[18:36] <p> anirudh0: perhaps i can change the permissions of this shit msc partition
[18:36] <jrib> cecc: is your / world writable?
[18:36] <Rainarrow> anirudh0, I'm apt-getting it
[18:36] <k31to> Uplink: whats the issue?
[18:36] <jocke> What is the output if you type uname -o in a terminal in Hardy Heron?
[18:36] <bobboy> !firefox
[18:36] <cecc> jrib yes
[18:36] <Rainarrow> anirudh0, but it didn't notify me about the missing of this program, either
[18:37] <Uplink> k31to, my sound driver not loading or IDK! but i get NO sound at all!
[18:37] <bobboy> !audacious

[18:37] <jrib> cecc: so don't make it world writable, that's pretty silly
[18:37] <axisys_> ihcus: hmm..
[18:37] <anirudh0> Rainarrow, it would have tried to start..then quietly exited with an error...
[18:37] <fde> k31to: No sound for an ATI sound card... you know what module they would use?
[18:37] <k31to> Uplink: what card? did this ever work?
[18:37] <cecc> how to do change it not writable?
[18:37] <anirudh0> anyone...does hfs allow permissions?
[18:37] <Uplink> k31to,  of course!
[18:37] <jrib> cecc: how did you make it writable?
[18:37] <jrib> !who | cecc
[18:37] <axisys_> ihcus: ok just paste your log in http://paste.ubuntu.com
[18:37] <p> anirudh0: and how do i have the permissions
[18:37] <cecc> ok
[18:37] <Rainarrow> anirudh0, nope, I got command not found when tried to run update-manager, and after I apt-get install it everything is ok
[18:38] <axisys_> ihcus: so we can see what wifi issue u r having
[18:38] <anirudh0> p http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/misc/109310-hfs-read-write-all-users.html
[18:38] <k31to> Uplink: have you gone into sound settings and run the test with different configs?
[18:38] <fde> anirudh0: HFS is about the worst FS in existence... maybe second only to HFS+ - which is what Mac's use.
[18:38] <bobboy> so how do the repositories work exactly? like ff3 rc1 still is not in there and the new update for audacious is not there
[18:38] <Rainarrow> anirudh0, it's just that I didn't get any error msg or anything about the missing of update-manager
[18:38] <justme_> Chrysalis, still there?
[18:38] <ihcus> axisys_: couldnot trigger wireless scan:network is down..cat:pastebinit : no such file or directory
[18:38] <Uplink> k31to, it was working PERFECT until some stupid LINUX UPDATE... after that my sound started to distortionate... so i thought it was the driver and i blacklisted it... now i get NO sound at all
[18:38] <anirudh0> fde strange...so many people like apple
[18:38] <jrib> !timebasedreleases > bobboy (read the private message from ubottu)
[18:38] <Uplink> k31to, YES

[18:38] <justme_> anybody, will 8.10 bring better support for mobile PCs?
[18:39] <legend2440> i have the 2.6.24-16-generic kernel. should update manager be offering the 2.6.24-17-generic any time soon? i guess some people have it already
[18:39] <jrib> cecc: you didn't answer my question:  How did you make it world writable?
[18:39] <axisys_> ihcus: how are you talking here w/o internet?
[18:39] <k31to> Uplink: you need to take it off the blacklist.
[18:39] <axisys_> ihcus: use a usb
[18:39] <Vikketorr> Anyone have any idea?
[18:39] <axisys_> ihcus: copy it
[18:39] <Uplink> k31to, I DID!
[18:39] <cecc> jrib  i have no idea

[18:39] <cecc> jrib ni
[18:39] <k31to> Uplink: shit! sounds like there's an issue there!" lol
[18:39] <anirudh0> Vikketorr, not a fix....but you could manually switch layouts with a gnome panel applet
[18:39] <cecc> jrib no
[18:39] <Uplink> k31to, :(
[18:39] <legend2440> zaphar_ps: through update manager?
[18:39] <Odd-rationale> Vikketorr: the best way would be to set your keyboard variant in the xorg file. that way, it will load that keyboard layout whenever you are in X
[18:39] <k31to> Flare183: it wasn't me! lol
[18:39] <zaphar_ps> legend2440: yes

[18:45] <axisys_> ihcus: then paste it here http://paste.ubuntu.com

[18:45] <ApOgEE-> any ideas why?
[18:45] <lnar> anirudh0, sure it can
[18:45] <k31to> Uplink: does lsmod show the snd-atiixp driver as loaded?

[18:49] <Uplink> now i need help with pidgin :(

[18:49] <Jack_Sparrow> STSX I told him he could do either of those ways

[18:50] <Odd-rationale> Vikketorr: also, you could (if you wanted) get rid of the keyboard layout applet switch and change your keyboard layout to default. as the one set in the xorg.conf file will become the default. (i'm not too sure how this is done in gnome, as i use kde)
[18:50] <Vegombrei> hi i neewd help with configuring apache
[18:50] <STSX> Chrysalis: Agreed, and that should be easy to do.
[18:50] <bobboy> to update firefox should i use the cli or do a sudo firefox and use firefox's built in updater?
[18:50] <anirudh0> p to "dev/sda1 /media/sda1  hfsplus  noauto,user,rw 0 0 "
[18:50] <Broadcom> Vegombrei: just ask a question
[18:50] <zaphar_ps> shishirmk: that will tell you what errors the webserver might have returned
[18:50] <anirudh0> p remove the "defaults"
[18:50] <anirudh0> p default behaviour is read-only
[18:51] <Chrysalis> STSX: the main reason why i was here though was cause i now have like 10 entries since updating the kernel (ubuntu for each kernel)
[18:51] <anirudh0> p leaving now..hope this works

[18:51] <seebel> hello, i just ran an update on my ubuntu desktop and it updated the kernel to 2.6.24-17-generic and now virtualbox-ose seems to be broken. read some articles on how to update virtualbox to use the new kernel, but no luck. Tried "sudo dpkg-reconfigure virtualbox-ose" , tried "/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup" only to discover that the relevant setup parts have been removed for ubuntu. Can someone tell me what is the correct way to reconfigure virtualbox to use a new
[18:51] <STSX> Chrysalis: Yes, then I would definitely delete them from your menu.lst if I were you.
[18:52] <kbrosnan> bobboy: firefox's updater is disbled if you use ubuntu's version
[18:52] <zaphar_ps> shishirmk: enclose url in quotes after wget
[18:52] <zaphar_ps> it's only sending part of the url
[18:52] <bobboy> kbrosnan: if you sudo firefox than the updater is enabled
[18:52] <fde> seebel: The correct virtualbox module is in updates-proposed, can you go without it until it makes it into regular updates?
[18:52] <STSX> bobboy: Why not just enable the correct repository and download/install it with Synaptic? Like that link I sent you.... http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-firefox-3-rc1-in-ubuntu-hardy.html
[18:52] <zaphar_ps> the & character has meaning for the terminal so it stops at the first one it encounters
[18:52] <kbrosnan> bobboy: then you are not using the ubuntu version
[18:53] <cecc> jrib thank you
[18:53] <Jack_Sparrow> bobboy Why would you ever sudo firefox.. that is not a good idea
[18:53] <Chrysalis> STSX: doesnt the old kernel get replaced when upgrading?  i dont need those entries do i?
[18:53] <AcornAcorn> how do you make it so Applications, Places and System are all contained in one menu so they take up less space?
[18:53] <fde> seebel: It shouldn't be long... maybe a week?
[18:53] <bobboy> kbrosnan: k
[18:53] <kbrosnan> Jack_Sparrow: to run the updater
[18:53] <seebel> i can go without it for about 15 days ... is it possible for it to reach regular updates within that time?
[18:53] <Jack_Sparrow> kbrosnan sudo any gui app is not a good idea
[18:53] <bobboy> Jack_Sparrow: wasnt thinking but i now realize how much of a threat that can be lol
[18:54] <fde> AcornAcorn: right click panel > Add to Panel > "Main Menu"... then remove the Menu Bar
[18:54] <akahige> I tried converting Xubuntu to Ubuntu and all I managed to do was kill my desktop. Is there anyway I can fix this from the console...?
[18:54] <p> how do i get opening the shit fstab file
[18:54] <bobboy> STSX: in the comments it said something like people should not use PPA's whatever they are and thats where i got the idea for the sudo firefox
[18:54] <lnar> p sudo gedit /etc/fstab
[18:54] <indio> What are "default mixer tracks" ?
[18:54] <DaveKong> Does anyone know how to compile a kernel module?

[18:55] <p> lnar: does it works with nano?? no or
[18:55] <AcornAcorn> fde: thankyou so much!
[18:55] <Jack_Sparrow> !compile
[18:55] <STSX> Chrysalis: I don't think the kernel get replaced by default, but I'm not sure. You can at least get rid of the entries in your menu.lst though if you don't want them.
[18:55] <lnar> Jack_Sparrow, whats the difference between using sudo and gksudo?
[18:55] <p> lnar: thanks
[18:55] <fde> DaveKong: aptitude install module-assistant will get you the depends... then just follow the instructions it provides.
[18:55] <Jack_Sparrow> lnar sudo gui app is dangerous
[18:55] <indio> What are "default mixer tracks" ?
[18:55] <Jack_Sparrow> !gksudo

[19:02] <naresh> oh
[19:02] <LordOllie> santor, no. There is no other method I know of, but you could probably writeup a little app to do such.
[19:02] <lnar> kbrosnan, why would u sudo firefox if u can use it as regular user? u are supposed to use sudo for changin some system files but not much mure

[19:05] <santor> lordollie can a .deb file run a script after installing, that would make it a lot easier, then you'd just have to convince those who maintain the packages to have them launch some type of usage document upon finishing

[19:09] <LordOllie> santor, you could always generate a doc link to the desktop or some such that links to a manpage or other help/getting started and then is cleaned up after a certain period of time.
[19:09] <Gladiator> Yea, it works fine in windows.

