[03:14] <warriorforgod> adrian_: Is it still doing it?
[03:14] <warriorforgod> adrian_: What is it talking about?
[03:14] <adrian_> yep
[03:14] <speeddemon8803> windows key + e..nothing happens craigbass?
[03:14] <_Oz_> craigbass1976: not familiar with gdmflexiserver
[03:14] <arrrghhh> kaiden, you have to do ctrl-alt-f1.  but the "official" ubuntu way is thru restricted drivers manager.  have you tried that?
[03:14] <craigbass1976> speeddemon8803, right
[03:14] <AuraithX> now a gksu apt-get autoremove
[03:14] <speeddemon8803> ok, just making sure we were on the same page :)
[03:14] <pikachu_> is there any reference to MagicSysRq ?
[03:14] <genii> AuraithX: sudo apt-get install somepackage <- correct for instance            apt-get install somepackage      <-- incorrect, needs sudo in front
[03:14] <grandpa> sweetsinse, uh i don't have freenx but nx client for linux....is there a difference?
[03:14] <adrian_> test about somthing
[03:14] <kaiden> arrrghhh, ctrl alt f1 doesn't do anything at all
[03:15] <_Oz_> craigbass1976: do you have an nvidia or ATI card?
[03:15] <adrian_> omg lol
[03:15] <wease|> haha
[03:15] <adrian_> its talking about metal gear sold again
[03:15] <warriorforgod> adrian_: What?
[03:15] <wease|> super E is pretty sexy...sad you dont have it
[03:15] <sweetsinse> grandpa do a search for nx
[03:15] <AuraithX> yein this case i needed gksu sudo
[03:15] <craigbass1976> _Oz_, It's a command I run by having an icon pointing to it on the Desktop.  Quicker than System -> Quit ->switch user
[03:15] <warriorforgod> lol
[03:15] <glam> hi, I just upgrade grub to grub2 on Gutsy, however, when I boot, I only get a grub rescue prompt, any help?
[03:15] <AuraithX> for some reason
[03:15] <AuraithX> didnt work with just sudo
[03:15] <grandpa> swwetsinse, i have nxserver , nxclient, nxnode
[03:15] <genii> AuraithX: Please don't improvise commands mixing GUI sudo commands with command-line applications for instance.
[03:15] <craigbass1976> _Oz_, whatever is on board this Dell 2400
[03:15] <sweetsinse> ok
[03:15] <arrrghhh> kaiden, did you listen to a word i said?
[03:15] <sweetsinse> grandpa remove them all
[03:15] <arrrghhh> or read for that matter...
[03:15] <AuraithX> I can't even rememember what I'm doing - will this fix the firewall crashing?
[03:16] <sweetsinse> grandpa you need the commercial client but you need a certain version as per the guys instructions
[03:16] <grandpa> sweetsinse: really...
[03:16] <kaiden> arrrghhh, yes, read quite well, problem is.... you didn't listen to what i said :)
[03:16] <craigbass1976> wease|, my wife would probably get angry if the computer started being sexy all of a sudden
[03:16] <arrrghhh> kaiden, did you try it with the restricted drivers manager?
[03:16] <AuraithX> can anyone remember what I was doing? :S
[03:16] <_Oz_> craigbass1976: probably a built-in intel video card...  should work pretty well with compiz
[03:16] <kaiden> #1, ctrl-alt-f1 doesn't drop out of xorg to a console, #2, the restricted drivers manager, has the one that is installed from apt-get
[03:16] <kaiden> the apt-get version is old
[03:16] <sweetsinse> although i have done it successfully with ltest commercial client
[03:16] <evilbug> i already installed everything using a tutorial,it's just that when i try to connect it'll ask me for the network key a couple of times and then doesn't connect at all.
[03:17] <sweetsinse> some issues with shadowing
[03:17] <wease|> craigbass1976, gotta love a lil graphical sexiness...compiz, beryl, and small things like super E make it pretty sexy...
[03:17] <_Oz_> craigbass1976: if you're going to keep playing with linux/ubuntu I recommend migrating away from manufacturers like dell who put proprietary hardware built-in to the mobo
[03:17] <wease|> build the comp from the ground up
[03:17] <evilbug> it actually showed the signal bars for a little while (which i assume meant it connected) but the internet still would not work.
[03:17] <wease|> thats the best way
[03:17] <craigbass1976> _Oz_, This is what I had.  I recen'ty bought a new dell with ubuntu on it, but the desktop effects don't work at all on that.
[03:18] <wease|> one more month to go for hardy
[03:18] <wease|> im stoked
[03:18] <sweetsinse> in reality, with the monitor, keyboard, mouse, EVERY little thing including heatsink... a comp has about 14 parts
[03:18] <craigbass1976> I do like this dell I'm on now though--been with me since fedora1
[03:18] <arrrghhh> kaiden, the restricted drivers manager is the way to go.  it works great (in 7.10... it was *ok* in 7.04.)  and ctrl-alt-f1 kicks me back to a console in a HURRY.
[03:18] <_Oz_> craigbass1976: dell desktops actually seem to work okay with ubuntu but in general you want the ability to put exactly the hardware you want into the machine, and you'll have more fun with alternate OS'
[03:18] <orionr> Hey im trying to setup a smb share on my computer. for some reason this isnt working though.
[03:18] <Viktorious> how do u remove a program
[03:18] <arrrghhh> i use kubuntu tho.
[03:18] <craigbass1976> orionr, what exactly is screwed up?
[03:19] <PsynoKhi0> my USB works great in Puppy linux but Xubuntu won't cooperate, what do I need to tweak?
[03:19] <_Oz_> craigbass1976: did super-E work for you?
[03:19] <arrrghhh> Viktorious, there's tons of ways.  how do you install programs?  apt-get?  add/remove programs?  synaptic?
[03:19] <Viktorious> apt-get
[03:19] <craigbass1976> _Oz_, nope.  What's it supposed to do?
[03:19] <arrrghhh> Viktorious, apt-get remove.
[03:19] <_Oz_> craigbass1976: it's an 'enhancement' over alt-tab which I like a lot
[03:19] <orionr> craigbass1976: i added this to the bottom of my smb.conf file. DOes this look right? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/56919/
[03:19] <_Oz_> it gives you a 3D view of your desktop windows, standing on a pane of reflective glass
[03:20] <wease|> its pretty dayum sexy
[03:20] <wease|> haha
[03:20] <_Oz_> it's like alt-tab but you can easily see what each screen has on it
[03:20] <AuraithX> firestarter is still crashing I think its the gksu thats crashing - can you run firestarter any other way
[03:20] <_Oz_> it's sexy but more importantly, useful
[03:20] <kaiden> arrrghhh, then i must be stupid, because in the restricted drivers manager i hit ctrl-alt-f1 and nothing happens
[03:20] <kaiden> :P
[03:20] <wease|> oz, agreed
[03:20] <_Oz_> there are a number of really useful compiz-fusion enhancements
[03:20] <craigbass1976> _Oz_, and it's not like ctrl+alt+up or down?
[03:20] <orionr> craigbass1976: then i ran smbpasswd -a orionr and set a smb password
[03:20] <_Oz_> craigbass1976: no, it's not
[03:20] <wease|> nah
[03:20] <wease|> not the same thing
[03:20] <arrrghhh> kaiden, not in the restricted drivers manager, anywhere.  the restricted drivers manager is where i installed the drivers for all my nvidia cards.
[03:21] <Carbonflux> I use the window rules stuff a lot in CCSM
[03:21] <_Oz_> I really enjoy my ubuntu desktop blowing away my XP desktop
[03:21] <nickrud> craigbass1976: you can move windows from desktop to desktop. Pretty
[03:21] <Carbonflux> as much as I do the eye candy stuff
[03:21] <_Oz_> people that have seen it are like, "Wait, what is THAT?  That's AWESOME!"
[03:21] <arrrghhh> kaiden, and i think maybe kubuntu sets that keystroke for you.
[03:21] <wease|> oz, my box makes xp look like its running on a 486 box
[03:21] <wease|> hehe
[03:21] <_Oz_> And I say, "That's the power of Linux, my feeble friend."
[03:21] <craigbass1976> orionr, is this behind a firewall?
[03:21] <_Oz_> wease|: yeah, same here
[03:21] <_Oz_> It's quite powerful
[03:21] <arrrghhh> can someone in here confirm that?  ctrl-alt-f1 kicks me out to a console.  i use kubuntu.  what is it in ubuntu?
[03:21] <AuraithX> uhrm I think someone has changed my su
[03:21] <_Oz_> I just wish I could run Photoshop and Illustrator natively in Ubuntu
[03:22] <AuraithX> its saying Auth fail with the right pass??
[03:22] <_Oz_> If Adobe would release Linux versions of those I'd be totally set
[03:22] <orionr> craigbass1976: no do i need to apt-get install samba?
[03:22] <Carbonflux> Photoshop runs good in wine
[03:22] <wease|> oz,  google is workin to make that happen
[03:22] <_Oz_> wease|: explain
[03:22] <MrKnights> Is there a program that can limit the memory of a single process?
[03:22] <arrrghhh> Carbonflux, which version of pshop
[03:22] <_Oz_> MrKnights: if you find it, let me know
[03:22] <askvictor> where can I check the temperature of the motherboard etc?
[03:23] <wease|> oz, you didnt read that google is working on supporting the photoshop for linux?
[03:23] <_Oz_> Carbonflux: it doesn't run well in wine...  I run CS2 in Wine and it is OK but a far cry from native in XP
[03:23] <Carbonflux> hm, well I got 5.5 working a while back
[03:23] <wease|> let me find a link
[03:23] <Carbonflux> in Fedora
[03:23] <_Oz_> wease|: NO, I didn't!  That is exciting, can you give me a link?
[03:23] <arrrghhh> askvictor, your hardware has to support it, or you have to put temp sensors.
[03:23] <Carbonflux> I have not tried 5.5 in wine with Ubuntu yet
[03:23] <AuraithX> su and root pass are the same thing, right??
[03:23] <Carbonflux> really I got used to gimp
[03:23] <_Oz_> askvictor: do a search for "ubuntu screenlets" and install the "sensors" screenlet
[03:23] <wease|> im a slashdot whore
[03:23] <wease|> hehe
[03:23] <Daisuke_Ido> google is pouring money into Wine to improve photoshop compatibility.  a small but subtle difference
[03:23] <arrrghhh> Carbonflux, that's really old lol.
[03:23] <Carbonflux> and don't need photoshop for anything
[03:23] <_Oz_> you can get sensor for GPU processor temp, etc
[03:23] <wease|> oz, http://linux.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=08/02/20/1837204&from=rss
[03:24] <_Oz_> jeez, just another reason to love google
[03:24] <wease|> yeeuh
[03:24] <Carbonflux> arrrghhh, ya i have basicly stopped using it, I keep it around because its a legal copy and I use it in windows sometimes for basic stuff
[03:24] <NativeAngels> anyone know how you set global and local users in irc ?
[03:24] <Carbonflux> arrrghhh, gimp will do everything I need, I admit my needs are minor heh
[03:24] <askvictor> _Oz_: do they provide logging?
[03:25] <wease|> gimp just needs to improve on their tool windows
[03:25] <wease|> adobe has the one thing up on them
[03:25] <Carbonflux> well, its not like gimp is Open Source or something ;)
[03:25] <glam> anyone using grub2?
[03:25] <poolos> connect irc.EpiKnet.org
[03:25] <wease|> haha
[03:25] <craigbass1976> orionr, hang on a minute
[03:25] <wease|> gimp is pretty schweet
[03:25] <Carbonflux> if gimp was open source someone might be able to fix that problem.
[03:25] <nano__> whats a MSWindows equivalent of GIMP?  I haven't used windows in a while
[03:25] <nano__> *what is
[03:25] <Carbonflux> there is none
[03:25] <Carbonflux> unless you buy one
[03:25] <Daisuke_Ido> "As part of the Google/Photoshop initiative, Photoshop will now log all changes you make to images and make them searchable from within the program.  They will also be able to be labeled with tags, so all blur changes can be tagged with 'blur' and whatnot."
[03:26] <wease|> gimp is windows compatible
[03:26] <nano__> CarbonFlux: what can a perons buy?
[03:26] <kaiden> arrrghhh, ok i think the confusion was in what i was describing as what i wanted to do, i need to actually install the driver from the website, but i cannot do so until i exit out of Xorg into a regular console to run the installer
[03:26] <Daisuke_Ido> Carbonflux: how about the gimp?
[03:26] <Carbonflux> Photoshop nano_
[03:26] <nano__> what about mspaint?
[03:26] <Carbonflux> gimp runs in windows ?
[03:26] <nano__> or microsoft paint
[03:26] <wease|> yup
[03:26] <Daisuke_Ido> yeah
[03:26] <Z_o-s-o> gimp for windows
[03:26] <Carbonflux> I did not know that
[03:26] <Carbonflux> nice
[03:26] <Carbonflux> I want it
[03:26] <wease|> gimp has run windows for yeasrs
[03:26] <sweetsinse> grandpa: hows it going
[03:26]  * Carbonflux downloads
[03:26] <maxownz> anyone in here use tor?
[03:26] <glam> what is tor?
[03:26] <Daisuke_Ido> oh come on, that was funny -_-
[03:26] <grandpa> sweetsinse, ADD kicked in...still trying to understand the tutorial..
[03:26] <Carbonflux> I always get gimp thru my distro's package manager
[03:26] <AuraithX> occasionalty
[03:27] <Carbonflux> I did not realise there was a windows version
[03:27] <wease|> yeeuh
[03:27] <AuraithX> brb
[03:27] <wease|> its pretty schweet
[03:27] <edward_> i'm downloading a 2.9 gb iso but it keep failing md5 how can i resume it and get it hashed for completeness
[03:27] <maxownz> glam: www.torproject.org
[03:27] <nano__> Google is paying $$ to the WIne guys to port Adobe Photoshop
[03:27] <_Oz_> askvictor: not sure, but probably not.
[03:27] <maxownz> nano_: yes I saw that, pretty interesting
[03:27] <edward_> i tried wget -c already
[03:27] <genii> glam: tor is an anonymizer service. Basically a proxy server.
[03:27] <sweetsinse> you dont have to do every step... mainly just get the packages from his repo.. then make sure you do that font thing or else freenx will crash
[03:27] <Tama00> edward_, dump it in a torrent ;)
[03:27] <craigbass1976> orionr, ok, where are you at
[03:27] <Tama00> edward_, if there is a torrent for that file
[03:27] <Z_o-s-o> does tor really work as advertised?
[03:27] <leprasmurf> hello all, I've got videos on my ubuntu server, and I'm trying to watch 'em on my ubuntu laptop over wireless.  These files are about 150megs a piece, but it's very choppy.  any recommendations on how I can improve the performance? (I'm currently watching over nfs)
[03:28] <Daisuke_Ido> nano__: wrong again.  there is no "porting", google is just putting money into wine to improve compatibility
[03:28] <_bryce> I want to install Ubuntu on a thinkpad X61. It has no optical drive. What's the easiest way to install ubuntu on it? I googled, but all I found was some thing that involved using windows (!) to make the bootable thumb drive.
[03:28] <sweetsinse> grandpa what i did was remove all the fonts under node.conf except one
[03:28] <Tama00> use the file as the source and it will scan the file and then dowonload the missing bits:)
[03:28] <nano__> maxownz: Google is CIA money funded and therefore a pile of crap
[03:28] <arrrghhh> kaiden, i know.  on mine, kubuntu, ctrl-alt-f1 gets me to a console where i can kill gdm.
[03:28] <Tama00> ahh bittorrent:)
[03:28] <_Oz_> well, Photoshop "sort of" ports to Wine right now but it is far from perfect
[03:28] <_Oz_> It's a lot slower to load, a lot slower to use and has transparency problems.
[03:28] <maxownz> Z_o-s-o: yep, I get a talk from their developers every semester
[03:28] <maxownz> nano_: is CIA money different from like money you use at 7-11?
[03:28] <craigbass1976> orionr, I've never tried to secure samba shares.  I've kept the netowrk secure from the outside world, then lef the sambe share wide open
[03:28] <edward_> Tama00, there is no torrent
[03:28] <edward_> unfortunately
[03:28] <TrustNoOne> Hope someone can help: its with my sound. Sometimes I can't hear video sounds like on youtube and porn sites, other times I can, and most of the time I don't hear my login/logout sounds
[03:28] <Z_o-s-o> maxownz: sweet ill have to try it
[03:28] <_Oz_> If you use Photoshop professionally, Wine is just sort of a neat novelty at the moment.  It's cool that it runs at all, don't get me wrong, but it's not seriously a viable option for professional use yet.
[03:29] <orionr> craigbass1976: i think i got it tanks for your help i just needed to install the samba package. I though i had it because i had the /etc/samba/smb.conf file.
[03:29] <craigbass1976> GIMP!!!
[03:29] <_Oz_> nano__: actually, the FBI, not the CIA, funds google.
[03:29] <craigbass1976> orionr, weird.... I'd have thought the same thing
[03:29] <Arko> hi
[03:29] <nano__> maxownz: seriously, cia (much like many other intelligence agency) are trying to get good ground on the internet...... that is why google has had such $$ pouring in.
[03:29] <nano__> they are neighbours with NASA
[03:29] <craigbass1976> orionr, I guess I never checked before I installed smaba server for smb.conf
[03:29] <_Oz_> TrustNoOne: I totally dig that you used the example of "porn site" for problem with your sound drivers.  Two thumbs up!
[03:30] <craigbass1976> ;)
[03:30] <nano__> _Oz_: fbi, cia....its all big brother
[03:30] <PsynoKhi0> at least he/she is honest
[03:30] <jrib> !offtopic | nano__, maxownz
[03:30] <ubotu> nano__, maxownz: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[03:30] <Oloughlin75> whats not to love about big brother, nano_ ?
[03:30] <_Oz_> craigbass1976: GIMP is a long, long way away from what Photoshop can do.  Sorry, I like Gimp, and I love open source software, but Adobe has everyone beat by a mile (as well they should, they've been developing this application for 15 years!)
[03:30] <craigbass1976> I know, just tooting a horn...
[03:30] <matthias> hi
[03:30] <_Oz_> craigbass1976: =)
[03:30] <Arko> I am trying to follow this howto: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Gutsy . It asks to "1) Open System -> Administration -> Restricted Driver Manager and you will see that under the Firmware drop down arrow it says Firmware for Broadcom 43xx chipset family and under Status it says Not in Use." There is no "Firmware" here. How can I enable it?
[03:30] <edward__> I was wondering how do I perform a search
[03:30] <nano__> Oloughlin75: i hope ur being sarcastic
[03:30] <matthias> anybody runnih
[03:31] <Kalamansi> hello how to copy and paste all the updates that ive downloaded? the debs is in the usb flash drive.. i tried to copy it from usb and paste it to archie of the ubuntu desktop 7.10 ... still wont copy using mouse control.....thanks
[03:31] <wease|> oz...15 years?? try 25 years at least
[03:31] <edward__> i want to search just my cdrom on ubuntu
[03:31] <Oloughlin75> nano_, shouldnt we all love big brother ;)
[03:31] <_Oz_> wease|: yeah, you're right.
[03:31] <AuraithX> uhmr
[03:31] <_Oz_> wease|: I've been using it for 15 years.
[03:31] <matthias> hi anybody that can help me install my wireless from ubuntu 7.10
[03:31] <AuraithX> my firewall just blocked 2 IPs
[03:31] <_Oz_> I started with Photshop 2
[03:31] <AuraithX> coming thru TCP
[03:31] <craigbass1976> 25?  Didn't we just have atari then?
[03:31] <Kalamansi> hello how to copy and paste all the updates that ive downloaded? the debs is in the usb flash drive.. i tried to copy it from usb and paste it to archie of the ubuntu desktop 7.10 ... still wont copy using mouse control.....thanks
[03:31] <AuraithX> those hack attempts ?
[03:31] <mEck0_> I was just thinking of if there is a website where you can download free ogg music (obviously legal ones!)
[03:31] <Oloughlin75> matthias, you can use ndiswrapper if you have the windows drivers
[03:31] <jrib> !wifi > matthias (read the private message from ubotu)
[03:31] <_Oz_> I remember being so excited about my copy of Photoshop 3.0 arriving at work.
[03:31] <craigbass1976> I think I got mine when I was six...
[03:31] <wease|> haha
[03:31] <wease|> PS 3.0
[03:31] <wease|> wow
[03:32] <wease|> makes me feel so old
[03:32] <craigbass1976> $100 at toys r us
[03:32] <nano__> _Oz_: what all do you do with photoshop?
[03:32] <jrib> Kalamansi: where are you trying to copy it to?
[03:32] <_Oz_> How about the TI-99/4A?
[03:32] <_Oz_> nano__: print, web, billboards, you name it.
[03:32] <Scunizi> anyone know how to update Warsow from synaptic version to .41?  I've done the download but am having problems.
[03:32] <Arko> hmmm
[03:32] <nano__> _Oz_: i never really got into graphic design
[03:32] <nano__> or web publishing
[03:32] <nano__> :(
[03:32] <Oloughlin75> matthias, sudo apt-get ndiswrapper-common (have cd in the drive) then ndiswrapper -i /driver/lic/file.inf, then ndiswrapper -m, and restart
[03:33] <_Oz_> wease|: you remember 3.0 when it was new?  I think that was when the layers palette really started being majorly useful.
[03:33] <_Oz_> nano__: well...  nothing wrong with that, really.
[03:33] <_Oz_> Programming pays better!
[03:33] <nano__> _Oz_: i don't know about that
[03:33] <blink148> uhh i need security help
[03:33] <Z_o-s-o> btw, anyone have any experience with setting up a Radeon X1300 in Gutsy?
[03:33] <PsynoKhi0> !usb

