[08:32] <majd> k i think i know the answer to this....but is there an external hard drive that can be read under linux _AND_ windows/OSX?
[08:32] <paolob> Hi guys! When is dapper release scheduled?
[08:32] <Jimmey__> Hso, that's not a question..
[08:32] <Flannel> Hso: check your history.
[08:32] <hmpedersen> Is there a way to get a wlan card to work in breezy, when the drivers for it should be included in install but arent?
[08:32] <Flannel> paolob: June 1
[08:32] <Hso> Flannel, - too many links x_X it'll take HOURS!" >_<
[08:32] <Jimmey__> majd, you'd have to format it to fat32
[08:32] <paolob> Flannel, ok
[08:32] <Hso> Jimmey__, it's not? o.O
[08:32] <Flannel> Hso: history, then you can "sort by last visited"
[08:32] <AlinuxOS> hello, can someone help me with personilized fonts.config ?
[08:32] <majd> Jimmey__, and it'd be accessible in all three OS's?
[08:32] <Hso> Flannel,  - that will take HOURS! :P
[08:33] <Jimmey__> majd, I'm not sure about MacOSX, but Windows and Linux definitely.
[08:33] <Hso> i tend to load up alot of tabs at once X_X;
[08:33] <yggdrasil> !ping
[08:33] <AlinuxOS> I need right fonts.config for georgian fonts pack.
[08:33] <ubotu> pong
[08:33] <majd> Jimmey__, good news, thanks
[08:33] <Hso> I just want to know the right placed where I can ask "hey! I have this old machine.. it's not a pc, can I run linux on it?"
[08:33] <Flannel> Hso: no, since, presumably you're reading something close to the top, as it was the last you were reading.
[08:33] <Hso> who would I ask that question, to?
[08:33] <Jimmey__> Hso, God.
[08:33] <Jimmey__> Hso, but you can call me Jimmey :)
[08:33] <Hso> God doesn't like me _
[08:33] <SurfnKid> :)
[08:33] <Flannel> Hso: google.  But, the answer is 'yes', the question is 'how easily can I/what do I ave to do'/etc
[08:33] <Hso> as-if :P
[08:33] <allen> ok.. i set up my repositorys but got a lot of different stuff with xmms.. do i use apt-get install xmms or use this synaptic package manager somehow?
[08:34] <CAN_> hi
[08:34] <Hso> Flannel,  - any further ideas for that? :P
[08:34] <Bicchi> I have upgraded to dapper and I noticed that its does not have any window sounds. like on breezy i used to hear like drums when i clossed/open an application. is anyone experiencing this also.
[08:34] <LinuxJones> Linuturk, sorry was afk, install now and upgrade, it's only a couple of days
[08:34] <Flannel> allen: right.  either way, they're both the same, synaptic is a frontend to apt.  just the "xmms" package, then whatever other plugins you want.
[08:34] <Jimmey__> allen, Synaptic is basically a graphical version of apt-get; sudo apt-get install xmms should work.
[08:34] <Flannel> Hso: yeah, google it.
[08:34] <Hso> i'd obviously thinking it has to be something super small, like DSL.. or possibly smaller? I dunno the exact specs.. I know this, though.. http://www.amstrad.com/products/emailers/emp.html#
[08:34] <Hso> Flannel, - yes, but google what phrase? _
[08:34] <CAN_> i have ubuntu dapper and an ati 9250. X just crashes with ubuntu package and ati .run .. It says no module found ...or sometimes no screen
[08:34] <CAN_> any help?
[08:34] <Jimmey__> Hso, FreeBSD will run on 8MB.
[08:34] <allen> ok..kewl im more famialiar with running with terminal so im going that way
[08:35] <Hso> 8mb.. is that hdd or ram?
[08:35] <Jimmey__> RAM
[08:35] <Hso> what about hdd?
[08:35] <Hso> and possibly cpu? :P
[08:35] <Flannel> Hso: whatever the model number is, etc.  "technical specs" with it would be good for general information, "linux" and the name will get you exactly what you need, maybe 'install linux' plus it, etc.
[08:35] <Hso> x_X;
[08:35] <allen> ok seems to be working fine..im gonna hang out a bit just in case it goes south
[08:36] <Hso> needle in a haystack..
[08:36] <Flannel> Hso: take it to #ubuntu-offtopic  and no it's not.  You just are going to have to do some research.
[08:36] <Jimmey__> Hso, wait..
[08:36] <Hso> o.O
[08:36] <drew> wats a name for a gba emu package so I cn just use apt-get
[08:37] <Flannel> drew: you can use apt-cache search [terms]  to look for package names.
[08:37] <Jimmey__> drew, sudo apt-cache search gba
[08:37] <Jimmey__> Damn, Flannel's to quick for me
[08:37] <RobNyc> !pci
[08:37] <ubotu> Not a clue. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, RobNyc
[08:37] <RobNyc> !update-pci
[08:37] <ubotu> Syntax error in line 1. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, RobNyc
[08:38] <RobNyc> anyone knows the pci command i gotta do to update my stuff, so when i do /video with the sysinfo script my video card name shows up ?
[08:38] <Jimmey__> RobNyc, try lspci
[08:38] <yggdrasil> does anyone here know wich module to load for atheros wireless nic ?
[08:38] <RobNyc> Jimmey__: that just shows my hardware
[08:39] <drew> well
[08:39] <Hso> Jimmey__, what should I be waiting for?
[08:39] <Jimmey__> Hso, oh, yeah...
[08:39] <Jimmey__> I can't remember, either
[08:39] <Hso> >_<;;
[08:39] <Jimmey__> Something to do with John?
[08:39] <Hso> no..
[08:39] <Jimmey__> Oh
[08:39] <Hso> I already figured out that pw
[08:39] <Jimmey__> FreeBSD
[08:39] <Hso> probably :P
[08:39] <Jimmey__> Ehrm
[08:39] <Matixs> Hello, i have problem.When i try to install a ubuntu, i get error installation initrd fail. i have already ubuntu., but i format that partition, try to install ubuntu and get that error.Now GRUB write Error 15 : file not found. What i havee to do now?
[08:39] <Jimmey__> 8MB RAM, about the same HDD space ?
[08:40] <Hso> no idea, jim?
[08:40] <Flannel> Jimmey__, Hso, take it to #ubuntu-offtopic please.
[08:40] <Hso> k
[08:40] <Jimmey__> Actually, Hso, you could take it to #freebsd
[08:40] <majd> can i download an iso of dapper or is it not out yet?
[08:40] <Jimmey__> www.ubuntu.com/testing, majd
[08:41] <Abo> any one knows a good adress book in ubuntu?
[08:41] <Jimmey__> Abo, I'm sure Evolution has one - if not, check Synaptic
[08:41] <mnk> hello all - is there a difference between gnome ooo and just ooo?
[08:41] <majd> oh shnap....i didn't know that existed lol, i be searchin google for it
[08:41] <majd> thanks
[08:41] <mnk> i'm running ubuntu and i have ooo, ooo-gnome and ooo-gtk and ooo-gtk-gnome
[08:41] <Hso> k..
[08:41] <mnk> ooo= openoffice.org
[08:43] <Hso> The nickname [hso]  is already registered <-- annoying.. I'm 99% sure that I registered this username.. but it's not liking my pw >_<;;
[08:43] <Jimmey__> Hso, that's definitely off-topic chat
[08:43] <Hso>  heh
[08:43] <garrett> is there any way to save everything i've done on a live cd to a usbkey drive?
[08:44] <ciga> hi
[08:44] <Jimmey__> garrett, I'd save the /home/ubuntu directory to the drive
[08:44] <drew> anybody here a hacker
[08:44] <Jimmey__> drew, describe hacker
[08:44] <sindrum> lol
[08:44] <garrett> Jimmey__, will that also remember the packages i've installed and everything?
[08:44] <drew> being able to search someone eles computer
[08:44] <nutterpc> 0_o
[08:45] <Jimmey__> garrett, unfortunately not
[08:45] <sindrum> just get a p2p client
[08:45] <Jimmey__> drew, grow up
[08:45] <drew> I just want to hack a friend were having a friendly compation
[08:45] <Jimmey__> drew, I'm sure you are
[08:45] <drew> dude iM only 14
[08:45] <Jimmey__> I guessed
[08:45] <jdmpike1> yo
[08:45] <garrett> drew, take some networking classes
[08:45] <drew> I guess I could
[08:45] <nutterpc> CCNA at bare minimum
[08:45] <farous> i have a whole dir where all the files can not be accesed. looking at permission it say permission can not be determined? what might cause that and how to fix it?
[08:46] <drew> the only thing though If I learn s that he uses aol (they dont offer high spped in the part of town he lives)
[08:46] <garrett> drew, that's honestly the only real way to learn that stuff. theres no such subject as hacking, it's just malicious networking
[08:46] <tarun713> hi, I have a quick question: does anyone know of any desktop pci wireless cards that work out of the box with dapper?
[08:46] <drew> and aol isnt a real isp
[08:46] <garrett> Jimmey__, thanks
[08:46] <drew> oh
[08:46] <drew> well
[08:46] <jdmpike1> I just did the Dapper upgrade and hosed my xserver - does the 2.6.15-23 kernel not work with the latest nvidia-glx package for Dapper?
[08:46] <nutterpc> jdmpike1: it does
[08:46] <tarun713> jdmpike1, it does, rerun the x.org config script and it should work
[08:47] <nutterpc> I'm running the nvidia-glx-legacy and it works
[08:47] <drew> but I would rather learn linux first
[08:47] <farous> jdmpike1: the new upgrade had linux-restricted modules in them updated. if you did compile from source you need ot do it again
[08:47] <jdmpike1> tarun713, can you remind me how to re-run that script?
[08:47] <ciga> when I run glxgears I got a lot of error messages like '[fglrx]  API ERROR: could not register entrypoint for GenerateMipmapEXT'. I just did an upgrade in dapper.
[08:47] <drew> does anybody know how to compile from source
[08:47] <hmpedersen> here we go again.. "rt2500     driver present"
[08:47] <nutterpc> drew: its called gcc
[08:47] <jdmpike1> farous, I used linux restricted
[08:47] <Flannel> ciga: #ubuntu+1 for dapper stuff.
[08:47] <tarun713> jdmpike1, what I did was run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[08:47] <drew> what does gcc do
[08:48] <jdmpike1> tarun713, thanks I will give that a shot
[08:48] <Jimmey__> It's a compiler
[08:48] <nutterpc> compiles programs
[08:48] <drew> oh
[08:48] <nutterpc> :)
[08:48] <nutterpc> http://gcc.gnu.org
[08:48] <drew> I remember while installing java I made a fake .deb package but I dont remember the site
[08:48] <Flannel> drew: build-essential is the package you want, to get everything you need to build things
[08:48] <nutterpc> lol Jimmey__
[08:48] <mnk> i am trying to install the gnome preloader app for openoffice - but it is telling me that i have to uninstall ubuntu-desktop. is that right???
[08:49] <nutterpc> got about 30Gb of data to pull across the network............fun
[08:49] <Jimmey__> mnk, did you do a default install of Ubuntu?
[08:49] <nutterpc> -_-
[08:49] <mnk> yes  jimmey

[08:50] <mnk> OpenOffice.org QuickStarter applet for GNOME 2
[08:50] <mnk> i'm trying to install that

[08:52] <e0f> nutterpc, i try to install Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) AC'97 Audio Controller
[08:52] <nutterpc> ahh
[08:52] <dauoalagio> i need that e0f
[08:52] <mnk> jimmey - my ooo is like a million times slower than abiword. could it be that i'm using the wrong widget set or something? as i have both openoffice.org-gnome and openoffice.org-gtk installed
[08:52] <nutterpc> and whats it not doing?
[08:53] <Jimmey__> mnk, are you using Gnome?
[08:53] <lutra> mnk: ooo is just a big pig
[08:53] <lutra> mnk: abiword is much faster and lighter
[08:53] <dauoalagio> e0f can you install that driver?
[08:53] <intelikey> hmmm what's some good switches to add to  mke2fs  /dev/sda     ?  -c for checking...   what else ?
[08:53] <nutterpc> e0f: have you checked to make sure the driver is not already loaded?
[08:53] <e0f> dauoalagio, yep
[08:53] <mnk> jimmey - i'm using gnome
[08:53] <CAN> i installed everything i could to support ati drivers. Nothing X keeps crashing just with "No screen found" or EE fglrx driver not loaded .. or not found... modprobe fglrx won`t ever work.. any help plz?\
[08:53] <dauoalagio> where is the link?
[08:53] <e0f> nutterpc, i'm sure
[08:53] <nutterpc> e0f: have you run alsamixer?
[08:54] <mnk> jimmey - but i dunno - the menus don't *seem* gnome to me!
[08:54] <mnk> i.e in oo
[08:54] <e0f> nutterpc, yep
[08:54] <Jimmey__> mnk, weird :S You're not running it as root, or anything?
[08:54] <dauoalagio> e0f: how did you get that driver?
[08:54] <nutterpc> and what does it report?
[08:54] <Jimmey__> mnk, how much RAM do you have/
[08:55] <e0f> nutterpc, yep.
[08:55] <nutterpc> e0f: what does it say when you try to run alsamixer?
[08:55] <mnk> jimmey 512mb ram, and no i;m not running it as root
[08:55] <Jimmey__> mnk, very weird..
[08:55] <mnk> jimmey__ which part is weird to u?
[08:55] <e0f> nutterpc, the channel volume :)
[08:56] <Jimmey__> mnk, has it always done this? Or just recently?
[08:56] <nutterpc> CAN: I had that earlier dude, wonder if its similar to fix like mine was
[08:56] <nutterpc> e0f: double check to make sure the volume isn't muted
[08:56] <mnk> jimmey__ it has always done that
[08:56] <e0f> nutterpc, i check it.
[08:57] <nutterpc> Intel sound chips are all supported under the snd_ich driver
[08:57] <nutterpc> iirc
[08:57] <CAN> athlon-xp x just keeps crashing
[08:57] <walkover> hey everybody. Im trying to install nvidia drivers and the installer complains that it cant find my kernel source. I just installed dapper with a dist-upgrade. I dont know how to get the source. Can anyone help?
[08:57] <CAN> nutterpc:
[08:57] <nutterpc> CAN: what kernel version are you running
[08:57] <mnk> jimmey__ am i sposed to have both openoffice.org-gnome and openoffice.org-gtk installed if i;m only ruinning gnome?
[08:57] <CAN> a tried some of them
[08:57] <walkover> 2.6.12-9-386
[08:58] <CAN> that one
[08:58] <Andrea\> sera
[08:58] <Jimmey__> mnk, yeah
[08:58] <CAN> the k7 versinon..
[08:58] <mnk> hmm
[08:58] <CAN> till the dapper kernel
[08:58] <CAN> with dist-upgrade ..
[08:58] <CAN> right now..
[08:58] <mnk> jimmey__ so how do i know if it is using gnome widgets or gtk ones?