[19:12] <Gladiator> Right, amendo, that's nice, but a few months ago I fixed the problem without using that command and using pastebin.
[19:12] <barbarella> Rixon-:you can run netstat -ant to see if a service is listening or established
[19:13] <amenado> FelipeS-> only during an install, after that, you must manually edit the menu.lst  file
[19:13] <fde> bremby: need an pulseaudio plugins for audacious.
[19:13] <santor> Rixon-: right, i didnt' know if you where gonna start it tho or if you needed to look for connections when you started it
[19:13] <bobboy> STSX: will the update for audacious be included in the repositories eventually too?
[19:13] <FelipeS> amenado: Where can I find some guidelines to add a Fedora installation?
[19:13] <remoteCTRL> i always get an error when i want to access the drive, always something like Unable to open 'dvd:///dev/scd0'
[19:14] <Gladiator> It's a Broadcom BCM4328
[19:14] <amenado> Gladiator okay, well if we mis-interpret what you have, and give you advise based on that...then thats how its going to be
[19:14] <Thoku> FelipeS: It is really easy to change menu.lst. Just man grub.conf or menu.lst
[19:14] <maximumbob> amenado: I tried adding auto eth0/iface eth0 inet dhcp to that file, restart networking, but as DHCP tries to do it's thing, I get the same 'invalid arg' error plus: "send_packet: Network is down"'s
[19:15] <amenado> FelipeS-> you can google for grub tutorial

