] <leachim6> Pupeno, you can make ISO images of any CD I think
[22:41] <Pupeno> leachim6: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=331717
[22:41] <leachim6> an ISO can contain any filesystem....
[22:41] <Pupeno> leachim6: does an audio cd contain a file system?
[22:41] <lopezmatias> lol
[22:42] <Jack_Sparrow> Pupeno that was the first I saw that you were trying to do audio cd's
[22:42] <mpsan>  Does anyone know what happened to MC midnight commander? apt-get does not find it.
[22:42] <Pupeno> Jack_Sparrow: what?
[22:42] <TiredWolf> Pupeno: no, well you could say it does since it obviously contains a list of tracks and where to find them, but not a filesystem in the common meaning
[22:42] <Jack_Sparrow> Pupeno YOu are correct, audio cds are not going to work like that
[22:43] <Pupeno> TiredWolf: what matters if it is a file system accoding to the iso specification.
[22:43]  * leachim6 was wrong
[22:43] <leachim6> :(
[22:43] <TiredWolf> Pupeno: which ISO specification?
[22:43] <gregge> I was trying to fix the mic by installing a different version of alsa, but it didn't work and it also killed audio in videos, apart from flash-videos for some weird reason. could someone help me fix it?
[22:43] <Pupeno> Jack_Sparrow: so, my question is, how do I save to HD an Audio CD for latter duplication (as an iso image doesn't seem to do it)?
[22:43] <Pupeno> TiredWolf: 	http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=331717
[22:44] <iqson716> I'm now using gparted and apply it's working now but dont show any act
[22:44] <iqson716> ?
[22:44] <TiredWolf> Pupeno: a so-called "iso" image of a CD is simply a byte-by-byte copy of the CD contents, if that's what you mean. it doesn't care at all what is contained in the CD.
[22:44] <RivitingOne> Jack_Sparrow & zvacet http://pastebin.com/f2e92e8d7
[22:44] <soundray> Pupeno: you can use abcde in conjunction with flac encoding and the mkcue utility to make lossless compressed archives from audio CDs
[22:45] <Pupeno> TiredWolf: have you read the link that I've sent? have you tried making an image of an audio cd with any software?
[22:45] <gregge> Hmm.. I killed pulseaudio, and all of a sudden the audio worked again
[22:45] <Pupeno> soundray: will the resulting CD have the same musicbrainz and freedb IDs?
[22:45] <Pupeno> soundray: I don't care about compresion.
[22:45] <soundray> Pupeno: yes (as those IDs are generated from the "cue sheet"
[22:45] <soundray> )
[22:45] <iqson716> Blaqlight: I'm now using gparted and apply it's working now but dont show any act! It may take a much time?
[22:46] <sebas8911> hi floks!
[22:46] <soundray> Pupeno: I'm sure you can bypass flac compression and use just wave files
[22:46] <band4life> is it possibel to check my gmail account using Evolution?  and if so how do I set it up?
[22:46] <Jack_Sparrow> iqson716 If you are resizing a partition it can take a great deal of time
[22:46] <sebas8911> I'm having a problem with dpkg --configure locales  it hangs forever... any idea ?
[22:47] <Jack_Sparrow> sebas8911 I saw a bug report on that..  dont remember where
[22:47] <zvacet> RivitingOne : you don´t have separate home you can make one http://psychocats.s465.sureserver.com/ubuntu/separatehome
[22:47] <sebas8911> Generatins locales .... en_AU.UTF-8....  100 % cpu
[22:47] <RivitingOne>  Jack_Sparrow http://pastebin.com/f2e92e8d7
[22:47] <sebas8911> Jack_Sparrow: any workaround ?
[22:47] <soundray> sebas8911: that must be bug #249340 biting you
[22:47] <Jack_Sparrow> RivitingOne I was not watching your question, I was just trying to give you an easier way to pastebin it
[22:47] <iqson716> Jack_Sparrow: I shrink 230 gig to 69 gig :S
[22:47] <Lifeisfunny> What's the retarded skip that happens about 5 seconds into the video, when playing a youtube that was saved from Firefox cache directory?
[22:48] <Jack_Sparrow> iqson716 then plan on it taking quite awhile
[22:48] <RivitingOne> Jack_Sparrow ok cool, thanks for the help. I needed it lol
[22:48] <sebas8911> soundray: thanks, I'll look into it.
[22:48] <Gnea> sebas8911: you have to kill the localedef a few times
[22:48] <Jack_Sparrow> RivitingOne What was the original question?
[22:48] <sebas8911> Gnea: yes.
[22:49] <ariqs> my ati 9800 pro is running quite hot, and I want to underclock it so it doesn't heat my room up
[22:49] <ArtimusDeathhole> so.  no one here with any info on partman raid recipies ?
[22:49] <Gnea> sebas8911: had the same problem the other day
[22:49] <ariqs> in windows, I had software I could use to underclock/overclock it, is this possible in linux?
[22:49] <zvacet> Jack_Sparrow : he asked if he have separate home partition
[22:49] <Jack_Sparrow> zvacet thanks, so what was the hangup?
