[11:29] <eth01> and, it's also a lot more secure than what ftp is.. google proftpd ;)
[11:30] <tparcina> data that will be transfered are not private, and lots of Win users don't have ssh client installed
[11:30] <logixoul> joaopinto: ok does that include backports?
[11:30] <slck> hello
[11:30] <joaopinto> tparcina, neither they have an FTP client installed :P
[11:30] <eth01> tparcina: so?
[11:30] <ajeffreys> hi
[11:30] <slck> i always been having this problem with ubuntu: over putty and screen, mc ncurses draw wrong
[11:30] <neil_d> can you easily add  Gnome to a 'server' install and end up with something just like the 'desktop' version ?
[11:30] <eth01> tparcina: you don't need a ftp client installed to access stuff over ftp.
[11:31] <slck> is there anything i can do about it
[11:31] <tparcina> joaopinto: Internet Explorer - ftp://my.ftpsite.com
[11:31] <eth01> an internet browser, command prompt, my documents will do :-)
[11:31] <joaopinto> logixoul, my comment does not include backports, but you woul need to request it
[11:31] <joaopinto> tparcina, ok ok :P
[11:31] <logixoul> joaopinto: k, thanks :)
[11:31] <ajeffreys> slck what version of ubuntu do you have?
[11:31] <eth01> sigh.
[11:31] <ikonia> neil_d: it's better to use the desktop version
[11:31] <slck> ajeffreys any
[11:31] <eth01> if you think you know everything about FTP tparcina then you'll use SFTP.
[11:31] <joaopinto> neil_d, you can
[11:32] <eth01> obviously not, *ahem*
[11:32] <ajeffreys> what are you running now?
[11:32] <joaopinto> eth01, if it is not sensitive data, and there is no login involved.. there is not advantage on using SFTP
[11:32] <neil_d> joaopinto: how ?
[11:32] <tparcina> eth01: that's what I'm saying. For FTP on win they don't have to install anything, and for SFTP they would need to install aditional software
[11:32] <slck> i didnt install this
[11:32] <slck> how can i find out
[11:32] <joaopinto> neil_d, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[11:32] <ikonia> neil_d: use the desktop cd if you want a desktop
[11:32] <ikonia> neil_d: why are you using the server version ?
[11:32] <eth01> tparcina: ...
[11:32] <ikonia> neil_d: what is the driver for using the server version
[11:32] <neil_d> joaopinto: thanks.
[11:33] <eth01> tparcina: you don't need ftp clients to access stuff over ftp.
[11:33] <Dezine> At one point and time my driver was installable from "Hardware Drivers." Now I can't and installing the package doesn't work. I can't play any games or turn on advance appearance effects. I have an Nvidia 5900 FX/
[11:33] <neil_d> ikonia: setup of RAID etc.
[11:33] <joaopinto> ikonia, I am assuming he already installed from the server cd :P
[11:33] <eth01> you can use a command prompt, internet explorer, even my documents/my computer
[11:33] <eth01> shove it in the my address bar, and hey presto..
[11:33] <ajeffreys> slck go to this link: http://www.debianadmin.com/find-your-debian-or-ubuntu-linux-version-you-are-running.html
[11:33] <ikonia> neil_d: the desktop CD can do that
[11:33] <eth01> (unless group policys have been applied in which case you fail)
[11:33] <neil_d> ikonia: via the install script ?
[11:34] <joaopinto> eth01, erm, how does the command line ftp awareness improves the solution for the problem ?
[11:34] <slck> dapper Ubuntu 6.06.2 LTS
[11:34] <tparcina> eth01: that's what I'm saying as well
[11:34] <eth01> joaoptine: to access FTP, yes, you can.
[11:34] <eth01> command prompt -> telnet?
[11:34] <eth01> telnet -> ftp
[11:34] <eth01> del :-)
[11:34] <joaopinto> eth01, and what is the advantage ?
[11:35] <eth01> joapinto: there is no advantage on this matter.
[11:35] <slck> its an Ubuntu 6.06.2 LTS Dapper ajeffreys
[11:35] <joaopinto> I am perfectly aware of the ftp capabilities, I just don't see on does that provide any help to tparcina
[11:35] <ajeffreys> slck In that case you should probably go here: http://www.ubuntu.com/GetUbuntu/download and download the latest version (8.04). as that is much more up to date
[11:35] <eth01> i'm talking about ways in which to access ftp instead of using an actual ftp client.
[11:35] <joaopinto> on how
[11:35] <eth01> if you actually understood what i said, you'd know that.
[11:35] <joaopinto> tparcina, sudo apt-get install vsftpd :)
[11:35] <slck> wait
[11:35] <slck> you mean i better reinstall the whole server because my mc doesnt draw well?
[11:36] <eth01> tparcina: :/
[11:36] <slck> it must be something with the terminal
[11:36] <joaopinto> slck, your what ?
[11:36] <slck> maybe if i upgrade ncurses or mc
[11:36] <isle85> hello, I try to use Terminal server Client, but the protocol "vnc" is not available. HOw do I do to make it choosable ?
[11:36] <joaopinto> what's mc ?
[11:37] <slck> midnight commander... a tool for console
[11:37] <ajeffreys> slck Possibly, although I don't have experience with the server edition.
[11:37] <eth01> a basic simple file viewer etc
[11:37] <eth01> pretty horrid too
[11:37] <slck> its old.. its the equivalent of dos's norton commander
[11:37] <ajeffreys> slck Have you tried the official forums: http://ubuntuforums.org/index.php You may find more answers there.
[11:37] <slck> handy for non-X users
[11:38] <slck> i'll search ajeffreys thanks
[11:38] <joaopinto> slck, is the TERM variable properly set ?
[11:38] <joaopinto> mc works fine here
[11:38] <joaopinto> which terminal type are you using ?
[11:38] <slck> screen
[11:38] <slck> i tried vt100
[11:39] <slck> i know that localy it runs ok
[11:39] <joaopinto> erm, I mean on the client side.. what is the software.. from linux using ssh, or windows using putty ?
[11:39] <slck> as far as i saw on google
[11:39] <slck> its from screen that messes up
[11:39] <slck> and it happens on debian too
[11:39] <slck> its a putty
[11:39] <joaopinto> so that an "mc" issue
[11:39] <joaopinto> thats
[11:40] <slck> maybe i should compile my own mc
[11:40] <joaopinto> slck, why would that help ?
[11:40] <KoolD> whats the command to view the mounted drives?
[11:40] <legend2440> KoolD: mount

[11:41] <KoolD> hey thanks
[11:41] <ubunubi> !realtek
[11:42] <isle85> who could help about vnc and terminal client server ?
[11:42] <slck> if its an mc issue.. joeopinto ...
[11:42] <slck> what else do you suggest
[11:43] <joaopinto> slck, I don't see much point in using screen with mc
[11:43] <arvind_khadri> can i install packages burnt on a cd using aptoncd
[11:43] <slck> hmm
[11:43] <joaopinto> mc is something that you use in a short period of time.. why do you need it running from screen ?
[11:43] <bazhang> arvind_khadri, sure
[11:43] <slck> why?
[11:43] <slck> i use screen all the time
[11:43] <joaopinto> screen is commonly used for long run jobs
[11:43] <lakis1982> hiii..  i have downloaded a racing game for linux called    racer .... tha file was  in    .run format and i installed it .... now how can i uninstall the game ????
[11:43] <slck> not only
[11:44] <slck> screen i use to have multiple virtual consoles over 1 ssh connection
[11:44] <joaopinto> and why do you screen all the time ?
[11:44] <slck> and from 1 screen
[11:44] <slck> i run ssh to other boxes
[11:44] <slck> and in them other screens
[11:44] <ciacon> hi folks - I have a pretty muddeld up list of files, where I want to have a standard name contvention... 000x000.png -> 780x780.png... sadly the files are like this --> 20x20 30x30 and so on.... can someone lend me a hand?? renamig 1600 files by hand is a bummer... for a list of the files to be rename please refer to this:    http://ciacon.dyndns.org:8001/files.txt
[11:44] <slck> so essentialy
[11:44] <slck> i attach to 1 screen
[11:44] <FloodBot1> slck: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:44] <joaopinto> ok, you are using it as mutiplexer
[11:44] <slck> and have all my shells in a keystrokes reach
[11:45] <slck> screen is much more than just to run stuff detouched
[11:45] <eth01> woah
[11:45] <slck> i use it as a virtual console yes
[11:45] <eth01> go easy on the enter
[11:45] <DJones> slck: I've just tried mc via putty, its usable, but some of the formatting isn't right, mainly what I would expect to see as lines between the windows come out as 'odd' characters, but I get similar things in irssi over putty as well, some foreign language comments don't render properly either
[11:45] <joaopinto> slck, it depends on who uses it... for me it is only to run stuff detouched.. for the rest I do like to have each connection in a tab :)
[11:45] <slck> yes DJones
[11:46] <eth01> DJones: it's crap.
[11:46]  * eth01 knew this 3 years ago....
[11:46] <slck> mc saves keystrokes
[11:46] <orly_owl> i killed gnome-screensaver but my screen is still black, how can i fix it? (ubuntu hardy)
[11:46] <Tomate> WntuG?
[11:47] <eth01> aye, but you can achieve the same by using rm, mv, nano et cetera
[11:47] <eth01> AND, it's less confusing.
[11:47] <soulchild> HI all,... is there a way to change the green color of  username@machine to red in bash ???
[11:47] <eth01> soulchild: #bash
[11:47] <Dr_willis> soulchild,   google for the 'bash prompt howto' its easialy changed
[11:47] <Dr_willis> and thers dozens of other neat tricks ya can do
[11:48] <slck> i suspect it may have to do something with ncurses lib DJones
[11:49] <erkanea> hi everyone, i have installed vncserver with this guide: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=197964, when i do 'vncviewer localhost:1' on the server i get connection reset by peer error, anyone know what im missing?
[11:49] <slck> the builds of it that come with debian and ubuntu
[11:49] <tkersten> eep
[11:50] <isle85> hello, I do I do to make "Terminal Server Client" to offer "VNC" as protocol in its pulldown menu ?
[11:50] <DJones> slck: Not sure what causes it, although I'd be tempted to say its a putty issue as using ssh on an ubuntu machine doesn't cause the same problem, so seems to be a putty/windows issue
[11:50] <eth01> slck: it's not ncurses
[11:51] <lakis1982> hiii..  i have downloaded a racing game for linux called    racer .... tha file was  in    .run format and i installed it .... now how can i uninstall the game ????
[11:51] <eth01> lakis1982: we heard you the first time.
[11:52] <joaopinto> lakis1982, you need to figure where it was installed, how are you starting the game ?
[11:53] <lakis1982> its intalled in /usr/local/games/racer
[11:53] <joaopinto> so you will need to remove it manually
[11:53] <lakis1982> in there ther exists a file named uninstall and its a shell script
[11:53] <joaopinto> sudo rm -rf /usr/local/games/racer
[11:54] <joaopinto> I would remove it manually instead of using the uninstall script :P
[11:54] <lakis1982> you mean just go there and send the dir to trash
[11:54] <joaopinto> yes
[11:54] <lakis1982> ?
[11:55] <enzo> ls
[11:55] <lakis1982> it doesnt affect anyu other directories
[11:55] <enzo> oups
[11:55] <joaopinto> since the install usually only extracts the dir
[11:55] <lakis1982> game is installed just in one place?
[11:55] <unohu> lakis1982: it is better to use the uninstall script.......
[11:55] <joaopinto> lakis1982, usually it does not.. at least.. for games
[11:55] <lakis1982> the installed was    a   .run    file
[11:55] <joaopinto> unohu, you are assuming that is safe to use the uninstall script ;)
[11:56] <joaopinto> lakis1982, a .run file is just a script. it could have installed files anywhere, but usually game packages are self contained into a single dir
[11:56] <unohu> joaopinto: : if the .run was safe to install...then why not? :-) but its always better to go thru it as you said ......

[11:59] <joaopinto> deadsnake, have you checked the dmesg output ?
[12:00] <joaopinto> angelo, why do you need to upgrade pidgin ? You would be safer to keep with the repositories version...
[12:00] <deadsnake> joaopinto, no I havent, wheres that?
[12:00] <unohu> deadsnake: are you dualbooting?
[12:00] <joaopinto> deadsnake, after the mount just type "dmesg" , on the terminal, it may provide you some hint on the problem
[12:00] <deadsnake> unohu, yes i am
[12:01] <joaopinto> unclean shutdown on the windows side ?
[12:01] <MonkeyC> helo
[12:01] <unohu> deadsnake: so u might have hibernated in vista/xp .... this may sometime mark the ntfs partitions as active or smthing..so it wont mount
[12:02] <unohu> deadsnake: so check if you have shutdown......
[12:02] <deadsnake> unohu: no, i definately havent hybernated in vista.

[12:10] <kadakas> bazhang: yeah, from shipit
[12:10] <unohu> deadsnake: dont see anything.....are you able to access the drive from windows?