[19:15] <santor> x_: unfortunately that would be quite hard but if you search for an ubuntu Hardware compatability list you can find one that will work well
[19:16] <FelipeS> amenado: there seems to be no concrete guideline. Some add just a rootnoverify(xxx) chainloader +1, some others actually tell you to list the kernel running
[19:16] <oli__> Hi I've rajjed my compiz setup so X locks up. How can I kill the config?
[19:16] <soifran> i got a problem with ffmpeg : ffmpeg: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libavcodec.so.51: undefined symbol: faacDecOpen
[19:16] <maximumbob> amenado, I posted it above: "auto lo eth0 / iface lo inet loopback / iface eth0 inet dhcp"
[19:16] <Kl4m> enry: probably a big part of the ubuntu user base is american
[19:16]  * maximumbob is USian
[19:17] <enry> Kl4m, i love USA
[19:17] <amenado> FelipeS-> http://users.bigpond.net.au/hermanzone/p15.htm is a  good link i used for reference
[19:17] <santor> USA here too!
[19:17] <ajopaul> when i launch gparted, i get the message Can't have overlapping partitions.
[19:17] <ajopaul> here's my sudo fdisk -l http://paste.ubuntu.com/14848/
[19:17] <santor> well guys, i can't keep up with this chat and still get work done so ttyl
[19:17] <amenado> maximumbob-> then that is wrong to have a / on that file
[19:17] <Vikketor1> Proably not the right to post this question but anyway. Does anyone know a dist that runs smooth on a P3 with 128 mb ram.
[19:18] <maximumbob> amenado: I was using / to denote linebreak so as not to multiline post on IRC
[19:18] <philsf> anyone knows what kind of tty is ttyv2 ?
[19:18] <fde> oli__: rm -r ~/.compiz
[19:18] <aruiz> Vikketor1: Xubuntu
[19:18] <x_> santor: Thanks!
[19:18] <smeril> is there any alternetive to use when gedit frezes?
[19:18] <magnetron> soifran: the version of ffmpeg that's shipping doesn't support AAC sound, since that would infringe on software patents in the US. the version of ffmpeg in the medibuntu repository supports AAC though.
[19:18] <magnetron> !medibuntu | soifran
[19:18] <Gladiator> How can I get my laptop running an integrated Broadcom BCM4328 to work?
[19:18] <amenado> maximumbob-> as i've said i can easily mis-interpret, so it is best if you find a way to paste it
[19:18] <fde> smeril: nano
[19:18] <cypha> why did gedit freeze?
[19:18] <FelipeS> amenado: thanks. Will checki t out.
[19:19] <amenado> maximumbob-> its like you do your part and ill try my best to assist
[19:19] <darrend> oli__: rm -r ~/.gconf/apps/compiz
[19:19] <Kl4m> smeril: vim (console text editor) or nano support really big files somewhat better
[19:19] <oli__> darrend ty
[19:19] <Kl4m> ajopaul: it seems you do have overlapping partitions
[19:19] <smeril> how do i acces sudo gedit /etc/X11/Xsession.d/55gnome-session_gnomerc
[19:19] <smeril> ?
[19:19] <ajopaul> Kl4m, any fixes without doing all from scratch ?
[19:20] <amenado> Gladiator-> http://www.unix-tutorials.com/go.php?id=575  try this tutorial
[19:20] <Kl4m> ajopaul: I'm still trying to figure that partition table... :/
[19:20] <_DonDon> Hi guys, I am in the Live CD for Ubuntu 8.04 trying to uninstall Ubuntu by deleting the partitions that Ubuntu made (ext3 and linux-swap), and I cant delete either of them because it says they're mounted. Can you please tell me how to unmount both of those partitions?
[19:20] <maximumbob> amenado: http://paste.ubuntu.com/14850/ - I just figured it was simple enough not to have to paste, but here 'tis.
[19:20] <jocke> What is the output if you type uname -o in a terminal in Hardy Heron?
[19:20] <ajopaul> ok!!
[19:20] <remoteCTRL> gosh guys can anyone please tell me how i can play my brand new pink floyd live at pompeji dvd?
[19:21] <dmsuperman> _DonDon, sudo umount -a
[19:21] <robg_> DonDon: You need Gparted to delete partitions
[19:21] <epsi> hey guys
[19:21] <soifran> magnetron -> i've already set the medibuntu repository, then updated && upgraded my packges ; actually i can't even check which version of ffmpeg is installed caus i'm getting this answer : ffmpeg: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libavcodec.so.51: undefined symbol: faacDecOpen
[19:21] <storm-zen> I'm getting ata2.00 exceptions repeatedly, but the messages are all zeros.  (There appears to be no actual data in them.)  Has anyone seen this?
[19:21] <dmsuperman> _DonDon, that will unmount all partitions that aren't currently in use, and throw an error for the ones that are in use
[19:21] <mediaportalx> remoteCTRL install codecs
[19:21] <magnus_> omg my ext3 disk is configured as ntfs in fstab is that Dangerous?
[19:21] <dmsuperman> _DonDon, if you know where they're mounted at, you could simply do "sudo umount /PATH/TO/MOUNT/POINT" for each partition you want ot unmount
[19:21] <amenado> maximumbob-> do a  sudo lshw -C network  lets see what your system detects as your network nics
[19:22] <Gladiator> amenado, I don't know where the driver for it is in windows
[19:22] <dmsuperman> magnus_, I'd say that if it's mounting then it is an NTFS partition, and not EXT3 as you think it is
[19:22] <_DonDon> It says they're busy
[19:22] <magnetron> soifran: apparently something wrong with libavcodec or faac
[19:22] <remoteCTRL> mediaportalx: i guess that wouldnt clear the Unable to open 'dvd:///dev/scd0' error, would it?
[19:22] <Metox> Hi all, does amd64 support surround sound on realtek AC97' ?
[19:22] <magnetron> !surround | Metox
[19:22] <Kl4m> ajopaul: ok the problem is not overlapping partitions, it's that your partition table is unordered. Do you know which software created that table? partition magic?
[19:22] <amenado> maximumbob-> per what you pasted, its okay, but somehow your driver has not activated your nic yet
[19:22] <dmsuperman> _DonDon, if you are SURE that it's safe to unmount them, use the -f flag to force the unmount
[19:22] <mediaportalx> remoteCTRL sounds like a scrthed cd
[19:22] <AlphaOmega> hello
[19:22] <amenado> Gladiator-> i dont know either, so you have to google and locate it
[19:23] <Oli``> darrend: thank you, again
[19:23] <AlphaOmega> i have ubuntu 8.04 in vmware, eth0 was working, after reboot, ifconfig only lists lo0,   any ideas?
[19:23] <bremby> today, after I installed some apps, Audacity among them (not Audacious), my Totem Player got "damaged" - When I double click on some file to play it in Totem, after 1-2 seconds after start short loop is once repeated, but then disappears immeadieately, and the sound is then alright. Just the beginning is wrong, and very anoying
[19:23] <AlphaOmega> how do i get etho0 back?
[19:23] <maximumbob> amenado: Everything there is in order, has product, vendor, size, clock, etc etc... though at the top it says "*-network DISABLED" so I guess that's what I have to fix
[19:23] <bremby> anyone?
[19:23] <magnus_> dmsuperman: you are right its not mounted
[19:23] <remoteCTRL> mediaportalx: a what cd please?
[19:23] <Bits> each time i try to enable advanced desktop effects in System>Appearances in 7.10, it prompts me for nvidia driver installation. after clicking yes and restarting, it still prompts me
[19:23] <ajopaul> Kl4m, had vista initially shrunk c drive and used rest of the space for ubuntu, had some unallocated space left, used gparted to create a drive out of it
[19:23] <amenado> maximumbob-> yep thats the clue.. -network Disabled  so you have to fix that one
[19:23] <mediaportalx> remote
[19:23] <ajopaul> no not partition magic
[19:23] <mediaportalx> i mean dvd lol
[19:23] <bremby> Bits: Are you sure you have the driver installed?
[19:23] <_DonDon> so should I do sudo umount -f or sudo umount -a -f
[19:24] <epsi> hey, today i got my eeepc, now i tried to install ubuntu 8.04, over a usb stick, using this tutorial: http://www.teamteabag.com/2008/03/07/install-ubuntu-804-hardy-heron-from-usb/, but it only flashes the underline and it wont start the bootmenu :/ anyone experience with that?
[19:24] <Bits> bremby: how can i be sure, asides from clicking the "install driver" button (thought it was self-evident)
[19:24] <maximumbob> amenado: how? And for the record, another ubuntu desktop install I have has the bare interfaces file (just lo) but wired still works there.
[19:24] <_DonDon> so should I do sudo umount -f or sudo umount -a -f
[19:24] <killakali408650> hey guys
[19:24] <ApOgEE-> hi all... i just noticed that my /home partition's free space is reducing on every click i made to browse the folders... two days ago i have 1.2GB free space. without adding any new files, now i only have about 1.5MB free space. what is happening? any ideas?
[19:24] <Metox> magnetron - if that's a yes, how do I get that to work? I fiddled around alsamixer (installed the package), turned up the surround, but no luck.
[19:25] <killakali408650> im installing ubuntu on my laptop today
[19:25] <magnetron> Metox: sorry, i don't know
[19:25] <koheleth> does the Gnome xchat minimise to the notification tray?
[19:25] <ajopaul> Kl4m, from fdisk tired fix partition order, rebooted still the prob persists..
[19:25] <killakali408650> just had a couple of questions
[19:25] <bremby> Bits: Go to System->Administration-> Synaptic
[19:25] <amenado> maximumbob-> which vendor is this card from? wireless or wired?
[19:25] <koheleth> !xchat
[19:25] <ArthurArchnix> Hi..  this is super bad and weird. I did "sudo apt-get update", then "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" but my internet dropped out while it was downloading packages. Now I can't sudo anything. Everytime I use sudo it returns segmentation fault. Sudo fdisk -l equals segmentation fault. sudo apt-get clean returns segementation fault. Non sudo commands work fine.
[19:25] <remoteCTRL> mediaportalx: a what dvd then please? i dont understand the term scrthed
[19:25] <maximumbob> amenado: wired, SiS900 PCI Fast Ethernet
[19:25] <dmsuperman> _DonDon, the preferred way to do it would be "sudo umount -f /PATH/TO/MOUNT/POINT" but if you aren't sure where it's mounted you can check by entering "sudo df" in your terminal
[19:25] <killakali408650> sooo lol anyone there 2 answer 2day??
[19:26] <dmsuperman> _DonDon, I'd advise against ever entering "sudo umount -a -f" because it would unmount the partiton that ubuntu is currently on
[19:26] <amenado> maximumbob-> on that lshw -C network   what driver it indicated is it attempting to use?
[19:26] <Metox> Any body know if AMD64 supports surround 4.1 on AC'97
[19:26] <bremby> Bits: with that program, you can search through all packages you have installed, so, search for "nvidia" and one of the drivers there should be checked as "installed"
[19:26] <ArthurArchnix> I've tried rebooting, but since that only tends to work with Windows, it obviously didn't fix my problem.
[19:26] <killakali408650> i guess not :(
[19:26] <maximumbob> amenado: I think this is what you're asking - it says "module=sis900"
[19:27] <soifran> "magnetron: soifran: apparently something wrong with libavcodec or faac" yes, but wht ?
[19:27] <_DonDon> dmsuperman: I am on a Live CD, trying to delete the Ubuntu partitions and it says its Unable to delete /dev/sda5 and "Please unmount any logical partitions having a number higher than 5"
[19:27] <bremby> Bits: probably the packages' name should be "nvidia-glx-new", if you have newer computer
[19:27] <amenado> maximumbob-> if its pasted, no mis-translations..so am not sure..
[19:28] <dmsuperman> _DonDon, if you're sure that you don't need it then you could unmount it
[19:28] <Flannel> ArthurArchnix: Reboot to the recovery console (at GRUB, select recovery console), and try to finish the upgrade, or at least fix sudo.
[19:28] <magnetron> soifran: if i knew i would of course have told you
[19:28] <amenado> maximumbob-> there may be another entry that says  driver=
[19:28] <_DonDon> I just did "sudo umount -f /dev/sda5" and it said invalid argument, not mounted
[19:28] <maximumbob> amenado: ah yes, sorry missed it: driver also =sis900
[19:28] <cypha> what programs can compare text files?
[19:28] <_DonDon> But why is GParted telling me its unable to delete the partition
[19:28] <dmsuperman> _DonDon, that's the device, not the mount point
[19:28] <cypha> and show the differences
[19:28] <ArthurArchnix> sure... I suppose I could reboot into single user mode... and try and finish the update. But unless that magically fixes sudo... and why would it break? Oh well, no choice but to try it I suppose.
[19:29] <bremby> anyone, experienced problems with Audacity????
[19:29] <nickolaus> I have a fresh install of ubuntu Hardy and I want to get some files off of my windows network.
[19:29] <ArthurArchnix> It hadn't even started installing, it was still downloading.
[19:29] <amenado> maximumbob-> do you have that in /lib/firmware/`uname -r`  ?
[19:29] <robg_> DonDon: gparted contains complex [partition logic. Believe gparted.
[19:29] <ArthurArchnix> Anyway, off to go try it. Thanks flannel
[19:29] <dmsuperman> _DonDon, do "sudo df" to see your mount points
[19:29] <soifran> thanks to all
[19:29] <_DonDon> okay so i did "sudo umount -f /" and it said Device or resource busy
[19:29] <Flannel> ArthurArchnix: Could be you were upgrading sudo when you broke, or who knows.  In S.U.M. it'll tell you what you should do to fix apt (probably a reconfigure/similar)
[19:29] <soifran> thanks magnetron
[19:29] <maximumbob> amenado: interestingly no
[19:29] <soifran> by
[19:29] <nickolaus> When I load the windows computers I can't see any of the files.
[19:29] <soifran> bye
[19:30] <Myles> can I just force a screen resolution? I did everything from 'FixVideoResolutionHowto' but no luck :(
[19:30] <magnus_> how do i add a new disk to fstab?
[19:30] <_DonDon> okay so i did "sudo umount -f /" and it said Device or resource busy
[19:30] <amenado> maximumbob-> and then maybe you have to look in  /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/net/wireless  or somewhere in ubuntu/net/wireless
[19:30] <Oli``> Is there anything available to fix this firefox fsync issue? it takes an age to type URLs or load my history
[19:30] <dmsuperman> _DonDon, then I'm not sure what's wrong
[19:30] <ricket> is firefox 3 rc1 available to install on ubuntu? if so, how?? beta 5 crashes often and my experience on windows has had no crashes since i upgraded to rc1, i want to do the same here on linux!!
