[13:10] <Pendulum> TheMuso: question I've never thought to ask, but can Orca read the schedule on Summit?
[13:16] <AlanBell> technically it can, but it isn't a nice layout
[13:17] <AlanBell> importing the ical feed to a calendar application is probably a better way to read it
[13:17] <Pendulum> *nods*
[13:19]  * Pendulum just got an e-mail from someone asking if they were allowed to participate even though they don't code and I realised I had no idea whether the schedule was going to be readable if they want to look for other interesting sessions or not
[13:23] <AlanBell> also http://summit.ubuntu.com/mobile/
[13:23] <AlanBell> might be useful
[13:24] <AlanBell> summit really could do with a few "simple list" type views
[22:48] <TheMuso> Pendulum: With some difficulty. Tables are always a challenge.
[22:49] <Pendulum> is the ical export any more useful?
[23:11] <Fudge> anyone ever experienced with lucid where the installer does not want to progress past the keyboard layout screen


[10:24] <rainrunner87> Anyone know anything about screenlock under Beryl causing a logout?

[10:26] <bruenig> installation of flash is more than a bit different, you either need to chroot or install the 32 bit firefox manually including necessary 32 libs

[10:27] <bruenig> !howdy | twilight__
[10:27] <ubotu> twilight__: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[10:27] <GeekChick|> hammedhaaret, you would need the key then. "sudo hcitool key <blah>"
[10:27] <ttjl_> bruenig, I used this command: chmod +x twonkymedia-i386-glib-2.2.5.sh && ./twonkymedia-i386-glib-2.2.5.sh

[10:28] <ezE> I'm such a noob

[10:28] <bruenig> ttjl_, woops chmod +x twonkymedia-i386-glib-2.2.5.sh && sudo ./twonkymedia-i386-glib-2.2.5.sh
[10:28] <purpzey> Is there a specific package I need to run the emerge command?
[10:28] <GeekChick|> hammedhaaret, you would need the key then. "sudo hcitool key <your_key> <BT_ADDRESS>"
[10:28] <wam> Jin, which softwares do you need?
[10:28] <Jin> I will be running matlab + maple
[10:28] <Jordan_U> ezE, Ask away :)
[10:28] <ezE> I installed ubuntu, restarted, went to the bash command line, logged in, now I'm stuck
[10:28] <ttjl_> bruenig, lol one sec
[10:28] <ezE> I dont know how to get into the GUI
[10:29] <purpzey> ezE: startx
[10:29] <ezE> THANKS ALOT!!!
[10:29] <twilight__> I was wondering why update manager stopped working properly (the one in system tray) and I have to update my system with sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[10:29] <wam> Jin: ouch
[10:29] <hammedhaaret> GeekChick| was the last one a correction there?!? and do i just put the connect command somewhere in between?
[10:29] <wam> Jin, then, you'd better choose the 32bits version
[10:29] <ttjl_> bruenig, ok looks like it worked THANKS a bundle, now i just need to establish how i convert .avi to .wmc
[10:29] <ezE> is STARTX usually not installed automatically?
[10:29] <ttjl_> ooops wmv
[10:29] <wam> Jin, unless they sale 64 bits versions of those softwares
[10:30] <bruenig> ffmpeg can probably do it, take a lot of reading through docs to figure out though
[10:30] <Lilacor> GeekChick|: you're able to get bluetooth accessories working?
[10:30] <spider> hi

[10:32] <Lilacor> GeekChick|: I meant bluetooth phone ...ugh
[10:32] <Seveas> ubuntu uses .deb and not .rpm
[10:32] <stefg> !alien  | dru
[10:32] <starz> artabrahao, they call it that for recognizability as i understand
[10:32] <ubotu> dru: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[10:32] <spider> i know few ingles!!
[10:32] <ezE> I'm installing x11-common manually
[10:32] <shirish> guys is there anyway other than 'top' which gives which programs are running, for 'top' isn't showing a program which has hung
[10:32] <Jordan_U> dru, You first try to find a .deb instead, what program are you trying to install ?
[10:32] <dru> so i cant open this in ubuntu?
[10:32] <Lilacor> GeekChick|: you're not encouraging me here.. :(
[10:32] <starz> vnc is the program that actually forwards the video over ssh / net / or what not

[10:32] <dru> it is supposedly supposed to install any windows program
[10:33] <Jordan_U> dru, You *can* but it is better to install with a .deb
[10:33] <Seveas> chrisjs169|afk, down at the bottom are network subnets, not ip addresses
[10:33] <dru> and i cant live without photoshop
[10:33] <starz> i guess just click that one box and have them do your ip
[10:33] <wam> dru:and gimpshop?
[10:33] <kendale> hello can some one help me next?
[10:33] <chrisjs169|afk> Seveas: for source/destination?
[10:33] <dru> gimp = watered down version of photoshop
[10:33] <dru> ive tryed it .. i cant use it
[10:33] <GeekChick|> Lilacor, hammedhaaret, I just found a package on google for this that may help, but i havent tested it. its called "gammu."
[10:33] <Seveas> yeah
[10:33] <spider> ubotu: Ok Muchas gracias,
[10:33] <starz> if its on the same network: " vncviewer <IP_ADDRESS>:0 " for instance without the quotes
[10:34] <shirish> Lilacor: thanx, D/L & installing as we speak
[10:34] <starz> remember you must start an X session and leave it running for that method to work i think :)
[10:34] <wam> spider: no need to thank ubotu, that's a bot!
[10:34] <dru> jordan_u: how do i start this rpm file?
[10:34] <kendale> please please please can someone help me :(
[10:34] <dru> what program do i need?
[10:34] <Jordan_U> dru, crossover will not let you install *any* windows program, and it is based on the free program "wine" I would try wine first, if that does not work use alien to convert the .rpm to a .deb
[10:34] <hammedhaaret> GeekChick| should i google it or use synaptic?
[10:34] <wam> dru: alien
[10:34] <Lilacor> kendale: I can't help you.  I haven't a clue what's wrong.
[10:34] <Orborde> Is GParted trustworthy for resizing NTFS partitions?
[10:34] <kendale> hi i need some help with GDM I tried to set up xmdcp and now i cant log in to my system how do i disable xmdcp from the recovery console
[10:34] <wam> dru: to convert it into a .deb file
[10:35] <blackjackel> anyone know how i can access my wine drive in the GUI?
[10:35] <dru> thanks
[10:35] <starz> if it was a remote pc - say your at work and accessing your home computer: " vncviewer your.ip.goes.here:0 "
[10:35] <Lilacor> Orborde: I'd not do that
[10:35] <Jordan_U> Orborde, Yes
[10:35] <erUSUL> dru: instaling rpm files is not a good idea if you do not know what are you doing...
[10:35] <dru> i tryed wine .. diddnt work
[10:35] <GeekChick|> hammedhaaret, i just found it in apt-get, but id google for it too, because like i said, i just found this 1 minute ago.
[10:35] <lostnewb> Anyone have any ideas on getting a driver for my sigmatel soundcard?
[10:35] <dru> what do u mean? ..