[12:20] <magnetron> LLMP, did you even try it?
[12:20] <LLMP> i cant find that option thats why i am asking if there was a notehr one
[12:20] <magnetron> LLMP, it's the only one
[12:20] <LLMP> i am scared that i will mess up
[12:20] <mesiox> magnetron: how do i open it atleast?
[12:20] <LLMP> i started linux less than 2 days ago
[12:21] <magnetron> mesiox, it's a command line tool
[12:21] <Pici> LLMP: No one is going to hold it against you if you need to go to windows to use TI Connect.
[12:21] <magnetron> mesiox, go check the web page for instructions
[12:21] <whalesalad> dns53: having a hard time finding that def file, do you know where it might be?
[12:22] <joaopinto> whalesalad, could explain what are you trying to achieve ? What is the software you want to change the configuration from ?
[12:22] <LLMP> I dont want to go back to Windows, for once my laptop did not crash
[12:22] <whalesalad> had a problem a while back where svn and trac weren't playing nice for some reason. ended up having to compile from source with swig and apr and a few other things (was previously using apt-get method) but right now I get errors when trying to checkout things such as wordpress (things over http://). Doing an svn --version prints out that the ra_dav module is not enabled, which allows http and https repo access. Is there a configure param that I can use
[12:23] <joaopinto> whalesalad, uh ? the ubuntu svn does support getting from http and https based svn repositories
[12:23] <whalesalad> joaopinto: I was told in the svn channel that the neon lib was required, but it's currently installed. So now I'm looking at whether or not I need to define the path to neon. But, would be nice to see how ubuntu does the configure line in apt-get
[12:23] <fongkwan> I'm completely miserable right now.  To make the long story short, someone suggested that I should switch from <IP_ADDRESS>-386 to <IP_ADDRESS>-generic, after the switch my wireless usb stopped working.  The driver it used before was zd1211rw
[12:23] <whalesalad> joaopinto: my problem was with svn playing nice with trac. currently, having installed svn from source, I am having a problem becuase ra_dav support isn't enabled
[12:23] <idefix_> how can we fix the open source IcedTea plugin?
[12:24] <fongkwan> Can someone please. i beg, help me revive my wireless connectiviity?
[12:24] <joaopinto> whalesalad, why did you install svn from the source in the first place ? That could your problem...
[12:24] <unohu> fongkwan: details please
[12:25] <whalesalad> joaopinto: not sure why everyone is so opposed to compiling from source, it's as though doing things like that is taboo. apt-get doesn't work all of the time :)
[12:25] <joaopinto> whalesalad, because most people which try to do it, do not have the required skills and usually get into troubles.. it seems to be your case
[12:25] <bazhang> idefix_, file a bug report
[12:25] <unohu> fongkwan:  check if the kernel module for ur driver is loaded...
[12:26] <idefix_> bazhang are you Chinese?
[12:26] <joaopinto> whalesalad, not to mention, that it does not usually bring anything new
[12:26] <fongkwan> unohu:  how?
[12:26] <dns53> whalesalad look under /debian from the source i'm not sure what file has the config options
[12:26] <cakey> check if your ping is over 9000
[12:26] <LLMP> this is sad but what is the command to download Tilp2?
[12:26] <unohu> fongkwan: lsmod
[12:26] <idefix_> !bug report
[12:26] <idefix_> !bugreport
[12:26] <bazhang> !bugs
[12:26] <whalesalad> joaopinto: found the fix, thanks for your help, or lack thereof. it would be nice if certain individuals would just assume people are smart sometimes, rather than the oppsite. lataz guys. thanks dns53
[12:27] <Pici> LLMP: sudo apt-get install tilp2   or use your favorite package manager
[12:27] <bazhang> ubottu lag

[12:28] <remoteCTR1> i am trying to compile OTR encryption for pidgin as they disabled the icq part of it i had to do it new and it says:
[12:28] <remoteCTR1> checking for EXTRA... configure: error: Package requirements (glib-2.0 >= 2.6 gtk+-2.0 >= 2.6 pidgin >= 2.0 purple >= 2.0) were not met:
[12:28] <remoteCTR1> No package 'pidgin' found
[12:28] <remoteCTR1> No package 'purple' found
[12:28] <joaopinto> remoteCTR1, you need libpurple dev
[12:28] <fongkwan> unohu apparently,  zd1211rw    56864     0
[12:29] <dns53> remoteCTR1 try running apt-get build-dep pidgin to get the dependencies
[12:29] <remoteCTR1> joaopinto: so the version blabla is to be ignored?
[12:29] <ikonia> remoteCTR1: thats pkg_config issues
[12:29] <Pa0l0> c'è qualche italiano
[12:29] <Starnestommy> remoteCTR1: you need libpurple-dev and pidgin-dev
[12:29] <ikonia> remoteCTR1: just sit tight, ubuntu will release an updated package shortly
[12:29] <remoteCTR1> hehe hi there Starnestommy, old battelship:)

[12:30] <bazhang> quantumelixir, gnome?
[12:30] <ikonia> remoteCTR1: the package is already built and available

