[05:42] <rod> I'd love a program that shows what's going on on the tty's (normally acciseble via ctrl alt f1 etc) without actually switching to these tty's
[05:42] <mwe> honey|me: I see you already have it in line 29 for backports
[05:42] <johndarkhorse> miki: you should stay out of the system tree
[05:43] <rod> So a small window in gnome should show what;s going on in the tty's
[05:43] <miki> john, im installing USB modem and i must do it
[05:43] <ratschnowski> hello, when trying to do a ./install to launch an installation script from a cd-rom, i always get: bash: ./install: /bin/sh: bad interpreter: no permission
[05:43] <ratschnowski> how can i solve that?
[05:43] <honey|me> mwe i mix them all up now
[05:43] <honey|me> mwe :(
[05:44] <miki> guy gave me comeplete files wich are much better than instll scripts, and sience he got everyting same as i do(same OS, modem and ISP) it should work for sure
[05:44] <miki> and i had many problems with install scripts
[05:44] <mwe> honey|me: all you need to do is add the multiverse keyword at the end of line 19 and 35
[05:45] <miki> but i cant copy files to /etc/ppp/
[05:46] <miki> anyone know how to copy files to /etc/ppp and /lib directories on main file system ?
[05:46] <mwe> honey|me: you can use this: http://pastebin.com/516226
[05:47] <honey|me> mwe just replace all my line in source.list with the one you gave me ?
[05:47] <Wibble-> miki: the problem is that doing that is very dangerous and could completely hose your system.  Use the install scripts - get your friend to help with those perhaps since he has obviously done it himself.
[05:47] <mwe> honey|me: that would work
[05:48] <mwe> honey|me: back up what you have though
[05:48] <mwe> honey|me: or rename it
[05:48] <johndarkhorse> honey|me: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesCliHowto
[05:49] <miki> Wibble-: he told me to do that in email, and i dont know when he is going to replay... but im guessing that it will take him awhile... he knew what hes saying tho, hes very expereinced user
[05:49] <dennis999> anybody know about postfix?
[05:50] <mwe> honey|me: well actually use this instead to have source packages for univere and multiverse available as well:http://pastebin.com/516228
[05:50] <polverari> hi there
[05:50] <Wibble-> miki: but since you are asking the question, I'm guessing that you're not.  Ubuntu is designed to help inexperienced users do the right things in the right way.  By going behind the scenes, it can very easily cause a mess which wouldn't be easy to fix up.
[05:51] <polverari> I was wondering if someone could help me about some question about partitioning
[05:51] <Turms> i have problems opening ports, i need 4662 tcp and 4672 udp opened for using amule but i run iptables -A INPUT -p TCP --destination-port 4662 -m state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT but nothing happens, i.e. if i run iptables -L i can see that the rules have been accepted but if a friend of mine do nmap of my ip they appear to be closed
[05:51] <Wibble-> ask the question polverari
[05:51] <e> is anyone OK to help with wifi issue? got a belkin usb dongle seen as modem by ubuntu.
[05:51] <seicherlbob> johndarkhorse: great! seems to work. thank you! can you tell me,where i get DivX-support? i can't find w32codecs-package
[05:51] <johndarkhorse> polverari: if you ask a question, we can
[05:51] <johndarkhorse> ubotu: tell e about wireless
[05:52] <polverari> well, is there any problem if in a dual-boot system I remove the winxp partition and resize the linux partition to take over the whole HD?
[05:52] <johndarkhorse> ubotu: tell seicherlbob about w32codecs
[05:52] <johndarkhorse> polverari: no problem at all
[05:52] <Wibble-> polverari, are you using ubuntu's boot manager? (grub) or XP's manager?
[05:52] <polverari> but I have 3 linux, partitions: /boot, swap and /
[05:52] <seicherlbob> johndarkhorse: thanks again
[05:52] <polverari> GRUB
[05:52] <johndarkhorse> polverari: you'd only be enlarging /
[05:52] <polverari> one is on hda1
[05:52] <Wibble-> then as johndarkhorse said - no problem
[05:53] <honey|me> mwe ok thank you
[05:53] <polverari> other on hda3
[05:53] <polverari> and other on hda4 or 5
[05:53] <polverari> so, when I repartition, those names will likely change
[05:53] <polverari> so, is it just a matter of changing /etc/mtab
[05:53] <polverari> or no?
[05:53] <Wibble-> you can't simply re-partition, unless you are going to reinstall too
[05:53] <e> anyone?? interesting wifi issue here. .hehe
[05:53] <Wibble-> look into parted
[05:53] <miki> Wibble-: scripts are showing errors and i cant install :(
[05:54] <mwe> honey|me: can you get mplayer now?
[05:54] <miki> USBUsage: lspci [<switches>]
[05:54] <polverari> but how about the partition names?
[05:54] <johndarkhorse> polverari: you'll be fine, nothing will change from grubs POV as far as linux is concerned
[05:54] <honey|me> mwe yes
[05:54] <Wibble-> polverari, or gparted
[05:54] <mwe> good
[05:54] <miki> Wibble-: it says that i got no USB support
[05:54] <seicherlbob> is it possible, that synaptic hang up when installing gstreamer?
[05:54] <polverari> ok, I'll try that
[05:54] <polverari> thanx Wibble
[05:54] <Wibble-> miki, then definitely, unzipping your friends scripts will cause more problems and will not solve the problem.
[05:55] <mwe> honey|me: I just noticed the 'restricted' keyword is mentioned twice on some lines. It shouldn't hurt though
[05:55] <e> Ok. I ll check forums
[05:55] <johhny_b> any bash gurus here?
[05:56] <johndarkhorse> johhny_b: just ask your question
[05:56] <seicherlbob> johhny_b: ask here or in #bash
[05:57] <johhny_b> johndarkhorse: how would i go about to create a script that would let me click on a link .mpg or .avi in my browser, and when i do that it opens the movie file not on the desktop computor i use to click the link but on a remote  server?
[05:57] <johndarkhorse> johhny_b: that doesnt sound very bash-like to me
[05:58] <johhny_b> johndarkhorse: well it would be a bash script that would just ssh -something -something -hostname command $linkname
[05:58] <johhny_b> something like that?
[05:58] <secureboot> is there any debootstrap to bootstrap ubuntu?  the one i see in the repos seems to install debian...
[05:59] <johndarkhorse> johhny_b: sounds kinda complicated, but i'm sure something can be done (you'd need to look up nautilus script synatx)
[05:59] <navarone> johnny_b cos I'm not a bash guru I huess...<s>
[05:59] <mwe> johhny_b: I doubt it's possible to make a bash script that react to clicks in your browser
[05:59] <navarone> guess*
[06:00] <Wibble->  johhny_b, associate the file types with the script, and use $0 to refer to the arguments the browser passes to the script.  The rest is up to your ssh command
[06:00] <johhny_b> if you can accociate a file to a application this would not be that hard
[06:00] <mweichert> does anyone have postgres installed?
[06:00] <_jason> johhny_b: you can
[06:01] <mweichert> I have my subnet in pg_hda.conf, but still I cannot connect remotely
[06:01] <johhny_b> well then i am not that stupid then
[06:01] <johhny_b> _jason: could you help me out?
[06:01] <kasemodz> im running a couple of websites running, right now I have to enter an ip adress to connect to however is there a program out there that would mask the ip and make the address in words??
[06:01] <mwe> mweichert: does your router forward the port and is the firewall configured to allow it?
[06:02] <kasemodz> i'm only running these websites for lan
[06:02] <_jason> johhny_b: sorry what exactly are you trying to do... I just glanced down and saw your bit about associating files ot applications
[06:02] <Wibble-> kasemodz, have a look at /etc/hosts - type the IP and the name in there, and it should work.
[06:02] <kasemodz> ok thx
[06:02] <johhny_b> _jason: well i want to be able to click on a link in my browser or whatever and be able to run a movie on my server (TVOUT)
[06:03] <kasemodz> wibble i dont have /etc/hosts
[06:03] <kasemodz> the hosts is not there
[06:03] <Davey> how can I mount a fat32 external USB drive that is mounted automatically, as chmod 777 ?
[06:04] <Wibble-> kasemodz, you add it to /etc/hosts - and you certainly should have that file (for localhost)
[06:04] <kasemodz> i see a host.txt is that it?
[06:04] <johndarkhorse> kasemodz: you have an /etc/hosts (otherwise your computer wouldnt run)
[06:04] <_jason> johhny_b: set it up command line as people before were saying and then just go to preferences in firefox and change the app to the script
[06:04] <mwe> Davey: umask 000
[06:04] <e> where is kernel source on ubuntu please? what dir is it
[06:04] <johndarkhorse> kasemodz: no, it should be /etc/hosts     not hosts.txt
[06:04] <mwe> Davey: under options
[06:04] <Davey> mwe: but its mounted automatically, its not in my fstab
[06:04] <mwe> Davey: umask=000 actually
[06:05] <Wibble-> e: /usr/src/
[06:05] <e> thanks
[06:05] <Davey> mwe: so where would I put that? :)
[06:05] <mweichert> mwe: well I don't have a firewall installed on either of the computers.
[06:05] <kasemodz> i see all this stuff- fe00::0 ip6-localnet, etc to add the host should i just put something like- <IP_ADDRESS> tightvnc
[06:05] <kasemodz> what format should i write it in?
[06:05] <e> well mine is empty!
[06:05] <Wibble-> kasemodz, exactly - new line, just like that.  do man hosts for more info on it
[06:06] <e> thats y i asked.
[06:06] <kasemodz> ok thx
[06:06] <Wibble-> e: then install the kernel sources package :)
[06:06] <mwe> Davey: I'm not sure for automount. I'd have to refer to ivman docs
[06:06] <khelsys> hi,
[06:06] <mweichert> mwe: there is a firewall that filters traffic from the WAN - do I need to change anything on it?
[06:06] <kasemodz> one more question, since there a lot ipv6t stuff if my router isnt ipv6 can iremove all that stuff will that have an affect with connection of my router
[06:06] <khelsys> what have i to install to get CC command?
[06:06] <deefzi> what should i do that java-applets would use libjsoundalsa.so for sound management? i just brutefully renaming libjsoundalsa.so to libjsound.so, but that didn't seem to give any profit.
[06:07] <Wibble-> kasemodz, if you don't have ipv6 enabled, you should be able to... but why bother? :) I'd leave it.
[06:07] <e> wibble. will do. sorry, im trying to fix wifi problem on my own here. need to install ndiswrappers and all that. thought i had kernel src by default
[06:07] <johndarkhorse> kasemodz: best to leave things alone (the ipv6 stuff isnt hurting anything)
[06:07] <Wibble-> e: no, just kernel headers I think
[06:08] <kasemodz> well wibble lately i have been having problems with wireless it finds my ssid but it cant get an ip when i do dmesg it says no ip-v6 router found. So I tried disabling it and it didnt work. So if i remove this it may work
[06:08] <cactii> Hola people!!! :)
[06:08] <cactii> How do you set file associations???
[06:09] <kasemodz> ill just do  a backup of this file if something happ but thx guys
[06:09] <honey|me> mwe can i ask you some other things ?
[06:09] <Wibble-> kasemodz, I would be quite surprised if that solved the problem
[06:09] <mwe> honey|me: just a sec but sure ...
[06:10] <jd86> Whats the name of 5.10? (sorry for the stupid question but i seem to be having trubble finding out :*()