[10:35] <Jordan_U> Lilacor, Yes
[10:35] <wam> lostnewb: no, sorry. What does google say about it?
[10:35] <hammedhaaret> blackjackel : its a hidden folder named .wine in your home folder
[10:35] <Lilacor> Jordan_U: nifty.. I learned something new today
[10:36] <blackjackel> hammedhaaret: Yes, I know this, and i know how to cd to it in a terminal, but I have no idea how to get to it using the GUI

[10:36] <Lilacor> Jordan_U: too bad there's no easy way to resize ntfs partitions inside of a virtual machine
[10:36] <lostnewb> Well, I can't get the exact model number of my card and all the support guy at Gateway can say is that it is a Sigmatel high definition audio codec
[10:36] <Lilacor> webodin: how about totem?
[10:36] <fumanju> how do i uninstall mysql server and client completely
[10:36] <webodin> try yhat
[10:36] <starz> make sense artabrahao ?
[10:36] <lostnewb> I can't find anyone that has the same laptop as me running ubuntu
[10:36] <lostnewb> so, I'm pretty lost
[10:36] <hammedhaaret> blackjackel : you know that hidden files becomes visible with ctrl+H right??
[10:36] <dru> hm .. i searched alien and only found games
[10:36] <webodin> i see only Bluescreen
[10:36] <Jordan_U> Lilacor, What do you mean?
[10:36] <dru> is there a command to run in terminal to install it?
[10:37] <shirish> ok, that doesn't also work, is there anyway one can find out the contents of a .deb package?
[10:37] <wam> lostnewb: which laptop?
[10:37] <erUSUL> lostnewb: if it's an hda codec compatible sound card it should work...
[10:37] <blackjackel> hammedhaaret: I'm quite a newbie, so no :)
[10:37] <erUSUL> !sound | lostweb
[10:37] <ubotu> lostweb: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3

[10:37] <lostnewb> it doesn't work out of the box
[10:37] <lostnewb> thats for sure
[10:37] <blackjackel> hammedhaaret: Woah, soo many hidden files :D
[10:37] <blackjackel> hammedhaaret: Can i enable display of hidden files by default?
[10:37] <Lilacor> Jordan_U: I did not know you could alter ntfs partitions with gparted
[10:37] <lostnewb> you have any modprobe ideas?
 what does not make sense?
[10:37] <hammedhaaret> blackjackel : sry the tone.. me too.. only just found out (:

[10:38] <wam> lostnewb: that's a tough question actually
[10:38] <Jordan_U> Lilacor, I meant why do you say you cant resize NTFS in a virtual machine?
[10:38] <webodin> any ideas

