[06:02] <LjL> yoshig3: well yeah, but those are just "smart" utilities to reach that function. in general, you can just right click a file/directory, do "Properties", and specify whether you want it to be compressed or not, and encrypted or not
[06:02] <yoshig3> nothlit: That's what I said lol
[06:02] <nothlit> yoshig3, well then i missed it
[06:02] <LjL> nothlit: the last one, no. it's a mixture of spanish and italian, more than anything else :)
[06:02] <tuxub> nothlit, I can burn those type of discs in windows with nero. are you sure?
[06:03] <loulou> vous me taite chier
[06:03] <msun> Q:  I am installing Ubuntu and during the install I need to edit my xorg.conf and restart gdm, but it fails to restart.  Is there a way to do this?  I need to do this so it will display correctly on my widescreen monitor, and using the alternate cd is not an option for me for certain reasons.   is there any way to get this to work
[06:03] <yoshig3> nothlit: No, that's what I mean- It didn't look like french to me either
[06:03] <yoshig3> lol
[06:03] <yoshig3> LjL: LjL, I have a question, and I don't want you to hate me for it. Please. May I ask?(I know don't ask to ask, but this is a dangerous question.)
[06:03] <dfwlinuxguy> msun if it fails to restart, it is likely a problem with your xorg.conf
[06:04] <LjL> !pm | aialca_
[06:04] <ubotu> aialca_: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can also benefit. Please don't PM a user in the channel without asking first.
[06:04] <nothlit> yoshig3, depends on what you mean by dangerous, you can pm or use #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:04] <LjL> yoshig3: ... depends. if it's too offtopic, perhaps you'd want to be on the safe side and try asking in #ubuntu-offtopic :P
[06:04] <yoshig3> LjL: I shall :D
[06:04] <msun> Is there a way to stop the installer from using whatever bizarre graphics display mode it keeps going into?  ... to force it to use a standard mode?
[06:05] <dfwlinuxguy> msun /etc/init.d/gdm will stop|start|restart gdm
[06:05] <msun> dfwlinuxguy: i do that, it stops just fine, but starting fails :(
[06:05] <chrisjw> hi, i'm using amsn, I have tahoma installed but for some reason amsn can't see Tahoma, any advice?
[06:05] <msun> and i am quite certain my xorg.conf changes are ok as they work if i do it on a GOOD system ... just not during the cd-install process
[06:06] <kool> please french
[06:06] <LjL> !fr | kool
[06:06] <ubotu> kool: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[06:06] <dfwlinuxguy> msun ...you have a problem with your config then try running dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[06:06] <kool> pleade french
[06:07] <dfwlinuxguy> msun... unless the machines are identical in hardware, you can't just copy over a config for X and expect it to work
[06:07] <Salil> hello I am facing some problem while installing the ubuntu distro ..
[06:07] <msun> oh wait i know why, the installation program is still running in the graphical window while i am in alt-f1 terminal!! DUH.  Maybe if I kill that process first, THEN restart gdm, it will work?  Then I just need to restart the installer program's process?  anyone?
[06:08] <Salil> Installation went through fine ....  but while trying to run update-manager, it ask for root password and when I gave passowrd, it says "incorrect" password
[06:08] <Salil> and came out
[06:08] <Salil> not sure what is going wrong ..
[06:08] <robdeman> could anybody send me the original /etc/apache2/sites-availanle/default ?
[06:08] <dfwlinuxguy> salil...it doesn't ask for root's password, but your username password
[06:09] <Salil> the only difference in the installation was, I have created a root user and assign the password for root user during installtion
[06:09] <nothlit> Salil, you give your regular password
[06:09] <Salil> oh .. no  my root password and username password are the same
[06:09] <Salil> it doesn't work nothlit
[06:09] <nothlit> Salil, you can't create a root account during installation
[06:10] <Salil> during installation it asked for creating a user, there I entered root  and set password
[06:10] <Vorbote> Salil: you may be able to fix up your system by installing user-setup and running it.
[06:10] <Salil> but I can du 'su -' with this credentials
[06:10] <chrisjw> Can anyone help me? applications like xchat etc are all using tahoma but for some reason amsn can't see tahoma
[06:10] <Vorbote> Salil: emphasis on *may*
[06:10] <Salil> :-)
[06:10] <weswh-> if i do sudo apt-get install openssh-server (from the livecd) - where does it pull the install from - the cd? that command looks a bit dated to me...found it in a tutorial
[06:10] <Salil> will try that
[06:11] <Salil> user-setup has to be installed seperately
[06:11] <Salil> ?
[06:11] <dabaR_> I installed a program called mixxx, from universe, and when I run it, it tells me the audio device could not be opened. terminal output: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36850/. I tried killing esd, but no sound. Ideas?

[06:11] <kool> pipupipupiupiupiup
[06:12] <Salil> user-setup where do I get from ?
[06:12] <Salil> if it is a tar ball, I can install - even if it is a rpm package , I cannot b'se rpm is not installed
[06:12] <Salil> I used to use Fedora .. so tuned all the concepts according to that

[06:23] <jrib> ArCHoNKoG: how are you trying to update?
[06:23] <chrisjw> where is the fonts folder

[06:24] <jrib> ArCHoNKoG: that error means there is another APT program working already, maybe update-manager?  another apt-get?  dpkg?
[06:24] <chrisjw> i've already installed some fonts i just forgot where the folder is
[06:24] <ArCHoNKoG> i have none open

[06:27] <DarkCookie> can anyone help me? i seem to be getting the http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36853/ error when i run Tibia
[06:27] <chrisjw> hm
[06:27] <chrisjw> how do i search for a wildcard
[06:27] <chrisjw> i.e.
[06:27] <jrib> ArCHoNKoG: oh, I see now.   The file was deleted somehow.  Usually the error just says resouce unavailable.  Let me see if there are any special requirements for creating it again
[06:27] <chrisjw> whereis *.ttf
[06:27] <chrisjw> i thought that would work
[06:27] <jrib> chrisjw: locate '*.ttf'
[06:28] <chrisjw> ty
[06:28] <ArCHoNKoG> jrib, how would it gotten deleted?
[06:28] <jrib> ArCHoNKoG: usually, the user deletes it.    I just tried to add php5-snmp and php5-gd, and they both complained about my php5 versions - " Depends: php5-common (= 5.1.2-1ubuntu3) but 5.1.2-1ubuntu3.3 is to be installed"  Seems to me that the php5-gd and php5-snmp packages were never updated.
[06:29] <ArCHoNKoG> jrib, alright.
[06:29] <\lart> anyone have thoughts to share on that?
[06:30] <DarkCookie> doesn't ubuntu have a c compiler preinstalled? my program says no c compiler found in $PATH
[06:30] <jrib> DarkCookie: no, it doesn't

[06:30] <\lart> DarkCookie: not by default.  ou can easily install it though.
[06:30] <dfwlinuxguy> \lart have your run apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
[06:30] <DarkCookie> ok thx
[06:31] <inimesekene> how can i restore grub after winXP install apart from using the ubuntu install and not formatting etc?
[06:31] <jonafan> hehe, that's a tricky one inimesekene
[06:31] <dfwlinuxguy> darkcookie install build-essential
[06:31] <\lart> dfwlinuxguy: thanks for the helpful hit, but that doesn't change the problem.  0 upgraded.
[06:31] <itrebal> how can I install mp3encode in Edgy Eft?
[06:31] <we2by> damn
[06:31] <inimesekene> because i don't have that disc anymore i think and am booted into another livecd
[06:31] <we2by> gedit is slow when working over ftp/ssh :(
[06:32] <jonafan> inime, is XP the first partition on your disk?
[06:32] <mszzz> itrebal: use Synaptic
[06:32] <Imrahil> we2by: how do you even do that in gnome?
[06:32] <aleka> I was looking for a custom script to call on x11vnc and also pass arguments like font files and ports to use and passwd file... someone had helped me with it before...
[06:32] <dfwlinuxguy> \lart probably the easiest thing to do would be to start synaptic and choose fix broken packages from the menu
[06:32] <jonafan> it must be, or it will throw a fit
[06:33] <jrib> ArCHoNKoG: ok, seems fine to just create it with touch.  Do this command: sudo touch /var/lib/dpkg/lock
[06:33] <\lart> dfwlinuxguy: no synaptic installed, no X for that matter - dapper SERVER.
[06:33] <inimesekene> jonafan yes
[06:33] <jonafan> ubuto, tell iminesekene about grub
[06:33] <jonafan> (I hope?)

[06:34] <jonafan> this bot is too hardddddd

[06:39] <rickest> Are all the plf repositories down?

[06:47] <rysiek|pl> Jussi01: easy to check - apt-cache seatch lineak - but yes, it is
[06:47] <Jussi01> thanks!!
[06:48] <rysiek|pl> DarkCookie: xserver is preinstalled, but the header files are not
[06:48] <rysiek|pl> Jussi01: apt-cache search lineakd - that will give you the list off all lineak-related packages

[06:56] <Ronre> hola usuario
[06:56] <cyberjunkie> i thought the bot was supposed to reply!
[06:56] <Catshrimp> dabaR_: yep, enabled the backports, but still no results upon "sudo aptitude update && aptitude search netbeans"
[06:57] <dabaR_> Catshrimp: no, not enable backports, enable multiverse.

[06:57] <Zaggynl> dabaR_, ..what?
[06:57] <cyberjunkie> tnx dabaR_ :>
[06:57] <cyberjunkie> will do
[06:57] <dabaR_> Zaggynl: read your message from ubotu
[06:57] <Catshrimp> dabaR_: Ah, i'll read up on the repositories I guess.  I thought the backports were 'multiverse' since they say multiverse
[06:58] <Zaggynl> dabaR_, sorry I didn't get a query from ubotu
[06:58] <cyberjunkie> kde doesnt come perinstalled with ubuntu?
[06:58] <cyberjunkie> *pre
[06:58] <mszzz> kde comes with kubuntu
[06:58] <mnoir> cyberjunkie: that is what kubuntu is for
[06:58] <cyberjunkie> ah :(

[06:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about X window System - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[06:59] <Zaggynl> thanks
[06:59] <cyberjunkie> okie.. but i hope there shouldnt be any probs installing kde for ubuntu
[06:59] <eloquence_> ubuntu = gnome
[06:59] <eloquence_> kubuntu = kde
[06:59] <rysiek|pl> DarkCookie: man, what are you searching for?
[06:59] <eloquence_> thats it
[06:59] <eloquence_> why install kde for ubuntu when u can just install kubuntu?
[07:00] <hjmills> eloquence_: if u want both or if u already have ubuntu with all ure stuff on and want to use kde without starting again
[07:00] <Zaggynl> okay, so the latest VLC isn't thought of as stable yet