[08:58] <Krpano> can anyone tip me about my mouse problem ?
[08:58] <walkover> im sorry i dont understand
[08:58] <Jimmey__> gtk is the graphical API for widgets in Gnome
[08:59] <Jimmey__> I'm pretty sure
[08:59] <mnk> oh i c
[09:00] <intelikey> walkover may i sujest   apt-cache search linux-image  &&  apt-get install linux-image-2.6.15-23-386  or something like that then  apt-get the source also.    apt-cache search is your friend.
[09:00] <nutterpc> CAN: what I did to remedy mine was to completely drop out of the current kernel, to a backup one, modify the xorg.conf to point to the xorg nv driver (in your case would be ati), then reboot, choose the backup kernel, log back in, go to synaptic, find the nvidia drivers and completely get rid of it, then reboot, same procedure again, except reinstall the drivers for the card & update the kernel at the same time

[09:00] <Krpano> help !!!.....:)
[09:00] <SurfnKid> where should i install the realplayer? which path?
[09:01] <SurfnKid> /etc/bin?
[09:01] <SurfnKid> /usr/bin?
[09:01] <Jimmey__> Kprano, what's the problem
[09:01] <sindrum> anyone know of a flash developer kit for linux?
[09:01] <nutterpc> try that CAN, see if it works for you
[09:01] <Krpano> i changed my 57xmodmap, and my wheel has the functions of the side mouse buttons
[09:01] <sindrum> searched google couldnt find anything
[09:01] <dauoalagio> how do you install something using ndiswrapper?
[09:01] <Krpano> its like this xmodmap -e "pointer = 1 2 3 4 5 6 7"
[09:01] <Krpano> what would be the correct sequence ?
[09:02] <intelikey> walkover synaptic package manager is also an option for such things.    the kernel source is called  linux-source  iirc
[09:02] <rixxon> i have two file browsers up and want to copy some files between them, is there some easy way to have to different locations beside each other (either like total commander or like windows 'arrenge windows')?
[09:03] <intelikey> rixxon gentoo      or drag and drop from one file manager to the other...
[09:04] <Krpano> nobody has the side mouse buttons working ?
[09:04] <rixxon> intelikey: yea that works, but aint very efficent... oh well thanks
[09:04] <allen> any idea where apt-get downloads folders to...looking for the xmms skins folder
[09:04] <Jimmey__> Krpano, you'll have to do something special with xorg, I think
[09:04] <gnomefreak> allen: ~/.xmms
[09:04] <intelikey> rixxon some like gentoo   some dont
[09:04] <rixxon> heh
[09:04] <CAN> nutterpc: hope that will work.
[09:05] <intelikey> rixxon i'm not refering to a distro
[09:05] <nutterpc> CAN: it should :)
[09:05] <Krpano> i did it....it ok....but i dunno the correct buttons sequence....
[09:05] <intelikey> apt-cache search gentoo
[09:05] <jdmpike1> ok, after dapper upgrade - I can't load Nvidia kernel module...
[09:05] <Jimmey__> !dapper
[09:05] <ubotu> **** News Flash **** Dapper has its own channel #ubuntu+1 please join there for dapper (the beta of the next release) configuration, install,  or other conversation, dapper will be in #ubuntu starting 1st of june :-) But not until then

[09:06] <nutterpc> scroll up dude
[09:06] <nutterpc> ^^
[09:06] <green_earz> allen: use the commad :  dpkg -L xmms-skins   and it show you where xmms-skins   files are
[09:06] <Ademan_> what would cause this error (in KDevelop when i try and build) aclocal: configure.in: 8: macro `AM_PROG_LIBTOOL' not found in library
[09:07] <allen> gnomefreak...i cant seem to find it
[09:07] <oiuae> hi there. i'm looking for ultility that allows me for fast confersion of mp3 files from stereo to mono. Could you recommend me some program (the best would be command line app). pliiiiz ;)
[09:07] <Abo> how can I know where is the install directory of a software (say firefox or apache or anything in general)
[09:07] <Drasla> hey, I've a question regarding the mount command.  I'm trying to create a link of a directory (/example/folder) in a user's home directory (/home/ftpuser) so that a user can ftp in and access these other files.  a symbolic link won't work for security reasons, and you can't create hard links of folders.  I know this is possible with the mount command, but have no idea how to do it.
[09:07] <gnomefreak> allen: open home and than hit ctrl+h and it will show hidden files
[09:08] <gnomefreak> allen: there should be one that says .xmms open that and look gfor skins
[09:08] <Jimmey__> Drasla, maybe you could mount it on boot with fstab
[09:08] <Drasla> Jimmey__: I want to, but I don't know the syntax to do that.  what filesystem type would I indicate?
[09:08] <intelikey> Abo in linux there is NOT an install dirrectory.   it will have files in /etc /usr/bin /usr/share/docs /lib  and other dirs
[09:08] <yggdrasil> where does dapper list the modules to be loaded at boot ?
[09:08] <Jimmey__> Drasla, ext3?
[09:08] <yggdrasil> used to be etc/modules
[09:08] <allen> its got 0 items in the folder
[09:09] <gnomefreak> yggdrasil: ask in #ubuntu+1
[09:09] <gnomefreak> allen: did you run xmms yet?
[09:09] <oiuae> yggdrasil /etc/modules? i deep it is there
[09:09] <intelikey> Abo dpkg -L package <name>
[09:09] <drew> has anybody installed BoyCott advance
[09:09] <nutterpc> debfoster, such a lovely program for spring cleaning on your install :D
[09:09] <allen> yes it works fine...but there was no skins..so i apt-get skins
[09:09] <drew> I need help installing it
[09:09] <Drasla> Jimmey__: /example/folder is formatted with jfs, but when I try that, I get the message "/example/folder is not a block device"
[09:09] <yggdrasil> deep? hehr
[09:09] <Abo> intelikey, thanks, this one is good
[09:09] <PetrolBomb> can I apt-get themes for this gnomey?
[09:10] <PetrolBomb> Maybe
[09:10] <gnomefreak> allen: than i would use dpkg -L xmms-skins
[09:10] <intelikey> Abo apt-cache search <generic-name>   will reviel the package name
[09:10] <Jimmey__> PetrolBomb, www.gnome-look.org
[09:10] <PetrolBomb> AHh Jimmey to the rescue again
[09:10] <Abo> ok thanks
[09:11] <allen> ok...thanks guys
[09:11] <PetrolBomb> Jimmy,can I grab any of those or must it be a specific version?
[09:11] <Jimmey__> GTK 2+
[09:11] <hmpedersen> I'm still having no luck getting ubuntu online
[09:11] <intelikey> Abo may i also caution you about dirrectly manipulating files on the linux system.  things are kinda all tied to gather so to speak, it's easy to break things.
[09:12] <dauoalagio> what is the sound driver for ubuntu and how do i install it
[09:12] <Abo> intelikey, thank you, but if to configure some config files in firefox, or apache, I need to know where they are
[09:12] <PetrolBomb> http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=39703
[09:13] <PetrolBomb> I downloaded that one Jimmey
[09:13] <PetrolBomb> To desktop
[09:13] <PetrolBomb> Now what?
[09:13] <Jimmey__> Ehrm
[09:13] <Jimmey__> System>>Preferences>>Theme, drag and drop the file into that window
[09:13] <intelikey> Abo   man intro  &&  man man        the man(ual) pages are there to help with such things.    i.e. man apache2
[09:13] <PetrolBomb> ;)
[09:13] <Abo> intelikey, I need to know the location where I should put my html file so apache can show them ,
[09:14] <Abo> intelikey, ok I'll try man apache2
[09:14] <intelikey>  /var/www
[09:14] <intelikey> Abo  ^
[09:15] <h3h_timo> why does it say there is no installation candidate when i try to install azureus
[09:15] <allen> hey guys just to let you know..i fixed xmms
[09:15] <allen> https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/xmms/+bug/3208
[09:15] <allen> a bug..but it works great now
[09:15] <Jimmey__> h3h_timo, do you have the right repositories enabled?
[09:15] <allen> thanks for the help
[09:15] <h3h_timo> i dunno.. i think i do
[09:15] <h3h_timo> but i dunno if java is installed right
[09:16] <ompaul> !azureus
[09:16] <ubotu> rumour has it, azureus is a popular bittorent client written in Java, installation instructions can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AzureusHowTo
[09:16] <green_earz> dauoalagio: do you mean what is the sound drive for a card is ? if so open a terminal and then the to this link and do as it say. to find out the cards driver name >http://kmuto.jp/debian/hcl/
[09:16] <ompaul> h3h_timo, ^^ up a couple of lines
[09:16] <erik_m> Is Ubuntu suitable for using on a server? was wondering if anyone has done this and what they thought of it
[09:17] <h3h_timo> ompaul, i see that.. i know how to install it, as ive had it installed before i had to reboot mys istem
[09:17] <luminaire> sup
[09:17] <sidewinder_> espaol
[09:17] <ompaul> !es
[09:17] <sidewinder_> espaol
[09:17] <basvg> hmmm, I can't seem to log into my ubuntu destkop @home anymore. After I type in username/password I only get a blank splash screen... don't get the little panel that tells me which services are being loaded
[09:17] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[09:17] <alemur> does anyone have flash plugin experience?
[09:17] <luminaire> I need a radius client for linux. any suggestions?
[09:17] <basvg> I can log in on the console..
[09:17] <crimsun> alemur: what's the issue?
[09:17] <alemur> crimsun, I can see the flash, but I don't hear any sound
[09:18] <h3h_timo> ompaul, how do i check to see if i have java installed? i think i  installed it but im not sure
[09:18] <crimsun> alemur: are you using breezy or dapper?
[09:18] <alemur> crimsun, dapper.  It worked once, but now it does not, all other sound is fine.
[09:18] <ompaul> luminaire, have a look at "sudo apt-cache search radius" and find something that suits you
[09:18] <alemur> one does not need to sudo for apt-cache
[09:18] <alemur> er, apt-cache search, that is
[09:19] <ompaul> h3h_timo, check out the instructions the bot sent ya
[09:19] <green_earz> h3h_timo: http://www.v-workshops.com/java/   and see if you see any snow
[09:19] <SurfnKid> hey how can i create a directory in /usr/bin?
[09:19] <dmbt> mkdir /usr/bin/whatever
[09:19] <SurfnKid> k
[09:19] <basvg> there's not much interesting in ~/.xsession-errors... and /var/log/messages only has some stuff on gconf which I don't understand
[09:20] <ompaul> SurfnKid, put a sudo in front of that - but it should be be something you have to do - what are you trying to install ?
[09:20] <dmbt> youll probably want to be root when doing that
[09:20] <alemur> SurfnKid, you have to sudo for that, but it's not a good thing to do, in general.  It makes a mess :)
[09:20] <ompaul> !root
[09:20] <ubotu> Direct login as the root user is disabled in Ubuntu. Look at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo for all information.
[09:20] <PetrolBomb> Thanks Jimmey got the best themes now.
[09:21] <ompaul> dmbt, we don't say rot we give that factoid and let uses choose for themselves, it means that few if any use non sudo ways of doing things so we have some idea of what is the actual setup
[09:21] <ompaul> dmbt, (cos people break things ;-))
[09:21] <SurfnKid> alemur thanks i got it
[09:21] <dmbt> ompaul: sorry, i thought this was #linux
[09:21] <simonpca> plop
[09:21] <ompaul> :-)
[09:21] <SurfnKid> ompaul the real player, and i didnt know where to install the files so I just put them in /usr/bin/RealPlayer8 folder
[09:21] <SurfnKid> thanx dmbt that worked
[09:22] <dmbt> SurfnKid: thats not a very good spot to install it into
[09:22] <ompaul> !realplayer
[09:22] <ubotu> methinks realplayer is http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[09:22] <SurfnKid> ok, someone please tell me where should i install all default programs cuz i have no clue
[09:22] <ompaul> SurfnKid, that is how to do it ^^
[09:22] <SurfnKid> ah
[09:22] <SurfnKid> well i did install the realplayer from SPM but it said I had to download it from realplayer so i did. got the .bin file
[09:22] <ompaul> SurfnKid, that is not default, its a case by case basis, so just say what you actaully want and we will most likely have something for you
[09:23] <basvg> would it be better to ask this on #gnome?
[09:23] <SurfnKid> ok
[09:23] <h3h_timo> !frostwire
[09:23] <ubotu> [frostwire]  a free peer-to-peer application that runs on the Gnutella network. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FrostWireHowTo
[09:23] <ompaul> !tell h3h_timo about msgthebot
[09:23] <EmxBA> hi!
[09:23] <Guyzmo> hi
[09:23] <Guyzmo> I was wondering
[09:23] <topyli> what's wrong with the realplayer packages that are available?
[09:23] <Guyzmo> as ubuntu is based on debian
[09:23] <Guyzmo> is it possible to do an upgrade from debian to ubuntu ?
[09:24] <drew> hey does anybody know why limewire wont come back with search results
[09:24] <sindrum> it sucks...
[09:24] <drew> it says it hasnt connected to the server
[09:25] <drew> wat sux
[09:25] <sindrum> limewire
[09:25] <ompaul> Guyzmo, it would most likely be better not to, you could try if you were stable -1 on thursday to move to etch when we dapper crazy
[09:25] <drew> oh well I dont know anthor p2p clinet
[09:25] <sindrum> ohh...ok
[09:25] <SurfnKid> oh crap it installed, it works, it even put an icon in the applications menu. however the realplayer doesnt work, only the RealPlayer10 link. so i must remove tha
[09:25] <ompaul> Guyzmo, that was rubbish let me go again
[09:25] <drew> know one that uses java
[09:26] <drew> so I wont have to compile and all that crap
[09:26] <Guyzmo> uhuh
[09:26] <ompaul> SurfnKid, easy on the language we want a G rating
[09:26] <MorbidHunger> hey guys
[09:26] <drew> bacuase I cant get boycott or anything from source to install
[09:26] <SurfnKid> crap isnt allowed now?
[09:26] <Guyzmo> ompaul - didn't really understand what you said :)
[09:26] <drew> none of them have a ./configure
[09:26] <SurfnKid> sheesh ok
[09:27] <Ademan_> anyone here use kdevelop?
[09:27] <drew> how do I install from source?
[09:27] <ompaul> Guyzmo, if you are using etch I would not, if you have sarge or below then I would say maybe try to get to dapper on thursday or even now and track its last couple of days
[09:27] <EmxBA> no
[09:27] <EmxBA> drew:what
[09:27] <void^> drew: you read the readme
[09:27] <MorbidHunger> drew: extrat the tarball first
[09:27] <Guyzmo> well, I'm running etch :/
[09:27] <drew> yes but they dont tell u how to compile
[09:27] <void^> drew: read any other docs it comes with.
[09:27] <Guyzmo> ompaul - the thing I'm the most afraid of
[09:28] <basvg> hmmm ok, it's not X that's the problem. startx "works"
[09:28] <ompaul> Guyzmo, then I would not try to, remember its based on sid frozen over the last few months
[09:28] <MorbidHunger> drew: did u extract the tarball?
