[06:32] <coreyo> teferi: any way to change one of the associations?
[06:32] <teferi_> coreyo: lemme dig up where you'd do that
[06:32] <enplo00> teferi_, gphoto2 and gthumb work okay. the device is shown in hal-device-manager, recognized as a ptp camera. no popup though
[06:32] <WildMagic> ErmaC`, well, there is no such thing as format...once you've mede the parittion in fdisk and if it is called, say, hda3, then you can say mkfs.ext3 /dev/hda3 to create an ext3 partition on it
[06:32] <teferi_> enplo00: hm.
[06:33] <coreyo> teferi: unfortunately, it prefers some very young/buggy native drivers over good ole ndiswrapper
[06:33] <alejandro> arf, nice segfaults using video/audio applications with gstreamer 0.8.10
[06:33] <teferi_> coreyo: system->preferences->removable devices and media
[06:33] <teferi_> multimedia tab
[06:33] <teferi_> is "import digital photographs when connected" checked?
[06:33] <spanglesontoast> got any ideas of fixing my partition table
[06:34] <enplo00> teferi_, yes
[06:34] <teferi_> hm.
[06:34] <teferi_> well, i don't have a ptp camera to test with, so i don't think i'm going to be of much help from there on out
[06:34] <ErmaC`> WildMagic, wath do i have to do now?
[06:34] <teferi_> sorry, man
[06:35] <spanglesontoast> anyone know how to fix the partition table?
[06:35] <teferi_> spanglesontoast: what did you do to it?
[06:35] <enplo00> it's ok, thanks anyway :)
[06:35] <spanglesontoast> gparted killed it
[06:35] <jorgp2> it seems all netgear cards are support out of the box
[06:36] <eno__> could someone please help me with repartitioning my drive?
[06:36] <spanglesontoast> how can I fix it?
[06:37] <serengeti> can I include ubuntu backports in sources.list in such a way that I could install new packages from there, but during dist-upgrade it would be ignored?
[06:37] <apokryphos> serengeti: yes, you can comment it out when doing dist-upgrade
[06:37] <ErmaC`> how do i add my 40Gb hdd to my ubuntu? :s can someone explain me this i'm new to linux....
[06:37] <Davey> ErmaC`: its in your machine, right?
[06:37] <ErmaC`> yes
[06:38] <Davey> ErmaC`: and formatted as what?
[06:38] <ErmaC`> as ntfs
[06:38] <coreyo> teferi_: I only see options for removable media.  I'm trying to associate my wireless card with ndiswrapper as opposed to acx_pci
[06:38] <ErmaC`> because there is  woindows xp on it
[06:38] <ErmaC`> i need to format it first but dunno how
[06:38] <teferi_> coreyo: yes, i'm looking
[06:38] <serengeti> apokryphos thanks I just thought there was some parameter or something that would make this happen automatically :)
[06:38] <teferi_> coreyo: the stuff i said earlier was to enplo00
[06:39] <coreyo> teferi_: sorry, you put my name on front of it.  I'd assume this is all somewhere in the hal configuration?
[06:39] <HaroldJohnson> !Windows
[06:39] <toasta> where does gnome install to?
[06:39] <teferi_> coreyo: actually, it has nothing to do with hal
[06:40] <HaroldJohnson> !hal
[06:40] <coreyo> coreyo: is ubuntu still using kudzu or something?
[06:40] <teferi_> by the time hal hears about a device, the module should have already been loaded, shouldn't it?
[06:40] <teferi_> hmm
[06:40] <WildMagic> ErmaC`, if you do fdisk -l /dev/hda what numer does the ntfs partition have?
[06:40] <HaroldJohnson> Morning, everyone
[06:40] <toasta> anyone out there?
[06:40] <HaroldJohnson> Awesome news: I
[06:40] <eno__> could someone help me with repartitioning my primary paritition?  I can't get access because it is active and I can't unmount.  should I boot from the cd and use some command line thing?
[06:40] <HaroldJohnson> toasta, Yes, I am
[06:41] <coreyo> WildMagic: 7
[06:41] <billytwowilly> well, thanks to a wonky usb hub I have corrupted the file system on my flash drive (mpio fy400)
[06:41] <HaroldJohnson> Awesome news, everyone: I've got my wireless card working.
[06:41] <toasta> lol, do you know where gnome istalls to
[06:41] <billytwowilly> how do I format it with fat32 in linux?
[06:41] <ErmaC`> WildMagic, /dev/hda1               1        4865    39078081   83  Linux
[06:41] <eno__> I tried booting in knoppix but that wouldn't do it either
[06:41] <WildMagic> coreyo, huh?
[06:41] <ziil> can anyone help me with nvidia drivers (every time i run a fulscreen app my screens frequency is changed from 85hz to 87hz) how to make it stop that
[06:42] <HaroldJohnson> toasta: Sorry, I don't know
[06:42] <WildMagic> ErmaC`, that is your linux partition..what is your ntfs partition?
[06:42] <WildMagic> ErmaC`, I think you need to do some serious rtfm'ing
[06:42] <HaroldJohnson> toasta,
[06:42] <HaroldJohnson> toasta, Sorry, I don't know that.
[06:42] <ErmaC`> no no WildMagic  i fdisk't it already to a linux but it isn't mounted yet
[06:42] <ErmaC`> that was the original ntfs
[06:42] <coreyo> WildMagic: sorry, wrong person :)
[06:43] <fd> hey all i have a litte problem with gnome
[06:43] <WildMagic> ErmaC`, Hmm...well, if you are really sure that the partition is /dev/hda1, then give mkfs.ext3 /dev/hda1
[06:43] <HaroldJohnson> Aargh, I need more coffee
[06:43] <WildMagic> ErmaC`, once that is done, you can use mount -t ext3 /dev/hda1 /wherever
[06:43] <new> hey all
[06:43] <serengeti> eno__ I've used http://www.sysresccd.org/ and it's quite good
[06:43] <serengeti> eno__ there's qtparted which feels just like Partition Magic
[06:43] <ziil> noone?
[06:44] <ErmaC`> wildcat
[06:44] <ErmaC`> mount -t ext3 /dev/hda1 /hd1
[06:44] <ErmaC`>          << i do this
[06:44] <ErmaC`> yes then it says /hd1 does not exist...
[06:44] <toasta> its cool thanks for responding to my question
[06:44] <WildMagic> ErmaC`, mkdir /hd1 :)
[06:44] <goldfish> ErmaC`: you need to make /hd1
[06:45] <serengeti> eno__ and it doesn't mount any partitions by default
[06:45] <Troy_McClure> what command do i have to put in my fstab to make programs executable by users on a windows partition
[06:45] <teferi_> coreyo: poke around in /etc/hotplug
[06:46] <eno__> serengeti:well mine is automatically mounted because my ubuntu is installed there... but what I need is to shrink it cause I want to install free bsd
[06:46] <eno__> so I can put unix on my resume
[06:46] <Determinist> hey guys , a problem: installed a dual boot system with hoary and winxp, grub as boot loader. now, every time i boot into winxp it corrupts grub and the system become unbootable. any idea how to boot both into hoary and XP without it fucking up my boot loader?
[06:46] <WildMagic> hey guys, I did apt-get update and then tried apt-get install automake1.4 and some other packages... it frequently gives up and mentions an MD5 mismatch... is the repository screwed up?
[06:46] <ricosuave17> the problem is evertime i load into gnome i get an error pop up saying that the panel is already loaded and it will exit but i click on it and it pop ups again and again
[06:46] <goldfish> WildMagic: if it us then , yes.
[06:46] <othernoob> WildMagic: don't use the us.archives...
[06:47] <Determinist> any idea please guys? i've searched the forums but didnt find anything relevant
[06:47] <ErmaC`> WildMagic, thanks m8
[06:47] <ErmaC`> ;)
[06:47] <WildMagic> goldfish, othernoob : oh yeah....these are us archives
[06:47] <billytwowilly> ubuntu automatically mounted my usb flash drive.  :P
[06:48] <othernoob> WildMagic: use some other then.. ca. uk. de. fi. or whatever ;)
[06:48] <teferi_> billytwowilly: it's somewhere under /media
[06:48] <DigitalFox|RO> it's most likely a mountpoint on /media
[06:48] <eno__> port the kernel; or somehting I don't know
[06:48] <serengeti> eno__ so just get this system rescue cd, boot from it, enter run_qtparted and here you go
[06:49] <billytwowilly> teferi_, I know where it is. I need to know what in /dev it mounted there.. I need to format the flash drive because a wonky usb hub caused a filesystem corruption.
[06:49] <teferi_> ah
[06:49] <teferi_> cat /proc/mounts or run mount with no options, yeah
[06:49] <billytwowilly> running mount with no options worked. thank you.
[06:49] <WildMagic> othernoob, thanks
[06:49] <othernoob> WildMagic: you're welcome
[06:50] <mpmc> how do I install the win32 codsecs for wmv/a?
[06:50] <mpmc> codecs*
[06:50] <serengeti> eno__ qtparted looks like this http://www.sysresccd.org/images/screenshots-small.png it can resize partitions
[06:50] <othernoob> use synaptic to get the w32codec package
[06:50] <Discipulus> apt-get install w32codec
[06:50] <philwil> mpmc: ubuntuguide.org
[06:50] <Discipulus> ugh
[06:50] <ricosuave17> ?? hello can anyone help me?
[06:50] <Discipulus> philwil, DO NOT SAY THAT EVER AGAIN!
[06:50] <Discipulus> philwil, that's kickban material right there
[06:51] <leroj> :o
[06:51] <othernoob> why does everyone hate the ubuntuguide
[06:51] <Discipulus> othernoob, it's on the wiki site
[06:51] <mpmc> Reading package lists... Done
[06:51] <mpmc> Building dependency tree...
[06:58] <philwil> done here
[06:58] <_MM_> oh well..
[06:59] <othernoob> Discipulus: you've had too many misspellings so far to make that even remotely true..
[06:59] <Discipulus> othernoob, name one...
[06:59] <othernoob> Discipulus: "grammer"
[06:59] <philwil> othernoob: not worth the time
[06:59] <husher> mostrodibiscotti, or possibly the php.ini file, it has to do with they file type apache is presenting it as
[06:59] <Discipulus> othernoob, grammer is one of the most commonly misspelled words in the english language
[06:59] <spamalope> grammar ftw
[06:59] <Gourami> lol
[06:59] <othernoob> Discipulus: so?
[06:59] <goldfish> #0-day-1337-grammar-warz , you too.
[06:59] <Discipulus> philwil, why you backing him up when he started it?
[07:00] <husher> ok, Discipulus, othernoob, take this off the channel
[07:00] <othernoob> Discipulus: aww, are we playing victim now?
[07:00] <spamalope> http://www.answers.com/grammar&r=67
[07:00] <mostrodibiscotti> ok, will check those
[07:00] <Gourami> lol @ spamalope
[07:00] <mostrodibiscotti> thanks, husher
[07:00] <husher> np
[07:00] <_MM_> anyone feeling helpful here?
[07:00] <Gourami> ok this is probably the most fun i've had on #Ubuntu, thanks guys
[07:00] <spamalope> < Discipulus> othernoob, grammer is one of the most commonly misspelled words
[07:00] <spamalope>               in the english language
[07:00] <spamalope> thats bash.org worthy
[07:00] <FlyingSquirrel32> okay, I've edited my menu file, how do I get flux to use it?
[07:00] <goldfish> _MM_: ask away.
[07:01] <husher> _MM_, ask the question
[07:01] <goldfish> FlyingSquirrel32: reload config?
[07:01] <luzbelito> hi to all. wich program can i use like hyperterminal in linux ????
[07:01] <zAo^> what happens when I remove capplets? (cuz of dependency)
[07:01] <_MM_> goldfish, I am trying to compile xsupplicant from source and I come up with this error:
[07:01] <husher> luzbelito: for serial port access?
[07:01] <othernoob> spamalope: you really think so? lol
[07:01] <_MM_> configure: error: library 'crypto' is required for Open1x
[07:01] <_MM_> which package provides -lcrypto?
[07:02] <luzbelito> husher: yes. console access
[07:02] <Discipulus> libgcrypt?
[07:02] <FlyingSquirrel32> goldfish, umm am i supposed to type that into the shell?
[07:02] <Determinist> i wonder if a standard edimax home router can be used as a switch without the router functionality ... :/
[07:02] <goldfish> FlyingSquirrel32: no, it's in the fluxbox menu.
[07:02] <zAo^> _MM_, sudo apt-get install crypto++-dev
[07:02] <zAo^> i think
[07:02] <frank> Determinist: plug everything in the front, it should work
[07:02] <_MM_> I have libgcrypt installed..
[07:02] <zAo^> dev-pkg?
[07:03] <philwil> luzbelito: minicom
[07:03] <_MM_> lemme try crypto++-dev
[07:03] <luzbelito> philwil: thanks
[07:03] <zAo^> when you compile, you need the source
[07:03] <FlyingSquirrel32> goldfish: No, somehow it seems I don't have the normal menu just xterm, restart and exit
[07:03] <zAo^> no1 on that capplets remove thing?
[07:03] <philwil> luzbelito: np, use it all the time to access router consoles
[07:03] <_MM_> hmm.. "E: Couldn't find package crypto++-dev"
[07:04] <goldfish> FlyingSquirrel32: your new menu has an error in it so, what file did u edit?
[07:04] <WildMagic> hey guys, my glade/gtk+ app compiles adn runs perfectly everywhere...when I compile on my shiny new hoary box, libglade refuses to acknowledge the presence of all my signal handlers...is this an Ubuntu issue?
[07:04] <zAo^> _MM_, srry libcrypto++-dev
[07:04] <mostrodibiscotti> if in a terminal
[07:04] <mostrodibiscotti> I wanted to find a file
[07:04] <mostrodibiscotti> what would the syntax be
[07:04] <mostrodibiscotti> find *.*
[07:04] <zAo^> WildMagic, not as far as I know
[07:04] <goldfish> mostrodibiscotti: find / -name BLAH
[07:04] <_MM_> haa.. fetching...
[07:04] <Determinist> frank, well see , i have this: one cable modem (no VPN, straight connection) , 2 PCs. I want the PCs to take IPs from my ISP's dhcp , not from the router's dhcp ... question is , if i disable the NAT would the router behave as a switch would?
[07:04] <husher> mostrodibiscotti, try 'locate file'
[07:04] <luzbelito> ok. another thing: i had a strange problem to upload files from mounted fat32 partition. i cant do it with mozilla. but if i do from ext3 partition, it uploads well. i had it configured with rw, umask=000. where is the problem please ?????
[07:04] <FlyingSquirrel32> well, I got that menu from the start, before I edited anything. I just now edited ~/.fluxbox/menu.
[07:04] <_MM_> nope..
[07:05] <_MM_> still complains of missing -lcrypto
[07:05] <_MM_> ;(
[07:05] <WildMagic> zAo^, any idea how to go about analysing it? the same code works perfectly on my other distros
[07:05] <FlyingSquirrel32> before I edited it, it was there but empty.
[07:05] <husher> luzbelito, i was gonna say komport, but it doesn't seem to be in the package list
[07:05] <zAo^> WildMagic, what msg do you get?
[07:05] <zAo^> tried google?
[07:05] <FlyingSquirrel32> I'm on ubuntu and used the packages made for ubuntu
[07:05] <WildMagic> zAo^, libglade-WARNING **: could not find signal handler 'on_button1_clicked'.
[07:05] <auk> hey, where are info pages located?
[07:05] <auk> your hd or a remote server?
[07:05] <goldfish> FlyingSquirrel32: hmm, weird. mine was never empty, hm, try restarting flux i suppose, usually there is a configure fluxbox section in the menu though..
[07:05] <_MM_> zAo^,  to me? I did.. no luck.
[07:06] <WildMagic> zAo^, yeah..google shows nothing...I am also asking in #gtk+ but they are strangely silent today
[07:06] <zAo^> WildMagic, this reports it:
[07:06] <zAo^> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=30485
[07:06] <frank> Determinist: I think if you don't use the WAN port of the router, all the other ports work as a switch. I don't know if an ISP will give two IPs to one modem at the same time but maybe
[07:07] <luzbelito> ok. another thing: i had a strange problem to upload files from mounted fat32 partition. i cant do it with mozilla. but if i do from ext3 partition, it uploads well. i had it configured with rw, umask=000. where is the problem please ?????
[07:07] <Determinist> frank, i've helped design the DHCP pools for that ISP , i work there so yeah , they'll give me 2 IPs :)
[07:08] <coreyo> teferi_: My apologies, I got sidetracked an the buffer is full.  Any luck finding anything out about device/module mappings?
[07:08] <frank> Determinist: man you probably know a hell of lot more than me about this stuff, then ;-)
[07:08] <WildMagic> zAo^, nah, I saw it...backporting does not help
[07:08] <Determinist> frank, just trying to save up the time since i cant be arsed to experiment right now lol
[07:09] <ploum> I knew it !
[07:09] <ploum> X is broken in breezy :-D
[07:09] <Discipulus> ploum, not broken, just don't work correctly
[07:09] <philwil> any idea why apt gives MD5Sum mismatch? (Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/m/minicom/minicom_2.1-8_i386.deb  MD5Sum mismatch)
[07:10] <Discipulus> ploum, they changed the location of the xorg executable and didn't update the gdm.conf
[07:10] <mumbles-ccna-out> right
[07:10] <othernoob> philwil: because you're using the us.archives
[07:10] <mumbles-ccna-out> college then out
[07:10] <teferi_> coreyo: yeah, poke around in /etc/hotplug, maybe
[07:10] <ploum> Discipulus: Here, I cannot start X alone, it doesn't find the module keyboard !
[07:10] <philwil> othernoob:I assume there is something wrong with it
[07:10] <othernoob> philwil: use some other archive. ca, uk, de, fi ...
[07:10] <Synergy> anyone problems with  the repositories
[07:10] <othernoob> philwil: indeed. the us.archives are screwed atm
[07:11] <Discipulus> ploum, then I don't know what the problem is, I haven't had any problems with it
[07:11] <teferi_> errr
[07:11] <teferi_> wait
[07:11] <teferi_> this is a pcmcia (or cardbus) card, right?
[07:11] <billytwowilly> ok, so I did a mkfs.vat -I -n MPIO\ FY400 /dev/sda on my usb flash drive/mp3 player and now it mounts read only. What did I do wrong?
[07:11] <ploum> Discipulus: my advice : don't restart X ;-)
[07:11] <philwil> othernoob: thanks
[07:11] <teferi_> coreyo: if this is a pcmcia/cardbus card, look in /etc/pcmcia
[07:11] <WildMagic> zAo^, oh, I solved it...I forgot to add -Wl,--export-dynamic to my CFLGS :)
[07:11] <_MM_> pardon the noon question, but if the universe shows a more recent version of a package why doesn't synaptic get it for upgrade?
[07:11] <ploum> _MM_: it's about priorities
[07:12] <ploum> also called : apt-pinning
[07:12] <othernoob> philwil: you're welcome
[07:12] <ploum> google for it, you will understand...perhaps (it's not easy)
[07:12] <_MM_> ploum, meaning? I am from Fedora world, so a bit dense on this..
[07:12] <frank> _MM_: a package cannot be in main and universe at the same time
[07:13] <Synergy> can someone pass his sources.list to me
[07:13] <Determinist> i wonder , can i enable the use of the extra buttons on a mouse under ubuntu?
[07:13] <_MM_> oh..
[07:13] <ErmaC`> yesterday i mounted an audio-cdrom driver or something so i can play Audio-cd's but now when i insert an data-cd it doesnt work :s i cant read the cd  only audiocd's can be read now :s
[07:13] <G|immer> hello all
[07:13] <ErmaC`> how can i fix it?
[07:13] <Garrison> would someone mind pointing me to any sort of OSS documentation that can tell me how to get it working again? I broke it getting ALSA working
[07:13] <Determinist> got a microsoft intelliwhatever mouse with 5 buttons and can only use the scrollwheele and 2 standard buttons
[07:14] <teferi_> Garrison: if you have alsa working, why do you want  oss?
[07:14] <Davey> Determinist: search the forums
[07:14] <goldfish> Determinist: howto on ubuntuforums.
[07:14] <Garrison> oss for analog input, I have a dual-box setup going
[07:14] <_MM_> oh well, looks like my wireless is not gonna work in univ for some time :(
[07:14] <Garrison> the windoze box puts sound out to my linux box's line-in
[07:14] <G|immer> is the ubuntu update from firefox 104 to 1.05 out yet? i cannote seem to fing it.
[07:14] <coreyo> teferi_: it's pcmcia, but not handled as such.  The acx_100 driver is nowhere in any of the pcmcia config files.
[07:14] <teferi_> foo.
[07:14] <teferi_> um.
[07:15] <jp> why when I add the blog applet I got: The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID:GNOME_BlogApplet". ? Thanks guys

