[12:15] <Kesman> there
[12:15] <Theodor> flossgeek, thanks.
[12:15] <Theodor> Kesman, thanks as well.
[12:17] <Tagalon1> Does anyone know how to resolve a video signal timing problem on the desktop installation CD?
[12:19] <StingRay> Alakazamz0r, as I said I want to disable gnome logins(not make the secondary)I want the out of the login manager
[12:20] <StingRay> Alakazamz0r, dpkg-reconfigure gdm is allowing me to change the default WM only
[12:20] <Alakazamz0r> i know, then inside the default window manager
[12:20] <Alakazamz0r> you can select your default desktop
[12:22] <StingRay> Alakazamz0r, default desktop or only choosable desktop?
[12:22] <Alakazamz0r> i dont understand.
[12:22] <thePuck>  Tagalon: you can set the vga option to a resolution you know your dektop can handle in the boot menu on the livecd
[12:22] <StingRay> I mean I don't want the user to be able to choose gdm from the login manager at all
[12:23] <Kesman> you mean gnome?
[12:23] <triplah> hi, i've installed irssi on the liveCD because X wont start. can anyone tell me how to install the latest nvidia drivers so i can install ubuntu?
[12:23] <Alakazamz0r> oh, then i dont know what to tell you
[12:23] <Alakazamz0r> sorry
[12:23] <liquiddoom> triplah:https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[12:23] <Kesman> triplah: do you want to install the driver for the livecd ?
[12:24] <Kesman> or what
[12:24] <triplah> well i'd like to start X, so i can install ubuntu. i dont care what driver i have... just one that works
[12:24] <StingRay> Alakazamz0r, np.
[12:24] <triplah> i'm using the 8800gtx
[12:24] <triplah> liquiddoom: sorry - not in the console thanks
[12:24] <DSL_>     /quit
[12:25] <Kesman> triplah: have you tried the safe graphics mode in the livecd?
[12:25] <triplah> i tried changing the "nv" in xorg.conf to "vga" but to no avail
[12:25] <triplah> Kesman: yeah, that dropped me to conole
[12:25] <triplah> console*
[12:25] <POVaddct> triplah: vga is not a suitable fallback, try vesa
[12:25] <thePuck> try "vesa"
[12:25] <triplah> ahh ok thanks
[12:25] <Kesman> triplah: and then restart your X with sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[12:26] <Theodor> how can I transform .rpm file to .deb so I can install it? and is it a must to transform it?
[12:26] <Kesman> after changing the xorg.conf
[12:26] <triplah> hmm gdm is still failing
[12:26] <Rookie_> !alien
[12:26] <ubotu> RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu does not use RPM, but !APT, and RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[12:26] <liquiddoom> Theodor: Alien
[12:26] <triplah> i'll check xorg log
[12:26] <liquiddoom> Theodor: And yes, it must be converted
[12:26] <Theodor> why is it a must to transform it? Why they don't do it and I just download the .deb file?
[12:26] <Rookie_> to restart X - just press ctrl+alt+backspace
[12:26] <thePuck> different package manager format
[12:27] <liquiddoom> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RPM/AlienHowto
[12:27] <triplah> Rookie_: you missed a bit of the convo. i'm not in X :)
[12:27] <Theodor> http://kitenet.net/~joey/code/alien.html
[12:27] <Theodor> that's the one ?
[12:27] <Rookie_> ohh
[12:27] <danny> Im a beginner to linux world, but I have to admit that Ubuntu is amazing !!!
[12:27] <Kesman> Theodor: you can get alien from apt
[12:27] <Kesman> I think :P
[12:27] <triplah> anyway, it still says gdm is failing. and it isnt writing to xorg log, and isnt giving any useful output
[12:27] <danny> I was bored by Windows
[12:27] <thePuck> hmmm
[12:27] <Trentster> hey all I have done a dapper lamp install, I see now the one of the applications we need to run requires php version 5.04 and I see the version apt installed is 5.1.2 , can anyone assist me in downgrading via apt ?
[12:27] <Theodor> my ubuntu is not connected.
[12:28] <ar2k7> where (what files) do i remove the firefox totem plugin?
[12:28] <danny> everything is soooo faster !!!!
[12:28] <Kesman> triplah: cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep EE
[12:28] <Kesman> triplah: cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep WW
[12:28] <triplah> danny: looks like your "!" key is faster too! ;)
[12:28] <Theodor> do I need perl to work with Alien ?
[12:28] <thePuck> lol
[12:28] <ken> danny: keep up the enthusiasm and you shall get along fine in the linux world, And yeah BTW Welcome
[12:28] <triplah> Kesman: i rm'd the log. and tried a restart. still no file there. its not logging
[12:29] <triplah> Kesman: the init script is failing without any output
[12:29] <Rookie_> !tldp

[12:29] <triplah> Kesman: yeah. oh well... i'll just install gentoo. i dont know enough about debian to work this out just yet :) thanks for the help
[12:29] <danny> 32
[12:29] <Rookie_> !feisty
[12:29] <ubotu> The next version of Ubuntu (7.04; codenamed "Feisty Fawn"), it should be released in April 2007. At the moment it is alpha. Schedule: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FeistyReleaseSchedule - Specifications (goals): https://features.launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/feisty - Help in #ubuntu+1
[12:30] <danny> what are the new features in that next version ?
[12:30] <thePuck> nice....gentoo or arch is what I would run if not ubuntu
[12:30] <imbecile> im trying to set up the mail option in gkrellm and i need the path to thunderbird
[12:31] <liquiddoom> imbecile: /usr/bin/thunderbird
[12:31] <thePuck> $ apropos thunderbird
[12:31] <MehdiHassanpour> hi every body
[12:31] <Rookie_> which thunderbird
[12:31] <xstasi> noone knows?
[12:31] <Trentster>  hey all I have done a dapper lamp install, I see now the one of the applications we need to run requires php version 5.04 and I see the version apt installed is 5.1.2 , can anyone assist me in downgrading via apt ?
[12:31] <MehdiHassanpour> How should I set apt config files to fetch and store packages from an ubuntu repository CD ? I need packages to be copied and stored in /var/cache/apt/archives
[12:31] <Kesman> danny: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_add_extra_repositories and http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_install_Multimedia_Codecs
[12:32] <tamacracker> why won't firefox open .php pages but instead makes you download it and not have a prog to open it?
[12:32] <danny> thanx Kesman
[12:32] <danny> help appreciated
[12:32] <ken> tamacracker: thats unusual behaviour
[12:32] <eightball> tamacracker: the server is not configured correctly.
[12:32] <liquiddoom> tamacracker: it's a fault of the web server, most of the time.
[12:32] <danny> I cant believe people were saying to me that linux is hard, hard to install, lol using apt-get is a joke !!!!
[12:32] <anto9us> danny, there is official documentation at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[12:32] <tamacracker> http://www.video-game-forums.com/search.php <- won't open and tries to make me download it to view it.
[12:33] <spikeb> can the livecd installer resize ntfs?
[12:33] <imbecile> okay what do i put in the "mail reading program" portion?
[12:33] <Rookie_> danny, use linux without any X
[12:33] <Kesman> spikeb: yes
[12:33] <spikeb> thought so
[12:33] <eightball> danny: you should have used linux 5 years ago or more :)
[12:33] <spikeb> cool
[12:33] <ken> Can someone tell me the difference between Free Software and Open Source Software
[12:33] <bobby> can anyone tell me how i can compile gtk apps? the pkg-config doesnt have the required files
[12:33] <ken> ?
[12:33] <xstasi> bobby, apt-get install libgtk1.2-dev
[12:33] <xstasi> or libgtk2.0-dev
[12:33] <Rookie_> ken - think that is ot
[12:33] <spikeb> Kesman, thanks for answering, especially considering i could have booted the cd to try it heh
[12:33] <bobby> ok ty
[12:33] <Rookie_> !ot
[12:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ot - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:33] <ken> Rookie_: ?
[12:33] <Rookie_> off topic
[12:34] <ken> !oss
[12:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about oss - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:34] <ken> !fs
[12:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fs - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:34] <Kesman> spikeb: no poblem to write "yes" when needed :P
[12:34] <spikeb> hehe
[12:34] <sushi_> !meta
[12:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about meta - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:34] <sushi_> !metapackage
[12:34] <ubotu> A meta-package is a package that simply depends upon other packages and brings them in.  I knew that Linux was more stable, more secure, but I just cant believe Im using 200 Mb of Ram and in Windodows for the same  utilisation It reaches 550....
[12:35] <liquiddoom> imbecile: What mail cilent do you use? Thunderbird?
[12:35] <eightball> imbecile: probably thunderbird or evolution whichever you prefer
[12:35] <spikeb> Kesman, yeah my mom's cool like that
[12:35] <Kesman> spikeb: so good luck with it
[12:35] <sushi_> harrisony1 how do i make a package?
[12:35] <imbecile> liquiddoom, so i just type "thunderbird"?
[12:35] <xipietotec> I don't need no stinkin mail client
[12:35] <liquiddoom> imbecile: That should work.
[12:35] <eightball> imbecile: any pop3 client
[12:35] <Rookie_> postfix ...
[12:35] <Kesman> imbecile: mozilla-thunderbird is the command
[12:36] <danny> ohhh and last question ? In your opinion guys, is Ubuntu the best distro out there ?
[12:36] <harrisony1> um....that i dont really know much you could try searching the forum and asking there
[12:36] <xipietotec> gmail + gsendmailer.py
[12:36] <anto9us> eightball, thunderbird and evolution both support pop3 and imap
[12:36] <thePuck> hmm best for what?
[12:36] <harrisony1> danny, yes
[12:36] <Rookie_> danny, depence on what you looing for
[12:36] <danny> overall
[12:36] <Kesman> danny: can't really say
[12:36] <harrisony1> danny, overall yes
[12:36] <danny> performance wise ?
[12:37] <thePuck> hmmm I would say overall yes. better perfomance and tweaking on a gentoo system, but a lot of work to set up, and arch is fast er but not as full featured
[12:37] <MehdiHassanpour> hi
[12:37] <xipietotec> danny: Technically a micro-linux install will get you the best "performance stats" or hell, just the kernel + bash.
[12:37] <harrisony1> performance pretty good it aint as good as gentoo but hey who wants to compile everythng
[12:37] <MehdiHassanpour> I need some help
[12:37] <bobby> danny: i think its great for a fast no config install but right now i like gentoo better for the controle. however the building from source takes for ever
[12:37] <Rookie_> there are other distros that can be better in some points ... but as a beginnerdistro ubuntu is the best
[12:37] <harrisony1> MehdiHassanpour, fire away
[12:37] <MehdiHassanpour> How should I set apt config files to fetch and store packages from an ubuntu repository CD ? I need packages to be copied and stored in /var/cache/apt/archives
[12:38] <danny> so we get the perfect balance (or almost ) with Ubuntu ?
[12:38] <MehdiHassanpour> It just reads from cd and install packages... I don't need this
[12:38] <thePuck> closer than most, yeah
[12:38] <danny> ohhh and what if I want to use Bitcomet ? Its impossible is it not ?
[12:38] <anto9us> danny, I use it for both server and desktop, very good performance, xubuntu is also great on limited hardware resources
[12:38] <Theodor> !alien
[12:38] <ubotu> RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu does not use RPM, but !APT, and RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[12:38] <harrisony1> MehdiHassanpour, errrr.....
[12:39] <xipietotec> the primary reason installing an RPM is dangerous: People moved to .deb for a reason
[12:39] <Kesman> danny: you can use bitcomet, not problem
[12:39] <datil> hi
[12:39] <harrisony1> xipietotec, inform me more?
[12:40] <danny> and okey okey this is my last question, my final last :P  I have a tablet PC (HP TC 4400) , would it work on Ubuntu ?
[12:40] <datil> how can i make the fonts in firefox look better? GNOME's font rendering doesn't seem to affect firefox
[12:40] <xipietotec> harrisony1: because RPM is terrible =P
[12:40] <harrisony1> datil, dont worry about hi's just ask
[12:40] <harrisony1> xipietotec, why? thats my point
[12:40] <danny> Kesman : so theres no need to emulate Bitcomet ?
[12:40] <bobby> i thought that rpms where ok. never used it though so what is wrong with it?
[12:40] <Kesman> danny: you may have some problems with it, but it works
[12:40] <Kesman> laptops and tablet pc:s are always a problem
[12:40] <Sdarmo> help
[12:40] <harrisony1> i just use alien when needed
[12:41] <harrisony1> Sdarmo, yes
[12:41] <xipietotec> harrisony1: it's difficult to work with and breaks easily
[12:41] <Trentster> whats the command using apt-get install to force the installation of a previous package ie: an older version of php?
[12:41] <harrisony1> xipietotec, fare enough!
[12:41] <Sdarmo> i managed to remove "admin" access from my login
[12:41] <danny> I hope in the future that Ubuntu will extend its compatibility with tablets !!!
[12:41] <xipietotec> as for why that is (e.g. the technical reason) I have no idea =)
[12:41] <harrisony1> Trentster, try in synaptic
[12:41] <danny> okey guys Good Buy  !!! and thanx again !
[12:41] <Sdarmo> is there a way i can get my dwfault user the admin right it had
[12:42] <xipietotec> although, recently Redhat said they're going to fix that or something
[12:42] <harrisony1> Sdarmo, what try retype it
[12:43] <harrisony1> xipietotec, you reckon synaptic could be used with ubuntu to manage rpms and debs, would be hard in terms of dpkg but synaptic can support rpm based
[12:43] <Sdarmo> when i install ubuntu 6.10 it installs with a default user USER1 and this user has the abililty to run apps in sudo mode
[12:43] <xipietotec> ....may the souce be with you....has there ever been a more nerd-cliche saying
[12:43] <Sdarmo> but i somewho managed to get to limit USER1
[12:43] <harrisony1> Sdarmo, yeah and you dont want that
[12:44] <Siv0x> hey will sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx install the latest drivers for an nvidia geforce 6800?
[12:44] <NoGoo> How do I format a hard drive? (or could I just remove the partition and create a new partition with gparted?)
[12:44] <Sdarmo> now USER1 has a basic user access only and i can't run anything that requires a privileged access
[12:45] <Balachmar> Could someone help me with building a custom kernel?