[09:28] <drew> well I just deleted the tarball
[09:28] <Guyzmo> is about breaking apt
[09:28] <Ademan_> in the console navigate to the directory you extracted to
[09:28] <Ademan_> and generally you can then ./configure
[09:28] <Ademan_> and then"make"
[09:28] <EmxBA> and make install
[09:28] <MorbidHunger> Ademan_: i had dibs this time
[09:28] <drew> well it dosent have a ./configure
[09:28] <Ademan_> hehe sorry
[09:28] <Guyzmo> ompaul - I know, and if I wanna switch that's because I'm tired of not having the last packages when coding on cvsed projects
[09:28] <EmxBA> or make install prefix= where do you want to install it
[09:28] <Ademan_> then there might be an install.sh
[09:28] <hmpedersen> I'm never going to be able to come online like this..
[09:28] <igorzolnikov> how can i install ruby?
[09:29] <Ademan_> synaptic...
[09:29] <MagicFab> hello - I am using a 2nd keyboard mapping (us + alt-intl variant) but would like to be able to make c cedil (french), much as the Windows "US - International" keyboard setup. How can I do this ? Here's what I have in my xorg.conf: http://pastebin.com/745376
[09:29] <Silencer> ppl can some1 tell me I goit ubuntu 5.10 and would like to update it to 6.06 Rc will I be able to update it later to final relese ?
[09:29] <ompaul> Guyzmo, back up the home and give it a shot with an install cd available
[09:29] <MorbidHunger> Silencer: Yes
[09:29] <tomas__> Hey everybody. Need one short info
[09:29] <intelikey> Silencer yup
[09:29] <drew> well maybe I dont know the configure script
[09:29] <drew> what do I type
[09:30] <richard> what kind of firewall does ubunto have?
[09:30] <intelikey> Silencer well that's the way it is 'supposed' to work
[09:30] <MorbidHunger> drew: ./configure
[09:30] <intelikey> richard iptables
[09:30] <wulax> richard: iptables
[09:30] <wulax> dam
[09:30] <drew> it says no file or directory
[09:30] <ompaul> richard, what kind do you want, all linux ones are iptables backends with some frontends
[09:30] <quix> khermans hey?!?!
[09:30] <letinum> Hi! I need help to compile my kernel! I don't know why but it say "You need gtk+-2.0, glib-2.0 and libglade-2.0." But It's installed! I try many many thing, nothing, everytime the same message! :( Someone can help me?
[09:30] <richard> how can i add a block list to it?
[09:30] <Guyzmo> well thanks
[09:30] <Guyzmo> I'll see what I'm gonna do
[09:30] <Silencer> ok thx for answers :) I will test it on my server ;P
[09:30] <wulax> richard: install firestarter
[09:31] <Silencer> can I see the packages of Ubuntu 6.06 ?
[09:31] <MorbidHunger> drew: make sure in the folder where u extracted the tarball
[09:31] <void^> letinum: use make menuconfig
[09:31] <tomas__> does enyone have that problem that while running the system, It suddenly stops doing everything, till I pres Alt. Then its working again for some time, and then stops again. Its annoying.
[09:31] <ompaul> Silencer,  http://packages.ubuntu.com/
[09:31] <Silencer> <3
[09:31] <intelikey> richard firestarter is a config for iptables   quicktables is a config for iptables  shorewall smothwall.....
[09:31] <letinum> void : menuconfig don't work, juste make config work :(
[09:31] <intelikey> smoothwall
[09:32] <hmpedersen> Well... I guess Ubuntu goes then. No use to me offline
[09:32] <drew> all there is a boyca.cfg file
[09:32] <void^> letinum: how does it not work?
[09:32] <drew> okay well thats not it
[09:32] <green_earz> richard: have a look at shorewall for your firewall setup http://www.shorewall.net/   shorewall can be installed with apt-get
[09:32] <drew> but the only config type file
[09:32] <EmxBA> intelikey : firestarter is for newcomers
[09:32] <intelikey> richard i like quicktables.  google should know where it's located
[09:32] <richard> firestarter .... or shorewell?
[09:32] <tomas__> it just stops, like you would press Pause
[09:32] <EmxBA> richard: shorewall
[09:32] <intelikey> EmxBA so is quicktables
[09:32] <letinum> this is the error : make[2] : *** [scripts/kconfig/lxdialog/checklist.o]  Erreur 1
[09:32] <letinum> make[1] : *** [menuconfig]  Erreur 2
[09:32] <letinum> make: *** [menuconfig]  Erreur 2
[09:32] <MorbidHunger> drew: are you in the right file?
[09:33] <EmxBA> intelikey: well, yes
[09:33] <drew> yes in the tarball's extracted folder
[09:33] <EmxBA> letinum: try automake
[09:33] <EmxBA> it will make right Makefiles
[09:33] <MorbidHunger> and u ran ./configure?
[09:33] <drew> yes
[09:33] <Silencer> eh
[09:33] <MorbidHunger> wats the output?
[09:33] <Silencer> 6.06 use kernel-2.4 ?
[09:33] <amphi> letinum: that is not the error
[09:33] <drew> no such file or directory
[09:33] <void^> letinum: that doesn't say anything. post it all on pastebin. perhaps you're just missing libncurses5-dev.
[09:33] <MorbidHunger> interesting
[09:33] <amphi> letinum: you have ncurses dev package installed?
[09:33] <intelikey> EmxBA i like the 'quickblock' that quicktables adds.    you can 'quickblock <IP_ADDRESS> '  and it's firewalled out.
[09:33] <Silencer> o 6.15 ;)
[09:33] <EmxBA> Silencer: 6.06 uses 2.6.15 kernel
[09:34] <drew> everything seems to be like this
[09:34] <letinum> EmxBA : How can I use automake?
[09:34] <MorbidHunger> do u see the configure file?
[09:34] <letinum> I'll check
[09:34] <EmxBA> intelikey: yes, that's why i like quickblock
[09:34] <drew> yea there is a boyca.cfg
[09:34] <amphi> letinum: the actual error is before the stuff you pasted
[09:34] <EmxBA> letinum: type automake
[09:34] <EmxBA> it will make right Makefile for compiling
[09:34] <MorbidHunger> there should jsut be something that says configure
[09:34] <void^> EmxBA: he's trying to compile a kernel. no automake.
[09:34] <drew> nope
[09:34] <MorbidHunger> it might just be a binary
[09:35] <letinum> Ok I install Libncurses5-dev ans I retry
[09:35] <richard> which version of shorewall should i go for?
[09:35] <amphi> EmxBA: he's configuring a kernel
[09:35] <drew> just 3 files and a doc folder
[09:35] <intelikey> why does ubunt installer freek when i refuse to add a user ?
[09:35] <EmxBA> amphi: oh, sorry
[09:35] <richard> Debian one?
[09:35] <EmxBA> intelikey: espresso?
[09:35] <amphi> EmxBA: no worries ;)
[09:35] <void^> intelikey: how is sudo supposed to work without a user?
[09:35] <MorbidHunger> yeah its a binary
[09:35] <drew> should I check the debian tarball to
[09:35] <basvg> hmmm let me try that again then: just created a *new* user on my breezy box. Tried to log in and right after gdm it stops. Just shows me a blue splash screen. Machine doesn't hang or anything. Does anyone have a suggestion what that could be?
[09:35] <Centaur5> What is the initrd image in /boot for and how was it created?
[09:35] <letinum> Yes :) very thanks menu config work!
[09:35] <hmpedersen> Nobody even noticed any of my questions at all?
[09:36] <amphi> letinum: cool
[09:36] <crimsun> Centaur5: in breezy or dapper?
[09:36] <intelikey> void^ i don't use sudo.
[09:36] <EmxBA> basvg: maybe you don't have right .gnome files or something similar
[09:36] <MorbidHunger> hmpedersen: nope
[09:36] <Centaur5> crimsun: Dapper
[09:36] <basvg> EmxBA: older users can't log in either
[09:36] <PetrolBomb> Anyone know where I can get good Beep Media PLayer skins from???
[09:36] <PetrolBomb> BMP
[09:36] <crimsun> Centaur5: I'll explain in #ubuntu+1
[09:36] <EmxBA> basvg: so who can login anyway
[09:36] <void^> intelikey: you'll probably have a hard time convincing the ubuntu installer to do it your way
[09:36] <basvg> EmxBA: I can put the .xsession-error online if htat's helpful
[09:36] <drew> why does it have to be soo hard
[09:37] <EmxBA> basvg: put it on pastebin
[09:37] <EmxBA> basvg: don't reboot
[09:37] <hmpedersen> Fine..  Ubuntu isn't worth much to me anymore.. With a ralink 2500 wlan card not working and nobody even trying to answer my questions for 7 hours
[09:37] <basvg> EmxBA: what is pastebin?
[09:37] <intelikey> void^ in fact i generally remove sudo.   and no the installer freeks but i know how to force it to do things my way.
[09:37] <MorbidHunger> drew: jsut run the binary
[09:37] <drew> how
[09:37] <EmxBA> basvg: go to paste.ubuntu-nl.org and post your xsession errors there
[09:37] <ompaul> !tell hmpedersen about ndiswrapper
[09:37] <EmxBA> and give me the ling
[09:37] <void^> intelikey: and the problem is..?
[09:37] <ompaul> hmpedersen, well I was here but not looking for 7 hours
[09:37] <intelikey> just wonder why it throws such a fit...
[09:37] <EmxBA> hmpedersen: what's the problem
[09:37] <ompaul> hmpedersen, read the message from the bot
[09:37] <MorbidHunger> if u type ls there should be a green file
[09:38] <drew> then
[09:38] <hmpedersen> ompaul: I've spent 7 hours trying to use ndiswrapper now. It doesn't work at all and everyone has been ignoring me both here and in #ndiswrapper for the past 7 hours!
[09:38] <MorbidHunger> run ./greenfile
[09:38] <hmpedersen> ralink 2500 drivers are even in the breezy install.. But they don't work!
[09:38] <intelikey> void^ my question was "why does..."  nothing more.
[09:38] <void^> intelikey: because it's ubuntu policy/design
[09:39] <drew> it says run command not found
[09:39] <EmxBA> hmpedersen: sorry, could you explain me what's ralink
[09:39] <EmxBA> device
[09:39] <MorbidHunger> interesting
[09:39] <intelikey> k
[09:39] <MorbidHunger> what did u download?
[09:39] <basvg> rats! a reboot fixed it. My splash screen is completely messed up and some settings are gone but.. it's fixed!
[09:39] <basvg> amazing
[09:39] <beerockxs> I'm having a problem recording audio with my ew microphone, using a CMI8738 card. Microphone is unmuted in the mixer, Mic as LFE/Center is disabled, and still i get no sound when trying to record.
[09:39] <drew> sooo
[09:40] <intelikey> does debian installer freek out on things like that void^ ?
[09:40] <drew> do I have to be in su
[09:40] <EmxBA> basvg: great
[09:40] <MorbidHunger> should be
[09:40] <MorbidHunger> what did u download?
[09:40] <ompaul> hmpedersen, well if I am not looking at the screen or no one has and answer for you - then maybe it is not known, wrt ndiswrapper, I would say to you assume you have never done it before and take yourself though it one more time, you can also look a http://help.ubuntu.com/ for networking and there is a http://help.ubuntu.com/6.06/ubuntu/ for dapper
[09:40] <drew> okay Im in su
[09:40] <basvg> well, dunno what fixed it but thanks anyway guys
[09:40] <drew> but it still says run command not found
[09:40] <MorbidHunger> thats so gay
[09:40] <ompaul> !gay
[09:40] <drew> nm
[09:41] <igorzolnikov> Hi! I am developer. I like Ubuntu 6.06.     Who can tell why?
[09:41] <EmxBA> igotzolnikov: see ubuntu.com for more information
[09:41] <oden_> i say halo
[09:41] <MorbidHunger> just ./filename
[09:41] <MorbidHunger> igorzolnikov : buy us all beer
[09:41] <void^> intelikey: no, debian is a different distro and does things differently. (ie., not aimed at endusers)
[09:41] <ompaul> igorzolnikov, join #ubuntu-motu for some ideas
[09:42] <intelikey> drew if you want a 'run' type command, it is  exec
[09:42] <ompaul> igorzolnikov, or join #ubuntu-bugs
[09:42] <PetrolBomb> WHere to find skins for Beep Media Player???
[09:42] <redguy> igorzolnikov: http://www.ubuntu.com/community/participate
[09:42] <intelikey> void^ you make me want debian so much more.................
[09:42] <drew> i found out how to run it
[09:42] <MorbidHunger> PetrolBomb: google
[09:42] <EmxBA> igorzolnikov: you can help  us, firstly by shipping lots of ubuntu's to your country
[09:42] <nahoj> hmm.. second time gnome freezes today...
[09:42] <nahoj> =/
[09:42] <skippy_> i might install debian
[09:42] <hmpedersen> ompaul, the problem is. I have a wlan card which is perfectly linux compatible.. It pains me, as a tech. to spend 8 hours straight getting nowhere, because it refuse to work with the linux distro i untill now has seens as the best
[09:43] <HP_Owner> hi, what file system does linux run on?
[09:43] <skippy_> hmpedersen what type of card is it
[09:43] <EmxBA> hmpedersen: which card
[09:43] <oden_> you are dubm
[09:43] <skippy_> HP_Owner ext3 is the most common
[09:43] <hmpedersen> I've never spent more than 20 minutes getting something to work with ndiswrapper before.. 8 hours is way more than I can use
[09:43] <ompaul> oden_, be nice ...
[09:43] <oden_> i mean dumb
[09:43] <MorbidHunger> HP_Owner: ext3 by defualy
[09:43] <HP_Owner> thanks
[09:43] <EmxBA> hmpedersen: just put it in and try iwconfig <device>, mostly eth1
[09:43] <hmpedersen> Zonet ZEW1601
[09:43] <skippy_> but XFS JFS EXT2 and ReiserFS are possible alternatives HP_Owner
[09:43] <oden_> soory guyz
[09:44] <skippy_> i use XFS, but i cant honestly say ive noticed a difference
[09:44] <canavaro5> ciao
[09:44] <ompaul> !it
[09:44] <ubotu> Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese.  Especially when all I have on the list is eth0, lo and sit0
[09:44] <PetrolBomb> Ahhh figured it out,you can use WInamp skins with BMP Player!
[09:44] <PetrolBomb> Just drag n drop
[09:44] <drew> how do I set my other partition so I can write to it
[09:44] <drew> it says ur not owner so u cannot make changes
[09:44] <skippy_> yes PetrolBomb, same with xmms
[09:44] <skippy_> a very nice touch
[09:44] <intelikey> !tell drew about ntfs
[09:44] <skippy_> :)
[09:44] <PetrolBomb> Yay skippy\!
[09:44] <hmpedersen> drew, what filesystem is the partition?
