[00:00] <DVA5912> Is it possible to run a virtual machine to use an existing partition on the hd to run windows?
[00:00] <|val|> hi all, someone can explain what options "replace" and "applies" (in gfxboot.cfg) excatly do to isolinux command line ?
[00:00] <Whitor> DVA5912, is is reported that you can
[00:00] <Whitor> but it takes some work
[00:01] <mobi-sheep> !info vinagre
[00:01] <Whitor> is is = it is
[00:01] <mobi-sheep> !info vino
[00:01] <DVA5912> it beets haveing to dualboot. Whitor
[00:01] <Whitor> DVA5912, sure does ... but you are going to have to have separate HW profiles for each boot environment
[00:01] <Whitor> DVA5912, I just use a straight up windows VM ...
[00:02] <Whitor> and wine for opengl apps
[00:02] <DVA5912> Whitor: i think i might do that as well. If i could find that vista disk that is
[00:02] <Whitor> Though, I hear if you use player strictly, you can install hw accelerated drivers
[00:03] <Whitor> you can virtualize your existing install .. DVA5912  ... no disk needed that way
[00:03] <Whitor> DVA5912, P2V <=- look for ... Physical to Virtual
[00:04] <Radic> .
[00:04] <DVA5912> Whitor: ok. Well i havent yet left windows. im on a live disk now
[00:04] <Radic> .
[00:04] <DVA5912> so. if i can do this i can kiss viruses and slow machines GOOD BYE!

[00:20] <DaZ> n2diy: it's probably terminal

[00:21] <stealth-> Xarver: could be lots of things
[00:21] <DaZ> n2diy: or use lsof on /dev/sdb1
[00:21] <Xarver> stealth-: Nope, even when it's the only program running.
[00:22] <stealth-> Xarver: maybe try downloading the iso via bittorent
[00:22] <Xarver> stealth-:  It's just wubi that's bveing funky

[00:47] <NeutroN--> I have a green/purple/red pixelated screen of death here :(
[00:47] <Xarver> Does anyone know how to install ubuntu without using the cd or usb? Wubi says it will take 30hrs to download the iso, and UNetBootin laggs and doesn't finish
[00:47] <Cryp\ict_Donkey> thank you soreau
[00:47] <Flannel> Xarver: wubi shouldn't take 30 hours to download
[00:48] <Xarver> Flannel: Not the actually wubi itself, just when it tries to download the ubuntu iso.
[00:48] <Flannel> Xarver: Right, that shouldn't take 30 hours.  Can't you feed it an iso anyway?
[00:48] <Xarver> Flannel: No, it is supposed to automatically download it but it takes way too long
[00:49] <sevodnya> Xarver: could you try downloading the ISO manually and seeing if that takes less time?

[00:50] <Darxus> Well, my upgrade appears to be working.
[00:50] <soreau> Zerchy: Increasing the size of the ubuntu partition with a tool like gparted would probably be the most logical solution
[00:50] <sevodnya> Xarver: from the wubi site:
[00:50] <sevodnya> Xarver: from the wubi site: Can I use an existing ISO/CD instead of letting Wubi download a new one?
[00:50] <sevodnya> Yes, physical CDs will be detected automatically, pre-downloaded ISOs should be placed in the same folder as Wubi.exe. Please note tha Wubi 8.10 requires the Desktop 8.10 CD/ISO. The DVD and Altrenate CD/ISO will not work. You can find the 8.10 ISO here. If Wubi does not find an appropriate ISO/CD and/or if the ISO/CD is corrupted, it will automatically download a new ISO. It is recommended to let Wubi download the ISO for you.
[00:50] <FloodBot3> sevodnya: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.

[00:54] <amanda-b> so i have 9.04 desktop running on an acer travelmate 4320. is there a particular reason i might want to switch to the netbook version instead?
[00:55] <NeutroN--> hello again, I am using an ATI Radeon HD 4850 GPU. When I installed Ubuntu everything worked fine with the default drivers, but when I tried to load some games, those drivers wouldn't render images correctly. so I went to the Add/remove screen and added some "ATI catalyst control center", ever since that my screen has just gone pixelated with pixels of random colours when I try to boot
[00:55] <NeutroN--> and the screen is unreadable
[00:55] <NeutroN--> any idea what to do now? :\
[00:56] <RHorse> NeutroN-- you have to do it from cli
[00:56] <Xarver> Oh and when I get ubuntu installed, what do I do to get better drivers for my card? My ATI Mobility Radeon 9000 is slow on Ubuntu and games don't work well.
[00:56] <mobi-sheep> amanda-b: UNR version are tailored for 7" netbooks.
[00:57] <amanda-b> never mind then.
[00:58] <mobi-sheep> amanda-b: Stick with regular Ubuntu Jaunty.  :)
[00:58] <NeutroN--> RHorse: what is that? sorry I am a linux newbie, I only just installed ubuntu to try it out, then I got to this problem :\
[00:58] <amanda-b> mobi-sheep: i've always been a debian girl. =/ only reason i'm messing with this is that i have server on my mac mini -- the debian installer can't handle the efi boot
[00:59] <axisys> what is this means http://pastebin.com/f6c820cd7 ? what is it mean processor 0 of 10 ? fan 0 of 1 ?
[01:01] <sevodnya> axisys: these are showing various power-saving-states of your hardware, numbers greater than zero mean things like the screen being dimmed or the processor running slower
[01:01] <rreyes> how can I know which process is using a specific port?
[01:01] <deww> lsof
[01:01] <RHorse> NeutroN-- can you  drop into a terminal so you caan  type commands?
[01:02] <axisys> sevodnya: what does it mean? cooling 3: Fan 0 of 1 ?
[01:02] <axisys> sevodnya: sorry i am confused :-(
[01:02] <NeutroN--> rhorse: yes I can
[01:02] <NeutroN--> it's not until gnome is loaded that the screen goes unreadable :P
[01:02] <RHorse> But you can't get the desktop to show,is that  right?
[01:02] <NeutroN--> yup
[01:03] <sevodnya> axisys: in that particular case, it's saying the 3rd fan on your computer is turned off, on would be 1
[01:03] <RHorse> Is   the cause of all this heartache one package or more?
[01:03] <mobi-sheep> Is there a command other than "dpkg --get-selections" that will display a list of installed packages?  Preferably aptitude-related ?
[01:03] <axisys> sevodnya: is there a tool i can use to control the fan status ?
[01:03] <NeutroN--> I think one
[01:04] <NeutroN--> I added some ATI catalyst control center and rebooted, then it all happened. hehe
[01:04] <sevodnya> axisys: in general, that's automatically controlled by the BIOS of your computer; there may be a way to control it manually, im not sure
[01:04] <RHorse> dpkg --get-selections|less will give you  a list of  everything  you've instaalled.
[01:05] <RHorse> Search  for your program
[01:05] <NeutroN--> if you give me a min I will come back on another computer, and boot ubuntu on this system
[01:05] <NeutroN--> hold on :)
[01:05] <RHorse> ok
[01:05] <Jack_Sparrow> RHorse does that cover ALL or just the ones installed with apt-get from repos etc
[01:05] <axisys> what does this mean? Cooling 0: Processor 0 of 10  .. last question about this :-)
[01:05] <RHorse> Jack_Sparrow all
[01:05] <jdu> RHorse: or dpkg -l | less   for a list of everything installed
[01:05] <RHorse> there may be a order date argument
[01:05] <mercutio22> anyone can help me using the gimp for image conversion?
[01:06] <sevodnya> axisys: that means that your processor is running at full speed, it would turn down the speed automatically if your computer was startign to get dangerously hot, as running slower produces less heat
[01:06] <usr13> mercutio22: Sure, what do you need to do?
[01:06] <whileimhere> Hi I am trying to use the pdfedit program but each time I open a PDF it crashes. I am on Ubuntu 9.04
[01:06] <usr13> mercutio22: Convert to what?
[01:06] <funnyface> alright it's me NeutroN again, trying to reboot my other system now
[01:06] <axisys> sevodnya: thnx
[01:06] <tux> cool
[01:07] <sevodnya> whileimhere: can you try running it from a terminal, see if it produces output, and pastebin any it produces?
[01:07] <mercutio22> usr13> I need to convert some high-res tiff files into at-least 300 dpi PNGs or JPGs
[01:07] <sevodnya> !pastebin | whileimhere
[01:07] <Jack_Sparrow> mercutio22 gimp
[01:07] <fortuna66_> does anybody knows about Boxee?
[01:07] <whileimhere> sevodnya: http://paste.ubuntu.com/173327/
[01:08] <mercutio22> Jack_Sparrow> I know that, but how can I ensure a determined resolution is attained?
[01:08] <usr13> mercutio22: Just open the file with gimp and then File -> Save As  and then just give it the .jpg or .png extension and gimp does the rest.
[01:08] <mercutio22> usr13> what about that resolution cap?
[01:08] <Jack_Sparrow> mercutio22 perhaps /join #gimp
[01:08] <sevodnya> whileimhere: sorry, i can't say i can point out the problem there--you're trying to split pdfs, yes?
[01:08] <mercutio22> Jack_Sparrow> sure. I am there... thanks.
[01:09] <Jack_Sparrow> whileimhere Are they encrypted or protected pdf's
[01:09] <Jack_Sparrow> mercutio22 cool
[01:09] <usr13> mercutio22: Well, that just depends on what they are when you get 'em.  Gimp will save at highes resolution it can.
[01:09] <whileimhere> sevodnya I have a PDF that is not encrypted or protected and It is about 400 pages. I need just get just a few pages out of it and make a new PDF from those pages.
[01:10] <sevodnya> whileimhere: are you on 9.04?
[01:10] <gumpish> Hi, I'm trying to use the update-manager to upgade (from Gutsy to Hardy, then hopefully on to Jaunty...) but it's saying "Unable to calculate the upgrade" and says it may be because I have 3rd party packages not provided by ubuntu installed. Well is there any easy way to look for packages not provided by Ubuntu? I've probably installed a few...
[01:10] <whileimhere> sevodnya Yes I am on ubuntu 9.04 GNOME desktop
[01:10] <Jack_Sparrow> gumpish Onsupported repos in your sources list would be my first thought
[01:10] <jdu> whileimhere, pdfeditor?
[01:10] <funnyface> ok RHorse I have booted ubuntu now, what did you tell me to type again? :)
[01:10] <whileimhere> jdu Yes.
[01:11] <sevodnya> whileimhere: I haven't used this, but it might do the trick, and it looks straightforward:
[01:11] <sevodnya> !info pdfsam | whileimhere
[01:11] <vasser> hello
[01:11] <fortuna66_> where i can change settings of Boxee?
[01:11] <usr13> vasser: Hello yerself.
[01:11] <vasser> i am trying to set up my audigy2 sound card under ubuntu
[01:12] <vasser> so far i got to the point where in sound-test i hear all speakers
[01:12] <RHorse> ok, funnyface type dpkg -l|less You can paste  that
[01:12] <Jack_Sparrow> fortuna66_ boxee isnt in our repos, perhaps they have a support system
[01:12] <vasser> (should i be hearing static ?)
[01:12] <dtchen> vasser: what are you trying to do, and what is happening instead?
[01:13] <vasser> but when i run a movie to play with Totem it detects it as stereo (and it is not)
[01:13] <fortuna66_> ok..i will try
[01:13] <fortuna66_> its boxee alpha
[01:13] <vasser> in vlc i cannot even choose a device when playing a movie
[01:13] <Monk> Hi there. Did an upgrade from Intrepid to Jaunty. However, I had a previous Kubuntu 9.04 partition of who's GRUB is being used. When I boot my pc, the latest version of Ubuntu kernel is not on the GRUB list since it is the grub list from Kubuntu. How do i make my current Ubuntu GRUB list be the one on startup?
[01:13] <funnyface> hmm yeah I did, that's a long list :P
[01:13] <vasser> both movies (and others i have tried) are hd movies with 5.1 sound, either dts or ac3
[01:14] <Jack_Sparrow> Monk you can repair grub or just copy the grub list you want to the boot drive
[01:14] <gumpish> thanks Jack_Sparrow. seems to have been the problem.
[01:14] <vasser> i have already set up a default sound card
[01:14] <Jack_Sparrow> gumpish cool
[01:14] <vasser> and changed in the settings of gnome to use the audigy as default
[01:14] <Monk> Jack_Sparrow: how do i repait GRUB?
[01:14] <dtchen> vasser: if you want 5.1 through ac3, you need to configure pulseaudio to use that device.
[01:14] <Jack_Sparrow> !grub
[01:14] <brokensilo> I got a problem mounting an NTFS partition.. i get this error: http://pastebin.com/m45e86dc0
[01:15] <dtchen> vasser: that means either modifying /etc/pulse/default.pa or ~/.pulse/default.pa
[01:15] <yoanis> had any one has problems installing mysql 5.1 on Unbuntu Jaunty
[01:15] <yoanis> ?
[01:15] <RHorse> ok now find the  suspect pkg.
[01:15] <yoanis> *Ubuntu
[01:15] <mendocath> I am looking to run a VM server. I recently installed 9.04. I tried to install the Xen packages for the server but could not get it to work or find a good guide to getting started. I am going to install the linux version of VMware server if any one dosnt know if a good guide. The only guide I could find was for earlier versions.
[01:15] <tux> what about usb installs?
[01:15] <Jack_Sparrow> brokensilo looks like you did not defrag that drive twice .. that is the usual recommendation
[01:16] <RHorse> funnyface use pgup and pgdn to find it
[01:16] <Jack_Sparrow> !usb
[01:16] <vasser> dtchen: what do i need to change in that file ?
[01:16] <tux> defrag under ubuntu?
[01:16] <tux> ye susb
[01:16] <dtchen> vasser: the module-alsa-sink device
[01:16] <tux> yes usb man
[01:16] <brokensilo> Jack_Sparrow: Im unable to.... Unable to getinto windows now. had a bad install to the wrong hd.
[01:16] <Jack_Sparrow> tux No in windows on his ntfs
[01:16] <tux> yuck
[01:17] <jcuk> you know, i had a superb piece of software for installing linux from usb and i cant remember what it was called
[01:17] <vasser> dtchen: should i just uncomment it ?
[01:17] <jdu> mendocath, I was not under the impression that ubuntu had good support for Xen, but perhaps I am wrong.
[01:17] <Jack_Sparrow> brokensilo you may break things trying to force a resize on it
[01:17] <jcuk> ran on windows and linux
[01:17] <funnyface> alright let me have a look :P
[01:17] <vasser> (single line or whole section .. ?)