[07:00] <mnoir> eloquence_: (just a theory) that would be a complete reinstall
[07:00] <cyberjunkie> exactly hjmills
[07:00] <cyberjunkie> that too ;P
[07:01] <cyberjunkie> putting linux on after a long time :P 5ysr to be precise
[07:01] <dabaR_> Zaggynl: you read that?
[07:01] <eloquence_> well hjmills i know how u feel but it seems a lot of things in ubuntu and kubuntu cause u to reinstall
[07:01] <avis> eloqence you can have gnome, xfce, kde, and more install through the ubuntu repositories
[07:01] <eloquence_> i tried configging my wireless though it worked OOTB ...
[07:01] <eloquence_> i wante to assign a real driver to it and it got screwed...
[07:01] <eloquence_> now i am screwed and need to reinstall
[07:01] <Zaggynl> dabaR_, I skimmed through it, I guess it goes through testing first
[07:01] <avis> you can have it all :o
[07:02] <vanberge> anybody know if i can migrate thunderbird settings from windows over to ubuntu?
[07:02] <vanberge> im moving to linux completely, but want to keep my email
[07:02] <avis> is your wireless card supported natively ?
[07:02] <eloquence_> its a 3945
[07:02] <eloquence_> it was working OOTB
[07:02] <avis> venberge you should have checked an option in your current email client to leave messages on server
[07:02] <eloquence_> but the ipw3945 driver needs ieee80211 subsystem installed
[07:03] <dabaR_> Zaggynl: no, the point is that once an Ubuntu is released, no new package versions are put in it. If Ubuntu 6.06 releases wityh vlc 1.1, and later vlc 1.7 comes out it can only show up in the backports repository, not as a replacement to the 1.1 released with 6.06.
[07:03] <chrisjw> I have the tahoma font in my fonts folder but amsn isn't recognising it, the other applications are
[07:03] <vanberge> avis, im more thinking about 5 years worth of email that currently exist in my thunderbird
[07:03] <chrisjw> anyone got any advice?
[07:03] <eloquence_> ubuntu tells me ieee80211 1.1.11 is installed but when i try to install ipw3945 it asks for ieee80211
[07:03] <Zaggynl> ahh okay
[07:03] <dabaR_> vanberge: is there a export option in the menu?
[07:03] <eloquence_> when i tried to install a new ieee80211... i got screwed... wiped away my original wireless connectivity and nobody seems to know how to fix it
[07:03] <avis> oh i see that may or may not be a problem perhaps you can burn a certain format in nero and transfer the data though i'd look for #mozilla to ask about that

[07:05] <pucko-> hello. I need some help configuring my wireless network card. how do I check if ubuntu recognized my card and are there any console tools to configuring it for me?

[07:11] <avis> talv i think you are searching for something referred to as VNC which would require a server on ubuntu and open ports i would google VNC edgy ubuntu
[07:11] <avis> also most people appreciate waiting 10 minutes between questions

It once worked fine - Whilst starting X, having the VGA connected with the cinch I got the display from login on tv. I have no clue why it suddenly stopped. Tried with my other box and it works fine. So I guess it is something driver / xorg.conf specific but i can't fi
[07:12] <ganjaklaus> gure what it is. Any help is much appreciated
[07:12] <talv> sorry i didnt realise, but basically in gnome u can just go to remote desktop and check it on or off
[07:12] <nothlit> avis, no KDE has a built in vnc server

[07:14] <Arcad3> hi folks whats new in Ubuntu World?
[07:14] <nothlit> caffiendo, just use gimp
[07:14] <dabaR_> Arcad3: fridge.ubuntu.com planet.ubuntu.com
[07:14] <Arcad3> :)
[07:14] <nothlit> caffiendo, or you can use imagemagic for the command line
[07:14] <avis> caffiendo, i tried that with gimp if you figure out how to crop then resize say 90x90 for ubuntuforums.org i'd love to know how
[07:14] <Arcad3> what shall i use for JAva And Flash desing?
[07:15] <Arcad3> what packages
[07:15] <Arcad3> ?
[07:15] <avis> though i dont know enough about gimp to get my ubuntuforums avator under 20k
[07:15] <cryptid> i am having problem with XGL video playback
[07:15] <caffiendo> nothlit: I'm using gimp, but new to it. Use to Photoshop..
[07:15] <caffiendo> nothlit: I couldn't figure it out in gimp..
[07:15] <ganjaklaus> cryptid: maybe your system / vga is too slow
[07:15] <avis> there is an open source programming language i dont know much try apt-cache search flash
[07:15] <nothlit> Arcad3, lol i'm not sure there is an opensource flash designer
[07:16] <avis> first do an update though apt-get update
[07:16] <avis> i believe there is one.
[07:16] <Arcad3> Java?
[07:16] <astroman> i anyone knows where i can find few command like WC, Diff, Uniq, Cut, Head, Tail that are program in awk ???
[07:16] <avis> java is in the repos

[07:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gnash - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:16] <nothlit> caffiendo, what you need to know is that the file/menu system on the gimp window only does things like open documents, you need to use the file menu on the image window
[07:16] <avis> apt-get install that
[07:16] <avis> on dapper you also have to activate it
[07:16] <avis> not on edgy

[07:18] <avis> for businesses
[07:18] <nothlit> eloquence_, ubuntu lts is supported for 3 years instead of 1 1/2 onthe desktop
[07:18] <ganjaklaus> eloquence_ LTS means long term support
[07:18] <nothlit> eloquence_, and lts supports the server for 5 years
[07:18] <Pie-rat1> avis: where might i find a laptop guru?
[07:18] <avis> wbpb_ubuntu, #ubuntu-es

[07:19] <Eddie> i need download a copy of the <IP_ADDRESS> kernel source can i do this via apt-get?
[07:19] <dabaR_> eloquence_: go read the link
[07:19] <eloquence_> what is the functionality difference?
[07:19] <nothlit> Arcad3, for programming java you might look at eclipse
[07:19] <nothlit> eloquence_, ubuntu lts is supported for 3 years instead of 1 1/2 onthe desktop
[07:19] <avis> eddie use synaptic
[07:19] <nothlit> eloquence_, and lts supports the server for 5 years
[07:19] <Eddie> ok i will give it a try
[07:20] <Tomcat_> eloquence_: The functionality difference is that all apps are on a different version.
[07:20] <ToHellWithGA> Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty/universe/source/Sources.bz2  MD5Sum mismatch
[07:20] <avis> eloquence_, it means the time that it will be supported with updates and support team and develop is a certain duration of time
[07:20] <ToHellWithGA> does that mean it's out of sync?
[07:20] <nothlit> avis, ubuntu is using 2.6.17
[07:20] <Tomcat_> eloquence_: If you want new things and expect buggy apps, get regular Ubuntu (current is edgy 6.10), if you want absolute stability, get LTS.
[07:20] <dabaR_> ToHellWithGA: #ubuntu+1
[07:20] <avis> yes that is right i forgot i dont keep up i just stay updated.
[07:20] <dabaR_> ToHellWithGA: if you are using feisty, if you got that there by mistake, remove the whole line
[07:21] <ToHellWithGA> dabaR_: it's an apt-get question.  it's not a version specific thing
[07:21] <nothlit> If you want stability, get LTS, if you want absolute stability, get debian stable

[07:21] <ganjaklaus> Anybody on my TV issue?
[07:21] <ToHellWithGA> it's happened before in dapper and edgy and usually resolved itself.  today i'd like to better understand why sometimes there are MD5Sum mismatches
[07:21] <dabaR_> ToHellWithGA: did you ask there? They may know what the case is, since they all use that particular version...
[07:21] <eloquence_> lol
[07:21] <cryptid> ganjaklaus: no i have a nvidia 6600 256mb card with the drivers installed
[07:21] <avis> ToHellWithGA, it means that its checking the file against some hash and its not giving you the correct hash in response for parity reasons ?  i can't explain
[07:21] <Pie-rat1> avis: the speaker isn't the problem, the drivers are
[07:22] <eloquence_> what do ya'll run? LTS or regular?
[07:22] <avis> Pie-rat1, you didn't say that.  give ubuntuforums.org a try.
[07:22] <ganjaklaus> cryptid: what kind of video problems do you have? you got to me more specific
[07:22] <Tomcat_> eloquence_: Regular & ubuntu+1
[07:22] <eloquence_> also, how come there arn't specific releases for dual core as their are for 64bt?
[07:22] <ToHellWithGA> thanks avis.  i'll ask why in #ubuntu+1 for fun
[07:22] <reverseblade> Does nosmp boot option affects the performance severely in general desktop usage cases ?
[07:23] <nothlit> eloquence_, if you need to ask, I recommened you run LTS unless you have some hardware issue fixed in 6.10 (edgy)
[07:23] <Tomcat_> eloquence_: Dual core works by default, amd64 is a different system.
[07:23] <avis> eloquence_, any distro can do dual core with smp kernel
[07:23] <MsgToThePpl> hi, i've a typhoon webcam (0c45:612c) is possible to make it work ?
[07:23] <avis> one of them might happen to be distro specific
[07:23] <cryptid> ganjaklaus: well the movies and DVD that are played lagg alot but he 3d cube fade in and out and all those eye candy works perfectly
[07:23] <nothlit> eloquence_, most of the people giving help in the channel probably run 6.10 or even 6.10 and 7.04
[07:23] <eloquence_> ok ...
[07:23] <eloquence_> I think I will make th emove to edgy then
[07:23] <Arcad3> i run 6.06
[07:24] <eloquence_> i heard there was like so many issues with edgy and so much stuff not working OOTB
[07:24] <Arcad3> is the most  stable and the best Ubuntu ever
[07:24] <Tomcat_> eloquence_: I find edgy buggy, so be prepared. :)
[07:24] <avis> works fine with me
[07:24] <eloquence_> but i also heard ipw3945 works OOTB and a lot of hardware is supported now ...
[07:24] <eloquence_> ?

[07:25] <avis> not much difference in the install its pretty much a piece of cake using the alternate 6.10 cd
[07:25] <eloquence_> there is an older one that is pre-installed the 1.0.6 but ipw3945 needs 1.1.0+

[07:25] <eloquence_> it screwed me up so bad that now i have no wireless :-(

[07:26] <Lattyware> I find gFTP quite buggy actually.