[09:44] <skippy_> hello again lol
[09:45] <MorbidHunger> PetrolBomb: thats scary
[09:45] <EmxBA> hmpedersen: but i have PCMCIA slot (notebook) and it is eth1 , usually it is eth1
[09:45] <drew> fat32
[09:45] <richard> Is there a program to monitor internet traffic - something like DU meter on windows?
[09:45] <drew> I made sure it was so both windows and linux can write to it
[09:45] <EmxBA> or try http://forum.nubuntu.org/index.php?showtopic=42
[09:45] <skippy_> richard, ethereal is a sniffer
[09:45] <PetrolBomb> KNET load network monitor
[09:45] <intelikey> drew same umask dmask fmask rules apply
[09:45] <drew> how can I make it so I can  write to it
[09:45] <dmbt> ethereal is *really* good
[09:45] <skippy_> yeah i love ethereal
[09:46] <hmpedersen> drew, you can't
[09:46] <skippy_> raw sockets on linux kick ass
[09:46] <drew> intel I dont understand I just started yesterday
[09:46] <EmxBA> dmbt: i like ethereal too, so good
[09:46] <ompaul> richard, bwbar is ont thing
[09:46] <ompaul> richard, bwbar is one thing
[09:46] <EmxBA> hmpedersen: try http://forum.linspire.com/viewtopic.php?t=422366&
[09:46] <EmxBA> also
[09:46] <ompaul> !language
[09:46] <ubotu> Please watch your language. We try to be nice and help but some of us don't like to see such things on our screen.
[09:46] <skippy_> my little brother learnt a lot about the internet from etherape, its a good learning tool
[09:46] <intelikey> drew mount is with  umask=0  if you like permiscues file systems.
[09:47] <drew> so how do I make it writeable
[09:47] <green_earz> intelikey: ubuntu is based on debian. ubuntu get its main packages from debian unstable. for video of ubuntu and debian relationship check out mark shuttleworth talk at debconf5 >http://meetings-archive.debian.net/pub/debian-meetings/2005/debconf5/mpeg/2005-07-14/02-Ubuntu_Talk-Mark_Shuttleworth.mpeg
[09:47] <Illnor> hello: i'm in ubuntu.. trying to print a website in Opera browser.. does not recognize my printer even though it is installed
[09:47] <drew> or better yet how do I become owner
[09:47] <EmxBA> Illnor: really installed, configured and *really* works?
[09:47] <hmpedersen> EmxBA.. Yeah.. There you have the exact problem..
[09:47] <ompaul> drew, it is more than likely the way you are doing things that will cause you grief, you don't need to be root - use sudo
[09:48] <Illnor> EmxBA: obviously not :)
[09:48] <intelikey> drew   do a  grep -ie 'vfat' /etc/fstab    and let me see the  "one" line it gives,  i'll ammend it so you have full access.
[09:48] <EmxBA> hmpedersen: so try to solve it , you have that problem, not me
[09:48] <g-nome> how can i change priorities of processes?
[09:48] <intelikey> green_earz nice.
[09:48] <hmpedersen> Doesn't install with the correct driver.. Doesn't work with the driver that recognizes it
[09:48] <EmxBA> Illnor: hm....
[09:48] <green_earz> np
[09:48] <Illnor> System->Administration->printing with gdi driver setup is all i did
[09:48] <EmxBA> Illnot: what's your printer
[09:48] <amphi> g-nome: top is an easy way
[09:48] <Illnor> SAMSUNG ML-1710
[09:48] <amphi> g-nome: or renice
[09:48] <g-nome> how to change the priority there, amphi?
[09:48] <poimen> what file in /home/~/ is the one that tells X what windows maneger to load?
[09:49] <tanek> my external USB hard disk wont show up, any suggestions? :P
[09:49] <amphi> poimen: ~/.xsession
[09:49] <Illnor> closing and opening opera didn't do anything
[09:49] <drew> i typed it in
[09:49] <hmpedersen> The thing is, EmxBA, it just so happens, the drivers for this card according to devs are in the breezy badger.. Ralink 2500 chipset drivers..
[09:49] <g-nome> amphi, what does it do exactly, "reniced" that is?
[09:49] <intelikey> drew and ?
[09:49] <poimen> I just add startkde right?
[09:49] <poimen> or gnome-session?
[09:49] <EmxBA> hmpedersen: are they loaded at boot
[09:50] <Flannel> poimen: and, it's just ~/ for your home directory.
[09:50] <EmxBA> Illnor: try this http://www.linuxquestions.org/hcl/showproduct.php/product/1746
[09:50] <skippy_> hmpedersen i assume you have modprobed the driver and had no luck?
[09:50] <intelikey> hehhe drew put /say  in front of it
[09:50] <drew> and it gave me a line that says "/dev/hda5    /media/hda5    vfat   defualts    0     0"
[09:50] <intelikey> k
[09:50] <DylanPierce> Can anyone here get me broadcasting to a streaming Internet radio station on a Shoutcast server? (That is, the server is already there, somewhere else, I just need to broadcast to it.)
[09:50] <EmxBA> you must setup your printer first
[09:50] <drew> k
[09:50] <drew> Ill so it with say
[09:50] <amphi> g-nome: man renice will give you some info; do you understand how nice values work?
[09:50] <EmxBA> Illnor: or this http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Samsung-ML-1710
[09:50] <skippy_> hmpedersen type "sudo modprobe rt2500" in a terminal
[09:51] <drew> it says /sat no such file of directory
[09:51] <skippy_> then "ifconfig" and "iwconfig" and see if anything shows up
[09:51] <dyla1> hi to all
[09:51] <hmpedersen> skippy, i'm gonna boot into ubuntu again now to do that
[09:51] <hmpedersen> again..
[09:51] <skippy_> ok hmpedersen try it
[09:51] <pianoboy3333> When do the edgy repositories open?
[09:51] <skippy_> the modprobe will force the driver to be inserted if its compatable
[09:51] <EmxBA> dyla1: hi!
[09:52] <Flannel> pianoboy3333: not until dapper is released, at least.
[09:52] <g-nome> amphi: not really
[09:52] <dyla1> anyone have had any problems with the nvidia-glx drivers ? if i enable them, my laptop freeze on loading xserver
[09:52] <] GoldenDragon> hmm.. should I get easyubuntu, or automatix?
[09:52] <Illnor> EmxBA: Is all of that necessary if I can print in other programs? Printing works fine in firefox, I just want to get Opera to print, because Opera > Firefox at printing IMHO
[09:52] <Flannel> ] GoldenDragon: easyubuntu.
[09:52] <hmpedersen> It'll take a few minutes as the 64-bit ubuntu hangs for 2 minutes at "Loading, please wait..."
[09:52] <] GoldenDragon> why not automatix?
[09:52] <intelikey> drew change that line to this ""/dev/hda5    /media/hda5    vfat   defaults,uid=1000,dmask=022,fmask=133    0     0"
[09:52] <Flannel> !automatix
[09:52] <ubotu> well, automatix is unsafe, it overwrites configuration files, and does things like "echo -e 'y\nY\n'" that are considered risky. Please do not use it. There are alternative applications, such as !easyubuntu.
[09:52] <Flannel> that's why.
[09:52] <g-nome> amphi, but how can i change priorities in terminal?
[09:52] <amphi> g-nome: the higher the nice value, the lower the priority (ie. the program is 'nicer' to others)
[09:52] <] GoldenDragon> aight.
[09:52] <EmxBA> Illnor: oh, but you said that you haven't setup your printer
[09:52] <intelikey> drew use sudo gedit /etc/fstab
[09:52] <EmxBA> if you have made it work
[09:52] <skippy_> hmpenderson, you should type "dmesg" at a terminal and see what it is thats causing the delay
[09:52] <EmxBA> then you just have to configure it in firefox
[09:53] <amphi> g-nome: -19 is highest priority, 19 is the lowest
[09:53] <intelikey> or gksudo gedit /etc/fstab    if you like
[09:53] <Illnor> EmxBA: Why would I configure it in Firefox? It's Opera I want to be able to print in
[09:53] <amphi> g-nome: non-root users cannot decrease the nice value (increase the priority) of a process
[09:53] <DylanPierce> Nobody here knows anything about Internet streaming radio?
[09:53] <stefan> Hello
[09:53] <] GoldenDragon> !easyubuntu
[09:53] <EmxBA> Illnor: oh sorry, i meant *Opera*
[09:53] <ubotu> hmm... 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/.
[09:53] <drew> woah it gave me alot of stuff
[09:54] <hmpedersen> EmxBA: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/RalinkRT2500?highlight=%28WifiDocs%29%7C%28ManufacturerModel%29%7C%28AND%29
[09:54] <Illnor> EmxBA: I'm sorry I'm confusing you so much :) The printer is not available in opera.. not even an option. just no printers there. I didn't know if there was some esoteric setting needed
[09:54] <amphi> g-nome: top is a fullscreen textmode prog that you can renice a process with
[09:54] <drew> which line do u want
[09:55] <EmxBA> Illnor: :D then just use better browser
[09:55] <EmxBA> for example, Firefox :D
[09:55] <DylanPierce> Okay, I'm afraid it's going to be back to Windows for me. Sorry, guys. I tried, but if the apps aren't out there, they just aren't out there.
[09:55] <drew> /dev/hda5       /media/hda5     vfat    defaults
[09:55] <skippy_> what apps do you want?
[09:55] <drew> thats the line of the partition I want to write
[09:55] <sindrum> flash
[09:55] <intelikey> drew use sudo gedit /etc/fstab    and  drew change that line to this ""/dev/hda5    /media/hda5    vfat    defaults,uid=1000,dmask=022,fmask=133    0     0"   <---- in that file.... save and exit.    then issue this command      sudo umount /media/hda5 && sudo mount /media/hda5
[09:55] <amphi> Illnor: or w3m ;)
[09:55] <Illnor> EmxBA: Have you tried printing in Firefox vs. Opera? Opera automatically shrinks or deletes advertisements for you, and automatically formats it so it looks nice.. Firefox prints very sloppily, printing the code for ads and such
[09:55] <DylanPierce> skippy_ I need to broadcast to a shoutcast internet streaming radio station.
[09:55] <skippy_> DylanPierce open synaptic and search for keywords
[09:56] <EmxBA> EmxBA: no, i don't have printer :D
[09:56] <pianoboy3333> Flannel: I just wanna screw my system up so bad... nah, I bought a test hard drive really
[09:56] <hmpedersen> skippy: Nuffin
[09:56] <DylanPierce> skippy_ I have, installed several things which seemed promising, but nothing does what I need.
[09:56] <Illnor> amphi: w3m is another browser I should try?
[09:56] <amphi> Illnor: console mode browser - no ads ever ;)
[09:56] <skippy_> whats the windows program you use Dylan?
[09:56] <DylanPierce> skippy_ SAM3 Broadcaster.
[09:56] <tdn> Will the new Ubuntu release support wireless networking with WPA?
[09:57] <intelikey> drew alternatively one could  just add    umask=0  to the line..... but that's sloppy.   hehhe vfat is sloppy tho
[09:57] <igorzolnikov> How can i install Opera 9 beta 2?
[09:57] <igorzolnikov> for Ubuntu 6.06
[09:57] <EmxBA> Illnor: try lynx :D or  links
[09:57] <intelikey> links2 -g
[09:58] <Illnor> igorzolnikov: are you on i386 or 64 bit?
[09:58] <Flannel> igorzolnikov: #ubuntu+1 for dapper questions, until the 1st.
[09:58] <alemur> freebsd uber alles, uber alles freebsd!
[09:58] <g-nome> amphi thanks
[09:58] <fourat> i have to run alsaconf to setup my soundcard on each reboot, why it doesnt save the conf and get it working at reboot
[09:58] <igorzolnikov> i386
[09:58] <EmxBA> fourat: it should, indeeed
[09:58] <Illnor> opera is easy on i386.. ok then.. well.. you want to upgrade to the beta above and beyond the 'sudo apt-get install opera' ?
[09:58] <amphi> g-nome: yw
[09:59] <Illnor> or is that the command you were looking for?
[09:59] <drew> k just mounted it back
[09:59] <g-nome> amphi: how can i concretely change the priority with "sudo top" for a process, let's say id 33333 ?
[09:59] <Blippe> NCTCP Blippe VERSION
[09:59] <Morrowyn> when is dapperdrake exactly going to be released?
[09:59] <Flannel> Morrowyn: june 1st.
[09:59] <amphi> g-nome: hit r, type the PID, and the new nice value
[09:59] <EmxBA> Morrowyn: on 1 june
[09:59] <drew> sweet it worked
[09:59] <Morrowyn> june 1st, sweet :D
[09:59] <intelikey> of course
[10:00] <Morrowyn> i was hoping for it
[10:00] <amphi> g-nome: type the pid & hit enter that is
[10:00] <EmxBA> Morrowyn: order free ubuntu from shipit.ubuntu.com, it is shipping
[10:00] <g-nome> ampih: how can i scroll?
[10:00] <Krpano> quick question.......what is the command line for DELETE and RENAME on the terminal.....sry for the dumb question
[10:00] <Illnor> what visual adjustments to gnome do you guys think makes ubuntu look more beautiful?
[10:01] <Dkt> If I am supposed to move something from my home-folder ( /home/frantic) to "~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Warcraft3/" , how should I write? I have tried following: "mv "/home/frantic/war3.exe" "~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Warcraft3/" but it doesnt work.
[10:01] <skippy_> DylanPierce from what I can see you are out of luck, linux supports icecast broadcasting, but because shoutcast is proprietary i doubt linux will be of use for it
[10:01] <DylanPierce> skippy_ Yes, that's more or less the conclusion I was arriving at.
[10:01] <EmxBA> Dkt: mv -r
[10:01] <loco_gr> Krpano, rm for delete and mv for rename
[10:01] <Morrowyn> oh nice :D
[10:01] <tmbg37> hello, ever since I apt-get upgraded this morning, emacs's fonts have shrunk for some reason
[10:01] <Morrowyn> thanks EmxBA
[10:01] <tmbg37> does anyone know why this would happen?
[10:01] <Krpano> loco_gr , thx
[10:01] <whiter> anyone know how to make a panel without the two side controls
[10:02] <whiter> i want it to be a mac osx like panel without the two arrow things on the end
[10:02] <EmxBA> tmbg37. not your flok
[10:02] <JIV> hi, is here anybody from CZE, SVK? i need help..
[10:02] <LoCusF> whiter: in gnome?
[10:02] <DylanPierce> skippy_ Unfortunately, I don't have a choice on Shoutcast broadcasting, it's what I do for a living. If I can't get on the air, I don't get paid.
[10:02] <whiter> LoCusF yea
[10:02] <LoCusF> whiter: you gotta modify the sources
[10:02] <skippy_> yeah I think you will be stuck with windows then Dylan
[10:02] <skippy_> :(
[10:02] <LoCusF> whiter: and then compile your own panel
[10:02] <EmxBA> JIV: i think there's CZE IRC channel
[10:03] <whiter> :\
[10:03] <tmbg37> oh yeah, I'm running dapper
[10:03] <LoCusF> whiter: I have done that btw :)
[10:03] <g-nome> amphi: it worked, however i don't know how to scoll the processes and is there a function to sort them?
