[12:09] <JohnFlux_> BluesKaj: use k3b anyway :)
[12:09] <Goop2> my screen resolution is 1280x854, but its zoomed in to 640x480.. anyone know how to fix that?
[12:10] <JohnFlux_> Goop2: press alt-f2   and type "krandrtray"
[12:11] <BluesKaj> no JohnFlux_, I see cdroast in the media list but when I launch it a dailog box tells me: "no root configuration found or not readable. The superuser mustand configure xcdroast first !
[12:11] <JohnFlux_> Goop2: that will give you an applet thing in the systray
[12:11] <JohnFlux_> BluesKaj: dunno.  what's wrong with k3b? :)
[12:11] <BluesKaj> super user must start and...
[12:11] <JohnFlux_> Goop2: that should let you change the resolution
[12:12] <Goop2> JohnFlux: its not the resolution, its zoomed in
[12:12] <BluesKaj> dunno . I . djust like to see what it does :)
[12:12] <JohnFlux_> Goop2: oh. press  ctrl+alt+plus
[12:12] <JohnFlux_> the plus on the numpad
[12:12] <JohnFlux_> Goop2: press alt-f2   then type in xcdroast, but don't press enter
[12:12] <Darko8472> I have a question, but I'm not in Kubuntu right now - it's on a second HD for my laptop, and I swap them out as and when needed... I can't seem to get my wifi working at all. Laptop is a Dell Inspiron 1300 (yeah, I know, Dell), with a Dell Wireless 1370 WLAN Mini-PCI Card. I've tried manually editing the SSID/gateway etc, but it doesn't seem to want to enable :/ Any ideas? Bearing in mind I can't test them right away
[12:12] <JohnFlux_> Goop2: click options, and then chose user, and run as root
[12:12] <JohnFlux_> Goop2: oh wait no
[12:13] <JohnFlux_> Goop2: press alt-f2   and then type in ksudo xcdroast
[12:13] <JohnFlux_> and press enter
[12:14] <Goop2> johnflux: it says it cant run
[12:14] <JohnFlux_> doh
[12:14] <JohnFlux_> kdesu  xcdroast
[12:14] <JohnFlux_> sorry
[12:14] <Goop2> johnflux: ctrl-alt-+ wont do anything either
[12:15] <JohnFlux_> Goop2: it doesn't change the resolution at all?
[12:15] <Goop2> nope
[12:15] <JohnFlux_> Goop2: can you use the console?
[12:16] <Goop2> johnflux: konsole? yeah
[12:16] <JohnFlux_> i'm sure you can do this from the gui, but I've never looked
[12:16] <JohnFlux_> it's easier for me to do via konsole ;)
[12:16] <Goop2> ok :D
[12:16] <JohnFlux_> Goop2: run konsole, then run:    joe /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:17] <JohnFlux_> Goop2: run konsole, then run:    editor /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:17] <JohnFlux_> i don't think it comes with joe :)
[12:17] <geneo93> nano you mean
[12:17] <Garoboldy> instead of using the apt gui. are we able to search and add repo addresses. or is it isafer to use the gui?
[12:17] <Goop2> hmmm.. Im thinking I should prolly put "jed" in instead? :P
[12:17] <JohnFlux_> Goop2: nano, editor, jed    whatever you like
[12:18] <JohnFlux_> oh waits
[12:18] <JohnFlux_> argh
[12:18] <Goop2> hehe
[12:18] <JohnFlux_> Goop2: sudo  editor /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:18] <JohnFlux_> rather :-)
[12:18] <Goop2> ok
[12:18] <JohnFlux_> Garoboldy: you can add them in the /etc/apt/sources.list  directly if you want
[12:18] <BluesKaj> configged xcdroast in synaptic
[12:19] <JohnFlux_> Goop2: then go to the Section "Screen"
[12:19] <BluesKaj> mostly for scsi drives by the look of it
[12:19] <JohnFlux_> Goop2: what resolutions does it have?
[12:19] <Goop2> johnflux: it says command not found
[12:20] <JohnFlux_> Goop2: sudo nano  /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:20] <JohnFlux_> Goop2: that should work
[12:20] <Goop2> ok I was thinkin I was suposed to put in my account name :P
[12:20] <JohnFlux_> :-)
[12:21] <Lacerta> what the..? my internet just started working
[12:21] <Garoboldy> johnFlux_, TY for the file location. is there a proper standard or are we able to just add the address. Im seeing deb before most of them and dapper/main
[12:22] <Goop2> johnflux: I dont see "screen"
[12:23] <JohnFlux_> Goop2: if you use the up and down arrows to scroll around, you should see  a:      Section "Screen"
[12:23] <JohnFlux_> Goop2: what video card do you have?
[12:24] <Goop2> johnflux: NVIDIA GeForce 4 MX
[12:24] <JohnFlux_> do you have the nvidia driver?
[12:24] <JohnFlux_> !nvidia
[12:24] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:25] <Goop2> I wouldent know realy... Im new to Linux
[12:25] <Lord_Athur> hi all
[12:25] <JohnFlux_> Goop2: no problem
[12:25] <Goop2> probabaly not I would asume
[12:25] <JohnFlux_> Goop2: the problem here is that nvidia do not allow us to ship with their drivers
[12:26] <JohnFlux_> Goop2: it's a really big problem
[12:26] <JohnFlux_> Goop2: but, the good news is that it's easy to install them :)
[12:26] <Goop2> johnflux: ok good :)
[12:26] <VooDoo> hello
[12:26] <JohnFlux_> just close that konsole
[12:26] <uranther> will volume groups erase all the stuff i already have on my harddrives?
[12:27] <JohnFlux_> uranther: if you have to ask, i wouldn't play about it
[12:27] <Goop2> johnflux: klozed
[12:27] <JohnFlux_> Goop2: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[12:27] <JohnFlux_> ;)
[12:27] <uranther> :/
[12:27] <JohnFlux_> uranther: what do you want to do?
[12:27] <Lacerta> what does this "timestamp too far in the future:" mean and why does it prevent me using some apps?
[12:28] <uranther> i have 3 harddrives, 2 of which have data on them that i want to keep
[12:28] <uranther> and i just noticed this volume group thing that you can do
[12:28] <JohnFlux_> Lacerta: what time does your computer think it is? :)
[12:28] <Lacerta> sudo: timestamp too far in the future: Jul 30 04:14:41 2006
[12:28] <Goop2> uranther: 3 hard drives?! thats possible??
[12:28] <Lacerta> the clock is 1:28
[12:29] <uranther> Goop2: actually i have 4
[12:29] <Goop2> uranther: thats awsome :D
[12:29] <edwardf> i just installed kubuntu, and want to add packages, but in adept installer the packages i want show up as grey icons and are unselectable; why is this?
[12:29] <uranther> :D
[12:29] <JohnFlux_> Goop2: you can have 2 hard drives per ide channel.  most motherboards have 2 or 3 channels
[12:29] <JohnFlux_> Goop2: "hard drive or cd/dvd drive"
[12:30] <Goop2> ooooh
[12:30] <Goop2> I have a dvd and cdrw
[12:30] <JohnFlux_> Lacerta: hmm dunno
[12:30] <Goop2> and 2 ide cables
[12:32] <psynth> iltaa
[12:33] <uranther> i have an PCI IDE controller card..
[12:33] <uranther> i could have 3 more harddrives
[12:33] <uranther> but i have no where to put them
[12:33] <Goop2> wow..
[12:33] <Lacerta> iltaa psynth
[12:33] <Goop2> that would be alot of space
[12:33] <psynth> i need some help with mounting
[12:34] <Goop2> johnflux: does Drake have synaptic?
[12:34] <psynth> i get this error message when trying to mount a fat32 partition: mount: can't find /dev/hdb5 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[12:35] <uranther> add it then :)
[12:35] <psynth> uh, im such a newbie, could you be a bit more specific ?
[12:36] <uranther> edit your /etc/fstab file and add /dev/hdb5
[12:36] <psynth> And i really tried to find this information in the web and manuals with no luck so far
[12:36] <uranther> make it similar to your other hdd
[12:37] <Goop2> johnflux?
[12:37] <Martijn81> Goop2: yeah dapper has Synaptec, but kubuntu dapper comes with adept standard so you might want to check that out first
[12:38] <Martijn81> * synaptic
[12:39] <edwardf> i tried to install synaptic (because i like it better) through adept installer, but it adept shows it as a grey, unselectable icon
[12:40] <Goop2> never thought of that.. its letting me install it
[12:42] <San> hey
[12:43] <San> could someone point me in the direction on how to install a theme in kubuntu please?
[12:45] <ubuntu> selam
[12:51] <HAMMERSWIFE> hi all ubuntu user here ya know the file browser where it shows file system,etc
[12:51] <HAMMERSWIFE> whats the path in there to get to the xchat folders,etc
[12:52] <HAMMERSWIFE> no one in ubuntu will tell me and been tehre half hour
[12:52] <crimsun> what do you mean by "xchat folders"?
[12:52] <HAMMERSWIFE> i wanna get to the d/l folder
[12:52] <Hawkwind> HAMMERSWIFE: ~/.xchat2
[12:52] <HAMMERSWIFE> ussing file syste,
[12:52] <ubuntu> HAMMERSWIFE: h'
[12:52] <ubuntu> hi
[12:52] <HAMMERSWIFE> hi
[12:52] <Hawkwind> HAMMERSWIFE: So for example, /home/hammer/.xchat2/downloads
[12:53] <ubuntu> Sysinfo for 'ubuntu': Linux 2.6.15-23-386 running KDE 3.5.2, CPU: PentiumIII(Katmai) at 501 MHz (1003 bogomips), , RAM: 303/313MB, 95 proc's, 14.0min up
[12:53] <HAMMERSWIFE> exactly
[12:53] <Hawkwind> HAMMERSWIFE: Assuming that 'hammer' is your system users name
[12:53] <HAMMERSWIFE> but cant find it in browser
[12:53] <Hawkwind> HAMMERSWIFE: It's a hidden directory
[12:53] <Hawkwind> HAMMERSWIFE: Anything that starts with a . is a hidden directory, so therefore ~/.xchat2 is hidden
[12:53] <HAMMERSWIFE> i seletced view hidden files
[12:53] <HAMMERSWIFE> :/
[12:54] <dr_willis_> odd... my mouse is all moving sluggishly
[12:54] <ubuntu>  02:03:32 up 15 min,  7 users,  load average: 0.32, 0.57, 0.55
[12:54] <Hawkwind> HAMMERSWIFE: Have you installed Xchat, and have you used it atleast once ?
[12:54] <dr_willis_> hidden is a relative term. :P
[12:54] <HAMMERSWIFE> yes im on it now
[12:54] <Hawkwind> HAMMERSWIFE: Then it's there, trust me
[12:54] <ubuntu> Sun Jul 30 02:03:51 UTC 2006
[12:54] <HAMMERSWIFE> its all i use
[12:54] <edwardf> is there a way to 'clone' user settings (i want to create multiple users with the same theme and the same basic desktop settings and panels)
[12:54] <Hawkwind> HAMMERSWIFE: In a konsole type:  cd ~/.xchat2
[12:54] <HAMMERSWIFE> i know it is but i wanna get to it so i can grab my d/l out of the folder
[12:54] <Hawkwind> HAMMERSWIFE: Then type: ls
[12:54] <slow-motion> n8
[12:55] <Hawkwind> HAMMERSWIFE: You using Konqueror ?
[12:55] <HAMMERSWIFE> fire fox
[12:55] <HAMMERSWIFE> where would i find that 1 ya mentioned?
[12:55] <Hawkwind> HAMMERSWIFE: Ummmm firefox isn't a file manager
[12:56] <dr_willis_> :)
[12:56] <Hawkwind> HAMMERSWIFE: Hit alt-f2 and type konqueror  or it should be on your panel or even in your menus
[12:56] <HAMMERSWIFE> guess i dont have it
[12:56] <HAMMERSWIFE> ok so how do i get it?
[12:56] <Hawkwind> HAMMERSWIFE: You using KDE ?
[12:56] <HAMMERSWIFE> i think
[12:56] <Hawkwind> HAMMERSWIFE: Or is KDE installed ?
[12:56] <Hawkwind> You think ?
[12:57] <HAMMERSWIFE> i believe so
[12:57] <Hawkwind> If you are sitting at the computer I surely hope you know what you're using
[12:57] <HAMMERSWIFE> yes kde desktop
[12:57] <dr_willis_> is there a K in the start menu button? :P
[12:57] <Hawkwind> HAMMERSWIFE: Then you have konqueror installed I'm sure
[12:57] <Hawkwind> HAMMERSWIFE: sudo apt-get install konqueror   <~~~Type that from a konsole
[12:57] <HAMMERSWIFE> it didnt pop up on run command\
[12:58] <sophie_> dr_willis_: no there seems to be a figure with two sticks opposite at 45 degrees
[12:58] <HAMMERSWIFE> wasnt installed getting it now
[12:58] <HAMMERSWIFE> explains why couldnt run it
[01:00] <ben_> hi guys
[01:01] <HAMMERSWIFE>  konqueror is installed ok wht to type in for my xchat?
[01:01] <ben_> its linuxd00d from the ubuntu forum
[01:02] <linuxd00d> Hey
[01:02] <dr_willis_> it should show up in the menus now.
[01:02] <linuxd00d> hey guys, i need a bit of noob help
[01:02] <Hawkwind> HAMMERSWIFE: Same thing we told you earlier
[01:02] <dr_willis_> Oh?
[01:02] <dr_willis_> !ask
[01:03] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[01:03] <Hawkwind> dr_willis_: But......But.....I want to ask if I can ask first, just to make sure I can ask before I ask and get in trouble :P
[01:03] <linuxd00d> :S
[01:04] <linuxd00d> XD
[01:04] <dr_willis_> Hawkwind,  asking about asking to ask - is ok.
[01:04] <dr_willis_> :P
[01:04] <dr_willis_> asking about A/S/L  is a big NO NO. however
[01:04] <dr_willis_> :P
[01:04] <dr_willis_> S/A/L ?
[01:04] <dr_willis_> :)