[03:34] <blink148> I think I've just had 2 hack attempts
[03:34] <blink148> whoops
[03:34] <wease|> 3.0, for pc and mac
[03:34] <PsynoKhi0> :(
[03:34] <_Oz_> Z_o-s-o: no...  ATI is pretty rough in Ubuntu right now.
[03:34] <Tama00> maybe its your name thats proviking em;)
[03:34] <blink148> <--- AuraithX
[03:34] <nano__> blink148: its prolly ur torrent client
[03:34] <blink148> no its my dads thing
[03:34] <wease|> back then photoshop was just ms paint on steroids
[03:34] <blink148> oh right i know what you man
[03:34] <wease|> we all laughed about it
[03:34] <Z_o-s-o> _Oz_ : I know that its pretty sketchy, i try to stick to Nvidia
[03:34] <blink148> no i wasnt using the computer
[03:35] <blink148> im on the mac
[03:35] <_Oz_> So, what's google's angle?  Why do they want to fund Codeweavers' Linux/PS port?
[03:35] <wease|> <-- nvidia sli slut
[03:35] <blink148> because my accounts keep getting disconeected
[03:35] <_Oz_> Z_o-s-o: yeah, nvidia is the way to go (for both Win and Linux, actually.)
[03:35] <nano__> blink148: if ur a mac user, then u are in the wrong place
[03:35] <Kalamansi> jrib : here in var/cache/apt/archives
[03:35] <_Oz_> Nvidia is the best for gaming, best for graphics, best for Linux.    Everything works right in gutsy cept youtube + compiz = high cpu load
[03:36] <_Oz_> wease|: that'd be nice
[03:36] <wease|> i hope
[03:36] <wease|> maybe amd will force ati to give out driver code
[03:36] <_Oz_> Z_o-s-o: I have an ATI card in this dell laptop I'm using right now...  that's one of the reasons I'm not putting Ubuntu on it.
[03:36] <Z_o-s-o> maxownz : I have a radeon 9200 that works great as well
[03:36] <edward__> i want to search just my cdrom on ubuntu?????
[03:36] <PsynoKhi0> that's been annouced like 5 months ago
[03:36] <Oloughlin75> amd would be willing to spit out decent open source drivers, right?
[03:37] <edward__> hows' thats possible...
[03:37] <blink148> what is POSIX error
[03:37] <_Oz_> Oloughlin75: you never know...
[03:37] <sweetsinse> i have an old pc i bought fro the local college for less than $100 that runs gutsy + compiz perfectly on a 32mb grapics card.  haha albeit i had to modify the compiz script to get it to w3rk
[03:37] <Z_o-s-o> the support is getting better
[03:37] <blink148> can anyone see what im typing?
[03:37] <Z_o-s-o> yep
[03:37] <blink148> wtf why does it keep coming up POSIX error
[03:37] <_Oz_> blink148: I'm just seeing a bunch of fuzzy/distorted pixelation trailing off to the right of your name
[03:37] <jrib> edward__: Places -> Search
[03:38] <wease|> oz...lay off the white lightning
[03:38] <edward__> cmd line based?
[03:38] <OcHa> haii??
[03:38] <_Oz_> sweetsinse: compiz runs "perfectly?"  Isn't there a lot of delay?
[03:38] <jrib> edward__: find /cdrom ...
[03:38] <edward__> :D
[03:38] <Oloughlin75> _Oz_, it doesnt take much to run compiz
[03:38] <TrustNoOne> Hope someone can help: its with my sound. Sometimes I can't hear video sounds like on youtube and porn sites, other times I can, and most of the time I don't hear my login/logout sounds
[03:39] <sweetsinse> no not at all.. sometimes i get black boxes whrer the vid card doesnt have enough memory to render the texture
[03:39] <jrib> edward__: see 'man find' though.  Depending on how you want to search, you need to use -name, etc
[03:39] <vrkhans> any good program for watching tv on computer
[03:39] <wease|> mythbox
[03:39] <wease|> \m/
[03:39] <vrkhans> like wintv
[03:39] <Z_o-s-o> _Oz_ yeah ive got compiz running on a P3 750mhz 768 ish megs of ram and a Radeon 9200
[03:40] <_Oz_> Oloughlin75: well, I have a P4 w/ 1gb of RAM and a cheapo on-board card, it runs Compiz without any problems but it's slow when the effects engage...
[03:40] <Z_o-s-o> everything in my house basically has ubuntu installed on it, just one plain XP box the other is dual boot
[03:40] <_Oz_> vrkhans: try the slingbox
[03:40] <lwizardl> hi
[03:40] <orkun> hey there - is it possible that ubuntu(or better say linux in general) lacks hdtv capabilities? when i try to watch my lost .mkvs every now and then video freezes for maybe 5 seconds and my laptop gets VERY hot - it is a pentium dual core inside(the newest, but the weaker version, although not the celeron version :>) with 2x 1.83GHz. vga is a intel(one of the better models) which makes compiz run flawlessly but lacks hardware t&l for games
[03:40] <orkun>  like world of warcraft(but this shouldnt effect playback of mkv-files)
[03:40] <Tokayla> two linux machines.. both using the same samba conf.. with different names etc.. one works perfectly the other just asks for the password to the guest account..
[03:40] <Tokayla> is there anything other then the samba conf that configures samba?
[03:41] <lwizardl> whats the best cd ripper that supports ripping to flac audio files?
[03:41] <icesword> coz,i dualboot before,anyone can tell me 0 ,0 sector' wrong point
[03:41] <vrkhans> _Oz how can i download that
[03:41] <genii> Tokayla: What part of samba is it that you wish to configure?
[03:41] <orkun> "unfortunately" i removed windows some months ago :> so i cant test
[03:41] <_Oz_> vrkhans: you have to buy hardware
[03:41] <bulazeem> i don't want to see my cd rom drive, hard drive, and external hard drive on my desktop.  how do i get them off?
[03:41] <vrkhans> i am looking some software like wintv
[03:41] <Nubbie> the only reason windows is still installed on my computer is so i can use my damn softmodem.
[03:42] <Tokayla> genii im basicly configuring guest access to one folder and local user access to another
[03:42] <_Oz_> question: where is a list of all the current (free) Linux distros?
[03:42] <Tokayla> just as a simple file server
[03:42] <orkun> _Oz_: wikipedia
[03:42] <vrkhans> is there any software like wintv in linux
[03:42] <prince_jammys> distrowatch
[03:42] <orkun> search for List of Linux Distributions
[03:42] <IndyGunFreak> vrkhans: TVTime
[03:42] <Z_o-s-o> mythtv?
[03:42] <matthias> hi anyone that maed it with wireless car installation on broadcom wireless card
[03:42] <PsynoKhi0> any expert in USB configuration under ubuntu here?
[03:42] <Kalamansi> jrib : i am root. still i cannot copy the debs in my usb to my pc  var/cache/apt/archives..if i can see the "copy" portion in usb flash drive but when i tried to paste in var/cache/apt/archives i dont see "paste" in right click
[03:42] <Oloughlin75> vrkhans, mythtv is like windows media center
[03:42] <orkun> (requires less typing than asking here) :>
[03:42] <edward_> jrib, what are u telling me to search for exactly?
[03:42] <bulazeem> i don't want to see my cd rom drive, hard drive, and external hard drive on my desktop.  how do i get them off?
[03:43] <prince_jammys> edward_: what are you trying to do?
[03:43] <_Oz_> orkun: thank you
[03:43] <jrib> Kalamansi: what do you mean you are root?  you are not supposed to be
[03:43] <edward_> i'm downloading a 2.9 gb iso but it keep failing md5 how can i resume it and get it hashed for completeness
[03:43] <Oloughlin75> bulazeem, its under configure desktop, icons or something
[03:43] <edward_> i tried wget -c already
[03:43] <Z_o-s-o> matthias : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Feisty_No-Fluff
[03:43] <IndyGunFreak> bulazeem: open a terminal, put in "gconf-editor" no qutoes, then navigate to apps/nautilus/desktop, and uncheck everything
[03:44] <matthias> thank you
[03:44] <genii> Tokayla: After copying the one smb.conf to the other machine and changing the 1 name, did you restart the samba?eg: sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
[03:44] <Z_o-s-o> mathias that works with gutsy too
[03:44] <prince_jammys> edward_: how were you downloading it?
[03:44] <bulazeem> thank you Oloughlin75 and IndyGunFreak
[03:44] <edward_> from http
[03:44] <IndyGunFreak> bulazeem: np
[03:44] <matthias> okey i am running 7.10 now
[03:44] <edward_> there isnt any torrent for it
[03:44] <jrib> edward_: if you want to search for a file named "foo", you do: find /cdrom -name foo  .  I'm just saying that since your question was not specific, you will want to read 'man find' to do whatever it is you want to do
[03:44] <matthias> i will try it, thanks
[03:44] <wease|> im ready for hardy
[03:44] <Z_o-s-o> matthias : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Feisty_No-Fluff
[03:44] <wease|> hehe
[03:44] <prince_jammys> edward_: using wget?
[03:44] <Tokayla> genii of course..
[03:44] <Kalamansi> jrib : sudo -i ..then copy/paste
[03:44] <Z_o-s-o> matthias : it works for gutsy too
[03:44] <Tokayla> even tried rebooting
[03:44] <edward_> i initiallyused firefox
[03:44] <_Oz_> After Ubuntu, what's the most popular Linux distro, gang?
[03:45] <matthias> okey
[03:45] <speeddemon8803> wease|: so are we ;)
[03:45] <jrib> Kalamansi: paste the command you entered
[03:45] <matthias> :)
[03:45] <Oloughlin75> _Oz_, Kubuntu!
[03:45] <Z_o-s-o> _Oz_ opensuse
[03:45] <_Oz_> heh
[03:45] <speeddemon8803> _oz_ looks like pclinux according to distrowatch
[03:45] <_Oz_> Oloughlin75: not ubuntu flavors. :) Other distros.
[03:45] <genii> Tokayla: Do you have any samba users on the machine which keeps asking for guest login?
[03:45] <prince_jammys> edward_: wget -c is only going to continue downloads begun by wget
[03:45] <Tokayla> yup
[03:45] <_Oz_> pclinux? What's its claim to fame, speeddemon8803?
[03:45] <Oloughlin75> _Oz_, PCLinuxOS is popular, too (meant to be super duper user friendly)
[03:45] <edward_> after detecting that the md5 was wrong i tried using wget but it stated that the file is already complete
[03:45] <wease|> speeddemon8803: ive been runnin gutsy since alpha...im ready for a new OS
[03:45] <wease|> hehe
[03:45] <nickrud> _Oz_: distrowatch.org
[03:45] <_Oz_> Is it safe to say, though, that Ubuntu is the most popular?
[03:46] <two_bits> wease|: you only have to wait a few more months...
[03:46] <speeddemon8803> _Oz_:  personally i dont like it
[03:46] <matthias> bye
[03:46] <genii> Tokayla: What are the permissions of the folder which is being shared?
[03:46] <speeddemon8803> _Oz_:  yep
[03:46] <Z_o-s-o> I tried PCLinuxOS but I dont really like KDE and it was pretty clunky
[03:46] <Oloughlin75> _Oz_, id say so, but try out kubuntu :)
[03:46] <IndyGunFreak> _Oz_: either Ubuntu or PCLinuxOS... but I'd say Ubuntu has more users
[03:46] <wease|> two_bits: april is coming!
[03:46] <wease|> hahaha
[03:46] <Z_o-s-o> Hardy!
[03:46] <anaxagorus> anyone know how to do x11 over ssh with ubuntu?
[03:46] <speeddemon8803> IndyGunFreak: Definately, and..we have a forum..that is basically flooded with support, 24/7/365
[03:46] <ng0n> quick dumb question: i want to boot hd ubuntu from CD.  what syntax should i use to boot /dev/hda2 ?
[03:46] <Oloughlin75> Z_o-s-o, you can modify the hideous gray taskbar, you know
[03:46] <Arko> I am trying to follow this howto: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Gutsy . It asks to "1) Open System -> Administration -> Restricted Driver Manager and you will see that under the Firmware drop down arrow it says Firmware for Broadcom 43xx chipset family and under Status it says Not in Use." There is no "Firmware" here. How can I enable it?
[03:47] <Kalamansi> jrib : terminal: sudo -i .. then i type my passwd.. then i open the drive of usb flash drive, select all debs and ctrl+c then i go to var/cache/apt/archives then ctrl+v and still not working..i dont see the files copied from usb..
[03:47] <_Oz_> oloughlin: it's just Ubuntu with the KDE interface, right?
[03:47] <speeddemon8803> _Oz_:  correct
[03:47] <_Oz_> Oloughlin75: it's just Ubuntu with the KDE interface, right?
[03:47] <Tokayla> genii all 777
[03:47] <fredmv> Sup _oz_...
[03:47] <Oloughlin75> _Oz_, not really
[03:47] <_Oz_> fredmv!
[03:47] <wease|> how not really?
[03:47] <Z_o-s-o> Oloughlin75 I dont like KDE is all, I think Gnome is better
[03:47] <IndyGunFreak> speeddemon8803: yeah, i wasn't disagreeing with you, but if you looka t Distrowatch, PCLOS is always near the top(but i think that just ranks downloads... so its obviously people trying it, but i think people tend to stick w/ ubuntu)
[03:47] <Oloughlin75> _Oz_, its got KDE programs instead of gnome
[03:47] <Oloughlin75> alright, they got the same base
[03:47] <_Oz_> Yeah, I'd have to say I'm a little happier with gnome
[03:47] <wease|> KDE is just a manager
[03:47] <_Oz_> a little more stable, a little more user-friendly
[03:47] <speeddemon8803> IndyGunFreak:  yeah, i got what you were saying after i read it, sorry :)
[03:48] <Z_o-s-o> only thing good that came out of KDE was K3B'
[03:48]  * IndyGunFreak thinks KDE is the devil
[03:48] <fredmv> _oz_: remember that SDL problem I was having?   Still clueless as to what to do... lol.     That's what I get for being a Windoze user for so long.
[03:48] <wease|> you can always swap at login
[03:48] <Z_o-s-o> K3B is amazing
[03:48]  * speeddemon8803 personally loathes KDE
[03:48] <IndyGunFreak> speeddemon8803: lol, no probl, this channel moves at the speed of light, it happens
[03:48] <_Oz_> fredmv: which SDL problem?
[03:48] <speeddemon8803> BUT k3b..rocks
[03:48] <jrib> Kalamansi: no, 'sudo -i' only gives you a root shell.  It does not affect the gui.  You would have to use a terminal command like 'mv'.  Alternatively, you should "exit" your root shell and run "gksudo nautilus".  Then do your copying and immediately close that instance of nautilus
[03:48] <Oloughlin75> Z_o-s-o, umm, amarok?!
[03:48] <fredmv> _oz_: this one: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=703137
[03:48] <xTheGoat121x> how's everyone doing tonight?
[03:48] <ng0n> syntax to boot HD from CD ?
[03:48] <speeddemon8803> IndyGunFreak: amazingly i still get a boot up my butt for stuff even with the quick movements.
[03:48] <Z_o-s-o> Oloughlin75 Amarok is ok, but I like XMMS for music, and banshee for all things ipod
[03:48] <kaiden_> ok was trying to work on this a moment ago and didn't get far. I'm running Ubuntu 7.10. Using Gnome as my window manager, and it's using the graphical login run level (Xorg). I cannot get Xorg to close out (ctrl-alt-f1 does not work). I am attempting to drop out of Xorg to install new nvidia drivers from nvidia.com... Any help at all would be greatly appreciated.
[03:48] <fredmv> _oz_: if you could lend any insight I'd really appreciate it... I think it's likely something very simple that I'm just not grasping.
[03:49] <wease|> i like songbird
[03:49] <wease|> it rawks out
[03:49] <genii> Tokayla: On the problemmatic machine, please do command: testparm                this will dblcheck the smb.conf file does not have some obvious error
[03:49] <wease|> mozilla at its best
[03:49] <fredmv> Songbird is sweet.
[03:49] <fredmv> it's a great example of Gecko/XUL
[03:49] <fredmv> totally transparent
[03:49] <wease|> fredmv: agreed!
[03:49] <Tokayla> genii says the files okay
[03:49] <bulazeem> i hope there is a day that all computer software will work on linux operating systems with little to no extra work :(
[03:49] <genii> Tokayla: OK. 1 minute to think :)
[03:50] <_Oz_> fredmv: can't help you with that one
[03:50] <ng0n> uggg
[03:50] <_Oz_> fredmv: keep asking...  someone who knows how to fix it will eventually help
[03:50] <wease|> i even use songbird on my work box which is windows
[03:50] <speeddemon8803> bulazeem, that will be the day..as 90% of companies love their proprietary crap :P
[03:50] <Tokayla> genii it might be easyer to pm me .. its busy in here >_>
[03:50] <fredmv> Will do, _oz_.  Thanks for checking it out regardless.
[03:50] <ng0n> anyone want to help me for a sec ?
[03:50] <PsynoKhi0> bulazeem: only gotta wiat till microsoft releases something even more bloated than vista
[03:50] <m0u5e> PsynoKhi0: is that possible?
[03:50] <_Oz_> fredmv: sorry I couldn't be of more help...  good luck
[03:50] <genii> Tokayla: OK. If something more comes to mind I will
[03:50] <fredmv> the weird thing is that it used to work before; meaning I evidently changed something to stop it from working.
[03:51] <PsynoKhi0> m0u5e: don't underestimate them
[03:51] <speeddemon8803> Grandpa!
[03:51] <Nubbie> i'm going to wipe out my vista installation and install XP pro my mom heisted from her job lol.
[03:51] <grandpa> hello :)
[03:51] <PsynoKhi0> m0u5e: they apparently didn't learn from the ME attempt...
[03:51] <speeddemon8803> heh, im sorry..i just love seeing that name pop up in here, get good memories :P
[03:51] <m0u5e> PsynoKhi0: lol
[03:51] <xTheGoat121x> Nubbie, be careful installing that.
[03:51] <speeddemon8803> yikes, floodbot got activated :(
[03:52] <wease|> nubbie, it has a creamy filling that causes most people to become comatose
[03:52] <Nubbie> xTheGoat121x: why is that?
[03:52] <soulburner> question, im trying to configure a server by an XML, you cnnect to a local address <IP_ADDRESS>:7000, and it uses cybergate config, but firefox won't open it, what would i use to be able to do it?
[03:52] <PsynoKhi0> m0u5e: not everything is bad with vista thoyugh... made me look into ubuntu, it's still something positive
[03:52] <Kalamansi> jrib : okay done typing in terminal "gksudo nautilus" but i dont see my usb drive there in the "desktop" icon inside the gksudo nautilus...
[03:52] <_Oz_> Help me understand something, gang.  Will ALL Debian-based distros successfully install/manage updates for applications written for debian-based distros like Ubuntu?  For example, does Firefox "automatically" work in Debian as well as PCLinuxOS and Ubuntu?
[03:52] <fredmv> wease|:  you do any XUL dev?
[03:52] <jrib> Kalamansi: it should be on the left or, if not, look in /media
[03:52] <speeddemon8803> _oz_ for the most part yes
[03:53] <_Oz_> For the most part?
[03:53] <ng0n> oz.  .deb will install on debian base.
[03:53] <fredmv> _oz_: I think they're all one and the same.    At least, any deb package I've used has worked fine on Ubuntu... so...
[03:53] <_Oz_> How do you know, before you install, if it will work, speeddemon8803
[03:53] <_Oz_> ?
[03:53] <speeddemon8803> might have some package dependancy problems in different os's..but should work :)
[03:53] <speeddemon8803> if its a deb based os and your installing a deb file, it should work in all debian based system.
[03:53] <Oloughlin75> yay, only 10 hours left until my audio is converted!
[03:53] <xTheGoat121x> Nubbie, it depends on the license for it, and I'm sure that if your mom's company finds out, it could get her fired.
[03:53] <nickrud> _Oz_: no. Each distro is compiled as a piece, it's not generally a good idea to swap around. Not all os  package versions have the same dependencies
[03:53] <_Oz_> Is there a goal for all the debian-based distros to eventually reach a point where they're all cross-compatible with each other application-wise?
[03:53] <wease|> fredmv, nah. i would if i were a full time programmer
[03:53] <nickrud> _Oz_: as an example
[03:53] <ng0n> trying to dual boot Vista and Ubuntu is absurdly frustrating.
[03:54] <hdevalence> Where are the GTK settings stored?
[03:54] <nickrud> _Oz_: heh. No
[03:54] <maxownz> ng0n: i gave up on vista this week and just installed ubuntu instead
[03:54] <Kalamansi> jrib : i will paste it in var/cache/apt/archives right?
[03:54] <_Oz_> ng0n: it's easier if you install Vista FIRST and then add Ubuntu.
[03:54] <jrib> Kalamansi: yes
[03:54] <maxownz> i thought maybe something was wrong with my hardware cuz my computer would just crash all the time
[03:54] <_Oz_> M$ likes to completely ignore the possibility that the user might dare to run an alternate OS beside theirs.
[03:54] <ng0n> oz.  i got Vista running.
[03:54] <Nubbie> xTheGoat121x: it's okay, they gave her her own license for it. it's not a group license. also, they terminated her contract illegally, so they can suck my left nut.
[03:54] <gyaresu> anyone had any experience with making livecd or liveusb with nvidia/ati drivers for running 3D accel games from (Tribes2 is what I'm wanting to run).
[03:54] <nickrud> _Oz_: at least no active work towards that, I think many think it's a good idea but
[03:54] <fredmv> wease|:  yeah, I've only done minimal stuff, but it's pretty easy.  what's cool about it is its minimal XML to get a GUI together, and then if you know JavaScript, you can make pretty robust, cross-platform apps.  Very overlooked stuff for many.
[03:54] <ng0n> i just can't get back into Ubuntu  !$#!
[03:55] <ng0n> what is the sytax to boot /dev/hda2/ from CD ?
[03:55] <xTheGoat121x> Nubbie, all right then!  LoL  Nice snag on your part, in that case.
[03:55] <PsynoKhi0> grub?
[03:55] <Kalamansi> jrib : 240 debs total. is this fair enough? or i have to download all other "or" there is more updates that i want?
[03:55] <_Oz_> nickrud: it's a bit confusing.  How do you know which applications work in which distro?
[03:55] <maxownz> now that i have ubuntu installed the system has been up for almost 4 days with no problems
[03:55] <jrib> Kalamansi: seems fine
[03:55] <Kalamansi> jrib : thanks done copying.
[03:55] <Nubbie> xTheGoat121x: mmhrmm. and she managed to heist adobe acrobat professional too lol.
[03:55] <Oloughlin75> _Oz_, the repos help
[03:55] <phpusmo> How can I back up a partition to a cd?
[03:55] <nickrud> _Oz_: ones that have been explicitly built for that distro. Also, nearly all interpreted languages (perl, etc) will swap around
[03:55] <_Oz_> ng0n: did you install vista after ubuntu?
[03:55] <_Oz_> Oloughlin75: how do they help?
[03:56] <ng0n> oz.  yes
[03:56] <icesword> anyone is going to work on my starting 63sector of my disk,seems it is not right?
