[02:52] <bobbob1016> I installed zfs-fuse, and I made a zpool and everything.  I'm trying to share it via nfs, when I restart my nfs server, it says I need the right fsid, anyone know what that is?
[02:52] <Guest44550> could it be iptables firewall
[02:52] <KenBW22> Slart: lol. i think i have soe understanding of regexp - from Dreaamweaver actually but i think it's similar
[02:52] <donalddoyle_> all i want is an application to let me video chat with AIM
[02:53] <JCusick> Guest44550, have you tried firefox yet?
[02:53] <Guest44550> yes i'm on ubuntu linux 8,10
[02:53] <Slart> KenBW22: yea, regular expressions are pretty much the same everywhere (with some small exceptions)
[02:53] <Paddy_EIRE> donalddoyle, "all I want" does not make something immediately gratifying
[02:53] <JCusick> and firefox won't connect to localhost?
[02:54] <donalddoyle_> ok
[02:54] <donalddoyle_> i know it doesnt
[02:54] <Guest44550> how is that done? typing in <IP_ADDRESS>
[02:54] <JCusick> iptables will not stop local connections unless you have told it to.
[02:54] <Paddy_EIRE> donalddoyle, you could try running AIM in wine
[02:54] <donalddoyle_> how can i learn more on how to use ubuntu
[02:54] <JCusick> try http://localhost
[02:55] <JCusick> and check the Listen directive in the config fil
[02:55] <pikario> hi, whenever i try to copy something to my sd card, it says "the destination is read-only"
[02:55] <Guest44550> it says it works on a blank page
[02:55] <Paddy_EIRE> !wiki | donalddoyle
[02:55] <pikario> i'm using tifm_sd module
[02:55] <Guest44550> how is that accomplished
[02:55] <donalddoyle_> thank u
[02:55] <Slart> KenBW22: I look forward to pestering you when I run into problems with sed some day but at the moment I have to get to sleep.. good luck with  whatever project you are working on
[02:55] <Paddy_EIRE> donalddoyle, and launchpad and the ubuntuforums
[02:55] <JCusick> have you set up apache to serve any pages?
[02:56] <marceloplt> hello
[02:56] <Guest44550> no just installed it haven't configured it yet.
[02:56] <Paddy_EIRE> donalddoyle, there are almost endless resources really.. although I am not so sure about aim webcam support
[02:56] <KenBW22> Slart: i need sleep too lol, too much ubuntu addiction :)
[02:56] <JCusick> ah... well, that will do it, you are connecting but there is no index
[02:56] <darnell> seriously? its hard to get help in this channel... all I want is assistance with bluetooth!! its a well known problem with intrepid. is there a fix?
[02:56] <Slart> KenBW22: if you run into problems there's always #ubuntu or #bash
[02:57] <JCusick> check the docs, it's too complicated to explain on irc... go to apache.org and read the manual
[02:57] <KenBW22> Slart: think ive found a good tutorial. thanks for the help :)
[02:57] <patb> system clock
[02:57] <patb> as if
[02:57] <Guest44550> ok now where getting some where how do i configure for that or is there a how-to
[02:57] <eseven73> darnell: no one's getting paid here, relax :)
[02:57] <patb> system isnt compromised
[02:57] <Slart> KenBW22: you're welcome
[02:57] <JCusick> apache.org
[02:57] <patb> ll
[02:57] <patb> lol
[02:57] <bazhang> darnell, perhaps providing more info than 'want help with bluetooth' would get more answers
[02:57] <Flannel> Guest44550: Put stuff in /var/www and make sure its readable by www-data (making it world readable is generally the easiest way)
[02:57] <darnell> i did, ive been asking for hours
[02:57] <darnell> but...
[02:58] <Paddy_EIRE> darnell, kind of like saying "my car is broken.. I think its the metal thing"
[02:58] <darnell> when i try to send a file to my phone via bluetooth, it said obex push not supported
[02:58] <Guest44550> bash: /var/www: is a directory
[02:58] <JCusick> try a simple file called index.html (and use html tags in the file for best results)
[02:58] <darnell> Paddy, i explained my problem multiple times in detail
[02:58] <darnell> for hours
[02:58] <Flannel> Guest44550: right.  You put stuff in that directory
[02:58] <JCusick> Good Luck
[02:58] <Paddy_EIRE> !patience
[02:59] <darnell> well if there is a paid service ill use that
[02:59] <Paddy_EIRE> darnell, perhaps you should take a break from this problem for a while as its typically difficult to deal with irate tired people that have been on the same topic for hours
[03:00] <Paddy_EIRE> darnell, yes there is
[03:00] <JCusick> darnell, have you checked the maker of your phone to see if obex push is supported?
[03:00] <darnell> im not taking a break, ...
[03:00] <Paddy_EIRE> !support
[03:00] <darnell> ive been using ubuntu for years..
[03:00] <darnell> ive had the same phone for years
[03:00] <bazhang> darnell, the only question I see from you is 'need help with bluetooth'; provide a much more substantive question svp
[03:00] <darnell> its intrepid..
[03:00] <Paddy_EIRE> darnell, http://www.ubuntu.com/support/paid
[03:00] <Guest44550> sudo su
[03:00] <shadowimmage> does ubuntu support eSATA pcmcia cards or express cards??
[03:01] <JCusick> darnell, have you checked the ubuntu forums for help?
[03:01] <darnell> yes
[03:01] <darnell> and google, yahoo etc
[03:01] <nickrud> Paddy_EIRE, that wasn't called for -- walk away when you're feeling stressed :)
[03:01] <darnell> thats the ONLY reason i come here..
[03:01] <Paddy_EIRE> nickrud, keep up
[03:01] <nickrud> Paddy_EIRE, did
[03:01] <JCusick> my phone doesn't support push, so I can't help
[03:01] <Paddy_EIRE> nickrud, he asked for a paid service
[03:01] <Paddy_EIRE> nickrud, keep up jump jokey :P
[03:01] <Paddy_EIRE> *jockey
[03:01] <darnell> if noone knows thats fine...
[03:01] <mindrape> darnell - since obex seems to be the source of your problems have you considered googling                file push without obex?
[03:02] <darnell> thats not a solution...
[03:02] <mindrape> why not?
[03:02] <darnell> listen... ubuntu worked fine in hardy and all previous distros.. with bluetooth
[03:02] <darnell> i've even gotten it to work with a iphone ...
[03:02] <JCusick> then downgrade :)
[03:02] <nickrud> Paddy_EIRE, I kept up, but somehow I missed that one line -  :)
[03:02] <darnell> oh yeah..
[03:03] <Guest44550> flannel i sent you a pm
[03:03] <darnell> everyone .. "downgrade"
[03:03] <shadowimmage> does ubuntu support eSATA on pcmcia cards or express cards??
[03:03] <eseven73> thats what i did
[03:03] <Paddy_EIRE> nickrud, amazing what a difference those single sentences make... I wish I had not killed my wife now :(
[03:03] <x0r> dsv'
[03:03] <darnell> its cool..
[03:03] <eseven73> Im happy with 8.04, theres nothing in 8.10 i need
[03:03] <darnell> ill figure it out..
[03:03] <Paddy_EIRE> darnell, whats the chipset
[03:04] <Slart> darnell: I've been looking for a solution to the same problem.. I've googled, checked forums, downloaded new versions of bluetooth drivers.. none of it made a difference..
[03:04] <darnell> just figured if it was "bleeding/cutting edge" it should work
[03:04] <Flannel> Guest44550: Ah.  Best to keep it in channel.  You can use sudo with cp to copy stuff there.  If you're completely out of place with the command line, you can use `gksu nautilus` to open a nautilus window with elevated privledges.  Be *extremely* careful with that, and close it as soon as youre done (copy the files, then make them world readable)
[03:04] <nickrud> darnell, have you tried looking on the bugtracker; it may be a known regression
[03:04] <darnell> slart..thanx for letting me know that.
[03:04] <JCusick> quite the opposite, unfortunately
[03:04] <Slart> darnell: I can't remember why it was broken.. I think I found some kind of reason somewhere but I don't remember it atm
[03:04] <Flannel> Guest44550: A better long term solution is to add yourself to the www-data group, and then give group write permissions to /var/www (after changing its owner to www-data:www-data)
[03:05] <nickrud> darnell, and if it isn't logged and your phone worked with previous versions they'd probably appreciate/hate a bug report
[03:05] <mindrape> The more cutting edge a tool/protocol/etc is is inversely proportional to the likelihood that it will work, darnell... just as an FYI.
[03:05] <Slart> darnell: basically I've given up.. I use a wire to connect my phone while I wait for jaunty
[03:05] <Guest44550> cp: missing file operand
[03:05] <Maslow> Hello, quick question here; what is the newest ubuntu build and is there a way to use wubi to install it?
[03:05] <JCusick> raed the cp man page... man cp
[03:06] <bazhang> Maslow, #ubuntu+1 for jaunty discussion
[03:06] <mindrape> cp somefile /over/here/plz/kthx/

[03:07] <pikario> what is a popular sftp client for ubuntu?
[03:07] <eseven73> filezilla
[03:07] <pikario> does filezilla support sftp?
[03:07] <Slart> darnell: here's one of the many bluetooth bugs that have been reported.. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bluez/+bug/306721
[03:07] <eseven73> yep
[03:07] <pikario> ok
[03:07] <JCusick> pscp, psftp, and sftp
[03:08] <jtaji> pikario: I usually use Places > connect to server... and select ssh, which lets you use the file manager
[03:08] <shadowimmage> gftp?
[03:08] <Guest44550> what files are those
[03:08] <jtaji> pikario: there's also gftp
[03:08] <pikario> cool
[03:09] <jtaji> pikario: or scp on the command line of course ;)
[03:09] <darnell> well... thats not good because currently there is no way to sync a windows mobile phone with ubuntu..
[03:09] <darnell> bluetooth was the last option
[03:10] <Guest44550> i have filezilla which has those files in them is this correct flannel or jcusick
[03:10] <JCusick> what files?
[03:10] <Slart> darnell: here's a list of all the bugs reported against the bluetooth implementation.. something is very broken and I hope they will be able to fix it in time for jaunty (april) https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bluez
[03:11] <darnell> slart, thanks
[03:11] <Guest44550> i have filezilla which has those files in them is this correct flannel or jcusick
[03:11] <JCusick> what files?
[03:12] <Guest44550> www-data or var
[03:12] <JCusick> those are directories
[03:12] <Flannel> Guest44550: /var/www is the folder, www-data:www-data is the owner(s) (user:group)
[03:13] <JCusick> what you need is a file called "index.html" in the /var/www directory

[03:17] <shaullx> i added theme to emerald themer but nothing happens how to aply it?
[03:17] <JCusick> and forget the caps lock prob :)
Hello World

[03:18] <Guest44550> The document could not be saved, as it was not possible to write to file:///var/www/index.html.
[03:18] <Guest44550> Check that you have write access to this file or that enough disk space is available.
[03:18] <Ivis> this "support" channel sucks every day more and more
[03:19] <JCusick> That will give you a heading (the h1 tag) and the words Hello World
[03:19] <DIFH-iceroot> Ivis: you have a ubuntu related question?
[03:19] <JCusick> on a web page
[03:19] <Boohbah> HenryHeron: choose the manual partition option and select your old ubuntu partitions. the installer should leave your windows partition alone
[03:19] <Ivis> why i can't get help? becouse i know english a litle bad
[03:19] <shaullx> i added theme to emerald themer but nothing happens how to aply it?