[07:26] <Lattyware> atapi?
[07:26] <avis> yes dvd/cd-rom
[07:26] <DarkCookie> i tried installing gftp and it says i need like glib 2.0 or something
[07:26] <Lattyware> ah
[07:26] <Lattyware> give me a second
[07:27] <pike_> rather use nautilus than gftp and i hate nautilus..
[07:27] <Arcad3> apt-get install gftp
[07:27] <avis> aptitude is nice to use sometimes when your unsure because it will install recommended packages.. ie aptitude install <package>

[07:29] <avis> ok
[07:29] <Lattyware> sorry, was a while back, I had to ring him :P
[07:29] <avis> then it might either be a bad burn or a bad md5 hash for that cd.
[07:30] <Nei1> in need help installing Ultra VNC , i have downloaded the .exe but dont know what to do from there...
[07:30] <Lattyware> Nope, I told him to check

[07:30] <mrlinux> i need help finding a ubuntu driver for a Lexmark t522  what extention should i look for
[07:30] <avis> if your on windows you can download a really lame windows accelerator and download it with 4 simulateneous connections.  it'll be quickest that way.  though most people will tell you to check the md5 of the cd first because it doesn't seem to have burned right
[07:31] <avis> caffiendo,  interested in how what is done ?
[07:31] <nothlit> avis, theres download accelerators for linux too
[07:31] <avis> oh yes
[07:31] <buzzy> !gparted
[07:31] <caffiendo> avis: yeah
[07:31] <ubotu> gparted is a GUI partitioning program, "apt-get install gparted", also available as a live cd http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[07:31] <avis> i have heard of prozilla
[07:31] <eloquence_> Tomcat_; what's buggy bout EGY (in general)?
[07:31] <avis> its very nice for console
[07:31] <Lattyware> avis: So yeah, the CD definatly boots on another machine.
[07:32] <caffiendo> avis: you said u needed it for ubunforums.org or something?
[07:32] <avis> eek sounds like faulty atapi device i would see if nero diganostics say anything
[07:32] <humbolt> does anybody know where VMWARE saves the bridged interface configs
[07:32] <Lattyware> OK...
[07:32] <buzzy> !rep
[07:32] <Lattyware> thanks
[07:32] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about rep - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:32] <avis> no i need to know how to crop and resize and then get the kb under 20kb for an avatar for ubuntuforums.org
[07:32] <buzzy> !repositories

[07:33] <Ronre> got a: spamd: could not create INET socket in <IP_ADDRESS>:783 Adress already in use...
[07:34] <avis> caffiendo, i'm not artistically inclined and have always been intimidated by graphics manipulating programs though at one stage in life i could do such things with gimp.  dont know what happened.  except for filesize that never was an issue :)
[07:34] <ganjaklaus> please help me with my tv problem. i'm really desperate with it.
[07:34] <warlocky> where's the ifconfig file stored (the network configuration) ?
[07:35] <lumaQQ> QUESTION ~  is there any software available to MAKE flash for websites in Ubuntu???
[07:35] <buzzy> !source
[07:35] <cyberjunkie> !fluxbox
[07:35] <buzzy> !sources
[07:35] <buzzy> !source-o-matic
[07:35] <rambo3> lumaQQ, flex
[07:35] <buzzy> !source o matic
[07:36] <avis> lumaQQ, there has to be.  i've had flash developers do work for me in linux
[07:36] <avis> and they didn't use wine
[07:36] <lumaQQ> ok
[07:36] <caffiendo> avis: On the image screen, goto the "image" menu on the top, drop down to "Scale Image" from there, just use the up and down arrows to adjust the size to the # pixels needed.  they stay proportionate
[07:36] <lumaQQ> so fluxbox?  and Flex?
[07:36] <psusi> flash is evil, don't use it
[07:36] <avis> ok
[07:36] <avis> i'm going to make a sticky note
[07:37] <benja> #concepcion
[07:37] <lumaQQ> And why is Flash evil? because you cant use it?
[07:37] <buzzy> !version
[07:37] <Ronre> ok nmap says spamassasin is running on the 783 port, but postfix says in mail.log: postfix/qmgr[20567] : warning: connect to transport spamassassin: Connection refused, do I forget to configure something?
[07:37] <benja> joined #conce
[07:37] <psusi> because it is proprietary and non accessibility friendly
[07:37] <buzzy> how can i know my version of ubuntu?
[07:37] <avis> caffiendo, what if the image needs to be cropped to exact proportions such as 90x90 also what if i can't get the filesize below 19k  ?
[07:38] <psusi> I was reading the other day that some web sites are now being sued for abusing flash under the americans with disabilities act...
[07:38] <psusi> maybe that will finally wake people up and get them to make their web sites bloody compatible
[07:38] <lumaQQ> psusi   america ~ the worlds worst country ...~~
[07:38] <avis> there is beta flash for edgy i believe its worked for me
[07:38] <avis> americans with disabilities act ?
[07:38] <avis> and flash ?
[07:39] <lumaQQ> and as for people not being able to use flash ~~~   thats just dull... i think ill sue the american shopping malls for making the esculators move too fast!
[07:39] <avis> making fun of people with disabilities using flash ?  :/  i dont see the connection
[07:39] <caffiendo> Avis: you can set them to 90x90 there.  File size, when you save, adjust the quality from default 85% to something lower maybe 65%
[07:39] <snype> anyone have a good tutorial for tweaking (x)ubuntu on a laptop
[07:39] <cbx33> lumaQQ, it's a valid point though
[07:39] <avis> ok
[07:39] <psusi> try explaining to a blind person... or someone with a text only browser... or someone on an embeded device, or under linux why they can't use your web site because you built it all out of flash
[07:39] <cbx33> and inded has been won before
[07:39] <avis> thank you caffiendo
[07:39] <lumaQQ> Avis ~~  Americans  some of them are so retarded its a wonde that they dont forget to brethe.
[07:39] <backtick> hi all.. how do i set network interface parameters in /etc/network/interfaces? i wanna set media=1 for eth0
[07:39] <cbx33> Sydney Olympics.....sued for not putting alt tags on the ir images
[07:39] <lumaQQ> cbx~~  jesus  save me from your PCness...
[07:40] <caffiendo> avis: sure
[07:40] <lumaQQ> its making me sick  ~~ and on that  im off ~~~
[07:40] <lumaQQ> see ya
[07:40] <cbx33> my word
[07:40] <avis> lumaQQ, you must live in a 3rd world country and this is not the place for such discussions
[07:40] <psusi> there is a reason we have w3c standards... use them.
[07:40] <cbx33> *bah* gone now....what's the point
[07:40] <cbx33> there's another flash user and abuser ;)
[07:41] <psusi> same retards that abuse flash are the ones that force text color to black assuming that my default background color scheme is white... so it doesn't work too well when I use a white on black color scheme
[07:41] <avis> good point
[07:42] <mike-e> hey, for the file management tool in gnome (nautilus i think it is?) can you make it so it doesn't open a new window every time you open a directory?
[07:42] <hjmills> mike-e: sure
[07:42] <mike-e> orly?
[07:42] <mike-e> where
[07:42] <cbx33> psusi, heheh calm down my friend
[07:42] <hjmills> mike-e: open preferences and find the browsere
[07:42] <cbx33> I feel your pain ;)
[07:42] <mike-e> ok cool
[07:42] <mike-e> thanks
[07:42] <hjmills> mike-e: browser window thing
[07:42] <regeya> I used to know a feller named orly
[07:43] <cbx33> a feller as in a lumberjack
[07:43] <cbx33> or a fella ?
[07:43] <cbx33> :p
[07:43] <Nei1> can any one help me install ultra VNC ??
[07:43] <regeya> feller, as in, 'you fellers ain't from around here'
[07:43] <cbx33> that's you fellas
[07:43] <cbx33> :p
[07:43] <cbx33> hehehe
[07:43] <regeya> maybe to you.
[07:43] <nothlit> What? it opens a new window by default?
[07:43] <holotone> how do I create a new user from the shell?
[07:43] <cbx33> *bah* I'm out for a while....see ya'll later ;)
[07:44] <avis> they are only human too :)
[07:44] <nothlit> Nei1, ultravnc isn't available for linux, look into tightvnc and x11vnc
[07:44] <Ronre> buzzy: try uname -a
[07:44] <buzzy> ronaldo,  ok
[07:44] <buzzy> Ronre, ok

[07:45] <DarkCookie> ok im trying to install gftp, but it says that it cannot find glib, but i just installed it
[07:45] <DarkCookie> what do  i do?
[07:45] <arrenlex> nothlit: His name is Nei1, because he is l33t. Nei-one.
[07:45] <Nei1> ok I will look there, thanks.
[07:45] <avis> remove glib
[07:46] <avis> enable backports and if you feel safe enable universe and multiverse
[07:46] <avis> aptitude install gftp
[07:46] <avis> i'd try that
[07:46] <nothlit> arrenlex, i get lazy with tab completion, i get the name wrong
[07:46] <DarkCookie> ok
[07:47] <truz_`24> if someone reboots a box that was behaving very slowly, and it was because a process was pinned at 100%, is there a way to find out what that process was in any log?
[07:47] <avis> DarkCookie, or look for some entry in your sources.list that is blocking a repo
[07:47] <avis> yes
[07:47] <avis> gnome system manager
[07:47] <avis> or top in console
[07:47] <arrenlex> truz_`24: That someone should probably just press alt+sysrq+k to kill the processes running under them so they don't have to reboot. =P
[07:48] <avis> you can kill processes in top too
[07:48] <avis> its nice
[07:48] <nothlit> avis, he said in a log
[07:48] <truz_`24> its remote
[07:48] <arrenlex> avis: This is already after the reboot, I take it.
[07:48] <avis> oh nevermind
[07:48] <nothlit> htop > atop > top
[07:48] <truz_`24> so after reboot there is no way?
[07:48] <truz_`24> i wish there was a history showing :-)
[07:48] <truz_`24> a top log :-)
[07:48] <avis> top is not a service
[07:49] <Thialfihar> What-ho, chappies!
[07:49] <Nei1> (12:44:57 PM) arrenlex: nothlit: His name is Nei1, because he is l33t. Nei-one.
[07:49] <truz_`24> well, i could create a cron that executes ps aux
[07:49] <Nei1> if this was true i wouldnt be here.....lol
[07:49] <truz_`24> but that'd be hard to analyze
[07:49] <avis> it would be easy with command line though i'm not adept enough to do it myself
[07:50] <holotone> Could somebody tell me how to create a new user via CLI and give them permission to a folder inside another user's home directory?
[07:50] <Thialfihar> I just changed my xorg.conf to have two screens (both connected to the same graphic card) and that works now, got my usual Gnome/Beryl stuff here, but the second monitor is black. I can move the cursor in there to get the default little cross cursor, but no desktop stuff.
[07:50] <Thialfihar> How do I fix that?
[07:51] <buz> those edgy kernel updates of today, they wont boot
[07:51] <buz> thank good i still had dappers kernel around

[07:51] <warlocky> where's the ifconfig file stored (the network configuration) ?

[07:53] <Shizofren> why don't work?
[07:53] <johns^> Thialfihar: nvidia card? I've got a working config here: http://docs.yavin4.nl/?content=dualhead
[07:53] <crashzor> lumaQQ, sudo ?
[07:53] <ianp> anyone use dual head on a thinkpad? :)
[07:54] <ianp> intel driver
[07:54] <lumaQQ> crashzoe  yeah  but i cant do that  when i logg in as sudo it says... sudo [-HPSb]  [-p prompt]  [-u username|#uid]

[07:54] <Thialfihar> Aye, johns^. I got TwinView working, but I don't fancy it. Now I set it up to really have two screens, but only the first gets a decent xsession.
[07:54] <avis> though you could not log top since its display is static
[07:54] <avis> full screen
[07:55] <M0E^lnx> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages is a dead link
[07:55] <linda777> I've installed Ubuntu, and only have one user account. However, when I go into the system-->manage users utility, it does not ask me for my password.
[07:55] <jokoon> Hello : is there a known fix to enable keyboard shortcuts in VLC ? Some set in the preferences doesn't work ...
[07:55] <johns^> Thialfihar:The second screen as an extention of the first?
[07:55] <johns^> not 2 times the same?
[07:55] <ubun> how come my sound is so low in ubuntu? i have the system sound max'd and amarok's sound max'd and my speakers volume control maxed, and it's at like 1/5th the volume it should be
[07:55] <crashzor> lumaQQ, try sudo gedit the file you need to edit
[07:55] <lumaQQ> ok
[07:55] <Thialfihar> No, that'd be like in TwinView, right?
[07:55] <pike_> ubun: open a terminal and type "alsamixer" adjust the volume there maybe
[07:55] <crashzor> lumaQQ, WARING you can fuck up you're system this way
[07:56] <arrenlex> !language
[07:56] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[07:56] <crashzor> lumaQQ, so look out while using sudo ;)

