[21:16] <kevin_> snuxoll: i understand all the comuninty policys so if you would stop harrasing me then that would be great
[21:16] <Noble1> fccf: Did you find anything while I was away? *angeleyes*
[21:17] <nickoe> ZykoticK9, I just installed acroread from the deb at http://get.adobe.com/dk/reader/otherversions/
[21:17] <guntbert> kevin_: please stop that discussion *here*
[21:17] <blizzkid> kevin_: snuxoll is clearly not harrasing you. Please behave, or leave right now!
[21:17] <kevin_> snuxoll: did i not say i was going to read the code?
[21:17] <progre55> hatter243, what is a wirechoke? :)
[21:17] <dajhorn> fcn: You can export a video into still frames like this:  mplayer -vo jpeg  <stuff>
[21:17] <ZykoticK9> nickoe, NICE that's an even easier solution :)
[21:17] <kevin_> tata fo now xDD
[21:17] <liamo1> I have libgfortran.so.3 symlink in usr/lib. If i drop libgfortran.so.1 and its target into this directory will the programs that use each of the libraries find them correctly?
[21:17] <nickoe> But ZykoticK9 thank you!
[21:17] <hatter243> progre55, I don't know if grounded is the right word... Uh... they're getting signal interferance from the magnetic fields that are around every power cable. Either move the wire further away from sources of power or buy a choke.... Let me see if I can find a link
[21:18]  * blizzkid offers snuxoll a beer
[21:18] <jillian> how do i get my webcam to work on ubuntu 9.04. Won't recognize my webcam or camera
[21:18] <fccf> Noble1: no I haven't - and am a little busy with actual work at the moment ... my boss just showed up
[21:18] <lucas_> what is the difference between ubuntu 9.04 and 9.10
[21:18] <snuxoll> blizzkid: how about some vodka and cranberry juice instead?  I don't really do beer
[21:19] <fcn> dajhorn, thank you
[21:19] <Noble1> fccf: Ok np. Take care. I'll do some research myself.
[21:19] <blizzkid> fine too snuxoll ;)
[21:19] <ZykoticK9> lucas_, 9.10 is basically BETA
[21:19] <snuxoll> 9.10 isn't even alpha
[21:19] <progre55> hatter243, oh, now I get it :) but the wires are separate from each other. I mean, the audio and the power. mb it's smth internet within the laptop?
[21:19] <lucas_> it is alpha
[21:19] <lucas_> :D
[21:19] <fccf> lucas_: 9.10 has not been publically released 9 means 2009 ... 10 means october
[21:19] <blizzkid> snuxoll: 9.10 is alpha 2 to be correct ;)
[21:19] <snuxoll> blizzkid: already?
[21:19] <blizzkid> yeah
[21:19] <snuxoll> trucking along then, aren't we?
[21:20] <BradP> q:  running 9.04 off try me CD; where are files being stored?
[21:20] <blizzkid> snuxoll: "we"'ll have to in order to have a final in October :)
[21:20] <snuxoll> blizzkid: I suppose :)
[21:20] <fccf> BradP:  A. in your ram
[21:20] <hatter243> progre55, do you know if the grounding plug on your laptop is working? It would be the round third plug
[21:20] <jillian> anyone know how to get ubuntu to recognize my webcam and camera
[21:21] <hatter243> progre55, if it is not functioning, one of these would help: http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2104010
[21:21] <BradP> fccf: downloaded applications are being kept in RAM?
[21:21] <fccf> BradP: i you are running from the live cd ... then yes...
[21:21] <recursion> zzz: are you still here?
[21:21] <ZykoticK9> jillian, do you have cheese installed?  does it recognize your camera?  what apps have you tried it with?
[21:21] <zzz> recursion: Yes.
[21:21] <blizzkid> BradP: the entire livecd environment is kept in ram
[21:21] <jillian> yes..cheese is installed but does not recognize
[21:21] <jillian> just cheese
[21:22] <BradP> fccf: I'm looking for a way to save what I have going on for next time; I have cleanup to do before a full install, but everything is running sweet
[21:22] <jillian> skype not recognizing it either
[21:22] <Slart> guntbert: hmmm it seems that running "apt-cache pkgnames -o Apt::Cache::Allnames=false" instead of just "apt-cache pkgnames" might do the trick.. truecrypt isn't included any more at least
[21:22] <recursion> zzz:I did what you suggested, and that worked. the exec. I also commented out tdw&. So sweet.
[21:22] <progre55> hatter243, oh, now I see what the problem is. I have recently changed my laptop plug, and it actually doesnt have a grounding plug :) thanks a lot man, I'll try to find one with a grounding then :)
[21:22] <fccf> BradP: guess what ... when you reboot... everything and I mean everything is gone
[21:22] <zzz> recursion: Glad to help. :)
[21:22] <hatter243> progre55, Good luck!
[21:22]  * BradP is not surprised, just hoping for a hack
[21:22] <recursion> Now to work on my next error:
[21:22] <recursion> Xlib:  extension "Generic Event Extension" missing on display ":1.0".
[21:22] <ZykoticK9> jillian, what model is it?
[21:23] <blizzkid> BradP: you just want to save a list of installed packages? or all your work too?
[21:23] <recursion> Anyone know anything about the Xlib thing?
[21:23] <BradP> blizzkid: whatever I can.  I would be happy to have it all.
[21:23] <guntbert> Slart: pheew, how did you find *that*? (but I'm afraid we are drifting off topic...)
[21:23] <blizzkid> BradP: there's a workaround...
[21:23] <fccf> BradP: you could use aptoncd to store the applications you have installed ... then reinstall them later
[21:23]  * BradP smiles
[21:23] <jillian> sony cybershot camera and
[21:23] <dyier> dajhorn is that something I can get through synaptic?
[21:24] <jillian> iconcepts webcam
[21:24] <jillian> webcam and mic in one
[21:24] <ZykoticK9> jillian, the camera is different!  i was thinking webcam.  which do you want to address?
[21:24] <dajhorn> !medibuntu | dyier
[21:24] <larsig> Hello, i have a sound issue with my HDA Intel (Conexant chipset) sound card. I only get sound when the headset is in
[21:24] <fccf> jillian: are you using the cybershot over firewire?
[21:24] <jillian> well..i have a feeling if i fix one the other will work
[21:24] <Slart> guntbert: I had a google-fu zen moment.. found an old post on a debian forum.. I think it cuts down on what packages it prints out.. such as dependencies and such
[21:24] <BradP> what does aptoncd do?
[21:24] <jillian> firewire?
[21:24] <blizzkid> BradP: you could also "dpkg --get-selections > installed-software" and save that file on a usb disk
[21:25] <fccf> !firewire
[21:25] <Slart> guntbert: I'm going to try modifying my bash_completion.. see if I can find something that doesn't work
[21:25] <ZykoticK9> jillian, are they both USB?
[21:25] <blizzkid> BradP: that'll give you the opportunity to reinstall exactly the same packages again
[21:25] <jillian> yes
[21:25]  * guntbert bows before Slart
[21:26] <BradP> blizzkid: does the config stuff stay as well?  It's minor, ATC, but timezone? network connections? wireless config?
[21:26] <aureus> sa va
[21:26] <blizzkid> BradP: nopes, only the list of installed packages
[21:26] <BradP> alas...
[21:26] <blizzkid> BradP: you can ofcourse copy the contents of ~/ to a usb stick as well
[21:26] <recursion> I'm getting this error: Xlib:  extension "Generic Event Extension" missing on display ":1.0". When using VNC on Jaunty... Any ideas?
[21:26] <jillian> ZykoticK9 - both work fine on xp
[21:26] <ZykoticK9> jillian, in the link try the dmesg | tail in a terminal just after plugging the sony into the system
[21:27] <ZykoticK9> jillian, sorry http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=652849
[21:27] <blizzkid> BradP: that'll give you a backup of user-dependant settings like wireless keys/desktop wallpaper/...
[21:27] <jillian> ok...be back soon
[21:27] <BradP> blizzkid: this is what I was hoping for.  xlnt
[21:29] <blizzkid> BradP: to use the "installed-software" you create with dpkg --get-selections to reinstall the packages, use "dpkg --set-selections < installed-software && dselect"
[21:29] <Flare183> What is the user and group should I use for running apache2?