[01:17] <tux> why use windopw sif your on linux is what i always have to ask
[01:17] <Jack_Sparrow> jcuk there was a script lin4usb or something .. one sec
[01:17] <dtchen> vasser: you will need to change it completely. there are hints on the web.
[01:17] <brokensilo> Jack_Sparrow: well the only reason i wanted the drive back is because of all the music i had on it as well as the photos
[01:17] <Equs> jcuk Unetbootin
[01:18] <jcuk> Equs thats the one ;)
[01:18] <vasser> okey, i will look for it

[01:19] <tux> boot*
[01:20] <funnyface> I cannot see it in the list, I don't know exactly what it is called
[01:20] <funnyface> perhaps it's possible to search or sort by date installed?

[01:25] <Armageddon> sevodnya: i just downloaded it, i have no idea where to tar it ! and what to do !
[01:25] <Andre_Gondim-afk> how do I do a downgrade, I need postgres 8.2, but I installed 8.3
[01:25] <Jack_Sparrow> Armageddon they must have instruction where you got it

[01:26] <CiPHER_> Can someone help me get my mouse working correctly on ubuntu please,Ive tried just about everything :(
[01:26] <sevodnya> Armageddon: are you on 8.10 or 9.04?
[01:26] <Armageddon> jaunty
[01:26] <Jack_Sparrow> !details > CiPHER_
[01:26] <Armageddon> asdf1: join #compiz and ask there
[01:27] <RHorse> funnyface that's going  to  be a  problem.  if  youu caant   find  it  you  caant get rid of it!
[01:27] <CiPHER_> Mouse jumps from side to side on the screen at random times while clicking and opening files,but the other times it works perfect
[01:27] <sevodnya> CiPHER_: USB or PS/2?
[01:27] <vasser> no offense, but this thing sets up fairly easy in windows ... i don't get why it is so complicated in ubuntu
[01:27] <CiPHER_> ps2 mouse 2 button with a scroller in the middle made by HP im running on Jaunty
[01:27] <Armageddon> Jack_Sparrow: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/jaunty/en/man4/acpi_toshiba.4freebsd.html
[01:27] <Jack_Sparrow> CiPHER_ Make model of mouse, if any other mouse works, which release of ubuntu.. DETAILS
[01:28] <vasser> surround is not a new feature :(
[01:28] <jdu> CiPHER_, there may be a specific application grabbing it.
[01:28] <Armageddon> vasser: you are paying microsoft around 300$ for your windows which most probably freeze every so often, pay some respect to people giving you an os for nothing in return
[01:28] <queudf> ?DCC SEND "e¡®1e¡®¡ãe¡®¡¤e¡®3e¡®?e¡®3e¡®oe¡®?e¡®¡¤eadfadsfsa¡®?e¡®?e¡¯€e¡®o" 0 0 0
[01:29] <Armageddon> vasser: at least you are here getting helped ! where do you get help if your windows doesnt start ?
[01:30] <Andre_Gondim> when I try to sudo aptitude install postgresql-8.2 -y I see the message No candidate version found for postgresql-8.2
[01:30] <vasser> i am just saying that most stuff in ubuntu simply work, which is great and i appreciate it very much, this is not an exotic feature ..
[01:30] <vasser> ubuntu and linux in general picks up most hardware
[01:30] <CiPHER_> jdu:Such has? and how would I find that out?
[01:30] <vasser> which is a very good job
[01:30] <Armageddon> vasser: not if your bios is phoenix
[01:30] <Jack_Sparrow> vasser Please stick to the issue, ask your question and provide details as needed, we dont need the opinions
[01:31] <HF_HacK3RFoREvEr> hey guys
[01:31] <vasser> okey
[01:31] <Jack_Sparrow> ty
[01:31] <jdu> CiPHER_, rhythmbox sometimes.  or a window manager
[01:31] <mgmuscari> hey, does anybody know if there's a way to make sure that certain window classes / window titles don't get minimized when you use the "Show Desktop" applet?
[01:31] <vasser> is it possible to restart the pulse-audio device w/o reboot ?
[01:31] <jdu> CiPHER_, or at least I have had similar symptoms after using rhythmbox from what appears to be a grab.
[01:32] <Jack_Sparrow> vasser FYI pulse and alsa both have channels with more specific help on sound, but they are a bit slow at times
[01:32] <jdu> vasser, sudo /etc/init.d/pulseaudio restart
[01:32] <vasser> jdu: thanks
[01:32] <CiPHER_> jdu:ok but if I have never used rythmbox then that wouldnt be the issue correct? And another mouse I tried worked fine. So maybe try to turn off the window managers?
[01:33] <Armageddon> how do i install ACPI_TOSHIBA on my system ?
[01:34] <Jack_Sparrow> !laptop
[01:34] <RHorse> funnyface you can try sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:34] <jdu> CiPHER_, well a window manager is required, and I doubt it would be the problem unless you did your own configuration on it.  You are sure no one is grabbing your mouse (remotely)  I have done it to someone else before.
[01:35] <anom01y> instead of installing kubuntu 8.04 and then xfce4, could I install xubuntu, and then kde 3.5 from there ?
[01:36] <jdu> anom01y, yes.  install kubuntu-desktop.
[01:36] <CiPHER_> jdu:Im almost positive,it has been doing this since I had it on the live CD when I first put it on...So unless someone managed to do it 5 minutes after I started running jaunty then no
[01:36] <jdu> anom01y, on later ubuntus ofcourse, that would result in kde 4
[01:37] <Armageddon> jdu: when you install kubuntu does gnome gets deleted ?
[01:37] <jdu> Armageddon, no.  they are both there.  You can select which you want to use at the login screen.
[01:37] <Armageddon> nice
[01:38] <jun_> Hi, I am from China...
[01:38] <jdu> CiPHER_, probably an x configuration problem them, and I expect google is your best bet there (or at least not me on this issue)
[01:38] <mzo> Quick question - where do I place a script to run at startup?
[01:39] <ray66> Which is user friendly brassero or k3b
[01:39] <MsJeeves> I am exceptionally new to ubuntu and have deleted something that i consider to be important but is very trivial.
[01:39] <jdu> mzo, via gnome, anacron, or init?
[01:39] <mzo> ray66. k3b
[01:39] <anom01y> jdu, you can get the kde 3.5.x stuff too though right ?
[01:39] <willscarlet> is anyone here familiar with installing ubuntu on a PPC mac ?   i have a g4 eMAC       cheers for any help :) :)
[01:39] <anom01y> from xubuntu 9.04 ?
[01:39] <Armageddon> jdu: do you have any idea on how to install ACPI_TOSHIBA ?
[01:39] <ray66> mzo...thanks
[01:39] <jdu> anom01y, as long as 8.04 is still supported when you are getting the 'stuff'
[01:40] <CiPHER_> jdu:The closesst I have come to solving this issue is the fact that there is no configuration option for core pointer or mouse in xorg file yet when I try to add one it does not save...could this be the issue do you know?
[01:40] <MsJeeves> I can not see downsized applications on my panel, after i downsize the window.
[01:40] <jdu> Armageddon, unfortunately know.  I am mostly dell.
[01:41] <MsJeeves> can anyone help me with this problem?
[01:42] <jdu> CiPHER_, xorg no longer requires xorg.conf for that now, though it may be you can assign an option to fix your problem.
[01:43] <Sergeant_Pony> I have a built in microphone on my acer laptop, what do I need to do to get it working?
[01:43] <CiPHER_> jdu:Ok,Thanks!!! Ill hit google once again with this new info :)

[01:58] <Zxcvb> Jack_Sparrow: at least on slackware, I use a batch script to switch between them (as nvidia uses a different glcore and such)
[01:59] <Zxcvb> Jack_Sparrow: http://www.powernotebooks.com/support/crowne3-20/
[01:59] <tekteen> Steven, the padlock means it is not owned by you
[01:59] <Zxcvb> Jack_Sparrow: made by Uniwill
[01:59] <Steven> How can that be? It is on my computer
[01:59] <tekteen> Steven, you prob made it in root or something
[01:59] <Steven> I downloaded it
[01:59] <naught101> Anyone know how to get img_assist button working in tinyMCE3.x with the WYSIWYG module?
[01:59] <DidymusRex> steven- sudo chmod 777 <foldernam>, then rm -r <foldername>
[01:59] <Steven> Alright. How do I remove it then?
[01:59] <Steven> alright, I will try that. Thanks
[02:00] <Zxcvb> Jack_Sparrow: you just flip a switch on the front and reboot (Intel 915GM gave about an hour extra battery life compared to GeForce 6600)
[02:00] <derfdog15> i really need help i cant view the vifdeo but i hear the audio...also my compiz cube doesnt run
[02:00] <Steven> It says it cannot access it
[02:00] <derfdog15> video*
[02:00] <derfdog15> anyone?
[02:00] <coolkourt> im having trouble with Eclipse editor, it says that some things cannot be done beause of the installed JRE free vendor how do i remove that and use Suns JRE?
[02:01] <Jack_Sparrow> Zxcvb I doubt ubuntu will do what you want there
[02:01] <derfdog15> i really need help i cant view the vifdeo but i hear the audio...also my compiz cube doesnt run
[02:01] <derfdog15> anyone know why i can hear audio in ubuntu on youtube, but not see the video? i just fresh installed 9.04
[02:01] <Zxcvb> Jack_Sparrow: updating the nvidia drivers is a pain because the nvidia instalation script will delete libGLCore.so in the X11/extensions directory
[02:01] <Steven> How do I get rid of this thing?
[02:01] <Steven> How do I uninstall something?
[02:01] <Jack_Sparrow> derfdog15 soulds like you dont have your video drivers correctly installed
[02:02] <Zxcvb> Jack_Sparrow: it might be more common to do on desktops, where the motherboard has integrated graphics but you installed an nvidia card for gaming or whatever
[02:02] <Jack_Sparrow> Steven gksudo nautilus
[02:03] <DVA5912> Ok i just created 4 new accounts. I dont know what they want as their pass, and would perfer them not tell me. Is their a way to require them to enter it on their first login?
[02:03] <Jack_Sparrow> Zxcvb desktops seldom are trying to preserve battery life and hard switch between the two cards
[02:03] <diego> hi
[02:03] <diego> i'm back
[02:03] <quantumkenny> Jaunty/Evolution and Tracker and/or Beagle.  Any way to get any of these tools to index Evolution IMAP email
[02:03] <Zxcvb> Jack_Sparrow: no, on a desktop you would use it in a dual monitor configuration
[02:03] <Guest6690> somebody knows how to install my NVIDIA video Driver?
[02:04] <Jack_Sparrow> !nvidia
[02:04] <Zxcvb> Jack_Sparrow: or you would have the OS on a removable drive and use it on different computers with different video cards (one nvidia, one SiS, one Intel, etc)
[02:05] <Guest6690> thanx
[02:06] <Guest6690> my ubuntu is old
[02:06] <Guest6690> is an old version
[02:06] <Guest6690> Ubuntu 5.04
[02:07] <jdu> Guest6690,   would be a good idea to move to a ubuntu that is supported.
[02:09] <Guest6690> ok jdu... i'll do it.. my system's teacher gave me this version
[02:09] <mahohmei> Can I ask about 9.04 refusing to print on legal paper?
[02:09] <Guest6690> i'm going to look for a new version
[02:10]  * Arkaniad lurks.
[02:10] <jdu> Guest6690, there is nothing inherently wrong about running an old version except: there may be security issues, your software is outdated, you can't recieve updates or install packages from the repositories.
[02:10] <bolice> hello everybody
[02:10] <Arkaniad> Sup bolice.
[02:10] <bolice> tnks
[02:11] <jdu> Guest6690, so its well worth the update; good luck