[07:56] <lumaQQ> crashzor  i know  i just cant get into sudo mode.
[07:56] <ubun> pike that worked! :) thanks
[07:56] <crashzor> lumaQQ, sudo su ( and you're root )
[07:56] <Thialfihar> Ohh, I think I found it. Apparently I must startx with an extra parameter to tell it there are two screens.
[07:57] <crashzor> lumaQQ, you're admin right ? :P
[07:57] <lumaQQ> ok
[07:57] <lumaQQ> ight
[07:57] <johns^> Thialfihar: the config on that webpage is ok for a cloned screen, or as an extention of the first
[07:57] <johns^> depends on de xinerama option
[07:57] <craigbass1976> Can someone help me get dansguardian running in dapper?
[07:57] <Thialfihar> Uses TwinView, tho.
[07:57] <linda777> According to the tutorial I'm going through, I should not have access to the user management utility without putting in my password.
[07:58] <Thialfihar> Means it's only one screen, only one desktop, like.
[07:58] <blackgecko> craigbass197: whats worng with your dans
[07:58] <kane77> somebody tell me my system is not broken... (I uninstalled some things and installed them back again... I know its no reason to think my system is broken, but I can't help myself , I'm paranodi... :D))
[07:58] <pike_> linda777: well it shouldnt let you create a new user or anything
[07:58] <snype> !con kolivas
[07:58] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about con kolivas - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:58] <johns^> Thialfihar: yeah, I used it that way
[07:58] <snype> has anyone used con kolivas patches w/ ubuntu?
[07:58] <linda777> But I can. I can do anything root could do.
[07:58] <craigbass1976> I get something about clamav being outdated.   But I decided it is not very useful for my setup here. :/
[07:59] <jokoon> Strange, I cycled my keyboard layout, and it reworked
[07:59] <linda777> So either I am misunderstanding about the ubuntu defaults, or I've set something up wrong.
[07:59] <jokoon> some little bug
[07:59] <snype> Thialfihar you talking to me?
[07:59] <Pie-rat1> mmm, its probably best if i install windows on my laptop, at least until linux support for it gets a little better. :( pity really, i love ubuntu, works great on all my desktop machines. ATI needs to die in a fire (but if they could make drivers for linux before they do, that'd be great)
[07:59] <blackgecko> craigbass197: well maybe you compilede with support for clamav
[07:59] <mseney> what is the difference between using linux-image-generic and linux-686?
[07:59] <Thialfihar> Coz one monitor is a pretty old one and the main one is very new... both together in TwinView look silly and also don't enhance working on them.
[08:00] <Thialfihar> Thanks for the url, tho.
[08:00] <johns^> it's all in dutch
[08:00] <M0E_lnx> !dvd
[08:00] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[08:00] <craigbass1976> I didn't compile anything, jsut apt-get installed it.  Maybe I should have installed squid too.
[08:00] <kane77> if you run firefox from command line are you getting errors about libpangohack.so???
[08:00] <Thialfihar> Oh, TwinView was also insisting to use my old analog one as the main one for the Gnome panels and such.
[08:00] <Thialfihar> Very annoying.
[08:01] <Pie-rat1> linda777: if you have entered your password for administrative tasks in the last couple minutes, you won't be prompted again
[08:01] <linda777> I thought that might be it, but I completely rebooted, and it only asked me once, when I logged on to the machine.
[08:01] <johns^> Thialfihar: that depends on the conifg
[08:01] <blackgecko> anyone knows why when i try to compile zaptel it cannot find stdio.h ????
[08:01] <Pie-rat1> linda777: that's very strange
[08:02] <linda777> I think so, too. :)
[08:02] <pike_> linda777: been messing with the suoders file?
[08:02] <Thialfihar> Don't think it does. I worked through the entire NVidia reference for TwinView options.
[08:02] <nder> hi I've installed a script for speedtouch330 but when I reboot and put the command: sudo pppd...it says command not found
[08:02] <kane77> somebody please tell me my system is not broken..
[08:02] <linda777> Not intentionally, but I have been futzing around with permissions and groups.
[08:02] <Thialfihar> Also changed the order of monitors here and there. Always picked the CRT as main one.
[08:02] <linda777> So it's entirely possible I hosed something.
[08:03] <Thialfihar> But really moot point by now... I need two separate screens. TwinView won't do it for me.

[08:04] <avis> if during the same session you have entered a sudo password it will allow you to go back to root without one
[08:04] <Thialfihar> In which script is "startx" called?
[08:04] <Thialfihar> I can't find it.
[08:04] <avis> updatedb ; locate pppd

[08:07] <pike_> cardanto1: if you have webcam working you could just use vlc to stream it right?
[08:07] <linda777> Where is the sudoers file?

[08:08] <linda777> I want to just look at it.
[08:08] <LjL> linda777: then visudo
[08:08] <LjL> linda777: or you could just cat /etc/sudoers
[08:09] <LjL> linda777: but anyway if you need to give users root access, don't edit sudoers - just add the user to the "admin" group
[08:09] <cardanto1> pike_ -- what is vlc?
[08:09] <rowdy_rac> hi all
[08:09] <linda777> Now, this is a really stupid question -- but should I even be showing root as a user in my user management utility?
[08:09] <Zaggynl> How is edgy vs dapper? is upgrading from dapper -> edgy a good idea?
[08:09] <m12> The CD I have is Dapper.  If I update, does that mean I now have Edgy?
[08:09] <rowdy_rac> how do i find my public ip from behind a router using shell script
[08:09] <pike_> cardanto1: video lan client it has its own codecs and works on xp and linux etc. gui app
[08:10] <rowdy_rac> or perl
[08:10] <cardanto1> and i have a video streamer driver on my windows box  -- don't konw if my webcam will work in ubuntu
[08:10] <linda777> It was my understanding that ubuntu doesn't have the root account enabled.
[08:10] <cardanto1> pike -- install options?
[08:10] <pike_> cardanto1: can play movies stream them or capture or stream captures.   you can apt-get it
[08:10] <Zaggynl> linda777, it's enabled, but you have to set the password
[08:10] <digilink> sudo passwd root will set it
[08:11] <btmgKarl> Hi my friends. I have the following problem with my radeon 9600 pro vivo: Got it connected with cinch to my tv and I don't get the display cloned anymore to it. It once worked fine - Whilst starting X, having the VGA connected with the cinch I got the display from login on tv. I have no clue why it suddenly stopped. Tried with my other box and it works fine. So I guess it is something driver / xorg.conf specific but i can't figu
[08:11] <btmgKarl> re what it is. Any help is much appreciated
[08:11] <Zaggynl> yeah
[08:11] <linda777> If I set a blank password will it go back to the "out of the box" configuration?
[08:11] <linda777> Meaning, no one can log in as root, all root-level stuff done via sudo?
[08:11] <cardanto1> pike_: sudo apt-get vlc ?
[08:12] <pike_> cardanto1: yeah its in the universe repository as long as you have that enabled
[08:12] <cardanto1> got it
[08:13] <pike_> cardanto1: the video lan client website has alot of howtos. its all gui unless you want to use cli
[08:13] <cardanto1> what about drivers for my webcam (it's actually a dv cam -- with a web feature)
[08:13] <sedsmang> hey can anyone tell me why ubuntu 6.06 is not reading the actual freespace on my flash and sd card?
[08:13] <hume> anyone can recommend me a tool to create forms etc for interacting with a mysql database (preferably html-based)
[08:13] <cardanto1> cli?
[08:13] <cardanto1> command line interface . . .?
[08:13] <rowdy_rac> how do i find my public ip from behind a router using shell script or perl..any ideas
[08:13] <`4aFkA`> useradd: unable to lock password file  help!!!
[08:13] <pike_> cardanto1: i dont know alot about webcam drivers. once the cam is working though vlc should make streaming very easy
[08:13] <wewt> rowdy_rac: <IP_ADDRESS> thats yours
[08:14] <jokoon> Hello
[08:14] <jokoon> Is there a way to clean the wallpaper list ?
[08:15] <rowdy_rac> wewt: thanks...i am trying to get the ip address thru a script
[08:15] <linda777> And now the user manager won't let me set the root password.
[08:15] <rowdy_rac> i can use the browser to go to whatsmyip.org
[08:15] <wewt> you can always use www.whatsmyip.com or www.ipchicken.com
[08:15] <wewt> yeah
[08:15] <`4aFkA`> useradd: unable to lock password file  help!!!
[08:15] <rowdy_rac> but is there a way to do it thru a script
[08:15] <wewt> through cmd prompt?
[08:15] <rowdy_rac> yes
[08:16] <mats> `4aFkA`: you ain't sudo, just user
[08:16] <linda777> It let me set it, but only by hand, not by using "generate password."
[08:16] <wewt> netstat
[08:16] <wewt> netstat works lol
[08:16] <fbc> is there any hotkey combination like CTRL-ALT-ESC in Windows, that would bring up a task manager in Ubuntu? To like lower priority on certain tasks?

[08:17] <cyberjunkie> whee~ 1152x864~ ;p
[08:17] <rowdy_rac> it doesnt seem to print my ip