[03:19] <Ground0_> !patience | Ivis
[03:19] <JCusick> Guest44550, you really need to go to apache.org and read the manual, as well as learn how to write html
[03:20] <Boohbah> Ivis: you asked some vague question about hardware support... more easily solved by a google search for your particular model
[03:20] <JCusick> w3c.org has an online free school to learn html
[03:20] <job> jtaji, thanks for your help
[03:20] <pikario> hi, how do i format an sd card?
[03:20] <Ivis> im not bad person :) before some years this channel are much better , mybe people are changing :)
[03:20] <HenryHeron> Boohbah I am not sure where this comes when you boot from live CD. Is it after the 'install' option?
[03:20] <atrus> meoblast001: i get transparency with the murrine engine, but only on some apps. (gnome-system-monitor for example)
[03:20] <Mimi> is it possible to tell apt-get to prevent an application from being uninstalled?
[03:20] <meoblast001> atrus: let me try
[03:20] <Guest44550> ok your right and thanks for help how do i get write access to that file
[03:21] <meoblast001> atrus: i dont see it
[03:21] <Ground0_> [7:16pm]« Ivis » i have a buy full hd monitor 1080p , does ubuntu can playback normaly ?
[03:21] <Boohbah> HenryHeron: yes, there is a step in the installer that asks to format your partitions. choose the manual option
[03:21] <Ivis> Ground0_ yea how is it ?
[03:21] <JCusick> read the man page for chown, man chown, in a terminal
[03:21] <maxxist> Ground0_ yes I have had no problem with 1080p
[03:21] <Ground0_> dont knwo bro
[03:21] <Ground0_> there u go Ivis
[03:21] <JCusick> open a terminal and type "man chown" forget the quotes
[03:21] <jercos> sounds like some kinda hip lingo for being beaten at a sport
[03:21] <HenryHeron> Boohbah & just proceed...?
[03:22] <jercos> you just got chown'd, boi!
[03:22] <jercos> ya know?
[03:22] <Boohbah> Mimi: aptitude hold package-name
[03:23] <atrus> meoblast001: hm. i also don't get it in the regular murrine theme, but i do with the "DarkRoom" theme, which also uses the murrine engine
[03:23] <Mimi> Boohbah, :D thanks, but won't that make it unable to upgrade it?
[03:23] <Paddy_EIRE> Boohbah, I thought he was asking specifically for apt-get
[03:23] <Ivis> thanks :) and sorry , what i said about channel before :))
[03:23] <JCusick> Guest44550, if you are brand-spanking new to Linux, I strongly reccommend getting the book "Running Linux". It'll be the best 20.00 you ever spent
[03:23] <Ivis> i ask about full hd becouse on ubuntu dvd playback was bad
[03:24] <meoblast001> atrus: idk..... maybe i need to update..... how does vista get every app to do that? it should be connected with the GTK controls to make the transparency i think
[03:24] <Boohbah> Mimi: is that not what you wanted?
[03:24] <Mimi> Paddy_EIRE, doing it in aptitude, won't it also tell apt-get?
[03:24] <Paddy_EIRE> Mimi, type "man apt-get" in a terminal without the quotes
[03:24] <atrus> meoblast001: i don't really know, sorry.
[03:24] <Boohbah> HenryHeron: you will have to manually select your new ubuntu partitions to write over the old.
[03:24] <Guest44550> thanks the tip i'm reading the chown page now and then i will proceed to the we site you posted
[03:25] <JCusick> That book will tell you everything you need to know... and more :)
[03:25] <JCusick> O'Reilly Press, Running Linux
[03:25] <HenryHeron> Boohbah Sorry to belabor, but it is critical... where or how is is the selection done?
[03:25] <mrpockets> how do i change the tags on an mp3?
[03:26] <Paddy_EIRE> Mimi, apt-get would be my preferred way.. but you are free to use aptitude if you please
[03:26] <Boohbah> Paddy_EIRE: how exactly would one accomplish that using apt-get?
[03:26] <Boohbah> echo "package_name hold"|dpkg --set-selections

[03:33] <IndyGunFreak> Boohbah: i don't think thats been a prob since gutsy.. my laptop uses hda-intel, and its worked fine the last few releases..
[03:33] <IndyGunFreak> Boohbah: hmm, i stand corrected, weird
[03:33] <cr4shc0de> How did you fix it
[03:33] <cr4shc0de> but it have a s101
[03:33] <srbaker> heya folks.  how do i get information on what module ubuntu loaded for my sound card?
[03:33] <srbaker> preferably, logs on the hardware detection
[03:34] <infinity_> Ground0_: can it be done automatically?
[03:34] <infinity_> hmm
[03:34] <JCusick> infinity, the command I mentioned is the only "automatic way" I know
[03:34] <Boohbah> cr4shc0de: so, does the sound fail in a particular application?
[03:34] <maxxist> att0  try just removing your firefox preferences in your user account...  its folder .mozilla
[03:34] <JCusick> or log out and back in
[03:34] <cr4shc0de> everything after it loads
[03:34] <Ground0_> infinity_ read it man
[03:34] <infinity_> JCusick: the env is set by ssh, so i can't source anything to get it
[03:34] <IndyGunFreak> "sounds" strange...lol
[03:35] <att0> maxxist: will do
[03:35] <Ground0_> srbaker $ tail -s 3 -f /var/log/messages
[03:35] <Guest44550>  thanks for the help jcusick and flannel
[03:35] <moijk> srbaker: lsmod for list of kernel modules, dmesg after restart tells you most there is about the bootup
[03:35] <maxxist> att0  or just rename it.
[03:35] <stan> win2k8 wants to be activated .. time to 'activate' it via the ubuntu install cd.
[03:35] <JCusick> Guest44550, no problem, Good Luck
[03:35] <infinity_> Ground0_: just did. it didn't tell me anything new
[03:36] <obf213> fuggg. internetz just totally stopped working on ubuntu..it connects to networks but not internet
[03:36] <Ground0_> Ground0_ what u mean new?
[03:36] <Boohbah> srbaker: cat /proc/asound/cards
[03:36] <cads> hello
[03:36] <[[thufir]]> will there be data loss on sda according to http://pastebin.ca/1295590 ?   I don't understand what it's saying about partition table changes.
[03:36] <att0> maxxist: is it in "etc"?
[03:36] <infinity_> Ground0_: i know about those commands. i know how to source my bashrc. i need something to inhert my env in screen
[03:36] <maxxist> att0  no.  its under your home folder.   /home/att0/.mozilla
[03:37] <infinity_> Ground0_: because the SSH variables are dynamic and aren't created by a login script
[03:37] <[[thufir]]> obf213: you're not on shaw cable, are you?
[03:37] <maxxist> att0 are you in terminal?
[03:37] <Ground0_> infinity_ not sure
[03:37] <johninlex> what would be the best program to write ubuntu to a jump drive
[03:37] <obf213> did anyone lose internet connectivity over the last few days/was there some kind of update? this is killing me internet has worked fine as long as i can remember this started 2 days ago. or yesterday
[03:37] <srbaker> weird
[03:37] <JCusick> infinity, the only way, if you're using bash, is to source the environment, either the link Ground0 sent you or the method I mentioned
[03:37] <srbaker> it says HDA-Intel, and USB-Audio
[03:37] <srbaker> huh
[03:37] <att0> maxxist:no, I am in Nautilus but I found it :)
[03:37] <srbaker> oh!
[03:37] <Boohbah> johninlex: unetbootin
[03:37] <srbaker> usb-audio is my camera, i bet
[03:37] <cads> i've deleted files off of a partition mounted in my system.. I emptied my trash, but when I try to unmount the partition it says that the trash is not empty and do I want to recover the space. I definitely do not, I'd like to save the files, because I accdientally deleted them. Where is the partition's recycle bin so I can restore the files?
[03:37] <infinity_> JCusick: umm. I just said the commands don't exist in a script.
[03:38] <[[thufir]]> obf213: did you read my message?
[03:38] <infinity_> JCusick: the environment is created by sshd
[03:38] <Ground0_> ~[ johninlex ]~ http://letmegooglethatforyou.com/?q=ubuntu+on+jump+drive
[03:38] <obf213> [[thurfir]] no im not. i was not.
[03:38] <cr4shc0de> Boohbah; think u can help me fix it?
[03:38] <johninlex> Thank you boohbah
[03:38] <Boohbah> Ground0_: great link :)
[03:38] <maxxist> att0  yeah most of your preference folders are hidden in your home folder...

[03:44] <natnayr89> Ground0_: what does that do?
[03:44] <Ground0_> restores it
[03:44] <JCusick> inifinity, what changes after you log in?

[03:45] <Accidus> I'm having problems with hibernating. I'm using a Dell Inspiron 1545 laptop. When I hibernate, the machine freezes upon resume, just before the login screen appears. Nothig but physical reset unfreezes it. The mouse pointer won't even move. If I disable compiz, I sometimes manage to hibernate once, but the second time it freezes again. My swap space is 6GB for a 3GB RAM. I've tried to log at the boot log, but shut down seem to go alright,
[03:46] <Accidus> whereas nothing was written to log upon resume. Anyone knows what might cause this, or what can I do to better diagnoze the problem?
[03:46] <[[thufir]]> per http://pastebin.ca/1295590 , will sda lose data?   I didn't make any changes, but the installer keeps talking about changes to the partition table.
[03:46] <Accidus> I've searched the forums and google, but didn't find anything relevant that wasn't decreed 'fixed'
[03:47] <steve1984> can someone help me with a situation i am having with my chipset drivers for ubuntu 8.10
[03:48] <steve1984> is any one here
[03:48] <trupheenix> hi i'm facing a major bug with the git package on Ubuntu hardy. http://paste.uni.cc/19553 Please check that out, basically it's adding files which I specified to ignore under .gitignore. it's completely incorrect. Can anyone push an upgrade for the existing git-core package? I tried the exact same commands on Intrepid Ibex and it worked perfect.
[03:48] <natnayr89> Accidus: im also having that problem with my hibernate, doesnt seem to hibernate as well in a proper manner, i think the reason is due to the linux distributions not having the proper drivers used in DELL inspiron
[03:48] <Accidus> natnayr89: You too, eh? Suspend works great, but hibernate breaks, right?
[03:49] <steve1984> i need to find linux drivers for my intel integrated graphics DG35EC motherboard
[03:50] <RichW1> steve1984: it should just work out the box
[03:50] <RichW1> steve1984: unlike windows, linux comes with drivers out the box
[03:51] <steve1984> not for linux no drivers came with it for linux
[03:51] <natnayr89> Accidus: yeah, i think its a dell issue
[03:51] <steve1984> i only get 480 by 640 res.
[03:51] <Accidus> Damn.
[03:51] <natnayr89> Accidus: ive a inspiron 9300 here with me
[03:51] <steve1984> well i guess my motherboard is too edvanced for linux then
[03:51] <GreedyB> Anyone know why my blkid shows the wrong information?  I'm trying to modify my fstab but blkid is showing the wrong information
[03:51] <Accidus> natnayr89: 9300? I thought it was fixed with that one...
[03:52] <natnayr89> Accidus: nt sure yet
[03:52] <steve1984> rich??
[03:52] <natnayr89> Accidus: when was it fixed?
[03:52] <Accidus> I looked it up in some forums and I thought people said it was fixed.
[03:52] <Accidus> I'lll try to find that thread again.
[03:52] <natnayr89> Accidus: with the new ubuntu?
[03:52] <natnayr89> Accidus: 8.10?

[04:05] <Boohbah> tensei: cp
[04:05] <MenZa> rep: Check the inside of your case.
[04:05] <rep> so all graphics card shud be compatible
[04:05] <steve1984> im new to irc i have no idea how to do that
[04:05] <tensei> boohbah: ?? how would that go? do I type it in the terminal?
[04:05] <Dom1> it might work just fine.  I haven't used cinelerra in about 2 years but basically you just
[04:05] <rep> just gotta check the power supply
[04:05] <Dom1> hit import or something, select the file
[04:05] <Boohbah> MenZa: that is not generally useful when the information could be obtained from lspci.
[04:05] <Dom1> and throw it on the timeline.
[04:05] <steve1984> i have the terminal window open and all that stuff is dosplayed
[04:05] <Dom1> chop it up
[04:05] <RichW1> steve1984: just put output on pastebin.com
[04:06] <Dom1> then render it
[04:06] <bazhang> steve1984, open a browser and type in paste.ubuntu.com
[04:06] <MenZa> Last I checked, the wattage of the PSU wasn't listed in lspci, Boohbah.
[04:06] <steve1984> ok
[04:06] <bazhang> steve1984, then open a terminal and type in lspci
[04:06] <RichW1> steve1984: and give us the url afterwards

[04:08] <Dom1> to be more precise about my issue: something apt-related is generating a bad sources.list line
[04:08] <Dom1> it should say
[04:08] <Dom1> something like http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/
[04:08] <Dom1> but instead it's generating:
[04:08] <Dom1> something like http://.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/
[04:09] <bazhang> Dom1, please paste.ubuntu.com with sources.list
[04:09] <Dom1> sure.
[04:09] <RichW1> steve1984: I think you have a very recent graphics card in your computer, this could be causing the trouble.. il find a soloution.
[04:10] <steve1984> thanx
[04:10] <steve1984> its not a graphics card though its onboard integrated intel graphics
[04:10] <Slack_> whats the syntax for a .tbz2 instal
[04:10] <bazhang> Slack_, what package
[04:10] <Boohbah> steve1984: should use the xserver-xorg-video-intel driver.
[04:11] <steve1984> all that i know is that i am able to use dual moniters on windows xp and vista with it
[04:11] <Slack_> i just know its a .tbz2
[04:11] <pikario> hi, i need to format my sd card... but it's not being recognized in gparted as a device. it's mounted, however, and is perfectly readable as /media/disk
[04:11] <pikario> my sd card is being recognized in 'df' on a terminal, but it's not showing up in gparted: /dev/mmcblk0p1         1920704    806784   1113920  43% /media/disk
[04:11] <bazhang> Slack_, best to find if package is in the repos first
[04:11] <rsteenwyk> From the shell, how can I move all of the contents of a folder but not the folder itself to another location?
[04:11] <Boohbah> Slack_: tar xjvf file.tbz2; cd file/; make; sudo make install
[04:12] <Slack_> Boohbah: thank you
[04:12] <steve1984> well i installed 8.10 today and it didnt pick it up i would have worked and when i went into the hardware drivers app it didnt come up with anything
[04:12] <Boohbah> Slack_: but you won't be able to manage it with ubuntu's package management tools
[04:12] <steve1984> so what do i do
[04:13] <RichW1> steve1984: does system --> preferences --> screen resoloution only list 640x480?
[04:13] <steve1984> u trying to say i have to learn how to write a driver for it
[04:13] <dummyhead3> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1017988
[04:13] <steve1984> it only lists that
[04:13] <steve1984> thats right rich
[04:14] <eseven73> !tab | steve1984 :)
[04:14] <RichW1> steve1984: so you have another screen hooked up to it and both only do 640x480?
[04:14] <steve1984> i dont have the other hooked up right now im still trying to find the right driver for graphics chipset on linux
[04:14] <RichW1> steve1984: i thought maybe it might not be detecting your monitors capabiilitys correctly
[04:15] <steve1984> ive ran 1024 and 1280 res,'s on these moniters before
[04:15] <RichW1> steve1984: I cant find many problems with your graphics chipset so it could be your monitor.
[04:15] <eseven73> steve1984: sorry ubottu wasnt very helpful that time, what i was meaning was you can easily type someones nick on IRC by typing like the first two or three letters then press TAB key :)
[04:15] <rsteenwyk> Does anyone know what command I need to use to move all of the contents of /Folder to /Folder2 without moving /Folder into /Folder2? does that make any sense?
[04:15] <steve1984> its a compaq flat panel 5017
[04:16] <steve1984> its cool id rather type
[04:16] <joeb3_> rsteenwyk, cp -R /folder /folder2
[04:16] <Boohbah> rsteenwyk: cp