[07:16] <ricosuave17> apokryphos, : dude im using the liquid weather thing but all i see are weird characters no letters
[07:16] <teferi_> Garrison: er, also does analog input too
[07:16] <teferi_> alsa, even
[07:16] <coreyo> teferi_: nothing in hotplug either.  There's got to be a giant database somewhere...
[07:16] <apokryphos> ricosuave17: what version of superkaramba and what version of liquid weather
[07:16] <apokryphos> ricosuave17: join #kubuntu
[07:17] <teferi_> coreyo: quite...
[07:17] <teferi_> hm.
[07:17] <Garrison> teferi_; I use my Fibre-Optic S/PDIF out, and analog line-in. I can't get my analog line-in to put out through my Digital S/PDIF
[07:17] <frank> ricosuave17: check which version of karaba your applet requires
[07:17] <jp> why when I add the blog applet I got: The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID:GNOME_BlogApplet". ? Thanks guys
[07:17] <teferi_> Garrison: you've exhausted my linux sound knowledge

[07:17] <LeeColleton> can I use my bluetooth headset with ubuntu somehow?
[07:18] <jorgp2> what is the status of cd shipments, I ordered cd's like 6+ weeks ago and still nothing
[07:19] <Garrison> jorgp2; took me ~7-8 weeks.
[07:19] <jorgp2> is there a way to check status?
[07:19] <Garrison> jorgp2; nope, it's coming standard mail. Mailman'll drop a package at your house.

[07:20] <husher> mostrodibiscotti, yes, it i
[07:20] <bluefoxicy> teferi_:  I rm -rf'd that.
[07:20] <mostrodibiscotti> some stuff I do not understand, what should I be looking for
[07:20] <teferi_> bluefoxicy: that did it for me
[07:20] <lpk> They have "old" fonts and a dull colouring :S
[07:20] <husher> s/i/is/
[07:20] <lpk> Anyone had similiar problems with 5.04?  Thanks guys
[07:21] <Determinist> any idea about my grub question? shall i repeat it?
[07:21] <husher> ashok, 'passwd' on a command line
[07:22] <bluefoxicy> that was stupid.
[07:22] <bluefoxicy> it dies if the dir it's removing is n't there.
[07:22] <husher> Determinist, repeat away
[07:22] <teferi_> heh
[07:22] <teferi_> yeah
[07:22] <teferi_> jp: that's not really enough information to go on
[07:22] <jorgp2> Garrison: http://shipit.ubuntulinux.org/user.cgi
[07:23] <husher> Determinist, did you ever get your other mouse buttons working?
[07:23] <Determinist> not yet , gonna try that once i figure out how to solve my grub issue
[07:23] <husher> Determinist, it's pretty easy, let me know when you're done w/ the grub issue
[07:24] <jorgp2> Garrison: it says mine was shipping 6/11
[07:24] <ashok> thanks husher
[07:24] <jorgp2> looks like 5 weeks ago
[07:24] <Determinist> now: this system has 2 HDs , old one = 60GB with winxp on it. new one = 40 gig with ubuntu on it. used the pressed CD i got from shipit to install hoary on the 40 gig drive and installed grub to hda (60gb) - mbr.
[07:25] <Determinist> the problem is it all works fine till i boot into winxp
[07:25] <jorgp2> heh, breezy will be out by the time I get hoary cd's
[07:25] <coreyo> teferi_: I guess before going to bed tonight, I could always "grep -r acx_pci /*'
[07:25] <Sonderblade> how can you specify in nautilus that a program should be run in a terminal?
[07:25] <Determinist> after i restart grub just dies , it reboots when it loads.
[07:25] <teferi_> coreyo: i started on that in /usr/share
[07:25] <teferi_> coreyo: it's in discover's device database, but i don't know if that's what hotplug uses
[07:25] <Determinist> any idea how this can be solved? i cant have winxp screw up grub every time i run it
[07:25] <ashok> how do i login as root ?
[07:25] <teferi_> ashok: you don't, you use sudo
[07:25] <fonsken> anyone knows how to disable indent for c-file in vim?
[07:25] <mostrodibiscotti> how would I post the whole thing all at once?
[07:25] <mostrodibiscotti> would I have to do in sections?
[07:26] <ashok> oki teferi_
[07:26] <husher> ashok, np
[07:28] <husher> Determinist,try making your Ubuntu disk the primary, and installing grub there
[07:28] <teferi_> Determinist: that's really weird...i dual-booted winxp and linux for over a year without having anything like that happen
[07:28] <coreyo> teferi_: where is discover's database located?
[07:28] <teferi_> coreyo: /usr/share/discover
[07:28] <uRolph> how to I search for files?
[07:29] <apokryphos> uRolph: on command line? find or locate
[07:29] <husher> uRolph, try 'locate file'
[07:29] <goldfish> uRolph: find / -name file
[07:29] <spamalope> find / -name nameoffile
[07:29] <spamalope> doh
[07:29] <teferi_> coreyo: ah, i had an idea
[07:29] <teferi_> coreyo: check out modules.pcimap in /lib/modules/<your kernel ver>
[07:29] <goldfish> spamalope: Blame the lag.
[07:30] <goldfish> :)
[07:30] <ubuntu> hello
[07:30] <goldfish> goodbye
[07:30] <spamalope> ubuntur: fancy seeing you here
[07:31] <coreyo> teferi_: how do I get the hex values for my actual card?
[07:31] <teferi_> coreyo: lspci will give you the pci id
[07:32] <teferi_> coreyo: alternatively, grep for the module name and change it to ndiswrapper :)
[07:32] <coreyo> teferi_: vi :/acx_pci ... but there are multiple lines
[07:33] <teferi_> coreyo: okay, plug in your card, run lspci -v, look for your card
[07:33] <teferi_> it'll give you pci id, vendor, subvendor, etc
[07:34] <stan-am> hello everyone, i was just wondering if someone could give me a hand, i just downloaded amsn messenger and after i untar the file i dont really know which file to install or how to
[07:34] <stan-am> i do have an amsn-installer.gz file but i dont know any commands 4 that
[07:34] <luzbelito> can anyone help me to use minicom for connect console????
[07:34] <coreyo> teferi_: -v doesn't show anything different.  I get some hex values, but they look nothing like the format that's in the file
[07:35] <Determinist> erm , how does one restart xorg?
[07:36] <teferi_> coreyo: you're rapidly exhausting the limits of my knowledge of pci...
[07:36] <luzbelito> can anyone help me to use minicom for connect console????
[07:36] <teferi_> coreyo: change 'em all and see what happens :P
[07:36] <teferi_> (back up the file first!)
[07:36] <azeem> Determinist: /etc/init.d/gdm restart, I'd say
[07:36] <coreyo> teferi_: haha...   In my case, I'm in the middle of finishing my dissertation.  I can't be here all the time.
[07:47] <tritium> stan-am, in the ubuntu package reposotories
[07:47] <Determinist> husher, mouse buttons work , thank you mate :)
[07:47] <tritium> !repositories
[07:47] <husher> Determinist, np
[07:47] <tritium> ah, forgot about ubotu being gone
[07:47] <xliu> everyone, which app do you use for MSN messaging?
[07:48] <leroj> E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing?
[07:48] <stan-am> awesome, can u give me the steps to install it from there tritium?
[07:48] <anacron> xliu: bitlbee (msn client for irc)
[07:48] <leroj> that's what happens when i try to install mplayer
[07:48] <husher> xliu: gaim
[07:48] <crossbar> hm.  i noticed that ubuntu was installing an old version of gaim by default
[07:49] <ed1t> anyone know how do i install java JDK?
[07:49] <crossbar> but once i installed gaim-encryption, it upgraded my gaim--though before it didnt seem to need upgrading
[07:49] <stan-am> awesome, can u give me the steps to install it from the repositories tritium?
[07:49] <husher> mostrodibiscotti, your php.ini file looks ok to me
[07:49] <tritium> stan-am, read this, and follow the instructions to add at least the universe repo: http://ubuntuguide.org/#repositories
[07:49] <mostrodibiscotti> ok
[07:49] <tritium> stan-am, then, "sudo apt-get install amsn"
[07:49] <mostrodibiscotti> thanks
[07:49] <stan-am> thnx a lot dawg
[07:49] <tritium> ed1t, yes
[07:49] <mostrodibiscotti> I will keep messing with it
[07:49] <xliu> I am using gaim, it is good, but it doesn't provide audio chat :(
[07:49] <mostrodibiscotti> thanks for your help though, very grateful
[07:50] <ed1t> tritium, its like fakeroot and something...i forgot
[07:50] <tritium> stan-am, download Sun's .bin installer.  Install the ubuntu package called "java-package".
[07:50] <xliu> disposable_mike, but I did not specify the type of mplayer as I remeber
[07:50] <ed1t> i did that
[07:50] <anacron> xliu: well there are better programs for audio chatting :D
[07:50] <tritium> Then, use the command make-jpkg (yes, with fakeroot) to build a .deb
[07:50] <xliu> anacron, which?
[07:50] <stan-am> it ll do tritium, thnx
[07:50] <tritium> stan-am, ok
[07:50] <tritium> ed1t, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Java
[07:51] <tritium> Method 1
[07:51] <anacron> xliu: skype(isn't there a linux version?, and ventrilo)
[07:51] <tritium> ed1t, there are docs in /usr/share/doc/java-package that you can read
[07:51] <anacron> ventrilo is for sure, it rocks
[07:51] <Garrison> Anyone good with Sound and Alsa?
[07:51] <xliu> anacron: yes, i agree, but sometimes i have to use MSN chatting,
[07:51] <leroj> there is a linux version of skype
[07:51] <pepsi> there is a linux version of skype.. i had installed it before
[07:51] <ErmaC`> can i apt-get install to another hdd? for example /hd1????
[07:51] <anacron> xliu: yeah, that's because the people who are you chatting with? :D
[07:52] <xliu> anacron: it's true,
[07:52] <xliu> anacron: so any apps with audio chatting for MSN messaging?
[07:52] <ErmaC`> can i apt-get install to another hdd? for example /hd1????
[07:52] <Garrison> xliu: Trillian?
[07:53] <anacron> xliu: i don't know but, there might be in gaim-vv, since there is also video chatting possibility
[07:53] <tanki> xliu, speakeasy, ventrillo, and teamspeak are the only chat clients i know that have linux clients
[07:53] <^rob^> hi