[12:30] <remoteCTR1> bazhang: if that was the one that i just installed two hours ago it dindt help
[12:30] <quantumelixir> bazhang: the CHM viewer for gnome
[12:30] <Pici> quantumelixir: oh, wait, I'm thinking of something else, nevermind me
[12:30] <quantumelixir> Pici: like?
[12:31] <bazhang> quantumelixir, what about comix
[12:31] <quantumelixir> bazhang: whats that?
[12:31] <bazhang> quantumelixir, also chm viewer
[12:31] <Pici> bazhang: Is it? /me makes note
[12:31] <pogztimz> hiii. is there a way i can install iTALC on Dapper release?
[12:32] <quantumelixir> bazhang: really? It doesnt say so
[12:32] <quantumelixir> bazhang: you sure about this?
[12:32] <bazhang> quantumelixir, what does apt-cache search chm turn up
[12:32] <unohu> fongkwan: it seems like the driver has some problems in hardy..check the ubuntu forums...they have some solutions....
[12:33] <remoteCTR1> Starnestommy: yeah, that was it, libpurple-dev did the trick, thanks man!
[12:33] <fongkwan> unohu, one thing may or may not be worth mentioning, prior to this, and if i remember correctly, ifconfigure before showed my wireless device as wlan0
[12:33] <bazhang> quantumelixir, err apt-cache search comic sorry (have it installed and it works well-->comix)
[12:34] <mahesh> <new user> help me to install a .tar.gz package in ubuntu please!!
[12:34] <remoteCTR1> ok, gotta restsart pidgin, brb
[12:34] <bazhang> mahesh, what package
[12:34] <Starnestommy> mahesh: extract it then read the INSTALL and README files in it
[12:34] <LLMP> For Tilp2 they dont tell u how to work it
[12:34] <legend2440> quantumelixir: kchmviewer-nokde   is much better than gnochm  IMHO
[12:34] <LLMP> i read the readme but nm there
[12:35] <mahesh> bazhang: its a flash player package..how to install it
[12:35] <opt1k> hey, how to upgrade qt3 to qt4
[12:35] <opt1k> ?
[12:35] <neosix> Hello! Is there a way to change icon size in xfce-menu on panel?  I tryed with .gtkrc-2.0 but nothing...
[12:35] <bazhang> mahesh, from synaptic
[12:35] <Starnestommy> mahesh: look for flashplugin in synaptic
[12:36] <fongkwan> unohu, now its not there.  Are you telling me this problem with zd1211rw just appeared?   I mean i have been using zd1211rw for my TP-LINK-WN322G for the past 3 months w/o a problem (Prior the switch from 2.6.24-16-386 -> <IP_ADDRESS>-generic)
[12:36] <bazhang> mahesh, always look in ubuntu repos first
[12:36] <mahesh> bazhang: ok
[12:36] <dns53> mahesh install flashplugin-nonfree
[12:36] <pogztimz> is it possible to install iTALC on Dapper Drake release? anyone pls..
[12:37] <opt1k> how to upgrade qt3 to qt4?
[12:37] <mahesh> starnestommy : synaptic showed me gnash plugin but even after installing it iam not able to view youtube videos
[12:37] <Pici> pogztimz: what is italc?
[12:37] <dns53> you may also want to install libflashsupport as well to get the audio to work better
[12:37] <mahesh> bazhang: synaptic showed me gnash plugin but even after installing it iam not able to view youtube videos
[12:37] <Starnestommy> mahesh: what about the flashplugin-nonfree package in the multiverse repository?
[12:37] <hugh> anyone got the flash player working for bbc iplayer?
[12:37] <the-fafa> how do i enable alsa completely in favour of other sound stuff?
[12:38] <pogztimz> TALC is a use- and powerful didactical tool for teachers. It lets you view and control other computers in your network in several ways
[12:38] <Starnestommy> pogztimz: you'll need to either compile it yourself or upgrade ubuntu
[12:38] <eth01> heh
[12:38] <cherva> I have an NTFS drive and when I mount it an icon appears on my desktop ... how can I rename it because I don't want to see "Windows" on my desktop :) there is no windows there it's just an NTFS ...
[12:38] <hugh> i downloaded the rpm, converted it to .deb with alien and installed it but restarting ff3 it doesn't have the plug in?!..
[12:38] <pogztimz> eerrr. my machine cant support higher release of ubuntu
[12:38] <mahesh> starnestommy : where to find that flashplugin-nonfree
[12:38] <Starnestommy> hugh: alien often doesn't transform packages correctly
[12:39] <bazhang> hugh the rpm? that is not the way to go.
[12:39] <mahesh> starnestommy : i was searching for it but didnt get
[12:39] <Starnestommy> mahesh: make sure that the multiversr repository is enabled in System > Administration > Software sources
[12:39] <LLMP> does anyone know how does tilp2 work
[12:39] <hugh> ah, i see. i'll try with the tar.gz then
 just type this into your terminal. sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[12:39] <jamus> what up do i need for web streams (like u tube for exmpl)
[12:39] <Starnestommy> mahesh: multiverse, not multiversr
[12:39] <LLMP> i plug in my caculater and nm happens
[12:39] <jamus> app**
[12:39] <Starnestommy> jamus: flash
[12:39] <fongkwan> unohu, can you direct me to the link you're reading it from?
[12:39] <bazhang> jamus, downloaded?
[12:39] <jamus> right ...tnx
[12:39] <dns53> mahesh you need to enable the universe / multiverse repo as it is not free
[12:39] <opt1k> how do i update to Qt 4 development package??
[12:40] <mahesh> starnestommy : multiverse is enabled already
[12:40] <Starnestommy> opt1k: sudo apt-get install libqt4-core ?
[12:40] <ubunubi> cherva: you sitll need your ? answered?
[12:40] <opt1k> Starnestommy: tx, didn't know the name of the package
[12:40] <Starnestommy> mahesh: it might be another package with flash in its name
[12:40] <cherva> ubunubi: yes
[12:40] <Starnestommy> opt1k: it might also be libqt4-dev
[12:41] <fongkwan> unohu,  I mean i have been using zd1211rw for the past 3 months w/o a problem before i made the swtich from 2.6.24-16-386 -> 2.6.24-18-generic
[12:41] <opt1k> Starnestommy: thanks!
[12:41] <mahesh> starnestommy : i didnt get u, pardon
[12:41] <dns53> mahesh you need flashplugin-nonfree and libflashsupport for pulse audio support
[12:41] <bazhang> quantumelixir, my mistake; gnochm is what you want; apparenly it uses sans font
[12:41] <ubunubi> cherva:: if you have ntfsprogs installed (should be by default)  then   sudo ntfslabel /dev/DEVICE NameYouWantToAppearInstead
[12:41] <bazhang> quantumelixir, was thinking of cbz files
[12:41] <ubunubi> cherva:: replacing device with your partition/drive that is showing up as Windows
[12:42] <cherva> ubunubi: sec to try
[12:42] <mahesh> dns53:: where to get this libflashsupport and flashplugin-nonfree???
[12:42] <Pici> mahesh: sudo apt-get install libflashsupport flashplugin-nonfree
[12:42] <ubunubi> cherva:: then if you want the name change to take effect immediately, unmount then remount that parition//drive
[12:42] <bazhang> mahesh, enable the repo and install
[12:42] <dns53> mahesh enable the main, restricted, universe and multiverse repo's
 dude. just type it in ur terminal. "sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree"
[12:44] <hugh> installed flashplayer using the tar.gz - still no dice.  any ideas?
[12:44] <bazhang> hugh dont install it that way
[12:44] <Saftool> hello all
[12:45] <hugh> bazhang: k, how?
[12:45] <Saftool> is there anyway to use ubuntu server in a windows env? :)  how do i install that?
[12:45] <Pici> hugh: Is there any reason you arent using the packages in the repositories?
[12:45] <Pici> Saftool: What do you mean?  Like wubi?
[12:45] <bazhang> hugh look at all the instructions for mahesh above
[12:45] <hugh> Pici: following instructions from website
[12:46] <bazhang> hugh always look in ubuntu software repositories first
[12:46] <Saftool> Pici:I just installed it and it only went to command line not xwin etc.. i would rathe rpoint and click to configure stuff than write code i dont know :(
[12:46] <Dezine> I can't get my video driver to install from Hardware Drivers. After I restart and it tries to load it fails and I have to restart.
[12:46] <hugh> bazhang: righto
[12:46] <opt1k> i upgraded to qt4, and i try to compile smplayer, and now i get this error: uic: File generated with too recent version of Qt Designer (4.0 vs. 3.3.8b)
[12:46] <mahesh> pogztimz: it says flashplugin-nonfree package not available
[12:47] <bazhang> hugh enable the main restricted universe and multiverse repos then refresh and install
[12:47] <dns53> mahesh enable the restricted repo and update the sources
[12:47] <unohu> fongkwan: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/31569
[12:47] <bazhang> mahesh, you need to refresh frist
[12:47] <cherva> ubunubi: I did this ( ntfsprogs wasn't installed ), I unmounted it, typed sudo ntfslabel /dev/sda1 Storage and when I mount it again it is still windows....
[12:47] <Bergcube> How do I go about to get another package included in the respositories for the next release?
[12:48] <bazhang> Bergcube, which package
[12:48] <Pici> Saftool: Oh.  You mean xwindows.  Ubuntu server doesn't come with a GUI by default.  You can install the ubuntu-desktop metapackage, but it doesnt have any real GUI tools for configuring the server stuff... it would just be using Gedit to modify files instead of nano/vi
[12:48] <ubunubi> cherva:: you're sure sda1 is the right partition ?
[12:48] <cherva> ubunubi: yes
 what is ur video adapter?
[12:48] <unohu> !backports ! Bergcube
[12:48] <Dezine> I have an Nvidia 5900 FX
[12:48] <dns53> Bergcube become a motu (master of the universe) and submit a package
[12:48] <unohu> !backport ! Bergcube
[12:48] <Pici> !newpackage | Bergcube
[12:48] <jamus> i had conflict with gnash in webstreams i remuved it and now its working fine (thanx for help)
[12:48] <Bergcube> bazhang~  GnoFract  -  http://gnofract4d.sourceforge.net/
[12:48] <opt1k> i upgraded to qt4, and i try to compile smplayer, and now i get this error: uic: File generated with too recent version of Qt Designer (4.0 vs. 3.3.8b), any help?
[12:48] <mutaku> need help getting sound to work in 8.04
[12:48] <bazhang> unohu, use the pipe | :)
[12:48] <hugh> now i've installed flashplayer for ff3 three different ways and no dice still - sigh
[12:48] <ubunubi> cherva:: pastebin your /etc/fstab
[12:48] <unohu> !backport | Bergcube
[12:48] <Pici> unohu: its not !backports hes looking for anyway though
[12:49] <cherva> ubunubi: In Gparted the label is changed
[12:49] <ubunubi> cherva:: then most likely you need to reboot for the change to take effect
[12:49] <cherva> ubunubi: ok I'll restart
[12:49] <surreal> Does anyone know if a 1gig memory stick will be enough to install / run ubuntu on?
[12:50] <Pici> surreal: definitely
[12:50] <Dezine> surreal, that's what I have
[12:50] <bazhang> hugh try it the ubuntu way outlined above
[12:50] <Saftool> Pici: oh ..... that woudl be tough configuring a firewall liek that :(
[12:50] <surreal> kk, the download is 700 megs was just wondering ^_-
[12:50] <mahesh> bazhang: i did as u said now its downloading...... thankyou dude
[12:50] <hugh> bazhang: ah, i missed those instructions - i just tried it from synaptic
[12:50] <knightwise> i have a problem where i cannot automatically backup files from an sshfs mounted folder
[12:50] <bazhang> mahesh, nice :)
[12:50] <Dezine> surreal, 1 gig memory? You mean hd?
[12:50] <Pici> Saftool: Well, firestarter is a GUI available for gnome for configuring the firewall...
[12:50] <mahesh> pogztimz: thankyou
[12:51] <surreal> a 1 gig memory stick.. usb key.. flash drive w/e you call it
[12:51] <Pici> Saftool: I was thinking more along the lines of there not being an apache configurator or similar.
[12:51] <mahesh> dns53:: i got it thanks
 no problem
[12:51] <Saftool> cool better get started on reading the howto then :)
[12:51] <Bergcube> After looking at the links:  So to sum it up:  The absolutely only possible way is "RTFM and do it yourself".  There is in other words nobody that are already able to do this one could actually TALK with or get gelp from.
[12:52] <Dezine> surreal, I suppose that's enough, probably the minimum
[12:52] <dns53> Bergcube ask around in the motu channel
[12:52] <pogztimz> guys i really need iTALC installed on Dapper Drake. :) i know u guys know how. so pls help me.. lol
[12:52] <mutaku> get weird echo effect from sound in xvid, divx, and youtube. help?
[12:52] <Saftool> Pici: it is so cool that from command line i got it to download and install stuff :) sudo apt-get
 :)
[12:53] <Pici> Bergcube: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/NewPackages  specifically the "Requesting a new package for Ubuntu" should sort you out.
[12:53] <surreal> does anyone here run ubuntu off of a flash drive?
[12:53] <cherva> ubunubi: the restart helped thanks
[12:53] <ubunubi> !anyone | surreal
[12:53] <ubunubi> cherva:: grats
[12:53] <Bergcube> Pici~  Thanks you so much.  That was genuinely helpful.
[12:54] <surreal> just wondering if a 1gig flash stick is enough to install ubuntu on and figured people that would know are ones that run ubuntu off of a flash drive ^_^
[12:54] <hugh> yay - got flashplayer-nonfree going :)_
[12:54] <legend2440> Bergcube: gnofract4d_3.9-1ubuntu1_i386.deb  doesn't work?
 finally.. gratz :)
[12:54] <ubunubi> surreal:: i'm pretty sure my base install was larger than 1gb..so you might have to do a minimal install from the alternate cd, then install just the packages you need
[12:55] <Pici> surreal: I havent read it, but https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent might have the info you seek
[12:55] <ubunubi> surreal: ubuntu (with gnome) isn't really designed to have that small of a footprint by default since it's a full featured desktop environment. Xubuntu might be a bit smaller
[12:55] <Bergcube> legend2440~  I have no idea.  It does noe show up in my Synaptic.  And I really thought I had all the respositories enabled.
[12:56] <Bergcube> legend2440~  Also, searching on packages.ubuntu.com for "gnofract" gives nothing.
[12:56] <legend2440> Bergcube: its not in repos but you can download it   at   http://sourceforge.net/project/platformdownload.php?group_id=785
[12:57] <Bergcube> legend2440~  Ah, sure.  But then I might as well complie it myself.  Either way it is a hassle every time there is an update.  Better get it into the respositories once than to download a standalone version over and over.
[12:59] <ubunubi> Bergcube: there are *.deb files http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=785 in it's sourceforge dl section for ubuntu
[12:59] <ubunubi> Bergcube: up to 3.9
[13:00] <kamaly> hello guys
[13:00] <ubunubi> Bergcube: whoops sorry. redundant info from legend
[13:01] <Bergcube> ubuntulog~  Yes, I know.  And that is not the point, and that was not my query.  If I really _want_to_ I can get that working or as I said compile it from source.  But that is a daft and unelegant solution, and it would be far better to have it in the repos.  So my wish is not to get Gnofract working: I can do that if a bother living through the hassle.  My wish is to get it into the repo.  And therefore I asked about how one does that.
[13:02] <ubunubi> Bergcube: afaik the program maintainer has to apply to get it put in repo..or host their own PPA repo that you can add to your sources.list
[13:02] <ubunubi> Bergcube: self-hosted PPA repo's are the easiest solution for the maintainer normally
[13:02] <kamaly> hi there...
[13:04] <ubunubi> !paa
[13:04] <ubunubi> !ppa
[13:04] <kamaly> have a small hitch guys..i have an ubuntu mirror on my network...i want to install an application on the client machines automatically without physically doing "apt-get install~"..are there any workarounds...your views r welcome pls...??
[13:05] <joaopinto> kamaly, ssh :) ?
[13:05] <|piter> HELLO
[13:05] <kamaly> ssh is good...prob is these machines are many n on dhcp...lots of work...
[13:05] <robbubuntu> i really need help installing a driver
[13:06] <joaopinto> install a script on them to fetch packages to be installed from a server ?
[13:06] <|piter> I don't have any prolem with Ubuntu. It works fine! I just came here to say hello! :)
[13:06] <kamaly> want an application that i can install on server....point the packages i want installed on the clients....install the client side package that will receive the arguments from server...
[13:06] <offline> hello too piter
[13:06] <offline> :D
[13:07] <robbubuntu> i have a usb wireless device with a linux driver on the CD that came with its box. I dont have internet, how do i install it??? pleasee
[13:08] <robbubuntu> i have a usb wireless device with a linux driver on the CD that came with its box. I dont have internet, how do i install it??? pleasee
[13:08] <joaopinto> kamaly, that can easily be done with scripting, I am not aware of an existing utility for doing that
[13:09] <robbubuntu>  i have a usb wireless device with a linux driver on the CD that came with its box. I dont have internet, how do i install it??? pleasee
[13:09] <xevin> hello
[13:09] <kamaly> yes man...
[13:09] <xevin> i have a important question, regarding SPM..
[13:10] <xevin> Synaptic Package Manager
[13:10] <kamaly> i had a look @ sourceforge...no nice tools to do it...
[13:10] <legend2440> robbubuntu: is there an install or reame file on the CD that give instructions?
[13:10] <xevin> ubuntu hardy,,
[13:10] <legend2440> robbubuntu: is there an install or readme file on the CD that give instructions?
[13:10] <xevin> there are updates, should i always do update everytime an update pop-ups?
[13:10] <ubunubi> xevin:: type your stuff in one big block, don't send it all as separate lines please
[13:11] <joaopinto> kamaly, on the server you have an APT mirror, and all the clients are setup to use that mirror, right ?
[13:11] <xevin> oops! sorry.
[13:11] <ubunubi> xevin:: you should always do the updates marked as _critical security updates_...the others are up to you
[13:11] <ciacon> someway I can't wrap my mind arround this... can someone give me a hint for the following: I have 1600 files that are in order but must be split (at best into folders) in groups of 40 - can someone lend me a hand?
[13:11] <xevin> ubunubi: up to me, means, dangerous?
[13:12] <xevin> its like, ubuntu generic kernel, and some hardware abstraction layer
[13:12] <ubunubi> xevin:: not necessarily. if everything on your system is working the way you want, the "recommended" updates can wait until the next version if you want to guarantee less incompatibilities. however if something is not functioning to your satisfaction and there is a recommended update that says it could potentially fix that issue, then by all means install it
[13:13] <xevin> ubunubi: thanks, this is my first use of *nix..
[13:15] <Ayabara> I want to tell Eclipse to use the sun-java that I installed. What file should I feed to it instead of /usr/bin/java?
[13:15] <jamus> good root bot anybody?
[13:15] <remoteCTR1> how do i set a key combination to lock the screen?
[13:15] <joaopinto> Ayabara, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EclipseIDE
[13:16] <geeksauce> how do i make use of the themes included with emerald?
[13:16] <remoteCTR1> geeksauce: call emerald-theme-manager in console
[13:17] <Ayabara> joaopinto, thanks
[13:17] <geeksauce> remoteCTR1, i did, however i can't seem to figure out how to apply the themes
[13:17] <legend2440> xevin: since there is no rollback feature i always have a backup of partition  using partimage.  then if something goes wrong i can restore to previous condition
[13:17] <tommy123> hi! i have sort of a problem. im using livecd right now, and i have installed the system. but i have a really important file (modem-driver) that i need to transfer to my installed system. if i reboot, that file will be lost.
[13:17] <xel_> hmm
[13:18] <remoteCTR1> geeksauce: as soon ans you choose one its already applied
[13:18] <geeksauce> remoteCTR1, nothing looks any different though
[13:19] <remoteCTR1> tommy123: now why would that be? store it in the harrdisk like in /home/yourUser
[13:19] <xevin> legend2440: yeah i did that, time is just critical for me to reinstall / restore stuff.. but i guess thats the way it is if it breaks it breaks "Sorry, TY"
[13:19] <remoteCTR1> geeksauce: have you imported themes or are you talking about changing the engine on the edit themes tab?
[13:20] <Pizarro> I'm using Evolution, and I want to change the font size for the Inbox window, but I didn't find any option for that, Can anyone help me?
[13:20] <geeksauce> remoteCTR1, i'm on the "themes" tab, just trying to select a different theme
[13:20] <potato> if i install ubuntu on my XP system, is it stil posibleto make it dual-boot, but have XP as the main os?
[13:21] <remoteCTR1> ok so i guess you dont have an empty field there but you have imported some themes?
[13:21] <potato> im afraid if i install ubuntu, it will always boot to ubuntu.
[13:21] <remoteCTR1> geeksauce: ok so i guess you dont have an empty field there but you have imported some themes?
[13:21] <joaopinto> potato, if you choose not to delete your windows partition, yes, you will be able to dual boot
[13:22] <geeksauce> remoteCTR1, i believe they were there to begin with
[13:22] <remoteCTR1> potato: if you install ubuntu a boot loader named grub is being installed alongside, if you have a windows installation ob that computer grub creates a menu that allows you to boot both of them
[13:22] <xevin> whats the next release in ubuntu?
[13:22] <awras> #linuxac
[13:22] <tommy123> remoteCTR1:  yeah i thought i could mount my installed system while im using the livecd. i have 4 partition (boot,swap,root,home). i've tried to mount all of them without error.. but i cant see any file?! (sudo mount /dev/sda4 /mnt/home -v -o rw) gives no error.
[13:22] <potato> can i make the menu choose xp by default?
[13:23] <remoteCTR1> geeksauce: i doubt that... anyways if you click (or doubleclick) one the theme should change
[13:23] <xubuntuuser> potato: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst if you are using grub. Edit default=* line (*: number of xp)
[13:23] <remoteCTR1> geeksauce: in case you are running emerald, ever done emerald --replace?
[13:23] <potato> shcweeett
[13:23] <potato> thnx =p
[13:23] <geirha> !intrepid | xevin
[13:24] <geeksauce> remoteCTR1, no, should i try that now?
[13:24] <remoteCTR1> tommy123: and what happens if you cd /mnt/home?
[13:24] <anabolix> can someone help me to make shift and control work in warcraft 3?
[13:24] <remoteCTR1> geeksauce: if you never did thaat you are probably still running metacities, in that case you will of course not see much change when editing emerald themes...
[13:24] <jbroome> .
[13:24] <BoltClock> is there any way of syncing between ubuntu and windows mobile 6.1?
[13:25] <xevin> im using mint, which is from ubuntu hardy, does ubuntu hardy it self, has the compiz installed by default?
[13:25] <geeksauce> remoteCTR1, yep that solved it.  thanks!  by the way, what's metacities?
[13:25] <geirha> xevin: yes
[13:25] <mib> hi.how can i execute a package with .deb
[13:25] <mib> pls help
[13:25] <joaopinto> xevin, yes, but for mint you really should use their support resources
[13:25] <napsy_> Hello. Will I be able to create a fully entrypted home partition using the hardy alternate installation?
[13:26] <napsy_> *encrypted
[13:26] <joaopinto> mib, that is not an executable, is an installation package
[13:26] <joaopinto> mib, and you should randomly install .deb packages
[13:26] <BoltClock> !deb | mib
[13:26] <tommy123> remoteCTR1: works fine, but then when i use "ls" i cant see anything. and it should be a lost+found folder because im using ext3. any ideas why i cant see anything?
[13:26] <remoteCTR1> geeksauce: metacity is the standard window decoraator, emerald is an alternative
[13:26] <anabolix> can someone help me to make shift and control work in warcraft 3?
[13:26] <mib> jaopinto: i have installed the deb package..just need to double click ?
[13:27] <geeksauce> remoteCTR1, ah, i get it. thanks for your help.
[13:27] <joaopinto> mib, if its already installed, you don't need to doubleclick
[13:27] <remoteCTR1> tommy123: i guess there should even be more or is that partition completely empty? if you dont get any error at all while mounting i have no idea... sry...
[13:27] <remoteCTR1> geeksauce: your very welcome
[13:27] <mib> jaopinto:i mean downloaded
[13:27] <xevin> joaopinto: yes i'm on to there channel too..
[13:28] <joaopinto> mib, yes, doubleclick  should install it
[13:28] <tommy123> remoteCTR1: okay thanks anyway
[13:28] <mib> okie.
[13:28] <mib> thanks.
[13:28] <anabolix> can someone help me to make shift and control work in warcraft 3?
[13:28] <remoteCTR1> tommy123: np
[13:28] <xevin> i hope, broadcomm will not be a problem w/ the new release of ubuntu.. i mean, out of the box..
[13:29] <remoteCTR1> !patience | anabolix
[13:29] <JuJuBee> How do I make my external HD automount on /media/400G ?  It is currently mounting as /media/disk.  However when I go to Storage Media using Dolphin, it shows as 400G
[13:29] <joaopinto> anabolix, not to mention, that your question is wine specific.. for which there is a proper channel you are already informed about :)
[13:29] <supersam001> Hey "sudo timestamp too far into the future" Keep getting this error
[13:30] <anabolix> joaopinto: i asked, and was directed back to ubuntu (which was after i was directed the first time to wine)
[13:30] <fongkwan> can someone please give me some precise direction on how to reinstall my wireless usb, which uses zd1211rw.  It was working until someone suggested that i should switch from 2.6.24-16-386 ->2.6.24-18-generic
[13:30] <fongkwan> please
[13:31] <anabolix> had something to do with other applications using these controls... i think window manager
[13:31] <fongkwan> It was working beautifully prior the switch
[13:31] <fongkwan> now i'm stuck
[13:31] <anabolix> but im new to linux, and have no clue of whats going on :S
[13:32] <remoteCTR1> fongkwan: maybe the module for it isnt being loaded
[13:32] <anabolix> im at the windows manager options... how do i disable all of them?
[13:32] <mib> is tehre any "unstable repo" in ubuntu?
[13:33] <larryking> need help, When you PING some Sources, How can you know that source is good speed for you?
[13:33] <xevin> where can we find the link for new / upcomming releases of ubuntu?
[13:33] <sicx> can someone explain to me how TIMER command works in xchat
[13:33] <sicx> ?
[13:33] <joaopinto> sicx, try asking on #xchat
[13:33] <fumbalah> larryking: Choose one that is close to you
[13:33] <joaopinto> :P
[13:34] <sicx> tnx
[13:34] <BoltClock> is there any way of syncing an htc touch diamond running windows mobile 6.1 with ubuntu?
[13:34] <unohu> xevin: its just in alpha stage ... wont be of much use
[13:35] <supersam001> How do I fix timestamp too far into future?
[13:35] <fongkwan> remoteCTR1, lsmod suggests that it is
[13:35] <remoteCTR1> fongkwan: whats the modules name?
[13:35] <joaopinto> Bogaurd, try http://www.pocketpcmag.com/cms/blogs/27/a_new_adventure_windows_mobile_and_ubunt
[13:35] <joaopinto> ops, i meant BoltClock
[13:35] <Bogaurd> ;)
[13:35] <BoltClock> joaopinto, Bogaurd: :P
[13:36] <xevin> what would be the highlight for intrepid Ibex? if its not to soon to ask ^^
[13:36] <joaopinto> !intrepid | xevin
 thank you, but some time I type ping -c 10 XXX.XXX.XxX  ,there will return 10 message, but between them, there are more than 10 seconds
[13:37] <fongkwan> remoteCTR1, zd1211rw.   One other thing i should ask.  I commented out the first line of the sources.list file, "deb cdrom:[Ubuntu 8.04 ...." but when i apt-get update it still ignores the cdrom.  I'm planning to revert back to the older kernel
[13:38] <mikebo> Does anybody know why totem-xine doesn't play nice with alsa, i mean when using it i can listen to any other sources like rhythmbox
[13:38] <mikebo> *can't
[13:39] <ubunubi> what's the gnome equivalent of amarok?
[13:39] <remoteCTR1> fongkwan: apt-get only acesses the cd if the desired stuff is there and is not older then that that you can get from internet, but that has nothing to do with your wireless prob
[13:39] <jc-denton> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-doc/+bug/235236
[13:39] <jc-denton> hwo do i work around this?
[13:39] <jc-denton> dkms build -m  fglrx -v 8.501
[13:39] <IndyGunFreak> remoteCTR1: if you disable the cd repository, it will get everything online.
[13:39] <jc-denton> does not work
[13:39] <remoteCTR1> fongkwan: what exactly happens? getany errors? what does iwconfig return?
[13:40] <jc-denton> http://rafb.net/p/iTRQ2221.html
[13:40] <remoteCTR1> IndyGunFreak: he wrote it still ignores the cd so he meant re removed the comment
[13:40] <jc-denton> i mean it must be possible to build the latest fglrx on ubuntu
[13:40] <IndyGunFreak> remoteCTR1: ah ok, i must have came in on the tail end of it..
[13:40] <adred> gud day. how do i change the default grub? i have kubuntu and ubuntu installed in two different partitions. currently kubuntu's grub is the default,how do i switch it to ubuntu's?
[13:41] <remoteCTR1> IndyGunFreak: heh np
[13:41] <fongkwan> remoteCTR1, i mean, if you could walk me through on getting my wireless usb working again w/o reverting kernel that'll even be better
[13:41] <anabolix> is it possible to install windows for dual boot, even though i have my entire hard disk partitioned for ubuntu?
[13:41] <nbkr> Hi!
[13:42] <nbkr> Does anyone know how to send and recieve MMS (multimedia messages) with ubuntu and a falcom 75 GPRS Modem?
[13:42] <jc-denton> so any ideas?
[13:42] <IndyGunFreak> anabolix: its certainly easier to install Windows first.
[13:42] <IndyGunFreak> but its posible.
[13:43] <geeksauce> another theme-related question:  the emerald theme i'm using says to use with "baghira", so i downloaded baghira and now i'm not really sure what to do with it
[13:43] <remoteCTR1> fongkwan: well i can of course try i few things with you but usually wireless is the hell complicated... as asked above what do you get if you do iwconfig?
[13:43] <fongkwan> remoteCTR1, the reason y i'm feeling so terrible right now is b/c this problem began with a small issue with compiz fusion and them dudes suggested that i should switch kernel from 386->generic , after that the wireless usb stopped working and i went from 1920x1200 to 640x480
[13:44] <IndyGunFreak> fongkwan: but you have eyecandy now! :)
[13:44] <fongkwan> IndyGunFreak, NOTHING!!!!
[13:45] <remoteCTR1> fongkwan: aw gawd... i know such things... yet still WHAT DOES IWCONFIG RETURN?? hehe
[13:45] <jc-denton> what does "You must run a dkms build for kernel 2.6.24-16-rt (i686) first." mean
[13:45] <IndyGunFreak> fongkwan: ugh..lol, that sucks..
[13:45] <jc-denton> i can only do dkms build for a certain module
[13:45] <adred> gud day. how do i change the default grub? i have kubuntu and ubuntu installed in two different partitions. currently kubuntu's grub is the default,how do i switch it to ubuntu's?
[13:45] <remoteCTR1> IndyGunFreak: i doubt that if he went back to 640x480...
[13:45] <jc-denton> and i installed the kernel sources
[13:45] <historyx> What's up, I'm a new ubuntu user, have a question, I'm not being able to get 2 sound outputs at the same time ( for example XMMS and VLC can't output sound at the same time ), each program should run separetly, any ideas how can i fix it?
[13:46] <fongkwan> remoteCTR1, obviously he is being a jerk, so let's not waste time on him
[13:46] <IndyGunFreak> remoteCTR1: yeah, i was being a smartass. i personally think compiz is over rated... cool to show people, but after 2-3 days, its kinda like.. eh.. why did i go to that hassle again
[13:46] <remoteCTR1> historyx: install and use pulseaudio
[13:46] <IndyGunFreak> thats a pulse audio bug.
[13:46] <remoteCTR1> IndyGunFreak: well i am happy ever after with it...
[13:46] <IndyGunFreak> the beauty of choice.
[13:47] <IndyGunFreak> historyx: i ended up switching to Alsa to fix that problem, a lot of people using pulse have that issue.
[13:47] <historyx> IndyGunFreak, i'm using alsa at the moment
[13:47] <historyx> and I'm having the problem i described
[13:47] <IndyGunFreak> historyx: are you sure, i'cve not heard that prob w/ alsa
[13:47] <geeksauce> apparently baghira is a KDE theme though... where's the setting to change KDE themes?
[13:47] <fongkwan> remoteCTR1, can i pm you please?
[13:47] <IndyGunFreak> lots of times w/ Pulseaudio, never w/ alsa
[13:48] <legend2440> larryking: have you tried the   Select Best Server  option in synaptic?
[13:48] <historyx> IndyGunFreak, is there some kind of configuration for alsa maybe ?
[13:48] <Kartagis> !icqfix
[13:48] <remoteCTR1> historyx: as he said himself above he is trying to be smartass, trust me and use pulseaudio, its a sound server that enables you to have simultaneous access to sound ressources
[13:48] <Kartagis> !icq fix
[13:48] <remoteCTR1> fongkwan: sure you can
[13:48] <IndyGunFreak> historyx: system/pref/sounds.. do you have all the playbacks set to alsa?
[13:48] <historyx> IndyGunFreak,  yes
[13:48] <historyx> remoteCTR1, Thanks for the suggestion
[13:48] <historyx> remoteCTR1, guess i'm going with pulse
[13:49] <remoteCTR1> historyx: np
[13:49] <IndyGunFreak> Kartagis: its fixedi n the new version of icq.
[13:49] <IndyGunFreak> *pidgin
[13:49] <historyx> remoteCTR1, it's already installed, how can i configure it though ? any configuration required?
[13:49] <DJones> !icqbug | Kartagis
[13:49] <ikonia> DJones: it was released yesterday
[13:49] <_saw> how do i check out what java version do i have installed ?
[13:49] <remoteCTR1> historyx: dont forget to change that output device after install in the system/preferences/sound dialog
[13:49] <DJones> Kartagis: I'm sure the fix has been released
[13:50] <historyx> remoteCTR1, it's already installed actually
[13:50] <historyx> i can find it in the dropdown menus
[13:50] <DJones> ikonia: yep, I'd seen that, that factoild probably needs changing to take account of it now
[13:51] <remoteCTR1> historyx: as said look in system/preferences/sound and choose pulse audio sound server for the options that you want
[13:51] <Pizarro> Does anyone use Evoulution?
[13:52] <npope> yes
[13:52] <Pizarro> npope, Do you use Evolution?
[13:53] <legend2440> _saw:  in terminal type   sudo update-alternatives --config java   the one with asterisk next to it is one being used
[13:53] <Pizarro> npope, How the hell can I set up the font size in the Inbox left panel? I can't find any option
[13:54] <_saw> legend2440,           1    /usr/bin/gij-4.2
[13:54] <IndyGunFreak> i thought w/ gmail, yahoo, hotmail, etc, only corporations still used mail clients on a home pc
[13:54] <_saw>  +        2    /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/bin/java
[13:54] <_saw> *         3    /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/bin/java
[13:54] <_saw>           4    /usr/lib/jvm/ia32-java-6-sun/jre/bin/java
[13:54] <FloodBot1> _saw: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[13:54] <Pizarro> npope, the font size there is very big
[13:54] <_saw> what should i choose
[13:54] <nich0s> Is it possible to switch between KDE and GNOME without a fresh install?
[13:54] <IndyGunFreak> nich0s: of course.
[13:55] <IndyGunFreak> !info kubuntu-desktop | nich0s
[13:55] <historyx> remoteCTR1, worked like a charm, thanks
[13:55] <remoteCTR1> historyx: hehe np
[13:56] <legend2440> __saw #3 is good . thats what i'm using and never had a problem
[13:56] <_saw> thank you legend2440
[13:56] <mib> how can i update my current feisty to the latest?
[13:56] <mib> what is the command i should use?
[13:56] <nich0s> IndyGunFreak: I may be (probably am) taking this the wrong way, but are you suggesting that kubuntu desktop is only 44kB? :p
[13:56] <mib> i try apt-get update
[13:56] <mib> but seems still the same
[13:56] <gleison> ola auguem fala portugues por aqui
[13:56] <anabolix> anyone have a good link on "how to dual boot" windows and ubuntu
[13:56] <IndyGunFreak> nich0s: thats only the base package..  it will install a crapload of other packages when you run that command
[13:56] <Pizarro> I only find ONE menu in evolution called "Preferences", but neither of the options ini it are useful to set up the gui apperance
[13:56] <IndyGunFreak> mib: you'll need to update from feisty to gutsy, then gutsy to hardy
[13:57] <BoltClock> !dualboot | anabolix
[13:57] <dns53> mib: sudo do-release-upgrade
[13:57] <jc-denton> fglrx
[13:57] <mib> must i upgrade to Hardy?
[13:57] <nich0s> IndyGunFreak: How would I go about ridding myself of KDE and getting GNOME?
[13:57] <IndyGunFreak> mib: thats the current version, you can do whatever you want.
[13:57] <gleison> yes
[13:57] <IndyGunFreak> nich0s: i thought you wanted to install kde?
[13:57] <remoteCTR1> mib: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[13:58] <gleison> gnome
[13:58] <mib> would it affect anything my files etc etc?
[13:58] <nich0s> IndyGunFreak: I have Kubuntu right now, but it runs slowly because this is, for lack of a better term, a shiess computer.
[13:58] <IndyGunFreak> nich0s: i see.. you should be able to install gnome and remove kde.... it'll probably take some work though
[13:58] <remoteCTR1> mib: alternately you can use sudo update-manager -c
[13:58] <gleison> ola auguem fala portugues por aqui
[13:59] <remoteCTR1> mib:  of course not!
[13:59] <DJones> !pt | gleison
[13:59] <nich0s> IndyGunFreak: I love me a challenge, would you be able to direct me towards some documentation perhaps?
[13:59] <th0r> nich0s, you might want to consider xfce instead for a computer with limited resources
[13:59] <IndyGunFreak> !upgrade | nich0s
[13:59] <IndyGunFreak> nich0s: sorry, wrong link
[14:00] <IndyGunFreak> nich0s: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/gnome
[14:00] <th0r> nich0s, and there is no real reason to uninstall kde...you can have all of them on the hard drive and use whichever you wish
[14:00] <nich0s> th0r: Oh? Do you have any information about xcfe?
[14:00] <th0r> nich0s, it is the basis of xubuntu
[14:01] <IndyGunFreak> nich0s: i like xfce. how old of a pc are we talking?.. specs?
[14:01] <LonelyAss> anybode here with Acer Aspire 6920 or 8920? Or with audio: Realtek HD Audio ALC889?
[14:01] <zanco79> LonelyAss: yes
[14:01] <keanu> whenever I try to run a copy of rtorrent I compiled, it seems to run for up to 30 seconds, and then says "Killed" - any ideas why it says that?
[14:02] <ftn|voiCe> hello, is anyone able do help me configuring my old 19" monitor probably so i can use a resolution above 480x320
[14:02] <nich0s> IndyGunFreak: Old enough to run Gnome, I would think. P4 2.53 512 RAM.
[14:02] <IndyGunFreak> keanu: why not just use a torrent client thats in the repos.. or use the utorrent in wine, thats a popular option
[14:02] <IndyGunFreak> nich0s: yeah, it should run gnome fine
[14:03] <IndyGunFreak> i've got gnome on a laptop way older than that and it runs fine
[14:03] <nich0s> th0r: I will have to take a look at xubuntu as well. I am trying to avoid a fresh install if I can.  I am just having issues with KDE... I think there just too much "fluff" for my liking. :P
[14:04] <th0r> nich0s, I would just install xfce from synaptic...no need to uninstall anything.
[14:04] <th0r> nich0s, you will need the xfce4 packages and thunar, the file manager
[14:05] <keanu> IndyGunFreak, the copy in the repos is an older version
[14:05] <keanu> IndyGunFreak, I tried installing it anyway though - it also says "Killed"
[14:05] <th0r> nich0s, also install mousepad...the text editor. All packages for xfce are designed to be small and efficient
[14:05] <IndyGunFreak> nich0s: i'd clean install xfce, gnome, flux, whatever else you want to try, then clean install the one you want...
[14:05] <remoteCTR1> !op | can anyone kick that IndyGunFreak pls? the guy's just trolling
[14:05] <IndyGunFreak> remoteCTR1: ?.. are you a freakin retard?
[14:05] <IndyGunFreak> i've never been a troll here,
[14:06] <IndyGunFreak> if you're gonna make an allegation like that, back it up
[14:06] <elky> both you kids need to back down
[14:06] <jc-denton> i used envy for now
[14:06]  * Myrtti pinches both by their earlobes and sits them in opposite corners
[14:06] <nich0s> th0r: Thanks for the help.
[14:06] <IndyGunFreak> elky: ?.. i never stood up, i have no idea what prompted him being that way
[14:06] <jc-denton> but i don't have any idea what exactly it installed
[14:06] <nich0s> IndyGunFreak: You've been most helpful!
[14:06] <jc-denton> however it seems to work
[14:07] <nich0s> DJones: Thanks for the tips.
[14:07] <elky> IndyGunFreak, calling someone a retard is not welcome no matter what.
[14:07]  * nich0s is off to destroy his computer. :P
[14:07] <IndyGunFreak> elky: calling someone a troll i would think is equally unwelcome
[14:07] <Myrtti> IndyGunFreak: wrondoings of others do not justify yours
[14:07] <Myrtti> IndyGunFreak: move over
[14:07] <exist> hy
[14:07] <remoteCTR1> IndyGunFreak: i meant your self announced smartassing and things like you consider kde to be a linux virus
[14:07] <dns53> can we get back to ubunt?
[14:07] <DJones> nich0s: It was mostly IndyGunFreak that was helping you, he's earned the thanks, not me
[14:08] <Pici> AHEM: This channel is for support.
[14:08] <Myrtti> remoteCTR1: you're heading towards bein muted
[14:08] <remoteCTR1> IndyGunFreak: you ar not helping anyone but producing worthless blabla
[14:08] <IndyGunFreak> remoteCTR1: well, if you don't like it "/ignore indygunfreak" will give you peace
[14:08] <elky> IndyGunFreak, yes, but you've been around long enough to know better.
[14:08] <IndyGunFreak> elky: agreed, but if anyones trolling baiting, its him
[14:08] <remoteCTR1> Myrtti: now why is that?
[14:08] <elky> remoteCTR1, you're not adding any value either at the moment
[14:08] <elky> IndyGunFreak, step down.
[14:08] <remoteCTR1> umm HE used the term not me guys;)
[14:08] <IndyGunFreak> lol, i just told him out to ignore me.
[14:09] <Myrtti> are we done?
[14:09] <IndyGunFreak> i never started.
[14:09] <remoteCTR1> ok guys I am trying to help ppl here, you can grep my name and read the thanksayings
[14:09] <Myrtti> back to support or I'll start whippin.
[14:09] <keanu> IndyGunFreak, any ideas on what's killing it?
[14:09] <remoteCTR1> THIS guy is just bothering but not helping
[14:09] <Myrtti> remoteCTR1: final call.
[14:09] <elky> remoteCTR1, nobody is thanking you for this annoyance.
[14:10] <remoteCTR1> gawd... now its me, thanks guys that was helpful...
[14:10] <IndyGunFreak> keanu: no.. but if its a problem w/ the repo version also, then mayb its a bug int he program, i don't know
[14:10] <LonelyAss> anybody knows how to make "gnome-volume-control" daemon to run with system in tray? It runs from terminal fine for me, but i want autorun in tray
[14:11] <keanu> IndyGunFreak, I doubt it's a bug in the program  - if it was, it'd certainly be fixed in SVN, which I also tried.  I've used rtorrent tons of times, which is what makes this time different
[14:11] <pen> why there is no transparency in flash in FF3?
[14:11] <newbee617> i have problem using wifi on my laptop, anyone help
[14:12] <IndyGunFreak> keanu: well if you've compiled the current version properly, and the version in the repos isn't working.. ....
[14:12] <keanu> is there any way to trace what's killing it?
[14:12] <Shoopuf> How do I find out which version of Sunbird it is in the Add/Remove programs?
[14:12] <mgolisch> what is add/remove programs?