[21:31] <fccf> blizzkid: no, I was born a geek
[21:31] <blizzkid> fccf: even then there was a time you used Ubuntu/whatever-OS for the first time ;)
[21:31] <recursion> traemccombs: um... Don't know about that one. Tried reinstalling it?
[21:32] <traemccombs> recursion: k
[21:32] <BradP> dpkg --get-selections > installed-software, ok
[21:32] <fccf> blizzkid: Yet, I cannot remember a day before the commandline... kinda always been there
[21:32] <blizzkid> BradP: ok, now "cp installed-software /path/to/usb-stick"
[21:32] <ZykoticK9> BradP, the file called "installed-software" can now be saved an moved to a new computer.
[21:32] <ufd> i used to use bsd unix in 1990 but since then forgot many of the stuff like chmod
[21:33] <ufd> so i ask around here

[21:33] <blizzkid> fccf: I know that feeling :) My first experience was programming in basic on the C64 :)
[21:33] <LuK> Люди....

[21:34] <fccf> !bu
[21:34] <fccf> !bg
[21:34] <ZykoticK9> BradP, you might also what to look into copying the files from /var/apt/cache/archive when you're migrating systems - saves on a lot of downloading.
[21:34] <recursion> I'm getting this error: Xlib:  extension "Generic Event Extension" missing on display ":1.0". When using VNC on Jaunty... Any ideas?
[21:34] <blizzkid> ufd: the vic20 was just before my time, but I know my father had one :)
[21:34] <BradP> hmm...usb object is "new volume"?
[21:34] <BradP> it's a brick drive
[21:35] <blizzkid> BradP: that's perfectly possible
[21:35] <cambazz> hello. I just successfully and remotely upgraded my server from 8.10 to 9.04. everything run smooth, but it seems the new config is not honoring the eth0:1 statement in /etc/networks/interfaces
[21:35] <ufd> sort of zx80 era
[21:35] <blizzkid> BradP: so it'll probably be /media/new\ volume
[21:35] <LuK> May be I will speack in English... without stupid registration)
[21:36] <ufd> the first time i tried linux it wouldnt work on a 2x cdrom, it could only work on a single speen

[21:36] <mIRCMan> i just installed ubuntu 9, and i can't get it to boot, it appears to have sent grub to the wrong place. do i haveto completely re-install again? can i just re-install grub?
[21:36] <LuK> I can't to speack there...
[21:37] <LuK> It tall me abou registration)))
[21:37] <ufd> :)
[21:37] <blizzkid> mIRCMan: you can reinstall grub, but it's not really that easy
[21:37] <ufd> yeah then i found os/2 2.11
[21:37] <mIRCMan> i didnt see a place to change where grub gets installed tho on the install cd
[21:37] <fccf> LuK: hold on ... I will see if I can clear that up for you
[21:37] <ufd> which was kinda cool reliable but complex
[21:37] <blizzkid> mIRCMan: you installed using the live cd or the alternate?
[21:37] <Gabrielar> hi guys. im trying to reinstall ubuntu 9.04 and im always getting errno 5
[21:38] <Noble> Problems with wireless. lshw @ http://pastebin.com/m2452e0bf
[21:38] <mIRCMan> I've got two 250's raided with the motherboards built in raid controller, and grub got installedo on one of those two drives before the main ide channel drives
[21:38] <ufd> yeah 9.04 wont see wifi
[21:38] <ufd> its ok on a laptop with ethernet cable
[21:38] <mIRCMan> blizzkid, i did the alternate, i got an iso of ubuntu
[21:38] <LuK> Emm... Yes, I am noob). I have a little problem with firefox... A would to upgrade it by my hands and it's was bad idea...
[21:38] <blizzkid> mIRCMan: grub doesn't like some raid setups...
[21:38] <LuK> So i haven't firefox yet...
[21:39] <LuK> I downloaded 3.5 version from mozilla
[21:39] <blizzkid> mIRCMan: You can either install GRUB2 or install grub on a non-raided drive
[21:39] <Gabrielar> im really kinda lost with this one
[21:39] <LuK> and replace files in main firefox folder...
[21:39] <mIRCMan> it didnt detect my raid, but installed on a single drive of my raid set, which i hope it didnt do any damage
[21:40] <BradP> ZykoticK9: /var/cache/apt/archive
[21:40] <mIRCMan> well im guessing because neither of my two ide drives on ide0, my master nor slave was bootable
[21:40] <BradP> now I see what you're talkinga bout
[21:40] <bash> anyone on here good with math??
[21:40] <Blz> bash:  it depends on the math involved...
[21:40] <bash> linear systems
[21:40] <Blz> lolno
[21:40] <blizzkid> mIRCMan: I'd have to see the installation tbh
[21:40] <fccf> bash: yes... perhaps I have the right toys
[21:40] <Halitech> Gabrielar, is it a grub error 5 or another error 5?
[21:41] <BradP> thanks all. cya

[21:41] <Gabrielar> Halitech: its on the installation graphical interface, when starts copying files. i reformatted the parititios, burned a new image, nothing
[21:41] <cambazz> hello. I can not get a second ip number for my ethernet card. this used to work for 8.10, and now in 9.04 it will not
[21:41] <mtnd3w> blizzkid: would that remove gnome-panel, applets, ubuntu-desktop also?
[21:42] <blizzkid> Gabrielar: you checked the cd's integrity?
[21:42] <Gabrielar> blizzkid: yes
[21:42] <blizzkid> mtnd3w: I wouldn't think so, lemme check
[21:42] <Blz> mtnd3w:  there are associated packages that can be removed as well... evolution-exchange, evolution-plugins, evolution-webcal
[21:42] <Halitech> Gabrielar, there is some info here about error 5 http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=809515
[21:42] <Blz> there may be more, but I remember those...
[21:43] <mIRCMan> i've got 1 ide controller on my motherboard, which contains my master n slave hdds i use for booting, i have a sata raid controller also with two raided 250's for a 500gb drive.. how it initialized, everything was sda, sdb sdc sdd, and it was totally backwards to what bios reads lol, i would assume ide hdd's would be 1st, but my 250' raids were 1st, so the installation went to /sdd
[21:43] <jillian> ZykoticK9 - forum wasn't any help..Can we deal with the webcam first
[21:43] <mIRCMan> which used to be xp
[21:43] <Gabrielar> i believe is something with the HD, coz my previous CD which i sucessfuly used the first time got this error, now the new image, but i even deleted partitions and made new ones
[21:43] <mIRCMan> and so somehow hd(0,0) or whatever grub installs to happens to be a raid controller drive
[21:43] <ipburbank> hey, I just downloaded ubuntu ultimate and I changed the defualt cursor but there are some still I want to change. how do I change the waiting cursor, and the click and drag cursor?

[21:48] <blizzkid> *community*
[21:48] <jono> blizzkid, good, all done now :)
[21:48] <frostburn> Gabrielar, another thing to check is the ide/sata cables, make sure they aren't running parallel to power cords or aren't twisted that much
[21:48] <Blz> Does anybody know if the VNC service has to be explicitly started before you can connect to it?  I'm trying to connect to a mythtv box to grab some logs with the graphical log grabber...
[21:48] <jillian> been trying to get my webcam working on ubuntu for months now!
[21:48] <blizzkid> good to hear jono :) When will it be released?
[21:48] <jillian> nobody knows how?