[10:03] <intelikey> whiter configure the panel  remove them
[10:03] <loco_gr> whiter, right click on panel and uncheck the selection "Show hide buttons"
[10:03] <loco_gr> whiter, right click on panel and uncheck the selection "Show hide buttons"
[10:03] <whiter> that doesnt work loco_gr
[10:03] <whiter> theres still two side things
[10:03] <DylanPierce> skippy_ It's too bad, really, because Ubuntu has really impressed me in most other areas. But, I like to get paid because I enjoy occasional meals.
[10:03] <g-nome> what's the difference between "top" and "ps aux"
[10:03] <Dkt> EmxBA, didnt help tought =/
[10:03] <intelikey> whiter it works in kde....
[10:03] <Flannel> DylanPierce: icecast clients are shoutcast compatable.  So you can broadcast to shoutcast servers.
[10:03] <EmxBA> Dkt: sorry
[10:03] <skippy_> well you can always use linux recreationally, and just do your shoutcasting from windows
[10:04] <drew> how come when I tried to run an file it says permission denied
[10:04] <Dkt> EmxBA, the flag doesnt exists it says =/
[10:04] <Flannel> tmbg37: #ubuntu+1 for dapper
[10:04] <drew> and Im super use
[10:04] <drew> user*
[10:04] <tmbg37> thanks flannel
[10:04] <skippy_> or you could buy VMware and run a windows 2k virtual machine for shoutcasting
[10:04] <DylanPierce> flannel Yes, that's what I keep seeing written in the documentation, but I've yet to hear from anyone who claims to have actually done it.
[10:04] <EmxBA> Dkt: i though it exists
[10:04] <Illnor> What is the command to uninstall automatix?
[10:04] <intelikey> drew because the fmask=133
[10:04] <intelikey> files are non executable
[10:04] <drew> well I want to be able to run stuff
[10:04] <Dkt> EmxBA, It maybie exists, but it wasnt a guilty flag it says.
[10:04] <intelikey> would you like to change that ?
[10:04] <intelikey> k
[10:04] <drew> yes plz
[10:05] <loco_gr> Illnor, sudo apt-get remove automatix
[10:05] <Flannel> DylanPierce: I don't understand what the problem is?  You just broadcast to the server.  Nothing to it.
[10:05] <EmxBA> Dkt: then sorry, i just *thought*
[10:05] <LoCusF> whiter: first: sudo apt-get build-deps gnome-panel
[10:05] <intelikey> change the fmask=133 to fmask=033
[10:05] <drew> k
[10:05] <Dkt> EmxBA, No problems.
[10:05] <EmxBA> Dkt: ok
[10:05] <whiter> k
[10:05] <intelikey> drew and remount as before
[10:05] <LoCusF> whiter: then sudo apt-get source gnome-panel
[10:05] <Morrowyn> weee, i ordered some, gonna feed them to some friends whomight wanna try linux but are still hesitant and scared by it
[10:05] <DylanPierce> flannel In theory, perhaps, but in actual practice, it doesn't work. I've used Ices, MuSE and a couple of others, and they install fine... and then do nothing.
[10:05] <Flannel> DylanPierce: "do nothing"?
[10:06] <Illnor> Will we be able to easily upgrade from breezy to drake?
[10:06] <skippy_> lol
[10:06] <DylanPierce> flannel With Ices, literally nothing. It sits there. With MuSE, it gives me a half-error message.
[10:06] <Flannel> LoCusF: why on earth does he need to do that? (modify source) there's a configuration opton.
[10:06] <Flannel> Illnor: yeah, single command, and a few clicks.
[10:06] <EmxBA> intelikey: vfat sucks, anyway, why anyone should use it
[10:06] <LoCusF> Flannel: it doesn't remove all of the sides
[10:06] <intelikey> drew you do know that you have to use something like wine or cedega to exec win32 files.  no ?
[10:07] <drew> its not a win32 files
[10:07] <tbenita> hi, I have an issue with gnome and the auto mount process : with the ubuntu kernel it mounts fine and I can click on the gnome icon in order to access the volume ;
[10:07] <Illnor> Flannel: What will the command be when it is released?
[10:07] <gambit> how do i move a folder to trash if permission denied?
[10:07] <drew> its a linux excutable
[10:07] <intelikey> EmxBA for a transfer location accessable to xp and *nix
[10:07] <Flannel> whiter: If you want to make it look like OSX, I believe most people remove those panels entirely, and use some other things, gdesklets, etc to do that.
[10:07] <tbenita> with my custom kernel it also mounts fine, but if I click on the volume icon it tries to re-mount it
[10:07] <Flannel> !tell Illnor about upgrade
[10:08] <intelikey> drew ok.  <shrugs/>
[10:08] <Flannel> Illnor: that page (dapper upgrades one) will give you all the details
[10:08] <tbenita> is there any patch or option needed for the auto mount process ?
[10:08] <EmxBA> intelikey: yes, but ext2 or ext3 or reiser, they are better with *nix, though they don't work on winblows
[10:08] <neoncode> How do I open a password-protected(at least I think it is) .rar file?
[10:08] <intelikey> EmxBA i agree.
[10:08] <drew> let me see if I can open it now
[10:08] <EmxBA> intelikey: whichone do you use
[10:08] <Thlayli_> neoncode: unrar e yourfile.rar
[10:08] <Thlayli_> it should prompt for a password
[10:09] <neoncode> Thlayli_: right...
[10:09] <intelikey> EmxBA although there is a e2fsexplorer or something one can use in M$ env
[10:09] <Illnor> should I upgrade to this 6.06 LTS ?
[10:09] <intelikey> EmxBA ext2
[10:09] <EmxBA> intelikey: yes, but it can only read
[10:09] <EmxBA> you cant write
[10:09] <grogoreo> hi
[10:09] <tbenita> I have a 'mount error' '/dev/sda1 is already mounted on /media/usbdisk' 'Error : cannot execute pmount' Any idea ?
[10:09] <grogoreo> how can I change the current language?
[10:09] <intelikey> EmxBA but *nix can read ntfs  so  copy from....   not to....
[10:10] <grogoreo> I've installed two langauges
[10:10] <Flannel> Illnor: once it's released, I actually think you won't need to do any commands, you'll be asked if you want to upgrade during your normal updates.
[10:10] <skippy_> intelikey, sad as it is M$ Fat32 is still the best way to share data between linux and windows
[10:10] <SurfnKid> hey gus how do i list only directories with the ls command i cant find it in the --help
[10:10] <EmxBA> intelikey: but Winblows can't read anything than fat and ntfs
[10:10] <EmxBA> shippy_: i really agree
[10:10] <skippy_> NTFS can be written in linux, but it has issues
[10:10] <jeff_> How can I change my "Computer Name"
[10:10] <intelikey> EmxBA read my eariler post  about e2fsexplorer
[10:11] <drew> okay so how do I see the programs gui
[10:11] <EmxBA> jeff_ ;:you mean hostname
[10:11] <intelikey> EmxBA M$ can read ext# fs
[10:11] <EmxBA> intelikey: not by default
[10:11] <EmxBA> some drivers are needed, IMHo best is e2fsexplorer (ext*)
[10:11] <hmpedersen> I have to give up. There is nuffin else left to try.
[10:11] <intelikey> drew file manager   navagate to /media/hda5
[10:12] <EmxBA> hmpedersen: have you solved network problems with wireless
[10:12] <hmpedersen> PLenty of times before
[10:12] <hmpedersen> But I need a linux system.. I have no choice but to install the only other distro I have..
[10:12] <g-nome> what's the difference between "top" and "ps aux"
[10:13] <skippy_> hmpendersen, what other distro do you have?#
[10:13] <Illnor> Has anyone installed ximian on ubuntu?
[10:13] <jeff_> HELLO Mates - Question, please "HOW CAN I CHANGE MY COMPUTER NAME"
[10:13] <hmpedersen> I swore i would never touch that piece of.... again.. :(
[10:13] <intelikey> g-nome top is a running app ps prints and exits
[10:13] <Flannel> g-nome: ps aux gives you a list of what's running, top orders them in their usage, and is real time.
[10:13] <intelikey> g-nome i like pstree
[10:13] <EmxBA> jeff_: hostname <computer name>
[10:13] <EmxBA> in console
[10:13] <eshowl> hey guys, i am woundring how to get my wacom tablet working on my dapper 6.06?
[10:13] <jeff_> EmxBA  - cheers!
[10:13] <Flannel> eshowl: #ubuntu+1 for dapper support, until the 1st.
[10:13] <Irelandshope> I am running dapper 6.06 on a pretty fast machine 2.26Ghz Pentium M 2GB ram but even in an idle state the system monitor is shown CPU at 50-70% any ideas?
[10:14] <Flannel> Irelandshope: you too.
[10:14] <g-nome> intelikey: yes it's nice indeed, however is there a way of showing the pid?
[10:14] <intelikey> g-nome yes.  man pstree
[10:14] <EmxBA> Irelanshope: ....no
[10:14] <eshowl> Flannel: you mean go the #ubuntu+1 chanel?
[10:14] <Flannel> eshowl: yeah, that's dapper support for the moment.
[10:14] <s00ty> How can I make my ubuntu use less resources. It seems to be bloated, even though I have just installed it
[10:14] <gnomefreak> ps aux will ouput pid's
[10:14] <skippy_> s00ty download "BUM" from synaptic
[10:15] <intelikey> g-nome also  pidof   is handy for killing things, or renicing them.
[10:15] <amphi> s00ty: how did you discover this 'bloat'? memory usage?
[10:16] <g-nome> intelikey: how does that work, pidof. ? and how to show pid of pstree? can you please give me the option?
[10:16] <skippy_> also s00ty, take a look at this thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=89491&highlight=feel+boot+process

[10:16] <gr3yj4y>           ocess
[10:16] <skippy_> g-nome, every running process has a thread id called a "pid"
[10:16] <g-nome> i know
[10:16] <puff> so I'm here in winxp because ubuntu for some reason doesn't see the wireless here.
[10:16] <EmxBA> gr3yj4y: don't spam us
[10:16] <EmxBA> please
[10:17] <puff> I suspect that it may be that it's latching onto one of the secured wireless etworks in the area and not onto the public network.
[10:17] <jeff_> I cannot believe how great this distro is !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[10:17] <puff> What can I do to control this?
[10:17] <puff> jeff_: It does indeed rock.
[10:17] <g-nome> but how to know the pid of some processes with pidof or pstree?
[10:17] <rixxon> jeff_: oh, you noticed. :>
[10:17] <jeff_> puff: blows me away....
[10:17] <hmpedersen> jeff, yeah. you won't find anything better
[10:18] <rixxon> hmpedersen: have you tried every single alternative? :)
[10:18] <skippy_> g-nome if you see for example syslogd on your pstree then type "pidof syslogd" to get the pid
[10:18] <EmxBA> jeff_: ubuntu is really perfect distro for human beings
[10:18] <jeff_> I have tried EVERYTHING....from fc3 to suse,,,UBUNTU is AM_AZING !
[10:18] <[dylan] > back
[10:18] <hmpedersen> rixxon yes
[10:18] <skippy_> g-gome you can then type for example "kill 3324" to kill that process
[10:18] <EmxBA> jeff_: ubuntu really rocks
[10:18] <puff> So speaking of human beings, any advice on my wireless question?
[10:18] <hmpedersen> All i have left is the best and the worst
[10:18] <rixxon> hmpedersen: "ok" :P
[10:18] <[dylan] > jeff_: yes.. apart that i've nvidia problems :D
[10:18] <hmpedersen> And I can tell you.. Xandros is -THE- worst os ever!
[10:18] <g-nome> skippy_ and what's "killall" for?
[10:18] <[dylan] > can anyone help me with nvidia drivers.. even with easyubuntu they keeps hanging hard my laptop once switched on
[10:19] <skippy_> g-nome i believe it kills all processes with a matching name rather than a pid, but im not too sure
[10:19] <amphi> puff: does iwlist scan show several networks?
[10:19] <skippy_> g-nome it would be good if one process spawned loads of pids and you wanted to kill em all quickly
[10:19] <puff> g-nome it's effectively ps | fgrep targetname | xargs kill
[10:19] <hmpedersen> But atleast Xandros works with all the hardware i have :(
[10:19] <puff> amphi:  Yes.
[10:20] <drew> how do I run this app
[10:20] <amphi> puff: so configure the essid channel etc with iwconfig
[10:20] <g-nome> ok
[10:20] <EmxBA> hmpedersen: have you tried arch linux
[10:20] <EmxBA> great distro
[10:20] <skippy_> hey g-nome give "top" a try, i find that i only ever want to kill stuff which makes it onto the top list
[10:20] <skippy_> so its a quick way of doing it
[10:20] <puff> amphi hm, Okay, I'll give that a shot.
[10:20] <amphi> g-nome: top is quite handy for renicing progs
[10:21] <skippy_> yeah i love "top"
[10:21] <hmpedersen> EmxBA, sounds like something from Airwolf
[10:21] <puff> g-nome: Generally you don't *want* to kill any process, but sometimes you have to.
[10:21] <EmxBA> hmpedersen: so you haven't, right
[10:21] <amphi> puff: once associated, dhclient <iface> or ifconfig <iface> to configure the interface
[10:21] <puff> Somtimes software is coded such that there is no UI optionf or killing it.
[10:21] <egkamp>  I'm having trouble changing system variables.  It seems that changes that I make to ~/.bash_profile will show up in a linux console, but not in an xterm.
[10:21] <drew> can somebody help me with visual boy advance
[10:21] <skippy_> ok guys, i have a question - does anyone know how the initial modules are chosen to match your hardware? is there some sort of autodetect process run at bootup?
[10:21] <EmxBA> skippy_: make a great swap partition and it will be much faster
[10:22] <EmxBA> drew: me
[10:22] <puff> A normal kill without any paramters (e.g. "kill 34322"), aka a "soft kill" is actually a standard way of asking the process to shut down.
[10:22] <Poker> hello...how solve this problem? debsig: Origin Signature check failed. This deb might not be signed
[10:22] <drew> ok
[10:22] <hmpedersen> Couldn't possibly be as bad as this piece of .... i'm installing right now!
[10:22] <drew> I unextracted the folder
[10:22] <EmxBA> drew: i had visual-boy-advance for linux
[10:22] <amphi> "Gentoo Linux causes global warming!", heh
[10:22] <EmxBA> hmpedersen: what
[10:22] <EmxBA> drew: it is available in source
[10:22] <puff> A kill -9, aka a "hard kill" yanks the rug out from underneath the process.
[10:22] <hmpedersen> arch linux

[10:22] <JIV> hi, im noob, how to delete files in terminal?