[02:12] <homerj> I'm trying to get pyqwt to install via the package manager, but it's complaining I have python 2.6 and it wants 2.5
[02:12] <Guest6690> how can i change my nick?
[02:12] <veloc1ty> /nick *yournick*
[02:12] <homerj> I installed 2.5, but it's still complaining
[02:12] <homerj> should I just force this?
[02:12] <bolice> tst
[02:13] <Guest6690> heyy
[02:13] <Guest6690> thanx
[02:13]  * homerj goes 'meh' and just installs it from source
[02:13] <bolice> thanx
[02:13] <witcher> i have an nvidia graphics card i do have to install there software to use the card? same as windows?
[02:13] <Guest6690> Linux is so cool
[02:13] <FrankQC> lol
[02:13] <FrankQC> I like it
[02:14] <FrankQC> I'm having problems w/ vista atm
[02:14] <bolice> witcher, some os do it for you
[02:14] <FrankQC> I'm happy I started using Linux as my main
[02:14] <Guest6690> witcher
[02:14] <witcher> i have noticed it runs smoother
[02:14] <Guest6690> i have the same problem
[02:14] <Arkaniad> witcher: The RestrictedDriver window should show up if you are using an nVidia card, install the drivers, but beware, i had a laptop that wouldnt boot into ubuntu after i installed the dirvers. Normally they work.
[02:14] <billisnice> 9.04 trying to set up a network printer on window xp machine. When I get to browse on samba the print routine just disappears... it worked fine with 8.04
[02:14] <witcher> this one does not or i don't know how
[02:14] <bolice> change another
[02:14] <Guest6690> i have a NVIDIA too
[02:14] <witcher> kk
[02:15] <witcher> i tried to play a game and its lagged badly
[02:15] <RHorse> mutt
[02:15] <mahohmei> Actually, nVidia's restricted drivers completely broke the 8.04 installation on my Asus M3N78-VM mobo, but 9.04 handled it perfectly
[02:15] <billisnice> the add printer box disappears
[02:15] <Guest6690> i can't install the driver
[02:15] <ArdyElle> hi is there any1 willing to assist me with my ubuntu internet connection problem?
[02:15] <Arkaniad> Here, one second, let me figure out how to get the restricted driver window to pop up
[02:15] <chetnick> ArdyElle: private
[02:16] <witcher> brb
[02:16] <Arkaniad> witcher: When you get back, give me a holler.
[02:16] <chetnick> Arkaniad: system > administration > hardware drivers
[02:16] <jun_> \"/me在喝牛奶\"
[02:16] <Arkaniad> Right.... im not on ubuntu ATM.
[02:16] <ncfi1013_> does anybody here own an ipod?
[02:16] <FrankQC> Yes.
[02:16] <FrankQC> nsfi1013: yes
[02:16] <DVA5912> Ok i just created 4 new accounts. I dont know what they want as their pass, and would perfer them not tell me. Is their a way to require them to enter it on their first login?
[02:17] <nomadluap> man, i want ubuntu sooo bad, but i cant. Damn this G5 prcessor!
[02:17] <tanjir> hi guys... does jaunty has dual monitor support out of othe box?
[02:17] <FrankQC> nomadluap: look for other distributions, maybe one supports G5
[02:18] <mpontillo> !cn | jun_
[02:18] <DVA5912> Did compiz config change the name? i cant find it in add/remove
[02:18] <ncfi1013_> whar generation ipod is it?
[02:18] <coolkourt> is there a channel dedicated to UNR?
[02:18] <jdu> DVA5912, not that I know of.  You could obviously assign default passwords and suggest they change them.
[02:18] <billisnice2> 9.04 trying to set up a network printer on window xp machine. When I get to browse on samba the print routine just disappears... it worked fine with 8.04
[02:18] <tanjir> DVA5912: you need to install the config seperately
[02:18] <tanjir> check in Synaptic manager
[02:19] <DVA5912> damn the cd-ripping on ubuntu isnt like windows at all. its worse.... windows didnt have the cratching that ubuntu is doing
[02:19] <mrwes> billisnice2, use IPP, Internet Printing Protocol
[02:20] <mrwes> DVA5912, I beg to differ
[02:20] <DVA5912> Three of my cds are worse that windows' copy
[02:20] <mrwes> billisnice2, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkPrintingWithUbuntu
[02:21] <tanjir> DVA5912: buy cd-rippers using money, u will get better ones.
[02:21] <mrwes> DVA5912, audio cd's?
[02:21] <ncfi1013_> DVA5912: brasero and k3b the two best w/ no ubuntu crashing
[02:21] <DVA5912> mrwes: yes
[02:21] <DVA5912> ncfi1013_: im using K3b
[02:21] <mrwes> DVA5912, look into ABCDE, it's commmand line, but a very good CD ripper
[02:21] <mrwes> DVA5912, lemme get you a link
[02:21] <ncfi1013_> then try brasero
[02:21] <billisnice2> did 9.03 add print change?
[02:22] <mint3> Are there any freenode Staffs here ?
[02:22] <gartral> how do i start an X connection over ssh?
[02:22] <mrwes> DVA5912, http://www.andrews-corner.org/abcde.html
[02:22] <DVA5912> mrwes il check it out
[02:22] <jdu> gartral, for a single app or the whole session?
[02:22] <gartral> jdu: ..
[02:23] <mrwes> DVA5912, definitely worth it
[02:23] <eseven73> mint3, try asking in #freenode
[02:23] <J-_> Can I use chown to configure, "Others - Folder Access" too instead of just owner and group?
[02:23] <gartral> jdu: all.. *
[02:23] <tokyoahead> hi guys, I am having trouble setting up ubuntu on a new laptop. I am getting a black screen after the left-right-left hovering progress bar. It does not seem to be a xserver config issue (tried thereconfigure, does not change anything)
[02:23] <bastidrazor> J-_, chmod
[02:23] <tokyoahead> can someone give me hints how to debug this? I do not know where to start
[02:23] <mrwes> DVA5912, it's in the repositories too, and that site has the config files for ya
[02:23] <jdu> gartral, so for running an app:  ssh -X user@ip     then just type the app name.
[02:24] <tokyoahead> hi guys, I am having trouble setting up ubuntu on a new laptop. I am getting a black screen after the left-right-left hovering progress bar. It does not seem to be a xserver config issue (tried thereconfigure, does not change anything)
[02:24] <witcher> how do you change the directory to root?
[02:24] <tokyoahead> can someone give me hints how to debug this? I do not know where to start
[02:24] <mrwes> witcher, cd /
[02:24] <jdu> gartral, then for the whole session.  You can use the xdmcp protocal tunneled through ssh.  There are some tutorials on that.
[02:24] <tanjir> tokyoahead: do you have intel chipset for graphics?
[02:24] <ncfi1013_> does anybody here have an ipod? what gen is it? what op sys are you using? what music player do you use? do you use rockbox or the default apple software?
[02:24] <tokyoahead> tanjir
[02:24] <gartral> jdu: i using putty on win to log in...
[02:24] <tokyoahead> tanjir yes
[02:25] <mint3> i use rockbox , ncfi1013_. got itouch
[02:25] <witcher> put that infront?
[02:25] <mrwes> ncfi1013_, I have a 120gb classic and I use it with Rhthymbox
[02:25] <jdu> gartral, ok.  Install cygwin/X
[02:25] <tanjir> tokyoahead: there are some known issue with intel chipset... google for intel graphics card, intel
[02:25] <gartral> jdu: i was trying to set up freenx
[02:25] <ncfi1013_> would rockbox work on a 3rd gen ipod nano mint3?
[02:25] <DVA5912> wo wo. one track 35 MB?!
[02:26] <gartral> ncfi1013_: no
[02:26] <witcher> ok where do you change the directory?
[02:26] <tokyoahead> tanjir: can you give me a hint how I know that it IS the graphics card? the liveCD is working just fine
[02:26] <mrwes> DVA5912, ?
[02:26] <J-_> What chmod permission will let Owner be Root, and have create and delete files as option, Group <user> as access files, and Others have no folder access?
[02:27] <ncfi1013_> gartral there is a dl link on the rockbox site for my ipod
[02:27] <Sky3RN> http://www.lignorance.fr/viewart.php?art=26
[02:27] <Sky3RN> Arf.
[02:27] <DVA5912> ah nvm mrwes
[02:27] <tanjir> tokyoahead: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/IntelPerformance
[02:27] <jdu> gardar, I don't have experience with freenx, though cygwin/x would allow you to run X apps (that are running on ubuntu) and have them display on a windows box.
[02:27] <J-_> !chmod
[02:27] <bastidrazor> J-_, is it a folder or just a file?
[02:28] <gartral> ncfi1013_: nano... not mini. sorry, yes it does, but to install it, you need to sudo the rbutil
[02:28] <witcher> is ther a site that i can learn this OS faster?
[02:28] <bastidrazor> J-_, you can also type man chmod and man chown
[02:28] <Flannel> witcher: help.ubuntu.com
[02:28] <witcher> oh lol
[02:28] <witcher> ty
[02:28] <tokyoahead> tanjir thanks
[02:28] <ncfi1013_> so what do any of you suggest since my ipod is not working with any media player i have
[02:28] <Flannel> witcher: It walks you through most of the stuff you'll need to know to accomplish most everyday tasks
[02:28] <ncfi1013_> !rbutil
[02:28] <mrwes> ncfi1013_, 3rd gen nano?
[02:29] <witcher> kool ty flannel
[02:29] <gartral> ncfi1013_: /j #rockbox
[02:29] <ncfi1013_> mrwes yes
[02:29] <J-_> bastidrazor: I'd want to recursively do it with folder and files.
[02:30] <ncfi1013_> gartral what is rbutil?
[02:30] <jdu> J-_,  the -R option to do something with chmod or chown recursively
[02:30] <bastidrazor> J-_, folders need to be executable but most files don't so you'll need to change the file permissions separately. chmod -R 750 folder
[02:30] <ncfi1013_> just "sudo rbutil"?
[02:31] <gartral> ncfi1013_: the recommended way to install rockbox
[02:31] <mrwes> ncfi1013_, you've tried Amarok?
[02:31] <bastidrazor> J-_, chown -R root folder
[02:31] <gartral> ncfi1013_: sudo /path/to/rbutil
[02:31] <ncfi1013_> mrwes yes 1 and 2
[02:31]  * DVA5912 thinks he needs to get his perscription checked. chown == clown??
[02:32] <mrwes> ncfi1013_, http://maketecheasier.com/how-to-sync-amarok-with-ipod-classic-3rd-generation-ipod-nano/2008/03/10
[02:32] <licky654> i seem to have messed up my nvidia x sever and now it says i dont have any screens attached
[02:33] <tokyoahead> tanjir not sure if this applies though.,... the issue is that it does not start up anything at all. I cannot even switch with ctrl-Fx to another shell when it freezes. can I somehow tell linux not to start X at all so I can see if it boots alright in the first placce?
[02:33] <JPratt> Last night i was havin issues with audio not playing with my DVD's now it is but it laggs my sysyem up Hardcore
[02:33] <licky654> and im sitting in the terminal trying to edit the conf file or reinstall it but nothing seemes to work, all i get is warning cannot open display
[02:33] <KyleK> !lts
[02:33] <KyleK> hardy is the lts right?
[02:33] <ncfi1013_> gartral what path do i type in or is it just "sudo  /path/to/rbutil"?
[02:33] <eseven73> yes KyleK
[02:33] <JPratt> Kylek Yes
[02:34] <KyleK> thx
[02:34] <gartral> ncfi1013_: did you download it?
[02:34] <licky654> how can i remvoe the xsever and reinstal it
[02:34] <licky654> from the terminal
[02:34] <mrwes> ncfi1013_, roxbox is the LAST resort, IMHO
[02:34] <jdu> licky654, to restore basic config:  sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[02:34] <JPratt> Last night i was havin issues with audio not playing with my DVD's now it is but it laggs my sysyem up Hardcore any ideas people?
[02:35] <ncfi1013_> no gartral
[02:35] <J-_> I think I want chmod 640
[02:35] <unforgiven512> where are the devices and configuration files for blueman and/or bluez stored?
[02:35] <licky654> i think this occoured when i activated version 173 after having activated 180
[02:36] <KyleK> J-_: rw-r----?
[02:36] <licky654> i thought i could just swap which drivers were active
[02:36] <ncfi1013_> mrwes i read in the rockbox manual that i can restore the ipod back to its original software if i dont want rockbox on it anymore is that true?
[02:36] <jdu> licky654, you you looked into editing xorg.conf to make sure it matches what drivers you are using?
[02:36] <J-_> Root: Read & Write | User: Read | Everyone Else: None
[02:36] <jdu> s/you/have/
[02:36] <mrwes> ncfi1013_, dunno...ever used rockbox
[02:37] <JPratt> I prefer my reg iPod Firmware and care not for other Firmwares
[02:37] <mrwes> same here
[02:37] <gartral> ncfi1013_: ncfi1013_ yes, but take it too rockbox's chat, type /j #rockbox in your message box
[02:37] <pepperjack> ncfi1013_: it is easy enough to find the firmware on the net if you want to restore.  i have rockbox and it works perfectly but.. id probably just leave the apple firmware on it if given the choice today
[02:37] <practical> hi, I want to remove "a program is not responding" feature when I shutdown
[02:38] <JPratt> Last night i was havin issues with audio not playing with my DVD's now it is but it laggs my sysyem up Hardcore any ideas people?
[02:38] <erichammond> Is there a quick pointer to the recommended way to set up encrypted boot disk under Jaunty?  I've done this on older Ubuntu, but am hoping it's a bit easier these days.
[02:39] <tokyoahead> guys how can I tell linux not to boot the Xserver on start so I can debug some problem with it while starting up? I can start it in recovery mode but not normall, it always crashes after the progress bar screen
[02:40] <office> turn off gdm
[02:40] <what_if> I have installed 4gb ram but Ubuntu (yes 64bit) only shows 3gb. What cuold cause this ?
[02:40] <tokyoahead> office: was that for me? how do I do that?
[02:40] <coolkourt> I cant even lie this is the best link i read all day
[02:40] <coolkourt> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LinuxFilesystemTreeOverview
[02:40] <jdu> tokyoahead, go to /etc/rc.2  and read the README.  Then turn off gdm like office said using those instructions.
[02:40] <tokyoahead> jdu:  ok thanks
[02:41] <JPratt> Last night i was havin issues with audio not playing with my DVD's now it is but it laggs my sysyem up Hardcore << Help please?
[02:41] <licky654> jdu: i couldnt edit the xconf file, it came up witht eh display error 'couldnt detect displays'
[02:41] <jdu> tokyoahead, you can then turn off gdm in your current session:  sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[02:41] <Decepticon> how can i cut down on iowait cpu usage?
[02:42] <jdu> licky654, odd.  So have you tried restoring the default config?
[02:46] <tokyoahead> jdu: ok, but it seems not to help. there is a screen after bootin that shows the ubuntu-logo and some hovering progress-bar. after that it simply switches to black and is stuck there. How can I switch off that screen so I can see what happens behind it?
[02:47] <jdu> tokyoahead, hit ctrl+alt+f1 during boot.   the splash screen is independent of X.org
[02:47] <practical> tokyoahead: alt+ctrl+F8
[02:48] <abalone> (I've been blabbering about this on the forum, but:) Where do I configure the keyboard (epsecially layout, repeat delay/rate) for X (in general, not KDE, not GNOME, ...)? It looks like xorg.conf InputDevice sections are ignored
[02:48] <jdu> tokyoahead, to turn it off completely., remove   splash   from the appropriate line in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[02:49] <`brandon`> i am trying to install pearpc-0.4 (a MAC emulator) and it says , Checking for xOpenDisplay in -lx11 and i need XOpenDisplay can anyone help me out please.
[02:49] <jdu> practical, is that better?  I don't remember there being anything on tty8 last time I checked.
[02:49] <tokyoahead> jdu: there is no "splash"...
[02:49] <jdu> abalone, have you looked into xmodmap
[02:50] <gartral> #ubuntu-offtopic
[02:50] <jdu> tokyoahead, really? let me check something out.
[02:50] <lucax> i have problems with flash video on jaunty--- any workarround to this issue? video stops and starts pauses and continues... dont know what to do...
[02:50] <tokyoahead> ok anbyhow now when I press ctral-alt -f1 I see a warning - Gave up waiting for the root device
[02:51] <tokyoahead> jdu there is a 'quiet' but removing this does not help either
[02:51] <abalone> jdu, no. I have an setxkbmap command that activates my layout, but isn't there a conf file for this anymore?
[02:52] <lucax> flas problems ubuntu jaunty
[02:52] <jdu> tokyoahead, appears to have changed in jaunty. You can assign the default options further up in the file though.
[02:53] <`brandon`> i am trying to install pearpc-0.4 (a MAC emulator) and it says , Checking for xOpenDisplay in -lx11 and i need XOpenDisplayor lx11, can anyone help me out please.
[02:53] <jdu> abalone, there are multiple files that define the layouts etc.  You can create a .Xmodmap file as well.
[02:54] <abalone> The thing is that I already have a working layout, I just don't know how to make X use it (it always uses "de" and I have no idea where it's getting that "instruction" from)
[02:54] <tokyoahead> jdu: ok will check menu.lst
[02:55] <jdu> tokyoahead, but clicking the combinations for virtual terminals mentioned earlier will cause it to disappar.
[02:55] <Pafs321> hi! yesterday i got a tip from someone here (sorry i forgot his/her nickname) about gparted, so i used it, and repartionated my Hd, after the partioning was done, i logged on windows, and thought it was too slow.. i defragged it, and got 40gb (i never thought i'd get more than 100mb).. so i think gparted rearrenged my files on linux too.. so isn't there the risk that linux got fragmented?
[02:56] <c0ntract0r> Do I have to recompile the kernel to remove the bluetooth config I see in Dmesg? I've uninstalled all the BT packages?
[02:56] <pepperjack> Pafs321: the linux file system automatically handles fragmentation so its not something you need to manually correct
[02:56] <tokyoahead> jdu yes that worked anyhow