[01:03] <izprince> it causes all kinds of hell in Linux
[01:04] <izprince> what kind of modem is it?
[01:04] <hope13> it means you have to punch your modem
[01:04] <Hezkore> It's not actually a modem
[01:04] <Hezkore> It's fiber internet
[01:04] <Siv0x> harrisony1: /usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure must be run as root

[01:07] <brrrt> is it possible at all to install java e.g. using the LiveCD?
[01:08] <Theodor> Where should I put the alien file when I write this: sudo dpkg -i alien_8.64_all.deb ?
[01:08] <anto9us> Hezkore, what sort of speed are you getting?
[01:08] <imbecile> lifepositive, try k3b its really intuitive
[01:08] <Hezkore> Any good page for checking that?
[01:08] <harrisony1> Theodor, just be in the same directory
[01:08] <Theodor> how is that helping? I'm asking what directory, I don't know where to put it or where the dpkg is located ...
[01:08] <anto9us> Hezkore, your ISP's page is probably a good place
[01:09] <imbecile> can someone help me install 3d desktop?
[01:09] <Hezkore> Ugh takes ages to go there >_>
[01:09] <harrisony1> imbecile, search 3ddesk on http://ubuntuforums.org

[01:09] <imbecile> ahh thats probably why
[01:09] <imbecile> thanks
[01:09] <harrisony1> or sudo apt-get install 3ddesk
[01:09] <anto9us> Hezkore, did it work alright before Ubuntu?
[01:10] <Hezkore> Yeah it works great on this computer
[01:10] <brrrt> Theodor: it does not matter where the file is, but you have to include the path to your .deb file, like dpkg -i path/to/your/file/file.deb
[01:10] <harrisony1> plbgnr, whaty model
[01:10] <Balachmar> @ plbgnr ivtv probably
[01:10] <Theodor> ahhh
[01:10] <Theodor> Okay, thanks.
[01:10] <Theodor> And where does it install it?
[01:11] <anto9us> Hezkore, my guess would be network card is mis-configured maybe duplex needs disabling or something like that, I can't advise how though, I'm looking for documentation on it
[01:11] <plbgnr> harrisony1: leadtek tv 2000 expert
[01:12] <brrrt> Theodor: after install type: whereis <progamname>     to find out where, like:   whereis man
[01:12] <harrisony1> plbgnr, gives us 1 min
[01:13] <brrrt> Theodor: but usually it does not matter a lot
[01:13] <eQualizer> How do I run file manager as a root?

[01:14] <anto9us> Hezkore, do you know which make and model of network card you have?
[01:14] <brrrt> eQualizer: sudo nautilus    but be carefull!
[01:15] <harrisony1> Siv0x, also install the xserver drivers

[01:18] <rirux> hi
[01:18] <shArk> qos: yes .. the problem is that when i start it i can't see what i write in to the console
[01:19] <brrrt> who has ever successfully installed java on LiveCD??
[01:19] <anto9us> Hezkore, is that KBs or Kbs?
[01:19] <rirux> what is the corel equivalent of powerclip in inkscape?
[01:19] <IdleOne> Theodor, sudo apt-get build-essential will get you make and a few other packages
[01:19] <Kesman> brrrt: why would you want to do that?
[01:19] <Hezkore> anto9us: What's the difference?
[01:19] <qos> shArk, hm ... perhaps the windows fonts are missing ...
[01:19] <IdleOne> Theodor, sudo apt-get install build-essential will get you make and a few other packages
[01:19] <qos> i ve tried to repair my ubuntu system using the alternate cd rescue system ... but it also hangs with the following message: "kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(1,0)" does somebody know how i can save my installation?
[01:19] <Hezkore> anto9us: Kilobytes per second
[01:19] <ale1> what do I use to multiple monitor?
[01:19] <anto9us> Hezkore, KBs is 8x faster than Kbs
[01:20] <Theodor> IdleOne, I don't have Internet on my Ubuntu box.
[01:20] <brrrt> Kesman: i need it e.g. for my netbanking
[01:20] <shArk> qos: and how do i get them ??
[01:20] <Theodor> I won't find them on the DVD ?
[01:20] <rirux> what is coreldraw's powerclip equivalent in inkscape? does anybody know?
[01:20] <Hezkore> anto9us: Well it says kB/s
[01:20] <Kesman> brrrt: but why don't you install the system and then try again?
[01:20] <anto9us> Hezkore, yes, KB/s = kilobytes Kb/s = kilobits
[01:20] <IdleOne> Theodor, packages.ubuntu.com you can download them then burn to disc and install to ubuntu box
[01:20] <Hezkore> anto9us: Oh well it's done now, took 1minute to download 82 updates
[01:20] <Theodor> IdleOne, thanks.
[01:20] <anto9us> Hezkore, seems pretty quick to me :)
[01:21] <brrrt> Kesman: i am experimenting with the persitent feature and i want java
[01:21] <Siv0x> hey, after i ctrl+alt+backspace, if something goes wrong - how can i get back to my desktop?
[01:21] <Hezkore> anto9us: It's not my normal speed :S but anywyas.... when i surf it goes a lot slower!
[01:21] <IdleOne> Theodor, Ubuntu doesnt use rpm though
[01:21] <brrrt> Kesman: why not?
[01:21] <anto9us> Hezkore, with such a fast connection some servers will perform better than others, mileage is going to vary
[01:21] <nuked_omen> Siv0x, restart maybe
[01:21] <qos> shArk, the easyues way is to copy them from an existing windows installation. but there should be some font packs out there in the internet. just google ... and copy them to ~/.fonts <- just from memory, not sure
[01:21] <nuked_omen> Siv0x, or login and type startx
[01:21] <Theodor> IdleOne, I downloaded a driver that is .rpm I have to convert it in order to install it, no?
[01:22] <qos> shArk, then restart...
[01:22] <rirux> what is coreldraw's powerclip equivalent in inkscape? does anybody know?
[01:22] <shArk> qos thanks..
[01:22] <Siv0x> nuked_omen: k
[01:22] <Hezkore> anto9us: Well Google on this computer pops up in no time, it's just there, and it used to do the same on the machine that is now running Ubuntu, but now with Ubuntu it takes like a minute :/
[01:22] <maboc> Siv0x, Try ALT+F7   or ALT+F8
[01:22] <ken>  I am sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry :(
[01:22] <nuked_omen> Theodor, try rpm -ivh filename.rpm
[01:22] <Kesman> brrrt: ok well, are you running the 32 bit or 64 bit version?
[01:22] <Siv0x> maboc: k
[01:22] <IdleOne> Theodor,  make sure there isnt a .deb for it but yeah you can convert using alien or so I hear I have never done it before
[01:22] <Siv0x> maboc: brb then
[01:22] <nuked_omen> if it doesn't work, get the rpm package
[01:23] <Kesman> brrrt: I just would prefer the installed version since it's so much faster and the stuff you do to it last after rebooting :P
[01:23] <anto9us> Hezkore, what firefox version?
[01:23] <ale1> does anyone know how do use multiple monitors?
[01:23] <brrrt> Kesman: 32bit
[01:23] <Theodor> rpm, command not found
[01:23] <Hezkore> anto9us: The version that came with the Ubuntu install... lemme check
[01:23] <ken> Theodor: Converting a .rpm with alien to a .deb is a highly risky business. PLease don't attempt it EVER, unless you can't breathe without it. It can cause multiple problems
[01:23] <nuked_omen> ale1, yes, you turn em all on

[01:24] <anto9us> Hezkore, no addons installed in firefox?

[01:25] <ken> ale1: What do you want to do?
[01:25] <Hezkore> anto9us: nothing installed
[01:25] <ale1> use my laptop and another screen
[01:25] <brrrt> Kesman: no i am using the persitence feature of the live cd, it safes my settings on an usb stick

[01:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about icon size - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:26] <anto9us> Hezkore, maybe it's google's servers are slow today, I'd give it time to see if the problem is persistent
[01:26] <J-_> hrm
[01:26] <Hezkore> anto9us: Ok :( .. the updates haven't been fully installed, maybe they'll fix it?