[22:49] <sebas8911> Gnea: ok. did you find a solution?
[22:50] <RivitingOne> Jack_Sparrow well, it has evolved. I'm trying to figure out if I need to reinstall from scratch or not. I have a 55gig partition I can't use atm.
[22:50] <Gnea> sebas8911: yeah, i killed localedef everytime something locked up
[22:50] <RivitingOne> Says I don't have permission
[22:50] <Jack_Sparrow> RivitingOne sudo apt-get install pastebinit  && cp /etc/fstab ~/Desktop/Partition_Layout.txt && sudo fdisk -l >> ~/Desktop/Partition_Layout.txt && cat /boot/grub/menu.lst >> ~/Desktop/Partition_Layout.txt && lsb_release -a >> ~/Desktop/Partition_Layout.txt && cat /home/$USER/Desktop/Partition_Layout.txt | pastebinit  (Provide Pastebin link in channel)
[22:50] <Gnea> sebas8911: eventually it finished, i rebooted, logged in and ran sudo apt-get -f install and everything finished up and has been working fine ever since
[22:50] <zvacet> Jack_Sparrow : he want to reinstall and I asked if he have separate home to not delete all files
[22:50] <iqson716> Jack_Sparrow: ok
[22:51] <scarface88> How do I get syncml woirking  t ian sync contacts betwen my iphone and evolution?
[22:51] <Jack_Sparrow> zvacet great, sounds like you have it handled
[22:51] <Gnea> sebas8911: ultimately, the problem is that it needs the kernel from the new distribution in order to generate the locales
[22:51] <Jack_Sparrow> zvacet Nudge me if you run into a problem
[22:51] <Gnea> sebas8911: but you can't reboot to it until all of the packages have been processed
[22:51] <RivitingOne> http://pastebin.com/f485d5b59
[22:51] <zvacet> Jack_Sparrow : be sure I will
[22:51] <Lifeisfunny> well dang, I replayed my video and it played like a charm.     I think my computer plays tricks on me at times.
[22:52] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: you certainly ask a leap of faith from the not-so-proficient shell user there ;)
[22:52] <zippytech> i had an up grade to 8.04 fail and had to restart how can i restart the upgrade with loosing my stuff
[22:52] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray cut and paste...  shouldnt be too hard
[22:53] <ndo> guys, ive got a trouble that i cant solve already for quite a view time. when i boot up my linux, i get "grub>" prompt, how can i fix it?
[22:53]  * Lifeisfunny doesn't like big pauses after his post,  I think it's as if I'm being psycho analyzed or something.
[22:53] <Lifeisfunny> see?
[22:53] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: I like to tell users they shouldn't blindly copy and paste everything they get handed on IRC. I know you're trustworthy, but not everyone knows that.
[22:53] <Jack_Sparrow> RivitingOne What partition cant you use?
[22:54] <wipf1337> QUESTION: Is there a way to have a flexible keyword or typing authentication in ubuntu?
[22:54] <zvacet> Jack_Sparrow : can you take a look on http://pastebin.com/f485d5b59
[22:54] <metheon> anyone know a nice piece of software that helps you create a budget and really nothing more than that?
[22:54] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray agreed, I look carefully at everything people put in here for people to paste.
[22:54] <Flannel> wipf1337: Most likely.  Although not necessarily sure what you mean.
[22:54] <soundray> wipf1337: can you elaborate what you mean? What's the difference to a password?
[22:55] <Blaqlight> does anyone know just how big openbox-<IP_ADDRESS> is?
[22:55] <chuck-> does anyone use ubuntu to playback HD files using mythTV?
[22:55] <RivitingOne> Jack_Sparrow /Sda2
[22:55] <Jack_Sparrow> metheon there is a quicken clone or quicken will run under wine
[22:55] <wipf1337> i mean, not always  the same password, words from a certain text or other semantics from your typing
[22:55] <metheon> ill check it out, thanks jack
[22:55] <soundray> !info gnucash | metheon
[22:55] <Blaqlight> i get 828,190 bytes but tar is claiming its only half the file.
[22:55] <band4life> is it possibel to check my gmail account using Evolution?  and if so how do I set it up?
[22:56] <CartoonCat> Hello all. This is odd, I rebooted my ubuntu box last night and my display 'broke'. I had to crtl alt backspace to drop to a term to reboot and use the repair mode. After using 'xfix' it boots fine, then, enabled the nvidia drivers, I can now only get 640x480 mode?? Anyone seen this?
[22:56] <metheon> thx soundray
[22:56] <Blaqlight> !info openbox
[22:56] <pete_> how would i find my gateway ip (router)
[22:56] <soundray> metheon: although for a basic budget a spreadsheet would probably be most appropriate
[22:56] <emet> has anyone used gnash lately?
[22:56] <CartoonCat> pete_, if you have dhcp nad obtained a address, ifconfig
[22:56] <henux> I followed the instructions to configure Wacom tablet into my Ubuntu. Something is wrong; pressure sensitivity is not working on stylus head, but it is working in the eraser head, when using GIMP. Any ideas??
[22:56] <ariqs> I have a video card I want to underclock because it runs so hot. in windows, I had software I could use to underclock/overclock it, is this possible in linux?