[02:58] <c0ntract0r> nightdrever, it would be easier if i knew what kind of video card u had

[02:59] <eseven73> mootooler, theres a couple firefox download managers, DownThemAll and FlashGot other than that im not sure what you mean by 'download managers'
[03:00] <abalone> jdu: basically, I'd like to find out where the "default" keyb layout, repeat rate, repeat delay and such are set up. Before 9.04, I could use xorg.conf. Now?
[03:00]  * wolfwalker dumps milk all over gotsanity_ and runs away laughing insanely.
[03:01] <Guest35152> kmplot only allows to plot FUNCTION but i'd like to plot a circle for example x^2+y^2=1, is there a program in the repositories (preferably) that would allow me to do so?
[03:01] <wolfwalker> I'm looking into going completely wireless internet, with Verizon USB modem.  Any word on which of Verizon's modems work better with Ubuntu 9.04?  I've done my homework and googled six ways from Sunday, but come up dry.
[03:02] <jdu> abalone, I think it is more like before 8.04, right? I am not sure
[03:02]  * jdu is looking
[03:02] <abalone> jdu: maybe before 8.10
[03:03] <pan_> what up with the volume
[03:03] <pan_> i have it all the way up.
[03:03] <pan_> and it's not even loud
[03:03] <abalone> ...or... I don't know since when.
[03:03] <Pafs321> thanks for the link ubottu! it really helped!
[03:03] <ericjoseph> try alsamixer pan
[03:03] <abalone> didn't have 8.10 for long, basically went from 8.04 to 9.04 within weeks
[03:03] <eseven73> Pafs321, ubottu is a bot.

[03:05] <Wolfman2000> evenign.  due to...slight insanity, I've re-installed nginx on my ubuntu box.  However, it's not installing the /etc/init.d script, probably due to my previous attempts at using nginx source.  Would anyone know where I can get the default init.d/nginx file aptitude is supposed to provide?
[03:05] <mootooler> eseven73 : i got a bad story with download manager addon of firefox
[03:05] <mootooler> so i want something desktop gui
[03:06] <bolice> ?
[03:06] <mootooler> like Flash Get or FDM in windows
[03:06] <eseven73> mootooler, hmmm not sure then, maybe try searching google for download managers
[03:08] <jdu> abalone, sorry.  I am not sure where they are located now. If you have done it with xorg.conf before, you might look at: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Input
[03:08] <jdu> wget    works well to download files
[03:09] <bolice> can i use flash get at ubuntu?
[03:09] <wolfwalker> I'm looking into going completely wireless internet, with Verizon USB modem.  Any word on which of Verizon's modems work better with Ubuntu 9.04?  I've done my homework and googled six ways from Sunday, but come up dry.
[03:09] <Ursinha> bolice, no, but there's an firefox extension called down them all that's good too
[03:09] <abalone> jdu: thank you, that stuff about "Input Configuration with HAL" might be it. Thank you for your help !
[03:09] <eseven73> mootooler, I found d4x, and kget might try those