[06:10] <jd86> frogzoo: thanks

[06:10] <cactii> Thanks _jason
[06:10] <mweichert> can anyone help me?
[06:10] <Turms> khelsys: cc is an alias for gcc therefore install gcc
[06:11] <mwe> honey|me: squirrelmail maybe
[06:11] <honey|me> mwe so a mail server with webmail , and also i might wanna try to install a php script that allows people to sing up for an email account theyself
[06:11] <jd86> Well i am looking thru a wiki on doing pxe install, and it linked to something which doesn't exist so i'm trying to find it :)
[06:11] <honey|me> mwe i hade squirrelmail before
[06:11] <_jason> khelsys: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[06:11] <Wibble-> miki, I have no idea how to get usb working if it is not working.  But you must solve that before your modem will have even a chance of working.
[06:12] <honey|me> mwe what about for a mail server ? postfix , qmail ? hat would you rec.. ?
[06:12] <miki> Wibble-: it came like that by default.... /proc/bus/usb is empty folder
[06:12] <mwe> honey|me: I like postfix
[06:13] <honey|me> mwe did yiu configure with courier - imap ?
[06:13] <nir_> i use ndiswrapper on ubuntu64, get the 'driver present, hardware present', but i cant see the wlan0
[06:13] <Wibble-> miki, perhaps check that USB is enabled in the bios.  Other than that, I have no clue.
[06:13] <miki> wibble: usb works in windows fine
[06:14] <Wibble-> miki: then you need to find someone with a better knowledge of linux usb than me
[06:14] <miki> wibble: should i have anything in proc/bus/usb ?
[06:14] <Wibble-> yes
[06:14] <Wibble-> when devices are plugged in
[06:14] <Wibble-> miki: (or possibly a "devices" file even when their not)
[06:15] <miki> wiblle-: nothing inside :(
[06:15] <Wibble-> miki: are things plugged in? :)
[06:15] <basti_> how do I use mv if I need to move many folders into another folder and overwrite everything
[06:15] <miki> Wibble-: previously i had debian, it was detecting everything but i removed it to get unbuntu instead :9
[06:15] <kasemodz> wibble i tried putting name in but it didnt work
[06:15] <miki> Wibble-: yes they are
[06:15] <kasemodz> xxx.xxx.xx.xxx tightvnc.ondemand.org
[06:15] <Wibble-> miki: Unplug USB, reboot, plug in device, type dmesg, check to see if it was detected.
[06:16] <kasemodz> dindt work
[06:16] <miki> Wibble-: i can test something tho... im now in ps2 mouse. but i can connect usb mouse under ubuntu to see if anything happens

[06:17] <basti_> I need to move many folders into another folder overwriting all files
[06:17] <Marcin_O> [sorry for my english]
[06:17] <Marcin_O> installed -> compiled
[06:18] <miki> Wibble-: fine, im rebooting now
[06:18] <Wibble-> kasemodz, check /etc/host.conf - it may need to say "hosts" before bind (or others)
[06:18] <miki> brb
[06:18] <blue-frog> basti_, cp -R folder otherfolder
[06:18] <basti_> blue-frog: I can't use mv?

