[17:47] <Enselic> I have a .doc on an USB memory but when I open it in OO.org it says "readonly". When looking at the permissions it is obvious that it should not be RO. Anyone know the cause of this? I've googled and it says that it's a bug with Table of Content, but I don't have any ToC

[17:55] <stovicek> brohken: brightness_battery was what I was using to control the max brightness while on battery. Since Intrepid, they added brightness_dim_battery which I think is the amount of dimming. I hadn't seen that till you pointed it out to me and I looked at my Interpid box.

[17:58] <DasEi> Enselic:  ls -al /media/disk/Boken/2008.doc       says ?
[17:58] <Enselic> shiMMer: sudo iwlist scan
[17:58] <Flannel> shiMMer: What's wrong with the kismet that's in the repositories?
[17:58] <kibibyte> where can i see logs what happened when my system forzes?
[17:58] <kibibyte> frozes
[17:58] <kelvin911> Kingsy101: there is a switch thing in preference
[17:59] <Kingsy101> kelvin911 - well I have a eeepc 901 with ubuntu-eee on it, and I want to switch the layout back to a standard ubuntu look but I don't know how, its stuck on netbook remix
[17:59] <shiMMer> i need to put source
[17:59] <kelvin911> Kingsy101: switch desktop mode

[17:59] <kibibyte> where can i see logs what happened when my system forzes?
[17:59] <brohken> stovicek, i just set the brightness_battery to be 10 as a test and it still lets me go to 100%
[17:59] <Enselic> kibibyte: dmesg is the kernel log
[17:59] <kelvin911> Kingsy101: under preference
[17:59] <Flannel> shiMMer: Why do you need the source?
[17:59] <kelvin911> Kingsy101: do u have synaptic manager and session manager ??
[17:59] <Kingsy101> kelvin911 - it isnt there
[17:59] <Kingsy101> ermm 1 sec...
[17:59] <stovicek> brohken: while on battery, the power manager is going to raise and lower the brightness based on your activity. brightness_battery would be the max value while idle_brightness would be it's lowest. brightness_dim_battery might be like a step between. But you should be able to manually brighten when need be with your keyboard shorts.
[18:00] <kelvin911> anyone know how to run session manager in terminal?
[18:00] <shiMMer> need run kismet.i got an error to run kismet

[18:00] <wp_> dgarr: that worked fine :D ... hmmm... is it possible that chmod is very slow?
[18:00] <brohken> stovicek, gotcha... thanks
[18:00] <Flannel> shiMMer: Yes, the kismet in the repositories (sudo apt-get install kismet) should work.
[18:00] <shiMMer> i install kismet already