[01:04] <HAMMERSWIFE> ok found what i wanted
[01:05] <HAMMERSWIFE> where do i find koqueror so i can paste to desktop
[01:05] <linuxd00d> and i would like to login as root but i dun kno the password, i left the install to do its own thing in text mode
[01:05] <ubuntu> linuxd00d: i little a speak english
[01:05] <Hawkwind> HAMMERSWIFE: Click on the Home icon
[01:05] <Hawkwind> linuxd00d: sudo
[01:06] <linuxd00d> sudo
[01:06] <Hawkwind> linuxd00d: There is no root account by default, it's all done with sudo
[01:06] <linuxd00d> so could u give me a little tutorial
[01:06] <Hawkwind> linuxd00d: You can however create a traditional root account real quick by typing: sudo passwd
[01:06] <dr_willis_> sudo command to run as root
[01:06] <Hawkwind> Tutorial on what ?
[01:06] <dr_willis_> !sudo
[01:06] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[01:06] <linuxd00d> cheers guys
[01:07] <Hawkwind> If you want something done as root, type 'sudo' before the command.  </tutorial>
[01:07] <BluesKaj> su su sudio :)
[01:07] <dr_willis_> sudo sudo su
[01:07] <dr_willis_> :)
[01:07] <dr_willis_> sudo cd
[01:08] <BluesKaj> phil collins drum phrase
[01:08] <dr_willis_> But take a Look at him now....
[01:08] <dr_willis_> Hes just standing there....
[01:08] <linuxd00d> oh
[01:08] <BluesKaj> not a fan by any means dr_willis_
[01:08] <linuxd00d> i understand
[01:08] <dr_willis_> Old and Bald.. and  :) thats about all i can think of.. Heh
[01:08] <dr_willis_> All these old singers look in VERY bad shape.
[01:09] <BluesKaj> that's me too , but I still aint afan :)
[01:09] <linuxd00d> so basically ubuntu doesnt want people to F*^k things up
[01:09] <HAMMERSWIFE> heck with it saved alt f2 on txt to access it
[01:09] <HAMMERSWIFE> long as i can get into it dont matter
[01:09] <HAMMERSWIFE> whats the best zipping utility for ubuntu?
[01:09] <BluesKaj> there's lots of good help here linuxd00d ...just gotta have some patience :)
[01:10] <linuxd00d> cheers man
[01:10] <linuxd00d> well everyone
[01:10] <ubuntu> linuxd00d: i dont
[01:10] <dr_willis_> Many of Ubuntu 'oddities' are done for security reasons.
[01:10] <linuxd00d> thats good
[01:10] <linuxd00d> well at least i cant break stuff
[01:10] <dr_willis_> some are just done - because the devs  got confused. :)
[01:10] <linuxd00d> lol
[01:11] <linuxd00d> i kno very basic stuff
[01:11] <linuxd00d> i done about 1-2 months of Enterprise Redhat Linux Course work
[01:11] <linuxd00d> soooo hard
[01:13] <linuxd00d> and it doesnt help that have worked with windows basically all my life
[01:13] <linuxd00d> i just got sick of Crashes and BSOD
[01:13] <wckdkl0wn> what site do you all recommend for getting kde themes?
[01:14] <linuxd00d> use google
[01:14] <linuxd00d> i have trouble installing themes on Gnome guys
[01:15] <wckdkl0wn> reason for me asking is because i am using kdm theme manager and it doesnt recognise any of the themes i download
[01:15] <wckdkl0wn> says they arent valid
[01:15] <linuxd00d> yeah
[01:18] <linuxd00d> Yeah people i cant install themes for Gnome it says file not valid
[01:19] <MuJ> gnome..
[01:19] <linuxd00d> yeah
[01:19] <MuJ> you know tje K n Kubuntu stands for KDE?
[01:19] <MuJ> the*
[01:20] <linuxd00d> i know im using ubuntu
[01:20] <MuJ> yeah.. and this is #kubuntu
[01:20] <linuxd00d> good point
[01:21] <linuxd00d> sorry
[01:21] <linuxd00d> bye all
[01:21] <MuJ> 0_o
[01:23] <markc> anyone bumped into the edgy xorg ABI mismatch problem ?
[01:24] <phildini> hi. does anyone know of a way to get the wireless manager in kubuntu to auto-connect to networks it already knows?
[01:24] <yorick> hi
[01:24] <Agios> I am avoiding all things edgy right now
[01:26] <markc> Agios: yeah, I might have to reboot into gentoo for a week or 2 by the looks of it, t'was fine for me up until the last update
[01:28] <mjeung> I have this really crappy computer that I'm running ubuntu on.  Does anyone happen to know of a good resource I can find that'll help me tune the performance up a little?
[01:28] <mjeung> or if there are any GUI features that I can disable to eke out some more speed..
[01:29] <jmichaelx> ok i am staying out of #ubuntu lol
[01:29] <Goop2> johnflux: still here?
[01:30] <Goop2> johnflux_
[01:30] <dr_willis_> mjeung,  use  very mininal window manager for a start.
[01:30] <Goop2> :(
[01:31] <mjeung> ah.  is that an application, or are you just saying to use very few applications at a time..? =)
[01:31] <simian__> if i remember correctly you need to install something in order to play radio streams on amarok?
[01:31] <h3sp4wn> mjeung: Use fluxbox
[01:32] <BluesKaj> fluxbox?
[01:32] <phildini> hi. does anyone know of a way to get the wireless manager in kubuntu to auto-connect to networks it already knows?
[01:32] <Goop2> anybody know how to fix a zoomed screen? its not a small resolution, its zoomed
[01:33] <dr_willis_> Goop2,  some game started and screweed up?
[01:33] <simian__> what do you need to install to play radio streams in amarok?
[01:33] <markc> bah, gentoo will take 2 days to recompile everything, thank goodness for livecds
[01:33] <Goop2> dr_willis: actualy it happened when I rebooted
[01:33] <dr_willis_> odd.
[01:33] <BluesKaj> try streamtuner , but it uses xmms as default player
[01:34] <Goop2> quite
[01:36] <Goop2> Ive tried quite a few things, but I couldent figure it out
[01:39] <jmichaelx> is anyone in here using edgy and a broadcom wireless card?
[01:43] <plbgnr> hello, I need to use remote filesystem as local, but it is not needed to use sshfs (client box has low performance) what can i use? (server - dapper, client breezy)
[01:43] <erov> nfs ?
[01:44] <plbgnr> erov:thanks ...I heard about it but wasn't sure if it is what i need
[01:45] <Hawkwind> jmichaelx: Ask that in #Ubuntu+1 as there are many more edgy users there I'm sure
[01:46] <dr_willis_>  but it is not needed to use sshfs?
[01:46] <dr_willis_> Clarify what that means exactly. :)
[01:46] <jmichaelx> Hawkwind: ty
[01:46] <dr_willis_> could use samba, or nfs, or hmmm...
[01:47] <h3sp4wn> shfs is pretty easy to setup
[01:48] <h3sp4wn> just one module to build with module-assistant
[01:48] <erov> but uses more resources
[01:48] <dr_willis_> i used that FUSE stuff with ssh, and samba, and other neat things. :P
[01:48] <dr_willis_> fun to play with
[01:49] <h3sp4wn> You cannot route nfs without using a vpn (or at least didn't used to be able to)
[01:50] <h3sp4wn> using nbd (network block device) over a vpn might be interesting (just acts like any other local disk then)
[01:51] <psynth> unable to playback mp3 files, or any audio for that matter, but the system sounds do work ? have installed the mpeg libs. any ideas ?
[01:52] <plbgnr> h3sp4wn_:I want for example this: on server is avi file, and without copying it whole to client I want to play it on client pc
[01:53] <dr_willis_> thats now mounting it whth samba or nfs would work.
[01:53] <dr_willis_> using the gnome or kde samba browsers would however download it first. then play it.
[01:53] <Goop2> anybody know how to fix a zoomed screen?
[01:53] <dr_willis_> not sure about their ftp/fish/other meta-filesystem browsers
[01:54] <dr_willis_> Goop2,  try just rerunning the X config tools?
[01:54] <h3sp4wn> plbgnr: When you say remote you mean across the internet quite far away ?
[01:54] <dr_willis_> Goop2,  or that menu item that changes the res under kde.
[01:54] <plbgnr> h3sp4wn:lan
[01:54] <Goop2> dr_willis: its not resolution, the screen is actualy zoomed in.. like a.. magnifying glass
[01:55] <dr_willis_> so if ya move the mouse - the screen pans around?
[01:55] <Goop2> yeah
[01:55] <psynth> unable to playback mp3 files, or any audio for that matter, but the system sounds do work ? have installed the mpeg libs. any ideas ?
[01:55] <dr_willis_> Thats how it works :)  well used to work years ago.
[01:56] <dr_willis_> you got a larger screen defined, then the monitor is some how able to show  (so the pc thinks) so its giving ya a moveable viewport on a larger virtual screen
[01:56] <dr_willis_> Thats how we used to do high-res on low end hardware. :)
[01:56] <h3sp4wn> plbgnr: If I was going to do what you want to I would probably mess around with gfs (but only because I think nfs and samba are pretty dull)
[01:56] <markc> psynth: libxine-extracodecs perhaps ?
[01:57] <Goop2> dr_willis: I saw something about that while trying to figure out how to do dual moniters.. I skipped it though cause it wasnt wat I was lookin for :P
[01:57] <Goop2> dr_willis: weird thing is.. that was earlier today too
[01:57] <dr_willis_> heh.
[01:59] <Goop2> dr_willis: did I maybe mess it up while looking at the dual screen thing?
[02:00] <Goop2> cause it wasnt like this before
[02:01] <dr_willis_> no clue there..  i always keep backups of my x confgs :P
[02:01] <dr_willis_> if for some reason its thinking the monitor can only handle 600x800 or whateger.. and it asks for a 12000x12000 screen. :P ya get a scrolly virtual display.
[02:02] <dr_willis_> Used to be the 'IN" thing to use. :P years ago
[02:03] <h3sp4wn> But at that time anyone using it seriously would have a sun or sgi with a nice big monitor
[02:03] <h3sp4wn> (i.e for any type of work)
[02:03] <dr_willis_> we had them. :P but wanted MORE!
[02:03] <dr_willis_> :)
[02:03] <dr_willis_> big huge greyscale monitors.
[02:03] <dr_willis_> and a scanner tablet the size of a ping pong table.
[02:03] <Goop2> LOL
[02:03] <dr_willis_> and a plotter that could draw on 4x8 ft sheets of paper
[02:04] <dr_willis_> Doing a lot of  Topo Maps.
[02:05] <wckdkl0wn> what program other then kaffeine can i use to play avi and mpeg files?
[02:05] <h3sp4wn> codeine
[02:05] <||Trayer||> Is KDevelop installed by default on kubuntu, and if not how would one get it?
[02:06] <markc> apt-get install kdevelop
[02:07] <||Trayer||> It says no installation candidate
[02:09] <markc> ||Trayer||: I've just reinstalled dapper, hang on a sec, I'll check
[02:09] <||Trayer||>  markc: Kk
[02:10] <Goop2> is there a way to have a custom resolution? the big one they try to make me use is about 100 pixels bigger than I can use I think
[02:11] <||Trayer||> Goop2: In your videocard config file I know you can set it (For me it was in xorg.conf)
[02:11] <h3sp4wn> Goop2: Just make a custom modeline using the generator (google modeline generator)
[02:12] <h3sp4wn> Goop2: put it into the Monitor section of xorg.conf (specify it directly at the bottom i.e 1280x1024@60 (or whatever the name of the modeline is)
[02:12] <Goop2> where would I find that file?
[02:12] <_susana> hola
[02:13] <||Trayer||>  /etc
[02:13] <||Trayer||> Goop2: */etc/X11/xorg.conf is the path
[02:13] <Goop2> ok

[02:18] <||Trayer||> It's in the repos? I did a check and couldn't find it.  I just downloaded it off of http://www.kdevelop.org/  (The .debs)
[02:19] <farous> ||Trayer||: it is in universe you might need to enable the extra repos
[02:19] <farous> !easysource > ||Trayer||
[02:19] <||Trayer||>  farous: I have multiverse and universe
[02:19] <farous> ||Trayer||: and i just searched for kdevelop3 and it shows there
[02:19] <markc> farous: I just checked and it's not there and what ubotu is pointing at is for breezy, I think\
[02:19] <farous> perhaps you need another mirror
[02:20] <farous> give me a min to update my repos again
[02:20] <jeppelelle> join #ubuntu -se
[02:20] <markc> I have a fresh install, just added universe and multiverse and apt-cache search develop shows nothing
[02:21] <||Trayer||>  markc: I'd just get the debs off the official http://www.kdevelop.org/ http mirror.  Worked like a charm ^^
[02:21] <jeppelelle> how i get too the swedish channel ?
[02:21] <farous> i have it in universe dapper kdevelop3
[02:21] <jeppelelle> join #ubuntu-se