[14:13] <Sylphid|work> !wireless | newbee617
[14:13] <IndyGunFreak> Shoopuf: it should say in the description of the package, does it not?
[14:13] <Gallez> how can i change the contents of the Locations menu on the upper bar?
[14:13] <tweakt> pen: ask adobe
[14:13] <Shoopuf> mgolisch: Thanks for the sarcasm but if you've used Ubuntu in the Applications menu there is an "Add/Remove" feature. Thanks.
[14:13] <tweakt> pen: you can try flash10 beta, but it's buggy
[14:13] <remoteCTR1> LonelyAss: rightclick the panel, and choose volume-control
[14:13] <Gallez> how can i change the contents of the Locations menu on the upper bar?
[14:13] <Shoopuf> IndyGunFreak: Nope doesn't have any version number listed. :[
[14:14] <newbee617> if i can see the ap in wicd ,can i say that the driver is ok?
[14:14] <IndyGunFreak> Shoopuf: then look in synaptic package manager, and install from there, i know the version # is there
[14:14] <pen> tweakt, i'm already using 10
[14:14] <Shoopuf> IndyGunFreak: Ahhh OK I didn't think to look there, thanks a bunch.
[14:14] <pen> tweakt, it is still no transparency
[14:15] <LonelyAss> remoteCTR1: thanx!)))) so easy...)))
[14:15] <Gallez> how can i change the contents of the Places menu on the upper bar?
[14:15] <remoteCTR1> LonelyAss: indeed *g*
[14:15] <tweakt> pen: don't know anything about it, but I know it requires using the right "wmode"?
[14:15] <Myrtti> Gallez: we saw your question earlier
[14:15] <pc7> ^c0w_k3r3nZs^
[14:15] <pen> tweakt, wmode?
[14:15] <Myrtti> Gallez: please elaborate a bit more, are you using Xubuntu or Ubuntu?
[14:15] <Gallez> Myrtti: yeah, only now i realised i wrote the wrong name
[14:16] <Gallez> Myrtti: Ubuntu (GNOME)
[14:16] <tweakt> pen: http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10.html
[14:17] <mgolisch> Shoopuf: yeah i use it everyday(ubuntu) but i never saw that add/remove thing, what is that? some cripled version of synaptic? atleast it looks like that
[14:18] <[Michelangelo]> Hi all