[03:56] <_Oz_> ng0n: that's the reason why.
[03:56] <Oloughlin75> _Oz_, everything in ubuntu's repos will work with ubuntu
[03:56] <prince_jammys> !grub | ng0n
[03:56] <ubotu> ng0n: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[03:56] <_Oz_> ng0n: stand by, I'll give you a link to get GRUB back.
[03:56] <Kalamansi> jrib : thank you =) how to download ahain all the updates of ubuntu 7.10 desktop mate? apt-get install updates+all is not working....
[03:56] <phpusmo> Before installing Ubuntu I want to back up the ghost drive so if I ever need XP back I can just pop in the backed up dvd and restore.
[03:56] <Oloughlin75> _Oz_, assuming no dependancy problems
[03:56] <icesword> anyone is going to work on my starting 63sector of my disk,seems it is not right?
[03:56] <speeddemon8803> _oz_ no need now :P
[03:56] <ng0n> T NX
[03:56] <jrib> Kalamansi: apt-get upgrade   right?
[03:56] <_Oz_> ng0n: http://apcmag.com/dualboot
[03:56] <wease|> fredmv, right on. i really like how mozilla has worked it out with their projects
[03:56] <grandpa> sweetsinse, where is the sources.list located?
[03:57] <speeddemon8803> !sources | grandpa
[03:57] <ubotu> grandpa: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories
[03:57] <icesword> anyone is going to work on my starting 63sector of my disk,seems it is not right?
[03:57] <ng0n> if i could just boot Ubuntu on the hd i could run grub.
[03:57] <_Oz_> Oloughlin75: what exactly do you mean by "dependency" problems? I vaguely understand.
[03:57] <Oloughlin75> /etc/apt/sources.list i think grandpa
[03:57] <PsynoKhi0> my USB hub works fine in puppy linux but not in xubuntu, any idea?
[03:57] <sn00zer> i can't login via ssh to my computer, it says permission denied 3 times with the last saying (publickey,password), user is valid user on remote host, password is correct, accepted the rsa key what could be stopping it?
[03:57] <speeddemon8803> check out the last part, i do believe thats what you want :)
[03:57] <soulburner> question, im trying to configure a server by an XML, you cnnect to a local address <IP_ADDRESS>:7000, and it uses cybergate config, but firefox won't open it, what would i use to be able to do it?
[03:57] <_Oz_> ng0n: read the link I sent you
[03:57] <nickrud> icesword: phrased like that, no one even understands what the problem is
[03:57] <ng0n> can't i boot /dev/hda2 from CD ?
[03:57] <ng0n> ok ok.
[03:57] <_Oz_> ng0n: this is what normally happens when you install vista AFTER ubuntu
[03:57] <phpusmo> Before installing Ubuntu I want to back up the ghost drive so if I ever need XP back I can just pop in the backed up dvd and restore.
[03:57] <ng0n> i will  tnx very much.
[03:58] <Oloughlin75> _Oz_, you cant have some programs install with versions of other programs, or they clash/crash/wont work
[03:58] <Tornadoman97> hello?
[03:58] <_Oz_> M$ tramples your bootloader.  Ubuntu is still in there but you have to recover GRUB.
[03:58] <Kalamansi> jrib : it says there done. but still 240 debs...
[03:58] <prince_jammys> ng0n: no, you have to repair grub
[03:58] <speeddemon8803> M$ is mean
[03:58] <prince_jammys> !grub  | ng0n
[03:58] <ubotu> ng0n: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[03:58] <IndyGunFreak> Oloughlin75: like what?
[03:58] <Kalamansi> jrib : apt-get install upgrades update is not working too
[03:58] <_Oz_> prince_jammys: I've seen that link but I'd have to say the APCmag link is a better tutorial
[03:58] <_Oz_> this one: http://apcmag.com/dualboot
[03:58] <Nubbie> i usually fix grub using the ubuntu livecd.
[03:58] <Oloughlin75> IndyGunFreak, i dont have a specific exampe :/
[03:59] <speeddemon8803> im getting kubuntu for christmas..yay!
[03:59] <blink148> HEY! somene - I've got three possible attacks and my firewall keeps closing
[03:59] <wease|> sn00zer, got a firewall loaded?
[03:59] <speeddemon8803> j/k..downloading it right now :)
[03:59] <jrib> Kalamansi: but that's not what I said?
[03:59] <IndyGunFreak> Oloughlin75: my guess si, there are VERY VERY few, and most users wouldn't run into them
[03:59] <blink148> I used sudo so now it shows an error - can anyone help out?
[03:59] <Oloughlin75> IndyGunFreak, I have :) i had like 5 updates that would break packages
[03:59] <sn00zer> wease|, just default settings i believe
[03:59] <blink148> MEMORY ERROR GSlice assertion failed sinfo ->nallocated > 0
[03:59] <IndyGunFreak> thats an update issue..
[04:00] <IndyGunFreak> not because you're using 2 programs
[04:00] <sn00zer> wease|, it wouldn't have anything to do with connecting over wifi would it?
[04:00] <blink148> whos who talking to
[04:00] <blink148> :S
[04:00] <wease|> sn00zer
[04:00] <wease|> nah
[04:00] <Kalamansi> jrib : apt-get upgrade "yah i did this but it does not download all" .. any other way? id like to download it all because i want skype work and yahoo messenger work...
[04:00] <wease|> try doin su -l
[04:00] <fallore> blink148: try to keep your questions to one long message, much easier to address
[04:00] <edju> join #gentoo
[04:00] <speeddemon8803> omg...my processor is HOT! :(
[04:00] <Oloughlin75> IndyGunFreak, cant dependancies from 2 programs conflist with eachother?
[04:00] <jrib> Kalamansi: what do you mean by "download all"
[04:01] <Kalamansi> jrib : maybe i really need all the upgrades
[04:01] <_Oz_> speeddemon8803: cool it down
[04:01] <phpusmo> Before installing Ubuntu I want to back up the ghost drive so if I ever need XP back I can just pop in the backed up dvd and restore.
[04:01] <Oloughlin75> IndyGunFreak, like you cant install x program because itll beak another program?
[04:01] <IndyGunFreak> Oloughlin75: sure they *could*, but its pretty unlikely.
[04:01] <Kalamansi> jrib : i want to download all the updates...
[04:01] <speeddemon8803> _oz_ my cooling pad is broken :(
[04:01] <IndyGunFreak> Oloughlin75: olike i said, i think those instances are pretty few..
[04:01] <Hewus> Anyone know how I can remove the giant lost+found folders on each of my partitions?
[04:01] <Kalamansi> jrib : and im not sure if all updates is 240 files..
[04:01] <phpusmo> does anyone know how?
[04:01] <jrib> Kalamansi: apt-get upgrade  downloads and installs all of the available upgrades for your system
[04:01] <grandpa> sweetsinse, could you help me set up a secure vnc server...without nomachien?
[04:01] <IndyGunFreak> Oloughlin75: i will say, 2 full years of running ubuntu, and i've never had an issue like that
[04:01] <speeddemon8803> i run a laptop with a belkin cooling pad....the fan seems to always junk on me :(
[04:02] <nickrud> Oloughlin75: IndyGunFreak: there are some (off hand I don't remember any, but they are more common than you think)
[04:02] <blink148> I think someone is purposedly overflowing my firewall - this possible?
[04:02] <grandpa> sweetsinse, machine*
[04:02] <_Oz_> blink148: pretty unlikely
[04:02] <IndyGunFreak> nickrud: amazed i've never ran into it.
[04:02] <wease|> sn00zer, tried it?
[04:02] <kaiden> if one wants to install the libc headers (while installing the nvidia drivers) does anyone know the package name that apt-get calls it?
[04:02] <speeddemon8803> blink, unless your running ubuntu server, nobody can really touch your pc as all ports are closed by default in ubuntu desktop edition :)
[04:02] <_Oz_> speeddemon8803: FIX it!
[04:02] <nickrud> IndyGunFreak: mostly obscure stuff that servers use
[04:02] <speeddemon8803> oz...i cant man...i tried :(
[04:02] <jrib> !nvidia > kaiden (read the private message from ubotu)
[04:02] <maxownz> are there command line tools for ripping dvds? i know i can burn a dvd via command line
[04:02] <_Oz_> speeddemon8803: SHUT IT DOWN!
[04:02] <matthias> hi anyine have an bcm4328 zip file that is workimng
[04:02] <wease|> _oz_, when all else fails...FSCK it!!
[04:03] <_Oz_> wease|: heheheh
[04:03] <speeddemon8803> oz, dun gotta scream at me :(
[04:03] <IndyGunFreak> nickrud: well, that explains why i've never had the issue, idon't mess w/ server
[04:03] <speeddemon8803> i think im ok though
[04:03] <PsynoKhi0> in xubuntu: hal-device-manager sees an USB key when I plug it in but I get no automount, if I mount manually, the USB disconnects after a few seconds trying to access the key's content
[04:03] <nickrud> kaiden: build-essential  and  linux-headers-$(name -r)  <-- those are the kernel headers, you need those as well
[04:03] <_Oz_> speeddemon8803: just trying to convey a sense of urgency...  don't let that mother burn!
[04:03] <blink148> Ports -<PHONE_NUMBER> 471
[04:03] <Kalamansi> jrib : yah apt-get upgrade.. done that. but i dont receive anything. it says reading dependency : done, building dependency : done, reading state : done
[04:03] <_Oz_> speeddemon8803: ok.  Phew
[04:03] <tyler_d> I'm looking to find any files that contain "string" need to verify that as root if I run 'grep -r "string" /' this will produce that result?
[04:03] <IndyGunFreak> nickrud: but i didn't say impossible, just unlikely
[04:03] <speeddemon8803> computer hasnt given me errors so im sure im ok :)
[04:03] <blink148> should be a space in there
[04:03] <sweetsinse> grandpa like for session shawdowing, srry i ran to the store
[04:03] <jrib> Kalamansi: then there is nothing left to upgrade
[04:03] <Kalamansi> jrib : how to force ubuntu website so i could download all the packages/updates?
[04:04] <wease|> that would take an act of congress
[04:04] <sn00zer> wease|, firestarter is disabled
[04:04] <grandpa> sweetsinse, i just want to be able to access the desktop elsewhere...simply...securely...
[04:04] <TrustNoOne> can someone help me with a sound issue please? if anyone knows about sound issues
[04:04] <IdleOne> Kalamansi if it is saying done then it is done. there are no other updates right nopw for your system
[04:04] <prince_jammys> nickrud: missing a u (uname)
[04:04] <grandpa> sweesinse, i'm running out of time...:)
[04:04] <_Oz_> !firestarter
[04:04] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[04:04] <wease|> sn00zer, did you try su -l ?
[04:04] <speeddemon8803> !sound | TrustNoOne
[04:04] <ubotu> TrustNoOne: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[04:05] <IdleOne> hide your wallets and peanuts! nalioth is here
[04:05] <nickrud> prince_jammys: heh. kaiden a typo:  linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[04:05] <speeddemon8803> If that fails, let us know :)
[04:05] <_Oz_> I love linux's built-in supremacy over virii
[04:05] <phpusmo>  Before installing Ubuntu I want to back up the ghost drive so if I ever need XP back I can just pop in the backed up dvd and restore. How can I do this?
[04:05] <Kalamansi> jrib : hehehe im experimenting. i want "friendsblasterpro" work in ubuntu. also dreamweavercs3,photoshopcs3,directory submitter...
[04:05] <_Oz_> and attacks
[04:05] <nickrud> prince_jammys: heh means thanks ;)
[04:05] <Kalamansi> jrib : i cannot afford windows license
[04:05] <speeddemon8803> _oz_: Me too! :)
[04:05] <JoshuaRL> right on _oz_
[04:05] <prince_jammys> nickrud: no prob too lazy to retype and didnt want to butt in
[04:05] <prince_jammys> nickrud: :)
[04:06] <nickrud> prince_jammys: I give you blanket permission to fix my screwups ;p
[04:06] <phpusmo> no one here knows?
[04:06] <wease|> _oz_, resiliency that the masses have no clue about
[04:06] <matthias> hi anybody have an funcional bcm4328 v1 zip file that works ?
[04:06] <grandpa> sweetsinse, is that possible with remote desktop? secure?
[04:06] <grandpa> sweetsinse, i haven't been able to get vnc working lately
[04:06] <grandpa> sweetsinse, actually.....at all
[04:06] <sn00zer> wease|, su -l then ssh user@host?
[04:06] <Kalamansi> anyone tried running "friendblasterpro,directory submitter"?
[04:07] <prince_jammys> friendblaster, wow
[04:07] <prince_jammys> what's that?
[04:07] <Kalamansi> jrib : thanks for your help, i appreciate it. =)
[04:07] <speeddemon8803> sounds like some form of windows virus :P
[04:07] <_Oz_> wease|: yeah, I came to Ubuntu after a virus took down my XP box to the point I had to completely reinstall...  cost me three days of my life...  I already hated Vista so I knew I was either Linux or Mac-bound...  I installed Ubuntu and the rest was history.
[04:07] <prince_jammys> great name
[04:07] <Kalamansi> prince_jammys : its like collecting all friends in myspace
[04:07] <_Oz_> They can't get me anymore!
[04:07] <mikedep333> hey, I need a quick way to create an HTML photo gallery (on ubuntu 7.10)
[04:07] <Kalamansi> speeddemon8803 hehehe
[04:07] <ng0n> oz: thanks bro.  all fixed  (forgot the root (hd0,1) statement.. uggg
[04:07]  * speeddemon8803 puts it on my windows partition to see if it trashes it ;)
[04:07] <_Oz_> Linux is so superior...  just really wish the apps I need were all available in Ubuntu.
[04:07] <speeddemon8803> if it does..yay.
[04:07] <_Oz_> I'm able to do about 90% of what I need in Linux
[04:08] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: ssh host -l user
[04:08] <Oloughlin75> _Oz_, what cant you do?
[04:08] <_Oz_> But for that 10%, I have to keep rebooting into XP which is time-consuming and annoying.
[04:08] <sdsheeks> _Oz_: as in?
[04:08] <Kalamansi> and also how to work yahoo messenger in ubuntu 7.10 desktop with voice and cam? hehehehe do you think ubuntu can handle this?
[04:08] <speeddemon8803> !virtualization > speeddemon8803
[04:08] <_Oz_> Oloughlin75: photoshop, illustrator primarily.  Also AutoCAD.
[04:08] <sweetsinse> _Oz_ yeah as in i was going to say 2 haha
[04:08] <grandpa> speeddemon8803, could you help me set up vnc....maybe w/ a little security :)?
[04:08] <tyler_d> _Oz_: try qemu if you have enough horsepower
[04:08] <ng0n> yes.. i have WIN aps I have to run.  wish i didn't.  not many...
[04:08] <sdsheeks> _Oz_: ah..did you see google is sponsoring something with phoshop for linux?
[04:08] <sweetsinse> what is so superior about photoshop
[04:08] <tyler_d> _Oz_: or you could try an alternative.. ie. gimpshop
[04:09] <Oloughlin75> _Oz_, blender is supposed to be a good cad replacment, and we already had the gimp discussion (no experience here with blender, but autcad is awesome)
[04:09] <tyler_d> _Oz_: or if you do some hunting I believe there is a guy that got it all working with wine
[04:09] <sn00zer> sdsheeks, wease| still denying me
[04:09] <_Oz_> tyler_d: nonw of the emulators really do what must be doen to make these apps useful in ubuntu.  it's just not happening.
[04:09] <ng0n> oz. tnx agn.  bye
[04:09] <nickrud> gimpshop is based on an old gimp, gimp people say it doesn't have some serious bug fixes
[04:09] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: what is the exact error msg?
[04:09] <_Oz_> sdsheeks: I did see that!  Awesome.
[04:09] <wease|> sn00zer, you need to go with single user mode....otherwise you wont get root access
[04:09] <_Oz_> ng0n: you bet.
[04:09] <sdsheeks> _Oz_: yup hopefully the get something rolling.
[04:09] <Z_o-s-o> woo 3days 18 hrs of uptime
[04:09] <grandpa> sweetsinse, how can i quickly and securely set up vnc?
[04:09] <sweetsinse> grandpa im not sure, i know vnc is used to tunnel thru freenx, and thus 256 bit ssh, but i dont know if you will still be exposed
[04:09] <_Oz_> tyler_d: I can't go to any alternate.  It has to be photoshop and illustrator.  "There can be no substitute"
[04:10] <matthias> hey everybody where can i funcional bcm43xxx zip file for 7.10 ?
[04:10] <sn00zer> wease|, i don't need root access, i'm trying to connect to a regular user
[04:10] <_Oz_> Now for M$ Office, I happily substitute it with OpenOffice
[04:10] <Oloughlin75> matthias, youll probably need to use ndiswrapper!
[04:10] <tyler_d> _Oz_: then search through the wine documentation and start tweeking
[04:10] <nickrud> Z_o-s-o: 8 days, 4:16 and that's pitiful ;)
[04:10] <wease|> sn00zer, FWIK ssh requires root
[04:10] <sn00zer> sdsheeks, permission denied, like a wrong password but i know its correct
[04:10] <sweetsinse> grandpa i think you would still be visible to regular vnc clients on the stndard port
[04:10] <_Oz_> But if you're a web/graphics professional you absolutely must have Photoshop and Illustrator.
[04:10] <_Oz_> :*
[04:10] <_Oz_> :(
[04:10] <JoshuaRL> !wireless
[04:10] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[04:10] <RedHeron> ^5 _Oz_
[04:10] <RedHeron> GIMP
[04:10] <bullgard4> Why embraces http://qref.sourceforge.net/Debian/reference/reference.en.txt many expressions with a character` at the beginning and a chaacter ' at the end instead of using two like characters, for example " or ' or `?
[04:10] <matthias> yes but i have that one ...oloughlin ...
[04:10] <Oloughlin75> _Oz_, Office is actually pretty good
[04:10] <RedHeron> GIMPshop FTW
[04:10] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: if yo uare getting permission denied it is not even leeting you run ssh
[04:10] <tyler_d> _Oz_: no its not a must.....
[04:10] <Rael> can someone please give me a hand reinstalling grub. I followed the intructions on the ubuntu website but nothing is working. (this happend after reinstalling windows)
[04:10] <grandpa> sweetsinse, here is what i did...i went to pref-->remote desktop..checked all the boxes...went to firewall and opened ports only for my other ip addres...and still cannot access it :(
[04:10] <RedHeron> _Oz_: GIMPshop FTW
[04:10] <speeddemon8803> someone say my name?
[04:11] <sweetsinse> i think ppl ust learned on photoshop an have a harder time going to go
[04:11] <sweetsinse> gimp
[04:11] <_Oz_> tyler_d: it IS a must, unfortunately.  No two ways about it. :(
[04:11] <tyler_d> speeddemon8803
[04:11] <RedHeron> speeddemon8803: Not that I'm aware of... I could be wrong.
[04:11] <Scunizi> _Oz_, have you tried gimp with the mods.. gimpshop.. it rearranges the menu structure to mirror photoshop
[04:11] <speeddemon8803> hmmm
[04:11] <speeddemon8803> my notification went nuts
[04:11] <wease|> thank you captain obvious!
[04:11] <JoshuaRL> Rael, try supergrub itll install grub for you.  great live cd
[04:11]  * speeddemon8803 shrugs..oh well :)
[04:11] <sweetsinse> i have used photoshop once or twice, but have made a number of cool things with gimp
[04:11] <ropiee> hello
[04:11] <RedHeron> sweetsinse: I learned on Photoshop, I now use GIMPshop
[04:11] <_Oz_> If I was just playing around and not doing this for a living, gimp would probably be fine.
[04:11] <matthias> i am following and i strucions in the ubunto formuns where telling me to download an bcm43xx zip file but at the point of extraction it tell me  the zip file might not be an zip file ...
[04:11] <sn00zer> wease|, i can ssh from the laptop back to the desktop without root involved on either machine
[04:11] <ropiee> i need to help plss
[04:11] <RedHeron> _Oz_: I'm a GD.
[04:11] <tyler_d>  _Oz_: for you its a must... I have 3 floors of web/graphics developers and only 1/2 of them use mainstream
[04:11] <_Oz_> I have not heard of gimpshop, though.  I'm listening.  Tell me more...
[04:11] <Z_o-s-o> nickrud yeah this is my laptop
[04:12] <speeddemon8803> !ask | ropiee
[04:12] <ubotu> ropiee: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[04:12] <RedHeron> _Oz_: GIMP w/ Photoshop layout
[04:12] <Scunizi> Rael, check out http://users.bigpond.net.au/hermanzone/p15.htm
[04:12] <wease|> sn00zer one must be setup as single user mode and the other not
[04:12] <ropiee> how to full screen remote desktop
[04:12] <sdsheeks> While i'm here does anyone know of a gui for clamav?
[04:12] <_Oz_> tyler_d: (shrug) we don't really need to argue over it. For what I do and the people I interact with, there is no choice but to use photoshop.
[04:12] <wease|> my only guess
[04:12] <wease|> im off to bed
[04:12] <ropiee> rdesktop <IP_ADDRESS>
[04:12] <RedHeron> _Oz_: Filters are where you expect them, etc.
[04:12] <wease|> night folks
[04:12] <_Oz_> redheron: tell me more.
[04:12] <nickrud> Z_o-s-o: likewise :p (I do like suspend/hibernate)
[04:12] <JoshuaRL> peace weasel
[04:12] <matthias> oloughlin could my 7.10 be failingh me
[04:12] <zelrikriando> I rarely use openoffice
[04:12] <ropiee> i want remote my other computer
[04:12] <RedHeron> _Oz_: That's a "try it and see".
[04:12] <ropiee> use windows 2003
[04:12] <speeddemon8803> rdesktop <IP_ADDRESS>:0 -fullscreen
[04:12] <_Oz_> Also, tyler_d, what do you propose be done to substitute for illustrator?
[04:12] <nickrud> Z_o-s-o: actually I was suprised it was that high
[04:12] <zelrikriando> I have got better tools
[04:12] <tyler_d>  _Oz_: right... I would suggest you at least give gimpshop a try.... I have it on my tablet and its beautiful
[04:12] <sweetsinse> grandpa did ya get freenx installed
[04:13] <sdsheeks> zelrikriando: i have to admit I installed crossover for MS office due to work requirements.
[04:13] <ropiee> ok
[04:13] <Scunizi> ropiee, terminal server client  applications/internet
[04:13] <ropiee> thx speed
[04:13] <_Oz_> I will check gimpshop out!
[04:13] <speeddemon8803> welcome
[04:13] <_Oz_> Can you save .PSDs with it?
[04:13] <Z_o-s-o> nickrud suspend / hibernate keeps the uptime frozen right instead of setting it to 0 again?
[04:13] <grandpa> sweetsinse, yes, but vnc is easier...and i certainly want to try it...but, out of time :(
[04:13] <RedHeron> _Oz_: Yes.
[04:13] <tyler_d>  _Oz_: yes
[04:13] <speeddemon8803> if that doesnt work ropiee, come back and we can try another route :)
[04:13] <sn00zer> sdsheeks, i'm pretty sure its running, it prompts for a password to connect to remote host, then rejects the password
[04:13] <ropiee> ok
[04:13] <nickrud> Z_o-s-o: I'm not sure, I think it keeps ticking