[10:22] <drew> I know
[10:22] <EmxBA> hmpedersen: great
[10:22] <drew> how do I run it
[10:22] <amphi> JIV: rm
[10:22] <JIV> tnx
[10:23] <EmxBA> JIV: rm <file>
[10:23] <hmpedersen> It couldn't possibly be as bad as Xan...s
[10:23] <skippy_> JIV use rm but be very careful
[10:23] <EmxBA> *file*
[10:23] <puff> JIV:  Rule number one:  never, ever, ever enter "rm -rf *"
[10:23] <skippy_> JIV especially beware of -r flag
[10:23] <puff> JIV:  That command will basically delete anything and everything witout asking you.
[10:23] <amphi> JIV: rm -i is a PITA but safer ;)
[10:23] <jeff_> what chat clients are u guys using ?
[10:23] <T-CAN> is there anyway i can view the files on a windows partition that i have on my slave hdd?
[10:23] <amphi> jeff_: irssi
[10:23] <Poker> hello...how solve this problem? debsig: Origin Signature check failed. This deb might not be signed
[10:23] <Flannel> !tell T-CAN about NTFS
[10:23] <hmpedersen> jeff: xchat
[10:23] <skippy_> hehe i lost a root partition from a misplaced slash at the end of a recursive delete
[10:23] <drew> I ran ./visualboyadvance
[10:23] <Flannel> T-CAN: read your message from ubotu
[10:23] <drew> and it made  this long list of options
[10:23] <puff> JIV:  Rule #2, whenever using wildcards  always do "ls pattern" first, then do "rm pattern"
[10:23] <EmxBA> JIV: when you delete files in console they wont be sent to "trash"
[10:24] <EmxBA> drew: if you have wine
[10:24] <jeff_> how can you get that "user: " when you speak to someone directly..that's brilliant
[10:24] <Noah0504> Does anyone know how I can run BitTorrent in the terminal?
[10:24] <EmxBA> try visual boy advance for windows :D
[10:24] <drew> I hve tried it
[10:24] <brandon> is there an apt command for deleting all of the downloaded debs int he cache?
[10:24] <puff> EmxBA: Hm, funny that, maybe ubuntu should have a trashcan-oriented delete command?
[10:24] <skippy_> JIV a good trick is "gksudo nautilus" will let you delete anything using the gui
[10:24] <amphi> puff: you could write a shell func
[10:24] <T-CAN> thanks
[10:24] <drew> but I want to run this one
[10:24] <EmxBA> puff: you should suggest that to ubuntu  edgy etch :D
[10:24] <Flannel> brandon: apt-get clean or apt-get autoclean
[10:24] <puff> amphi:  Yeah, would probably be a good idea.
[10:25] <EmxBA> drew; just wait me to find a link
[10:25] <g-nome> thanks for explanations, puff
[10:25] <EmxBA> trust me, i have set it up
[10:25] <aLd> noah0504: btdownloadcurses
[10:25] <puff> Just have it move it to /tmp/trash/path-encoded-in-filename.
[10:25] <pouet> how to read dvd with totem gstreamer ?
[10:25] <puff> As for irc clients, I use emacs :-).
[10:25] <amphi> puff: or ~/shell_trash or whatever, perhaps - /tmp gets cleaned up at boot time IIRC
[10:26] <amphi> puff: er, ~/.shell_trash
[10:26] <firezip_> Does anybody know where I can download the winamp Presents from XMMS?
[10:26] <firezip_> for*
[10:26] <Noah0504> aLd: Yay!  Thanks a million.  I've been trying forever to figure out what to call up in the terminal!
[10:26] <skippy_> pouet i think you need to use totem xine. Have you followed the wiki guide to get the codecs and unlocks?
[10:26] <Cooner750> Hello. I installed KDE and am using it now, applications like this, XChat, Firefox, etc.. are all really ugly. What to do?
[10:27] <firezip_> !XMMS Presents
[10:27] <ubotu> firezip_: Bugger all, I dunno. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[10:27] <EmxBA> Cooner750: how do you mean
[10:27] <aLd> Noah: Cool glad you got that sorted
[10:27] <pouet> skippy_: I have what is needed for totem xine, I was wondering for totem gstreamer
[10:27] <pouet> skippy_: that's bad to have it as default
[10:27] <hmpedersen> EmxBA, they look not as pretty as in gnome..
[10:28] <hmpedersen> I tried it 4 months ago..
[10:28] <firezip_> does anybody know where I can get winamp presents for XMMS?!
[10:28] <Cooner750> All of the apps like Firefox and XChat look like Windows 9x
[10:28] <EmxBA> hmpedersen: well, i know that from before, gnome was always better than KDE :D
[10:28] <skippy_> pouet, i dont think gstreamer is capable of it yet im afraid
[10:28] <pouet> skippy_: ah
[10:28] <EmxBA> Cooner750: try #kubuntu, maybe you have set redmond KDE theme
[10:28] <EmxBA> :D
[10:28] <hmpedersen> EmxBA, you will get no arguement from me there ;)
[10:28] <JIV> i going to use   aptitude install <kernel>   , but what i must set to <kernel> ?
[10:28] <skippy_> i think you could keep totem with gstreamer, and just install the xine program on its own to watch dvds though
[10:28] <EmxBA> JIV: version
[10:28] <brandon> Cooner750: the gnome apps can be kde-ized using system settings==>appearance==>GTK styles and fonts. set it to use my kde style in gtk applications
[10:29] <EmxBA> hmpedersen: so, dou you like gnome
[10:29] <hmpedersen> No. I don't like Gnome.. I hate KDE..
[10:29] <JIV> EmxBA: ok but which..
[10:29] <Cooner750> brandon: That option is not there
[10:29] <_jason> is it possible for me to download linux-headers-2.6.15-22-686.deb from some location?
[10:29] <Cooner750> I remember installing something on my other computer to get that option
[10:30] <brandon> yeah, i'm not sure what it is
[10:30] <hmpedersen> too bad xan is kde only :(
[10:30] <brandon> try installing the metapackages like "kde" and "kubuntu-desktop"
[10:30] <g-nome> Cooner: you probably don't like gnome interface
[10:31] <JIV> i going to use   aptitude install <kernel>   , can me tell anybody which number of kernel?
[10:31] <g-nome> it's normal, i was too like that but one day *bang* i begin to like it more and more... strange isn't it?
[10:32] <aLPHa_LeaK> JIV: what do you want to install, kernel header or source or what?
[10:32] <JIV> EmxBA: ok but which number of kernel?..
[10:32] <EmxBA> drew: you need http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/vba/VisualBoyAdvance-1.7.1-SDL-linux-glibc22.tar.gz?download
[10:32] <EmxBA> and glibc
[10:32] <EmxBA> with SDL
[10:32] <EmxBA> JIV: ubuntu default is 2.6.15
[10:32] <g-nome> btw, i have the same "problem" as Cooner750, when opening some programs in root, they become grey and not themed
[10:33] <JIV> Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched "2.6.15"
[10:33] <JIV>     :((
[10:33] <JIV> aLPHa_LeaK: kernel..new
[10:33] <Stork> is there any way to scp un-securely?
[10:33] <EmxBA> you may want to upgrade kernel to <IP_ADDRESS>
[10:33] <_jason> JIV: aptitude search linux-image   will show you the kernels you can install
[10:34] <EmxBA> JIV: try _jason's advice
[10:34] <ollo82> my gnome splash screen doesnt disappear when is start xgl
[10:34] <crazy_penguin> good night everybody. pleasent dreams! :)
[10:34] <skippy_> ollo82 i had the same problem
[10:34] <whiter> is there similar applications to gdesklet?
[10:34] <ollo82> is there a hint?
[10:34] <aLPHa_LeaK> JIV: linux-`uname -r` works fine
[10:34] <skippy_> i just disabled the splash creen
[10:34] <EmxBA> ollo82:try #ubuntu-xgl
[10:34] <EmxBA> i think
[10:35] <ollo82> ok
[10:35] <Stork> _jason, you can get that kernel on breezy?
[10:35] <Dkt> How do I remove a folder? rm or something?
[10:35] <skippy_> the other option for you ollo82 is to actually run XGL first instead of loading it once x is up
[10:35] <EmxBA> rm -r <folder>
[10:35] <Dkt> ok
[10:35] <EmxBA> startxgl
[10:35] <_jason> Stork: no, I just remembered this channel was for breezy, I asked in ubuntu+1
[10:35] <Stork> _jason, ah, you confused me there :p
[10:36] <marcipano> is this channel made for  help ? could anyone help me with Crossover Office and cirrylic support?
[10:36] <EmxBA> marcipano: offtopic, where do you live
[10:36] <EmxBA> russia?
[10:36] <Stork> is there any way to scp un-securely?
[10:36] <marcipano> EmxBA, near to it :)
[10:36] <marcipano> damn Latvia
[10:36] <marcipano> :D

[10:37] <EmxBA> the best
[10:37] <Stork> is there any way to transfer files from an ubuntu box to a deb box un-securely over the LAN ?
[10:37] <EmxBA> marcipano: of course
[10:37] <amphi> Stork: scp ?
[10:37] <skippy_> yeah i used to do it that way olloB2, now though i dont have a session, i load xgl instead of xorg, and then boot compiz from a script - its not advised though
[10:38] <Stork> amphi, it encrypts the data, iirc
[10:38] <petiteconne> skippy_: y insecure transfer?
[10:38] <skippy_> but it does fix the spash problem
[10:38] <amphi> Stork: what's the problem with that?
[10:38] <amphi> Stork: you could just use netcat
[10:38] <petiteconne> sry aeh Stork
[10:38] <sindrum> i use filerunner ftp
[10:38] <Stork> what's netcat?
[10:38] <aLPHa_LeaK> JIV: are you using breezy repos?
[10:38] <ollo82> skippy_: is there a guide to do it your way?
[10:39] <EmxBA> sindrum: gFTP is one of the best

[10:43] <thedevilsjester>  Ok, I just followed the upgrade procedure from 5.10 to the release candidate, and besides a few hickups, everything went well, except that my 1680x1050 widescreen format that I had before the upgrade, isnt working now.  Any ideas?  I tried the sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg , it didnt work either.
[10:43] <EmxBA> and then sudo apt-get install jre....
[10:43] <skippy_> ollo82 this is my /etc/gdm/gdm.conf-custom file http://pastebin.com/745553 linked again because i spelt your name wrong before
[10:44] <puff> amphi Well, that didn't work.
[10:44] <amphi> puff: what didn't work?
[10:45] <amphi> puff: essid channel/freq mode etc are correct?
[10:45] <puff> iwconfig essid essidname
[10:45] <puff> it's not getting a response from dhcp requests.
[10:45] <amphi> puff: channel? mode?
[10:45] <puff> AFAIK they're correct.
[10:46] <puff> I guess I can go back and go through each detail and check it.
[10:46] <puff> What bugs me is that it used to work just fine... not sure wht changed.
[10:46] <BrianHH> Okay, I found a line in the sources.list with multiverse in it, so I uncommented that.
[10:46] <puff> It's annoying doing this with one dual-boot machine.
[10:46] <puff> I need to borrow somebody's machine and then just run them simultaneously.
[10:47] <amphi> puff: perhaps you have something like waproamd running that's trying to associate to the wrong network?
[10:47] <EmxBA> BrianHH: anyway, after editing sources.list just type sudo apt-get update to update list of available packages
[10:47] <puff> Possibly, I don't recall installing waproamd, are there packages that depend on it?
[10:47] <amphi> dunno
[10:47] <HillTop> Is xubuntu set to release on June 1??  I rtried the livecd and it didn't look like it was very close to release. I think it wouild be ideal for an old P450 I have .
[10:48] <will-c> im having a problem upgrading to dapper, with a dpkg error processing lvm2
[10:48] <will-c> any ideas?
[10:48] <amphi> puff: the gui network config prog may be interfering?
[10:48] <BrianHH> EmxBA:  Okay, I did that.
[10:48] <NinjaDuck> hi, just using the 5.10 install cd and i keep getting an error suring install :"Unable to install initrd-tools" can anyone help?
[10:48] <EmxBA> have you updated list of packages, BrianHH
[10:48] <ollo82> skippy_: do you start the script manually or automatic?
[10:49] <will-c> NinjaDuck: sounds bad, are you sure the disk is ok?
[10:49] <BrianHH> EmxBA:  Yes, right after I edited the sources.list file, I ran apt-get update
[10:49] <Okay> hi
[10:49] <EmxBA> now, search kernel or something similar
[10:49] <EmxBA> in synaptic
[10:49] <BockBilbo> is it possible to install rockbox on any archos mp3 player?
[10:49] <puff> I should just upgrade ubuntu and try after that.
[10:49] <skippy_> ollo82 i start it manually for more control, but you could just add it to your gnome startup using the gui : "system > prefs > session"
[10:49] <NinjaDuck> will-c: this is the second disc i've tried, same problem :(
[10:49] <ollo82> ok, thx
[10:50] <skippy_> ollo82 remember the script only starts compiz, doing it my way XGL is Xwindows
[10:50] <will-c> NinjaDuck: did you try checking the checksum?
[10:50] <ollo82> skippy_: is that a problem?
[10:50] <skippy_> ollo82, so only do it my way if you dont have issues with XGL
[10:50] <skippy_> because you wont easily be able to choose between an XGL session and a normal session
[10:50] <ollo82> i dont see any issues
[10:50] <skippy_> IMO XGL is rock solid though, its only compiz that can crash
[10:51] <ollo82> but i think i try it with dont starting the splash
[10:51] <skippy_> ollo82 please mate, make backups though, and make sure you know how to restore the old file
[10:51] <Bazzi> skippy_: and ati drivers
[10:51] <thedevilsjester> XLG is...horrid...btw...I develop OGL apps and most of them dont work in XGL :(
[10:51] <ollo82> jo, thx
[10:51] <skippy_> :)
[10:51] <BrianHH> EmxBA:  I'm still getting the same error after updating.
[10:51] <EmxBA> which?
[10:51] <IBEGONE> is there anything similar to knewsticker for gnome-panel?
[10:52] <skippy_> good luck :) i recommend checking out the forums as well ollo82, theres tons of XGL threads - too many imo :P
[10:52] <amphi> thedevilsjester: great :(
[10:52] <kyoushu> Hello
[10:52] <kyoushu> Can I get support here?
[10:52] <BrianHH> EmxBA:  "The package jre needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.
[10:52] <BrianHH> "
[10:52] <NinjaDuck> will-c: k3b says the checksum is ok
[10:52] <Fire-NR> trying to install the ati drivers and i get a error, trying to install a precompiled kernel module - precompiled kernel moudle version mismatched - no kernel module build envrioment
[10:53] <Fire-NR> any ideas what that means
[10:53] <ollo82> skippy_: thats the problem and the reason why i ask here :)
[10:54] <BrianHH> Fire-NR:  That sounds like it means you're trying to install the wrong version for your kernel.
