[04:26] <jvr> can anyone help me with this printer or what
[04:26] <jvr> ?
[04:26] <jvr> please
[04:26] <MrPickle> smm289, thats it?
[04:26] <MrPickle> arooni, what program are you using to burn?
[04:27] <arooni> MrPickle, gnome-baker
[04:27] <smm289> MrPickle:  ya it says RealPlayer 11 for linux
[04:27] <smm289> then under that it has a .rpm download, Redhat package
[04:28] <MrPickle> arooni, o..right..i should have picked up on that. unfortunatley, I've never used gnome-baker. I would suggest finding an alternate app or updating the packages that control your writable driver
[04:28] <smokie> how do you search for a port a certain program is using?
[04:28] <chubs> smm289, alien if you must
[04:28] <arooni> MrPickle, suggestions
[04:28] <mysticdarkhack> don drm mpaa
[04:28] <mysticdarkhack> lol
[04:28] <arooni> MrPickle, app names
[04:28] <smm289> :chubs, Alien, were ??
[04:28] <EatShrooms> does anybody know how I could get tor/privoxy to work on ubuntu? If not, does anybody have a recommendation for a proxy I could use? Free or not?
[04:29] <chubs> smm289, sudo apt-get install alien, then alien realplayerwhatever.rpm
[04:29] <chubs> but it doesn't always work
[04:29] <smokie> anyone?
[04:29] <mysticdarkhack> Anyway, I guess not many get dvd playback working
[04:29] <chubs> smm289, not a big deal if it doesn't, just fails, but it might be your only option if there is no source
[04:29] <EatShrooms> smokie: what program is it?
[04:29] <smokie> EatShrooms, webmin
[04:29] <smm289> :chubs I'd rather not, thanks though,  why won't the .bin work, it says it for Linux but it doesnt do anything when I double click on it
[04:30] <MrPickle> smm289, in that case you might want to debianize it...i forget the program you need for it, though I used it once... I think it was called 'Alien' or something.. but basically you need to find something that can alter the file *types* of archives, then change the extension to a tarball or debian package for installation
[04:30] <MrPickle> arooni, use synaptics and search for burning utilities
[04:30] <EatShrooms> smokie: I don't know
[04:30] <chubs> smm289, chmod +x realwhatever.bin  (is it executable?)
[04:30] <smm289> why would they day for Linux if it doesn't work, what kinda linux distro does a .bin work on
[04:30] <chubs> smm289, all of them
[04:31] <smokie> EatShrooms, do you know the command to see the open ports on ubuntu right now?
[04:31] <MrPickle> arooni had his panties in a knot, no?
[04:31] <MrPickle> i stand corrected
[04:31] <EatShrooms> smokie: no sir
[04:32] <smm289> :chubs was that command supposed to do something, i typed it out in the console and it just dropped me down to the next line, didnt say anything
[04:32] <turk> if a passwd file is modified and root can no longer be accessed mean re-install?
[04:32] <smm289> lol wow
[04:32] <smm289> it changed the icon on my desktop
[04:32] <chubs> smm289, okay now ./realthing.bin
[04:32] <jrib> turk: no.  Use recovery mode from the grub menu
[04:33] <EatShrooms> does anybody know how I could get tor/privoxy to work on ubuntu? If not, does anybody have a recommendation for a proxy I could use? Free or not?
[04:33] <smm289> double clicking on it in the desktop just wont do it hu
[04:33] <chubs> smm289, or double click it i guess, but it might be a text only script
[04:33] <turk> jrib: i tried but i can't login to anything
[04:33] <chubs> it should at least give output
[04:33] <jrib> turk: you are automatically logged in as root...
[04:33] <turk> jrib: no login found for root
[04:33] <MrPickle> smm289, chubs, you also have to name the file extension after .rpm
[04:34] <lekremyelsew> hey does anyone know any VNC clients that can connect to different servers that the local one?
[04:34] <chubs> MrPickle, what are you talking about?
[04:34] <jrib> turk: use a live cd then and mount the partition.  What exactly did you do to the file?
[04:34] <smm289> hey its doing something
[04:34] <smm289> Stand-By
[04:34] <chubs> smm289, congrats. do that next time you've got a .bin
[04:34] <bla__> hello
[04:34] <MrPickle> chubs, when you run alien, you have to specify it to a .deb, otherwise it leaves it as a .rpm, which is the intermediary file ext.
[04:34] <smm289> its saying Setup for UNIX, is that going to be a problemn
[04:34] <hosstest> okay, when I log on it says something about /home/--username--/.dmrc is being ignored.  Does that ring a bell for anyone?
[04:34] <chubs> MrPickle, oh yeah, we're way past that though
[04:34] <alskdjfklsdf> i am having trouble erasing a live cd of hardy, from within hardy (booted up from hard drive and want to install intrepid so i need to burn a cd).  every time i do it it just pauses and never goes anywhere :(
[04:35] <turk> jrib: ok i have the live cd i will try to do that...me and my roomate were playing with john
[04:35] <smm289> why cant ubuntu just do all that stuff when I double click on the .bin file
[04:35] <chubs> smm289, I hope not, you are on ubuntu right ;)?
[04:35] <jrib> turk: heh
[04:35] <MrPickle> chubs, I was explaining why it wasnt usable yet
[04:35] <turk> jrib: and he got us good
[04:35] <smm289> <---has been Windows-Washed
[04:35] <chubs> smm289, because it doesn't read your mind
[04:35] <smm289> yep, on windows
[04:35] <smm289> lol yep on ubuntu
[04:35] <smm289> Windows used to read my mind all the time
[04:35] <MrPickle> chubs, but at this point it also doesnt matter, because now its done
[04:35] <chubs> MrPickle, the .bin is separate from the rpm. it's a universal binary and it wasn't usable because it wasn't executable
[04:36] <hosstest> how can I take owner for a folder?
[04:36] <hosstest> *of
[04:36] <smm289> it even made me think things I didnt want to
[04:36] <bla__> I am having issues with running two wifi cards 1 intagrated and the other pcmcia(proxim 8421) help, pointin the right direction
[04:36] <MrPickle> chubs, yes i know, it was relevant at the time when I said it but not long aftetr
[04:36] <lekremyelsew> does anyone no
[04:36] <eddwinpaz> hi there..
[04:36] <chubs> hosstest, chown -r
[04:36] <hosstest> thanks
[04:36] <plik> smm that sounds more lik 'writing' stuff to you mind, than reading it

[04:37] <eddwinpaz> i currently installed ubuntu 8.0.4 and i need to configure my ATI card to extend my second monitor how do i do that ?
[04:38] <smm289> Hey it seems to be working
[04:38] <MrPickle> smm289, bitschin
[04:39] <chubs> smm289, it seemed to be working when it was installing for UNIX ;)
[04:39] <smm289> now if I want to uninstall RealPlayer if I don't like it, can I just delete the folder I installed it to
[04:39] <eddwinpaz> i currently installed ubuntu 8.0.4 and i need to configure my ATI card to extend my second monitor how do i do that ?
[04:39] <rednikon> Hello everyone
[04:40] <eddwinpaz> i currently installed ubuntu 8.0.4 and i need to configure my ATI card to extend my second monitor how do i do that ?
[04:40] <chubs> smm289, assuming you installed it to /home/something then yes
[04:40] <chubs> it would be unwise to delete /usr/bin
[04:40] <smm289> Chubs: yep thats were I installed it
[04:41] <legend2440> eddwinpaz: which ati card?
[04:41] <eddwinpaz> ATI radeon x1500 i think
[04:41] <smm289> go figure, it doesnt seem to be what im looking for, I thought it was a full featured mp3 library player, but it seems to only be for playing video clips and windows media videos
[04:42] <_Zeus_> smm289: have you tried rhythmbox or amarok?
[04:42] <KalEl> me? nvidia geforce 8600 gts
[04:42] <_Zeus_> (11:40:59 PM) legend2440: eddwinpaz: which ati card?
[04:42] <_Zeus_> don't think you're eddwinpaz
[04:42] <smm289> Zeus: ya I have but I was just looking for something different
[04:42] <KalEl> oh my god sorry
[04:42] <eddwinpaz> yes i am..
[04:42] <_Zeus_> smm289: what are you looking for?
[04:42] <eddwinpaz> i just dont remember
[04:42] <legend2440> eddwinpaz: in terminal type   lspci | grep VGA
[04:42] <eddwinpaz> i think there is a sudo command
[04:42] <smm289> Zues: I have no idea
[04:43] <dmsuperman> Whenever I enable my s-video output using nvidia-settings X crashes. Any ideas what might be going wrong?
[04:43] <smm289> RythmBox and that other one just did not do it for me, I have MANY years of windows Media Player to get over

[04:45] <smm289> Cool the install utility even placed the RealPlayer11 icon in my Sound & Video menu
[04:46] <dmsuperman> Anybody here mind helping me figure out why enabling my s-video port crashes X?
[04:46] <legend2440> eddwinpaz: if you open  system>administration>hardware drivers is there a box to enable ati frivers?