[19:15] <ronhalfdanr> Boohbah: the current problem is the latest updates changed the owner of the data drives to root and pretty much locked me out of tranferring data
[19:16] <ronhalfdanr> can read, can't write, can't move stuff
[19:16] <ErichV> Can anyone tell me how to get 1440x900 working in ubuntu 8.04?
[19:16] <ronhalfdanr> I've been having problem with updates randomly changing permissions on files and now it's pretty much locked up my data struture
[19:17] <ronhalfdanr> NTFS config tools causes a boot problem for root on boot but it will boot
[19:17] <allsystemsarego> ronhalfdanr, "sudo su - root" in a terminal, then manipulate the files using mc (Midnight Commander)
[19:17] <ronhalfdanr> allsystemsarego: would I have to do that every time?
[19:17] <djungelkraem> Is there a way to see what packages I have installed? Not packages that came with ubuntu
[19:18] <allsystemsarego> ronhalfdanr, until they fix the issue, that's if you file a bug report
[19:18] <allsystemsarego> djungelkraem, dpkg -l
[19:18] <axisys> is there a way i can play rosetta stone cd in ubuntu?
[19:18] <ronhalfdanr> not an option then allsystemsarego, the most basic funtion of an OS is always having problems caused my updates............might as well go back to XP that was stable for 5 years
[19:18] <tavish> hello. is this http://paste.ubuntu.com/92864/ /etc/network/interfaces file ok. i want to add 2 dns too.
[19:19] <allsystemsarego> ronhalfdanr, if you want stable, use Hardy Heron
[19:19] <allsystemsarego> ronhalfdanr, I'm on Hardy and don't have the issues you're describing
[19:19] <ronhalfdanr> allsystemsarego: XP was stable for 5 years one the initial install...........ubuntu has completely hosed my fielsystem within 3 months
[19:20] <kem0`2> hey, I have a trouble setting the tx-power of my alfa 500mW, i keep getting low signal however am 2 feet far away from the AP.
[19:20] <piti_> anyone know if ebox works properly in ubuntu 8.10?
[19:20] <ronhalfdanr> if I have to rebuild my software system it will be one I don't have to "fix" every week
[19:20] <bef0rd> heh, that worked, but I had to run nvidia-settings as root. should not it be run as root always? I mean like, the launcher should point to gksu nvidia-settings
[19:21] <allsystemsarego> ronhalfdanr, Hardy Heron is LTS (long term support) - from that point of view I would regard Ibex as experimental / unstable
[19:21] <ronhalfdanr> I don't use Adobe products because they mess with my filesystem, sure not going to keep using ubuntu if it's gonna cause similar problems
[19:22] <kem0`2> hey guys :) anybody here using Alfa 500mW wireless device ?:)
[19:22] <tavish> hello. is this http://paste.ubuntu.com/92864/ /etc/network/interfaces file ok. i want to add 2 dns too.
[19:23] <djungelkraem> allsystemallsystem that lists packages installed during the ubuntu-instal
[19:23] <kem0`2> damn, i feel ignored :/
[19:23] <allsystemsarego> ronhalfdanr, if you want Ubuntu but at the same need absolute dependability, then Hardy is the answer
[19:23] <Stanlin> kem0`2: yes
[19:23] <SomeGuy7337> what is the command to rename a file in the terminal?
[19:23] <piti_> mv
[19:24] <SomeGuy7337> thx
[19:24] <piti_> mv old new
[19:24] <basneder> hi, my pvr350 does not work, should i install a specific package? (besides ivtv)
[19:24] <kem0`2> Stanlin, I have a very low signal, however the AP is right next to me
[19:24] <allsystemsarego> djungelkraem, what list of packages do you need?
[19:24] <remite> SomeGuy7337: mv
[19:24] <kem0`2> I am using the right drivers Stanlin, r8187 installed perfectly, I think.
[19:24] <SomeGuy7337> thx
[19:25] <basneder> according to dmesg all is initialized, but i cannot get an image
[19:25] <basneder> reading from /dev/video0 seems to block
[19:25] <djungelkraem> allsystemsarego i need to see packages I HAVE installed :P
[19:25] <ronhalfdanr> allsystemsarego: and how much of the mail and other "small" data on my OS drive will be lost if I go back to Hardy and then of course I get to recreate my virtual machines
[19:25] <ryaxnb> join #ubuntu-offtopic
[19:25] <Stanlin> kem0`2: check the wire conection, the antena, if everything is properly fixed...
[19:26] <allsystemsarego> ronhalfdanr, make sure you have a backup of your home directory for when you start using Hardy
[19:27] <allsystemsarego> djungelkraem, the command I gave you does that
[19:27] <kem0`2> Stanlin, it works 100% fine on Vista
[19:27] <kem0`2> I think its something that depends on the TX-power, I iwpriv wlan0 highpower 1, and set the TX-power to 27, but still low signal
[19:28] <allsystemsarego> ronhalfdanr, the small items you are talking about are stored in hidden directories under /home/ronhalfdanr
[19:28] <Stanlin> kem0`2: yeah, call your manufacturer
[19:28] <squeee> Could anyone explain to me the difference between KDE and GNOME?
[19:28] <kem0`2> Stanlin, ha?
[19:29] <ronhalfdanr> so just copy that folder to something then recopy it after installing hardy?
[19:29] <Lexvegas> kem0`2, do you have a realtek 8187
[19:29] <kem0`2> Lexvegas, yes
[19:29] <Leon> squeee: They are different desktop envirmoents. Different default applications, different look, different philosophy. look at their websites to see wich one is right for you
[19:29] <Lexvegas> kem0`2, i have a similar problem, if i am not within 10-15 feet of the router, then i cant connect to the internet
[19:30] <allsystemsarego> squeee, http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-129036.html
[19:30] <kem0`2> Lexvegas, it took me so much time to correctly install the drivers, do u have r8187 installed, or rtl8187 ?