[10:39] <Lilacor> zoidberg: edit your fstab
[10:39] <ezE> whats LIVE CD?
[10:39] <Lilacor> Jordan_U: huh?
[10:39] <zoidberg> Lilacor, i know but what do i edit...what do i put
[10:40] <DuckFart> igmyzt: that was meant to be ctrl+alt+left mouse button. hold all three and move mouse
[10:40] <dru> jordan_u: i click atl f2 and run alien .. but nothing comes up
[10:40] <kendale> hi i need some help with GDM I tried to set up xmdcp and now i cant log in to my system how do i disable xmdcp from the recovery console
[10:40] <wam> !ubotu | wam
[10:40] <Orborde> Lilacor / Jordan_U : Thanks.
[10:40] <igmyzt> DuckFart: got it, thank you
[10:40] <webodin> how do i come ind to config file of VLC ?
[10:40] <Lilacor> zoidberg: 'man ntfs-3g'
[10:40] <Jordan_U> ezE, It is a CD that you can boot from and have a fully working version of a linux distribution ( like Ubuntu's "Desktop" CD installer )
[10:40] <arielprc> wtf
[10:40] <arielprc> i hate this version of xchat
[10:41] <dru> lilacor: how do i run alien?
[10:41] <zoidberg> Lilacor, there is no man entry for ntfs-3g
[10:41] <ezE> thanks jordan, thougth so
[10:41] <Jordan_U> !ntfs-3g | zoidberg
[10:41] <ubotu> zoidberg: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[10:41] <xerebz> check check
[10:41] <wam> dru: alien -d file.rpm
[10:41] <Lilacor> dru: 'alien <x>.deb"
[10:41] <Checkka> Is there a known bug in ubuntu where switch user and logoff dont work?
[10:41] <Lilacor> dru: 'er.. what wam said
[10:41] <dru> thank you both
[10:42] <zoidberg> Lilacor, but feisty already allows you to do that...i want to use the native feisty application
[10:42] <wam> Lilacor: ;-)
[10:42] <Jordan_U> Lilacor, So you have windows installed in a Vmware virtual machine and you want to resize it's NTFS partition, correct?
[10:42] <Checkka> because after installing feisty, my switch user and logoff dont work
[10:42] <GeekChick|> Oh, Lilacor, earlier, you didn't tell me how long a kernel compile takes. Is this an hour affair, 6 hours, 10 minutes? I have an Intel Core Duo 2GHz, 1 GB ram, and a 7200rpm hard drive.
[10:42] <Lilacor> Jordan_U:  yes
[10:43] <Jordan_U> Lilacor, Are you using Vmware server or player?
[10:43] <Lilacor> GeekChick|: it doesn't take that long unless you're running some gawd awful slow box
[10:43] <Lilacor> Jordan_U: workstation
[10:43] <SlimeyPete> GeekChick|: it'll take twenty minutes, tops (probably a lot less)
[10:43] <larson999> robert heron is so annoying.... and usually inaccurate for a tech show guy
[10:43] <Jordan_U> Lilacor, That allows you to boot from a .iso like vmware-server does correct?
[10:44] <Lilacor> Jordan_U: I'm telling you that partition magic is the only known way to do what I'm talking about.
[10:44] <GeekChick|> SlimeyPete, Lilacor, do i grab the same kernel version that is my latest config file from kernel.org or do i grab a newer one?
[10:44] <Lilacor> Jordan_U: yes
[10:44] <Jordan_U> Lilacor, I am asking why gparted from a liveCD image wouldn't work?
[10:44] <kevin> has anyone got xfire for linux yet?
[10:44] <Lilacor> GeekChick|: I'd stick with your current kernel version or things could get very ugly
[10:44] <wam> GeekChick|: about 1hour to compile
[10:44] <GeekChick|> Lilacor, so i have to go find it at kernel.org then.
[10:44] <GeekChick|> k.
[10:45] <dru> wam: thanks
[10:45] <Lilacor> Jordan_U: OH!!! -_-; okay, you're right I'm wrong
[10:45] <Lilacor> Jordan_U: that didn't occur to me. ugh
[10:45] <Jordan_U> :)
[10:45] <webodin> hi i have problem with VLC+totem+mplayer  and i try ...player  after a clean install and sudo apt-get install vlc libvlc0 vlc-nox mozilla-plugin-vlc vlc-plugin-alsa vlc-plugin-esd wxvlc +w32codecs + libdvdcss2,and so on ,  i Still can't see video, i hear only sound
[10:46] <webodin> any ideas
[10:46] <ezE> which partition option should I select??? I always just did the "use entire disk" one
[10:46] <kevin> !xfire
[10:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xfire - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:46] <Lilacor> Jordan_U: so you're saying that if a partition was precreated to be 400GB and you wanted to resize to 500GB, gparted is okay with that?
[10:46] <webodin> do any one know how to configure VLC
[10:46] <shatrat> !codec | webodin, sounds like a missing video codec.
[10:46] <ubotu> webodin, sounds like a missing video codec.: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[10:46] <GeekChick|> Lilacor, i cant find 2.6.20-15 at kernel.org http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/
[10:47] <Jordan_U> Lilacor, Oh, you want to actually make the vmware virtual drive larger? No, gparted cannot do that
[10:47] <webodin> k i try
[10:47] <Lilacor> GeekChick|: you don't need to download it from kernel, you can download the kernel sources from synaptic
[10:47] <webodin> thanks
[10:47] <Lilacor> Jordan_U: okay... then I'm still right
[10:47] <bjoern__> my .bash_profile and my .xsession are not evaluated, what can i do?
[10:47] <GeekChick|> Lilacor, i was going by this topic, and it says step 2 http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=311158&highlight=master+kernel
[10:47] <wam> GeekChick|: you looks for feisty's kernel source?
[10:47] <Lilacor> Jordan_U: partition magic is the only software I know that could do that. :-/
[10:47] <redpill> Lilacor maybe u can enlarge ur hd with vmware tools
[10:48] <mnemnonic_> #123net
[10:48] <erUSUL> !kernel | GeekChick|
[10:48] <ubotu> GeekChick|: kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[10:48] <Lilacor> redpill: you can enlarge the HDD but it doesn't expand the existing partitions
[10:48] <jrib> bjoern__: when do you think they should be?
[10:48] <Jordan_U> Lilacor, How would partition magic make the virtual drive larger? How would that even be possible from the guest OS ?
[10:49] <bjoern__> jrib: when logging in by gdm
[10:49] <redpill> Lilacor ok, but u can make a new partition with gparted and do this (the new partition) ur /home partition
[10:49] <dru> wam: sorry again ... when i opened this in archive .. it gave me a bunch of files but no install, am i supposed to open it in a certain file?
[10:49] <GenNMX> gparted can alter partition sizes, but altering partitions is always a gamble.
[10:49] <erUSUL> GeekChick|: the sources for the ubuntu kernel can not be found in kernel.org see the ubotu msg's (althought you can use vanilla kernel from kernel.org if you wish)
[10:49] <wam> dru: which archive? the .deb file?
