[12:05] <HymnToLife> ozrg> ant at which moment exactly do you hve the error (and what exactly does it say) ?
[12:05] <halfbakedntx> LordMelkor: I had a cheapo Mic and it sucked even w/WinXP.. bought a $25 mic and it works great
[12:05] <HymnToLife> can you run the partitioner at all ?
[12:05] <Phoul> halfbakedntx, what kind of mic?
[12:05] <eXIstenZ> Can anyone recommend me a good CD Burning program?
[12:06] <HymnToLife> eXIstenZ> k3b
[12:06] <halfbakedntx> Phoul: Logitec
[12:06] <Phoul> Im using a M20 microphone it works good but i still need audio gain n shit to make it less quiet
[12:06] <Phoul> Nice
[12:06] <flux___> k3b is kde
[12:06] <Phoul> Im buying one soon this one is on its way out i think
[12:06] <ufo> eXIstenZ, graveman is something you could try
[12:06] <LordMelkor> halfbakedntx: no comp store nearby so its a pain to go out and buy one (or wait for one ordered online) and this mic worked great with Win98 so i figure i wanna use what i have
[12:06] <HymnToLife> so what ?
[12:06] <ozrg> HymnToLife: right at the beginning when i restart the pc and put the cd in. it says; search for USB HDD devices.
[12:06] <HymnToLife> It's still the best burning app on linux
[12:06] <ufo> k3b is good
[12:06] <halfbakedntx> LordMelkor: Hrm yeah I dunno what to tell you..
[12:06] <ParaSiteXY> does anyone knows an alternative ftp-client? I am using gftp right now, but it seems that it does not copy folders.
[12:06] <flux___> eXIstenZ, GnomeBaker
[12:07] <HymnToLife> ozrg> external CD drive ?
[12:07] <LordMelkor> Phoul: what does kmix do
[12:07] <ozrg> HymnToLife: i have none.
[12:07] <HymnToLife> no f***ing way
[12:07] <HymnToLife> gnomebacker sucks ass
[12:07] <halfbakedntx> Ok I gotta get back to work :(  Cheers all
[12:07] <HymnToLife> ozrg> then try disabling the USB boot in your BIOs
[12:07] <LordMelkor> k3b is like the Nero of linux
[12:07] <ufo> ParaSiteXY, do you use gnome?
[12:07] <Ryan_is_here> hey
[12:07] <HymnToLife> yeah
[12:07] <ParaSiteXY> ufo yes
[12:07] <Ryan_is_here> ok i have a big problem
[12:07] <Phoul> LordMelkor, if your on kde it has the sound gain
[12:07] <ozrg> ok.
[12:07] <HymnToLife> really, k3b is a million times better than GB
[12:08] <Ryan_is_here> i installed a new video card that seems to be working fine with my windows
[12:08] <LordMelkor> Phoul: is there an equivalent for gnome?
[12:08] <Ryan_is_here> but ubuntu wont load the graphical interface
[12:08] <flux___> HymnToLife, i wouldn't know, i use the console
[12:08] <Phoul> gmix
[12:08] <Ryan_is_here> can anyone help me
[12:08] <HymnToLife> LordMelkor> you _can_ install it on gnome
[12:08] <iReALLyGotNoTime> I thougt Nero for Linux was the Nero for Linux?
[12:08] <ufo> you could connect with places--->network location or something
[12:08] <ParaSiteXY> ufo: why did you asked?
[12:08] <ttread> Ryan_is_here, what's your card?
[12:08] <HymnToLife> flux___> how do you burn CDs then ?
[12:08] <Ryan_is_here> radeon 9600
[12:08] <jetscreamer> why would anybody buy nero for linux, just out of curiosity
[12:09] <iReALLyGotNoTime> Ok that was sarcastic and troll-like I am sorry
[12:09] <iReALLyGotNoTime> K3b is quite good :)
[12:09] <HymnToLife> iReALLyGotNoTime> the nero for linux is even worse than the nautilus builtin burner
[12:09] <polpak> Phoul, did you still want a screeny?
[12:09] <iReALLyGotNoTime> LOL
[12:09] <Psykus> k3b is for kde, right?
[12:09] <LordMelkor> iReALLyGotNoTime it was just a comparison its not really nero
[12:09] <Phoul> polpak, yes
[12:09] <flux___> HymnToLife, man cdrecord
[12:09] <ttread> !ati
[12:09] <ubotu> well, ati is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI or http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=24557&page=1&pp=10 or http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=423589
[12:09] <jetscreamer> k3b is for anything
[12:09] <Psykus> oh
[12:09] <Phoul> pm me please because its hard to keep up with this convo
[12:09] <jetscreamer> you'll need some kde libs to go with it
[12:09] <Psykus> i figured with the "K", it might be made for kde
[12:09] <jetscreamer> but they come by theirselves
[12:09] <HymnToLife> flux___> if I remeber well
[12:10] <iReALLyGotNoTime> LordMelkor, I knew it, I was out of place trying to be funny :) bad choice of sarcasm :)
[12:10] <HymnToLife> k3b uses cdrecord
[12:10] <jetscreamer> yeah it was origially
[12:10] <jetscreamer> or so
[12:10] <Ryan_is_here> where do i paste that to use it
[12:10] <ttread> Ryan_is_here, check that wiki link
[12:10] <jetscreamer> still is, but you can run it w/o having a full blown kde install
[12:10] <HymnToLife> Psykus> it is
[12:10] <LordMelkor> iReALLyGotNoTime sarcasm is so hard to detect in online chat -__-
[12:10] <HymnToLife> but KDE apps run very well on Gnome and vice versa
[12:10] <eXIstenZ> Can anyone link me to a good sources.list list?
[12:10] <ttread> Ryan_is_here, open it in a www browser
[12:10] <Psykus> oh ok
[12:10] <Ryan_is_here> ok
[12:11] <Ryan_is_here> one second
[12:11] <Psykus> grabbing it off of apt-get now
[12:11] <HymnToLife> eXIstenZ> here's mine : "An infinite number of monkeys typing into GNU Emacs would never make a good program... except for MS Paint, of course. That's a keeper."
[12:11] <Psykus> oh how I love apt-get
[12:11] <HymnToLife> damn
[12:11] <HymnToLife> c/p error
[12:11] <HymnToLife> http://membres.lycos.fr/mafiaboy03/sources.list
[12:11] <Ryan_is_here> thanks ttread
[12:11] <maxkelley> say, how would I set up bind to point one.craplandia.be to a certain compy on my lan, and two.craplandia.be to another one ?
[12:11] <Ryan_is_here> ill give that a shot
[12:11] <ttread> ok Ryan_is_here, yw
[12:11] <maxkelley> they're both running on the same external IP...
[12:12] <maxkelley> is it even possible?
[12:12] <HymnToLife> it is
[12:12] <maxkelley> how
[12:12] <HymnToLife> if you bought a domain name which allows subdomains
[12:12] <HymnToLife> I don't know how though :/
[12:12] <maxkelley> creating an A record that points to 192.168.x.y ?
[12:12] <maxkelley> i have a domain name.. the craplandia.be one.
[12:13] <wickers> HymnToLife, any domain 'supports' subdomains...
[12:13] <Kr4t05> That man page for date makes no sence to me. :/
[12:13] <maxkelley> all you have to do is configure them :)
[12:13] <LordMelkor> kmix or gmix doesnt seem to be in the repos... so i got xmix.... lol hopefully it will do what i want it to
[12:13] <wickers> subdomain support is on the host level. Not domain level.
[12:13] <maxkelley> sillywabbit..
[12:13] <Kr4t05> Can someone tell me exactly how I set the date to 'Thu Mar 9 10:05:35 2006'?
[12:13] <HymnToLife> wickers> I know some domain name services who don't
[12:13] <HymnToLife> you just have www.yourdomain.com and that's all
[12:13] <wickers> HymnToLife, you know of some hosts that don't...
[12:14] <HymnToLife> well maybe
[12:14] <maxkelley> www is a subdomain of yourdomain.com
[12:14] <Jarigo> hey, is dapper okay to use?
[12:14] <HymnToLife> I'm not very much into it
[12:14] <maxkelley> did you know *that*?
[12:14] <maxkelley> Jarigo: sure :)
[12:14] <selinium> qp
[12:14] <flux___> Kr4t05, australian?
[12:14] <Jarigo> maxkelley, how do i try it?
[12:14] <selinium> qpqp
[12:14] <Jarigo> !dapper
[12:14] <HymnToLife> given I'm on dialup, such things are quite useless for me :D
[12:14] <sistema> espaol
[12:14] <ubotu> rumour has it, dapper is the pre-release name for next edition of Ubuntu, release name 6.04. Due 20th April. It is Development Software - May Break! > /join #ubuntu+1 for IRC Use  http://tinyurl.com/rtgxo for easy updates
[12:14] <maxkelley> it's pretty stable, or so I've heard
[12:14] <heyjoe2> hey, can anyone tell me some commands to make my system start up quicker. it seems to be stalling on the raid devices part
[12:14] <Kr4t05> flux___: The server I'm connecting to is.
[12:14] <sistema> hablan espaol aqui
[12:14] <HymnToLife> !es
[12:14] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[12:14] <Kr4t05> flux___: And the goofy IRCd's need to have the same system time.
[12:15] <heyjoe2> someone told me some earlier and it worked, but now its taking a while again
[12:15] <flux___> man date ?
[12:15] <flux___> lol
[12:15] <wickers> HymnToLife, any request you send to sub.domain.com first goes to domain.com then it gets sorted out by local DNS servers... it's host related.
[12:15] <Kr4t05> flux___: Read it, I didn't get it. :/
[12:15] <Seveas> wickers, not completely true
[12:16] <wickers> Segarra, but for the sake of simplicity..
[12:16] <wickers> err...
[12:16] <wickers> Seveas, I meant.
[12:16] <wickers> ^^
[12:16] <Seveas>
[12:16] <heyjoe2> can someone help me with making my bootup quicker?
[12:17] <flux___> Kr4t05,  date -d "Thu Mar 9 10:11:08 EST 2006"
[12:17] <wickers> I mean to say that it's set first on the host level... how  it trickles down the DNS path is a different story.
[12:17] <maxkelley> ohmygod  i love that smiley.
[12:17] <eXIstenZ> How can I install flash for firefox 1.5?
[12:18] <Kr4t05> flux___: You rock! :)
[12:18] <wickers>
[12:18] <FLSimpsonKPT> how do you install wine??
[12:18] <flux___> Kr4t05, wait,... -s not -d
[12:18] <wickers> Seveas, what's the hex unicode for that again?
[12:18] <wickers> the smilie
[12:18] <Seveas> no idea
[12:18] <maxkelley> eXIstenZ: you should be able to go to a site with flash, click "click here to install plugins" and go through that
[12:18] <rem__> sudo apt-get install wine
[12:18] <HymnToLife> !tell FLSimpsonKPT about wine
[12:18] <epsilon5> #greece
[12:18] <Seveas> I use xchats auto-replace and have forgotten the code
[12:18] <wickers> lol
[12:18] <kevjava> put this in your sources.list:  ' deb http://wine.sourceforge.net/apt/ binary/'
[12:19] <eXIstenZ> maxkelley, it says that installation failed, I don't know why.

[12:20] <ubotu> Hi, wickers!
[12:20] <wickers> there we go
[12:20] <maxkelley> eXIstenZ: I don't use feeds too much