[02:22] <markc> jeppelelle: /join
[02:22] <markc> farous: yes
[02:23] <jeppelelle> It doesent work
[02:23] <farous> markc: that is strange for i can see them in the repos check packages.ubuntu.com and you will find them too
[02:23] <markc> apt-get update ; apt-cache search kdevelop = nothing (with universe and multiverse added)
[02:23] <jeppelelle> can some one help me get steam working, i have installed it but how i hopen it ?
[02:23] <farous> markc either you have a bad mirror or you did not enable universe properly
[02:24] <farous> markc: use the pastebin and let me have a look at your sources.list file
[02:24] <||Trayer||> markc: Farous' is definitly right.  Turns out my sources.list had universe spellt univers (oops ^^;) It's appearing now
[02:24] <markc> farous: I've changed mirrors and updating again.. like I say, a fresh install for me so I might have something wrong

[02:41] <h3sp4wn> Sometime it makes you think of all the useless cd's that have been sent out
[02:42] <soulrider> hi everyone, i need some pro help :-/
[02:42] <soulrider> ASAP
[02:42] <archangel_> is there much difference between the 32 and 64 bit versions of Kubuntu?
[02:43] <soulrider> i think allt he pros are AFK :P
[02:43] <archangel_> HA yeah
[02:43] <archangel_> maybe so
[02:43] <soulrider> i think my HD died
[02:43] <soulrider> and i need something to chek it under linux
[02:44] <soulrider> but i dont know what to use
[02:44] <soulrider> besides, its NTFS
[02:44] <soulrider> !ntfs
[02:44] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions  -  See also !fuse
[02:44] <archangel_> soulrider: does it boot?
[02:44] <BluesKaj> archangel_, I used both ,prefer the 32bit , less probs and more programs work
[02:44] <soulrider> thats the thing
[02:44] <soulrider> it does boot
[02:44] <markc> soulrider: badblocks MAY work on ntfs
[02:44] <soulrider> but ti makes weird noises
[02:44] <jmichaelx> what does it mean if sudo modpobe ndiswrapper does nothing?
[02:44] <soulrider> and sometimes it just locks up
[02:45] <BluesKaj> soulrider, GParted
[02:45] <archangel_> BluesKaj: yeah, thats the issue I'm having
[02:45] <soulrider> what i wanna do is scan the sectors
[02:45] <soulrider> i dont thinkt he formatting matters
[02:45] <soulrider> but i dunno
[02:45] <soulrider> !badblocks
[02:45] <ubotu> I know nothing about badblocks - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[02:45] <archangel_> BluesKaj: flash only a 32 bit program
[02:45] <markc> soulrider: use badblocks from a shell
[02:45] <soulrider> im a bit newbie :P
[02:45] <soulrider> how do i do that? :/
[02:45] <BluesKaj> there are several others as well, archangel_
[02:46] <markc> soulrider: are you now booted onto the drive you eant to check ?
[02:46] <Goop2> hmmm... trying to mess with xorg.conf.. it wont let me save
[02:46] <soulrider> im using the live CD
[02:46] <archangel_> BluesKaj: I guess i should do it now or never
[02:47] <markc> soulrider: okay, open up konsole, sudo -i
[02:47] <BluesKaj> archangel_, yeah, I had to reinstall from scratch ...it became too frustrating trying to make 64bit work
[02:47] <soulrider> ok,
[02:47] <soulrider> whatd oes that do ?
[02:48] <markc> soulrider: do you know where your drive is .. like /dev/hda ?
[02:48] <_bbeck> Goop2: What do you mean?  What's the it?
[02:48] <soulrider> i didnt mount it
[02:48] <soulrider> i mean, tis connected but i dont think i can see it
[02:48] <markc> soulrider: no, don't mount it
[02:48] <soulrider> its NTFS
[02:48] <BluesKaj> that was my experience , archangel_
[02:48] <markc> soulrider: ls -l /dev/hd*
[02:48] <Goop2> Im trying to fix my resolution, but I can save the xorg.conf file from KATE
[02:49] <soulrider> please abre with me, i know its frustrating but im still learning :P
[02:49] <_bbeck> You have to edit the xorg.conf file as root.
[02:49] <Goop2> _bbeck: thats what I thought.. how do I get to root?
[02:49] <soulrider> i se hda, hda1, hda2 and hda5
[02:49] <soulrider> brw-rw---- 1 root disk   3, 0 Jul 29 21:36 /dev/hda
[02:49] <soulrider> brw-rw---- 1 root disk   3, 1 Jul 29 21:36 /dev/hda1
[02:49] <soulrider> brw-rw---- 1 root disk   3, 2 Jul 29 21:36 /dev/hda2
[02:49] <soulrider> brw-rw---- 1 root disk   3, 5 Jul 29 21:36 /dev/hda5
[02:50] <Goop2> _bbeck: alt-f2?
[02:50] <_bbeck> I think you can press alt+f2 then type kdesu kate
[02:50] <markc> soulrider: assuning the ntfs partition is on your first IDE drive then you can "cfdisk /dev/hda" to see the partitions, then q for quit
[02:50] <soulrider> whats cfdisk ?
[02:50] <markc> soulrider" it's probably /dev/hda1
[02:50] <soulrider> and its the only hard drive that is connected
[02:51] <soulrider> i typed what you said and got
[02:51] <markc> cfdisk /dev/hda ... and it'll show you what the partition types are... it's a shell based apartitioner
[02:51] <soulrider> FATAL ERROR: Bad primary partition 0: Partition begins after end-of-disk
[02:51] <soulrider>                           Press any key to exit cfdisk
[02:51] <soulrider> i wrote:

[02:51] <markc> soulrider: no cfdisk /dev/hda
[02:52] <Goop2> _bbeck: would you know how to refresh to change the resolution?
[02:52] <soulrider> yay, it shows 2 partitions
[02:52] <soulrider> my two NTFS partitions
[02:52] <soulrider> of the same HD
[02:52] <markc> soulrider: does it say which one is ntfs, or not ext3 ?
[02:53] <soulrider> both say NTFS
[02:53] <markc> soulrider: oh, both partitions are ntfs... are they hda1 and hda5 ?
[02:53] <soulrider> hda1 sais primary and hda5 sais logical
[02:53] <soulrider> yes
[02:53] <soulrider> and my Hd just amde the most horrible noise :-/
[02:54] <markc> right, badblocks /dev/hda1
[02:54] <_bbeck> Goop2: Honestly, the last time I changed resolutions I did a dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, and let the debian configuration tool guide me through.
[02:55] <soulrider> uhm
[02:55] <soulrider> its like the cnosole its wokring on soemthing
[02:55] <soulrider> th  HD light went on
[02:55] <soulrider> and then off
[02:55] <markc> soulrider: if it's going to die it's going to die
[02:55] <soulrider> and now its on agan :/
[02:55] <soulrider> i know
[02:55] <soulrider> but tis not that old
[02:55] <soulrider> 2 or 3 years probably
[02:55] <soulrider> and if it does im so gonna die too :P
[02:56] <soulrider> when will this be done?
[02:56] <markc> can you copy it somewhere, like onto another drive in the same machine ?
[02:56] <soulrider> nope, this hard drive is 120 GB adn my other hard drive is 30 :-/
[02:56] <soulrider> i need to copy around 90Gb of data
[02:57] <soulrider> and i dont think my dad has that much capacity on his other computer either
[02:57] <soulrider> how do i know if badblocks is working or if its done ?
[02:58] <markc> sad, if it's important stuff then you might be better turning it off altogether and wait till you get another drive, or another computer networked
[02:58] <soulrider> i mean tis not that important
[02:58] <soulrider> i got all my programmign stuff on the other hard drive
[02:58] <soulrider> but its lots of things i downlaoded
[02:58] <soulrider> and i know i wont be able to get again
[02:59] <soulrider> funny thing is that im gettign another comp next weekend
[02:59] <soulrider> and i was gonna copy everything to another drive
[02:59] <soulrider> and this happens.... perfect timing... .
[03:00] <markc> there are some flags for badblocks to show more info... control-c then try again with badblocks -v /dev/hda1
[03:00] <soulrider> control c wont do anything
[03:01] <soulrider> and it doesnt seem to be working on my HD
[03:01] <markc> soulrider: it's probably locked up on some bad blocks
[03:01] <soulrider> great!
[03:01] <soulrider> how do i shut it doen ?
[03:02] <soulrider> just press the cross ont he console ?
[03:02] <markc> you might have to reboot... sorry, the -v would have shown what it was doing right now
[03:02] <soulrider> its allright
[03:02] <soulrider> thanks a LOT ofr the help
[03:03] <soulrider> uhm, i got badblocks: Permission denied while trying to determine device size
[03:03] <markc> soulrider: badblocks -h and man badblocks gives some more info
[03:04] <soulrider> i think i gotta reboot
[03:04] <markc> soulrider: perhaps your drive is providing faulty info... seeing it's having a near death experience
[03:05] <soulrider> oh crap
[03:05] <soulrider> k, im gonna reboot, ill be back in a few secs :P
[03:06] <markc> soulrider: try and use another computer until you get your new one and then you'll have some chance of rescuing your data
[03:06] <soulrider> dont you move =D
[03:06] <soulrider> kk

[04:03] <||Trayer||>  RawSewage: Tis open
[04:03] <robotgeek> ||Trayer||: usually killall apt-get works
[04:03] <robotgeek> sudo killall apt-get , actually
[04:03] <RawSewage> then
[04:03] <RawSewage> sudo dpkg --configure -a
[04:03] <||Trayer||>  robotgeek: No process killed
[04:03] <RawSewage> sudo dpkg --configure -a
[04:03] <||Trayer||>  RawSewage: attempting that now
[04:04] <robotgeek> sudo killall dpkg , ||Trayer||
[04:05] <MukiEX> VLC (universe?) plays MP4 files REALLY fuzzy. Friend of mine just sent me a quick home vid he made and I can't see it at all. Is there a fix/patch for this?
[04:05] <MukiEX> Seems like a flaw in FFMPEG.
[04:06] <Agios> try another player like mplayer
[04:06] <MukiEX> Specifically, in AVC1
[04:09] <MukiEX> Yup, it's VLC; kaffiene has no issues =(
[04:11] <Kr4t05> What's the console command for bittorrent?
[04:11] <||Trayer||> ktorrent
[04:11] <||Trayer||> I think
[04:11] <Kr4t05> Not Ktorrent
[04:11] <Kr4t05> But the Bittorrent client
[04:11] <Kr4t05> The "official" one.
[04:12] <||Trayer||> I actually really don't reccomend using the official one, but it should be bittorrent if it's in the correct path.
[04:12] <||Trayer||> I'd use ktorrent, bitcomet, utorrent,
[04:12] <[Nirvana] > utorrent thru wine of course ^
[04:13] <Kr4t05> Right.
[04:13] <Lunar_Raven> <3 ktorrent
[04:13] <OOD> there's ktorrent 2.0 now
[04:13] <||Trayer||> ktorrent = awesome
[04:13] <||Trayer||> fast speed
[04:13] <OOD> big improvement
[04:13] <Lunar_Raven> yeah 2.0 is really good
[04:13] <[Nirvana] > ||Trayer||: I bet I'm a psychic: your from Toronto
[04:14] <||Trayer||>  Nirvana: Close, ottawa ; ).
[04:14] <OOD> yeah? where am i from?
[04:14] <[Nirvana] > BC? some place in Canada  running a DSL line?
[04:14] <robotgeek> i dont know where I am from, lol
[04:14] <abattoir> hmm, lots of people from CA
[04:15] <OOD> some place in canada?
[04:15] <OOD> a little more specific ;)
[04:15] <OOD> ?
[04:15] <robotgeek> or so says my whois
[04:15] <||Trayer||> I'm still getting the will not do stuff on Adept
[04:15] <||Trayer||> I closed a adept during a install since it froze
[04:15] <||Trayer||> whois robotgeek
[04:15] <[Nirvana] > sudo killall apt-get; sudo killall dpkg; sudo killall adept
[04:15] <OOD> whois OOD
[04:16] <[Nirvana] > and then sudo dpkg reconfigure -a
[04:16] <||Trayer||> That last command, you sure it's correct?
[04:16] <robotgeek> ||Trayer||: do what [Nirvana]  says
[04:17] <||Trayer||>  robotkeet&nirvana: It killed a dpkg but that last command isn't working
[04:17] <abattoir> dpkg-reconfigure -a ?
[04:17] <OOD> instead of typing all those up seperatly, you can put ' && ' in between each
[04:17] <[Nirvana] > ^^oui
[04:17] <[Nirvana] > ^^double oui
[04:17] <abattoir> [Nirvana] : heh
[04:18] <abattoir> !fr >  [Nirvana]
[04:18] <abattoir> [Nirvana] : :P
[04:18] <archangel_> just got rid of 64 bit and down-graded to 32 bit.  Sheesh, why should I have to do this.
[04:18] <archangel_> disgraceful
[04:19] <archangel_> (version of kubuntu)
[04:19] <[Nirvana] > because 64 bit linux has poor app support?
[04:19] <archangel_> yup
[04:19] <||Trayer||> what's the /command to do something in IRC?
[04:19] <archangel_> sux
[04:19] <OOD> depends what the command is

[04:21] <abattoir> !ubotu
[04:21] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbotuUsage
[04:21] <[Nirvana] > It has a brain!!
[04:21] <OOD> and its

[04:21] <[Nirvana] > and with that, I bid y'all farewell, join KubuntuForums.net for more of my Crazy-but-totally-under-controlled antics that never actually happen
[04:22] <archangel_> OOD: where did you take me for the final installation of the video driver? (gotta do it all again due to reinstall)
[04:22] <OOD> adept
[04:22] <||Trayer||>  I'm still getting "You will not be able to change your system settings in any way (install, remove or upgrade software), because another process is using the packaging system database (probably some other Adept application or apt-get or aptitude). Please close the other application before using this one."     I think it is because that reconfigure command never works for me o_O; You sure you guys have the right s
[04:22] <||Trayer||> That could of been pastbin'd =  /
[04:23] <archangel_> OOD: I did the sapositories and got my driver

[04:26] <archangel_> I dont know\
[04:26] <lnxkde> I installed gcompizthemer
[04:27] <OOD> that's for cgwd (compiz generic window desktop)
[04:27] <lnxkde> and themes showup on the list vut I cant use them
[04:27] <OOD> i think that's the acronim
[04:27] <lnxkde> I dont know how to enable them
[04:27] <OOD> you're probably using compiz-gnome as the window manager
[04:27] <lnxkde> yep
[04:27] <henriquemaia> Hikaru79, everyone.
[04:27] <OOD> in order to use those things you have to switch to cgwd
[04:27] <OOD> those themes*
[04:27] <lnxkde> I see
[04:28] <Hikaru79> LOL, henriquemaia
[04:28] <henriquemaia> Opppps, nick completion erro.