[04:13] <grandpa> sweetsinse, have to catch at least a few ZZZ's before the sun comes up :)
[04:13] <ropiee> i will try now
[04:13] <_Oz_> Will fonts come across exactly the same way in the real PS?
[04:13] <ropiee> wait
[04:13] <sweetsinse> haha ok
[04:13] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: then you get permission denied?
[04:13] <_Oz_> kerning, etc?
[04:13] <johndbritton> i accidentally deleted the mysql root user, is there any way to restore the user?
[04:13] <sn00zer> sdsheeks, yes
[04:13] <tyler_d>  _Oz_: illistrator.. hrmmmm.... thats one you will have to hit someone else up on man
[04:13] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: could be that no shell is set for that user?
[04:13] <RedHeron> _Oz_: I've had to set up kerning tables, but yes.
[04:14] <nickrud> Z_o-s-o: when I suspend tonight, I'll check. Interesting question
[04:14] <sweetsinse> grandpa the speed of freenx is phenomenal
[04:14] <_Oz_> kerning tables? that sounds scary
[04:14] <sweetsinse> so worth the time
[04:14] <grandpa> sweetsinse, that is what i've heard.
[04:14] <iTF|Prometheus> Hi - just wondering if anyone is familiar with ffmpeg. My -s option for size does not seem to work output streams are always 640x480
[04:14] <RedHeron> _Oz_: Not half as scare as CS3.
[04:14] <matthias> i went to this page but can not extract this file menion ed in step 2d: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Feisty_No-Fluff#head-9192b3c227e128044894727c4b85a57abee8a0c9
[04:14] <sweetsinse> near local responsveness
[04:14] <speeddemon8803> oh, by the way everyone, virtualbox ROCKS!
[04:14] <Scunizi> _Oz_, illistrator maybe inkscape or scribus
[04:14] <nickrud> johndbritton: you should ask on #mysql
[04:14] <Z_o-s-o> nickrud i tend to leave by comps running 24/7
[04:14] <tyler_d> now back to my initial question: I want to search all files for "string".... is it 'grep -r "string" /' ??
[04:14] <RedHeron> s/scare/scary
[04:14] <_Oz_> speeddemon8803: what about virtualbox rocks? I haven't tried it yet.
[04:14] <matthias> can you ?
[04:14] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: okay it might also be with the key
[04:14] <grandpa> sweetsinse, what is vnc port number?
[04:14] <Rael> I tried supergrub but it did not work when I got the the part to reinstall it just locks up
[04:14] <ahorriblemess> hey everyone, I was wondering if someone can help me connect (wifi network) to my XP computer... I've read through forums, I have samba, and I can ping the XP box... but I can't seem to figure out how to access the shared files from the Ubuntu machine to the XP machine.I want to download files from XP
[04:14] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: change to your user home dir and then to .ssh
[04:14] <speeddemon8803> _oz_:everything
[04:14] <Scunizi> grandpa, 5200
[04:14] <RedHeron> _Oz_: You can run Windows in a window on Virtualbox.
[04:15] <matthias> my ubunto 7.10 tells me the zip file is not an zip file ...
[04:15] <_Oz_> Scunizi: I could probably stand to switch from Illustrator since I don't use it as much, but I do need the ability to save .AIs and open them
[04:15] <sn00zer> sdsheeks, ok i'm in .ssh
[04:15] <_Oz_> RedHeron: yeah, I knew that...  I was just wondering how well it worked
[04:15] <Scunizi> _Oz_, you can run windows in a window on gnome, kde, xfce.. sorry .ai's are tough.. nothing doing here for that.
[04:15] <Z_o-s-o> did i mention that K3B is the best linux program ever?
[04:15] <RedHeron> _Oz_: Illustrator is the only one I still switch machines at work to use.
[04:15] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: do an ls and let me know if you see any rsa files in there
[04:16] <JoshuaRL> rael, boot into the recovery console in the windows install disk and type "fixmbr" and "fixboot"
[04:16] <prohna> hi all
[04:16] <_Oz_> redheron: if I have to switch for one I might as well switch for both. :(
[04:16] <Scunizi> _Oz_, could you export .ai's as postscript or something and import them?
[04:16] <sn00zer> sdsheeks, only see known_hosts
[04:16] <JoshuaRL> rael, then use supergrub to reinstall grub
[04:16] <grandpa> sweetsinse, for now is it okay to have vnc running and telling firestarter to only open the ports for my other ip?
[04:16] <grandpa> sweetsinse, secure enough?
[04:16] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: who is the owner?
[04:16] <prohna> is there a way to wipe my install to a fresh ubuntu without reinstalling the OS?
[04:16] <RedHeron> _Oz_: Virtualbox FTW.
[04:16] <grandpa> sweetsinse, for now? :)
[04:16] <ropiee> rdesktop <IP_ADDRESS>:0 -fullscreen <---cant work speed
[04:16] <_Oz_> Scunizi: maybe...  but from a practical perspective, probably not.  People expect to exchange those files freely with me.
[04:16] <zelrikriando> sdsheeks: what formats are you using?
[04:16] <prohna> as in basically undo every mistake ive done in the past few days?
[04:16] <sdsheeks> zelrikriando: for what? office?
[04:16] <sn00zer> sdsheeks, i am the owner
[04:16] <zelrikriando> yeah
[04:17] <speeddemon8803> prohna, not that im aware of
[04:17] <sean_> For gedit's external tools, how do I save the open file as a part of the command?
[04:17] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: try moving it to an old file and try to ssh again.
[04:17] <zelrikriando> I mean what part of office you use
[04:17] <sweetsinse> grandpa i would put oit on a nonstandard port
[04:17] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: mv known_hosts known_hosts.old
[04:17] <_Oz_> redheron: I'll try it...
[04:17] <ropiee> hello speeddeaemon
[04:17] <prohna> dang
[04:17] <sdsheeks> zelrikriando: project 2007
[04:17] <ropiee> can u help me pls
[04:17] <_Oz_> redheron: how would illustrator run in virtualbox?
[04:17] <Scunizi> prohna, if you have a seperate /home just reinstall and don't format /home when doing it.. all your stuff will still be there.
[04:17] <grandpa> sweetsinse, how would i change that?
[04:17] <prohna> i messed my install up its gonna suck to reinstall
[04:17] <_Oz_> speeddemon8803, that Q goes for you as well...
[04:17] <RedHeron> _Oz_: Install Windows in the virtualbox
[04:17] <sweetsinse> grandpa i set some ppl up before i had freenx ready so i could remote help them, and they started getting random requests
[04:17] <prohna> Scunizi: i dont care about my stuff
[04:17] <sweetsinse> um dont know of hand
[04:17] <prohna> Scunizi: i just want an "undo" button
[04:17] <ropiee> how to full screen remote desktop
[04:18] <RedHeron> _Oz_: Then install AI on Windows in Virtualbox
[04:18] <_Oz_> redheron: heh, would vista install in virtualbox? (not that I'd install that monstrosity, but... would that work?)
[04:18] <sweetsinse> ropiee are you using vnc
[04:18] <Rael> how do I get into the recovery console? I did not see that option
[04:18] <sn00zer> sdsheeks, still does it, do i need to do this on the remote host as well?
[04:18] <RedHeron> _Oz_: It does.
[04:18] <speeddemon8803> ropiee, i did tell you how to do that, did you take notes?
[04:18] <_Oz_> I like the idea of containing Vista's evils into a little box
[04:18] <ropiee> to remote windows 2003 from my unbuntu
[04:18] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: you can try
[04:18] <sweetsinse> ahh
[04:18] <zelrikriando> sdsheeks: ok that looks quite specific
[04:18] <sweetsinse> nvr mind i know nothing about windoze
[04:18] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: this is what i was looking at - http://help.unc.edu/?id=6220
[04:18] <RedHeron> _Oz_: It's not recommended practice (using Vista), but it does work.
[04:18] <matthias> hello are you there ?
[04:18] <Scunizi> prohna, depends on what you've messed up .. but most things are "un-doable" without a reinstall.
[04:18] <ropiee> i`m type : rdesktop <IP_ADDRESS>:0 -fullscreen
[04:18] <JoshuaRL> its one of the F-keys i believe rael.  been a while though.  just try to get into whatever options you can.
[04:18] <Scunizi> prohna, sometimes it's just quicker to reinstall.. 40 minutes tops.
[04:18] <vrkhans> to run terminal what is the command we use
[04:18] <nickrud> matthias: nope
[04:18] <iTF|Prometheus> Hi - just wondering if anyone is familiar with ffmpeg. My -s option for size does not seem to work output streams are always 640x480. i'm trying to convert some flv files to use on my psp
[04:19] <sdsheeks> zelrikriando: if there is an alt os program that i can use I would be all for it.
[04:19] <sweetsinse> --fullscreen perhaps?
[04:19] <matthias> too bad
[04:19] <vrkhans> i am creating a luancher
[04:19] <speeddemon8803> it might be --fullscreen, i might have missed a -
[04:19] <sdsheeks> zelrikriando: the other pieces word, excel etc..i can use Oo for
[04:19] <vrkhans> for the Terminal
[04:19] <speeddemon8803> but im sure its that flag
[04:19] <grandpa> sweetsinse, how do i change the vnc port though?
[04:19] <nickrud> matthias: you're not the first to tell me that
[04:19] <_Oz_> darn, I was hoping to find a screenshot of what gimpshop looks like.
[04:19] <_Oz_> Can anyone supply one?
[04:19] <matthias> so you are another lost ppl nickrud
[04:19] <anderswc> what flag do I use to start emacs in terminal mode rather than graphical mode?
[04:19] <nickrud> matthias: :)
[04:19] <RedHeron> _Oz_: Looks like GIMP except the menus are actually in place.
[04:19] <sdsheeks> _Oz_: http://images.google.com/images?hl=en&q=gimpshop+screenshot&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=wi
[04:19] <_Oz_> redheron: realistically I'd just install XP in virtualvox
[04:20] <Scunizi> vrkhans, Applications/Accessories/terminal  it's already there.
[04:20] <matthias> nickrud :) all on the ice ...
[04:20] <matthias> ubuntu ice at least ...
[04:20] <RedHeron> _Oz_: That's all you'd need anyway... Vista would be bloat.
[04:20] <sweetsinse> grandpa im looking i dont know off hand
[04:20] <_Oz_> oh...  that screenshot doesn't look all too much like photoshop.
[04:20] <grandpa> sweetsinse, k thx..
[04:20] <_Oz_> I have all the hotkeys down pat in photoshop...  etc...  switching to gimp just seems impossible.
[04:20] <RedHeron> _Oz_: As I said... GIMP with sensible menus.
[04:20] <Scunizi> _Oz_, take a look at krita
[04:20] <JoshuaRL> matthais do you have kzip?
[04:20] <_Oz_> RedHeron: re: bloat, agree.
[04:20] <ropiee> how use vnc???
[04:21] <speeddemon8803> !vnc | ropiee
[04:21] <ubotu> ropiee: VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX
[04:21] <prohna> _Oz_: i heard theres a plugin for gimp that makes it like photoshop
[04:21] <_Oz_> prohna: yes, it's called "gimpshop"
[04:21] <RedHeron> _Oz_: I use GIMPshop, and the keys aren't all *that* different, they just take a *little* getting used to.
[04:21] <matthias> let me see i do not know..., thank you ..
[04:21] <vrkhans> Scunizi , i know i am creating a launcher on the panel , and it ask for the command to run
[04:21] <Rael> how do I get into the recovery console? i did not see that option
[04:21] <JoshuaRL> idk about looks prohna but it moves the menus to much more like photoshop
[04:21] <_Oz_> redheron: your gimp-generated PSDs open perfectly in photoshop?
[04:21] <ropiee> ok thx
[04:21] <nano__> Anybody know of any good gnome-system stats programs that monitor cpu,memory and stuff like that.
[04:21] <speeddemon8803> Ropiee, can I ask what is your native language?
[04:21] <sweetsinse> grandpa did ya catch that !
[04:22] <RedHeron> _Oz_: Yes, without so much as 1/100pt deviation.
[04:22] <_Oz_> nano__: try screenlets / sensors plugin
[04:22] <matthias> joshua the basic 7.10 does not seems to come with kzip ...
[04:22] <Aggort> Is there an IRC I can go to for PC building tips
[04:22] <grandpa> sweetsinse, uhuh!
[04:22] <RedHeron> _Oz_: All the basics are there, and writing new macros isn't hard to achieve new effects.
[04:22] <_Oz_> redheron: really? OK...  I will try it.  But as I said earlier, if I have boot outta Ubuntu for Illustrator anyway, there's not much point in bothering.  In the spirit of OSS, however, I'll try.
[04:22] <nano__> _Oz_: yeah, but screenlets are only bits and pieces of what i want...i want a comprehensive monitor program
[04:22] <RedHeron> _Oz_: That's why you should get Virtualbox
[04:23] <Scunizi> vrkhans, just right mouse click the menu item and tell it "add to panel".. from there you can look at the properties and see what the command is.
[04:23] <iTF|Prometheus> Rael, if you dont have Recon installed - boot from your XP Disc, untouched disc, so no service pack 2 and select recovery console.. If you have it installed - press F8 at boot and choose recovery console (If not in boot.ini)
[04:23] <_Oz_> redheron: it just seems like it'd be way too slow.
[04:23] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: work?
[04:23] <sn00zer> sdsheeks, not yet
[04:23] <matthias> Joshua will kzip  help me out with unzipping zip files
[04:23] <RedHeron> _Oz_: Virtualbox lets you run BOTH Windows and Ubuntu at the same time, and it's slower than normal, but not that bad, really.
[04:23] <speeddemon8803> Aggort, i think that would be an off-topic discussion, not sure...you can try asking that in #ubuntu-offtopic
[04:23] <Scunizi> vrkhans, just looked myself.. gnome-terminal
[04:23] <_Oz_> Redheron: yes, I understand what virtualbox is/does.
[04:23] <RedHeron> _Oz_: It's about like running AI and Photoshop at the same time, honestly.
[04:23] <JoshuaRL> mattias, it should
[04:23] <icesword> anyone is going to work on my starting 63sector of my disk,seems it is not right?
[04:23] <_Oz_> maybe this is a good excuse to upgrade my mobo/cpu...
[04:24] <RedHeron> _Oz_: I did, for less than $300
[04:24] <grandpa> sweetsinse, thx...g2g
[04:24] <_Oz_> icesword: my 84 byte partition is right, on my disk you work on?
[04:24] <_Oz_> redheron: you upgraded mobo/cpu for less than $300g?
[04:24] <RedHeron> _Oz_: Yes.
[04:24] <RedHeron> _Oz_: And RAM, too... Mushkin.
[04:24] <matthias> okey let me search the cd and see, the 7.10 is an pain so far ...
[04:25] <_Oz_> Here's a Q: I have an AGP nvidia card, a 7600...  I don't want to replace it right now ($$ reasons).  Is there a FAST, well-supported mobo/CPU I can get with AGP slots these days?
[04:25] <RedHeron> _Oz_: No.
[04:25] <sweetsinse> np peace grandpa
[04:25] <RedHeron> _Oz_: Everything's going EIDE
[04:25] <celi0us> _Oz_ : AGP is dead.
[04:25] <sn00zer> sdsheeks, i found it, it has a line "strictmodes" under authentication, on the one that works i have allowUsers with usernames
[04:25] <sdsheeks> sweetsinse: he left in a hurry
[04:25] <Scunizi> _Oz_, check out www.tigerdirect.com I saw some today.
[04:25] <sweetsinse> haha ok
[04:25] <genii> _Oz_: ASRock still makes some
[04:25] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: good job
[04:25]  * RedHeron shudders@tigerdirect
[04:25] <_Oz_> see, that's my prob
[04:25] <JoshuaRL> aw, i hope not matthias.  it just works differently than windows.  if only broadcom were cool with open source you'd be set.
[04:26] <genii> _Oz_: I have one with pcie and agp on it
[04:26] <matthias> Joshua tar, unzip and zip only in this distro 7.10 whatare you running ?
[04:26] <_Oz_> I think, if I'm going to upgrade my mobo, I will have to upgrade the vid card.  If I do all that, I might as well get a whole new machine.
[04:26] <RedHeron> _Oz_: My on-board video is nVidia 8400
[04:26] <tdawgedogg> can someone help me fix my display drivers for an nvida 7600 on gutsy
[04:26] <RedHeron> Er... 6400
[04:26] <sweetsinse> if you upgrade the mobo you will obbsolete your processor likey
[04:26]  * RedHeron gives up.
[04:26] <JoshuaRL> yeah 7.10 matthias.  i thought you wanted to unzip a zip.
[04:26] <_Oz_> tdawgedogg: that's my setup.  Did you use the restricted driver manager yet?
[04:26] <_Oz_> RedHeron: heheheh
[04:26] <matthias> joshua yes ..
[04:26] <_Oz_> RedHeron: thanks for the advice
[04:27] <RedHeron> _Oz_: np, glad I could help.
[04:27] <tdawgedogg> _OZ_: yes I did...nvidia drivers are in use
[04:27] <RedHeron> _Oz_: PM you?
[04:27] <_Oz_> sure
[04:27] <matthias> joshua but the unzip complains that the zip file is not an zip file ...?
[04:27] <sn00zer> sdsheeks, its still not working... i restarted the sshd server too
[04:27] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: and it gives you an permission denied eh? what user are you trying to connect as?
[04:27] <sn00zer> a user on the remote host
[04:28] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: not root?
[04:28] <JoshuaRL> okay matthias, try 7zip
[04:28] <slack_baphomet> what do i install to get sshd working
[04:28] <matthias> Joshua : i do not get it , zip file from the ubuntu forum named .zip and not an zip file ...?????
[04:28] <sn00zer> sdsheeks, no, i have no reason to connect as root, if i connect as normal user i can sudo after connected
[04:28] <TheFool> I have a rather odd problem and was wondering if someone can look into it.
[04:28] <TheFool> For some reason I can connect to my server fine from inside the network, but from outside when I try to connect to port 80 I connect to port 81...I know this would normally be in the router somewhere. But I assure you I have port forwarding set up correctly and have not changed it in over a year...I just renewed my domain but I am not sure how that would affect anything. But it is the only thing that has changed recently
[04:28] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: is this user one you recently created? can you login to the other machine as that user?
[04:28] <TheFool> It seems this is true of other ports as well, for instance I can ssh via port 21
[04:29] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: from the actual machine i mean
[04:29] <JoshuaRL> not sure matthias, maybe a KDE problem.  kzip is for that.  Try 7zip
[04:29] <matthias> not on the cd :(
[04:29] <blink148> can I not run 2 firewalls at once?
[04:29] <ph0rensic> whassup
[04:30] <matthias> sorry ...
[04:30] <blink148> the GUI for guarddog wont load
[04:30] <Scunizi> TheFool, port 80 is usually blocked by your isp..
[04:30]  * sdsheeks is a big 7z fan
[04:30] <sweetsinse> is gimpshop in the repos
[04:30] <Scunizi> no
[04:30] <JoshuaRL> no worries matthias
[04:30] <sn00zer> sdsheeks, my setup: desktop with username1 and laptop with username2, i had sshd running on desktop for awhile now and am able to connect to desktop from laptop as username on desktop
[04:30] <matthias> joshua i am looked to unzip, zip, uninstall 7.10 ???
[04:30] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: but not from desktop to laptop?
[04:31] <blink148> eh, can I run bulldog and firestarter at the same time?
[04:31] <sn00zer> sdsheeks, now i want to be able to connect to laptop from desktop but its giving me permission denied errors
[04:31] <matthias> joshua i am thinking downgrading to 6.06 instead ...
[04:31] <PriceChild> blink148, neither of those are firewalls
[04:31] <PriceChild> blink148, all they do are edit the rules of the real firewall, "iptables"
[04:31] <biouser> Gutsy is great imo
[04:31] <matthias> joshua and hope for the best ...
[04:31] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: okay understand.  My question was (trying to debug here) can you login to the laptop as the user you are trying to ssh as? IE from the laptop itself?
[04:31] <JoshuaRL> matthias i guess i don't understand what the issue is with 7zip
[04:32] <blink148> oh
[04:32] <blink148> well
[04:32] <JoshuaRL> and don't reinstall just yet matthias.  what exact type of modem do you have?
[04:32] <sn00zer> sdsheeks, yes
[04:32] <blink148> i think he keeps overflowing firestarter so how can I get bulldog to start up?
[04:32] <blink148> as it keeps crashing
[04:32] <sweetsinse> matthias you are trying to extraxt a .7z?
[04:32] <matthias> joshua the 7zip does not exists in 7.10 nor kzip ...
[04:33] <blink148> tried gksu gnome-bulldog also
[04:33] <matthias> i have an broadcom wirless intergated card in my dell e1705 thast the system will not detect but it is there in lspci
[04:33] <JoshuaRL> okay matthias, go to Add/Remove and type in "zip".  7zip should be the first one on the list.
[04:33] <matthias> joshua: bcm4328 version v1
[04:33] <kaiden> Is there any way to easily get the latest nvidia drivers via apt-get (without using the outdated one's that are in 7.10)
[04:34] <kaiden> apt-get uses 100.04 which we are up to 169.09
[04:34] <tdawgedogg> yeah im having problem with nivida drivers also
[04:34] <sweetsinse> yeah restricted driver manager should handle that
[04:34] <sweetsinse> the bcm43xx
[04:34] <matthias> Joshua, i did but 7zip is not on the list of programs to install under synaptic package menager ....
[04:34] <tdawgedogg> im using redstricted driver manager and im stuck in 800 x 600 res low graphics mode
[04:34] <kaiden> sweetsinse, restricted driver manager only has the 100.xx drivers, not the 169.09 drivers
[04:34] <JoshuaRL> okay matthias, give me a minute to look it up for you.
[04:34] <sweetsinse> ah is that where we are at
[04:34] <sweetsinse> kk
[04:35] <JoshuaRL> okay matthias i think i have a partial fix for you.
[04:35] <matthias> ok
[04:35] <tdawgedogg> i will try the same thing you do matthias
[04:35] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: on the laptop run this /usr/sbin/sshd -ddd
[04:35] <matthias>  jushua okey ...
[04:35] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: look for any errors
[04:36] <JoshuaRL> matthias: go to System->Administration->Software Sources.  make sure you have everything enabled except for the source code and the CD.
[04:36] <sdsheeks> root :)