[07:54] <pepsi> tritium: im saying.. archive.ubuntu.com is failing to even load at all
[07:54] <tanki> i heard no one person knows the full process
[07:54] <^rob^> anacron: i want to - but dono which one - hoary?
[07:54] <pepsi> not us.*
[07:54] <Admin_> i have question to the developers
[07:54] <Will_> ansb!
[07:54] <CountDown> Anyone know which device is the parallel port?  /dev/port?
[07:54] <Will_> Jesus
[07:54] <Will_> amsn does webcam
[07:54] <stan-am> Sun's .bin installer should b available @ sun.com rite?
[07:54] <Seveas> stan-am, yes
[07:54] <tritium> CountDown, should be lp0
[07:54] <anacron> ^rob^: yes hoary is the best one for most people
[07:54] <Seveas> java.sun.com
[07:54] <djp> does anyone know if the .icons and .themes folders are created by default in the /home/user directorywhen a distro is installed that uses gnome? or are these folders created by theme managers etc?
[07:54] <teferi_> lp0 on fire!
[07:54] <ErmaC`> can i apt-get install to another hdd? for example /hd1????
[07:54] <G|immer> Tritium: AGAIN! Same thing was with 104 :(
[07:55] <stan-am> i got a 404 error on download link Seveas
[07:55] <stan-am> any other host for that file?
[07:55] <anacron> now can someone please help me with those tiny menus in xmms and other softwares?
[07:55] <tritium> G|immer, it has all fixes.  What's the problem?
[07:55] <tritium> anacron, you can double its size
[07:55] <Garrison> stan-am, google for filemirrors + .filename.
[07:55] <Admin_> if anyone is interested in opening UBUNTU locaL center in Latvia ?
[07:55] <^rob^> anacron: does see aiptek or not - i don't want to dl 600 Mb just to test and find out it does not support it - I have dl.ded suse - still not working
[07:55] <ed1t> why is that everytime when i add a repositories in sources.list, it doesnt work
[07:55] <stan-am> ill try garrison
[07:55] <CountDown> tritium: So, to fix an app looking for /dev/parport0 I should make a symbolic link from /dev/lp0?
[07:55] <anacron> tritium: yeah i know, but how do i do it :D
[07:56] <tritium> ed1t, do you "sudo apt-get update" after you add it?
[07:56] <ed1t> yea
[07:56] <Seveas> stan-am, https://jsecom16a.sun.com/ECom/EComActionServlet;jsessionid=E64DB3D4FE79C231C0697DF9998C3D7E

[07:56] <stan-am> thnx Seveas
[07:56] <Admin_> i would like to help to promote the Ubuntu Linux in EU
[07:56] <G|immer> tritium: there should be a way for someone to tell that his firefox is up to date. Making patches/updates without modifying the version is silly IMO.
[07:56] <Admin_> including Russia
[07:56] <^rob^> does anyone has aiptek tablet here?
[07:56] <anacron> ^rob^: well i can't say since i don't have experience with that thing, but my wacom seems to work