[10:49] <Lilacor> GeekChick|: hmmmm... I *thought* you could just download the kernel sources using synaptic
[10:49] <jrib> bjoern__: no, they won't be.  Try ~/.xprofile instead of .xsession
[10:49] <artabrahao> what it the remote destkop for? How Can I use it?
[10:49] <Jordan_U> Lilacor, Once you have expanded the *drive* with vmware-tools you can expand the *partition* with gparted
[10:49] <Lilacor> GeekChick|: maybe I'm just plum wrong
[10:49] <dru> archive manager
[10:50] <dru> yes he newly converted deb file
[10:50] <uberushaximus> I can't get gpg to send my keyfile :/
[10:50] <Lilacor> Jordan_U: okay, I think I'm making myself confused
[10:50] <wam> dru: it's not an archive, it's a package, install il with sudo dpkh -i file.deb
[10:50] <jrib> bjoern__: and .bash_profile is only for login shells
[10:50] <bjoern__> jrib: in .xprofile i can do source ~/.bashr_profile
[10:50] <jrib> bjoern__: right
[10:50] <Lilacor> Jordan_U: okay then you're still right
[10:50] <wam> dru: sorry: with sudo dpkg -i file.deb
[10:50] <Lilacor> Jordan_U: you can expand the size of the drive using vmware-vdiskmanager and then expand the size of the partition using gparted
[10:50] <bjoern__> jrib: thank u
[10:51] <igmyzt_> hello, if i change the beryl theme, will my options still be the same?
[10:51] <Lilacor> redpill: I don't want to make a new partition
[10:51] <wam> dru: what's the rpm you try to install? isn't there a deb already available?
[10:51] <johnsyweb> Hi there. I'm a newbie.
[10:51] <Frogzoo> what's the best pgp key manager for gnome ?
[10:51] <dru> uh
[10:51] <dru> its crossover
[10:51] <Lilacor> redpill: I just wanted to change the size of my guest OS's primary partition
[10:51] <dru> i got it as an rpm
[10:51] <Pupeno> I am getting this error: "W: GPG error: http://archive.ubuntu.com ('http://archive.ubuntu.com') feisty-proposed Release: The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG 40976EAF437D05B5 Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key". Am I missing something?
[10:51] <wam> dru: there should be a .bin proposed
[10:51] <Pupeno> Frogzoo: seahorse maybe.
[10:51] <vorbote> Frogzoo: seahorse
[10:52] <Frogzoo> Pupeno: maybe, thx
[10:52] <johnsyweb> Wow... this is a busy channel!
[10:52] <Frogzoo> vorbote: thx 2
[10:52] <blackjackel> Has anyone here gotten Steam to run under Wine?
[10:52] <sdf> how can i know capacity of screen card from ubuntu??
[10:52] <Frogzoo> !steam
[10:52] <ubotu> Steam can be found at: http://www.steampowered.com/
[10:52] <Lilacor> johnsyweb: lots of people need help and like helping others
[10:52] <redpill> Lilacor so dude, u can move ur home to enlarge ur primary
[10:52] <wam> dru: did you try the dpkg?did it work?
[10:52] <Pupeno> I mean, do I have to update the key or something?
[10:52] <dru> um
[10:52] <dru> no
[10:52] <dru> it still named rpm
[10:52] <Lilacor> redpill: huh?
[10:52] <dru> but it works in archiver .. unlike the other rpm
[10:53] <dru> i checked and properties still says its rpm
[10:53] <johnsyweb> Are there any experts in here who can help me get my wireless card working?
[10:53] <wam> dru: did alien display an error message?
[10:53] <igmyzt> someone, will my beryl settings change when i switch themes?
[10:53] <johnsyweb> It's nearly 7am and I have been trying all night to get my new PC on the network here :-(
[10:53] <dru> where does it show the new deb file
[10:53] <dru> because it said the original name of the file
[10:53] <dru> i renamed it so i could type it better
[10:54] <Lilacor> johnsyweb: first figure out what chipset you're using...then figure out how to install/activate its driver
[10:54] <igmyzt> dru: can you answer my question?
[10:54] <wam> dru: don't you have a .deb file created by alien?
[10:54] <johnsyweb> Thanks Lilacor.
[10:54] <Lilacor> redpill: that doesn't make sense...why would I move my home dir?
[10:54] <dru> ig
[10:54] <dru> what question?
[10:55] <johnsyweb> It's a Netgear WG311v3.
[10:55] <dru> i sent u the command ... what it said in a pm
[10:55] <dru> wam
[10:55] <johnsyweb> Which uses a Marvel chipset I beliebe.
[10:55] <wam> dru: and sudo dpkg -i you_file.deb does it work?
[10:55] <GeekChick|> erUSUL, http://pastebin.ca/497413, I got an error following the guide Ubotu gave me.  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[10:55] <dru> no
[10:55] <wam> dru: it sometimes fail
[10:56] <wam> dru: every package cannot be converted that easilty
[10:56] <wam> dru: can't you get the .run version?
[10:56] <dru> dont know
[10:57] <wam> dru: that would work at least, I've already experienced it once
[10:57] <dru> did you see that pm? does that mean it made it
[10:57] <dru> or not
[10:57] <johnsyweb> I have followed (among others) the instructions here, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=320111
[10:57] <erUSUL> GeekChick|: i do not see any error (the gpg one is afaics harmless) it seems that it dl the sources and unpack them 'dpkg-source: unpacking linux-meta_<IP_ADDRESS>.14.tar.gz'
[10:57] <ezE> why is the DESKTOP version bigger than the SERVER version?? is this normal?
[10:57] <wam> dru: I didn't see any PM, and I don't think you saw mine either
[10:57] <dru> aim?
[10:58] <erUSUL> ezE: it comes with gui the server does not ;)
[10:58] <SlimeyPete> ezE: the desktop version includes the X server (the gui)
[10:58] <GeekChick|> erUSUL, so i can continue despite the gpg crap?
[10:58] <wam> dru: hum, no, jabber
[10:58] <ezE> SON OF A
[10:58] <erUSUL> GeekChick|: i do think so, yes
[10:58] <dru> dont have jabber
[10:58] <ezE> that would explain it
[10:58] <dru> what is it?
[10:58] <eifzon> ehh, what can be wrong? i had 2-3 processes on, and my both cpus was on like load 100
[10:58] <eifzon> so i am lagging as hell :|
[10:58] <wam> dru: how are you connected here then?
[10:58] <ezE> I want to use SQL... I cant on the desktop version???
[10:58] <dru> xchat
[10:58] <wam> dru: anyway, doesn't matter much
[10:58] <dru> irc
[10:58] <purpzey> Lilacor: Just, fyi, because I really felt like a major dolt when I found it....Apparently, there is a package called gynaptic designed to deal with this issue, which totally should be included on the wiki
[10:58] <wam> dru: ok
[10:59] <SlimeyPete> wam: erm, you don't need jabber to connect here. This is IRC. There are lots of clients available.
[10:59] <rami> Hello, I need help with my display, I can't get the maximum out of my LCD screen
[10:59] <Lilacor> purpzey: thanks! :D
[10:59] <wam> SlimeyPete: yes, I just realised that
[10:59] <purpzey> Lilacor: typo...gsynaptic