[01:29] <ken> !hi | frafra
[01:29] <ubotu> frafra: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[01:29] <anto9us> dropsl, no problem, mileage varies with that though
[01:29] <frafra> in edgy eft and festy herd1 for amd64, at the boot the usplash is gray and dirty
[01:30] <qos> i ve tried to repair my ubuntu system using the alternate cd rescue system ... but it also hangs with the following message: "kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(1,0)" does somebody know how i can save my installation?
[01:30] <frafra> why?
[01:30] <frafra> I think it's a bug
[01:30] <frafra> the some thing happend on my laptop
[01:30] <ken> frafra: have you cleaned the display screen? :)
[01:31] <frafra> ken: sure :D
[01:31] <ken> frafra: I am using Edfy and never experienced that
[01:31] <frafra> I've tryied some cd...
[01:31] <frafra> edgy and festy
[01:31] <ken> frafra: Did you change the splash-screen through gconf-editor gnome-session..?
[01:31] <frafra> on amd64
[01:31] <frafra> some problem
[01:31] <frafra> no
[01:31] <Hezkore> Hey anto9us: where do i setup the duplex?
[01:31] <frafra> I haven't touch anything
[01:32] <foxpaul> hi all - i've installed ubuntu server and my network card wasn't detected during the install because the cable wasn't plugged in - how can i reconfigure it now that the install is finished?
[01:32] <frafra> so, it happends at every boot time... live or installed sistem
[01:32] <ken> frafra: YOu mean to say that the ubuntu logo is messeg up at the splash screen?
[01:32] <frafra> yes
[01:32] <IdleOne> foxpaul, System > Administration > Networking
[01:32] <frafra> the splash screen is grey/black
[01:33] <frafra> and the bar doesn't work well
[01:33] <anto9us> Hezkore, best advice I can give is to start here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkDevices
[01:33] <Kesman> brrrt: oh, didn't know about that :)
[01:33] <Hezkore> Tanx mate
[01:33] <Kesman> brrrt: cool indeed
[01:33] <Kesman> brrrt: did you manage to install java?
[01:33] <dropsl> anto9us: it generates one movie file, but the playback stops after the first small movie clip ends. so it does not recognize the following appended movie files :(
[01:34] <foxpaul> IdleOne: i don't have X or anything - it's ubuntu server
[01:34] <frafra> so, is it a bug?
[01:34] <IdleOne> foxpaul, oh oops didnt see all that part
[01:34] <ken> frafra: You filed a bug report at launchpad?
[01:34] <foxpaul> np
[01:34] <anto9us> dropsl, yeah, it sometimes works though, alternatively, I think you can set up a playlist and get vlc or mplayer to output all the files
[01:34] <rolnxyz> hi I have two partitions. One partition has Ubuntu Installed but only 200 mb free, and the other partition is a ext3 and has 6gb free. Is it possible to give 1 Gb from the ext3 partition to the Ubuntu partition without messing up too much?
[01:34] <ken> frafra: search the forums, if nothing turns up it's a bug discovered by you! :)
[01:35] <frafra> :)
[01:35] <frafra> ok
[01:35] <ken> rolnxyz: Yes, you can use gparted to resize the Ubuntu EXT3 partition
[01:35] <zak> nigger stole my bike!
[01:35] <dropsl> anto9us: yeah thats an option too, does there exist a program which can merge those files anyway? perhabs cinelerra or something?
[01:35] <foxpaul> anyone have any ideas how to reconfigure network interfaces from the command line?
[01:35] <rolnxyz> can i do that with the Disks Manager?
[01:35] <ken> rolnxyz: Do you have gparted installed?
[01:35] <ken> rolnxyz: No
[01:36] <ken> rolnxyz: "sudo apt-get install gparted"
[01:36] <rolnxyz> Ok. I will instal gparted and do it that way
[01:36] <rolnxyz> thanks
[01:36] <anto9us> dropsl, yes, I believe so but that's probably overkill for the job
[01:36] <TooR4u> i am not able to change the desktop background.....:( When ever i tried to change it is loading .... loading.... loading ...
[01:36] <ken> rolnxyz: always welcome :)
[01:36] <ken> rolnxyz: You know how to use gparted, right?
[01:36] <TooR4u> what is the problem?
[01:36] <TooR4u> how to change my background?
[01:36] <ken> TooR4u: what is loading
[01:37] <anto9us> dropsl, my suggestion is to output from vlc or mplayer to a new file, in case there was any confusion
[01:37] <stefanosad> hello to any one
[01:37] <stefanosad> ive a simple question
[01:37] <ken> TooR4u: right click on desktop, change background, select different and click ok to close that dialog box, what happens after that?
[01:37] <dropsl> anto9us: a bash script which cuts out the mpeg header for the rest of the files would be the best... i wonder why there doesnt exist a command line utility like mpegmerge or something :)
[01:37] <frafra> On certain platforms with 64-bit CPUs and NVIDIA graphics, the graphical boot screen does not function and a blank screen is displayed. The solution is to wait patiently for the login screen to appear ([WWW]  #56587).
[01:37] <frafra> hahaha
[01:37] <frafra> :D
[01:37] <dropsl> anto9us: how do i do that?
[01:37] <ken> !hi stefanosad
[01:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hi stefanosad - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:37] <hardkiffeur> foxpaul: vi /etc/network/interfaces ?
[01:37] <stefanosad> Ive a numeric usb keypad on my notebook
[01:37] <ken> frafra: Good job! you contributed to the community
[01:38] <anto9us> dropsl, I know it's possible on both those apps, you should consult your favourite apps' documentation though
[01:38] <foxpaul> hardkiffeur: not sure of the format, but i'll look into it - thanks
[01:38] <stefanosad> but It dont' work well because if I enable the blocknum it work but I cannot write correctly on my keyboard
[01:38] <dropsl> anto9us: ok thanks i will try :)
[01:38] <frafra> it's not a fix XD
[01:38] <TooR4u> ken, the change the desktop window is loading
[01:39] <stefanosad> can any one help me?
[01:39] <frafra> seems to be a kernel problem
[01:39] <anto9us> dropsl, mjpegtools is also in the repositories which should do the job
[01:40] <chimera_> Hi, is it possible to print screen every 0.01 seconds on linux, i would like use this to rip sprites from various games. (bad english)
[01:40] <dropsl> anto9us: cool, i will install and look into it ;)
[01:40] <frafra> should I must report this bug?
[01:41] <TooR4u> how to chage the desktop background manually?
[01:41] <stefanosad> frafra can u help me?
[01:41] <maxy> [AD]  XChat BigRoom plugin for noisy support channels - screenshot/download: http://old.homeip.net/martin/smallprojects/bigroom.html
[01:41] <TooR4u> through cmd prompt?
[01:42] <frafra> stefanosad: I dunno... I haven't an usb numeric pad :)
[01:42] <josh_> when is the next upgrade coming out? will it have the drivers for the jmicron raid controller included with the install package?
[01:43] <rolnxyz> ken, i have never used gparted. There is a lock on the Ubuntu partition because it is being used, and because of that I can't resize
[01:43] <TooR4u> desktop background pref are not comming ....
[01:43] <maxy> chimera_: for 0.01 seconds you'd have to have a pretty fast PC. Search packages for "screen record".
[01:43] <stefanosad> frafra yep, but if u know there is the possibility to activate the numpad only on a device, in this case numpad?
[01:43] <rolnxyz> ken, i have never used gparted. There is a lock on the Ubuntu partition because it is being used, and because of that I can't resize
[01:43] <TooR4u> how to change the desktop background manually?
[01:43] <rolnxyz> sorry for repeating i didn't mean it
[01:43] <christopher_l> how do I search for packages, using apt-get?
[01:43] <Everflex> hey, i just made a new partition on my harddrive formatted with ext3, but how do i make it mount?
[01:43] <maxy> apt-cache search thingy
[01:43] <DavidHyde> Hi Y'all
[01:43] <josh_> apt-cache search package-name
[01:44] <christopher_l> thanks
[01:44] <nuked_omen> !mounting
[01:44] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[01:44] <anto9us> TooR4u, there's a script here that may give a clue http://xml.swik.net/GNOME/GNOME+Hacks
[01:44] <Everflex> !DiskMounter
[01:44] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - See also !fuse
[01:45] <TooR4u> anto9us, ohh 1m
[01:45] <Everflex> !fstab
[01:45] <ubotu> The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[01:45] <DavidHyde> A very aggravating problem with the file system - it keeps setting itself to read only. I have to reboot and run under recovery mode to get back to read/write. Doesn't last long though. Any thoughts?
[01:45] <josh_> Everflex: system -> disks, change the path and click enable
[01:45] <nuked_omen> DavidHyde, add the 'rw' option in the /etc/fstab file
[01:45] <josh_> DavidHyde: how so?
[01:45] <TooR4u> anto9us, some kinda hacks?
[01:46] <nuked_omen> for that partition
[01:46] <Everflex> josh_: i'm on edgy, so theres no system > disks
[01:46] <josh_> ahh
[01:46] <alexkyo> lsit
[01:46] <anto9us> TooR4u, it uses gconftool-2 to set the wallpaper
[01:46] <rolnxyz> How can I resize my ubuntu partition with GParted. When I right click on the partition it has a lock and I am unable to resize it. I can't umount it neither. Any suggestions?
[01:46] <TooR4u> ok
[01:46] <TooR4u> any other options?
[01:46] <nuked_omen> Everflex, use fdisk -l  to determine what the device name is in the /dev directory
[01:46] <anto9us> TooR4u, that can be run from the command line
[01:46] <TooR4u> to set the background insted of this?
[01:47] <chimera_> I'm looking for an alternative to a program named "animget (Win32)" on Linux,
[01:47] <josh_> i haven't upgraded yet... i have to wait till i can get a kernel that supports jmicron raid controller
[01:47] <nuked_omen> Everflex, then mount it with 'sudo mount /dev/devicename /media/mountpoint'
[01:47] <nuked_omen> chimera_, what does that do?
[01:47] <Everflex> nuked_omen, oh, okay, thanks!
[01:47] <relon> hi
[01:47] <j2daosh> so they got rid of the gui way of doing mounts in edgy?
[01:47] <nuked_omen> np
[01:48] <nuked_omen> j2daosh, i'm not sure, i use dapper
[01:48] <j2daosh> not that i mind either way, i just find it interesting
[01:48] <j2daosh> thats what i used....
[01:48] <j2daosh> saved alot of nooby trouble for me when i came from windows
[01:48] <lehaid> hi, i moved from 6.06 to 6.10 and now it tells me kernel-k7 is obsolete cause of kernel-generic ?
[01:49] <nauj27> hi
[01:49] <Nigel2k5> moo
[01:49] <j2daosh> lehaid: that means that the kernel -k7 isn't current anymore and can be replaced with kernel generic
[01:49] <POVaddct> apt-get moo
[01:49] <lehaid> j2daosh, so how do i install a k7 kernel ?
[01:49] <Nigel2k5> :)
[01:50] <j2daosh> you dont need k7
[01:50] <lehaid> why not ? i dont want 386 kernel
[01:50] <Everflex> nuked_omen: how do i like create a mountpoint? I had a ntfs disk, and the reformatted it to ext3, but now i can't see in anywhere but in Gparted where it is known as /dev/hda3
[01:50] <POVaddct> Nigel2k5: apt-get moo actually does something :)
[01:50] <j2daosh> u can use the generic kernel
[01:50] <brainiac> you want the -generic kerbnel
[01:50] <lehaid> but generic is 386 no ?
[01:50] <brainiac> it replaces the optimized ones
[01:50] <brainiac> no
[01:50] <brainiac> there isnt an k7 kernel anymore
[01:51] <j2daosh> lehaid: k7 is old.... by now its no longer custom. it has been integrated into the generic kernel
[01:51] <brainiac> neither an 686
[01:51] <nuked_omen> Everflex, 'sudo mkdir /media/ntfs'
[01:51] <lehaid> why does uname -a give me i686 instead of k7 or k8 ?
[01:51] <nuked_omen> you can replace ntfs with anything of your choice
[01:51] <lehaid> i haev an amd64
[01:51] <Nigel2k5> POVaddct: yea, the moo cow
[01:51] <Everflex> nuked_omen: oh, ok. that's simple
[01:51] <nuked_omen> then mount the device on the mount point
[01:51] <j2daosh> because k-7 are old now...
[01:51] <nuked_omen> yeah
[01:51] <lehaid> so what should i put for my amd64 ?
[01:52] <j2daosh> any x86
[01:52] <Everflex> nuked_omen: but does it then automount like the other disks, or do i then need to mess around with fstab or something like that?
[01:52] <nuked_omen> i think 'what the bleep do we know' is a stupid movie
[01:52] <j2daosh> generic kernel will work fine, if you dont like it, you can try finding a custom 64bit kernel. google is your friend
[01:52] <lehaid> i see
[01:53] <lehaid> what is amd64's ubuntu channel name ?
[01:53] <brainiac> try /list
[01:53] <j2daosh> Everflex: if u just do a "mount" you will have to mount every time
[01:53] <nuked_omen> Everflex, if you're asking whether it gets automounted when you restart, no.. you have to mount it everytime manually
[01:53] <lehaid> the /list isn't smart in xchat
[01:53] <j2daosh> Everflex: you will have to use pmount or fstab for that
[01:53] <nuked_omen> Everflex, or add it to the fstab file
[01:53] <lehaid> wasn't there #ubuntu-amd64 once ?
[01:53] <lehaid> or is it a diff name ?
[01:53] <stefanosad> Sorry, to any one, but Ive a problem with my external usb numpad. It work only if Ive pressed the block num, but because I used a laptop, I cannot write correctly becasue block num deactivate some letters. Can any one help me?
[01:54] <Everflex> nuked_omen: ehh, okay.
[01:54] <lonran> i have a wireless card include in the board, how should i do not to detect it and load it at startup?
[01:55] <j2daosh> lonran: please restate the question. i dont understand whether you want to load it or not
[01:55] <lonran> i dont want to
[01:55] <lehaid> welp laters
[01:55] <lonran> i dont want to be detected
[01:56] <j2daosh> you can turn it off in your bios
[01:56] <j2daosh> probably under peripherals options
[01:56] <stefanosad> ??
[01:56] <lonran> thats the problem, theres no option
[01:56] <j2daosh> hmm...
[01:56] <stefanosad> loran and j2daosh u say to me?
[01:56] <j2daosh> stefanosad: huh?
[01:57] <lonran> j2daosh, any other idea?
[01:57] <j2daosh> lonran: so in your bios there is no option for peripherals, integrated lan... nothing?
[01:58] <lonran> nope. i know, strange
[01:58] <j2daosh> well then it seems your only 2 options are to (a), break it, (b) disable it in the network settings of ubuntu
[01:58] <j2daosh> it will still be seen but it wont be usable...
[01:58] <stefanosad> Sorry, to any one, but Ive a problem with my external usb numpad. It work only if Ive pressed the block num, but because I used a laptop, I cannot write correctly becasue block num deactivate some letters. Can any one help me?
[01:58] <j2daosh> thats about the best i can do for you
[01:59] <j2daosh> stefanosad: i dont have a numpad on my laptop. i cant help you
[01:59] <lonran> ok, even when it is disabled, it is loaded, and theres a conflict with a second card, and then, the system crashs
[01:59] <stefanosad> j2daosh: but u know a way to remap an external keyboard?
[01:59] <j2daosh> lonran: when you say conflict, explain
[01:59] <Kesman> lonran: check /etc/modules -file if the card's module is there and comment it out
[02:00] <j2daosh> stefanosad: no, im afraid i dont. sorry
[02:00] <ja> Has anyone managed to get the Creative Zen "V Plus" working with ubuntu? I cant get it working with gNomad or Amarok.
[02:00] <anto9us> lonran, there's sometimes an option to refresh configuration or something similar in the bios, try that
[02:00] <j2daosh> Kesman: personally i think he should just jam a pen into it :P
[02:00] <TooR4u> how to set away message ?
[02:00] <stefanosad> j2daosh: and a way to disable the num lock or enable only on an external device?
[02:00] <Kesman> j2daosh: :D
[02:01] <Kesman> TooR4u: /away messagecomeshere
[02:01] <TooR4u> thanq
[02:01] <gOldZahN> programm to extrat .rar?
[02:01] <lonran> i use a pcmcia wireless card, and when it connect to a network, the system crashs
[02:01] <plbgnr> pls everyone... I have this http://paste.uni.cc/12506 tv tuner and want to use it ;) which module should I use to achieve that?
[02:01] <Kesman> unrar
[02:01] <TooR4u> how to remove that?
[02:01] <Kesman> gOldZahN: unrar
[02:01] <anto9us> !info unrar
[02:01] <ubotu> unrar: Unarchiver for .rar files (non-free version). In component multiverse, is optional. Version 1:3.5.4-0.1 (edgy), package size 84 kB, installed size 216 kB
[02:02] <j2daosh> i know there is a way to disable numlock, but i have never needed to look it up
[02:02] <TooR4u> Kesman, how to remove that away message?
[02:02] <lonran> i use a pcmcia wireless card, and when it connect to a network, the system crashs, because a conflict with the other card
[02:02] <Kesman> TooR4u: /away
[02:02] <Kesman> type it again
[02:02] <j2daosh> try google, you should find the answer to your question quickly young grasshoppa
[02:02] <lonran> so i want to disable the second
[02:02] <snowkrash> hi
[02:02] <drkm> does anyone know how to get KGet to work with rapidshare.. it loads the download but only downloads the HTML file not the actual file it should be getting ?
[02:02] <snowkrash> what exactly is the xorg xserver and xfree86 and how is it related to gnome
[02:03] <j2daosh> lonran: well... if at first you dont succeed, delete everything that mentions the lancard :P
[02:03] <Kesman> xorg is an updated version of xfree86, and you could try man xorg
[02:03] <fyrzen> i hear that's a good book: "Snow Crash"
[02:03] <j2daosh> course i wouldn't suggest that without knowing how your system works.
[02:04] <snowkrash> and gnome is xorg based
[02:04] <snowkrash> right?
[02:04] <fyrzen> gnome is gnome based
[02:04] <lonran> Kesman, how do i know which module uses the card?
[02:04] <snowkrash> so gnome has nothing to do with xorg
[02:04] <Kesman> lonran: try lsmod |more
[02:04] <j2daosh> your lan *could* be tied in with something else and deleting the references and settings for it could really botch your system
[02:04] <fyrzen> no it does
[02:04] <gOldZahN> kesman, i installed it with synaptic....how to extract a file using unrar?
[02:04] <snowkrash> and hwo
[02:04] <snowkrash> how
[02:04] <Kesman> snowkrash: gnome is running on top of xorg proviing you the desktop environment
[02:04] <batch> snowkrash, of course it does
[02:04] <snowkrash> ok
[02:04] <Kesman> *providing
[02:05] <j2daosh> i on the otherhand... i have 13 hours a day to kill at work so i normally delete stuff that causes full system reinstalls to kill time
[02:05] <snowkrash> so how can i get the xorg version
[02:05] <snowkrash> which is installed
[02:05] <snowkrash> on my system
[02:05] <batch> ?
[02:05] <snowkrash> xorg --version?
[02:05] <batch> yes
[02:05] <fyrzen> only with one dash
[02:06] <Kesman> gOldZahN: man unrar
[02:06] <fyrzen> xorg -version
[02:06] <batch> Xorg -version, fyrzen
[02:06] <fyrzen> i stand corrected
[02:06] <nilsl> zsh ftw
[02:06] <nilsl> I would only type xorg and tab
[02:06] <gOldZahN> kesman, i instlled it already..how to extract a file with it now?
[02:06] <snowkrash>  man xorg -V
[02:06] <snowkrash> man, version 2.4.3, 2005-07-03
[02:06] <anto9us> gOldZahN, unrar e file.rar
[02:06] <nilsl> And zsh would do the job, so you don't really stand corrected fyrzen
[02:07] <snowkrash> this is quite an old one
[02:07] <snowkrash> isnt it
[02:07] <nilsl> ;)
[02:07] <gOldZahN> anto9us, thX
[02:07] <yccheok> hi, wat is the download manager used in ubuntu???
[02:07] <snowkrash> but its the one which comes within the edgy ubuntu
[02:07] <Kesman> snowkrash: just type Xorg -version ,no man in front of it
[02:07] <Kesman> or Xorg -V whatever
[02:07] <snowkrash> ok
[02:07] <furryballs> Is it possible to use the new internet explorer with ubuntu for website testing? I would rather not use wine.
[02:07] <batch> snowkrash, whats your problem exactly
[02:07] <anto9us> furryballs, yes, it works through wine though
[02:08] <fyrzen> IE 6 works well with wine, just that it lags...
[02:08] <furryballs> meh, I guess I'll try it so I don't have to use windows. :3
[02:08] <nuked_omen> why would anyone wanna run IE on linux?
[02:08] <gOldZahN> anto9us, but where are the extractet files now?
[02:08] <levander> That screen that's mostly orange and says Ubuntu on it with a black background when you bootup and shut down, that is called the "splash screen"?
[02:08] <batch> nuked_omen, retardation
[02:08] <anto9us> gOldZahN, should be in same directory
[02:08] <Kesman> levander: yes
[02:09] <Ubunti_Ki_> Does anyone know how to set up my Wireles Net in my IBM laptop ?
[02:09] <levander> Kesman: is there any easy way to modify it?  It still says kubuntu for me from when I installed kubuntu-desktop to try it.
[02:09] <gOldZahN> anto9us, hmm...i cant find anything....is there a way to define the extracting directory?
[02:09] <batch> Ubunti_Ki, it should work automatically
[02:09] <nuked_omen> !wireless
[02:09] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs

[02:12] <snowkrash> coz they suck
[02:12] <feihung> I have problem, I just installed new display card(Geforce FX 5200), I want to install edgy but it always hang, it said kernel panic, but if I unplug it and use old display the installer working good, I can install and run windows XP with FX5200, any experience, please help
[02:12] <relon> nothing speak italian?
[02:12] <snowkrash> maybe they run better on a old version
[02:12] <Kesman> snowkrash: follow the instructions in the ubuntuguide to install ati drivers
[02:12] <anto9us> !it
[02:12] <ubotu> Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[02:13] <snowkrash> doesnt work
[02:13] <snowkrash> i tryed
[02:13] <relon> ok thank's
[02:13] <Kesman> snowkrash: what card do you have?
[02:13] <snowkrash> which one do u mean there are several
[02:13] <skukza> !nvidia
[02:13] <snowkrash> ati x800 gto
[02:13] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[02:13] <relon> bye
[02:13] <snowkrash> maybe its my card
[02:13] <Hezkore> Argh someone help me, my internet is uber slow and i've tried everything! D:
[02:13] <nuked_omen> feihung, maybe start ubuntu  in graphic safe mode
[02:13] <fyrzen> feihung, boot ubuntu in recovery mode or whatever it's called and see if you can get access to a console and log on
[02:13] <Kesman> snowkrash: have you tried sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx ?
[02:13] <snowkrash> sure
[02:14] <snowkrash> already
[02:14] <snowkrash> but didnt work out
[02:14] <Kesman> how do you know it didn't work?
[02:14] <batch> beryl is silly
[02:14] <fyrzen> then you might want to 'uname-r' and reinstall your kernel or compile a new one
[02:14] <fyrzen> and after that reinstall the graphics driver or compile a new one
[02:15] <Kesman> snowkrash: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Edgy_Installation_Guide did you follow this one?
[02:15] <HotSergio> can somebody tell me the shutdown command for ubuntu?  shutdown -h -now works but it's taking longer than when i go to the shutdown menu and press the shutdown button
[02:15] <xipietotec> anyone know what pygtk-codegen-2.0 is?
[02:15] <Kesman> snowkrash: I have x700 and worked like a charm to me
[02:16] <anto9us> Hezkore, I think you should try isolating where the problem is, I suggest, if you have another computer, testing the network card by transferring a file over your network, then transfer a file over the internet using wget to eliminate firefox as the problem
[02:16] <Hezkore> anto9us: Why don't i just try Opera internet browser instead?
[02:16] <anto9us> Hezkore, yes, you could do that too :)
[02:16] <fyrzen> and try links too
[02:16] <hope13> does NX no machine work in ubuntu?
[02:16] <nuked_omen> cuz opera browser sucks
[02:17] <feihung> nuked_omen, it's same result eventhough I use safemode, it hang after last line "EIP is at Clear_local..."
[02:17] <Kesman> snowkrash: if you install the driver with that howto, read it trough a couple of times before starting
[02:17] <HotSergio> nobody knows the shutdown command?
[02:17] <snowkrash> kkkyes i followed this instructions