[19:30] <allsystemsarego> ronhalfdanr, yes, also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DowngradeHowto
[19:31] <djungelkraem> allsystemsarego: it shows alot of gnome packages too that came with gnome window-manager (installed during the ubuntu-installation)
[19:31] <Lexvegas> kem0`2, i could never get the windows drivers to work, so i just use the driver that comes with ibex
[19:31] <remite> squeee: it's like milk and milk
[19:31] <triggerhapp> anyone in Uk know places to order customisable PC's that mention linux compatibility? so far seen Dell Ubuntu and efficientpc, but wana know all my options :)
[19:31] <ronhalfdanr> hell with that allsystemsarego..............as much works as going back to XP
[19:32] <Lexvegas> kem0`2, currently my laptop is crashed, so i can't check to se what one it is
[19:32] <Lexvegas> i broke grub
[19:32] <ronhalfdanr> but I can get into the back door through media and change ownwers..........maybe...........should I change owner and group to my username?
[19:33] <kem0`2> Lexvegas, does it work fine on BT3 ?
[19:33] <allsystemsarego> djungelkraem, yes, but that's what you want, right? if it's on your system, you want it listed
[19:33] <Lexvegas> kem0`2, BT3?
[19:33] <kem0`2> backtraack 3
[19:34] <Lexvegas> kem0`2, no idea, it "worked" out of the box for me
[19:34] <djungelkraem> allsystemsarego: yeah kind of - but id rather want to see the packages IVE installed AFTER the ubuntu-installation
[19:34] <tet3> Merry christmas all!
[19:35] <zleap1> you should be able to generate a list of all installed packages
[19:35] <kem0`2> Lexvegas,  i donnu man, i feel that i wasted 60$, I cant get it work right, it works 100% on vista only
[19:35] <zleap1> kem0`2, what are you trying to do
[19:35] <tgpraveen> ppl pls help me
[19:35] <Lexvegas> kem0`2, it was atcually working pretty good on vista
[19:35] <allsystemsarego> djungelkraem, I see, hmmm, then you need to go back to the liveCD, run that command, then find the elta's between the files
[19:35] <kem0`2> zleap1, increase the signal issue with my Alfa 500mW
[19:35] <zleap1> ah
[19:35] <zleap1> thats a wifi device
[19:35] <zleap1> right
[19:36] <tet3> N00b question about Vista dual boot. Found a a great tutorial here: http://apcmag.com/how_to_dualboot_vista_with_linux_vista_installed_first.htm?page=4
[19:36] <tgpraveen> i installed a software by downoadiing the deb file. now i want to uninstall it how do i do so? it doesnt show up in synaptic?
[19:36] <kem0`2> yup, it is supposed to be the best wifi device today
[19:36] <djungelkraem> allsystemsarego: how would i get to the deltas?
[19:36] <allsystemsarego> ronhalfdanr, try that, and make sure your command is recursive
[19:36] <tgpraveen> pls help
[19:36] <zleap1> why woud you want to dual boot vista
[19:36] <tgpraveen> thx
[19:36] <tet3> But doesn't include creating a third partition if I want to share data between the two OSes.
[19:36] <zleap1> i would single boot linux on top of vista, and do away with vista
[19:36] <zleap1> but that aside
[19:36] <allsystemsarego> djungelkraem, there is a program called "meld" that shows you the deltas between 2 files
[19:37] <djungelkraem> allsystemsarego: cool thank you - ill look into that :)
[19:37] <tet3> Am N00b - need Vista for some work stuff, as well as security blanket.
[19:37] <crystal> anyone know why, after having just created a user, synaptic package manager isn't under the system menu in gnome?
[19:38] <zleap1> not sure
[19:38] <Lexvegas> crystal, on the new user?
[19:38] <crystal> Lexvegas, yup
[19:38] <zleap1> what priveledges are set for the new user,
[19:38] <tgpraveen> i installed a software by downoadiing the deb file. now i want to uninstall it how do i do so? it doesnt show up in synaptic?
[19:38] <tgpraveen> ??
[19:38] <crystal> oh.  Not in the wheel directory
[19:38] <zleap1> no point having synaptic, if you are not able to run it, given synaptic needs root
[19:38] <zleap1> or sudo
[19:38] <zleap1> i think
[19:38] <allsystemsarego> tgpraveen, dpkg -r <xyzpackage>
[19:38] <Lexvegas> crystal, zleap1 hit it on the head
[19:38] <ronhalfdanr> allsystemsarego: I'll try it first on a blank incremental backup drive
[19:39] <spydon> how do I play drm-crippled dvds in ubuntu?
[19:39] <tgpraveen> allsystemsarego: say i wanna uninstall openonfice 3
[19:39] <tgpraveen> what would xyz package be?
[19:39] <ronhalfdanr> should I click set UID, set GID and sticky?
[19:39] <crystal> anyone know how to create a launcher in gnome that asks for root password?
[19:39] <Lexvegas> crystal, you could give the new user administrator privliges
[19:39] <tet3> So in a dual boot scenario - can I mount the NTFS volume in Ubuntu so that I can share data files between OSes, or do I need a separate FAT32 partition for both to have R/W access?
[19:39] <crystal> Lexvegas, usermod -G wheel,crystal crystal?
[19:39] <spearone> hi, does ubuntu have a config file similar to arch's /etc/rc.conf? or some place where I can edit which daemons run?
[19:39] <allsystemsarego> tgpraveen, first run this command - dpkg -l | grep office
[19:40] <Lexvegas> crystal, i dont know about the command, i would do it graphically
[19:40] <tgpraveen> ok. thn
[19:40] <Lexvegas> crystal, SORRY
[19:40] <Lexvegas> excuse the caps lock
[19:40] <pte> resending from linux channel: hello. i've problem... i've accidentally overwriten first bytes of my external usb disk with cat mbr>/dev/sdd (but mbr was not the right file..). the disk is still mounted, can i somehow save it's FAT tables? (and /dev/sdd was not the right disk, sdf was :( )