[08:17] <buzzy> hello
[08:17] <fbc> buzzy:  hi
[08:17] <MikeMcA> is there a page that lists scheduled port releases for ubuntu?  For example for security upgrades?  Dapper currently has php4:4.2 and I'd like to know if 4:4.4 is coming any time soon.  Thanks!
[08:17] <emarts> hello world!
[08:17] <cgrenier> does anyone know if the Nvidia driver kernel modules for the latest kernel are on any repository?
[08:18] <jokoon> fbc the files are in a NTFS partition
[08:18] <fbc> MikeMcA: if it existed which I think it does, it would be on wiki.ubuntu.com
[08:18] <MikeMcA> fbc: thx
[08:18] <fbc> is there any hotkey combination like CTRL-ALT-ESC in Windows, that would bring up a task manager in Ubuntu? To like lower priority on certain tasks?
[08:19] <buzzy> guys please help me: i open gparted but it shows me /dev/hda1 witha "!" ==> it says that gparted can't read filesystem (it is windows 2000 filessyetm) how can i resize that partition? please answer me whatever you know!! :D
[08:19] <cgrenier> Amaranth: do you know if anyone has the nvidia kernel modules for the latest kernel?
[08:19] <cyberjunkie> during the install it asked me whether i'd like to mount other hdd partitions onto linux. i thought it would use them to install stuff on them :P so i disabled those..
[08:19] <fbc> buzzy: does the installation not give you an option to resie durring instlalation?
[08:19] <cyberjunkie> any way to get them auto-mounted?
[08:19] <FlyingSquirrel32> How do I get my spell checker to check spanish in OO
[08:20] <pike_> buzzy: there is a gparted livecd you might try..
[08:20] <Roey> OMG what's with these ridiculous names
[08:20] <fbc> FlyingSquirrel32:  Just install the spanish dictionaries through synaptics..
[08:20] <Roey> I can see it now, Ubuntu X:  Crunchy Calamari
[08:20] <fbc> FlyingSquirrel32:  open synaptics, click search and type ES or spanish and click enter...
[08:20] <Roey> what's an Eft (a bird?)
[08:21] <pike_> er copywrite
[08:21] <fbc> Roey: yeah Ubuntu X.. that would be great if they could make it look that good.
[08:21] <FlyingSquirrel32> fbc: thanks
[08:21] <fbc> FlyingSquirrel32: np
[08:21] <fbc> is there any hotkey combination like CTRL-ALT-ESC in Windows, that would bring up a task manager in Ubuntu? To like lower priority on certain tasks?
[08:21] <buzzy> pike_, isn't it the same?
[08:22] <jokoon> erm
[08:22] <jokoon> removed one by one
[08:22] <inimesekene> now what's going on the ubuntu edgy cd doesn't send any picture to my monitor through DVI (using it right now on winXP)
[08:22] <inimesekene> ?
[08:22] <jokoon> wont do that again :/
[08:22] <navaburo> Whats the ubuntu equivalent of rc.d?
[08:22] <kane77> fbc, "ps -A" would write out processes... nice can lower the priority...
[08:23] <inimesekene> even the "safe graphics mode" has this
[08:23] <navaburo> for an install i am told to copy a file to /etc/rc.d/init.d/<program name>, what should i do instead?
[08:23] <mnoir> navaburo: /etc/init.d/ and the /etc/rcX.d directories
[08:23] <kane77> I have tons of errors when firefox starts (libpangohack.so)
[08:23] <mnoir> the files go in init.d
[08:23] <FlyingSquirrel32> fbc: MySpell is the key. Thanks.
[08:23] <mnoir> links in the others
[08:23] <kane77> I have tons of errors when firefox starts (libpangohack.so) is it seriou problem??
[08:24] <navaburo> mnoir, so one that says to go into rc.d should go in rc1.d?
[08:24] <ndar> hi when I try to connect appears: timeout waiting for pado packets; unable to complete ppoe discovery
[08:24] <mnoir> no - the # in the name is the runlevel
[08:24] <navaburo> but i need to put it somewhere right?
[08:25] <navaburo> or just straight into the /etc/init.d/ directory?
[08:25] <mnoir> it might help to know what you are installing and whether a package designed for bsd is going to fly right in linux
[08:27] <mnoir> the start/stop script should go in init.d
[08:27] <sonium> is there no oss kernel emulation in egdy?
[08:27] <ndar> hi when I try to connect appears: timeout waiting for pado packets; unable to complete ppoe discovery
[08:27] <mnoir> does it conform to standard start/stop/reload/etc logic?
[08:27] <sonium> I'm missing a /dev/snd/dsp
[08:28] <navaburo> mnoir: thanks, i didnt realize the update-rc.d magic!
[08:28] <mnoir> ?
[08:28] <benkong2> what command line can I use to install ubuntu in a partition and not have it wipeout my already grub-installed Suse?
[08:28] <mnoir> oic - i never used it - just hand linked when necessary :)
[08:29] <NapalmSMiles> i haveing  a problem with xgl,im trying to setup ddesktop
[08:29] <FlyingSquirrel32> fbc: Ok, now I can't figure out how to apply this in OO
[08:29] <mnoir> I been using sys-v style init so long, it seems like before electricity :)

[08:32] <ubotu> automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[08:32] <jokoon> I can't believe it. I have to reselect the wallpaper display style instead the thumbnail just won't show
[08:32] <jokoon> It really needs a fix

[08:32] <jokoon> Ah now it shows

[08:32] <fbc> FlyingSquirrel32:  When your correcting just pick the language from the box at the bottom...
[08:32] <dredhammer> vlc 0.8.6 out yet for ubuntu?
[08:32] <FlyingSquirrel32> Options>language settings> languages> and set default language and click the box on the bottom so it only does it for current doc
[08:33] <FlyingSquirrel32> fbc: Thanks again
[08:33] <fbc> FlyingSquirrel32:  NP.
[08:33] <NapalmSMiles> automatix is awsome if itll work,it installs everything you need to play media and all kinds of cool toys
[08:33] <fbc> is there any hotkey combination like CTRL-ALT-ESC in Windows, that would bring up a task manager in Ubuntu? To like lower priority on certain tasks?
[08:33] <gnomefreak> buz: look in /boot/grub/menu.lst and paste the one line that has either hda, sda or UUID
[08:33] <gnomefreak> buz: it will be the one line of the new kernel
[08:33] <NapalmSMiles> i haveing  a problem with xgl,im trying to setup 3ddesktop can anyone help?
[08:34] <buz> mhh i'm confused
[08:34] <fbc> I've help four people but no one has bother to help answer my question.
[08:34] <fbc> is there any hotkey combination like CTRL-ALT-ESC in Windows, that would bring up a task manager in Ubuntu? To like lower priority on certain tasks?
[08:34] <NapalmSMiles> theres a prob with my graphics card,im pretty sure has aceleration
[08:34] <buz> all kernels have /dev/hda2 specified as root device which is correct
[08:34] <buz> the only kernel that still works is 2.6.15 left over from dapper upghrade
[08:34] <gnomefreak> buz: not always. change hda2 to sda2 save and try booting into the kernel
[08:35] <buz> even with an ata disk?
[08:35] <gnomefreak> buz: yes
[08:35] <buz> this should be documented i guess
[08:35] <buz> it will bite a LOT of people if the upgrade doesnt run smoothly for them either
[08:35] <fbc> gnomefreak: Is there any hotkey combination like CTRL-ALT-ESC in Windows, that would bring up a task manager in Ubuntu? To like lower priority on certain tasks?
[08:35] <buz> seems like a thoroughly vile thing to do for a security update
[08:36] <gnomefreak> fbc: not sure what ctrl+alt+escape does in windows
[08:36] <gnomefreak> buz: try it let me know if it works
[08:36] <JordiGH> Does Ubuntu have an official philosophical position on freedom? Or are they just "meh, we'll be free only as long as it's practical"?
[08:36] <buz> gnomefreak: lemme reboot
[08:36] <fbc> gnomefreak:  brings up the task manager where you can end tasks, and change priority on tasks..
[08:36] <buz> one way or another i'll come back ;)
[08:37] <navaburo> control shift escape brings up taskmon
[08:37] <NapalmSMiles> free and always will be i think
[08:37] <gnomefreak> fbc: system>prefferences>sessions
[08:37] <pike_> JordiGH: like debian but mellower :)
[08:37] <JordiGH> NapalmSMiles: It's not completely free. It includes binary blobs in its kernel.
[08:37] <ollekalle> question: how do I start my smbd every time my mashine boots?
[08:37] <JordiGH> pike_: Right, is there an official position statement somewhere on the blobs found in Ubuntu?
[08:37] <fbc> gnomefreak: kind like the SYSTEM MONITOR.
[08:37] <NapalmSMiles> so none can help me set up 3d rendering?
[08:37] <NapalmSMiles> noone*

[08:38] <ianp> I just want my OS to work...
[08:38] <fbc> gnomefreak: Sometimes a run a graphic app that ties up my entire CPU, and I need to find a way to close it after it stops responding...
[08:38] <JordiGH> ianp: Is that a no, then? Ubuntu doesn't have a position statement? I can't find one.
[08:38] <gnomefreak> fbc: install htop or use ps auz or top in tereminel
[08:38] <pike_> JordiGH: not sure maybe we should kidnap mark and force him to write one..
[08:39] <fuoco> i would like to install a newer mesa version, i see debs available in feisty and/or debian - how can i manually backport them to my edgy system ?
[08:39] <gnomefreak> ps aux*
[08:39] <navaburo> NapalmSMiles: you shouln;t have all too much trouble with that card
[08:39] <navaburo> its not an ATI ;)

[08:40] <weswh-> is it possible to set up an ssh server off of the livecd? given you have to install it after you install the system, i imagine not. trying to figure out a way to access the hd in the machine from my laptop, without having to install the system first.
[08:41] <navaburo> NapalmSMiles: i cant help you, i am clueless in that dept. Have you tried the manufacturer? sometimes they are helpful
[08:41] <ollekalle> cafeugo_: thanks!
[08:41] <NapalmSMiles> yes apt-get install ssh-server
[08:41] <michiel_> Hello everybody
[08:41] <kane77> how can I get my own pgp key?
[08:41] <NapalmSMiles> lol ill try
[08:41] <navaburo> hello michiel_
[08:41] <cafuego_> weswh-: Just install ssh after booting the livecd
[08:41] <weswh-> NapalmSMiles: when you do apt-get with the livecd, does it look for the install files off of cd? and install it to ram or something?
[08:41] <cafuego_> weswh-: you'll just need to do it each time you boot that cd
[08:41] <michiel_> I have a question which I hope you can answer. I just set up Ubuntu on an older computer and I'd like to primarily use text-mode programs.
[08:41] <michiel_> So is there some way I can make it not boot GDM?
[08:41] <robdeman> ok I have had this problem before... my post-commit under Linux does not do the svn update but when I run the ./post-commit by hand.. it works..
[08:42] <michiel_> So that I can just log in using text mode only.
[08:42] <NapalmSMiles> it also hits up the repos if you have an internet connection
[08:42] <pike_> michiel_: sudo update-rc.d -f scriptname remove
[08:42] <cafuego_> michiel_: 'sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove' will make gdm not start at bootup
[08:42] <navaburo> michiel_: which version of ubuntu
[08:42] <erUSUL> michiel_: install server version it just do that... (or install debian btw)
[08:42] <NapalmSMiles> which you should have if you plan on running ssh
[08:42] <navaburo> ok, that will work
[08:42] <michiel_> Thanks. It's the latest version, by the way.
[08:42] <weswh-> napalm - not really, local network
[08:43] <navaburo> michiel_: also, take a look at Xubuntu, it's light-weight and made for older PCs
[08:43] <navaburo> or the fluxbox window manager
[08:43] <michiel_> Seems that it removed GDM from all system startup links.
[08:43] <cafuego_> michiel_: yup
[08:44] <michiel_> navaburo: I'll check them out. GNOME does run reasonably smoothly on the machine, it's a 400 MHz laptop with 192 MB RAM, but I love the speed at which the text-only mode operates on it. I mostly need it for text-mode applications, anyway.
[08:44] <michiel_> Thanks for your help :)
[08:44] <ubun> how come when i try to launch a python script from a menu that i added with 'alacarte' it doesnt work? it tried making the script executable and i put a #!/usr/bin/env python line in it, and i even tried running it with 'python /foo/bar/bla.py' and nothing launches it
[08:44] <M0E^lnx> automatix doesn't work in edgy
[08:44] <michiel_> Do you also know how to restart the computer from the terminal?
[08:44] <navaburo> sudo halt
[08:44] <ubun> shutdown -r now
[08:44] <erUSUL> michiel_: shutdown
[08:44] <jrib> ubun: what does the script do?
[08:44] <navaburo> or sudo restart
[08:44] <cafuego_> michiel_: 'sudo reboot' (or 'sudo halt' to shut it down)
[08:44] <navaburo> or sudo poweroff
[08:44] <buz> editing grub doesnt help my kernel boot either, still begin waiting for roo then freezes
[08:45] <ubun> jrib it's a game writting in pygame. but it works fine when i run it manually from the shell
[08:45] <kasper1990> Hey guys
[08:45] <michiel_> Hmm, that's a lot of answers :P
[08:45] <mike1980> Hi guys is there a app so I can control ubuntu server remotely with a control panel. Something like a web based control panel like a tripod web host account?
[08:45] <navaburo> Which content managemtne system is most Ubuntu friendly? Joomla, Plone, Mombo, or some other?
[08:45] <jrib> ubun: can I download it and try myself?
[08:45] <cafuego_> michiel_: or control-alt-delete
[08:45] <ubun> jrib yeah one sec lemme get the link
[08:45] <weswh-> NapalmSMiles: it looks like the current versions just need apt-get install ssh, not ssh-server?
[08:45] <Imrahil> navaburo: plone
[08:45] <michiel_> Thanks for the help
[08:45] <mwe> Aren't you allowed to modify GPL software and use it like you want as long as the derived work is GPL as well?
[08:45] <navaburo> mike1980: you mean for a webserver>
[08:45] <cafuego_> navaburo: Try and pick one that is you-friendly instead :-)
[08:46] <mike1980> navaburo: yes
[08:46] <kasper1990> Hey does anyone here know how to print out files to a PDF file?
[08:46] <pike_> mike1980: you could xforward gnome-panel or something i guess
[08:46] <dfcarney> mwe: you can do whatever you like to it.  If you want to redistribute it, you have to license it under the GPL (and provide the original source code + modificaitons)
[08:46] <buz> gnomefreak: editing grub didnt help the least
[08:46] <michiel_> Oh, there's one last thing that I'd like to know... now that I've got a text-only machine, is there some way to get rid of the fancy new usplash?
[08:46] <navaburo> mike1980: thats what i am doing right now actualy... check out conetent management systems like joomla, or plone for the website