[12:21] <blanky> guys, anyone know how to install the new gnome
[12:21] <wickers> LordMelkor, do you have realplayer 10 installed?
[12:21] <maxkelley> goodboy: where'd you download it from?
[12:21] <eletido> I like using Thunderbird's news reader. it works well for me.
[12:21] <kevjava> eXIstenZ: try EasyUbuntu:  http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/
[12:21] <goodboy> how*
[12:21] <wickers> actually brb... gotta feed the dog
[12:21] <maxkelley> goodboy: yeah, where did you download it from?
[12:21] <HymnToLife> !tell godboy about wine
[12:21] <LordMelkor> wickers: yes
[12:21] <iReALLyGotNoTime> Does anyone know of an IRC widget here?
[12:22] <HymnToLife> goodboy> see the link ubotu gave you
[12:22] <maxkelley> HymnToLife: heh.. I guess you are religious :)
[12:22] <maxkelley> godboy? :P
[12:22] <maxkelley> harhar.
[12:22] <HymnToLife> not at all
[12:22] <flux___> goodboy, sudo apt-get install wine
[12:22] <maxkelley> HymnToLife: k, then why did you call him godboy? :P
[12:22] <HymnToLife> because of a typo I guess
[12:22] <maxkelley> hehe
[12:23] <maxkelley> i figured you'd catch that and re-send it to him before I had to pester you to death :)
[12:23] <LordMelkor> Phoul: what do i set to have volume gain for my mic in kmix?
[12:23] <maxkelley> oh well, pestering is fun :)
[12:23] <Phoul> LordMelkor, you just add it
[12:23] <LordMelkor> Phoul: i mean which bar do i move :-p
[12:23] <kevjava> goodboy: put this in your /etc/apt/sources.list: 'deb http://wine.sourceforge.net/apt/ binary/'.
[12:23] <iReALLyGotNoTime> #gdesklet
[12:24] <iReALLyGotNoTime> wow
[12:24] <goodboy> when i compile glib he telling me configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH
[12:24] <goodboy> See `config.log' for more details.
[12:24] <Phoul> LordMelkor, none you go to the end and turn on mic gain
[12:24] <LordMelkor> oh
[12:24] <Phoul> Or if you want to move bars just do that
[12:24] <goodboy> what mean that
[12:24] <Phoul> But i dont know which for sure
[12:24] <kevjava> goodboy: Then 'apt-get upgrade && apt-get install wine'
[12:24] <bimberi> goodboy: sudo aptitude install build-essential
[12:24] <Razor-X> goo
[12:24] <goodboy> i read config.log but nothing there
[12:24] <kevjava> Sorry, s/upgrade/update
[12:24] <Razor-X> goodboy: ``sudo aptitude install build-essential''
[12:24] <Razor-X> Heh, bimberi beat me to it.
[12:25] <bimberi> Razor-X: looks like you tripped :)
[12:25] <Razor-X> kevjava: WINE for a C compiler?!
[12:25] <markk> I'm officially going out of my mind
[12:25] <LordMelkor> Phoul: Oh this... its already enabled.. i enabled that with the default volume controller... it helps somewhat but i need even more gain :-/
[12:25] <markk> I need some help here
[12:25] <heyjoe2> can someone help me with getting ubuntu to boot quicker? please?
[12:25] <Phoul> LordMelkor, best bet?
[12:25] <Phoul> Buy a new mic
[12:25] <kevjava> Razor-X: Was referring to an earlier query, apologies.
[12:25] <maxkelley> markk: shoot, me friend!
[12:25] <heyjoe2> simple question?
[12:25] <shiv> I get this error when I start bibus. Database error dbBib.getRoot: ('no such table: bibrefKey',)
[12:25] <Razor-X> kevjava: Ah.
[12:25] <LordMelkor> :(
[12:25] <goodboy> it is programe for paltalk
[12:25] <maxkelley> markk: well, don't shoot me, shoot.. your question.
[12:25] <goodboy> site web
[12:26] <Phoul> >.>
[12:26] <ahave> IRC widget or desklets sounds like a nice idea, if anyone knows about it
[12:26] <_trick> Can anyone recommend a guide for migrating a small bussiness from windows to linux?
[12:26] <markk> Well, I installed Ubuntu on friday, and it all went quite smooth and fast
[12:26] <polpak> heyjoe2, are you on a laptop?
[12:26] <goodboy> but i havnt links now
[12:26] <maxkelley> goodboy: is english your native language?
[12:26] <markk> but we tried to install a second OS on the hard drive (2nd partition) and screwed it up
[12:26] <iReALLyGotNoTime> ahave, that's what I am saying!
[12:26] <markk> and so, we deleted everything, and installed ubuntu again
[12:26] <markk> now, on the first install, I could play America's army
[12:26] <maxkelley> hmm
[12:27] <maxkelley> install the second OS first, then ubuntu
[12:27] <goodboy> Name: glib-2.10.1
[12:27] <maxkelley> try that.
[12:27] <Razor-X> Can someone ping6 irc6.rizon.net to tell me if it's up?
[12:27] <maxkelley> Razor-X: sure.
[12:27] <markk> it played very nice and fast, after I switched to the 3d driver
[12:27] <Xeronic> where to get esddsp?
[12:27] <goodboy> no
[12:27] <LordMelkor> W00T
[12:27] <markk> now, with the second install, it played so slow that it's unplayable
[12:27] <maxkelley> Razor-X: unknown-host
[12:27] <markk> and the compuer seemed slow
[12:27] <_trick> Razor-X, unknown host
[12:27] <goodboy> but i can understand freansh beter than english
[12:27] <LordMelkor> it worked! i had to increase "capture" and here you all had me thinking i had to go buy new stuff
[12:28] <maxkelley> markk: install the second OS first, then ubuntu.
[12:28] <maxkelley> goodboy: freanish?
[12:28] <markk> so, I eventually deleted that install and did a full reinstall all over again...  and it is STILL slow
[12:28] <markk> the only thing on the drive is ubuntu
[12:28] <goodboy> frensh
[12:28] <shiv_> I really need help on this : I get this error when I start bibus. Database error dbBib.getRoot: ('no such table: bibrefKey',) Any help?
[12:28] <goodboy> frencais
[12:28] <maxkelley> goodboy: oh, french. try #ubuntu-fr
[12:28] <maxkelley> i think that's a channel..
[12:28] <goodboy> ok thanks you
[12:28] <markk> yet, even though I've changed video drivers and so on, I cannot get the game to play.  it's still slow
[12:28] <maxkelley> !francais
[12:28] <ubotu> maxkelley: Some people juggle geese. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[12:28] <maxkelley> pah.
[12:28] <bimberi> !fr
[12:28] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[12:28] <maxkelley> !french
[12:28] <ubotu> No idea, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, maxkelley
[12:29] <markk> something worked the first time that no longer works
[12:29] <maxkelley> yeah, goodboy, #ubuntu-fr
[12:29] <markk> and yet, it's just a default install
[12:29] <markk> with the only change being video drivers
[12:29] <markk> from default
[12:29] <maxkelley> markk: are you sure you're wiping everything on each install?
[12:29] <eXIstenZ> maxkelley, adding the java modules for firefox 1.5 is the same as 1.0.7?
[12:29] <markk> yes
[12:29] <Razor-X> _trick: Ah.
[12:29] <maxkelley> eXIstenZ: erm, not sure.. believe so.
[12:29] <markk> the drive partition is clean
[12:29] <markk> when I start
[12:30] <Razor-X> Can you also ping6 irc.ipv6.freenode.net, people who ping6'd irc6.rizon.net?
[12:30] <markk> I don't see any s trange deficiencies
[12:30] <markk> like drives not running in dma mode
[12:30] <maxkelley> Razor-X: erm, network unreachable.
[12:30] <maxkelley> Razor-X: wait, do you need an ipv6 conn?
[12:30] <markk> yet, framerate in AA went from 33 to 8
[12:31] <markk> for all the same settings
[12:31] <maxkelley> pah, of course you do hahaha
[12:31] <Razor-X> maxkelley: Yesh :D.
[12:31] <biloyp> anyone ever use lkl (linux keylogger)
[12:31] <Razor-X> maxkelley: Yeah, I'm connected via irc.ipv6.freenode.net.
[12:31] <Razor-X> Just wondering if I need more DNS servers.
[12:32] <maxkelley> Razor-X: well, in that case, that won't work, now will it? :)
[12:32] <Razor-X> Hehe.
[12:32] <sobersabre> hi.
[12:32] <maxkelley> !flan
[12:32] <ubotu> maxkelley: Syntax error in line 1. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[12:32] <maxkelley> hah
[12:33] <sobersabre> I have an annoying thing in my gnome desktop. once per random time, esd is spawned, and it takes over my sound card. so I cannot talk via skype. ( I can talk, but cannot hear anything )
[12:33] <maxkelley> flan makes ubotu have a syntax error.. foreign puddings must turn him on...
[12:33] <maxkelley> sobersabre: killall esd
[12:33] <sobersabre> maxkelley no sh1te!
[12:33] <maxkelley> chances are, a program your are using is using esd :)
[12:33] <maxkelley> sobersabre: well then, why did you need me? :)
[12:33] <sobersabre> wow.
[12:33] <ompaul> language please
[12:33] <elkbuntu> attitude check time
[12:34] <Phoul> How do you uninstall things with ubuntu?
[12:34] <Phoul> I tried apt-get uninstall kubuntu-desktop
[12:34] <Razor-X> Sorry, I found an independant IPV6 site that looked it up for me. Seems it's not there.
[12:34] <Phoul> But it didnt work
[12:34] <maxkelley> Phoul: like, is there a certain pkg you wish to uninstall?
[12:34] <Phoul> the whole thing i just installed
[12:34] <maxkelley> Phoul: apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop
[12:34] <Phoul> I very much disliked it lol
[12:34] <Razor-X> sobersabre: Most programs, including Window Managers, can use ALSA directly.
[12:34] <navarone> Phoul don't forget "sudo" in front
[12:34] <Razor-X> I, for one, find sound servers incredibly annoying.
[12:35] <maxkelley> real man use su!
[12:35] <sobersabre> Razor-X but the thing is that skype is retarded, and it uses OSS.
[12:35] <Phoul> Umm...
[12:35] <Razor-X> maxkelley: Go back to LFS, real man ;).
[12:35] <farous> Phoul: how did you install kubuntu
[12:35] <maxkelley> Razor-X: that's something linux, as a whole, has to improve on :)
[12:35] <maxkelley> Razor-X: eh? :)
[12:35] <Razor-X> sobersabre: Well, Ubuntu has an OSS->ALSA wrapper by default.
[12:35] <Phoul> farous, apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[12:35] <farous> for apt-get will not remove everything
[12:35] <Phoul> How do i uninstall it then
[12:35] <Razor-X> maxkelley: Linux From Scratch ;).
[12:35] <farous> Phoul: than you will need to remove all packages one at a time or look for something common to them all
[12:35] <Razor-X> sobersabre: Some of my applications refuse to play to ALSA, and play to OSS instead.
[12:36] <maxkelley> Razor-X: heh
[12:36] <Razor-X> Which is... weird, but oh well, it all works without a sound server.
[12:36] <sobersabre> Razor-X which e.g. ?
[12:36] <farous> Phoul: most probably libqt3. That if you do not want any qt appl
[12:36] <Razor-X> sobersabre: I think ogg123 is one of those that play to OSS.
[12:36] <Razor-X> But, it's wrapped to ALSA just fine.
[12:36] <spec> the new kernel breaks my ndiswrapper's BCM4306 driver *whine*
[12:37] <spec> (in dapper)
[12:37] <farous> spec same prob here too
[12:37] <Razor-X> spec: The new kernel may, by default, include some Broadcom support.
[12:37] <spec> i know the fix
[12:37] <spec> it's simple
[12:37] <IdleOne> spec check in #ubuntu+1
[12:37] <Razor-X> I, for one, disabled Broadcom support in my 2.6.15 kernel.
[12:37] <spec> i'm just bitching :p
[12:37] <biloyp> anyone know what the abbreviation for the keymap is used in USA? Ex. Italina would be "it".
[12:37] <biloyp> Italian
[12:37] <farous> lol
[12:37] <Razor-X> biloyp: ``us''
[12:37] <spec> i regressed to the older kernel (or just unload the bcm module and reload the ndiswrapper module)
[12:37] <farous> do not bitck on unstable release
[12:37] <biloyp> Razor, thx I tried that
[12:38] <Razor-X> biloyp: England is ``en''.
[12:38] <biloyp> got it Raxor-X
[12:38] <ufo> spec, or add the bcm43xx to blacklist
[12:38] <spec> err, where's this blacklist of yours?
[12:38] <spec> i thought there should be one, but i didn't know for sure, so i didnt' look :p
[12:38] <Razor-X> Ah, dapper loads broadcom as a module, huh?
[12:38] <ufo> spec, /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[12:39] <sobersabre> Razor-X have you played with your .asoundrc ?
[12:39] <Razor-X> *Dapper
[12:39] <Razor-X> sobersabre: A bit, but only to get DMIX working.
[12:39] <maxkelley> off to das.. place.
[12:39] <spec> ufo: thanks
[12:39] <sobersabre> hm... what is DMIX... is ac'97 capable of it ?
[12:39] <spec> now i can upgrade to the new kernel and not fail miserably
[12:40] <Razor-X> sobersabre: DMIX allows you to play simeltaneous sounds.
[12:40] <spec> compiz also has a new error, but I think i'll be lazy and wait for an update
[12:40] <sobersabre> and is AC'97 codec enabled sound capable of it ?
[12:40] <Razor-X> sobersabre: It's a purely software solution.
[12:40] <mandavi> hi, with what application can i have a detailed view on a wlan signal stengh?
[12:40] <biloyp> anyone know command to make a file
[12:40] <Razor-X> Since if your card could do it via hardware, you wouldn't *need* DMIX.
[12:40] <spec> ufo: do i have to do anything else, or just add the blacklist statement?
[12:40] <spec> biloyp: touch
[12:41] <aroticoz> how can I mount virtual cd's like deamon tools in win ?
[12:41] <biloyp> thx
[12:41] <spec> aroticoz: mount -o loop /path/to/cdrom.iso /mnt/cdrom
[12:41] <aroticoz> thanks spec
[12:42] <spec> h'okay, time to reboot and see if new kernel works well
[12:43] <sobersabre> Razor-X I don't understand the www links refer to a file ~/.asoundrc... sine when shall I be able to create entry in /dev via editing ~/.asoundrc ?!?!?
[12:43] <sobersabre> s/sine/since/
[12:43] <Razor-X> sobersabre: Huh? ALSA exists already.
[12:43] <s-wx> hp: unable to open /var/run/hplip/hpiod.port: No such file or directory: prnt/hpijs/hplip_api.c 75.. no one knows about this problem? My printer was working very well  day before...
[12:43] <bowie> hello
[12:44] <bowie> i need help on nvidia dirver instalation
[12:44] <Razor-X> sobersabre: Your sound server uses ALSA.
[12:44] <IdleOne> why does installing xchat-gnome remove xchat and ubuntu-desktop and xubuntu-desktop?
[12:44] <funkyHat> sobersabre, it's only a meta-entry. programs running with different UIDS can't see it
[12:44] <ahave> anyone having problems with vmware products and X crashing?
[12:45] <ahave> could be a problem with the XFree86??
[12:45] <funkyHat> ahave, no, not had any problems with VMware server
[12:45] <bowie> is there a room for nvidia problems??
[12:45] <funkyHat> ahave, well considering you shouldn't be using XFree86...
[12:45] <Razor-X> bowie: Google should help.
[12:45] <ttread> !nvidia
[12:45] <ubotu> [nvidia]  at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia or http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=57368
[12:45] <Razor-X> bowie: Helped me. Until a new conflict closed my nVidia driver support.
[12:45] <Razor-X> Of course, I compiled a new kernel for it, and everything but, that's besides the point....
[12:46] <bowie> ok thanks
[12:46] <ahave> Welle as such I'm not, but as i understand Gnome in 5.10 is more or less based on XFree86
[12:46] <IdleOne> Razor-X>  telling ppl to Google is not an acceptable answer
[12:46] <Razor-X> IdleOne: It is, actually.
[12:46] <Razor-X> IdleOne: When something exists on Google, it's more effective to refer to it than to cite it.
[12:46] <Razor-X> Since you can see the original document, and it's scope.
[12:47] <Razor-X> Because all the information on drivers and driver patches, and what-not I remember not, and took me ages to compile together.
[12:48] <SoulPropagatio1> how do i configure the bootsplashesque thingy?
[12:48] <SoulPropagation> oops, there we go
[12:49] <Razor-X> SoulPropagation: Well... unless Ubuntu kernels support 'em by default, you're going to have to recompile your kernel.
[12:49] <bimberi> !usplash
[12:49] <ubotu> rumour has it, usplash is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/USplashCustomizationHowto
[12:49] <SoulPropagation> thanks
[12:49] <mandavi> anyone knows a tool to view the wlan signal strenght in a continous mesurement?
[12:49] <bimberi> SoulPropagation: yw :)
[12:50] <biloyp> anyone ever use lkl (linux key logger) app?
[12:50] <IdleOne>     *
[12:50] <IdleOne>       Any help is appreciated of course, but you should help people solve their problems. If you get stuck, say so instead of guessing; someone else will step up and continue. There is heaps of information available on the wiki, [WWW]  in the infobot and at other places. Try to familiarize yourself with that informations. Telling people to RTFM or to "just google it" is not very polite, find them a url or at least give them some dire
[12:50] <IdleOne> ctions to documentation they can use. Do not recommend outdated and bad information such as ubuntuguide.org or bad solutions such as using install-css.sh from libdvdread, running java-installer.bin files directly or using automatix. For all these things there are much safer alternatives available.
[12:50] <IdleOne>  taken from wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcRules
[12:50] <dooglus> what is the difference between ubuntu and debian?
[12:50] <ahave> I'll rephrase my question. Has anyone a working installation of a vmware product? And if yes, could my problem be related to a 2.6.15 kernel?
[12:50] <pppoe_dude> hi. how do i activate mouse (cursor actions) in VIM?
[12:51] <noirequus> IdleOne: why not just send folks that link?
[12:51] <bimberi> !debian
[12:51] <ubotu> Debian is "the rock upon which Ubuntu is founded"; see http://www.debian.org Thank You Ian and DEBra Murdock! 1994 Vers. 0.9.  Debian and Ubuntu http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/relationship/
[12:51] <kevjava> pppoe_dude: try using gvim
[12:51] <bimberi> dooglus: ^^^^ (the last link)
[12:51] <pppoe_dude> kevjava, ok thanks
[12:51] <s-wx> hp: unable to open /var/run/hplip/hpiod.port: No such file or directory: prnt/hpijs/hplip_api.c 75.. no one knows about this problem? My printer was working very well the  day before.. I touch nothing...
[12:51] <IdleOne> noirequus> ?
[12:51] <ompaul> IdleOne, the paste :-)
[12:51] <noirequus> IdleOne: um, instead of pasting the big post, why not send folks the link instead?
[12:52] <kevjava> pppoe_dude: apt-get install vim-gtk
[12:52] <dooglus> bimberi: thanks.
[12:52] <LjL> apt-get install emacs-qt
[12:52] <Razor-X> IdleOne: Let me rephrase, IdleOne.
[12:52] <bimberi> dooglus: yw :)
[12:52] <Razor-X> Google for ``nVidia drivers''.
[12:52] <Razor-X> Since, someone had to tell *me* what to type in google the first time.
[12:52] <Razor-X> How did I expect someone else would know what to do automatically?!
[12:53] <IdleOne> noirequus>  didnt think of it figured I would just paste him the relevant part of the link ;/
[12:53] <Razor-X> :P.
[12:53] <ompaul> Razor-X, that ain't helpful, there is a wiki with that attached, you could do that
[12:53] <amgad> guys, how can i get the monitor to turn off after idle time,
[12:53] <Razor-X> ompaul: Someone else already referred him the Wiki Link.
[12:53] <amgad> i tried the screen saver power managment settings, it didn't work
[12:53] <bimberi> IdleOne: xchat and xchat-gnome conflict, so installing one removes the other and any of its dependencies.  In xchat's case those dependencies are ubuntu-desktop and xubuntu-desktop
[12:53] <Razor-X> I was adding supplemental letters.
[12:53] <noirequus> amgad: system > prefs > screesaver > advanced tab
[12:53] <IdleOne> ompaul>  and noirequus  how did you know I pasted the entire paragraphe anyway?
[12:53] <Razor-X> *supplemental information.
[12:54] <noirequus> IdleOne: i wrote a lot of it
[12:54] <ompaul> IdleOne, its in the channel :)
[12:54] <IdleOne> hmmmmmm
[12:54] <IdleOne> it should be
[12:54] <dooglus> bimberi: xchat-gnome is a dependant of ubuntu-desktop, not the other way around.
[12:54] <dooglus> *dependancy*
[12:54] <bimberi> dooglus: breezy not dapper
[12:55] <IdleOne> I meant shouldnt
[12:55] <dooglus> bimberi: ok, xchat then.
[12:55] <amgad> noirequus, i tried it, it didn't work, any known bugs?
[12:55] <IdleOne> in any case sorry about the paste folks didnt mean it
[12:55] <ahave> What is the purpose of ubuntu-desktop anyway?
[12:55] <noirequus> amgad: none known. did you give it time?
[12:55] <ahave> I've seen no effect when removing it, and reinstalling it
[12:55] <Spec> yay :p
[12:56] <dooglus> ahave: it is a package which depends on a whole bunch of desktop apps.  installing ubuntu-desktop will make sure that all the default desktop apps are installed.
[12:56] <bimberi> !ubuntu-desktop
[12:56] <ubotu> ubuntu-desktop is probably a metapackage. It depends upon other packages and brings them in; you can safely remove it, but it is recommended that you re-install it when ugprading.
[12:56] <SoapBathX606X> Hey.
[12:56] <ahave> ahh, thanks
[12:56] <amgad> noirequus, yeah, it set it to hour, found it on when i woke up, now set it 1 minute, and watched, it didnt work
[12:56] <SoapBathX606X> Whats the min specs for running Ubuntu Live CD.
[12:56] <Phoul> is there a media player that will play .asx?
[12:56] <LjL> SoapBathX606X: i don't know about the official specs, but i'd say some 200mhz and 128 megs of ram is the very very minimum
[12:57] <amgad> noirequus, does it related to running video on the disktop, i am running tvtime..
[12:57] <ahave> !ubuntu-desktop
[12:57] <ubotu> well, ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage. It depends upon other packages and brings them in; you can safely remove it, but it is recommended that you re-install it when ugprading.
[12:57] <noirequus> amgad: i have no idea.
[12:57] <dooglus> ahave: for instance, if and when you upgrade to dapper, the only reason the upgrade process will know to install xchat-gnome is because the new ubuntu-desktop package depends on it.  if you don't have ubuntu-desktop installed, you won't get any of the new dapper packages.
[12:57] <amgad> noirequus, ok thanks..
[12:57] <Spec> running 'alsamixer' gives me an error, running alsamixer -c 0 or -c 1 works just fine...
[12:57] <vlauzums> Greetings: I have a question - is there a Ubuntu schedule application that has a calendar? Something like the Calendar / Tasks feature in Evolution mail?
[12:57] <Phoul> anyone know about ask?
[12:57] <Spec> the error is: Unable to find definition 'defaults.ctl.card',
[12:58] <Phoul> asx*
[12:58] <hatake_kakashi> SoapBathX606X: adding to what LjL said, theres hardly a likely chance it will run GUI fine
[12:58] <ahave> dooglus: very informative
[12:58] <Phoul> .asx media..
[12:58] <hatake_kakashi> with that sort of spec that is
[12:58] <amgad> guys, anybody have suggestions, howto get the monitor to turn off after idle, the prefs>screensaver->advanced thingy??
[12:58] <dooglus> ahave: in a terminal, type "apt-cache show ubuntu-desktop".  it will show you which packages ubuntu-desktop keeps installed for you.
[12:58] <aroticoz> how can I mount a bin(cue) virtual CD ?
[12:59] <SoapBathX606X> Okey thanks guys. And now my next question. I have two laptops neither run the interface. (Related to my graphics card I guess)
[12:59] <basbryan> aroticoz: mount it loopback?
[12:59] <aroticoz> i'm realy new :| what do you mean ?
[12:59] <bimberi> vlauzums: do you mean something like MS Project?  If so, have a look at 'planner'
[12:59] <basbryan> aroticoz: i mount iso's in loopback all the time
[12:59] <aroticoz> how ?
[01:00] <vlauzums> bimberi: something more personal, where I can put in tasks for myself and mark appointments on a calendar
[01:00] <aroticoz> what is loopback
[01:00] <noirequus> aroticoz: use binchunker to convert it to .iso then do as basbryan suggests
[01:00] <kevjava> vlauzums: I use KOrganizer.  Evolution is very good for that too.
[01:00] <SoapBathX606X> I have a S3\UChromeP.
[01:00] <hatake_kakashi> basbryan: iirc you cannot mount bin/cue files with -o loop, only iso9660 files
[01:00] <polpak> vlauzums, evolution?
[01:00] <bimberi> vlauzums: ah, kk, evolution or mozilla-calendar perhaps
[01:00] <vlauzums> i was using evolution until i started having problems with it
[01:00] <polpak> vlauzums, depends on if you're using gnome or kde what you'll have installed
[01:00] <vlauzums> ah nice, mozilla-calendar
[01:00] <vlauzums> i'm using gnome ubuntu
[01:00] <LjL> vlauzums: what about evolution itself? i use KDE, not gnome, which does have an application like the one you seem to want, inside Kontact... but i guess Evolution is mostly similar?
[01:00] <rancorus> Hi, Is there any way to remove the touchpad functions of left-clicking
[01:01] <basbryan> aroticoz: http://thomer.com/howtos/mount_loopback.html
[01:01] <aroticoz> thanks
[01:01] <vlauzums> i'll see how mozilla calendar works, thank you everyone
[01:01] <Spec> aroticoz: little different
[01:01] <Spec> aroticoz: .bin/.cue files aren't .iso files
[01:01] <curley_sue> vlauzums have u tried the calendar of mozilla (could b embbeded in either firefox or thunderbird,while in TB it can even mail u notifications...)
[01:01] <vlauzums> oh excellent!
[01:01] <ahave> dooglus: apt-cache answered my question. very relavant
[01:02] <basbryan> spec: how to convert bin/cue to iso?
[01:02] <Spec> cuetools
[01:02] <LKRaider> bin2iso
[01:02] <hatake_kakashi> basbryan: noirequus has just mentioned before
[01:02] <dooglus> basbryan: I don't know.  but mplayer can play .bin files directly if that helps.
[01:02] <Spec> or maybe cue2toc
[01:02] <hatake_kakashi> 10:00:17 < noirequus> aroticoz: use binchunker to convert it to .iso then do as basbryan suggests
[01:02] <basbryan> hatake:sorry
[01:02] <curley_sue> vlauzums: only pay attention that unlike evolution it is not automatically running in gnome so u have to add it to your startup progs
[01:02] <LKRaider> or use windows :P
[01:02] <dooglus> basbryan: "bchunk" might be what you need
[01:03] <eXIstenZ> How can I install the java web start for firefox?
[01:03] <Spec> there are many different ways
[01:03] <Spec> there's multiple SF.net projects to do this
[01:04] <basbryan> i was asking for articoz...  ty all for answers
[01:04] <aroticoz> thanks