[14:19] <[Michelangelo]> I need some help here: http://pastie.org/228941
[14:19] <[Michelangelo]> The problem is a SCSI HD
[14:19] <neko_> hi people
[14:19] <[Michelangelo]> I don't know how mount it
[14:19] <ubuntu> hi all
[14:19] <keanu> Anyone else have any idea why rtorrent keeps being killed?  Running it on a VPS running Hardy
[14:20] <Pizarro> Is there any other channel where I can ask about specific applications? thanks
[14:20] <tweakt> pen: read up on 'wmode' that's all I can say
[14:20] <IndyGunFreak> Pizarro: some programs have channels, what program?
[14:20] <unavailable> Pizarro which application?
[14:20] <tweakt> pen: i'm not a flash developer
[14:20] <neko_> do you know how to setup sendmail on an ubuntu server that is behind a router for internet access ?
[14:20] <Gallez> how can i change the contents of the Places menu on the upper bar? (Ubuntu 7.10)
[14:21] <Pizarro> Evoulution
[14:21] <Pizarro> Sorry, Evolution
[14:21] <b4l7424r> in which file is the various device/folder/file permissions stored?
[14:21] <IndyGunFreak> Pizarro: you might try their website and see if they have email support or a forum
[14:21] <neko_> file permissions ?
[14:22] <Pici> b4l7424r: Its stored within the filesystem for each file.  There isnt a master file of all permissions.
[14:22] <Xavura> Everytime I turn on my PC I have to reset my DNS settings and it's annoying, how can I make them save
[14:22] <simNIX> b4l7424r -> no file exists that holds that info - I asume its stored in fs
[14:22] <neko_> what said pici
[14:22] <b4l7424r> ok
[14:22] <Pizarro> IndyGunFreak, ok, I'll check the forum, since nothing resolves my daubts int he FAQ, I have a missing option in the Parameters dialog
[14:22] <neko_> chmod  and chown for changing permission of files
[14:22] <b4l7424r> what if you were to change permissions for a partition, where would that be stored?
[14:22] <Xavura> Also, when Ubuntu is loading, with all the white text on a black  background, one of the tests fails and says something about /etc/fstab
[14:22] <Pizarro> IndyGunFreak, and I have the latest version
[14:23] <DJones> Pizarro: Have a look here, that lists a irc channel for discussion about evolution http://www.gnome.org/projects/evolution/
[14:23] <unavailable> pizarro i hated evolution, and installed thunderbird  --  it even has add-ons to let you check your yahoo free mail
[14:23] <IndyGunFreak> Pizarro: sorry, my evolution experience is surpassed only by my inexperience as an astronaut
[14:23] <puneethbedre> i lurve UBUNTU!!
[14:23] <simNIX> b4l7424r permisoins for a partiton are normaly set in /etc/fstab and are loaded in kernel
[14:23] <neko_> b4l7424r, you may need to have a look to fstab
[14:23] <White_Lightning> puneethbedre: don't we all
[14:23] <unavailable> indygunfreak you can fly?
[14:23] <b4l7424r> ok
[14:23] <neko_> (i am too slow)
[14:23] <Pizarro> unavailable, but, Does Thunderbird connect to Exchange'
[14:23] <Pizarro> ?
[14:23] <unavailable> hmmm
[14:23] <IndyGunFreak> unavailable: maybe your sarcasm meter is low.
[14:24] <neko_> nobody have idea / experience having sendmail working ?
[14:24] <Xavura> simNIX: sorry to like butt in, but you mentioned /etc/fstab and I get an error regarding that when Ubuntu is loading
[14:24] <Pizarro> unavailable, Evolution does, and very quick, that's why I love it
[14:24] <puneethbedre>  White_Lightning: more than fedora to say...!!
[14:24] <unavailable> pizarro http://fourforces.wordpress.com/2008/02/04/setup-mozilla-thunderbird-to-work-with-microsoft-exchange-server/
[14:24] <simNIX> Xavura: what the error ?
[14:24] <IndyGunFreak> Fedora is a good distro if you like rpm stuff..
[14:24] <Xavura> simNIX: I can't remember exactly what it was, just one of the tests that run on start-up fails
[14:24] <White_Lightning> puneethbedre: That almost goes WITHOUT saying
[14:25] <puneethbedre> IndyGunFreak: i use fedora and ubuntu both... but spend most of my time on ubuntu... :D
[14:25] <[Michelangelo]> any help is appreciated:  I need some help here: http://pastie.org/228941
[14:25] <Pizarro> unavailable, Does Thunderbird support public calendars, etc..?
[14:25] <Xavura> simNIX: It says it can be fixed by adding something to /etc/fstab, I think it's something to do with my other HDD which won't mount anymore even someone helped me get it working
[14:25] <Xavura> even though
[14:25] <simNIX> Pizarro: have a look at Sunbird
[14:25] <IndyGunFreak> puneethbedre: well, that gives you a wide range of experience/perspective then..
[14:25] <Danie3> Freeciv require video driver ?
[14:25] <remoteCTR1> Pizarro: if you install sunbird yes
[14:26] <Pizarro> simNIX, remoteCTR1 Is that a plugin or another program'
[14:26] <unavailable> pizarro http://www.mozilla.org/projects/calendar/#download_thunderbird
[14:26] <puneethbedre> IndyGunFreak: true, i find ubuntu having alot of wide support compared to fedora, but fedora is built at a much higher level
[14:26] <simNIX> Pizarro I dont know  remoteCTR1
[14:26] <remoteCTR1> Pizarro: its an addon
[14:26] <Pici> !offtopic | puneethbedre
[14:26] <puneethbedre> IndyGunFreak: but i still find ubuntu cus i get stuff much easily!!
[14:27] <Pizarro> simNIX, remoteCTR1 , ok thank you very much, I'll have a look to the infomation you gave me