[06:19] <kasemodz> this is what it says- order hosts,bind
[06:19] <kasemodz> multi on

[06:21] <kasemodz> wibble i get a reply from my ip address
[06:21] <johndarkhorse> Marcin_O: don't compile
[06:21] <bjv> :(    ubuntu server install is 350mb
[06:21] <johndarkhorse> Marcin_O: use the link i posted, and use apt-get (it's quicker)
[06:21] <Wibble-> kasemodz, your IP? or the IP of the server on your lan?
[06:21] <bjv> looks like it's back to the drawingboard
[06:21] <Marcin_O> johndarkhorse: too late :)
[06:21] <kasemodz> <IP_ADDRESS>
[06:22] <kasemodz> when i go to this website it takes me to those fake websites
[06:22] <kasemodz> those random ones
[06:22] <Wibble-> check the browsers config; it needs to bypass the proxy server for local addresses etc
[06:23] <kasemodz> im on wireless right now, and my wireless router connects to the wired router where my server is
[06:25] <kasemodz> alright wibble i tried another computer on my lan and it went to that fake website as well. Now I went to mozilla web browser on my server, and typed the address it worked

[06:43] <afd_> I'm identified to nickserv, btw
[06:43] <sam_> can someone please run me through adding kde 3.5 to apt....
[06:43] <frogzoo> jd86: mebbe check the linux documentation project for a net boot howto
[06:44] <Seveas> e, you don't have to compile ndiswrapper, it's already there if you installed ndiswrapper-utils
[06:44] <sam_> i'll love you for ever
[06:44] <Seveas> you just need to 'modprobe ndiswrapper'
[06:44] <butcherbird> afd_: proxy server..
[06:44] <jd86> frogzoo: i have network booting stuff down, i'm looking for the stuff on setting up ubuntu to serv clients... or will it do that alone?
[06:44] <e> shit.. so its installed now.. ok. let me try to move further with the instructions..
[06:44] <afd_> butcherbird: I don't use any. I have a router on my lan, though
[06:45] <huhn_2punkt0> e: I'm afraid the v2 isn't listed
[06:45] <afd_> anyway, I'll ask here
[06:45] <butcherbird> afd_: if your ip is banned. or if you dont have static ip maybe just reset modem and router
[06:45] <sam_> anyone?
[06:46] <frogzoo> jd86: it should be in the docs as well - linux doc project is pretty extensive
[06:46] <DaSkreech> Does anyone here have blackdown Java installed?
[06:46] <jd86> frogzoo: ok
[06:46] <afd_> I'm trying to determine what causes a process on my debian server to go 100% cpu. Anyway, the problem is that "top" shows all processes at 0% or 0.2% cpu usage, even though the load is 3.9
[06:46] <miki> anyone know how to install USB under ubuntu?
[06:46] <afd_> any idea on what can cause top to behave like this?
[06:46] <owner> it has usb support
[06:47] <owner> what is top doing afd_
[06:47] <miki> owner: i dont see anything in /proc/bus/usb
[06:47] <e> how do you know cpu is 100%
[06:47] <e> ?
[06:47] <afd_> it's not showing the cpu usage of processes properly.
[06:47] <afd_> e: because the load is 3.9
[06:47] <e> afd. sorry, but if top is not working how u know its cpu??
[06:47] <afd_> and after I kill the process, it goes down to 0.2
[06:48] <DustyDingo> hi
[06:48] <owner> what process is that
[06:48] <DustyDingo> i can't find a /etc/resolv.conf in ubuntu
[06:48] <DustyDingo> how i can i setup dns?
[06:48] <afd_> owner: zope
[06:48] <afd_> I'm a zope/plone programmer
[06:48] <miki> anyone know how to install USB under ubuntu? it wont work with default driver
[06:49] <owner> what usb device is that
[06:49] <miki> speedtech modem
[06:49] <miki> speedtouch***
[06:49] <e> create your own resolve.conf ?
[06:49] <e> that would work.
[06:49] <owner> is that a wireless card
[06:49] <owner> or a dialup modem
[06:49] <Hendikins> I'd use the speedtouch over ethernet. Much easier.
[06:49] <mwe> DustyDingo: you should put your dns servers in your /etc/network/interfaces file and it will update /etc/resolv.conf when you bring up the interface. or just create resolv.conf yourself
[06:49] <Hendikins> ADSL modem.
[06:50] <miki> owner: hendkins told ya :)
[06:50] <ElBarono> what happened to xscreensaver in dapper?  It's not giving me the pretty ubuntu box anymore
[06:50] <afd_> miki: I have the same at my office, I chose to pay a bit extra to get the modem with ethernet port
[06:50] <ElBarono> and the option to login as another user
[06:50] <miki> afd_: i had no choice, my ISP gave me it :(
[06:50] <mwe> ElBarono: maybe because it's stll alpha not everything is working yet
[06:51] <DustyDingo> mwe: k
[06:52] <DaSkreech> Yup They foist them out here
[06:52] <miki> Hendikins: was your installation easy and fine or did u notice any problems ?
[06:52] <Hendikins> miki: Trivial because I plugged it in to my ethernet switch.
[06:52] <miki> Hendikis: i got 330
[06:53] <castro> JOIN #lpn
[06:53] <miki> Hendikis: yah, 330 USb is very problematic... ppl hate it

[07:10] <johndarkhorse> jd86: that is an interesting question.
[07:11] <orkin> I enabled DMA, it still seems to be quite slow when closing, moving and sometimes opening dialogs; as well as in response time to menu clickes (ie i click a menu item and it takes 3-5 seconds for the popup to come up, and sometimes i have to click it again). it seems sluggish switching between applications. any advice on how to fix this or is this just linux?
[07:11] <DaSkreech> Yeah
[07:11] <mwe> orkin: it's not just linux
[07:11] <DaSkreech> mwe: That always happens?

[07:28] <sweet_kate> ok tnx _jason
[07:28] <sweet_kate> :)
[07:28] <owner> it will do a server install, then do sudo apt-get ubuntu-desktop
[07:28] <purpleheart_USMC> where can i find the file that contains the list of repositories?  synaptic won't let me look for new repositories...
[07:28] <_jason> hums: quite possible, do you use 'esd' ?
[07:28] <butcherbird> that should work you did regular install? not server or expert install right?
[07:29] <owner> or if u want kde sudo apt-get kubuntu-desktop
[07:29] <butcherbird> liam__: ^
[07:29] <owner> oops
[07:29] <hums> _jason, how do I find if I use esd ?
[07:29] <bjv> owner: there isnt a way to get the server install <300 mb is there?