[04:16] <steve1984> ahh thats cool
[04:16] <rsteenwyk> ah, okay. thanks much, the man pages always confuse the crap out of me!
[04:17] <steve1984> be back in one minute bathroom lol
[04:17] <eseven73> steve1984: yea really cool for annoying hard to type nicks like Mageiriki-me-bas (no offense to you Mageiriki-me-bas )   ;)
[04:17] <steve1984> lol
[04:17] <NemesisD> hi all. for some reason when i try to delete a file i have to permanantly delete the file because it can't be moved to the trash. Whats up with that?
[04:18] <Dom1> one confusing thing, it seems like the 'feisty' dir has been removed from all the mirrors
[04:18] <Dom1> probably cause old, but I can't install anything at all and this is blocking me.
[04:18] <Dom1> but yea, any insight would be useful.  if not I was going to hack apart the update-manager code and see what's going wrong when generting this bad server name.
[04:19] <bazhang> Dom1, you are wishing to upgrade? that is feisty which is eol; need to use old-releases.ubuntu.com if so
[04:19] <Dom1> I couldn't find any bugs that quite matched this.
[04:19] <eseven73> Dom1: why not just reinstall 8.04 or 8.10? upgrading from such and old release is a pain
[04:19] <Dom1> hm gotcha, I could do that.
[04:19] <steve1984> i am here
[04:19] <Dom1> I was hoping to take the cheap lazy way out, but if it's that bad I can maybe redo it.
[04:20] <eseven73> its not 'bad' its a pain
[04:20] <Dom1> I had a ton of custom dev libraries installed was the only reason I didn't want to go from scratch
[04:20] <Dom1> I wasn't aware of old-release.ubuntu.com
[04:20] <Boohbah> steve1984: have you checked here? http://www.google.com/search?q=ubuntu+intrepid+dual+monitor+intel
[04:20] <Dom1> *releases
[04:20] <RichW1> steve1984: you might want to try rebooting into live cd with a different monitor so that it redetects it, see if it finds your resoloution.
[04:21] <eseven73> Dom1: doubtful those old custom libs would work now anyways
[04:21] <Boohbah> steve1984: there are a number of ways to do dual monitor support, so you may have to try some things
[04:21] <steve1984> can anyone tell me how to get a .rpm install file to work in ubuntu 8.10 \
[04:21] <eseven73> steve1984: thats not recommended
[04:21] <Boohbah> steve1984: can't find a .deb for it? ubuntu and 3rd-party repo's have almost everything
[04:22] <RichW1> steve1984: tell us what it is, we will most likly find you a .deb
[04:22] <steve1984> lol i dont car about the dual support in linux i just want my graphics drivers to work for 1280x1024 so i can play my wow and stuff sucks when your using linux but your graphics suck
[04:22] <DiiPhantom> steve1984, what you want to install?
[04:23] <steve1984> dri-I915-v1.1-20041217.i386.rpm
[04:23] <Boohbah> steve1984: System > Preferences > Screen Resolution ?
[04:23] <DiiPhantom> !nfs
[04:23] <RichW1> steve1984: you might want to try my suggestions... (04:20:44) RichW1: steve1984: you might want to try rebooting into live cd with a different monitor so that it redetects it, see if it finds your resoloution.
[04:23] <steve1984> its intel driver graphics im going to try it but it has to be converted
[04:23] <Dom1> hm oh, yea I forgot I can dual boot 2 linux distros.  I've been out of the loop for too long.
[04:23] <Boohbah> steve1984: the same driver is available in the ubuntu repo's you don't need an rpm
[04:23] <steve1984> so if i reboot into a live cd
[04:24] <RichW1> steve1984: you could try opensuse, if that fails, that is another good linux distribution :)
[04:24] <steve1984> and it does detect it does that mean i have to reinstall my current linux
[04:24] <Dom1> I'll do that and if it's not done being setup in 2 days when I need it for an event I can just boot the old one.
[04:24] <dummyhead3> steve1984: you can install alien, and use it to convert that rmp
[04:24] <RichW1> steve1984: if that works then we are making progress, maybe we get it working in normal installation too
[04:25] <steve1984> ive tried installing knoppix open suse and fedora and slakware all of them failed at installation
[04:25] <DiiPhantom> stephans, did ubuntu gave u thirparty drivers?
[04:25] <steve1984> with this computer i just built
[04:25] <steve1984> no i dont think so
[04:25] <steve1984> i dont know
[04:26] <nibsa1242> having trouble emptying trash -- it brings up a window that says file operations and then it just stalls there
[04:26] <DiiPhantom> steve1984, new to linux?
[04:26] <RichW1> he is
[04:26] <RichW1> i think
[04:26] <steve1984> few months messing around with live cds
[04:26] <DiiPhantom> nibsa1242, just right click the trash can and empty it from there
[04:26] <sneakyhippie> is anyone running ubuntu on the Intel DG45FC mobo? I can't get my sound to work
[04:26] <steve1984> yes i am newbie
[04:26] <nibsa1242> DiiPhantom: thats what I'm doing
[04:27] <steve1984> sneakyhippie: ive got a mobo close to your u have to mess with the sound manager thats what i had to do
[04:27] <nibsa1242> DiiPhantom: and it is a window that says "File Operations, Preparing, Preparing, Preparing" and then does nothing.
[04:27] <RichW1> steve1984: perhaps try my livecd idea and come back later...
[04:27] <DiiPhantom> steve1984, go to system>administration>Hardware drivers
[04:27] <steve1984> ok thankyou
[04:28] <steve1984> i did that phantom the window comes up blank
[04:28] <RichW1> DiiPhantom: Theres propetairy drivers for intel graphics?
[04:28] <DiiPhantom> and see from there if druivers are active
[04:28] <Dom1> thanks guys, good luck. peace out
[04:28] <DiiPhantom> doubt it but just testing
[04:28] <itsatrick> Hello.  Sorry for sounding like such a movie newbie.  I have a problem when I export movies (to any format).  When I play the video it looks all jerky (the raw video is just fine).  What would you say is causing this?  Would you like me to pastebin my settings?
[04:28] <DiiPhantom> steve1984, i need to reboot, just installed some updates, brb and nibsa1242
[04:28] <itsatrick> I'm using open movie editor.
[04:28] <steve1984> ive opened that window a dozen time today nuthing comes up in it
[04:28] <steve1984> no drivers for anything
[04:28] <steve1984> ok
[04:29] <steve1984> ill be back later
[04:29] <RichW1> steve1984: the graphics drivers are open source so they are bundled with ubuntu
[04:29] <sneakyhippie> steve1984: well i'm techincally running Mythbuntu 8.10 and there isn't many options in the sound manager, just selecting my sound device or default then checking or unchecking some controls. I'm relatively new to linux, do u know of some troubleshooting tips i can try? Maybe how to check what drivers are installed?
[04:29] <steve1984> yeah ya dont know how many packages ive downloaded and installed to day to get this thing working right and nuthing works i hate intel
[04:29] <nibsa1242> steve1984: what does lspci -v say about your sound card?
[04:30] <Boohbah> sneakyhippie: cat /proc/asound/cards
[04:30] <steve1984> what kind of computer u running cuz u can see what the mobo model is and look up linux drivers for it
[04:30] <cjs> So I do I get, in 8.10, what used to be the second tab in 8.04's session preferences: the list of applications currently running in the session, and their restart status, and so on?
[04:31] <steve1984> i have 2 soundcards running
[04:31] <cjs> I'm trying to switch my gnome session from metacity/etc. to fvwm on this newly installed 8.10 box.
[04:31] <steve1984> ill see
[04:31] <woli> can I make a filetype out of a folder?
[04:32] <nibsa1242> steve1984: right click on the speaker icon in the top right, choose Open Volume control, make sure things are turned on and volume is up (not set to all the way down).
[04:32] <Boohbah> woli: what are you trying to do>
[04:32] <steve1984> my sound is working i was trying to help someone else lol
[04:32] <nibsa1242> steve1984: sry, didn't realize lol

[04:41] <RichW1> steve1984: the radeon 4850 had a very good price/performance ratio and keeps up with the more expensive nvidia cards
[04:42] <woli> so, i guess nobody has it?
[04:42] <RichW1> steve1984: has*
[04:42] <nibsa1242> why does emptying the trash take forever? mine sits there saying something about file operations...
[04:42] <RichW1> steve1984: intrepid has the binary drivers for it too.
[04:42] <steve1984> i heard from friends at radeon  cards dont always work very well with linux distros
[04:42] <nibsa1242> is there anything wrong with emptying the trash from the terminal?
[04:43] <cjs> Hm. So nobody knows how I get that list of programs runnning in the current gnome session that used to be the second panel in "Session Options" under 8.04, but is no longer there under 8.10?
[04:43] <steve1984> whats intrepid never heard of it does intrepid have a live cd or dvd i can try
[04:43] <RichW1> Well I am running one and the only problem I have is when watching a video and using compiz, it flickers. its fixable by temporarily disabling compiz
[04:43] <woli> nvidia is the way to go. always
[04:43] <RichW1> you should not play games with compiz on anyway
[04:43] <woli> .
[04:43] <nibsa1242> steve1984: my Radeon X800XL works just fine, but I think when the 1xxx series first came out there were issues.
[04:44] <RichW1> I support ATI for the fact that they have released hardware documentation to the linux developers
[04:44] <steve1984> radeon is ATI?
[04:44] <RichW1> yes
[04:44] <woli> steve1984, intrepid ibex is the alias of 8.10

[04:51] <mgolisch> any idea howto benchmark a nas?
[04:51] <sleepy_cat> go to your terminal and access the same path and then do ls -ls and see which files are there
[04:51] <mgolisch> bonnie doesnt seem to work for that
[04:51] <mgolisch> :)
[04:52] <woli> steve1984, i would give it a go then
[04:52] <sleepy_cat> if there you see any files then do sudo rm <filename> or sudo rm * of there are many files
[04:52] <mgolisch> its just and only about the maximum throughput with one connection
[04:52] <woli> steve1984, one more thing, do you play warcraft iii ?
[04:52] <mgolisch> any ideas?
[04:52] <sleepy_cat> let me know if this works i havnt tried this in days

[04:52] <nibsa1242> sleepy_cat: I would only be able to do that if I knew where the trash folder was... I don't know where the trash dir is. When I went to the one you told me about I used the terminal and sudo ls -a
[04:53] <steve1984> lol no world of warcraft lol
[04:53] <sleepy_cat> just go to terminal type pwd and tell me where u are u must probably be in /home/nibsa1242
[04:54] <donavan> anyone know how to check to see if drivers installed correctly for a device?
[04:54] <sleepy_cat> there do cd .local/share/Trash