[11:03] <disinterested> thats ok ty
[11:03] <GeekChick|> erUSUL, is every config option in the format of NAME=y? For "CONFIG_NO_HZ" it would be "CONFIG_NO_HZ=y" yes?
[11:03] <viator> whats the command to see the error log

[11:05] <wam> dru: you should look for the .run version
[11:05] <dru> so how do i convert?
[11:05] <erUSUL> GeekChick|: yes or 'n' for no and 'm' for build as module
[11:05] <eifzon> dru: but how could amsn take like 150% of my cpu?
[11:05] <foso> viator
[11:05] <Yasuo> hi

[11:05] <viator> yes?
[11:05] <dru> i dont know how it can
[11:05] <dru> i use gaim .. its alot better
[11:05] <wam> eifzon: 150% is quite a high value ^^
[11:05] <Lilacor> use pidgin 2.0
[11:05] <GeekChick|> erUSUL, so i need to use =y, then?
[11:06] <eifzon> wam: i got c2d
[11:06] <eifzon> and my computer lagged
[11:06] <eifzon> :|
[11:06] <wam> eifzon: yeah, maybe should try gaim instead
[11:06] <eifzon> i got it now
[11:06] <eifzon> but i just wonder
[11:06] <eifzon> amsn worked fine yesterday
[11:06] <eifzon> but now :|
[11:06] <blackjackel> I am now running steam and its downloading a file, but I have no idea where its downloading the file to... how can i find out?
[11:06] <foso> viator, i ran that command and it lists two inf files
[11:06] <foso> as installed
[11:06] <wam> eifzon: maybe try to remove the config files and start it
[11:07] <erUSUL> GeekChick|: yes, but yyou usually use make menuconfig or make config (needs aditional packages) and do not edit the config directly
[11:07] <wam> eifzon: mv ~/.amsn ~/.amsn.old
[11:07] <dru> wam:Warning: Skipping conversion of scripts in package crossover-pro: postinst preinst prerm
[11:07] <dru> Warning: Use the --scripts parameter to include the scripts.
[11:07] <dru>  .... thats what it says when i run alien
[11:07] <GeekChick|> erUSUL, haha, well i just edited it manually. :(
[11:07] <johnsyweb> But when I run `modprobe ndiswrapper` I get an error "FATAL: Error inserting ndiswrapper (/lib/modules/2.6.15-26-generic/kernel/drivers/net/ndiswrapper/ndiswrapper.ko): Invalid argument". Can anyone shed any light on this? I'm at my wits' end!
[11:07] <eifzon> how do i load a theme @ gaim
[11:08] <viator> foso no
[11:08] <Bonkers-> anyone know why mplayer would play mp3 files as static? all other formats and all other sound programs work fine
[11:08] <dru> eifzon: i diddnt know u can upload themese for gaim
[11:08] <wam> dru: alien is for the rpm convertion what is wine for the windows executables...
[11:08] <viator> do sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter
[11:08] <erUSUL> GeekChick|: use 'make oldconfig' to check the syntax
[11:08] <foso> viator
[11:08] <eifzon> dru, just found one
[11:08] <Rictoo_> How would I make Ubuntu a different language? (eg., Hungarian)
[11:08] <foso> wast hat last one directed to me?
[11:08] <dru> wam: im confused
[11:08] <wam> dru: you're never sure wheter it'll work or not
[11:09] <wam> dru: in your case, it doesn't seem to work
[11:09] <dru> wam: id rather try it and fail .. then not try it
[11:09] <GeekChick|> erUSUL, "make: *** No rule to make target `oldconfig'.  Stop."
[11:09] <viator> no i just asked if you had installed it
[11:09] <wam> dru: so forget it and try something else
[11:09] <CarlFK> Rictoo_: system, admin, Languate - then create a new user
[11:09] <dru> thank you wam
[11:09] <wam> dru: that's what we did, we tried alien, and it failed
[11:09] <stonek> can anyone tell me how to empty the trash using terminal?
[11:09] <foso> no, should i?
[11:09] <dru> if i get a .run .... or .deb .... what do i run it with?
[11:10] <erUSUL> GeekChick|: ouch! i usually build vanilla kernels and thoes do have that target...
[11:10] <viator> foso lets see what chipset you have
[11:10] <wam> stonek: rm -R  ~/.Trash
[11:10] <viator> type  lspci
[11:10] <viator> and look for network controller
[11:10] <purpzey> Where is ./icons located?
[11:10] <erUSUL> GeekChick|: are you in /usr/src/linux.../ ??
[11:10] <martalli> How can I turn off my synaptics trackpad?  It was easy in kubuntu, but I don't see a synaptics utility in ubuntu
[11:10] <wam> dru: for the .run ./file.run
[11:11] <GeekChick|> erUSUL, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild, i'm at the "debian/rules updateconfigs" step. but again, its biased to a /debian/ directory. :(
[11:11] <martalli> I don't want to permanently diable it, since I don't always use the mouse
[11:11] <wam> dru: or sudo sh file.run
[11:11] <foso> broadcom corp bcm4306 b/g
[11:11] <stonek> wam:thank you
[11:11] <viator> it should say somthing like Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4318
[11:11] <purpzey> martalli: I just walked through this entire problem
[11:11] <GeekChick|> erUSUL, no, i am in /boot
[11:11] <viator> ok cool
[11:11] <viator> perfect
[11:11] <purpzey> martalli: There is utility called gsynaptic
[11:11] <martalli> OK
[11:11] <viator> now do sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter
[11:11] <martalli> purpzey: I can probably take it from there
[11:12] <purpzey> martalli: sudo aptitude install gysynatpics
[11:12] <purpzey> martalli: Really easy....You might have to make a quick change in your xorg.conf, but it is just a slight change.
[11:12] <viator> when its done let me know
[11:13] <limon_off> ciao
[11:13] <GAPeach> Hi, I have a quick question. I am trying to do a repair install of Windows XP. I started, but when my computer restarted, instead of continuing on to the Windows XP Install screen, it heads back to GRUB. Is there a way I can bypass GRUB so I can finish repairing Windows XP?
[11:13] <erUSUL> GeekChick|: you have to copy the config found in /boot to /usr/src/linux (where the sources are) this way 'sudo cp /boot/config-2.6.20-15-generic /usr/src/linux/.config and make all comands from that dir not from /boot
[11:13] <CarlF1> why does https://wiki.ubuntu.com redirect me to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HiltonGibson ?
[11:13] <purpzey> GAPeach: Doesn't seem like it....Unless you get something that will boot direct...E.G. a boot disc.
[11:14] <erUSUL> GeekChick|: sorry but i have to fly (saturday night!!) good luck!!
[11:14] <johnsyweb> Has anybody in here got a Netgear WG311v3 working with AMD64?
[11:14] <viator> foso how you doing?
[11:14] <CarlF1> GeekChick|: you may want to see  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[11:14] <GAPeach> purpzey: Like Super GRUB Disk?
[11:14] <wam> ok guys, 235 patents, don't you think it's a huge number?
[11:14] <Elm> Is there any particular reason when doing a BIOS recovery that the monitor would not be working? (Never done one ;.;)
[11:14] <johnsyweb> This thing has literally kept me up all night. It is daylight out there now!
[11:15] <purpzey> GAPeach: Honestly, I don't know that much about it, but GRUB installs itself on the MBR...so, unless you bypass it somehow it seems you'll be hitting it
[11:15] <Lilacor> wam: I think that's a large number of lies
[11:15] <wam> if we divide by the number of Linux users, how much do we pay each?
[11:15] <wam> Lilacor: ^^
[11:15] <CarlF1> stonek: how do you empty the trash any way? (im stuck on this too)
[11:15] <foso> viator, got it dl'd
[11:15] <lethu> GAPeach, you can try adding an entry for windows in your grub config
[11:15] <viator> ok
[11:15] <lethu> GAPeach, like for a normal dual boot system
[11:16] <wam> CarlF1: rm -R  ~/.Trash
[11:16] <foso> the wireless card turns on now
[11:16] <viator> foso look to your top right see the equivalent of the win xp systray with the network  conectivity icon
[11:16] <foso> and it works!
[11:16] <foso> thansk alot
[11:16] <gluttony> jrib: that didn't help
[11:16] <viator> left click on there
[11:16] <CarlF1> wam: thanks
[11:16] <viator> you should see the wireless newtoek on the list hopefully
[11:16] <GAPeach> lethu: What if it's already dual boot?
[11:17] <foso> i had entered the wireless network name already
[11:17] <foso> will they show up automatically now though?
[11:17] <wam> foso: hopefully
[11:17] <viator> it should
[11:17] <hannhimhe> If I don't have a monitor connected to my machine it stucks at 800x600 resolution. Can I force it to stay at 1600x1200 somehow?
[11:17] <foso> thanks a lot
[11:17] <foso> one more question
[11:17] <wam> foso: have you added broadcom43xx in /etc/modules ?
[11:18] <foso> i dont think so
[11:18] <viator> foso is it working now?
[11:18] <foso> im a noob to command line
[11:18] <foso> yeah
[11:18] <viator> if its working you should be all set
[11:18] <viator> wam i didnt have todo that in fiesty
[11:19] <viator> in dapper i did
[11:19] <Xraven92> um...im new to linux and i have a question
[11:19] <lethu> GAPeach, then I see no reason why it shouldn't continue the installation like if there was only windows on your comp, except if you didn't select windows at boot menu or if the windows entry isn't well set
[11:19] <wam> viator: ok, I don't use Ubuntu actually
[11:19] <jason0_> Anyone know why ivman wouldn't mount a device? The same device is mounted if it is plugged in when ivman is started.
[11:19] <Possum> In feisty... what would cause keys to repeat sporatically?
[11:19] <foso> thanks a whole lot
[11:20] <Elm> WHat would cause a CD drive not to show up as a boot device if the Mobo does infact boot from CDs =/
[11:20] <Xraven92> before i install ubuntu...is there an option the will let me dual boot between windows xp and ubuntu without haveign to re-install widnows?
[11:20] <foso> also, it started closing my gaim windows and it acts like i clicked a mouse button and selected something when i havent
[11:20] <Possum> I'm pretty sure this b0x has some hardware issues, but it runs windoze no problem... ubuntu is running slow and sporadically repeating keyprrrresssses
[11:20] <foso> just randomly, no pattern that i can see
[11:20] <martalli> purpzey: Do I add the "SHMConfig" "true" in the area of xorg.conf for the synaptics trackpad?  This is what I was thinking I should do: http://pastebin.ca/497457
[11:20] <wam> Xraven92: this is the default behaviour
[11:20] <Possum> And   I typetoo fast and accurately to go back and fix the errors al l the time...

[11:21] <Elm> CURSES ABOUND!
[11:21] <viator> yeah mine does that in fiesty
[11:21] <purpzey> martalli: Just find the part of xorg.conf where the synaptics pad is....should look something like driver "synaptics" identifer "touchpad"
[11:21] <levon> wam thanxz
[11:21] <foso> thats what ive got
[11:21] <purpzey> martalli: /dev/psaux/
[11:21] <viator> i filed a bug
[11:21] <foso> is there a fix?
[11:21] <xJulesx> anyone know how I can get db1 on ubuntu fiesty?
[11:22] <foso> ok
[11:22] <Xraven92> wait...how do i set up my partions?
[11:22] <viator> its a regression
[11:22] <wam> Xraven92: of course, but defrag, and then reduce the size of your windows partition first
[11:22] <viator> i think it might have todo woth wireless
[11:22] <viator> heheh
[11:22] <viator> did it just start
[11:22] <foso> no
[11:22] <viator> oh its been doing it