[04:48] <eli_> hello all I hav e a question about tor
[04:48] <eddwinpaz> legend2440 yes is enabled.
[04:48] <chubs> smm289, it's faster than using a mouse
[04:48] <smm289> eli: I used to run a Tor server under vista for about a month, I havnt yet started it back up on my ubuntu file server, just my 2cents
[04:49] <eli_> lets say I wanted to remap my start and exit nodes, is there a command to do that
[04:49] <legend2440> eddwinpaz: so you are trying to enable dual monitors?  or  tv out?
[04:49] <chubs> eli_, why don't you say it? ;)
[04:49] <eddwinpaz> Dual monitors legend2440
[04:49] <smm289> chubs: I hear people say that, but I don't understand how that is possible.  Take that .bin file for instance, I had to  go to the command line and type out three commands, would have been quicker if I could have just double clicked it
[04:50] <eli_> can I make tor use differant nodes so that my tor IP changes
[04:50] <mEck0> hi! when changing fonts in .Xdefaults, must I restart X in order to see the changes?
[04:50] <chubs> smm289, if double clicking it would run three commands, then yes. But to accomplish the same task that you did in the command line in three commands would take a bit longer with your gui
[04:50] <dr3mro> help.. when i right click on vloume and choose unount tells me i dont have previlrage
[04:51] <Frogzoo> how can I tell if my ppp's running with compression?
[04:51] <dr3mro> how to fix this?
[04:51] <dmsuperman> Whenever I enable tv out my X session crashes. I've no idea what i'm looking for in Xorg.0.log, anybody mind pointing me in the right direction or helping me figure it out?
[04:51] <Frogzoo> lsmod |grep ppp_deflate shows it not running.. :p
[04:51] <smm289> :Chubs but thats how Windows works, I download an application installer then double click it and then BAM it works
[04:51] <harriseldon> luis, where did you copy the files to on the flash per the instructions? Was it to your desktop or somewhere else?
[04:52] <legend2440> eddwinpaz: ok well the three commands in bold on this page worked for me. i use the fglrx drivers with radeon 9600 card.  use sudo in front of the commands     http://www.fedoraforum.org/forum/showthread.php?t=124634
[04:52] <Frogzoo> smm289: or you machine locks up and crashes to blue screen, one of the two
[04:52] <eddwinpaz> legend2440 How can i enable dual monitors ? i updated to this version because someone said that it was posible..
[04:52] <dmsuperman> smm289: That's how linux works. sudo apt-get install thunderbird, for instance
[04:52] <legend2440> eddwinpaz: ok well the three commands in bold on this page worked for me. i use the fglrx drivers with radeon 9600 card.  use sudo in front of the commands     http://www.fedoraforum.org/forum/showthread.php?t=124634
[04:52] <dmsuperman> smm289: Good luck getting it that fast in windows
[04:52] <eddwinpaz> legend2440 ill try.
[04:52] <chubs> smm289, that works on ubuntu with .deb packages. It would've worked on that .bin if realplayer had sent it to you as an executable. They didn't because it's good practice not to, so you made it so yourself
[04:52] <turk> hey guys i lost root access to one of my machines so i booted the live cd and mounted the hard drive.  I now have that passwd file opened..how can i add a root user to the passwd file?
[04:52] <dmsuperman> smm289: Windows, you have to first find thunderbird's site, then find the download link, then select a mirror, then download it, then run the installer, then run through the initial setup options, etc.
[04:53] <smm289> I have yet to do that command, I have stayed with the Synaptic Package installer and the Add/Remove.. thing
[04:53] <turk> or even my old user would work
[04:53] <eli_> if you lost our password to a box just append "single" to the end of the line in grub
[04:53] <legend2440> eddwinpaz: back up your xorg.conf file first though
[04:53] <harriseldon> turk, I would mount the disk, chroot in and use the passwd command
[04:53] <eli_> your*
[04:53] <chubs> smm289, if you know the package you want it's much faster to install via sudo apt-get
[04:53] <chubs> and you can install several packages at once
[04:54] <Frogzoo> turk: there already is a root user, but you shouldn't be using root, use sudo - just make sure a user is member of 'admin'
[04:54] <Frogzoo> turk: the real answer is undo what it was you broke
[04:54] <dr3mro> i found a fix
[04:54] <MrPickle> frogzoo, su is better
[04:54] <turk> frogzoo: i did something and all my users including root were lost in that passwd file
[04:54] <dr3mro> just remove entery from fstab
[04:54] <dr3mro> it wok
[04:54] <dr3mro> s
[04:54] <Frogzoo> MrPickle: lies
[04:55] <dmsuperman> Whenever I enable tv out my X session crashes. I've no idea what i'm looking for in Xorg.0.log, anybody mind pointing me in the right direction or helping me figure it out?
[04:55] <turk> frogzoo: if i use the passwd command using the live cd how can i get it to apply to the passwd file on the mounted drive?
[04:55] <smm289> :chubs if I know what I want to install I can just type part if its name in the Synaptic Search, click the little box next to it, click apply, type in my password, and im done....Well maybe that is not faster, but right now I never remember the exact spelling or how to type out the command...  maybe i'm just a NUB
[04:55] <eddwinpaz> legend2440: it gives me this error http://paste.ubuntu.com/48207/
[04:55] <eli_> If you can boot into single user mode then you don't need passwords and you can change them for all users
[04:55] <MrPickle> frogzoo, I have root login available from the splash screen. arn't I badast?
[04:55] <mds58> I have a hardware question
[04:55] <MrPickle> mds58, and that question is?
[04:55] <Frogzoo> MrPickle: you know it
[04:55] <outbackwifi> hi there
[04:56] <mds58> I have a usb com port I need to configure
[04:56] <legend2440> eddwinpaz: back up your xorg.conf file first.  use   sudo in front of commands
[04:56] <turk> frogzoo: i know my user name that was in there...can i manually add it back?
[04:56] <eli_> you can add a user with the same name and set it's home directory to the previous
[04:57] <MrPickle> Frogzoo, Ha! And I should waste my time on condescending just to mock you so?
[04:57] <legend2440> eddwinpaz: so it would be   sudo aticonfig --dtop=horizontal --overlay-on=1
[04:57] <smm289> I wanna become root, then I wont have to keep typing my password when I do something wrong, I can just kill my system nice and quick, that password thing is a bother
[04:57] <dmsuperman> eli_: You'll have to chown it again
[04:57] <pawan> how to install pixel view tv tuner card
[04:57] <Frogzoo> turk: you need to add the user to /etc/passwd, and the hash passwd in /etc/shadow
[04:57] <dmsuperman> eli_: As the user IDs will differ
[04:57] <eli_> but you will probally have to change the owner of the files within the home directory
[04:57] <mds58> mrPickle: for a windows application running through wine
[04:57] <turk> frogzoo: ok..can you elaborate on how to do that?
[04:58] <eddwinpaz> legend2440 what does it mean restart X
[04:58] <pawan> how to install pixel view tv tuner card
[04:59] <Frogzoo> turk: why not "adduser NEW_USER" from the live cd, and copy the entries it makes to /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow to the files on the hard drive?
[04:59] <dmsuperman> eddwinpaz: Ctrl + Alt + Backspace will restart X, it basically shuts off your running applications in your current X session and restarts X
[04:59] <smm289> well all, thanks for the help again
[04:59] <legend2440> eddwinpaz: did you do all 3 commands? with sudo?  if so   ctrl+alt+backspace will restart x
[04:59] <mds58> MrPickle: full story is I am a mechanic adn I am trying to configure my laptop to run diagnostic hardware in linux
[04:59] <pawan> hi
[04:59] <turk> frogzoo: actaully there was a passwd- file that had my original users in it so i copied it to passwd
[05:00] <turk> frogzoo: i'll try rebooting now
[05:00] <mds58> MrPickle: is this a lost cause?
[05:00] <Frogzoo> turk: /etc/passwd doesn't have your passwords, that's in /etc/shadow
[05:00] <dmsuperman> Whenever I enable tv out my X session crashes. I've no idea what i'm looking for in Xorg.0.log, anybody mind pointing me in the right direction or helping me figure it out?
[05:01] <Frogzoo> dmsuperman: best to just upgrade your video driver to whatever
[05:01] <arooni> should my /home partition be primary or logicalshould my /home partition be primary or logical
[05:01] <eddwinpa1> mmmm still Cloned :(
[05:01] <turk> frogzoo: ok the /etc/shadow file wasn't modified so i'm guessing the passwords are still there...i lost the users must be my problem
[05:01] <Frogzoo> arooni: makes as no difference
[05:01] <Frogzoo> turk: oh good
[05:01] <DasEi> dmsuperman : which graphics ?
[05:01] <dmsuperman> Frogzoo: I have the latest video driver
[05:02] <pawan> how to install pixel view tv tuner card

[05:02] <turk> frogzoo: ok well thanks for your help!
[05:02] <ToddEDM> hey guys, i got a problem, and i thought i might be able to find an answer using Ubuntu... well i have some program running, just after the PC boots, but before windows loads, and it makes it so that i cannot use my keyboard, to hit DEL or F8 or anything, i was wondering if there is anyway that you guys would know on how to fix it, from within a liveCD session of Ubuntu, or any other way
[05:02] <Area_51> hello dose anyone know where i can find a music player that will show me live music feeds
[05:03] <DasEi> pawan:most cards worked for me simply putting in the box and then install app, f.e.  tvtime
[05:03] <harriseldon> pawan have you looked here? http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Bttv not ubuntu specific, but gives some tips
[05:03] <DasEi> dmsuperman : nvidia driver installed ?
[05:04] <Area_51> !music
[05:04] <dmsuperman> DasEi: Yeah, binaries
[05:04] <Area_51> !music player
[05:04] <harriseldon> Area_51 define live music feed - ie shoutcast, last.fm, etc (perhaps give example)
[05:04] <gluonman> The people at #vbox seem to be dead. I just installed VirtualBox from the .deb package online. However, once it finished installing, I didn't find how to execute it. It's not in the system tools menu. How do I run VIrtualBox now?
[05:04] <DasEi> Area_51: see !vlc
[05:04] <Jacobbs> What file system should I use for root?
[05:04] <Jacobbs> Ext3?
[05:04] <dmsuperman> DasEi: The only error I can find in my syslog is bonobo-activatiion segfault but I'm not sure if that's even related or at the same time
[05:04] <ushimitsudoki> gluonman: the binary is named "VirtualBox"
[05:04] <dmsuperman> Jacobbs: more than likely, yes
[05:05] <DasEi> dmsuperman : took nvidia from source ?
[05:05] <gluonman> ushimitsudoki, alright.
[05:05] <Area_51> a place where i can say listen to 60's music or current of today
[05:05] <Mipsalawishus> has anyone managed to get antialiasing working for compiz with nvidia drivers?
[05:05] <DasEi> Jacobbs: ext3

[05:05] <gluonman> ushimitsudoki, that doesn't help much.

[05:06] <DasEi> dmsuperman : in ati its that many cards nees it disabled until driver-packaccke from HP is installed, then u use the control-center came with the installer I think there is an nvidia-config, too , see !nvidia
[05:06] <^Phantom^> finally up and put xchat on ubuntu finally :D
[05:06] <harriseldon> Area_51 it looks like you can add url's as well. If you find a site ie on Shoutcast you can just add the url
[05:06] <gluonman> ushimitsudoki, when I type that into terminal, it just says it's not installed. I originally installed it from source using terminal, but had all sorts of problems. So I removed it an re-installed from the .deb to see if it would work better, and now I can't figure out how to execute it. Running virtualbox in terminal just tells me it's not installed.
[05:07] <r4f0> algum brasileiro?
[05:07] <pawan> system cannot detect my card
[05:07] <dmsuperman> DasEi: I know all that, I'm using nvidia-settings to manage my outputs. The problem is, when I enable my tv output X crashes
[05:07] <harriseldon> pawan is there any good output in dmesg?

[05:07] <eddwinpa1> i got the 2 monitors running
[05:07] <eddwinpa1> thanks..
[05:07] <eddwinpa1> but i got another question , is more a doubt
[05:08] <pawan> !pastebin
[05:08] <Shout1> When I try to look up the man page for the connect command I get the error saying there is no manual entry for connect.  But the command exists, anyone know why?
[05:08] <Jacobbs> When I do "Mount point: /home"
[05:08] <dmsuperman> Shout1: try "info connect"
[05:08] <harriseldon> dmsuperman have you checked nvidia's forums? They have a pretty lively linux forum
[05:08] <Jacobbs> That's where all my own stuff is stored right?
[05:08] <eddwinpa1> Why i got to diferent screens ? and i cant move on window to the other monitor. ?
[05:08] <Shout1> will do
[05:08] <DasEi> dmsuperman: don't know enough 'bout nvidia, wait for someone else
[05:08] <Jacobbs> or is that /usr?
[05:08] <dmsuperman> harriseldon: Not yet, I will check around now
[05:09] <^Phantom^> i want to use a couple of the ubuntu sounds on my phone.  Where are they located at?
[05:09] <harriseldon> Jacobbs yes that is correct. It is very similar to the documents and settings folder in Windows
[05:09] <pawan> where is pastebin
[05:09] <ushimitsudoki> gluonman: you can use "dpkg -L <packagename>" to examine the contents of the package. You can use "locate <string>" to search your system for that string. So "locate VirtualBox" will search for that name. When you installed it, the binary should be in /usr/bin/VirtualBox, and so should be in your path. If this is not the case then either the installation had a problem or your path is misconfigures
[05:09] <Mipsalawishus> has anyone had bad experience with vmware server on ubuntu? i'm thinking of trying it, but i prefer to have something that installs through the package manager just to keep things neat
[05:09] <harriseldon> pawan pastebin is a website. It allows you to paste large amounts of data and provides a url that you can put in the chat without flooding.
[05:10] <gluonman> ushimitsudoki, thank you.
[05:10] <J-n> Virtualbox from sun's site has been nothing but wonderful for me Mipsalawishus

[05:10] <ushimitsudoki> Mipsalawishus: I agree with J-n. I have had good results with VirtualBox as well.
[05:10] <carpediem> pawan: I mentioned how to get your card detected earlier, did it not work?
[05:10] <harriseldon> dmsuperman sorry, I have used s-video out no problem on my card with nvidia-settings

And yes i'm doing this on my own network, I also ran it on my friends network, I did have permission to run it incase you were wondering.
[05:12] <Ninjara> Using 8.04 on a laptop, etc.

[05:20] <DasEi>  ThePookeyShow: terminal : sudo fdisk -l
[05:20] <DrDigi> i did too and kept finding places over seas not on ubuntu.com itself and it tolk me a week to download
[05:20] <legend2440> eddwinpa1: yes read through the post by Ziox.
[05:20] <ushimitsudoki> dmsuperman: i have not had that problem. but if you just want to try something, you could use kdm instead of gdm and see if you get the same result. That might at least help you isolate the problem
[05:20] <Ninjara> Is there a way to see which processes are accessing what on the filesystem? (I need to track down the process that keeps spinning up the cd-rom).