[22:56] <Jack_Sparrow> RivitingOne it is a bit odd to have sda2 use cylinders that are out past the end of your extended partition.  HAve you tried to manuall mount it
[22:56] <RivitingOne> Jack_sparrow wait, somethings wierd.
[22:56] <kane> Hi
[22:56] <band4life> can anyone see me?
[22:57] <kane> Can i access windows files using Ubuntu
[22:57] <henux> Yes
[22:57] <Gnea> !hi | band4life
[22:57] <Blaqlight> band4life: nope
[22:57] <band4life> darn
[22:57] <CartoonCat> kane, ive had no issues with my usb ntfs drives
[22:57] <henux> kane: Just mount the Windows partition to your Ubuntu.
[22:57] <Jack_Sparrow> kane yes
[22:57] <henux> I followed the instructions to configure Wacom tablet into my Ubuntu. Something is wrong; pressure sensitivity is not working on stylus head, but it is working in the eraser head, when using GIMP. Any ideas??
[22:57] <kane> Henux how can i do that
[22:57] <henux> kane: use mount command
[22:57] <Gnea> !repeat | henux
[22:57] <RivitingOne> Jack_Sparrow: that 60 gig is showing up as media but I don't have anything connected.
[22:57] <kane> When i click file system the window is not there
[22:58] <band4life> does anyone know how to setup evolution to check gmail?
[22:58] <RivitingOne> Jack_Sparrow how do I mount manually? I don't even see it now that I am looking
[22:58] <metheon> soundray, yeah you might be right.. with the spreadsheet part.
[22:58] <henux> kane: Do you know what is the partition your Windows HD uses?
[22:58] <kane> i think
[22:58] <zvacet> band4life : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=231724&highlight=evolution+gmail
[22:58] <kane> nope
[22:58] <Gnea> band4life: http://tuxicity.wordpress.com/2007/03/08/howto-set-up-gmail-in-evolution-gnomes-mail-client-and-organizer/
[22:59] <band4life> thankyou very much, I appreciate your help.
[22:59] <henux> kane: sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /path/to/device /mnt/windows
[22:59] <BrandonS> I have a problem where Mozilla Firefox and Four-in-a-row randomly closes for no reason.
[22:59] <soundray> metheon: gnucash on the other hand implements proper accounting methodology, so you'll learn a transferrable skill.
[22:59] <zvacet> band4life : yw
[22:59] <Jack_Sparrow> RivitingOne sudo mkdir /media/techsupport && sudo mount /dev/sda2 /media/techsupport
[22:59] <henux> kane: sudo fdisk -l
[23:00] <henux> kane: See where is your Windows partition located in
[23:00] <henux> kane: see the Device tab in there
[23:00] <kane> ok in cmd or terminal
[23:00] <band4life> zvacet what is yw?
[23:00] <henux> kane: terminal
[23:00] <band4life> oh

[23:00] <band4life> lol
[23:00] <Gnea> :)
[23:00] <henux> kane: Can I PM you?
[23:00] <hey`> I am sick of techie stuff.
[23:00] <kane> yeah why not
[23:00] <zvacet> band4life :  :)
[23:00] <hey`> I'm more like an artist guy.
[23:00] <Sonderblade> how do you get xorg to use the linux 2.6.24 kernel?
[23:00] <freeflowcauvery> aren't we all
[23:01] <Blaqlight> lol and then all at once..
[23:01] <hey`> tho I won't leave ubuntu, but I won't mock with details anymore
[23:01] <metheon> soundray, i guess what i wanna do is a) make sure i deposit the correct amount of money to my budget account and b) monitor my expenses and possibly create some sort of tendency char based upon groups of expenses, say food, hardware, booze etc
[23:01] <zaputr> у кого-нить в гноме коньки на автозапуске работают?
[23:01] <soundray> hey`: take your canvas and palette and take to the outdoors
[23:01] <Jack_Sparrow> hey` This is a support channel for ubuntu..
[23:01] <hey`> :(
[23:01] <Swian> yeah
[23:01]  * hey` opens up the gimp
[23:01] <R0b0t1> One of my "friends" sent me to a shock site that opens numerous windows filled with gay porn. It quickly swamped firefox, and while firefox is open, I can't do anything due to lag. Is there any way I could completely wipe firefox's settings and reinstall?
[23:01] <zvacet> !ru | zaputr
[23:02] <Z_Man> R0b0t1, rofl
[23:02] <Swian> anyone done this theme on ubuntu? http://sourceforge.net/project/platformdownload.php?group_id=204373
[23:02] <Shujah> metheon, you can do that easily in gnu0cash
[23:02] <zaputr> How can i set conky to autostart?
[23:02] <Gnea> R0b0t1: just remove all of the files in your cache before restarting
[23:02] <R0b0t1> Where is the said cache?
[23:03] <soundray> metheon: gnucash definitely has a learning curve, but it sounds like you would benefit immensely from doing your budget properly, as it were.