[19:30] <Flannel> _DonDon: You'd be unmounting their locations in the current filesystem (probably in /media), / is your liveCD
[19:31] <redcode> someone facing problems with conky when a network device is up but NOT connected?
[19:31] <Jaikkuli> i cannot see the items on my desktop.. i disabled show desktop in gconf-editor.. but even after changing the value back to true.. the desktop doesnt work normal again.. help please?\
[19:31] <Jaikkuli> i have tried rebooting
[19:31] <nickolaus> So it is normal to not be able to view windows network file systems?
[19:31] <Oli``> ricket: could that be plugin-related? I've found moving to Flash Player 10 has improved things a lot but your mileage will vary
[19:31] <bremby> Bits: so, any progress so far?
[19:32] <ajopaul> !fstab
[19:32] <Kl4m> ajopaul: are you sure you wrote back the changes to the table
[19:32] <ricket> Oli``: maybe... on windows it was definitely linked to my upgrade to rc1 tho, right up until the final day of beta 5 it continued to crash several times a day at seemingly-random times...
[19:32] <maximumbob> amenado: nothing, though I did come across this - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=274453 and this - http://www.brownhat.org/sis900.html
[19:32] <_DonDon> so I went to the media part and so i would unmount /media/disk ?
[19:32] <Broadcom> !firefox3 | ricket
[19:33] <nickolaus> Why can't I see windows folders over my network?
[19:33] <ajopaul> Kl4m, yes i did, after that wen i do the same command i get Nothing to do Ordering is correct already !
[19:33] <amenado> maximumbob-> that may want to do, download the correct driver for your nic..
[19:33] <ajopaul> !partitions
[19:33] <amenado> maximumbob-> i dont even recall sis makes network card, i thought they were video company
[19:33] <ricket> Broadcom: thanks but that message doesn't make much sense and doesn't help me :) but actually i just found a site that does help me... so i guess my problem's fixed!
[19:33] <usser> !opera
[19:33] <mohbana> is hardy automatically configured to detect windows pcs on the network?
[19:33] <XDS2010> hi
[19:34] <maximumbob> amenado: I think it's all integrated stuff
[19:34] <Broadcom> mohbana: did you set up the windows pc to share?
[19:34] <_DonDon> It says /tmp, /dev/shm, /dev,
[19:34] <Flannel> nickolaus: You need to install samba
[19:34] <Broadcom> !hi | XDS2010
[19:34] <Flannel> !samba | nickolaus
[19:34] <_DonDon> and /var/run are busy
[19:34] <dmsuperman> mohbana, as far as I've used it it has been
[19:34] <XDS2010> ^.^
[19:34] <Woet> why doesnt ubuntu regonize my wireless?
[19:34] <dmsuperman> right
[19:34] <Woet> previous version did.
[19:34] <amenado> maximumbob-> oh okay, well maybe you have to get yourself an external ethernet card if this dont work, they come cheap anyways
[19:34] <mohbana> dmsuperman: does fedora do the same?
[19:34] <remoteCTRL> gawd dammit this f+++in dvd seems to have some sort of copy protection that prevents me from playing it what  can i do against that?
[19:34] <Broadcom> Woet: it depends, what card do you have?
[19:34] <Woet> i have no idea
[19:35] <Woet> the cheapest HP laptop basicly
[19:35] <dmsuperman> mohbana, I wouldn't see why not, but I don't use fedora it on a windows network
[19:35] <Flannel> !dvd | remoteCTRL
[19:35] <XDS2010> dink you here ?
[19:35] <nickolaus> Thank you.
[19:35] <Broadcom> Woet do lspci and pu the result in pastebin
[19:35] <_DonDon> It says /tmp, /dev/shm, /dev, and /var/run are busy when i do "sudo umount -a /media/disk" and when i do "sudo umount -f /media/disk" it just give me a new chance to type in another command
[19:35] <redcode> someone using conky here? maybe on a UMPC 2133?
[19:35] <Woet> Broadcom: cant, since it doesnt have internet
[19:36] <yoursfaithfully> Hi - has anyone else had any problems with the latest kernel upgrade?  it killed my wifi, and reinstalling madwifi didn't help (which is all I had to do to get wifi working after upgrading to Hardy).
[19:36] <amenado> _DonDon-> what is the reason you wanted to unmount these filesystems?
[19:36] <Broadcom> Woet: can you connect it via wired?
[19:36] <Kl4m> ajopaul: so fdisk says the partition table is ok and the system otherwise works fine? If so then it could (should) be a parted / gparted bug
[19:36] <Peter_bz> Hello, I am on ubuntu 8.04, and I have a problem. My sound works fine on the desktop, with the firefox and other stuff, but when I try to play bzflag or tremulous, stuff like that, the sound doesn't work. On bzflag it displays, "audio driver not available". What do I do to fix it?
[19:36] <Woet> no, no wires left
[19:36] <Broadcom> yoursfaithfully: what wireless?
[19:36] <remoteCTRL> Flannel: ahaaaaaaaaaaaa thank you so much man!
[19:36] <amenado> Woet-> you have a usb dongle? if not, copy it manually..youhave to do your part
[19:36] <ajopaul> Kl4m, was speculating that too..
[19:36] <yoursfaithfully> Broadcom: I'm using madwifi, I have an atheros chipset on a laptop
[19:36] <ajopaul> anyways let me c, thanx
[19:36] <nickolaus> I know this is stupid but I have samba installed how do I start it/use it?
[19:36] <XDS2010> blah blah blah
[19:37] <Ojoo> I have a question, hoping someone can help. My computer is using a proprietary driver for my wireless card, but when I go into Admin > Network all it shows is Wired Connection and Point to Point, no wireless Any help please?
[19:37] <_DonDon> amenado, I am in the Live CD of Ubuntu 8.04, trying to uninstall Ubuntu in GParted and it says Its Unable, and that I should unmount any logical partitions having a number high than 5
[19:37] <Woet> Broadcom: for some reason, you seem to be the name of my network controller
[19:37] <yoursfaithfully> Oh, specifically I have a patched madwifi for my chipset
[19:37] <Peter_bz> can anyone help?
[19:37] <Broadcom> Woet: so put the cable that is in the computer you are using now into the one you are having trouble with
[19:37] <amenado> nickolaus-> do a lil tutorial on samba, perhaps lots of your questions will be answered
[19:37] <Broadcom> Woet: lol, there is a reason for that
[19:37] <Broadcom> Peter_bz: | ask
[19:37] <fde> Ojoo: If you're using ndiswrapper, it will show as a wired connection, because that is how it is seen.
[19:37] <Peter_bz> I did
[19:37] <Flannel> nickolaus: On the page that ubotu gave you there are instructions
[19:37] <fde> Ojoo: ndiswrapper is a nasty hack
[19:37] <Peter_bz> I am on ubuntu 8.04, and I have a problem. My sound works fine on the desktop, with the firefox and other stuff, but when I try to play bzflag or tremulous, stuff like that, the sound doesn't work. On bzflag it displays, "audio driver not available"
[19:38] <Broadcom> Woet: what is the name?
[19:38] <node357> Peter_bz, I have no sound in ZSNES too, nobody could help me :/
[19:38] <Ojoo> what is ndiswrapper? and how do i know if i am using it?
[19:38] <Broadcom> !ndiswrapper | Ojoo
[19:38] <fde> node357: You need to set it to use esd
[19:38] <_DonDon> amenado, I am in the Live CD of Ubuntu 8.04, trying to uninstall Ubuntu in GParted and it says Its Unable, and that I should unmount any logical partitions having a number high than 5
[19:38] <amenado> _DonDon-> if i read you correctly, you are trying to uninstall and ubuntu?  same as you are booted from or one that is in the hard disk?
[19:38] <node357> okay fde thanks
[19:38] <gene_> irc.velocityirc.net
[19:38] <_DonDon> No no, I am trying to install Ubuntu 8.04 from the Live CD by deleting the partitions by using gparted
[19:39] <_DonDon> UNINSTALL* sorry
[19:39] <Broadcom> !prefix | _DonDon
[19:39] <Flannel> _DonDon: What are you going to install instead?
[19:39] <robg_> amenado: is possible, a completely empty disk.
[19:39] <amenado> _DonDon-> what are you trying to un-install ?
[19:39] <_DonDon> Flannel, I have WinXP on the machine that I'm going to use
[19:39] <mib_kdcftb> I'm attempting to install `X11::GUITest' in Perl with the command `sudo perl -e shell -MCPAN', but I get the error `make had returned bad status, install seems impossible'.
[19:39] <_DonDon> amenado, I am trying to UNINSTALL Ubuntu 8.04
[19:39] <amenado> robg_-> what is possible?
[19:40] <amenado> _DonDon-> is the 8.04 already installed on the hard disk?
[19:40] <_DonDon> amenado, yes
[19:40] <robg_> amenado: wiping your disk clean with gparted.
[19:40] <nickolaus> I did, but I guess my question is if samba has a GUI or can I only use via terminal?
[19:40] <Flannel> _DonDon: You just need to unmoun the two partitions, which you probably already did when you did umount /media/disk and it didn't say anything.  No error message means success.
[19:40] <amenado> _DonDon-> dont even try to uninstall, just format the partition where it is installed.. that will take care of it
[19:40] <magnus_> why does not all disks have an UUID?
[19:40] <mib_kdcftb> The build has a lot of problems in the file GUITest.xs--so many that gnome-terminal's scrollback isn't long enough.
[19:41] <Broadcom> !prefix
[19:41] <killakali408650> guys i need help with installing ubuntu
[19:41] <amenado> robg_-> oh okay, got yah
[19:41] <Broadcom> killakali408650: ask a question
[19:41] <killakali408650> i was told yesterday to shrink the vista partition using vista's tools
[19:41] <killakali408650> and then install ubuntu on the new space
[19:41] <_DonDon> amenado: I can't touch the partitions PERIOD because it says they're mounted
[19:41] <killakali408650> but what is gparted?
[19:41] <Jaikkuli> silly question.. i am having a mind blank.. how to do make more than one gnome panels on the desktop
[19:41] <robg_> amenado: in that case you can only access the computer through the CD-ROM drive.
[19:41] <killakali408650> do i have to use gparted??
[19:41] <navetz> does anyone know how to view all the computers on your network?
[19:42] <Broadcom> Jaikkuli: right click, click add pannel
[19:42] <maximumbob> amenado: I don't really understand it... Googling lets me know that ubuntu usually does fine with sis900, and lspci has it showing fine too.
[19:42] <szx0> Does anyone know of a good video capture/xawtv/cctv IRC channel???
[19:42] <Broadcom> !samba | navetz
[19:42] <killakali408650> i used vista's tools to just shrink the vista partition to make room for the ubuntu partition
[19:42] <nickolaus> I ran Kubuntu for a short time and there was a samba GUI via a browser is there such a thing in Ubuntu?
[19:42] <navetz> Broadcom: is there a way to mount a computer on my network without samba
[19:42] <Broadcom> !samba | nickolaus
[19:42] <maximumbob> nickolaus: called SWAT
[19:42] <amenado> _DonDon-> do it over, reboot to the liveCd and then we can assist you from there, basically  fdisk /dev/sda  and then select the correct partition to format
[19:42] <aruiz> Nicke_: you can browse the network through the places menu
[19:42] <Broadcom> navetz: if it is ubuntu
[19:43] <aruiz> nickolaus: : you can browse the network through the places menu
[19:43] <Reenen> how do you change the default text editor?
[19:43] <dmsuperman> Does anybody know how I can get the UUID of a partition? Right now my fstab mounts /dev/sdXY as various mountpoints, but if I ever change my partitions I'm sure that'll mess it all up
[19:43] <navetz> Broadcom: ok, is there a GUI for samba?
[19:43] <ajopaul> Reenen, on a terminal ?
[19:43] <amenado> maximumbob-> paste the results of your  lspci and also  ifconfig
[19:43] <dmsuperman> navetz, System -> Preferences -> Shared Folders
[19:43] <Flannel> Reenen: sudo update-alternatives --config editor
[19:43] <magnetron> dmsuperman: sudo blkid
[19:43] <Broadcom> navetz: http://www.samba.org/samba/GUI/
[19:43] <ajopaul> export EDITOR=vi if you want vi :)
[19:43] <maximumbob> amenado: ifconfig -a or just ifconfig
[19:43] <amenado> dmacnutt-> you do  a cat  /dev/disk/by-uuid
[19:43] <dmsuperman> navetz, sorry, Administration not Preferences
[19:44] <amenado> maximumbob-> either..but go ahead  ifconfig -a
[19:44] <Reenen> ajopaul: No, when I double click it... but the files doesn't have a .txt extention
[19:44] <Chrysalis> do i need to install anything extra for cool'n'quiet?  looking at the cpu frequency scaling monitor it seems to be working right off the bat
[19:44] <killakali408650> and i never dual booted before in my life, soo when i finish installing the ubuntu os and restart the computer will the computer automatically ask me which os i want to boot?
[19:44] <Flannel> killakali408650: yes
[19:44] <Reenen> thanks!
[19:44] <navetz> dmsuperman: oh its probably important to note that I am using KDE, but I found it, thanks for the help, ill brb
[19:44] <maximumbob> amenado: if only I had a usb flash drive on hand :-/
[19:44] <Broadcom> Reenen: what extension does it have?
[19:45] <Darkche1> killakali: yes you will get the grub menu
[19:45] <Darkche1> ok , i need to know if theres support in ubuntu for usb modems ??
[19:45] <amenado> maximumbob-> basically, if you dont have the driver, the nic will not work
[19:45] <robg_> killakali408650: be very carefull you cannot afford to make mistakes.
[19:45] <killakali408650> it said on the website before i install ubuntu from the cd that i created i should first check the integrity of it
[19:45] <Broadcom> !tab | Darkche1
[19:45] <magnus_> How do I give my Disk an UUID?
[19:45] <ajopaul> Reenen, if the file is txt and even if the extension is absent gedit opens up
[19:45] <maximumbob> amenado: I get that, but the fact is that this card works by default in debian and ubuntu, based on comments online
[19:45] <killakali408650> yep i can't afford to make mistakes i put soo much money into this laptop
[19:46] <magnetron> magnus_: it already has one. run "sudo blkid" to find it out
[19:46] <Darkche1> does anyone know if there is support for usb modems in ubuntu ????
[19:46] <killakali408650> sooo after vista is done formatting the partition that i just created, i just put the cd in the cd drive and restart the computer right?
[19:46] <Jaikkuli> Broadcom: i mean like.. complete seperate ones.. like.. i could have one at the top, one at the bottom for example
[19:46] <magnetron> Darkche1: yes, but it depends on the modem of course
[19:46] <robg_> killakali408650: find a friend who has done this before.