[05:21] <J-n> arooni if i'm not mistaken intrepid is still in alpha no?
[05:21] <ushimitsudoki> arooni: #ubuntu+1 for upcoming versions of ubuntu.
[05:21] <legend2440> eddwinpa1: is your resolution correct for your monitor?
[05:21] <DasEi> Jacobbs: a drive can have max four primary partis, but within and extended, which may contain masses of partis
[05:22] <CostaRicanGFs> i was finally able to install ubuntu on my gfs old laptop however theres a problem theres like an inch black space within the screen around where the gui is
[05:22] <eddwinpa1> i think so..
[05:22] <CostaRicanGFs> like a wee screen inside the screen
[05:22] <carpediem> arooni:  First, you freeze yourself into suspended animation for a few months....
[05:22] <Jacobbs> well I'm assinging 4gb swap partition
[05:22] <CostaRicanGFs> i am on failsafe now because i went to screen resolution and messed it up
[05:22] <CostaRicanGFs> by lowering it
[05:22] <CostaRicanGFs> how do i fix this though
[05:22] <Jacobbs> should it be primary or logical?
[05:22] <DasEi>  ThePookeyShow: terminal : man dd
[05:22] <Ninjara> harriseldon: So.. 'lsof |grep /dev/cdrom' or something?
[05:22] <Killeroid> JackWinter: 4gb swap is too much
[05:22] <eddwinpa1> legend2440: it is...
[05:23] <Jacobbs> 2gb?
[05:23] <DasEi> !who > Jacobbs:
[05:23] <arooni> Carbonflux, i'm not sure how that works?
[05:23] <ThePookeyShow> k thanks...   I know what to type in dd....  Is going from a 160 to an 80 gonna work?  I thought they had to be the same size with dd.
[05:23] <legend2440> eddwinpa1: not sure how to change icon sixes
[05:23] <legend2440> sizes
[05:23] <Jacobbs> Alright, well either way, my question still stands, does it make a difference, and is one prefered over the other?
[05:23] <Killeroid> Jacobbs: 2gb is ok, still a bit much bits its ok
[05:23] <harriseldon> Ninjara that would check if a process is accessing the raw cdrom device. If it is accessing a file that is mounted, you can use mount first to list mounted filesystems and replace /dev/cdrom with the mount point
[05:23] <eddwinpa1> i did it before but dont remember
[05:24] <DasEi>  ThePookeyShow: is the 160 filled up more then >< 75 GB ?
[05:24] <J-n> arooni yah, no beta yet to upgrade from yet, and certainly no release version yet... are you sure that's the question you meant to ask?
[05:25] <CostaRicanGFs> can anyone help me
[05:25] <DrDigi> i turned to the torrents, its downloading faster

[05:26] <J-n> fioletovy: ubuntu flavor.
[05:26] <Killeroid> Jacobbs: on your partition question(primary partitions are the main sort of partition that you make. There is a limit to how many of these you can make (which as you said is four). To get more partitions than this you need to make logical partitions. These are basically a partition within a partition (I think that they may sometimes be referred to as extended partitions). They tend not to get used much since computers nowadays can g
[05:26] <Killeroid> et around the 2GB hard drive limit (which meant you had to split larger drives into partitions) and few people need to have more than 4 partitions.
[05:26] <Killeroid> If you do need more it makes little difference since logical partitions should be handled seamlessly (you won;'t really notice i don;t think))
[05:26] <Killeroid> oops

[05:26] <CostaRicanGFs> i just installed ubuntu on my girls laptop a toshiba satellite, problem is the screen doesnt show up right its like a smaller screen inside the screen, theres about an inch of black space surrounding the gui within the screen

[05:26] <xan1th> CostaRicanGFs: whats the native resolution vs the resolution you're running?
[05:27] <eddwinpa1> legend2440: i mean apply to all desktop
[05:27] <CostaRicanGFs> xan1th, i apologize for my ignorance but i don't get what you mean,m is there a way i can look it up with a terminal??
[05:27] <xan1th> CostaRicanGFs: are you working in terminal or in a gui?
[05:27] <Jacobbs> Alrighty, so Ubuntu is being installed now, yay!
[05:27] <CostaRicanGFs> gui
[05:28] <xan1th> CostaRicanGFs: resolution I think is under Administration
[05:28] <carpediem> Jacobbs: did you get your q answered?  I think if I remember this right you are limited to 4 partitions per disk by the MBR.  One primary, 3 extended,.  But you can have as many logicals as you want in an extended partition.  extended is just a holder for logicals.
[05:28] <xan1th> CostaRicanGFs: I run ubuntu-server so I don't have a gui in front of me :/
[05:28] <Jacobbs> I just made everything a primary
[05:28] <CostaRicanGFs> i'm on failsafe mode right now because i thought i could fix it by going to a lower resolution which only screwed the whole look altogether
[05:28] <xan1th> CostaRicanGFs: sounds like the resolution of the LCD (native resolution) is higher than what you're currently running
[05:28] <CostaRicanGFs> xan1th,
[05:28] <Jacobbs> I only did partitions for / swap and /home
[05:29] <Jacobbs> Thanks for your answer though :)
[05:29] <xan1th> CostaRicanGFs: yeah, lower resolution will make the effect more dramatic
[05:29] <carpediem> Jacobbs: well, anyway, that's how I do it myself, exactly like you did.
[05:29] <Jacobbs> I was wondering about /boot as well
[05:29] <Macrosoft> Jacobbs, you need a root partition too
[05:29] <CostaRicanGFs> it's strange cause i mean sure it's an old computer but the monitor is definetly decent
[05:29] <Jacobbs> I did
[05:29] <Jacobbs>  it's /
[05:30] <Jacobbs> swap and /home
[05:30] <Macrosoft> Jacobbs, cool
[05:30] <Jacobbs> no?
[05:30] <carpediem> Jacobbs: ugh, used to have that on Gentoo, and it was a PITA
[05:30] <CostaRicanGFs> xan1th, it looks like it's already on the highest resolution available
[05:30] <xan1th> CostaRicanGFs: what resolution is that?
[05:30] <CostaRicanGFs> 800 x 600
[05:30] <Jacobbs> Does the Ubuntu install also include the GNU boot loader?
[05:30] <carpediem> Jacobbs: real easy to fill up /boot, since everyone recommends it to be fairly small, then the pain begins.
[05:30] <legend2440> eddwinpa1: open nautilus then   edit>preferences>views tab then  icon view defaults
[05:30] <CostaRicanGFs> 60n hz refresh rate
[05:31] <Jacobbs> Ahh
[05:31] <CostaRicanGFs> xan1th,
[05:31] <xan1th> CostaRicanGFs: unless that laptop is *ANCIENT*, 800x600 typically isn't a native resolution
[05:31] <CostaRicanGFs> i know
[05:31] <xan1th> CostaRicanGFs: so more than likely ubuntu isn't recognizing the video card, and is defaulting to 800x600
[05:31] <Jacobbs> I'm dual booting with XP, so I wanted to keep my Ubuntu fairly small because i don't plan on using it for much other than some development
[05:31] <legend2440> eddwinpa1: open nautilus then   edit>preferences>views tab then  icon view defaults  choose percentage
[05:31] <badfish> is there an app that plays .wma files in ubuntu?
[05:31] <CostaRicanGFs> i think thats why it looks small
[05:31] <CostaRicanGFs> xan1th, how do i find out what video card it has
[05:31] <eddwinpa1> legend2440: nautilus ?
[05:31] <pan__> how do i make a zip file
[05:32] <badfish> make a tar.gz file
[05:32] <pan__> a zip file
[05:32] <carpediem> Jacobbs: well, you did the most important part by creating a separate /home.  Comes in real handy down the road.
[05:32] <xan1th> CostaRicanGFs: google the laptop model and find the tech sheet for it, then google and see if ubuntu supports that vidcard
[05:32] <Jacobbs> Yea, Scunizi suggested that
[05:32] <legend2440> eddwinpa1:  yes nautilus  are you using gnome?  its the file browser
[05:32] <Jacobbs> and I read a few guides online as well that suggested that
[05:32] <CostaRicanGFs> it's a toshiba satellite 1804's204
[05:33] <eddwinpa1> yes i got gnome
[05:33] <wers> where do I change the windows version in winecfg?
[05:33] <CostaRicanGFs> xan1th, 1805-S204
[05:33] <Jacobbs> I ended up making my Ubuntu about 30gigs in total heh
[05:33] <Jacobbs> 10 for root, 1 for swap and 19 for home
[05:33] <wers> oh just saw it :D
[05:33] <TWP-SirStaal> Okay I have a serious problem ... my harddrive says it only got 14.7 gig at most but I certainly have a 60 gig harddrive
[05:33] <badfish> is there an app that plays .wma files in ubuntu?
[05:33] <TWP-SirStaal> Someone know were the prblem is?
[05:33] <carpediem> Jacobbs: yeah, I'd say that's a pretty safe setup
[05:34] <Jacobbs> Now the fun part
[05:34] <Jacobbs> I get to figure out how to get python and stuff on here hah
[05:34] <Jacobbs> I know I'm going to use XAMPP

[05:34] <DasEi> TWP-SirStaal: take a look in gparted
[05:34] <Jacobbs> Cause that's fairly out of the box.
[05:34] <eddwinpa1> legen2440: thanks it did it..
[05:34] <carpediem> Jacobbs: well....minus the X
[05:34] <Jacobbs> yea, cause it'd be UAMPP ;P
[05:34] <mreyfout> anyone know if there is an open-source package for Quartus II

[05:35] <CostaRicanGFs> xan1th, trident cyberbladexp videochip
[05:35] <Jacobbs> Oh, I'm taking a few courses in python
[05:35] <Jacobbs> Not for web deveopment
[05:35] <Jacobbs> If I wanted python on the web, there's a nice package floating around, I think it's called Django
[05:36] <Jacobbs> Anyway, that's probably for another channel hah
[05:36] <carpediem> Jacobbs: then that should be easy.  sudo apt-get install python2.5    and you are done
[05:36] <Jacobbs> I hope grub doesn't screw up stuff heh
[05:36] <eli_> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i6Fr65PFqfk
[05:36] <pan__> how do i make a zip file in console?
[05:37] <chubs> Jacobbs, djangobook.org is fantastic
[05:37] <Jacobbs> eep
[05:37] <Jacobbs> I just got a bunch of "assertion failed" errors >.<