[21:49] <jillian> on this..yes
[21:50] <jillian> which forums?
[21:50] <jono> blizzkid, will do :)
[21:50] <frostburn> Gabrielar, check memory too, see if any errors pop up running memtest, hardware errors are some of the hardest to diagnose
[21:50] <glitsj16> tyranos: maybe, i use gdevilspie, a gui for rule-creation
[21:51] <blizzkid> hehe, jono, I'll remind you about that promise on facebook ;-)
[21:51] <fccf> bash: did you get your answer?
[21:51] <glitsj16> tyranos: http://code.google.com/p/gdevilspie/
[21:51] <Gabrielar> frostburn: aww, been working like a charm for years, and besides, been working great until the reinstalation atempt! i seriously doubt its a memory related issue, but ill check anyway. but first, i wanna do a usb install
[21:51] <tyranos> glitsj16, me too
[21:51] <jono> blizzkid, hehe
[21:51] <tyranos> glitsj16, thx but somehow it works but only when i start devilspie after terminator
[21:52] <piv> how do i go about installing iceweasel in jaunty
[21:52] <piv> ?
[21:52] <jon5000> hello.  scroll function on my dell (alps) touchpad stopped working.  I am using intrepid and all the tick marks in gsynaptics are fine.  also, xorg.conf for that entry shows no difference from a prior backup version from when i knew that the scroll worked fine.  Anyone have ideas?
[21:52] <tyranos> glitsj16, and i dont know how to identify the terminator window
[21:52] <tty17> piv: aptitude install iceweasel?
[21:53] <ubuntu> load bookdcc09.py
[21:53] <jillian> webcam??
[21:53] <piv> tty17, i am getting that there is no install candidate,
[21:53] <jillian> anyone?
[21:53] <glitsj16> tyranos: did you add devilspie to start after login in your session? i take it grabbing the terminator window isn't working?
[21:53] <piv> tty17, that was with apt-get, aptitude different?
[21:53] <tty17> piv: oh hmm
[21:53] <tty17> no no difference
[21:54] <piv> grr, fresh install here
[21:54] <frostburn> jillian, is it recognized as a usb device?  lsusb
[21:54] <soulwarp> aptitude is a gui version of apt
[21:54] <jillian> do i put lsusb in terminal to check?
[21:54] <Gabrielar> frostburn: damn, im gettint a readonly error on my keydrive, how do i set it to rw on a Live session, do you know
[21:54] <frostburn> jillian, yes
[21:55] <tyranos> glitsj16, when i try it with gnome-terminal it works but doesnt when i use terminator, i dnt know y , but if i start another sesson of devilspie it works so i m still investigating it
[21:55] <jillian> I see a Pixart imaging..is that it?
[21:55] <frostburn> Gabrielar, it's probably a file permission issue, if you need to reformat it, there should be tools available to do that under system > admin > usb startdisk
[21:55] <bgy> hi
[21:55] <frostburn> jillian, sounds like it, can you paste the full line?

[21:56] <xavier1089> Hello, i'm new to ubuntu and linux. i'm having trouble viewing videos online, i think a java update might solve the problem. but i don't know how to install .bin files on my laptop. could anyone offer some assistance or some suggestions. Please and Thanks.
[21:56] <unop> soulwarp, aptitude isn't a gui tho
[21:56] <cambazz> hello. my second ip address will not start at boottime but if I say /etc/init.d/networking restart, it will work
[21:56] <cambazz> I am going nuts
[21:57] <glitsj16> tyranos: okay, you could try the xprop commands as fall-back until you have that fixed... http://wiki.compiz-fusion.org/WindowMatching has some detailed commands to get to the info you need to make a devlspie rule
[21:57] <jillian> frostburn...you got that?
[21:58] <dajhorn> !restricted | xavier1089
[21:58] <frostburn> jillian, yep, it looks like there's an issue with the kernel for that webcam https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kernel-team/2009-April/005484.html  looking to see if there's a workaround
[21:58] <dajhorn> xavier1089: You probably want the restricted-extras package.
[21:58] <jillian> ok
[21:58] <tyranos> glitsj16, now it works , window_role identifys the window fine so now i just have to find a way to only have one terminator in the background and not all . any ideas  and thx for the help
[21:58] <dajhorn> xavier1089: To get the Sun Java packages and the closed flash player.
[21:59] <glitsj16> tyranos: you're welcome, i'm afraid i've never used terminator to help on that one
[21:59] <Arquis_Br> hi guys. I know this is a longshot, but my Jaunty Notifier (notify-osd) changed its skin. Anyone got a clue how to get it to the 9.04 default?
[22:00] <blizzkid> tyranos: iirc the trick is to set a title to terminator and use that one
[22:00] <blizzkid> tyranos: but a google search for "terminator background compiz" should help you
[22:01] <tyranos> thx blizzkid
[22:01] <blizzkid> np
[22:01] <ruler> can i install nero on ubuntu
[22:01] <frostburn> jillian, i found people compiling their own kernel modules, if you want to get your hands dirty check out this article http://karuppuswamy.com/wordpress/2009/03/01/howto-gear-head-web-cam-093a2620-in-linux/
[22:02] <cambazz> hello. I am on a remote server, so how can I log the console output to have a loot at it later
[22:02] <jillian> ok...i'm not very techy! Do you think I can handle this on my own?
[22:02] <blizzkid> ruler: not without wine, and not even sure that will work (although I do believe there is/was a linux version of nero)
[22:02] <blizzkid> cambazz: you could do eg ls > fil
[22:03] <blizzkid> cambazz: I mean > file
[22:03] <Zxcvb> blizzkid: I did get alcohol 120 to work in wine, though you have to use it's safe mode (aspi mode)
[22:03] <blizzkid> that'll put the output in "file"
[22:03] <yvonne> hey all.
[22:03] <frostburn> jillian, perhaps.  You won't know until you try, make a backup of your important files and learn about compiling and kernel modules, have to start somewhere
[22:03] <blizzkid> Zxcvb: why would you want alcohol in ubuntu?
[22:03] <jillian> a pop up came up as well requesting a username and password
[22:03] <ruler> blizzkid: i cant understand what are you telling i am new to ubuntu
[22:03] <yvonne> i want to know how to get into the root console?
[22:03] <Zxcvb> blizzkid: it can make disc images that include subchannel data, among other things
[22:04] <blizzkid> ruler?
[22:04] <polpak> Anyone know if there's any configuration changes needed to connect to a remote server (not linux) from an ubuntu workstation using XDMCP ?
[22:04] <mezquitale> !nvidia
[22:04] <polpak> I'm just getting a black screen when I connect
[22:04] <blizzkid> Zxcvb: dd can make disk images :)
[22:04] <Zxcvb> blizzkid: true, but it won't read cdrom subchannel data
[22:04] <polpak> Or, barring that, just an explaination of the protocol/connection proceedure would be good
[22:04] <jillian> nevermind...i just closed it out
[22:04] <jillian> i'll check it out
[22:05] <yvonne> how do i go about getting into the root console?
[22:05] <frostburn> yvonne, sudo su - , or sudo -i, know that running as root is dangerous =]
[22:05] <Arquis_Br> Ruler, what do you need Nero for exactly? You could use Brasero.
[22:06] <th0r> polpak: you have to enable xdmcp in the server. Xdmcp isn't the best choice for remote access...you might want to look at X-forwarding over ssh
[22:06] <indy21_> hi
[22:06] <skyl> is there a way to have a router give some machines a static IP and some machines dhcp?
[22:06] <yvonne> oh really frost? thnks for the warning...
[22:06] <indy21_> i hav some problem apt-get update
[22:06] <dajhorn> polpak: If you really want to do that, then read the man page for gdm.conf,  enable the XDMCP chooser, and set AllowAdd=true
[22:07] <fccf> skyl: set the machines that you want static manually - the rest will dhcp
[22:07] <gnutun> hey all; im having some trouble making a .deb file that includes python bindings after the upgrade to python 2.6; does anyone know the difference between site-packages and dist-packages?
[22:07] <indy21_> i have the same error at the end
[22:07] <znh_> skyl, simple ordinary routers usually don't have the so called reserved ips option
[22:08] <polpak> dajhorn, th0r: It's connecting to a OpenVMS system, and I don't administrate it, so I can't switch to X-forwarding over ssh =(
[22:08] <polpak> dajhorn: What does AllowAdd=true do?
[22:09] <nascentmind> hi. when ubuntu shutsdown it shows deconfiguring network interfaces [Fail]. how can i fix it?
[22:09] <dajhorn> polpak: It lets your users enter a host name for the remote XDMCP host.
[22:09] <imatech1> skyl: just assign an ip within the same subnet as the static ip
[22:09] <dajhorn> polpak: Or you can create an ini [section] for pre-defined hosts.
[22:10] <polpak> dajhorn: oh. Well XDMCP chooser is coming up fine, and the host is listed there already.. But when attempting to connect it does not give me the hosts login prompt. Just shows me a blank x server with a cursor and sits there.
[22:10] <nascentmind> anybody?
[22:10] <imatech1> skyl: what kind of router?
[22:10] <sjokkis> hay. i have ubuntu installed and i tried reinstalling it from a CD earlier. my system is encrypted, and i have an LVM volume no top of the encrypted harddrive. the LVM volume is divided into home and root partitions. how would i reinstall ubuntu without touching the home partition? i wasn't able to do this using the graphical installer
[22:10] <dajhorn> polpak: What is the remote host running?  Many systems will require appropriate hosts.allow or hosts.deny entries.
[22:11] <ufd> has anyone used skype with 9.04
[22:11] <polpak> dajhorn: OpenVMS. And it's not a security setting afaict, because these workstations worked fine using a very old version of fedora to connect
[22:11] <th0r> ufd: I have it running, but it doesn't recognize the front mic jack
[22:11] <ufd> i get a error message during install........./tmp/skype-debian_<IP_ADDRESS>-1_i386-1.deb could not be opened, because the associated helper application does not exist. Change the association in your preferences.
[22:12] <th0r> ufd: it does work with the built in mic though
[22:12] <ufd> oh i see
[22:12] <skyl> if I switch this machine from dhcp to <IP_ADDRESS> and restart networking I get no connection but if I turn dhcp off in the router and set the static ip in /etc/network/interfaces then it works but the dhcp to other computers is shifty imatech1  http://www.belkin.com/support/kb/kb.asp?a=2824
[22:12] <dajhorn> polpak: Check the X11 versions.  You may need to do things like disable extensions on the Linux side to connect to an old system.
[22:12] <ufd> thor:thanks but what commands do u need to invoke for skype
[22:12] <polpak> dajhorn: unless something needs to be configured on the workstation to allow the xdm on the OpenVMS machine to talk to the ubuntu machine.
[22:13] <skyl> at least that is my preliminary diagnosis .. I had the cheaper version of this router die after a few years and got a bigger better one donated
[22:13] <dajhorn> polpak: You should also confirm that a direct DISPLAY= X11 session works properly.
[22:13] <th0r> ufd: 'skype'
[22:13] <micky_> herro
[22:13] <dimedo> hi, i would like to modify the Remote Desktop Viewer Applet from the gnome toolbar. where is the executable, where can i see the sourcecode, what language is it written in?
[22:14] <ufd> thor: 'skype' in terminal window ?
[22:14] <th0r> ufd: the synaptic install should have put an item in the menu
[22:14] <dajhorn> polpak: For example,  run `xhost +`,  telnet into the OpenVMS server,  set DISPLAY=mylinuxcomputer:0.0, and run xterm or some other simple program.
[22:14] <micky_> Hello, I am new to ubuntu, vista recently failed and I had enough. I have heard of using xfire through pidgin, and was wondering if anybody had any help on this subject.
[22:14] <th0r> ufd: but typing that in a terminal should work
[22:15] <polpak> dajhorn: ok, yeah
[22:15] <dajhorn> polpak: If a direct X11 connection doesn't work, then XDMCP won't work.
[22:15] <polpak> dajhorn: yep
[22:15] <ufd> thor:typing skype in window term doesnt seem to work, sorry my cli is a bit mangled
[22:15] <yvonne> is there anyway to use one laptop that has internet, to connect another one to the internet?
[22:16] <mdm> !ics
[22:16] <yvonne> thnk u
[22:16] <th0r> ufd: did you install the package via synaptic?