[19:40] <itrebal> does anyone have experience running SPORE on ubuntu? I've updated WINE with wine's repository
[19:41] <itrebal> and its still complaining that it can't access the authentication server
[19:41] <spearone> hi, does ubuntu have a config file similar to arch's /etc/rc.conf? or some place where I can edit which daemons run?
[19:42] <allsystemsarego> spearone, that would be the /etc/init.d directory
[19:42] <spearone> thanks, allsystemsarego :)
[19:42] <allsystemsarego> spearone, and also System-Administration-Services
[19:43] <ronhalfdanr> what are the set UID, set GID and sticky options?
[19:43] <Juhaz> pte, how many bytes is "a few"?
[19:43] <spearone> allrighty thanks :D
[19:43] <paxsboy> Hello, channel. I'm having a little trouble with an external USB hard drive. It's fat32 and I can mount it fine as vfat, but once mounted no one but root can write to it, and even root can't seem to change perms on anything. How can I set perms on it so that anyone can write to it?
[19:43] <crystal> How do I give a user administrator access?
[19:43] <remite> crystal: try gksu
[19:43] <jtaji> crystal: adduser username admin
[19:44] <Juhaz> pte, err, "first", that is.
[19:44] <allsystemsarego> ronhalfdanr, http://www.mepis.org/node/11040
[19:44] <crystal> jtaji, how do i modify a user to have admin rights
[19:44] <ronhalfdanr> paxsboy: got a similar problem with my internal data drives, working on the fix now...........just need to know what a few options are before I try it on a spare drive
[19:44] <jtaji> crystal: that's what I just gave you
[19:45] <crystal> jtaji: that creates a user
[19:45] <tet3> So this suggests that I can mount the NTFS partition: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[19:45] <jtaji> crystal: nope not that form, it adds an existing user to an existing group
[19:45] <zleap1> admin - users and groups i think
[19:45] <crystal> jtaji: Usage: useradd [options] LOGIN
[19:46] <Godfather__> hi, mi hdmi output works fine with the video output, but no sound on the TV, just the video. under windows works fine. http://phpfi.com/391596
[19:46] <jtaji> crystal: ... man adduser, last usage in synopsis
[19:46] <tet3> Should I just have a single NTFS partition for Windows & shared data, and then a single Ubuntu partition for Ubuntu and Ubuntu-specific data?
[19:46] <jtaji> crystal: however you want to add the darn user to the group, it needs to be in the admin group
[19:47] <Lexvegas> crystal, jtaji is right
[19:47] <juro> hmm, is this such a hard question? I want to move my existing Ubuntu installation from one harddrive to a Raid1 paired harddrive setup. What is the best way to do this?
[19:47] <ronhalfdanr> allsystemsarego: sticky bit will probably not set since the only users are me and root and the advantage only look like it affects .exe..........it look slike MAYBE if I set UID/GID it will allow me to do what I want
[19:47] <paxsboy> ronhalfdanr: I'm going to try to reformat as fat16 and see if it works any better.
[19:47] <ronhalfdanr> FAT 16 sucks in ubuntu paxsboy
[19:47] <paxsboy> Huh.
[19:47] <crystal> jtaji, lexvegas, that's now how you add a user to a group ... usermod -G groups1,group2, user
[19:48] <crystal> -,
[19:48] <ronhalfdanr> of the windows filesystems NTFS works best across platforms
[19:48] <jtaji> crystal: actually usermod -G is dangerous because it overwrites current groups and you have to give the whole list.... unless you add the -a append option to usermod :p
[19:48] <jtaji> i.e. usermod -aG group user
[19:48] <crystal> jtaji, yes you're right but you're wrong about using useradd
[19:49] <spydon> Does anyone know how I play drm-crippled dvds in ubuntu?
[19:49] <jtaji> crystal: nope, did it many many times
[19:49] <Lexvegas> crystal, me too
[19:49] <crystal> k
[19:49] <crystal> later
[19:49] <allsystemsarego> ronhalfdanr, are those drives NTFS formatted?
[19:50] <ronhalfdanr> yes allsystemsarego
[19:50] <psp2000> hello... i'm looking for a (ridiculously simple) midi editor, to edit .mid files and use them as ringtones in my cellphone... any suggestions?
[19:50] <allsystemsarego> ronhalfdanr, then the sticky bit won't matter
[19:50] <allsystemsarego> spydon, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs
[19:50] <ronhalfdanr> being pure data drives I sometimes physically dismount them and use an external docking staion to transfer data with the laptop that's XP
[19:51] <tet3> noone with dual boot data partition advice today?
[19:51] <nbeebo> why does this happen? the program is amaya http://paste.ubuntu.com/92876/plain/
[19:51] <jtaji> Lexvegas: just noticed she thought I said useradd but I said adduser :p
[19:51] <ronhalfdanr> a braindead laptop at that since it only serves as the brain and memory for scanners
[19:51] <ronhalfdanr> allsystemsarego: should I try the UID/GID trick first then?
[19:52] <Lexvegas> jtaji, hmm, the plot thickens.
[19:52] <jtaji> Lexvegas: dyxlexia perhaps? :p
[19:52] <psp2000> hello.... i'm looking for a (ridiculously simple) midi editor, to edit .mid files and use them as ringtones in my cellphone... any suggestions?
[19:52] <skysurfer> merry christmas all
[19:53] <allsystemsarego> ronhalfdanr, first, can you pastebin the output of the "mount" command?
[19:53] <Lexvegas> jtaji, that fits.
[19:53] <ronhalfdanr> allsystemsarego: let me check
[19:53] <paxsboy> psp2000: http://letmegooglethatforyou.com/?q=simple+ubuntu+midi+editor
[19:54] <psp2000> paxsboy: thanks for nothing