[05:37] <l337ingDisorder> Quick question guys - how do you use Ubuntu? (har har) actually here's my question: in Nautilus, is there any way to filter the file list? On my Windows box I use a file manager called Directory Opus, which features an address bar like in nautilus, but if the directory I'm in is, say, /home/ and I only want to show JPG files, I'd be able to just append *.jpg to the address bar and hit enter,...
[05:37] <l337ingDisorder> ...then the right pane of the file manager displays all the JPG files in the given directory (ie, /home/*.jpg)
[05:38] <Jacobbs> Yay grub works!
[05:38] <carpediem> pan_: zip myzip.zip *
[05:38] <pan__> k thx
[05:39] <l337ingDisorder> does Nautilus have a similar function?
[05:39] <eli_> This has been suggested on ubuntu brainstorm
[05:39] <eli_> http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/3700/
[05:39] <carpediem> pan__: I'm sorry, I left out -r if you want it to recurse directories.
[05:39] <chubs> l337ingDisorder, there is probably an extension or a file manager that does what you want. But I do not know one
[05:40] <pan__> its ok
[05:40] <legend2440> l337ingDisorder: try edit>select pattern
[05:40] <pan__> the * just adds everything in that folder
[05:40] <carpediem> pan__: that's right
[05:40] <goodluck> can somebody help me with touchpad?
[05:40] <l337ingDisorder> legend: hehe thanks that's exactly what I ended up finding from eli_'s url
[05:40] <Jacobbs> I'll touch your pad.
[05:40] <eli_> That only selects the lements
[05:40] <Jacobbs> If that's what you want help with
[05:40] <eli_> it does not filter them
[05:40] <l337ingDisorder> though my preference is just to shorten it to "CTRL+S"
[05:41] <goodluck> Jacobbs :)
[05:41] <l337ingDisorder> it does filter them - it highlights everything that gets caught in the filter
[05:41] <carpediem> goodluck: I wish I could help you, but I've never *ever* had a problem with a touchpad, so I don't know where to begin.
[05:41] <l337ingDisorder> ohh
[05:41] <mreyfout> Installing Ubuntu without a CD-ROM drive: http://www.911cd.net/forums//index.php?showtopic=14564
[05:41] <goodluck> carpediem, hmm, what's your notebook?
[05:41] <l337ingDisorder> eli, you're right - as soon as I click on something they all de-select
[05:41] <l337ingDisorder> guess it's not present yet
[05:41] <chubs> l337ingDisorder, so click and hold
[05:41] <Jacobbs> So when ubuntu creates my user account
[05:41] <l337ingDisorder> ok just wanted to check before I submitted the suggestion to launchpad and ubuforums
[05:42] <Jacobbs> That isn't one with huge priviledges it is?
[05:42] <carpediem> goodluck: I have an HP DV9627CL and a Asus EEE
[05:42] <Jacobbs> I still have to sudo stuff?
[05:42] <jvr> whats the most popular cd/dvd burning program for gnome ?
[05:42] <chubs> Jacobbs, yeah
[05:42] <l337ingDisorder> thanks guys :)
[05:42] <jvr> anyone ?
[05:42] <daklan> Jacobbs: usually, the first user is the only one with sudo priveledges by default
[05:42] <l337ingDisorder> jvr: the native one
[05:42] <eli_> It should have a filter designed like the way it hides hidden files
[05:42] <chubs> jvr, brasero i believe
[05:42] <jvr> the one in places / cd/dvd burner
[05:42] <Jacobbs> I see
[05:42] <goodluck> carpediem, I don't know if there's a way to turn off touchpad phisically on my Acer Aspire 4720, but I don't know where's the problem if not that.
[05:42] <Jacobbs> So my account has sudo privs?
[05:42] <jvr> brasero, ok ill check it out
[05:42] <daklan> Jacobbs: other users have to be given sudo priveledges explicitly
[05:43] <chubs> Jacobbs, easy to find out
[05:43] <Jacobbs> I see
[05:43] <jvr> thanks
[05:43] <carpediem> Jacobbs: first account, yes
[05:43] <goodluck> carpediem, the only tip I have is from tpconfig , which says: Could not open PS/2 Port [/dev/psaux]
[05:43] <Jacobbs> the promt just came up
[05:43] <xan1th> Jacobbs: sudo -l
[05:43] <xan1th> Jacobbs: will show what privs you have for sudo
[05:43]  * daklan remembers visudo
[05:43] <Jacobbs> okay
[05:43] <Jacobbs> thanks xan1th
[05:43] <eli_> Is there a way to make sudo indefinatly cache?
[05:43] <Jacobbs> I'd have to type that in the terminal right?
[05:43] <[[thufir]]> http://gulus.usherbrooke.ca/pub/appl/apache/tomcat/tomcat-6/v6.0.18/README.html download the core or distribution?  I don't see why synaptic would make a bad version, but...
[05:43] <pan__> if internet does not work how do i reset the internet to get it working in console?
[05:43] <xan1th> Jacobbs: correct
[05:43] <carpediem> goodluck: what laptop?
[05:44] <Jacobbs> that's sudo "dash i" right?
[05:44] <pan__> if it wont let me iwlist ath0 scan i see no networks?
[05:44] <xan1th> Jacobbs: dash L
[05:44] <daklan> eli_: the intention of sudo does not permit indefinite cache
[05:44] <Jacobbs> Thanks
[05:44] <daklan> eli_: actually, it does. you can disable password
[05:44] <pan__> iwconfig ath0 mode Managed?
[05:44] <goodluck> carpediem, Acer Aspire 4720
[05:44] <xan1th> eli_: you can modify the timeout time for sudo, and disable password
[05:44] <xan1th> eli_: you can also sudo -v to refresh the timeout timer
[05:44] <carpediem> eli_ just use "sudo su" when you need to be permanent root.  Though, I'll go on record saying its a bad idea.
[05:44] <daklan> eli_: but no point in sudo usage if you can just run as root indefinitely
[05:45] <daklan> you might as well log in as root
[05:45] <Jacobbs> I can install 121 updates O.o
[05:45] <eli_> I find it funny cause alot of people complain the gksu is too much like vista
[05:45] <eli_> but they don't relize is that sudo caches them vista does not
[05:45] <isabel__> xan1th, i apologize
[05:45] <isabel__> i was trying to install xubuntu desktop
[05:45] <isabel__> and for some reason it shut down
[05:46] <isabel__> then i tried to log in to it and it said there was an installation error or something
[05:46] <daklan> eli_: sudo caches a particular session, based on a timer. each session you open requires another sudo transaction
[05:46] <isabel__> and it won't let me purge xubuntu desktop
[05:46] <coagent> Hey I am trying to setup up hostap to serve a wireless network but hostap fails to enable WPA2 even through I am sure the card supports it
[05:46] <eli_> is there a way to make it universally cache
[05:46] <carpediem> goodluck: try /proc/bus/input/devices    (don't paste the output here)
[05:46] <xan1th> isabel__: no worries, i'm not familiar with xubuntu though :/
[05:46] <eli_> cause I find it annoying when I have to type it again in a new terminal
[05:46] <carpediem> goodluck: err, whoops, cat /proc/bus/input/devices
[05:46] <isabel__> i get the following output E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[05:46] <isabel__> xan1th,
[05:47] <Jacobbs> (ALL) ALL
[05:47] <daklan> eli_: you can enable "NOPASSWD" on a particular account
[05:47] <zubwolf> hi, i'm using ubuntu hardy(2.6.24-19-generic), while trying to create an ubuntu package (no apt-source, just the real package source) in a pbuilder chail everything seems fine, dh_make finishes clean, "pbuilder create *.dsc" does fine, but "sudo pbuilder build *.dsc" finishes with "Tcl cannot be found on this system.", seems like "pbuilder create" doesn't care about the tcl-dependency
[05:47] <daklan> eli_: "man sudoers"
[05:47] <zubwolf> any idea about what i can do to get this build done would be really apreciated
[05:47] <nubuntu> DasEi: dpm
[05:47] <Jacobbs> But the way it works is that it doesn't automatically elevate me all the time for admin privs right?
[05:47] <goodluck> carpediem: here you go http://paste.ubuntu.com/48212/
[05:47] <eli_> buit I don't really like not using a password
[05:47] <nubuntu> dont tell me you
[05:47] <eli_> I just don't want it to ask me each time i open a new terminal
[05:47] <nubuntu> re still up
[05:47] <isabel__> xan1th, i got this dpkg: requested operation requires superuser privilege how do i do that?
[05:48] <xan1th> isabel__: sudo (commands)
[05:48] <carpediem> goodluck: hmm, your Synaptics Touchpad did show up
[05:48] <xan1th> isabel__: so for instance, sudo dpkg -i pkg.deb
[05:48] <xan1th> Jacobbs: it'll run that command with superuser privs, whatever that command is, when executed with sudo
[05:48] <daklan> Jacobbs: you have to enter your password (unless you configure it not to ask for one)
[05:49] <goodluck> carpediem, probably there's a way to lock it up manually, i'll check the manual
[05:49] <goodluck> thanks a lot carpediem
[05:49] <DasEi> nubuntu ?
[05:49] <isabel__> xan1th, ok it's doing its thing, now that page asssumes i'm diong a cleaen install but i have already installed the OS can i still follow the direections despite this?
[05:49] <eli_> found it
[05:49] <eli_> its a directive called tty_tickets
[05:50] <xan1th> isabel__: I think yes, but I'm not 100% sure
[05:50] <Jacobbs> oh nise
[05:50] <nubuntu> ya, knoppixnoob, bestcab, etc
[05:50] <isabel__> xan1th, please dont go i0ll brb
[05:50] <Jacobbs> I can read my windows files ^_^
[05:51] <Jacobbs> can Windows read the Ext3 file system?
[05:51] <eli_> yes
[05:51] <eli_> not nativly
[05:51] <Jacobbs> I see
[05:51] <tyso1> anyone know how to run the java runtime from command line?
[05:51] <chubs> tyso1, java
[05:51] <eli_> java (name of calss)
[05:51] <carpediem> goodluck: can you look in /etc/X11/xorg.conf and see if you have a Synaptics Touchpad entry?
[05:51] <tomvolek> anybody runs Ubuntu on 1600x900 resolution ?
[05:52] <daklan> Jacobbs: not without a driver
[05:52] <tyso1> ok how do i run it from the command line?
[05:52] <chubs> eli_, tyso1 for a class it's java class [name]
[05:52] <Bogus8> I popped a new 500gig SATA drive in my system and it shows up in dmesg that a WD500<blah blah blah> is there but it doesn't assign it a device block (sdf or whatever)... why would that be?  I have 3 other SATA drives in this box working fine
[05:52] <tyso1> im trying to install frostwire but it says java is not installed
[05:52] <goodluck> carpediem, yes i have. i looked up the manual and found where i can unlock it phisically, problably someone locked it up today (it was working fine until today)
[05:52] <goodluck> the problem is solved
[05:53] <goodluck> thanks a lot again :)
[05:53] <zubwolf> anybody in here experienced with building ubuntu packages from sourcecode?
[05:53] <carpediem> goodluck: ah, cool.  anytime
[05:53] <tomvolek> anybody runs Ubuntu on 1600x900 resolution ?
[05:53] <daklan> Bogus8: grep for "sd" in /var/log/messages, maybe you missed it
[05:53] <zubwolf> is there another ubuntu channel on this network, where 'more experienced' users are?
[05:53] <tyso1> hey chubs what do you mean its a class?
[05:54] <isabel__> xan1th, ok i was able to log on into xfce
[05:54] <Jacobbs> If I "unmount" a volume in Ubuntu
[05:54] <isabel__> how do i get rid of gnome now?
[05:54] <carpediem> zubwolf:  um....I'm going to pretend you didn't say that
[05:54] <Bogus8> daklan: well, if I do a ls /dev/sd* only the known devices come up
[05:54] <Jacobbs> What exactly does it do?
[05:54] <eli_> have you done "sudo apt-get install java-common"
[05:54] <isabel__> sudo aptitude purge ubuntu-desktop_
[05:54] <tomvolek> anybody runs Ubuntu on 1600x900 resolution ?
[05:54] <daklan> Bogus8: hmm, that's odd
[05:54] <isabel__> ?*
[05:54] <error404notfound> when I try to update using terminal, it says 11 packages are kept back, but it updates using gui, why? how should I do it with terminal?
[05:54] <tyso1> from the command line?
[05:54] <pan__> i have not been able to run ubuntu on that resolution
[05:55] <Bogus8> daklan: could it be my mobo bios? or does linux pretty much override that?
[05:55] <daklan> Bogus8: any chance you can reboot? might be a controller issue, or jumper settings
[05:55] <zubwolf> carpediem, since yesterday night i'm here trying to get a question answered, so, yes, is said that!
[05:55] <carpediem> error404notfound: don't install held back packages.  Great way to bork a system.
[05:55] <tomvolek> pan__  have u tried it .. its the new Sony Viao supports it
[05:55] <carpediem> zubwolf:  I haven't seen  your Q
[05:55] <Bogus8> daklan: actually I did reboot... this is a headless system so hard to see what's going on during POST or boot
[05:55] <legend2440> zubwolf do you mean create deb file using checkinstall?
[05:55] <zcat[1]> !grub
[05:56] <zubwolf> carpediem, i'm using ubuntu hardy(2.6.24-19-generic), while trying to create an ubuntu package (no apt-source, just the real package source) in a pbuilder chail everything seems fine, dh_make finishes clean, "pbuilder create *.dsc" does fine, but "sudo pbuilder build *.dsc" finishes with "Tcl cannot be found on this system.", seems like "pbuilder create" doesn't care about the tcl-dependency
[05:56] <xan1th> isabel__: sudo aptitude remove ubuntu-desktop would remove it
[05:56] <error404notfound> carpediem: but these nclude imp packages such as dnsutil, ssl-blacklist and etc, plus why gui installs them then?
[05:56] <daklan> Bogus8: then you won't be able to detect if it's a controller issue
[05:56] <pan__> i have not tried
[05:56] <zubwolf> legend2440, no, building with pbuilder in a pbuilder chail
[05:56] <tyso1> thanks eli its working
[05:56] <Bogus8> daklan: I can hook up a monitor and keyboard if need be... just a hassle so I was seeing if there wasn't some commands I could throw at it first
[05:56] <eli_> i liked it when I used the NTDLR to boot grub
[05:57] <carpediem> zubwolf:  allright, well, you are right, you are a bit over this channel.  I believe there is a dev channel, but I think its invite only.  Not sure who controls the invites.
[05:57] <daklan> Bogus8: grep the part where the drive gets detected in dmesg. scroll up and down, pastebin if needed
[05:58] <isabel__> xan1th, oki'm going to read the link you gave me n ow
[05:58] <eli_> With the less / more commands is there anyway to keep the ansi escape sequances?
[05:58] <Bogus8> daklan: I grep'd with -A 5 and -B 5 and didn't see much significant... is that enough lines?
[05:58] <zubwolf> carpediem, i see, thx for trying to help anyways!
[05:58] <daklan> Bogus8: try with 10 lines both ways
[05:59] <carpediem> zubwolf:  but it's eating at me, what is pbuilder?  and what is chail, a chroot jail?
[05:59] <Bogus8> daklan: I'm grepping the model of the drive... should I try something else?  (WD500)
[05:59] <tyso1> Starting FrostWire...
[05:59] <tyso1> Java exec not found in PATH, starting auto-search...
[05:59] <tyso1> ls: cannot access /usr/lib/j*: No such file or directory
[05:59] <tyso1> can anyone help with this problem? its telling me to update to 1.5 or higher and i downloaded it but i cant seem to get it to run
[05:59] <daklan> Bogus8: in fact, you might want to look at the beginning of the log, right where the controllers get initialized
[05:59] <FloodBot2> tyso1: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:59] <legend2440> zubwolf is   tcl8.4-dev installed?
[05:59] <error404notfound> I have a 80 and a 120GB HD, how can I create LVM and then install ubuntu on it?
[06:00] <daklan> Bogus8: grep for ata maybe
[06:00] <_Zeus_> error404notfound: what is a LVM?
[06:00] <carpediem> tyso1: have you install Sun-Java using synaptic?
[06:00] <tyso1> no
[06:00] <error404notfound> _Zeus_: never used? Logical Volume Manager, lovely thing
[06:00] <_Zeus_> !info Sun-java | carpediem
[06:00] <tyso1> i gues i should try that
[06:01] <_Zeus_> error404notfound: haven't used it.
[06:01] <Bogus8> daklan: I have 3 other drives in there and a raid 5 built with them, and a regular ATA... this could be ugly ;)
[06:01] <zubwolf> carpediem, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PbuilderHowto
[06:01] <eli_> it is
[06:01] <error404notfound> _Zeus_: must try....
[06:01] <coagent> Can anyone help with a problem setting a Athreos card as WLAN AP?
[06:01] <eli_> sub-java6-bin
[06:01] <eli_> sun*
[06:02] <daklan> Bogus8: i can understand :) hmm, is the drive hooked up to the same controller controlling the raid?
[06:02] <zubwolf> legend2440, tcl, as an dependency, should be installed by pbuilder, dh_make should create that dependency in the ./debian/rules file, i guess
[06:02] <Bogus8> daklan: well, it's a software raid.. so I have 2 to the mobo and 1 to an external card and this one hooked up to that card
[06:02] <_Zeus_> error404notfound: is it some sort of partition manager?
[06:03] <error404notfound> _Zeus_: well for your ease, yes... http://www.howtoforge.com/linux_lvm for details
[06:03] <eli_> LVM for me is a love hate relationship
[06:03] <carpediem> zubwolf:  nice.  I've been wondering for a while how that is done.
[06:03] <legendsohai> can anyone tell me how to make my hidden files looks different from other normal file??
[06:04] <legendsohai> example like the semi-transparent in windows
[06:04] <chubs> put a . in front of them, oh
[06:04] <carpediem> nice
[06:04] <isabel__> xan1th, not to be a pain in the sass but can you tell me what my laptops propper resolution is
[06:04] <daklan> Bogus8: controller driver is loaded?
[06:04] <Bogus8> daklan: yeah, one of the drives on the raid is on that card
[06:04] <carpediem> legendsohai: being hidden isn't different enough?  I mean, if they are hidden, how can they "look" different?
[06:04] <eli_> for a single user or for all users?
[06:05] <xan1th> isabel__: have you tried googling? what is the model?
[06:05] <daklan> Bogus8: does the kernel recognize your drive as an ATA device
[06:05] <error404notfound> legendsohai: put ._ or something before there name, this way they will be different from all other system hidden files and you can easy sort you files asiode
[06:05] <legendsohai> carpediem: i mean the icon
[06:05] <djfobbz> exit
[06:05] <carpediem> legendsohai: so are you saying you've told Nautilus to show hidden files?
[06:06] <Bogus8> daklan: I get this:  ata1.00: ATA-8: WDC WD5000AAJS-22YFA0, 12.01C02, max UDMA/133
[06:06] <legendsohai> carpediem: yes
[06:06] <eli_> you could put an emblem on them
[06:06] <daklan> Bogus8: well, it looks like it's been recognized correctly
[06:06] <^Phantom^> i found them myself :D
[06:07] <legendsohai> carpediem: just because of i have so many folder in my documents... so how can i diffrentiate which is the hidden one
[06:07] <chubs> legendsohai, if you hit control h in nautilus they go completely transparent
[06:07] <carpediem> legendsohai: hmm, I'm not sure you can.  I just usually use CTRL-H and toggle on when I need them, then back off
[06:07] <eli_> show all hidden folders --> CRTL-S --> ".8" --> right click --> emblems
[06:08] <eli_> I mean ".*"
[06:08] <tyso1> eli, carpediem thanks it worked
[06:08] <Bogus8> daklan: if you care to take a gander... it's the only Western Digital 500gig drive (WD500)  http://www.pastebin.ca/1205608
[06:09] <isabel__> xan1th,  by point 6 of the steps on that page the problem's already solved, can you tell me if i have to do steps 7-end? http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-763964.html
[06:10] <daklan> Bogus8: i see "sda" is listed as a 500GB drive
[06:10] <Bogus8> really?!
[06:10] <Bogus8> hmm
[06:11] <daklan> Bogus8: #