[04:39] <OOD> check kmix for muted channels
[04:40] <archangel_> done
[04:41] <archangel_> I had to switch it from 'nvidia' (?) to my Audigy card
[04:41] <archangel_> still nothing
[04:44] <||Trayer||> !pastebin
[04:44] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[04:45] <OOD> archangel: you have an integrated sound card on your mobo?
[04:45] <||Trayer||>  I'm getting the following error in KDevelop: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19218
[04:45] <||Trayer||> It's NOT related to my source code.
[04:45] <archangel_> yes, but I have it disabled and want to use my audigy
[04:46] <OOD> archangel_: you disabled it in the bios?
[04:47] <archangel_> yes
[04:48] <ubuntu> hi guys
[04:49] <ubuntu> i m totally new here
[04:49] <OOD> welcome to kubuntu
[04:49] <robotgeek> hey ubuntu

[04:51] <ubuntu> how can i change the monitor resolution?
[04:52] <Dr_Willis> !fixres
[04:52] <ubotu> x is the X Window System; it's the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type this in a console: sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  -  To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[04:52] <Dr_Willis> but heck - i cant get my res to lower  :) lol.
[04:52] <robotgeek> ||Trayer||: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[04:52] <robotgeek> Dr_Willis: just for the heck of it?
[04:52] <abattoir> ubuntu: type Alt+F2-> in the Run command dialogue, type 'krandrtray' and click run
[04:52] <ubuntu> ok i fixed mine @ least
[04:52] <Dr_Willis> robotgeek:  using the tv out mainly on this box.. and i dont need that high a res for the tv.
[04:52] <lnxkde> OOD : uploading it to imageshack :D
[04:52] <Dr_Willis> its screwing things up
[04:52] <ubuntu> guys are you getting my msgs?
[04:53] <Dr_Willis> plus i got a little monitor
[04:53] <Dr_Willis> ubuntu:  we read you
[04:53] <archangel_> alsamixergui? OOD
[04:53] <Dr_Willis> ypu may want to change nicks however.
[04:53] <ubuntu> gr8
[04:53] <ubuntu> guys i want some one to help me
[04:53] <wolfmanz> abattoir is fglrxinfo a standard command to see what version of ati driver you have?
[04:53] <OOD> archangel_: yeah that would be it
[04:53] <ubuntu> something very easy
[04:53] <archangel_> k
[04:53] <abattoir> wolfmanz: must be, i dont use ati drivers :P
[04:53] <ubuntu> how can add 2 network ip to one ethernet interface
[04:54] <archangel_> sudo install alsamixergui    ?
[04:54] <ubuntu> i did only one
[04:54] <robotgeek> ubuntu: what do you mean "2 network ips'"
[04:54] <wolfmanz> abattoir well that command is a unknown command for me
[04:54] <ubuntu> i have one network interface ok but i would like to but on it 2 ip address
[04:54] <||Trayer||>  robotgeek: Thanks! That worked : )
[04:54] <abattoir> wolfmanz: do you have the relevant fglrx packages installed?
[04:54] <ubuntu> i am an IT in saudi arabia
[04:55] <OOD> archangel_: you can use adept to install it, or sudo apt-get install alsamixergui in terminal
[04:55] <ubuntu> i uesd to do it with windows platform
[04:55] <wolfmanz> abattoir i'm not sure i dont know how to see what drivers are in use i thought kubuntu installed ati drivers if you were using that
[04:55] <archangel_> I all ready installed it, but I thought I had to do the 2 step again like with the video driver
[04:55] <Corrosive> does anyone know if there is a program for kubuntu that can play .wmv files, or convert .wmv files into .avi?
[04:56] <Dr_Willis> SOME wmv files can be played with vlc,mplayer, and xine.
[04:56] <Corrosive> thanks
[04:56] <ubuntu> no one want to help me
[04:56] <ubuntu> :(
[04:56] <OOD> !w32
[04:56] <ubotu> I know nothing about w32 - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[04:56] <OOD> !w32codecs
[04:56] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats  -  See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html  -  But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[04:57] <OOD> Corrosive: ^^
[04:57] <archangel_> OOD: never mind, its already in my menu, it did it automatically I guess
[04:57] <||Trayer||>  FOR ANYONE wanting to play WMVs, Use VLC with windows codecs OR run wmp  6   <- 6 6 6!  under wine
[04:57] <abattoir> wolfmanz: you have xorg-driver-fglrx installed?
[04:57] <||Trayer||>  Using sidenet script
[04:57] <Dr_Willis> Changeing Nicks was a good idea.
[04:57] <Dr_Willis> :P
[04:58] <||Trayer||>  If you're using windows media player the newest wine and sidenet scripts work.
[04:58] <Talo0ot> guys
[04:58] <lnxkde> http://img225.imageshack.us/img225/9413/snapshot1ge3.png
[04:58] <Corrosive> thanks everyone, I'll try all those things
[04:58] <||Trayer||> inxkde: o_O
[04:58] <||Trayer||> Kubuntu vista...? lol
[04:58] <Talo0ot> anyone could help me please
[04:59] <archangel_> OOD: hmmm, it keeps wanting to go back to the onboard chipset. I seems like if it was truely disabled it wouldnt do that
[04:59] <wolfmanz> abattoir acording to the adept i dont have
[04:59] <Dr_Willis> Talo0ot:  what was the question? i mssed it
[04:59] <Agios> ubuntu: http://www.xenocafe.com/tutorials/linux/redhat/bind_multiple_ip_addresses_to_single_nic/index.php
[04:59] <Agios> there's a start
[04:59] <Talo0ot> i want to add 2 network ip
[04:59] <archangel_> OOD: going to check again in bios
[04:59] <Talo0ot> to one eth
[04:59] <Corrosive> oh one more question, where can I get the windows codecs for VCL?
 is more like a kubunutu osx :p
[04:59] <abattoir> !ati
[04:59] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:59] <Dr_Willis> Talo0ot:  dare we ask Why you want to such an odd thing?
[05:00] <abattoir> wolfmanz: you followed that?^^^
[05:00] <Agios> or Talo0ot, whatever you are this moment
[05:00] <Talo0ot> i have 2 transparent network running on the same hubs switches
[05:00] <wolfmanz> abattoir follow what the wiki url?
[05:01] <Talo0ot> i thought linux have alot of features
[05:01] <lnxkde> OOD: http://img225.imageshack.us/img225/9413/snapshot1ge3.png  thankx bro :D
[05:01] <Agios> more than you can imagine
[05:01] <TehKewl1> it's modular
[05:01] <abattoir> wolfmanz: how did you setup your drivers? or are you using the default one that comes with restricted-modules?
[05:01] <Agios> you still have to learn how to use them
[05:01] <TehKewl1> there are infinite features
[05:01] <Talo0ot> ook  then how can i but 2 ips on one ethernet
[05:01] <wolfmanz> abattoir i didnt set anything up i installed kubuntu so it did whatever it does
[05:02] <Talo0ot> i uesd to do it with command line with mikrotik
[05:02] <Agios> Talo0ot: I gave you a url, read
[05:02] <Talo0ot> but here i dont
[05:02] <Talo0ot> ok please give me
[05:02] <OOD> lnxkde: the themer is great, i really like it :)
[05:02] <Agios> http://www.xenocafe.com/tutorials/linux/redhat/bind_multiple_ip_addresses_to_single_nic/index.php
[05:02] <Talo0ot> i feel that i m profssional guy with this os hehehehe
[05:02] <abattoir> wolfmanz: well, if you have an ati card, to make more use of its features, you'd want to follow that wiki guide and install ati's binary drivers
[05:02] <KaiHanari> anyone know a good aacplus -> mp3 converter?
[05:02] <wolfmanz> abattoir i was afraid of that lol
[05:03] <lnxkde> OOD yep we can make compiz integrate with kde better
[05:03] <Talo0ot> dr_wills
[05:03] <Talo0ot> can i do it from command line on this OS?
[05:03] <geneo93> 10
[05:03] <OOD> lnxkde: cgwd is a step closer to that. since you don't have to install half of gnome to get xgl running
[05:04] <Dr_Willis> Talo0ot:  i got no clue as to why you woudl want to.. and that guy gave you a url.. time to go read I think.,
[05:04] <Talo0ot> i have a question
[05:04] <Dr_Willis> and I imagine YES it will involove a lot of the command line.
[05:04] <Talo0ot> how can i open command line
[05:04] <TehKewl1> I had to pull out my nVIDIA card to install
[05:04] <Dr_Willis> I have no idea what youmean by 'open command line'
[05:04] <lnxkde> OOD : I wonder how this will wotl with AIGLX
[05:04] <TehKewl1> then put it back in and do crap in the command line
[05:04] <lnxkde> work*
[05:04] <OOD> Talo0ot: konsole?
[05:04] <Talo0ot> yeah
[05:04] <Talo0ot> hehehe
[05:05] <Corrosive> I assume he means console
[05:05] <Talo0ot> konsole
[05:05] <Dr_Willis> It may be worth while to read a few bash tutorials.
[05:05] <Corrosive> It's in the K Menu under System
[05:05] <Talo0ot> dr_willis i read for 2 days
[05:05] <Dr_Willis> Talo0ot:  aparently you missed a lot then. :P
[05:05] <Talo0ot> hehehehe
[05:06] <lnxkde> bbl
[05:06] <Talo0ot>  /etc
[05:06] <OOD> lnxkde: problem with aiglx is that it doesn't work with nvidia cards yet, and those are the best cards for linux
[05:06] <Talo0ot> heheh sorrrrrrrrrrrrrry
[05:06] <OOD> kind of a bad situation
[05:06] <Corrosive> I read non ^^; Mostly figured out what I know myself. But after someone explained Adept to me most everything has been plain sailing
[05:07] <Corrosive> But then I'm not a poweruser, I use my laptop for web browsing, emails and DVDs
[05:07] <Corrosive> not a lot of tech knowledge needed
[05:07] <Dr_Willis> brb
[05:07] <robotgeek> Corrosive: i just browse, and check email on mine
[05:07] <lnxkde> OOD yep but eventually It will and it will be easyer to integrate desktops because is part of xorg
[05:08] <Talo0ot> DONE
[05:08] <Talo0ot> question guys
[05:08] <lnxkde> but I will be back in 10 mins
[05:08] <Talo0ot> i dont know how to setup a program
[05:08] <lnxkde> time for shower and a coke after that
[05:08] <Talo0ot> i need toturial
[05:08] <lnxkde> bbl
[05:08] <obaleh> tutorial for what.
[05:08] <Talo0ot> for installing a programe
[05:09] <Talo0ot> i extract a file
[05:09] <Corrosive> Talo0ot: You mean installing a program? Have you checked to see if it's on Adept Package Manager first?
[05:09] <Talo0ot> no it will not be
[05:09] <OOD> what program is it
[05:10] <Talo0ot> its its satellite internet acceleration software
[05:10] <OOD> you have satelite internet ? o.0
[05:10] <Talo0ot> yes
[05:11] <Talo0ot> http://www.onlyslon.org/slonax/
[05:11] <Talo0ot> open this page
[05:11] <Talo0ot> and you will find linux version
[05:11] <Talo0ot> i download it
[05:11] <Talo0ot> i extract it
[05:11] <Talo0ot> then i double click on it but nothing happend
[05:12] <Corrosive> try right click, check in permmissions if it's executable
[05:12] <Corrosive> right click > properties > permissions
[05:12] <Corrosive> other than that, I'm a noob I don't really know how to help
[05:12] <OOD> Talo0ot: it's a cli program
[05:12] <OOD> run it in terminal
[05:13] <Talo0ot> how
[05:13] <Talo0ot> i m in terminal
[05:13] <OOD> cd into where you extracted it
[05:13] <Dr_Willis> reading the docs is handy. :P
[05:13] <Talo0ot> hahahahaa
[05:13] <Talo0ot> dr_willis bad guy
[05:13] <OOD> it is on your desktop?
[05:14] <Talo0ot> yes
[05:14] <OOD> Dr_Willis: give up the fight, you cant win, get nvidia :P
[05:14] <unix_infidel> Dr_Willis: its no use on the laptop.
[05:14] <OOD> open terminal
[05:14] <Talo0ot> i did
[05:14] <unix_infidel> it interferes with acpi features on the lapotp with ati.
[05:14] <OOD> type: cd Desktop
[05:14] <Dr_Willis> Thisis on my fileserver.
[05:14] <OOD> then: ./slnx_client
[05:14] <unix_infidel> Dr_Willis: LOL, why are you running X on a file server?
[05:14] <Dr_Willis> its got an ati9700 in it. tv out works.. but videos i play. dont show up.
[05:15] <Dr_Willis> unix_infidel:  so i can watch porn in the basement. :P
[05:15] <Dr_Willis> and i cant get the res to be low enogh - its being too user friendly
[05:15] <Talo0ot> ok
[05:15] <Talo0ot> then
[05:15] <Dr_Willis> getting on my nerves
[05:17] <OOD> Talo0ot: did it work?
[05:17] <Talo0ot> i did what you told me
[05:17] <Talo0ot> but nothing happend
[05:17] <Talo0ot> there is 2 version ntl and regular which one should i ues
[05:17] <OOD> what do you mean nothing happened?
[05:18] <OOD> what output did you get?
[05:18] <Talo0ot> ok listen
[05:18] <Talo0ot> i open the desktop directory
[05:18] <Talo0ot> throw the konsol
[05:18] <Talo0ot> ok
[05:18] <Talo0ot> i tyoe
[05:19] <Talo0ot> i wrote :./slnx_client
[05:19] <Talo0ot> ok
[05:19] <Talo0ot> it start new line in the konsle no error msgs
[05:20] <Dr_Willis> thenit worked. :P
[05:20] <Dr_Willis> no output = no errors - it worked. Lol.
[05:20] <OOD> yeah
[05:20] <OOD> if you get nothing then you started the program
[05:20] <Talo0ot> ok how can i run it then
[05:20] <OOD> you just did
[05:20] <Dr_Willis> lol
[05:20] <Dr_Willis> :P
[05:20] <Talo0ot> but how can i see the programe interface
[05:20] <OOD> there is none
[05:20] <OOD> that is the program
[05:21] <Talo0ot> kidding
[05:21] <OOD> the program interface is the sx_client.conf
[05:21] <OOD> you set your settings there
[05:21] <OOD> then run slnx_client
[05:21] <Talo0ot> i know man
[05:21] <Talo0ot> i have it in windows
[05:21] <unix_infidel> Dr_Willis: you watch porn in 3d?
[05:21] <OOD> windows != linux
[05:21] <unix_infidel> that's....like damn....that's like awesome.
[05:21] <Dr_Willis> unix_infidel:  stero! :P
[05:22] <Dr_Willis> id like to watch the videos on the tv.. not the little monitor
[05:22] <Talo0ot> mmmmmmmmmmm
[05:22] <OOD> then you can read debug.log for feedback from the program
[05:22] <Talo0ot> as i rememebr there is somthing called umode a+x
[05:22] <jorge___> hello
[05:22] <Talo0ot> is this calid now
[05:23] <Talo0ot> OOD have you run it?
[05:23] <OOD> yes i ran the program
[05:23] <Talo0ot> you got interface rightr?
[05:23] <OOD> no
[05:23] <KgB_> anyone has had problems for run eclipse?
[05:24] <OOD> there is no interface
[05:24] <Kovecses> what r u guys taliking about?
[05:24] <Talo0ot> ARE YOU SURE
[05:24] <KgB_> i got that error:
[05:24] <KgB_> ./eclipse: error while loading shared libraries: libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[05:24] <OOD> i can see my screen fine, thanks
[05:24] <KgB_> but looking into the dir:
[05:25] <OOD> you want more proof?
[05:25] <OOD> look at the size of the windows version and the size of the linux version
[05:26] <KgB_> # ls /usr/lib/ | grep libgtk; libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0; libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0.800.18
[05:26] <KgB_> then libgtk is there
[05:26] <nrdb> I am trying to setup a firewall.  I can ping the both the ethernet cards on the firewall, but when I try to ping another address (the ADSL modem) I get a "host unreachable" error. :(  but the wierd thing is that none of the packet counters in iptables increase to show where the packet is going :( can someone please help in fixing this?
[05:27] <Talo0ot> noooooooooooooooo coz the cygwin file
[05:28] <sophie_> nrdb: this ight be a feature of your dsl modem where pings are not accepted like most default hardware routers
[05:28] <KgB_> how can i say to eclipse that libgtk is there?
[05:28] <Talo0ot> ok ur slnx_client create a debug file
[05:29] <nrdb> sophie_: I can ping the modem from the firewall.  but the strange thing is the iptables packet count not changing, but the ethernet interface is receiving data.
[05:31] <OOD> Talo0ot: there is no GUI in the program
[05:31] <Dr_Willis> the shell/command line is the interface :P
[05:33] <Dr_Willis> Hmm
[05:35] <wolfmanz> how do i shut down the whiptail process thats eatting about 95% of my cpu right now?
[05:36] <OOD> killall processname
[05:36] <OOD> or open ksysguard and kill it there
[05:38] <nrdb> I am trying to setup a firewall.  I can ping the both the ethernet cards on the firewall, but when I try to ping another address (the ADSL modem) I get a "host unreachable" error. :(  but the wierd thing is that the interface (eth1) is receiveing data, but none of the packet counters in iptables increase to show where the packet is going :( can someone please help in fixing this?
[05:39] <TehKewl1> where do I get kdevelop easily
[05:39] <Hawkwind> !info kdevelop