[22:17] <ipsemet> hey all i'm using vmware server 2.0 on Ubuntu Server 8.04.2 and need to add users how would I go about doing so
[22:17] <ufd> thor: nope :( i dont know how to
[22:18] <th0r> ufd: did you install the .deb package from the skype download page?
[22:18] <ufd> i tried but i got this message "/tmp/skype-debian_<IP_ADDRESS>-1_i386-1.deb could not be opened, because the associated helper application does not exist. Change the association in your preferences.
[22:18] <mezquitale> anyone knows how to configure nvidia-glx driver???  My 8.10 box only allows me to configure nvidia-glx-new using the "hardware Drivers" utility
[22:18] <dingleberry> my 82865G graphics are really slow and choppy in ubuntu , but it is fine in windows
[22:18] <dajhorn> ipsemet: VMware Server should be using PAM.  Just create a local user.
[22:19] <Wicked> hello all. im having issue while burning dvds. i should be able to burn at around 10x for dvds but its only burning at 0.5x.....same drive and same blank media burn at full speed in widows.
[22:19] <th0r> ufd: are you running ubuntu? If so, which one? (8.04, 8.10, etc?)
[22:19] <ipsemet> dajhorn: how do i get that user that i added to show up in "manage roles" in the interface
[22:19] <dajhorn> ipsemet: Scratch that...  I was thinking about VMware Server 1.0...  VMware Server 2.0 is an abomination.
[22:20] <ufd> thor:9.04
[22:20] <th0r> ufd: what does it say when you type 'which dpkg' in a terminal?
[22:20] <Wicked> !burning
[22:20] <ipsemet> dajhorn: yeah i knew how to do it in 1.0 but i can't figure it out in 2.0 and i really need this to work b/c i'm too far to turn back
[22:21] <ufd> thor: it says on the site its only got a release up to for 8.04 on the skype site
[22:21] <dajhorn> dajhorn: Sorry, we stopped using VMware Server, so I can't answer the question.
[22:21] <th0r> ufd: that should be ok....use the 8.04 package
[22:22] <mezquitale> anyone knows how to manually configure xorg.conf to use "nvidia-glx" driver???
[22:22] <th0r> ufd: but if I remember right you can get it via synaptic if you enable all the repos
[22:22] <th0r> !skype
[22:22] <ufd> thor:/usr/bin/dpkg
[22:22] <bgy> How could i do the acquisition of my mini-dv on Ubuntu ?
[22:22] <th0r> ufd: check the links ubottu just sent
[22:23] <fccf> bgy: you will need to use dvgrab
[22:24] <ufd> thor: thanks, i tried it but it says problem with vsound
[22:24] <ufd> :(
[22:24] <dingleberry> my 82865G graphics are really slow and choppy in ubuntu , but it is fine in windows
[22:25] <Slart> !intel | dingleberry
[22:25] <dingleberry> Slart, i tried that , and it made it unusble when i restarted x
[22:26] <Slart> dingleberry: then I think you need to explain what you did and what errors you got etc when you tried
[22:26] <Slart> dingleberry: otherwise people are just going to continue throwing that !intel factoid at you
[22:26] <imatech1> skyl: are you pointing dns to the router?  the ip of the default gateway should match your dns address
[22:27] <dingleberry> Slart i did what it said on the forum , and when i restarted x it was so slow it was unusable
[22:27] <mezquitale> I keep getting a message "input not supported" when I run a 3D game, anyone have a clue on why it's doing that?
[22:27] <Arquis_Br> You can get Skype and a lot more easily using UBUNTU TWEAK
[22:28] <Arquis_Br> I think it's on getdeb.net
[22:28] <Slart> dingleberry: I don't have an intel card so I have no idea what it says on the forum
[22:28] <dingleberry> o i figured you did the !intel because you have read it
[22:29] <vera> hi. Just upgraded from 8.04 to 9.04. half of my application are nowhere in the windowmaker menu (kmail, konqueror). What's going on here?
[22:29] <Slart> dingleberry: nope.. I just saw you had an intel chip.. there are lots of people having problems with them
[22:29] <dingleberry> that sooks
[22:31] <Thib_> I wiped my 8.04 system and installed a 9.04 system afresh. Now it appears that when I let go of alt-tab to bring a window/dialog to the front, or when a new window/dialog pops up, the mouse cursor automatically moves to the center of that window/dialog. Is that a new default? How can I turn it off? Hint: Nvidia binary driver with full desktop effects.
[22:31] <skyl> http://dpaste.com/55754/ imatech1 just changing from the top to what is commented on the bottom; yes, everything is making it to the router fine
[22:32] <imatech1> you there skyl?
[22:32] <Slart> Thib_: I think that's a feature of compiz.. have you checked in ccsm?
[22:32] <natschil> Thib_: strange, doesn't happen for me...
[22:32] <skyl> yes imatech1
[22:32] <imatech1> he default gateway address for belkin is <IP_ADDRESS> set that up for the dns ip
[22:32] <Thib_> Slart: forgive me, I don't know what ccsm means.
[22:32] <ipsemet> mezquitale: change the line beginning with "driver" for nvidia
[22:32] <natschil> Thib_: what windows switcher are you using? (you need to probably install compizconfig-settings-manager)
[22:33] <natschil> ()
[22:33] <natschil> Thib_: aka ccsm
[22:33] <Slart> Thib_: ah.. no worries.. it's the compiz config settings manager.. a configuration front for compiz

[22:33] <cambazz> how can I do this
[22:33] <marcel_> qrwa mozecie po polsu pisac ha

[22:34] <Thib_> natschil: I don't know -- so, I guess, whatever the default windows switcher is. It is one that overlays a 2D mosaic of windows.