[08:47] <navaburo> mike1980: and try webadmin for administring the computer itself
[08:47] <mike1980> navaburo: ok cool thabnks
[08:47] <mike1980> navaburo: ok cool thanks
[08:47] <NapalmSMiles> weswh-: not sure,i just had a freind logging in the other day and we used ssh-server,but i was runnning a  5.10 live
[08:47] <navaburo> webadmin works REALY nice

[08:47] <fbc> navaburo: is there any hotkey combination like CTRL-ALT-ESC in Windows, that would bring up a task manager in Ubuntu? To like lower priority on certain tasks?
[08:47] <dfcarney> mwe: in other words, there's nothing that says a company cannot use GPLed code as part of a proprietary, internal system.
[08:47] <navaburo> on debian at least... ubuntu shoudnt care
[08:47] <gnomefreak> buz: not sure than that was a big bug in edgy
[08:47] <kasper1990> Dont you think that the possibilty to print as pdf instead of paper should be available by default?
[08:48] <buz> gnomefreak: are you using that kernel?
[08:48] <sladen> michiel_: remove 'splash' from the kernel command line at boot
[08:48] <gnomefreak> buz: im not using edgy atm
[08:48] <michiel_> Aha, so I'll edit grub for that
[08:48] <mwe> dfcarney: but you need to distribute the full original source code along with the modified code?
[08:48] <michiel_> Thanks
[08:48] <buz> possibly we dont hear about it because people cant boot anymore ;)
[08:49] <gnomefreak> buz: i will work on it tomorrow see if i cant reproduce it here. good place to start is to file a bug on that kernel
[08:49] <buz> well if i could figure out how to file one on the package
[08:49] <buz> the bugs link isnt active
[08:49] <ollekalle> question: Is it possible to run mpg-movies using mplayer from console or do I need to run KDE or similar?
[08:49] <gnomefreak> !bugs
[08:49] <ubotu> If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug report at: http://bugs.ubuntu.com/  -  Bugs in/wishes for the bots can be filed at http://launchpad.net/products/ubuntu-bots
[08:49] <dfcarney> mwe: if someone asks for the source code, you have to provide it.  If it's a derivative work, then just your complete version is all that's required (AFAIK)
[08:50] <dfcarney> mwe: see http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.txt
[08:50] <pike_> ollekalle: i use console mplayer for all my formats. both in linux and xp
[08:50] <drkm> when I have a move in a folder gnome does a type of screenshot as the icon.. when there is a lot of movies in a folder it doesn't do that.. is there anyway to enable it?
[08:50] <nathalia> alguem que tc?
[08:50] <jrib> pike_: I think he means without X, is that right ollekalle ?
[08:50] <navaburo> ollekalle: look up using mplayer or others in a framebuffer virtual terminal
[08:50] <jrib> !br | nathalia
[08:50] <ubotu> nathalia: Por favor use #ubuntu-br  ou #ubuntu-pt  para ajuda em portugus. Obrigada.
[08:51] <pike_> oh well yeah id be like mplayer -vo fbdev filename.mpg
[08:51] <ollekalle> pike_/jrib: I just want to verify that my nvidia gfx card works (and my mpeg-2 tv encoder)

[08:51] <nathalia> #ubuntu-pt
[08:51] <kendra> what is this
[08:51] <buz> gnomefreak: maybe its related to the broken update-initramfs at https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/initramfs-tools/+bug/75649
[08:51] <dfcarney> mwe: note: you have to clearly indicate which files you changed, however...  So, often, it's easier to just distribute a patch.
[08:51] <sharperguy> can anyone with beryl and the snow pluging send me snowflake2.png?
[08:51] <Catshrimp> It's my understanding that placing an & after a command keeps the command running.  Yet, when I specify "fbsetbg -f ~/.wallpapers/gnu_forest.jpg &" in .xsession, the command is run, the wallpapers displays for a split second, and then it dissappears again.
[08:51] <mwe> dfcarney: yeah. the license text is heavy reading though. you probably need to talk to a lawyer if you have any doubts
[08:52] <buz> it does seem to generate initramfs files though
[08:52] <mwe> dfcarney: yeah
[08:52] <nothlit> to play mplayer in the framebuffer, you should pass a higher console framebuffer resolution/color
[08:52] <dfcarney> mwe: I find that the GPL is light reading, compared to some of the licenses that Microsoft thinks up.
[08:52] <Amaranth> sharperguy: the snowflake2.png file installed to ~/.beryl/plugins/
[08:52] <nathalia> #brasilia
[08:52] <chable> anyone knows how to update firefox from 1.5 to 2.0
[08:53] <dfcarney> mwe: there's a FAQ on gnu.org that should answer all of your questions.
[08:53] <gnomefreak> buz: easiest way to find out is run update-initramfs -c -v -k `uname -r`
[08:53] <jrib> Catshrimp: something is probably changing your background afterwards.  You don't need to keep fbsetbg running afaik
[08:53] <Amaranth> !firefox
[08:53] <ubotu> firefox is the default web-browser on Ubuntu. To install the latest version, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxNewVersion Installing plugins: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxPlugins
[08:53] <mwe> dfcarney: right compared to that it is, but still the interpretation of it. I'll have a look at it
[08:53] <buz> i did a -u -k all
[08:53] <buz> that built something
[08:53] <chable> i have the 1.5
[08:53] <chable> but i want to update it to 2.0
[08:53] <jrib> chable: 2.0 is in edgy
[08:53] <crowley1027> i'm installing ubuntu 2.6?  and it freezes when i install but when i do a CD check it boots up ubuntu.  There's an icon "install" on the desktop and when i get to step 2 (timezone) it freezes.
[08:53] <crowley1027> i'm on it now.
[08:53] <gnomefreak> buz: not the same bug
[08:53] <Catshrimp> jrib: Hm, I'm not sure what would be changing the background back, but I'll check into it.  I'll be back in a few after I try a couple of things
[08:53] <chable> i dont use edgy
[08:54] <Amaranth> chable: ubotu just told you how
[08:54] <ubun> jrib: when i run the python script by putting it's path for the 'command' in alacart nothng happens at all, no warnings or anything pops up. yet if i run the command/path from the terminal it launches fine
[08:54] <buz> no it doesnt seem like it is
[08:54] <crowley1027> only that prograam freezes, but its not really freezed.  its strange
[08:54] <chable> i had some problems with it
[08:54] <dfcarney> mwe: here it is -- http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html   Also, if you're interested, GPLv3 is in the works.
[08:54] <chable> Amaranth thank you
[08:54] <buz> that peculiar one i encountered in other context
[08:54] <jrib> ubun: don't worry, I haven't forgotten :)
[08:54] <serishema> i'm having trouble setting up transperant proxying with squid
[08:54] <Amaranth> chable: want me to make him say it again?
[08:54] <gnomefreak> buz: just file one and i will look for dup when i have the bug report
[08:54] <mwe> dfcarney: yeah. thanks
[08:54] <buz> ok
[08:54] <chable> no i got it Amaranth
[08:54] <serishema> i get an error page saying that direct requests are denied
[08:54] <dfcarney> mwe: no problem
[08:54] <ollekalle> nothlit: "pass a higher cosole"?
[08:54] <lmosher> When I upgraded to edgy I lost (?) the wireless program that lets me specify which network I am on. I can specify my network manually, and still access my saved points... but there's no long a drop-down list of avaiable networks...
[08:55] <chable> anyone of u managed to install the latest nvidia drivers ?
[08:55] <serishema> but if i configure the proxy in the browser that works
[08:55] <gnomefreak> buz: just give me bug number after you file it will al info you can give
[08:55] <chable> from nvidia website
[08:55] <Amaranth> serishema: You should probably know transparent proxying breaks internet and web standards and some web sites will fail to work
[08:55] <Amaranth> chable: They won't help you on dapper
[08:55] <ubun> jrib i think it thinks i'm trying to run a 'directory'
[08:55] <chable> uhm
[08:55] <serishema> amaranth: this is an error page from squid itself
[08:55] <nothlit> ollekalle, yeah use a vga=xxx code in your grub configuration
[08:55] <serishema> amaranth: something to do with acls i think
[08:55] <chable> they destroyed my xserver on edgy
[08:55] <Amaranth> chable: If you're trying to use beryl/compiz with nvidia on dapper you should just upgrade to edgy
[08:56] <crowley1027> i'm installing ubuntu 2.6?  and it freezes when i install but when i do a CD check it boots up ubuntu.  There's an icon "install" on the desktop and when i get to step 2 (timezone) it freezes.  Its not frozen persay because i'm on ubuntu now and its fully functional except the window.  i click next and it just doesn't do anything.
[08:56] <chable> no , it dont want them
[08:56] <chable> but for a better resolution and so
[08:56] <ollekalle> nothlit: alright...
[08:56] <Amaranth> chable: If you don't want beryl or compiz you don't need the latest driver
[08:56] <chable> i wpuld like 75 hz on 1280
[08:56] <crowley1027> oh wait never mind...i didn't click next.
[08:56] <Angryelf> what packages do I need to install in order to create NTFS  file systems?
[08:56] <Amaranth> chable: Or does the one in dapper break X too?
[08:56] <pike_> ollekalle: for some reason i had to use the hex value like vga=0x317
[08:56] <chable> well
[08:56] <nothlit> !ntfs-3g | Angryelf
[08:56] <ubotu> Angryelf: ntfs-3g is is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. It has been extensively tested but is still BETA software, so use it with caution. Installation instructions at http://lunapark6.com/?p=1710 (Dapper) and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=217009/ (Edgy)
[08:56] <chable> i downloaded the latest nvidia drivers on dapper
[08:56] <chable> and i got the same errors like in edgy
[08:56] <nothlit> Angryelf, if you just wanted to create the filesystem, you can use gparted
[08:56] <gnomefreak> Angryelf: to create one just use gparted
[08:57] <serishema> !squid | serishema
[08:57] <Amaranth> serishema: I've never set squid up before, sorry. Just mentioning you probably don't want transparent proxying

[08:57] <serishema> amaranth: never had any problem with microsoft ISA server which was a transperant proxy
[08:57] <Turgon> Is it safe to run "sudo fsck" from a terminal window? There was an error (the word "fail" appeared in red) when I rebooted and an automatic check happened, but the system rebooted before I could read what was the failure about.
[08:57] <Catshrimp> jrib: actually, I think I might know what's going on, but don't know how I would correct it.  I have /usr/bin/fluxbox executing last to start the window manager (which would probably be resetting the background).
[08:57] <chable> well ?
[08:58] <Amaranth> serishema: You got lucky
[08:58] <pike_> ollekalle: /boot/grub/menu.lst
[08:58] <fyrestrtr> Turgon: no use running fsck on a mounted file system, try man tune2fs
[08:58] <chable> u know if i need to use some other mirrors in source.list ?