[19:54] <psp2000> paxsboy: next time just shut up
[19:54] <endo2016> anyone familiar w/pulseaudio?  i'm getting the following error: W: ltdl-bind-now.c: Failed to find original dlopen loader.
[19:56] <ronhalfdanr> would that be sudo mount /media/drivename?
[19:56] <paxsboy> psp2000: If you still aren't getting what you need, you can click on the first result that returns.
[19:56] <paxsboy> On the page, "Rosegarden or Muse are your best bets. Both available in the normal repositories."
[19:56] <allsystemsarego> ronhalfdanr, no "sudo apt-get install pastebinit && mount | pastebinit"

[19:56] <skysurfer> hi all i have just installed ubuntu hardy on my daughters eeepc 900 because she was not impressed with the factory linux on it .now i have a problem in that i cant put amsn on it comes up as saying not enough space .any ideas ? it took me 3 hrs to configer the wireless drivers for it .
[19:56] <duda> tes
[19:56] <nbeebo> why does this happen? the program is amaya http://paste.ubuntu.com/92876/plain/
[19:56] <psp2000> paxsboy: i said SIMPLE midi editor
[19:56] <psp2000> paxsboy: if you don't have a recommendation, just shut the hell up

[19:59] <leal> and..
[19:59] <leal> no ubuntu developer here
[19:59] <leal> ?
[20:00] <mgolisch> leal: whats the problem?
[20:00] <leal> i did upgrade 7.10 to 8.04 and now cannot enable desktop effects.
[20:00] <leal> Xgl not present.
[20:00] <mgolisch> please open a terminal and execute compiz --replace & in it
[20:00] <mgolisch> and put all messages it outputs onto a nopaste service and paste the url to it here
[20:01] <leal> http://pastebin.com/m7faa8bb4
[20:01] <leal> mgolisch: :-)
[20:03] <mgolisch> leal: please nopaste the output of that too:  grep -i nvidia /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[20:04] <leal> mgolisch: http://pastebin.com/m6514a602
[20:04] <mgolisch> so thats the problem
[20:04] <mgolisch> xorg uses the nv driver instead of the nvidia one
[20:05] <mgolisch> thats why it doesnt work
[20:05] <leal> i did change to nv to try it, and see if the procedure to replace would work
[20:05] <leal> but i ws using the nvidia one...
[20:06] <leal> do you want i change it to nvidia? i think the problem will persist...
[20:06] <mgolisch> did you install the nvidia drivers manualy before the update?
[20:06] <leal> no, i did the update by the update-manager.
[20:06] <mgolisch> and after the update did you boot the current kernel? the old one might not work as it doesnt fit the installed nvidia driver version
[20:06] <leal> all the procedure was nice. without errors.
[20:07] <leal> i did remove all the nvidia drivers, and did use aptitude to install the new ones.
[20:07] <nbeebo> why does this come? http://paste.ubuntu.com/92876/plain/
[20:07] <mgolisch> id allways use the hardware driver thing
[20:07] <leal> nvidia-glx-new and nvidia-kernel-common
[20:08] <mgolisch> as it enables building of the kernelmodules on boot and stuff
[20:08] <mgolisch> just installing nvidia-glx-foo might not do the trick
[20:08] <leal> so, what do you recommend?
[20:09] <mgolisch> leal: start jockey-gtk and enable the driver that way
[20:09] <mgolisch> if that doenst work we will go through enabling the kernelmodule build and stuff manualy
[20:09] <mgolisch> @ leal

[20:28] <bonhoffer> before i was able to get my eeepc (1000h) to do a 1920x1200 resolution on my external monitor -- now my ubuntu resolution manager will only allow 1024/768 -- any thoughts?
[20:28] <thomasdelbeke> I still have trouble with grub
[20:28] <triggerhapp> white-sheep, Not the question I asked. Im specifically after pre-installed for the purpouses of knowing hardware is compatible
[20:29] <thomasdelbeke> in jaunty
[20:29] <xun> anyone knows where is the modprobe.conf file located in 8.10??
[20:29] <thomasdelbeke> I can:
[20:29] <Yahovah> bonhoffer, Try using a better computer.

[20:30] <biouser> how to tell if I am running prefork or worker in apache?
[20:30] <ezzieyguywuf> i have a script that uses sudo [command] that runs fine without a password due to my modified sudoers file. when i add it as a launcher on my panel though, it still wants the password. what gives? can anyone help?
[20:30] <ronhalfdanr> allsystemsarego: it just let me move data which it would not before, thanks
[20:30] <Yahovah> bonhoffer, Edit your xorg.conf file
[20:30] <allsystemsarego> ronhalfdanr, you're welcome
[20:30] <sdrfwetrwt> Hello. I have a wifi (without password) and I can't connect to it. I have internet on my windows xp but in ubuntu don't. What could be the problem?

[20:31] <dmhouse> Hi there. With the various cease and desist letters going to, e.g., the hymn project, is there any current way to play music downloaded through the iTunes' music store on Linux?
[20:31] <white-sheep> !dual-monitor > white-sheep
[20:31] <ronhalfdanr> now to get some work done..........;)
[20:31] <Yahovah> dmhouse, No.
[20:31] <bonhoffer> Yahovah, last time this just worked fine -- and i didn't need to edit any config files . . . any other thoughts?
[20:32] <dmhouse> Yahovah: apart from burning and ripping, I take it. Okay, thanks.
[20:32] <Yahovah> bonhoffer, Uh, yeah, actually. Man up and edit a config file. Seriously, it's not very hard. You can even use a cutesy editor like gedit.
[20:33] <ezzieyguywuf> i have a script that uses sudo [command] that runs fine without a password due to my modified sudoers file. when i add it as a launcher on my panel though, it still wants the password. what gives? can anyone help?
[20:33] <triggerhapp> cant wait for hardware to start advertising its compatibility with linux
[20:33] <bonhoffer> so i am trying via xrandr "xrandr --auto --output VGA-0 --mode 1920x1200 --output LVDS --off"

[20:35] <triggerhapp> Yes, but this is a stupidly long way around
[20:35] <triggerhapp> If I want a computer, I dont want to have to cross reference each machine with a list of compatible hardware :P
[20:35] <sdrfwetrwt> Hello. I have a wifi (without password) and I can't connect to it. I have internet on my windows xp but in ubuntu don't. What could be the problem?

[20:37] <triggerhapp> Flare183, fair enough... I'll keep my protection too thanks
[20:37] <nbeebo> how to make an example conky? i reckon theres a terminal command
[20:37] <Gnea> Flare183: you do know that vista can pick up on non-broadcasted SSID's, right?
[20:38] <Flare183> Gnea: hehe I found a way to "kick/kick and ban" people off of my router using my server. So I don't really have to worry about it

[20:39] <br0ken1> is this a help channel?