[11:22] <Xraven92> does the ubuntu installler include a patrioner?
[11:22] <purpzey> martalli: then add that line....set to SHMConfig "no"
[11:22] <xJulesx> yes, it's in the system menu
[11:22] <viator> its really annoying when i am editing pictures with gimp
[11:22] <igmyzt> i need help installing java on ubuntu
[11:23] <xJulesx> gnome partition manager I think
[11:23] <ezE> is it possible to do a network boot?
[11:23] <wam> Xraven92: yes, but I usually do this using gparted on the liveCD first
[11:23] <purpzey> Xraven92: Yes.
[11:23] <foso> yeah, writing papers was a pain too
[11:23] <xJulesx> I had to manually partition my drive to get it to install propperly
[11:23] <wam> Xraven92: it's called gparted
[11:23] <viator> i might go back to dapper
[11:23] <ezE> er is it possible to install ubuntu from the network?
[11:23] <foso> im new to this, any idea about how long it will be until it gets fixed?
[11:23] <Xraven92> ok so when i boot into the live cd...i just partion my hard drive 50/50 and then run the installer?
[11:23] <ubuntu> hey
[11:23] <ubuntu> somone here
[11:23] <ubuntu> i have problem
[11:23] <xJulesx> Does anyone have experiance with berkeley db and apache?
[11:23] <martalli> purpzey: Are you shure to set it to "no"?  When I tried to run gsynaptics at first, it came up with an error"GSynaptics couldn't initialize.
[11:23] <martalli> You have to set 'SHMConfig' 'true' in xorg.conf or XF86Config to use GSynaptics"
[11:24] <Janerikhiim> Need help watching webtv... Absolute Newbie at linux:-)
[11:24] <Budwaa> DVD playback in VLC and Kaffine doesnt run at a consistent speed, I think it might be a codec problem as it occurs when the scene changes are large. Are there good and bad DVD codecs out there?
[11:24] <ubuntu> i have problem
[11:24] <ubuntu> why when i format to ext 3 it give permission denied
[11:24] <ubuntu> and it don't format it good
[11:24] <ubuntu> it give error.

[11:25] <xJulesx> ubuntu: yes, you must do it manually
[11:32] (aa_/#ubuntu) jrib: and I have no network connection on that box until tomorrow morning
[11:32] (lethu/#ubuntu) GAPeach, hmm weird, are you sure about your installation CD's integrity?
[11:32] (ubuntu/#ubuntu) ikonia: i have 500gb and i unpartiton 10gb to save file for ubuntu
[11:32] (jrib/#ubuntu) aa_: try #xubuntu if no one here knows
[11:32] (aa_/#ubuntu) jrib: can I use gconf-editor or something?
[11:32] (ikonia/#ubuntu) ubuntu ok - thats great
[11:32] (purpzey/#ubuntu) Will a hard boot really upset ubuntu?
[11:32] (wam/#ubuntu) purpzey: not much
[11:33] (gordonjcp/#ubuntu) purpzey: why?
[11:33] (ubuntu/#ubuntu) ikonia: now i can't format it to ext3,it give error when it make it,this is mount and can't make it.
[11:33] <sebas_> how do I enable remote desktop in Xubuntu?
[11:33] (wam/#ubuntu) purpzey: but don't do it everytime
[11:33] (ikonia/#ubuntu) ubuntu what command are you using and what is the error
[11:33] (purpzey/#ubuntu) gordonjcp: My shutdown button is not there...
[11:33] <Janerikhiim> When I try to watch http://www1.nrk.no/nett-tv/klipp/253171 Mplayer starts... And then goes in "Stopped"   Anyone any Idea????
[11:33] <ubuntu> ikonia: i use gnome partition
[11:33] <gordonjcp> purpzey: can you open a terminal?
[11:33] <purpzey> gordonjcp: Yeah.
[11:33] <ikonia> ubuntu gnome is a partition manager, it does not create file systems
[11:33] <johnsyweb> It seems that I have an old version of ndiswrapper. Where can I ger the latest binary for AMD? I don't have the tools to build my own nor a network connection to get them!
[11:33] <aminstiven> hey
[11:33] <gordonjcp> purpzey: open a terminal, and type "sudo shutdown"
[11:33] <purpzey> gordonjcp: I didn't log into x-server normally so gnome won't let me shutdown
[11:34] <ubuntu> ikonia: then what i need to use?
[11:34] <gordonjcp> purpzey: doesn't matter
[11:34] <gordonjcp> running halt or shutdown from the command line will shut you down just the same
[11:34] <wam> Janerikhiim: it doesn't work at all here
[11:34] <purpzey> gordonjcp: Ok, let me try to logout via terminal and log back in adn see what happens.
[11:34] <ikonia> ubuntu you need to use mke2fs -j /dev/$device_name_for_partition (eg: /dev/sda2)
[11:34] <viator> did you install kde?
[11:34] <xJulesx> exit
[11:34] <martina> ciao
[11:34] <ubuntu> ?
[11:34] <omnius> whats the easiest way to reinstall grub, i install kanotix and its grub is poor indeed
[11:34] <ezE> do you need the files under the "program" directory to install?
[11:34] <ubuntu> ikonia:  it don't have name.

[11:35] <aminstiven> hey, i wanna use programs of windows in my ubuntu, what can i do for install them???
[11:35] <purpzey> gordonjcp: shutdown: time expected ??
[11:35] <omnius> !grub
[11:35] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[11:35] <GAPeach> lethu: The integrity of Windows XP CD? It seems fine to me, it was only bought a month ago.
[11:35] <ikonia> omnius: although grub is the same on most distros
[11:35] <gordonjcp> purpzey: sudo shutdown -t now
[11:35] <omnius> kanotix is poor
[11:35] <omnius> it guesses my OS by the partition type
[11:35] <ikonia> omnius: thats nothing to do with grub
[11:35] <tim167> aminstiven: install wine winehq.org i beleive...
[11:35] <bbrazil> purpzey: 'sudo poweroff' much simpler
[11:35] <ubuntu> ikonia:  this 10gb are unallocated how to see then what sda are?
[11:35] <zaggynl> Should smbd run as root?
[11:35] <bbrazil> zaggynl: yes
[11:36] <viator> purpzey did you install kde?
[11:36] <frank_> hello
[11:36] <zaggynl> bbrazil, ...I thought that was a bad thing
[11:36] <igmyzt> jrib: i'm quite confused by the link
[11:36] <ezE> whats a good site for learning databases like SQL and C programming?
[11:36] <bbrazil> zaggynl: it can't become other users without being root
[11:36] <ikonia> ubuntu the disk you created the parition on is the device name if you created the first partition on the first scsi disk - then its /dev/sda1
[11:36] <zaggynl> hmm okay
[11:36] <ikonia> ezE: not this irc channe, thats for sure
[11:36] <torkel_> How do I get the propretiary ATI drivers to work? Now I've disabled composite and can't find no reference to AIGLX in xorg.conf. I've build the fglrx modules (8.36.5) using module-assistant. The fglrx kernel module seem to work. The kernel module is loaded and xorg.conf is modified to use 'fgrlx' instead of 'ati' or 'radeon'. But fglrxinfo say that I use mesa-gl instead of the propretiary libraries, how do I install them? fglrx-amdcccle xorg-driver-fglrx an

[11:37] <ubuntu> but i didn't mounted it.
[11:37] <ikonia> ubuntu its already mounted
[11:37] <purpzey> viator: I just meant, I didn't install anything that wasn't on the liveCD...I only installed on this computer yesterday...I haven't really even added any packages.