[03:10] <mootooler> eseven73: i'll check it out
[03:10] <dominoeffekt> Hi im new to Ubuntu. I was wondering if i have to install chipset and stuff like that. gfx drivers and so on.. Everything seems to run pretty good.
[03:10] <DaZ> dominoeffekt: graphic card only
[03:11] <dominoeffekt> okey!:)
[03:11] <dominoeffekt> thank u!
[03:11] <dassouki> there's a humming sound in playback, how can i get rid of it. my soundcard is external and is connected to a mixer
[03:11] <dominoeffekt> btw!:D know a good way to see what graphik card i have?
[03:11] <th0r> Neontiger: I have been using devede for that purpose
[03:11] <Neontiger> thanks
[03:11] <DaZ> dominoeffekt: lspci ;f
[03:12] <dominoeffekt> whats that?
[03:12] <Pafs321> dassouki: i had that a couple days ago.. i reboot.. and it was gone
[03:12] <DaZ> type it in the console
[03:12] <erichammond> I guess I'll start here and see how far I get installing Jaunty with an ecrypted boot disk: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedFilesystems
[03:12] <dominoeffekt> ok thaks
[03:12] <Dr_Willis> I like DeVeDe - it works very well.. just gotta accept its limitations.. and the awkwardness of some features.
[03:12] <losher> Wolfman2000: aptitude should have downloaded a .deb file for nginx and put it in /var/cache/apt/archives. It might contain the init.d script. If it does. you should be able to pull it out of the .deb using dpkg. But a better solution might be to backup any nginx config files and then purge the package and reinstall it from scratch, since who knows what else is missing?
[03:13] <dominoeffekt> GA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 0c)
[03:13] <dominoeffekt>  this is the graphik carD?
[03:13] <x33b> yes, thats it
[03:13] <lstarnes> dominoeffekt: looks like it
[03:13] <lvlefisto> What is the easiest source version control system to install to my ubuntu?
[03:13] <dominoeffekt> ok thanks
[03:13] <myself> is it possible to increase the max volume in the control panel or somehow in ubuntu?
[03:13] <myself> its not that high, would like it to be a bit higher
[03:14] <lstarnes> lvlefisto: I usually use bzr, but svn is also popular.  git, hg, and cvs are also sometimes used
[03:14] <lvlefisto> lstarnes: thanks, i'll check out those
[03:14] <fitter> xD
[03:14] <lvlefisto> fitter?
[03:14] <fitter> somebody know how use the Nmap ?
[03:15] <lstarnes> lvlefisto: of those, svn is probably most popular
[03:15] <lstarnes> fitter: man nmap
[03:15] <DaZ> fitter: man nmap
[03:15] <DaZ> damn
[03:15] <eseven73> yea get zenmap , GUI for nmap
[03:15] <eseven73> :P
[03:15] <lvlefisto> lstarnes: and, what is the easiest to install and manage?
[03:15] <gonzaloaf> hello, I'm using ubuntu 9.04, is there a way to use amarok1 ?
[03:15] <quinten> so, i did the last upgrade, and now evolution/gnome panel hangs when i try to access calendar
[03:15] <lstarnes> lvlefisto: they're all easy to install through the package manager
[03:15] <losher> lstarnes, lvlfisto: I agree, svn...
[03:15] <quinten> until i kill evolution-data-server
[03:15] <Guest19220> hi all
[03:16] <lstarnes> lvlefisto: svn can be tricky, but bzr is pretty easy
[03:16] <quinten> is the problem w/ evolution data server causing hang known? how to fix?
[03:16] <Guest19220> is there an applet for services in Ubuntu 9.04?
[03:16] <lvlefisto> lstarnes: thanks, that is very helpful
[03:17] <J-_> lwould chmod 640 not make my HDD work?
[03:17] <J-_> I think I just either killed my HDD, or my external case is dead.
[03:17] <Wolfman2000> losher: got it fixed.  thanks
[03:18] <fitter> 10x guys :)
[03:18] <mib_crcvm265> hello
[03:18] <jdu> J-_ all directories must be executable to access them.
[03:18] <mib_crcvm265> hello?
[03:19] <mib_crcvm265> ah, it is now responding
[03:19] <mib_crcvm265> cool
[03:19] <mib_crcvm265> anyone see this though?
[03:19] <myself> is it possible to increase the max volume in the control panel or somehow in ubuntu?
[03:19] <myself> its not that high, would like it to be a bit higher
[03:20] <mib_crcvm265> can anyone help me set up an ftp server or try to understand what I'm doing wrong?
[03:20] <jdu> J-_, so if you made the permissions _everything_ rw-r--r-- then you wouldn't be able to access anything because the directories wouldn't work.
[03:20] <J-_> jdu: I made /media/exteral which is my external drive 640. Is there anyway to ... fix it? The drive won't even mount now.
[03:20] <ericjoseph> did you try alsamixer from the command prompt myself?
[03:20] <J-_> :(
[03:20] <myself> nah,  how do i use that command?
[03:20] <pepperjack> myself: see what alsamixer is set to in terminal
[03:20] <ericjoseph> just type in alsamixer and then put up all the volume controls
[03:21] <jdu> J-_, did you say which filesystem it is?
[03:21] <J-_> jdu: It's ext3
[03:21] <wolfwalker> I'm looking into going completely wireless internet, with Verizon USB modem.  Any word on which of Verizon's modems work better with Ubuntu 9.04?  I've done my homework and googled six ways from Sunday, but come up dry.
[03:21] <eseven73> myself, Applications>Accessories>Terminal then type alsamixer
[03:21] <AnythingJe> I'm trying to do a while loop until my command is successful, I don't quite have the right syntax, how do I fix this:
[03:21] <AnythingJe> while [[ cryptsetup create TowerRaid /dev/md0 ]]
[03:21] <jdu> J-_, and you can't mount it?
[03:21] <J-_> jdu: no
[03:21] <myself> hmm the master is at 100
[03:22] <Chowder> I downloaded a ttf from a website. How do I install it?
[03:22] <myself> i wanted it to be a bit higher than that
[03:22] <pepperjack> wolfwalker: sure you want verizon wireless?  i think youll regret it when dsl is so cheap
[03:22]  * jdu looks up ext3 mount options
[03:22] <eseven73> !fonts | Chowder
[03:22] <mcrandello> is there anyway to actually-factually block modules from loading? I've put all the parallel port related ones in blacklist.conf, did the whole depmod/mkinitramfs thing and for some reason they insist on being in there
[03:22] <Chowder> thanks
[03:22] <tokyoahead> guys I have a acer 3810T and want to run linux on it... wireless lan works fine, but wired lan does not seem to be recognized... here are the specs... how should I proceed trying to recognize the Lan adapter? http://www.acer.co.uk/acer/product.do?LanguageISOCtxParam=en&inu49e.current.c2att92=122&link=ln376e&CountryISOCtxParam=UK&kcond47e.c2att92=122&rcond185e.c2att101=58846&rcond159e.att21k=1&rcond160e.c2att101=58846&rcond161e.c2att101=58846&kcond48e.c
[03:23] <pepperjack> mcrandello: cd /etc/modprobe.d and edit blacklist
[03:23] <mcrandello> pepperjack: yep, did that
[03:23] <pepperjack> mcrandello: yeah just noticed ;p
[03:23] <mcrandello> it got rid of a few things
[03:23] <jonathon_> how do i bot into dsl without the swap on
[03:23] <tokyoahead> sorry, once again the link but shorter: http://tinyurl.com/pwxcvc
[03:23] <pepperjack> mcrandello: what did you put in blacklist file?  what syntax
[03:24] <mcrandello> the worst of it is- the only place I even have to plug a printer in on this thing is the usb port, like it should be in any post fin-de-cicle system
[03:24] <eseven73> dsl? this is for Ubuntu jonathon_
[03:24] <|freddy|> tokyoahead: chipset?
[03:24] <wolfwalker> pepperjack my DSL is unstable at best.  Stupid telephone company........
[03:24] <mcrandello> pepperjack: blacklist <modulename> #one per line
[03:24] <pepperjack> mcrandello: oh. well that should do it...
[03:24] <jonathon_> please im sorry but my other computer doesnt meet the specs to run ubuntu
[03:24] <wolfwalker> I don't mind if someone just RTFMs me.  I'll read a manual.  But I've googled and can't find anything.
[03:24] <mcrandello> lp, ppdev parport
[03:24] <tokyoahead> freddy intel presumably
[03:25] <jdu> J-_, so set  dmask=0022 as a boot option and try.
[03:25] <|freddy|> wolfwalker: about?
[03:25] <Jihui_Choi> I changed some in sources.list in live cd, but after I install ubuntu using my own live cd, sources.list is recovered to the default one.
[03:25] <wolfwalker> |freddy|
[03:25] <pepperjack> jonathon_: /join #ubuntu-offtopic  real quick
[03:25] <wolfwalker> I'm looking into going completely wireless internet, with Verizon USB modem.  Any word on which of Verizon's modems work better with Ubuntu 9.04?  I've done my homework and googled six ways from Sunday, but come up dry.
[03:25] <Jihui_Choi> How can I use my own sources.list?
[03:25] <J-_> jdu: boot option? How?
[03:25] <mcrandello> nothing else appears to be using them, as they shouldn't since they don't actually exist
[03:25] <VoodooDance> howdy all
[03:25] <j03lar50n> so i've read installing (dual boot) a 64-bit Ubuntu and a 32-bit XP is possible - can anyone confirm?
[03:25] <eseven73> "RTFM" is against Ubuntu's CoC, wolfwalker so no we won't "RTFM" to you sorry :)
[03:26] <jdu> J-_, mount -t ext3 -o dmask=0022 /dev/sdb1 /mnt/point
[03:26] <VoodooDance> I have jaunty and am trying to use instanbul which worked fine last version of Ubuntu.  Now I get a grainy pixelated ogg when I record.  Anyone have this issue?
[03:26] <jdu> J-_, the device and the mount point may need to change.
[03:26] <Sarai> !hi | VoodooDance
[03:26] <Sarai> :)
[03:26] <eseven73> VoodooDance, no, but have you tried wink?
[03:26] <mcrandello> I wouldn't even worry about the things except for some reason I continually have a shortage of irq's on this system (ati ixp chipset)
[03:26] <eseven73> !info wink
[03:26] <jdu> J-_, so you can put various mount options after the -o with commas inbetween each
[03:27] <|freddy|> wolfwalker: im sorry, know nadda about verizon and the modems they sell
[03:27] <|freddy|> :(
[03:27] <VoodooDance> eseven73, no what is wink?
[03:27] <|freddy|> imma at afghanistan...so no verizon here
[03:27] <Jihui_Choi> Is anyone who has an experience for making live cd iso?
[03:27] <J-_> jdu: mount point doesn't exist. I guess I have to make it?
[03:27] <jdu> J-_, yes
[03:27] <eseven73> !wink > VoodooDance
[03:27] <jdu> J-_, mkdir /mnt/point     all this requires root (so sudo)
[03:27] <|freddy|> Jihui_Choi: GUI or thru terminal?
[03:28] <J-_> jdu: mount: special device /dev/sdb1 does not exist
[03:28] <mcrandello> someone really ought to make www.whatdoallthesemodulesdoanyway.com
[03:28] <losher> wolfwalker: taken a look at dslreports.com?
[03:28] <Jihui_Choi> |freddy|: I use uck, but I use terminal
[03:28] <jdu> J-_, that was just a guess.  This is an external drive?
[03:28] <mcrandello> they'd make a killing on google adwords
[03:28] <Jihui_Choi> not gui
[03:28] <|freddy|> why dont you use brasero?
[03:28] <|freddy|> it works good
[03:28] <mcrandello> I mean, what is a tileblit? it sounds vaguely dirty
[03:28] <J-_> jdu: Yes
[03:29] <J-_> jdu: I also think I assinged a UUID.
[03:29] <jdu> J-_, does it only have one filesystem on it or multiple?
[03:29] <J-_> jdu: Just one.
[03:29] <Jihui_Choi> anyway I check there is my own sources.list in my live cd. But when I install using it, the sourcelist is changed to the default.
[03:29] <mcrandello> just a little page with each module name listed, what device it drives and what you possibly lose if you blacklist it
[03:29] <Jihui_Choi> |freddy|: I'm making livd cd for korean people.
[03:29] <Jihui_Choi> not for me. :)
[03:30] <jdu> jdu, you may be able to use that, I guess.  But when you attached the drive, a device should have appeared in /dev.   It is probably /dev/sdc1 if it is not /dev/sdb1
[03:30] <jdu> J-_, that was meant to you obviously.
[03:30] <J-_> jdu: Yes.
[03:30] <jdu> J-_, at any rate.  you can do   ls /dev | grep sd
[03:31] <jdu> J-_, to see what hard drive devices are available.
[03:31] <Jihui_Choi> Is there any channel for this? live cd or developers
[03:31] <jdu> J
[03:31] <jdu> J-_, or probably just do UUID=blabla  instead.
[03:32] <jdu> J-_, so to clarify:  the dmask=0022 option should instruct the permissions of directories to be 755.
[03:33] <Piet> Jihui_Choi: the process you are most likely trying to do is called "remastering".
[03:33] <J-_> jdu: weird. Let me pastebin my fstab. there's an error on line 16
[03:33] <jdu> ok
[03:33] <Piet> Jihui_Choi: that's basically creating a modified copy of an existing live cd
[03:34] <J-_> jdu: http://pastebin.ca/1424304
[03:34] <wolfwalker> Oh well, thanks anyway.
[03:34] <ThomasHC> Hello, I am looking for someone who knows where I can get free inserts for a DVD case about Ubuntu?
[03:34] <Piet> Jihui_Choi: if you search an internet search engine for 'remaster' and 'ubuntu you should find some instructions
[03:34] <Jihui_Choi> Piet: But I checked there is a modified copy in my distro.
[03:35] <c0ntract0r> to install a graphics card driver is sudo dpkg -i file.deb right?
[03:35] <losher> Jihui_Choi: remastersys builds live cds and has a support forum at http://loscompanion.com/forums/index.php?board=58.0/
[03:35] <Jihui_Choi> I think when I install ubuntu, installing system backup a modified copy and make the default one
[03:35] <Piet> Jihui_Choi: a modified copy of what in which distro?
[03:35] <jdu> J-_, the $ should not be there.  Change it to two zeros with a space inbetween.
[03:35] <Jihui_Choi> Piet: in the distro which I made.
[03:36] <J-_> jdu: I guess I should restart now then?
[03:36] <J-_> jdu: Looks like a totally different problem though.
[03:36] <myself> sdasdsddasdsdadadad :)
[03:36] <Piet> Jihui_Choi: uuh, i think you're loosing me
[03:36] <jdu> J-_, no
[03:36] <J-_> jdu: hmm
[03:36] <jdu> J-_, do swapoff then swapon
[03:36] <Jihui_Choi> I made a distro by myself. and I modified the sources.list.
[03:36] <jdu> J-_, I meant no to restarting
[03:36] <dominoeffekt>  :( I cant find the driver for  Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller. ny one know where i can find it?
[03:37] <jdu> J-_, so sudo swapoff; sudo swapon -a
[03:37] <jdu> J-_, so is either /dev/sda4 or /dev/sda2 the drive that you can't access?
[03:37] <J-_> jdu: I just did 2 commands, "sudo swapoff -a" and "swapon -a"
[03:38] <jdu> J-_, then do    swapon -s
[03:38] <jdu> J-_, if something appears, then you know that swap is working.
[03:38] <|freddy|> aptana wont run on this distro? anyone have heard something about it?
[03:38] <Piet> dominoeffekt: should be intelfb
[03:39] <dominoeffekt> Piet:  intelfb?
[03:39] <salvador> adasdads
[03:39] <J-_> jdu: The problem isn't with swap though. I tried to exit nano. I had /etc/fstab up, after it closed it said there was an error on like 16. Which is totally unrelated since my swap is on my internal drive rather than my external.
[03:39] <Piet> dominoeffekt: well quoted
[03:39] <Linuz2009> can you tune-up ubuntu?
[03:39] <mac9416> I want to install the proprietary Nvidia drivers for 9600 GT. Is nvidia-glx-180 what I need? Do I also need nvidia-180-kernel-source?
[03:39] <Noble> Please somebody. I am addicted to Counter Strike. I need somebody to take my account.
[03:39] <J-_> jdu: And, it looks like my external drive isn't even in fstab.
[03:40] <jdu> J-_, correct, but now swap is fixed because it must have gotten messed up when editing fstab
[03:40] <AnythingJe> how can I do a while loop while a given command fails... like "while [ mount /mnt/cdrom ]".... keep doing the while loop until the command works?
[03:40] <dominoeffekt> Piet:  sry. i do not know what u mean by intelfb.  I got ubuntu to day. always been running windows. so i do not understand mutch about how to install and sutch
[03:40] <J-_> jdu: Or, someone got into my computer somehow and changed stuff.
[03:40] <jdu> J-_, so to discover what device it is:  plug it in.  run:  sudo parted          then at the prompt:  print all
[03:40] <x33b> dominoe, can you see your desktop?