[20:40] <Flare183> !help | br0ken1
[20:40] <AshTray-> Flare183: Sorry, but that sounds a little gay :| Why don't you use a password or mac ?
[20:40] <Flare183> br0ken1: Read the topic
[20:40] <Gnea> Flare183: why kick when you can just keep them out to begin with?

[20:43] <Gnea> Flare183: i suggest you go read it again. now.
[20:43] <L0neWolf> allsystemsarego, I thought that too but I hit F11, it goes to fullscreen and then I hit it again and it returns to normal.  http://www.r4wr.co.uk/uploads/foxy.jpg that's how it looks, it isn't fullscreen
[20:43] <pulse_> there HAS to be one at least

[20:43] <Polyneux> Greetings, fresh install of 8.10 Server, trying to set it to a static IP with my router, first time I've done it before I just used DHCP, when trying to sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart I get postconf:fatal: open /etc/postfix/main.cf: No such file or directory O_o Maybe I set up /etc/network/interfaces wrong? O_o
[20:43] <Gnea> Flare183: I think it'll be alright... go drink some eggnog :)
[20:44] <|aspire|> is there any way to setup my software manager such that I do not install from the disk?
[20:44] <Flare183> Gnea: Yeah, thanks for catching that (no sarcasm intended)
[20:44] <pulse_> Polyneux: are you a relative to Molyneux ?
[20:44] <jopk> hi
[20:44] <AshTray-> Polyneux: Why did you mess around with the network config if you are usign DHCP ? The router assigns you and ip address and then remembers the mac address.
[20:44] <Flare183> !diskless | |aspire|  (This should help)
[20:44] <br0ken1> anyone have a suggestion for me. i could not get sshd to stop so i removed it, but now i can still ssh to that machine
[20:45] <Gnea> br0ken1: did you try killing the pid?
[20:45] <joaopinto> br0ken1, sudo /etc/init.d/sshd stop
[20:45] <pulse_> ok, I need to be away for a while, just flash me if some girls come around and needs help
[20:45] <Flare183> br0ken1: You can't unless you use telnet
[20:45] <Gnea> br0ken1: killall -9 sshd
[20:45] <Polyneux> AshTray-: I'm not trying to use DHCP, I meant to say I was using DHCP -before- and now I'm trying to put a static IP on it so it doesnt change every time something is restarted.
[20:45] <Flare183> pulse_: ot?
[20:45] <allsystemsarego> br0ken1, go to System-Aministration-Serices and disable ssh
[20:45] <br0ken1> i did joaopinto

[20:46] <jopk> I've problems connection a bluetooth device... the BT gui sais "pairing failed" and hidd --connect sais "can't get device information: host down". any ideas how to pair the decive?
[20:46] <pulse_> I never installed ubunto myself but Im sure Ill have interesting suggestions
[20:46] <Gnea> br0ken1: if anyone is connected via ssh, it's still going to show sshd running for that connection
[20:46] <Gnea> pulse_: running windows?
[20:46] <br0ken1> well i'm not connected, if i try to ssh there now, i still get the password prompt
[20:46] <br0ken1> and i thought that was only if a connection was made
[20:46] <L0neWolf> Anybody know why Firefox looks like this http://www.r4wr.co.uk/uploads/foxy.jpg (menu is missing, covers Gnome menubar) when it isn't fullscreen?
[20:46] <pulse_> Gnea: yeah, how did you know??
[20:46] <Flare183> br0ken1: Try telnet
[20:46] <Gnea> pulse_: you're better off installing it before trying to help - there are a lot of specialised things involved

[20:47] <br0ken1> ps -e  | grep -i ssh shows nothing

[20:48] <noone> wow... so fast.. :)
[20:48] <Flare183> br0ken1: Try that
[20:48] <br0ken1> nothing with either
[20:48] <L0neWolf> Flare183, I wish it was that simple.  It isn't, I can put it in fullscreen and then when I switch back to normal it is how it should be.  Never happened before yesterday
[20:48] <br0ken1> but when u ssh to a machine, u are only prompted for the password if the ssh connection is made right?

[20:48] <thejapanesegeek> I'm trying to recover some files off of a corrupted NTFS partition. Anyone have any experience with that?
[20:48] <dzup> ps <whatever> whithout the -
[20:49] <Flare183> L0neWolf: Broken Session maybe?
[20:49] <br0ken1> it says listening
[20:49] <L0neWolf> Flare183, I'm fairly new to Linux, care to explain what that is?  o_o
[20:49] <Gnea> thejapanesegeek: you should be able to install ntfsprogs and use that to uncorrupt it
[20:49] <Gnea> br0ken1: yeah, and it lists the PID with it
[20:49] <br0ken1> k so just kill it now?
[20:50] <Gnea> br0ken1: like that:   tcp        0      0 <IP_ADDRESS>:22              <IP_ADDRESS>:*               LISTEN      6658/sshd   <--- 6658 is the PID
[20:50] <br0ken1> hmm wtf.. no such PID
[20:50] <thejapanesegeek> Gnea: thanks
[20:50] <Flare183> L0neWolf: Firefox has a internal Default session, it might have gotten messed up some how.
[20:51] <br0ken1> k got it now
[20:51] <L0neWolf> Flare183, I thought it might be a corrupt file so I tried reinstalling using Synaptic just before I came in here with no luck.  Would that fix such an error?
[20:51] <br0ken1> mistyped a number lol