[19:46] <killakali408650> and then install ubuntu from there?? is there anything specific that i should look out for?
[19:46] <Broadcom> Jaikkuli: yes, do what i said, then move it
[19:47] <killakali408650> robg_ isn't there a way to remove ubuntu if it does mess up??
[19:47] <magnus_> magnetron: it gives /dev/sdb2: LABEL="Media" SEC_TYPE="ext2" TYPE="ext3"
[19:47] <linduxed> ok i need help with a en-1216 network card: im loading the tulip driver but it doesnt help at all, ive added the "option tulip irq=11" (which was the IRQ used in XP) and that has no effect either. thoughts? procedure?
[19:47] <Darkche1> magnetron : its a smartAX MT882
[19:47] <magnus_> magnetron: i get an UUID for all disks but not my /dev/sdb2
[19:47] <mydoghasworms> Darkche1: Typically, so-called softmodems are a problem on OSs where there are no proprietary drivers available (i.e. just about everything except Windows or Mac)
[19:48] <magnetron> Darkche1: i'm not familiar with that particular modem
[19:49] <magnus_> magnetron: and I just created /dev/sdb2 partition from winxp so it is fresh
[19:49] <Darkche1> magnetron : basically a modem for talktalk we got for nothing
[19:49] <Glightning> could someone possibly help me with some video issues i'm having with wow? i've followed the guides and nothing seems to work
[19:50] <linduxed> anyone?
[19:50] <picanello> ciaooo
[19:50] <murphy> test
[19:51] <amenado> linduxed-> is that the driver for it? tulip?
[19:52] <amenado> maximumbob-> well i will not argue with what you have read, but is it working for you?
[19:52] <redcode> conky users, anyone?
[19:52] <maximumbob> amenado: was prepping pastebin stuff
[19:53] <maximumbob> amenado: http://paste.ubuntu.com/14859 for ifconfig, http://paste.ubuntu.com/14860 for lspci. For lscpi I only included ethernet line
[19:53] <amenado> magnus_-> is there a filesystem on it yet?
[19:54] <amenado> maximumbob-> having 00:00:00.... for hw address is bogus for one
[19:54] <magnus_> amenado: yes its an ext3 with files on it, i can mount it and everything
[19:55] <|et> hi can someone recommend a flash editor for ubuntu
[19:55] <amenado> maximumbob-> lspci result didnt help much either..
[19:55] <magnus_> But i guess i can use LABEL instead of UUID (i read on some wiki page ubuntu requires label OR uuid)
[19:55] <amenado> magnus_-> but no uuid ?
[19:55] <magnus_> amenado: thats right
[19:55] <magnus_> amenado: gotta go brb
[19:55] <amenado> magnus_-> you can mount without using uuid
[19:55] <magnus_> amenado: yep
[19:56] <indio> Are there ubuntu forums somewhere ?
[19:56] <Flannel> indio: ubuntuforums.org
[19:56] <Darkche1> so basically this modem will not work ??? searching the forums had no luck
[19:56] <toyo|desk> hmm I cant seem to get audacious music player to play any online radio streams like from shoutcast
[19:56] <toyo|desk> it just freezes
[19:56] <indio> Thanks.
[19:56] <toyo|desk> however mplayer plugin seems to play them fine
[19:56] <toyo|desk> er mplayer plugin in firefox
[19:57] <Jaikkuli> Broadcom: well i am doing that, but for some reason it isnt working
[19:57] <DaveKong> How do I install a driver I DLed from say the dell website?
[19:57] <toyo|desk> and I can play regular mp3s off my pc in audacious just not off the web I guess
[19:57] <Broadcom> Jaikkuli: im not sure why
[19:58] <Swish> welllll :D
[19:58] <genii> |et: Since flash is a proprietary format there isn't much for that. Although you may want to look at ktoon or synfig
[19:58] <fostot> Quick question for the gnome desktop, how can you remove the symbolic link "emblem" i know it's not an emblem but calling it that for lack of knowing what it is :P
[19:58] <|et> okay thanks
[19:58] <In-Sane``> I installed wine, I tried wine program.exe but it shows an error. I also tried wine --help and all I get is wine program argument.. whats the right command for wine please?
[19:58] <genii> DaveKong: If the driver came as say, a .deb file then use:   sudo dpkg -i thefilename.deb
[19:59] <kumquats> When connecting my camera to the computer, ubuntu wants to use gphoto or gthumb or whatever to "import" the images. I just want to see the camera as a mounted volume like a usb stick. How do I make it do this?
[19:59] <soundray> In-Sane``: 'program.exe' is just a placeholder. You should replace it with the name of a real program
[19:59] <ariqz> ok, I got a modem driver compiled finally and it's working, but it requires root to access it, which is a total pain in the butt since I want to use gnome-ppp. Why does it require root?
[19:59] <In-Sane``> soundray: Yes. that was jsut an example. the real program is NetworkAdmin.exe :)
[20:00] <storm-zen> I'm getting a million ata2.00 messages written to my logs.  I need them to stop so that I can figure out why the Hardy box doesn't have network connectivity.  How do I stop ata2.00 messages from being written temporarily?
[20:00] <In-Sane``> Just*
[20:00] <soundray> kumquats: if you disable camera auto-access via System-Preferences-Removable Drives and Media, it should mount the camera memory like any USB memory
[20:00] <kestaz> that the wtf is Suhosin-Patch ?
[20:00] <guyzmo> hi
[20:00] <I440r> ok can someone please tell me how to get grub installed on an external usb drive?
[20:00] <I440r> it does NOT work
[20:00] <DaveKong> genii_ it is a .exe
[20:00] <BCM43> !hi | guyzmo
[20:00] <kpan> oh i know
[20:00] <DaveKong> self extracting but clicking on it does not do anything
[20:01] <Glightning> so i have wow installed, followed the guides step by step and there is video but it shows nothing in game except the ground and sky, any suggestions?
[20:01] <kumquats> soundray, I tried that. Do I need to restart gnome?
[20:01] <ariqz> is there a way to use gksudo where you can give it a pass as you login?
[20:01] <kpan> so how is ur day
[20:01] <I440r> well. grub installs but when ever i try select a boot image it tells me "selected partition cannot be mounted" or something ike that
[20:01] <ariqz> like gksudo password
[20:01] <toyo|desk> heh speaking of grub I have about 7 different kernel entries in my grub on boot up I need to edit that config
[20:01] <I440r> like
[20:01] <toyo|desk> :P
[20:01] <kpan> how is ur day
[20:01] <Darkche1> DaveKong - you cant use exe drivers in ubuntu
[20:01] <soundray> In-Sane``: you could put that error on a pastebin and ask the people in #wine about it. Or you could try the latest wine version, which is available through an inofficial repository... see the factoid:
[20:01] <kpan> fine
[20:01] <DaveKong> crap
[20:01] <soundray> !wine | In-Sane``
[20:01] <BCM43> !ot | kpan
[20:01] <guyzmo> got a weird problem with my mouse
[20:01] <guyzmo> my mouse is a bluetooth one
[20:01] <kpan> why
[20:02] <soundray> kumquats: no, that should not be necessary. Do reconnect your camera, though
[20:02] <kibibyte> guyzmo, how come
[20:02] <kpan> thats good
[20:02] <BorkisDrizzt> so, I got a problem with the wireless connection on this computer I just installed Ubuntu on
[20:02] <guyzmo> X11 starts, but the mouse does not move
[20:02] <ariqz> is there a way to use gksudo where you can give it a pass as you login? like sudo PASSWORD
[20:02] <guyzmo> cat /dev/input/mice outputs garbage as it should
[20:02] <guyzmo> (when the mouse moves)
[20:02] <enry_> hi i'm john titor
[20:02] <kpan> by U ARE NOT ENTRTAINING ME    bye
[20:02] <BCM43> !enter | guyzmo
[20:02] <Glightning> any suggestions?
[20:02] <BCM43> good
[20:02] <guyzmo> ok
[20:02] <algobo1> i need to use the restricted driver manager for my wireless card, but i need a internet connection, can enable the drivers some how without downloading it from internet, i have the file on my computer?
[20:03] <In-Sane``> soundray: sure thanks. will do, but do you have any idea how to run .exe file with wine via the terminal?
[20:03] <BCM43> algobo1: what wireless card?
[20:03] <toyo|desk> hmm maybe I need to ask my audacious question somewere else
[20:03] <storm-zen> how would I change an IDE CDROM to a SCSI CDROM?
[20:03] <soundray> In-Sane``: the way you tried it was correct.
[20:03] <BorkisDrizzt> tried to get some help from my friend, we tried some things and then he told me I probably would have to do something with ndiswrapper, which he had no knowledge of
[20:04] <BCM43> BorkisDrizzt: what is the problem?
[20:04] <algobo1> BCM43: it is an bcm4312
[20:04] <soundray> In-Sane``: you might pastebin the error and give me the URL, in case it's something obviouse
[20:04] <In-Sane``> soundray: ah ok.. thanks for ur help anyway :)
[20:04] <Glightning> no one has an idea about wow and messed up video?
[20:04] <soundray> In-Sane``: use http://paste.ubuntu.com
[20:04] <kibibyte> im from poland and you
[20:04] <BCM43> algobo1: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Feisty_No-Fluff it has some info on no internet
[20:04] <Bohicubuntu> Hello is IRC working?
[20:04] <guyzmo> got a weird problem with my mouse ; my mouse is a bluetooth one ; when doing "cat /dev/input/mice" it outputs garbage as expected, ie when the mouse sends events, the only error I had is "HAL failure to initialize", but nothing in Xorg.log nor in syslog/messages. My mouse used to work before I upgraded to 8.04 (last night) from 7.10
[20:04] <mib_kdcftb> !hi Bohicubuntu
[20:04] <genii> Bohicubuntu: Yes it is
[20:04] <kibibyte> im from poland and you
[20:04] <soundray> kibibyte: this is a support channel. To chat, use #ubuntu-offtopic please
[20:04] <ariqz> is there a way to use gksudo where you can give it a pass as you login? like sudo PASSWORD
[20:05] <In-Sane``> soundray: I would do but am in windows now. will paste it if i got the chance..
[20:05] <soundray> Bohicubuntu: no, it's down today
[20:05] <BorkisDrizzt> I canæt find the wireless network that should be there, we tried some iwlist wlan0 scan and didn't get any results
[20:05] <DaveKong> how do I get the driver then?
[20:05] <BCM43> BorkisDrizzt: what wireless card?
[20:05] <guyzmo> any hint where I should invistigate ?
[20:05] <Jaikkuli> anyone have any ideas why i cannot create seperate panels
[20:05] <james__> has anyone been able to make 802.11 N wi-fi work with any version of linux?
[20:05] <Bohicubuntu> Can someone fix it?
[20:05] <soundray> In-Sane``: what does this networkadmin thing do? Perhaps there is a Linux alternative.
[20:05] <adam_> does 8.04 desktop support intel raid yet or is it still a pain?
[20:05] <BorkisDrizzt> a Broadcom one, need more spesific info?
[20:05] <Bohicubuntu> yes
[20:05] <genii> DaveKong: Which device is it that you are trying to get the driver for?
[20:06] <bobby_> hak5fan, my browser is not working after restarting... i put ipv4
[20:06] <bobby_> :(
[20:06] <BCM43> BorkisDrizzt: yes
[20:06] <DaveKong> Broadcom 440x 10/100
[20:06] <soundray> Bohicubuntu: no, it's fine. I was just joking. We wouldn't be chatting otherwise
[20:06] <Bohicubuntu> Hello who are you?
[20:06] <karname> is there  any coffe management in linux (like cybercafe or easycafe in windows)?
[20:06] <soundray> Bohicubuntu: oops
[20:06] <fostot> Say I have a digital camera, i attempted importing the pictures with f-spot-import but i'm getting a Unhandled Exception: System.exception: Unsupport SQLite database version at Banshee.Database.QueuedSqliteDatabase
[20:06] <BCM43> Who needs help with Wireless?
[20:06] <soundray> !wifi | Bohicubuntu, check these help pages, then ask more specifically
[20:07] <BCM43> soundray: those are useless
[20:07] <soundray> BCM43: Bohicubuntu does
[20:07] <Bohicubuntu> Do you like coffee?
[20:07] <Jaikkuli> anyone have any idea why i cannot seperate my gnome panels
[20:07] <BorkisDrizzt> meh, I forgot the command. one sec while I find he info
[20:07] <soundray> Bohicubuntu: please don't post offtopic
[20:07] <prash81> Hey all, I'm trying to install ubuntu, and I have Windows XP already installed.  Does the Ubuntu install disk allow us to format the Hard Drive, or is there anything I have to do?
[20:07] <asizemore> can anyone help me with grub? I can't get anyone in the main channel to help me
[20:07] <guyzmo> !mouse
[20:07] <BorkisDrizzt> ah, lspci...
[20:07] <BCM43> prash81: nothing else
[20:07] <soundray> asizemore: what main channel?
[20:07] <linduxed> amenado: yes that is the driver for it and it seems like the only solution right now is disabling plug and play....dont wanna do that
[20:07] <asizemore> I want to make grub choose windows as the first choice in operating systems instead of ubuntu
[20:07] <asizemore> soundray: #grub
[20:07] <Bohicubuntu> I fixed irc I think
[20:07] <karname> yes, i need software to manage coffenet system (time ,cost , ticket ,etc)
[20:08] <jrib> asizemore: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and set "default" appropriately
[20:08] <soundray> asizemore: do you have an entry for Windows?
[20:08] <BCM43> Bohicubuntu: we can hear you
[20:08] <james__> BCM43, know anything about getting 802.11 N working?
[20:08] <jbroome> karname: look at RT
[20:08] <Bohicubuntu> you do really?
[20:08] <asizemore> soundray: yeah
[20:08] <genii> DaveKong: Please put my name in a reply directed to me. I am in several channels and if I don't see it blinking red for me I may know know you're speaking to me. At any rate I'll loook up what driver you may need.
[20:08] <BCM43> james__ n, nope
[20:08] <maximumbob> amenado: I found the driver in /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/net/sis900.ko. Then I rmmod sis900, modprobe -v sis900, and it showed successful, however in dmesg it showed 00:00:00:00:00:00 again.
[20:08] <ariqz> is there a way to use gksudo where you can give it a pass as you login? like sudo PASSWORD
[20:08] <prash81> BCM43, I tried to install, but it just locks up, does it auto format?
[20:08] <james__> BCM43, thanks anyway
[20:08] <BCM43> prash81: yes
[20:08] <In-Sane``> soundray: well, it lets you restrict access to every computer, apply executable patches remotely, and schedule reboots, shutdowns, and Windows Explorer restarts from a single administrator's computer connected to a TCP/IP-based network or Internet..
[20:08] <Bohicubuntu> Do you like crocs?
[20:08] <prash81> hmmm, thanks BCM43
[20:09] <soundray> asizemore: which number does it have when you run 'grep ^title /boot/grub/menu.lst | nl -v 0 '