[07:29] <sweet_kate> people while i m installing ubuntu-desktop, can i keep open firefox and xchat?
[07:29] <KSean> owner - Does the server install come with GRUB?

[07:29] <owner> thats how i installed ubuntu recently
[07:29] <ldy> Can I query which package use most disk space?
[07:29] <purpleheart_USMC> !dapper
[07:29] <ubotu> dapper is, like, totally, The 6.04 version of Ubuntu will be called the "Dapper Drake" release. Release date April 20, 2006. Not before. It is NOT ready for use.  Use it at your _own_ risk, when it breaks you need to be able to fix it yourself.
[07:29] <owner> then i apt getted what i wanted
[07:30] <butcherbird> liam__: youre in gnome now?
[07:30] <blito> hi to everyone!
[07:30] <liam__> butcherbird: no, regular install
[07:30] <KSean> owner, does it overwrite the current grub thing
[07:30] <ldy> Is there a way to list packages with the disk space it used?
[07:30] <KSean> because if not, it'll mess up the mbs :\
[07:30] <purpleheart_USMC> where can i find the file that contains the list of repositories?  synaptic won't let me look for new repositories...
[07:30] <liam__> butcherbird: yes gnome
[07:30] <hums> _jason, can you give the name of application. I am using xfce as my desktop and the menus are different
[07:30] <owner> ksean, you can chose if you want to install grub or not
[07:30] <johndarkhorse> ubotu: tell purpleheart_USMC about sources
[07:30] <blito> there's a problem with sl-modem-daemon ...
[07:30] <owner> but it should detect all your partitions
[07:31] <KSean> Ok, thanks :P
[07:31] <ALargeParrot> \sh_away
[07:31] <_jason> hums: ah, well esd shoudl just show up as 'esd' if you do 'ps aux | grep esd'
[07:31] <purpleheart_USMC> johndarkhorse: thanks
[07:31] <blito> bad headers...
[07:31] <KSean> Should I delete my current broken ext3 and swap partitions with PartitionMagic?
[07:31] <butcherbird> liam__: liar!
[07:31] <blito> how can i download it?
[07:31] <butcherbird> liam__: sorry lunch time good luck :)
[07:31] <AskHL> purpleheart_USMC: something like /etc/apt/sources.list
[07:31] <hums> _jason, Yes esd is listed. It is esd --no-beeps
[07:31] <e> allright guys, at the risk of sounding like im bragging> i ve installed ndiswrappers, loaded the *.inf file and ndiswrapper says the hardware is present. but my USB belking wifi modem shows up as a MODEM..
[07:32] <liam__> How do i get Ubuntu out of xserver mode?
[07:32] <hums> _jason, Yes esd is listed. It is esd -nobeeps
[07:32] <_jason> hums: you can kill it before running your program, 'killall esd', then when you are done just run it again with 'esd &'
[07:32] <blito> ... hey...
[07:32] <pdlnhrd> can someone tell me how i can force a package to reinstall because to get back to the default settings ?
[07:32] <KSean> owner, should I delete my current broken ext3 and swap partitions with partitionmagic first?
[07:32] <_jason> hums: or if for some reason you need the --nobeeps, just add that on there of course
[07:32] <mwe> e: then just dial you ISP ;)
[07:33] <e> if i only had one.. good hack though!!
[07:33] <_jason> hums: xfce might include esd on by default, I'm not familiar with it
[07:33] <liam__> How do i get Ubuntu out of xserver mode?
[07:33] <e> its not set on ETH1 i noticed, but cant change it..
[07:33] <luke_> How's it going people?
[07:33] <blito> can anybody answer me?

[07:34] <coolboy> I'm having a problem with the ubuntu 5.10 live (breezy): I can see my dvd/cd drive, my live cd is plugged in to my cdrw drive, and the dvd/cd drive doesn't work, i tried with an audio cd, i saw that it was audio (it was on the screen) but i wasn't able to open it
[07:34] <hums> _jason, is there any way for esd to be used by more than one application?
[07:34] <DarkkraD> why is ubutun
[07:34] <DarkkraD> why is ubuntu so popular
[07:34] <_jason> hums: esd is just the sound daemon, so when you kill it you will no longer be able to hear simeltaneous sounds
[07:34] <blito> luke_, if i can help you...
[07:34] <Samineru> oh i didnt download install
[07:34] <liam__> how can i get ubuntu out of xserver mode?

[07:35] <AskHL> ubotu: tell AskHL about ubotu
[07:35] <e> liam, think if you run init 4 that ll do the trick
[07:35] <hums> _jason, but it is doing exactly the opposite of what it is ment to do right? It was blocking my text to speech app from using the audio device
[07:35] <KSean> owner, should I delete my current broken ext3 and swap partitions with partitionmagic first?
[07:35] <iantec> jason in the wiki page 720 is listed as works badly.... does that mean my printer is incompatible?
[07:35] <_jason> hums: yeah, not all programs use esd

[07:36] <owner> ksean the best idea is to delete the partitions and just let ubuntu installer create them
[07:36] <KSean> lol
[07:36] <KSean> pl

[07:36] <KSean> ok*

[07:36] <dan_> ive got a major problem. my sound doesnt work. can you please help me?
[07:37] <coolboy>  I'm having a problem with the ubuntu 5.10 live (breezy): I can see my dvd/cd drive, my live cd is plugged in to my cdrw drive, and the dvd/cd drive doesn't work, i tried with an audio cd, i saw that it was audio (it was on the screen) but i wasn't able to open it

[07:40] <mwe> liam__: sudo rm /etc/rc4.d/*gdm then boot to runlevel 4
[07:40] <gepatino> liam__, if your running on runlevel N, just do 'sudo rm /etc/rcN.d/S13gdm'
[07:40] <gepatino> liam__, changing N for your runlevel number
[07:40] <e> # Default runlevel. The runlevels used by RHS are:

[07:42] <selinium> bluesign: the best solution I have found is freenx
[07:42] <luke_> Or what about changing the res of a second display?
[07:42] <gepatino> liam__, you can disable many services from services manager, the one you should set off is gdm
[07:42] <bluesign> slinium: thanks

[07:45] <Zuikaz> is the package broken?
[07:45] <_jason> Zuikaz: you're on your own with dapper, I think they renamed the /etc/X11 folder or something
[07:45] <mwe> ki4ikl: then sudo dpkg -r frostwire or whatever the name of the package is
[07:45] <mcdenyer> !ntfs
[07:45] <ubotu> I heard ntfs is the filesystem used in Windows 2000 and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions, or writing to ntfs is risky and only experimental. Reading is OK

[08:01] <ubotu> it has been said that bot abuse is a bannable offense
[08:01] <bjv> and i dont need xorg, and i do need to fit it all inside of like 150mb
[08:02] <LoPMX> ryanpg, yeah i got the same prob, no solution, well, the problem is with /var/run/pppconfig dir i think (lack of it)
[08:02] <honey|me> bjv what server install man ?
[08:02] <LoPMX> yeah better, but i have multiple files
[08:02] <jenda> bjv: look for Ubuntu-lite

[08:02] <bjv> :
[08:02] <gepatino> bjv, i thought breezy server install was w/o xorg...