[06:11] <xan1th> isabel__: are you running on the live cd?
[06:11] <legendsohai> or is it any other ways to make my folder to become semi-transparent when i press ctrl + h ?
[06:11] <isabel__> how do i get rid of gnome/ubuntu to leave xubuntu? i typed sudo aptitude remove ubuntu-desktop and it says (nope  i'ts already installed=
[06:11] <Bogus8> daklan: you are right... why the hell didn't I have an SDA before?!
[06:11] <isabel__> xan1th, package ubuntu-desktop is not installed so not removed
[06:11] <isabel__> what is the name of it then?
[06:12] <daklan> Bogus8: :)
[06:12] <Bogus8> daklan: if it wasn't for stupid mistakes, I swear I'd be a linux genious ;)
[06:12] <daklan> Bogus8: i really thought it was weird when you said it got detected, but you couldn't see the drive
[06:12] <xan1th> isabel__: you're asking a few different questions, you've got me lost
[06:12] <Bogus8> daklan: agreed, that's why I was in here asking :)
[06:12] <daklan> Bogus8: well, im happy you got it to work
[06:13] <Bogus8> daklan: me too... thank you!
[06:13] <daklan>  Bogus8 you're welcome!
[06:13] <Bogus8> daklan: you don't know why it would have skipped sda before eh?
[06:13] <ogzy> hi all. at gnome-power-manager i dont see menus at the notification are for "Only display icon when charging and discharging" and some more, but just two options thats says show icon and never show icon. What is missing?
[06:13] <isabel__> i mean, first question was if i did what he says on the guide and by step 6 it's already working as i notice that from that step on it assunmes i'm still on the livecd eventhough i already installed should i follow those steps ?
[06:13] <daklan> Bogus8: what skipped sda?
[06:13] <chetnick> how can i remove program completely? (wine)
[06:13] <isabel__> and secondly what is the name of ubuntu/gnome to get rid of it? i used ubuntu-desktop and that didnt work
[06:13] <isabel__> xan1th,
[06:14] <Bogus8> daklan: when the system dolled out devices initially
[06:14] <xan1th> isabel__: if you're not on the live cd, and its working, I'd say you're good to go
[06:14] <eli_> The only way I know that might work is by modifying the .gtk-somthing config file
[06:14] <chetnick> apt-ge install remove seems to leave some stuff.
[06:14] <daklan> Bogus8: your raid devices are configured as /dev/sg*
[06:14] <chubs> chetnick, that's what purge is for
[06:15] <daklan> Bogus8: the 500GB drive probably raced the raid array to /dev/sda
[06:15] <daklan> and the 500GB won :)
[06:15] <Bogus8> daklan: interesting
[06:16] <isabel__> xan1th, and what'sz the name of ubuntu/gnome to remove it?
[06:16] <chetnick> chubs: that's what i fought, but i don't have that command (command not found) should i install it?
[06:16] <daklan> Bogus8: if you noticed, everything else, including the drive that was on the same controller as sda, got a block device after the 500GB
[06:16] <xan1th> isabel__: as far as I know, ubuntu-desktop
[06:16] <daklan> Bogus8: the raid devices were initialized before ata devices
[06:16] <chubs> chetnick, apt-get remove --purge
[06:16] <chetnick> aaaa :)
[06:16] <chetnick> chubs: thank you
[06:16] <Bogus8> daklan: hmm... so my raid devices got bumped yet were still built?
[06:17] <mrBob> Hi can i get any help here with iphone and amarok?
[06:17] <daklan> Bogus8: they were just given different ata block device names. the software raid configured them based on controller location
[06:17] <danbh_intrepid> isabel__: what are you trying to do?
[06:17] <carpediem> zubwolf:  ran across this.  not sure if any is more suited but I'm sure the dev channel is more likely to get your Q answered than here...  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat
[06:17] <usser> mrBob, 3g?
[06:17] <mrBob> usser: yep
[06:17] <isabel__> danbh_intrepid, trying to get rid of gnome to leave xfce which is what i'm on right now
[06:17] <usser> mrBob, forget it, it wont work\
[06:18] <isabel__> when i do sudo aptitude remove ubuntu-desktop it says package not installed so not removed
[06:18] <mrBob> usser: what makes you say that
[06:18] <Bogus8> daklan: even though when I built the raid I gave it block device names?
[06:18] <danbh_intrepid> !purexfce | isabel__     this link might help, but its advice is fairly broken
[06:18] <mrBob> usser: i can get the song into my phone via ssh but songs wont showup
[06:18] <isabel__> danbh_intrepid, thankyou
[06:18] <daklan> Bogus8: didn't md assign sg* block device names to it?
[06:18] <danbh_intrepid> isabel__: the remove instructions contains TONS of random spaces, which prevents things from working
[06:18] <usser> mrBob, cause i looked into that at some point.
[06:19] <usser> mrBob, did u jailbreak it?
[06:19] <mrBob> usser: yep
[06:19] <Mc_Abyss> anyone know how to install a huwei e220 3g modem on 8.04?
[06:19] <Bogus8> daklan: maybe... so when I tell md to use sda/b/c it then renames them to sga/b/c and works with them from then on?
[06:20] <carpediem> mrBob: haven't done it, but I read you have to power it off or some such to get the songs to show up
[06:20] <daklan> Bogus8: internally, they are addressed similar to this : hd(0,0,0)
[06:20] <mrBob> carpediem: i already tried that, doesnt work...
[06:20] <usser> mrBob, try gnomad
[06:20] <daklan> Bogus8: channel, device, partition
[06:21] <mrBob> usser: whats that
[06:21] <daklan> Bogus8: so, block names are irrelevant.
[06:21] <carpediem> gnomad...that's for libnjb devices isn't it?
[06:21] <ogzy> what can be the reason of not seeing the "On Batter Power" menu at the preferences of gnome-power-manager applet at hardy?
[06:21] <Bogus8> daklan: right... so I am the only one using the block device references when making the raid... internally the raid software is using the real ID's for it's job?
[06:21] <WillShears> hi marie
[06:21] <daklan> Bogus8: correct
[06:21] <marie> hello.
[06:21] <^Phantom^> i'm about to up and call the police >_>
[06:21] <mrBob> apple and linux with never get along...
[06:21] <usser> mrBob, a program to sync mp3 players and such
[06:22] <Bogus8> daklan: ok, that makes more sense... if I had realzied that then I would have looked at the block device names differently than I did... one more lesson learned
[06:22] <carpediem> gnomad is for Nomad Jukebox protocol devices, mostly creative players.
[06:22] <[[thufir]]> I changed .bashrc and want the changes to take effect without logging off.  how, pls?
[06:22] <mrBob> usser: its just that.. songs are already in the phone, they just doesnt show up.. what may b causing this
[06:23] <usser> mrBob, they have to be in iphone's database simply copying them is not enough
[06:23] <mrBob> i can connect to the phone via ssh
[06:23] <^Phantom^> my mom and i have both asked my dad to leave, and he is refusing to do so
[06:24] <nubuntu> phantom, whats the problem
[06:24] <Mc_Abyss> ^Phantom^:  lol if ya old enough kick the hell outta him
[06:24] <yigal> mrBob: yes, I agree with you I cannot read my deceased grandfather's autobiography because it is written using iworks in a .cwk file.  I have to find an apple computer to translate it to doc so I can open it with openoffice and turn it into a latex file.  So ya I agree with you.
[06:24] <daklan> [[thufir]]: have you tried opening another terminal and see if the changes took effect?
[06:24] <^Phantom^> he does not live here, and my mom and I have asked him to leave.  He is now trespassing.
[06:25] <nubuntu> omg
[06:25] <daklan> ^Phantom^: #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:25] <mrBob> yigal: try your neighbors pc
[06:25] <[[thufir]]> daklan: I set JAVA HOME for tomcat.  a new shell should do it.