[14:28] <simNIX> :-)
[14:29] <zcram> I'm kind of lost, I don't seem to find on the ubuntu www-site where I can get the sources. Any ideas?
[14:29] <zcram> i.e. the system sources?
[14:30] <dns53> zcram the sources.list or package sources?

[14:32] <Pizarro> Shoopuf, but once donwloaded how can I install it?
[14:32] <negge^> zcram: first you write sudo apt-get build-dep packagename, then sudo apt-get source packagename
[14:33] <Shoopuf> Pizarro: I think we gotta compile it :S I dunno how to do that
[14:33] <noelferreira> to eliminate the keys getting stuck and key repeat bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/124406 - i disabled ACPI in my boot loader. However without ACPI my computer is always changing this brightness level (like every second). So now i can't complete work with or without ACPI. My system is completely unstable. This happens since i upgraded to hardy heron beta. Even if i change Gconf-editor in order not to automaticall
 y change brigthness level  this happens. Please let me now a workaround for this. I used Ubuntu since 'always' and i don't want to change distro now. please let me now a workaround for this. thanks

[14:37] <Shoopuf> Pizarro: OK I'll try to compile Sunbird (total newbie no idea what i'm doing) but if I get it to work easily I'll share how it was done with ya. :)
[14:37] <IndyGunFreak> SolidSlash: oh ok, sorry, not used xfce in a while, and i can't remember..
[14:37] <SolidSlash> IndyGunFreak: I guess it's related to gtkrc file of current gtk theme, but I can't find the solution
[14:38] <IndyGunFreak> SolidSlash: it could be, i really don't know/can't remember
[14:38] <elmer> Is there a screenshot tool that will screenshot an entire web page?

[14:39] <Pizarro> Shoopuf, thanks!
[14:39] <elmer> I would prefer an image file
[14:39] <IndyGunFreak> elmer: not sure if it works for you or not, but what i do, i use Opera.. and go to the page i want to save, then File/Save As.. and file type should be ".mht"... and save it.. kiicker is, you can only open the file in Opera
[14:39] <elmer> IndyGunFreak, wow. That stinks. I don't use Opera. >.<
[14:39] <scottuss> elmer: I was going to suggest similar to IndyGunFreak
[14:39] <IndyGunFreak> elmer: lol, thats the only reason i ever install opera.
[14:39] <timercrack> press "Alt+PrintScreen"
[14:39] <elmer> timercrack, I need the whole page

[14:43] <zcram> yeah... I trust you
[14:43] <zcram> but I'll stay with my opinion
[14:43] <scottuss> Daiske_Ido: Yeah but it's fun for playing about with. But you wouldn't use it on production
[14:43] <Soul_Sample> zippytech: there was some keyboard combination i pressed by accident and enabled that... can't remember what it was though

[14:58] <unavailable> storrgie the link should help you either way
[14:58] <gam3r111> no i made the screen rlly big in wine configuration
[14:58] <Pici> gam3r111: Are you having problems with a program within Wine? or with the win install itself?
[14:58] <unavailable> storrgie For ntfs, you will have to use ntfslabel in the ntfsprogs package.
[14:58] <gam3r111> so i cant see the bottom
[14:59] <gam3r111> wine
[15:00] <kidbuntu> is there a way that ubuntu will shutdown on a specific time?
[15:00] <afief> kidbuntu, you can make a cron job of it
[15:00] <jamus> gam3r111, if too much hustle just uninstall /install will be faster
[15:00] <Billll> bas: ping didn't work since I'm not connected to the net =P
[15:00] <Billll> but
[15:00] <kidbuntu> afief: what do you mean?

[15:01] <afief> When I try to play audio or video files my I get no response, the player just stops at frame 1, but when I run flash in my browser it works fine(with sound) What is wrong?
[15:01] <kidbuntu> afief: whats a cron?
[15:01] <jamus> kidbuntu,  gshutdown
[15:01] <afief> kidbuntu, cron is like the "scheduled jobs" for linux
[15:01] <Billll> I did check my network settings/wireless conenction/atho property. Legion is conencting to coemthing at 62%. So I guess I have to somehow make it connect to my router, or how about anything...
[15:01] <kidbuntu> afief: is it an application or something or what?
[15:02] <gam3r111> how do i uninstall wine
[15:02] <afief> kidbuntu, it's a service running in the background of your Ubuntu installation, it executes tasks on specific times
[15:02] <afief> gam3r111, sudo apt-get remove wine
[15:02] <gam3r111> thanks

[15:03] <jamey-uk> I installed Ubuntu Desktop 8.04 on my Dell laptop, the wireless works fine but the wired (!) doesn't at all - if I do "ifup eth0" it sends out a DHCP request but doesn't get any responses. The cable is definitely plugged in.
[15:03] <vergil> agreed. Nobody wants to hear you say "touchpad" ever again :)
[15:03] <afief> When I try to play audio or video files my I get no response, the player just stops at frame 1, but when I run flash in my browser it works fine(with sound) What is wrong?
[15:04] <jamus> sorry dude (slipped)
[15:04] <sipior> jamey-uk: is there a dhcp server listening on the other end?
[15:04] <Pici> afief: What type of files are you trying to play?

[15:05] <killer> How can I make firefox more readable when using a dark GTK2 theme?
[15:05] <jamey-uk> sipior: yes, this machine was working earlier picking up DHCP and there are other machines plugged into same Gigabit switch
[15:05] <jamus> afief,  it not better to use aptitude over apt-get (anybody  how knows pls comment)
[15:06] <afief> Pici, all kind of stuff, MP3, AVI, OGG, FLAC... there are some other types, but I don't know what they are
[15:06] <Storrgie> has anyone ever created a raid array using mdadm?
[15:06] <Pici> afief: The video and audio fails?
[15:07] <jamus> gam3r111, cant u fix it from aplic/wine/configure wine?

[15:11] <volmarias> I'm currently using andLinux, which is based off of ubuntu. I need to reinstall it, and I'd like to export a list of everything I have installed via aptitude so that I can reimport it later. Does anyone know if there is a tool that will help me do this? Is this even vaguely reasonable?

[15:14] <LonelyAss> anybode here with Acer Aspire 6920 or 8920 or something like that? Need help with configuring audio: Realtek HD Audio ALC889
[15:15] <gottabeandrew> i like how people say that this "just works" and yet i don't have to go through this on windows.
[15:15] <Crema10> gottabeandrew: its very simple man.. just relax

[15:16] <gam3r111> jamus
[15:16] <gottabeandrew> i know, i'm sorry
[15:16] <afief> Pici, interesting... it works in mplayer
[15:16] <gam3r111> its still huge
[15:16] <afief> Pici, but not in Totem
[15:16] <gam3r111> and i have no config menue
[15:16] <gottabeandrew> basically, the youtube player isn't working so somebody suggested i have to reinstall flash
[15:16] <gottabeandrew> so i need to know how to do that
[15:16] <jamus> gottabeandrew,  sudo aptitude update&& sudo aptitude reinstall flash
[15:16] <Pici> afief: It could be a codecs issue.  I dont use totem myself, so I'm not sure
[15:16] <joaopinto> gottabeandrew, how did you install it in the frist time ?
[15:16] <Crema10> ok cool, very simple
[15:17] <gottabeandrew> opened up firefox and got that install plugins window so i installed the flash-nonfree one
[15:17] <afief> Pici, well as long as mplayer works I'm fine:D it's more lightweight than totem anyway
[15:17] <gam3r111> i rlly need to fix this problem
[15:18] <Crema10> go to System -> Administration -> Synaptic Package Manager
[15:18] <Crema10> look for nonfree flash
[15:18] <Crema10> uninstall it
[15:18] <gottabeandrew> ok
[15:18] <Crema10> and  then reinstall it
[15:18] <tazsta_linode> hey all im trying to run ssh through corkscrew as our network doesnt allow port 22 outbound and i keep gett a error saying connection refused any ideas on how i can get around this?
[15:18] <D3RGPS31> i know this is the wrong place to ask, but can windows use shortcuts like linux uses shortcuts?
[15:18] <gottabeandrew> yes
[15:18] <Chousuke> what kind of shortcuts do you mean?
[15:19] <Chousuke> symbolic links?
[15:19] <Pici> gam3r111: Have you installed anything with Wine yet?
[15:19] <jamus> gam3r111,  sorry dude i dont wanna mess ur stuff so i cant help u no more
[15:19] <gottabeandrew> windows has desktop, menu, folder etc. shortcuts, yes
[15:19] <D3RGPS31> yes
[15:19] <Chousuke> D3RGPS31: NTFS has support for them
[15:19] <unavailable> pici ok if i wanted to use ports 25 and 110 for mail would there be a problem?
[15:19] <Pici> gam3r111: floodbot is not a person.
[15:19] <joaopinto> D3RGPS31, ntfs does support them, but there is no utility on windows to manage them
[15:19] <Chousuke> D3RGPS31: they're not supported in any GUI though, so you need a cli tool
[15:19] <Chousuke> D3RGPS31: there's junction.exe in the sysinternals toolset
[15:19] <Pici> !windows | D3RGPS31, everyone else
[15:20] <joaopinto> D3RGPS31, and better ask on ##windows
[15:20] <gam3r111> pici how did u no i klicked it
[15:20] <D3RGPS31> thanks =D
[15:20] <Mesiox> !automate
[15:20] <Pici> gam3r111: Because I'm psychic.
[15:20] <Pici> gam3r111: Now, did you install anything with Wine?