[01:12] <kimchi_sg> hi all
[01:12] <redguy> bowie__: how did you try to install the driver?
[01:13] <bowie__> downloading from nvidia site
[01:13] <redguy> bowie__: did you follow the guide ubotu gave few lines above?
[01:13] <redguy> bowie__: why?
[01:13] <bowie__> then sudo sh nvidia driver...
[01:13] <ahave> bowie: what kernel do you use?
[01:13] <redguy> !nvidia
[01:13] <ubotu> nvidia is, like, totally, at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia or http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=57368
[01:13] <ahave> uname -r
[01:13] <bowie__> yes i follow it, the guide
[01:14] <bowie__> 2.6.12-9-686
[01:14] <ahave> did you CC=gcc-3.4, export CC?
[01:14] <aroticoz> sry to bother again but how do I use binchunker :S
[01:14] <bowie__> i have gcc 4.0
[01:14] <ahave> yep, but your kernel isn't build with that
[01:15] <bowie__> redguy why what?
[01:15] <ahave> so do CC=gcc-3.4
[01:15] <redguy> bowie__: why do you want to make it, when there's a package ready for you in the repositories??
[01:15] <ahave> and export CC
[01:15] <kimchi_sg> i've a question... is it safe for me to copy .deb files from /var/cache/apt/archives from one computer, for installation and upgrading on another? both are running breezy.
[01:15] <ahave> and then do your install
[01:15] <redguy> bowie__: why did you download from the nvidia site?
[01:15] <redguy> kimchi_sg: sure
[01:15] <linkd> kimchi_sg: i would think so
[01:15] <bowie__> ahave ok i will
[01:15] <polpak> kimchi_sg, yeah, that's fine so long as they are the same arch
[01:16] <kimchi_sg> yes, both are i386.
[01:16] <aroticoz> can anyone tell me how to use bitchunker :|
[01:16] <bowie__> redguy because i install from scratch yesterday my linux distro
[01:16] <blanky> how do I exit man pages?
[01:16] <kimchi_sg> blanky: "q"
[01:17] <_tcc> I need to mount my USB device.
[01:17] <_tcc> How can I do that?
[01:17] <basbryan> aroticoz: a google of bitchunker gave me one page
[01:17] <blanky> haha thanks kimchi_sg
[01:17] <kimchi_sg> and i can just run "dpkg -i *.deb" on the computer to install from the .debs, correct?
[01:17] <basbryan> aroticoz:try another alt?
[01:19] <ahave> Noone on the vmware thing? I've tried: free GSX, player, licensed ESX, workstation. All takes over X, no mouse distorted graphics.
[01:19] <basbryan> aroticoz:(which is why i asked earlier) i cannot even recall last time i faced same prob, but i am pretty sure u can do cue/bin to iso, u just need to find a good up to date proggy for it
[01:19] <plt> hi anybody speaking german in here ?

[01:27] <JustinLynn> rodrigo_> what printer model is it?
[01:27] <plt> rodrigo_: is your lexmarkprinter supported by ubuntu or do you need special software like turboprint ?
[01:27] <brenner> mpmc: i've already told you. ctrl+L
[01:27] <ompaul> rodrigo_, which actual model
[01:27] <rodrigo_> z812..
[01:27] <rodrigo_> i think isn't supported
[01:28] <plt> do you know about turboprint ?
[01:28] <mpmc> brenner: thx you, I didn't see your message, too much going on in here :P
[01:28] <rodrigo_> Lexmark z812...   z800 Series.
[01:28] <brenner> mpmc: no worries.  but it should have highlighted for you :-/

[01:29] <mpmc> !easyreporites
[01:29] <ubotu> mpmc: I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[01:29] <ladofnod> no. i am aware that my board has a limit on in
[01:29] <plt> turboprint is commercial software to get unsurpportet printers working under linuxboy
[01:29] <ahave> dollar: as far as I've read, you shouldn't try to install KDE in Ubuntu with gnome. Haven't tried it myself, since I've read a good few post saying its mess everything up
[01:29] <eXIstenZ> basbryan, doesn't work. It says the folders don't exist tho I see them on the desktop
[01:29] <plt> just ask google for turboprint + lexmark
[01:30] <plt> ladofnod what about biosupdate ?