[22:35] <Bram_P> hello, what is a good program to create a good firewall with, without linux security knowledge?
[22:35] <vkumar> Bram_P: tried firestarter?
[22:36] <cambazz> mwres: for the rc.local, do I delete the exit 0 statement? i need to call "ifup eth0:1"
[22:36] <natschil> Thib: open ccsm, and filter "switcher" then, under window management tell me what box is checked
[22:36] <mezquitale> ipsemet using "nvidia" makes my distro use nvidia-glx-new, i want to use the older drivers "nvidia-glx"
[22:36] <Bram_P> vkumar: well, I gave it a little look, but it doesn't really seem to give me much controll of what it does, only if the connection can be shared
[22:36] <mezquitale> Bram_P, try windows :)
[22:36] <natschil> !nvidia | mezquitale
[22:37] <natschil> mezquitale: Bram_P: no, that's for playing solitaire :)
[22:37] <mezquitale> natschil, I already went there and tried everything, my distro will only let me install the new nvidia drivers
[22:37] <natschil> Bram_P: have you looked at firestarter?
[22:37] <natschil> mezquitale: what's your distro ?
[22:38]  * vkumar is clueless
[22:38] <Bram_P> natschil: yes, but it does only give me the decision to share it, not more than that
[22:38] <Barridus> the "USB Startup Creator" is still bugged?
[22:38] <mezquitale> natschil, I can install the old drivers using "Add/Remove" but how do you manually configure the drivers to be used?  The "hardware drivers" will only let you use the new nvidia drivers, it removes the older drivers and installs the newer drivers, Im using 8.04
[22:39] <cambazz> vkumar: hey are you the vkumar from oracle!
[22:39] <Arquis_Br> Barridus: i don't know, but there's also UNETBOOTIN. It's nice and simple
[22:39] <natschil> Bram_P: sorry, I haven't really used firestarter a lot, so I'm not sure what you mean
[22:39] <infomomo> Hey guys, does anyone of you know which of the two desktops is better suited for "2Ghz - 1GB RAM PC's" : Debian 5 or Ubuntu 9.04?
[22:39] <natschil> mezquitale: are you using ubuntu, or some other distro?
[22:40] <mezquitale> can install the old drivers using "Add/Remove" but how do you manually configure the drivers to be used?  The "hardware drivers" UTILITY will only let you use the new nvidia drivers, it removes the older drivers and installs the newer drivers, Im using 8.04
[22:40] <hatter243> The volume up/down keys on my keyboard don't actually work. A gnome popup appears and has a volume slider that moves but it doesn't actually change the Master volume slider. Ideas?
[22:40] <Bram_P> natschil: well, I mean that it is only really a standard firewall in which I can't really decide how anything happens, I want a bit more controll
[22:40] <natschil> mezquitale: have you tried uninstalling the new drivers
[22:40] <mezquitale> I am using ubuntustudio which is about the same, only difference is ubuntustudio uses rt kernel
[22:40] <Amorstus> Hey, I tried to do an md5sum on an iso I just downloaded but the terminal is just sitting there and not doing anything
[22:40] <Amorstus> Ideas?
[22:40] <Guest27047> Hi everyone... No stranger to Ubuntu or Linux but I'm running into some trouble with the Ubuntu Supplied Third-Party Device Drivers when recompiling the kernel under 9.04  (<IP_ADDRESS>-generic) - Anyone here savvy with the Ubuntu modified portion of the kernal that can help?
[22:40] <natschil> Bram_P: as far as I know you can do nearly anything with firestarter...maybe there
[22:41] <Slart> !md5
[22:41] <natschil> Bram_P: 's another "advanced" tab or something
[22:41] <Slart> Amorstus: check that link... try again.. you probably made a typo or something
[22:41] <mezquitale> natschil, i uninstalled all nvidia drivers, fixed my xorg.conf and then reinstalled the older drivers however when I attempt to activate them using the "Hardware Drivers" utility--it wont allow me to use the older drivers, I can only use the newer drivers
[22:42] <Bram_P> natschil: I'll check it a second time then :) Thanks, maybe something like a tutorial for it on internet will also help me
[22:42] <natschil> mezquitale: I'd suggest not to use the Hardware Drivers utility, but to find another way to install them....
[22:42] <Halitech> infomomo, depends on your personal preferences
[22:43] <Arquis_Br> The new Jaunty notifier (notify-osd) changed its skin somehow. Anyone got a clue how to get it to the 9.04 default? Tried reinstalling. No good.
[22:43] <natschil> Bram_P: when I used firestarter, I found it too complex, actually :) haven't used it for a while though
[22:43] <mezquitale> natschil,  i think that's what I was trying to get to but thanks either way
[22:43] <natschil> mezquitale: which version of ubuntu are you using?
[22:44] <infomomo> Halitech: ubuntu 9.04 was lagging a bit on my box
[22:44] <mezquitale> ubuntustudio 8.04
[22:44] <Amorstus> Slart: Nvm, I have fixed it
[22:44] <Slart> Amorstus: nice... so it works now?
[22:44] <Halitech> infomomo, then go for Debian
[22:44] <natschil> mezquitale: what do you need the old drivers for?
[22:44] <Amorstus> Slart: It was just lagging really hard for some reason. Thanks anyway! :)
[22:44] <Amorstus> Slart: Yes
[22:44] <mezquitale> lsb_release -a  Descriptipn: Ubuntu 8.04.2  Release: 8.04  Codename: hardy
[22:44] <Slart> Amorstus: it takes a while to calculate the md5 sum
[22:45] <natschil> mezquitale: i suggest you google envy or envy-ng, I heard it was good for installing nvidia drivers, though I've never used it myself (I have an ATI card)
[22:45] <Arquis_Br> Infomomo: you should try Ubuntu with XFCE. It's snappy.
[22:45] <infomomo> Halitech: you are confirming tha debian is lighter on the cpu/RAM ?
[22:45] <mezquitale> natschil, when I attempt to use urbanterror(3D game) I get a message acros the monitor saying "input not supported"
[22:45] <infomomo> Arquis_Br: will i be able to watch my movies and all that good stuff >? :D
[22:45] <Thib_> hmm
[22:45] <natschil> mezquitale: and it worked with the old drivers?
[22:46] <Arquis_Br> Infomomo: Yeah. Use Synaptic and install XFCE Desktop. On Login you choose it. If you don't like it you just revert to Gnome or KDE.
[22:46] <Thib_> I used ccsm to search for "mouse" (useless: almost every featurette has several strings with the word "mouse", because they almost all have mouse buttons or gestures), "cursor", "pointer", "center" and "centered" but I didn't find anything conclusive yet
[22:47] <Arquis_Br> The same Ubuntu, but lighter.
[22:47] <mezquitale> natschil, it used to work because I was using 8.10 however that distro does not have the real time kernel and a lot of my appz didnt work so I erased my HD and installed a fresh copy of 8.04 and now it wont work, it used to be working though
[22:47] <infomomo> Arquis_Br: will note it down
[22:47] <cratel> when I type emails in thunderbird, it can't keep up with my typing. Not sure if this is a mozilla thunderbird problem or the underlying OS (ubuntu). Thoughts?
[22:47] <Slart> Thib_: mm.. I haven't found anything either.. I'm beginning to doubt myself here.. perhaps my memory is faulty
[22:47] <jon5001> hello.  scroll function on my dell (alps) touchpad stopped working.  I am using intrepid and all the tick marks in gsynaptics are fine.  also, xorg.conf for that entry shows no difference from a prior backup version from when i knew that the scroll worked fine.  Anyone have ideas?
[22:47] <infomomo> Arquis_Br: are you using it right now >?
[22:47] <natschil> mezquitale: I would expect 8.10 to use the newer drivers though....maybe the problem isn't related to your nvidia card, as it isn't really an "input" decice
[22:48] <mezquitale> if I could only configure "nvidia-glx" in my distro instead of "nvidia-glx-new" that would make my day but it seems no one logged in knows how to do that
[22:48] <Thib_> it stands to reason it would be one of those effects, still. I think I should disable desktop effects and see if this auto-center behavior goes away or not.
[22:48] <Thib_> confirmed.
[22:48] <york666> How do I enable autolock?
[22:49] <Arquis_Br> Infomomo: I tried it. You can go to the XUBUNTU site to take a look, I guess. XUBUNTU is Ubuntu with XFCE.