[08:03] <bjv> honey|me: i did not see any options to select packages, when i did server-expert
[08:03] <mcdenyer> mwe i dled the installer
[08:03] <bjv> it just started installing to the disk
[08:03] <gepatino> bjv, i had a clean install of about 200 megs
[08:03] <gepatino> bjv, maybe i used 'base' at the bootup
[08:03] <mcdenyer> mwe, i navigated to the installer in terminal and then typed in the installed name like it told me to and it says no such command
[08:03] <bjv> *this is an 5.10 install off a regular pressed ubuntu disk
[08:04] <bjv> 'base' you say?
[08:04] <LoPMX> ppp
[08:04] <bjv> well 200 meg is alot closer to my 150 target, then 400 is
[08:04] <ryanpg> LoPMX, odd, k I'll investigate
[08:04] <gepatino> bjv, i dont remember now... maybe base or base_install or somethink like that
[08:04] <bjv> is there a web resource that lists them?
[08:05] <honey|me> bjv where did you done " server-expert " ?
[08:05] <gepatino> bjv, sorry... it was using deboostrap
[08:05] <apricot> hello
[08:05] <bjv> honey|me: after putting the disk in at the    boot:  prompt
[08:05] <gepatino> bjv, it installs just a base system
[08:05] <bjv> yeah
[08:05] <honey|me> bjv hell yeah . then you should know what packages are going to be installed
[08:06] <LaptopZZ> are there packages for gstreamer.10 in breezy?
[08:06] <honey|me> bjv its this option with ot without x ?
[08:06] <ryanpg> /etc/init.d/dns-clean LoPMX is what's creating that error message
[08:06] <bjv> honey|me: i dont know, it did not tell me what it was installing
[08:06] <mcdenyer> anyone here ever install a radeon vid card?
[08:06] <midwinter> the server install does not include x
[08:06] <bjv> just that it would expect to use 400mb, so i tried it anyway
[08:06] <honey|me> bjv you can see after man
[08:06] <honey|me> damm
[08:06] <nvez> if you did a server install just "apt-get install ubuntu-desktop"
[08:06] <LoPMX> ryanpg, hmm, checking

[08:27] <gepatino> mephis, sorry i thought you mean 'at the root'
[08:27] <p0mppu> then start mplayer from console => check errors
[08:28] <honey|me> p0mppu  i will now
[08:28] <p0mppu> metal: sure
[08:28] <coolboy> Dr_Willis: i tried ripping them, he won't open them
[08:28] <mephis> p0mppu, how can it be
[08:28] <stevr1it> hi, i need your help.

What can i do? the file lilypond seems owning to a musical writing. I wait
[08:28] <abelli> Joe[1] : bon, thank you very muc
[08:28] <abelli> h
[08:28] <mephis> i installed it myself
[08:28] <puks> Hi, does the ubuntu installer, when it sets up the user, delete a user home directory if it is already there? (i am installation over a previous linux system)
[08:28] <mephis> and there is another root account
[08:29] <puks> I would like to use a user name the same user name as my previous account on the machine
[08:29] <p0mppu> mephis: mephis how can what be?
[08:29] <coolboy> Dr_Willis: it just sees it's an audiocd , and then it's over
[08:29] <p0mppu> open up a terminal, if you have # at the end of the line, you're logged in as root
[08:29] <p0mppu> otherwise you have $
[08:29] <mephis> p0mppu, i installed it myself , why i cant be root ?
[08:29] <Dr_Willis> 'whoami' command will tell you who you are also. :P
[08:30] <mephis> p0mppu, it only shows my username
[08:30] <gepatino> mephis, if you want to be root, you should use the sudo and su commands
[08:30] <honey|me> p0mppu  mplayer = no sound  xine = no sound
[08:30] <coolboy> Dr_willis: will it be fixed when I install from install cd tomorowN
[08:30] <p0mppu> mephis: type whoami
[08:30] <p0mppu> then enter
[08:30] <honey|me> whats goin on ?
[08:30] <p0mppu> you get your loginname
[08:30] <mephis> p0mppu, it shows my username
[08:30] <Dr_Willis> coolboy,  the live cd is rather old now.. and not all that good.
[08:30] <mephis> p0mppu, yeah i can use sudo
[08:30] <stevr1it> how can help me?
[08:31] <mephis> p0mppu, but it requires password
[08:31] <p0mppu> mephis: umm tell me again, what are you really trying to do? I think I got you wrong :)
[08:31] <gepatino> mephis, by default, root doesn't have a password, so you cant login as root
[08:31] <coolboy> Dr_Willis: yes but will it be fixed when I install
[08:31] <p0mppu> honey|me: then you've got a problem with a sound server or something
[08:31] <p0mppu> probably
[08:31] <gepatino> mephis, if you want  to login as root, just do sudo passwd and give root a password
[08:31] <mephis> p0mppu,  , i m not sure i m root of my linux
[08:31] <gnomefreak> is there a gimp for beginners? (easygimp or something)?
[08:31] <honey|me> p0mppu  i could image that on my own
[08:31] <honey|me> :)
[08:31] <Dr_Willis> coolboy,  ive ripped dozens of audio cd's
[08:32] <coolboy> k
[08:32] <mcdenyer> how do i run xorg.conf?
[08:32] <gepatino> mephis, first system user is allowed to use sudo, which means you are 'almost root'
[08:32] <honey|me> p0mppu all you`re saying its nothing new to me
[08:32] <blue-frog> gepatino, not enough... missing one thing
[08:32] <p0mppu> honey|me: ps -a | grep defunc
[08:32] <stevr1it> anyone tohelp me with a crazy file?

[08:33] <gnomefreak> mcdenyer: that would be the command
[08:33] <ubotu> I haven't a clue, stevr1it
[08:33] <p0mppu> mephis: sudo = run a process with root privileges
[08:33] <honey|me> p0mppu no output
[08:33] <mcdenyer> gnomefreak, what do they mean
[08:33] <mcdenyer> gnomefreak, is that like something i have to constantly run or what?
[08:33] <p0mppu> honey|me: also check out your sound volumes aren't 0
[08:34] <p0mppu> use aumix for example
[08:34] <honey|me> p0mppu they arent
[08:34] <p0mppu> ok
[08:34] <p0mppu> and your sound card's module is loaded or is in kernel?