[20:09] <Bohicubuntu> Hi bobby
[20:09] <BCM43> BorkisDrizzt: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Feisty_No-Fluff
[20:09] <soundray> In-Sane``: sounds like a tool for Windows networks that should be run from a Windows machine
[20:09] <maximumbob> is amenado still here?
[20:09] <DaveKong> genii: ok thanks
[20:09] <adam_> does 8.04 desktop support intel raid yet or is it still a pain?
[20:09] <jbroome> karname: really?
[20:10] <bobby_> Bohicubuntu, hi
[20:10] <soundray> asizemore: I may be away then, but there's always help around
[20:10] <In-Sane``> soundray: do you think it won't work for ubuntu?
[20:10] <benpicco> Hi, does anybody know how to use libvisual and gstreamer to visualize sound streams from LineIn/Mic?
[20:10] <prash81> well, the actual problem is when I hit Enter on install, it gets to a screen with a desktop image, then it locks up from there.  Is this a normal issue, or should I reinstall?
[20:10] <karname> jbroome: please say clearly
[20:10] <soundray> asizemore: you need to replace the 0 in 'default 0' in /boot/grub/menu.lst with the number you found there.
[20:10] <Bohicubuntu> Help around?\
[20:10] <algobo1> BCM43: didn't find anything on the website about if i dont have internetconnection how to use restricted driver manager
[20:10] <BCM43> Bohicubuntu: what is your problem?
[20:10] <thesaint4444> hi guys, I have ssh set up with a password for connection to my server. I want to change it to passwordless key login. Can I go ahead with the set up on top of what I have? thanks.
[20:11] <Bohicubuntu> Why not/
[20:11] <BCM43> algobo1: hold on, ill find you the link
[20:11] <soundray> In-Sane``: I think it will be a kludge to administer a network of Windows machines from Ubuntu.