[04:54] <nibsa1242> sleepy_cat: right now I'm in /

[04:55] <sleepy_cat> do you see 2 folders
[04:55] <sleepy_cat> files and something
[04:55] <NWAdawg> DefunctProcess: only thing I'm running is the menu applet, use tint2 for rest of panel
[04:55] <donavan> soreau:  if it is ... lshw?   or something .... what about if its not ... I need to find out if my tvcard drivers actually installed
[04:55] <sleepy_cat> files and info
[04:55] <sleepy_cat> if i am not mistaken
[04:55] <Pici> !enter
[04:55] <wolter_> join ##c++
[04:56] <DefunctProcess> NWAdawg, yea mine is 0.3.99-1 and i have everything but th emenu
[04:56] <sleepy_cat> then enter the files folder and do ls -a or ls -ls or ls -l
[04:56] <soreau> donavan: They're probably installed, you just have to make sure they're loaded. The output of 'lsmod' will show you all modules loaded and you can grep for the driver name
[04:56] <sleepy_cat> nibsa1242: and tell me if there are any files/folders out there then i'll tell you how to proceed
[04:57] <tsg> Hi need some help. I cannot get my touchscreen to run
[04:57] <antonia-laptop>  hey guys, i just upgraded to 8.10 and my computer wont shutdown and the hardware manager will not enable fglrx
[04:57] <RukusX> hey everyhone!
[04:57] <RukusX> errr
[04:57] <RukusX> everyone
[04:58] <wolter_> !hi | RukusX
[04:58] <nibsa1242> antonia-laptop: try sudo shutdown -r now  to see if it'll restart
[04:58] <sleepy_cat> nibsa1242: uhh are you seeing anything out there in the terminal
[04:58] <RukusX> Why would i want to choose Xvideo or OpenGL or X11 as video output in VLC (or other apps) ? what are my benefits? i cant find a definitive answer!
[04:58] <wolter> antonia-laptop, do that, and why do you speak at the same time, and with the same messages, as tsg ?
[04:59] <wolter> RukusX, what else would you choose?
[04:59] <Miyavix3> Hey, can you view windows files while using Ubuntu?
[04:59] <kurrata> Miyavix3:  yes
[04:59] <wolter> RukusX, are you putting those as options?
[04:59] <wolter> OpenGL
[04:59] <RukusX> ya
[04:59] <nibsa1242> sleepy_cat: yeah, I'm good, that was the correct directory... I'm removing the directorys & files manually since right clicking the trash and emptying it didn't work
[04:59] <donavan> soreau ... yeah checked that and it looks right ... just wasnt sure if there was another way I was missing ... thanks
[04:59] <Miyavix3> kurrata: Where is it?
[04:59] <wolter> RukusX, opengl is more widely used.
[04:59] <RukusX> wolter, i am actually more curious what the differences are, and what one is best to use
[05:00] <wolter> RukusX, why not give it a google?
[05:00] <terry3> hey everybody, im havin some trouble with flash in 81.0 64-bit
[05:00] <antonia-laptop> nibsa1242: i've been shutting down with sudo reboot so i'm assuming the shutdown -r now will work ass well, its when i go and try to shutdown through the menus that it doesnt do anything
[05:00] <sleepy_cat> nibsa1242: ok.. i got a suggestion when u remove many files it becomes a hectic thing retyping the path etc ... why dont you try sudo rm *
[05:00] <GreedyB> hello I'm using Xubuntu and I'm having a heck of a time connecting to my other computers... used to be easy in ubuntu but i'm sort of lost with Xubuntu
[05:00] <sleepy_cat> in one like everything will get removed
[05:00] <terry3> everything works, but I cant get into the settings menu of flash. I right click a flash applet, click settings, and nothing happens
[05:00] <sleepy_cat> line*
[05:00] <terry3> the dialogue box just disappears
[05:00] <RukusX> wolter i have tried, i cant seem to google it well enough to get any answers
[05:00] <kurrata> Miyavix3:  when you run nautilus on left side "places" it should show hard drive(s) in 1 of those is your windows
[05:00] <crdlb> RukusX: XVideo is the best choice unless your video driver has a poor implementation
[05:01] <nibsa1242> sleepy_cat: I'm just in the directory of the file... and you can press the up arrow to scroll through previous commands so there isn't much retyping
[05:01] <sean_aus> crimsun
[05:01] <cjs> Hm. Anybody know anything about gnome-settings-daemon?
[05:01] <RukusX> crdlb, really? then why all the openGL hype? is it because of eye candy and compiz maybe?
[05:01] <kurrata> i have 2 hd 1 sata(ubuntu) and pata(win xp) when i try to launch windows with grub it hangs showing "staring" on screen.Any ideas how to solve this? windows loads normaly when i set pata as master.
[05:01] <sean_aus> crimsun: did it break ur system?
[05:02] <SilentDis> hello, I'm trying to get firestarter to configure my DHCP server for internet connection sharing, but it stays grayed out.  I have installed dhcp3-server.  when the server starts, though, it fails, because 'no interfaces are available', thus firestarter isn't able to set it up.  what am i doing wrong?
[05:02] <wolter> RukusX, here is something about the xvideo
[05:02] <wolter> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_video_extension
[05:02] <wolter> i would recommend you to wiki all of them
[05:02] <nibsa1242> sleepy_cat: alright, well all 20GB of stuff in my trash folder is finally removed thanks so much...
[05:02] <crdlb> RukusX: OpenGL is lovely, but that doesn't mean you need to use it for video playback
[05:02] <sleepy_cat> nibsa1242:  ok if thats your preference.. I was just saving your time with that cmd..
[05:02] <RukusX> what makes it lovely? i am concerned over video quality.
[05:02] <sleepy_cat> nibsa1242:  happy to help :)
[05:03] <sean_aus> crimsun: thanks.. im currently upgrading to the 4.. update in progress..
[05:03] <crdlb> RukusX: XVideo is a protocol designed specifically for video playback
[05:03] <RukusX> i see
[05:03] <nibsa1242> kurrata: Windows needs to think that its boot drive is the master. I think there is a way to tell grub to tell windows that it is the master so that it works ok
[05:03] <Shoopuf> Anybody use the php-geshi package? My PHP is having a hard time finding the include_once geshi.php
[05:03] <SilentDis> kurrata: I've seen this.  windows gets 'picky' if it's not the pirmary server.  you have to futz with grub a bit to 'mask' so windows appears to be the first drive.  I cannot for the life of me remember exactly how it's done, but I'm pretty sure it's on the !grub info page.
[05:03] <sleepy_cat> the code i was talking was "rm *" make a note of it so that in future when u meet such problems u can save ur time with this code
[05:03] <SilentDis> !grub | kurrata
[05:04] <SilentDis> !firestarter
[05:04] <RukusX> wait it think i get it, if i think of opengel correctly, it relies alot on CPU power, and Xvideo by the looks of it can make use of your video  hardware
[05:04] <wolter> steve198424, so what is your final decision?
[05:04] <kurrata> SilentDis:  k, will read that stuff
[05:04] <sathorned> how can i get the sony gc1 net sharing cam to work
[05:04] <nibsa1242> kurrata: you need to use the map command in your menu.lst file for grub
[05:04] <wolter> steve198424, there are also some things modified in the gui that you may dislike.
[05:04] <steve198424> its me i was talking on pidgen before lol
[05:04] <RukusX> thanks guys for the help, i think i'm all good now.
[05:05] <kurrata> nibsa1242:  used map already ;)
[05:05] <dummyhead3> is pidgin bad?
[05:05] <wolter> like the sound preferences. They are a lot more simple, but therefore less customizable
[05:05] <steve198424> dislike??/ like what ??
[05:05] <wolter> dummyhead3, its not very good for irc.
[05:05] <nibsa1242> kurrata: then that should work... did you remember to update-grub after changing your menu.lst?
[05:05] <terry3> anybody here good with flash 10?
[05:05] <terry3> i cant get into the settings menu
[05:05] <dummyhead3> wolter, wich client would you reccomend?
[05:05] <kurrata> nibsa1242:  what do you mean by update?
[05:06] <SilentDis> hello, I'm trying to get firestarter to configure my DHCP server for internet connection sharing, but it stays grayed out.  I have installed dhcp3-server.  when the server starts, though, it fails, because 'no interfaces are available', thus firestarter isn't able to set it up.  what am i doing wrong?
[05:06] <wolter> dummyhead3, i use xchat.
[05:06] <nibsa1242> kurrata: what does the windows section of your menu.lst file look like?
[05:06] <dummyhead3> ok thnx
[05:06] <obf213> hey, my computer is connecting to network but i dont get internet allthought i know internet is working.    when i first connect systemmonitor shows I send like 100kb and recieve like 60, but for like 2 seconds, then everything else is just a few hundred bytes and the internet doesn't work.
[05:06] <tsg> brb
[05:06] <wolter> steve198424, some other stuff i don't remember also may cause dislike to you.
[05:06] <nibsa1242> kurrata: after you change the menu.lst file you have to run the command "update-grub" to actually update grub
[05:07] <dummyhead3> brb with xchat!
[05:07] <wolter> lol
[05:07] <wolter> nice
[05:08] <nibsa1242> kurrata: you still there?
[05:08] <wolter> RukusX, found out something interesting?
[05:08] <steve198424> obf213, ????
[05:08] <obf213> steve198424: yeah? u 've got some ideas mate?
[05:09] <RukusX> wolter and crdlb, the conclusion i have come to is, Xvideo makes use of your video hardware controllers, thus relying less on your CPU power, whereas OpenGL relies on your CPU to process video streams, putting a strain on your CPU and not making any use of video hardware controllers
[05:09] <csc_> is there a way to start an x application on the ***remote*** display? (no x forwarding): something like "ssh remoteuser@remotemachine xclock" where xlock starts on the display defined in remotemachine
[05:09] <kurrata> nibsa1242:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/94819/
[05:09] <wolter> RukusX, really? interesting...
[05:09] <neher> Can someone help me with a problem I am having with my systems Suspend function?  I've tried the forums, and been here a few times, but no one has helped me, that is, no one has taken my case.
[05:09] <bin10101> hey guys I want to open a terminal at boot/reboot and run a program in it automatically.  I want to run it in the terminal because it needs babysitting from time to time.  Is there a way to do this?
[05:09] <miyavi> So uh, how do I view files from my windows from ubuntu? I installed ubuntu inside of windows... I dunno if it has anything to do with it.
[05:09] <cjs> Can anybody here tell me how to get rid of nautilus. All my old 8.04 session information appears to be ignored in 8.10.
[05:10] <rainabba> Running Hardy 8.04 with nVidia GTX 260 and my drivers seem to have gone to the dump. Not sure what I changed, but after installing the nVidia binary package (.run one from their site), things were working. I did a reboot for something else and now gnome comes up in "low resolution" mode. I tried running the installer again, then nvidia-xconfig. No luck. xorg.conf shows that I'm running 'nvidia' driver, but when I run nvidia-settings, it says
[05:10] <cjs> Or, failing that, can someone tell me where I should go for support on gnome session management issues?
[05:10] <RukusX> wolter as  well, Xvideo makes use of other hardware accellerated features of your graphics card, like motion compensation, and overlays,
[05:10] <nibsa1242> kurrata: ok, what you need to do is follow directions from: http://blog.firetree.net/2005/08/26/duel-boot-windows-with-grub/  pay attention to the map part under the windows entry
[05:10] <wolter> Very useful information, RukusX.
[05:10] <kurrata> nibsa1242:  k
[05:10] <dummyhead3> #ubuntu
[05:11] <dxdt> How can I get the version number of pkg not yet installed with Aptituted?  For example if I want to check the version number of Liferea in the repos?
[05:11] <RukusX> wolter whereas, if you wanted to do ANYTHING that your video controller could do using OpenGL, not Xvideo, it would rely solely on your CPU
[05:11] <wolter> RukusX, are you sure about that? Paste the source please.
[05:11] <nibsa1242> kurrata: that tricks windows into thinking its the master drive so it'll boot property... if it doesn't think its the master it refuses to boot
[05:11] <RukusX> you gave me the source
[05:11] <yitz_> Hi. What packages do I need to play Shockwave files in Firefox, eg http://www.isketch.net/i2.html
[05:11] <wolter> OpenGL is a very widely used graphics library (GL).
[05:11] <obf213> yesterday or so, my computer internet stopped working on my computer, on multiple networks, i connect to network but no internet. anybody have any ideas
[05:12] <wolter> I'll check it then.
[05:12] <kurrata> nibsa1242:  yea, reading it now will try it
[05:12] <nedwell> If anyone is familiar with using SSH as a SOCKS proxy, how can I create a user on my server (Ubuntu 8.10) that I can login to, but has ABSOLUTELY NO terminal access or ability to do anything except for use the proxy?  Thanks!
[05:12] <RukusX> and i know OpenGL relies on CPU from past experiences
[05:12] <jtaji> dxdt: apt-cache policy packagename
[05:12] <miyavi> Um... How do I view my windows files? It's not in my places...
[05:12] <jtaji> dxdt: or aptitude show packagename
[05:12] <nibsa1242> kurrata: Ok good. I dual boot, thats how I have mine setup, and it works flawlessly... I've got to go hope that helped.
[05:12] <dxdt> jtaji: Thanks very much
[05:13] <steve198424> im able to view all of my windows files on my linux no problem
[05:13] <yitz_> miyavi: Install ntfs-3g
[05:13] <wolter> RukusX, the keyword is "lack" in "the lack of an OpenGL Framebuffer Object or pbuffer, the use of an OpenGL environment like XGL makes xv hardware accelerations impossible."
[05:13] <miyavi> I don't know where to go to view them
[05:13] <dummyhead3> yitz, to use Shockwave, you need to install firefox with wine and then install shockwave
[05:13] <neher> yitz: Shockwave is not really supported.  You  can run it in Wine.  I reccomend you just do a google or two.
[05:13] <antonia-laptop> brb
[05:13] <yitz_> Thanks
[05:14] <enerya> nedwell - how do you run that proxy if you have such a user?
[05:14] <bin10101> all I can find is crontab or rc.d but I really need this program to run in a normal window with sudo privs.  Unfortunately it has a lot of output and needs to be babysat from time to time.  any ideas on how to get around this?
[05:14] <miyavi> yitz_ now what?
[05:14] <enerya> bin10101 - look around /etc/network/ifup.d or ifdown.d
[05:15] <RukusX> wolter so what you are saying is, there is no OpenGL hardware acceleration?
[05:15] <nedwell> enerya: openssh should run it by itself, right?  Then I can just plink(windows) into it using that username for proxy access.  I just don't want that to be accessible via putty (windows) for direct terminal access.
[05:15] <jabagawee> how can i check what groups a user is in?
[05:15] <jabagawee> via command line
[05:15] <wolter> RukusX, I am actually saying the opposite of that.
[05:15] <Flannel> jabagawee: "groups username"
[05:15] <yitz_> miyavi: Usage:    ntfs-3g <device|image_file> <mount_point> [-o option[,...]]
[05:15] <jabagawee> Flannel, and who says the command line isnt intuitive?
[05:16] <Flannel> jabagawee: No one I know ;)
[05:16] <jabagawee> also, how do you add yourself to groups that you're not in?
[05:16] <Flannel> jabagawee: adduser user group
[05:16] <wolter> RukusX, the lack of a framebuffer, that I imagine that it is some sort of wierd thing, makes OpenGL hardware acceleration imposible, whereas the presence of it, makes it totally possible.
[05:16] <enerya> nedwell - i am not 100% sure, but look in /etc/passwd if you can run ssh at login
[05:16] <jabagawee> Flannel, again, duh.
[05:16] <Boohbah> jabagawee: groupadd
[05:17] <nedwell> thanks
[05:17] <Boohbah> jabagawee: sorry, not groupadd, that's for adding groups
[05:17] <RukusX> wolter well i won;t argue with you, i just honestly dont understand enough to. haha
[05:17] <jabagawee> Flannel, apparently, adduser didnt work
[05:17] <Flannel> jabagawee: you'll need to use sudo.  sudo adduser user group
[05:17] <Flannel> jabagawee: And changes won't take affect until you log in again
[05:17] <Flannel> (if that user is currently logged in)
[05:18] <jabagawee> ah