[08:37] <frogzoo> zyno: way way OT dude
[08:37] <jon855> I would suggest that you could try Opera browser itself, it isnt' that bad at all
[08:37] <midwinter> g00r0n, it will be in the next release of ubuntu.
[08:37] <TheCut> lol where did that come from
[08:37] <Ng> g00r0n: 1.5 - if you really want to upgrade manually see the FirefoxNewVersion wiki page
[08:37] <owner> ksean try unplugging any usb devices you have
[08:38] <owner> or turning them off
[08:38] <KSean> owner, I don't have any plugged in/turned on
[08:38] <Ng> g00r0n: ubuntu doesn't update a stable release except for security/serious bugs, otherwise it wouldn't be a stable release :)

[08:38] <hcatlin> Hey, how can I force the computer to avoid loading the xserver on startup?
[08:38] <hcatlin> And then, how can i startup xserver.
[08:38] <gnomefreak> g00r0n: not really
[08:38] <gepatino> mephis, what do you need to do?
[08:38] <_jason> g00r0n: no such thing! (there's kopete I think you can try)
[08:39] <owner> ksean how big is your hard drive
[08:39] <frogzoo> mephis: who was the user?
[08:39] <mephis> gepatino,  i want to check if there  r any users besides me and root
[08:39] <gnomefreak> depends on what client you want to chat on
[08:39] <KSean> owner - 40gb
[08:39] <Ng> hcatlin: remove the gdm/kdm/xdm init script symlink from /etc/rc2.d/ and then log into the console and run "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start" (or xdm or kdm) to start it up again
[08:39] <coolboy> when dl nvidia 3D drivers do I take IA32 or IA64
[08:39] <gepatino> mephis, run who
[08:40] <gepatino> mephis, that should show you runing users
[08:40] <ompaul> hcatlin, /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[08:40] <ompaul> hcatlin, /etc/init.d/gdm start
[08:40] <Ng> coolboy: almost certainly IA32, unless you are running the 64bit version of ubuntu
[08:40] <RobinL> wow
[08:40] <frogzoo> coolboy: ia32 unless you're running 64bit - which I doubt
[08:40] <RobinL> gnome-xchat works well now :)
[08:40] <coolboy> a k
[08:40] <gepatino> mephis, dont get confused with what you see in top
[08:40] <coolboy> thx guys
[08:40] <owner> did you let ubuntu create new partitions this time ksean
[08:40] <mephis> oh
[08:40] <KSean> owner, yes
[08:40] <gepatino> mephis, since many proceses run as designated users
[08:40] <mephis> gepatino, i see
[08:40] <mcdenyer> i just installed an ati driver now how do i know if it worked ?
[08:40] <mephis> thank you
[08:40] <owner> try playing a game mcdenyar
[08:40] <ompaul> hcatlin, there are sevearl ways care to tell us what you actually want to do when X is off and maybe we can help you not turn it off but get better advantage
[08:40] <midwinter> mcdenyer, glxgears -printfps
[08:41] <dan_> ive got a big problem. my sound doesnt work. can you please help me?
[08:41] <ompaul> midwinter, does that not come with a I know this is not a benchmark or something
[08:41] <hcatlin> ompaul: well, i'm trying to get my dual monitors to work
[08:41] <gepatino> mephis, even if you cant login as root, the init process always run as root
[08:41] <hcatlin> ompaul: last time, i made a mistake, and it froze on startup every time.
[08:41] <frogzoo> mcdenyer: fgl_glxgears mebbe ? (for fglrx)
[08:41] <hcatlin> ompaul: so i read somewhere its good to not auto-start xserver when you boot
[08:41] <ompaul> hcatlin, that was 10 years ago
[08:41] <hcatlin> ompaul: so if there is mistake, you can fix it on the command line
[08:41] <midwinter> ompaul, sure the long way I cant remember offhand
[08:42] <midwinter> !glxgears
[08:42] <ubotu> glxgears is, like, To display the FPS type "glxgears -iacknowledgethatthistoolisnotabenchmark"
[08:42] <hcatlin> ompaul: what do you mean?
[08:42] <owner> hcatlin, how do you use linux then
[08:42] <mephis> another question , what is crontab
[08:42] <Dr_Willis> i think people sould submit patches for that :P
[08:42] <mephis> it shows me crontab (1)          - maintain crontab files for individual users (V3)
[08:42] <mephis> crontab (5)          - tables for driving cron
[08:42] <mcdenyer> frogzoo, i did that and i just see this wierd cube with gears on it?
[08:42] <hcatlin> owner: ummm... what do you mean how do i use linux?
[08:42] <ompaul> hcatlin, not starting X - the norm is to do it now once you have it set up 10 years ago it was a thing of under powered machines
[08:42] <mephis> but i dun understand
[08:42] <frogzoo> mephis: crontab is a schedule of jobs run by cron daemon
[08:42] <mcdenyer> frogzoo, does that meen it worked lol?
[08:42] <KSean> Can someone help me? Ubuntu won't install, I've tried linux noapic, I've tried installing the server then using sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop and I get an I/O error :S
[08:43] <frogzoo> mcdenyer: yep, success
[08:43] <Joe[1] > mephis type man crontab or info crontab
[08:43] <hcatlin> ompaul: right, once i am certain my xorg.conf isn't going to be broken, i will turn it back off
[08:43] <midwinter> mcdenyer, you should see output in your terminal
[08:43] <mcdenyer> frogzoo, what should the fps be around?
[08:43] <ompaul> hcatlin, consider installing this program : sudp apt-get install bum and running it, it is the boot up manager
[08:43] <hcatlin> ah.
[08:43] <Ng> hcatlin: if you just want to disable it while you're testing, what I suggested earlier will be fine, and you can recreate the symlink when it's working
[08:43] <frogzoo> KSean: it should be no=acpi
[08:43] <mcdenyer> midwinter, yeah i do what should my fps be around?
[08:43] <owner> ksean i got the same error when i plug in my canon usb printer
[08:43] <midwinter> mcdenyer, thousands
[08:43] <ompaul> hcatlin, it can be used to sort out all sorts of stuff
[08:43] <owner> but it happens all the time
[08:43] <KSean> frogzoo
[08:44] <JDigital> Hey guys, I think I turned off my swap partition by accident, it doesn't show up in df -h any more
[08:44] <KSean> so at the boot i type linux no=acpi?
[08:44] <ompaul> JDigital, swapoff swapon
[08:44] <frogzoo> KSean: yes, correct
[08:44] <gepatino> JDigital, use swapon
[08:44] <hcatlin> Will do.
[08:44] <owner> yes thats right ksean
[08:44] <Ng> JDigital: swap doesn't show up in df -h because it's not mounted as such
[08:44] <mcdenyer> midwinter, ok the first ten read were around 500 fps and now there in the 1000s
[08:44] <KSean> ok,thanks
[08:44] <ompaul> JDigital, type free to find out if it is
[08:44] <mephis> another question :D , why linux and unix are so alike
[08:44] <hcatlin> thanks guys... restart time!
[08:44] <KSean> hopefully this will work lol
[08:44] <Ng> JDigital: free will tell you how much swap you have currently
[08:44] <KSean> mephis, because linux is based off unix
[08:44] <JDigital> Swap:      1204824     380760     824064
[08:44] <mephis> they use almost the same command
[08:44] <ompaul> mephis, the posix standaars
[08:44] <mephis> oh
[08:45] <gepatino> mephis, they are cousins :P
[08:45] <JDigital> Hey, I guess it turned itself back on.
[08:45] <mephis> ompaul,  what is posix standard ?
[08:45] <frogzoo> mephis: there's also the posix standard which they both comply with
[08:45] <Joe[1] > mephis check out http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux
[08:45] <midwinter> mcdenyer, that's okay if the hardware is oldish (I get 1800)
[08:45] <Blippe> mephis, like macos and bsd and linux and unix
[08:45] <mcdenyer> midwinter, im running on a radeon 9600xt
[08:45] <KSean> Ok, bbl, gonna try installing Ubuntu again :)
[08:45] <Elegantbasura> Hey there
[08:45] <mephis> oh
[08:45] <mcdenyer> midwinter, so its not the best
[08:45] <Elegantbasura> Anybody from NM online?
[08:46] <mcdenyer> midwinter, as long as its doing whats its cabable of
[08:46] <mephis> what is posix standard ,pls give mne any link :D
[08:46] <mcdenyer> midwinter, hey how do i run corg config again i forgot lol
[08:46] <gnomefreak> what is the command for checking rendering?
[08:46] <Ng> mephis: google for it
[08:46] <ompaul> mephis, a set of standards, best to get a web definition like this one http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/POSIX
[08:46] <gnomefreak> i think mcdenyer could use to check rendering
[08:46] <JDigital> # <file system> <mount point>   <type>  <options>       <dump>  <pass>
[08:46] <JDigital> /dev/hdd6       none            swap    sw              0       0
[08:46] <mcdenyer> gnomefreak, ?
[08:46] <JDigital> is the swap meant to have no mount point
[08:47] <mcdenyer> gnomefreak, should i use framebuffer?
[08:47] <miki> ph8: you there?
[08:47] <Ng> JDigital: yes, swap isn't mounted like a filesystem
[08:47] <Dr_Willis> JDigital,  correct
[08:47] <JDigital> okay
[08:47] <mcdenyer> should i use framebuffer?
[08:47] <gnomefreak> mcdenyer: i dont think you need it
[08:47] <JDigital> Anyone know what's eating all my memory then? gam_server seems to be eating like half of it.
[08:48] <miki> i need hep with USB, "lsmod | grep usb" shows drivers but i dont see anything in /proc/bus/usb
[08:48] <gnomefreak> there is a comand that will see if rendering is on or off that should tell you if its working
[08:48] <miki> i need hep with USB, "lsmod | grep usb" shows drivers but i dont see anything in /proc/bus/usb... also when im doing smth like: "modprobe usb-ohci" im getting: FATAL
[08:48] <Seveas> gnomefreak, glxinfo
[08:48] <gepatino> JDigital, if you want to see how much memory a process is using, try top or gnome-monitor
[08:48] <Ng> gnomefreak: glxinfo gives quite a lot of informaion (especially lines containing "vendor" or "direct rendering")
[08:48] <gnomefreak> ty Seveas
[08:48] <Ng> hey Seveas ;)