[20:14] <bobby_> BCM43, opera too gives the same prob
[20:14] <xri> bobby_: did you set a proxy in firefox connections settings?
[20:14] <BCM43> bobby_ waht happens
[20:14] <soundray> tigran: tried System-Preferences-Main Menu ?

[20:14] <tim__> does anyone know why the kubuntu channel is on "secret"
[20:14] <genii> DaveKong: It looks like your card should be using the bcm43xx driver.    If in Terminal   you do:  lsmod | grep 43xx                   does it show that or just return to next line?
[20:14] <bobby_> BCM43, it says waiting for tht server to respond
[20:14] <Bohicubuntu> No why?
[20:14] <BCM43> Bohicubuntu: stop or you will be booted

[20:15] <Cosworth1> hi everyone. I was wondering if anyone could help. I have setup ubuntu so it see's all the buttons on my mouse. But I would like to configure button "2" which is my wheel pushed in to open a terminal
[20:15] <vlad> james__:  man i could find the 5.1 sound, but now i have new prob why moves looks soo poor video, it can be original dvd or any dvd rip are some pixels there
[20:15] <Cosworth1> thanks for any help :)
[20:15] <BCM43> !mouse | Cosworth1
[20:15] <bobby_> xri, just timed out
[20:15] <guyzmo> I'm getting mad
[20:15] <bobby_> xri, no other error messages
[20:15] <soundray> tim__: probably better to ask in #ubuntu-ops
[20:15] <BCM43> !patience | guyzmo
[20:15] <Cosworth1> many thanks now looking :)
[20:15] <guyzmo> there's no rational reason why my mouse isn't working
[20:15] <witepa> The ubuntu.com home page mentions an easy uninstall, but I see no instructions on how to execute this. Where can I find the instructions to do so?
[20:15] <james__> vlad, are you using protected video?
[20:15] <tigran> soundray: I dont have that
[20:15] <FrancisFarme> Hello I have a toshiba p105 series and i cant get the sound to work with Hardy any help?
[20:15] <Fryguy--> Cosworth1: what window manager are you using?
[20:15] <xri> bobby_: you tried different addresses? do you have a router for internet access?
[20:16] <bobby_> xri, yeah. i have a router
[20:16] <james__> vlad, also, what did you find the issue was with the 5.1 channel sound?>
[20:16] <Fryguy--> witepa: what are you going to replace ubuntu with?
[20:16] <BCM43> FrancisFarme: try google, you should find something
[20:16] <guyzmo> BCM43 - I'm patient.... I just hate not knowing what I can do...
[20:16] <bobby_> xri, i tried diff addresses. it sometimes works for 5 min or so
[20:16] <xri> bobby_: the web interface of that router is showing up?
[20:16] <bigsexy> i got a question. i heard that everything that a computer accesses online is saved to the computer in some way. does that apply only to windows?
[20:16] <bobby_> xri, and them stops again
[20:16] <BCM43> guyzmo: try asking again
[20:16] <bobby_> xri, yeah.. it is showing
[20:16] <nbarger> anyone know how i can command my computer to change to 1024x768
[20:16] <DaveKong> genii: it just returns the next line
[20:16] <Chousuke> bigsexy: no
[20:17] <Cosworth1> window manager? I guess you mean my teerminal = gnome
[20:17] <eugman> Since I've upgraded, there is no audio. Any info on the situation would be appreciated.
[20:17] <Cosworth1> terminal*
[20:17] <soundray> tigran: do a 'sudo apt-get install alacarte' then
[20:17] <bigsexy> it applies to linux also?
[20:17] <FrancisFarme> BCM43: I actually followed so many of the forums in google but nothing worked
[20:17] <Fryguy--> bigsexy: regarding web browsing, that's true for all modern gui-based web browsers, and is easily turned off in the options or preferences dialog for each browser
[20:17] <Chousuke> bigsexy: obviously everything that you access on the net must be downloaded to your machine so that you can view it
[20:17] <vlad> james__:  the issue was i hav to check something in vlc so its good now, with mplayer no but im ok with vlc and protected video no and still with avis
[20:17] <james__> bigsexy, first let me say that I'm offended by your nickname being that this is a help forum
[20:17] <soundray> tigran: if you still don't have that menu entry, run alacarte from a terminal
[20:17] <xri> bobby_: some routers have firewalls that analyze incomming traffic. some have access restrictions that can be set. any of these active by accident?
[20:17] <witepa> Fryguy--: ubuntu 7.10
[20:17] <bobby_> xri, how do i check?
[20:17] <guyzmo> well, I hate reasking over and over, that's not polite
[20:17] <Fryguy--> witepa: so then just install it
[20:17] <bobby_> xri, the net works fine in windows
[20:17] <Chousuke> bigsexy: it may stay in cache, or just be saved in RAM
[20:17] <tigran> soundray: it works now, from Edit Munus, thanks, wonder why i didnt have that
[20:17] <mnemonic_> bigsexy: no that applies to every modern browser (and many other applications). this is mostly done to increase performance, you can however clean this cache our even disable it (disabling it will seriously hurt performance) in Firefox's preferences (in case you use firefox).
[20:17] <bobby_> xri, its only in linux that i get this prob
[20:17] <james__> bigsexy, secondly, more or less that is correct and the computer will keep much of it's data locally
[20:18] <In-Sane``> !alacarte
[20:18] <mib_kdcftb> Can the Bot provide info about Ubuntu packages?
[20:18] <nbarger> can somebody help me out
[20:18] <BCM43> guyzmo: it is fast, it can be easilly missed.
[20:18] <soundray> !info alacarte
[20:18] <BorkisDrizzt> yay, got to line nr. 2 "sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper-utils-1.9" and it says it can't find the package...
[20:18] <mib_kdcftb> !ask | nbarger
[20:18] <xri> bobby_: oh i have an other idea. you have more than one computer on your network?
[20:18] <BCM43> !ask | nbarger
[20:18] <Fryguy--> nbarger: not until you asked a question
[20:18] <bobby_> xri, hak5fan suggested it was some ipv6 prob
[20:18] <Chousuke> bisection: even if you disable caching, the data will still be downloaded to RAM at least for a while.
[20:18] <bobby_> xri, no
[20:18] <Chousuke> er
[20:18] <guyzmo> ok, reasking: got a weird problem with my mouse ; my mouse is a bluetooth one ; when doing "cat /dev/input/mice" it outputs garbage as expected, ie when the mouse sends events, the only error I had is "HAL failure to initialize", but nothing in Xorg.log nor in syslog/messages. My mouse used to work before I upgraded to 8.04 (last night) from 7.10
[20:19] <Chousuke> I need to enable quits ;P
[20:19] <james__> vlad, where do you get your video? What are the formats you are trying to play? And are you using restricted drivers?
[20:19] <nbarger> whats the command to switch resolution to specific without editing the .conf file
[20:19] <genii> DaveKong: OK. So:  sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules                then: alt-f2      gksu jockey-gtk             which should then see you need that driver etc
[20:19] <BCM43> guyzmo: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=588950
[20:19] <bobby_> xri, sometimes it just shows done and displays nothing. just a blank page
[20:19] <mib_kdcftb> !info xorg-dev
[20:19] <ariqz> is there a way to use gksudo where you can give it a pass as you login? like sudo PASSWORD
[20:19] <xri> bobby_: sometimes machines with same IP and a switch can cause weird effects. anyway. IPv6 made never problems for me, but i heard others complain. and other thing would be to check if you have any new/incompatible  firefox plugins
[20:20] <BCM43> ariqz: no
[20:20] <robertzaccour> hey everyone
[20:20] <nbarger> james__ yeah well all my resolutions worked fine in nvidia manager last night when i went to sleep but then today it pops up running in low resolution mode and can only go to 640x480 with nvidia drivers
[20:20] <BCM43> !hi robertzaccour
[20:20] <vlad> james__: yes are restricted dirvers, compiz works so good and the movies can be legit dvd, avi ripped from dvd or any video looks pixelated, even the subtitles
[20:20] <BCM43> !hi | robertzaccour
[20:20] <bobby_> xri, this is a basic install of hardy, no plugins have been installed as of now
[20:20] <robertzaccour> thanks
[20:20] <Slalomsk8er> Hi
[20:20] <BCM43> !hi | Slalomsk8er
[20:21] <m-c> Q: anyone get dual monitors working without having to hack the xorg.conf ?
[20:21] <james__> vlad, please disable compiz, and tell me if you get the same result
[20:21] <Chrysalis> whats the nvidia-xconfig and nvidia-settings the same thing?
[20:21] <ciscu>  How to configure microphone? my speakers are working but not the microphone... Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 02)
[20:21] <xri> bobby_: ok, no guesses left ;-) maybe check if you can disable IPv6, might be some incompatibility with your router
[20:21] <robertzaccour> i prefer computing without compiz
[20:21] <bobby_> xri, did that too :( not working
[20:21] <james__> nbarger, do you need assistance with S3 acpi state or xorg.conf?
[20:21] <mnemonic_> Chrysalis: as far as i know, nvidia-settings is a GUI tool and nvidia-xconfig is some command line xorg.conf generator.
[20:21] <Chrysalis> i mean are they the same thing, one is equivalent to control pannel
[20:22] <vlad> james__:  yes man same problem without compiz
[20:22] <Chrysalis> mnemonic_: kk, just want the settings then
[20:22] <xri> bobby_: did you check /var/log/messages and "dmesg" fore messages concernng network card (bad cable/speeed) and DHCP problems?
[20:22] <ariqz> BCM43: well, there is a command I run I don't want to be bothered with a password everytime I run it!
[20:22] <robertzaccour> have you tried a fresh install?
[20:22] <echazan> Hey, I want to setup a basic dual-boot ubuntu/Xp windows laptop.  The hard drive is 120 gig, and I want to leave as much of it as possible for windows gaming.  How much should I reserve for ubuntu?
[20:22] <bobby_> xri, nopes
[20:22] <james__> vlad, what about movie player?
[20:22] <BCM43> ariqz: there is no way do to security. sorry
[20:22] <mib_kdcftb> echazan: Ubuntu runs nicely on my laptop, which has a 20GB hard drive
[20:23] <xri> the update-manager shows a list of changes. can i view this list somewhere in the web browser too? is there an URL i can look at?
[20:23] <jrib> ariqz: you can allow commands to run without a password, see 'man sudoers'.  Look for NOPASSWD in the man page
[20:23] <nbarger> how could i download an older version of the nvidia drivers?
[20:23] <DaveKong> genii: no compnents are being shown
[20:24] <Chrysalis> mnemonic_: hmm, nvidia-settings conflicts with nvidia-glx-new? ;/
[20:24] <Chrysalis> mnemonic_: that doesnt make sence
[20:24] <FrancisFarme> Hardy on Toshiba p105 Hardy, sound card not working. tried recompiling all of alsa packages myself nothing worked any help please?
[20:24] <vlad> james__: moovieplayer even more pixelated than vlc
[20:24] <KlrSpz> anyone use synergy? having an issue with it not actually executing keystroke binds, as well as killing my keystroke repeat
[20:24] <mnemonic_> Chrysalis: I am not sure - may be nvidia-glx-new brings its own version of nvidia-settings - just install your appropriate nvidia driver and check if it's there
[20:24] <KlrSpz> and it's jumpy/slow
[20:24] <james__> it may be an issue with the demuxer
[20:24] <m-c> http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Hardy#Configuring_multiple_monitors_with_a_nVidia_graphics_card
[20:25] <vlad> james__: for some reason automatic updates ask me to get a new vid driver, maybe that fix the problem
[20:25] <genii> DaveKong: So it's saying something like "No restricted rivers needed" or such?
[20:25]  * xri never gets any questions answered in this busy channel, hehe
[20:25] <Chrysalis> mnemonic_: its installed and working nvidia-glx-new. . . i just thought the nvidia-settings was basically the 'control pannel' thing for the driver 'glx-new'
[20:26] <nbarger> Did your nvidia drivers just break unexpectedly?
[20:26] <james__> vlad, possibly, but doubtful. Without seeing the video play, I can't be certain if it's a driver or Codec issue. I would upgrade the video driver, and then play around with codecs
[20:26] <robbie``> let ubuntu update automatically from 2.6.24-16 to revision 17 and totem stopped playing movies/mp3s
[20:26] <Miesco> My sound isn't working now for some reason, how do I see whats using my sound card?
[20:26] <robbie``> anyone else run into that ??
[20:27] <SangreDeThor> how can i only upgrade from the security repo
[20:27] <FrancisFarme> Hardy on Toshiba p105 Hardy, sound card not working. tried recompiling all of alsa packages myself nothing worked any help please?
[20:27] <guyzmo> BCM43 - I tried this, but it doesn't work...
[20:27] <mnemonic_> Miesco: which version of ubuntu do you use?
[20:27] <Slalomsk8er> i need some help with a kernel panic caused by the update to Ubuntu 8.04 in compo with isw raid1
[20:27] <vlad> james__: which codecs do u use to watch movies?
[20:27] <FrancisFarme> Miesco: i have the same problem
[20:27] <BorkisDrizzt> when using apt-get, is there a way to save the install files without installing on this pc, and then installing on another pc from a memory stick?
[20:27] <BCM43> guyzmo: no idea then
[20:27] <DaveKong> genii: it says no proproetary drivers are in use on this system
[20:28] <In-Sane``> how do i log the terminal?
[20:28] <KlrSpz> BorkisDrizzt: you can do a fetch only
[20:28] <KlrSpz> BorkisDrizzt: and if you already installed it, it's saved in /var/cache/apt
[20:28] <james__> vlad, just the standard libxine-1 and ffmpeg
[20:28] <nbarger> how come proprietary drivers are the glx-new i want to use the old glx
[20:28] <BorkisDrizzt> so how the hell am I gonna get ndiswrapper installed on the PC with no internet?
[20:29] <robertzaccour> i just thought of something funny. i have nothing microsoft on my computer, bit i play xbox
[20:29] <robertzaccour> but
[20:29] <genii> DaveKong: OK, close that then. Returning to Terminal and to put:          sudo modprobe bcm43xx
[20:29] <james__> maybe a few others but too many to list. I have no issues with video playback, and I'm using Intel GMA 3000
[20:29] <xri> BorkisDrizzt: dpkg -i *.deb
[20:29] <mnemonic_> BorkisDrizzt: how do you have internet right now?
[20:29] <KlrSpz> BorkisDrizzt: don't have a built-in ethernet?
[20:29] <Skitt> BorkisDrizzt: geht the package to some media
[20:29] <Skitt> -h
[20:29] <BorkisDrizzt> I am sitting on another laptop
[20:29] <Gumby> does anyone here know how to force dkms to rebuild a module?
[20:29] <KlrSpz> BorkisDrizzt: download it on your current box, it's just a deb pkg
[20:29] <BorkisDrizzt> friend of mine says something about man apt-get ?
[20:30] <KlrSpz> yeah, he told you RTFM
[20:30] <soundray> ariqz: I'm not clear what you want to achieve...