[07:57] <Admin_> can i talk with you in Private ?
[07:57] <Seveas> Admin_, come to #ubuntu-locoteams
[07:57] <XRayNuke> I added a custom command to open .jar files, but entered the wrong one. Now I have two custom commands associated with .jar files. How do I change them?
[07:57] <Garrison> ErmaC, why would you want to?
[07:57] <Seveas> Admin_, sure
[07:57] <hajiki> Seveas, so i could probably enable the alternate font rendering in freetybe libs?
[07:57] <highvoltage> chroot /mnt/hda1 ; apt-get install whatever
[07:57] <anacron> ^rob^: yeah
[07:57] <ricosuave17> dude?
[07:57] <Seveas> ErmaC`, no
[07:57] <ErmaC`> Garrison, because i have to
[07:57] <ErmaC`> :s
[07:57] <Seveas> hajiki, if you recompile them: yes
[07:57] <ErmaC`> my disk space has almost run out :s
[07:57] <hajiki> thank you
[07:57] <ErmaC`> ran
[07:57] <hajiki> is there a guide on that anywhere?
[07:57] <spike> hi there
[07:57] <crossbar> is there a way to upgrade ubuntu to a kernel with pax and grsecurity from the repositories?
[07:58] <ErmaC`> Seveas, really not?
[07:58] <Garrison> Ermac`; as highvoltage said: chroot /mnt/hda1  ;  apt-get install .whatever.
[07:58] <ErmaC`> :s
[07:58] <ed1t> wats the channel for Ubuntu Laptop development?
[07:58] <G|immer> well, can someone give me the link to the chat log archive of this channel?
[07:58] <Seveas> crossbar, unfortunately not.
[07:58] <hajiki> !deb src
[07:58] <Seveas> ed1t, #ubuntu-devel
[07:58] <luzbelito> philwil plhow can i identify wich serial port is connected?
[07:58] <crossbar> err.  i found a repository listed but it didnt work
[07:58] <Seveas> G|immer, it's in the topic of #ubuntu-meeting
[07:58] <luzbelito> how can i identify wich serial port is connected?
[07:58] <ed1t> i would like to help out with ubuntu projects
[07:58] <crossbar> hm that sucks.  i was having problems booting a kernel i compiled.  i used to not get those kind of issues
[07:58] <Will_> ed1t: Sounds fun. what do you plan to help with?
[07:58] <anacron> ^rob^: i plugged it in this computer, and it works right away, nothing to configure
[07:59] <ed1t> Will_, anything i can
[07:59] <^rob^> anacron: do you know how to swithc buttons in X - my pen seems to be set on middle button
[07:59] <^rob^> anacron: no X11 settings?
[07:59] <ed1t> with linux so i get more experience with linux and get to learn more
[07:59] <G|immer> Seveas: thank u.
[07:59] <crossbar> ed1t, best to help with what your good at--so not to be counter productive ;)
[07:59] <tritium> ed1t, #ubuntu-motu for getting involved in development
[07:59] <Will_> ed1t: Well, what are you good at in the computer world?
[08:00] <Garrison> Anyone ever spend 3 days working on sound?.... I have.. :'(
[08:00] <luzbelito> how can i identify wich serial port is connected?
[08:00] <CountDown> luzbelito: Connected to what?
[08:00] <anacron> ^rob^: i can't remebmer now, but i think it's the x settings where you can do that (dpgk-reconfigure xserver-xorg or something like that)
[08:00] <G|immer> do I need an antivirus for Ubuntu Linux?!
[08:00] <husher> why is there no #ubuntu-laptop channel?
[08:00] <^rob^> ok
[08:00] <Seveas> husher, why would there be?
[08:00] <^rob^> ubuntu uses xorg?
[08:01] <^rob^> which kde version?
[08:01] <Efwis> G| immer, no you don't have to have one. this isn't windows
[08:01] <luzbelito> countdown: riverstone rs1100 by console cable
[08:01] <Seveas> ^rob^, yes / KDE 3.4.1
[08:01] <husher> Seveas, i dunno, just seems like there should be, since Ubuntu seems to have a pretty serious laptop offering
[08:01] <toasta> anyone know where gnome gets installed?
[08:01] <ricosuave17> apokryphos, : dude should superkaramba work ok on gnome
[08:01] <^rob^> hmm - seems like i'll migrate from debian to ubuntu
[08:01] <Seveas> husher, it's just part of the entire community
[08:01] <Troy_McClure> !sound
[08:01] <apokryphos> ricosuave17: indeed
[08:01] <^rob^> is there any net-install?
[08:01] <^rob^> iso
[08:01] <stan-am> whats the equivalent command for netstat on linux???
[08:01] <ricosuave17> well it aint. lol
[08:01] <Troy_McClure> why is the script not working?
[08:01] <anacron> tritium: can you tell me where can i adjust that size for those menus?
[08:02] <Troy_McClure> i mean why is the bot not working
[08:02] <Troy_McClure> !ati
[08:02] <Troy_McClure> come back bot!
[08:02] <apokryphos> Troy_McClure: temporarily dead
[08:02] <to|m> hi, my sa7134 TVcard doesn't work but is loaded and registered in dmesg
[08:02] <tritium> anacron, I haven't used xmms in years.  Let me see if I have it installed...
[08:02] <G|immer> Efwis: Great. Forgive me, but I have Windows-the-virus-nest terrors. I had to ask. lol
[08:02] <apokryphos> Troy_McClure: maintainer not around at the moment
[08:02] <to|m> what could it be?
[08:02] <anacron> tritium: it's not just xmms
[08:02] <stan-am> anacron: did u try on the menu properties?
[08:02] <husher> Seveas, yea, but there are a lot of laptop specific questions out there that i think would be better served by a seperate channel, personally
[08:02] <tritium> anacron, which menu are you referring to?
[08:02] <Efwis> npt, I work in spyware removal forums, so I know where your coming from
[08:02] <stan-am> whats the equivalent command for netstat on linux???
[08:02] <Efwis> oops -t
[08:02] <Troy_McClure> well.. does anyone else know a guide for getting sound to work?
[08:02] <Seveas> stan-am, netstat :)
[08:02] <tritium> stan-am, netstat
[08:02] <husher> Seveas, but that's just me
[08:02] <anacron> tritium: all that kind of menus
[08:02] <stan-am> hahahahaha
[08:02] <beerockxs> the gnome image viewer thing, eog, is not working for me
[08:02] <stan-am> im such a dork
[08:03] <anacron> stan-am: no, where is that
[08:03] <^rob^> can i migrate from etch to ubuntu?
[08:03] <beerockxs> whenever i try to start it, it crashes
[08:03] <tritium> anacron, can you be more specific?
[08:03] <beerockxs> I have tried dkpg-reconfigure eog, and it didn't help
[08:03] <^rob^> using net packages
[08:03] <beerockxs> anyone have an idea?
[08:03] <^rob^> nevermind i'l dl the cd
[08:03] <G|immer> stan-am: i was goign to say ifconfig, lol
[08:03] <stan-am> anacron: r u under gnome?
[08:03] <Garrison> How can I map analog line-in through my digital spdif out?
[08:03] <Seveas> ^rob^, you'll have to pin hoary to 1001
[08:03] <tritium> ^rob^, probably, but it might be a pita
[08:03] <anacron> tritium: menus in most software, like dillo and xmms, i haven't tested others yet
[08:03] <anacron> stan-am: yeah
[08:03] <Seveas> because some packages need to be downgraded
[08:03] <stan-am> hahahah G|immer
[08:04] <stan-am> anacron: try a right click on menu and go to preferences
[08:04] <tanki> tritium, i'll take pita with ham, on rye, thanks
[08:04] <stan-am> anacron: u should see a tab called size
[08:04] <tanki> i think i got iptables to cooporate
[08:05] <wiljen> Hello..ubuntu newbie here...can someone help with a netwoking question?
[08:05] <G|immer> stan-am :)
[08:05] <crossbar> with booting the kernel, do i need to change the initrd image in the menu file to go with this new kernel?  i cant seem to find a different one
[08:05] <ed1t> brb
[08:05] <anacron> stan-am: in which program i should right click?
[08:05] <tritium> tanki, pain in the ...
[08:05] <Seveas> wiljen, just ask :)
[08:05] <tanki> wiljen, sure if all else fails use carrier pigeons
[08:05] <beerockxs> anyone?
[08:05] <tanki> tritium, yeah it put up a fight but i think i got there, now i can dcc send fine
[08:05] <luzbelito> how can i identify wich serial port is connected?
[08:05] <tanki> and i should be able to receive
[08:06] <tritium> tanki, ok, good.
[08:06] <stan-am> anacron: which menus r u trying to resize?
[08:06] <husher> luzbelito, besides looking at it?
[08:06] <Will_> luzbelito: I'm not sure that is 100% possible in the way you're looking for. It's an older technology, remember. Can you not just try connecting to it?
[08:07] <anacron> stan-am: the ones in dillo and xmms
[08:07] <husher> luzbelito, what's connected to the port?
[08:07] <coreyo> I have a glib function "const gchar* foo()", but when I call it to make an assignment, I keep getting the warning "assignment discards qualifiers from pointer target type"  how am I supposed to handle this?
[08:07] <coreyo> whoops... sorry guys.  Wrong channel
[08:07] <dajawho> Hi. Can anybody tell me the pakages to install for PHP/MYsql support in apache?
[08:07] <Gourami> anyone here familiar with VLC ?
[08:08] <auk> dajawho: apt-cache search php
[08:08] <luzbelito> to all: i must connect a river side rs1100 machine by console to load some configuration files
[08:08] <anacron> Gourami: just ask, somw one always will
[08:08] <Seveas> dajawho, libapache2-mod-php4 and php4-mysql
[08:08] <wiljen> Seveas. thanks for the reply...basically i am runnuning 2 ubuntu boxex...using samba i see each other and can access files one from the other..the only problem is that i cannot find the remote directory when i use "play directory" in xmms.
[08:08] <luzbelito> i had cable connected, minicom configured but it seems dont answer
[08:08] <Seveas> dajawho, you might want mysql-server too
[08:08] <beerockxs> anyone have an idea how to get the image viewer thingy to work?
[08:08] <dajawho> Seveas and auk Thank you
[08:08] <luzbelito> maybe is wrong serial port configurated ???
[08:08] <Gourami> I want to copy a dvd to my pc which works with video but I get no sound
[08:08] <stan-am> anacron: sorry mate, im new at these n thought u where talkin bout app menu
[08:08] <auk> beerockxs: what?
[08:08] <Seveas> wiljen, how do you access them, via places -> connect to server?
[08:09] <CountDown> How can I tell if a device (e.g. parallel port) is in use and which processes are using it?
[08:09] <mae> will apt ever have support for deltas when appropriate :) would make downloading nicer
[08:09] <Garrison> anybody know how to get gnome-alsamixer?
[08:09] <pepsi> so... archive.ubuntu.com resolves to both <IP_ADDRESS> and <IP_ADDRESS>, but synaptic always wants to use *.151 which fails to load, even in a web browser... *.138 works fine though
[08:09] <Garrison> where rather
[08:09] <Toba> Does anyone know how to change the screen resolution the login screen uses?
[08:09] <anacron> stan-am: that's okay, you can see that im not guru either :D
[08:09] <beerockxs> auk: the default image viewer, eog
[08:09] <beerockxs> or eye of gnome
[08:09] <Efwis> Garrison did you try apt-get install??
[08:09] <auk> what doesn't work
[08:09] <Seveas> Toba, in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:09] <auk> ?
[08:09] <Hoxzer> can I use samba in text form?
[08:09] <beerockxs> it just crashes when i try to start it, or view a jpeg, or whatever.
[08:09] <Toba> Seveas: thank you
[08:09] <Seveas> Toba: To find out how you can change your display resolution, go to http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[08:09] <Garrison> Efwis; yeah, first thing I trie.d
[08:09] <Seveas> Hoxzer, what do you mean?
[08:09] <wiljen> Seveas. yes...i have a smb network folder on my laptops desktop and can access the files from there..
[08:09] <stan-am> anacron: hehe, fuckin windows made me lose lotta years
[08:09] <luzbelito> has you all read????????
[08:10] <Seveas> wiljen, xmms cannot handle these unfortunately
[08:10] <auk> beerockxs: hmm--it worked fien for me by default install
[08:10] <Seveas> wiljen, you will need to mount the smb folder with smbmount or use totem for playing the files
[08:10] <anacron> stan-am: well if you wan't play games, you can't get rid of it, that's the truth for now
[08:10] <beerockxs> i tried dkpg-reconfiguring it, didn't work. removing and purging and reinstalling also didn't help
[08:10] <Hoxzer> Seveas: from console
[08:10] <Efwis> Garrison, that explains it, its not in the repos
[08:10] <moparfan90> hello. i am trying to mod my xbox so it has two hard drives... one with ubuntu linux and one for games. any one know how to do this without braking it????????
[08:11] <Seveas> Hoxzer, use smbmount or mount -t smbfs
[08:11] <Hoxzer> ok
[08:11] <Seveas> Hoxzer, package smbfs is needed
[08:11] <wiljen> Seveas. well that would work ok for me...how do i "submount"?
[08:11] <stan-am> anacron: thats true, but why windows when u have a ps2 n xbox @ home ;)
[08:11] <Seveas> wiljen, you need package smbfs
[08:11] <anacron> stan-am: well i don't
[08:11] <stan-am> anacron: how come u cannot play with linx?
[08:11] <Seveas> wiljen, and you can use http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/files/addsamba for an easy ride in mounting them
[08:12] <Seveas> Hoxzer, you too can use http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/files/addsamba for an easy ride in mounting them
[08:12] <Toba> ions
[08:12] <anacron> stan-am: well can you tell me for an example how can i play psychonauts?
[08:12] <bionic> Seveas, hey, i've created the kernel with make kpkg, but i cant find the .deb file, where should it be?
[08:12] <Toba> oops
[08:12] <wiljen> Seveas. ok...thanks will try it!
[08:12] <anacron> stan-am: or perhaps battlefield2
[08:12] <moparfan90> hello. i am trying to mod my xbox so it has two hard drives... one with ubuntu linux and one for games. any one know how to do this without braking it????????
[08:12] <Seveas> bionic, probably in the folder where you ran make-kpkg
[08:12] <moparfan90> help
[08:12] <stan-am> anacron: true...
[08:12] <moparfan90> me
[08:12] <Garrison> You know, this is absolutly shit.  I've never spent 3 days trying to fix something in windows. Especially something as trivial as SOUND
[08:13] <Toba> could someone give me that url again?
[08:13] <teferi_> huh, evolution in breezy works again, but where the heck did the exchange connector go?
[08:13] <tritium> Garrison, relax please.
[08:13] <teferi_> evolution-exchange is installed
[08:13] <bionic> Seveas, yeah thats what i thaught, but its simple not there :\
[08:13] <teferi_> anyone have any ideas?
[08:13] <anacron> stan-am: sure you can play something, but not all the games you might wan't to, that's why you need that windows and get even more pissed of when it crashes during the game :D
[08:13] <stan-am> Garrison: takes time to learn, dont b axious
[08:13] <Seveas> bionic, then I can't help you, I never used the thing myself...
[08:13] <zukalk> is it safe to " e2fsck -D " my /dev/hda, and will i notice any difference?
[08:13] <Will_> But is it the fault of the game, or the OS when it crashes?
[08:13] <Garrison> tritium: This is (simply put) impossible.  analog line-in -> alsa -> digital Fibre-Optic S/PDIF
[08:13] <bionic> Seveas, okay thanks
[08:13] <Will_> My GTA-SA has had 0 problems
[08:14] <teferi_> zukalk: it's not safe to fsck a raw drive rather than a partition...
[08:14] <drspin> what point during statup is dbus-daemon-1 launched??
[08:14] <stan-am> anacron: haahahahahahha, thats true, problem is that win ll suck up all ure resources
[08:14] <ompaul> Garrison, I have not seen your issues, so I have two questions for you 1) are there two sound cards on your machine, if so is one of them turned off 2) what kind of sound card have you got?
[08:14] <zukalk> teferi_, thanks
[08:14] <stan-am> anacron: and instead of p4 ht ull get a 486 XD
[08:14] <frank> Will_: does GTA-SA work in cedega?
[08:14] <teferi_> zukalk: if you run fsck, you want to fsck /dev/hda1 or /dev/hda2 or wherever your linux partition is...
[08:14] <drspin> stan-am: that's DX ;)
[08:14] <teferi_> zukalk: and never, ever fsck a mounted partition!
[08:14] <crossbar> does anyone know much about booting a grsec kernel?
[08:14] <Will_> frank: No clue. I use windows for gaming.
[08:15] <Garrison> ompaul: onboard nForce2 AC97 audio codec. I have alsa installed and working, digital out works, analog in/out works. But Analog in to digital out will not.
[08:15] <zukalk> teferi_, i'll keep that in mind ;)
[08:15] <frank> Will_: ok
[08:15] <Garrison> ompaul: 1 card, sorry
[08:15] <djp> does anyone know if the .icons and .themes folders are created by default in the /home/user directorywhen a distro is installed that uses gnome? or are these folders created by theme managers etc?
[08:15] <teferi_> djp: why?
[08:15] <anacron> Seveas: you are my official linux guru, now tell me how can i change those menus in xmms, dillo and all software like, so that the text is bigger, now it's so tiny i can barely read it
[08:16] <Efwis> Garrison, thats the same card I have, but my issues were different, I had to turn my system sounds off otherwise I would hard lockup
[08:16] <stan-am> what do I do with this "jdk-1_5_0_04-linux-i586-rpm.bin" file ( should b the bin installer from Sun)
[08:16] <XRayNuke> !java
[08:16] <Seveas> stan-am, do NOT use the rpm.bin
[08:16] <Seveas> stan-am, you need the normal .bin
[08:16] <stan-am> ow
[08:16] <tritium> stan-am, if you want to use java-package, don't use the rpm.bin
[08:16] <stan-am> blast!
[08:16] <XRayNuke> stan-am: that's the RPM, you need the other Sun Linux Java file
[08:16] <Garrison> Efwis, 1st day, I got digital out working, second, digital and analog (seperatly), 3rd day nothing, at noon, it'll be the 4th day
[08:16] <to|m> hi waht are the default setings in System->Properties->Multimedia->Video
[08:16] <djp> teferi_: just wondered whether certain folders created in my /home direcotry are safe to delete. or if i do delete them, will it be a disaster!
[08:17] <ompaul> Garrison, I am doing a little research on that atm, I do not know if I can help however let me see what resources I can pull out
[08:17] <stan-am> on it guys
[08:17] <Efwis> I know it has something to do with the onbaord sound card system. for some reason ubuntu doesn't like it too much
[08:17] <klaym> djp: why do you want to delete .icons. and .themes folders anyway?
[08:17] <frank> teferi_: most of the .folders in home are settings
[08:17] <Efwis> that reminds me I need to get a stack trace to bugzilla on that
[08:17] <wiljen> Seveas. I just checked and i already have smbfs installed
[08:17] <Garrison> ompaul; I picked at Crimsun's brain for 2 hours last night.. Rather, night before last, he couldn't help me either.
[08:18] <teferi_> frank: i know that
[08:18] <Garrison> ompaul; which is why I defend Window's 'ease of use' and 'compatibility'.
[08:18] <antix> what's a good system tray email notifier? is mail-notification good? I'm using gnome..
[08:18] <teferi_> frank: i've been using linux for eight years, please don't assume i know nothing
[08:18] <Garrison> Windows'
[08:18] <teferi_> djp: all that .themes and .icons contain are what you put there
[08:18] <teferi_> er, what you put in them
[08:19] <wiljen> Seveas. I am familiar with ediiting fstab...is sbmount a command or does it go in a line in fstab?
[08:19] <djp> teferi_: ok, thanks
[08:19] <drspin> could someone please help me -- when I logout I still have 4 or 5 running dbus-daemon-1 and gam_server -- why?? and how do I fix it??
[08:19] <Seveas> wiljen, can be both
[08:19] <frank> teferi_: I generally don't assume much knowledge from others, sorry about that.
[08:20] <teferi_> frank: well, you know what they say about what happens when you assume
[08:20] <ompaul> Garrison, well I would not agree with you on windows, however as an aside, please run the command - lsmod and put the output in http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/
[08:20] <Garrison> Another question for the guru's while ompaul is researching; Why would I get 'you passed an undefined mode number' for setting video mode?  (it's vga=0x164)
[08:20] <Seveas> wiljen, that script I gave you the url to will create fstab entries
[08:20] <djp> klaym: well they are empty and so do not appear to be serving a purpose. teferi_ has pointed out what they are, actually
[08:20] <frank> teferi_: I just noticed I didn't mean to tell that to you!
[08:20] <teferi_> djp: they're for per-user themes and icons
[08:20] <teferi_> frank: yeah, i was wondering...
[08:20] <teferi_> djp: if you're on a multiuser system and come across a nifty-keen theme you've gotta have, you don't need root privileges to install it - you just stick it in .themes
[08:21] <klaym> djp: ok. but empty folders don't take up space, and as they're hidden, you can't even see them so why bother deleting them? ;)
[08:21] <teferi_> and .icons is to /usr/share/icons as .themes as to /usr/share/themes
[08:21] <AlexBO> hello! I've a simple question: what is the program that show the system info in this link: http://ubuntuforums.org/gallery/showimage.php?i=490&c=4
[08:21] <djp> klaym: true...
[08:22] <drspin> AlexBO: gdesklets is probably your best bet
[08:22] <Will_> AlexBO: gdesklets
[08:22] <stan-am> gotta go guys, thnx 4 ure help
[08:22] <AlexBO> thank you so much!
[08:22] <stan-am> c ya
[08:22] <wiljen> Seveas. yes.. i understand that it will, but i am not sure what to when i edit...
[08:22] <Hoxzer> how that mount -t smbfs should work?
[08:22] <Seveas> wiljen, the manpages for mount and smbmount will give you that info
[08:22] <Hoxzer> can you give me explain or something
[08:22] <drspin> ???
[08:22] <Seveas> Hoxzer, read my last line to wiljen :)
[08:22] <Hoxzer> it says "wrong fs type"
[08:23] <drspin> AlexBO: If he's using KDE (which he may be) it's Karamba or SuperKaramba
[08:23] <Garrison> ompaul: http://www.xironet.org/pub/paste3.txt
[08:23] <apokryphos> Seveas: should backports be used or not? Seen many people saying that others are saying they shouldn't be used...
[08:23] <wiljen> Seveas. thanks...will reread them ;-)
[08:23] <AlexBO> drspin: no, i use gnome
[08:23] <AlexBO> drspin: i think it's better
[08:24] <Seveas> apokryphos, they can be used
[08:24] <ompaul> Garrison, did you do that yet?
[08:24] <Seveas> with caution
[08:24] <apokryphos> AlexBO: that's cynapses
[08:24] <ompaul> woops
[08:24] <drspin> AlexBO: yes but that screenshot it KDE -- so I was just telling you -- in your case gDesklets is your answer
[08:24] <apokryphos> Seveas: thanks
[08:24] <ompaul> Garrison,  :)
[08:25] <AlexBO> apokryphos: well, lot of people say that it's gDesklets
[08:25] <khermans> anyone know how to make video capture movies in Linux?
[08:25] <apokryphos> AlexBO: which one?
[08:25] <apokryphos> AlexBO: the thing on the very right with all the system info I know for a fact is cynapses, unless a rip-off of it was made...
[08:25] <AlexBO> apokryphos: drspin and Will_ say that that program is gDesklets
[08:26] <moparfan90> hello. i am trying to mod my xbox so it has two hard drives... one with ubuntu linux and one for games. any one know how to do this without braking it????????
[08:26] <moparfan90> help please
[08:26] <Phinite> gDesklets isn't playing nicely, the websites :)
[08:26] <AlexBO> apokryphos: okey. what is it a rip-off?
[08:26] <dejavu> hello...
[08:26] <shim> Phinite: Same here.
[08:26] <Seveas> Hoxzer, wiljen a sample fstab line is available on http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/572
[08:26] <zoofields> yeah, gdesklets website sucks
[08:26] <zoofields> it like never works
[08:26] <apokryphos> AlexBO: http://kdelook.org/content/preview.php?preview=1&id=11405&file1=11405-1.jpg&file2=&file3=&name=cynapses+karamba
[08:26] <dejavu> apokryphos: meet u again :D
[08:27] <apokryphos> :)
[08:27] <dejavu> pls me explain again
[08:27] <anacron> moquist: try google, and check out www.metku.net xbox modchip article
[08:27] <shim> hehe, maybe the gdesklets site needs IE? :p
[08:27] <AlexBO> http://inflame.hu/~djsmiley/pics/home_desktop.jpg
[08:27] <AlexBO> apokryphos: http://inflame.hu/~djsmiley/pics/home_desktop.jpg
[08:27] <drspin> Could someone help me with my session startup and shutdown PLEASE ?
[08:27] <AlexBO> apokryphos: they are very similar
[08:28] <AlexBO> apokryphos: no! they are the same!
[08:28] <anacron> moquist: sry, that moparfan just quited :D
[08:28] <dejavu> hello guys, im doing 'apt-get install linux-source' but still cant 'make' my webcam driver after all :(
[08:28] <Garrison> anyone know how to find what your last login was?
[08:28] <wiljen> Seveas. Thank you
[08:28] <dejavu> some one can help me pls
[08:28] <apokryphos> AlexBO: I'll stick with my theory that they ripped off Cynapses :P
[08:28] <Garrison> SOMEONE broke into my server, how do I see when the last login was?
[08:29] <AlexBO> apokryphos: look this http://images.google.it/imgres?imgurl=http://www.kde-look.org/content/pre1/11405-1.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.kde-look.org/content/preview.php%3Fpreview%3D1%26id%3D11405%26file1%3D11405-1.jpg%26file2%3D%26file3%3D%26name%3Dcynapses%2Bkaramba&h=1024&w=1280&sz=168&tbnid=U0xsn2Uo7AoJ:&tbnh=120&tbnw=150&hl=it&start=4&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dcynapses%26svnum%3D10%26hl%3Dit%26lr%3D%26sa%3DG
[08:29] <moquist> anacron: heh; np
[08:29] <GigaClon> how can i use sudo to empty the trash
[08:29] <apokryphos> AlexBO: tinyurl.com :)
[08:29] <Determinist> this is weird. my 1.4 centrino laptop with 512 ram runs ubuntu better than this p2.4 with one gig of ram... how can this be?
[08:29] <AlexBO> apokryphos: okey
[08:29] <aoisora> hello all, i got problem to install ubuntu, there's error msg said "rror install initrd-tools"
[08:29] <Seveas> GigaClon, sudo rm -r ~/.Trash
[08:29] <AlexBO> apokryphos: i will download Cynapses. is it for gnome?
[08:29] <huru> hi all, i have slight problem: i broke my sudoers file ;) any suggestions how to fix?
[08:29] <tanki> does anyone here have IE?
[08:29] <anacron> do i need divx codec, even if im trying to play the file with vlc?
[08:29] <Seveas> huru, boot into recovery mode and use visudo
[08:29] <apokryphos> AlexBO: are you sure those links above weren't cynapses? I find it very hard to believe...
[08:29] <dejavu> tanki: why uses IE :p
[08:30] <apokryphos> AlexBO: it's a superkaramba theme
[08:30] <AlexBO> apokryphos: yes, they were. I made a mistake :-P
[08:30] <Garrison> ------- Anyone?
[08:30] <huru> Seveas, recovery mode available in grub menu? i just installed ubuntu couple days ago so i'm not too familiar with it yet :)
[08:30] <huru> or do i need cd?
[08:30] <Seveas> in the menu
[08:30] <apokryphos> AlexBO: it's an old superkaramba classic.. IMO there's better ones now
[08:30] <CountDown> Hm... seems the lp module creates /dev/lp0 as the parallel port, but doesn't allow other processes to use it.  Is this true?
[08:31] <huru> okies, thanks
[08:31] <drspin> AlexBO: apokryphos: The screen shot is obviously KDE therefore it's a SuperKaramba Theme and yes -- the kde-look website confirms that it's cynapses :: http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=11405
[08:31] <BeefTube> Hi! I am trying to install ubuntu64bit onto a laptop..... it trys to put lilo and grub on hd0.... any way to tweak this? Thanks :)
[08:31] <BeefTube> I need bootloader on hda1 on MBR
[08:31] <ompaul> Garrison, after a lot of messing around - this looks the most interesting - not the kind of solution I like but there you go, you could of course file a bug report :)  http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/doc-php/template.php?company=Nvidia&card=.&chip=nForce&module=intel8x0
[08:31] <AlexBO> apokryphos: drspin: so isn't it for gnome?
[08:31] <glick> hi
[08:31] <BeefTube> hi :)
[08:32] <glick> hey does anyone know of any business that use webmin to administer their networks?
[08:32] <drspin> AlexBO: NO -- there are other ones similar to it for Gnome -- using gDesklets
[08:32] <apokryphos> AlexBO: you can use it in GNOME
[08:32] <glick> is that the best network admin tool out there?
[08:32] <Garrison> ompaul: would you have any idea how I would display the last-login (ssh) on my server? It said it, but I did a history and it went above the buffer limit
[08:32] <AlexBO> drspin: apokryphos: you don't agree with each other!
[08:33] <AlexBO> drspin: apokryphos: gDesklets or Cynapses?
[08:33] <apokryphos> AlexBO: we do
[08:33] <BeefTube> any other good 64bit distros out there? I have failed to install Kanotix64 and Ubuntu64 now...
[08:33] <apokryphos> AlexBO: superkaramba is a KDE application, but you can run it just fine under GNOME
[08:33] <tanki> dejavu, i dont have it, just want to see if it looks normal in it
[08:34] <AlexBO> apokryphos: maybe it's a better solution use the Gnome application
[08:34] <AlexBO> apokryphos: then gDesklet
[08:34] <apokryphos> AlexBO: whatever floats your boat
[08:34] <drspin> AlexBO -- we agree -- cynapses is a THEME for SUPERKARAMBA which is a KDE Application -- gDesklets is the GNOME equivalent of SUPERKARAMBE -- there are similar themes for gdesklets like cynapses
[08:34] <AlexBO> apokryphos: :-)
[08:35] <AlexBO> apokryphos: drspin: I've got Gnome. I'll download gDesklets
[08:35] <BeefTube> anyone know if there is a way to tell grub installer what HD partition ot install on from boot commandline?
[08:35] <rainingzigzags> i am lookin for a program in linux that will read both rar and zip files... any sugestions?
[08:35] <drspin> AlexBO: good choise
[08:35] <AlexBO> apokryphos: drspin: thank you!
[08:35] <drspin> *choice
[08:35] <rainingzigzags> and i did try google
[08:35] <Phinite> where from AlexBO... ?
 7Zip
[08:35] <AlexBO> apokryphos: drspin: can i ask you the last question?
[08:35] <AlexBO> Phinite: what?
[08:35] <rainingzigzags> beeftube, will that read both compressions?
[08:35] <BeefTube> yea
[08:35] <Phinite> where did you download gdesklets from?  or just from apt?
[08:36] <BeefTube> and a bunch of others too
[08:36] <rainingzigzags> is it by any chance in the repository?
[08:36] <BeefTube> dunno.. I use it in gentoo system
[08:36] <ompaul> Garrison, I would simply use the command last - not that I log into a ubuntu box using sshd  only debian ones :)
[08:36] <ricosuave17> hey how do i get flash??
[08:36] <rainingzigzags> phinite, get it from the apt.. thats where i got it from
[08:36] <glick> do you think ubuntu is ready for the datacenter?
[08:36] <AlexBO> apokryphos: drspin: how can i see the informations of a package that i wanna download with apt-get or dpkg?
[08:36] <Seveas> ricosuave17: Go to http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats to find out all about mp3/dvd/flash/java/realplayer etc... support
[08:36] <AlexBO> Phinite: can you rewrite?
[08:37] <Phinite> did you grab gDesklets with apt, or download it somewhere?
[08:37] <tanki> my feelings can best be expressed in a gif http://www.math.vt.edu/people/jbwillia/computer.gif
[08:37] <ompaul> Garrison, I plan as soon as the isp supports ubuntu to change to at least one ubuntu server
[08:37] <apokryphos> AlexBO: use synaptic
[08:37] <Raskall> I need help, god dammit. I just inserted a disk with ubuntu installed in a compaq evo n600c. It ran very nice. I then ran "apt-get upgrade" and got new linux image of 2.6.10-5-whatever. I then tried to reboot and suddenly get "Error 18: Selected cylinder exceeds maximum supported by BIOS" from grub.
[08:37] <glick> do you think ubuntu is ready for the datacenter?
[08:37] <Raskall> and I have no LBA setting in the bios.
[08:37] <AlexBO> apokryphos: i know. but there is a way to do the same thing in the console?
[08:37] <glick> can ubuntu be a reliable server?
[08:37] <Seveas> glick, it is for me :)
[08:37] <rainingzigzags> beeftube, where would i get it from.. i cant find it in synaptic
[08:37] <AlexBO> Phinite: i will decisively download with synaptic
[08:38] <Seveas> glick, and for all *.ubuntu.com servers
[08:38] <glick> Seveas, im talkin high load datacenter server
[08:38] <apokryphos> AlexBO: man apt-get
[08:38] <AlexBO> apokryphos: :-)
[08:38] <Seveas> glick, it's at least as good as any other distro
[08:38] <AlexBO> apokryphos:I've just read it
[08:38] <apokryphos> AlexBO: then you know the answer :)
[08:38] <AlexBO> apokryphos: there isn't any information's parameter
[08:39] <apokryphos> AlexBO: there are other ones
[08:39] <Seveas> glick, and i consider archive.ubuntu.com a high load datacenter too
[08:39] <Phinite> ahh, I don't normally use the gui stuff.  if you can get it there, I'm sure we can get it with apt, lol.  that was the question though, so thatnks
[08:39] <glick> im thinking of setting ubuntu up as a dual reduntant desktop servers for diskless clients
[08:39] <Phinite> thanks ;)
[08:39] <apokryphos> AlexBO: try apt-get --help for quick list
[08:39] <AlexBO> apokryphos: I've read it too.
[08:39] <Seveas> glick, there are some projects around that going on
[08:39] <Seveas> glick, browse through udu.wiki.ubuntu.com
[08:39] <Garrison> ompaul last isn't a valid command or whatever
[08:40] <Garrison> ompaul; is there another way?
[08:40] <ompaul> ompaul@dhcppc0:~$ sudo last
[08:40] <ompaul> that works :)
[08:40] <Garrison> ompaul, it's a superb servers, server..
[08:40] <Garrison> I'm not root, I dont have root access
[08:40] <apokryphos> AlexBO: apt-get cache --help then
[08:41] <AlexBO> apokryphos: it's the same! :-) and...what about aptitude? i'm reading the man
[08:42] <apokryphos> AlexBO: it's all there. Give me an example of something you want to find out about a pack
[08:42] <rainingzigzags> if i post a link in this room on a system i am thinkin about getting to run a dual boot xp/linux would u all tell me what u think about it?
[08:42] <Garrison> ompaul: whats the file it stores the info in?
[08:42] <apokryphos> AlexBO: whoops apt-cache --help
[08:42] <AlexBO> apokryphos: well... i wanna find informations about gDesklets
[08:43] <AlexBO> apokryphos: yes
[08:43] <AlexBO> apokryphos: showpkg
[08:43] <apokryphos> apt-cache show gdesklets
[08:43] <Raskall> can noone help me with the "error 18" thing? I just don't understand why I all of a sudden get that error
[08:44] <drspin> Raskall: what "error 18 thing" ???
[08:44] <Raskall> I need help, god dammit. I just inserted a disk with ubuntu installed in a compaq evo n600c. It ran very nice. I then ran "apt-get upgrade" and got new linux image of 2.6.10-5-whatever. I then tried to reboot and suddenly get "Error 18: Selected cylinder exceeds maximum supported by BIOS" from grub.
[08:44] <stan-am> hey guys,ive just installed jdk-1_5_0_04-linux-i586.bin, what should i do now to use the bin installer?
[08:44] <Seveas> Raskall: please stop repeating the same question. If someone knows, (s)he will answer. You can try posting on the mailing list too.
[08:44] <Seveas> stan-am: To install java on Ubuntu: download the .bin file from java.sun.com, sudo aptitude install fakeroot java-package, chmod +x [the .bin file] , fakeroot make-jpkg [the bin file] , sudo dpkg -i [the generated .deb file]
[08:44] <AlexBO> apokryphos: apt-cache show gDesklets
[08:44] <Raskall> Seveas: look at the question before my repetition. :)
[08:44] <AlexBO> apokryphos: thanks
[08:44] <drspin> Raskall: did you try dpkg-reconfigure grub ?
[08:44] <Seveas> stan-am, you did the first step of that, now do the rest :)
[08:44] <rainingzigzags> http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1490934&CatId=0  check it out and tell me which u would go for.. this chip or a fx chip... i am building a new linux box
[08:45] <Raskall> drspin: I am unable to boot at all
[08:45] <stan-am> thnx Seveas!
[08:45] <drspin> raskall -- you just need to reinstall grub -- there's more than enough tutorials online
[08:46] <drspin> a quick google reveals about 5 walkthroughs
[08:46] <luzbelito> hi: i had a problem. when i install new packages, and ./configure, always i miss one more package and i lost a lot of time installing one and another time. how can i do for automatize this task ???
[08:46] <drspin> and the experience is worth it -- pain in the ass but worth it
[08:46] <Raskall> drspin: but how do I boot to get to reinstall grub?
[08:46] <drspin> raskall -- LiveCD
[08:46] <ivoks> rescue
[08:46] <Raskall> drspin: tried booting from the live-cd, but there was no grub-install
[08:46] <drspin> or use your installation CD and use rescue mode
[08:47] <Raskall> is there a rescue mode? didn't see one.
[08:47] <drspin> raskall -- so mount your HD and save it on the HD
[08:47] <Seveas> Raskall, there is, use rescue as boot parameter
[08:47] <ivoks> Raskall: there is... just isn't documented :(
[08:47] <toasta> hello, any ideas on how to mount a sco unix filesystem in ubuntu?
[08:47] <ivoks> toasta: we hate SCO here :)
[08:48] <Raskall> so I just type "linux rescue" on the boot prompt?
[08:48] <luzbelito> hi: i had a problem. when i install new packages, and ./configure, always i miss one more package and i lost a lot of time installing one and another time. how can i do for automatize this task ???
[08:48] <ivoks> Raskall: only "rescue"
[08:48] <toasta> i do to, but i cant help but to do this cuz i do data recovery and my sco box crashed so i thought id try to do it in linux
[08:48] <ivoks> toasta: ok, sec...
[08:48] <drspin> toasta: what and ironic series of events
[08:48] <drspin> rofl
[08:49] <toasta> lol
[08:49] <ivoks> toasta: modprobe sysv_fs
[08:49] <Raskall> I thank you in advance. :) I was banging my head quite hard against the wall here.
[08:49] <AlexBO> apokryphos: i think that do things in the console is better. you've more control
[08:49] <ivoks> toasta: pardon... just sysv
[08:49] <apokryphos> AlexBO: it's for more efficacious for some tasks, indeed.
[08:50] <drspin> I keep a good balance of CLI and WM -- really like XFCE :)
[08:50] <stan-am> fakeroot make-jpkg [the bin file] , thats saying command not found
[08:50] <toasta> do i use that with a -t
[08:50] <stan-am> any ideas?
[08:50] <AlbanianLord> whats up folks
[08:50] <toasta> in the mount command i mean
[08:50] <AlexBO> apokryphos: but i've a curiosity. how old is the average linux user?
[08:50] <ivoks> toasta: "modprobe sysv"
[08:50] <AlbanianLord> well
[08:50] <tanki> drspin, are you a dj
[08:50] <khermans> How can I make Video Screen Capture movies?
[08:50] <toasta> ahh
[08:50] <toasta> thanks
[08:51] <drspin> no -- a drummer with a nack of psychology
[08:51] <stan-am> seveas: fakeroot make-jpkg [the bin file] , thats saying command not found
[08:51] <ivoks> toasta: "mount /dev/device /mnt/mountpoint" should be enough then
[08:51] <mefistofeles> where can i find good documentation for Ubuntu?
[08:51] <AlbanianLord> thats a good question
[08:51] <drspin> of=for
[08:51] <tanki> khermans, i dont know any linux program that captures video from the desktop
[08:51] <apokryphos> AlexBO: varies a lot; especially per distro. If you created an average I guess it'd be around the late twenties
[08:51] <drspin> tanki: a drummer with a nack for psychology
[08:51] <AlbanianLord> is there a way you can change xmms' language?
[08:51] <tanki> drspin, :)
[08:51] <AlexBO> apokryphos: how old are you?
[08:51] <khermans> tanki, someone suggested xvidcap -- but it is not avaiable
[08:51] <apokryphos> AlexBO: 18
[08:51] <jesper> khermans: $ apt-cache search video capture desktop
[08:52] <drspin> I'm 22 been linux-strong for a couple of years -- went back to windows and back to linux --
[08:52] <AlexBO> apokryphos: i'm 17
[08:52] <stan-am> seveas: fakeroot make-jpkg [the bin file] , thats saying command not found
[08:52] <kbrooks> Hey.
[08:52] <apokryphos> :)
[08:52] <kbrooks> o
[08:52] <Raskall> agh... I just boot with rescue, mount my ubuntu-partition as root and rund grub-install /dev/hda, right?
[08:52] <kbrooks> I'm 14
[08:52] <AlexBO> apokryphos: the youngs of linux
[08:52] <tanki> drspin, yeah i use both
[08:52] <kbrooks> been on linux for a year
[08:52] <AlexBO> apokryphos: *lol*
[08:52] <stan-am> im 11
[08:52] <apokryphos> AlexBO: there's quite a few younger people though, too
[08:52] <khermans> jesper, nothing
[08:52] <G|immer> i installed d4X on my system, but it gives me "Segmentaiton Fault" when launched?!
[08:52] <drspin> I have windows installed in VmWare only for Adobe Photoshop --
[08:52] <AlexBO> apokryphos: like stan-am
[08:52] <kbrooks> apokryphos, like me
[08:52] <toasta> i really appreciate it
[08:52] <kbrooks> :P
[08:52] <mefistofeles> where can i find good documentation for Ubuntu?
[08:53] <drspin> the Gimp just can't hang -- it can do everything but the interface is hellish
[08:53] <AlexBO> kbrooks: how old are you?
[08:53] <kbrooks> 14
[08:53] <AlbanianLord> ohhhh
[08:53] <Zolty> I am about to ask a very newbie question, I just installed Ubuntu, on install I did not select enough screen resolutions.  IE I go to change the screen resolution and the max I can select is 1028x768 @ 60hz  I am wondering how to let it use more resolutions?
[08:53] <stan-am> hahah im 22 and feel like a dork using this thing
[08:53] <kbrooks> been on linux for a year
[08:53] <tanki> drspin, http://www.math.vt.edu/people/jbwillia/computer.gif :)
[08:53] <apokryphos> kbrooks, AlexBO, stan-am: respect your elders ;-)
[08:53] <kbrooks> Zolty, open a terminal
[08:53] <jesper> khermans: Oh.. that's only in Debian..