[22:49] <Thib_> if I disable desktop effects, the mouse cursor does not automatically glide to the center of the window I end up selecting with alt-tab.
[22:49] <natschil> mezquitale: http://www.linuxforums.org/multimedia/installing_nvidia_3d_drivers.html , hope this helps
[22:49] <Thib_> so, I need to dig deeper into these effects settings -- it must be somewhere in there
[22:49] <jeeves> how do I change the amount of time between updates on the no-ip client?
[22:49] <Arquis_Br> Infomomo: I am gnome person though
[22:49] <infomomo> Arquis_Br: oh yeah :D ? it is i totaly forgot :D
[22:49] <Barridus> Arquis_Br, yeah i know about (and use) unetbootin, just curious if the "official" tool is buggy or i did something wrong.  it can do some things unetbootin can't (such as a persistent area for docs and installed apps)
[22:49] <infomomo> guess i will install xubuntu
[22:50] <Zxcvb> has anyone managed to use both nvidia's 3d drivers as well as the 3d stuff from intel?
[22:50] <Arquis_Br> Barridus: mine works fine. :)
[22:50] <sirMajid> hi, I need to store all the data returned by a bash function in a file. how can I do that?
[22:50] <york666> How do I enable autolock???
[22:50] <Thib_> aha, it also appears that there is no auto-centering behavior with the intermediate level of desktop effects in the Appearance preferences.
[22:50] <Halitech> infomomo, I can only confirm that on my system that Debian with XFCE runs alot faster then Xubuntu did
[22:50] <Barridus> infomomo, or you could have both, it's easy to log into one or the other (and your docs and so forth will be usable in both)
[22:50] <Thib_> so, it's something that's in the "full" set of desktop effects, I'm going to guess.
[22:51] <natschil> sirMajid: bashfunction > filename overwrites the contents of the file, bashfunction >> filename appens the results of the function...replace bashfunction and filename.
[22:51] <infomomo> Halitech: i will take both your advices: Debian with XFCE. Halitech: is installing XFCE on debian straight forward?
[22:51] <Barridus> Arquis_Br, hmm, mine boots to some strange console/text login that i can't log in to.  also happened a while back when there was talk of a bug in casper (or whatever the library is called that creates bootable linux in ubuntu)
[22:52] <york666> How do I enable autolock?
[22:52] <Halitech> infomomo, I used the info here to do my install http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?t=26566
[22:52] <rob2> what is the protocol for asking questions?
[22:52] <natschil> !ask |rob2
[22:53] <sjokkis> hay. i have ubuntu installed and i tried reinstalling it from a CD earlier. my system is encrypted, and i have an LVM volume no top of the encrypted harddrive. the LVM volume is divided into home and root partitions. how would i reinstall ubuntu without touching the home partition? i wasn't able to do this using the graphical installer
[22:53] <gum76> thinking about running Ubuntu 9.4 on a weak machine with only 64 mb of ram and a 6oo mhz processor, wondering if there's any way to take Ubuntu desktop 9.04 and make it boot to XFCE?
[22:53] <rob2> after installing ubuntu (clean install) it fails to update giving hash sum errors - I have done this with ubuntu 8.10, 9.04 and a live cd of 9.10 - same result each time
[22:54] <natschil> gum76: why not just take xubuntu?
[22:54] <sirMajid> natschil: ok, I used >> untill now, but my problem is that it just stores the data returning right after running the command, and echos else of the data in the terminal
[22:54] <Thib_> oh...
[22:54] <Thib_> hmm.
[22:54] <Barridus> gum76, ubuntu with xfce is known as xubuntu, and is officially supported (and available to download)
[22:54] <gum76> cause i don't have it in my possetion
[22:54] <gum76> okay, i'll try to burn a CD
[22:54] <natschil> sirMajid: what sort of command do you mean?
[22:54] <gum76> thanks for the help
[22:54] <Thib_> it appears that now that I have mucked with the desktop effects -- shifted to no effects, then to intermediate, then to full again -- this auto-center behavior has gone away!
[22:54] <regeya> gum76, xfce might work for you; you might also give various windowmanagers a look such as openbox
[22:54] <jdu_> For anyone using New Wave or similarly colored theme, is there a way to work around openoffice's use of a black font for the menu items (File, Edit, etc.)?  All other gtk apps use a white font there.
[22:54] <gum76> how hard would it be to take Xbuntu and make it run Fluxbox?
[22:55] <Thib_> a bit frustrating while trying to unearth what was happening but ultimately that's what I wanted it to do :-)
[22:55] <sirMajid> natschil: it's hping3
[22:55] <imatech1> skyl...did that work?
[22:55] <VincentVegan> hi there
[22:55] <Barridus> you're welcome gum76.  http://www.xubuntu.org/
[22:55] <sirMajid> natschil: it's a bash function like ping
[22:55] <Thib_> anyway
[22:55] <Thib_> I guess I'll need to understand how it works only if this recurs often.
[22:55] <Slart> Thib_: hmm.. odd
[22:55] <VincentVegan> does anybody know how i can resize the fonts when printing evolution-calendars?
[22:55] <Thib_> thanks Slart, thanks natschil
[22:55] <Mike-DC> gum: I've run fluxbox on xubuntu before. Not terribly difficult...  Also, since xubuntu is geared for older systems a lot of the applications will be lighter than what you'll find in ubuntu.
[22:56] <Slart> Thib_: I can't find anything in ccsm that sounds like it would move the mouse pointer.. good that it's fixed anyways.
[22:56] <Thib_> yeah
[22:56] <jeeves> tell jeeves_moss no-ip
[22:56] <Thib_> I can totally see that this would be desired behavior for some users.
[22:56] <gum76> Mike-DC excellent that's music to my ears
[22:56] <natschil> Thib_: glad it works for you now :)
[22:56] <Thib_> I don't want that, it was very distracting to me.
[22:56] <sirMajid> natschil: it echos a line just after running and echos 3 lines after some seconds,
[22:56] <rob2> after installing ubuntu (clean install) it fails to update giving hash sum errors - I have done this with ubuntu 8.10, 9.04 and a live cd of 9.10 - same result each time. Does anyone have an idea as to how to resolve? (also tried netinst debian and it fails at configure packages)
[22:57] <Thib_> I'll try to find out more specifically where it comes from if it happens again (it's my, maybe 15th boot and it's the first time this has happened, so clearly it's not a big problem)
[22:57] <sirMajid> natschil: my problem is that >> just redirects the first line and echos the other lines in the terminal
[22:57] <Polarina> Has anyone attempted to play Puzzle Pirates in Ubuntu 9.04? The widget sizes and fonts aren't right on my installation. Any ideas? I have already attempted to remove/install fonts to match a Debian installation, in which the game behaves properly.
[22:57] <Thib_> have a good one everyone
[22:57] <Arquis_Br> Barridus: No clue :( Any particular error message?
[22:57] <_Brun0_> If i'm going to create a personal blog about ubuntu. Can I have a domain with the word "ubuntu" in it? Like BrunosUbuntuBlog.com?
[22:58] <natschil> sirMajid: hmm, seems to work fine for me, though you might be doing something differently
[22:58] <hanasaki> what package wil provide a ntp client damon that will keep my clock up to date?
[22:58] <infomomo> halitech: thnaks
[22:58] <Mike-DC> hanasaki: sudo apt-get install ntp
[22:58] <sirMajid> natschill: you did it using hping
[22:58] <sirMajid> ?
[22:59] <sirMajid> natschil:?
[22:59] <Mike-DC> hanasaki: Then edit /etc/ntp.conf and restart the daemon
[22:59] <paolo88> hi, when i run a programm in the terminal, it give me "in Get MAC Adress (internal) : There was a configuration problem (or no cable !) on your platform: No such file or directory". The program run, but i read this, because?
[22:59] <hanasaki> Mike-DC, i htought that was a server too?
[22:59] <sjokkis> Mike-DC: i suppose you mean reload the config
[22:59] <natschil> sirMajid: sudo hping3 www.google.com > test.txt seems to work
[22:59] <skyl> imatech1 yes, it looks like I was just trying to assign a static IP that had already been assigned by dhcp aka I'm slow
[22:59] <Mike-DC> hanasaki: It's both.... you can configure it to be a client, a server, or both.