[04:38] <matthias> unchecked my cd and the other thing
[04:38] <matthias> hold on ...
[04:38] <JoshuaRL> matthias: there should be a ton of updates.
[04:39] <anniku989> can someone tell me how to upgrade gnome to 2.2?
[04:39] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: okay please hold
[04:39] <root_____> wow, has anyone tried andlinux?
[04:39] <tdawgedogg> JoshuaRL: I have everything up to date but I still cant get out of low graphics mode in gutsy
[04:39] <Z_o-s-o_> anniku989 what version of ubuntu are you using
[04:39] <anderswc> is there a file you can edit to add programs to run when the computer turns on? and if so, what's it called? I'm talking about when the computer starts by the way, not when someone logs in.
[04:39] <anniku989> I'm not sure
[04:39] <Z_o-s-o_> so to system - about gnome
[04:39] <JoshuaRL> tdawgedogg: what graphics card do you have?
[04:39] <matthias> joshua funny to say but says that my system is up to date in  the update manager ...
[04:39] <MethodOne> anniku989: gnome 2.2 is a really old version.  You might actually mean 2.20
[04:40] <anniku989> yes
[04:40] <anniku989> sorry about that
[04:40] <Z_o-s-o_> go to system - about gnome and itll tell you what version you have now
[04:40] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: run this on the laptop ssh-keygen -t rsa1 -f /usr/local/etc/ssh_host_key -N ""
[04:40] <anniku989> hmm, I have 2.20.1....
[04:40] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: hold up don't run that wrong directlry for ubuntu
[04:40] <Z_o-s-o_> I thought you would...are you having an issue
[04:41] <sweetsinse> tdawgedogg what does it say when you type:   xrandr   : in terminal?
[04:41] <matthias> joshua  i have something called p7zip and other things ...
[04:41] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: run this on the laptop ssh-keygen -t rsa1 -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_key -N ""
[04:41] <JoshuaRL> matthias: did you make sure that you checkmarked EVERYTHING?  That includes the ones in third party and updates
[04:41] <sweetsinse> tdawgedogg does it say something at least
[04:41] <matthias> let me check again ...
[04:42] <tdawgedogg> sweetsinse: hang on
[04:42] <Z_o-s-o_> anniku989 : Were you having problems?
[04:42] <anniku989> How do I get just one pannel thing, with "applications, places, system, etc" on the same one as the bottom?
[04:42] <tdawgedogg> JoshuaRL: I have a 7600 GT
[04:42] <bobbob1016> I've been looking around on the forums, and they are saying it is more or less worth it to install 64bit on my new Intel Quad-Core, I just thought I'd ask here, are there any really big issues with 64bit over 32bit?  Is flash still a pain?  Are video codecs?  Are apps hard to install, if they aren't compatible?  Does wine run fine?
[04:42] <sdsheeks> bobbob1016: only thing i have seen so far is flash
[04:42] <Z_o-s-o_> anniku989: right click the panel and click ass
[04:42] <Z_o-s-o_> oops
[04:42] <Z_o-s-o_> add
[04:42] <sdsheeks> bobbob1016: everything else "I" need to run works just fine
[04:43] <redshadowhero> could someone tell me if there are any good video editing packs on ubuntu?
[04:43] <sn00zer> sdsheeks, ok ran command, restarted sshd, and trying to connect
[04:43] <Skullmonkey> does anyone know if you can install photoshop cs3?
[04:43] <reya276> does anyone know if there is a channel for hardy alpha, having some issues with my resolution and dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg.conf does not work
[04:43] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: okay
[04:43] <Z_o-s-o_> and then choose main menu
[04:43] <roberttheiii> #chat
[04:43] <anniku989> oh
[04:43] <JoshuaRL> okay tdawgedogg.  http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html
[04:43] <anniku989> Thanks
[04:43] <Z_o-s-o_> yep
[04:43] <sweetsinse> reya276 join ubuntu+1
[04:43] <anniku989> props 4 you!
[04:43] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: might want to move known_hosts to an old file on your desktop first
[04:43] <jaramillo> how can I see what's the actual VertRefresh and HorizSync being used? i.e: the default res is 1024x768 but i changed it in gnome. However gdm still is at 1024. I want to change it in the xorg.conf but I dont know the exact values.
[04:43] <anniku989> lol
[04:43] <matthias> joshua, the update manager does not give me the option to check the settigns where was it again ..
[04:43] <reya276> sweetsinse: thanks
[04:44] <sweetsinse> but
[04:44] <sweetsinse> i can tell you dpkg is not suppose to w3rk anymore
[04:44] <JoshuaRL> tdawgedogg: thats envy and it will install and configure xserver for your card.
[04:44]  * TurtleOfDoom wonders how many people looking to install CS3 on ubuntu own a legit copy
[04:44] <tkooda> can anyone tell me how I can safely ("casper"? "persistant"?) run gutsy server on a flash disk (actual flash disk, not usb thumb drive)?
[04:44] <sweetsinse> on xorgserver, its part of the bluprint
[04:44] <bobbob1016> sdsheeks, Codecs and things?  Is the 64bit kernel that different that apps would have a difficulty running?  I took a class where they went over processors, and they said the difference is the amount of registers that can be used in 64 and 32, but that shouldn't mess with apps, since they can just run with less registers, right?
[04:44] <Z_o-s-o_> matthias : system-administration - software sources
[04:44] <s_unix> jaramillo: can see /var/local/X.
[04:44] <sn00zer> sdsheeks, still denied