[11:38] <Janerikhiim> Trying Again:-) I'm new to Ubuntu... When trying to watch web tv: http://www1.nrk.no/nett-tv/klipp/253171 Mplayer Stoppes without displaying anything... Please help
[11:38] <purpzey> Yes. But, I did the shutdown via terminal...so I will give you a report as soon as gnome boots back up
[11:38] <ikonia> ubuntu what command are you using to unmount
[11:38] <frank_> i'll be right back.
[11:38] <ubuntu> click on the disk then right click umount
[11:38] <purpzey> viator: Thing is, I might not care...Normally I just hibernate, but I've been hearing that, that can be chancy with ubuntu
[11:39] <nomin> Janerikhiim: maybe you need the right codecs.  Did you install them?
[11:39] <Orborde> Is there a way that I can move a partition towards the beginning of a disk? I resized /dev/hda1 down, leaving free space after it, and now I want to expand /dev/hda2 up to fill that free space, but Gparted won't let me.
[11:39] <ikonia> ubuntu check its not still mounted with the "mount" command
[11:39] <viator> so its only missing from gdm purpzey
[11:39] <viator> ?
[11:39] <ubuntu> ikonia:  ok
[11:39] <zaggynl> bbrazil, sorry to bother you, I'm checking my running services, apache2 seems to be running as root as well
[11:39] <lethu> GAPeach, is it the first time you are using it, also did you experience similar issues before, otherwise can't seem to have any idea on what might be wrong, you might try reinstalling as a last resort
[11:39] <purpzey> viator: As of now, yes. But like I said, I am booting back up right now and I'll let you know if this restart alleviated the issue
[11:39] <Janerikhiim> nomin: Like I said... Im really new to Ubuntu:-) I don't know:-)
[11:39] <ubuntu> ikonia:  after mount,what i need to write?
[11:39] <viator> ok cool
[11:39] <ikonia> ubuntu nothing
[11:39] <nomin> Janerikhiim: I use the mediaplayerconnectivity plugin for firefox which let's you choose which player to open for which types of media.  Sometimes I just have certain file types to open with a different player and it works.
[11:40] <ubuntu> ikonia:  /dev/sda2 on /media/disk-2 type reiserfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)
[11:40] <ikonia> ubuntu ok - so /dev/sda2 is mounted
[11:40] <Elm> I.O Error reading Boot CD ;.;
[11:40] <Janerikhiim> nomin: how do I get them???? Thanks for answering
[11:40] <ikonia> ubuntu what else
[11:40] <nomin> Janerikhiim: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[11:40] <purpzey> viator: Yeah there it is....It must have been because I logged in manually via bash and restarted X-Server.
[11:41] <ubuntu> ikonia: and then when i put something to save on this disk it give permission denied?
[11:41] <viator> yeah also you can goto system administration login window
[11:41] <purpzey> viator: Which is bizarre anyway...but
[11:41] <viator> and look in local
[11:41] <ikonia> ubuntu your not listening, so I don't think I'll use any more time attempting to assist you. Good luck
[11:41] <viator> and see if show actions menu
[11:41] <viator> is ticked
[11:41] <Janerikhiim> nomin: thank you so mutch... I will try that..... Hope it works...
[11:41] <ubuntu> ikonia: hehe,i'm listening,you don't understand me
[11:42] <purpzey> viator: That makes sense.....On the flip-side of the coin, is it true that hibernation is an iffy thing to do?
[11:42] <viator> ive had no probs with it
[11:42] <haluzak> hi people, i installed nvidia drivers on kubuntu and now i have a little low resolution, how can i bring it back to something higher?
[11:42] <nomin> Janerikhiim: I can do everything on linux that I can do on windows except newer mainstream games, although some games work.
[11:42] <viator> maybe save any work before you hybernate
[11:42] <Elm> Disk error 10, AX =4200, drive EF
[11:43] <ubuntu> ikonia: Goodluck on you too.And thanks for the help
[11:43] <Elm> Mean anything to anyone?
[11:43] <viator> that way nothing is lost
[11:43] <viator> brb
[11:43] <ubuntu> i will put the shame for this chat,and the bug in youtube and google video.
[11:43] <ismailmf> haluzak: go to xorg.config and manually change the settings
[11:43] <ikonia> ???
[11:45] <foso> hey, i have a laptop and a desktop running feisty, want to transfer files, how can i do that? can i use a lan cable? if so how do i configure everything?
[11:45] <Janerikhiim> nomin: that sound great...... this is my first linux distro.... Hope I get it all to work with not many ours configuring
[11:45] <bbrazil> zaggynl: that doesn't sound right. You should be using suexec these days
[11:46] <zaggynl> bbrazil, I only installed apache2, the php package and changed the port
[11:46] <bbrazil> zaggynl: apache should be running as www-data - altough the initial process will run as root so it can bind to ports
[11:46] <nomin> Janerikhiim: you'll have to spend some time getting used to linux.  I've been using it on and off for about 3 years now and I think it's been improving and getting easier all the time.  But you have to be willing to get used to how things work on it.  If you're willing to do that, it will seem pretty easy after a while.
[11:46] <nich2chien> foso: with a lan cable, set both ip addresses (<IP_ADDRESS> et <IP_ADDRESS> for example) and use ssh
[11:46] <zaggynl> bbrazil, I have a whole bunch of apache2 processes running, all but one are running www-data, the other one is running root
[11:46] <bbrazil> zaggynl: that sounds correct
[11:46] <foso> nich, i dont understand all that sorry
[11:47] <JohnH> When I try to Run hg I get locale.Error: unsupported locale setting what do I need to do to fix that?
[11:47] <zaggynl> bbrazil, so, that one's for binding ports?
[11:47] <bbrazil> zaggynl: yes, ports <1024 require root
[11:47] <striketd__> hi
[11:47] <ouarza> Smo I love screenlets
[11:48] <c1|freaky> hi all. i have a question about partitioning: currently there are 3 partitions on my hdd. 1. windows (80GB) 2. linux swap (2GB) 3. Linux (Ubuntu) ... i want to remove windows completely to have more space for my linux partiton. is there any possibilty to merge the 80GB with the linux partition?
[11:48] <zaggynl> knowledge++; :)
[11:48] <zaggynl> thanks for the info
[11:48] <Broccoly_> how can i change the color of the tabs in the application list?
[11:48] <JohnH> c1|freaky: I think gpart D can delete the Winders pertition and expand the ext partition.
[11:48] <striketd__> http://www.stdproject.forall.pl/video/std-0.08r0-i386-linux.mpeg (backdoor for windows/linux)
[11:49] <striketd__> nice design
[11:49] <Jordan_U> c1|freaky, Yes, with gparted from a LiveCD ( Ubuntu Installer will work ) delete the windows partition, move the swap partition and expand the ext3 partition
[11:49] <c1|freaky> JohnH: i was trying with qtparted but it doesnt give me any options for that
[11:49] <foso> where do i run ssh?
[11:49] <nich2chien> foso: open a terminal (applications->accessories->gnome-terminal) and run "sudo ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.X"
[11:49] <jrib> foso: client or server?
[11:50] <Jordan_U> c1|freaky, You need to run it from a liveCD
[11:50] <c1|freaky> Jordan_U: thx :D
[11:50] <DJ_Danni> Hello
[11:50] <kermitus> hey, Ubuntu 6.06 used the external drive label casper-rw to label a persistent storage device. Does Ubuntu 7.04 use a differant label for its persistent storage devices?
[11:50] <kermitus> I want to label a 40gig external IDE HDD, because the drive Ubuntu OS is on, is only 6 gigs, and I want to install programs to the external device, this is a laptop of course. ANY ONE KNOW?
[11:50] <Janerikhiim> nomin: The guide tells me to install windows codec... Can I do that from Synaptic?? And what do I search for?
[11:51] <Jordan_U> kermitus, Nope, still casper-rw
[11:51] <nich2chien> foso: it will set the ip addresses. then in one terminal "run ssh 192.168.1.X" with the address of the 2nd computer to access it
[11:51] <DJ_Danni> Hey i am trying to Install phpmyAdmin and she say she canot find it. Can anyone help me?