[23:03] <unop> R0b0t1,  move ~/.mozilla/firefox to ~/.mozilla/firefox.bak
[23:03] <Z_Man> Swian, I tried once, it never worked too well for me
[23:03] <R0b0t1> No such file
[23:03] <Gnea> R0b0t1: ~/.mozilla/firefox/<profile>/Cache/
[23:03] <unop> R0b0t1, at a terminal.   mv ~/.mozilla/firefox{,.bak}
[23:04] <R0b0t1> unop and just delete it?
[23:04] <Sonderblade> i installed the linux-image-2.6.24 package, shouldn't dpkg automatically take care of making that imagethe default?
[23:04] <Gnea> R0b0t1: i'd do it like this:  find ~/.mozilla/firefox/<profile>/Cache/ -type -f -exec rm -f {}
[23:04] <Gnea> oop
[23:04] <Gnea> R0b0t1: i'd do it like this:  find ~/.mozilla/firefox/<profile>/Cache/ -type -f -exec rm -f {} \;
[23:04] <unop> R0b0t1, well don't delete it just yet, you might want to retrieve things like bookmarks, etc later
[23:04] <Jack_Sparrow> R0b0t1 You might try disconnecting from the internet opening ff and purging the cache and personal stuff
[23:05] <soundray> Sonderblade: it ensures that next time you boot, you'll boot to the new kernel.
[23:05] <R0b0t1> Jack_Sparrow: Thanks
[23:05] <Jack_Sparrow> R0b0t1 If nothing else you can then save your bookmarks
[23:05] <RivitingOne> Jack_Sparrow ok, this may be a coincidence but: look at this screenshot. http://img183.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshot1lv4.png
[23:05] <Gnea> R0b0t1: and that should be -type f
[23:05] <Sonderblade> soundray: it doesnt for me
[23:05] <RivitingOne> Jack_Sparrow It looks like my partition is showing up as media
[23:06] <R0b0t1> It willl
[23:06] <R0b0t1> I have three partitions, they all show up as drives.
[23:06] <Z_Man> R0b0t1, isnt that what every OS does?
[23:06] <soundray> Sonderblade: the post-installation script normally calls update-grub. You could call 'sudo update-grub' manually and see if it reports a problem.
[23:06] <R0b0t1> That I've seen, yes
[23:06] <Z_Man> haha. yeah.\
[23:07] <RivitingOne> oh, well then ... lol
[23:07] <Gnea> RivitingOne: unless they're specifically set to a certain partition, that's exactly what will happen
[23:07] <R0b0t1> Yes, lol.
[23:07] <R0b0t1> Hopefully, if I disconn from the internet, I should be able to open up FF but nothing will load...   Please keep the room family friendly.
[23:08] <R0b0t1> KK, well, bye... I hope this works... Uhm, my parents are in the room.
[23:10] <R0b0t1> :-\
[23:10] <CartoonCat> mmm, ok looks like this is related to not being able to detect my monitor correctly (as the nvidia drivers are loading and working)
[23:10] <soundray> Sonderblade: I think there is a maximum number of entries, beyond which update-grub won't add any more. Can't find where that is set right now.
[23:10] <pvh_sa> heya... i've got ubuntu 8.04 here - HP LaserJet 1010 attached via usb - i'd like to share it to the windows (XP and Vista) PCs here, but then they look for the drivers from the server - anyone know how to set that up?
[23:10] <CartoonCat> is there a (simple) way to force specific monitor settings with out mucking with the xorg.conf file?
[23:11] <zvacet> soundray : in menu list howmany =number
[23:11] <getoo> any cool app for converting iso to mp4
[23:11] <Jack_Sparrow> CartoonCat Easiest to manually edit xorg.conf
[23:11] <CartoonCat> pvh_sa, yes, use the windows driver pack from the website, while installing tell it that its a network printer
[23:11] <soundray> zvacet: thanks -- he's gone now
[23:11] <indra> good morning i can't install java mozzila plugin
[23:11] <Z_Man> mp4?
[23:11] <getoo> mpeg4
[23:11] <getoo> ;;)
[23:11] <CartoonCat> Jack_Sparrow, not when the file is basicly empty, gotta look up tons of things i just can not remember
[23:11] <Z_Man> i mean, iso to mp4? that's not even the same type of file
[23:11] <soundray> zvacet: default is 'all', so that wouldn't have been the problem anyway
[23:12] <indra> E: Package j2re1.4-mozilla-plugin has no installation candidate
[23:12] <Jack_Sparrow> CartoonCat YOu want my basic monitor config to start with..  nvidia 6600 here
[23:12] <RivitingOne> Jack_Sparrow ok, so why can't I access it? Do I need to delete and redo the partition with a different mount point?
[23:12] <getoo> k then iso to avi && avi to mpeg4
[23:12] <Z_Man> are you talking about encoding a DVD movie (which is in the form of an ISO) to an MP4?
[23:12] <pvh_sa> CartoonCat: windows driver pack?
[23:12] <soundray> CartoonCat: have you tried 'gksudo displayconfig-gtk'?