[08:53] <khermans> jesper, what package?
[08:53] <toasta> lol
[08:53] <AlexBO> apokryphos: lol
[08:53] <jesper> khermans: gvidcap or xvidcap
[08:53] <khermans> jesper, yes but i cannot install it
[08:53] <AlbanianLord> well is there a way i can change the language or not?
[08:54] <kbrooks> Zolty, applications > system tools > terminal
[08:54] <tanki> stan, view that link it will show how feel in linux early but then it gets better
[08:54] <kbrooks> Zolty, run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[08:54] <mefistofeles> how long does it take to get my copy? I ordered it yesterday
[08:54] <stan-am> hahahahah
[08:54] <stan-am> thnx tanki
[08:55] <tanki> !
[08:55] <jesper> khermans: I'm out of good advice.. I would try to get the debian-source package and recompile it for Hoary..
[08:55] <stan-am> dont get me wrong though, im loving this thing
[08:55] <jesper> But thats a longer shot.
[08:55] <stan-am> i wish i could understand it better
[08:55] <kbrooks> mefistofeles, CDs do not go around like magic
[08:55] <mefistofeles> i know
[08:55] <mefistofeles> im just asking
[08:55] <mefistofeles> how long?
[08:55] <stan-am> im just executing commands with no clue of what they do