[10:54] <Fire-NR> ah :) thanks
[10:54] <Fire-NR> why didn't it just say that
[10:54] <BrianHH> Fire-NR: It kinda did, but it said it in geekspeak. ;)
[10:55] <Fire-NR> yer well we ain't all geeks, we don't all understand geeks :|
[10:55] <Fire-NR> hmm ok i'm confused :| there is only one linux driver on ati's site :Z|
[10:55] <BrianHH> Fire-NR:  Yeah, I hear ya.  That's why I'm here getting help, too. :)
[10:56] <skippy_> brb reboot
[10:56] <BrianHH> Fire-NR:  Do you have a file called ati-config?  That's what I needed to get my video card running.
[10:56] <jumli> .
[10:56] <PetrolBomb> .
[10:56] <RoninGurl> BrianHH, You know how you can get a job at geeksquad? Tell every user they need to pay you to format the computer so that you can get paid hourly for reinstalling Windowds XP.
[10:57] <PetrolBomb> WHats a windows?
[10:57] <EmxBA> PetrolBomb: LOL
[10:57] <RoninGurl> PetrolBomb, its this wonderful operating system that gets an undeserved bad rep.
[10:57] <PetrolBomb> *grin*
[10:58] <Anderson> how do I get a list of installed packages?
[10:58] <EmxBA> PetrolBomb: it's better, for you, to don't know anything about windows
[10:58] <BrianHH> Come to think of it, aticonfig isn't running for me right now, either.  Hmm...
[10:58] <EmxBA> i like to call it winblows
[10:58] <EmxBA> :D
[10:58] <gnomefreak> Anderson: synaptic
[10:58] <MyNameIsNotBob> Did anyone else in here have problems with users when installing Dapper Drake?
[10:58] <LasseL> (it's the one that has games folks)
[10:58] <amphi> Anderson: dpkg -l | grep '^ii'
[10:58] <Anderson> gnomefreak, I'm looking for CLI outputs
[10:59] <Anderson> thanks
[10:59] <gnomefreak> MyNameIsNotBob: try #ubuntu+1 might get better responce
[10:59] <EmxBA> MyNameIsNotBob: i haven't
[10:59] <RoninGurl> brb
[10:59] <gnomefreak> me neither btw
[10:59] <amphi> Anderson: COLUMNS=200 dpkg -l | grep '^ii' | less is perhaps better
[10:59] <jmedina> hi there
[11:00] <BrianHH> Fire-NR:  The file is called aticonfig, not ati-config.  It might work for you.
[11:00] <Stork> what's the command for seeing how much HDD space you have
[11:00] <jmedina> I want to change my network configs in the console
[11:00] <amphi> Stork: df [-h]
[11:00] <jmedina> I edited my file /etc/network/interfaces
[11:00] <EmxBA> jmedina: what exactly
[11:00] <NinjaDuck> this sounds like an silly question, but how do i install with the dapper cd, it just goes to a command line when i click the Install button
[11:00] <chaos_of_apocaly> could anyone tell me wich proxy can i use in MSN and IRC?
[11:00] <jmedina> changed the IP but when I run /etc/init.d/networking restart
[11:00] <jmedina> doesnt works
[11:01] <EmxBA> NinjaDuck: which version
[11:01] <EmxBA> flight or first beta versions
[11:01] <jumli> Hi, i have two domains... say i have "abc1.com" and "abc2.com" - on "abc2.com" i use ns1.afraid.org as an name-server... is it possible to use for example ns1.abc2.com as an CNAME to "ns1.afraid.org" and then use "ns1.abc2.com" as name-server for "abc.com"? Do anyone understands me?
[11:01] <NinjaDuck> the most recent beta one
[11:01] <jmedina> EmxBA, what is the correct command to change the ip?
[11:01] <jmedina> I know I can use ifconfig, and route
[11:01] <jmedina> but I want to use it in the ubuntu way
[11:01] <EmxBA> yeah, ifconfig and route
[11:02] <EmxBA> what exactly
[11:02] <jmedina> EmxBA, I want to change the IP address
[11:02] <[dylan] > none have ever had complete pc freeze when trying to load nvidia drivers?
[11:02] <RobNyc> !mp3
[11:02] <ubotu> mp3 is, like, totally, a non-free format. To enable mp3 capability, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[11:02] <jmedina> Im moving from one net to other
[11:02] <majd> what should i use to burn iso files?
[11:02] <mirak> I am a bit tired by the nvidia driver from restricted modules that breaks after some upgrades. how is that possible ? isn't the restricted package bound to the appropriate kernel ?
[11:02] <EmxBA> majd: cdrecord, or Ubuntu CD creator
[11:03] <LasseL> jmedina, did you try System > Administration > Networking ?
[11:03] <wulax> majd: or gnomebaker or graveman
[11:03] <glick> hehe i think i just found a big bug in either X or the firefox or the kernel itself
[11:03] <NinjaDuck> EmxBA: i am trying to install the LTS
[11:03] <Stork> crap
[11:04] <Stork> how do i find and mount a 2nd hard drive from the command line?
[11:04] <EmxBA> NinjaDuck: live or install CD
[11:04] <jmedina> LasseL, I dont have X
[11:04] <gepatino_> anyone here with experience in LTSP 4.2 ?
[11:04] <LasseL> jmedina, all the more reason to get it :p
[11:05] <LasseL> jmedina, edit /etc/network/interfaces
[11:05] <Stork> how do i find and mount a 2nd hard drive from the command line?
[11:05] <NinjaDuck> EmxBA: i;ve found where i went wrong, i was running a live cd, i thought Desktop would be the install
[11:05] <NinjaDuck> thanks
[11:05] <BrianHH> Okay, JRE completely ****ed my system.  Is there any way to nuke it without using apt-get?  Apt seems to be DOA.
[11:06] <EmxBA> NinjaDuck: I had several problems with espresso (Ubuntu installer, it opens when you click on "install")
[11:06] <jumli> Hi, i have two domains... say i have "abc1.com" and "abc2.com" - on "abc2.com" i use ns1.afraid.org as an name-server... is it possible to use for example ns1.abc2.com as an CNAME to "ns1.afraid.org" and then use "ns1.abc2.com" as name-server for "abc.com"? Do anyone understands me?
[11:06] <Dawei> ! JRE
[11:06] <ubotu> Dawei: No idea, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[11:06] <gepatino_> !ltsp

[11:06] <Jowi> jumli: doesn't a cname need to point to an a-record?
[11:07] <Stork> how do i find and mount a 2nd hard drive from the command line?
[11:07] <jmedina> LasseL, I edited that file
[11:07] <SurfnKid> ok this isnt making any sense... im on a directory with executables and they arent responding to my commands, any suggestions
[11:07] <jmedina> and ran /etc/init.d/networking restart
[11:07] <jmedina> but nothing
[11:07] <jmedina> I have tried stop, start
[11:07] <jmedina> and nothing
[11:07] <BrianHH> SurfnKid:  What do you mean by not responding?  What error did you get?
[11:07] <jumli> Jowi: ns1.abc2.se (CNAME) => ns1.afraid.org (A) => ip-addr
[11:08] <LasseL> jmedina, well that is all there is to it
[11:08] <jmedina> ?
[11:09] <wulax> SurfnKid: do you have permissions to execute them?
[11:09] <Stork> how do i find and mount a 2nd hard drive from the command line?
[11:09] <SurfnKid> Brian I have this issue with RealPlayer, when I installed the package in the SMP, it installs the shortcut in the Applications menu as 'RealPlayer' however the link doesnt work. So then I downloaded the RealPlayer10 from the real website and I installed it.... and created another link 'Real Player 10.. that one does work. I've tested it with a live file, I just want to remove the 'RealPlayer' out of the menu, but when I do so, the "RP10
[11:09] <SurfnKid> " shortcut doesnt work
[11:10] <SurfnKid> and the files are all still in the directory where I put them. so maybe its a path thing
[11:10] <LasseL> Stork, ls /dev/hd*
[11:10] <westyvw> is easybuntu still favored over automatix?
[11:11] <LasseL> Stork, sudo mkdir /mnt/newhd
[11:11] <LasseL> Stork, sudo mount /dev/hdb /mnt/newhd
[11:11] <gnomefreak> westyvw: always will be
[11:11] <SurfnKid> it says cannot launch entry Failed to execute no such file or directory
[11:11] <Stork> LasseL, ls /dev/hd* goes from hda to hdh
[11:11] <westyvw> gnomefreak: thanks
[11:12] <SurfnKid> but the directory is there /usr/bin/RealPlayer10/Player/ and all the files are here
[11:12] <BrianHH> SurfnKid:  Have you tried running realplay from the commandline?
[11:12] <gnomefreak> SurfnKid: are you cd'ed to where the file is?
[11:12] <Dkt> How do I create a folder?
[11:13] <Dkt> what command.
[11:13] <LasseL> Stork, try inspecting them with sudo fdisk -l /dev/hdX
[11:13] <gnomefreak> Dkt: mkdir
[11:13] <Dkt> gnomefreak, thanks
[11:13] <gnomefreak> yw
[11:13] <SurfnKid> i think so.. brian i ran realplay and it didnt do anything let me check again
[11:14] <Jowi> jumli: ns1.abc2.se (cname) can point to superserver.abc2.se (a-record)
[11:14] <xKintaro> Hey, I have this problem
[11:14] <SurfnKid> gnomefreak let me check ive been idling so i think the dir changed
[11:14] <xKintaro> Ubuntu really sucks
[11:14] <Stork> LasseL, hdb seems to work.. it says the system is 'Linux' and it appears to be the correct size.. how can i mount it?
[11:14] <si9o> hi all. having some trouble getting audio from mpg videos playing in Xfmedia
[11:14] <xKintaro> and you should all give up
[11:14] <xKintaro> It's like, horrible
[11:14] <xKintaro> its a crime against humanity
[11:14] <LasseL> Stork, mount /dev/hdb1 /somewhere
[11:14] <si9o> the videos themselves play fine, just dont have any audio, and can't seem to figure out why
[11:15] <SurfnKid> ok here's something weird
[11:15] <UbuntuUser> hola alguien habla espaol?
[11:15] <roast> I installed epiphany but want firefox to be default. I've set it as the default, every possible conceivable application loads firefox, _except for thunderbird_
[11:15] <PORDO> what program do i use to change the face on gdmlogin?
[11:15] <roast> where else can I check?
[11:15] <LasseL> !es
[11:15] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[11:15] <PORDO> i know i've done it before.
[11:16] <Dkt> gnomefreak, You dont know how to rename a folder?
[11:16] <Stork> LasseL, is there any way to make it auto-mount at boot?
[11:16] <SurfnKid> I ran ls Re* and it gave me RealPlayer10 and again RealPlayer10 with a Player folder within it
[11:16] <si9o> Stork, you have to edit /etc/fstab for that
[11:16] <gnomefreak> Dkt: mkdir folder newname    make sure you use the paths
[11:16] <LasseL> Stork, have you tried System > Administration > Disks
[11:16] <Stork> LasseL, no x-server
[11:16] <Dkt> gnomefreak, thanks
[11:16] <LasseL> Stork, get one
[11:16] <gnomefreak> yw
[11:16] <Stork> LasseL, no monitor...
[11:17] <Stork> si9o, what do i add?
[11:17] <LasseL> Stork, VLC
[11:17] <LasseL> Stork, VNC too
[11:17] <si9o> Stork, you want a hard drive to be auto-mounted when linux boots, right?
[11:17] <Stork> yes
[11:17] <LasseL> !fstab
[11:17] <ubotu> The /etc/fstab file lists all drives and partitions. See also !partitions
[11:18] <deus_> rc`
[11:18] <deus_> rc?
[11:18] <Stork> yeah i think i got it
[11:18] <si9o> sudo vim /etc/fstab
[11:18] <Stork> nano f.t.w
[11:18] <Kasper_G> anybody with experience in Maple 10? ... I have a problem when in math mode the "^" doesn't work. Can anybody help me?
[11:18] <deus_> Wait! when on the first is it going to be released?
[11:18] <Tomcat_> deus_: GOOD question ;D
[11:19] <Jowi> jumli: if you want anything else than redirecting traffic from web.server.se > main.server.se, then cname is not what you want. see if you can do a web-forward or a web-alias instead.
[11:19] <deus_> Kasper_G: i have the same problem
[11:19] <Tomcat_> deus_: Just from experience I'd say rather late.
[11:19] <si9o> you add the /dev/hdX# (X is drive letter, # is partition number) and set some options for how the drive is to be mounted
[11:19] <will-c> \leave #ubuntu
[11:19] <deus_> Kasper_G: i belive you just have to use the function menu on the left.
[11:19] <Kasper_G> deus_: ok, I have contacted some Danish support and they just tell me it isn't a supported distro. There must be a workaround??
[11:19] <Stork> si9o, what options do i need?
[11:20] <BrianHH> If I completely nuke the java directory, then reboot, will that let me use apt-get again?
[11:20] <Kasper_G> deus_: okay, I have seen it working on several other distrol ... Annoying since this is my favourite! :)
[11:20] <Jowi> jumli: so if you want to redirect web.server.se to another domain such as cool.php.com then you can not use a cname
[11:20] <si9o> Stork, it depends on what kind of drive it is: ide, scsi, or SATA?
[11:20] <Dkt> gnomefreak, and at last, how do I remove a folder?
[11:20] <deus_> Kasper_G: i managed to live with it
[11:20] <blaze> how can i remove all the KDE stuff i have?
[11:20] <Stork> si9o, ide, ext3, used for storage
[11:21] <blaze> and leave only the gnome ones
[11:21] <blaze> ?
[11:21] <deus_> oh and, RC?
[11:21] <SurfnKid> gnomefreak im on the dir where the files are and what should i type, name of the file ?
[11:21] <drew> man I never knew linux was this easy
[11:21] <blaze> how can i remove KDE ?
[11:21] <SurfnKid> Bin     common  install.log  LICENSE  plugins   README    realplay.bak  share
[11:21] <SurfnKid> codecs  doc     lib          mozilla  postinst  realplay  realplay.bin
[11:22] <Kasper_G> deus_: well... I will continue to find a workaround. Will post if I have some succes!
[11:22] <SurfnKid> realplay doesnt seem to do much
[11:22] <BrianHH> SurfnKid:  Type "./realplay" and see if it runs.
[11:22] <si9o> Stork, in that case, you'd add /dev/hdX# ext3 noatime,user 0 1
[11:23] <BrianHH> You need the ./ in front of it.
[11:23] <SurfnKid> agrr.. agrr i forgot thats how you do it.. ok works
[11:23] <si9o> Stork where X and # are specific to your hard drive
[11:23] <drew> dfmfkyug
[11:23] <SurfnKid> now how should i change that on the app menu?
[11:23] <Stork> si9o, what's noatime and user? i just used the same settings as my default hd
[11:23] <richard> any decent open source html / php programming editors like dreamweaver?
[11:24] <BrianHH> SurfnKid:  Just make sure that the shortcut on the menu points to the realplay file.
[11:24] <LasseL> richard, jedit perhaps
[11:24] <si9o> Stork, noatime speeds things up a bit, and user allows users other than root to unmount it
[11:25] <si9o> you can set the options to whatever you want
[11:25] <SurfnKid> Brian Im trying :) but I cant seem to get to the run properties
[11:25] <BrianHH> If I completely remove the java directory from my system, will anything bad happen?