[23:12] <CartoonCat> Jack_Sparrow, that could help, i always forget one section or another and the order they go in, etc =\
[23:12] <indra> i how can i install that plugin
[23:12] <getoo> Z_Man: that is correct
[23:12] <getoo> sorry
[23:13] <Jack_Sparrow> RivitingOne SOunds like you need to reqork permissions on it...  briefly try gksudo nautilus and try to write something there
[23:13] <pvh_sa> CartoonCat: oh, i see... basically use IPP
[23:13] <indra> how can i install that plugin
[23:13] <Z_Man> Handbrake works. but I can't remember if they have handbrake for linux
[23:13] <zvacet> soundray :  howmany=all   secon line  howmany=7  and below that howmany=all
[23:13] <alraune> !java |indra
[23:14] <Z_Man> they do. getoo: http://handbrake.fr/
[23:14] <CartoonCat> pvh_sa, no, you should be able to get it with windows network printing support
[23:14] <getoo> thanx Z_Man
[23:14] <zvacet> soundray : so you can not add 8 for example
[23:14] <Jack_Sparrow> CartoonCat http://paste.ubuntu.com/34552/
[23:14] <freeflowcauvery> sorry to interrupt, but what's indra?
[23:14] <CartoonCat> you jsut pre-install the driver, then tell it that its a network printer instead of local and get ot the same place as using the wizard (that pulls the drivers from the print server)
[23:14] <soundray> zvacet: the first two are commented with two #s, so they will be ignored (they are just examples)
[23:15] <CartoonCat> Jack_Sparrow, ty
[23:15] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[23:15] <Z_Man> getoo, btw, i dont think it will work with copy protected DVDs. but i'm not sure
[23:16] <AndyB> If someone is logged into my box via SSH is there any way to kick them off?
[23:16] <RivitingOne> Jack_Sparrow That worked! I can access it now.
[23:16] <zvacet> soundray : you are right
[23:16] <Z_Man> andyb, sure there is.
[23:16] <Jack_Sparrow> RivitingOne great, get out of there.
[23:16] <Z_Man> shut off the box
[23:16] <CartoonCat> Jack_Sparrow, mm, you saying i ONLY need to add a monitor section to the config? ifso then my backup should work fine if i only take that section
[23:16] <Z_Man> or kill ssh
[23:16] <genii> AndyB: kill the process id of the shell they are using
[23:16] <soundray> !info k9copy | getoo
[23:16] <AndyB> Z_Man lol its not that important. Just my mate is logged in and i want to mess with him by kicking him off
[23:17] <Z_Man> aaah... haha ok
[23:17] <AndyB> If i changed the password for the account he is using would that work?
[23:17] <RivitingOne> Jack_Sparrow Aye aye captain! THANKS!!!
[23:17] <Jack_Sparrow> CartoonCat make a backup of your existing, and add my monitor section after you edit it for your v/h and give it a try
[23:17] <soundray> CartoonCat:  'gksudo displayconfig-gtk' will be even easier
[23:17] <genii> AndyB: No
[23:17] <Z_Man> no, he'll stay logged on
[23:17] <Aeamus> w00t, win
[23:17] <Odd-rationale> AndyB: that's not nice....
[23:17] <Odd-rationale> ;)
[23:17] <R0b0t1> Meh ff is back in black
[23:17] <CartoonCat> AndyB, set your router to allow him about 1byte/s of bandwidth ;-)
[23:17] <Jack_Sparrow> RivitingOne LEt me see if we can fix the permissions on that partition
[23:17] <AndyB> Hehe okay
[23:18] <RivitingOne> I changed them so that root and Xavier (me) can access and read/write files and run programs
[23:18] <mktwist_> hi, anybody here with a Vostro 1510? I have some trouble with the fan after flashing thebios from A06 to A10
[23:18] <Jack_Sparrow> RivitingOne So you got it done.. cool
[23:18] <Jack_Sparrow> RivitingOne First, check the ownership: Open a terminal and type cd /media ...then type... ls -la ...then, do the following, replacing “yourPartition” with the name of the partition (e.g. /sdb1)... sudo chown -R username:username /media/yourPartition  (On a live system you must create a user name first) followed by... sudo chmod -R 755 /media/yourPartition ... Finally, check to see if it worked by doing another ls -la to ver
[23:18] <Jack_Sparrow> ify the permissions are set
[23:19] <amenado> unbelievable, linuxworld signup for free pass uses microsoft JScript and it failed..geesh  see for yourself at linuxworldexpo.com
[23:19] <Odd-rationale> AndyB: no, seriously. system admins should never abuse their power.  The question I have now (Should be an easy one) is this. Can I drag and drop my .wine folder into my new partition without breaking the program? That way my virtual C: will be on the partition with all the space?
[23:20] <R0b0t1> Jack_Sparrow: Yes :-D
[23:21] <jzsmith> Where can I learn more about $()?
[23:21] <Jack_Sparrow> R0b0t1 good to know, I thought it would be easier than the other
[23:21] <soundray> jzsmith: it's one of my favorites, ask me
[23:21] <R0b0t1> 'Tis :D
[23:21] <unop> jzsmith, #bash
[23:21] <cyrano> I connect my hardy heron to an lcd tv through RGB. When i left home it worked. later same day it doesnt... i haven't changed any config. the thing is that it detects mys usplash, and the text displayed at the start. But as soon as x starts the lcd tv says "no signal. Can anyone help?