[05:40] <TehKewl1> yeah U saw it, but I want it through adept
[05:40] <TehKewl1> *I
[05:40] <Hawkwind> Ahhh, I always forget it's kdevelop3
[05:40] <Talo0ot> guys
[05:40] <Talo0ot> anyone can tech me?
[05:42] <Talo0ot> ?:
[05:43] <Hawkwind> Tech you ?
[05:43] <Talo0ot> help me
[05:44] <Talo0ot> http://www.onlyslon.org/slonax/
[05:44] <Talo0ot> there is a softhere i want to install it
[05:44] <intelikey> i have a kernel built that won't build the modules.  i have booted the kernel and am running it.  would it be ok to use a .deb of the same kernel version and move the modules to the custom /lib/modules/version ?
[05:45] <jmichaelx> is it a bad thing when sudo modprobe ndiswrapper gives no result?
[05:45] <intelikey> is there any chance that i used a different gcc version to make my kernel than the ubuntu team did ?
[05:46] <intelikey> jmichaelx no error in linux means no error
[05:46] <jmichaelx> ok
[05:46] <jmichaelx> no result=no error
[05:46] <OOD> Talo0ot: i've already told you how to run it
[05:46] <Talo0ot> trust me it didnt run
[05:47] <OOD> yes it did
[05:47] <OOD> check ksysguard if you dont beleive me
[05:47] <Talo0ot> did it create debug file
[05:47] <OOD> yes
[05:47] <intelikey> results are either information or errors    and not seeing any errors whether you see anything else or not, is good.
[05:47] <Talo0ot> ahha
[05:47] <Talo0ot> for me it didnt
[05:47] <dzachry_> My laptop overheats with kubuntu (fan does not come on). Have you heard of this problem?
[05:47] <OOD> that's probably because there's nothing to debug for you
[05:48] <OOD> run the program again
[05:48] <OOD> and check ksysguard, it'll be in the process list
[05:48] <intelikey> dzachry_ check the forums/wikis  there may be a know issue.
[05:49] <Talo0ot> i m getting bash error
[05:49] <Talo0ot> now
[05:49] <OOD> what error?
[05:49] <Talo0ot> no such file or directroy
[05:49] <Talo0ot> wait please let me fix it
[05:50] <Talo0ot> how come its on the directroy
[05:51] <OOD> Talo0ot: you have to cd into where the program is
[05:51] <Talo0ot> i know
[05:51] <Talo0ot> i did
[05:51] <Talo0ot> alos to confirm i make dir
[05:51] <Talo0ot> its on the dir
[05:52] <OOD> what?
[05:53] <Talo0ot> ok now it seams to be fine
[05:53] <bbt> i added the latest kde to source list and am having issues with it, how do i get stable branch installed instead ?
[05:53] <Talo0ot> how can i check the proccesss
[05:53] <OOD> start ksysguard and look for the program
[05:53] <OOD> kmenu->system->ksysguard
[05:53] <Talo0ot> : ./slnx_client
[05:53] <Talo0ot> is it like this the command
[05:53] <Talo0ot> ?
[05:54] <OOD> that executes the program
[05:54] <OOD> yes
[05:54] <Talo0ot> i wrote : ./slnx_client4erwer
[05:54] <Talo0ot> but its doesnt give me error msgf
[05:55] <Talo0ot> its not in the keygard
[05:55] <jmichaelx> before i give up and do yet another reinstallation of kubuntu, if anyone has any clues about broadcom wireless, please let me know. i have bcm43xx blacklisted, and the driver from dell installed in ndiswrapper. i get 'driver present, hardware present' but still no go
[05:55] <Talo0ot> ok nw it works
[05:56] <Talo0ot> it was like this./slnx_client   an i worete like this : ./slnx_client
[05:56] <OOD> jmichaelx: in case you're interested, i beleive the 2.6.17 that came out recently has native broadcom drivers
[05:56] <OOD> 2.6.17 kernel
[05:56] <Talo0ot> thanks ooooooooooooooooooooooood
[05:57] <jmichaelx> OOD: i am interested and have thought about trying to upgrade, but would that make dapper unstable?
[05:57] <Talo0ot> i love you
[05:57] <robotgeek> yeah, i'm using broadcom too. native drivers works great!
[05:57] <OOD> Talo0ot: uh, no problem
[05:57] <robotgeek> jmichaelx: why are you not using the native driver?
[05:57] <bbt> is there a way to track what has been installed in adept?
[05:58] <OOD> jmichaelx: i think it would be pretty stable, i haven't tried using a vanilla kernel myself yet
[05:58] <jmichaelx> robotgeek: i tried using the open source driver on a previous installation and it did not work.... others have told me that when it does work it is often slow
[05:58] <robotgeek> jmichaelx: i have been using it since release without issues
[05:59] <jmichaelx> i did have this card working under a previous installation with ndiswrapper, now i can't get it to work at all
[05:59] <Talo0ot> odd my friend can i do this with my OS http://www.xenocafe.com/tutorials/linux/redhat/bind_multiple_ip_addresses_to_single_nic/index.php
[05:59] <robotgeek> jmichaelx: wget http://ubuntu.cafuego.net/pool/dapper-cafuego/bcm43xx/bcm43xx-firmware_1.2-0ubuntu1_all.deb
[05:59] <jmichaelx> robotgeek: maybe i should try it again
[05:59] <robotgeek> jmichaelx: unblacklist bcm43xx, install the deb. and you should be good to go
[06:00] <robotgeek> jmichaelx: i think the only issue you might have had is firmware
[06:00] <jmichaelx> robotgeek: what card do you have? i have 4319.... truemobile 1470 dual band
[06:00] <OOD> Talo0ot: the instructions it would apply to redhat. fedora and centos
[06:00] <jmichaelx> robotgeek: i had the firmware and used fwcutter
[06:00] <OOD> so i don't know if it would work in kubuntu
[06:00] <robotgeek> jmichaelx: i have airport extreme
[06:01] <jmichaelx> what chip?
[06:01] <robotgeek> Lunar_Raven: can you please turn off those scripts
[06:01] <robotgeek> jmichaelx: bcm43xx?
[06:01] <Lunar_Raven> i was actually just testing it
[06:01] <Lunar_Raven> first time
[06:01] <Talo0ot> so its not compatble with us?
[06:01] <Lunar_Raven> haha
[06:01] <OOD> Talo0ot: don't think so
[06:01] <jmichaelx> robotgeek: it makes a difference sometimes whether it is say 4311 or 4318, etc
[06:02] <OOD> alright, gotta go
[06:02] <robotgeek> BCM4306 jmichaelx
[06:03] <jmichaelx> robotgeek: from what i understand, my 4319 may be harder to deal with, but i am open to any suggestions
[06:03] <dzachry_> How do you load the thermal module (therm_adt746x)
[06:05] <robotgeek> jmichaelx: i would first find out if it is supported, by well the native driver
[06:06] <jmichaelx> robotgeek: i'm gonna give it a whirl here, i have nothing to lose
[06:06] <robotgeek> jmichaelx: cooll, i;ll be around
[06:08] <jmichaelx> robotgeek: some of the forums seem to indicates that the os driver is reakky slow? do you have 54mbps?
[06:08] <jmichaelx> really*
[06:09] <robotgeek> jmichaelx: the os drivers works good or better than mac osx driver
[06:10] <jmichaelx> i was just reading that the os driver only allows 11mbps
[06:10] <robotgeek> no way
[06:10] <jmichaelx> hmm
[06:10] <Talo0ot> sorry i was smoking
[06:11] <robotgeek> jmichaelx: i am pretty sure that it is 54 mbps or whatever, but doesnt really matter for wireless
[06:22] <Talo0ot> guys
[06:22] <Talo0ot> how can i ping
[06:23] <Talo0ot> thanks guys i make it
[06:25] <mgayda> hola
[06:25] <wolfmanz> whats the linux version of dos edit anyone know and i mean something with a interface to it
[06:27] <lnxkde> anyone using XGL/compiz with kxdocker or engage ?
[06:29] <SpAwN> wolfmanz, like a text editor
[06:29] <SpAwN> ?
[06:33] <yuheng108> if in Ubuntu you use GTK_IM_MODULE=scim, what do you use that have the same effect in KDE?
[06:34] <wolfmanz> ya text editor
[06:35] <wolfmanz> got to reboot
[06:35] <Hawkwind> Reboot ?  Didn't know he was running Windows :P
[06:41] <ubuntu> gnomefreak: you around?
[06:43] <ubuntu> anybody around?
[06:45] <ubuntu> BonBonTheJon: you up for helping newbie in distress?
[06:46] <BonBonTheJon> I'll try
[06:46] <ubuntu> I was using kubuntu happily for a few weeks when I ran into a serious problem
[06:46] <ubuntu> it wouldn't boot up
[06:47] <ubuntu> I'm running off the CD now, btw
[06:47] <BonBonTheJon> how far did it go
[06:48] <BonBonTheJon> did it go to grub or lilo
[06:48] <ubuntu> it runs through most or all of the checklist and then stops on a black screen with "kubuntu", the symbol, and progress bar (showing no progress) in the center
[06:48] <ubuntu> I suspect two things:
[06:49] <ubuntu> 1.  I was trying to install a program and didn't get what I was looking for, so I uninstalled (all in Adept)
[06:49] <lnxkde> ubuntu : you tried installing video drivers?
[06:49] <ubuntu> no
[06:50] <BonBonTheJon> that's what I was thinking
[06:50] <BonBonTheJon> I tried switching video drivers and mine would stop then too
[06:50] <ubuntu> well why would it work, then all of a sudden not work?
[06:50] <ubuntu> I'll finish my SHORT history leading up to the problem.  maybe that will help.
[06:50] <Hawkwind> ubuntu: Did you upgrade Xorg or your kernel ?
[06:51] <Hawkwind> ubuntu: If so, then you need to update the video drivers
[06:51] <ubuntu> I don't think so
[06:51] <Hawkwind> ubuntu: You have an Nvidia or ATI video card ?
[06:51] <ubuntu> is there a way to check my history in adept?
[06:51] <lnxkde> ubuntu : you did the install youirself and updated something ?
[06:51] <ubuntu> because I uninstalled the program (which was some program for development stuff) and ALSO ITS DEPENDENTS
[06:52] <Hawkwind> ubuntu: That's probably not your problem
[06:52] <ubuntu> I did all the install/unistall in adept and it didn't ask me anything
[06:52] <Hawkwind> We've all experienced the problem.  It's due to video drivers
[06:52] <ubuntu> do you think I accidentally uninstalled something important?
[06:52] <lnxkde> yep
[06:52] <Hawkwind> Doubtful
[06:52] <ubuntu> k
[06:53] <BonBonTheJon> did you try booting in the rescue mode
[06:53] <ubuntu> not yet
[06:53] <ubuntu> well, actually I think I did.  but I;ll try again to be sure.
[06:53] <ubuntu> be right back
[06:54] <ubuntu> btw, I also suspect a problem with my hard drive.  do you guys have any disk diagnosis programs you recommend
[06:55] <BonBonTheJon> i don't know, sorry; try googling real quick
[06:55] <ubuntu> k
[06:55] <ubuntu> im going to try rescue mode.  be back soon
[06:57] <digitalslacker> anybody have good methods for freeing up some RAM without restarting?
[06:57] <Hawkwind> Close apps
[06:57] <digitalslacker> all I have open is Xchat and top in Konsole
[06:57] <Hawkwind> Why would you want to free up RAM ?  The more RAM you have used/cached the faster your system runs
[06:57] <Hawkwind> It's totally opposite of Windows
[06:59] <digitalslacker> I just don't like seeing only 4MB of free RAM
[06:59] <NDPowerBook> You need to learn how Linux manages memory.
[07:00] <Hawkwind> digitalslacker: I love seeing it like that.  That means things are cached and running like they are supposed to
[07:02] <digitalslacker> don't remember seeing it like that in Slackware
[07:03] <Hawkwind> It was the same
[07:03] <Hawkwind> All Linux distros manage it the same
[07:03] <digitalslacker> I definitely don't remember Slackware ever using the swap space, which I'm using about 91MB of swap right now
[07:04] <digitalslacker> so basically, the programs I ran 2 days ago are still in the memory? Because I haven't touched this computer in 2 days
[07:05] <Lunar_Raven> probably..
[07:05] <Lunar_Raven> once you need more it releases some of the cache ram
[07:05] <Lunar_Raven> atleast from what I understand
[07:05] <Hawkwind> digitalslacker: As long as you didn't reboot, then yes it's probably still in memory
[07:05] <Hawkwind> Lunar_Raven: That is correct
[07:07] <digitalslacker> okay, that would explain why so much is used up, I did my monthly network test last I was on this system, which probably filled the memory in a hurry
[07:13] <wolfmanz> abattoir you around?
[07:16] <ubuntu> BonBonTheJon: well, I was able to boot in recovery mode. but was lost for words at the prompt
[07:16] <ubuntu> ha
[07:17] <ubuntu> BonBonTheJon: do I need to reinstall my video drivers in recovery mode?  if so, how?
[07:19] <Admiral_Chicago> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:21] <ubuntu> Admiral_Chicago: is that for me?
[07:21] <Admiral_Chicago> ubuntu, yes
[07:22] <ubuntu> Admiral_Chicago: that will determine my video card and find the appropriate drivers?  anything else
[07:22] <Admiral_Chicago> monitor, mouse, resolutions
[07:22] <ubuntu> Admiral_Chicago: just trying to learn what I can from this unpleasant experience
[07:22] <ubuntu> thx
[07:22] <Admiral_Chicago> keyboard
[07:22] <ubuntu> will give it a shot
[07:22] <ubuntu> do you have a hard disk diagnosis program you recommend?
[07:23] <Admiral_Chicago> err what do you want to do?
[07:23] <ubuntu> I got an error on one of my boots about a I/o buffer... error on hdc
[07:23] <Admiral_Chicago> fsck?
[07:23] <ubuntu> just type that at the prompt?
[07:24] <ubuntu> very new to this
[07:24] <Admiral_Chicago> its a command that you can run from a terminal
[07:24] <ubuntu> k
[07:24] <Admiral_Chicago> File System Check
[07:24] <ubuntu> yah figured that out
[07:24] <ubuntu> I'll give both a shot.  thx
[07:24] <obf213> why doesnt kbfx work when you choose kmenu as opposed to vista or the other choice
[07:24] <Admiral_Chicago> np
[07:28] <jmichaelx> robotgeek: my wireless is up and running :-D rock and roll!
[07:29] <obf213> anyone know how i can congfigure my keyboard to add media buttons
[07:29] <obf213> or add lines to my xmodmap?
[07:33] <jesspher> does anybody here know any program in linux that supports ipod nano?
[07:34] <Lunar_Raven> does amarok?
[07:34] <Lunar_Raven> have you tried amarok? heh
[07:34] <Admiral_Chicago> gtkpod