[11:51] <DJ_Danni> Hey i am trying to Install phpmyAdmin and she say she canot find it. Can anyone help me?
[11:51] <Jordan_U> !hi | macabro22

[11:51] <foso> i have this one on the network wiored and the other wirelessly
[11:51] <Smith-ub> sudo aptitude install phpmyadmin
[11:52] <foso> and two other computers on the network
[11:52] <JohnH> DJ_Danni: do you have universe enabled?
[11:52] <Smith-ub> you have to edit the /etc/apt/source.list thos
[11:52] <Smith-ub> -s
[11:52] <rr_lap> my sound stops working after i suspend
[11:52] <DJ_Danni> Not shure
[11:52] <nomin> Janerikhiim: there are 2 ways to install packaged programs:  through the command line or through synaptic.  They both do the same things buy synaptic is graphical.  Type in the name of each program into synaptic then chech the box.  Do that for each program than click the 'apply' button at the top.
[11:52] <rr_lap> and resume
[11:52] <c1|freaky> cool, since feisty you can just press the open/close button of ur cdrom drive and the drive is automatically unmounted :D
[11:52] <rr_lap> same with wifi
[11:52] <DJ_Danni> How do i see it JohnH?
[11:52] <Jordan_U> !repositories | DJ_Danni
[11:52] <macabro22> I am having trouble getting associated to the AP. Everything else else seems fine. I can see the wireless services but cant connect to them
[11:52] <ubotu> DJ_Danni: 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
[11:52] <macabro22> may someone assist?
[11:52] <kermitus> Jordan_U: Thanks, so I can have my app install managers point to that device and all my apps can safely be installed to the external drive correct?
[11:53] <purpzey> I am having a really curious problem with my wireless....Everything appears to be working fine, but Ubuntu won't connect to my network. I can get on top my neighbors insecure network, but I am not getting any connectivity on my own network...I entered the WEP key, and it was working before, now I just did a reboot and I can't get any connectivity.
[11:53] <tunganet> I just installed this .deb and there were no problem during the installation.  But where do i find this program and run it?
[11:53] <doctapeppa> please help, when I run sudo apt-get install xfonts-base I get the following error: warning: /usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc does not exist or is not a directory
[11:53] <bbrazil> tunganet: dpkg -L packagename
[11:53] <macabro22> =]
[11:53] <macabro22> same here
[11:53] <bbrazil> tunganet: anything in 'bin' is a good bet
[11:53] <nich2chien> foso: 2 on one computer and 3 on the second for example
[11:53] <macabro22> purpzey
[11:53] <tunganet> bbrazil: ok i'll try
[11:53] <Elm> Does the boot CD let you format HDDs and all that jazzZ?
[11:53] <macabro22> I'm have the same issue
[11:53] <purpzey> yes?
[11:53] <KnowledgEngineer> mozilla firefox tall that there is not skype protocol
[11:54] <JohnH> DJ_Danni: in synaptic go to Settings -> Repositories -> check community maintained open source software.
[11:54] <purpzey> were you able to connect once?
[11:54] <Elm> o.o
[11:54] <KnowledgEngineer> how can i install the skype support for mozilla ?
[11:54] <JohnH> DJ_Danni: close that windows and do a reload.
[11:54] <macabro22> When I had Eft
[11:54] <KnowledgEngineer> skype protocol
[11:54] <Jordan_U> kermitus, If you are running the LiveCD in persistent mode then yes ( you won't need to "point" dpkg at the drive, in persistent mode Ubuntu automatically uses any drive labeled casper-rw )
[11:54] <wam> skype sucks
[11:54] <macabro22> yeah, but not anylonger

[11:55] <kermitus> Jorday_U: ok i am now running Ubuntu 7.04 off my laptop harddrive now, I installed from the live cd, so should I use a differant label, now that the OS is on my HDD?
[11:56] <Jordan_U> sacater, You might try running a light weight window manager, like XFCE ( xubuntu )
[11:56] <sacater> Jordan_U: I AM
[11:56] <Jordan_U> sacater, Then fluxbox ;)
[11:56] <rr_lap> why does my sound stop working on my thinkpad when i resume afte a suspemd?
[11:56] <zach382> Hello, I am running a relatively new install of Ubuntu 7.04 and i am having problems running the ./configure command/program
[11:56] <jrib> zach382: what are you trying to install?
[11:57] <zach382> anything from source
[11:57] <zach382> pidgin
[11:57] <Jordan_U> zach382, you need build-essential installed, but you probably don't need to install from source
[11:57] <jrib> zach382: you realize that most things are packaged right?
[11:57] <Jordan_U> zach382, There are pre-built packages for pidgin
[11:57] <zach382> Yes but I want to learn how to use the other methodes
[11:57] <jrib> !compiling > zach382 (see the private message from ubotu)

[11:58] <rr_lap> why does my wifi stop working after i resume my thinkpad from suspend?
[11:58] <purpzey> I am having a similar problem...I just had ubuntu up and running and connected to my router w/ security and upon reboot it won't connect to my router at all
[11:58] <purpzey> It will connect to my neighbors router
[11:58] <Jordan_U> sacater, Fluxbox is a very lightweight but hard to use window manager, it's what damn small linux uses
[11:58] <zach382> If i install build-essential will that allow me to install from source?
[11:59] <Jordan_U> zach382, No, you will need all of the build dependencies also
[11:59] <linuxboy> I instelled starcraft under wine in feisty.  but it is very very very slow.  any ideas ?
[11:59] <linux_manju> sacater: I would like to go with rat poison
[11:59] <linux_manju> sacater: It rocks
[12:00] <lesshaste_> how do you play a flash video full screen that is embedded?  I know this sounds like a dumb question but I can't see it
[12:00] <zach382> Oh okay thank you
[12:00] <Jordan_U> sacater, Unless you are a masochist, don't use ratpoison ;)
[12:00] <rr_lap> why does my wifi and sound stop working on my ibm thinkpad t22 after i resume a suspend?
[12:00] <purpzey> rr_lap: I don't know what issue you are having, but I just realized mine wasn't connecting b/c my keyring dialogue was popping up and hiding itself.