[23:21] <jzsmith> unop, oh. Thanks.
[23:21] <Jack_Sparrow> RivitingOne I would not have helped if I know you were a wino..
[23:22] <soundray> #bash always frightens me
[23:22] <unop> jzsmith, ask greybot about !$()
[23:22] <Jack_Sparrow> RivitingOne I can only assume it WILL break something and need to be reconfigured
[23:23] <RivitingOne> Jack_Sparrow lol ok, I'll play around. Should just be trial and error now that I can access the partition. Thanks again

[23:28] <histo> Ughh. ubuntu won't even boot on my other machine.
[23:28] <Mortuis> Under System->Preferences->Removable Drives and Media Preferences, you used to be able to set a default application for a media device like an iPod.  That option doesn't appear to be there anymore in 8.04, does anyone know how to set it up so Amarok will open automatically when I plug my iPod in?
[23:28] <Gnea> histo: what other machine?
[23:28] <soundray> debCarlos: oh no, not you again
[23:28] <histo> Can't even check the cd for defects that bombs
[23:28] <Odd-rationale> histo: the operating system? of the livecd? have you tried the alternative cd?
[23:29] <soundray> debCarlos: (just kidding)
[23:29] <histo> Gnea: I have a hp xw8200 workstation i'm trying to install on.
[23:29] <histo> Odd-rationale: livecd
[23:29] <debCarlos> soundray: lol
[23:29] <Jack_Sparrow> histo for hp or dell always burn very slow 4x if possible
[23:29] <histo> Gnea: Jack_Sparrow Yeah I tried at 9x low as I can go
[23:29] <Odd-rationale> histo: often the alternative cd supports more hardware. see !alternative
[23:30] <histo> I'm sure its a burn issue
[23:30] <histo> Odd-rationale: it doens't support more hardware just doens't load X

[23:30] <CartoonCat> Jack_Sparrow, ty ty, back to a usable resolution, some day ill need to fill in the correct values for this monitor, since they can not be detected for some strange reason

[23:31] <cyrano> I connect my hardy heron to an lcd tv through RGB.

[23:31] <Mortuis> legend2440: Would that be the music player option?
[23:31] <CorpseFeeder> how do I fix my fonts problem in google earth? My problem is not the "small text" issue most people seem to have.... my problem is there is no text at all - just blank solid rectangles where there should be text...
[23:31] <Jack_Sparrow> CartoonCat glad you got a working res.  monitor detection has been a problem
[23:31] <afallenhope> anyone know how to add a port range to ufw? 8000 to 8009?
[23:32] <legend2440> Mortuis: yes but nit sure if Amarok is an option. i dont have it installed
[23:32] <soundray> solexious: there is a --max-depth option -- is that what you want?
[23:32] <solexious> soundray, aaaa sounds right
[23:32] <solexious> soundray, thank you
[23:32] <soundray> solexious: haven't tried, just found it in man du
[23:32] <Mortuis> legend2440: It's saying "No applications found" :-(
[23:33] <Mortuis> I'll have to poke around, see where it's looking for that information.
[23:33] <debCarlos> Mortuis: Just alt+f2 and write gnome-volume-properties
[23:33] <Booted> is there a way to see and control my ubuntu desktop on my windows machine exactly the way it is on the ubuntu machine?
[23:33] <huzard> bonsoir
[23:33] <unop> Booted, yea, using vnc/vino
[23:34] <Mortuis> debCarlos: I checked there, there doesn't seem to be an option for media devices like an iPod anymore.
[23:34] <unop> huzard, good evening
[23:34] <Booted> unop: vnc doesn't show exact copy, it shows some strange things
[23:34] <debCarlos> Booted: You have to have a VNC sever in the Ubuntu one and UltraVNC viewer on the Windows one :)
[23:34] <huzard> trompé de chan
[23:34] <soundray> unop: may I pm you?
[23:34] <histo> wow okay it eventually came up. I thought the cd was bad it was dumping to busybox but it still loaded.
[23:35] <unop> Booted, yea, that's because vnc uses TWM by default instead of gnome -- you can configure it to use gnome instead
[23:35] <unop> soundray, sure
[23:35] <JoeL^> alguien que hable español ?

[23:35] <histo> Alright whats the current status of 64bit vs. 32bit. I just realized this machine has dual xeon 64bit cpus 3.2ghz.  I need to run flash wine etc..on it.  Are these things working with 64bit?
[23:35] <Booted> unop: I have to configure the serve or the client?
[23:35] <debCarlos> JoeL^: Ve a #ubuntu-es, este es el canal de ingles
[23:35] <juano_> juano__
[23:36] <Guest31314> heloo!!!
[23:36] <robbo> ^
[23:36] <JoeL^> ‡debCarlos‡ gracias ;)
[23:36] <unop> Booted, the VNC server
[23:36] <Mortuis> debCarlos: If it's a matter of hunting information, don't bother. My wife is telling me to come watch the movie, I can hunt on my own now that I know to look in Nautilus. I was just hoping someone knew.