[11:25] <VR_> does hp have good linux support?
[11:26] <BrianHH> SurfnKid:  Okay, let me check my system.  brb. :)
[11:26] <morpheus> please help me ubuntu lite formated my hda :(
[11:26] <rootvzla> buenas
[11:27] <BrianHH> VR_:  My laptop and printer are both HP, and they seem to work.
[11:27] <si9o> BrianHH, the worst that can happen is having to recover the system =)
[11:27] <SurfnKid> mis nalgas
[11:27] <VR_> BrianHH: how about wireless?
[11:27] <BrianHH> si9o:  That's not exactly encouraging. ;)
[11:27] <rootvzla> epale sufnkid
[11:27] <SurfnKid> hehe
[11:27] <rootvzla> hehe
[11:27] <BrianHH> VR_:  I haven't tried wireless yet.  Just got the system working well today.
[11:28] <VR_> ok
[11:28] <VR_> which lappy is it?
[11:28] <BrianHH> morpheus:  What are you trying to do?
[11:28] <rootvzla> alguien sabe el canal de ubuntu es?

[11:31] <deus_> what does RC means?
[11:31] <skippy81> hi im having problems installing dvd::rip on dapper, it says it needs dependancys which are allready installed and when started from term says it cant find  libdl.so.2 despite the fact that the library is on my filesystem
[11:31] <BrianHH> morpheus:  I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but once you format a drive, it's pretty much gonzo.  Unfortunately, that data is gone.   :(
[11:31] <morpheus> any chance ??
[11:31] <morpheus> i've canceled until he finished
[11:31] <Poker> hello...how solve this problem? debsig: Origin Signature check failed. This deb might not be signed
[11:31] <LasseL> marcipano, I think you can find them in nautilus by entering fonts:/// in the location bar (ctrl+l)
[11:32] <LuKe-LuKe> have anybody tried to use Qemu with Kqemu accelerator on Ubuntu .... ???
[11:32] <ollo82_> morpheus: there is a chance with a professional program
[11:32] <skippy81> morpheus it will be easy to recover NTFS or Fat
[11:32] <skippy81> very easy
[11:32] <amphi> ext2 is possible
[11:32] <morpheus> so only by program for reovering files ??
[11:32] <drew> why wont limewire connect
[11:32] <pakirri> are there problems with the orinoco drivers and network manager
[11:32] <skippy81> Easy Recovery Pro is the best, but PC inspector on M$ is not bad and its free
[11:33] <SurfnKid> BrianHH how do I execute ./realplay doing a directory like /usr/bin/etc... etc..
[11:33] <skippy81> if you have only deleted the partiton then testdisk in linux could help
[11:33] <PORDO> limewire works great for me...shrug
[11:33] <BrianHH> skippy81:  That's good information.
[11:33] <BrianHH> skippy81:  Thanks. :)
[11:33] <skippy81> just dont under any circumstances write any data to the area of the disk where you data was, and NEVER defragment it
[11:33] <ericz> i tried to use some program on windows to read the linux ext2 partiton last week partiton on the same computer (i dual booted) and the program pretty much screwed the partiton
[11:34] <marcipano> LasseL, Im configuring Crossover Office , and trying to add cyrrilic support to one apliccation. There was an option , to set the dir. where fonts are located ;)
[11:34] <_JECKEL_> so who has any experience in getting things like games to run in wine?
[11:34] <alexito-> who have brain to get ubuntu looks like this http://jimmyjazz.homeip.net:808/Screenshot124.png
[11:34] <alexito-> ? lol
[11:34] <alexito-> i dont have imagination
[11:34] <_JECKEL_> like..diablo 2 maybe
[11:34] <BrianHH> SurfnKid:  You need to know what directory it's in (e.g., /usr/local/realplay) and then run the file with the full path by typing "/usr/local/RealPlayer10/realplay" (for example).
[11:34] <morpheus> skippy: what i must do with testdisk
[11:34] <_JECKEL_> or rather..how can I get wine to recognize I have a CD..or should I just get a CD crack?
[11:35] <kbrooks> Hey.
[11:36] <_JECKEL_> anybody?
[11:36] <skippy81> morpheus, testdisk can recover a deleted PARTITION, but it sounds to me like you actually formatted an existing partiton
[11:36] <BrianHH> brb.  Gonna reboot and hope I still have a system to come back to. :)
[11:36] <blaze> how to update gnome?
[11:36] <skippy81> you really are best off taking the disk out and putting it in a windows box with PC inspector or easy recovery in it
[11:36] <morpheus> i use testdisk and it find my ntfs partition :D
[11:37] <skippy81> did it?
[11:37] <SurfnKid> thats what i thought brian I got it. I need to work on my syntax  / at beginning
[11:37] <skippy81> if it did then restore the partition with test disk
[11:37] <SurfnKid> thanx for the help,
[11:37] <_JECKEL_> nobody?
[11:37] <morpheus> i hop it will work ...
[11:38] <amphi> _JECKEL_: 'cd crackz' are offtopic
[11:38] <skippy81> _JECKEL_ wine only runs a small fraction of programs, you need to google to find out if you have a chance of getting a given game working
[11:39] <canard_> Hello, my unbuntu install keeps getting stuck at 45% Configuring makdev. emm... is there a reason enybody would know for this?
[11:39] <roostishaw> anyone know of a free program like dreamwever for linux?
[11:39] <skippy81> oh and someone, please tell me how i automatically put a name of a user into IRC to save me typing it?
[11:39] <igorzolnikov> how can i disable/enable passive mode ftp... for Connect to Server...?
[11:39] <skippy81> there must be a key-click combo to do it, im using xirc
[11:40] <_JECKEL_> well...I do..the only problem is that it's being bitchy and saying that there is no CD in the drive
[11:40] <Xappe> roostishaw: the closest one I know of is NVU
[11:40] <pakirri> my orinoco silver card doesn't work with network manager in dapper? please help
[11:40] <amphi> skippy81: type a few letters and hit [tab]
[11:40] <_JECKEL_> so i'm wondering if I should take the CD off onto an ISO...or get a CD crack and run the game from that.
[11:41] <_JECKEL_> what would be easier to do...
[11:41] <skippy81> amphi:- thankyou mate, i really should have thought of that :)
[11:41] <LuKe-LuKe> has anybody tried to use Qemu with Kqemu accelerator on Ubuntu .... ???
[11:41] <amphi> making an iso image from a cdrom is trivial; you can use dd
[11:41] <BrianHH> Well, my system survived, but I still can't use apt-get.  Same error message:  "The package jre needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.
[11:41] <BrianHH> "
[11:41] <amphi> skippy81: ;)

[11:44] <Antipodean> hey folks, I was just wondering if there was any way I could backup my installed packages to cd?
[11:44] <_jason> !mp3
[11:44] <ubotu> mp3 is, like, totally, a non-free format. To enable mp3 capability, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[11:44] <si9o> drew, i had some trouble with that too. i have to install xmms
[11:44] <Sanne> Antipodean, don't know about installed, but you can back up the downloaded debs from /var/cache/apt/archives
[11:45] <blaze> Hi there! :) How can i mount this device: Bus 002 Device 002: ID 11f5:0003 Siemens AG (?) Mobile phone USB cable

[11:45] <ecormier> anybody have any trouble with the fglrx upgrade today...I upgraded and now no opengl at all
[11:45] <blaze> can anyone help me?
[11:45] <Jowi> drew: read that restrictedformats page. it works
[11:46] <rseward> How do I install the correct .deb kernel-source package for my kernel 2.6.12-10
[11:46] <drew> but I thought mp3 was a free format
[11:46] <Antipodean> Sanne: & would that include all the updates & whatnot?
[11:46] <crimsun> rseward: apt-get install linux-source-2.6.12
[11:46] <Sanne> Antipodean, you may have to check the apt cache purge time in Synaptic, though.
[11:46] <ecormier> yep
[11:46] <rseward> apt-get install kernel-source-2.6.12 does not work.
[11:46] <rseward> package not found :-(
[11:46] <crimsun> rseward: we use linux-, not kernel-
[11:46] <crimsun> drew: it's very much not so.
[11:46] <rseward> doh!
[11:46] <Sanne> Antipodean, yes, it should, this folder is the place where all deb packages get downloaded to.
[11:46] <rseward> Let me try it.
[11:46] <Antipodean> Sanne: cool, thank you
[11:46] <drew> well what is a good mp3 player I can get with apt-get
[11:47] <Sanne> Antipodean, you're welcome
[11:47] <_jason> drew: have you installed gstreamer0.8-mad?
[11:47] <rseward> Hmm... linux-source worked...
[11:47] <blaze> Hi there! :) How can i mount this device: Bus 002 Device 002: ID 11f5:0003 Siemens AG (?) Mobile phone USB cable
[11:47] <rseward> But so did kernel-source-2.6.11
[11:47] <drew> nope
[11:47] <rseward> confusing for an ubuntu newbie.
[11:48] <LuKe-LuKe> has anybody tried to use Qemu with Kqemu accelerator on Ubuntu .... ???
[11:48] <_jason> drew: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats that page explains that you need that to play mp3's
[11:48] <crimsun> rseward: we don't use kernel-
[11:48] <ecormier> I'm using qemu/kqemu
[11:48] <drew> i went to that page
[11:48] <steel> how do i open a .7z archive in ubuntu?
[11:48] <rseward> crimsun: message received
[11:48] <canard_> Hello, my unbuntu install keeps getting stuck at 45% Configuring makdev. emm... is there a reason enybody would know for this?
[11:48] <crimsun> steel: install p7zip
[11:49] <steel> apt-get it?
[11:49] <crimsun> sure, for whatever value of $install
[11:49] <_jason> Is there any place that I can download an older version of a package? for example linux-headers-2.6.15-22-686 instead of linux-headers-2.6.15-23-686
[11:49] <pakirri> has anybody tried to use Orinoco Wireless Silver Card with Network Manager on Ubuntu Dapper
[11:50] <coreyo> which package/daemon creates the nodes such as /dev/input/* and the pty device nodes?
[11:51] <Jowi> coreyo: udev

[11:51] <coreyo> Jowi: I uninstalled it and reinstalled it, now I'm not getting some needed /dev nodes
[11:51] <coreyo> Jowi, any ideas?
[11:51] <SurfnKid> anyone can give me an easy way to mount my NT partition from the command line in an easy 1..2..3.. step
[11:52] <phyre-x> ubuntuguide.org
[11:52] <Jowi> coreyo: no ideas at all. i never had udev problems so my knowledge of how it works are a bit lacking
[11:52] <lewix> yo
[11:52] <canard_> Hello, my unbuntu install keeps getting stuck at 45% Configuring makdev. emm... is there a reason enybody would know for this?
[11:52] <_jason> ubotu: tell SurfnKid about ntfs
[11:53] <SurfnKid> and ubotu speaks!
[11:53] <Jowi> coreyo: as far as i can tell, the settings read for creating symlinks are at /etc/udev/rules.d
[11:53] <PORDO> SurfnKid the mount command
[11:54] <PORDO> mount -t <fs_type> /dev/blah /mount/blah
[11:54] <Fire-NR> is it really this hard to install the ati drivers :| nothing but trouble
[11:54] <Intune> hello. i installed ubuntu under vmware, and it was supposed to share the host's internet connection. it worked until the first reboot, now i can ping domains, but not open them in a browser. where could the problem be?
[11:54] <cose> hi @all
[11:54] <_jason> Fire-NR: are you following the wiki?
[11:54] <Jowi> coreyo: you should have a link in /etc/rcS.d/S10udev -> ../init.d/udev . see if it exist
[11:54] <cose> can anyone help me with my xorg.conf ?
[11:54] <Fire-NR> never saw anything on the wiki for it :|
[11:55] <Okay> my subtitle in divx

[11:55] <ecormier> anybody have any trouble with the fglrx upgrade today...I upgraded and now no opengl at all
[11:55] <_jason> ubotu: tell Fire-NR about ati
[11:55] <Fire-NR> what they are a load of crap?
[11:55] <SurfnKid> _jason got it thanks,
[11:56] <gambit> anybody know what dir downloads are put in when save to disk
[11:56] <SurfnKid> PORDO that im gonna have to learn to do too.
[11:56] <roostishaw> can anyone point me in the direction of a gide(or tell me if its that simple) to setting up samba to "see" (read/write) to/from my windows comps on the network?
[11:56] <_jason> gambit: try ~/Desktop, or ~, or ~/MyDownloads
[11:56] <SurfnKid> will these be permanently mounted at each bootup? or am i gonna have to mount NTFS every time
[11:56] <Fire-NR> ah thanks jason :)
[11:57] <Jowi> uboat: tell roostishaw about samba
[11:57] <Jowi> ubotu: : tell roostishaw about samba
[11:57] <_jason> SurfnKid: put it in your fstab to mount it everytime
[11:57] <rseward> anyone familar with using ndiswrapper on breezy?
[11:57] <Jaak> if i install ubuntu on my laptop, will it automaticly configure my FN keys?
[11:57] <Jowi> ah, autocomplete madness
[11:57] <torpedo|dog> roostishaw, you can just go to "Places > Connect to Server" or even "Places > Network servers" and choose Windows Network.
[11:57] <Sanne> roostishaw, the ubuntu starter guide on the help menu has helpful hints for samba
[11:57] <SurfnKid> right.. good idea
[11:57] <SurfnKid> man im learning so much already
[11:57] <gambit> ty jason
[11:57] <SurfnKid> ty jason for the help
[11:57] <PORDO> SurfnKid put the mounting applet on your panel.
[11:57] <Blue89> I have a linksys wireless g usb adapter. how do I get that to work in ubuntu?
[11:58] <PORDO> SurfnKid it should see the drive and give you the option to mount it.
[11:58] <Intune> how can it by that i can ping www.google.com, but opening it in firefox fails?
[11:58] <SurfnKid> right
[11:58] <rseward>  anyone familar with using ndiswrapper on breezy?
[11:58] <phyre-x> because firefox is setup to use a proxy that isnt there ?
[11:58] <Intune> no, proxy is disabled
[11:58] <phyre-x> umm, firewall ?
[11:58] <Intune> i'm using vmware with NAT though, but it worked until i rebooted for the first time
[11:59] <Intune> since then i can ping and resolve, but not open or whois and such
[11:59] <ecormier> did you try opening a web page in elinks (or a command line web browser)??
[11:59] <Blue89> Intune, can you try another browser, like dillo for example? I don't know about your situation, but that sounds useful?
[11:59] <Jaak> is Ubuntu 6.06 Desktop CD the LIVE CD?
[11:59] <roostishaw> torpedo|dog, there are 0 items under the Windows Network thing
[11:59] <Intune> couldn't get anything else to install because i use net install
[12:00] <torpedo|dog> roostishaw, hm. I'm in a bit deep then.