[08:56] <AlexBO> apokryphos: where do you live? is linux in the country where you live well know through the people?
[08:56] <AlbanianLord> :jesper is there a way to change xmms default language \
[08:56] <apokryphos> AlexBO: OpenSource in general is more accepted in Europe. I'm in London.
[08:56] <AlbanianLord> apokryphos is probably greek
[08:56] <stan-am> kbrooks: im reading that, but its kinda complicated to learn what do all of these commands im using do in 3 days while im @ work
[08:57] <apokryphos> AlbanianLord: Indeed, I am. =)
[08:57] <AlbanianLord> lol
[08:57] <AlexBO> apokryphos: in Italt ANYBODY knows linux. ask to an italian what is a O.S.
[08:57] <antix> I have some problems with mail-notification. sometimes it's visible and sometimes not...
[08:57] <kbrooks> stan-am, man <command>

[08:57] <stan-am> whats that? kbrooks?
[08:57] <sebastianseb> Hi I am experiencing certain well
[08:57] <jesper> In Denmark people tend to know the frase .. but not what Open Source actually is.
[08:58] <apokryphos> AlexBO: Linux is still by no means mainstream
[08:58] <elmagozizou> Hi does anyone knows how to install 3d dektop on ubunutu? and where i can get it?
[08:58] <mefistofeles> In colombia is practically unknown

[08:58] <Zolty> kbrooks thank you so much worked great
[08:58] <AlbanianLord> hey it could be worse
[08:58] <sebastianseb> Hi I am here for help.  I am experiencing certain weird problems with Ubuntu.  Anyone here will help me?
[08:58] <AlexBO> apokryphos: yes
[08:58] <AlbanianLord> you could be in america...
[08:58] <AlbanianLord> lol
[08:58] <stan-am> ow ok
[08:58] <stan-am> thnx dude
[08:58] <kbrooks> Zolty, yw
[08:58] <evilfix> how come when i type unmount in a shell it says command not found?
[08:58] <mefistofeles> lol....ya io know
[08:58] <AlbanianLord> we hate opensource
[08:58] <kbrooks> stan-am, np
[08:59] <mefistofeles> it is umount
[08:59] <AlbanianLord> lmao
[08:59] <mefistofeles> evilfix> umount
[08:59] <evilfix> oh
[08:59] <mefistofeles> Lol
[08:59] <ompaul> evilfix, sudo might help also
[08:59] <mefistofeles> i used to get the same :P
[08:59] <kbrooks> umount ... historical reasons
[08:59] <AlbanianLord> anyone know how to change xmms' language settings?
[08:59] <mefistofeles> yay
[08:59] <sebastianseb> Ok when your done helping that guy.  Help/try to help me please
[08:59] <tanki> but you can make an unmount alias for umount if you want
[08:59] <kbrooks> sebastianseb, question? ask please
[09:00] <Raskall> drspin: nothing works. tried booting with rescue-option. dpkg-reconfigure grub did not help, neither did "grub-install /dev/hda" or "grub-install /dev/hda --force-lba
[09:00] <sebastianseb> Well ever since I got Ubuntu about a week or so ago.  Well I have been experiencing problesm wilst logging out of the account.
[09:01] <kbrooks> Describe the problems.
[09:01] <ztonzy> apokryphos, I must confess :o) ...I am back using Gnome ;)
[09:01] <sebastianseb> Like the screen woudl go a bit funny for a bit.  Then move the mouse and then back to normal, but now.  Well just now I got a wepbage there.  Also one time when I did this just now.   If you're back using it it must mean that you naturally prefer it. Probably better off with it, then :)
[09:02] <sebastianseb> When I am logged into my Ubuntu account and do system log out
[09:02] <AlbanianLord> kde has a habit of being a pain in the ass
[09:02] <anacron> can somebody help me with making ubuntu work as a router with to network cards
[09:02] <sebastianseb> and it goes to the login screen
[09:02] <pippijn> hi all
[09:02] <AlbanianLord> hello pippijn
[09:02] <apokryphos> ztonzy: I don't think KDE is for everyone, sure. :)
[09:02] <drspin> in America linux usage is either to get away from corporate control on behavior or kids that heard about it want to be l337
[09:02] <ztonzy> apokryphos, I can't understand why kaffeine and konqueror segfaults so often...a friend of mine uses debian/kde...never happens to him
[09:02] <JohnFlux> !hello
[09:03] <XRayNuke> ubotu's down
[09:03] <AlbanianLord> well drspin what if I was a little of both
[09:03] <AlbanianLord> muahahah
[09:03] <AlbanianLord> !
[09:03] <apokryphos> ztonzy: very weird indeed. Did you try the tip on the Kubuntu guide regarding Konqueror segfaults?
[09:03] <ztonzy> apokryphos, so it might lay in kubuntu :o)
[09:03] <drspin> mostly -- there are some like myself that use it because it's logical and I prefer it
[09:03] <drspin> and others tat use it for servers and whatnot
[09:03] <sebastianseb> Well it has been coming up with some weird thing picture or whatever first.  I moved the mouse and it would go away and go back to normal.  Just now it has been coming up wiith like my desktop with the webpage I was on.  I move the mouse and that goes away back to normal.  Also when I logged out  not that long ago.  It  came up with a werid sound that kept on being repated.
[09:03] <pippijn> how stable is Ubuntu in comparison to debian? I am aware of the fact that Ubuntu is based on the latter but maybe there have been additions to the system to make it either more stable or less stable.
[09:03] <ztonzy> apokryphos, hmm, haven't read that
[09:03] <Chrisxx> drspin: Or it could just be someone like me who are taking programming classes and feel that learning a new operating system may help them not be held down
[09:03] <AlbanianLord> i hate microsoft's "dominance"
[09:03] <Markrian> ztonzy, you might want to add a few new lines to your /etc/apt/sources.list to get fixed KD Epackages
[09:03] <ztonzy> Markrian, sorry ?
[09:04] <apokryphos> ztonzy: http://kudos.berlios.de/kf/kf1.html#probkonq1 and below
[09:04] <kbrooks> WAIT WAIT
[09:04] <tanki> JohnFlux, whats konversation
[09:04] <elmagozizou> hoe do i install 3ddektop in ubuntu?
[09:04] <apokryphos> Markrian: he's running 3.4.1
[09:04] <kbrooks> Markrian, hold
[09:04] <toasta> i agree AlbanianLord
[09:04] <sebastianseb> IRC channels sucks badly for suppourt.  I am better off doing this at a forum.  It seems.
[09:04] <JohnFlux> tanki: kde irc client
[09:04] <AlbanianLord> i mean the whole drop support for previous osses thing
[09:04] <Markrian> apokryphos, oh... odd, 3.4.1's pretty solid for me
[09:04] <JohnFlux> tanki: one that I work on ;)
[09:04] <apokryphos> Markrian: likewise
[09:05] <AlbanianLord> and the "everyone who uses linux is a communist" idea that microcrap propagates
[09:05] <AlbanianLord> ugghh
[09:05] <Markrian> sebastianseb, possibly, yes. But your problem sounds odd, might be a hardware problem?
[09:05] <ztonzy> apokryphos, so you mean I can't run with 24bit to have ot stable ?
[09:05] <ztonzy> it*
[09:05] <AlbanianLord> sebastianseb what's the problem
[09:05] <AlbanianLord> ?
[09:05] <Chrisxx> I personally just can't wait until Linux has better support for ATI cards, since thats what is in all of my systems...
[09:05] <Markrian> sebastianseb, when/if you make a forum post, be sure to mention what graphics card you have
[09:05] <kbrooks> AlbanianLord, well, ubuntu supports warty, hoary, etc for 6 months after the release with security updates
[09:05] <mefistofeles> hey can somebody tell me where can I find good documentation for Ubuntu?
[09:06] <kbrooks> release of said distro*
[09:06] <AlbanianLord> microsoft does it to force upgrades

[09:11] <AlbanianLord> you know, perhaps I am falsely implying a negative connotation

[09:11] <anacron> jafn: use samba
[09:11] <Markrian> jafn, you'll need to look at the samba documentation

[09:11] <Markrian> toasta, gnome isn't installed in only one place
[09:12] <Chrisxx> sebastianseb: Usually this room is pretty good, but you just have to be in here at the right time
[09:12] <AlbanianLord> anyway....
[09:12] <Markrian> jafn, what do you mean by archives?
[09:12] <Chrisxx> sebastianseb: I'd help you but I'm just getting started myself