[05:18] <bin10101> enerya: not following, those dont run in viewable terminal...do they?  am I missing something?
[05:19] <wolter> RukusX, ah that's ok haha. I just didn't want to defame OpenGl.
[05:19] <enerya> bin10101 - try it, put a script there that requires a terminal or console
[05:19] <narzy> need some samba help
[05:19] <narzy> can't connect to a share
[05:19] <RukusX> wolter, ya it has more uses than i ever imagined
[05:19] <RukusX> well.
[05:19] <RukusX> atleast 1 or 2
[05:20] <narzy> it shows up in the network but when you go to connect it asks for a UN/PW and nothing works to get past it
[05:20] <RukusX> i used to be a windows user, gaming on DirectX
[05:20] <wolter> RukusX, I was one of those as well hehe.
[05:20] <RukusX> i never thought much about OpenGL until Ubuntu and compiz
[05:20] <narzy> I have  a basic config file that should work I can connect to the smb server via the cli on a remote mac
[05:20] <wolter> I used to admire DirectX, now I realize that it is one of those Windows-only nasty products.
[05:21] <enerya> narzy - type  smb  and press tab twice to see all the cli for smb
[05:21] <wolter> It works well, indeed. But it is egotistic from Windows to keep it to theirselves.
[05:21] <RukusX> i suppose if DirectX was opensource maybe this would be a different conversation perhaps?
[05:21] <RukusX> lol
[05:21] <Fezzler> I'm running a Ruby_GNOME2 tutorial app that will not "quit".  How do I kill a program process via command line?
[05:21] <wolter> Also, OpenGL works much better.,
[05:21] <narzy> enerya:
[05:21] <narzy> I've done that
[05:21] <bin10101> ok...thanks.
[05:21] <enerya> narzy now its time to read its man pages, i dont recall all the options or how to use those
[05:22] <narzy> I've tried to connect, it should work, but its like a permissions issue
[05:22] <RukusX> wolter, thanks for the input. What i have gathered tho, is that in my case, Xvideo will work much better for me.
[05:23] <IcemanV9> Fezzler: pkill -9 <app name or pid>
[05:23] <wolter> RukusX, why is that?
[05:23] <eseven73> Fezzler: you could try 'ps aux | grep Ruby*' and find its process #  then do what IcemanV9 said
[05:23] <incadudeF> hello anyone currently have unreal tournament GOTY running on their ubuntu 8.10 machine
[05:24] <RukusX> wolter, i'm pretty sure it makes more use of my hardware accelleration, than opengl does
[05:24] <RukusX> or am i wrong
[05:24] <neher> Would someone tell me, are there any real advantatges to using KDE instead of GNOME?  As in, if I use Kubuntu (or setup KDE), is it really worthwhile?
[05:24] <incadudeF> i keep getting this message: Warning: Failed to load 'Entry': Can't find file 'Entry'
[05:24] <incadudeF> Warning: Failed to load 'Level None.MyLevel': Can't find file 'Entry'
[05:24] <incadudeF> Critical: appError called:
[05:24] <incadudeF> Critical: Failed to enter Entry: Can't find file 'Entry'
[05:24] <wolter> Oh well, I don't know, I think you may be.
[05:24] <FloodBot3> incadudeF: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:24] <incadudeF> woops sorry
[05:24] <Boohbah> incadudeF: it's not helpful to paste error messages in the channel :)
[05:25] <RukusX> neher, underneath them both is the same debian based operating system. no advantaged either way, install both try both, you'll like both or one or the other. they both run the same applications
[05:25] <neher> RukusX: is it just that KDE is prettier, or more customizable or what?
[05:25] <eseven73> more prettier
[05:26] <obf213> yo, can anyone help me with this. been using intrepid since its officialy release, yesterday i turn on my computer and i don't get internet even though i can connect to all networks, and get an ip and stuff. please help
[05:26] <RukusX> wolter, maybe you have something else to tell me, that i am not quite understanding about openGL
[05:26] <RukusX> and Xvideo
[05:26] <Fezzler> No go.  helloworld.rb still running.  Am I pkill-ing Ruby or the *.rb file?
[05:26] <eseven73> sudo kill -9 helloworld.rb' shoudl do it
[05:26] <Boohbah> Fezzler: maybe 'kill -9 $PID'
[05:27] <SAThorned> how can i get my sony gc1 net sharing cam to work
[05:27] <eseven73> should*
[05:27] <wolter> RukusX, Well I think you just simply underestimate OpenGL's power.
[05:27] <Fezzler> 1000      9595  0.0  0.1   3004   772 pts/0    S+   00:26   0:00 grep Ruby*
[05:27] <incadudeF> is there an ubuntu gaming IRC channel?
[05:27] <RukusX> neher, i honestly don't know, i dont like KDE its too flashy, i like simple. gnome is fairly simple, also KDE didn't work well for me on my system
[05:27] <Cheaterman_> I'd like to broadcast a livemix to a friend. Does anyone know how to make mplayer listen on the port 8080, waiting for connections ?
[05:28] <wolter> RukusX, XVideo can also be used to accelerate video playback during the drawing of windows using an OpenGL Framebuffer Object or pbuffer.
[05:28] <neher> RukusX: this system is pretty light in the loafers, so It's probably better if I avoid the flash
[05:28] <eseven73> Fezzler: type 'top' in terminal and find that .rb file's pid # then kill it's pid #
[05:28] <wolter> Oh, I missed quotes.
[05:28] <Boohbah> obf213: can you ping your default gateway? do you have nameservers listed in /etc/resolv.conf ?
[05:28] <wolter> RukusX, that explains that if it was not for OpenGl, Xv would have no hardware acceleration.
[05:28] <RukusX> wolter, perhaps i do. i wouldn't underestimate its possibilities, never. i'm just looking at it from a performance angle.... i'm convinced that OpenGL will not make use of my hardware acceleration.
[05:28] <maximilian-schro> !de
[05:28] <wolter> Xv uses OpenGL.
[05:28] <eseven73> Fezzler: might be easier to use htop (its nicer than top) but you have to install it :)
[05:29] <wolter> RukusX, why?
[05:29] <Lakota> cant get GPS-500 sirf III to work threw latest version of virtual box xp guest with addons and usb enabled
[05:29] <obf213> !kubuntu
[05:29] <RukusX> wolter, because i dont understand enough
[05:29] <wolter> RukusX, I showed you a quote that contradicted your opinion.
[05:29] <RukusX> yah
[05:30] <adityahaha> you bitch
[05:30] <eseven73> O.o
[05:30] <RukusX> wolter, i'm just terribly lost.  i just like the simple and straight forward answer that is going to work best for me.
[05:30] <wolter> RukusX, well, keep in mind that Xvideo uses OpenGL to enable Hardware acceleration, in more human terms, OpenGL is Xvideo's daddy.
[05:30] <RukusX> wolter that opens up a new door of understanding for me
[05:30] <RukusX> lol
[05:30] <^Neil^> perl update broke my scripts?
[05:30] <wolter> I supposed haha.
[05:30] <RukusX> also puts me back on square one
[05:30] <^Neil^> happened to anyone else?
[05:31] <RukusX> wolter, you just un-engineered my answer for me. Now i'm not sure again which video output is better for me, OpenGL or Xvideo. lol i just want best perofrmance and quality
[05:32] <wolter> RukusX, I'd tell you to go for OpenGL.
[05:32] <RukusX> i was always feeling that i should
[05:32] <wolter> I really don't know anything about Xvideo, but from what I have read, OpenGL is the father of Xv.
[05:33] <maximilian-schro> hi. i have a question about my home directory. i moved it to a second hard drive/partition. i added it to the fstab file and it seems to work fine after rebooting but how do i remove/delete the old folders? where do find them? :S
[05:33] <wolter> RukusX, anyway, you should not be worried about that, I don't think you will notice a difference, unless you have a low-end graphics card.
[05:33] <wolter> RukusX, which graphics card do you posses?
[05:33] <RukusX> wolter well if i think back to what i have learnt about compiz, etc... its uses OpenGL correct? and it would not run properly on my computer until i enabled hardware acceleration and Direct Rendering
[05:34] <Fezzler> thanks got it
[05:34] <eseven73> :)
[05:34] <RukusX> so if OpenGL makes no use of hardware accerlaration, then what the heck was that?
[05:34] <RukusX> lol
[05:34] <ov3rfl0w> Hi
[05:34] <RukusX> i have a intel 915gm i think
[05:34] <RukusX> its 915 at least
[05:35] <jtaji> maximilian-schro: if you do 'sudo mount --bind / /mnt' your original home contents will be at /mnt/home and you delete them with 'sudo rm -rf /mnt/home/*' then unmount again with 'sudo umount /mnt'
[05:35] <RukusX> i know on my windows theatre machine,  i had better performance when i enabled hardware acceleration
[05:35] <RukusX> obviously
[05:35] <wolter> RukusX, it does.
[05:35] <ov3rfl0w> I got some problems with the alsa-tools package. I've just download using the wget. But I can't install it.
[05:36] <RukusX> so, i was concerned that  by using the wrong output i was not making use of hardware accelleration, but mabe i am confused about this on a codec level and not an output level
[05:36] <wolter> RukusX, OpenGL uses hware accel
[05:36] <jtaji> maximilian-schro: note that the empty /home needs to remain on the / disk to be used as the mount point, so delete the contents, not the directory itself
[05:36] <RukusX> i have noticed  linux works alot on function, not feature
[05:36] <rainabba> Anyone else here running the GTX 260/280? Having any trouble?
[05:37] <wolter> RukusX, I do not recognize your graphics card. What games did you use to play on Windows?
[05:37] <ov3rfl0w> It just appears ./ac3dec and ./gitcompile: 3: aclocal: not found
[05:37] <RukusX> wolter, bottom line, then WHY give me the choice of Xvideo or OpenGL if there is no difference?
[05:37] <demdem> I was wondering if anyone could tell me why I keep getting 'could not access the cd' when trying to install to a slave drive?
[05:37] <narzy> how do I release / renew my ip address via cli
[05:37] <RukusX> wolter, i never used this computer on windows
[05:37] <wolter> RukusX, as I told you, I ignore most of the information describing Xvideo. But if Xvideo itself uses OpenGL, then I'd take a wild guess and say that OpenGL is better.
[05:37] <enerya> narzy - dhclient eth0
[05:38] <soreau> RukusX: You've been on the longest troll rant I've seen in awhile now
[05:38] <RukusX> lol
[05:38] <wolter> To all of that you may feed yourself from one only thing: OpenGL uses hardware acceleration.
[05:38] <RukusX> i'm just trying to understand
[05:38] <wolter> soreau, is learning sinning?
[05:38] <RukusX> soreau, just trying to understand
[05:38] <RukusX> that wolter
[05:38] <RukusX> errr
[05:38] <RukusX> thanks wolter
[05:38] <wolter> ah no problem.
[05:38] <joeb3_> ov3rfl0w, I think aclocal is in the automake package
[05:39] <Lakota> I have GPS-500 sirf III pharos and cant get it to work threw virtula box guest xp with all addons  and is latest versions of Ubuntu and Vbox and usb is turned on in Vbox settings,  im trying to make xp see the gps for maping
[05:39] <wolter> But tell me, which games did you use to play?
[05:39] <soreau> wolter: I was just being observant
[05:39] <narzy> nice!
[05:39] <RukusX> i wasnt ranting about anything
[05:39] <narzy> thanks
[05:39] <soreau> Trolling is not sinning, but it's easier to learn by reading
[05:39] <ov3rfl0w> joeb3_, I have already resolve my problem.
[05:39] <wolter> soreau, ah ok, I thought you were discretely shushing him.
[05:39] <ov3rfl0w> Thanks.
[05:39] <demdem> would anyone happen to know how to install ubuntu to a slave drive inside of windows or be able to point me to a tutorial?
[05:40] <demdem> trying to avoid making another partition on the master drive
[05:40] <RukusX> soreau, i tried reading, but i didnt know what i was reading or where to begin, and whatever i had was obviously the wrong road. i do not regret my "troll rant" as much as it maybe have annoyed you, i am sorry.
[05:42] <jjt009> hey guys what's the command to go through all the terminal commands you've run?
[05:42] <soreau> RukusX: It's no problem http://www.phoronix.com/forums/showthread.php?t=7588
[05:42] <jjt009> search through all of them
[05:42] <joeb3_> jjt009, history or use the up arrow
[05:42] <soreau> RukusX: Many users have similar questions when learning about video rendering methods
[05:43] <IcemanV9> demdem: sudo fdisk -l (will show you two drives ... in my case, sda & sdb)
[05:43] <empiric> any one knows any good open source Document managemet system
[05:43] <jjt009> joeb3_: hmm...that seems to be leaving out some commands i ran recently
[05:43] <ov3rfl0w> There is a form to redetect my sound card? I've just know that I did not have the alsaconf.
[05:44] <jjt009> joeb3_: does the terminal window in which the command was executed matter?
[05:44] <joeb3_> jjt009, did you run all the commands in the same terminal window?  If not, you'll have to close it.
[05:44] <kiall> QQ - I'm looking for a simple screen magnifier to go with the gnome screen ruler - I'm a web developer, and quite often need to take pixel perfect measurements off design flats - I just cant seem to find something that doesnt require turning all the assistive tech stuff on... any suggestions?
[05:44] <jjt009> joeb3_: nope -- this is a command i ran a few days ago, in another login
[05:44] <demdem> IcemanV9 thanks
[05:45] <italk> hi
[05:46] <jjt009> joeb3_: what do you mean by 'close it'?
[05:46] <jjt009> joeb3_: how do i consolidate all of the commands from different windows
[05:46] <joeb3_> jjt009, close the other term so it writes to your history file.  The reopen anothe term.
[05:46] <Lakota> I have GPS-500 sirf III pharos and cant get it to work threw virtula box guest xp with all addons  and is latest versions of Ubuntu and Vbox and usb is turned on in Vbox settings,  im trying to make xp see the gps for maping
[05:47] <joeb3_> jjt009, if you are using bash, look at ~/.bash_history.  This is the file that stores all the commands.
[05:47] <jjt009> ok thanks
[05:47] <sirstan> Does ubuntu 8.10 still excessively spindown hds?
[05:47] <jjt009> yeah i tried closing everything
[05:47] <RukusX> Update: on my system Xvideo uses less CPU than OpenGL.
[05:48] <soreau> RukusX: \o/
[05:48] <RukusX> lol
[05:48] <ik> wtf
[05:48] <tritium> ik: watch the language, please
[05:48] <ik> language?
[05:48] <jjt009> he means perl
[05:48] <ik> Where?
[05:49] <tritium> ik: even foul acronyms.  Please keep it family friendly.
[05:49] <Paddy_EIRE> ik, masked profanity is still profanity
[05:49] <jjt009> yeah i'm 90 years old guys
[05:49] <ik> tritium: oh.  That seems idiotic.
[05:49] <Paddy_EIRE> !wtf | ik
[05:49] <italk> n1993r
[05:49] <tritium> ik: People of all ages use this support channel.
[05:49] <sirstan> Can I upgrade to Jaunty from 8.10 easily?
[05:49] <Flannel> sirstan: Yes, but Jaunty isn't stable yet.
[05:50] <sirstan> Flannel, how might one do that?
[05:50] <ik> tritium: i see.
[05:50] <ik> tritium: you shouldn't tell them what 'wtf' means.
[05:50] <tritium> ik: I already told you not to use that.  Stop.
[05:50] <ik> tritium: If they already know, it seems like they've heard the 'f' word before.
[05:50] <ik> What's the point?
[05:50] <tritium> ik: last warning.
[05:50] <Paddy_EIRE> ik, sont be such a troll please
[05:50] <sirstan> ik: please take it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:51] <Paddy_EIRE> *dont
[05:51] <Flannel> sirstan: #ubuntu+1 is the place for Jaunty support, they should have instructions in teh topic (along with anything else you may need to know while doing it)
[05:51] <ik> *shrug*
[05:51] <ik> assinine, but ok
[05:51] <sirstan> Flannel: update-manager -d would have sufficed as well.
[05:51] <eseven73> kids :/
[05:51] <Flannel> sirstan: Except there may be other things you need to know.  Jaunty isn't stable; it's alpha software, etc.
[05:51] <ik> *sorry, I meant 'asinine'
[05:52] <sirstan> Flannel: arguably -- ubuntu is debian *unstable* :)
[05:52] <Paddy_EIRE> sirstan, a thank you would have been prefered for Flannel rather than  criticising
[05:52] <Flannel> sirstan: no, when they're being developed, stability literally is day-to-day sometimes.  It's not meant for regular human consumption
[05:53] <sirstan> Flannel: thanks.  I just wanted to know how to do it.  Jaunty fixes a SUPER Annoying bug for me... I will gladly deal with issues.
[05:54] <sirstan> !lancelot
[05:55] <Lakota> is this only ubuntu support channel ?
[05:55] <eseven73> sirstan: do /msg ubottu <command> if you're unsure if it's a factoid or not