[01:30] <Phoul> I really wanna get it working
[01:30] <ahave> Still noone with a working vmware install?
[01:30] <brenner> lafferpt: if someone knows, they'll answer.  stop reapeating yourself.  meanwhile, try the forum
[01:31] <mpmc> Now, anyone remember how I get the easy repo site that generates the respos?
[01:31] <drakonan2> oh really? i was about to attempt to get it running ahave
[01:31] <Synergy> umm
[01:31] <cinder> Hi all!!
[01:31] <brenner> ubotu: tell mpmc about easysource
[01:31] <Synergy> i get a udi error or somesuch when trying to use my floopy
[01:31] <Phoul> I will take that as a no?
[01:31] <Synergy> is there a update i need
[01:31] <cinder> Anyone knows how to use "eutils"?
[01:31] <cinder> so I can configure engage
[01:31] <mpmc> brenner: Thx you again, lol....
[01:32] <brenner> Phoul: you installed w32codecs and totem-xine?
[01:32] <Phoul> oop i got it working
[01:32] <ahave> drakonan2, I've had no luck really so far. But I have a patched 2.6.15 kernel, since I have an ASUS MB that demands that
[01:32] <ladofnod> im fairly certain there's nothing i can do, but just researching options if there are any
[01:32] <JustinLynn> rodrigo_> how old is it?
[01:32] <brenner> Synergy: what's the error?
[01:32] <drakonan2> looks like it's not an issue on hoary
[01:32] <navarone> ladofnod a bios update is not available?
[01:32] <rodrigo_> who..? me?
[01:33] <Cinder> Anyone knows how to use "eutils"?
[01:33] <ahave> drakonan:I guess Qemu is ok, not only as fast
[01:33] <JustinLynn> rodrigo_> no :) your printer.
[01:33] <rodrigo_> ... jejje..
[01:33] <ahave> drakonan2: It shouldn't be on 5.10 either
[01:33] <rodrigo_> maybe 1 or 2 years--
[01:33] <plt> where to get more themes for gnome (not gedesklets) ?
[01:34] <basbryan> plt:gnome-look?
[01:34] <brenner> ubotu: tell plt about themes
[01:34] <ladofnod> there is one, but the image writer prog doesnt run in linux, and im not quite familiar with wine yet
[01:34] <ahave> plt: gnomelooks
[01:34] <Synergy> brenner given UDI is a not a mountable volume
[01:34] <drakonan2> why are you wanting to use it out of curiosity ahave?
[01:34] <Cinder> !ubotu eutils
[01:34] <ubotu> Huh? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Cinder
[01:34] <brenner> Synergy: are you mounting thru terminal?
[01:34] <plt> yeah like crux and glider etc what is brought with ubuntulog

[01:35] <drakonan2> i'm trying to decide whether or not to put linux on this slow 350mhz or windows server 2003, it'll just be a file server
[01:35] <eth0> is that supposed to happen or something?
[01:35] <Synergy> brenner you mind if i msg you
[01:35] <ahave> drakonan2: yep, and I'm doing an MCSA aswell, so it would be nice not to have to boot into windows
[01:35] <ompaul> Cinder, the ! is the bots name in shorthand :-)
[01:35] <brenner> Synergy: best to keep it in channel.  that way others can chip in
[01:35] <Cinder> ompaul, okok
[01:35] <mpmc> Can someone please remind me where the sources are?
[01:35] <nathaniel> Does anyone know how I can check what version of XFREE86 I have?

[01:36] <Synergy> im new to linux
[01:36] <Synergy> i have not mounted in terminal
[01:36] <Synergy> do i need to do that first
[01:36] <Cinder> No one uses engage??
[01:36] <ompaul> !patience
[01:36] <brenner> Synergy: no. it's just an alternative method.  you should be aple to mount it through nautilus
[01:36] <ubotu> The people in this channel are volunteers. Please be aware there are a lot of questions, but only maybe few who might know the answer for you. Please be patient. Your attitude may determine their willingness to help you.
[01:36] <brenner> s/aple/able
[01:37] <drakonan2> what tests do you have so far?  I'm going to take 70-290 this Friday
[01:37] <brenner> Synergy: is it possible it's just the disk?
[01:37] <dollar> is there like a taskmanager or something ?? like ctrl+alt+del on winblows?
[01:37] <rodrigo_> i have this file... (z810llpddk-2.0-3.i386.rpm)
[01:37] <basbryan> synergy: addinfg a repos doesn't need a mount
[01:37] <ompaul> !offtopic
[01:37] <ubotu> I guess offtopic is Non-support discussions may be carried out in #ubuntu-offtopic. Editor/Language wars are welcome there!
[01:37] <brenner> dollar: apps >sys tools > sys monitor

[01:37] <ompaul> drakonan2, ^^ ubotu :-)
[01:37] <rodrigo_> maybe i didn't install right in my ubuntu 5.10

[01:37] <eth0> hi, im in repositories and when i click add, the click all the four boxes, click ok, and then click add again, only 2 of the 4 boxes are checked - anyone know why? is that supposed to happen or something?
[01:38] <Amaranth> easyubuntu will setup ctrl-alt-del so it launches gnome-system-monitor, iirc
[01:38] <brenner> Synergy: let's try and mount it manually thru terminal: apps > access. > terminal
[01:38] <basbryan> my bad then...  i thought he was looking for a source for a kernel .deb

[01:46] <eth0> sorry not security, i have all 4 of those, i only have 3 of the 4 for "breey badger"
[01:46] <eth0> mandavi_: ok, will do
[01:46] <IdleOne> LjL>  I dont know the syntax can you be more specific please :)
[01:46] <basketcase3> Could anyone out there help me get my winmodem working in Linux? I am thouroughly confused as to which driver to get.
[01:47] <brenner> IdleOne: mv ~/Desktop/blah.py ~/.xchat2
[01:47] <brenner> IdleOne: i thought you were a guru
[01:47] <IdleOne> thank you  brenner  anf LjL
[01:47] <Synergy> brenner /media/floppy0 auto rw,user,no auto
[01:47] <LjL> !tell idleone about cli
[01:47] <IdleOne> brenner>  way far from guru
[01:47] <LjL> IdleOne: where "~" is shorthand for your home directory
[01:47] <eth0> mandavi_: did that b4, all of them are uncommented
[01:47] <IdleOne> ljl thanks :P
[01:47] <brenner> Synergy: ok.  change it so it looks like: /dev/fd0        /media/floppy0  auto rw,users,noauto,fmask=111,dmask=000  0   0
[01:47] <mandavi_> eth0: hmm
[01:48] <Kr4t05> How would I set an NFS dir to automatically mount on boot-up?
[01:48] <LjL> Kr4t05: put it in /etc/fstab i suppose
[01:48] <mandavi_> basketcase3: did you read http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/ ?
[01:48] <Kr4t05> LjL: I tried

[01:48] <eth0> i have 3 x breezy badger, and 2 x updates in my repos list
[01:48] <sinaduel> hello, I just installed Cadega, but when it gets to the the hardware information, my GeForce FX5200 card doesn't show up
[01:48] <blanky> hey guys, I have an extra button on my mouse, how can I 'bind' or configure it so that in firefox it acts as the BACK button?
[01:48] <LjL> Kr4t05: perhaps the network is not up yet when the system tries to mount it (shouldn't happen, but does)
[01:49] <blanky> it automatically does that in Windows
[01:49] <ompaul> basketcase3, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DialupModemHowto
[01:49] <eth0> when i clicked all four to be in there
[01:49] <eth0> for each
[01:49] <mandavi_> eth0: when you do a apt-get update - does it renew all the sources?
[01:49] <LjL> Kr4t05: you could put a "mount" command into your /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh, that's started later hopefully
[01:49] <mpmc> Kr4t05: /dev/hda1       /media/ntfs  ntfs    nls=utf8,auto,user,umask=0222 0       0
[01:49] <mandavi_> eth0:  or only three out of four?
[01:49] <ompaul> Lock-Dog, ask in public and have 567 people help
[01:49] <LjL> nfs or ntfs?
[01:49] <brenner> ubotu: tell blanky about mouse
[01:49] <zezu> i'm using "readelf -l /tools/bin/* | grep interpreter" to display the linkage in all of the files in /tools/bin, but i'd like to get the filenames of them as they are being listed, any way to do this or is there a better way via sh script to go through each so i can parse it further ?
[01:49] <Lock-Dog> ompaul,i`m shy ;)
[01:49] <eth0> mandavi_: yea, 3 of the 4 breezy badgers
[01:49] <Kr4t05> [mntent] : warning: no final newline at the end of /etc/fstab
[01:49] <Kr4t05> Is that bad?
[01:49] <ompaul> Lock-Dog, so if you don't ask you don't get answers
[01:50] <basbryan> add a new line?
[01:50] <basbryan> lol
[01:50] <LjL> Kr4t05: don't think it's really bad, but just add it
[01:50] <bimberi> blanky: something here might help - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ManyButtonsMouseHowto
[01:50] <basketcase3> I've checked both those sites. I ran scanModem, and I have a PCTel modem, and if I remember correctly, it was a 7891.
[01:50] <mandavi_> eth0: did you really try to type 'sudo apt-get update' ?
[01:50] <Kr4t05> LjL: I did.
[01:50] <basketcase3> Now I'm confused on which driver to download, and how to install it.
[01:50] <eth0> mandavi_: no ill do it now
[01:50] <Cinder> no one knows anything about e17?
[01:50] <Lock-Dog> xmm...well i downloaded OpenVPN.tar.gz -i`ll copy it to floppy disk,start linux copy the file there,then what?!
[01:50] <engla> Hey! Any ppc users out there? I need someone to test drive my cairo-clock build, I built it for Breezy/PPC [It's an amazingly pretty clock]  http://macslow.thepimp.net/?page_id=23
[01:50] <ompaul> Lock-Dog, well don't start there
[01:50] <Lock-Dog> o?
[01:50] <engla> it's not available on the webpage, rather, I have to try the .debs first
[01:51] <ompaul> Lock-Dog, :-) just a second
[01:51] <Lock-Dog> k ;)
[01:51] <mandavi_> basketcase3: download the scanmodem thing from http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/scanModem.gz and run it
[01:51] <LjL> Kr4t05: is this *nfs* or *ntfs*?
[01:51] <mpmc> Updating takes forever.. servers slow..
[01:51] <mandavi_> basketcase3: i mean upack it first...
[01:51] <Kr4t05> LjL: NFS
[01:51] <ompaul> Lock-Dog, okay it is in what is called universe
[01:51] <ompaul> !tell Lock-Dog about universe
[01:51] <Synergy> brenner ok
[01:51] <Synergy> did that
[01:51] <LjL> Kr4t05: ok. asked since another guy suggested a fstab line for ntfs...
[01:51] <basketcase3> I've already run it. It's a PCTel 7891.
[01:52] <Synergy> was i supposed to save it
[01:52] <eth0> mandavi_: ok, i did it, i still have the same number of repos - 11
[01:52] <ompaul> Lock-Dog, read the message from the bot do the job and tell me when it is done then we continue
[01:52] <Kr4t05> ok, I suppose it works.
[01:52] <LjL> Kr4t05: so after you've put the line into your fstab, can you mount it by typing "sudo mount /mnt/blah"?
[01:52] <Lock-Dog> ompaul,10x,i`ll check it right away.
[01:52] <Kr4t05> LjL: Nope.
[01:52] <dollar> How can I close X and go back to the terminal ?
[01:52] <Kr4t05> mount: <IP_ADDRESS>:/media/share already mounted or /home/kratos/Stuff busy
[01:52] <ompaul> !tell Lock-Dog about register
[01:52] <mandavi_> eth0: i send you a private message...
[01:53] <ompaul> Lock-Dog, had the bot send you another useful one
[01:53] <LjL> Kr4t05: is it already mounted?
[01:53] <mandavi_> eth0: did you get it?
[01:53] <Kr4t05> LjL: Yeah
[01:53] <Lock-Dog> ompaul k ;)
[01:53] <Kr4t05> LjL: It worked.
[01:53] <eth0> mandavi_: no, u have to be registered to send privmsg
[01:53] <Kr4t05> LjL: Thanks.
[01:53] <LjL> Kr4t05: good
[01:53] <basbryan> dollar: ctrl-alt-f1?
[01:53] <brenner> Synergy: yep.  now let's try and mount your disk.  first, try accessing it through Places again.  if that doesn't work, in the terminal type: sudo mount /dev/fd0/ /media/flopp0 -t vfat
[01:53] <shan> hi all, how can I display video data in the memory to the monitor directly, if I have a video device called /dev/video0, how can I deliver the data to my video card??
[01:53] <bimberi> "10x", sheesh
[01:53] <dollar> basbryan, ths doesnt close X ?
[01:53] <basbryan> dollar:this doesn't kill x though
[01:53] <mpmc> Night Guys, I'm going to bed, lol... after this update has finished..
[01:53] <mandavi_> eth0: how do i change my name?
[01:53] <brenner> Synergy: let me know how both of those go
[01:53] <dollar> I need to kill X
[01:53] <eth0> mandavi_: /nick ?
[01:53] <bimberi> mandavi_: /nick newname
[01:54] <basbryan> dollar: kill X and X11 and like
[01:54] <LjL> shan: google for "framebuffer howto". anyway, the quick answer is that /dev/video0 is "just a file" (not really, but the system treats it like one), so you can use any command that deals with files
[01:54] <basbryan> dollar: ctrl bkspc kills X and restarts it
[01:54] <eth0> mandavi: im not registered anyways
[01:54] <mandavi> eth0: ok
[01:54] <LjL> shan: oh no hold on a second, you said video0, not fb0...
[01:54] <eth0> mandavi: do u have 11 repos, or more than that?
[01:54] <basbryan> dollar:ctrl-alt-f1 and kill -9 (things with x)
[01:54] <basketcase3> Everyone helping me: I have found this site (http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/pctel-linux/), but now have no clue which driver to download, or how to install it.
[01:54] <LjL> shan: nevermind what i said
[01:55] <basbryan> dollar kills X
[01:55] <ahave> dollar: or killallgdm
[01:55] <ahave> dollar: or kilall gdm
[01:55] <LjL> shan: you should simply get a program that can do that. i use camstream, but it's not a really good program, and it needs Qt installed
[01:55] <LjL> shan: perhaps qcam?
[01:55] <Lock-Dog> ompaul,ehh...it would be a prob,ubuntu is on this mashine...i won`t remeber the do list.
[01:56] <basbryan> dollar: my way may not be best way but it does work
[01:56] <Lock-Dog> i need to restart and get into the ubuntu ;.
[01:56] <mandavi> eth0: if your sources.list is ok - check that again - than you should not have problems with apt-get update
[01:56] <basbryan> dollar: i have used it in many different linux dostros
[01:56] <dollar> I dont have gcc
[01:56] <mandavi> eth0: i used automatix and it added plenty os repos...
[01:56] <ahave> blanky: have a look at xbindkeys
[01:56] <eth0> mandavi: apt-get update seemed to work
[01:56] <basbryan> dollar:apt-get install gcc?
[01:56] <mrec> does anyone here have a terratec cinergy T2 usb device?
[01:56] <mandavi> eth0: did you do that? - using automatix?
[01:57] <Kr4t05> When I use 'tar -czv DIR' a load of junk text starts flying through the terminal. Is this bad?
[01:57] <blanky> lol, thanks for the late reply but thanks anyways :P ahave
[01:57] <shan> LjL: many thanks, actually I wanta do some streaming on linux, I got the captured data in /dev/video0, I need to display it on the monitor to test the program, is there a simple way I can achieve it??
[01:57] <eth0> mandavi: i have 9 repos in my sources.list
[01:57] <eth0> er sorry
[01:57] <Lock-Dog> ompaul,so what can i do? ;(
[01:58] <eth0> mandavi: 11 not 9
[01:58] <ompaul> Lock-Dog, print the instructions
[01:58] <brenner> Kr4t05: no.  you used the verbose option.  it's telling you what it's putting in the tar file
[01:58] <dollar> I dont have aything to compile my files with
[01:58] <eth0> mandavi: so i guess all is ok
[01:58] <dollar> I got gcc
[01:58] <brenner> Kr4t05: verboes is the v in cvf
[01:58] <dollar> what else should I get/?? for make, and other stuff
[01:58] <LjL> shan: camstream achieves that, it's just that if you don't have the QT libraries already installed it might take a while downloading...
[01:58] <Lock-Dog> ompaul,ehh...that would be only from work,tomorow ;) 10x NE`way.
[01:58] <basbryan> dollar:gcc can't compile your files?
[01:58] <bimberi> dollar: build-essential