[08:52] <elegantbasura> thanks, know if any of those folks hang out here?
[08:52] <ompaul> lug is linux users groups
[08:52] <Ng> Elektrochelovek: plus the bits that make up the packaging

[08:53] <ompaul> _jason, I was working on that :)
[08:53] <_jason> ompaul: ah okay, yours looks nice anyway :)
[08:53] <ompaul> mephis, it is the command to start the bot querying its database
[08:54] <Ng> Elektrochelovek: it integrates better wiht the desktop, so things might break a bit if you just compile your own vanilla kernel.org kernel
[08:54] <MWettendorff> Is there a program that i can use to monitor my system resourses??
[08:54] <mephis> !lug

[09:00] <butcherbird> desu: define experienced
[09:00] <PuppiesOnAcid> Ubuntu is the best thing that has ever happened to my computer.
[09:00] <Ng> MWettendorff: probably the quickest option is to right click on a blank section of the panel at the edge of the screen and choose Add, then scroll down to System & Hardware and pick the System MOnitor applet and add that, then right click on it and pick properties to configure what to monitor
[09:00] <PuppiesOnAcid> Everything just works, including my printer and sound card.
[09:00] <rebecca> hi
[09:00] <PuppiesOnAcid> This is so awesome.
[09:00] <desu> butcherbird: just the basics i guess o.o i need some help with this intro program im making
[09:01] <butcherbird> desu: ok whats your first question
[09:01] <rambo3> lol what a joke. dont use num-lock with kde
[09:01] <[iago] > anyone know the command to mount a mac partition? mount -t hfsplus /dev/hda1 /mnt/hda1 isn't working for some reason
[09:01] <desu> butcherbird: like ok the purpose of it is to output position at 0, 1, 2, 3 ,4 5 seconds
[09:02] <desu> butcherbird: and u input 4 variables like x position, y position, x velocity, y velocity
[09:02] <Joe[1] > ng thats for your long answer I was to lazy to type
[09:02] <MWettendorff> Ng, hmm.. aint there a program, that can show it in a bigger window??
[09:02] <Joe[1] > trying to find link
[09:03] <mwe> [iago] : errors
[09:04] <MWettendorff> Ng, btw, thanks for the answer..
[09:04] <PuppiesOnAcid> Is there a good program that allows editing over FTP?
[09:04] <mwe> PuppiesOnAcid: editing over ftp?
[09:04] <[iago] > mwe: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock
[09:04] <PuppiesOnAcid> Yeah, so I don't have to constantly upload files.
[09:04] <mephis> pureftpd i think
[09:04] <Joe[1] > puppies -- you mean HTML editor?
[09:04] <Ng> MWettendorff: sure, the big brother of that applet is in the Applications->System Tools menu, or you should install something like gkrellm or the things other people suggested above
[09:05] <PuppiesOnAcid> Joe[1] : Yeah, I suppose you could say that.
[09:05] <mephis> PuppiesOnAcid, try pureftpd in the synaptic
[09:05] <mwe> [iago] : doesn't sound good. what's fdisk -l /dev/hda say?
[09:05] <PuppiesOnAcid> But I want the FTP transactions to be transparent.
[09:05] <[iago] > mwe: i'm running the live cd on my powerbook, i've modprobe'd hfsplus
[09:05] <mcdenyer> gnomefreak, it wierd when i ran xorg config  i selected all the screen resolutions and i restarted but i still dont have acess to those screen resolutions
[09:05] <Joe[1] > puppies -- or a ftp client?
[09:05] !lilo:*! added a faq on webchat access to freenode: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#webchat
[09:05] <[iago] > mwe: aha! the system drive is on hda3
[09:05] <stiki> what program can i use to change channels on my tv tuner, i can get output using mplayer cmdline but is there a nice frontend for tuning
[09:05] <FJ_Sanchez> hi
[09:05] <mephis> PuppiesOnAcid, put it at background
[09:05] <mcdenyer> gnomefreak, could it be because i switch to fxgrl?
[09:06] <Ng> PuppiesOnAcid: you could connect to the ftp server through the Places menu and use something that understands those gnome mounted volumes to edit, but you'll still be transferring the file I suspect
[09:06] <MWettendorff> Ng, what program, do you fell is the best to use??
[09:06] <mcdenyer> when i try to play media off the net the sounds doesnt work half the time and the video freewze like halfway thourgh
[09:07] <Ng> MWettendorff: if you want something that will sit there all the time and show lots of information in a fairly small space, gkrellm, otherwise System Monitor in the applications menu
[09:07] <mwe> mcdenyer: you mean fglrx?
[09:07] <mcdenyer> mwe yep
[09:07] <Ng> MWettendorff: but I would encourage you to play with all of them and get a feel for which is best for you, if you have the time :)
[09:07] <mcdenyer> !ntfs
[09:07] <ubotu> from memory, ntfs is the filesystem used in Windows 2000 and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions, or writing to ntfs is risky and only experimental. Reading is OK