[09:13] <sebastianseb> What are you on about fonts?
[09:13] <toasta> i need to copy some border theme and icon theme files to where they belong and i dont know where that is
[09:13] <Markrian> jafn, I'm not understanding you at all
[09:13] <Chrisxx> disposable_mike: I thought that part of being a ubuntunite (*sp*) is to never refer anyone to ubuntuguide?
[09:13] <sss_lr> jafn: /etc/smb.conf
[09:13] <toasta> well i want to atleast
[09:13] <disposable_mike> Chrisxx: i'm not familiar with the rules, really
[09:13] <Markrian> toasta, I see
[09:13] <disposable_mike> Chrisxx: if so, then my apologies
[09:13] <sebastianseb> What have fonts got to do with any of it isposable_mike?
[09:14] <kbrooks> Chrisxx, the unp decided not to intervene, IIRC. ask nalioth?
[09:14] <Markrian> toasta, where did you get these window border/icon theme files?
[09:14] <Chrisxx> disposable_mike: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/   I believe thats where you're supposed to link to
[09:14] <kbrooks> Chrisxx, STOP
[09:14] <jafn> i need my ubuntu machine to resolve the host names of windows boxes on the same domain or workgroup using a wins server
[09:14] <toasta> art-gnome, from there website
[09:14] <kbrooks> Chrisxx, a few days ago.....
[09:14] <Markrian> toasta, you'll probably want to go to the themes app from the menu and click on "Install Theme..." and choose the files
[09:14] <disposable_mike> Chrisxx: thanks, i'll remember for the future
[09:14] <toasta> there tar.gz files
[09:14] <sebastianseb> I have a question.  Anyone here got AMSN to work properly on Ubuntu?  ,because I have been trying to get it to work prooplery, but well.  Well.......
[09:14] <kbrooks> Chrisxx, hold a sec
[09:14] <Chrisxx> kbrooks: What?
[09:15] <Markrian> toasta, http://art.gnome.org/faq.php tells you
[09:15] <kbrooks> Chrisxx, a thread was brought to nalioth's attention that specifically said that the ubuntu wiki was hard to navigate
[09:15] <kbrooks> 4779, i believe
[09:16] <jafn> could somebody help me?
[09:16] <kbrooks> cant remember the thread id anymore
[09:16] <aeho> Is setting my system language from finnish to english easily possible?
[09:16] <Markrian> jafn, you need to read the samba documentation!
[09:17] <kbrooks> Chrisxx, and a user also said that he learned what the commands in the ubuntu guide do
[09:17] <Chrisxx> kbrooks: Okay, well I was told to never refer anyone to ubuntuguide because it doesn't explain it just tells you ways to do sutff
[09:17] <kbrooks> Chrisxx, by who and when?
[09:17] <Chrisxx> kbrooks: commands to put in to do it* not explaining how it works
[09:18] <kbrooks> Chrisxx, the wiki is difficult to navigate.
[09:18] <Chrisxx> someone linked me to a site saying if you're going to do support in the channel to use the wiki
[09:18] <Markrian> jafn, http://samba.org/samba/docs/
[09:18] <kbrooks> Chrisxx, Please read my comments about the wiki.
[09:18] <lcdd> aeho: dpkg-reconfigure locales
[09:19] <Chrisxx> kbrooks: I did, I was just saying that is what I was told, I'm sorry if it was incorrect
[09:19] <Veeder> hi im running warty4.10 . ive tried and failed to get any 3D app goin on my machine, have a Geforce5200, can anyone help me out?
[09:20] <kbrooks> Chrisxx, would you show a newbie the "Java" wiki page which had SEVEN choices before I last revamped it?
[09:20] <Markrian> Veeder, do you have restricted-modules installed?
[09:20] <Efwis> I must agree the ubuntuguide could use a little tweaking, but if you look in the wiki, on some things it actually tells you to go to ubunutguide.org lol, its like a round robin game
[09:20] <Chrisxx> kbrooks: I AM a newbie....I started about a week ago
[09:21] <Veeder> ahh no idea what they are... but sure ive been installin and tryin a lot of things.. thru apt-get :D
[09:21] <Veeder> Markrian:  can i pvt. im a newbie need help BIG TIME!
[09:22] <dreldy> hi im new to ubuntu but am really liking it
[09:22] <Markrian> Veeder, keep the convo in here
[09:22] <Troy_McClure> why is my sound busted... :(
[09:22] <dreldy> i have a wireless internet connection
[09:22] <Markrian> Veeder, http://ubuntuguide.org/4.10/index.html#installnvidiadriver
[09:22] <kbrooks> Chrisxx, ok. let me reverse it. would you be happy if I showed you the Java wiki page BEFORE I last revamped it? 7 --> 3. would you like having to choose from seven choices?
[09:22] <dreldy> but i have to activate everytime i restart why is this and how do i sort it
[09:22] <Veeder> tried tried that!!!!!!!!!!
[09:22] <Markrian> Veeder, and?
[09:22] <kbrooks> Veeder, hoary or warty?
[09:23] <Markrian> What happened?
[09:23] <Markrian> warty
[09:23] <Veeder> Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[09:23] <Veeder> Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual
[09:23] <Veeder> warty 4.1
[09:23] <Chrisxx> kbrooks: I don't deny that ubuntuguide may be better, its just that I was told about 3 days ago to only use the wiki, that is about how long I
[09:23] <Chrisxx> have been using linux
[09:23] <Veeder> thats what i get for glxgears
[09:23] <kbrooks> Chrisxx, please answer my question.
[09:24] <topyli> darn. i forgot to run unison at the end of the day at work
[09:24] <Markrian> Veeder, have you restarted GNOME/the computer as it told you to in the guide?
[09:24] <Chrisxx> kbrooks: No I wouldn't but I don't see how that is relevant.  The fact remains that I was simply forwarding something I was told, and it was from the official ubuntu website
[09:24] <Markrian> Veeder, did you install everything it said in the guide?
[09:25] <kbrooks> Chrisxx, the ubuntu guide is obviously better.
[09:25] <Troy_McClure> does anyone know the link to the !sound trigger
[09:25] <Troy_McClure> ?
[09:25] <kbrooks> !sound
[09:25] <Troy_McClure> bot is gone
[09:25] <hajiki> Veeder, did you uncomment the GLX module from /etc/X11/xorg.conf ?
[09:25] <Troy_McClure> :P
[09:25] <Veeder> Markrian: ive been goin thru this for 2days now... tried the guide... and every other thing... the weird thing is i never had to make any changes anywahere.. regarding the driver. but this is not gettin me anywhere
[09:26] <Veeder> yeah.. i've edited xorg.. to work with other resolutions as well... no luck!!!
[09:26] <Chrisxx> kbrooks:  I'm not sure if you have gotten what I've been typing, I don't deny that ubuntuguide may be better, but I was told that to forward people to the wiki if at all possible
[09:26] <Veeder> u think upgrading to hoary can help?
[09:26] <Troy_McClure> Veeder, what videocard do you have?
[09:26] <hajiki> Veeder, you have this in there? Load    "glx"
[09:26] <kbrooks> Chrisxx, Yes, you were told.
[09:26] <dreldy> if someone is free and can help can they please type "I"
[09:26] <Markrian> Veeder, I'd say upgrade to hoary either way :)
[09:26] <Veeder> Nvidia geforve5200
[09:27] <Veeder> heh
[09:27] <Troy_McClure> Veeder,
[09:27] <Troy_McClure> what error do you get when you try to start an openGL ap?
[09:27] <Veeder> am dowloading.. but just looking for one last hope... if any
[09:27] <topyli> dreldy: you need to ask a question. then maybe someone will know if they are able to help you
[09:27] <Chrisxx> kbrooks: I really don't see any point to your arguement, I was told to forward people there and you insist that yours is better, I was just doing what I read that I was supposed to do
[09:27] <Veeder> Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[09:27] <Veeder> Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual
[09:27] <Troy_McClure> try this
[09:27] <Troy_McClure> open you xorg.conf
[09:27] <Veeder> Troy_McClure: none of my games are loading...
[09:28] <Troy_McClure> there will be a line that say UseInterAGPGART or something
[09:28] <Troy_McClure> it will say =yes
[09:28] <Troy_McClure> change that to no
[09:28] <Veeder> k
[09:28] <truz24> mysql_connect works fine in php using apache, but it says undefined function from the command line, how can i fix this ?
[09:28] <topyli> kbrooks: ubuntuguide is not "obviously better". it's just a list of commands for newbies to blindly type in their terminals as root
[09:28] <Will_> topyli: Or for people who know what they are doing, but forget the method 100%
[09:28] <jd-multi> hey all :D
[09:28] <jd-multi> I'm new to Ubuntu, I just tried it :P
[09:29] <highvoltage> hey jd-multi. congratulations!
[09:29] <jd-multi> how can I run Ubuntu from usb?
[09:29] <topyli> Will_: true
[09:29] <jd-multi> :P
[09:29] <teferi_> truz24: why are you trying to use php outside of apache in the first place? :P
[09:29] <kbrooks> topyli, Think about the example of the wiki page.
[09:29] <Markrian> jd-multi, first impressions?
[09:29] <Troy_McClure> Veeder: this line Option "UseInternalAGPGART" change it to no
[09:29] <stan-am> hey kbrooks
[09:29] <jd-multi> Marble2, really clean, nice It looks little like Mac OSx which I use at work :P
[09:29] <topyli> kbrooks: which one?
[09:29] <stan-am> sorry bout that
[09:30] <kbrooks> topyli, Java
[09:30] <Markrian> jd-multi, good to hear. A lot of the interface is 'inspired' by Mac OS X, yes
[09:30] <kbrooks> topyli, It had too much suggestions.
[09:30] <jd-multi> yeah
[09:30] <jd-multi> but I found some little problems with it :/
[09:30] <kbrooks> topyli, 7, to be exact.
[09:30] <topyli> kbrooks: options :)
[09:30] <dreldy> I need to send a file from my linux box to my windows box whats the quickest way to do it?
[09:30] <dreldy> I need to send a file from my linux box to my windows box whats the quickest way to do it?
[09:30] <Veeder> hmm.. Troy_McClure is Xorg.conf another file, what i edited last time was  XF86Config-4
[09:30] <mefistofeles> hey is there a problem between ubuntu and ati's video cards???
[09:31] <topyli> kbrooks: iirc, it also says it's best to build your own debian package with java-package. which is correct
[09:31] <kbrooks> topyli, whatever. i revamped it
[09:31] <jd-multi> the rhytmplayer drops streaming a lot, and firefox has some little website display issues :)
[09:31] <Markrian> Veeder, you're right, edit XF86Config-4 :p
[09:31] <mefistofeles> hey is there a problem between ubuntu and ati's video cards???
[09:31] <dreldy> I need to send a file from my linux box to my windows box whats the quickest way to do it?
[09:31] <kbrooks> so now there are 3 choices
[09:31] <Troy_McClure> xorg.conf is in /etc/X11/
[09:31] <Markrian> Veeder, xorg.conf is in hoary, not warty (which you've got)
[09:31] <Troy_McClure> oh but the line should still be in there
[09:31] <dreldy> I need to send a file from my linux box to my windows box whats the quickest way to do it?
[09:31] <dreldy> I need to send a file from my linux box to my windows box whats the quickest way to do it?

[09:32] <dark> dreldy: then hey didnt want to. google samba.
[09:32] <Markrian> dreldy, imagine if EVERYONE in the channel did that to try and get their questions answered