[04:44] <s_unix> jaramillo: can see /var/log/x's log
[04:44] <JoshuaRL> matthias: thats only after you're sure you enabled all the repositories in Software Sources
[04:44] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: very odd and it is a permission denied error right?
[04:45] <sn00zer> sdsheeks, yes
[04:45] <sdsheeks> bobbob1016: yea no issues other than flash...dvds fine etc..
[04:45] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: alright let me do some more  googling
[04:45] <soulburner> how would i go ab out running a ./start script without having to keep the terminal open?
[04:45] <sn00zer> sdsheeks, ok
[04:45] <jaramillo> Ok, thx.
[04:45] <goblin> hello people how to rename the NAME of my USERNAME "goblin" i wants to rename it to "worker" how to do that?

[04:46] <bobbob1016> sdsheeks, Flash doesn't work well when running the 32bit firefox, isn't that what is suggested?
[04:46] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: on the laptop run tail -f /var/log/auth.log and then try to connect see if anything pops up there
[04:46] <JoshuaRL> tdawgedogg: you'll need to install the nvidia driver, and let it overwrite your xorg.conf
[04:47] <tdawgedogg> joshuaRL: I clicked install nvidia driver again I'll let you know what happens
[04:47] <matthias> joshua, thanks<PHONE_NUMBER>00000000 times
[04:47] <JoshuaRL> no prob matthias
[04:47] <tdawgedogg> Its down
[04:47] <sdsheeks> bobbob1016: the issue I have is there is no 64 bit version of the flash plugin
[04:47] <JoshuaRL> and welcome to ubuntu
[04:47] <Z_o-s-o_> goblin go to system -administration-users and groups
[04:47] <sdsheeks> bobbob1016: on a 32 bit install with firefox it runs just fine