[05:59] <erisco> I have no idea what I did, but parts of my display are very blurry
[05:59] <erisco> what could possibly cause this?
[05:59] <Lakota> tried looking with google in forums but no luck,   not mad just still trieng
[05:59] <erisco> has something happened to my monitor?
[06:00] <soreau> erisco: Are you using compiz effects by chance?
[06:00] <erisco> no
[06:00] <soreau> erisco: Are you able to provide an accurate screenshot of your issue?
[06:00] <erisco> I just turned on my computer for a few minutes and just now noticed that parts are very blurry
[06:00] <chimbeperro> hi
[06:00] <chimbeperro> i got a question
[06:00] <eseven73> just ask
[06:00] <erisco> soreau, no, I don't have a camera or anything that'd pick it up
[06:00] <chimbeperro> what is the best linux to install asterisk
[06:01] <sirstan> !ask | chimberperro
[06:01] <erisco> I've tried restarting and using the auto adjust on my monitor several times
[06:01] <tysin> what is the package name for a mail server?
[06:01] <sirstan> chimberperro: whichever you are most familure with.
[06:01] <soreau> erisco: So it's actually a hardware problem? Something is wrong with your monitor?
[06:01] <erisco> soreau, I don't know
[06:01] <sirstan> tysin: sendmail? exim4?
[06:01] <soreau> erisco: Then take a screenshot and see
[06:01] <tysin> i tried exim4 its not liking me
[06:01] <natnayr89> help pls, i got error SYSLINUX  - COuld not find kernal image: Linux
[06:01] <sirstan> tysin: how is it "not liking" you
[06:01] <erisco> soreau, what do you mean take a screenshot? how do I see?
[06:01] <Lakota> has anyone ever tried to get gps in ubuntu VBOX XP guest?
[06:02] <tysin> cant receive or send
[06:02] <chimbeperro> thanks
[06:02] <sirstan> Lakota: this isnt entirely the place for that question.
[06:02] <Lakota> ok
[06:02] <joeb3_> tysin, postfix or sendmail
[06:02] <soreau> erisco: You don't need a camera to take a screenshot, use Applications>Accessories>Take a Screenshot
[06:02] <sirstan> tysin: exim4 is a fine mta.. just configure it correctly.
[06:02] <I3lade> Hey, I was in here the other day with a graphics card issue, that's all fixed and stuff now, but I have these horizontal lines that move up my screen now, I'm not sure what it is, but if I had to venture a guess, I think it has something to do with the refresh rate... can someone help me?
[06:02] <erisco> soreau, but what does this tell me?
[06:02] <Lakota> dont know where els to ask it?
[06:02] <donavan> anyone know why I can't get my tv card to find channels when it scans
[06:02] <erisco> soreau, I don't have any other screen
[06:02] <sirstan> Lakota: vbox support forum/channel?
[06:02] <chilli0> hi all
[06:02] <Lakota> is there one
[06:03] <soreau> erisco: It tells you whether or not it's a problem with your screen or if your screen is being rendered this way by your system
[06:03] <chilli0> how can i see all the details on my wireless card? is there a command to see
[06:03] <eseven73> !away > keres`zZz
[06:03] <erisco> originally some of the colours were distorted and a lot of the whites were blown out
[06:03] <sirstan> chillio0: iwconfig
[06:03] <erisco> now things are just blurry in parts
[06:03] <natnayr89> hi, im having a problem, i get this error when i try to boot windows "LINUX 3.53 Debian - 2007-12-11 EBIOS Copyright (c) 1994-2007 H.Peter Anvin. Could not find kernel image: Linux