[03:41] <Piet> Linuz2009: you can disable daemons you don't need, change to a less resource hungry window manager, remove unneeded applications etc.
[03:41] <J-_> jdu: Yeah the device isn't there. :)
[03:41] <Linuz2009> Piet: what's a daemon?
[03:41] <dominoeffekt> x33b:  yes
[03:41] <evanrmurphy> Hi, I'm trying to get FireGPG's sign and encrypt feature to work with Gmail, and I've made it do so with a fresh Firefox profile. I'm trying to isolate what could be the problem on my original profile, and so I've removed every other add-on (except for FireGPG), but it still doesn't work. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
[03:41] <jdu> J-_, if you want to be paranoid... does some one know your password?  at any rate.  with the previous command you will get a listing of all your partitions.  Find the one that matches the filesystem you want to mount.
[03:41] <Piet> Linuz2009: a background process
[03:42] <x33b> Dominoe - is it behaving strange? Like graphic glictches? or does it seem to be working ok?
[03:42] <Piet> dominoeffekt: oh i see. intelfb is the name of a linux driver module.
[03:42] <mac9416> I want to install the proprietary Nvidia drivers for 9600 GT. Is nvidia-glx-180 what I need? Do I also need nvidia-180-kernel-source?
[03:42] <dominoeffekt> x33b:  acually its fine
[03:42] <x33b> then you don't need a driver :D
[03:42] <dominoeffekt> sure? :D
[03:42] <Piet> dominoeffekt: it should already come with ubuntu, if i'm not mistaken.
[03:42] <jdu> J-_, It will say:  Disk /dev/sXX   note what XX is.       Then note the partition number below.
[03:42] <x33b> dominoe - yes, ubuntu comes with the drivers ready to go
[03:43] <jdu> J-_, with that info, you can retry the mount command.
[03:43] <dominoeffekt> Ah!:D damn. you guys made my day!:d
[03:43] <J-_> jdu: No one knows my password, no. My partition I want isn't listed there. I'm thinking the drive is fried, or the external case is garbage.
[03:43] <dominoeffekt> hah thanks!:D
[03:43] <Linuz2009> Piet: so you meaning turning, does that imply that I need to switch to one color similar process as windows?
[03:43] <jdu> J-_, perhaps.  But you said you chmod -R 644   right?
[03:43] <henninger> Hello @ all. I have a problem concerning my sound card. It seems, that the mixer doesn't work. I cannot watch movies with sound and at the same moment talk in skype or listen music... lspci says, its a 00:1e.2 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6Family) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 03)
[03:43] <henninger> right now I'm using ALSA in audio settings... Do some of you have an idea, how to make my sound ran?
[03:44] <J-_> jdu: chmod 640
[03:44] <jdu> J-_, If you did that. to the drive, you would have made it impossible to access, because directories must be executable.
[03:44] <galvanize> where are most of the applications stored?
[03:44] <Piet> Linuz2009: i read this sentence zwice but i don't get wgat you are trying to ask, sorry.
[03:44] <jdu> J-_, ok 640   the same result in this case.
[03:44] <Piet> Linuz2009: i read this sentence twice but i don't get what you are trying to ask, sorry.
[03:44] <jdu> J-_, directories should be 755
[03:44] <Piet> Linuz2009: and sorry for my bad spelling, too
[03:45] <erjimenez> Hello, how is everyone doing?
[03:45] <J_Wesker> Hi everyone! Nice friday night right?
[03:45] <J_Wesker> LoL
[03:45] <Linuz2009> Piet: okay let me put it this way, in windows you can turn to window classic to optimize speed and switch the background to gray or none but in ubuntu how can I turn off the background?
[03:45] <jdu> J-_, so, It seems odd that the disk would die right at that moment; much more likely you just need to mount it with dmask=0022 or similar
[03:45] <losher> galvanize: in /usr/bin. Why do you ask....?
[03:46] <Piet> henninger: if you can only use one audio application/output at a time, this is usually not a driver/hardware issue but you just lack asound server, such as pulseaudio
[03:46] <pepperjack> Linuz2009: there are many many options for this level of customization
[03:46] <galvanize> losher: I want right click and use oepn with...
[03:46] <galvanize> open*
[03:46] <J_Wesker> I'm having a problem with Apache 2, I'm getting a Forbbiden 403 on an local application and this is what I get on the browser
[03:46] <jdu> Linuz2009, change the background to a solid color.
[03:47] <J-_> jdu: Not sure if you seen, but prior to all of this I asked what permission my external drive would be... I wanted, root: read and write, user: read, everyone else: none. Put I didn't know it needed to be executeable. so I went with 640, in which I think I wanted 740.
[03:47] <J-_> jdu: can I mount with a UUID?
[03:47] <losher> galvanize: ok. But the menus are there so you don't have to do that, in general...
[03:47] <henninger> piet: ok, i never heard about this before... I'm gonna try that. Thanks so far :)
[03:47] <J-_> Actually, I don't even know the UUID.
[03:47] <jdu> J-_, yes.  Directories should be executable and files not ;(
[03:47] <J_Wesker> [Fri May 15 21:14:25 2009] [crit] [client <IP_ADDRESS>] (13)Permission denied: /home/jorge/.htaccess pcfg_openfile: unable to check htaccess file, ensure it is readable
[03:47] <pepperjack> Linuz2009: the desktop itself the desktop enviroment is gnome.  if you type ps -A in a terminal youll see gnome-session gnome-panel etc.  you can switch window managers and stilluse gnome or even choose to not use gnome but use xubuntu instead (xfce rather than gnome) or even a really slim window manager like icewm
[03:47] <J_Wesker> [Fri May 15 21:14:25 2009] [crit] [client <IP_ADDRESS>] (13)Permission denied: /home/jorge/.htaccess pcfg_openfile: unable to check htaccess file, ensure it is readable
[03:47] <FloodBot2> J_Wesker: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:48] <Piet> Linuz2009: ah, now I understand. yes, this is one thing you can do: you can deactivate compiz for example. this can alread remarkably increase speed of the window manager.
[03:48] <jdu> J-_, minimally in fstab, I have not ever used an UUID with a standard mount command.  Try!
[03:48] <galvanize> losher: right, but instead of downloading something and using it in an application I want to just open it withe application
[03:48] <J_Wesker> anyone any advice about apache 2 permissions?
[03:48] <Piet> Linuz2009: you can also change the background image or decrease the overall color depth
[03:48] <jdu> J-_, and I don't have any drives to test it on that are ext3
[03:48] <losher> galvanize: so is there a specific app you're trying to run?
[03:49] <jdu> J-_, that aren't already mounted.
[03:49] <J-_> jdu: I first need to find out the UUID, but if it's not mounted. I can't really. :P
[03:49] <galvanize> losher: yes, ktorrent. trying to open a torrent from firefox rather than downloading the .torrent and then opening ktorrent.
[03:49] <Piet> Linuz2009: but what I meant iniitally is that you can replace the complete window manager, known as gnome, by another which is less resource hungry.
[03:49] <J-_> I don't think I can anyway
[03:49] <Piet> Linuz2009: this can be fluxbox, openwm, wmii, ratware, or whatever.
[03:49] <jdu> J-_, I find it hard to believe you can't find the device name.  That is a prerequisite for the UUID with vol_id anyway, right?
[03:50] <jdu> J-_, assuming the drive works, something should appear either with parted  or in /dev when the drive is plugged in.
[03:50] <losher> galvanize: ok, you can open a terminal and type "which ktorrent". That will tell you exactly where ktorrent is...
[03:50] <Linuz2009> thanks everyone I get it now so is there also another way to tune-up ubuntu?
[03:51] <galvanize> losher: oh great thanks.
[03:51] <Classic> hello
[03:51] <jdu> J-_, sudo sfdisk -l   will give a list of partitions and their devices.
[03:51] <donald> does anybody know how help enable the temp sensors on a macbook 5,1?
[03:51] <Classic> guys, anyone has problems accessing ttys since jaunty?
[03:51] <Piet> Linuz2009: but before you start on "tweaking" you should be aware which changes actually make sense for your system. start by checking the current resource utilization
[03:51] <evanrmurphy> Hi, I'm trying to get FireGPG's sign and encrypt feature to work with Gmail, and I've made it do so with a fresh Firefox profile. I'm trying to isolate what could be the problem on my original profile, and so I've removed every other add-on (except for FireGPG), but it still doesn't work. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
[03:51] <|freddy|> when I excersise first thing in the morning is amazing cause im with energy the whole day.....but theres one thing I love about excersising at the end of the day.......I sleep like a fricking baby.....so..dont know wich one is better...
[03:51] <Linuz2009> Piet: how about the app remove orphans
[03:52] <jdu> Linuz2009, you might remove services you don't need.  bluetooth for example if you don't have it.
[03:52] <robin0800> jdu: Try blkid
[03:52] <ziroday> |freddy|: wrong room
[03:52] <|freddy|> wh00pps...
[03:52] <|freddy|> true
[03:52] <MacMoose> Is the default encoding for ubuntu utf8?
[03:52] <FloodBot2> !netsplit
[03:52] <jdu> robin0800, thanks
[03:52] <Piet> Linuz2009: this will free up some disk space and is no loss to do, so this is a good measure.
[03:53] <MacMoose> Is the default encoding for ubuntu utf8?
[03:53] <Classic> guys, anyone has problems accessing ttys since jaunty?
[03:53] <donald> hello, im new to ubuntu and i need help can anybody tell me where to start?
[03:53] <Linuz2009> Piet: then how can I remove services?
[03:53] <Classic> Donald, what do u need help with?
[03:53] <evanrmurphy> donald: Welcome to Ubuntu! What kind of help are you looking for?
[03:53] <jdu> Linuz2009, administration => services  I believe
[03:54] <losher> Classic: fwiw, I haven
[03:54] <donald> ok, i have the new macbook 5,1 the unibody one and i just installed ubuntu 9.10 on it and i need help enableing the sensors and fan stuff
[03:54] <losher> Classic: fwiw, I haven't seen anyone complain about tty access problems with jaunty....
[03:54] <thedoor> hi guys, somebody have a tutorial to install kiba-dock on jaunty?
[03:54] <jdu> J-_, so you can just run:  blkid
[03:54] <Classic> losher, maybe you can help me
[03:54] <donald> i have read n article on here but i dont understand some of the terms they use
[03:54] <Piet> Linuz2009: use one of the package managing frontends such as add/remove applications, synaptic, aptitude, apt-get, dpkg
[03:54] <MacMoose> or is the default encoding Latin1?
[03:55] <Classic> when i access ttys from gnome, my screen starts flashing but doesnt show ttys, even though they are there
[03:55] <J-_> jdu: hmm, yeah. Not there. :) I don't know dude. This external enclosure is under warranty, so I think I may take it back tomorrow and see if that's the verdict. Thanks for the help. :)
[03:55] <briancro`> donald: I don't have a macbook but I may know the terms.  What don't you understand?
[03:55] <losher> Classic: I can try, but the fact that I haven't seen any complaints about ttys doesn't make me an expert on them :-(
[03:55] <Classic> donald, what terms?
[03:55] <donald> ok hold on
[03:55] <evanrmurphy> donald: Feel free to link us to the article. I'm not very familiar with Macbook installs of Ubuntu, but I'm sure people do it.
[03:55] <sevodnya> MacMoose: it's utf-8, though some programs might use latin1
[03:55] <acm> how do I make ubuntu accept my root password for taskts that require sudo?
[03:55] <jdu> J-_, too bad it couldn't be fixed.  No problem, and good luck!
[03:55] <sevodnya> acm: you use your password, not root's
[03:56] <Classic> acm, you have to assign root password first before you can sudo
[03:56] <donald> well its at this link https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook5-1/Jaunty
[03:56] <Linuz2009> okay, I found my service settings and removing app is probably is a good method. I've installed Fslint in my computer that detects duplicate files, and remove orphan
[03:56] <williamd> FloodBot2 why?
[03:56] <MacMoose> sevodnya: So if I mount a volume without specifying any mount options utf8 gets used?
[03:56] <AlexD73> hi
[03:56] <jdu> Classic, rather sudo uses user password.
[03:56] <sevodnya> MacMoose: what filesystem?
[03:56] <acm> classic: i created a root password, but when i try to do priveleged tasks, it still only accepts my sudo password
[03:56] <MacMoose> sevodnya: NTFS
[03:57] <Classic> yea, you are right jdu
[03:57] <acm> i watnt to do admin tasks with my root pass
[03:57] <galvanize> donald: what don't you understand in the article?
[03:57] <sevodnya> MacMoose: and are you asking about file names, or the contents of the files themselves
[03:57] <Piet> williamd: Floodbot2 isn't going to respond to you
[03:57] <jjibn> hi all where can I learn some opensource technicals and get some info I find it is so amusing me
[03:57] <williamd> what is up
[03:57] <Classic> acm, thats how sudo works for me, I have to use root password
[03:57] <Piet> williamd: it's a bot, a dumb script
[03:57] <donald> i ran this sudo apt-get install applesmc-dkms and after that i got stuck
[03:57] <MacMoose> sevodnya: file names. If I specify uft8, it shows up fine. if I specify nothing, it shows corrupt characters, etc.
[03:57] <J-_> jdu: ... LOL. I was just fooling around with the power supply, and now ... the disk is spinning. I should have took notice at first. ;(
[03:57] <donald> like where it says to edit /etc/modules i dont get that
[03:57] <sebsebseb> jjibn: where can you learn about open source and free software?
[03:58] <jdu> J
[03:58] <Classic> acm, sudo means super user do so you have to use root password for that
[03:58] <MacMoose> sevodnya: I'm talking about chinese characters actually.
[03:58] <lstarnes> Classic: incorrect
[03:58] <jdu> J-_, one way to get a drive working... :)
[03:58] <panaggio1> i'm trying to create an ad-hoc connection between my notebook and my n800
[03:58] <lstarnes> Classic: it uses the password of the invoking user
[03:58] <acm> classic: i did sudo -i; passwd.
[03:58] <acm> i can log in as root
[03:58] <galvanize> donald: type exactly the next line in your terminal and it will open an editor, then paste the line below that into the editor and save.
[03:58] <lstarnes> Classic: it just requires that that user has access in /etc/sudoers or a group in that file
[03:58] <lstarnes> acm: you shouldn't do that
[03:58] <losher> Classic: lstarnes is right about the sudo stuff...
[03:58] <acm> classic: however when i try to open synaptic package manager, it wont accept my root pass
[03:58] <panaggio1> but by the time I enable my wireless interface, I have no internet anymore
[03:58] <donald> ok so first i enter the first line into the terminal
[03:59] <Linuz2009> Fslint had been reviewed as safe as KleanSweeper
[03:59] <Classic> so what you guys are saying, is sudo and at password prompt you put in regular user password?
[03:59] <acm> lstarnes: why?
[03:59] <sebsebseb> jjibn: http://www.gnu.org and go to philosphey section
[03:59] <galvanize> gksudo gedit /etc/modules
[03:59] <evanrmurphy> donald: Just so you know, if you're questions don't get resolved here, there is a subforum of Ubuntu Forums especially for Apple Users at http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=328 .
[03:59] <lstarnes> acm: it makes it easier to crack into the root account
[03:59] <lstarnes> Classic: yes
[03:59] <J-_> jdu: Weird. blkid shows: /dev/sdb1: SEC_TYPE="msdos" LABEL="KINGSTON" UUID="E0FD-1813" TYPE="vfat"
[03:59] <jdu> Classic, for better or worse, yes