[15:24] <sandman> anyone can help me out?
[15:24] <gam3r111> how to uninstall wine
[15:24] <kwtm> If we want to use Compiz in Kubuntu, do we install the package "compiz" (which is not installed by default)?  Or do we only need to install "compiz-kde" (which *is* installed by default)?  I can't seem to get any Compiz effects with the default config.
[15:24] <joaopinto> Billll, pleas read your router's documentation on how to reset the password, this is not the proper channel to get help with the router passwd reset
[15:25] <joaopinto> gam3r111, just remove the wine package from the package manager
[15:25] <Billll> yeah i'm reading =P
[15:25] <jamus> gam3r111,  use sudo aptitude -help for command list
[15:25] <b4l7424r> my ubuntu install got borked after i tried to change the read/write permission for my windows partition using gksu nautilus and rightclicking, choosing properties and so forth
[15:25] <EugenMayer> are there any soloutions known for the 1000ms response/ping problem with Intel Ethernet Gigabit LANs ?
[15:25] <gottabeandrew> ok, so i reinstalled the flash plugin and youtube still doesn't work
[15:25] <sandman> kwtm chk out the compiz fusion channel on freenode...for exclusive help
[15:26] <jamus> gamer
[15:26] <gottabeandrew> do you want a screenshot?
[15:26] <kwtm> sandman: I didn't realize there was a compiz fusion channel!  Thanks for the tip.  What's the exact name, "#compiz fusion" with a space in the name?
[15:26] <karan> hello
[15:26] <jamus> gam3r111,  its better thanapt-get for some unknown vage reason :)
[15:26] <scream_sayonara> hello im trying to convert an .nrg file to an .iso but when i put the command in the terminal it just comes up with the program info.... ~why~..
[15:26] <sandman> compiz-fusion
[15:27] <gottabeandrew> hello?
[15:27] <karan> would anyone know how to increase mouse sensitivity past the max allowed in settings?
[15:27] <Shoopuf> I'm trying to compile something (Sunbird 0.8) and I've never compiled anything successfully before... I downloaded the build-essential and automake packages but when I'm in the sunbird directory after un-gzing it I type "./configure" but I get the messaeg "bash: ./configure: No such file or directory"
[15:27] <jamus> gottabeandrew,  wait man i know wasup
[15:27] <karan> i just converted from windows and i'm used to high sensitivity
[15:27] <sandman> karan..go to mouse settings in system>preferences
[15:27] <Pici> Shoopuf: read the INSTALL and README files within the new directory, it might not use ./configure
[15:27] <gottabeandrew> cool jamus
[15:27] <karan> sandman: yeah i did that, i need it to go hire than the max
[15:28] <jamus> gottabeandrew,  remove gnash its colliding
[15:28] <gam3r111> wjamus what will that have to do with anything
[15:28] <gam3r111> ***jumus
[15:28] <jamus> gottabeandrew,   happend to me 2 hours ago
[15:28] <gottabeandrew> ok, what does gnash do?
[15:28] <Junito> hi
[15:29] <Pici> gam3r111: It seems that Wine has changed since I was last familiar with it, I'm not sure how to revert the settings without losing everything that you've installed.  #winehq should be able to help you more.
[15:29] <Crema10> gottabeandrew: google it
[15:29] <jamus> gottabeandrew,  gnash is flash  too so they have conflict (utub works fine with flash)
[15:29] <fongkwan> Does anyone here have success and experience in installing fglrx drivers with ATI hd series ?
[15:29] <sandman> karan: not sure how to do it otherwise
[15:30] <gottabeandrew> gnash isn't installed lol
[15:30] <Junito> someone know how can i deactivate the attraction of windows when i use Beryl, it's hard move windows with flur and this attraction
[15:30] <gam3r111> pici
[15:30] <jamus> gottabeandrew,  r e m u v e gnash
[15:30] <gam3r111> i dont mind un installing everythin
[15:30] <ASULutzy> fongkwan: My desktop uses the fglrx drivers, they were pretty easy to install, other than the fact that I had to write my own script to rewrite my mtrr tables to fix a memory remapping issue that only occurs on 64-bit while trying to use more than 3.2 GB of ram ;)
[15:31] <jamus> gottabeandrew,  search in installed apps gor ''flash''
[15:31] <jamus> gottabeandrew,  to see what u have for flash
[15:31] <azzozhsn> Hi, what's the easist way to install vmware?
[15:31] <Pici> gottabeandrew: from a terminal: sudo apt-get remove gnash && sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[15:31] <leachim6> hey
[15:31] <leachim6> what is the name of the ubuntu-updater program so I can run the gui from the terminal
[15:31] <Pici> gam3r111: uninstall all your programs you installed in Wine, then delete ~/.wine/
[15:31] <joaopinto> azzozhsn, searching for a tutorial on goole :) since there is no repository for it
[15:32] <jamus> azzozhsn,  u have it?
[15:32] <gottabeandrew> flashplugin-nonfree, and thats it
[15:32] <gam3r111> ok
[15:32] <jamus> ok
[15:32] <azzozhsn> yeah, thanks
[15:33] <Shoopuf> Pici: The readme file pointed me to the Mozilla website which didn't say anything about compiling in Linux. >_< ...
[15:33] <leachim6> I just need the name
[15:33] <jamus> gottabeandrew,  sudo aptitude update&& sudo aptitude reinstall flash
[15:33] <Pici> Shoopuf: Are you sure that it needs to be compiled at all?
[15:33] <Pici> jamus: flash is not a valid package name, that won't work
[15:33] <gottabeandrew> ok, that worked
[15:33] <gottabeandrew> i know, i seen somebody put that before
[15:33] <gottabeandrew> it works now
[15:34] <gottabeandrew> so for future reference, if anybody asks, tell them to do that ;-)
[15:34] <gottabeandrew> no actually, this is what i put in the terminal - sudo apt-get remove gnash && sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[15:34] <jamus> azzozhsn,  find in what dir it is  and install using commandline
[15:35] <Crema10> good job gottabeandrew
[15:35] <LonelyAss> anybode here with Acer Aspire 6920 or 8920 or something like that? Need help with configuring audio: Realtek HD Audio ALC889
[15:35] <giraldi> #ubuntu-it
[15:35] <jamus> gottabeandrew,  aptitude is better (handles uninstall better )  use that instead of apt-get
[15:35] <Shoopuf> How would I execute this file "run-mozilla.sh" in terminal?
[15:36] <Pici> jamus: aptitude and apt-get are largely the same.
[15:36] <fongkwan> ASULutzy, I can't get it to work. System->admin->Hardware drivers, after enabling "Proprietary ATI accelerated drivers" when I reboot, it forces (prompts) me to load in low graphics mode
[15:37] <Pici> jamus: And they handle the same since they both use dpkg
[15:37] <joaopinto> Shoopuf, sh run-mozilla.sh
[15:37] <ASULutzy> fongkwan: What card do you have, and how much ram do you have?
[15:37] <fongkwan> ASULutzy, 2GB, HD2600.
[15:38] <ASULutzy> Pici, jamus, gottabeandrew: I think back in the day aptitude was considerably better with dependencies and what not, but now they're pretty much the same, right?
[15:38] <db92> my monitor is meant to sync @ 75hz refresh rate but my only option in the config is 60hz. how do i change this? :P
[15:38] <Pizarro> Does anyone managed to make Thunderbird to work with an Exchange server?
[15:38] <leachim6> what is the name of the ubuntu updater program
[15:38] <leachim6> so I can run it from the command line
[15:38] <Pici> ASULutzy: Thats what I hear.
[15:38] <ASULutzy> fongkwan: And you're using Hardy?
[15:38] <jamus> Pici,  -- http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/debian-26/apt-get-vs.-aptitude-363365/
[15:38] <ASULutzy> leachim6: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[15:38] <joaopinto> leachim6, update-manager