[06:25] <dubby> anyone here know anything about  subversion on an ubuntu system
[06:25] <yigal> mrBob: I may have to do some hacking, I agree

[06:27] <carpediem> mrBob: I've not done the jailbreaking, though I'd like to sync directly from Linux (they day I can, my last WinXP machine is going Linux -- it's only there to sync the iphone)
[06:27] <yigal> mrBob: I'm using a blackberry pearl, I have to use the latest version of vmware workstation with xp to upgrade it's firmware and keep things in synk so there you go
[06:27] <nubuntu> lol
[06:27] <carpediem> mrBob: so I'm listening to your conversation intently.
[06:27] <Mc_Abyss> legend2440: thanks ill check it out now going round friends to sort his out and thought id get info first lol
[06:28] <[[thufir]]> should tomcat go in /usr/local/ or /usr/share/ ?
[06:29] <yigal> [[thufir]]: how are you insatlling it?
[06:29] <mrBob> carpediem: lol thanks, i hope this issue gets solved.
[06:29] <isabel__> how do i know if a command is finished? i mean, i let the && and i can't see the progress of it
[06:29] <isabel__> how do i see if it's finished before closing the terminal
[06:29] <mrBob> yigal: 1 prob, vmware isnt free
[06:29] <yigal> isabel__: pgrep ?
[06:29] <[[thufir]]> yigal: the tomcat mailing list said synaptic was broken, so :  http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/linux/installing-tomcat-6-on-ubuntu/
[06:29] <yigal> mrBob: true, that although there is a bit open source
[06:30] <yigal> [[thufir]]: ok, I'm using aptitude
[06:30] <yigal> ?
[06:30] <[[thufir]]> aptitude is like yum/apt/synaptic? hmm, maybe I'll give that a try.
[06:30] <hubar> Anyone using Provider for Google Calendar here (with thunderbird/lightning)?
[06:31] <yigal> hubar: too paranoid
[06:31] <chubs> [[thufir]], it'd be the same package
[06:31] <snadge> does anyone know why a wubi install onto a laptop.. would just boot into console mode (not X) .. and when you log in as the user, you get a screenful of /dev/null permission denied ?
[06:31] <isabel__> brb
[06:31] <hubar> yigal: ??? What do you mean?
[06:31] <snadge> if i su to root.. and run gdm manually .. (ie.. just plain gdm) it starts.. but if i /etc/init.d/gdm restart .. it doesnt do anything.. cant start it from init.d script :/
[06:31] <[[thufir]]> everything I read says synaptic won't install tomcat correctly ...yes/no?
[06:31] <yigal> hubar: giving google what your up to, that's about all :)
[06:31] <chubs> hubar, google steals your information and sells it to terrorists
[06:32] <hubar> oh.
[06:32] <yigal> hubar: and pedaphiles
[06:32] <hubar> oh well, guess no one uses it.

[06:33] <sullyva86> anybody know where I can set keyboard shortcuts? I just switched from vista so i'm trying to keep things as similar as possible.
[06:34] <yigal> sullyva86: are you using compiz or metacity?
[06:34] <hubar> sullyva86: Go to system->preferences->keyboard shotcut.
[06:34] <isabel__> help, i still can't get rid of gnome
[06:34] <phantomcircuit> he's using metacity if he doesn't know how to change the keyboard shortcuts :P
[06:34] <hubar> sullyva86: err I meant *shortcut*
[06:34] <isabel__> it was still an option on log in
[06:34] <yigal> sullyva86: do what hubar tells you to do, I'm too drunk to worry
[06:35] <sullyva86> yigal: compiz
[06:35] <sullyva86> yigal: if you mean all those effects?
[06:35] <danbh_intrepid> isabel__: did those instructions work?

[06:37] <chattan> hi Guys
[06:37] <carpediem> davidw89: sorry, it's always #ubuntu+1
[06:37] <bestadvocate> Hello  /wave
[06:37] <sullyva86> yigal: ccsm? I think i'm in that now
[06:38] <snadge> why would i be able to start gdm by typing in "gdm" as root.. but if i run /etc/init.d/gdm restart .. it doesnt work?
[06:38] <snadge> this is a fresh install too of 8.04.1 .. absolutely bizarre
[06:38] <carpediem> snadge: define "doesn't work"
[06:38] <davidw89> thk
[06:38] <snadge> it literally doesnt do anything.. just goes back to the prompt
[06:38] <snadge> and says "starting [ok]" or whatever
[06:38] <redrebel> how come when I Places > Network > Windows Network ... I dont see any anything?
[06:38] <redrebel> it shows smb:/// on the location bar
[06:39] <redrebel> but it doesn't show any computers
[06:39] <yigal> sullyva86: compizconfig-settings-manager
[06:39] <carpediem> snadge: look at /var/log/Xorg.0.log  right after you try to run it
[06:39] <redrebel> I have samba installed
[06:39] <redrebel> and smbclient
[06:39] <isabel__> danbh_intrepid, it didn't remove it, it was still htere  as an option on login, and if i try sudo apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop it says not installed so not removed
[06:39] <yigal> I need to play more sudoku
[06:39] <jigp> hello guys i use <IP_ADDRESS> for LAN. and the subnet i assign is <IP_ADDRESS> .. is it correct? :)