[02:30] <rolnxyz> Is there anyway to resize my / Ubuntu partition? I am trying but I can't resize unless its umounted, and I can't use any live-CD. Any suggestion?
[02:30] <skukza> hmm ive jsut installed new nvidia drivers how do i test them
[02:30] <NoobieDoobieDo> rolnxyz: hrm.....
[02:30] <NoobieDoobieDo> skukza: reboot the WM
[02:30] <skukza> eh?
[02:30] <nuked_omen> NoobieDoobieDo, yeah, go to talk to the guys at ubuntu-offtopic
[02:31] <nuked_omen> they cool
[02:31] <NoobieDoobieDo> skukza: reboot the windows manager, or run glxgears

[02:32] <anto9us> rolnxyz, do you have another computer or another hard disk?
[02:32] <freeeeeez> now can someone give me instructions on how to instlal limewire
[02:32] <rolnxyz> its a laptop
[02:32] <freeeeeez> i did the instructions on the net and it didn't work
[02:32] <rolnxyz> i do have another computer
[02:33] <anto9us> rolnxyz, might be tricky sticking the laptop HD in there to resize unless you have a converter for it
[02:33] <nuked_omen> freeeeeez, how are we installing limewire?
[02:33] <Zaggynl> Anyone has experience with aegis-antivirus?
[02:33] <freeeeeez> can i install by apt-get?
[02:33] <freeeeeez> i never tried that
[02:33] <nuked_omen> try it then
[02:34] <freeeeeez> is it just apt-get install limewire?
[02:34] <Zaggynl> yes
[02:34] <freeeeeez> ok
[02:34] <rolnxyz> anto9us, mmm I dont have a converter... I guess I have to find some other way
[02:34] <nuked_omen> Zaggynl, not me, but avira antivir is a pretty good free antivirus program
[02:34] <anto9us> rolnxyz, if the other computer runs linux you might be able to set up a network boot, though it's not for the faint hearted
[02:34] <Zaggynl> nuked_omen, cool, linux native and free?
[02:34] <nuked_omen> Zaggynl, no.. winders
[02:34] <Zaggynl> ah

[02:35] <NoobieDoobieDo> hi
[02:35] <perlmonk> Do you know guys how much this is common in #debian ?
 Trentster: and really, you need to ask #ubuntu or use their forums, since we don't know anything about their packages.
 dondelelcaro, thanks....and i have been asking for hours there..no-one responds...
[02:35] <perlmonk> I mean, is it like none of the ubuntu people able to support the OS ?
[02:35] <perlmonk> you guys need to progress....
[02:35] <anto9us> Trentster, I responded to him about 20 minutes ago
[02:36] <TooR4u> ha
[02:36] <perlmonk> doesn't seem like it helped
[02:36] <freeeeeez> there is no apt-get install limewire
[02:36] <freeeeeez> sorry
[02:36] <perlmonk> but it's just not an isolated case
[02:36] <freeeeeez> i just tried it

[02:36] <nuked_omen> perlmonk, what was your problem?
[02:36] <rolnxyz> anto9us, nope its a windows computer... I dont know what is wrong with this laptop... It just doesn't recognize linux CD's. I installed ubuntu by instlux
[02:36] <Zaggynl> freeeeeez, perhaps the repository is missing
[02:36] <freeeeeez> how do i add it
[02:36] <perlmonk> we get TONS of people coming there with this statement "I asked in #ubuntu but noone answered." sometimes for very simple things :P

[02:37] <skukza> how fast should glxgears be running?
[02:38] <Zaggynl> depends on the hardware and whatnot
[02:38] <Zaggynl> glxgears is not really a benchmark
[02:38] <skukza> nvidia 6600
[02:38] <NoobieDoobieDo> skukza: fast enough so you're satisfied :)
[02:38] <NoobieDoobieDo> <-- nvidia ti 4200
[02:38] <skukza> well i dont think 3d is enabled some how
[02:38] <NoobieDoobieDo> skukza: glxinfo
[02:39] <skukza> seeeing as glxgears is running very slowly and yet to return a value
[02:39] <freeeeeez> those directions on that sight are right.. my software sources looks differen't

[02:40] <Zaggynl> skukza, it appears you haven't installed drivers for your video card yet, or something went wrong
[02:40] <HeathenDan> lol

[02:43] <hope13> I did a Alt+ctl+f1 and I don't know how to get back to GUI

[02:50] <gili> I need some help with audio conversion......
[02:50] <klaas> MenZa use ntpdate, it updates your time over ntp servers
[02:51] <gili> how do i convert APE (monkeys audio) files to MP3/Wav???
[02:51] <Zaggynl> gili, I heard audacity is a nice program for such things, don't have experience with it though
[02:51] <MenZa> klaas: right, can I set timezone flags?
[02:51] <NoobieDoobieDo> MenZa: ya that does look pretty confusing
[02:51] <MenZa> e.g. gmt+1 or CET
[02:51] <anto9us> Trentster, ok, follow the steps on that link https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto
[02:51] <klaas> your timezone should be set already, you chose that during ubuntu intallation
[02:52] <Trentster> anto9us, thanks man.....
[02:52] <MenZa> This is actually Debian, but it's the same application (date)
[02:52] <MenZa> (server)
[02:52] <klaas> well you set the timezone over a file in /etc
[02:52] <klaas> google it for debian, not sure if its 100% equal
[02:53] <MenZa> Hmm, I only wish to set the time for my user account
[02:53] <MenZa> Okay, thanks
[02:54] <Hezkore> Hey when i try to view my shared folders from another computer it asks me for a password... where do i change that? :S
[02:54] <enyc> Hezkore: erm you wmean files share on Ubuntu-computer using samba?
[02:54] <Hezkore> .... Sure whatever :S
[02:55] <enyc> Hezkore: well i need to know what you mean in order to answer the question correctly
[02:55] <Hezkore> Ok well here's what i did
[02:55] <Hezkore> I clicked System > Admin stuffzorz > Shared folders
[02:56] <Hezkore> Then i selected to share my Home folder and now when someone tries to access it, they are asked to enter a password and username
[02:56] <enyc> Hezkore: right... and when you do this initially you need to choose to install samba or nfs iirc
[02:56] <Hezkore> It said Windows or somethig, i selected Windows
[02:57] <enyc> Hezkore: right ok
[02:57] <Hezkore> Unix and Windows i think...
[02:57] <Hezkore> I choose Windows
[02:57] <Hezkore> Oh hey
[02:57] <lilly> what do i need to start making LaTeX documents?
[02:57] <enyc> Hezkore: erm you can use the "smbpasswd -a" command to create a samba-password for your user-account.... after you have done this... other ussers acan connect esing your username and the smbpasswod you created
[02:57] <Hezkore> When i share the folder i can select SMB or NFS
[02:58] <Hezkore> Cool i'll try that
[02:58] <KloBass> hi I have problem with my graphic card :( have Edgy and card is Mobile 945GM.. using i810 driver.... direct rendering is enabled BUT it have kind of broblem : " libGL warning: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x5b "
[02:58] <KloBass> I searched with google on our czech forum ubuntuforum and nowhere I can find how to force that stupid card to do what it have to do
[02:58] <feihung> I got P4I45GV motherboard and additional Geforce5200 AGP card, P4I45GV has a built-in video. Im having problem istalling Ubuntu 6.10 since Im new in ubuntu and never tried any Linux, can somebody help me what to do? When I change my primary video in BIOS to the built-in, the installation is good, but when I change it to AGP Nvidia 5200 FX, the installation just hangs. Is there any way I could do this right?
[02:58] <siv0x> how do i enable universe/multiverse in my sourcelist?
[02:59] <enyc> KloBass: hrrm i know intel have decided on open driver architecture to support their 3d acceleraters... this situation is likelo to improve regardless ;-)

[02:59] <bungle> is there some gadget that registers how hard youre blowing down a tube on the computer.  like whatever christopher reeve uses?
[02:59] <lukus001> Does anyone know how I can get ubuntu to force a specific application to run through a certain port?
[03:00] <enyc> Hezkore: erm... with samba (you are sharing with SMB/samba), the sending-computer sends a username and authonticates the password... this is checked againsst the smbpassword for a user account...  then access is allowed to whatever that user could access on that unix system... its erm complicated to understand at-first
[03:01] <enyc> Hezkore: mostly you just need to understand that the UNIX password on your account is not the same as the smbpasswd (SAMBA password) in short
[03:01] <coolrazor007> With a default install of ubuntu server, I installed openssh server, but when I try to connect it says "connection refused"  Why?
[03:01] <enyc> Hezkore: hence you have to 'smbpasswd -a' to "Add" a samba-password for your account... then you can change it with "smbpasswd" if you like