[04:48] <soulburner> :)
[04:48] <JoshuaRL> yes you do tdawgedogg.  that is the config file that "runs" xserver.
[04:48] <bobbob1016> sdsheeks, Have you tried 32bit firefox on 64bit ubuntu?  I read that worked, not sure how well though.
[04:49] <JoshuaRL> matthias: we all start somewhere.  Once you get used to it linux is actually easier.  much less security issues anyway.
[04:49] <sdsheeks> bobbob1016: no i have not
[04:49] <tdawgedogg> JoshuaRL....Thanks its telling me to restart my computer now
[04:49] <tdawgedogg> thanks

[04:52] <sdsheeks> ^^
[04:52] <sn00zer> sdsheeks, hmmm /etc/init.d/sshd start command not found
[04:52] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: typo on my part
[04:52] <sn00zer> sdsheeks, oh ok
[04:52] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: it is sudo /etc/init.d/ssh start
[04:52] <sweetsinse> !hello hehe
[04:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hello hehe - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:53] <Sparqzooorz> Ok so I have this problem. My WM is messed up cause I tryed uninstalling compiz/xgl and now I cant move my windows or nothing anymore is there any way to reinstall the default WM???
[04:53] <Sparqzooorz> WM=windows manager btw
[04:53] <sn00zer> sdsheeks, ok server started

[04:53] <Sparqzooorz> yes
[04:53] <Sparqzooorz> wait
[04:54] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: i noticed sshd will start as a non root but won't load the key files
[04:54] <Sparqzooorz> idk one sec
[04:54] <sweetsinse> run metacity --replace from there
[04:54] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: i'm hoping that was the problem with you issue...we'll see
[04:54] <MajorP> ive a question, why should i use ubuntu server insteed of debian? is there any security significate special fetures?
[04:54] <sn00zer> sdsheeks, i don't think i had any errors
[04:54] <JoshuaRL> snoozer: try going into the recovery mode and trying "startx"  are they any errors?
[04:54] <MajorP> i only know sudo and that is not the best solution, i think so
[04:54] <Sparqzooorz> metacity --replace fixes the problem
[04:54] <anniku989> why won't gtk2.x themes install but gtk1.x themes will? Gnome is version 2.20.1 btw
[04:54] <Sparqzooorz> but only temporary
[04:54] <Sparqzooorz> its not permanat
[04:54] <Kalamansi> hello after copy&paste the debs in var/cache/apt/archives and reboot the box, when i go to synaptic to install the package skype i dont see it there in the var/cache/apt/archives ...
[04:54] <fuffalo> what's the hotkey in gnome to move to the left or right desktop (but not taking the current aplication with you like ctrl/shift/alt arrow does)
[04:54] <sn00zer> sdsheeks, still denied
[04:55] <sweetsinse> Sparqzooorz so when you reboot you have no borders
[04:55] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: wow
[04:55] <Sparqzooorz> Yes it goes back
[04:55] <Sparqzooorz> to no borders
[04:55] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: on the laptop do a ls -l /etc/ssh who owns those files?
[04:55] <Sparqzooorz> thats the only problem though
[04:55] <Z_o-s-o_> fuffalo : Ctrl-alt-arrow key?
[04:55] <sn00zer> sdsheeks, root
[04:55] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: hrm interesting
[04:56] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: i'm out of ideas :(
[04:56] <jimlay> I have the nvidia drivers installed and working (upgrading to hardy alph4 fixed them - glxinfo: everything checks out; google earth works great) but my X is sucking hard core. gnome keeps freezing. everything feels a little bit laggy. and I do not understand this compiz business. does convincing compiz to work w/o crashing take lots of fixings? Or should it just work out of the box?
[04:56] <fuffalo> Z_o-s-o,  ty
[04:56] <anniku989> why won't gtk2.x themes install but gtk1.x themes will? Running gnome version 2.20.1 btw?
[04:56] <Z_o-s-o_> fuffalo : np
[04:56] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: it has to be something simple....
[04:56] <Sparqzooorz> What if I just made a start up script to run metacity --replace? would that be suffecient? or should I just fix the problem all together?
[04:57] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: i suppose you could remove the sshd and move the /etc/ssh to a an old and then reinstall....
[04:57] <sn00zer> sdsheeks, i double checked auth.log and still have the error bind to port 22 on <IP_ADDRESS> address already in use
[04:57] <Kalamansi> sdsheeks how to view all debs? other debs that i downloaded is in the var/cache/apt/archives but i dont see them in the desktop synatic gui

[04:58] <tdawgedogg> im getting a to many packets in buffer error when i try to play a 1080p mkv movie
[04:58] <anniku989> why won't gtk2.x themes install but gtk1.x themes will? Running gnome version 2.20.1 btw?
[04:58] <Sparqzooorz> is /usr/bin/gnome-wm an application? because I'm not finding a folder.
[04:58] <sn00zer> sdsheeks, i only have one user besides system defaults
[04:59] <sdsheeks> sn00zer: might wan tto add one just to try it
[04:59] <tkooda> soulburner, it backgrounds it.  type `fg` from the same console to bring it back to the front
[04:59] <sdsheeks> Kalamansi: settings-> repositories -> tthird party?
[04:59] <soulburner> ahhhhhh ok
[04:59] <soulburner> tkooda,  what if i've already closed that terminal
[05:00] <soulburner> how would i locate it then
[05:00] <sdsheeks> It's great hanging out here..learn so much..old gentoo user here
[05:00] <Z_o-s-o_> anniku989 : have you tried the forums yet?

[05:01] <sweetsinse> Sparqzooorz your problem is in that script
[05:01] <Darkmystere> Also when i try and install gcwid it says it clashes with Network Manager
[05:02] <sdsheeks> Kalamansi: if you downloaded a .dep you can installed it by sudo dpkg -i packagename.deb
[05:02] <sweetsinse> Sparqzooorz you could manually set the wm by setting the DEFWM value to metacity
[05:02] <ahorriblemess> I'm having some networking issues, I've read the forums. I can connect to my other computer... but how do I browse the shared folders on that computer? I can't see them in "Network">"smb", is there something else?