[06:04] <mike-ekim> I am having an error with apache2 starting, saying "address already in use: make_sock: cannot bind to <IP_ADDRESS>:443, no listening sockets available"
[06:04] <mike-ekim> any ideas
[06:04] <Paddy_EIRE> natnayr89, you have already repeated that question about 3 times in the last 5 mins
[06:04] <tysin> ok well im not having any luck configuring it
[06:04] <erisco> soreau, but I don't have any other screen to look at
[06:04] <Paddy_EIRE> natnayr89, hang back a while
[06:04] <sirstan> make-ekim: that means something is already bound to port 443.
[06:04] <natnayr89> Paddy_EIRE: sry, no responds to an urgent matter
[06:04] <I3lade> The lines never appeared BEFORE I switched to this computer, and it's the same monitor, I've messed with the refresh rate, and it hasn't changed anything... I'm out of ideas
[06:04] <mike-ekim> sirstan: i ran netstat and found no process
[06:05] <mike-ekim> nothing is utilizing tcp/443
[06:05] <Paddy_EIRE> natnayr89, sorry but everyone is just as urgent in here.. patience is not optional :)
[06:05] <soreau> erisco: You need to understand, that when you take a screenshot, you can then upload it to a site like picpaste.com for us to view on our known working good monitors
[06:05] <sirstan> mike-ekim: apache seemingly disagrees with your assertion
[06:05] <natnayr89> Paddy_EIRE: sry sry
[06:05] <mike-ekim> lol
[06:05] <chilli0> sirstan: thanks , but i need info on my card not on the connection
[06:05] <mike-ekim> well anything I can check that you might know
[06:05] <mike-ekim> i see nothing in /var/log/syslog, or messages
[06:05] <sirstan> chillio0: thats waht iwconfig does.
[06:06] <venger> anyone use postfix+maildrop and get /usr/bin/maildrop: Unable to change to home directory for mail addressed to root?
[06:06] <racarter> how do i install kunbuntu but still keep gdm?
[06:06] <chilli0> sirstan:  yes , but how do i see the card details
[06:06] <Paddy_EIRE> racarter, dont choose kdm when it asks
[06:06] <racarter> i'm already running normal ubuntu btw
[06:06] <erisco> soreau, it is happening in patches
[06:06] <racarter> ok
[06:06] <tysin> anyone able to help me troubleshoot my mailserver?
[06:06] <racarter> how do you switch desktop managers though
[06:06] <racarter> ?
[06:06] <erisco> soreau, if I drag a window around I can almost pinpoint where the blurry spot is
[06:06] <sirstan> chillio0: can you elaborate.
[06:06] <I3lade> I see you guys are kind of busy, if you get around to my problem, just say my name, it'll flash on my screen. lol, looks like theres some way more serious issues at the moment.
[06:06] <Paddy_EIRE> racarter, sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[06:07] <bullgard4> What are 'rtnetlink messages'? (There is a manpage man rtnetlink but I do not understand its intention.)
[06:07] <soreau> erisco: Then it's a physical monitor issue.
[06:07] <chilli0> sirstan:  can u use chilli0 , and i need to see  my card details like what version and stuff is
[06:07] <racarter> no i mean, once you've installed everything.. then say you want to switch to gdm or kdm or whatever
[06:07] <erisco> soreau, it doesn't make any sense at all
[06:07] <sirstan> chilli0: what versions of what stuff?  i cant tell you how to get the info you want; if you cant tell me :D
[06:07] <racarter> bah i'll worry about that when it comes up i guess
[06:07] <soreau> erisco: This would mean it's not specific to ubuntu and thus you would need to ask in a hardware support channel or forum like #hardware
[06:08] <chilli0> sirstan:  i need to find out the source type and driver
[06:08] <dxdt> if you ./configure then make, shouldn't there be files to run before you do a make install?  I don't see any.  I'm confused
[06:08] <soreau> erisco: My small bit of advice is to use the 'Degauss' function for your monitor, provided it has that feature
[06:09] <racarter> does anyone ever stare at their terminal for long periods of time?
[06:09] <erisco> soreau, no, its an LCD... I do not believe they have such a thing
[06:09] <sirstan> chilli0: dmesg | grep Wire
[06:09] <racarter> does anyone ever keep hitting ls for no reason?
[06:09] <erisco> soreau, although I looked. its not discoloration
[06:09]  * sirstan nods @ racarter
[06:09] <erisco> soreau, anyways, thanks for the help, I will see what I can do
[06:09] <worldcitizen> recarter: yes I stared at terminal for 4 hours straight once
[06:09] <gralco> is there a package of wine that is ppc .deb?
[06:09] <racarter> does anyone ever stare at the compiz cube desktop spinner thing
[06:09] <chilli0> sirstan:  i did that but nothing showed up
[06:10] <sirstan> chilli0: dmesg | more .. look for when it detected your device..
[06:10] <racarter> ctrl+alt+left arrow key
[06:10] <Anacranom> !ot | racarter
[06:10] <tysin> sirstan or joeb3, i am not having luck with sendmail, can you help me?
[06:11] <sirstan> tysin: i might suggest you stick with one MTA, and learn to configure it.
[06:11] <tysin> yeah you could and you have, dually noted
[06:12] <racarter> the thing i miss most from mac os x when using linux are the keyboard shortcuts
[06:12] <chilli0> sirstan:  is going on for so long
[06:12] <racarter> i like the apple key
[06:12] <sirstan> chilli0: does your wireless work?
[06:12] <chilli0> sirstan:  yes it does im connected right now
[06:13] <sirstan> chilli0: kk.. then maybe your dmesg log is too long.. look at /var/log/dmesg
[06:13] <mike> mgobrien
[06:13] <racarter> i am installing kubuntu-desktop now
[06:13] <sirstan> chilli0: on my machine wireless was initialized @ ~40
[06:13] <racarter> i am worried that my computer will be full of apps that start with k now
[06:14] <chilli0> sirstan:  its a big file
[06:14] <lwizardl> anyone have experience with installing Maya 2008 on Ubuntu ?
[06:14] <tysin> sirstan, can you tell me if you can see a mail server @ my ip address?
[06:14] <wolter> lwizardl, did you check the wine appdb?
[06:14] <Guest64260> hey any one know how to get enemy territory for ubuntu?
[06:14] <lwizardl> wolter, I have the Linux version
[06:14] <sirstan> tysin: no.
[06:14] <wolter> ah
[06:14] <racarter> is it possible to use an ipod/iphone with linux?
[06:15] <sirstan> racarter: yes.
[06:15] <chilli0> racarter:  it is but i think it has to be jailbroken
[06:15] <erisco> soreau, hmm... seems to be alright now...
[06:15] <racarter> oh..
[06:15] <GreedyB> so I followed a tutorial a while back on VNC/SSH and it had me make a script that would popup when I restarted telling me which port VNC was running.. where would that script typically be put?
[06:15] <racarter> what about standard ipod?
[06:15] <Anacranom> lwizardl, my son does i'll try to get him on...
[06:15] <soreau> erisco: Great
[06:15] <tysin> ok, anyone else want to help?
[06:15] <erisco> soreau, seemed to be the auto adjust on my monitor doing a very poor job for whatever reason
[06:15] <chilli0> racarter:  standed just shows up doesnt it?
[06:15] <racarter> does rhythmbox work with ipod?
[06:15] <sirstan> !rhythmbox | racarter
[06:15] <natnayr89> hi, i get the error of "SYSLINUX, Could not find kernel image: Linux" when i try to boot Windows XP. Earlier accidently set syslinux to configure my windows OS partition. Now i cant load Windows.
[06:15] <eseven73> Guest64260: you can search google for an enemy territory .deb those usually work pretty good
[06:15] <Guest64260> any one here know how to get wolfstein enemy territory for linux
[06:15] <racarter> i don't know, i don't have an ipod on me right now
[06:15] <erisco> soreau, one of the blurry things was the applications menu. I opened it and hit auto, it cleared up, and the rest of the blurry patches are gone
[06:16] <erisco> soreau, still weird...
[06:16] <lwizardl> Anacranom, ok thanks
[06:16] <Guest64260> o thnx
[06:16] <eseven73> np
[06:16] <Guest64260> eseven73 any site in particular
[06:16] <natnayr89> pls IM me if anyone has a solution, thank you
[06:17] <impi> ok wtf... i try to unmount my cdrom drive... doesn't work... forcing it doesn't work... sudo doesn't work... reboot worked but hey... this is like the second time this happened
[06:17] <eseven73> Guest64260: hmmm maybe getdeb.net.net or just google it
[06:17] <Guest64260> ok thanks alot
[06:17] <eseven73> !wtf | impi wtf is a swear even if masked...
[06:17] <impi> i know it is... thats why i used it
[06:17] <erisco> soreau, it has never done that in the past anyways
[06:17] <impi> i'm a bit frustrated
[06:18] <eseven73> i can see that
[06:18] <primesuspeckt> linux will definitely frustrate you
[06:18] <nickrud> natnayr89, may I suggest you ask on the syslinux mailling list: I can pretty much guarantee you won't find someone here that will be able to answer that question: http://www.zytor.com/mailman/listinfo/syslinux
[06:18] <eseven73> primesuspeckt: naaa thats the fun part of linux ;)
[06:18] <primesuspeckt> must admit...it is
[06:19] <primesuspeckt> i had nothing to do until i got on it
[06:19] <primesuspeckt> windows is now boring
[06:19] <natnayr89> nickrud: ok thanks
[06:20] <nickrud> natnayr89, I wish you luck, it really sucks to lose access to an os like that
[06:20] <mike> mgobrien
[06:20] <Toes> primesuspeckt: how many commands do you use when doing stuff :(
[06:20] <Anacranom> lwizardl, my son has not got it yet, , sorry
[06:20] <bullgard4> What are 'rtnetlink messages'? (There is a manpage man rtnetlink but I do not understand its intention.)
[06:20] <primesuspeckt> lol....google is my main command. takes me hrs to do jus about anything
[06:21] <primesuspeckt> jus pretty much follow the directions from searches
[06:21] <impi> anyway instead of pointing obvious things out to me...  can you please tell me what causes this or how to prevent this...
[06:21] <nickrud> bullgard4, my guess is they mean messages in /var/log/syslog relating to rtnetlink
[06:21] <primesuspeckt> i don't know what i'm doing...i'm new
[06:21] <lwizardl> Anacranom, no problem all I find are for redora (rpm) on the disc and ubuntu won't let me copy or open any files on the disc inside Ubuntu
[06:21] <primesuspeckt> but i got everything i need pretty much working solid....after about 6 days now
[06:21] <Toes> primesuspeckt: what if someone posts a set of malicious commands on the net, then google bombs them so they show up high in the results for common problems :(
[06:22] <Anacranom> lwizardl, convert to .deb?
[06:22] <nickrud> primesuspeckt, you lucky dog, it took me months to get a well working system years ago :)
[06:22] <Toes> primesuspeckt: be afraid.. they are all out to get you :(
[06:23] <lwizardl> Anacranom, it won't let me copy direct from the disc unless I do it from terminal as sudo. but I completely doubt that maya installer is only 12mb
[06:23] <bullgard4> nickrud: Thank you for your information.
[06:23] <nickrud> impi, did you try sudo eject?
[06:23] <primesuspeckt> hopefully that's not the case....most people using linux and posting the directions tend to be good natured....and for the growth of linux
[06:23] <v_> hello
[06:23] <primesuspeckt> something like that would hurt it
[06:24] <eseven73> lol nickrud old skool linuxer eh? I was almost hooked on linux back in the red hat 5.2 days, but i got skerred and ran back to windows lol, then came back to linux when Ubuntu 7.04 hit , havent looked back since :)
[06:24] <impi> nickrud: mhmmm... i already said i did :)
[06:24] <C0nn0R_> Finished reloading moblock old blocklists.
[06:24] <nickrud> impi, the usual reason you can't unmount a cdrom is because you have some process still open to a file on the cd
[06:24] <C0nn0R_> Since the current ones are total nazis.
[06:24] <Toes> :(
[06:24] <v_> hi how to use ekiga software
[06:24] <fuertesfj> I NEED HELP! OMG
[06:24] <C0nn0R_> Google
[06:24] <nickrud> eseven73, didn't start that far back, I think it was 6.1
[06:25] <eseven73> ah :)
[06:25] <impi> nickrud: then wtf is the force option for
[06:25] <impi> to amuse me?
[06:25] <Paddy_EIRE> fuertesfj, whats the matter.. stuck caps lock key ;)
[06:25] <primesuspeckt> so why do they say linux is for geeks?
[06:26] <MenZa> It used to be. Linux has developed a much over the past two--three years, hell, even the last year.
[06:26] <Paddy_EIRE> primesuspeckt, elsewhere for chit chat.. this is a support channel
[06:26] <eseven73> what MenZa said
[06:26] <fuertesfj> Paddy: LoL I installed UBUNTU because  I really like it but i erase my windows vista
[06:26] <Paddy_EIRE> !pm | v_
[06:26] <MenZa> primesuspeckt: But as Paddy_EIRE, this isn't the place. Try #ubuntu-offtopic for idle chatter. :)
[06:27] <nickrud> impi, I've had little luck with force; lsof | grep /dev/cdrom* has been my saviour over the years
[06:27] <worldcitizen> The only reason I switched to ubuntu is cause I got too many viruses with windows :<
[06:27] <primesuspeckt> lol....no doubt
[06:27] <MenZa> worldcitizen: Please, #ubuntu-offtopic :)
[06:27] <fuertesfj> Paddy_EIRE - Ive lost all my pics and videos
[06:28] <lwizardl> how can i make myself the owner of a non-writable CD ?
[06:28] <Paddy_EIRE> fuertesfj, I feel your pain
[06:28] <Paddy_EIRE> fuertesfj, dont worry its a mistake you wont make often
[06:28] <Paddy_EIRE> fuertesfj, did you format the vista partition?
[06:28] <Paddy_EIRE> it is possible its still there?
[06:28] <tritium> holy !enter, Paddy_EIRE
[06:28] <eseven73> lol
[06:29] <Paddy_EIRE> v_, you are starting to annoy :)
[06:29] <nickrud> !away > tyler_d
[06:29] <v_>  hi how to use ekiga software
[06:29] <Paddy_EIRE> better :P
[06:29] <worldcitizen> also, rhythmbox keeps locking up on me whenever I select a song. It seems to do this whenever I don't restart for awhile. Is there any way I can avoid rhythm box locking up so often?
[06:30] <fuertesfj> I think so i read partitio creator so i said "hey great its creating a partition how cool" but no its not there
[06:30] <worldcitizen> or rather, any good alternatives?
[06:30] <eseven73> Amarok maybe?
[06:30] <impi> nickrud: thats foolish... i'm not going to kill each app that didn't release the cdrom drive
[06:30] <eseven73> !players | worldcitizen
[06:30] <MenZa> nickrud: If the app locks the CD drive, then the app is to blame.
[06:30] <worldcitizen> thanks