[03:02] <enyc> Hezkore: ok ;-)
[03:03] <Hezkore> enyc: Well thanx mate!
[03:03] <enyc> Hezkore: I have this habit of doing most things commandline and then later discovering the fancy click-mouse way of doing some of them later

[03:03] <enyc> Hezkore: lots of "oh I didnt know you could do that"
[03:03] <Hezkore> enyc: I've used Ubuntu for 5 mins, it's all new to me :S how do you know all of these terminal commands?
[03:03] <anto9us> lukus001, sorry, that was meant for bungle
[03:04] <anto9us> bungle, there's a team dedicated to accessibility, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Accessibility/Team

[03:04] <coolrazor007> ...how do I whisper in IRC?
[03:04] <Hezkore> enyc: I have a dvorak keyboard myself
[03:05] <enyc> Hezkore: so.. i learnt and asked questions and experimented
[03:05] <anto9us> lukus001, yeah, i scrolled too quick for my eyes to keep up with my brain, or vice versa, time for a cup of tea
[03:05] <enyc> Hezkore: I only have layout set in software.. move the keytops around ;-)
[03:05] <Hezkore> enyc: Ah lol
[03:05] <enyc> Hezkore: well anyway  aoeuidhtns !
[03:05] <Hezkore> enyc: Linux is such a mess -_-
[03:05] <enyc> Hezkore: what do you mean?
[03:06] <enyc> Hezkore: the world is a mess ;-)
[03:06] <enyc> Hezkore: life is a mess ;-)
[03:06] <Hezkore> enyc: Not with Windows Vista, it fixes your whole life :P
[03:06] <enyc> Hezkore: error in Hezkore