[20:59] <|aspire|> this is compared to another installation that I have

[20:59] <r|z0n> Hi there, I have an older laptop (Dell Inspiron 8100) that has a DVD player in it, and I have installed Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid on here, however it will not play any DVD's in Totem or VLC.. is there anything special which I need to do to get this laptop to play DVD's
[21:00] <|aspire|> allsystemsarego: yes I have that, but when I for example search telnet then I get four packet but only the client is available and not the server
[21:00] <allsystemsarego> r|z0n, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs
[21:00] <carpii> i have a Creative X-Fi soundcard which isnt supported, and also a primitive sound device on my keyboard which was working in the past. But now even this doesnt work. How can I begin troubleshooting it? I dont even know where to start :/
[21:01] <onetinsoldier> keres: although i've never used them, you'll probably want to take a look at and use one of these  -->  imagemagick, graphicsmagick, gimp
[21:01] <allsystemsarego> |aspire|, do you not get telnetd?
[21:01] <|aspire|> no, I dont unerstand ???
[21:01] <L0neWolf> Flare183, That got it, something must've been corrupt (odd!) so I moved profile info out, let it create a new one and copied back.  All working now, my thanks to you  :)

[21:03] <r|z0n> allsystemsarego, thanks, but now when I try to use Totem and I tell it to Play Disc, it just closes Totem.
[21:04] <allsystemsarego> r|z0n, run the command: dpkg -l | grep libdvd
[21:04] <allsystemsarego> r|z0n, what is the output?
[21:04] <Flare183> wp_: The user should say root, but the group should say plugdev

[21:06] <allsystemsarego> r|z0n, do you have ubuntu-restricted-extras on your system?
[21:06] <|aspire|> Gnea: this provides me with more options than the gui which does not make sense at all
[21:06] <r|z0n> i am not sure, will package manager tell me if its installed?
[21:07] <allsystemsarego> r|z0n, yes, look for it in synaptic
[21:07] <r|z0n> no its not installed
[21:07] <allsystemsarego> r|z0n, you need it

[21:07] <r|z0n> Says it conflicts with other installed software.
[21:07] <|aspire|> allsystemsarego: I dont think it makes a difference
[21:08] <r|z0n> i went to terminal and apt-get it
[21:08] <r|z0n> its currently downloading it
[21:08] <allsystemsarego> r|z0n, ok, do you have the package w32codecs?
[21:08] <bonhoffer> is there anyway to use the keyboard to scroll in a terminal window?
[21:09] <carandraug> bonhoffer: Shift+Page up
[21:09] <Gnea> |aspire|: i don't understand what you mean. there should be a list with a bunch of checkboxes next to them in the first tab
[21:09] <r|z0n> i dont think i do, i believe i need it as well, right?
[21:09] <bonhoffer> cool -- what is the default window manager in ubuntu? -- i just remember it is pronounced very differently than it is written

[21:10] <r|z0n> allsystemsarego, yes 32bit
[21:10] <|aspire|> Gnea: I dont get a proper list of the software
[21:10] <allsystemsarego> r|z0n, read instructions here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu
[21:10] <|aspire|> I have one OS installed and another in the vm
[21:10] <bonhoffer> Gnea, o.k. this is where i am confused -- isn't there something wrapped on top of gnome?
[21:10] <Gnea> lore20: you can't. you install it and then install the updates.
[21:10] <r|z0n> allsystemsarego, thanks will take a look

[21:11] <fratta> Hi

[21:13] <Gnea> if you don't know, then why not go for it?
[21:13] <donavan> bldninja:check you number lock ... if not that take all the power off the laptop ... battery too ... press the power button for about 30 secs put everthing back together that may fix it

[21:23] <Flare183> wp_: I give up
[21:23] <triggerhapp> sounds like trouble in my opinion :P Did you doo a dist upgrade?
[21:23] <Gnea> wp_: the filesystem probably doesn't support it
[21:23] <arezey> oh that has to be done first?
[21:23] <arezey> i thought it was first upgrade and then dist-upgrade, i'll try it the other way around.

[21:28] <TJ-42> I am using Ubuntu 8.10 32-bit with an Intel 4965agn wireless card.  I am experiencing difficulties connecting to a wireless connection -- while the connection works flawlessly on the same machine using Vista, ubuntu frequently fails to connect, or experiences really high packet loss (>60%) even as the connection reads 95-100% signal quality.  Any ideas what I could look at?
[21:28] <happihippo_> Hi
[21:28] <captain_> Gnea, GMote server for the G1 phone
[21:29] <wp_> Gnea: it were Flare183 idea to change the ownership....
[21:29] <Gnea> wp_: clearly, you cannot do that. why?
[21:29] <wp_> Gnea: my original problem "I try to mount my Sony mp3 disk using the instructions in http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5675777#post5675777 and everything went fine but... the "sudo chmod -R 777" command does not change the "property" of my sony mount as you can se here http://pastebin.com/d67d7579a so what am I doing wrong?"