[06:39] <pan__> thx legend2440
[06:39] <pan__> how do you have ur name in red
[06:40] <pan__> in xchat?
[06:40] <chubs> pan__, I just made yours for you
[06:40] <pan__> how do u do that?
[06:40] <skillet> heh
[06:41] <redrebel> anyone knows about samba shares?
[06:41] <skillet> pan__, is this red too?
[06:41] <wers> what gnome gui app tells about my hardware info?
[06:41] <pan__> yes
[06:41] <chubs> pan__, how bout this one?
[06:41] <pan__> ><
[06:41] <xan1th> pan__: and this one?
[06:41] <FAJALOU1> redrebel: yes there is a bug about not being able to see them right now
[06:41] <pan__> ok
[06:41] <xan1th> it highlights when we type your name
[06:41] <pan__> oh
[06:41] <skillet> pan__, anything with your name in it is going to highlight
[06:41] <xan1th> or maybe we're just messing with you
[06:41] <FAJALOU1> hi my computer has been freezing lately; i checked the memory and everything checks out fine.  i thought it was the gpu overheating, but to no avail seems how it just happened and the gpu temp is low...
[06:42] <FAJALOU1> any other thoughts?
[06:42] <pan__> oh i c
[06:42] <xan1th> one of the two
[06:42] <redrebel> FAJALOU1, that is good to know, i've been spending hours trying to figure this out
[06:42] <skillet> settings > preferences > colors pan__
[06:42] <Bogus8> sustain transfer at 50mb/sec not too bad from software raid 5 to single sata
[06:42] <chubs> FAJALOU1, check your power supply
[06:42] <yigal> FAJALOU1: what kind of computer?
[06:42] <FAJALOU1> redrebel:  ya they are working on a fix; if you want there is a patch out but you have to compile everything
[06:43] <redrebel> do you have the link?
[06:43] <snadge> okay .. if i type startx .. X comes up, but says "cannot start HAL error"
[06:43] <yigal> redrebel: going gentoo style
[06:43] <FAJALOU1> yigal: chubs i can still see the screen that is the ting, it doesn't shut off, it just poof won't move, and it's a 1ghz mobo with a 6500 gpu
[06:43] <chubs> FAJALOU1, it's usually tough to diagnose a freeze. it's most likely hardware since linux usually fails (somewhat) gracefully
[06:43] <redrebel> i like gentoo
[06:43] <snadge> also i had to chmod 666 /dev/null to get it to load X .. there seems to be something wrong with my /dev
[06:43] <FAJALOU1> chubs:  this is true,,, but what?
[06:43] <danbh_intrepid> isabel__: but that big remove command removed a bunch of stuff, right?
[06:43] <snadge> but this is a fresh install that doesnt make sense :/
[06:43] <yigal> FAJALOU1: irq?
[06:43] <yigal> FAJALOU1: lots of things could do it though
[06:44] <isabel__> danbh_intrepid, didn't remove gnome
[06:44] <FAJALOU1> yigal; i have noacpi and noapic set on my cernel
[06:44] <FAJALOU1> *kernel
[06:44] <yigal> FAJALOU1: what about 2 drivers trying to do the same thing
[06:44] <chubs> FAJALOU1, like I said, when all else fails (or doesn't rather) check the psu
[06:44] <yigal> FAJALOU1: dmesg?
[06:44] <yigal> FAJALOU1: dmesg | tail
[06:44] <danbh_intrepid> isabel__: ok, but you arent answering my question..   were there any errors?
[06:44] <isabel__> yes, it said a certain package wasnt removed
[06:44] <isabel__> capplets or something
[06:44] <daklan> snadge: /dev/null is normally 666
[06:45] <FAJALOU1> redrebel:  unfortunately i don't, but it is on launchpad; it is high up there.
[06:45] <yigal> daklan: the number of the beast :)
[06:45] <skillet> 711 kbit/s on my mobile phone woohoo
[06:45] <danbh_intrepid> isabel__: well, if thats it, I would go for this next step: sudo tasksel install xubuntu-desktop
[06:45] <Frijolie> I can't find a fix for my laptops sound...I'm running a Toshiba laptop and Hardy. Sound works but it's pretty quiet. Checked the volume(s) in various places throughout my system menu and all are turned up to 100% but still sounds like sound is only at 50%
[06:45] <isabel__> waity
[06:45] <chubs> if the beast is universal read/write
[06:45] <isabel__> danbh_intrepid, i took that out fo the command
[06:45] <chubs> i can see how that' be though
[06:45] <isabel__> since i'm already on xubuntu desktop
[06:46] <yigal> Frijolie: pcm what's it at?
[06:46] <isabel__> i took it out thinking why if it's already installed
[06:46] <isabel__> it doesn't need to be isntalled again
[06:46] <daklan> chubs: the execute bit is missing :)
[06:46] <danbh_intrepid> isabel__: mk, can you run the whole command, as is?
[06:46] <isabel__> i'm already on xubuntu i just want to get rid of money
[06:46] <pan__> how much memory is used when u guys boot up ubuntu?
[06:46] <isabel__> sure
[06:46] <chubs> daklan, yeah...?
[06:46] <danbh_intrepid> isabel__: well, im too tired to explain the details...
[06:46] <isabel__> ok i got this output Package capplets is not installed, so not removed E: Couldn't find package data
[06:47] <Frijolie> yigal: which one is that?
[06:47] <isabel__> upon just pasting the command as it is
[06:47] <FAJALOU1> yigal:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/48224/
[06:47] <daklan> chubs: ./the_beast : Permission denied
[06:47] <smm289> does Nvidia or Ati have better support in linux
[06:47] <carpediem> FAJALOU1: is this an IBM by any chance?
[06:48] <pombat42> Hi All
[06:48] <danbh_intrepid> isabel__: can you pastebin all of the output?
[06:48] <isabel__> yes
[06:48] <isabel__> !pastebin
[06:48] <yigal> FAJALOU1: other than the fact that it looks like your getting hacked, what does alsamixer give you?
[06:48] <pombat42> Is there anyway I can merge an Ultimate Ubuntu install into a stock install without hosing stuff?  TIA
[06:48] <FAJALOU1> carpediem:  ummmm,,,,,,no it's an aopen mobo
[06:48] <FAJALOU1> yigal:  >!>!
[06:48] <isabel__> danbh_intrepid, http://paste.ubuntu.com/48226/
[06:49] <carpediem> smm289: that's a question for the ages.  IF you are okay with binary drivers, nvidia's seems to be easier to use.  But, ATI is working on open source drivers, and nvidia isn't doing anything for open source.
[06:49] <yigal> FAJALOU1: it looks someone is trying to get in at least
[06:49] <carpediem> FAJALOU1: well, I have an IBM and I have to tell the kernel to disable acpi or it hangs regularly
[06:49] <yigal> FAJALOU1: but what about alsamixer or amixer for instance?
[06:49] <maxagaz> hi
[06:49] <hd420> anyone know how to derive UUID from partition name usng only what's available on the ramdrive?
[06:49] <FAJALOU1> yigal:  could it be  to the fact that i have two wifi cards ;) ?
[06:49] <chubs> daklan, cat /the_beast > /etc/rc.d/init.d :/
[06:49] <davidw89> Is it a good idea to try Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid Ibex) Alpha 6?
[06:50] <FAJALOU1> and yigal; how can i check that/
[06:50] <daklan> yigal: the last 3 IP's belong to freenode.net
[06:50] <legend2440> isabel__: the space between caplets and -data is messing it up
[06:50] <yigal> FAJALOU1: use a term, just go $alsamixer
[06:50] <Frijolie> yigal: is that the keyboard control of your volume?
[06:50] <legend2440> isabel__: the space between capplets and -data is messing it up
[06:50] <pan__> alsamixer is awsome
[06:50] <bestadvocate> davidw89: I'm thinking it'll be shaky  :)
[06:50] <FAJALOU1> yigal:  i typed in alsamixer and stuff came up?/
[06:50] <yigal> Frijolie: no, terminal control, not sure if that's totally correct
[06:50] <pan__> in fluxbox
[06:50] <isabel__> ok ill correct that
[06:51] <yigal> good, give me a picture
[06:51] <yigal> FAJALOU1: I'm pretty drunk so I might not be able to help you so much
[06:51] <FAJALOU1> ummm ok lol
[06:51] <yigal> FAJALOU1: but I willing to try :)
[06:51] <carpediem> hd420: does it show up this way ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid/   ??
[06:52] <hd420> carpe: no, I checked tat
[06:52] <bestadvocate> yay for drunk computer help
[06:52] <Frijolie> yigal: how do you check that one? I can only find PulseAudio volume control
[06:52] <chubs> yeah no way that could end up badly :|
[06:52] <carpediem> hd420: and          blkid /dev/sda1
[06:52] <ilovelinux33467> I need help setting up a dns server
[06:53] <marie> I am sorry, I still don't understand this RESOURCES_64BIT option in the kernel.  Isn't this only for a 64-bit system?  I installed from an i686 stage3 so this system is a 32 bit OS, albeit on a core2 duo, but still I am only running in 32 bit.  What does this do for me?  I keep thinking I should turn it off, but it is enabled by default in the default gentoo-sources.
[06:53] <daklan> marie: wrong channel
[06:53] <carpediem> hd420:  sorry, need sudo for that last one to work
[06:53] <hd420> "/bn/sh: blkid: not found
[06:54] <legend2440> marie: #gentoo
[06:54] <chubs> hah. marie #gentoo is down the road
[06:54] <carpediem> hd420: when you say ramdrive, you mean the live-cd?
[06:54] <marie> daklan: doh!
[06:54] <sumix> Does gnome come with debian netinst?
[06:54] <marie> chubs: legend:  oops!
[06:54] <hd420> carpediem: no... grub failed to boot he system
[06:54] <danbh_intrepid> isabel__: that was an oops on my part
[06:54] <hd420> and so I've been dropped into some sort of a ramdrive
[06:54] <danbh_intrepid> I can pastebin the command
[06:55] <carpediem> hd420: oh, yeah, been there....
[06:55] <isabel__> danbh_intrepid, i'd really appreciate it i keep finding spaces
[06:55] <hd420> figured
[06:55] <hd420> remember wat you did?
[06:55] <marie> wow.  it seems posting to this channel generates some spam bots.
[06:55] <isaac_> Okay this is odd.......... I'm using a USB soundcard.  It works fine for playing songs, but if I watch a youtube video it has no sound.  How do I get Firefox to send sound to ALSA?
[06:55] <Fersure> ? wifi
[06:55] <Fersure> o.o
[06:56] <isabel__> speaking of which
[06:56] <daklan> hd420: noticed any error when grub was loading?
[06:56] <carpediem> hd420: hmm, no, not really, been years.  Back when I ran Gentoo and rolled my own kernels, I ended up there many times.
[06:56] <isabel__> what was the command for the java and such codeccs
[06:56] <danbh_intrepid> isabel__: http://paste.ubuntu.com/48228/
[06:56] <isabel__> nonfree or something
[06:56] <Kolma> um...
[06:56] <isabel__> to be able to youtube
[06:56] <Kolma> i did something weird..
[06:56] <Kolma> the top bar
[06:56] <daklan> hd420: sounds like a dirty bit on your root partition
[06:57]  * bestadvocate is heading out. Peace!
[06:57] <bobertdos> isabel__: Are you talking about: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras?
[06:57] <Kolma> anyways.... i seem to have remove the top bar on all my windows... u know the bar with - [] X , i have no idea how i did, how do i get it back?
[06:57] <danbh_intrepid> isabel__: bobertdos: if you are on xubuntu, then it will be xubuntu-restricted-extras
[06:58] <danbh_intrepid> isabel__: is the command running?  I think Im gona head out soon
[06:58] <Kolma> any1 can help? :(
[06:58] <bobertdos> danbh_intrepid: yes, of course :)
[06:58] <isabel__> danbh_intrepid, yep, thankyou so much
[06:59] <isaac_> Okay this is odd.......... I'm using a USB soundcard.  It works fine for playing songs, but if I watch a youtube video it has no sound.  How do I get Firefox to send sound to ALSA?
[06:59] <chubs> just have faith
[06:59] <carpediem> Kolma: probably you lost Metacity or Emerald....try Alt-F2, and when the box comes up type "metacity"
[06:59] <bobertdos> isaac_: Have you installed libflashsupport?
[06:59] <isaac_> libwhat?
[07:00] <Kolma> thn how do i exit alt-f2..
[07:00] <isaac_> I got gnash for firefox
[07:00] <Kolma> i tried it once
[07:00] <Kolma> brought a black screen with text
[07:00]  * Kolma stabs spammers
[07:00] <legend2440> isabel__: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[07:00] <carpediem> Kolma: umm, it should show a Run dialog, does it not?
[07:00] <hd420> daklan: no, no errors from grub
[07:00] <isaac_> I heard the official flash was broken, gnash was the best atm.
[07:00]  * bobertdos also stabs spammers
[07:00] <hd420> it just kicks me into initramfs
[07:00] <Kolma> alt f2 doesnt do anything
[07:00] <Kolma> ill try in terminal
[07:01] <daklan> hd420: you mean it just dumped you to single user mode without prompting you?
[07:01] <hd420> and I suspect it just needs the uuid for my partitions
[07:01] <Kolma> OH!
[07:01] <Kolma> figured it out :D
[07:01] <Kolma> $ metacity replace
[07:01] <Kolma> $ metacity --replace
[07:01] <Kolma> :D
[07:01] <bobertdos> isaac_: Well, no, it's not broken. It's Pulseaudio that causes all the problems right now. I actually use the RC for flash 10. Once you tweak it, it's a heck of a lot more stable than 9.
[07:01] <isabel__> itll apparnetly take about an hour to get rid of gnome
[07:01] <isabel__> bbl
[07:02] <isaac_> bobertdos so install the real flash player, then libflashsupport?
[07:02] <hd420> daklan: linux has moved away from the /dev/[sh]da# method of addressing partitions, my fstab and grub menu.lst apparently haven't been updated to reflect this change
[07:03] <hd420> so, until I figure out what the corresponding UUID is for my boot partition, I'm pretty much hosed
[07:03] <isaac_> Oh no.............
[07:03] <bobertdos> isaac_: Yes, and get rid of gnash before installing. Of course, you needn't take my word as law, just a suggestion. Libflashsupport doesn't work wonderfully for everyone either. That's another reason I use 10 :D
[07:03]  * isaac_ would cuss if he weren't a christian.
[07:03] <daklan> hd420: ah, i get the issue
[07:03] <isaac_> I just noticed I did not install the firefox PLUGIN for gnash
[07:03] <wishit> morning
[07:04]  * isaac_ bangs his head against the wall repeatedly.  It's kind of soothing actually.  Thud.  Thud. Thud.
[07:04] <bobertdos> isaac_: hahaha, don't feel bad. It's really easy to overlook certain packages.
[07:04] <hd420> daklan: do you have a solution to it?
[07:04] <chubs> isaac_, it's okay. gnash is mostly the same with the plugin installed as opposed to without
[07:04] <isaac_> Man, is anyone else being spammed half to death?
[07:05] <bobertdos> I believe we all are.
[07:05] <pan__> why does firefox work so hard
[07:05] <isaac_> What is the real flash player?  All I can find is gnash
[07:05] <chubs> pan__, because it loves you
[07:05] <daklan> hd420: you can try using a live iso to mount the partition, and read the contents of /dev/disk/by-uuid/
[07:05] <hubar> isaac_: try flashplayer-nonfree
[07:05] <pan__> darn
[07:06] <jim_p> hello
[07:06] <hd420> daklan: don't have a live ISO handy
[07:06] <Brainyiscool__> Stupid internet.
[07:06] <hd420> this sort of thing ought to be included on the initramfs though
[07:06] <Brainyiscool__> Is it possible to have ubuntu wake up/power on at a certain time?
[07:07] <bobertdos> pan__: Firefox (in all OS's actually) has always hogged system resources, especially when using flash in Linux). It's one of the browsers greatest weaknesses. There is a way to cut down flash's cpu consumption though.
[07:07] <daklan> hd420: well, have you tried mounting it in single user mode?
[07:07] <jim_p> is any admin here?
[07:07] <pan__> ah maybe thats why
[07:07] <jim_p> i just got a bot message!
[07:07] <pan__> pandora.com
[07:07] <Brainyiscool__> What is up with the spam in here...
[07:07] <wishit> ive good the following "feature" :) : i put "hdparm -B 255 /dev/sda" into rc.local to stop my thinkpads hdd from a noisy uncharging ("Clunk" sound)of the head every few seconds. works fine, after waking the notebook up from sleepmode, this command has to be entered by hand again.. any ideas?
[07:07] <chubs> I dno about you guys, but they've convinced me to start sk8ing
[07:08] <jim_p> Brainyiscool: are you an admin?
[07:08] <Brainyiscool___> Grrr...
[07:08] <sfer3> !offtopic | chubs

[07:09] <chubs> sfer3, !lightenup
[07:09] <sfer3> Sorry :P
[07:09] <Frogzoo> rohit: /etc/network/interfaces and read the manpage
[07:09] <sfer3> Everyone else getting these from SwissCheeseCrepe, I suppose?
[07:09] <jim_p> yes
[07:09] <rohit> can youplz give me detail procedure
[07:10] <bobertdos> yep

[07:11] <chubs> bobertdos, they aren't in the channel
[07:11] <isaac_> Oh, and travislingo32, just in.
[07:11] <daklan> Brainyiscool: no, i meant some motherboards have timers that wake up the computer from S1/S3
[07:11] <Mc_Abyss> lol i must be the lucky one
[07:11] <bobertdos> chubs: I figured not, just checking
[07:11] <Brainyiscool____> I'm wanting to know if I can set up a script to tell ubuntu to power down, the wake up at a certain time
[07:11]  * Brainyiscool____ slaps his internet
[07:11] <isaac_> Okay, I'm out.  This spam junk is getting on my nerves.
[07:12] <rohit> i want to creat new wired network connection? how can i creat it ???
[07:12] <danbh_intrepid> im not getting spammed...
[07:12] <chubs> bobertdos, I was referring to the spambots, not the ops
[07:12] <daklan> Brainyiscool: you can probably write a script to send your computer into low power / shutdown, and have your motherboard's timer wake the computer up
[07:13] <bobertdos> chubs: That's true too, but you know, I figure they'd be more likely to communicate with freenode than any others, oh well.
[07:13] <hd420> daklan: /dev/sda1 does not exist. Dropping to a shell
[07:14] <brandonmpace> Who here has tried 8.10?
[07:14] <Daisuke_Ido> brandonmpace: all the people in #ubuntu+1

[07:14] <clarenc1> Wine how to make the correct implementation of the Microsoft software? Because the school is Microsoft's software, but I do not want to give up using Linux, before I had installed Wine, but also the success of the installation of Office2003, VB2005, but can not be right to start, The use of software, perhaps you might be suggested that I use VirtualBox, but the biggest drawback is that it will take up too much memory and lead to the use

[07:16] <snuxoll> cumulus007: most are made using Inkscape or another SVG editor

[07:17] <cumulus007> snuxoll, do they provide some gtk elements I can drag and drop?

[07:17] <J-n> damn
[07:17] <J-n> darn*
[07:17] <snuxoll> cumulus007: most of the time they aren't even cut
[07:17] <snuxoll> cumulus007: most GTK mockups are done using nothing but SVG primitives
[07:17] <rohit> anybody can tell me how can i creat new wired network connection in ubuntu ???
[07:18] <bobertdos> cumulus007: What are you needing to do with such mockups?