[08:02] <ubuntu> I just tried sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[08:02] <obf213> so any idea hwo to add media buttons
[08:02] <AegeanLinux> whats your keyboard obf213?
[08:02] <ubuntu> and got an error that  xserver-xorg is not installed or incomplete
[08:02] <obf213> its a regular keybaord i think i just have media buttons on the front of the laptop
[08:03] <obf213> i found instruction on wht keycode to assign them
[08:03] <root___> ubuntu
[08:03] <root___> you need to kill X
[08:03] <root___> do it from the command line
[08:03] <obf213> but ti just said add "information" xmodmap
[08:03] <ubuntu> ?
[08:03] <root___> I just had the same issue
[08:03] <root___> i had to quit the UI
[08:03] <obf213> You can enable the extra buttons by mapping them to actions. There are many ways to do this but a quick and simple way is to insert the following lines into ~/.Xmodmap
[08:04] <obf213> i have xmodmap installed bu i dont have ~/Xmodmap :(
[08:04] <ubuntu> root___: sorry, I;m very new to linux
[08:04] <root___> then do dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[08:04] <root___> ubuntu
[08:04] <AegeanLinux> obf213:  http://www.xfree86.org/4.2.0/xmodmap.1.html#toc4
[08:04] <root___> ubuntu__are you using kubuntu as your UI?

[08:10] <Hobbsee> root___: /nick foo
[08:10] <root___> abattoir__ no, but i did set my inttab to run level 1 (multi user) i hope it solves it after i restartx
[08:10] <abattoir_> root___: if on bootup, you are dumped into a root login, see if you have 'single' as a kernel boot parameter in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[08:10] <abattoir_> root___: aah, ok
[08:10] <ubuntu> root___: so, do you know why it would say that xserver-xorg was not installed?  rem: running in recovery mode
[08:11] <AegeanLinux> ** root___ :: Kcontrol --> System Administration --> Convenience -->  Enable Auto-Login

[08:24] <apeman2020> can anyone point me to a get package repository?
[08:28] <AegeanLinux> apeman2020: what type of repo ?
[08:28] <Hobbsee> !repos
[08:28] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and !easysource
[08:28] <AegeanLinux> apeman2020: LAMP = Apache MySQL + PHP/Perl
[08:28] <abattoir> wolfmanz: tried 'dmesg'?
[08:29] <abattoir> wolfmanz: 'dmesg | less' would be more convenient
[08:29] <wolfmanz> abattoiir whats that do?
[08:30] <wolfmanz> abattoir the reason i need the log is to see why the ati fgl thing wont load up
[08:30] <abattoir> wolfmanz: it shows messages from the kernel during boot...
[08:30] <abattoir> wolfmanz: 'dmesg | grep fglrx' would help too...
[08:31] <abattoir> wolfmanz: i'm not familiar w/ ati stuff, but is it a module that X loads?
[08:32] <apeman2020> what is the package name (apt-get) for LAMP?
[08:32] <wolfmanz> abattoir i dont even know how to put the into words but i'm getting tired of trying to get this fgl crap to work
[08:33] <apeman2020> and just so eveyone knows i love miniature schnauzers!
[08:33] <AegeanLinux> apeman2020:
[08:33] <AegeanLinux> apt-get mysql
[08:33] <AegeanLinux> apt-get httpd
[08:33] <AegeanLinux> apt-get php
[08:33] <abattoir> wolfmanz: i havent used it, but doesnt easyubuntu simplify stuff?
[08:33] <abattoir> !easyubuntu
[08:33] <ubotu> easyubuntu is a script that automates installation of some items. Use at your own risk. See http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/ ; for help and discussion of easyubuntu please join #easyubuntu.
[08:35] <wolfmanz> abattoir i wish you would have said easy ubuntu a few hours ago lol
[08:35] <abattoir> wolfmanz: tbh, i never exactly knew what you wanted...
[08:35] <wolfmanz> abattoir it looks like it can do this so let me give that a try wonder if i will have to uninstall the ati driver before trying that?
[08:36] <jmichaelx> abattoir: i FINALLY got my wireless working.... using the open source driver
[08:36] <abattoir> jmichaelx: cool... :)
[08:36] <wolfmanz> i'm gonna have to start smoking dope to cope with linux lol
[08:36] <jmichaelx> wolfmanz: i'll join you
[08:36] <wolfmanz> lol
[08:37] <jmichaelx> i have never used an illegal drug in my life, but linux has made me wanna start :-P
[08:37] <wolfmanz> abattoir should i uninstall that ati driver?
[08:37] <abattoir> wolfmanz: tbh, i have no clue :P
[08:38] <abattoir> wolfmanz: i have neither used ati drivers nor easyubuntu
[08:38] <wolfmanz> man no wonder why windows is so popular lol
[08:39] <Konstable> Hrm, I've got a fresh Kubuntu 6.06 install.  When I try to open an MP3 with either amaroK or Kaffeine it just says: "playlist finished" and does not actually play the mp3.

[08:40] <abattoir> Konstable: follow those guides^^^^
[08:40] <abattoir> Konstable: essentially, you'd have to download and install libxine-extracodecs
[08:41] <abattoir> Konstable: which is in the multiverse repository....

[08:41] <Lynoure> wolfmanz: I use ati, but only the free drivers, not the closed ones.
[08:41] <abattoir> Konstable: or you can use easyubuntu to do all that for you