[09:40] <mefistofeles> oh
[09:40] <BounceBounce> djabrail, no sorry...
[09:40] <teferi_> breezy is the current beta
[09:40] <mefistofeles> hahahah ok thx u all
[09:40] <kbrooks> teferi_, not 'beta'
[09:40] <kbrooks> inaccurate term
[09:40] <Efwis> well that was a nice confusing convo lol
[09:41] <topyli> kbrooks: aww... now you left out the actual description of the method :)
[09:41] <Veeder> sorry.. im only 5days.. into ubuntu :p just lovin it... heh sorry if i was wrong
[09:41] <kbrooks> topyli, I left the repos out
[09:41] <teferi_> kbrooks: you're right, brainfart
[09:41] <teferi_> "unstable"
[09:41] <topyli> kbrooks: oh, now it's in method 2
[09:42] <to|m> WHich gnome app I need 2 explore my windows network well?
[09:42] <khermans> No one has ever captured their Desktop presentation with Video Capture in Linux?
[09:42] <djabrail> which wm are you using BounceBounce
[09:42] <kbrooks> topyli, I removed them because they distract from the name of the method
[09:43] <BounceBounce> gnome
[09:44] <topyli> kbrooks: ok, it's all just fine i guess, there's just some old cruft at the top
[09:44] <to|m> ohmy dear forget my last q ;)
[09:44] <djabrail> have you ever try something else BounceBounce ?
[09:44] <topyli> kbrooks: sorry, i misunderstood
[09:44] <topyli> kbrooks: it's just about perfect
[09:44] <djabrail> OK THERE ARE WMII USERS HERE ?
[09:45] <topyli> djabrail: there are no yellers, that much we know
[09:45] <Panzerboy> !info f-spot
[09:45] <Thorrn4> hello!! kde gives me errors about DCOPSERVER is not loaded; non of kde programs will work...what is can do?
[09:45] <djabrail> yellers ?
[09:45] <khermans> djabrail, wmii??
[09:45] <topyli> djabrail: yeah, people who YELL
[09:45] <djabrail> http://wmi.modprobe.de/...give it a try...
[09:46] <djabrail> dictonnary...2secs..
[09:47] <husher> anyone here used the linux-abi package?
[09:47] <djabrail> husher, yep
[09:47] <husher> djabrail, successfully?
[09:48] <G|immer> oh! oh! i accidentally removed the recycle bin from Gnom's taskbar, how to get it back?
[09:48] <to|m> firefox 1.5 is on the way ,)
[09:48] <to|m> +.0
[09:48] <hondje> G|immer: right click on the panel, pick 'add to panel'
[09:48] <topyli> G|immer: right click the panel (there's no taskbar) and add it back
[09:49] <hondje> G|immer: then pick the trash can
[09:49] <messju> 1.0.5 i guess
[09:49] <Efwis> G|immer, then put it where yo want it on the panel
[09:49] <djabrail> husher, yeah 've got a pb ?
[09:50] <G|immer> cool! i could just move it with the mouse!
[09:50] <G|immer> thnx all. it's back. hehe
[09:50] <husher> djabrail, i'm jsut wondering how hard it si to get running
[09:50] <Garrison> ompaul: what was that link you gave me?
[09:50] <Garrison> heh, sorry, i was distracted with a security issue
[09:51] <djabrail> khermans,  you got a look to wmii ?
[09:51] <djabrail> husher, nop..
[09:51] <anacron_> how can i make my ubuntu a router?
[09:52] <Discipulus> anacron_, install and configure routed and install more than one NIC
[09:52] <anacron_> nic?
[09:52] <topyli> anacron_: a network kard
[09:52] <Discipulus> anacron_, usually they wanna use a Linux machine as a firewall, not a router
[09:53] <jd-multi> I've got a install-sh, how can I install it ?
[09:53] <Discipulus> anacron_, a PC is genereally multi-purpose, where as a router is an embedded system that has a specific function
[09:53] <djabrail> y a t il des francais ici ?
[09:53] <Discipulus> djabrail, #ubuntu-fr
[09:53] <Quest-Master> djabrail: #ubuntu-fr
[09:53] <djabrail> thx
[09:53] <anacron_> Discipulus: well usually when you make firewall it's also a router (nat)
[09:54] <djabrail> see ya'...http://wmi.modprobe.de/...it's worth ;)
[09:54] <topyli> anacron_: i just told firestarter to do it for eth1
[09:54] <Discipulus> anacron_, no, not the way I look at it
[09:54] <jd-multi> I have no idea how to run a install-sh :/
[09:54] <anacron_> topyli: i can't get it work
[09:54] <jd-multi> I tried run, and run in kernal or something
[09:54] <Discipulus> internet <--> Linux <--> Router <--> (x5) Computer
[09:54] <topyli> anacron_: although i'd call it "ip masquerading" not routing i guess
[09:55] <topyli> but what do i know :)
[09:55] <mostrodibiscotti> what news reader do you guys reccommend (usenet groups)
[09:55] <anacron_> topyli: well if it can share my internet more than 5 people it'll do
[09:55] <husher> djabrail, have you got it running under ubuntu?
[09:55] <hondje> mostrodibiscotti: I like pan
[09:56] <topyli> anacron_: uhh... why not but you'd probably need a switch. i only have one windows client here
[09:56] <topyli> anacron_: i'm not the man you want to ask for networking help really :)
[09:57] <jd-multi> can someone help me how to use a install-sh, I tried to run it, but didn't do anything :/
[09:57] <anacron_> topyli: well yeah, maybe it's not working because im trying to get it work with my wlan box which is already router
[09:58] <mostrodibiscotti> thanks, hondje
[09:58] <kbrooks> one layer? god
[09:58] <keikoz> pls how can i can i check the cpu temperature under ubuntu ?
[09:58] <topyli> anacron_: maybe you need to setup a dhcp server as well
[09:58] <anacron_> topyli: can you help me with that
[09:58] <Efwis> keikoz, if you system has the sensors on the chips, you can install lmsensors and gdesklets from synaptic
[09:59] <khermans> Anyone know how to create a RARE archive of a folder?
[09:59] <khermans> rar
[09:59] <hondje> yes, with the 'rar' command
[09:59] <anacron_> i thought i already had dhcp server, how can i check out if i have one?
[09:59] <topyli> anacron_: no, i just set static IPs for these two boxen
[09:59] <khermans> yea, but is do "rar a folder" and says no files
[09:59] <topyli> anacron_: your situation is more complicated
[10:00] <kbrooks> omg omg omg
[10:00] <keikoz> mmh ok Efwis thx
[10:00] <anacron_> topyli: can you tell me what is gateway address and do i need to setup that
[10:00] <Panzerboy> anyone here using monotheca?
[10:01] <topyli> topyli: dunno, my gateway seems to be just "*" :)
[10:01] <Troy_McClure> anyone here use amarok?
[10:01] <anacron_> topyli: ok
[10:01] <weirdcreep> i do
[10:01] <Troy_McClure> okay, maybe you can help me
[10:02] <Troy_McClure> i installed it last night using apt-get install amarok
[10:02] <khermans> Troy_McClure, amarok is kinda cool
[10:02] <khermans> i like the lyrics it retrieves for songs
[10:02] <Troy_McClure> and also did apt-get install amarok-engine but that failed, but i have no engine though, so it does not play music
[10:02] <sinferno> hey, can i use the transgaming virtual drive with wine instead of setting up another one?
[10:04] <topyli> khermans: amarok does that? sweet(ish)
[10:04] <khermans> topyli, yes
[10:04] <kbrooks> gconf rules
[10:05] <khermans> topyli, nat friedman is an uber programmer
[10:05] <khermans> but why in c# ?
[10:05] <topyli> yep
[10:06] <khermans> all the programming gods use eiffel
[10:06] <kbrooks> lol
[10:06] <topyli> khermans: dunno, but all the real innovation seems to happen in the Mono camp
[10:06] <topyli> i don't no why
[10:07] <anacron_> blaah, why is it always such a hard thing to set linux up
[10:07] <jesper> anacron_: It has never been easier.
[10:07] <khermans> anacron_, i would argue that for Windows!
[10:08] <kbrooks> heh
[10:08] <khermans> anacron_, you have to go out and download all this pirated software, then run the cracks, then tweak user settings, etc...
[10:08] <anacron_> jesper: might be but it's still not "easy"
[10:08] <kbrooks> define easy
[10:08] <dell500> has anyone gotten lm-sensors to work?
[10:08] <ompaul> Garrison, after a lot of messing around - this looks the most interesting - not the kind of solution I like but there you go, you could of course file a bug report :)  http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/doc-php/template.php?company=Nvidia&card=.&chip=nForce&module=intel8x0
[10:08] <bionic> when compiling a new kernel, where is the initrd file?
[10:08] <ompaul> Garrison, that one?
[10:09] <bionic> to put in menu.lst
[10:09] <CountDown> How can I get access to the parallel port?  I keep getting "cat: /dev/lp0: Input/output error".
[10:09] <hondje> if you're not using make-kpkg, you follow the regular rules
[10:10] <bionic> im not, and the regular rules are?
[10:10] <anacron_> has anyone ubuntu running in mini-itx pc?
[10:13] <ompaul> anacron_, I think so from the lists on google http://episteme.arstechnica.com/eve/ubb.x/a/tpc/f/77909585/m/740008223731 for example :)
[10:13] <struggler> is this right?
[10:13] <struggler> one would think this would create a link
[10:13] <struggler> but the link actually points to /etc/rc5.d/init.d/postgresql
[10:14] <ompaul> anacron_, I had one running Mandrake RH SuSE and some other random variations I no longer have the box to play with :( so ubuntu I can't comment on from a personal perspective
[10:15] <messju> i have a problem with the administration/networking. it doesn't save my settings persistently, i have to reconfigure it everytime i boot. is this a known issue?
[10:16] <Discipulus> I LOVE YOU ALL!
[10:16] <walaber> anyone with experience installing atmelwlan driver?
[10:16] <Panzerboy> Discipulus: we don't love you :)
[10:17] <Discipulus> :'(
[10:17] <CountDown> Now that love is in the air, anyone know why "cat /dev/lp0" returns an error?
[10:18] <AlexBO> Discipulus: ???
[10:19] <ompaul> CountDown, lp0 is a device - usually a printer
[10:19] <CountDown> ompaul: It's not the parallel port?
[10:19] <Discipulus> alejandro, YOU DON'T LOVE ME!
[10:19] <ompaul> CountDown, well it can be that also :) usually where I put printers (well dot matrix ones anyway)
[10:20] <AlexBO> Discipulus: if you are a pretty girl, then i love you! else...
[10:20] <CountDown> ompaul: I'm trying to access the parallel port, but I keep getting an error saying the port is in use.  Is there another name for the device?
[10:20] <Discipulus> lol
[10:21] <ompaul> ompaul@dhcppc0:~$ ls -al /dev/lp0 :: crw-rw----  1 root lp 6, 0 2005-07-14 12:12 /dev/lp0 so I guess not
[10:21] <Discipulus> I LOVE YOU ALL
[10:21] <walaber> I'm trying to get my USB wlan card working, it's listed as supported by atmelwlan driver
[10:21] <walaber> from synaptic I can get the source, but having trouble installing
[10:21] <CountDown> completeness :)
[10:22] <CountDown> ompaul: What do you get when you try "cat /dev/lp0"?
[10:22] <AlexBO> Discipulus: we are a big community. evrybody needs each other. evrybody loves each other.
[10:22] <LinuxJones> ompaul, the a shows hiddin directories/files
[10:22] <ompaul> Discipulus, please stop shouting [the caps on is considered shouting, you would not shout at people you loved now would you?]
[10:22] <Troy_McClure> what package can i download that has an mp3 decoder?
[10:22] <mbirkis> why isn't my glx working? i just installed the nvidia_glx driver and restarted x?
[10:22] <toasta> i was just about to as that
[10:23] <ompaul> LinuxJones, yeah, but why did I use it ;-) I still can't figure out
[10:23] <toasta> about the codec that is
[10:23] <ompaul> CountDown, an error
[10:23] <harold> Everyone: As usual, there's nobody here.
[10:23] <Discipulus> ompaul, yes I would!
[10:23] <harold> LOL
[10:23] <LinuxJones> ompaul, I do it all the time as well :D
[10:23] <aeho> have you edited your xorg.conf to use "nvidia" driver instead of nv?
[10:23] <Discipulus> ompaul, when I tell them that I love the
[10:23] <Di42lo> What was the name of the video player like mplayer ?
[10:23] <Discipulus> ompaul, them
[10:23] <Discipulus> ompaul, as long as I'm not standing right next to them
[10:23] <joefre> Di42lo: xine? totem?
[10:23] <Discipulus> gxine?
[10:23] <CountDown> ompaul: Yeah, me too.  So, how is one supposed to use the parallel port if the lp module creates it and then uses it the entire time?
[10:23] <Di42lo> yeah xine
[10:23] <toasta> i thought the w32 codec would, but i dont know
[10:23] <Di42lo> thx
[10:24] <walaber> Troy_McClure - get the gstreamer package
[10:24] <CountDown> Is there a mkdev command that can initialize the parallel port?
[10:25] <walaber> Troy: gstreamer0.8-mad
[10:25] <toasta> c yas
[10:25] <harold> Anyone: Know of a low-memory web browser (w/GUI)?
[10:25] <ompaul> CountDown, I am going to spend a little time in the next few days getting to the bottom of something similar with serial ports in the next few days - have a look at pic programming under GNU to get some clues as to how to interface with them
[10:25] <eliUbuntu> anyone know how to speed up the bootup time? the network part is particularly slow
[10:26] <harold> eliUbuntu: My bootup is painfully slow, on a 233MHz PowerBook G3.
[10:26] <Troy_McClure> walaber, i did
[10:26] <Troy_McClure> but it still does not work...
[10:26] <CountDown> ompaul: Okay, good luck with that.  I'm trying to get a Macraigor JTAG programmer going under Rowley's CrossStudio.
[10:26] <zukalk> harold, Opera uses less resources than Gecko (Mozilla, Firefox, Epiphany, etc)
[10:27] <eliUbuntu> harold: ouch... my computer is a amd 64 with 2.2 ghz... so i think it should be too slow
[10:27] <walaber> Troy: that worked for me.. :(
[10:27] <harold> Troy_McClure: You have a cool name (whereas I don't).
[10:27] <LinuxJones> harold, your running Gnome ?
[10:27] <harold> zukalk: Any choice besides Opera?
[10:27] <topyli> harold: links2, dillo
[10:28] <harold> LinuxJones: I'm running xcfe4
[10:28] <zukalk> harold, dunno. i'll google a bit
[10:28] <demirg> hi all, do i need to install nvidia drivers just like debian to make xorg faster???
[10:28] <Troy_McClure> walaber, do you mean the amarok-gstreamer engine?
[10:28] <harold> topyli: Is linkys2 GUI?
[10:28] <eliUbuntu> harold: opera is one of the lightest browsers and very fast as well
[10:28] <walaber> Troy: no, didn't install that...
[10:28] <LinuxJones> harold, dillo is a very basic web browser
[10:28] <Troy_McClure> what command did you use to get gstreamer
[10:28] <topyli> harold: i think links2 has a --with-gui build option or something.
[10:28] <ciocanel> hello, i'm having problems with gaim and msn, it say that i need ssl support in order to log in... can anyone tell me what to do?
[10:28] <harold> LinuxJones: I just began using dillo.
[10:29] <walaber> Troy: just used the synaptic manager
[10:29] <eliUbuntu> demirg: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[10:29] <harold> LinuxJones: I'd like something that renders a bit better, though.
[10:29] <walaber> no one with any exp. installing atmelwlan driver?
[10:29] <demirg> thanks eliUbuntu
[10:29] <harold> topyli: Wow, didn't even *know* there was a GUI-links.
[10:30] <XRayNuke> Anyone running Basilisk II on Ubuntu PPC?
[10:30] <eliUbuntu> demirg: np :)
[10:30] <ompaul> Troy_McClure, should we remember you from other distros? where you played the part of a device driver and never really the kernel
[10:30] <topyli> harold: you still don't know that. i may remember wrong :)
[10:30] <jafn> bye
[10:30] <harold> XRayNuke: What is Basilisk II?
[10:30] <LinuxJones> harold, webbrowsers are resource hogs for the most part :(
[10:30] <jafn> all you people
[10:30] <XRayNuke> harold: 68k Mac emulator
[10:30] <jafn> work day is over
[10:30] <harold> topyli: Okay, I'll keep that in mind, LOL
[10:31] <eliUbuntu> LinuxJones: thats true.. too bad
[10:31] <Troy_McClure> walaber, the synaptic manager does not have that in it..
[10:31] <harold> XRayNuke: Now why would you want to do that?  :)
[10:31] <harold> LinuxJones: Any relation to Star Jones?
[10:31] <demirg> eliUbuntu: :)
[10:31] <weirdcreep> tom jones?
[10:32] <LinuxJones> eliUbuntu, yea would be nice for a lightweight browser that actually looks reasonable and has a few features like popup blocking :)
[10:32] <harold> XRayNuke: Out of curiosity, which apps are you going to run on that 68k emulator?
[10:32] <LinuxJones> harold, nope :)
[10:32] <eliUbuntu> LinuxJones: yep
[10:33] <XRayNuke> harold: old games mostly. Stuff that doesn't work quite right under MacOS 9
[10:33] <zerboxx> Will the command "sh *.sh" work with Ubuntu Live?
[10:33] <Discipulus> any girls in here? (Yea right...)
[10:33] <harold> LinuxJones: I just began using kazehakase - it seems kind of neat, but I'm not certain it's memory requirements are lower than any other flavor of Mozilla.
[10:34] <eliUbuntu> the new netscape for windows = nightmare
[10:34] <harold> XRayNuke: I see you here all the time.  Let me know if you ever want to go a round of Quake or Marathon.
[10:34] <LinuxJones> harold, I have not even heard of that let me have a look
[10:34] <Synergy> jo dude how can i register en reserve my nick
[10:35] <XRayNuke> harold: will do. Marathon actually runs on pretty much anything since Bungie opensourced it: http://source.bungie.org
[10:35] <Synergy> with nickserve
[10:35] <walaber_> anyone installed the atmelwlan driver?
[10:35] <Riggzy> type   /msg nickserv register password email
[10:35] <Riggzy> and rep[lace the appropriate things
[10:36] <harold> LinuxJones: Someone here told me about kazehakase the other day, so I installed it.  Google it for an explanation of its mission/purpose.
[10:36] <Synergy> thnx
[10:36] <Riggzy> Anyway... I'm downloading Kubuntu - and was wondering what kind of installer ubuntu has - is it graphical?
[10:36] <LinuxJones> harold, yeah I am looking @t it right now :)
[10:36] <Synergy> Riggzy, yes
[10:36] <harold> XRayNuke: Yes, I once installed something that allowed Marathon to be played online.  Forget what it's called; it began with an "A", I think.
[10:36] <Riggzy> Synergy - goood, lol
[10:37] <Riggzy> I tried installing gentoo the other day, my eyes just glazed over
[10:37] <Synergy> gentoo rulez
[10:37] <topyli> harold: check out these screenshots of basic links (not links2): http://atrey.karlin.mff.cuni.cz/~clock/twibright/links/features.html
[10:37] <Synergy> Riggzy, I thinks it is the best dis.
[10:37] <bojan> hi! i would like to install anjuta, but it seems that there is no makefile
[10:37] <zerboxx> Will the command "sh *.sh" work with Ubuntu Live?
[10:37] <harold> XRayNuke: Do you remember how long ago Bungie revealed the source code; I'm not sure I was aware of that.
[10:38] <Synergy> gentoo is F***** good
[10:38] <Synergy> for a server
[10:38] <Riggzy> Synergy - lol, yeah, I hear its good, but I'm just going past the novice stage in Linux, so maybe I'll try it when I'm a bit more knowleedgeable
[10:38] <jkka> Riggzy: after you try gentoo, you are more knowledgeable
[10:38] <anacron_> i tried to install gentoo once, but it didn't work so i installed debian, and now im using ubuntu :)
[10:39] <jkka> then you can come back to ubuntu
[10:39] <jkka> :)
[10:39] <Riggzy> lol
[10:39] <Synergy> yeah ofcourse
[10:39] <bojan> hallo?
[10:39] <Riggzy> I just had a harddrive failure - so I dont want to be aprtitioning in the command line any time soon
[10:39] <Davey> pfft, after using FreeBSD remotely for 5 years, *then* you're more knowledgable :D
[10:39] <Synergy> bojan, hoi
[10:39] <bojan> Synergy, hi
[10:39] <bojan> Synergy, there is no makefile in the anjuta folder
[10:39] <zerboxx> Any help w the sh command & UbuntuLive?
[10:40] <anacron_> what's the command to start esd manually?
[10:40] <eternale1> is ubuntu making a package for firefox1.0.5
[10:41] <sinferno> hey how do i get info on a process in top?
[10:41] <harold> Anyone: What percentage of HD space should you typically leave available for Linux/Ubuntu?