[23:00] <sirMajid> natschil: it printed ALL the lines in the test.txt?
[23:00] <natschil> sirMajid: oh, I understand, the last lines aren't there, i get your problem now
[23:00] <Arquis_Br> Loafers: Transmission happened, I guess.

[23:01] <loafers> Arquis_Br, oh ok
[23:01] <sirMajid> natschil: tnx:D
[23:02] <Mike-DC> hanasaki: all you really need is a server statement and a driftfile statement in your ntp.conf - to restrict others from configuring it use "restrict -4 default kod notrap nomodify nopeer noquery" as well
[23:02] <natschil> sirMajid: wait a moment, I may have a solution...

[23:32] <g1er> billybigrigger: oh, I thought apt-get had to do with accessing/downloading the package from the internet
[23:32] <billybigrigger> michu_::: no need to repeat yourself
[23:32] <billybigrigger> g1er::: yes, its a package manager that will retrieve packages from ubuntu's software repositories
[23:32] <ARMENIAN> what does the editable menu shortcut keys option allow in appearance prefrences under the interface tab?
[23:32] <cabrey> michu_, that doesn't make sense, there is no Radeon 'IGP 330M/340M/350M'
[23:32] <billybigrigger> g1er::: but it has to be run as root, so you need to type 'sudo apt-get <package>' and then enter your passwrod

[23:33] <Arquis_Br> behappy: so what's the problem exactly? I thought you said you couldn't mount it ?...
[23:34] <behappy> Arquis_Br, just this one
[23:34] <Skater> umm i have the newest ubuntu version and it gets to one point and stops
[23:34] <cabrey> michu_, I stand corrected. that is a very _old_ gfx card
[23:34] <billybigrigger> g1er::: have you tried to connect it wired?
[23:34] <behappy> Arquis_Br, mount: /dev/sdb2 already mounted or /backup/
[23:34] <Arquis_Br> behappy: and after the gksudo nautilus it still does not mount?