[09:14] <benplaut> the name-change of xorg in dapper just happened, right? it's safe for an upgrade to remove xserver-xorg?

[09:36] <crimsun> Mr: what does it do, then?
[09:36] <sethk> chrisss, that's because the owner is root
[09:36] <sethk> chrisss, you have to use the mount options uid= and gid=
[09:36] <KSean> sethk, I think 10gb is enough :S
[09:36] <sethk> chrisss, do   man mount    search for ntfs options
[09:36] <KSean> is it?

[09:44] <eyajuda> So sorry ...i need some one to help me figure what i am doing wrongly...
[09:44] <Mr> crimsun: well, if nothing is wrong, why can't two different applications running have sound playing
[09:44] <soundray> KSean, I was afraid to suggest it, but I think Terminus is right...
[09:44] <Mr> crimsun: EG firefox, and an Mp3
[09:44] <KSean> :s
[09:44] <KSean> Hmm
[09:44] <crimsun> Mr: if an application uses /dev/dsp (OSS or its emulation), then no ALSA apps can play simultaneously.

[09:45] <sethk> KSean, no
[09:45] <Terminus> KSean: the I/O errors sound fishy too so i'm guessing it has something to do with either your cable or IDE controller. :/

[09:45] <crimsun> Mr: if you want to use firefox and have multiple ALSA apps play sound, then you'll need to wrap firefox with alsa-oss
[09:45] <sethk> KSean, does it ask you to put the cd in when you do the apt-get?
[09:45] <KSean> Yes
[09:45] <Nivko> Hi, knows somone a good control panel for a webserver? No webmin please..
[09:45] <molotov_> I'm accessing my Ubuntu machine via XP using vncserver, but when I connect there are a lot of icons missing (desktop, recycle bin, show desktop icon, all files and filders have the same icon).
[09:45] <cyphase> soundray, unattended
[09:45] <sethk> KSean, you can probably get around it by removing the CD references from your list of repositories
[09:46] <lin_n00b> hey everyone, i just mounted my windows drive to my 2nd(linux) drive, but when i cannot open the folder, and it says that i do not have the permissions necessary, can anybody help???
[09:46] <sethk> KSean, that will force it to get the stuff from the 'net
[09:46] <Nivko> Hi, knows somone a good control panel for a webserver? No webmin please..
[09:46] <crimsun> Mr: you'll also need to: echo "FIREFOX_DSP=none" >> ~/.mozilla-firefoxrc
[09:46] <KSean> Ok
[09:46] <cyphase> sounray, but multiple machines might be nice too
[09:46] <KSean> I'm fine with that :P
[09:46] <KSean> How would I do it?
[09:46] <Joe[1] > eyajuda give it a try
[09:46] <Nivko> Hi, knows somone a good FREE control panel for a webserver? No webmin please..
[09:46] <eyajuda> what application do you suggest i give a try>
[09:46] <metal> "Change the DefaultDepth to what you would want it to be, 16 (65536 colors) or 24 (16M colors)."
[09:47] <Terminus> oooh... so KSean already has ubuntu installed through the server option... i didn't think i was that drunk. lol
[09:47] <metal> cant i use 32?
[09:47] <crimsun> Mr: so install alsa-oss from universe, make that change to ~/.mozilla-firefoxrc, then try ``aoss firefox'' and multiple ALSA apps
[09:47] <sethk> someone tell ksean how to edit his list of repositories to get rid of cd references
[09:47] <Joe[1] > nivko u checkout apache.org
[09:47] <hcatlin> Nivko: You mean like cpanel?
[09:47] <sethk> Terminus, you probably know that
[09:47] <Joe[1] > nivko u running apache right?
[09:47] <Nivko> hcatlin: for cpanel i must pay
[09:47] <soundray> cyphase, the install is actually fairly quick and not very interactive. For multiple machines, I'd suggest using partimage.
[09:47] <Nivko> Joe[1]  yep
[09:47] <Terminus> KSean: edit /etc/apt/sources.list and remove all cd references. :)
[09:47] <gnomefreak> .png is the suggested format for pics right?
[09:47] <dsl__> Wasup gents
[09:47] <KSean> How do I edit it in the server thing?
[09:47] <KSean> :S
[09:47] <Terminus> retain the archive repos though. :)
[09:48] <Terminus> KSean: try using nano. :)
[09:48] <KSean> Nano? :S
[09:48] <Terminus> i'm tempted to suggest vi. lol.
[09:48] <molotov_> ghomefreak: depends on what you want. It's best for somethings, but not for others.
[09:48] <cyphase> soundray, i know it isn't very interactive..
[09:48] <eyajuda> Joe I thought u had wanted to help?
[09:48] <Terminus> KSean: sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:48] <KSean> I'm new to Linux lol :\
[09:48] <metal> help mee :)
[09:48] <KSean> Ok
[09:48] <cyphase> but still, if i can do it completely automatic, it would be good
[09:48] <soundray> cyphase, if you want it quicker, you can do a server install and add on ubuntu-desktop afterwards.
[09:48] <Nivko> Joe[1] : Im runnning Apache2 + PHP4 + MySQL4.3.x
[09:48] <KSean> Then what should I remove? Every line with /cdrom in it?
[09:48] <Terminus> KSean: get ready for some command line stuff then. :)
[09:48] <KSean> Argh :S
[09:49] <Terminus> KSean: yeah... to be safe, don't delete them, just comment them out with a hash. :)
[09:49] <gnomefreak> i just made a desktop image and im not sure on how to save it (what format)
[09:49] <Terminus> where hash = #
[09:49] <KSean> ok
[09:49] <cyphase> yea, i know..
[09:49] <eyajuda> Is there any other application I can try..
[09:49] <cyphase> but is there a way to do it comletely automatic?
[09:49] <cyphase> completely*
[09:49] <KSean> I'll try that now :P thanks