[01:58] <basbryan> bim:ah
[01:59] <estudiante> holaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
[01:59] <mandavi> eth0: it is probably anyway anough - but if you want to be sure to have always the latest stuff - get automatix and run it
[01:59] <bimberi> !automatix
[01:59] <ompaul> Lock-Dog, if windows is on the box use the properties to find out what chipset is there
[01:59] <eth0> mandavi: ok, thanks
[02:00] <LjL> !automatix
[02:00] <ubotu> hmm... automatix is unsafe, it overwrites configuration files, and does things like "echo -e 'ynYn'" that are considered risky. Please do not use it. There are alternative applications (see !easyubuntu), but it's often best to read the documentation.
[02:00] <eth0> mandavi: cant find any package called automatix
[02:00] <dollar> I am trying to install the nvidia driver from www.nvidia.com.. but it fails
[02:00] <LjL> bimberi: it doesn't like you
[02:00] <moparfan90> where can i download the fps game cube?
[02:00] <dollar> it's saying thatit needs another compiler
[02:00] <dollar> !tell dollar about nvidia
[02:00] <basbryan> dollar: 3.4?
[02:01] <estudiante> fglkerjhoijgjhioajldg
[02:01] <basbryan> dollar: install the one it wants to get it to work
[02:01] <JustinLynn> !tell JustinLynn about ati
[02:01] <ahave> Why is Automatix unsafe?
[02:01] <Zenethian> Question:  Is there any difference at all between installing Ubuntu and then apt-getting kubuntu-desktop   vs  installing Kubuntu itself?  Do they have separate deb repositories?  I'm a long-time Debian user who's finding Ubuntu more suitable and interesting and would like to give it a whirl.
[02:02] <Toma-> !automatix
[02:02] <ubotu> automatix is probably unsafe, it overwrites configuration files, and does things like "echo -e 'ynYn'" that are considered risky. Please do not use it. There are alternative applications (see !easyubuntu), but it's often best to read the documentation.
[02:02] <LjL> Zenethian: the only real difference is that doing the former will not uninstall gnome
[02:02] <owner_> OK
[02:02] <iReALLyGotNoTime> i686 means higher end AMD systems right?
[02:02] <Synergy> lol
[02:02] <ccc_> Zenethian: it's not the same, but close :) and yes they use the same repos
[02:02] <Synergy> man do i feel over my head
[02:02] <ompaul> ahave, it has broken many boxes, and we see it here on all to regular basis
[02:02] <Synergy> brenner you still about
[02:02] <Lock-Dog> ompaul..i also have a compaq laptop...pentium 2,433mhz,64ram,4.65gb hd...would the ubuntu run good on the mashine?
[02:02] <navarone> moparfan90, tr google cube and sourceforge   I am pretty sure it is hosted on either sourceforge or freshmeat
[02:02] <Zenethian> ccc_: is there a FAQ somewhere with the differences?
[02:03] <iReALLyGotNoTime> Lock-Dog, yes it will be fine :)
[02:03] <Lock-Dog> iReALLyGotNoTime ;)
[02:03] <iReALLyGotNoTime> Lock-Dog, I put it on a 233 laptop for asterisk
[02:03] <Zenethian> Ah, I found it.
[02:03] <ompaul> Lock-Dog, I would run xubuntu https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu on it
[02:03] <ahave> ompaul: ok, I have allways keept a copy of my sources.list? Is that not enough?
[02:03] <iReALLyGotNoTime> Lock-Dog, it sits on my closet shelf running my home phone system
[02:03] <ompaul> ahave, ehh no in cases where it fails it has broken boxes it is nothing to do with the sources list persay
[02:03] <Lock-Dog> o.k..just for the idea ;) First i want to have it running good with connection on this mashine ;)
[02:04] <ahave> Automatix, does solve a lot of problems for a beginner in Linux
[02:04] <ccc_> ahave: and creates even more in the long run
[02:04] <iReALLyGotNoTime> i686 means higher end AMD systems right?
[02:04] <LjL> iReALLyGotNoTime: not really
[02:04] <bimberi> iReALLyGotNoTime: no, Intel Pentium Pro/Celeron/Pentium II/Pentium III/Pentium 4
[02:04] <brenner> Synergy: yep
[02:04] <ahave> ccc: and by that you mean?
[02:04] <mandavi> eth0: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=138405
[02:04] <basbryan> i686 mens i686 which is not i386 or i486
[02:04] <iReALLyGotNoTime> LjL & bimberi thank you :)
[02:05] <basbryan> means*
[02:05] <ahave> ccc: apart from a new sources.list
[02:05] <ccc_> ahave: for example what ubotu just told us.
[02:05] <bimberi> iReALLyGotNoTime: np :)
[02:05] <iReALLyGotNoTime> so my AMD 3500 can run it?
[02:05] <iReALLyGotNoTime> so when I installed i386 I chose the wrong version?
[02:05] <LjL> iReALLyGotNoTime: you can run just about any x86 binaries, they might run slower though
[02:05] <ompaul> ahave, I am not going to discuss it you can ask here there are several who will agree with me, while I understand your point I do not concur I have had to pick up the pieces too often and then there are times when it is just better for a reinstall
[02:05] <LjL> iReALLyGotNoTime: when you installed what? is that the kernel?
[02:06] <iReALLyGotNoTime> I think, it was the version of Ubuntu I chose
[02:06] <Synergy> brenner i got a half page of stuff with the manual typing
[02:06] <basbryan> ompaul:amen
[02:06] <LjL> iReALLyGotNoTime: no, it was right
[02:06] <ssstormy> iReALLyGotNoTime, it's a cpu architecture
[02:06] <iReALLyGotNoTime> 5.10 for i386
[02:06] <LjL> iReALLyGotNoTime: that means i386 -> 32 bit as opposed to 64 bit
[02:06] <iReALLyGotNoTime> meaning I COULD run faster yet??
[02:06] <Lock-Dog> ompaul,would 4.65gb will be enough for the ubuntu?
[02:07] <LjL> iReALLyGotNoTime: you can install a K7 kernel (your AMD should probably be best optimized with a K7 kernel)
[02:07] <ompaul> Lock-Dog, it is very tight at that
[02:07] <basbryan> ireallY: if u r using i386 and deserve i686 then yes
[02:07] <mandavi> !easyubuntu
[02:07] <ubotu> easyubuntu is an easy-to-use program for installing all your favorites. Java, Nvidia/ATI, and more. It is as safe as the team can make it. It doesn't change any settings by default. http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/ or #easyubuntu
[02:07] <iReALLyGotNoTime> LjL all I got to say is WOW, it is already hella fast
[02:07] <Lock-Dog> ompaul,didn`t understand the answer.
[02:07] <LjL> iReALLyGotNoTime: it won't really get much faster

[02:08] <ahave> ompaul, ccc_: what are the issues? I've read ubotu again, but I still don't have a clue, about what the issues is?
[02:08] <ahave> is=are
[02:08] <Lock-Dog> iReALLyGotNoTime,xmm...i didn`t dowload the livecd...but i can ;)
[02:08] <mandavi> eth0: no, and i have just read it is not completely save to use it... you should use easyubuntu instead
[02:08] <LjL> iReALLyGotNoTime: it's just low-level optimizations. i think it's still worth installing it, though, as even though the performance increase (is increase a noun? i'm tired) might be marginal, it never gave me a problem - and i don't think it gives problems in general
[02:08] <mandavi> eth0: http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/
[02:08] <eth0> mandavi: ah ok, thanks
[02:08] <basbryan> ljl:4 me it doesn't........
[02:09] <navarone> Lock-Dog, are you going witha  windowsless system? If not you may want to add a fat32 partition to make sharing files between windows and linux a bit less troublesome
[02:09] <ahave> About Automatix, its not a time issue, but merely a convinience thing
[02:09] <iReALLyGotNoTime> Lock-Dog, it downloaded at 650k for me, only took 18 minutes :)
[02:09] <iReALLyGotNoTime> LjL, thanks for the tip but configuring everything again doesn't sound like fun LOL
[02:10] <ccc_> ahave: it screws up configuration, in some cases irreversible. try reading "man apt-get" and look for "--force-yes". it does that, for example. i.e. not good.
[02:10] <LjL> ahave: automatix breaks. lots of people have used automatix and ended up reinstalling their Ubuntu. it changes config files in a way that's not really smart enough, and things like that.
[02:10] <LjL> !tell ahave about easyubuntu
[02:10] <navarone> iReALLyGotNoTime, you must be on a T1 connection
[02:10] <LjL> iReALLyGotNoTime: no need to configure anything, just "sudo apt-get install linux-k7"

[02:12] <ompaul> ahave, okay, if you use it and it works fine, if it fails you it will break your machine, read the thread on the sounder mailing list about --force-yes and its replacement by echo Y -- just not good - btw --force-yes which is not used today is replaced by a Y to --assume-yes just the same thing read the apt-get man page, and it overwrites config files with no regard to what is there so this topic is now closed you can go to #ubuntu-offtopic to conti

[02:12] <Synergy> my wifes pc uses a usb ehternet adapter
[02:12] <SAM_theman> i can't even log on xchat ??
[02:12] <LjL> iReALLyGotNoTime: yeah. the actual packages it will install are caleld linux-kernel-2.6.12-10-k7 or something and similar things, but linux-k7 alone will install all of that
[02:12] <Synergy> can ubuntu handel that
[02:12] <SAM_theman> hurry my dad needs his comp!
[02:12] <navarone> iReALLyGotNoTime, you must've had a good tailwind...lol
[02:12] <maxkelley> Synergy: only one way to try!
[02:12] <ahave> LjL: I've no problem with Ubuntu, but if no one tells me what the issues are, I've no chance of telling others.
[02:12] <iReALLyGotNoTime> LjL, I won't lose anything? not even my new firefox bookmarks?
[02:13] <maxkelley> SAM_theman: eh? log in on xchat?
[02:13] <moparfan90> ok... when i try to run cube_unix (he instal file for h game cube i get a error... can i paste it?
[02:13] <ompaul> !tell SAM_theman about nvidia
[02:13] <iReALLyGotNoTime> navarone, haha, I used a download accelerator for the first time in 3 years for that :P
[02:13] <SAM_theman> i did that
[02:13] <ccc_> ahave: i/we just did tell you :)
[02:13] <ahave> ompaul: I will, and thanks for
[02:13] <Zenethian> In debian I often run the "unstable" version.  Is there an equivilant 'bleeding edge' package set in Ubuntu?
[02:13] <iReALLyGotNoTime> navarone, flash get for firefox, it was great
[02:13] <LjL> iReALLyGotNoTime: no. in the very worst case, you won't be able to boot with the new kernel -- which simply means you'll have to select the old kernel from your boot screen
[02:13] <bimberi> ubotu tell Zenethian about dapper
[02:13] <maxkelley> Zenethian: dapper is the new rel.. nvm
[02:13] <Zenethian> thanks  :)
[02:14] <bimberi> ubotu tell Zenethian about getdapper
[02:14] <iReALLyGotNoTime> LjL, will the old automatically load the k7?
[02:14] <navarone> iReALLyGotNoTime, I have changed arch about 3 times in synaptic...it's painless...grub is updated and you can chose which you want to load at boot. And you can uninstall any kernels afterwards and it will free up the space and update grub again for you
[02:14] <bimberi> Zenethian: np :)
[02:14] <basbryan> ubotu:??   is colon needed?
[02:14] <ubotu> ...but  is already something else...
[02:14] <iReALLyGotNoTime> navarone, thank you!
[02:14] <navarone> iReALLyGotNoTime, no prob
[02:14] <LjL> ahave: well just see what the bot said as an example. "echo yNYn" or things like that are scary. i'd really like a program like that to actually *check* what it's doing
[02:14] <Lock-Dog> k guys...i`ll do everything tomorow...going to read an art of deception for a while...10x for the help and your time.
[02:14] <LjL> iReALLyGotNoTime: what?
[02:14] <Lock-Dog> bb
[02:15] <iReALLyGotNoTime> LjL, got it already thank you, I will do update tonight :)
[02:15] <ompaul> Lock-Dog, read, but question what you read
[02:15] <brenner> navarone: ohw do you uninstall a kernel?
[02:15] <Em`Zee> could anyone help me compile the Tulip kernel module? I keep getting "dereferencing pointer to incomplete type" errors
[02:15] <Lock-Dog> ompaul,o e ;)
[02:15] <LjL> iReALLyGotNoTime: the new (k7) kernel will be loaded by default after you install it. if you instead launch the old kernel from the boot screen, then you won't be using any K7 optimizations
[02:15] <brenner> navarone: is it ust a case of removing for e.g. all *386* packages
[02:15] <Lock-Dog> ompaul,did you read it?
[02:15] <brenner> s/ust/just
[02:15] <navarone> brenner I would search in synaptic for the arch ie 386 or whathave you and then select it for removal
[02:16] <Lock-Dog> ;)
[02:16] <navarone> brenner...pretty much from my experience
[02:16] <brenner> navarone: ah. cheers
[02:16] <ompaul> Lock-Dog, it is offtopic - please do not discuss it here
[02:16] <Lock-Dog> right
[02:16] <Lock-Dog> sorry
[02:16] <Lock-Dog> godd night