[08:41] <jmichaelx> lol
[08:41] <Konstable> abattoir: Excellent, thanks.
[08:41] <abattoir> Konstable: :)
[08:42] <wolfmanz> jmichaelx ya any time something should be made more friendly your a troll lol
[08:42] <Konstable> Also, is there a way to customize the shortuct items or whatever they're called in the lower left corner?
[08:42] <abattoir> Konstable: yes, right click on them, you can add new ones, remove existing ones
[08:43] <Konstable> ah, thanks again :)
[08:44] <jmichaelx> anyone know how to get video from yahoo to work?  yahoo video from AP works for me, but yahoo video from CNN, for example, does not. i have installed any relavant plugins i could find....
[08:44] <abattoir> jmichaelx: does it say something like "Works only with windows"?
[08:45] <jmichaelx> abattoir: no, lol
[08:45] <abattoir> jmichaelx: i tried playing a video of CNN... said something like that...
[08:45] <abattoir> *off
[08:45] <abattoir> or was it Windows Media Player is required...??? dont remember now
[08:46] <jmichaelx> abattoir: i have several linux PCs, and these videos work on them, but they won't on this laptop... i have no idea what i could have done differently
[08:47] <abattoir> jmichaelx: aah, ok, you have win32codecs installed?
[08:47] <jmichaelx> abattoir: well, i used automatix to install them
[08:48] <abattoir> jmichaelx: hmm, if it works in other linux pcs, i'd expect it to work w/ kubuntu as well...
[08:48] <jmichaelx> abattoir: maybe i had better check that they are there
[08:48] <abattoir> jmichaelx: are you running amd64 by any chance?
[08:48] <abattoir> jmichaelx: also a link to the site might help
[08:48] <jmichaelx> abattoir: no, a crappy celeron
[08:48] <ubuntu> apeman2020: it said that the file or directory does not exist
[08:50] <ubuntu> apeman2020:  i just did cd /etc/console/startx
[08:51] <ubuntu> apeman2020: was there supposed to be a space between start and x
[08:52] <wolfmanz> ok time to reboot and see how this went lol
[08:52] <thompa> anybody using ubuntu64, problem with realplayer?
[08:52] <jmichaelx> abattoir: you wanted a link to the videos i mentioned? they are just from www.yahoo.com
[08:52] <thompa> is it best to do firefox 32 bit install?
[08:53] <abattoir> hmm, yahoo.com has changed!!!
[08:53] <thompa> looks ill
[08:54] <ubuntu> apeman2020: and if that doesn't work, you suggest a clean install?
[08:54] <thompa> i think one of their server must be down
[08:55] <firephoto> jmichaelx: i tried a movie trailer, looks like yahoo is just doing OS detection, or specific player detection.
[08:55] <thompa> i get that in konqueror
[08:55] <abattoir> jmichaelx: i just clicked on some random link "We regret that Yahoo! Music videos are not currently supported for Macintosh. We are exploring ways to offer video on additional platforms, and hope you'll check back as we make enhancements to the service"
[08:56] <thompa> just unclick send browser id in konq.
[08:56] <jmichaelx> abattoir: yeah, i think the music videos are a different situation. i'll get something figured out for the news clips
[08:56] <ubuntu> do you guys like ubuntu or kubuntu?  i've been trying kubuntu, but if I end up having to reinstall is there any reason to switch?
[08:56] <thompa> reinstall what?
[08:56] <abattoir> ubuntu: you are in #kubuntu, most people would obviously say kubuntu :P
[08:57] <StrudelNinja> hey, I'm a total linux n00b and I just got kubuntu. I'm having problems when I try to add firefox, I get "There was an error commiting changes. Possibly there was a problem downloading some packages or the commit would break packages."
[08:57] <StrudelNinja> ...what does that mean
[08:57] <jmichaelx> ubuntu: it is just personal preference
[08:57] <[xt] > if you install "kubuntu" or "ubuntu" it's not like you can't easily switch b/w gnome and kde either way if you want to, right ?
[08:57] <firephoto> StrudelNinja: did you "fetch updates" first?
[08:58] <jmichaelx> ubuntu: i actually like xfce4 really well
[08:58] <thompa> ubuntu: just install one or the other, you can add the other easily in a couple of minutes and switch between the two
[08:58] <thompa> i have a probelm with xfce4 after installing compiz though
[08:58] <StrudelNinja> firephoto: yeah, no good though
[08:59] <ubuntu> thx guys
[08:59] <thompa> is anybody running the 64 bit version here?
[08:59] <firephoto> StrudelNinja: what version of firefox is it trying to install?
[09:00] <StrudelNinja> firephoto: <IP_ADDRESS>
[09:01] <firephoto> does adept show any 'upgradable' packages ?
[09:02] <StrudelNinja> not that I know of
[09:02] <firephoto> it should say at the bottom of the window.
[09:03] <StrudelNinja> 0 upgradable
[09:03] <firephoto> i'm pretty sure mine just updated today (firefox) along with some other packages.
[09:05] <firephoto> StrudelNinja: did you click the 'show details' button when it's installing and see if it says anything else when it fails?
[09:07] <StrudelNinja> is there any way to see a log of it? I click apply and it's instantly at that error
[09:09] <firephoto> StrudelNinja: if you click the details on the firefox package it should show you a list of packages that are required or conflicting.
[09:10] <StrudelNinja> yeah, there's 1 conflict
[09:11] <StrudelNinja> and a bunch of required
[09:11] <wolfmanz> abattoir no go on the easy ubuntu in terms of the ati drivers
[09:12] <firephoto> StrudelNinja: uninstall the mozilla-firefox package if you have it
[09:13] <StrudelNinja> it's not installed
[09:14] <firephoto> what about other packages? is there more than just firefox that's getting installed? maybe one of them has a confict?
[09:15] <StrudelNinja> when I request firefox it adds some libpango things, lemme try installing without them
[09:16] <StrudelNinja> that didn't work
[09:16] <StrudelNinja> cancelling them cancels firefox, too
[09:18] <SpAwN> hello all i added the repo for the new kde.........and now when i do ap-get update i get this
[09:18] <SpAwN> http://pastebin.ca/106287
[09:19] <SpAwN> i added "deb http://kubuntu.org/packages/kde-354/ dapper main" to the source list
[09:19] <[xt] > So kubuntu has a "wireless assistant" but it seems to me to not be very useful for setting up a wireless network
[09:20] <firephoto> SpAwN: http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde-353.php you need jriddell's key..
[09:20] <[xt] > for instance, if the SSID isn't broadcast, wlassistant isn't interested in helping me
[09:20] <SpAwN> firephoto, ahh k thanks
[09:21] <StrudelNinja> I didn't know that linux would be this confusing :/
[09:22] <Lunar_Raven> those other programs are called dependencies
[09:22] <Lunar_Raven> you can't get rid of them
[09:22] <Lunar_Raven> or firefox wont run
[09:22] <SpAwN> crap i think i mucked somthing up....i added the key now i get this when i do apt-get upgrade http://pastebin.ca/106288
[09:23] <Lunar_Raven> !firefox
[09:23] <ubotu> firefox is the default web-browser on Ubuntu. To install the latest version, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion Installing plugins: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxPlugins
[09:23] <[xt] > I don't think kubuntu even installed firefox for me
[09:23] <Lunar_Raven> it doesnt by default
[09:24] <StrudelNinja> I just wanna get firefox and gaim tonight, then I'll be happy
[09:25] <Lunar_Raven> should be pretty simple with adept
[09:25] <Lunar_Raven> does it not install
[09:25] <Lunar_Raven> ?
[09:25] <SpAwN> weird i tried the gui updater and its actualy dling things...wonder if it will actualy work
[09:25] <StrudelNinja> it doesn't even have gAIM and I'm getting an error with firefox
[09:25] <[xt] > what the heck just happened
[09:25] <farous> StrudelNinja: you can just sudo apt-get install firefox gaim in a terminal
[09:26] <Tm_T> adept is pretty good nowadays but it's not perfect, so I stick with apt-get
[09:26] <StrudelNinja> E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[09:26] <StrudelNinja> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[09:26] <StrudelNinja> when I try firefox
[09:27] <StrudelNinja> wait I know
[09:27] <firephoto> StrudelNinja: you have to quit adept
[09:27] <StrudelNinja> I left adapt open
[09:27] <farous> StrudelNinja: close adept before you do that or the update manager
[09:27] <StrudelNinja> bear with me please, I'm new to this
[09:27] <StrudelNinja> heh
[09:28] <StrudelNinja> apparently I need some dependencies
[09:28] <Lunar_Raven> :P
[09:28] <Lunar_Raven> yes
[09:29] <StrudelNinja> how do I get them, the same way?
[09:29] <farous> StrudelNinja: this will be installed automatically for you
[09:29] <StrudelNinja>   firefox: Depends: libatk1.0-0 (>= 1.9.0) but it is not installable
[09:29] <StrudelNinja>            Depends: libgtk2.0-0 (>= 2.8.0) but it is not going to be installed
[09:30] <StrudelNinja> I think I'm missing something
[09:31] <farous> !info libgtk2
[09:31] <ubotu> Package libgtk2 does not exist in dapper
[09:32] <geneo93> !libgtk+
[09:32] <ubotu> I know nothing about libgtk+ - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[09:32] <farous> !info libgtk2.0
[09:33] <ubotu> Package libgtk2.0 does not exist in dapper

[09:34] <farous> StrudelNinja: it is in the main repos so how come it does not show
[09:35] <StrudelNinja> I have no idea
[09:35] <bbt> what repo do i need to enable to get the dev kernel 2.6.17 ?
[09:35] <farous> StrudelNinja: can you use the pastebin to paste your /etc/apt/sources.list file
[09:35] <farous> StrudelNinja: you can also try first sudo apt-get update
[09:36] <farous> StrudelNinja: then sudo apt-get install firefox gaim
[09:36] <stanks> good morning all
[09:37] <StrudelNinja> updated and it didn't fix my firefox problem
[09:37] <StrudelNinja> E: Couldn't find package gaim
[09:37] <StrudelNinja> so gaim isn't working either ><
[09:37] <farous> i think gaim is also in main repos

[09:38] <StrudelNinja> I have no idea if I did
[09:39] <SpAwN> i knoticed when i didnt have a internet connection during the install...it commented out all sources by default
[09:39] <farous> StrudelNinja: you have to edit the /etc/apt/sources.list file either manually or using adept to enable the net repos
[09:39] <SpAwN> updates main and the rest...i had to manualy uncomment them
[09:39] <StrudelNinja> alright

[09:56] <MilhousePunkRock> Does anyone know a place to get sound schemes from other than KDE-look.org?
[09:57] <AegeanLinux> customize.org
[09:57] <MilhousePunkRock> Thx AegeanLinux!
[09:57] <AegeanLinux> np
[09:58] <euan> Hi there guys
[09:58] <MilhousePunkRock> AegeanLinux: That's for the "enemy"... How do I make .ogg's from the .wav's I will probably get there...
[09:58] <MilhousePunkRock> Hey euan!
[09:59] <Werdna> hi guys, anybody know where the firefox package sticks a shortcut/launcher?
[09:59] <euan> First timer here...be kind...
[09:59] <AegeanLinux> That bit I still have to work out MilhousePunkRock ;)
[09:59] <AegeanLinux> everyone, that mean euan is a n00b, BE MEAN!
[09:59] <MilhousePunkRock> lol AegeanLinux...
[10:00] <MilhousePunkRock> euan: Don't be shy, this is _the_ place where newbies get help... And not everyone is as unfriendly as AegeanLinux... :-P
[10:00] <AegeanLinux> MilhousePunkRock: Thats the last time i give __you__ help MilhousePunkRock
[10:01] <AegeanLinux> you scared him off!
[10:01] <MilhousePunkRock> AegeanLinux: You just lost one beta tester...
[10:01] <wolfmanz> Finally got the drivers installed
[10:01] <Lynoure> beta tester?
[10:05] <MilhousePunkRock> For his distro, Lynoure...
[10:05] <MilhousePunkRock> Look at his part message
[10:08] <euan> the n00b is back...
[10:10] <euan> Anyone here with patience for a n00bie?
[10:11] <MilhousePunkRock> euan: What's the matter? I am a noob myself, but maybe I can help...
[10:11] <euan> Just need help with a few insall issues.
[10:12] <euan> Install
[10:12] <euan> Namely printers
[10:14] <TheHighChild> anyone know of an external sound card that works well witht tux?
[10:15] <AegeanLinux> Sound Blaster Zs2
[10:15] <AegeanLinux> SB Live!
[10:15] <TheHighChild> I am sound card stupid, is that the same card or two different ones?
[10:16] <wolfmanz> two different ones
[10:17] <TheHighChild> which works better?
[10:17] <wolfmanz> depends
[10:17] <wolfmanz> for your basic audio i would go with the SB becasue it would be cheap to buy
[10:18] <oomph> anyone know how to add support for a secondary language on an xubuntu box?
[10:18] <TheHighChild> ok. What I want is an external card so I can switch inputs. I'd live to set up a phone system on my Kubuntu box. Not sure how I am gonna do that yet though
[10:18] <wolfmanz> if you want more fancy stuff get the zs2
[10:18] <TheHighChild> ok, the SB Live!
[10:18] <wolfmanz> phone system?
[10:19] <TheHighChild> I'd like to route my telephone through my box, setup a voicemail/messaging machine
[10:19] <wolfmanz> you will need PBX software for that no?
[10:20] <oomph> TheHighChild tribox is good for that
[10:20] <TheHighChild> Nah, that's for setting up a whole phone system
[10:20] <TheHighChild> oomph: awesome, thanks
[10:20] <TheHighChild> will check it out.
[10:21] <oomph> tribox is a pbx distro though, may not be what your looking for
[10:21] <TheHighChild> wolfmanz: A PBX is an entire exhange
[10:21] <TheHighChild> I just want voicemail so I don't miss any interviews
[10:21] <TheHighChild> oh ok
[10:21] <TheHighChild> Just looking for an answering machine. lol.Might have to run something with Wine
[10:22] <wolfmanz> hmmm well i dont know how your honna do that with a SB card
[10:22] <oomph> is your phone VoIP?
[10:22] <TheHighChild> no, landline
[10:22] <TheHighChild> the card is only so I can switch sound outputs easily from speak to headphone. I'm in the early stages
[10:23] <oomph> how do you plan to forward the landline calls to your PC?
[10:23] <TheHighChild> I plan to route them through my PC
[10:23] <AegeanLinux> !Pastebin > apeman2020
[10:23] <oomph> just using a modem?
[10:23] <TheHighChild> Yeah
[10:24] <TheHighChild> http://linuxgazette.net/120/smith.html
[10:26] <wolfmanz> that looks like alot of work you should just by a answering machine
[10:27] <TheHighChild> lol. It's about pwning. Ultimately I want to have it reference incoming callswith an addressbook, add them and then forward calls based on rules
[10:27] <TheHighChild> If I wanted to just buy an answering machine, I would probably be using a mac, or worse, right now
[10:28] <oomph> http://linux.softpedia.com/get/Communications/Fax/TkVoice-066.shtml
[10:28] <arso> is skype on linux as good as windowS?
[10:28] <arso> !skype
[10:28] <ubotu> To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Skype To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto
[10:28] <oomph> yeah
[10:28] <arso> cul
[10:28] <oomph> skype is pretty good on linux
[10:28] <arso> its awesome, sound quality rox
[10:29] <TheHighChild> Nice! THanks oomph
[10:29] <AegeanLinux> MilhousePunkRock: how did the sound theme go?
[10:29] <TheHighChild> I have a landline with my DSL and it's one hundreds of resumes. I don't really trust broadband enough to replace my landline
[10:29] <Ace2005> hi AegeanLinux
[10:29] <AegeanLinux> hi Ace2005
[10:29] <Ace2005> brb
[10:29] <MilhousePunkRock> AegeanLinux: I am checking it now... The "female robot voice" is too robotic for me though
[10:29] <AegeanLinux> :D Maybe that's the point ;)
[10:30] <AegeanLinux> just a thought :D
[10:30] <Lynoure> Sometimes skype sound quality is horrible (eapecially with long distances, busy time of the day and no static public port on either skype client)
[10:30] <oomph> arso i had an issue with skype not working sometimes and having to reboot
[10:30] <oomph> but i think it was fixed in the last release
[10:30] <arso> oomph:  how do i instal it/
[10:30] <arso> oomph: its not available with apt-get or synaptic right?
[10:31] <oomph> there is a source you can i believe
[10:31] <wolfmanz> easy ubuntu will install skype as well
[10:31] <arso> how
[10:32] <Ace2005> ok i'm back
[10:32] <wolfmanz> arso you want skype?
[10:32] <arso> ya
[10:32] <wolfmanz> goto google and do a search for easy ubuntu
[10:32] <arso> k
[10:32] <wolfmanz> when you get that installed it will do skype for you along with a bunch of other stuff if ya want
[10:33] <AegeanLinux> !easyubuntu > arso
[10:33] <wolfmanz> i just used it to get all my codecs for video lol it worked well for that
[10:33] <Ace2005> or you could search for ubuntu skybe deb sources list, or source list generator skype
[10:33] <arso> interesting
[10:33] <arso> easyubuntu is safe?
[10:33] <oomph> getautomatix has skype too i believe
[10:34] <wolfmanz> wished i would have known about easy ubuntu whenj i first installed kubuntu would have saved mne alot of questions lol
[10:34] <oomph> arso dunno i never used easy ubuntu
[10:34] <oomph> arso ive used automatix with no problems but ive heard its buggy and broken a few installs
[10:34] <arso> !automatix
[10:34] <ubotu> Automatix is a script that automates installation of some items. Use at your own risk. For help with and discussion of automatix please join #automatix.
[10:35] <oomph> worked for me though
[10:35] <arso> ic
[10:35] <Ace2005> for skype add this to your sources list: deb http://download.skype.com/linux/repos/debian/ stable non-free
[10:35] <Ace2005> i think its the best way
[10:36] <arso> i am in easyubuntu now
[10:36] <MilhousePunkRock> AegeanLinux: The "female voice media" was almost, what I am looking for...
[10:36] <oomph> Ace2005 is probably right
[10:36] <Ace2005> See all you have to do is google: http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=cokezero&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&rls=Swiftfox:en-US:unofficial&client=firefox-a
[10:37] <Ace2005> its the third result
[10:38] <Ace2005> what the hell, why is that search for coke zero?!?!?
[10:38] <oomph> anyone here know how to add a secondary language?
[10:38] <Ace2005> Sorry about that, it should be this one: http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&hs=5il&client=firefox-a&rls=Swiftfox:en-US:unofficial&sa=X&oi=spell&resnum=0&ct=result&cd=1&q=ubuntu+skype+deb+sources+list&spell=1
[10:39] <oomph> for example: i want a desktop in spanish for my cousin to use
[10:39] <oomph> i dunno how to enable that :P
[10:39] <MilhousePunkRock> oomph: I guess you would create another user account and change the language there...
[10:39] <nrdb> I am trying to get a firewall to work.  I have setup iptables what I think is correct.  I can ping both the firewal NICs but cant ping the ADSL modem.  I put LOG actions in all iptables chains, but the ping isn't showing in any of the chains :( how can this be.
[10:40] <oomph> perhaps
[10:41] <MilhousePunkRock> oomph: Do you like the band that happens to have the same name?
[10:41] <vigilante_> do I need cipherfunk for win32, or is that in universe/multiverse also?
[10:41] <oomph> MilhousePunkRock never heard of them actually, oomph has been my FPS name when I smurf
[10:42] <oomph> been using it since quakeworld, heh
[10:42] <MilhousePunkRock> Hehe...
[10:42] <purple> does anyone get the 537epmodem to work under kubuntu?
[10:42] <MilhousePunkRock> Did you try to create a new account and change the language there?
[10:43] <oomph> im gonna try that in a sec
[10:43] <oomph> im installing automatix on it now :P
[10:43] <Ellie1> hi