[23:35] <g1er> Have no way to connect it wired (no routers, modem etc.) just this dam verizon 3g card and cellular tethering :(
[23:35] <filosofixit> I can not login after a fresh install of jaunty (black screen with mouse cursor) on a acer travelmate 430 (old) with a ati radeon mobility 7500 chip. Have tried everything bu nothing seems to work... LiveCD works fine though...
[23:35] <billybigrigger> g1er::: that's ugly
[23:36] <g1er> lol tell me about it
[23:36] <billybigrigger> g1er::: what tutorial are you trying to follow?
[23:36] <billybigrigger> g1er::: what kind of wireless card?
[23:36] <g1er> http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43
[23:36] <gum76> i have 4 distros, 3 are hashed out and all of them end with this, debian oldstable main contrib non-free i'm wondering if there's a better Repo for DSL that's right, Damn Small Linux.
[23:36] <Arquis_Br> behappy: with me was the same. Everything mounting except one hd with ext3. Not sure what you mean now. Maybe somebody else can help. Post the problem again.
[23:36] <billybigrigger> g1er::: that sucks, my 3g wireless card was supported right out of the box :P i plugged it in and worked flawlessly
[23:36] <gum76> not 4 distros, 4 repos
[23:37] <billybigrigger> g1er::: usb 3g card?
[23:37] <hatter243> The volume up/down keys on my keyboard don't actually affect. A gnome popup appears and has a volume slider that moves but it doesn't actually change the Master volume slider. Ideas?
[23:37] <g1er> yeah but I can't use on the other computer, pw protected and not mine
[23:37] <billybigrigger> hatter243::: check you have the right device selected
[23:38] <cabrey> michu_, 9.04 uses a newer X.Org server & driver version, so that might be to blame. also is this flash we're talking about?
[23:38] <billybigrigger> g1er::: k, explain your whole situation again, in detail
[23:38] <hatter243> billybigrigger, where would I check if I have the right device?
[23:38] <ARMENIAN> what does the editable menu shortcut keys option allow in appearance prefrences under the interface tab?
[23:38] <swoody> I have a quad-core CPU, is there any way I can run one program on Cores 0 and 1, and then run another program on Cores 2 and 3??
[23:38] <sjokkis> billybigrigger:::::::::::::: what's up with this?
[23:38] <jeeves> what does "update-rc.d: warning: /etc/init.d/saslauthd missing LSB style header" mean?
[23:38] <armence> Hey all, is there a GNOME email client which I can use in Gmail in such a way that I can use the client from several computers (including the webmail client) and still have emails listed consistently as read or unread accross the different clients?
[23:38] <billybigrigger> hatter243::: the volume properties
[23:39] <michu_> cabrey, yes, there was no video streaming, so I installed the newest flash player from their website
[23:39] <billybigrigger> sjokkis::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: i dunno, you tell me
[23:39] <sjokkis> billybigrigger:::::::::::: i'm not saying it's annoying or anything, but it is
[23:39] <billybigrigger> sjokkis!@#
[23:40] <billybigrigger> sjokkis!@# is this better?
[23:40] <billybigrigger> sjokkis!@# cause i can change it back to :::
[23:40] <sjokkis> minutely
[23:40] <sjokkis> i'd go for 8==D tho
[23:40] <cabrey> michu_, you should use apt-get to install flash player, but it shouldn't make a difference
[23:40] <hatter243> billybigrigger, it appears the Keyboard Shortcut settings for "Volume Up" and "Volume Down" don't actually talk to the volume-control applet
[23:40] <sjokkis> billybigrigger8==D like this
[23:41] <billybigrigger> sjokkis::: yeah, xchat won't let me do 4 characters :P only 3
[23:41] <Polarina> Has anyone attempted to play Puzzle Pirates in Ubuntu 9.04? The widget sizes and fonts aren't right on my installation. Any ideas? I have already attempted to remove/install fonts to match a Debian installation, in which the game behaves properly.
[23:41] <sjokkis> that's okay. just pretend you have a small penis
[23:41] <michu_> cabrey, should I uninstall it then and install it again? if so, how to uninstall flash?
[23:41] <g1er> laptop A online, 3g usb internet, pw protected, not mine, owners out of town/unreachable. laptop B offline, looking to ad-hoc tether using bcm4318 wifi card and android dream phone (works wonderfully in windows). Laptop B shows card in lspci, but no wlan in network connections.
[23:41] <sjokkis> or don't pretend
[23:41] <billybigrigger> sjokkis::: i tried, but 8=D just doesn't have the same effect :P
[23:41] <sjokkis> like this:
[23:41] <sjokkis> billybigrigger8=D
[23:41] <sjokkis> yeah you're right. it's not the same
[23:41] <cabrey> billybigrigger, do you use tab completion?
[23:41] <billybigrigger> 8=D~~~ is better :P
[23:41] <hatter243> !ot | sjokkis billybigrigger
[23:41] <billybigrigger> cabrey::: yes
[23:42] <sjokkis> oh good, hatter243 is ready to answer my question
[23:42] <billybigrigger> hatter243::: and you can't set you volume up down in keyboard preferences?
[23:42] <zmax> maga
[23:42] <billybigrigger> maybe he should answer his own q's if im OT
[23:43] <cabrey> michu_, there isn't a way to uninstall flash when you installed it from adobe's site (unless you d/l'd the deb)
[23:43] <sjokkis> hatter243: i tried reinstalling ubuntu on a system that has an encrypted drive, with an LVM volume on top, divided into a root and home partition. i couldn't figure out how to reinstall from a CD without touching anything except the root partition. all the options i was given by the installer involved reformating the drive. can you tell me how to resolve this?
[23:43] <hatter243> billybigrigger, It is set properly, that's why I see the gnome popup volume slider moving around. That just doesn't seem to be connected to the volume control
[23:44] <sheep96783> i'm trying to use rdesktop to view my windows pc but all i'm getting is a blank screen. i'm not sure if it's even connected; i don't think it is
[23:44] <hatter243> sjokkis, in summary: You would like to reformat one partition of a drive?
[23:44] <racquad> hi guys. anyone has any tip about replacing partimage? I run Ubuntu 64 and partimage is not present at the moment for this system
[23:44] <sjokkis> hatter243: a virtual one, yes
[23:44] <billybigrigger> cabrey::: you can, just remove the module from your firefox directory
[23:44] <sjokkis> hatter243: which is the source of my woes
[23:44] <cabrey> billybigrigger, it installs it in /usr/lib
[23:44] <sjokkis> the installer doesn't seem to recognize those
[23:44] <michu_> cabrey, yes, that's what I meant... sorry for confusion. I downloaded the deb file from their website and installed it on my machine
[23:44] <cabrey> !flash > michu_
[23:44] <billybigrigger> cabrey::: billybigrigger@cabo:~/.mozilla/plugins$ ls
[23:44] <billybigrigger> libflashplayer.so
[23:44] <hatter243> sjokkis, does the server version?
[23:45] <sjokkis> dunno
[23:45] <sudobash> Hey I am having problems modprobing ndiswrapper cause it says it needs a .conf on the end but when I add .conf on the end of the filename it says it cannot find the module
[23:45] <cabrey> michu_, ok before you follow those instructions, uninstall flash from your computer
[23:45] <cabrey> billybigrigger, {cabrey} < ~ > ~~~>  ls ~/.mozilla/plugins
[23:45] <cabrey> ls: cannot access /home/cabrey/.mozilla/plugins: No such file or directory
[23:45] <cabrey> ;)
[23:46] <sjokkis> hatter243: are you saying i should try that, or were you just curious?
[23:46] <michu_> cabrey, can you just tell me how to do it?
[23:46] <cabrey> michu_, yes, hold on
[23:46] <billybigrigger> cabrey::: hmmm...
[23:47] <hatter243> sjokkis, curious, I remember the server version having many more options in it as far as installation goes. I don't know much about LVM's though =/
[23:47] <sjokkis> =/////
[23:47] <racquad> any help?
[23:47] <sjokkis> aw, that didn't have quite the same effect as :((((
[23:47] <cabrey> michu_, run 'sudo dpkg -r adobe-flashplugin' (w/o the quotes) in a terminal
[23:47] <pedro_> ubuntu is tellin me only one installer can be running at the same time.
[23:48] <hatter243> Ha! Fixed my problem. System -> Preferences -> Sound Preferences and selecting both Master and PCM Mixer Tracks
[23:48] <pedro_> but how can i stop the other one thats running in the background
[23:48] <billybigrigger> cabrey::: that is the flash 10 plugin for 64bit linux, right from adobe's site...
[23:48] <cabrey> billybigrigger, oh you use 64 bit, not the apt-get installer
[23:48] <billybigrigger> cabrey::: so if you have installed from adobe's site, that's where the plugin goes
[23:48] <cabrey> billybigrigger, that's why :)
[23:48] <gum76> Hatter what does PCM mean?
[23:48] <billybigrigger> cabrey::: i tried both, repo version, and from the site
[23:49] <billybigrigger> cabrey::: all im saying is if he tried the plugin from adobe site, thats how to remove it
[23:49] <billybigrigger> cabrey::: then he can go ahead and try the flashplugin-nonfree from repo's
[23:49] <hatter243> gum76, according to Google: Pulse-Code Modulation
[23:49] <cabrey> billybigrigger, i have the listed files in the deb right here. it installs it under /usr/lib/adobe-flashplugin/libflashplayer.so
[23:50] <michu_> cabrey, done it
[23:50] <billybigrigger> cabrey::: yes i know
[23:50] <cabrey> michu_, ok, no errors, correct?
[23:50] <michu_> cabrey, yes
[23:50] <billybigrigger> cabrey::: all i said was "the plugin from adobe's site is located in ~/.mozilla/plugins"
[23:51] <billybigrigger> cabrey> michu_, there isn't a way to uninstall flash when you installed it from adobe's site (unless you d/l'd the deb)
[23:51] <michu_> cabrey, then I fallowed your link, but it said I've got the plugin already installed
[23:51] <cabrey> billybigrigger, oh i got what you're saying
[23:51] <cabrey> billybigrigger, you're right :)
[23:51] <RichiH> if anyone in here has a suggestion for undeleting files from an image of a vfat partition and keeping the directory structure intact (we are talking ~20k and 56 GiB files here)... shoot
[23:52] <michu_> cabrey, and the video is still jerking
[23:52] <sudobash> Hey I am having problems modprobing ndiswrapper cause it says it needs a .conf on the end but when I add .conf on the end of the filename it says it cannot find the module
[23:53] <cabrey> michu_, you installed through apt-get? well I wouldn't be surprised if it was due to the new x.org & drivers
[23:53] <Mac42DO> Hi Since the upgrade von 8.10 to 9.04, I can't spin down the hard drive with windows on it. It spins up again immediatly, after hdaprm -y /dev/sdb
[23:53] <cabrey> michu_, a lot of people are complaining about flash & video playback in jaunty
[23:53] <michu_> cabrey, apt-get install xxxxxx?
[23:53] <michu_> cabrey, it would be nice if someone could come up with a solution
[23:54] <cabrey> michu_, sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer (or flashplugin-nonfree, take your choice)
[23:55] <michu_> cabrey, it says that I've got the newest version already
[23:55] <michu_> I think I will leave it for tonight, cabrey
[23:55] <cabrey> michu_, so you did install it, ok
[23:55] <michu_> cabrey, unless you have another quick idea
[23:56] <cabrey> michu_, file a bug? then developers will help you out
[23:56] <michu_> ok thanks cabrey :)
[23:56] <basisbit_> make me a sandwich! no! sudo make me a sandwich! okey
[23:57] <piv> where can i get icecat or iceweasel, neither seem to be in the repository
[23:57] <piv> ?
[23:57] <cabrey> piv, iceweasel is firefox
[23:57] <cabrey> piv, well debian rebranded it because of copyright issues
[23:57] <Seveas> piv, we still call them firefox and co.  What shall I do?
[23:58] <piv> Seveas, cabrey , right, know what it is, but i want to use different settings so i don't have to log in and out and all for my wife to use here browser, with her bookmarks, her addons, etc..
[23:59] <ccatalan> spanish?
[23:59] <cabrey> piv, use firefox profiles
[23:59] <piv> Seveas, cabrey just thought it might be easier to have the two
[23:59] <bigboss__> hi people! could anyone tell me how to mount an iso on ubuntu?
[23:59] <erUSUL> !iso | bigboss__
[23:59] <bastidrazor> !iso > bigboss__
[23:59] <piv> cabrey, i remember firefox used to have that, but how do you use profiles?
[23:59] <cabrey> !es | ccatalan