[03:59] <williamd> hello
[03:59] <williamd> what is Linux
[03:59] <Classic> hm.... for me its root passwd somehow
[03:59] <williamd> jk
[03:59] <evanrmurphy> hi williamd
[03:59] <donald> then this came up
[03:59] <J-_> jdu: Is that normal when it's not executeable?
[03:59] <acm> its how i've been doing it for 15 years...
[03:59] <williamd> hello evanrmurphy
[03:59] <MacMoose> sevodnya: Any idea why specifying UTF8 works, but not specifying it gets wrong characters? I can only assume diffrent encoding?
[03:59] <acm> i dont want to start using sudo
[03:59] <donald> Reading package lists... Done
[03:59] <donald> Building dependency tree
[03:59] <donald> Reading state information... Done
[03:59] <donald> E: Couldn't find package applesmc-dkms
[03:59] <jdu> J-_, is that all it shows for /dev/sdb ?
[03:59] <FloodBot1> donald: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:59] <sebsebseb> williamd: a kernel :)
[03:59] <sevodnya> MacMoose: the documentation suggests it uses utf-8 by default, but if it doesn't work for you, definitely do specify it manually
[03:59] <Classic> then whats the point of sudo if anyone can do it
[03:59] <williamd> sebner, ha
[04:00] <Piet> !linux | williamd
[04:00] <J-_> jdu: Yes.
[04:00] <galvanize> did you run sudo apt-get install applesmc-dkms in the terminal
[04:00] <williamd> Poet, I was kidding
[04:00] <galvanize> ?
[04:00] <MacMoose> sevodnya: is there a way to get the OS to return what encoding is being used?
[04:00] <jdu> J-_, because vfat will not store linux permissions anyway.
[04:00] <williamd> sudo apt-get install Linux
[04:00] <evanrmurphy> Hi, I'm trying to get FireGPG's sign and encrypt feature to work with Gmail, and I've made it do so with a fresh Firefox profile. I'm trying to isolate what could be the problem on my original profile, and so I've removed every other add-on (except for FireGPG), but it still doesn't work. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
[04:00] <sevodnya> Classic: sudo only allows those in the admin group to perform actions as root
[04:00] <J-_> jdu: It wasn't vfat in the first place.
[04:00] <jdu> J-_, In other words, that doesn't look like ext3...
[04:01] <acm> so there is no way to make the privleged packages like synaptic package manager accept my root password?
[04:01] <jdu> J-_, can you mount it?
[04:01] <Classic> aha, maybe acm didnt add his user to that group
[04:01] <MacMoose> sevodnya: If I mount with no options, then make a folder, it looks fine. Then when I mount as UTF8, its messed up, and vise versa
[04:01] <sevodnya> MacMoose: try running the command "mount" (no arguments) in a terminal
[04:01] <Flannel> acm: there is.  Why do you want to do that?
[04:01] <santina> hello
[04:01] <acm> classic: its default when you install for the first account
[04:01] <acm> flannel: b/c I dont like using sudo for everything. i accept the risk.  how would i go about doing it?
[04:01] <J-_> jdu: It was... ext3. It says it's already mounted.
[04:01] <jjibn> thx it is a long way:)
[04:01] <Flannel> acm: well, it'd still ask you for a password... it would just be looking for the root password instead.
[04:02] <sevodnya> MacMoose: you need to decide whether you want it mounted as UTF-8 or not, and stick with one or the other; switching between encodings will cause filename corruption
[04:02] <J-_> jdu: mount: /dev/sdb1 already mounted or /media/external_ busy
[04:02] <Michi_akane> I just took an update (update manager) .. My webserver (apache2) now only works for a few minutes and then no longer brings up pages.   I also can't ssh into the box.  I can connect out and some cron jobs that access the net are working fine.  Any thoughts?
[04:02] <Flannel> acm: You'd still have to use sudo, etc.
[04:02] <jdu> acm, in general, with ubuntu, no one has a root password, If you were to create one, I'm sure you could use it.
[04:02] <williamd> lets make a new room called Ubuntwo
[04:02] <Flannel> acm: the alternative is to just set a root password, and then use su, just like elsewhere.
[04:02] <J-_> jdu: also mount: according to mtab, /dev/sdb1 is already mounted on /media/external_
[04:02] <jdu> J-_, what does the output of "mount" say
[04:02] <acm> i did create a root password!  but jaunty is not accepting it when i try to use the admin tools
[04:02] <lstarnes> a lot of other distros use sudo
[04:02] <briancro`> donald: you have to add the repo for the files you want to install  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MactelSupportTeam/PPA#Installation << this link will tell you how to install the repository that has the files you want.
[04:02] <galvanize> donald: did you get it?
[04:02] <lstarnes> acm: then use your user password
[04:02] <jdu> J-_, regarding what filesystem it is mounted as?
[04:02] <Classic> i guess you can su root when doing lots of tasks at that level acm
[04:03] <sebsebseb> lstarnes: Do they?  I thought Ubuntu was  basically the only one that used sudo
[04:03] <Flannel> acm: That's because the admin tools use *sudo*.  You'd need to start a root shell, and invoke the tools, to do it without sudo.
[04:03] <sevodnya> jdu, acm: the problem is that admin tools from the menus call gksudo, not gksu, so they'll only accept non-root passwords
[04:03] <jdu> sevodnya, good point.
[04:03] <briancro`> donald:  oops... did not see the others helping too... follow thier advice if mine is different
[04:03] <lstarnes> sebsebseb: most other distros have sudo
[04:03] <MacMoose> sevodnya: I understand this. I just want to understand what ecoding is being used by ubuntu/truecrypt :P
[04:03] <Flannel> sevodnya: no, that's not true.  gksu and gksudo are one and the same.
[04:03] <J-_> jdu: I can pastebin it, but the line I want(I think) is: /dev/sdb1 on /media/external_ type ext3 (rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=hal)
[04:03] <lstarnes> sebsebseb: usually in their repos
[04:03] <Flannel> jdu: no, it's incorrect.
[04:03] <losher> sebsebseb: nah, sudo has been around for a good long time, at least a decade or more...
[04:03] <sebsebseb> lstarnes:  and I guess  other distros based on Ubuntu may be using sudo.    sure in the repo, but I meant by default
[04:03] <jdu> Flannel, ok bad point :/
[04:03] <donald> ok i am stil trying hopefully my problem with be solved here
[04:04] <sevodnya> Flannel: correct, but depending which way you invoke it, the behavior is different, at least for me
[04:04] <sebsebseb> losher: yeah I know since 1979 or something
[04:04] <MacMoose> I guess there is no way to identify what encoding is being used for a particular mount?
[04:04] <sevodnya> MacMoose: if you want to know which one is being used at the moment, try running mount
[04:04] <J-_> jdu: What I might do is, umount /media/external_, delete /media/external I just created. And remount, or hope it remounts.
[04:04] <Flannel> acm: You'll need to modify /etc/sudoers to enable you to enter a root password.
[04:04] <acm> so the answer is i can't get the admin tools to accept my root pasword?
[04:04] <acm> flannel: how so?
[04:04] <Flannel> acm: No, you just have to modify /etc/sudoers to enable sudo to accept a root password.
[04:04] <briancro`> donald: it is all a series of simple steps, you have plenty of help in the wiki, forum and here.  You'll solve it.
[04:05] <MacMoose> sevodnya: Mount shows nothing about encoding. Since I specified nothing, I assume its defaulting to something. it only tells me if I use an option,.
[04:05] <jdu> J-_, odd. but blkid said it was vfat.  Now that you mention it. I have a /dev/sdb1 with blkid that also says it is vfat and I have no external drive attached.
[04:05] <thedoor> somebody have a tutorial to install kiba dock on ubuntu 9.04?
[04:05] <jdu> J-_, and /dev/sda3 says it is ext2 with blkid even though it is ext3
[04:05] <J-_> jdu: I just did ls /media/external_ and it's listing the files.
[04:05] <sebsebseb> thedoor: kiba dock?  never even heard of that one.    cairo dock and  avant window manager though sure
[04:05] <Flannel> acm: man sudoers will give you all the gorey details.  Look into rootpw
[04:05] <jdu> J-_, perhaps it is better to use something other than blkid in this case.
[04:05] <MacMoose> sevodnya: /dev/mapper/truecrypt9 on /media/truecrypt9 type vfat (rw,uid=1001,gid=1001,umask=077).... See? nothing
[04:06] <jdu> J-_, good, so problem is solved.
[04:06] <dustin343> hi everyone, new user here.  i can't get my sound to work and i really have no idea where to look after searching all over the web, anyone available to point me in the right direction?
[04:06] <donald> ok, so i went to that wiki and it says make sure i have these lines in the etc/apt/sources.list but i have no clue wat that is
[04:06] <MacMoose> sevodnya: unless its using windows-1252 or something gay
[04:06]  * abalone can't see anyone's nicknames anymore :/
[04:06] <mahohmei> Can I ask a question about 9.04 refusing to print on legal size paper?
[04:06] <Flannel> MacMoose: Please don't use that term pejoratively.
[04:06] <sevodnya> MacMoose: if it's not showing an option, it's iso-8859-1 -- note that that's a FAT partition, not NTFS.
[04:06] <Classic> anyone has problems with new notification system in jaunty? like slow response when you increase decrease sound?
[04:06] <thedoor> sebastien, oh thanks, cairo dock do the same work, and the repository of jaunty have this, thank u so much :D
[04:06] <MacMoose> Flannel: My appologies. It won't happen again.
[04:06] <skellington> classic: i have that
[04:07] <sebsebseb> thedoor: not sure if cairo is in  the  repo, but  avant is.  however cario is meant to be better than avant
[04:07] <evanrmurphy> MacMoose: "Please don't use that term pejoratively." +1
[04:07] <Classic> i wonder if there's a fix for that
[04:07] <Michi_akane> I just took an update (update manager) .. My webserver (apache2) now only works for a few minutes and then no longer brings up pages.   I also can't ssh into the box.  I can connect out and some cron jobs that access the net are working fine.
[04:07] <skellington> me too, its rather annoying
[04:07] <losher> MacMoose: "Please don't use that term pejoratively." +2
[04:07] <J-_> jdu: not yet. :P I need to rm -R /media/external && umount /media/external_ && mount /media/external/. I'll do it per command though.
[04:07] <Classic> ye, maybe turning it off is a good idea for now, skellington
[04:08] <williamd> my
[04:08] <J-_> I don't need -R
[04:08] <sebsebseb> dustin343: sound issues hummm   it may be completly useless or a good start, what I am going to get the bot to pm you.   however as a new user you might not quite understand it yet even
[04:08] <sebsebseb> !sound >  dustin343
[04:08] <skellington> how do i do that classic?
[04:09] <J-_> err yeah I do.
[04:09] <Classic> hm.... good question, im gonna find out
[04:09] <jdu> J-_, so you are trying to delete everything on the drive?  -r (or -R) is correct
[04:09] <skellington> id like to only turn off the volume one, the other ones come up fine for me
[04:09] <J-_> jdu: It's definitely a faulty case.
[04:09] <dustin343> thanks sebseb i'll see what i can do
[04:09] <J-_> jdu: Just deleting an empty directory.
[04:10] <jdu> J-_, sadly cases are often bad.
[04:10] <sebsebseb> dustin343:    good  luck with that, and when asking for help with such issues,  it's good to be more specific,  for example  by saying if the sound works at all
[04:10] <skellington> hey guys, whats the easiest way to ftp into my desktop computer from my netbook?
[04:11] <sebsebseb> skellington: gftp or something?  and a ftp server of course?
[04:11] <Flannel> skellington: set up openssh-server, and use sftp
[04:11] <sebsebseb> skellington: nah what Flannel said :)
[04:11] <lightbricko> Is there an easy way to import various settings (pidgin accounts, firefox bookmark, evolution accounts and e-mails etc.) from my other Ubuntu PC running gutsy gibbon? (I'm running Jaunty)
[04:11] <AlexD73> I have a problem with the audio ... last night was overshadowed while listening to a streaming vlc Opera and paused on a flash audio streaming ... today I changed the device in system>preferences>audio and I put HDA ATI SB (alsa mixer) and rythmbox rings, but vlc and Opera browserI have a problem with the audio ... last night was overshadowed while listening to a streaming vlc Opera and paused on a flash audio streaming ... today I changed
[04:11] <AlexD73> device in system>preferences>audio and I put HDA ATI SB (alsa mixer) and rythmbox rings, but vlc and Opera browser are not yet...it feels just noise...any ideas? thanks
[04:11] <losher> skellington: yeah, what Flannel said...
[04:11] <Michi_akane> I just took an update (update manager) .. My webserver (apache2) now only works for a few minutes and then no longer brings up pages.   I also can't ssh into the box.  I can connect out and some cron jobs that access the net are working fine.
[04:12] <J-_> jdu: Yeah for sure. I just turned the case off, and back on. Drive isn't spinning. So I guess I can fool around with this POS for a while until it decided it wants to turn on.
[04:12] <Piet> Flannel: though that's not ftp, of course
[04:12] <skellington> well, my desktop has an ftpserver client application on it, but i cant seem to figure out what its ip address is so that i can ftp into it
[04:12] <J-_> Not turn on, but spin.
[04:12] <GnarlyBob> lightbricko: unless there is an easier way, just tar/gz up the relevant directories in your home dir and unpack them on the new box
[04:12] <Flannel> Piet: No, but it accomplishes the same, and with less hassle.
[04:12] <Linuz2009> is it okay I click on all the options on ubuntu updates
[04:12] <skellington> flannel: im guessing thats the faster alternative... am i right?
[04:12] <Classic> skellington, http://www.killertechtips.com/2009/04/26/disable-notifications-in-ubuntu-904-jaunty-jackalope/
[04:12] <lightbricko> GnarlyBob: ok
[04:12] <Piet> Flannel: agreed
[04:12] <Flannel> skellington: Its much simpler to set up (and to deal with any port forwarding, etc) yes.
[04:13] <donald> is there a number that we can call to get support?
[04:13] <sebsebseb> donald: no
[04:13] <Classic> donald, whats your question?
[04:13] <Linuz2009> funny question
[04:13] <sebsebseb> donald: well maybe if your paying for commercial support, but otherwise no
[04:13] <mahohmei> Can I ask about 9.04 and printing on legal paper?
[04:13] <dscherger> anyone got ideas on getting a new wireless connection on a new ubuntu install?
[04:13] <sebsebseb> donald: or  consumer support from  Canonical  then maybe
[04:13] <Piet> donald: 911?
[04:13] <Michi_akane> I just took an update (update manager) .. My webserver (apache2) now only works for a few minutes and then no longer brings up pages.   I also can't ssh into the box.  I can connect out and some cron jobs that access the net are working fine.
[04:13] <dscherger> it seems to associate fine, but doesn't get through DHCP
[04:14] <GnarlyBob> canonical offers support packages, don't they? :)
[04:14] <jjibn> ok all which kind of lanaguge is widely used in opensource
[04:14] <lightbricko> Anyone know when (or if it even is possible) that pidgin will get 1. Skype protocol or 2. webcam support for msn protocol?
[04:14] <skellington> thanks classic and flannel
[04:14] <Flannel> donald: Only if you have a support contact with Canonical.
[04:14] <sebsebseb> GnarlyBob: of course, but they need to be paid for
[04:14] <dustin343> !sound
[04:14] <Classic> skellington welcome :)
[04:14] <GnarlyBob> sebsebseb: of course
[04:14] <Flannel> donald: If you're looking for more localized/in person/etc support, look into your LoCo team