[23:36] <Booted> unop: how do I ?
[23:36] <Mortuis> Thanks everyone.
[23:36] <Casablanca> I have a small issue  with media playback being very slow with totem, after restricted ffmpeg is installed
[23:37] <solexious> soundray, that got it, must have read past it
[23:37] <tonohono> histo: Yes, they work absolutely fine~
[23:37] <Casablanca> anyody?
[23:37] <debCarlos> Mortuis: Ok :)
[23:38] <Booted> unop: I see 'twm' in the xstartup file, what do I replace it with?
[23:38] <histo> tonohono: ty
[23:38] <histo> Is there a way to tell if my cpus support kernel virtualation?   I'm currently on the 32bit live cd.
[23:39] <Casablanca> no one with playback issues on Totem?
[23:39] <Rhys79> Hey, anyone have any experience with installing Ubuntu to a software Raid1 array???
[23:39] <adrenaline> Nope
[23:39] <Casablanca> mine play back slowly
[23:39] <adamb_> Anyone know of an alternative to pidgin?  my pigdin keeps spiking cpu.
[23:39] <adrenaline> Casablanca, try using hdparm
[23:40] <Casablanca> is that via terminal? or a proggie?
[23:40] <adrenaline> I forgot the actual syntac but it is something like this
[23:40] <unop> Booted, i believe the gnome DE has vino installed by default -- if that's the case, then these here should help you.  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=266981
[23:40] <adrenaline> hdparm /dev/cdrom -d0 on
[23:40] <debCarlos> adrenaline: What does that do?
[23:40] <adac> How can I disable updatedb or remove it?
[23:40] <adrenaline> Makes the dvd priority
[23:40] <Booted> unop: I am using kde+vnc4server
[23:40] <histo> adac: it doens't run unless you invoke it.
[23:40] <adrenaline> or anything in the cdrom drive
[23:40] <debCarlos> !find updatedb
[23:41] <adac> histo: by default?
[23:41] <georgy_28>  Rhys79 : http://users.piuha.net/martti/comp/ubuntu/en/raid.html
[23:41] <Casablanca> I am not playing via the cd drive
[23:41] <adrenaline> I found it to on the FAQ's of xine
[23:41] <Casablanca> its a family video i copied to the desktop
[23:41] <adrenaline> hmmm
[23:41] <Casablanca> works fine in windows. but linux is something new.
[23:41] <unop> Booted, i am not so sure then .. a quick google for "vnc kde howto" should give you some leads
[23:41] <DozedOnLinux> Casablanca:  try different codec
[23:42] <adrenaline> Casablanca, do you have VLC by chance?
[23:42] <Casablanca> no..
[23:42] <Casablanca> let me apt-get it
[23:42] <adac> histo: Is there something else that may is running in the background and makes an index of my hard disk by default installation?
[23:42] <DozedOnLinux> Casablanca: VLC works for quite a few formats
[23:42] <adrenaline> Casablanca, you will like vlc better anyway
[23:42] <adrenaline> no codec issues
[23:42] <histo> adac: you can use top and see what is running. I beleive updatedb is set for cron not sure
[23:42] <histo> !cron > adac
[23:43] <Casablanca> ok... waiting for it to install.
[23:43] <adrenaline> remember to start it as a user and not root Casablanca
[23:43] <adac> histo: when I try to call crontab -l even for root than it says no crontab is installed...so it should be fine or not?
[23:43] <Booted> unop: what do I put instead of twm& if I have kde?
[23:43] <buu> Oh man, this is spectacular.
[23:44] <Casablanca> what would happen if I start it as sudo?
[23:44] <buu> If I type in a URI in firefox that looks like "bar.com/foo" it errors out and tells me it can't load "bar.comfoo"
[23:44] <Rhys79> georgy_28  That explains it, I've been trying to do it from the live CD installer, which doesn't give you the option of doing raid.  Looks like I need to download and burn the alternate CD to install from to get raid working.  Also, I'm using Desktop, not Server, is that an issue??
[23:44] <Flannel> buu: are you sure you're using slashes and not backslashes?
[23:45] <DozedOnLinux> Casablanca: one VLC is installed, you can right click on file, choose properties, then select Open With, once you know it plays well, and it will use it every time thereafter.
[23:45] <Ahmuck> hi.  there appears to be no more icon to change the video card and monitor ... how is that done now in hardy?
[23:45] <Casablanca> it works
[23:45] <unop> Booted, i am not sure about that :)
[23:45] <Casablanca> thanks
[23:45] <cwill747> buu, are you using greasemonkey at all?
[23:45] <Booted> unop: well, what does twm stand for?
[23:45] <georgy_28> Rhys79,  : with the alternate cd you can install a desktop version
[23:45] <Casablanca> so remove totem since vlc is there now?
[23:46] <DozedOnLinux> Casablanca:  totem covers other formats to , prob not advisable to remove it
[23:46] <unop> Booted,  "the window manager" i guess
[23:46] <buu> Flannel: ...