[03:07] <Hezkore> Sorry!
[03:07] <orgy`> hi
[03:07] <siv0x> Is anyone familiar with installing Sun JRE so i can run frostwire? I've checked all those forums, etc that you guys gave me but I still cant figure it out..
[03:07] <enyc> Hezkore: hrrm Once you get use d to things ubuntu is preety good all-round actually
[03:07] <anto9us> Hezkore, I think I've isolated the problem, it appears to be located between your keyboard and chair, the device has been badly programmed by microsoft
[03:08] <enyc> Hezkore: if you expect things to be like windows you are starting from the wrong point-of-view sort-of-thing
[03:08] <orgy`> is there a possibilitie to get the main password of a revelation file? :(
[03:08] <enyc> siv0x: i know that can be done on dapper-onwards... what release are you using?
[03:09] <siv0x> enyc: Edgy =\
[03:09] <Hezkore> enyc: I've never fully understood Linux, i just want something that works and Linux has never worked for me, not on any computer i've tried, Ubuntu works really bad right now
[03:09] <enyc> siv0x: hrrm I see the problem lol
[03:09] <enyc> siv0x: im sure its do-able... i just dont kno myself
[03:09] <enyc> Hezkore: keep learning ;-)
[03:09] <siv0x> Hezkore: Linux works bad untill you get the proper drivers installed.
[03:10] <siv0x> enyc: yeah.. =\
[03:10] <Plinty> why do I keep getting "Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: memmove" error when trying to run java applications?
[03:10] <enyc> Hezkore: do 1-bit-at-a-time and keep notes on anything important you found out
[03:10] <Hezkore> There are about 9,0493320948320493209432094328094 drivers for each every thing and they all works like poop
[03:10] <enyc> Hezkore: lol things dont quite work like that
[03:10] <Plinty> I have installed sun-java
[03:10] <Hezkore> They don't work at all!, that's the problem :P
[03:11] <enyc> Hezkore: what are you trying to use?
[03:11] <Hezkore> Well... everything lol
[03:11] <Hezkore> Internet is slow, browsing thrue my HD is slow
[03:11] <Hezkore> Resizing windows is slow
[03:11] <Hezkore> Making a new partition didn't work
[03:11] <KloBass> Hezkore: use hammer
[03:12] <enyc> Hezkore: I have scanning and dualmonitors/video and various ethernet and sound adapters and scsi and PATA and SATA and video-capture and raid and chipsets and printers and allsorts that all speaks to the various componets fine...
[03:12] <Spyder_uk> hey guys I wonder if someone can help me, I have an annoying firefox problem which I cannot find the answer in days.  Basically a lot of the time when I open firefox it starts minimized and wont maximize
[03:12] <enyc> Hezkore: rught... "internet" -- what do you mean there ?
[03:12] <enyc> Hezkore: network adapter ?
[03:12] <Hezkore> enyc: I can surf the net but every page takes about 1-2 minutes to load
[03:13] <enyc> Hezkore: hrrm if video display is slow that might be specific issue.. you may need  fglrx or nvidia  driver to make things fast
[03:13] <Hezkore> I have a ATI
[03:13] <enyc> Hezkore: thats odd....  normal ethernet adapter?
[03:13] <Hezkore> Yeah
[03:13] <enyc> Hezkore: see "lspci" to see hardware list etc.
[03:13] <enyc> Hezkore: hrrm does it work ok from various LiveCDs ?
[03:13] <anto9us> I think throughput is pretty good with 870KB/s
[03:13] <enyc> heh this machine has an older NE2000 card on 10base2 !! lol
[03:14] <anto9us> enyc, that's Hezkore's throughput btw
[03:14] <Hezkore> I have two Ethernet Controllers...
[03:14] <enyc> Hezkore: if you are dhaving some funny issues like that... I would get out a few different liverds and see where the problem changes...
[03:15] <izprince> Quick question, if I want to try Feisty, can I upgrade to it with dist-upgrade?
[03:15] <Hezkore> Livewhaas?
[03:15] <KloBass> okey one more problem with acpi.. ubuntu 6.10 didt recognize when my ntb is on battery or not it always say : computer is on AC power.... somebody know how to ifx it? I read somewhere that is something with psmouse module
[03:15] <enyc> izprince: not sure... there may be other requirments.. nad note that Feisty is DEVELOPMENT ONLY
[03:15] <enyc> KloBass: not heard of that... I tend to do bios-update before asking more questions myself
[03:16] <KloBass> enyc: have bios updated
[03:16] <enyc> KloBass: ok
[03:16] <freeeeeez> damn i just downloaded google earth and i cant find it.. how do i find applications i download that dont show up in applications
[03:16] <enyc> freeeeeez: erm... I think you need to run the .bin file as root
[03:17] <freeeeeez> its all installed
[03:17] <freeeeeez> also check gmail didn't show up
[03:17] <enyc> freeeeeez: when its installed itself you tcan then create a launcher to the /usr/local/bin/(whatever) to launch it
[03:17] <siv0x> Has anyone in here installed Java 5 JRE on Edgy?
[03:17] <Hezkore> The problem is connecting to servers... i think.. because once i'm connected to like Google, searching goes very fast, but as fast as i go to another page it takes 1-2 minutes to connect to it
[03:17] <orgy`> anyone knows of getting the relevation password managers super password?
[03:17] <anto9us> freeeeeez, if you used firefox press ctrl+Y from firefox
[03:17] <enyc> Hezkore: thats really weird
[03:17] <freeeeeez> that just brung up the downloads
[03:18] <orgy`> Hezkore what sites are you talking about =)
[03:18] <batch> bully_, :]
[03:18] <enyc> Hezkore: I would try a different ethernet card if possible... I would try a few different liverds if possible (e.g. KNOPPIX 5.0.1 and ubuntu-edgy-desktop and ubuntu-dapper-desktop) and see what changes
[03:18] <anto9us> Hezkore, try installing the fasterfox addon from here http://fasterfox.mozdev.org/
[03:18] <Hezkore> I don't have time for all that!, i've got other things to do :(/
[03:18] <enyc> Hezkore: you might find that everybody with that revisien aof that network chipset with that kernel version has this problem
[03:18] <Hezkore> Argh!
[03:18] <enyc> Hezkore: well then dont expect to find out more ;-)
[03:19] <enyc> Hezkore: debugging skillz needed !
[03:19] <Hezkore> Terrible
[03:19] <enyc> Hezkore: I know all about this sort of thing with fixing computers... not just any particular OS...
[03:19] <Zaggynl> Hmm, why does performance in 3d suck when you have gnome-system-monitor running?
[03:20] <enyc> Hezkore: general purpose machines / OSes  simply are never perfect... I tend ot find/think athat any program/system/device has different advantages/disadvantages/incompatibilites than some others ;-)
[03:20] <Hezkore> Windows is the shit, especially Vista it works great!
[03:20] <enyc> Hezkore: I just make things that can work together, work together, and keep notes of anything important... and keep things working
[03:21] <enyc> Hezkore: and I don't deal in such "overgeneralizations" like that you mentioned there
[03:21] <Hezkore> Just downloading VLC Player is weird...
[03:21] <lerneaen_hydra> does anyone know how to get both runtime and dev wxwidgets installed?
[03:22] <anto9us> Hezkore, you installed it from the repositories or downloaded from vlc website?
[03:22] <Li`lEndian> Hi, i have a really slow connection, my problem is that apt-get gets timed out too often
[03:22] <Hezkore> I went to the VLC player page and select Ubuntu and now i have to use the terminal to get it..
[03:22] <Li`lEndian> is there a way i could increase the time-out period in seconds- and resume?
[03:23] <enyc> lerneaen_hydra: well there are a few different -dev packages for libwx  etc.
[03:23] <anto9us> Hezkore, no, you can use Applications | Add Remove to install it
[03:23] <enyc> lerneaen_hydra: erm "apt-cache search wxwidgets" ?
[03:23] <Hezkore> anto9us: ... Wow yeah, that's pretty nice actually :D
[03:24] <LameBMX> dual monitor .. anyone know why http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39464/ isnt working ... its susposed to be s-video out for the secondary
[03:24] <webwolf_27> for VLC universe/multivers repos have to be setup
[03:24] <foxpaul> hi all - any ideas how i can enable verticalscoll on my laptop, with a synaptics touchpad? i've tried putting VertScrollDelta in the config, but didn't have any effect
[03:24] <anto9us> Hezkore, yes, thousands of apps at the click of a button, you don't get that on vista :)
[03:24] <lerneaen_hydra> enyc: I've grabbed all the ones that seemed good to have, but when I try to make depend my app it can't find the needed files
[03:24] <Hezkore> anto9us: Actually you do :S
[03:24] <enyc> lerneaen_hydra: erm...
[03:24] <enyc> lerneaen_hydra: you are trying to compile something...
[03:25] <feihung> I got P4I45GV motherboard and additional  Nvidia 5200 AGP card, P4I45GV has a built-in video. Im having problem istalling Ubuntu 6.10 since Im new in ubuntu and never tried any Linux, can somebody help me what to do? When I change my primary video in BIOS to the built-in, the installation is good, but when I change it to AGP Nvidia 5200 FX, the installation just hangs. Is there any way I could do this right?
[03:25] <feihung> I can not use safemode since after booting it hang
[03:25] <feihung> last line iseip is at clear_local_apic+0x21/0xC0
[03:25] <webwolf_27> Hezkore, at what cost
[03:25] <lerneaen_hydra> enyc: yes, wxchecksums
[03:25] <Hezkore> None, there are several free programs that can do it too
[03:25] <enyc> lerneaen_hydra: try "sudo apt-get build-dep (package)" where (package) is an existing package similar to what you are trying to compile
[03:25] <lerneaen_hydra> enyc: I do have build-essential installed and have compiled many other apps
[03:25] <enyc> lerneaen_hydra: this will install the 'build-dependancies' for (package)
[03:25] <lerneaen_hydra> enyc: I don't know of a similar package in the apt system
[03:25] <Hezkore> Hey where does it install VLC? :S
[03:26] <enyc> lerneaen_hydra: I tend to install 'build-essential' and 'fakeroot' actually
[03:26] <enyc> Hezkore: using the package?
[03:26] <webwolf_27> Hezkore, cost doesn't always meen price... look at some of those lisences, not to mention Vista's Lisence
[03:26] <enyc> Hezkore: or what ?
[03:26] <lerneaen_hydra> enyc: fakeroot?
[03:26] <enyc> lerneaen_hydra: its useful when building .deb packages
[03:26] <Hezkore> enyc: I used the add / Remove programs thing
[03:26] <lerneaen_hydra> enyc: oh, I see
[03:26] <Everflex> does anyone know of a guide or something on how to configure /etc/fstab?
[03:26] <enyc> Hezkore: hrrm then its prboably installed the 'vlc' package
[03:26] <anto9us> Hezkore, you may need to add repositories, only have to do this once, go to System | Administration | Software Sources...
search ubuntuguide.com?
[03:27] <anto9us> Hezkore, tick all the boxes except for source code
[03:27] <enyc> Hezkore: well then you can "dpkg -L vlc" to see what files were installed by that particular package (but not the packgaes it depepneds on)
[03:27] <Everflex> meng: i tried, but i can't find anything
[03:27] <enyc> Hezkore: you will probabyl find the main program binary (executable) is /usr/bin/vlc
[03:27] <mano> Hi everyone! I'm using edgy ppc...
[03:27] <Everflex> meng: oh, sorry. i tried the forums, but not the guide. thanks :D
[03:28] <mano> have anyone tried to install flash support via nspluginwrapper+qemu?
[03:28] <lerneaen_hydra> enyc: this is the start of the results from make depend: http://pastebin.ca/296737 (the warnings continue for quite a while)
[03:28] <Hezkore> Thanx everyone
[03:28] <mano> it seems possible, but can't find a tutorial...
[03:29] <mano> anyway thanks for a great distro!
[03:29] <Hezkore> Amazing VLC even works!, i didn't expect that
[03:29] <[Kork] > hi there. is installing debian-unstable pakets a problem? i need a a gaim-xmms-remote for gaim2
[03:30] <meng> i've got this problem with basic internet connectivity
[03:30] <joe_> Newb question. Im stuck trying to install the touchscreen driver from www.conan.de for the P1510 lifebook, it says to "Copy the file "fujitsu_drv.o" to the appropriate location ("/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/input")". The location /usr/X11R6/lib exists but not the /modules/input. Do i copy the file somewhere else or is there somthing else that i need to install first. Can anyone help please?
[03:30] <bob980> hallo
[03:30] <meng> i cannot even get into the internet through Ubuntu, Fedora or even Knoppix
[03:30] <enyc> lerneaen_hydra: well... in edgy.. "wx2.6-headers" package.. includes /usr/include/wx-2.6/wx/wx.h
[03:30] <anto9us> Hezkore, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats for playing all your media files
[03:31] <enyc> lerneaen_hydra: i.e. one of the files your ocmpile isn't seeing
[03:31] <meng> windows works well
[03:31] <enyc> meng: hrrm  network adapter ?  modem ?
[03:31] <gOldZahN> powerful webeditor?
[03:31] <enyc> meng: how was it configured on win32/64 in the first place?
[03:31] <Hezkore> Why do i need to read this anto9us?
[03:31] <meng> but in Linux, only konqueror works and nothing else would connect
[03:31] <lerneaen_hydra> enyc: hmm, that's not too fun
[03:31] <enyc> lerneaen_hydra: ??
[03:31] <mano> meng: are you behind a firewall?
[03:32] <enyc> lerneaen_hydra: ? (dont understand)
[03:32] <meng> enyc> ethernet through a DSL wireless router
[03:32] <lerneaen_hydra> enyc: any common reason that it can't find the files?
[03:32] <anto9us> Hezkore, vlc is good but it won't play everything, that page will help
[03:32] <enyc> lerneaen_hydra: well it depends where in looks for the headers to include
[03:32] <Hezkore> anto9us oh noes i just noticed that! D:
[03:32] <enyc> lerneaen_hydra: have you got eth eabove package installed?
[03:32] <meng> i even poped open my old Aztech modem to be sure and i could not even get through too
[03:32] <meng> mano> meng: are you behind a firewall? --> router's firewall all off
[03:33] <anto9us> Hezkore, go through that page and it will pay dividends
[03:33] <enyc> lerneaen_hydra: most config scripts let you specify --with-wx-headers=  sort of thing to tell them where to find things
[03:33] <lerneaen_hydra> enyc: yes, I have wx2.6-headers
 meng: how was it configured on win32/64 in the first place? -->static IP
[03:33] <enyc> lerneaen_hydra: pastebin the ./configure --help ?
[03:33] <mano> meng: if konqueror works, what doesn't?
[03:33] <lerneaen_hydra> enyc: I wasn't doing ./configure, just make depend
[03:33] <mano> meng: can you ping anything?
 everything else
 oh, ping works
[03:34] <kane77> how can i upgrade to gnome 2.16?? (I have dapper with 2.14 gnome)
[03:34] <enyc> meng: right... im not famailiar with WLAN adapter config acutally... I know there are many chipset wlan adapters that work well... and many that are a pain / take trouble to work correctly. mostly due to silly wlan adapter manafacturers not providing the necessary technical documentation
[03:34] <enyc> kane77: upgrade to edgy ;-)
[03:34] <tantris> Hi! I wanted to setup ntpd like explained at ubuntu.com but ntp-simple does not seemt to install the necessary files?
[03:34] <meng> enyc> er, on ethernet connection to router
[03:34] <enyc> lerneaen_hydra: hrrm not familira with that then
[03:34] <kane77> enyc, and without that??
[03:35] <enyc> kane77: not sure.. backported package
 meng: can you ping anything? --> yeah, just .com.my sites for now, taiwanese cable still down
[03:35] <anto9us> kane77, upgrade to edgy is by far easiest method
[03:35] <mano> meng: but this happens only with wireless, or also wired?
[03:35] <enyc> kane77: or backport it yourself...... i dont see why you should bother though
[03:35] <lerneaen_hydra> enyc: ok, thanks anyway
[03:35] <kane77> *sigh*
[03:35] <Everflex> how do i change the permissions of a partition?
 meng: but this happens only with wireless, or also wired? --> on a desktop, so no wireless to try
[03:36] <lerneaen_hydra> enyc: I'll check #wxwidgets
[03:36] <enyc> Everflex: I dont think partitions have 'permissions' but rather a filesystem on them can
[03:36] <kane77> everflex, I'd say in /etc/fstab
[03:36] <tantris> any idea how to setup ntpd on ubuntu edgy?
 i've tried another modem, but same thing too, it's a simpler non router one
[03:36] <enyc> Everflex: also the flags/config to 'mount' partitions can do that
[03:36] <enyc> tantris: its not usualy worth bothering unless you really want to sevre time clients locally
[03:37] <enyc> tantris: usually better to put a "ntpdate -u pool.ntp.org" in a cron-task
[03:37] <mano> meng: so, you can ping only .com sites, but via Konqueror you manage to reach everything. Firefox, gftp, etc won't work. Right?
[03:37] <tantris> enyc, I want to adjust the time drift on my server
[03:37] <enyc> tantris: NTPD can do funny things in my experience with NAPT scenarios
 meng: so, you can ping only .com sites, but via Konqueror you manage to reach everything. Firefox, gftp, etc won't work. Right? -->yup, even apt-get too
[03:38] <Everflex> kane77: ok. but i can't just figure out how to configure /etc/fstab. can you explain me the system or something?
[03:38] <enyc> tantris: unless this is a big problem you just setup an ntpdate command to run....  ive nevr got ntpd behaving itself... but this was on gentoo messy system ;-)
[03:38] <mano> meng: perhaps dns misconfigured?
[03:38] <kane77> Everflex, have you got there the partition you want to change?
[03:38] <mano> meng: can you ping an IP directly?
[03:38] <meng> DNS server is the router address
[03:38] <enyc> ping <IP_ADDRESS> ;-)
[03:39] <tantris> enyc: you are right, same for me, never got it running on gentoo, but I thought things might be better on ubuntu, so I will stick to ntpdate :-)
[03:39] <meng> mano> meng: can you ping an IP directly? --> as in local or internet?
[03:39] <Everflex> kane77:  yea. hda3 it's called.
[03:39] <enyc> tantris: im sure it can work but ntpd seems to be a poin
 ping <IP_ADDRESS> ;-) --> i am affected by the quake, so no go there
[03:39] <mano> meng: internet. If you can't ping www.ubuntulinux.org
[03:39] <kane77> what does it says in the line where it is?
[03:39] <mano> meng: try <IP_ADDRESS>
[03:40] <mano> meng: <IP_ADDRESS> is the ip of www.ubuntulinux.org
[03:40] <tantris> enyc: do you think I should inform someone about the incorrect website at help.ubuntu.com/community/NTPTimeSynchronisation?
[03:40] <enyc> tantris: 'ntpdate -u pool.ntp.org' seems to be suffirient
[03:40] <Everflex> kane77: i'll pastebin  it, 1 sec
[03:40] <meng> mano> can't ping
[03:40] <kane77> Everflex, ok
[03:40] <mano> meng: but in windows you can??
[03:40] <lerneaen_hydra> enyc: there was also an rpm of the program I wanted to run, is it easy to extract the program from an rpm?
[03:40] <mano> meng: strange!
[03:41] <abhinay> My system crashes when i switch from ctrl+alt+f1 to ctrl+alt+f7 , Anybody help plz !
[03:41] <mano> meng: what's your ip now?
[03:41] <izprince> about how long does it take for a kernel to compile?
[03:41] <mano> meng: I'll try pinging you
[03:41] <izprince> I think I might go do something else for a while
[03:41] <enyc> lerneaen_hydra: hrrm possimbly... use alien to convert the package.. but its not always a good way
[03:41] <enyc> tantris: I m not sure that page is incorrect myself
[03:41] <lerneaen_hydra> enyc: what about just grabbing the binary, rather than making a .deb?
[03:41] <mano> izprince: on what system?
[03:41] <Everflex> kane77: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39466/
[03:42] <enyc> tantris: I didnt know about "ntp-simple"
[03:42] <izprince> AMD64
 <IP_ADDRESS>
[03:42] <enyc> lerneaen_hydra: well that way work... dependaing what the binary was built fo
[03:42] <VMT2007> Is there a way to safely resize ext3 partitions?
[03:42] <Everflex> kane77: i just posted all of my fstab. it's the hda3 i want to automount and all
[03:42] <izprince> it's running a Sempron 3100+
[03:42] <mano> izprince: on my Athlon 3400+ AMD64 ten minutes
[03:42] <lerneaen_hydra> enyc: it says it's for mandrake linux
[03:42] <mano> izprince: but varies on the configuration...
[03:42] <lerneaen_hydra> enyc: nothing else I'm afraid
[03:42] <stefg> !gParted | VMT2007
[03:42] <ubotu> VMT2007: gparted is a GUI partitioning program, "apt-get install gparted", also available as a live cd http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[03:42] <mano> meng: I can ping you without problems
[03:42] <enyc> lerneaen_hydra: thats a but bizarre
[03:43] <meng> mano:Reply from <IP_ADDRESS>: bytes=32 time=3827ms TTL=42
[03:43] <VMT2007> yeah but my question is will that resize a journaled filesystem like ext3
[03:43] <kane77> Everflex, what do you want to change permissions to?
[03:43] <Hezkore> Hey where do i select what program opens what type of files...?
[03:43] <enyc> lerneaen_hydra: you should be able to get the ./configure type thing to find the headers and compile it yoursely etc.
[03:43] <dehvokahn> quick question - how do i page up to see all of the lines from a really long terminal output?
[03:43] <stefg> VMT: sure
[03:43] <Hezkore> Like AVI should always be opened with VLC
[03:43] <kane77> Everflex, you cannot have writable ntfs partition...
[03:43] <VMT2007> without sending everything to hell and back...
[03:43] <tantris> enyc: yes it unfortunately is, the ntp-simple neither installs the configuration files at /etc nor does it start ntpd e.g. through /etc/init.d ...
[03:43] <enyc> VMT2007: you can resize ext3 with gparted
[03:43] <mano> meng: try me at mano.homelinux.org
[03:43] <lerneaen_hydra> enyc: how would I do that?
[03:43] <meng> mano: i am doing all this through windows now
[03:44] <enyc> tantris: create launchpad bugs for the exact issue with details given
[03:44] <meng> i can ping and do konq, but that's it
[03:44] <Hezkore> Nevermind i foudn it
[03:44] <enyc> tantris: try o few differnt distro versions if possible
[03:44] <mano> meng: aww. It's strange.
[03:44] <anto9us> dehvokahn, shift+pgup
[03:44] <VMT2007> guess I'll have to use the live CD...
[03:44] <mano> meng: I don't think I can help you more :-( sorry
[03:44] <mano> meng: maybe it's this quake thing?
[03:44] <lerneaen_hydra> enyc: oh, now that I look the filename of the rpm has i586 in it
[03:44] <KenSentMe> I'm running ntp with ntp.ubuntu.com on two different machines, but they both have a different system time ( 5 mins difference). How can that be?
[03:45] <dehvokahn> anto9us, I tried that....it's only taking me to the top of what I can also scroll with the sidebar
[03:45] <mano> meng: has it ever worked, BTW?
[03:45] <lerneaen_hydra> enyc: which is not my architechture, IIRC I'm running i686
[03:45] <enyc> lerneaen_hydra: that means it may need pentium or compatible
[03:45] <enyc> lerneaen_hydra: no that will be fine
[03:45] <lerneaen_hydra> are they backwards compatible?
[03:45] <lerneaen_hydra> oh, nice
[03:45] <enyc> lerneaen_hydra: it means it might not work on 486/386
[03:45] <Everflex> kane77: as it is now, i can mount hda3 with sudo mount /dev/hda3 /media/hda3, but i can't access it because it sais it it owned by root... I also would like to make it automount on startup, like the other disks do.
[03:45] <meng> mano> meng: maybe it's this quake thing? --> it happened way before the quake
[03:45] <lerneaen_hydra> enyc: oh, ok
[03:45] <mano> meng: oh, ok.
[03:45] <lerneaen_hydra> enyc: not much of an issue for me
[03:45] <enyc> lerneaen_hydra: because it may use pentium-specific instructions in the compiled binary
[03:45] <anto9us> dehvokahn, you need to increase scrollback in the terminal's profile
[03:45] <kane77> Everflex, ok.. I see...
[03:45] <lerneaen_hydra> enyc: exactly. is it easy to strip out the binary from the rpm?
[03:46] <meng> kinda started when i flashed the router with malaysian firmware
[03:46] <enyc> lerneaen_hydra: im sure what you are asking can be made to work but id need to  try it myself to find out
[03:46] <enyc> lerneaen_hydra: you should be able to
[03:46] <enyc> lerneaen_hydra: maybe you can use 'cpio' no unpack it
[03:46] <izprince> the i386 version was unstable as all hell on this system
[03:46] <mano> meng: aww, that sounds bad
[03:46] <barata> hallo, anybody has problem with VLC after upgrading Dapper?
[03:46] <enyc> lerneaen_hydra: im sure its do-able.. i just havent done rpm stuff for aaaages
[03:46] <dehvokahn> anto9us, excellent - thank you :)
[03:46] <meng> so after that, even after swapping with my other spare modem, i cannot get through, static ip or otherwise
[03:46] <lerneaen_hydra> enyc: hmm, ok. you don't feel you need a graphical md5/sfv app? ;)
[03:46] <enyc> lerneaen_hydra: a what?
[03:47] <izprince> it would work for a while, then programs would start crashing randomly, then the whole system would lock up, and do it again on next reboot
[03:47] <enyc> lerneaen_hydra: err "md5sum" ? ;-)
[03:47] <Arcad3> can someone make a short how to...
[03:47] <mano> barata: not one problem, I'm running ppc, amd64 and i386
[03:47] <Panagant> Everflex: Had similar problem had to create new folder and run sudo mount............