[10:54] <arso> thnx*
[10:55] <vigilante_> AegeanLinux: so should I add the extra kubuntu kde repo if I want 3.5.3?
[10:55] <oomph> MilhousePunkRock adding a user doesnt give option for spanish
[10:55] <AegeanLinux> vigilante_: I would not warry about KDE 3.5.3
[10:55] <oomph> at least in xubuntu
[10:55] <AegeanLinux> not much use of it :D
[10:55] <vigilante_> AegeanLinux: it has bug fixes
[10:56] <MilhousePunkRock> oomph: Well, I am only "familiar" with KDE, but you probably have to install the locale first
[10:56] <vigilante_> I will wait though
[10:56] <vigilante_> Ok, what about media support, should I add PLF, Cipherfunk, or sevseas for needed for libdvd win32 and such?
[10:57] <arso> oh screw it
[10:57] <arso> i;ll use it on windows
[10:57] <oomph> yeah
[10:57] <oomph> i may try that as well
[10:58] <AegeanLinux> vigilante_: If you talk like that , KDE 3.5.4 has bug fixes :D
[10:58] <AegeanLinux> BRB,
[11:04] <nrdb> I am trying to get a firewall to work.  I have setup iptables what I think is correct.  I can ping both the firewal NICs but cant ping the ADSL modem.  I put LOG actions in all iptables chains, but the ping isn't showing in any of the chains :( how can this be.
[11:06] <AegeanLinux> @ apeman2020 Thanks again man!
[11:10] <yml> Hello goodmorning from Paris,
[11:11] <Ace2005> Good Morning :)
[11:12] <yml> I am almost ready to format yet another computer with windows pre installed
[11:12] <apeman2020>  what is the command for starting and stopping apache again?
[11:12] <tsdgeos>  /etc/init.d/httpd restart
[11:12] <tsdgeos> guessing
[11:12] <tsdgeos> with sudo
[11:13] <yml> I am so far using a a live cd of Kubuntu and I trying to get the wireless working
[11:14] <yml> so far with limited success the wireless card is shown iwconfig
[11:15] <yml> I used wlassitant but it is failling without giving me much usefull information
[11:15] <MilhousePunkRock> yml: On the Live CD I managed to connect to the WiFi with the "Radio network assistant" (probably a wrong translation)
[11:16] <MilhousePunkRock> yml: Do you know your wireless device's chipset?
[11:16] <yml> How can I know this?
[11:17] <yml> iwconfig send me back ipw2100 as nickname for this conection
[11:19] <MilhousePunkRock> yml: So this would be your driver http://ipw2100.sourceforge.net/ (if it's not included in Kubuntu)
[11:20] <vigilante_> AegeanLinux: some reason not to update to 3.5.3?
[11:20] <tsdgeos> MilhousePunkRock: sure it's not inlcuded?
[11:21] <yml> MilhousePunkRock> Since iwconfig detects it does that means that this driver is installed?
[11:21] <tsdgeos> apt-file search ipw2100.ko tells me the linux-image packages include it
[11:21] <tsdgeos> maybe he just needs the firmaware
[11:22] <MilhousePunkRock> tsdgeos, yml: That's why I said "_IF_ it's not included", my Wireless NIC uses madwifi
[11:22] <tsdgeos> MilhousePunkRock: ah :-D did not see the if :D
[11:22] <MilhousePunkRock> yml: Maybe it's having troube with the encryption?
[11:22] <MilhousePunkRock> brb Coffee Refil
[11:24] <MilhousePunkRock> yml: What encryption do you use on your WLAN?
[11:24] <yml> MilhousePunkRock>	I am using wep
[11:25] <MilhousePunkRock> And you are still on the LiveCD?
[11:26] <yml> MilhousePunkRock>	Yes, it is the first time I am using this. And it it great
[11:26] <vigilante_> anybody use kxdocker from Edgy? (v1.1.4)
[11:27] <MilhousePunkRock> yml: The reason why I chose Kubuntu was that it in fact recognised my WLAN on the LiveCD already, all I had to do was entering the WEP key
[11:28] <yml> MilhousePunkRock> This is why I am trying kubuntu  :-)
[11:30] <MilhousePunkRock> Since tsdgeos said, the drivers you need were included, why not give it a shot and install it, yml? Setting up the WLAN for an installed system shouln't be too hard...
[11:31] <voicu> Can I mount an ext3 partition RW for anyone?
[11:31] <yml> MilhousePunkRock> This is where I am I found on the link you sent some debian package
[11:31] <yml> stable, testing , unstable
[11:32] <MilhousePunkRock> yml: Maybe you don't even need those...  I am not sure what of it is already included...
[11:33] <yml> What do you think I need to do?
[11:33] <yml> I am not really familiar with debian or ubuntu architecture or packaging system
[11:33] <MilhousePunkRock> yml: You should install Kubuntu and see how your Wireless behaves than... Once you have it set up you come back here and we can try to make it work...
[11:33] <yml> I am used to mandrake
[11:35] <yml> ok I see but I would like to see before :-) because this is the exact reason I am going to move to kubuntu, if it work. I have a pretty old version of mandrake where I never manage to get the wireless working.
[11:36] <yml> Thank you for your help
[11:36] <MilhousePunkRock> yml: I am sure it is possible, since you even have native drivers and they already seem to be included... It's just some fine tuning (I hope)...
[11:37] <yml> ok great this is giving me hope
[11:38] <MilhousePunkRock> yml: BTW, how are you here if you Wireless doesn't work yet?
[11:38] <yml> many computer at home
[11:38] <yml> :-)
[11:38] <yml> also the lan is working just fine from the live cd
[11:38] <MilhousePunkRock> Ah, ok.. I thought you might be using ethernet now...
[11:39] <MilhousePunkRock> yml: Maybe that's why wireless doesn't work, since you can only have one DHCP instance at a time AFAIK (I might be wrong though)
[11:39] <yml> I am not using DHCP
[11:40] <yml> but fix IP
[11:40] <fede> ciao. sono in prova
[11:40] <MilhousePunkRock> !it
[11:40] <ubotu> Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[11:41] <Tm_T> ciao a tutti!
[11:41] <Tm_T> I apologize, that won't happen again
[11:42] <yml> Cu
[11:45] <voicu> Can someone tell me how do I mount an ext3 partition so that any user can write it? I mean creating directories in the root of the partition, etc
[11:47] <BusMaster> hi..I just installed Kubuntu and some settings are not the same as stock KDE  3.5 Is there a way to go back to the original settings?
[11:48] <pulsar_> Hi.
[11:48] <pulsar_> Any firefox users in here?
[11:49] <Martijn81> voicu: why would one need permission to make directories in root? You should just give them there own /home/user place
[11:50] <Martijn81> * their
[11:50] <abattoir> BusMaster: like konqueror's profile for eg.?
[11:50] <BusMaster> abattoir: exactly
[11:50] <abattoir> BusMaster: http://kubuntu.org/faq.php#konqueror
[11:51] <BusMaster> abattoir: thanks
[11:51] <abattoir> BusMaster: :)
[11:53] <voicu> Martijn81: i'm not talking about the / root, the root of another partition I have. It's mounted in /hd/hdb4 and doesn't give access to anyone but root.
[11:54] <abattoir> pulsar_: what do you want to know?
[11:54] <pulsar_> Any freshly installed firefox from mozilla.com is branded by default, and I'd like to know why to get rid of it. :)
[11:55] <abattoir> pulsar_: 'branded'.... with?
[11:55] <vodex> Hiya, computing expert but linux newb here -how do I enable sound with a fresh install? I have mboard-based sound but also a PCI card, can't get any sound to work at all
[11:55] <Martijn81> voicu: oops, sorry about that. Yeah that level of permission is configured in the file /etc/fstab
[11:55] <pulsar_> abattoir: Ubuntu's customization (startpage, bookmarks, *icon*)
[11:56] <IMEC> how can i get the keyboard layout (on kde of course)to change on alt_shift? it does not seem to work when i change it from there...
[11:56] <abattoir> pulsar_: even the ones from mozilla.com?
[11:57] <pulsar_> abattoir: Yes. I downloaded firefox-<IP_ADDRESS>.tar.gz, untarred it into /opt, mv'ed my profile and /etc/firefox out of the way and voila: When starting it, it's branded.
[11:57] <IMEC> also i have put     Option         "XkbOptions" "grp:alt_shift_toggle"
[11:58] <IMEC> in xorg.conf but that does not seam to work either
[11:58] <abattoir> pulsar_: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=199193
[11:58] <voicu> Martijn81: I know about /etc/fstab but what do I write? I looked on the net, in man pages. Nothing about that. Plus, Kubuntu configured it during the initial install. Shouldn't that make at least readable?
[11:59] <pulsar_> abattoir: Yeaah, I know that I can change that icon afterwards. But I'd expect a fresh installed mozilla.com firefox to have it already shipped.
[11:59] <vodex> !sound
[11:59] <ubotu> If sound is not working, first try system -> prefrences -> multimedia system selector change it to alsa. If you still have problems then look at http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingSoundProblems
[12:00] <grothesk> Is someone familiar with the kde 3.5.4 packages? Riddell maybe?
[12:00] <Martijn81> voicu: nope, the installation doesn't know what kind of files are located there so it's assumed to be safer to not grant permission
[12:00] <Martijn81> !fstab
[12:00] <ubotu> The /etc/fstab file lists all drives and partitions that are mounted on the system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !partitions
[12:00] <abattoir> pulsar_: i guess you should ask mozilla or the ubuntu devs about that...
[12:02] <pulsar_> I'll give it a try, abattoir. Thanks for your help anyway.
[12:02] <abattoir> pulsar_: np :)