[07:19] <jim_p> vogty: i may be able to help
[07:19] <cumulus007> bobertdos, What's Glade?
[07:19] <cumulus007> Bytheway, I like the QT 4 designer
[07:19] <cumulus007> is there something like that for gnome?
[07:20] <vogty> how can i install the card ? i am a linux noob, sorry
[07:20] <cumulus007> because qt has a kde look
[07:20] <daklan> maxagaz: are you familiar with smartctl?
[07:20] <jim_p> pm mecan we pm each other for help?
[07:20] <clarenc1> My question is emergency!
[07:20] <snuxoll> cumulus007: there's Glade
[07:20] <cumulus007> vogty, have you ever googled for this card?
[07:20] <jim_p> grrrr
[07:20] <bobertdos> cumulus007: Well, it's a GUI designer meant to streamline developing GTK programs, but you could just make up designs and screenshot them.
[07:20] <cumulus007> Okay, nice
[07:20] <clarenc1> for me
[07:20] <maxagaz> daklan: no, but if it can help, I'm very interested
[07:20] <daklan> maxagaz: first, let's start with the facts. what happened prior to you fixing your partition?
[07:20] <jim_p> can we pm eacg other for help or not because of spam?
[07:20] <snuxoll> clarenc1: so ask your question
[07:20] <bobertdos> !info glade > cumulus007
[07:21] <vogty> yes, i have but i have errors, i tried the hvr4000-ce31158b75ae.tar.gz driver
[07:21] <cumulus007> bobertdos, thx
[07:21] <cumulus007> bobertdos, which version of glade should I install
[07:21] <cumulus007> glade, glade-3 etc.
[07:21] <hml> how do I download *.rm files in ubuntu?
[07:21] <snuxoll> cumulus007: glade-3
[07:22] <chubs> hml, the same way you'd download them outside of ubuntu
[07:22] <cumulus007> okay, thx :)
[07:22] <cumulus007> hml, do you mean "how do I run"
[07:22] <hml> chubs: how do you download themn outside of ubuntu?
[07:22] <vogty> i extract the tar file but at the beginning with make i got errors
[07:22] <cumulus007> snuxoll, or glade-gnome-3?
[07:22] <watchthehit> #Hack
[07:22] <hml> how do I download real media files? like i have clive and youtube-dl for flash files; but how do i download *.rm files?
[07:22] <chubs> hml, wget file.rm, open firefox and right click save etc.
[07:23] <carpediem> hml:  sudo apt-get install realplayer
[07:23] <chubs> watchthehit, it's /join
[07:24] <hml> so i open up the *.rm ; how do I download something like: rtsp://<IP_ADDRESS>:554//bibs/f2005/group1/synthbio/20051025.rm?start=40:15&end=1:45:00
[07:24] <bobertdos> cumulus007: glade-gnome-3, OR actually, if there's a meta package just called glade, that should install what you need too.
[07:24] <carpediem> hml: did you install realplayer?  that's a stream, you can't just download it.
[07:24] <snuxoll> bobertdos: glade == glade 2
[07:24] <cumulus007> bobertdos, I  installed the gnome version already
[07:24] <cumulus007> now starting it...
[07:25] <cumulus007> aah, thank you
[07:25] <cumulus007> this is exactly where I am looking for :D
[07:25] <snuxoll> hml: if you have a realmedia stream like that you'll want Helix Player, which is the open source realplayer (supported by real networks)
[07:25] <bobertdos> snuxoll: Yeah, I knew that in the back of my mind. Although, since he's not actually programming, I don't think it'll matter.
[07:25] <clarenc1> Uh......excuse me..
[07:25] <Brainyiscool3> Perhaps it's just me, or has the spam stopped?
[07:25] <snuxoll> clarenc1: we can't answer your question without you asking it
[07:25] <carpediem> hml: you sure, last time I checked, Helix didn't play RM...but maybe it's come a ways since I did
[07:26] <J-n> hml mplayer does that quite well, but you've gotta do it command line from what i recall but it was pretty easy, and was explained in the manual.
[07:26] <clarenc1> snuxoll,I ask  Wine how to make the correct implementation of the Microsoft software? Because the school is Microsoft's software, but I do not want to give up using Linux, before I had installed Wine, but also the success of the installation of Office2003, VB2005, but can not be right to start, The use of software, perhaps you might be suggested that I use VirtualBox, but the biggest drawback is that it will take up too much memor
[07:27] <snuxoll> clarenc1: what?
[07:27] <_LiNuX_> Goodmorning..............
[07:27] <Crazyguy> snuxoll, exactly what I was thinking
[07:27] <Kira[work]> You know how you can use "sudo" once and then you don't have to enter your password again for some time afterwards?
[07:27] <snuxoll> Kira[work]: yeah, what about it?
[07:28] <Sporki> gomorr'n
[07:28] <Sporki> ops wc
[07:28] <Kira[work]> Is there a way to immediately relinquish root rights without closing the shell?
[07:28] <snuxoll> Kira[work]: yeah, but I don't remember how
[07:28] <daklan> Kira[work]: you can set the PASSWD directive in /etc/sudoers
[07:28] <chubs> /etc/sudoers
[07:29] <clarenc1> snuxoll, My question is _SetupBidi('source'); Wine how to make the correct implementation of the Microsoft software?
[07:29] <Kira[work]> sudo?
[07:29] <Brainyiscool3> clarenc1: WINE cannot support all software.  Why don't you look at alternatives such as OpenOffice?  If you are truly in need of Micro$oft software, dual boot windows

[07:32] <clarenc1> I am not and I do not want to support the language question, because very few people inside, and I hope I asked the question can be asked of the IRC in a faster understanding of the solution to the problem
[07:32] <_LiNuX_> -c what is meaning?
[07:33] <bazhang> check local system
[07:34] <daklan> clarenc1: i don't think anyone understands what you're trying to say (at least I don't)

[07:35] <linatrix> morning
[07:35] <J-n> clarenc1:  What do you want to know? WINE does not work with all software, but it works with a lot of stuff. the wine appdb can tell you more about what programs are supported.

[07:41] <bazhang> sfer3, depends if he has it setup properly
[07:41] <RadishRabbit1> how to do link it so that the target machine won't need to install its own gsl lib for it to work?
[07:41] <RadishRabbit1> is this called static linking?

[07:45] <bazhang> sfer3, thanks
[07:45] <chubs> sfer3, not joking, I know a bit of chinese if that is his native language
[07:45] <clarenc1> bazhang, how?
[07:45] <J-n> clarenc1: Have you followed the instructions on how to install these programs using wine? those sorts of installs will need some extra work to get them working 100% with wine. the appdb will have the answers you want.

[07:48] <BoltClock> hi, recently gnome (on hardy) has been reacting weird to my ctrl key. sometimes when navigating my text editors with ctrl+left or +right, gnome might start behaving as if ive been holding ctrl indefinitely. the whole interface breaks and i cant do much unless i do ctrl+alt+backspace. i dont think its my keyboard, i just changed its batteries and the problem persists...
[07:48] <bazhang> clarenc1, you need to read the links provided at appdb and wine ubuntu wiki
[07:48] <daklan> i don't understand why a lot of people seem to have problems with flash and firefox. i just went to youtube.com and managed to view videos without any problems
[07:49] <michael_> bazang: when i try the dbkg -i skyp*.deb says requires libsound2...version on system is 1.0.5-libuntu.
[07:49] <michael_> and so on...
[07:49] <bazhang> NinjaBuntu, you dont need rpm for that
[07:49] <michael_> wat should i do to install this dependences
[07:49] <NinjaBuntu> ok uninstall Flash then try it your self...
[07:49] <bazhang> michael_, where did you download it
[07:49] <michael_> let me confirm
[07:49] <NinjaBuntu> it says i have to manual install Flash player...

[07:51] <bazhang> !html
[07:51] <J-n> clarenc1: use google. The answers are there for you. Though, if you arent taking a class SPESIFICALLY about office 2003. Use OpenOffice, as it works better, and can save files to be just like office 2003 files.
[07:51] <Jacobbs> So I'm a newb
[07:51] <sfer3> snakeacid: Try Nvu, which is now Kompozer

[08:11] <DVS01> hi
[08:12] <combatwombat_nz> michael: there is a library to add Skype to it, yes
[08:12] <DVS01> there are some apps that i want to install from source. however, i want the benefit of package management. how can i make a .deb out of a source based install?
[08:13] <combatwombat_nz> michael: www.myjobspace.co.nz/images/pidgin/
[08:13] <rebel_kid> sorry closed the wrong terminal
[08:13] <michael_> combat..let me download pidgin then get back.
[08:14] <cherva> can someone explain to me this ? http://b.imagehost.org/0175/Screenshot.png
[08:15] <Flannel> cherva: What needs explaining?
[08:15] <arquebus> what are good 3D games to play in ubuntu? (no wine, just repo)
[08:16] <Flannel> !games | arquebus
[08:16] <cherva> Flannel: how can all files be 38.4 GB and gparted tells me that I've used 64.77 GB
[08:17] <arquebus> k, thx
[08:19] <Flannel> cherva: do this in a terminal: du -h /
[08:19] <austin> hi?
[08:19] <austin> anybody on?
[08:19] <Flannel> !hi | austin
[08:20] <cherva> Flannel: wont this calculate the /media folder too ? because there's mounted the other 70GB partition
[08:21] <Flannel> cherva: Mmm, it will.  But we can do du -h /media/hda1 later and subtract.  Thatd be the easiest way.
[08:21] <Flannel> cherva: Or we could exclude it, but we'll want size of /media/sda1 anyway, so just taking the two and subtracting isn't a big deal
[08:24] <rebel_kid> is there a bittorrent for ubuntu?
[08:24] <bazhang> transmission rebel_kid
[08:24] <rebel_kid> bazhang, i meant a bittorrent download

[08:25] <bazhang> yes austin_
[08:26] <rebel_kid> bazhang, not found on server
[08:26] <austin_> hi so what can we talk about?
[08:26] <physically_fit> hi, i know this is not ubuntu related, but i can't get help anywhere and i've tried many programs already, but i need to know the name of an Irc client that lets me Tile the channel windows. thanks in advance.
[08:26] <bazhang> rebel_kid, check the last two links
[08:26] <cge> physically_fit: I think irssi will do that?
[08:26] <Daft_Punk> I manually changed my trash icon by going to properties and dragging a new icon on the trash. I realize that the icon for FULL doesn't appear now so how can I make it go back to normal?
[08:27] <bazhang> austin_, this is ubuntu OS support channel; chit chat in #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:27] <austin_> so how do you do thoes special affects for ubuntu
[08:27] <bazhang> !ccsm | austin_

[08:28] <reikon_> aspell doesn't recognize "doesn't" and "isn't". It uses ' as a word delimiter. Is there any way I can change this easily?
[08:29] <physically_fit> cge, thanks

[08:33] <michael_> Install the .deb package using the following command
[08:33] <michael_> sudo dpkg -i pidgin_2.0.0beta7devel.vicox-1_i386.deb
[08:33] <reikon_> Savira: use envy-ng?
[08:33] <FloodBot2> michael_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:33] <michael_> ok
[08:33] <combatwombat_nz> michael: what version of ubuntu?
[08:33] <re0> that's an audio editor?
[08:33] <re0> i'll see if I can find it
[08:33] <skillet> michael_, that version is kinda old
[08:33] <michael_> yes
[08:34] <michael_> its old
[08:34] <michael_> skillnet?
[08:34] <austin_> so how come you dont upgrade
[08:34] <isabel__> what is the name of that program that depackages tarballs and zips
[08:34] <michael_> austin r u chatin to me?
[08:34] <austin_> yes
[08:34] <skillet> 2.5.1 is out
[08:34] <combatwombat_nz> michael: did sudo apt-get install pidgin not work?
[08:34] <reikon_> re0: gnusound, ardour, ecawave, kwave
[08:34] <skillet> i think he wants the old version from some reason
[08:35] <isabel__> !apps
[08:35] <michael_> let me try
[08:35] <michael_> combat
[08:35] <austin_> i have the lates
[08:35] <isabel__> is there a page with a list of all the ubuntu apps and their names on the terminal?
[08:35] <austin_> of pidgin
[08:35] <reikon_> Savira: that is, sudo apt-get install envyng-gtk
[08:35] <reikon_> then use envy ot get the latest drivers
[08:36] <reikon_> isabel__: uh... kind of. http://packages.ubuntu.com/
[08:36] <michael_> combat: it says requires many dependencies
[08:36] <reikon_> isabel__: you can also use: apt-cache search foobar
[08:36] <austin_> that sucks
[08:36] <combatwombat_nz> michael: yes
[08:37] <austin_> michael are you on a laptop or pc?
[08:37] <michael_> combat how do i install all this packages
[08:37] <michael_> austin: pc
[08:37] <combatwombat_nz> michael: apt-get will do it for you
[08:37] <michael_> combat: i mean all the dependencies
[08:37] <austin_> oh i se
[08:37] <austin_> what other os's do you have
[08:37] <Lanlost> Is thereHello again. Can anyone tell me if it is possible to run a seperate X window running? As in how you can hit ctrl-alt f7 and load up the running. What I want is to be able to hit ctrl-alt-f8 or something and have a second one running at the same time.
[08:38] <Flannel> cherva: Right, thats what it says is used
[08:38] <le_mischa> michael_: dependencies: sudo apt-get -f install
[08:38] <combatwombat_nz> lanlost: yes it is possible
[08:38] <Savira> reikon_: whats the command to use envy
[08:38] <blue-frog> Lanlost: you can install xnest and then you can launch another session while running your own
[08:38] <ushimitsudoki> Lanslot: sometimes I launch a game in a separate X window -- something like that you mean? You can "flip" between the X sessions
[08:38] <reikon_> Savira: do you not have a GUI?
[08:38] <Lanlost> I'm pretty sure I remember hearing it is possible. I know it sounds like a strange request. I don't want an extra virtual desktop or anything. Isn't there a way by specifying something when loading X?