[08:58] <gnomefreak> ty buz
[08:58] <Turgon> oki, thx
[08:58] <jrib> Catshrimp: use   session.screen0.rootCommand:    fbsetbg -l   in your ~/.fluxbox/init
[08:58] <chable> those mirrors i use might be weak
[08:58] <Amaranth> serishema: It has nothing to do with microsoft getting something right or linux getting something wrong it has to do with what websites you go to
[08:58] <jrib> Catshrimp: -l just uses whatever was last
[08:58] <comster> I've got a standard Dapper install on vmware, but i no longer want it to start the X login menu, just go straight to console, how can I do this?

[08:59] <dxdemetriou> is there a problem on security repos on edgy? I have GPG error: http://security.ubuntu.com edgy-security Release: The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG 40976EAF437D05B5
[08:59] <serishema> amaranth: in this instance i just don't know how to set up the software properly
[08:59] <buz> now pray i'm the only affected ;)
[08:59] <jrib> ubun: I was trying to avoid installing it, did you just install the deb?
[08:59] <fyrestrtr> comster: remove xdm from the startup scripts?
[08:59] <norberto> de
[08:59] <fyrestrtr> comster: check man update-rc.d
[08:59] <chable> yes but its enabled deppending of my location
[08:59] <cafuego_> comster:  'sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove' will make gdm not start at bootup
[08:59] <buz> dxdemetriou: more likely a bad transfer with your file
[08:59] <chable> so they put the ubuntu mirrors in my country
[08:59] <comster> thanx
[08:59] <ubun> jrib no just the source and i didnt run the setup.py just runnin the actual program script 'jools'
[08:59] <chable> which lacks some skillz i guess
[08:59] <ubun> which is an executable python script
[08:59] <jrib> ubun: heh easy enough, ok
[09:00] <Doow> Is there any way to make gnomes Clock to start the week on monday instead of sunday? I don't see it in the options.
[09:00] <ubun> it runs if i type ./jools from it's pwd, but it doesnt work if i type it's full path on the terminal like '/foo/bar/jools'
[09:00] <ubun> it says it's a directory :/
[09:00] <Cool123> whoa
[09:00] <Cool123> This is a huge #
[09:00] <jrib> ubun: right, I was going to suggest, doing a cd into that directory and then executing jools
[09:00] <fyrestrtr> ubun: you need to type sh /foo/bar/jools
[09:00] <jrib> ubun: (in your launcher)
[09:01] <ubun> fyrestrtr: still says it when i type sh first
[09:01] <ubun> oh frmo the laucher, lemme try
[09:01] <jrib> cd foobar; python jools   maybe
[09:02] <lmosher> In Edgy how do I find/list any available wireless networks?
[09:02] <ubun> yeah still doesnt work when i do 'sh' before the path. lemme try cd ;

[09:03] <eMaX_> re
[09:03] <ubun> Details: Failed to execute child process "cd" (No such file or directory)
[09:03] <jrib> ubun: write a small shell script then
[09:03] <pike_> lmosher: you can do graphically but im not familiar with gnome tools
[09:03] <lmosher> pike_, Isn't there a GUI for that? I have all my locations saved from when I had Dapper, but in dapper I could pick the network from a list. Edgy I have to type the ESSID.
[09:03] <eMaX_> anyone here knows whether and how I can switch off temporarily the boot splash screen in ubuntu in order to see the boot messages? In SuSE it is something like just hitting Esc. Is there a way to do that in Ubuntu?
[09:03] <fyrestrtr> lmosher: just use NetworkManager :)
[09:04] <sladen> ubun: writing a '/bin/cd' is really quite hard.  I did once write one though... perhaps that's not what you intended
[09:04] <evolus> anyone knows hon can i install my wifi card belkin F5D7001 ?
[09:04] <pike_> lmosher: heard good things about wifi-radar if you want to install
[09:04] <fyrestrtr> eMaX_: edit the grub boot line and remove 'splash' and 'quiet' from it.

[09:11] <gnu> I have, I was talking about drivers, etc
[09:11] <gnomefreak> buz: you need to install each icon seperate or use system>admin>login screen to use the gdm
[09:12] <ubun> gnu maybe your video card's stuff
[09:12] <gnu> geforce
[09:12] <jrib> ubun: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36876/ is mine
[09:12] <gnu> how can I install drivers?

[09:14] <vlt> Hello. How can I find out what process is still using /dev/hdc? When I try to tell the kernel to re-read the partitom table but I get "BLKRRPART: Device or resource busy".
[09:14] <ubun> launches sh-3.1
[09:14] <ubun> maybe somethings wrong with x and i need to restart
[09:15] <El_Che> vlt: lsof |grep /dev/hdc
[09:15] <jrib> ubun: I mean whatever you have in the Exec line
[09:15] <ubun> jrib ah, no it doesnt work, says the old stuff of 'jools is a directory, can't continue'
[09:16] <jrib> ubun: paste your command here
[09:16] <mseney> can someone explain the ubuntu linux kernels to me, i used to be able to have a couple different ones listed in grub and can't seem to do that anymore
[09:16] <ubun> even though it's not a directory, it's a python script even 'file' says so
[09:17] <gnomefreak> brb got another 200 emails to go through today
[09:17] <ubun> sh -c "cd /home/mark/python/jools-0.20 ; python jools'
[09:17] <Stormx2> xD
[09:17] <Stormx2> gnomefreak, what they emailing you aboot?
[09:17] <Byan> how do I install the man files for the standard C functions?
[09:17] <jrib> ubun: change it to:   sh -c "cd /home/mark/python/jools-0.20/jools; python jools'
[09:17] <gnomefreak> Stormx2: work and ubuntu stuff
[09:17] <jrib> ubun: remember it's jools-0.20/jools/jools where the file is located
[09:18] <ubun> doh
[09:18] <jrib> ubun: also, you need to use the same kind of quotes, either both single or both double
[09:18] <jrib> Byan: manpages-dev
[09:18] <ubun> jrib it works now :) my bad thanks for all that

[09:19] <Arwen> gnome-nettool says I have a service on port 2208 - is that normal? what service?
[09:19] <jokoon> yes but stable
[09:19] <jrib> jokoon: 7

[09:21] <TheVault> I just installed Ubuntu for the first time and I really need some help
[09:21] <ubun> jrib ok, but i dont know much about flash9 ;0
[09:21] <TheVault> About updating & installing
[09:21] <jrib> TheVault: you're in the right place, just ask your questions
[09:21] <TheVault> Alright, when I update, it gives me download errors
[09:21] <jrib> ubotu: tell jokoon about flash9
[09:21] <jrib> sorry :)
[09:21] <ubun> hehe
[09:21] <TheVault> I don't know why either
[09:21] <jrib> TheVault: how are you updating?
[09:22] <The_Machine> is there an easy way to join a windows domain (2000) in ubuntu?  some util or something?
[09:22] <TheVault> The icon at the upper right, looks orange with a star it looks like
[09:22] <Shadowpillar_> ubotu: tell Shadowpillar_  about flash9

[09:22] <jrib> TheVault: ok, is that program open now?   (not the icon, the actual program)
[09:22] <NoonInSF> any suggestions or known problems?
[09:22] <TheVault> lemme open it
[09:23] <TheVault> Now its opened
[09:23] <jrib> TheVault: I was going to tell you to close it, if it was
[09:23] <jrib> hehe
[09:23] <TheVault> Well it was, now its opened
[09:23] <TheVault> Can we talk private
[09:23] <TheVault> so its easier to read :P
[09:23] <jrib> TheVault: join me in #ubuntu-classroom
[09:23] <TheVault> alright, 1 moment while I find that
[09:24] <kip\\sleep> hi i need some help
[09:24] <ubun> jrib there most definitly is a quirk with alacarte 0.8 where it wont let me save that last quotation mark unless i click on 'run in terminal' first, then i can uncheck it and it keeps it saved, very strange
[09:24] <jokoon> Kinda complicated, I'll try the beta available on the adobe site
[09:24] <MinceR> hi
[09:24] <jrib> TheVault: easy way, just type:  /join #ubuntu-classroom
[09:24] <MinceR> i'm starting to suspect that flash 9 makes opera unstable
[09:24] <TheVault> oh :P
[09:24] <ubun> jrib im tryin it for other programs and it's making me do that too
[09:24] <jrib> ubun: yeah, seems to have been fixed though
[09:24] <MinceR> any thoughts/experiences on the matter?
[09:24] <Amaranth> ubun: Oh, jeez, 0.8 is horrible
[09:24] <craigp84> all, whats the best way to proxy requests from 12 dapper boxes for APT downloads? I've been using a funky config with squid to make this work, are there any better ways?