[04:14] <donald> i went throught the install instructions for ubuntu 9.10 for the macbook 5,1 and i tried to enable the sensors and trackpad and everything like it said but still nothing at all happend
[04:14] <dscherger> it get the feeling that I'm being thwarted by ipv6 but I'm not really sure of that
[04:14] <jjibn> which forum can I talk about the language more
[04:15] <Flannel> jjibn: #ubuntu-offtopic
[04:15] <Classic> donald, you have macbook 5,1 for sure?
[04:15] <donald> yes i know for sure 100%
[04:15] <Michi_akane> hello
[04:16] <donald> the new unibody one i even did the command on here and it came up 5,1
 thx a lot
[04:16] <Classic> donald, i didnt mean like that, just wanted to know whether that manual was 100 % for you
[04:16] <Piet> Michi_akane: which updates were installed? /var/log/apt/term.log should tell
[04:16] <Classic> so you installed ubuntu ok?
[04:16] <Michi_akane> there were a bunch of them
[04:17] <dscherger> so networkmanager shows things as happy... 3/4 bars, selected the correct wireless network, etc.
[04:17] <donald> o well im on ubuntu on my macbook right now but i had to put it on my desk the fans dont work barely at all so its really hot and i just mainly want the fan to work
[04:17] <dscherger> but ifconfig shows no interface with an address
[04:17] <Piet> Michi_akane: can you pastebin this file, please?
[04:17] <Decepticon> how can i backup config files and my home dir
[04:17] <donald> i have a lapfan for it but its still hot
[04:17] <Decepticon> system config files
[04:17]  * dscherger ejects the wifi card
[04:17] <sebsebseb> Decepticon: why?   I mean why back up all that?
[04:17] <Decepticon> what else is important on my machine?
[04:17] <Piet> Michi_akane: actually the last 200 lines should be sufficient
[04:17] <sebsebseb> Decepticon: you don't need to back all that stuff up
[04:17] <Classic> donald, so your problem is sensors?
[04:17] <Decepticon> config files cause i dont want to config everything again
[04:18] <needhelp1> im needing some help.. i have windows but i want to install ubuntu on a second partiton for dual but
[04:18] <Decepticon> my home dir has my personal configs, and files
[04:18] <donald> its mainly that but also the trackpad and sound
[04:18] <sebsebseb> needhelp1: ok
[04:18] <Decepticon> sebsebseb why not
[04:18] <Flannel> Decepticon: That's correct.  You want to back up /etc and /home
[04:18] <Flannel> !backup | Decepticon
[04:18] <needhelp1> i dont have a windows install disk so
[04:18] <donald> pretty much nothing on the list that the site gave me solutions too got fixed
[04:18] <needhelp1> i need to install ubuntu without having to reinstall windows
[04:18] <Classic> no trakpad reception or is it jumpy?
[04:18] <Decepticon> Flannel should i back up more
[04:18] <sebsebseb> Decepticon: well  you  can just back up  relivant .folders from home.   for example  maybe you use Firefox and want your profile backed up and and so .mozilla
[04:18] <Flannel> Decepticon: not really necessary.  Unless you have stuff in /var/ that you need to back up.
[04:18] <sevodnya> !dual-boot | needhelp1
[04:19] <Decepticon> sebsebseb i would rather just have a entire backup of my configs
[04:19] <needhelp1> im pretty sure all of my hdd is already particitions ntfs through windows.. do i need to delete or resize from within windows?
[04:19] <Decepticon> Flannel what could be in /var
[04:19] <donald> sometimes it wont work but besides that it said it should have some multitouch gestures working also
[04:19] <dscherger> "...Activation (ath0) Stage 2 of 5 (Device Configuration) complete.
[04:19] <sebsebseb> needhelp1: which Windows?
[04:19] <dscherger> ^^ that is encouraging
[04:19] <sevodnya> needhelp1: you should be able to resize within the ubuntu installer, but the instructions above should cover that
[04:19] <Flannel> Decepticon: if you're running a http server, or a DB or whatnot, you'd want to back up that stuff.  But you'd know you wanted to back it up already ;)
[04:19] <donald> im not worried about the trackpad thats the least i need fixed
[04:19] <Decepticon> i want to be absolutely safe in my backup, so ill include /var
[04:19] <Classic> needhelp1, just reboot into livecd, install ubuntu on that partition and it will have 2 options for you when you boot
[04:19] <dscherger> ath0: no IPv6 routers present
[04:19] <Decepticon> Flannel oh yeah.. i do need to do /var apache stores stuff there
[04:19] <skellington> classic: it didnt work for me
[04:19] <Linuz2009> whats a proposed updates
[04:20] <Flannel> Decepticon: No, unless you actually *put* something in /var (like in /var/www or database or whatever)
[04:20] <dscherger> ^^ that not so much
[04:20] <Decepticon> Flannel are there any more dirs you can think of?
[04:20] <skellington> but i can live with it
[04:20] <needhelp1> is this safe.. i dont want to corrupt my windows partition / install
[04:20] <sebsebseb> Linuz2009: I think  something  that is coming as a normal update, but not quite ready yet.  or something like that
[04:20] <Classic> skellington, im halfway through encoding a movie, cant restart to see now:)
[04:20] <sevodnya> Linuz2009: are you seeing this in the update manager?
[04:20] <Flannel> Decepticon: that's it.  Unless you've put stuff in /usr/local/
[04:20] <Piet> Decepticon: the list of installed packages is also in /var, this is something you'd want for sure
[04:20] <sebsebseb> needhelp1: ok which version of Windows is on there?
[04:21] <Linuz2009> sevodnya: yeah, I checked it
[04:21] <Decepticon> yes, so /home /etc and /var for me
[04:21] <needhelp1> sebsebseb: xp
[04:21] <Michi_akane> piet: I just pastebined it
[04:21] <skellington> alrighty. i dont really mind
[04:21] <Classic> donald, when you ran this sudo apt-get install applesmc-dkms did it install correctly?
[04:21] <Flannel> Decepticon: /var/www you don't need to back up all of /var, most of it is meaningless.
[04:21] <donald> it said its not found
[04:21] <sebsebseb> needhelp1:  if you have  no  unpartiitoned space you need to make some sure, but   Ubuntu's installer can do that for you
[04:21] <Piet> Decepticon: /boot maybe if you modified grub
[04:21] <Decepticon> Flannel ill take a look around before i only back up that subdir
[04:21] <Classic> ah, you have to enable that repository
[04:21] <Decepticon> Piet i dont believe i did that, so im ok there
[04:21] <sevodnya> Linuz2009: proposed updates are ones that are less urgent/security-related than others
[04:21] <sebsebseb> needhelp1: I think, otherwise partition editor on the Ubuntu Live CD is where you can resize
[04:22] <Piet> Michi_akane: are you planning to tell me where or should i wait until it's indexed by a search engine? ;-)
[04:22] <Linuz2009> sevodnya: so should I update the following package?
[04:22] <Classic> donald, ubuntu uses repositories to download software from
[04:22] <needhelp1> sebsebseb: will it prevent me from formating and deleted the windows OS ?
[04:22] <donald> i dont no wat that is
[04:22] <Classic> its like a bunch of links that you have to enable
[04:22] <Michi_akane> sorry.. I'm a newbie: http://paste.ubuntu.com/173385/   (*^u^*)
[04:22] <losher> needhelp1: if you can, you should make a full backup before you start. Because if you make a mistake....
[04:22] <Classic> one minute
[04:22] <sebsebseb> !repo |  donald
[04:22] <sevodnya> Linuz2009: unless you have a particular reason for not doing so, it's probably a good idea, updated packages often have bug-fixes or performance enhancements
[04:22] <Laundry> can somebody help me with this? http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=7287607&postcount=17
[04:22] <Laundry> not quite sure what's going on there
[04:23] <Linuz2009> sevodnya: how about unsupported updates?
[04:23] <needhelp1> losher: i have backed up my files but no way to restore windows .. no reinstall cd
[04:23] <sebsebseb> needhelp1: ok first of all  just to be sure  maybe you should back up your data in XP, even though it's unlikely that resizing XP's partition will cause data loss
[04:23] <Piet> Decepticon: /srv if you installed commercial software which is not well packaged or not packaged at all
[04:23] <Decepticon> Piet thanks for that info
[04:23] <Decepticon> although im pretty sure i dont have that :)
[04:24] <sebsebseb> needhelp1: get an Ubuntu CD sorted out, if you haen't already got one.    md5sum the ISO  before burning or  afterwoulds if you still have it,   then boot computer from CD
[04:24] <sebsebseb> !md5sum
[04:24] <Piet> Decepticon: and /root if you put anything there or modified the users' profile
[04:24] <Decepticon> we seem to have cover most if then? /home /etc and /var/www
[04:24] <linuxviewer> I am doing some apt-get and my connection is going at 800B/s.  I have over a 10MB/S line that I just tested on another system on the network.  Really bad mirror?
[04:24] <sevodnya> Linuz2009: iirc, those are for backports:
[04:24] <disappearedng> Hey everyone
[04:24] <losher> needhelp1: There are 3rd party products e.g. ghost which will allow full backup from 'metal'. Since you're apparently a beginner, I think you'd be mad not to make a full backup before you go messing with partitions....
[04:24] <needhelp1> i have d/l'ed and burned to cd
[04:24] <sevodnya> !backports Linuz2009
[04:24] <sevodnya> !backports | Linuz2009
[04:24] <disappearedng> I did an apt-get remove --purge of php5 but now there is still "php" in my ubuntu why?
[04:25] <Alek_86> Hi... How can I install Ubuntu on MSI 630x laptop? I can't start from liveCD, alweys got busybox... some problem with SATA driver.
[04:25] <Decepticon> well thanks a lot, sebsebseb Flannel and Piet for telling me what to back up :)
[04:25] <sebsebseb> needhelp1: ok well if you still have the ISO   you can md5sum it, to make sure you  got a  good download
[04:26] <Michi_akane> Piet: http://paste.ubuntu.com/173385/
[04:26] <needhelp1> i do..how do i do that
[04:26] <sevodnya> disappearedng: can you pastebin the output of aptitude search php ?
[04:26] <sebsebseb> Decepticon: ok no problem
[04:26] <Alek_86> How can I install Ubuntu on MSI 630x laptop? I can't start from liveCD, alweys got busybox... some problem with SATA driver.
[04:26] <Piet> Michi_akane: it helps if you prefix your lines with 'Piet: ' whenever you talk to me, this way I don't miss what you're telling me.
[04:26] <disappearedng> sevodnya cause I still have php cli
[04:26] <disappearedng> nvm I am reinstalling everything
[04:26] <Piet> Michi_akane: ah you just realized ;-)
[04:26] <AlexD73> i used HDA ATI SB (alsa mixer) in recent moths with no problem...now rhythmbox rings with HDA ATI SB (ALSA MIXER)...VLC and Opera not yet...may be device driver damaged? I received a message that the audio device was committed by another application...
[04:27] <Piet> Michi_akane: so your last update run was at 2009-05-15  15:32:14
[04:27] <sebsebseb> needhelp1: you can  with a program on Windows after you installed,  or  on the Ubuntu  CD  when it has access to the Windows partition
[04:27] <Piet> Michi_akane: the one before that was 2009-05-12  08:31:30
[04:27] <Piet> Michi_akane: and you say the problems started after 2009-05-15  15:32:14?
[04:28] <disappearedng> can someone tell me what's wrong with my php? how do I fix this http://pastie.org/479826
[04:28] <donald> is there anyway that a 13 year old could do this because im very new to all this and its very confuisng
[04:28] <losher> Alek_86: I'm not sure you can do an install. If you have SATA driver problems, and your disk is SATA, I don't see how you're ever going to be able to read/write it...
[04:28] <Michi_akane> Piet: The problems started with the 5/15 15:32 update
[04:28] <sebsebseb> needhelp1: have you got any data on there to backup?
[04:29] <sebsebseb> donald: do what?  I missed it,  also that's a nice age to start using Ubuntu at
[04:29] <lightbricko> Just installed Jaunty. Which are the "very common" restricted packages I should consider installing? Any other than flashplugin and restricted extras?
[04:29] <Classic> donald
[04:29] <donald> yes?
[04:29] <needhelp1> sebsebseb: i dono im lost
[04:29] <Alek_86> losher, hard drive is working... but ubuntu can't start... is there a way to trick it somehow? :S
[04:29] <Classic> ok, from what i understand, they dont have regular repositories yet for mactel support
[04:29] <ictlhoksukon> jamal
[04:30] <sebsebseb> needhelp1: ok  1.  backup  data in Windows just in case the partitining goes wrong later on, which is unlikely
[04:30] <Classic> however, they have launchpad repos
[04:30] <sebsebseb> needhelp1: 2.   boot the computer from Live  CD and come back here
[04:30] <Classic> i think you can try to enable those and see if that works