[23:46] <cyrano> I connect my hardy heron to an lcd tv through RGB. When i left home it worked. later same day it doesnt... i haven't changed any config. the thing is that it detects mys usplash, and the text displayed at the start. But as soon as x starts the lcd tv says "no signal. Can anyone help?
[23:46] <buu> cwill747: Nope, just firebug.
[23:46] <catfacts> what version of ubunt should i use to install on a power pc mac?
[23:46] <lakitu> are "window managers" desktop/workspace switchers?
[23:46] <bmarley13> i'm looking for a good dock program... something similar to macosx, kind of like kooldock, but for gnome. any suggestions?
[23:46] <catfacts> id like a server but it doesnt have to be server version
[23:46] <catfacts> bmarley13: awn
[23:46] <selig5> Tom's window manager
[23:46] <catfacts> requires compiz tho
[23:46] <Rhys79> Alrighty, thanks, that's what I needed.  Off to download ANOTHER cd.  Started off with Kubuntu to check out KDE4, didn't like it, went back to Ubuntu, but the LiveCD won't do soft raid on install... On to the third one...
[23:46] <Casablanca> hey how do I know if someone is PM 'd me when using terminal as IRC client?
[23:47] <bmarley13> catfacts i'm running compiz
[23:47] <catfacts> good get AWN
[23:47] <catfacts> avant window navigator
[23:47] <cwill747> Casablanca, what app are you using?
[23:47] <catfacts> still have to build from svn but it is realativly easy
[23:47] <Casablanca> irssi
[23:47] <cwill747> !enter | catfacts
[23:47] <alraune>  Casablanca: how use terminal as irc client ?
[23:47] <Casablanca> no... how...
[23:47] <bmarley13> catfacts, how do i go about getting it?
[23:47] <Flannel> catfacts: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/releases/8.04.1/release/
[23:47] <Casablanca> how to check if someone private mesg. me
[23:48] <catfacts> bmarley13: let me look it up
[23:48] <Odd-rationale> Casablanca: you should see a new window.
[23:48] <cwill747> Casablanca, the username will be turned yellow i believe, that's what happens to me
[23:48] <Casablanca> ok...
[23:48] <debCarlos> !awn
[23:48] <cwill747> Casablanca, oh yeah, a new window will come up if they pm you
[23:48] <histo> Probably a stupid question but I wasn't expecting this machine to be 64bit. Is there a way to install 64bit from the 32bit cd?
[23:48] <Casablanca> thanks!
[23:48] <Booted> unop: solved! there has to be "startkde" instead of "twm" =)))
[23:48] <alraune>  Casablanca: irssi is a client, not the terminal... , should see it in the top (new TAB)
[23:48] <cwill747> Casablanca, you can navigate to this window by typing in /window next
[23:49] <Odd-rationale> or alt+number
[23:49] <catfacts> bmarley13: http://wiki.awn-project.org/Installation
[23:49] <metheon> question: what is the ubuntu font called?
[23:49] <lakitu> what are the type of packages that let me switch between workspaces, (all fancypants)?
[23:49] <Casablanca> I am back
[23:49] <bmarley13> catfacts, thanks.
[23:49] <catfacts> bmarley13: good news they now have precompiled verson
[23:49] <adrenaline> Casablanca, did vlc work?
[23:49] <KenBW2> I've put a load of files on an MTP Media Player, but not in the MTP folder. In Ubuntu I can see them, but Vista only shows the contents of the MTPMEDIA folder. How can i fix this?
[23:49] <catfacts> go to hte bottom where they hav all the download types
[23:49] <Casablanca> ok thanks guys. I am off to install compiz
[23:50] <catfacts> bmarley13: or just do a " sudo apt-get install avant-window-navigator

[23:54] <adrenaline> amsn or kopete
[23:54] <addchild314> My system hangs right before the login screen... and nothing seems to be able to fix it
[23:54] <rustychicken> DozedOnLinux: copy that, thanks!

[23:58] <DozedOnLinux> Ahmuck: : in terminal > displayconfig-gtk      or if you have nvidia >   nvidia-settings
[23:58] <atallicus> I thought something with my fluxbox session broke it, but it seems the last update people have been having problems
[23:58] <johnJe_> hello, which kernel does ubuntu 8.04 use?
[23:58] <adrenaline> johnJe, uname -r will tell you
[23:59] <DozedOnLinux> c1rcuit:  ok, type this in terminal find out what model > sudo lshw -C network
[23:59] <addchild314> yeah, seems to be pretty widespread, and people are fixing it by wiping and reinstalling, but i really dont want to do that
[23:59] <alraune>  johnJe_: uname -r / uname -a
[23:59] <konqi> hi guys, after upgrading from gutsy to hardy there are some Problems: first of all (and this is annoying) whether update-notifier nor synaptics are able to update packages (security updates are announced but installation stops quietly after reading package information)
[23:59] <johnJe_> thx
[23:59] <johnJe_> uname -r works
[23:59] <adrenaline> cool johnJe
[23:59] <bluefox83> ok, for some reason when i try to launch a new screen session on my home server it wont create /var/run/screen/ so i made it myself using sudo, i also changed the group and owner status, how do i set the permissions number so i can use it?
[23:59] <c1rcuit> it says command not found