[15:39] <fongkwan> yes
[15:39] <sandman> hi..i am unable to access any partitions from nautilus and cannot opne the terminal
[15:39] <ASULutzy> jamus: That's from 3 years ago?
[15:39] <sandman> can anyone please help me out?
[15:39] <ASULutzy> fongkwan: Have you tried using Envy to install the drivers?
[15:39] <joaopinto> jamus, that article is from 2005
[15:39] <Pici> jamus: That was 2005, things have changed.
[15:40] <molgrum> is it just me or does the LMMS package lack a menu shortcut?
[15:40] <fongkwan> Nope, but I was told that fglrx should work fine with my card
[15:40] <Mediapirate> Hello
[15:40] <Mediapirate> I had a problem when I tried to install ubuntu...
[15:40] <Mediapirate> http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh173/Media_pirate/0TgS5T0aVe8xehd7wvvwwH5qvjTCdk.jpg
[15:40] <ASULutzy> fongkwan: It should, but sometimes Envy does a better job at installing the fglrx drivers than whatever way Hardy does it ;)
[15:40] <ASULutzy> !envy | fongkwan
[15:40] <jamus> lol thats what happen when u on web in 4 a.m sorry guys
[15:41] <azzozhsn> is there any software same VMware ? what is it name?
[15:41] <ASULutzy> azzozhsn: virtualbox
[15:41] <joaopinto> ASULutzy, hum ? envyng installs a different driver version, the recommended install is the default driver provided from the hardware drivers menu
[15:41] <Mediapirate> does anyone know what might cause that?
[15:42] <ASULutzy> joaopinto: Well, that driver isn't working for him, so I figured let Envy have a go?
[15:42] <fongkwan> ASULutzy, Do i have to uninstall ALL fglrx and related packages before attempting ENvyNG?
[15:42] <jamus> azzozhsn,  wait i got it ,sec
[15:42] <Pici> Mediapirate: Yikes, i've never seen anything like that before.
[15:42] <azzozhsn> is it good? can I find it in synaptic?
[15:42] <joaopinto> ASULutzy, sure, but your comment "Envy does a better job at installing the fglrx drivers" is a out of context
[15:42] <Mediapirate> Pici: I thought it was strange as well....i rebooted and same result
[15:42] <ASULutzy> joaopinto: Ah, you're right, sorry trying to figure out why my Windows VM is hosed beyond belief.
[15:43] <fongkwan> ASULutzy, Do i have to uninstall ALL fglrx and related packages before attempting ENvyNG?
[15:43] <rafaell> #ubuntu-br
[15:43] <ASULutzy> fongkwan: I think when you install Envy-ng one of the options will be to uninstall ATI drivers, then after it uninstalls you can have it install ATI driver
[15:43] <gam3r111> how do i uninstall all wine apps easily
[15:43] <jamus> azzozhsn,  virtualbox ose
[15:43] <ASULutzy> gam3r111: You could probably just delete the wine folder if you really wanted to
[15:44] <gam3r111> ho
[15:44] <gam3r111> **how
[15:44] <azzozhsn> thanks
[15:44] <gam3r111> ASULutzy how
[15:44] <ASULutzy> gam3r111: Well, if that's definitely what you want to do, I guess you could just do rm -rf /home/$USER/.wine/
[15:44] <ScaryFast> god I hate ubuntu irc apps. I just want mirc! :P
[15:45] <gam3r111> i have to delete all aine apps but some of the wont delete
[15:45] <ScaryFast> too bad I installed it and it's crashing
[15:45] <joaopinto> ScaryFast, xchat is friendly
[15:45] <ASULutzy> ScaryFast: xchat isn't too bad,
[15:45] <gam3r111> some wine programs wont uninstall
[15:46] <gam3r111> i need help
[15:46] <db92> ScaryFast, tbh i always preferred chatzilla since i used firefox, mirc got on my nerves for some reason i cant remember :P
[15:46] <ASULutzy> gam3r111: if you really want to be sure to get everything you can put sudo in front of the command I gave
[15:46] <ASULutzy> gam3r111: But be very careful, if you type it in wrong you could hose your whole system.
[15:46] <jamus> gam3r111,  i suggest u take some  chiil time (not for smtn bad from ur side and try again refreshed)
[15:46] <kjdro> hello
[15:46] <joaopinto> ASULutzy, you are not expected to need sudo to rm a dir inside your home dir :)
[15:47] <Mesiox> any 1 here know a macosx bar dock i can use?
[15:47] <IdleOne> ScaryFast, have you tried Xchat?
[15:47] <db92> ScaryFast, also give irssi a try if you like terminal :PP
[15:47] <Mesiox> for linux
[15:47] <bazhang> awn Mesiox
[15:47] <ScaryFast> I'm in xchat now
[15:47] <bazhang> !awn | Mesiox
[15:47] <jamus> getting stuck requiers a  break to release the mind block
[15:47] <ScaryFast> can it do multiple servers at a time?
[15:47] <Mesiox> bazhand, anything else?
[15:47] <ScaryFast> I couldn't find a way :P
[15:47] <ASULutzy> joaopinto: Agreed, but he just said that rm -rf ~/.wine/ didn't work, so my assumption was something in there is owned by root
[15:47] <IdleOne> ScaryFast, of course
[15:47] <bazhang> kiba-dock maybe others Mesiox
[15:47] <db92> Scarey, xchat-new-server tab ....
[15:47] <IdleOne> ScaryFast, click on the xchat tab ( top left )
[15:47] <db92> ScaryFast, *
[15:48] <Mesiox> bazhang: there was 1 other dock i hurt bout.
[15:48] <db92> Scarey, sorry for highlight :P
[15:48] <ScaryFast> I just have to figure it out. This is my first day using linux basically. besides a live-cd.
[15:48] <ASULutzy> Oh boy... I let chkdsk run on my VM, and now it's just sort of sitting here.... This could be a bad day at work if windows won't boot :'(
[15:48] <joaopinto> ASULutzy, he didn't said the command said, it just said not all the soft was uninstall, which maybe a different matter, like .desktop files not being removed
[15:48] <bazhang> Mesiox, what name
[15:48] <joaopinto> ops.. "...the command failed..."
[15:48] <IdleOne> ScaryFast, xchat is not "linux" but I see your point.
[15:48] <Mesiox> bazhang: cant quite remember.
[15:48] <gam3r111> jamus i rlly need help
[15:48] <flyfish> hi
[15:48] <Chrysalis> is there a way to access shared windows folders in a local network? as i understand it samba is for samba shares only? i guess with samba on the windows coputer aswell?
[15:48] <ScaryFast> well this is x-chat gnome
[15:48] <jamus> gam3r111,  take 5 to think about it and u will know ( zen bull but it works )
[15:48] <bazhang> Mesiox, what does apt-cache search dock turn up
[15:48] <ScaryFast> maybe I need the normal xchat
[15:49] <gam3r111> zen bull?
[15:49] <negge^> Chrysalis: with Samba you can access folders shared from Windows machines and vice versa
[15:49] <IdleOne> ScaryFast, sudo apt-get install xchat-common
[15:49] <joaopinto> gam3r111, how do you identify that you have still wine apps installed ? Do you have menu entries ?
[15:49] <W8TAH> hi - -dumb question i know -- whats the command to add a user to a group?
[15:49] <ASULutzy> gam3r111: What happens when you do exactly this. Click Applications -> Accessories -> terminal, then type rm -rf /home/$USER/.wine/
[15:49] <dimebar> ScaryFast: you can connect to multiple servers in xchat-gnome too
[15:49] <gam3r111> joaopinto i have a wine folder under apps
[15:49] <joaopinto> W8TAH, man usermod
[15:50] <ScaryFast> ubuntu is way nicer than I thought it would be and way nicer than any other flavor of linux I ever tried before. I keep moving the windows around... :P
[15:50] <W8TAH> joaopinto, thanks - major brain cramp today
[15:50] <ASULutzy> gam3r111: If you don't want wine anymore, sudo apt-get purge wine
[15:50] <gam3r111> asuluzy nothing
[15:50] <Chrysalis> negge^: well i didnt i didnt set any usernames or passwords usually i just join the local group on windows to access those
[15:50] <IndyGunFreak> W8TAH: easiest way is system/admin/users and groups
[15:50] <W8TAH> IndyGunFreak, this is cli only -- on a server
[15:50] <IndyGunFreak> W8TAH: gotcha..
[15:50] <jamus> gam3r111,  ''there is no wine ,if u look clearly ull see that it is urself that u cannot uninstall '' :DD
[15:50] <negge^> Chrysalis: I've never used samba but it's supposed to work
[15:50] <Mesiox> ScaryFast: i just started using ubuntu / linux all together, it is awesome!
[15:50] <joaopinto> gam3r111, just rm -rf ~/.local/share/desktop-directories
[15:50] <ASULutzy> gam3r111: Nothing is good, that means it erased everything that was in your wine folder successfully. Now if you want to actually uninstall wine completely, you can do sudo apt-get purge wine
[15:50] <ASULutzy> jamus: that's not really helping ;)
[15:50] <sandman> hi..how do i fix fsck UUID errors from terminal?
[15:51] <amenado> W8TAH-> then modify the /etc/passwd and  /etc/group
[15:51] <W8TAH> amenado, thanks
[15:51] <gam3r111> yea there is no wine installed but i need to delete programs that were under wine
[15:51] <jamus> maybe i should take a five too
[15:51] <gam3r111> some of them wintr un in stall
[15:51] <dimebar> ScaryFast: look in edit, preferences, networks
[15:51] <Mesiox> bazhang: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xC5uEe5OzNQ << see the ubuntu. see the dock? thats the dock im talking bout
[15:51] <joaopinto> amenado, you shouldn't manage passwd and group files directly, it is safer to use the proper commands for it
[15:51] <ScaryFast> yeah, I joined another server
[15:51] <bazhang> Mesiox, looking now
[15:51] <bcardarella> Does anybody else have problems with Transmission? None of my torrents will connect... they just idle and eventually time out. (and I know that they are good torrents)
[15:52] <ScaryFast> in mirc in windows I can hit F1 and it runs a script and joins 2 servers and a dozen channels
[15:52] <ScaryFast> I guess I just miss that :P
[15:52] <IndyGunFreak> bazhang: i think its avant, i've saw that video before.
[15:52] <joaopinto> Scarey, you will need to learn xchat scripting ;)
[15:52] <ScaryFast> yes
[15:52] <bazhang> IndyGunFreak, think you are right
[15:52] <dimebar> ScaryFast: you can set which servers/channels to join automatically using the networks tab in prefs, otherwise yeah learn xchat scripting :)
[15:53] <IndyGunFreak> Scarey: xchat will automatically join two servers.. when i sign on, i join 3... 2 channels each on 2 servers, and 3 channels on 1 server
[15:53] <bazhang> Mesiox, that is beryl and awn (beryl is now compiz-fusion btw)
[15:53] <IdleOne> ScaryFast, click on Xchat again and then Network List. you can edit your server settings there ( add channels to join and servers to auto connect to )
[15:53] <ScaryFast> or I could reboot and see why mirc under wine crashes when I try to use the edit script window :P
[15:53] <Mesiox> bazhang, see that bar tho?
[15:53] <hiptobecubic> what is the difference between curl and wget, functionality wise?
[15:53] <bazhang> Mesiox, earlier version of awn iirc
[15:54] <IndyGunFreak> ScaryFast: why would you use mirc in wine?... thats silly,
[15:54] <ScaryFast> I don't have those options idleone. irc, edit, network, discussion, go, help
[15:54] <Mesiox> bazhang: orly?
[15:54] <bazhang> Mesiox, cairo-dock?
[15:54] <Mesiox> IndyGunFreak: why would it be silly?
[15:54] <smallfoot-> IndyGunFreak, mIRC has alot of functionality
[15:54] <Chrysalis> how do i temporarily run a deamon? /etc/rc.d/deamon start?
[15:54] <IdleOne> ScaryFast, your time would be better spent helping to make xchat better by writing addons/plugins
[15:54] <IdleOne> ScaryFast, install xchat-common from the repositories
[15:54] <sandman> hi..how do i fix fsck UUID errors from terminal?
[15:54] <IndyGunFreak> smallfoot-: and xchat doesn't?
[15:54] <ScaryFast> I did, brb on it :P
[15:55] <sandman> is there any other channel for ubuntu help??
[15:55] <idefix_> so, it is impossible to run java under ubuntu :/
[15:55] <joaopinto> !patience | sandman
[15:55] <ASULutzy> !patience | sandman
[15:55] <joaopinto> idefix_, what is your problem ? I am using java from ubuntu without any problems
[15:55] <idefix_> joaopinto, tell me please how you installed it
[15:55] <smallfoot-> IndyGunFreak, I guess it does too...
[15:56] <idefix_> I tried installing it from synaptic
[15:56] <idefix_> and from normal installation files from the web
[15:56] <erUSUL> !java | idefix_
[15:56] <joaopinto> idefix_, I have installed the openjdk-6-jre package
[15:56] <IndyGunFreak> smallfoot-: linux native software will almost always work better than anything running in wine, no matter what it is.. always best to use linux native aps
[15:58] <db92> how can i play mp4s on ubuntu?
[15:58] <joaopinto> !codecs | db92
[15:58] <IndyGunFreak> db92: w/ the proper codecs, yes. i use vlc to play them, they play fine
[15:59] <bahadunn> howdy
[15:59] <khermans> db92, vlc
[15:59] <oscar-rivas> helo
[15:59] <khermans> db92, sudo aptitude install vlc && vlc
[15:59] <oscar-rivas> hello
[15:59] <oscar-rivas> i need some help
[16:00] <IndyGunFreak> oscar-rivas: you'll have to check in at mind-reading 101
[16:00] <ScaryLptp> okay, I'm in normal x-chat now and it provided me with stuff xchat-gnome did not
[16:00] <bahadunn> I am using irssi and I noticed that when I have terminal tabs open and I go to switch windows in irssi with alt+n instead I am taken to the next terminal tab
[16:00] <ScaryLptp> and I am happier now, but it still needs work
[16:00] <gam3r111> anyone know how to install aim in ubuntu
[16:00] <bahadunn> any ideas how to fix that?
[16:00] <oscar-rivas> hello
[16:00] <bazhang> gam3r111, pidgin
[16:00] <oscar-rivas> i need some help for configure a vpdn
[16:00] <khermans> gam3r111, pidgin
[16:00] <IndyGunFreak> ScaryLptp: well what kind of work do you think it needs?
[16:00] <Mesiox> does wine run the latest windows live messenger?
[16:00] <khermans> oscar-rivas, check out openvpn
[16:00] <oscar-rivas> ok
[16:01] <bazhang> Mesiox, check appdb
[16:01] <abchirk> Mesiox should be so... but why you don't use kopete or pidgin?
[16:01] <gam3r111> no
[16:01] <achilles> does anyone know why when trying to send a in browser message in firefox 3 that it won't send but instead tries to download it. same problem with yahoo can't send email???

[16:01] <ASULutzy> gam3r111: lol, but pidgin has everything aim has plus more?
[16:02] <IndyGunFreak> bazhang: aim used to have a linux version.. not sure if it stil does or not.
[16:02] <gam3r111> yea but i want aim
[16:02] <bazhang> IndyGunFreak, not sure either
[16:02] <khermans> gam3r111, aim is a protocol
[16:02] <IndyGunFreak> bazhang: i used it a LONG time ago, we're talking like Mandriva 7.0...

[16:03] <ASULutzy> gam3r111: If you actually want aim for linux. There's like, an aim 1.5, but it's terribad. You really should use pidgin.

[16:03] <idefix_> joaopinto, XXXX java version? what do they mean by that?
[16:03] <IndyGunFreak> gam3r111: #knowitalls #genius #rocketscientists would be a good place to start

[16:04] <achilles> ASUlutzy: do u know why when trying to send a in browser message in firefox 3 that it won't send but instead tries to download it. same problem with yahoo can't send email???
[16:04] <IndyGunFreak> gam3r111: then i would suggest writing AOL and asking them to write their crappy software for linux, or release the source code so you can.
[16:04] <gam3r111> i just want aim to try out nd stuff but idk how to install it
[16:04] <someone_1> After writing my username, it tells me :Authentication failed

[16:10] <bazhang> gam3r111, /join #pidgin
[16:10] <michalxo> guyvdb_, synaptic or aptitude show glib...(tab,tab)
[16:10] <ASULutzy> gam3r111: Linux is not Windows. Every question you've asked so far can basically be summed up by that.
[16:10] <guyvdb_> michalxo thx
[16:10] <michalxo> can anyone help me, how to get working compiz+hibernation+suspend on toshiba a200?

[16:14] <shader> hola, I'm having trouble getting a davicom DM9009 10/100 nic to work on ubuntu server. The module loaded, and ubuntu recognized the card, but I'm not getting dhcp, and lsmod says that dmfe (the driver) isn't being used by anything. Now what?
[16:14] <c0mrade> is there an effective way of limiting users bandwith usage .. like quota is used for disk usage ?
[16:14] <robvandamn> hey.. I am using Xubuntu.. using Firefox 3.. I installed flash and restricted.. still I cannot watch online movies like youtube and stuff.. :( can anyone tell me how to fix this?
[16:14] <karan> anyone?

[16:15] <dbdii407> PM me
[16:15] <dbdii407> maybe i can help ;)
[16:17] <mumu> how can i copy the whole content of one folder to another folder? I tried "cp -r /sorce /target" but this creates a "source" folder inside a "target" folder. I would like to copy the content. How can i achieve that?
[16:17] <slayton> so I installed kubuntu-desktop and i want to remove it. what is the best way to remove all the KDE stuff while leaving the gnome installation intact
[16:17] <ericpersson> what version of ubuntu refers to edgy?
[16:17] <slayton> mumu cd into the folder
[16:17] <Pici> ericpersson: 6.10 and it is no longer supported as of April 2008.
[16:17] <joaopinto> mumbles, cp -a /source/* /target
[16:17] <slayton> mumu type cp -r * /target
[16:17] <Dark_Shadow2> greetings, how can i "bring up" the network interface before boot, at the position local-premount, to cp a file from an nfs server?
[16:17] <ericpersson> Pici: and the latest stable is?
[16:18] <Pici> ericpersson: 8.04 aka Hardy Heron
[16:18] <jamus> robvandamn,  use flash to see streams (try to have only that for flash objects couse they will collide )
[16:18] <joaopinto> ericpersson, www.ubuntu.com is also a good place to check
[16:18] <ericpersson> Pici: i see, i wonder if my mythtvbox should survive an "upgrade"... :)
[16:18] <mumu> slayton, is there no command that works from everywhere?
[16:18] <ericpersson> joaopinto: been around there but didnt really find what i needed..
[16:18] <slayton> sure try:
[16:19] <Pici> ericpersson: If its running 6.10 you'll need to upgrade to 7.04, then 7.10 then 8.04.  There is not an upgrade path right from 6.10