[02:16] <ompaul> !tell SAM_theman about msgthebot
[02:16] <Kr4t05> n00b question: Is it normal to see junk text when you're tar-ing files via terminal?
[02:17] <LjL> Kr4t05: no
[02:17] <SAM_theman> !tell SAM_theman about x800*640 problem
[02:17] <Kr4t05> o.o
[02:17] <brenner> moparfan90: no
[02:17] <Kr4t05> LjL: Uh...
[02:17] <moparfan90> oo ok
[02:17] <moparfan90> lol
[02:17] <IdleOne> SAM_theman>  use /msg ubotu searchterm
[02:17] <LjL> Kr4t05: the correct syntax for creating a tar archive is "tar -cf archive.tar files or directories to tar"
[02:17] <brenner> moparfan90: why do you ask?
[02:17] <LjL> Kr4t05: the syntax for extracting a tar archive is "tar -xf archive.tar"
[02:18] <moparfan90> does anyone have the game cube working on there system
[02:18] <moparfan90> ?
[02:18] <petaka> Hello everybody!
[02:18] <moparfan90> becuse i thought you were someone i know
[02:18] <ompaul> SAM_theman, (A) message the bot don't do it in the channel when looking for info for youself and (B) I will have the bot send you something I believe to be what your looking for
[02:18] <Rory|FireShaper> Hey all!
[02:18] <SAM_theman> nope
[02:18] <SAM_theman> nothing works
[02:18] <brenner> moparfan90: not likely. i'm in melbourne
[02:18] <SAM_theman> i sort of pissed
[02:18] <IdleOne> heya Rory|FireShaper
[02:18] <Kr4t05> LjL: That explains everything. Thanks
[02:19] <moparfan90> oo
[02:19] <moparfan90> ok :)
[02:19] <Rory|FireShaper> I'm having a problem, when I try to boot from a CD my comp starts up and then it just shuts off
[02:19] <petaka> Can somebody advice me on how to compile the oficial nforce drivers from nvidia.com for Breezy ?
[02:20] <Bubben> witch is the latest kernel in ubuntu?
[02:20] <bimberi> Bubben: breezy uses 2.6.12, Dapper (the development release) 2.6.15
[02:20] <ompaul> Bubben, the lastest stable is 2.6.12-10-386
[02:20] <Bubben> I found more in synaptic
[02:21] <Bubben> okey
[02:21] <dollar> why is linux better than windows? i'm a new linux user so ease up on me plz
[02:22] <moparfan90> omfg... beause windows sucks
[02:22] <Em`Zee> dollar; A) It's free =)
[02:22] <Em`Zee> B) The community for support is huge. As you can see, this channel alone has over 550 users.
[02:22] <basbryan> b) it is harder to take over
[02:22] <ompaul> dollar, that can be discussed in the channel #ubuntu-offtopic and is now closed here
[02:22] <Em`Zee> C) It's proven to be more secure
[02:22] <Em`Zee> whoop
[02:22] <basbryan> c) it isn't evil
[02:23] <moparfan90> -free -easy to customize or your look and hardware..
[02:23] <curley_sue> anyone has an idea how to use xxkb?
[02:23] <Rory|FireShaper> so no one knows?
[02:23] <chuckyp> Rory|FireShaper, what cd are you trying to boot to?
[02:23] <moparfan90> Rory|FireShaper, what does the screen say right bedore if shutsoff?
[02:23] <ompaul> have a look at these http://wiki.ubuntu.com/BootOptions and  http://wiki.ubuntu.com/PaulsKludge not perfect but a start
[02:23] <basbryan> rory|f: an mobo prob?  or bios?
[02:24] <ahave> apt-get-force-yes: apart from breaking your system, is there any other things it could potentially do?
[02:24] <ompaul> ahave, is that not enough?
[02:24] <LjL> ahave: demons coming out of your nose
[02:24] <Toma-> ahave, isnt that enough to not do it?
[02:24] <ahave> are there no rules if you do force-yes?
[02:24] <basbryan> nose demons!!!!   rotf
[02:25] <ompaul> ahave, having a non working machine is pretty much a bad thing, as least imho
[02:25] <Kube> it's free????!!! someone sold it to me for 50$... he said the ubuntu is like windows... so u must pay for it
[02:25] <LjL> basbryan: that's from comp.lang.c - their favorite way of explaining what happens when you invoke undefined behavior
[02:25] <basbryan> lol
[02:25] <LjL> Kube: you're been ripped off then
[02:25] <moparfan90> Kube, haha you ot pwnd
[02:25] <Em`Zee> Kube; Dear lord I hope you're kidding...
[02:25] <Toma-> Kube, report them to canonical :)
[02:25] <basbryan> linux is free in every sense
[02:25] <ahave> ompaul: you could reinstall, even though its an inconviniance
[02:26] <Kube> he gave his email if i need anything else... can u do smth abt it???/
[02:26] <ompaul> ahave, for a new user that could be hell on earth if they have done anything like bring data to it
[02:26] <Toma-> you can get sued for selling it for more than the distribution chost, iirc...
[02:26] <Rory|FireShaper> basbryan: I dunno though. I've looked into flashing my bios but it seems that you really can't with linux
[02:26] <Toma-> *cost
[02:26] <ompaul> ahave, as they say in all the best burger joints, have it your way, I consider you warned :)
[02:26] <LjL> Kube: i don't know, but i don't think. you could sue him i suppose.
[02:26] <basbryan> rory: wtf?  flashing is flashing regardless of os
[02:26] <Tom_Kidd> I'm playing Unreal Tournament 2004, and I've set my Anti-Aliasing to 8x and my Antistropic to 16x via nvidia-settings. Yet I seriously doubt it's actually working, is UT2004 overriding my settings or something?
[02:26] <ompaul> ahave, but we don't allow people to say it here without the stream of No and Don't like you have seen
[02:27] <Kube> btw
[02:27] <Toma-> ahave, using force-yes will basically destroy apt databases. you wont be able to get updates, use apt or synaptic
[02:27] <ompaul> ahave, because we pick up pieces and there are better things to help with
[02:27] <Kube> 3ddeskd: glXIsDirect failed, no Direct Rendering possible!
[02:27] <Kube> 3ddeskd: Please configure hardware acceleration.  Exiting.
[02:27] <Kube> i installed all nvidia drivers
[02:27] <Kube> with synaptic
[02:27] <Tom_Kidd> nvidia-glx-config enable?
[02:27] <basbryan> rory: exe might not be built for linux, but a flash is a flash
[02:27] <ahave> ompaul: I can see that, but what does that option actually means??  Would synaptic otherwise warn you, that you where doing something irreversible if you where installing that way?
[02:27] <chuckyp> !tell Kube about nvidia
[02:27] <Kube> okay/
[02:28] <Rory|FireShaper> basbryan: Do you know of an easy way to flash with USB drive? I don't have a floppy.. anyway, most flash utils need DOS, right?
[02:28] <LjL> Kube: by the way, for your information, not only Linux itself is free, but as far as Ubuntu in particular, you can have free CDs shipped to you.
[02:28] <basbryan> rory:??
[02:28] <basbryan> rory:no...
[02:28] <petaka> is anyone using N-FORCE drivers??
[02:28] <Zenethian> Tom_Kidd: In general I find that UT never obeys the AF or AA settings.
[02:28] <Toma-> Rory|FireShaper, i have to install freedos then use that to load a flashbios.exe program onto the disk
[02:28] <basbryan> freedos anyone?
[02:28] <maxkelley> basbryan: k...
[02:28] <Tom_Kidd> I'll check out ut2004.ini then
[02:28] <Tom_Kidd> Horrible edges :(
[02:29] <Zenethian> hehe yeah
[02:29] <Toma-> !info freedos
[02:29] <bosco> hey how do i copy a cd to my hard drive
[02:29] <Zenethian> I think UT2007 will play better with it
[02:29] <bosco> in terminal
[02:29] <Zenethian> bosco: dd if=/dev/cdrom of=yourfile.iso
[02:29] <Toma-> !info dosemu-freedos

[02:29] <Tom_Kidd> Hehe I'm trying to save up some big bucks for an upgrade to handle UT2007
[02:29] <Zenethian> replace /dev/cdrom with your cd drive device, like /dev/hdc or whatever
[02:29] <Tom_Kidd> Got a 6600GT right now, could probably play it with lowish-medium settings
[02:29] <navarone> basbryan, I think Rory|FireShaper 's biggest obstacle is no floppy...but maybe a boot-cd with the flash util is possible?
[02:29] <bosco> Zenethian, it is a music cd
[02:29] <Zenethian> Tom_Kidd: Heh, I have the same card.  I turn all the settings pretty low.
[02:29] <basbryan> sure
[02:30] <bosco> Zenethian,  not an sio
[02:30] <bosco> isos
[02:30] <basbryan> words scared me...  no one did wrong
[02:30] <Zenethian> bosco: so?  you can still raw copy it.  Are you asking how to convert the music into a wav file?
[02:30] <bosco> Zenethian,  i need to copy it to my hard drive so i can play it in XMMS
[02:31] <Zenethian> in that case, you'll want to use cdparanoia
[02:31] <Zenethian> it's a cd WAV ripper
[02:31] <dogmain4teeth> hello all, i am having trouble installing ubuntu 5.10 i386 on my Dell Inspiron 6000.  The install process gets up to about 6% through "Installing the base system" then the cd drive stops spinning at a normal rate and it makes a strange sound, continues to copy files much slower (spends about 30 minutes on 6%), and then comes up with an error message.
[02:31] <chuckyp> Tom_Kidd, i'm sure the higher end nvidia cards out right now will play it.
[02:31] <Toma-> !info grip
[02:31] <ompaul> ahave, I am not going to spend the evening discussing the minutia of apt-get or synaptic as I said it is offtopic if you want to take it up as conversation, it can force but at least you have to tell it it does not do it by choice

[02:31] <Zenethian> it's a bit complicated to use, at least moreso than dd is., you'll wanna read the manpage
[02:31] <LjL> dogmain4teeth: your CD is probably broken. check it and/or burn another
[02:31] <Tom_Kidd> chukyp: Yeah, I'm hoping to get a 7800GTX 256mb or a 7800GT 256mb
[02:31] <Zenethian> heh
[02:32] <philippe_> fff
[02:32] <BlueEagle> dogmain4teeth: Check the MD5 sum of the .iso you downloaded and clean the cd-rom drive.
[02:32] <Tom_Kidd> and probably upgrade to 2gigs instead of one, for all of that texturing memory.
[02:32] <Toma-> dogmain4teeth, sounds like an error in burning the iso :(
[02:32] <Zenethian> I'm not buying another video card until I upgrade my mobo and processor.
[02:32] <moooooo> lol  DCC SEND "string" 0 0 0

[02:32] <Tom_Kidd> I got an AMD64 3000+ but I've OC'd it to 2.65ghz stable
[02:32] <Zenethian> nice.
[02:32] <Tom_Kidd> Too bad it's winchester (No SSE3)
[02:32] <Zenethian> I'm still on an old XP 2600
[02:32] <basbryan> sorry
[02:32] <ahave> ompaul: I do understand your concerns
[02:33] <Rory|FireShaper> oh well, I guess I'll have to figure it out from somewhere else....
[02:33] <maxkelley> Zenethian: i wish I had an athlon xp..
[02:33] <Zenethian> hehe, whatcha got?
[02:33] <Rory|FireShaper> thanks for ya'll's help
[02:33] <Toma-> Tom_Kidd, youd do better getting an SLI setup, imho
[02:33] <BlueEagle> basbryan: "windows is for computers what petrol is for the car" is a common misconception afaik.
[02:33] <dogmain4teeth> i am also having a similar problem with my liveCD in every computer in the house!
[02:33] <basbryan> blueEagle: it is
[02:33] <maxkelley> Zenethian: this one right here is an 866mhz p3, my main one is p4 2.6ghz... i want an AMD
[02:33] <Zenethian> BlueDevil: A funny quote I heard is "A PC without Windows is like Chocolate Cake without the mustard."
[02:33] <navarone> Rory|FireShaper, are you able to change boot sequence in bios setup? You should eb able to reach bios setup during boot by pressing "del" key or something similar depending on your computer
[02:33] <Tom_Kidd> I'll probably get an SLI motherboard, for the sole reason of if I upgrade.. Otherwise I'm too broke
[02:33] <basbryan> and in theory i am ok with that
[02:33] <maxkelley> dogmain4teeth: it's possible you have a bad cd.
[02:33] <curley_sue> HELP any ideas on how to run xxkb?!
[02:34] <BlueEagle> dogmain4teeth: Again, check the MD5sum of the iso and the burned CD.
[02:34] <basbryan> but in reality i run and hide
[02:34] <ompaul> theskunk, cratel1 FatDarrel glommer dogmain4teeth if you adjust your client to irc on 8001 that will stop happening it is a bug in your linksys (maybe netgear)
[02:34] <basbryan> biggots ignore logic (period)
[02:34] <Zenethian> basbryan: actually bigots don't ignore logic, they make up logic to fit their bigotry.
[02:34] <bimberi> ubotu tell dogmain4teeth about verify
[02:34] <LjL> ompaul: i had ubotu tell them already ;)