[03:55] <Everflex> lilly: ask in #beryl
[03:55] <lilly> ok
[03:55] <kane77> Everflex, doesnt this do it?? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39471/

[03:57] <kane77> stef, didn't know that... :)
[03:57] <KenSentMe> I'm running ntp with ntp.ubuntu.com on two different machines, but they both have a different system time ( 5 mins difference). How can that be?
[03:58] <Maheanuu> stefg, I have been trying to get a raid5 device loaded for over 2 wks now with no joy
[03:58] <Everflex> kane77: i'll just try it...
[03:58] <stefg> Maheanuu: see the howto and 'man mdadm'
[03:58] <stefg> prolly you have to read abot lvm2, too
[03:58] <mano> meng: can't figure why.
[03:59] <Everflex> kane77: but what about the long UUID=e9af2522-1ffd-47a1-8db1-f3533645138b. can it be replaced by just /dev/hda3 in the beginning?
[03:59] <mano> meng: only thing I can think of, try a traceroute to an IP you can ping in windows but you can't in linux
[03:59] <Maheanuu> I am planning on using mdadm, but which distro, the tarball or the rpm???
[03:59] <mano> meng: maybe stg is different. Baffled, I am.
 meng: only thing I can think of, try a traceroute to an IP you can ping in windows but you can't in linux --> i can ping in both
[04:00] <stefg> Maheanuu: just sudo apt-get install mdadm
[04:00] <kane77> Everflex, I'm not sure... never used UUID...
[04:00] <Maheanuu> I am not by any way or means a linux sooper user, just an old ret. chief that is trying to learn new trix
[04:00] <meng> just that i can't do the usual things in linux
[04:01] <siv0x> How can i update the version of java i have so that i can run frostwire, I currently have java version "1.4.2"
[04:01] <Everflex> kane77, so you just use the diskname?

[04:08] <Everflex> kane77: ehh, how do i unmount hda3? it sais unmount is not a command
[04:08] <anto9us> Everflex, it's umount
[04:08] <kane77> Everflex, its spelled umount (without ')
[04:09] <Hezkore> Erm hey... does anyone know if it's easy to configure the G7 in Linux? :S
[04:09] <balutix> ah. here is the copy thingy.. i've used the guide for binary drivers on the ubuntu site and this is the commando i execute and what i recive "http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39474/"
[04:09] <pedro> Hi all
[04:09] <stefg> unix' biggest mistake.... not calling it unmount (some people say)
[04:10] <pedro> a easy and porbably stupid question.
[04:10] <Maheanuu> I have been trying to set up a raid5 array right from the start, and am beginning to believe that I should remove the raid set up in bios and then install Ubuntu and configure the software raid from the kernal and not from the bios, is this correct?
[04:10] <pedro> i had installed mediawiki via synaptic
[04:10] <GreyGhost> !ask | pedro
[04:10] <ubotu> pedro: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[04:10] <skukza> i would appear that ive some how botched language support all the text in thunar comes up as boxes
[04:10] <pedro> ant i configure with in localhost/mediawiki
[04:11] <pedro> but the folder is not in the www ?
[04:11] <BlondieNL> ildeOne: i just modified it by source-o-matic... and rerun the apt-get install.. but still didnt found it more or less...
[04:11] <dan__> Maheanuu: sounds right unless you have hardware raid
[04:11] <pedro> where is the folder ?
[04:11] <stefg> Maheanuu: That depends on the if mdadm and the fakeraid controller use compatible formats... the partion ID for soft-raid and fake-raid is different e.g.
[04:11] <Maheanuu> is there anyway to
[04:11] <Maheanuu> damn....  fingers just got washed and now I can't do anything with them'
[04:12] <Everflex> kane77: i edited fstab and used urs, except that i used the original UUID. then when i run 'sudo mount -a' it says this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/39475/
[04:12] <pedro> now when i type localhost/mediawiki he said :
[04:12] <Maheanuu> dan, then all my probs today are being caused by the bios setting of the software raid and not the linux
[04:12] <pedro> "To complete the installation, move config/LocalSettings.php to the parent directory."
[04:12] <pedro> but i dont find the parent diractory
[04:13] <pedro> ??
[04:13] <pedro> any idea?
[04:13] <stefg> Maheanuu: are you aware on the difference of fakeraid and softraid?
[04:13] <Maheanuu> No, I am not, and would like to discuss this but trying to keep up on this page is a real problem
[04:14] <nova_2> lol
[04:14] <BlondieNL> ildeOne: i just modified it by source-o-matic... and rerun the apt-get install.. but still didnt found it more or less...
[04:14] <IdleOne> how well does ubuntu handle 250gb drives? will it see it all and use it accordingly? ( had an issue couple years back with a Mandrake install and dont want it to happen again )
[04:14] <Maheanuu> stefg, is there anyway to open another window in here where we could talk without loosing track of our conversation?
[04:15] <Everflex> Maheanuu: /msg <user>
[04:15] <Maheanuu> By the time I get done typing, the comments line has moved way off screen
[04:15] <Everflex> Maheanuu: /msg <user> <message>
[04:16] <IdleOne> BlondieNL, do apt-cache search par2 and see if it finds it if not you didnt  enable universe and multiverse properly....try sudo apt-get update first then search for par2
[04:17] <stefg> Maheanuu: I dont think, i can fix your problem from here. But AFAIK the consquence of having the RAID created with the fakeraid -*hardware* controller makes it inaccesible to softraid with mdadm.
[04:17] <BlondieNL> ildeone: it finds it
[04:17] <BlondieNL> par2 - Parity Archive Volume Set, for checking and repair of files