[21:30] <rodolfo> guys, Firefox is over consuming my processor  when opening up any page...and that just keep happening after applying the newest online update, something related to libperl. what can it be???
[21:30] <Gnea> wp_: oh. what you're doing wrong is trying to change file permissions.
[21:30] <|aspire|> Gnea: how hard can it be
[21:31] <Gnea> |aspire|: firewall. sorry, use the website.
[21:31] <|aspire|> Gnea: what do you need a screen print fo
[21:31] <Gnea> |aspire|: if you've forgotten by now, then perhaps you don't need help.

[21:32] <Gnea> |aspire|: please don't make this worse.
[21:32] <soreau> |aspire|: When someone is trying to help you, you provide them with the information they request so they can diagnose your problem. By not doing that and instead cussing, you have one foot out the door
[21:32] <TJ-42> I'm experiencing serious wireless connection problems and packet loss in ubuntu 8.10, but don't experience this in windows.  What might be the problem, or what might be a solution?   But please rent me some of your precius time to teach me to catch some fish, so that I am not only full today but the rest of my life... hmm... What Do i need to do before I can use my Sony disk? because the page http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5675777#post5675777 told me to change the permitions
[21:35] <soreau> |aspire|: Or speedyshare.com or picpaste.com
[21:37] <Gnea> wp_: I can try, but I really don't understand the problem - it's an external disk: you plug it in, you copy files to/from it, you unplug it, and that's it. what's the problem?
[21:38] <Gnea> wp_: because nothing on that page tells me the reason that you're trying to change permissions on it, at all, whatsoever.
[21:38] <nbeebo> why does this come? http://paste.ubuntu.com/92876/plain/
[21:40] <Guest37477> How can I configure my controller? I found the kde control module, but it doesnt let me set anything. I want to be able to use it in a game
[21:40] <wp_> Gnea: ohhh... sry about that... Maybe it is because I have not used Ubuntu for more than ½ year yet, and that is the first distro I use.... but is it not very unhandy to use sudo to move music files (it is a mp3-player) unto the disk when (if you got chmod 777 on the disk) you are able to drag and drob the musik you want in nautilus??
[21:40]  * uber_noober ...

[21:41] <eax> Hi :) I just installed KDE on my Ubuntu 8.10 machine (to try it) but I find myself with a number of problems: 1) How do I change the amount of Virtual Desktop?  2) I made a "top bar" with a clock and some other widgets, is there a way to "move" them? For an example to the utmost left corner?
[21:41] <Blaze_Boy> Quetion: how to format my flash device on ubuntu?

[21:48] <itscodyxx> Secondly, I have a problem. I have Ubuntu Hardy Heron 8.04, and I needed to downgrade my libpango package. How would I do so?
[21:48] <Decepticon> Inspiron there is no delay in hostname resolution
[21:49] <Decepticon> Inspiron oh you mean the host im trying to log into (the slow login place) is trying to resolve my client address?
[21:49] <Inspiron> Decepticon, yes that is what I meant
[21:49] <soreau> itscodyxx: Why do you need to downgrade libpango?
[21:49] <Decepticon> Inspiron how do i turn off such resolution, at least for a specific range of ips
[21:49] <itscodyxx> To install Murrine SVT
[21:49] <itscodyxx> It needs a version of libpango 1.19 or lower.
[21:50] <Inspiron> Decepticon, you can try if that is the problem by adding your IP with any foobar hostname into /etc/hosts
[21:50] <Inspiron> at the server that is

Please help, I would like to use banshee if possible.  every time I try to sync one set of songs,,, even when saved as a .wav, they give me syncing errors
[22:54] <hateball> Melancholy⚘ With 8.10 live-cd you can create a USB-installer
[22:54] <MetaMorfoziS> they r hardy
[22:54] <MetaMorfoziS> but is it matters?
[22:54] <Melancholy> ocRob: it uses interned yes?
[22:55] <ocRob> Melancholy: no you have to d/l the iso
[22:55] <Melancholy> sounds like my solution
[22:55] <kitche> FAJALOU: I suggest run banshess from the terminal to see the exact error since syncing error does not mean a  whole lot really
[22:55] <FAJALOU> kitche:  i did and I don't see anything suspicious...
[22:55] <Melancholy> Does it support older ubuntus, like 7.04 - 7.10?
[22:55] <ocRob> Melancholy: its easy to use as well, yes it does, also many other linux distros
[22:55] <arbir> hello

[22:56] <arbir> how do i build a new /var/lib/dpkg/status file
[22:56] <Melancholy> Ah great! Darned 8.10 broke my graphics driver
[22:56] <hydester> does anybody know why the beta version of audacity is being downloaded via apt on hardy?
[22:56] <Melancholy> never fix something what works
[22:57] <PMantis> MetaMorfoziS: What version of Ubuntu do you have?
[22:57] <kitche> FAJALOU: hang on a sec have to install links
[22:57] <hydester> hardy.  8.04?
[22:58] <PMantis> Melancholy: Yeah, on my church's computer, too.
[22:58] <FAJALOU> kitche: ok??
[22:58] <Mic92> Ok i have found a programm.
[22:58] <MetaMorfoziS> PMantis > as i have said, both have hardy on it
[22:58] <MetaMorfoziS> But why it matters?
[22:58] <FAJALOU> kitche:  I think it might be a codec/copyright thing b/c other songs work... so it says
[22:58] <Melancholy> PMantis: intel 945?
[22:59] <hydester> Melancholy, 8.1 uses a new versino of X that is incompatible with some legacy graphic cards