[05:14] <bluefox83> tkooda, i'm sorry i really don't know where they are, but if you try googling them, you might have some luck
[05:14] <sdsheeks> Kalamansi: if you already have the .deb just go that that directory and type sudo dpkg -i filename.deb
[05:14] <sdsheeks> Kalamansi: or from the gui go to that folder and right click...then choose install
[05:15] <sdsheeks> crog: thanks

[05:17] <jenni> I am using ALSA and my mic works sometimes but sometimes it doesnt
[05:17] <danbhfive> jenni: have you checked volume control?
[05:17] <jenni> Yes
[05:18] <jenni> All input sources are set to mic and nothing is muted
[05:18] <Z_o-s-o_> jenni : what type of soundcard?
[05:18] <jenni> now all I hear is a sort of humming static noice
[05:18] <akafurious> hey jenni
[05:18] <akafurious> how are you
[05:18] <jenni> I don't really know, but I do know that it doesnt have hardware mixing capabilities
[05:18] <jenni> hi
[05:19] <Z_o-s-o_> hmmm
[05:19] <akafurious> do i know you from somewhere
[05:19] <akafurious> jenni
[05:19] <jenni> I just switched to linux like 4 days ago
[05:19] <Tama00> Tell me whyy, aint nothing but a heart ache
[05:19] <akafurious> linux = love
[05:19] <akafurious> heh
[05:19] <Tama00> tell me whyyy, aint nother but a mistake
[05:19] <jenni> and it's so hard to get things set up, but my friend told me that once everything is configured
[05:19] <jenni> its easy to use
[05:20] <jenni> so far, ive been stuck on the "configuring" part for 4 days
[05:20] <Tama00> tell me why... i never wanna hear you say..
[05:20] <Tama00> but i want ubuntuuuu
[05:20] <Tama00> its my new irc remix
[05:20] <jenni> I was messing around with it for so long
[05:20] <jenni> and I got the mic to work
[05:20] <blink148> other way round for me - instals fine until you need to install a source app :?
[05:20] <Tama00> please donate to my pay pal
[05:20] <dnl> How to make a network scanner workable?
[05:20] <jenni> and after a restart it doesnt work again
[05:20] <jenni> I am using sound recorder to check it
[05:20] <danbhfive> Tama00: please leave, you are offtopic
[05:21] <tkooda> hiddensoul, thanks.. I'll check that out.  -anyone else have ANY info on running linux on a flash drive?
[05:21] <danbhfive> jenni: how do you get it working?
[05:21] <jenni> i changed the encorder thingy in sound recorder from mp3 to wav
[05:21] <Tama00> tkooda, its pretty easy man, just dump linux on the flash drive then install grub onto it and boot up on the flash drive if u pc suports it
[05:21] <jenni> *encoder
[05:22] <Z_o-s-o_> i dont see why that would fix it
[05:22] <jenni> neither do I
[05:22] <Tama00> tkooda, you could just boot the live cd and install ubuntu to the flash drive and it would work
[05:22] <jenni> maybe because it was working but the encoder is messed up, so it played on wav
[05:22] <blink148> whats the othr big server
[05:22] <blink148> is it usenat/
[05:22] <blink148> ?
[05:22] <jenni> but now when i try it its not working
[05:22] <kidem> Anyone get the 8800GTS 512 g92 in gutsy?
[05:22] <kidem> to work
[05:23] <Z_o-s-o_> jenni : open the sound mixer
[05:23] <jenni> from the terminal or the one with the gui
[05:23] <Z_o-s-o_> gui
[05:23] <jenni> ok
[05:23] <Z_o-s-o_> then edit -prefs
[05:23] <jenni> k
[05:23] <Z_o-s-o_> are all the ones with Mic in the name checked?
[05:24] <jenni> i didnt check the front mic ones
[05:24] <Z_o-s-o_> try that
[05:24] <jenni> because my mic is plugged in (correctly) in the back
[05:24] <tkooda> Tama00, I don't want the OS writing to the flash drive constantly (to avoid dramatically shortening it's lifespan)
[05:24] <Z_o-s-o_> the check the levels in the mixer part
[05:24] <Z_o-s-o_> jenni L Oh
[05:24] <Z_o-s-o_> oops
[05:24] <bazhang> tkooda: use ext2 and disable swap then
[05:24] <Z_o-s-o_> what do you have listed in the switches tab?
[05:24] <Tama00> tkooda, just sym link temp, var home and swap to a fixed drive then
[05:25] <jenni> you mean Analog mix?
[05:25] <Z_o-s-o_> no
[05:25] <Z_o-s-o_> go bacl to the gui mixer
[05:25] <jenni> k
[05:25] <Z_o-s-o_> theres a tab labeled switches next to mixer
[05:25] <Z_o-s-o_> playback*
[05:25] <tkooda> bazhang/Tama00, I suppose that'd work.. -isn't there some "standard" method of obtaining "persistance" with flash drives though?  ("casper"?? "live-helper"??)
[05:25] <jenni> the only tabs i have is Playback, Recording, Options
[05:26] <Z_o-s-o_> hmm
[05:26] <bazhang> tkooda: www.pendrivelinux.com has it all ;]
[05:26] <AnswerGuy> I have someting that is driving me completely crazy (which, admittedly is usually only a short stroll) ...
[05:26] <Tama00> tkooda, you could do it in a similar way to a live cd and symlink it all into memory
[05:26] <Z_o-s-o_> usually theres a tab labeled playback and then nexto it theres one labeled switches
[05:26] <AnswerGuy> I want to remaster a Hardy Heron (alpha4) LiveCD using a custom wallpaper
[05:27] <jenni> I think that depends on the sound card driver thingy
[05:27] <bazhang> !hardy | AnswerGuy
[05:27] <ubotu> AnswerGuy: Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - CONSIDER IT TO BE PRE BETA (ALPHA) SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu
[05:27] <jenni> because my friend said that Alsa changes its thing according to different drivers
[05:27] <Z_o-s-o_> jenni : without seeing it i cant really say for sure
[05:27] <gold44> how to check if apache is installed?
[05:27] <tkooda> bazhang, p-d-l.org has info on how to mount a (usb) flash drive and copy a livecd+installer.. but I want just a "gutsy server"
[05:27] <Z_o-s-o_> i use alsa on all 3 of my ubuntu machines
[05:27] <[chr0n0s]> gold44, use whereis apache2 or whereis apache
[05:28] <AnswerGuy> But it seems to totally ignore whatever I put in /usr/share/gnome-background-properties/ubuntu-wallpapers.xml
[05:28] <bazhang> AnswerGuy: this is wrong channel for Hardy
[05:28] <tkooda> Tama00/bazhang, would it work if I just booted off non-flash-drive, then `debootstrap`'d (and installed "server" packages?) it?
[05:28] <Z_o-s-o_> jenni : you might try posting in the forums
[05:28] <gold44> [chr0n0s]: ok i guess not. i think it's in /etc/apache
[05:29] <jenni> if I turn on the Aux
[05:29] <jenni> I can hear myself
[05:29] <jenni> er sorry I mean the Analog mix
[05:29] <kidem> Sucks to have ubuntu installed and cant use it or cant stand to use it cause the drivers for my gpu dont work well at all :(
[05:29] <AnswerGuy> Okay, where do I go for Hardy?
[05:29] <tkooda> Tama00/bazhang, and then tried to symlink /tmp, /var/tmp, /var/spool, etc.. ?  -but then I still gotta kill klogd and sysklogd, etc..
[05:29] <Tama00> tkooda, remembing the masterboot record yes
[05:29] <tkooda> Tama00/bazhang, thought there'd be a better way
[05:29] <jenni> O!!!!!
[05:29] <jenni> Ok so the mic works if I set it to mix
[05:29] <AnswerGuy> ?ard
[05:30] <jenni> but i hear my mic all the time
[05:30] <Z_o-s-o_> jenni : good deal
[05:30] <AnswerGuy> Ahh, found it.
[05:30] <Z_o-s-o_> hopefully itll stay working
[05:30] <Z_o-s-o_> mute it when not in use
[05:30] <jenni> I guess I can do that :S
[05:30] <Z_o-s-o_> i do that with mine as well
[05:31] <tkooda> Tama00/bazhang, /.
[05:31] <tkooda> (typo)
[05:31] <[chr0n0s]> gold44, can you paste the output ?
[05:31] <bazhang> tkooda: not really sure how you would do that apart from what pendrivelinux has to say...
[05:31] <TrustNoOne> where to obtain hardy?
[05:31] <[chr0n0s]> TrustNoOne, ubuntu.com
[05:31] <Tama00> tkooda, there are guides on the net for this sort of stuff. not to sure about for ubuntu though, theres a good one for gentoo on the gentoo wiki if i remember correctly
[05:31] <TrustNoOne> ya couldnt find on there
[05:31] <Z_o-s-o_> google it
[05:32] <Z_o-s-o_> youll find it

[05:32] <tkooda> Tama00, I've ben unable to find a decent FAQ/HOWTO..  I'll try the gentoo wiki..  thanks

[05:32] <Z_o-s-o_> bye
[05:32] <Kalamansi> dig yahoo.com no reponse
[05:33] <[chr0n0s]> TrustNoOne, if you cannot find hardy, then you should rethink about installing it
[05:33] <bazhang> TrustNoOne: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/hardy/alpha-4/

[05:36] <vrkhans> any solution

[05:36] <TrustNoOne> I need help installing my d-link dwa 652 wireless PCMCIA adapter card, ndiswrapper doesnt support it apparently, its a wireless N card, dlink doesnt have a linux driver for this series of card
[05:36] <sajes> How do I change ghetty resolutions?
[05:37] <danbhfive> vrkhans: are you using ndiswrapper?
[05:38] <bazhang> nomaSS: you might try the alternate cd--that handles stuff when the livecd chokes
[05:39] <Newbuntu2> Anyone know why when I connect to VNC (from XP) it works for 1-2mins and then completely freezes my linux box?? I just installed 7.10 on it..
[05:39] <Kalamansi> danbhfive : done cat /etc/resolv.conf still no internet
[05:39] <Z_o-s-o_> Newbuntu2 : thats odd...have you installed all the updates?
[05:40] <danbhfive> Kalamansi: what did it say?
[05:40] <eTranquility> Can someone direct me to a font installation guide for Feisty?

[05:40] <Kalamansi> danbhfive: $cat /etc/resolv.conf
[05:40] <Kalamansi> danbhfive: the reply is only $
[05:40] <Newbuntu2> zoso: how do I check that?
[05:41] <Kalamansi> danbhfive: the reply is only $ "blank"
[05:41] <danbhfive> Kalamansi: are you using dhcp?
[05:41] <eTranquility> Thank you, I don't know why I couldn't find that.
[05:41] <Kalamansi> danbhfive : yes dhcp which im using right now
[05:41] <danbhfive> Kalamansi: (that file is where your dns servers are listed I believe, it being blank may be the problem)
[05:42] <danbhfive> Kalamansi: Im guessing a bit here: try dhclient eth0
[05:42] <danbhfive> Kalamansi: or whatever your internet connection is

[05:44] <Kalamansi> amenado : nothing. after we config it yesterday and i after installing now a skype, when i reboot i dont have internet now...
[05:44] <amenado> ahorriblemess-> first thing, make sure you can ping both ways
[05:44] <_Oz_> ahorriblemess: yes, http://www.europe.eclipse.co.uk/Ubuntu/Ubuntu-on-win-network.htm
[05:45] <ahorriblemess> amenado: I've pinged one way, from Ubuntu to Windows
[05:45] <Kalamansi> danbhfive : still no internet connection
[05:45] <amenado> Kalamansi-> do you have an ip address assigned on both pc's?
[05:45] <Kalamansi> amenado : all dhcp..
[05:45] <amenado> ahorriblemess-> you tried to ping one way, but what is the result? how about the other way?
[05:45] <libcartel> do you guys recommend using a software firewall?
[05:45] <Flughafen> does anyone know why ubuntu isnt recognizing my clix2?
[05:45] <amenado> Kalamansi-> do you have an ip address assigned on both pc's?
[05:45] <mikebot> Does anyone know why ubuntu will suddenly not let me open folders?
[05:45] <Kalamansi> amenado : nope
[05:45] <Kalamansi> amenado - i use dhcp
[05:45] <Tama00> libcartel, only bother using a firewall if your a server and connected directly to the net
[05:46] <amenado> libcartel all firewalls i knew of are software based
[05:46] <mikebot> It says "Cannot display contents of this folder," or something like that...
[05:46] <libcartel> i thought routers had firewalls built in
[05:46] <Kalamansi> amenado - no need to install dhcp server in ubuntu desktop 7.10 right?
[05:46] <amenado> Kalamansi-> it does not matter dhcp or static, you must have an ip address on each machine
[05:46] <danbhfive> amenado: a router with NAT is kinda like a hardware based firewall
[05:46] <amenado> Kalamansi no need to install a server if you are not serving
[05:47] <Canzer69> can anyone point me to the right direction of tryin to make my sli work?
[05:47] <amenado> danbhfive-> what make its a NAT or makes it a router?  a software...end of story
[05:47] <mikebot> Or does anyone know where I can find out why this is the case?
[05:47] <Kalamansi> amenado yes. but still i dont have internet. i tried to assign ip still not working
[05:47] <bazhang> mikebot are your permissions messed up? have you been running as root?
[05:48] <amenado> Kalamansi-> thats just the initial steps, getting an ip address, next is the route table okay? do you  have a route to destination?
[05:48] <mikebot> bazhang: I am logged in as myself, so not sure if I am root, and I have been changing the permissions on some other folders, but I haven't lately and this happens all of a sudden..
[05:48] <Kalamansi> amenado : im not good in typos script...
[05:48] <mikebot> bazhang: Actually, I think it started when I tried to open an image with gthumb..
[05:48] <Tama00> amenado, yeah but its a separate peice of hardware not a separate peice of software
[05:49] <bazhang> mikebot changing the permissions? that would likely be it then
[05:49] <Kalamansi> amenado i use sudo ifconfig eth0 down and up still no internet connection
[05:49] <Deep_Ocean> who can tell me why i insert my install cd,the computer tell me i should input the user and the password?
[05:49] <mikebot> bazhang: But I can't open /any/ folder, and I was only changing the permission on one folder.
[05:49] <Kalamansi> amenado ifoncifg eth0 down / ifconfig eth0 up
[05:49] <mikebot> bazhang: And once I chagne the permissions on that folder back to 777 I still can't open it..
[05:49] <amenado> Tama00-> your argument is what? what controls the hardware? software..end of story for you too.
[05:50] <amenado> Kalamansi-> do you have a working dhcp server?
[05:50] <bazhang> mikebot why change permissions at all? this sounds very serious indeed
[05:50] <Tama00> glad your not doing my home network amenado
[05:50] <Kalamansi> amenado : i dont know. i dont even install a dhcp server.
[05:51] <Tama00> lets just call a cpu software as well because its controlled by software
[05:51] <mikebot> bazhang: Well it was just one folder on my desktop with personal contents.
[05:51] <komputes> what do I need to "tail -f" to see the usb devices I plug in
[05:51] <amenado> Kalamansi-> lets step back, draw the layout of your network now, as it exist, tell the whole story again..paste in pastebin please
[05:51] <bazhang> mikebot backed up?
[05:52] <amenado> Tama00 you have toyed with microcode ever?
[05:52] <mikebot> bazhang: No, but this has happened before, and when I restarted it was OK.
[05:52] <pm> Can anyone help me - I have an IBM T23 running Ubuntu 7.1, and I'm trying to run some graphics intensive programs like Celestia - thinks are very slow.  I think I need to enable Direct Rendering, but I'm not sure how that's done.  I'm not a Linux expert.  Thanks for any help.
[05:52] <Tama00> amenado, yes i program atmel microcontrollers
[05:52] <workman> hello people i just have installed my unbut and, why when i type "sudo apt-get update" i have this error   http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/56924/plain/ please can somebody help me?
[05:52] <bazhang> mikebot then try rebooting to see if that helps
[05:53] <mikebot> bazhang: I was hoping there was a longer-term solution.
[05:53] <amenado> Tama00-> excellent, i have no argument with you
[05:53] <bazhang> mikebot there is--dont change permissions
[05:53] <Tama00> amenado, why dont we just call everything software then and call it even