[09:25] <kip\\sleep> until the desktop loads
[09:25] <unimatrix9> hi there
[09:25] <Amaranth> ubun: You can't upgrade alacarte without upgrading to edgy, it requires a newer GNOME
[09:26] <kip\\sleep> i see a garbaled screed
[09:26] <unimatrix9> is there an way to let vlc open /dev/hdb standard instead of dvd://?
[09:26] <kip\\sleep> !question im trying to use ubuntu in a virtual pc but the screen is messed up
[09:27] <{w00t}> did you clean the screen?
[09:27] <{w00t}> try spraying WIndex
[09:27] <{w00t}> it works
[09:27] <nolimitsoya> never apply windowcleaner toa monitor

[09:30] <mrlinux> i need help finding a ubuntu driver for a Lexmark t522
[09:30] <diskus> there's no such thing as ubuntu driver :P
[09:31] <NoonInSF> anyone help with with hibernate and sleep not working?
[09:31] <ollekalle> q: what is "the" package to install X?
[09:31] <pike_> mrlinux: www.linuxprinting.org
[09:31] <neruatix> ollekalle: xserver-xorg
[09:31] <mrlinux> i need help finding a driver for a Lexmark t522  that will work for ubuntu
[09:31] <mrlinux> pike_, i cant find it on there
[09:32] <neruatix> mrlinux: if you can return your printer and buy a hp or epson that might be a good idea
[09:32] <mrlinux> i cant
[09:32] <pike_> mrlinux: looks like youll just be using generic postscript driver
[09:32] <unimatrix9> mrlinux try an driver thats as close to your printer as possible and give it a try
[09:32] <veediot> redDEADresolve: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=164040&highlight=xbox+360+kernel+module
[09:33] <jdong> anyone experiencing broken 3D video drivers after today's kernel update?
[09:33] <mrlinux> Pike_,which one should i use
[09:33] <unimatrix9> so add printer and see what models there are..
[09:33] <jdong> I'm trying to get to the bottom of this one
[09:33] <gnomefreak> lol jdong ;)
[09:33] <mseney> is it possible to run a 686 kernel and not this generic one?
[09:33] <gnomefreak> jdong: you mean the 2.6.17-10.34 kernel?
[09:33] <jdong> gnomefreak: aye
[09:34] <jdong> gnomefreak: getting random reports here and there of nvidia failing
[09:34] <pike_> mrlinux: cant get to a cups screen but you should choose i think manufacurer generic then the plain normal recommended postscript
[09:34] <gnomefreak> mseney: no genreic == 686
[09:34] <jdong> mseney: no more generic
[09:34] <jdong> mseney: no more 686 I mean
[09:34] <jdong> mseney: generic replaces 686
[09:34] <mseney> im so confused on that
[09:34] <jamesbrose> whats the thing in vi to save but carry on working?
[09:35] <gnomefreak> jdong: i havent run into it yet but if i see one ill let you know. most likely l-r-m is gonna be the issue (unless ofcourse theres an easier answer without knowing the issue) ;)
[09:35] <mseney> like right now i have linux-headers-generic and linux-headers-686 installed
[09:35] <jdong> gnomefreak: found one person who can accurately reproduce it
[09:35] <jdong> gnomefreak: investigating it
[09:35] <gnomefreak> oh good
[09:35] <MinceR> jamesbrose: :w
[09:35] <veediot> jamesbrose: esc : w
[09:36] <mseney> jdong, why is there a linux-headers-686 ?
[09:36] <gnomefreak> jdong: let me know what you find. i have a pc ill be throwing edgy and nvidia on
[09:36] <jdong> mseney: it's an alias to generic
[09:36] <gnomefreak> mseney: you have that left over from an upgrade
[09:36] <jdong> mseney: all -686 in Edgy just points to generic
[09:36] <jdong> mseney: it's so that a smooth upgrade transition would result
[09:36] <MystaMax> Hello, how do i find out a users UID and GUID via the CLI???
[09:36] <unimatrix9> i have edgy and nvidia gforce
[09:36] <mseney> i never had anything 686 selected before so do i just remove them now?
[09:37] <lupine_85> cat /etc/passwd ?:) fields 2 & 3 respectively
[09:37] <gnomefreak> mseney: yes you can
[09:37] <MinceR> bytez

[09:43] <andresmujica> upss sorry
[09:43] <|markie|> is there a tool to adjust the resolution of your screen. i mean the refresh rate..... I think i must adjust my monitor, cant find that tool to do so
[09:44] <psusi> serishema: are the pages you are accessing non cachable?
[09:45] <Stormx2> |markie|: GNOME has one. System > Preferences > Screen Resolution
[09:45] <Stormx2> It includes a refresh rate dropdown list
[09:45] <kip\\sleep>  my screen is filled with vertical line

[09:49] <serishema> hello :-)
[09:49] <ubun> how can i make it so i can hit ctrl+insert to paste into gvim? right now it only lets me do it from edit->paste menu
[09:49] <Shiner421> I am SO new to ubuntu and linux hehe
[09:50] <dr_strangelove> i've got a nice 10" notebook here ... pentium 2 (celeron) 400 MHz, 64 MB RAM, 6 GB HD, .... I guess ubuntu is not the way to go. Any recommodations?
[09:50] <dxdemetriou> even from the live cd of edgy gives me error for gpg for edgy-security. no one have the same problem?
[09:50] <Shiner421> anyone know how I can get .wmv files to play in ubuntu?
[09:50] <ubun> Shiner421:  install the w32codecs and use mplayer
[09:51] <Shiner421> what if the link I click in a web page doesnt deafult to mplayer and doesnt let you choose what program to use to open the file?
[09:51] <DShepherd> dxdemetriou, I have been getting that too.. i dont know why though
[09:51] <Shiner421> and I am not sure how to install the w32codecs
[09:51] <Shiner421> I am REALLY new to linux hehe
[09:51] <ubun> Shiner421: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats#head-6c942d1939d97331f96e42b63774003fde7daed5
[09:51] <ubun> tells you how, very easy
[09:51] <Shiner421> ill read that now
[09:52] <Shiner421> thanks
[09:52] <ollekalle> q: when I run startx I get the error "No valid FontPath can be found." Any ideas?
[09:52] <ubun> Shiner421:  live on that page until you get all your multimedia working :)
[09:53] <ubun> installing everything at the top where it says 'how to get things working in a hurry' should cover you. without having to resort to using any dangerous scripts like automatix
[09:53] <dxdemetriou> DShepherd, I asked to know if it is a problem with my provider. If it is the same to you too, so it is for the time. I'll try later to see
[09:53] <DShepherd> dxdemetriou, i hope so
[09:53] <dudley> inittab should be in /etc/inittab yes?

[09:55] <Shiner421> anywhere else I can go to get the w32codecs?
[09:55] <dxdemetriou> DShepherd, your connection is the same as before? I had an upgrade for my dsl provider and I tried my first upgrade from then
[09:56] <Shiner421> anyone know where else I can get the w32 codecs for playing wmv files?
[09:57] <jhaig> I tried setting the proxy manually in "Network Proxy Preferences" but it didn't have any effect in Firefox (ie, I still had to set the proxy settings in Firefox).  What do these settings affect.
[09:57] <adaptr> Shiner421: getautomatix

[09:58] <sholden> I installed Edgy, and I cannot see all of my supported screen resolutions.  I tried to manually add them in xorg.conf, but I havent had any success.  Does anyone know how to correct this problem?

[09:58] <LuisMendes> is nvidia best for linux?
[09:59] <Shiner421> ok compiling something from source is beyond me at the moment
[09:59] <Shiner421> way beyond me
[10:00] <PriceChild> Is there anyone here who's 3D drivers have been broken by today's kernel -security updates?
[10:00] <Shiner421> I still cant really figure out the whole repositories thing and installing software
[10:00] <MystaMax> Hello, how do i find out a users UID and GUID via the CLI???
[10:00] <snowshoefox> !root
[10:00] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.

[10:02] <narvik86> Shiner421: http://www.mplayerhq.hu/design7/dload.html section "Binary codec package"
[10:03] <Shiner421> anyone know if there is a 3d desktop package for ubuntu?
[10:03] <Zakir> Shiner 421: what do you mean 3d desktop package? Have you seen beryl?
[10:03] <mats> "apt-cache search 3d desktop" :p
[10:03] <Shiner421> no have not seen beryl
[10:04] <Shiner421> but I did try out mandriva linux before going to ubuntu
[10:04] <MystaMax> pike_, trappist, Zakir thanks for response. I'm not sure I know how to read this. it says webdevtest:x:1000:1000:webdevtest.
[10:04] <kitche> Zakir: 3d desktop is a piece of software
[10:04] <Shiner421> ok I got mplayer, now it wont let me install it
[10:04] <Zakir> kitch, thanks... I thought that he was looking for a more 3-d looking windows manager
[10:04] <trappist> MystaMax: first number is the uid, second is the gid.  `id` is easier to grok.
[10:04] <Shiner421> says I have no application to handle that kind of program
[10:05] <MystaMax> trappist, perfect thanks!
[10:05] <avis> you mean the ray of light ?
[10:05] <kitche> Zakir: from what I have seen 3d desktop just makes screenshots and lets you spin them around and such haven't used it myself really
[10:05] <MystaMax> ID <username> is alot easier
[10:05] <Shiner421> yea that link u gave me for mplayer worked, however, it requires me to compile it from source and that I cannot yet do
[10:05] <avis> God lord my child is calling another man dad.
[10:05] <nothlit> Shiner421, yes the 3ddesktop package is in ubuntu
[10:05] <Shiner421> cool how do I get to it?
[10:06] <narvik86> Shiner421: you can download codecs for mplayer's page, codecs are binary so you just have to copy them into right place, no need to compile anything
[10:06] <Shiner421> hmm ok im lost
[10:06] <Shiner421> oh wait
[10:07] <Shiner421> I think I got ya
[10:07] <Shiner421> now the problem is I have no idea where the right place is
[10:07] <narvik86>  The default directory is /usr/local/lib/codecs/
[10:09] <Shiner421> ok that directory does not exist on my system
[10:09] <see-g__> Shiner421: there's a README file in the codec package telling you where to put the codecs
[10:10] <narvik86> Shiner421: /usr/lib/codecs in ubuntu should work
[10:10] <see-g__> just do a mkdir /usr/lib/codec [am I right?]
[10:10] <Shiner421> that directory also does not exist
[10:10] <narvik86>  /usr/lib/codecs <- exist on mine machine, so create it
[10:10] <see-g__> I'm not sure about the codec directory anyways so don't put them into /usr/lib/codec unless the README says so
[10:11] <Shiner421> ok this is not going well :(
[10:11] <Shiner421> no readme in the archive
[10:11] <kane77> how do I turn on the spell checking in open office??
[10:11] <see-g__> wait a mom, I'll have a look
[10:11] <Shiner421> matter of fact I extracted all files to desktop just so I could find them and there were no files in it
[10:11] <narvik86> http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/README <- readme
[10:12] <see-g__> or use that one ;)
[10:12] <Shiner421> ok it worked this time, but how do I now move all those files over to the right directory, the file manager I am using (no idea which one) doesnt seem to have a copy option
[10:13] <ph8> anyone ever got a laptop's built in SD card reader working in ubuntu?
[10:13] <see-g__> it might be easier to open your shell, cd into the codec-directory and copy them over...
[10:14] <see-g__> (if you understand what I'm saying, that is ;))
[10:15] <avis> i'll be wired.
[10:15] <Drizzt321> anyone using an expresscard in here? with the pciehp pci express hotplug module? I need help
[10:15] <Shiner421> ok something is really messed up with my system, I cant get ANYTHING to work now
[10:15] <Shiner421> I keep getting a timestamp too far in the future error
[10:15] <Shiner421> I think I have to reinstall ubuntu
[10:16] <RancidLM> hey all.. i would like to use beryl but im having problems with it working with gnome. when beryl+gnome starts up all my theme data for gnome goes back to the basics.. it dissregards my icon set and controls. can some one please help me i think it has to do with the session that ubuntu starts gnome with?
[10:16] <Shiner421> man that sucks, I spent 4 hours last night figuring out how to get my video drivers installed
[10:16] <see-g__> shiner: rebooting fixed that for me...
[10:16] <serishema> shiner421: this is caused by the time and date being incorrect when you first installed it, setting the wrong timezone can cause this problem too
[10:16] <Shiner421> oh, I just reset and installed NTP
[10:16] <Shiner421> well, I have to go to work anyways, wish I could stay and learn
[10:16] <Shiner421> thanks a ton for the help folks, I will be back :p