[02:39] <LjL> ubuntu_: you should try pressing alt+f1, and see if that gives you a login prompt. if it does, and you can login, you should then be able to type "irssi", followed by "/server irc.freenode.org", followed by "/join #ubuntu" to be back here
[02:40] <ompaul> jason install build-essential even
[02:40] <jason> LOL -- in progress -- thanks
[02:40] <LjL> jason: after that, you'll need a few things. the GTK includes, mainly
[02:40] <ubuntu_> LjL: okay, one minute
[02:40] <jason> ljl -- ok - -thanks
 what is that
[02:41] <LjL> jason: you can probably try "sudo apt-get build-dep xchat". while that command will install the dependencies needed to compile xchat 2.4.4, i suppose they could easily be the same as for 2.6
[02:41] <jeroenvrp> help, does someone knows something about apache and auth_digest!!?
 what is that
[02:41] <Tom_Kidd> Can wine run under 64-bit OS?
[02:41] <bosco> what is that command
[02:41] <jason> kewl - thanks
[02:41] <redguy> Tom_Kidd: no
[02:41] <V4Vendetta> anyone here use the newest gtkpod ?
[02:42] <Tom_Kidd> Anyone trying to convert it?
[02:42] <pussfeller> yo how do i burn a floppy image
[02:42] <redguy> Tom_Kidd: propably yes, look at www.winehq.org
[02:42] <pussfeller> !floppy
[02:42] <ubotu> To mount floppy disks, see here : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MakeFloppyDriveAvailableToEveryone
[02:42] <pussfeller> !burnfloppy
[02:42] <ubotu> pussfeller: Some people juggle geese. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[02:43] <redguy> Tom_Kidd: but you might run it in a 32bit chroot environment
[02:43] <redguy> !tell Tom_Kidd about chroot
[02:43] <LjL> pussfeller: what do you mean "burn a floppy"?
[02:43] <LjL> pussfeller: oh i see
[02:43] <LjL> pussfeller: well it depends what format the image is in
[02:43] <pussfeller> LjL: I wanna make a windows rescue disk
[02:43] <pussfeller> LjL: or rather, an NTFS rescue thingee
[02:43] <ompaul> pussfeller, its too late that should have been done years ago :-)
[02:44] <LjL> pussfeller: if it's a raw image, i guess dd if=filename of=/dev/fd0 will work (but check that your floppy is actually /dev/fd0)
[02:44] <Tom_Kidd> Yeah I think I'm going to upgrade to 64-bit dapper and set up a 32-bit chroot
[02:44] <V4Vendetta> Tom_Kidd~ 64bit dapper, that's just asking for problems :-P
[02:44] <Tom_Kidd> Oh well, suck it :>
[02:44] <V4Vendetta> :-P
[02:44] <Tom_Kidd> I need something to do, anyways.
[02:44] <pussfeller> unless someone can tell me why I get all these buffer I/O errrors off the ntfs partition when I try to mount it, but I can mount the vfat Dell thingee at the front
[02:45] <terje_> hi do anyone know how do install skype on ubuntu amd64?
[02:45] <Gyoza> Quick question: To modify a printer setting, should I mess with "printer.conf.O" or "printer.conf"?
[02:45] <JoshRA> !skype
[02:45] <ubotu> skype is, like, http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeHowto/ Breezy deb: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages/
[02:45] <neil> hello
[02:45] <ompaul> pussfeller, just don't try to write to ntfs from linux
[02:45] <LjL> pussfeller: buffer i/o errors? you sure your HD is not broken?
[02:45] <eth0> could anyone tell me why 'python' would be connecting to a load of hosts?
[02:45] <neil> LjL: This is ubuntu_ from a couple minutes ago
[02:45] <pussfeller> ompaul: I wont, im just trying to rescue some data to make some $$
[02:46] <neil> LjL: I've logged in now from the command prompt
[02:46] <eth0> connecting/connected
[02:46] <LjL> neil: ok, press alt+f2 (alt+f1 will get you back) and try "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start"
[02:46] <dogmain4teeth> !gimp
[02:46] <ubotu> [gimp]  at http://www.gimp.org
[02:46] <ompaul> !tell pussfeller about ntfs
[02:46] <pussfeller> LjL: well, you would think its broken, but, why can I access the vfat part?
[02:47] <ompaul> pussfeller, that is about as good as it gets then you can burn it or put it on a key and get on with your life :)
[02:47] <JoshRA> !tell joshra about skype
[02:47] <dogmain4teeth> !verify
[02:47] <ubotu> verify is probably to check the integrity of your installation media, one way is to visit https://wiki.ubuntu.com/VerifyIsoHowto
[02:47] <LjL> pussfeller: the fat partition might be on a part that is not broken. anyway, i'm not really sure, it's just that buffer i/o error recalls me of a broken HD for some reason (possibly because it happened to me)
[02:47] <LjL> pussfeller: you could install the "smartmontools" package to check
[02:47] <neil> LjL: It gave me a fail message for that command
[02:48] <````bulldogg> hello
[02:48] <LjL> neil: did it say anything more specific, or just that it failed?
[02:48] <redguy> pussfeller: it might as well be broken/loose IDE cable or faulty controller
[02:48] <neil> LjL: "Starting GNOME display manager....           [fail] "
[02:48] <Tom_Kidd> Is there anywhere where I can get a minimalistic copy of dapper or is the only iso available full version?
[02:48] <````bulldogg> can someone help me out.... its kind of a pain...
[02:48] <Tom_Kidd> I don't really need X-Server etc
[02:48] <Tom_Kidd> x-*
[02:49] <NickGarvey> Tom_Kidd: read the title of this room
[02:49] <ompaul> Tom_Kidd, get the full gig and then just install server as the machine comes up it is the first option
[02:49] <NickGarvey> I don't know what dapper is but theres a diff room for it
[02:49] <LjL> neil: i see. try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg", it will ask you a few questions, most of which can probably be answered by just pressing Enter and using the default answer (but do check what they're asking). when it asks about resolutions that you want to use, choose a "safe" one, like 800x600
[02:49] <basbryan> ubunt+1
[02:49] <Tom_Kidd> ompaul: Was trying to avoid wasting bandwidth, anyway.
[02:49] <ompaul> !dapper
[02:49] <ubotu> methinks dapper is the pre-release name for next edition of Ubuntu, release name 6.04. Due 20th April. It is Development Software - May Break! > /join #ubuntu+1 for IRC Use  http://tinyurl.com/rtgxo for easy updates
[02:49] <redguy> !tell ````bulldogg about ask
[02:50] <pussfeller> redguy: thats not it, but thats a good idea
[02:50] <eth0> could anyone tell me why 'python' would be connected to a load of hosts?
[02:50] <````bulldogg> okay.. here goes... I have a copy of breezy installed on this computer... I have an ATI Radeon x700 Pro with 256 also installed.... I can only use the gui if I use the vesa driver..... I have went out to ati downloaded the drive done many howto's... the 3D Acceleration is not working
[02:50] <redguy> pussfeller: anyway, smartmontools is the way to go
[02:50] <jimcooncat> I installed vmware server. Now I have a patched kernel. Do you have some docs for dealing with apt-get and patched kernels?
[02:50] <redguy> !tell ````bulldogg about ati
[02:51] <redguy> ````bulldogg: read the wiki page ubotu sent you
[02:51] <pussfeller> eth0: python is a language, like c or ruby, and if you see "python something" in like a ps then a python powered program is running
[02:51] <pussfeller> or maybe you already know that
[02:51] <````bulldogg> okay thanks
[02:51] <LjL> neil: oh, i mean, make sure you choose *only* that one safe resolution, and that all others are unchecked
[02:51] <basbryan> eth0:listen to puss
[02:52] <pussfeller> alot of scripts use  python, expecially in irc/im clients
[02:52] <basbryan> and gdesklets...
[02:52] <redguy> eth0: nicotine, for example, is a python program
[02:52] <eth0> pussfeller: ah i c, yea i know that python was a language
[02:52] <pussfeller> do ps ax | grep python and tell us what it says
[02:52] <LjL> in the pastebin if it's more than one line, thanks
[02:53] <V4Vendetta> how long does a work unit on folding @ home usually take?
[02:53] <V4Vendetta> i have f@H running on my shell account.
[02:53] <pussfeller> you can also do nestat -autvnp and it should tell you what prog is running on what port, unless it just says, python
[02:53] <mikeazorin> should i install ubuntu on my xp computer
[02:53] <basbryan> netstat*??
[02:53] <V4Vendetta> mikeazorin~ if you want
[02:53] <basbryan> mike:yes
[02:54] <mikeazorin> what will i get out of it
[02:54] <redguy> V4Vendetta: this depends on the processing power of the machine
[02:54] <mikeazorin> how will my computer be more functional
[02:54] <DoTheRodeo_> ey. how do you kill gnome-panel?
[02:54] <V4Vendetta> redguy~ it's a server
[02:54] <V4Vendetta> redguy~ it's freebsd, how do i figure out what processor it has?
[02:55] <basbryan> "a computer without windows is like a dog without a brick on it's head"    i can't recall where i stole that from
[02:55] <javiolo> anyone here owns a embedded machine? Id like to setup a backup server
[02:55] <redguy> V4Vendetta: no idea
[02:55] <redguy> V4Vendetta: maybe there is /proc/cpuinfo, but I doubt it
[02:55] <Toma> mikeazorin, its alot more configurable, mine looks a little like MacOS cross with XP... you also wont have to download pirated software :D theres a linux program for just about every purpose...
[02:55] <pussfeller> err netstat
[02:56] <chuckyp> How do you delete something from the applications menu.  Package was already removed via apt-get but it left a link behind In Applications.
[02:56] <mikeazorin> i don't download pirate software on windows, only on mac
[02:56] <tristanmike> lol
[02:56] <V4Vendetta> redguy~ nope
[02:56] <ali4728> I have static IP at home for internet connection and dynamic IP for elsewhere for my laptop wireless connection. Is there a program that can save me from having to reconfigure /etc/network/interfaces file?
[02:56] <Toma> well mikeazorin, just about everything for linux is GPL, meaning its free + free...
[02:57] <bimberi> chuckyp: Applications -> System Tools -> Menu Editor (iirc)
[02:57] <pussfeller> ali4728: i know kubuntu has multiple network profiles, i dont know about the gnome tools
[02:57] <mikeazorin> i'm familiar with the gpl, gpl applications, and somewhat with linux. i just can't figure out why i should use linux.
[02:57] <neil> LjL: so I did that... and now I'm back to a command prompt
[02:57] <Toma> mikeazorin, have you tried it?
[02:57] <LjL> neil: try sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start again
[02:58] <chuckyp> bimberi, delete is greyed out.
[02:58] <DoTheRodeo_> ey. how do you kill gnome-panel?
[02:58] <pussfeller> cause apple and windows are evil?
[02:58] <pussfeller> err MS
[02:58] <Toma> evil because they make money?
[02:58] <mikeazorin> yea, i've tried it before. mandrake, gentoo, ubuntu, knoppix.
[02:58] <pussfeller> no....
[02:58] <cafuego> mikeazorin: You don't _have_ to.
[02:58] <bimberi> chuckyp: hmmk
[02:58] <basbryan> because gpl won't increase your license fee by 300%
[02:58] <jon_> mikeazorin, I use linux because it's an adventure.   It's free.   Is "whereami" program for multiple network configs?
[02:59] <jon_> mikeazorin, Plus I don't want my computer raided by the MS police ;)
[02:59] <basbryan> which is what i have been told my vb.net app will cost us
[02:59] <basbryan> because they steal it
[02:59] <basbryan> #offtopic?
[02:59] <Toma> mikeazorin, i guess linux or even mac will be the future after vista takes a high-dive onto a solid metal surface
[02:59] <LjL> basbryan: actually, my GPL licence fees for ubuntu have just increased by 2430% ;-) anyway, yeah, offtopic i guess
[03:00] <mikeazorin> toma: meaning unix... i use mac os x on my ibook
[03:00] <chuckyp> bimberi, nevermind I unchecked it and it appears it deleted it.   Is there a way to reload gnome menu isn't it killall -9 gnome-panel or something?
[03:00] <basbryan> ljl your ubuntu license went from free to not free?
[03:00] <neil> LjL: It failed again
[03:00] <Toma> mikeazorin, no, MacOSX for x86
[03:00] <mikeazorin> toma: incompatible with my chipset
[03:00] <Toma> :(
[03:00] <bimberi> chuckyp: 'killall gnome-panel' should do, no need to be brutal :)
[03:00] <LjL> basbryan: no, it went from 0.00 to 24,3 times 0.00
[03:01] <Morfosomo> how can i find out if my computer has a pci-e slot without opening it?
[03:01] <basbryan> 24X0 is 0
[03:01] <basbryan> or am i confused?
[03:01] <brenner> Morfosomo: read the manual? :P
[03:01] <pussfeller> why not just open it?
[03:01] <Toma> Morfosomo, check your motherboard box?
[03:01] <mikeazorin> morfosomo, look it up on google
[03:01] <LjL> neil: don't really know what is going on. you could try "sudo apt-get update" and then "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" to download any updates/fixes that were released
[03:01] <pussfeller> i ussually use a hammer to get mine open
[03:01] <Toma> 24x0 = 0
[03:01] <ompaul> mikeazorin, maybe it is not for you, however this is not a linux discussion channel it is support move to #ubuntu-offtopic if you want discussion thanks
[03:02] <basbryan> ljl: u r paying for ubuntu or ubuntu support?
[03:02] <IdleOne> -
[03:02] <IdleOne> 9
[03:02] <Toma> dist-upgrade? no.
[03:02] <chuckyp> bimberi, nah didn't work still there.  I even tried sudo smeg and unchekcing it that way.  Still didn't work.
[03:02] <IdleOne> +-++++++++++++c
[03:02] <IdleOne> 90jh
[03:02] <Morfosomo> yay great there a lin command for that,.. yeah i ll GOOGLE for it and let you guys know
[03:02] <ompaul> IdleOne, ?
[03:02] <basbryan> ubuntu is free
[03:02] <jimcooncat> I installed vmware server. Now I have a patched kernel. Do you have some docs for dealing with apt-get and patched kernels?
[03:02] <neil> LgL: could it have something to do with having an nVidia card?
[03:02] <basbryan> as is all linux
[03:02] <LjL> basbryan: you're not confused. it was a *joke*. technically, i can surely say that my fees increased by any% since they went from 0 to x times 0
[03:02] <basbryan> HAHAHA
[03:02] <neil> LjL: could it have something to do with having an nVidia card?
[03:02] <basbryan> good one
[03:03] <basbryan> that beats our vb increase
[03:03] <Toma> i hae technicallity jokes...
[03:03] <Toma> *hate
[03:03] <LjL> neil: don't think. if it's working with the live cd, it should be working on your HD too
[03:03] <Toma> theres more explaining than laughing involved
[03:03] <bimberi> chuckyp: sorry, i'm not sure from here :|
[03:03] <LjL> neil: my opinion is that something went wrong during install
[03:03] <neil> LjL: okay, well i'll see what I can do with another install
[03:04] <IdleOne> ;;hppp xcc
[03:04] <LjL> neil: i'd give the dist-upgrade a try first tho
[03:04] <neil> LjL: ya, i will
[03:04] <LjL> neil: at least if you've got a faster connection, otherwise it may be quicker to reinstall
[03:05] <LjL> uh?
[03:05] <chuckyp> hrm... Anyone else no how to delete something from applications menu in gnome.  tried Applications>system tools>applications menu editor and delete is greyed out.
[03:05] <basbryan> which irc channel discusses things like SCO vs IBM in a lively fashion?
[03:05] <brenner> what did idle do?
[03:05] <Toma> silly
[03:06] <LjL> ompaul, i don't think idleone was trying to do anything bad
[03:06] <LjL> though, hmm
[03:06] <ompaul> na I think something is hitting his keyboard - has been for a little while
[03:06] <basbryan> lol
[03:06] <LjL> yeah you're right looks like raw PPP or something
[03:06] <ompaul> whan then happend was me http://folding.stanford.edu/
[03:06] <ompaul> woo
[03:07] <basbryan> is there a groklaw irc?
[03:07] <ompaul> whan then happend was me making a mistake I did not do the message correctly so we got msg as modes
[03:07] <ompaul> basbryan, check on groklaw there is something
[03:07] <Toma> ahhhhh +msg hahah
[03:08] <Toma> i c now
[03:08] <LjL> aw :)
[03:08] <Toma> root_, im guessing youre using root?
[03:08] <Toma> and ure from WA? :D
[03:08] <joss> hola
[03:09] <tedda> hi can anyone help me, im trying to install skype, but it says package architecture (i386) does not match system (amd64)
[03:09] <````bulldogg> still couldn't get it to work
[03:09] <Toma> :)
[03:09] <tedda> woot do i need to do?
[03:09] <````bulldogg> no 3d acceleratoin.. I do the gears and they barely move
[03:09] <Raovq> there we go
[03:09] <LjL> ompaul: nevermind the raw PPP (if anything it could look like raw modem data anyway), it does just look like something's hitting his kb ;)
[03:10] <Toma> tedda, youll need to find a 64bit version of syke, afaik, it doesnt exist...
[03:10] <LjL> hope it's not the dog. not if it's a big dog anyway
[03:10] <Raovq> does anyone know how to fix this?The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[03:10] <Raovq>   opera: Depends: libqt3c102-mt but it is not installable
[03:10] <basbryan> google groklaw and irc gives me...   didn't work
[03:10] <tedda> :(
[03:10] <brenner> what's with cats and k/boards?  everyone seems to guess it's the cat's fault
[03:10] <Toma> tedda, there is another way
[03:10] <LjL> brenner: do you have a better guess? =)
[03:10] <brenner> basbryan: most people would talk about that on a newsgroup or forum
[03:11] <tedda> :) and the way is?
[03:11] <basbryan> kk
[03:11] <brenner> LjL: no...ut it's always the cat. :)
[03:11] <brenner> s/ut/but
[03:11] <Toma> tedda, youre not using kde are you?
[03:12] <tedda> em im sorry, i just installed linux today, its the first time i use linux :(
[03:12] <tedda> woot is kde?
[03:13] <ompaul> tedda, a good resource is docs.ubuntu.com bookmark that one
[03:13] <chuckyp> tedda, You really should read the wiki for the post install steps etc.. there is a lot of good information in there.
[03:13] <brenner> Raovq: install the qt package
[03:13] <shiv> is there a way to reduce the boot time? Mine gets stuck on configuring networks for at least 2 minutes :(
[03:13] <brenner> Raovq: libqt3c102-mt that is
[03:13] <LjL> tedda: a desktop environment. it's something that gives you panels, taskbars, that sort of thing, and integration between (compliant) applications. the one you're currently using is probably not KDE but Gnome
[03:13] <brenner> shiv: there's a forum topic on that
[03:13] <Raovq> brenner, ive tried sudo apt-get -f install
[03:13] <Toma> tedda, its another desktop environment... if you installed ubuntu, youll be using gnome as the desktop environment. if you installed kubuntu, youll be using KDE. this way of installing skype will break all KDE apps. http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=77069&page=2#13
[03:13] <chuckyp> tedda, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UserDocumentation
[03:14] <brenner> Raovq: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OperaBrowser
[03:14] <LjL> Raovq: that's not what you should try. rather, you should simply try "sudo apt-get install libqt3c102-mt"
[03:14] <V4Vendetta> LjL~ that doesn't exist
[03:14] <V4Vendetta> LjL~ i've had that problem
[03:14] <tedda> i have installed ubunto so im useing gnome then ;)
[03:15] <brenner> Raovq: it's called libqt3-mt
[03:15] <Toma> shiv, initng, but the smarter thing to do would be to find out whats holding up networking, try running in recovery mode and see the output from when it stalls?
[03:15] <aroticoz> how can I copy files in the terminal ?
[03:15] <LjL> V4Vendetta, Raovq : you're right, it's my fault. i was doing that on SSH to my Debian, didn't notice
[03:15] <Toma> aroticoz, cp
[03:15] <aroticoz> thanks
[03:15] <Toma> ubotu, tell aroticoz about cli
[03:15] <LjL> V4Vendetta: ("doing that" i mean the apt-cache show)
[03:15] <aroticoz> ty
[03:15] <Toma> np :)
[03:15] <DanielSHaischt> hello, I am trying to dist-upgrade a debian system to dapper. unfortunatly at the time I am getting an arror in /var/lib/dpkg/info/initscripts.postinst ...
[03:16] <V4Vendetta> question, how do i setup email on a shell server
[03:16] <DanielSHaischt> line 'mount -n --move /var/run /tmp/.var.run' at the near end of the file fails with a permission denied
[03:16] <shiv> sure thanks but I am a newbie am do not know much of this. Let me try to play with it
[03:16] <Raovq> age libqt3c102-mt has no installation candidate
[03:16] <brenner> debian -> dapper?  is that even possible?
[03:16] <Raovq> same with libqt3-mt
[03:16] <V4Vendetta> is DALnet down?
[03:16] <devians> how do i find out where apt put a package?
[03:17] <LjL> Raovq: i suppose you downloaded the Ubuntu deb from www.opera.com?
[03:17] <chuckyp> THis is really annoying.
[03:17] <brenner> !info libqt3-mt