[06:30] <MenZa> err, impi*
[06:31] <eseven73> np
[06:31] <fuertesfj> Paddy_EIRE - ive used ubuntu b4 i even have it in an external hard drive for my desktop
[06:31] <MenZa> impi: It's the same thing on Windows. If an application locks the CD drive, then you can't eject it
[06:31] <Paddy_EIRE> fuertesfj, you run ubuntu from an external usb hdd... heh that must be slow D:
[06:31] <nickrud> impi, I don't kill them, I close the connection. usually it's cuz I have a shell open on another desktop <-- see elkbuntu spelling changes ;)
[06:31] <impi> i always can eject the cd drive on windows
[06:31] <v_>  hi how to use ekiga software
[06:32] <MenZa> !ekiga | v_
[06:32] <tritium> v_: please stop repeating
[06:32] <MenZa> hm.
[06:32] <eseven73> oh no you cant not if its being used by another app that is frozen
[06:32] <MenZa> v_: Try checking the 'help' menu in Ekiga, or see http://wiki.ekiga.org/index.php/Main_Page
[06:32] <impi> if an app can prevent umounting of the cd drive then wtf's the force option for?
[06:32] <tritium> impi: please stop using the foul acronyms
[06:33] <nickrud> impi, please think disney G rated here
[06:33] <fuertesfj> Paddy_EIRE - actually no since its 40mb and i have a duo core processor with 2.8ghz
[06:33] <IcemanV9> v_: try this - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Ekiga
[06:33] <Paddy_EIRE> yeah but read write times are still limited to usb.. no amount of cpu will fix that
[06:34] <Paddy_EIRE> fuertesfj, ^
[06:34] <fuertesfj> but the problem im having is accruing in my touch screen laptop
[06:34] <Paddy_EIRE> :(
[06:34] <Paddy_EIRE> fuertesfj, which laptop?
[06:35] <fuertesfj> Paddy_EIRE - oh its a HP Pavilio tx 1000
[06:35] <donavan> anyone know why I can't get my tv card to find channels when it scans
[06:35] <treyk4> I'm having a problem installing ubuntu. After choosing either the install or the try ubuntu option, it loads for a bit, but then comes up with an error message that it repeats every 7 seconds or so: "[122.849374] end request: I/O error, dev sr0, sector 1424592 \n [122.849458] Buffer I/O erroron device sr0, logical block 356148
[06:35] <jtaji> impi: sudo fuser -vki /dev/cdrom will kill processes locking the cdrom (after asking for confirmation)
[06:36] <treyk4> and it just keeps doing that.
[06:36] <OxDeadC0de> treyk4 sounds like a bad cd
[06:37] <treyk4> OxDeadC0de: i doubt it, this is the 2nd copy i've made
[06:37] <OxDeadC0de> treyk4 maybe bad iso? how'd you download it
[06:37] <rww> treyk4: there should be an option in the boot menu to verify the CD
[06:38] <fuertesfj> Paddy_EIRE - it has touch screen technology that has become useless with ubuntu and so has the fingerprint recognition
[06:38] <OxDeadC0de> sr0 is cdrom I'm almost positive about that.. so it's a problem with either your drive, the media, or the image
[06:38] <OxDeadC0de> treyk4 /|\
[06:38] <treyk4> rww: i've already tried that, no problems with it.
[06:38] <rww> treyk4: if that fails, verify the MD5 of the .iso you downloaded, and try burning at a slower speed
[06:38] <eseven73> treyk4: try burning the iso slower if you havent already been down that road
[06:38] <rww> treyk4: it passes that? hmm
[06:38] <IcemanV9> treyk4: are you installing ubuntu onto the old box?
[06:39] <eseven73> try 8.04 treyk4 ?
[06:40] <treyk4> IcemanV9: no, this is a brand new laptop
[06:40] <rww> treyk4: do you have another computer handy to test the CD on?
[06:40] <freq18hz> Hi, does anyone know how to make the tops of windows draggable above the top panel?
[06:41] <treyk4> rww: yes, quite a few. i can't atm, though
[06:41] <fuertesfj> Paddy_EIRE - you there?
[06:42] <jtaji> freq18hz: hold ALT and click anywhere in the window and drag
[06:42] <DefunctProcess> anyone know why my system would ignore the changes I've made with visudo
[06:43] <freq18hz> jtaji: when I hold alt and click and drag, the window stops at the top menu bar, I cannot go above it
[06:43] <OxDeadC0de> hmm anyone know if it's possible to disable dma durring live cd for cdrom's but not hd? That might help treyk4's problem
[06:43] <IcemanV9> treyk4: ok. try to boot with options, noacpi
[06:44] <treyk4> IcemanV9: alright. give me a minute and i'll tell you how it goes.
[06:47] <jtaji> freq18hz: hmm I guess you are using compiz desktop effects, not sure in that case, you can do it with compiz disabled
[06:49] <maximilian-schro> hi. does anybody know a application where i can make a database of my movies. such as rythmbox is for audio but for video formats
[06:49] <maodun> is it possible to use a 2x(1x640GB drive + 1x1TB drive) hardware setup in a raid1 configuration?
[06:50] <maodun> i might be in the wrong room for that question
[06:51] <sirstan> maodun, sure
[06:51] <MenZa> !raid | maodun
[06:51] <maodun> thanks sirstan and menza
[06:51] <MenZa> maodun: Welcome.
[06:52] <pegal_linux> hola
[06:52] <freq18hz> jtaji: any ideas?
[06:53] <fuertesfj> DOES ANYONE KNOW OF A FREE LINUX PROGRAM TO RETRIEVE INFORMATION FROM A HARD DRIVE
[06:53] <jtaji> freq18hz: unless there's some compiz setting for that, disable it in system > prefs > appearance, dunno don't use compiz really
[06:54] <jtaji> !caps | fuertesfj
[06:54] <fuertesfj> sorry
[06:55] <jtaji> fuertesfj: also perhaps a bit more explanation on what you need to do will help people help you
[06:56] <fuertesfj>  jtaji - ok i  installed ubuntu in a windows vista computer to find my self with no windows or data.
[06:56] <jtaji> !pm > okcompuhter
[06:56] <okcompuhter> jtaji, me@me-laptop:~$ sudo mount <IP_ADDRESS>: /a<IP_ADDRESS>/home
[06:56] <okcompuhter> mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting <IP_ADDRESS>:
[06:58] <fuertesfj>  jtaji - I am in sooooooo much trouble, i have work related things in there and now there all gone
[06:58] <okcompuhter> jtaji
[06:59] <jtaji> okcompuhter: not sure why you are addressing this to me
[06:59] <okcompuhter> because you are a volunteer here
[06:59] <okcompuhter> could you please help me
[07:00] <okcompuhter> could anyone help me with my error message please?
[07:00] <gralco> when i try to build wine 1.1.11 it get http://paste.ubuntu.com/94875/plain/
[07:00] <MenZa> !patience | okcompuhter
[07:00] <Flannel> !anyone | okcompuhter
[07:01] <Flannel> gralco: Why are you building wine?
[07:01] <MenZa> gralco: Why are you building wine yourself?
[07:01] <jtaji> fuertesfj: I know it's too late now but you really need to backup before you do stuff like that especially with important data :(
[07:01] <gralco> sorry i ment compile from source
[07:01] <jtaji> fuertesfj: did the ubuntu install overwrite the windows partition completely?
[07:01] <MenZa> gralco: I know - but why?
[07:01] <Flannel> gralco: Right, why are you compiling it?
[07:01] <Draggor> anyone know how to change the default keymap in X to a custom keymap?
[07:01] <MenZa> gralco: Wine has an excellent .deb package repository. Instructions can be found here: http://www.winehq.org/download/deb
[07:02] <gralco> i want to try that release
[07:02] <gralco> yes but there is no .deb for 1.1.11
[07:02] <okcompuhter> ok here is my error message: me@me-laptop:~$ sudo mount <IP_ADDRESS>: /a<IP_ADDRESS>/home
[07:02] <okcompuhter> mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting <IP_ADDRESS>:
[07:02] <okcompuhter>  what am i doing wrong?
[07:02] <fuertesfj> i think so, i also have it installed in my desktop but in a external hd and im able to see all the things in my computers c:\ drive
[07:02] <MenZa> !repeat > okcompuhter
[07:02] <MenZa> gralco: Ah. In that case.
[07:03] <fuertesfj>  jtaji - i cant see non of that in my laptop
[07:03] <gralco> MenZa yes, this was the out put http://paste.ubuntu.com/94875/plain/
[07:03] <jtaji> fuertesfj: what option did you select when it came to disk partition in the install?
[07:03] <fuertesfj>  jtaji - i dont know "next"
[07:04] <fuertesfj>  jtaji - it doesnt even give me a option for windows
[07:04] <GodfatherofEire> !keys
[07:04] <treyk4> okay, no, it didn't work. i ran another cd test just for a sanity check, and it said that the cd itself was fine... but right before the test actually began it spit out that same error.
[07:04] <fuertesfj>  jtaji - in the boot menu that is
[07:04] <MenZa> gralco: Building wine from source can cause some hell using official packages later. If you really want to do so, please run sudo apt-get build-dep wine (make sure you have build-essential installed as well), then download the archive from winehq, untar it, change to the directory and run './configure' followed by 'make' and 'sudo make install'
[07:05] <okcompuhter> MenZa, how many starting lines of text would ya need before restating a question?
[07:05] <MenZa> okcompuhter: I'd wait for a bit at least, and give people some time to read it. If you still don't get an answer, try the !forums or !lists
[07:05] <somnambulant> how do you share a cups printer on a local network when the device uri starts with hp:/ and does not reference any ip?
[07:05] <gralco> ManZa thanks, once the release is stable ill just reinstall it
[07:06] <GodfatherofEire> Ok, could use a bit of help here. The lower/mute volume keys on my keyboard arent working, but the raise volume button is, any ideas?
[07:06] <MenZa> gralco: Remember to remove wine first, and if you leave the files in place, you can run 'sudo make uninstall' in the same directory later.
[07:06] <MenZa> GodfatherofEire: Try checking in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard shortcuts
[07:07] <MenZa> GodfatherofEire: Check if the shortcuts are set properly
[07:07] <fuertesfj>  jtaji - are you there?
[07:07] <GodfatherofEire> MenZa, yeah, I already did, and they're registering the keypresses, but its not actually lowering the volume
[07:07] <treyk4> anyone know what the problem could be? i could try just installing the base system aand then putting a desktop on it, but sometimes while installing that, it freezes starting powernowd
[07:07] <GodfatherofEire> It just raises it
[07:07] <MenZa> GodfatherofEire: Which player are you using?
[07:07] <jtaji> fuertesfj: I would guess you are pretty much out of luck if you overwrote the windows partition instead of resizing it during the install
[07:07] <fuertesfj>  jtaji - dont mean to rush a answer just want to know
[07:07] <treyk4> ythe base system, that is
[07:07] <GodfatherofEire> MenZa, Master volume, not individual programs
[07:08] <MenZa> Ah.
[07:08] <fuertesfj> do you live in america, if you do, would you advise i go to tiger direct to see if the can extract any info.
[07:08] <MenZa> That does sound rather weird... I remember there's a program that'll capture the keypress code, which you can use to set actions for in a config file... but I forget what it's called, let alone how to use it properly. Sorry. :(
[07:09] <MenZa> GodfatherofEire: ^
[07:09] <jtaji> fuertesfj: I wasn't aware tiger direct offered data recovery/forensics
[07:09] <MenZa> (I'm terrible at prefixing my messages with nicks. My bad.)
[07:09] <GodfatherofEire> MenZa: No prob
[07:09] <GodfatherofEire> Gonna check gconfeditor
[07:09] <MenZa> jtaji: If you're using the same computer you wish to recover data from, shut down immediately and boot from a LiveCD. It only scrambles your data further, and makes it less likely that it can be recovered.
[07:10] <fuertesfj>  jtaji - i think they do, is there another store you know of that does that?
[07:10] <jtaji> fuertesfj: MenZa makes a good point
[07:10] <jtaji> fuertesfj: there are companies that provide that service but it is far from cheap
[07:11] <Jaffarkelshac> gnome-mplayer freeze sometimes and i loose sound on my system. amarok has an error, (xine is unable to initialize any audio drivers). restarting fixes this but any other solution.
[07:11] <sushiX> how can i open .iso files in ubuntu
[07:11] <fuertesfj>  jtaji - great more expenses, :'(
[07:11] <vjacob> How are you all? I have to say I'm going against a dead end here so far... got a thinkpad x30 which I've found a way to boot via a USB key finally, however only if I disable the harddrive. My question is: How can I get linux to notice the internal harddrive if I hot-swap insert it post-boot?
[07:11] <n2diy>  where could I find a sound flie to test Audacity?
[07:12] <kc8pxy> i'm getting the following error running ./autogen.sh for the bluefish svn checkout. it works fine on another distro, but it seems ubuntu needs additional packages i don't have installed, which are they?
[07:12] <treyk4> sushiX: to burn to a cd?
[07:12] <kc8pxy> Error. INTLTOOLIZE=intltoolize not found.
[07:12] <vjacob> I can't modprobe -r sd and scsi_mod because the usb key is currently using them
[07:12] <sysscan> @vjacob: did you change the boot startup in the bios?
[07:13] <GodfatherofEire> MenZa, Xorg restart did it
[07:13] <vjacob> syssan: no go trying that, only thing that makes the boot work is removing the harddrive for some reason
[07:13] <MenZa> GodfatherofEire: Sweet. I'll note that. :)
[07:13] <sysscan> i have a t40 and i got it to boot the usb
[07:13] <fuertesfj> MenZa   jtaji   -  Thanks for all youre help
[07:14] <sushiX> treyk4: to mount the iso image and see its contents
[07:14] <vjacob> sysscan: well mine did too. that's not what I'm asking though
[07:14] <sysscan> but you have to disable the harddrive though? i didnt
[07:14] <vjacob> i did
[07:14] <newmoon> ok is open jdk runtime a replacement for the java jre that is needed for frostwire and such
[07:15] <vjacob> isn't it possible to refresh the internal harddrives, if you hot-insert another harddrive post boot?
[07:15] <vjacob> so that I can partition the harddrive now that it's inserted and starts spinning up?
[07:16] <treyk4> sushiX: to tell the truth, i'm not totally sure. sorry, i'm sure someone else knows, though
[07:17] <Jaffarkelshac> sushiX: are you trying to mount iso files?
[07:18] <jtaji> !iso | sushiX
[07:18] <Jaffarkelshac> sudo mount isofile mountpoint -t iso9660 -o loop sushiX
[07:19] <sushiX> isnt there are GUI option that
[07:21] <Jaffarkelshac> i have lost sound on my computer, any way to fix this thought restarting?
[07:23] <treyk4> I'm starting to believe that my laptop doesn't like linux very much...
[07:24] <cristian> hola