[03:17] <Raovq> ljl: i did
[03:17] <Raovq> was that wrong?
[03:17] <Toma> isnt the ubuntu deb from opera broken?
[03:17] <LjL> Raovq: no
[03:17] <LjL> Raovq: well, if toma is right, then yes, i suppose
[03:17] <chuckyp> Unable to remove an item from applications menu.  In applications menu editor if I right click delete is greyed out.
[03:17] <Toma> last i heard it was. try the debian package
[03:18] <sdghsgh> anybody here run mpich on ubuntu?
[03:18] <Raovq> the tar.gz one?
[03:18] <sdghsgh> the deb one
[03:18] <eletido> is there a preference I can change to make apt-get/Synaptic look in the repository instead of the Ubuntu cd for a package?
[03:18] <Toma> ahhh whats the URL Raovq ?
[03:18] <chuckyp> Any ideas?
[03:18] <Raovq> for opera?
[03:18] <brenner> chuckyp: what is it?
[03:18] <LjL> eletido: comment out the CD line in your /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:18] <Toma> eletido, yeh, remove it from your sources.list
[03:18] <oatis_> Has anyone got MySQLi to work with PHP5 on dapper?
[03:18] <Raovq> http://opera.com/download/
[03:19] <Toma> eletido, or uncheck it in synaptic
[03:19] <ufo> oatis, yes it works
[03:19] <eletido> ok, thanks guys.
[03:19] <McJerry> has there been a fix for eth0 ? when I reboot I have to ifdown eth0 then ifup eth0 to get internet working
[03:19] <jimcooncat> I installed vmware server. Now I have a patched kernel. Do you have some docs for dealing with apt-get and patched kernels?
[03:19] <oatis_> ufo, how come there is no php5-mysqli package available via apt?
[03:19] <Toma> !opera
[03:19] <ubotu> rumour has it, opera is not in the Ubuntu repositories, but you can always download the latest Opera .deb package from http://www.opera.com/download/ and then see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OperaBrowser
[03:19] <Raovq> i downloaded both packages, but i could only find instructions on how to install the .deb
[03:19] <chuckyp> brenner, What is what?  Oh its a package I removed via apt that didn't quite get rid of the launcher in applications menu.
[03:20] <slew> hi, is it possible to enable high-bit ascii in linux?
[03:20] <ufo> try that for sources.list http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9880
[03:20] <brenner> chuckyp: where is it located?
[03:20] <brenner> in the menu i mean
[03:21] <Anpheus> Hello
[03:21] <QbY> i need to access my Windows XP partition on my dual boot machine; can anyone point me to a doc that will show me how..
[03:21] <ufo> !ntfs
[03:21] <ubotu> it has been said that ntfs is the filesystem used in Windows 2000 and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[03:21] <redguy> !ntfs
[03:21] <brenner> ubotu: tell QbY about ntfs
[03:21] <redguy> hah
[03:21] <slew> hehe
[03:21] <sdghsgh> !mpich
[03:21] <ubotu> Syntax error in line 1. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, sdghsgh
[03:21] <Anpheus> I would like instructions as to utilizing my RT2500-based PCI Wireless Card
[03:21] <sdghsgh> :|
[03:22] <chuckyp> brenner, in the applications menu
[03:22] <McJerry> can someone help me resolve network eth0 resolving issue on reboot
[03:22] <McJerry> when I reboot i have to ifdown eth0 then ifup eth0 to reestablish internet connectivity
[03:22] <chuckyp> brenner, it added it directly under system tools. right inthe root of applications menu.
[03:24] <brenner> chuckyp: *nod* sorry, i don't know.  if you can't remove it, that means it needs to be done via apt.  afaik.
[03:24] <chuckyp> brenner, No its been removed via apt already.
[03:25] <chuckyp> brenner, I just need to remove the link in the applications menu is all.
[03:25] <engla> '/W 10
[03:25] <engla> duh
[03:25] <brenner> chuckyp: yeah, but you didn't create the link i assume. the apt install did.  therefore the apt remove should remove the link
[03:25] <oatis_> is it safe to use packages from dotdeb.org?
[03:25] <IdleOne> :)
[03:26] <ompaul> wb
[03:26] <IdleOne> thank you  ompaul  and sorry about that keyboard malfunction
[03:26] <Raovq> is there a way i can download the libqt3 packages?
[03:26] <bimberi> chuckyp: perhaps an 'apt-get remove --purge' would remove it
[03:26] <ompaul> np
[03:26] <brenner> IdleOne: was it your cat?
[03:26] <IdleOne> brenner>  was my baby girl
[03:26] <bimberi> close :P
[03:26] <IdleOne> brenner>  funny thing is we got 2 kittens today :)
[03:27] <chuckyp> bimberi, its removed already THe package is gone but the menu item is still there.  which links to nothing.
[03:27] <DaNeon> why i can't use su?
[03:27] <IdleOne> !tell DaNeon  about sudo
[03:27] <oatis_> Is it safe to use the dotdeb.org repository for Dapper?
[03:27] <DaNeon> thanks IdleOne
[03:27] <IdleOne> DaNeon>  no problem
[03:27] <ompaul> DaNeon, it is not the way that we do it in Ubuntu :-) try sudo you will like it
[03:28] <bimberi> chuckyp: yes, and i reckon that should remove the menu option too, but a --purge takes config files and the menu might have been considered a config file (in this case)
[03:28] <] [> whoo time to register
[03:28] <QbY> anyone know why everything i do i get, "can't .... read-only filesystem"
[03:28] <QbY> when its my hd?
[03:28] <IdleOne> QbY>  its a ntfs right
[03:28] <QbY> no no no..
[03:28] <DaNeon> IdleOne: i mean.. i need to use su for a shell script
[03:28] <] [> QbY: are you in single user mode?
[03:28] <QbY> under my ubuntu
[03:28] <DaNeon> i dopesn't work if i use sudo
[03:28] <QbY> not the ntfs i want to mount, but my regular..
[03:28] <QbY> ] [ -- I don't believe so..
[03:29] <] [> QbY: type "mount" and check if / is mounted ro or rw
[03:29] <QbY> ... /dev/hda3 on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro)
[03:29] <brenner> oatis: #ubuntu+1 for dapper discussion
[03:29] <oatis_> brenner, thanks
[03:29] <DaNeon> IdleOne:  i can't use sudo to run a shell script.. it ask me to use su
[03:30] <brenner> oatis: my guess is no.  you should astick to the official sources
[03:30] <IdleOne> DaNeon>  I dont know about shell scripts maybe someone else can help :/
[03:30] <] [> QbY: do this command: `touch ~/me`
[03:30] <DaNeon> ok IdleOne no problem
[03:30] <abunto> how do i add a program to the menu, i just added a program with apt-get but it is not on the games menu!
[03:30] <QbY> ] [ - touch: cannot touch `/home/kelvin/me': Read-only file system
[03:31] <vladuz976> does anybodyhere have experience using revtex with latex?
[03:31] <brenner> abunto: create your own entry
[03:31] <brenner> abunto: use the menu editor in apps>sys
[03:31] <abunto> thank you
[03:32] <] [> QbY: i think it mounted ro because there was an error on the file system
[03:32] <QbY> oh gawd what else can go wrong tonight
[03:32] <] [> QbY: you may have to log into single user mode and run fsck
[03:32] <DanielSHaischt> can I skip the install of a specific package with apt? for example if that particular package producess an error
[03:32] <xPatriot83> Hey, anyone here want to talk to a newbie for a sec?
[03:32] <ompaul> !anyone
[03:32] <] [> QbY: but don't take my word for it; i'm pretty now at linux
[03:32] <ubotu> probably 90% of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? <hint>
[03:33] <xPatriot83> I have some rather "stupid" questions regarding an Ubuntu install.
[03:33] <IdleOne> xPatriot83>  shoot in here and maybe we will all talk to you :)
[03:33] <xPatriot83> I just wanted to make sure I wasn't gonna get cursed out for being new at this.. lol