[20:30] <Gumby> BorkisDrizzt: floppy, cdrom, usb key
[20:30] <DaveKong> genii: nothing returns just the default line is back
[20:30] <james__> vlad, system/administration/hardware testing and test your video
[20:30] <vlad> james__: going to check if i have those
[20:30] <xri> BorkisDrizzt: if you have a deb on your memory stick you can simply click on it in nautlius and it will as you to install. download packages from packages.ubuntu.com
[20:30] <Miesco> mnemonic_: hardy
[20:30] <xri> s/as/ask
[20:31] <In-Sane``> soundray: one more question please, how do i log the terminal? I want the terminal to log all the commands i've used? any idea?
[20:31] <KlrSpz> anyone use synergy? having an issue with it not actually executing keystroke binds, as well as killing my keystroke repeat; it's also very jumpy/slow
[20:31] <soundray> In-Sane``: it does so automatically, in the file ~/.bash_history
[20:31] <jbroome> In-Sane``: it already does, run the history command
[20:31] <xri> In-Sane``: see "history" bash already saves your last commands
[20:31] <vlad> james__:
[20:31] <vlad> The following resolution was detected for your display:
[20:31] <vlad> impossible with fglrx
[20:31] <vlad> Is this a good resolution for your display?
[20:31] <mnemonic_> Miesco: 1. did you do a fresh install of hardy or did you upgrade? 2. do you have no sound at all or just no sound for particular applications? 3. which applications do you use?
[20:31] <FloodBot1> vlad: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[20:31] <Slalomsk8er> script logs with command output
[20:31] <soundray> In-Sane``: you can just enter 'history' to see the list in chronological order
[20:31] <vlad> awww sry
[20:32] <In-Sane``> soundray: aha.. ok thanks again :)
[20:32] <xri> hehe, In-Sane`` is flooded with dozens of similar answers ;-)
[20:32] <In-Sane``> jbroome: ok thanks
[20:32] <james__> vlad, system/preferences/screen resolution
[20:32] <soundray> xri: you can gauge the difficulty of a question by the number of answers it attracts -- it's an inverse proportional relationship
[20:33] <Slalomsk8er> In-Sane``: script - make typescript of terminal session
[20:33] <DaveKong> genii: I must go... thanks for trying to help I will have to figure it out later
[20:33] <james__> vlad, try using 1024x768
[20:33] <In-Sane``> Slalomsk8er: excuse me?
[20:33] <xri> soundray: yes. that explains why i never get an answer to mine ;-)
[20:33] <snarkste1> hi
[20:33] <In-Sane``> lol xri
[20:33] <KlrSpz> so what's the new nvidia driver do for us?
[20:33] <BCM43> !hi | snarkste1
[20:33] <soundray> xri: difficult ones are best posed in the forums
[20:33] <snarkste1> does anyone have an RCA Pearl MP3 player and been able to mount it?
[20:34] <Slalomsk8er> In-Sane``: you wanted to log the terminal commands right?
[20:34] <soundray> xri: what are you up to at the moment? I'll have a go...
[20:34] <BorkisDrizzt> so do I have to download the amd64 version or the i386 version?
[20:34] <vlad> james__: same error man
[20:34] <james__> vlad, what video card do you have?
[20:34] <In-Sane``> Slalomsk8er: yep, thats right.. does that command helps me?
[20:34] <xri> soundray: heh, i just wanted to know if there is a URL for the changes that the update-manager shows too, without firing up wireshark ;-)
[20:34] <vlad> james__: radeon x1300
[20:34] <vlad> james__: radeon x1550 which is the same
[20:34] <snarkste1> everytime I try to mount the Pearl MP3 player it tells my bad superblock
[20:35] <james__> vlad, do what?
[20:35] <genii> DaveKong: Just returning to the next line indicates the module successfully loaded
[20:35] <vlad> james__: do what?
[20:35] <xri> soundray: basically, update-manager isn't showing yet whats changed at the nvidia driver. i had crashes and wanted to read the change log. i can also wait a day with the update
[20:35] <Slalomsk8er> In-Sane``:yes you can let it write a typescript of your terminal session with the output of the command in to a file
[20:36] <james__> vlad, is that just the video card or is it also a capture card/tv tuner?
[20:36] <julien> :o
[20:36] <tuchki> hello
[20:36] <soundray> xri: or update blindly and cross fingers...
[20:36] <vlad> james__: just video card
[20:36] <BCM43> !hi | tuchki
[20:36] <tuchki> thankyou
[20:36] <james__> which card do you have, the 1550 or the 1300?
[20:36] <tuchki> someone know how can i let free space on desktop
[20:37] <In-Sane``> Slalomsk8er: thank you
[20:37] <soundray> xri: I always assumed that if update-manager doesn't show the changelog, it means that it hasn't been written yet
[20:37] <xri> soundray: i do that on most updates :-) but in this case i'd like to see if there is a chance for a fix of my problem :-)
[20:37] <vegas85> hi all
[20:37] <snarkste1> oh i need to reboot just finished updating
[20:37] <tuchki> i want to have a screenlets always visible
[20:38] <xri> soundray: that may well be true. i'll wait until it shows the text. i don't have grave problems right now, just some rare crashes in some 3D apps
[20:38] <KlrSpz> tuchki: turn off the widgets layer
[20:38] <babolat> I hope this update takes care of my recent X crashes
[20:38] <Miesco> mnemonic_: I did alsa reload and sound works
[20:38] <tuchki> ok KlrSpz , and then?
[20:39] <KlrSpz> tuchki: and then they should always show?
[20:39] <tuchki> yes they are, but when i have a maximized window, screenlet cover it
[20:40] <KlrSpz> turn the "always on top" feature off for the widgets
[20:40] <FrancisFarme> hardy heron soundcard not working please guys help
[20:40] <babolat> !sound | FrancisFarme
[20:41] <navetz> can someone help me use samba to find a computer on my network
[20:41] <masterpop> Good evening. I wonder if I could find some help for my graphics problem.
[20:41] <babolat> !ask | masterpop
[20:41] <dfarmernv> Hey all, I'm having a hard time getting my usb hard drive to work on Hardy. dmesg says "Read/64 error -71"
[20:42] <soundray> dfarmernv: are you plugging it into the mainboard directly, or into an external hub?
[20:42] <mnemonic_> Miesco: congratulations
[20:42] <tuchki> KlrSpz, i want that when i maximize a window, it maximizes whitout cover the screenlets, smoething like reserve that space only for screenlets. is it possible to do that?
[20:42] <dfarmernv> It's straight in to the back of the pc
[20:42] <KlrSpz> say what?
[20:42] <FrancisFarme> I've messed around with my sound drivers alot is there a way to send them back to default to try smthn new?
[20:43] <masterpop> Brief description: loaded 169.12 nvidia drivers using EnvyNG; computer starts in Low Graphics mode- cannot change resolution. Running nvidia-settings brings error: "You do not appear to be using NVIDIA X Driver". Various attempts to configure xorg.conf failed.
[20:43] <KlrSpz> tuchki: i'm not following what you're wanting.. doesn't make sense to me; or it's contradictory to what the concept is
[20:43] <obf213> why is wmv streaming support so bad for ubuntu firefox, if u try to jump in time ur video pretty much always just stops working
[20:43] <soundray> dfarmernv: is Ubuntu running as the main OS, or as a guest in a virtualbox or similar?
[20:43] <babolat> KlrSpz: i think he wants something like Vista SideBar
[20:43] <hak5fan> navetz: just go to network:// in nautilus. Sorry I or try smb://computerIPOrHostName
[20:43] <AlphaOmega> no eth0 device after reboot, ifconfig has no eth0, just lo0, im on vmware
[20:43] <KlrSpz> havne't a clue what that is
[20:43] <fostot> Quick question for the gnome desktop, how can you remove the symbolic link "emblem" i know it's not an emblem but calling it that for lack of knowing what it is :P
[20:44] <dfarmernv> soundray, It's main OS
[20:44] <erUSUL> obf213: becouse wmv stands for WINDOWS (tm) movie
[20:44] <dfarmernv> running native
[20:44] <babolat> KlrSpz: it's like giving your screenlets a couple of inches of your monitor real estate exclusively. so that when you maximize windows, the alloted space still remains unchanged
[20:44] <navetz> hak5fan: oh sorry, I am using kde
[20:44] <KlrSpz> ahhhh
[20:44] <killakali408650> hi guys
[20:44] <KlrSpz> i'm certain that's possible
[20:44] <KlrSpz> i don't know how exactly, but i'm sure it is
[20:45] <tuchki> yes babolat, that is what i want
[20:45] <navetz> hak5fan: oh I found it
[20:45] <obf213> erUSUL, yeah i know just figured it would be this terrible
[20:45] <soundray> dfarmernv: as far as I know, this is a timing issue. I've had this once, and by pulling the plug and reinserting I could eventually make it work. On another occasion, I just couldn't fix it at all.
[20:45] <vlad> james__:  still there? :D
[20:45] <hak5fan> navetz: Good
[20:45] <debian> Hello
[20:45] <babolat> tuchki: KlrSpz: i've already seen a screenshot of such a setup somewhere just forgot where, never mind how
[20:45] <navetz> hak5fan: thank you
[20:45] <debian> Ubuntu is taking forwever to boot in qemu...
[20:45] <dfarmernv> soundray, alright. I've had the drive work twice and the rest of the time not too. I guess I'll just have to remember not to reboot once I get it working :P
[20:45] <ariqz> soundray: I got my modem drivers compiled finally, and they work, but they require root permission because I have to run something to load the module
[20:45] <hak5fan> np. You can also add network drives with knetattach
[20:46] <BHSPitLappy> What give Ubuntu control over LCD brightness?  Is there a kernel module I can unload to stop it altogether?
[20:46] <ariqz> soundray: I don't want to type in my pass just to connect.
[20:46] <killakali408650> hi i just installed ubuntu on my comp in a dual boot environment
[20:46] <http> hi all
[20:46] <KlrSpz> tuchki: also, a quick-tip, in xfce and even in compiz  (it's actually an opendestkop.org standard) you can right click and middle mouse click the maximize button to maximize vertically OR horizontally exclusively
[20:46] <killakali408650> everything seems to work good except
[20:46] <killakali408650> the wireless connectivity
[20:46] <ariqz> soundray: what I was thinking though, is if I change permissions on the thing I have to run that loads the module, how would I do that? I can't find it for some reason. I know it exists, but when I search file system with search, it doesn't show it
[20:46] <KlrSpz> killakali408650: what kind of wireless device?
[20:46] <jrib> ariqz: erm, did my suggestion not work?
[20:47] <masterpop_> connection dropped, back. Not sure if anyone replied to my earlier msg..
[20:47] <hak5fan> navetz: There's generally more kde users in #kubuntu, but less activity
[20:47] <ariqz> jrib: To be honest, I haven't tried it yet. I wanted ot try to make the file executable without root
[20:47] <killakali408650> i just installed ubuntu on my comp and im having trouble with the wireless connectivity
[20:47] <tuchki> thank you KlrSpz, that is nice
[20:47] <ariqz> jrib: I just haven't figure out how yet ;P
[20:47] <killakali408650> it picks up the network but when its connecting its having trouble
[20:47] <egobrain> op
[20:47] <killakali408650> can someone help me out??
[20:47] <KlrSpz> tuchki: yeah i use it for a similar purpose
[20:48] <jrib> ariqz: your best bet is to set it up in sudoers.  What are you executing exactly?
[20:48] <ariqz> what is the dir /s filename.* version for linux?
[20:48] <soundray> ariqz: if the name of the module was ltmodem, you could just do a 'echo ltmodem | sudo tee -a /etc/modules' to have it loaded at boot time
[20:48] <ariqz> jrib: martian_modem
[20:48] <sharperguy> Is it at all possible to have to instances of the same program installed/running (specifically firefox) both using different configurations?
[20:48] <KlrSpz> killakali408650: you have to respond back; but are you sure you're typing your key in correctly, and with the right encryption?
[20:48] <killakali408650> yes
[20:48] <jrib> ariqz: heh, you gave up on ltmodem then :)
[20:48] <killakali408650> i like checked it all
[20:48] <killakali408650> and all the keys work
[20:48] <ariqz> yes
[20:48] <killakali408650> right now im using vista
[20:48] <babolat> not that i know of, sharperguy
[20:48] <killakali408650> so i even double checked on there
[20:48] <ArthurArchnix> Hello again, so my sudo is still broken, even after booting into single user mode and completing the updates. To recap, I did sudo apt-get update, then sudo apt-get dist-upgrade. Then my internet dropped out and packages did not complete downloading. Now I can't sudo anything. Everytime I use sudo (or gksudo) it returns segmentation fault. While in SU I reinstalled sudo.
[20:48] <ariqz> ltmodem is a martian modem driver
[20:48] <KlrSpz> sharperguy: you could do something silly like running it as another user; otherwise it's up to the application to know how to support multiple configuration
[20:48] <killakali408650> and the keys are right
[20:49] <ariqz> err
[20:49] <ariqz> other way around ;p
[20:49] <killakali408650> i have had no trouble with the drivers at all :D
[20:49] <soundray> ariqz: do you insert it with modprobe at the moment?
[20:49] <killakali408650> ubuntu for some reason won't let me have advanced graphics run on my laptop
[20:49] <jrib> ariqz: yeah, it's on the wiki right?
[20:49] <alessandro> eaw
[20:49] <obf213> hey, has anyone got this distro to do extended desktop?
[20:49] <sharperguy> KlrSpz, might just do that then...
[20:50] <obf213>  tried to do it, however, all i got was a clone
[20:50] <KlrSpz> killakali408650: and the encryption schema is right too? as well as sometimes you have to specify if it's an "open" or "shared" key system; some routers are specific, some allow you to accept both
[20:50] <killakali408650> open wep
[20:50] <ariqz> i load it with modprobe in rc.local
[20:50] <killakali408650> and schemma?
[20:50] <crd1b> babolat: the screenlet would need to set _NET_WM_STRUT to tell the window manager to avoid placing windows in that area, but some window managers have a feature to allow the user to set an area without any windows setting _NET_WM_STRUT
[20:50] <BCM43> !prefix
[20:50] <alessandro> alguem sab cairo-dock igual o dock do mac?
[20:50] <ariqz> i also run martian_modem
[20:50] <ariqz> but then I need root to use it
[20:50] <ariqz> which is aggravating
[20:50] <soundray> ariqz: what exactly do you have to run as root?
[20:50] <babolat> crd1b: o_O
[20:51] <ariqz> soundray: wvdial, gnome-ppp
[20:51] <jrib> !pt | alessandro
[20:51] <ArthurArchnix> What can I do if typing sudo always results in "segmentation fault"?
[20:51] <alessandro> vlw
[20:51] <ariqz> I don't have permission to /dev/ttySM0 otherwise
[20:51] <soundray> ariqz: you only need to run those once, no? After that you can connect with 'pon provider'.
[20:51] <killakali408650> should i reboot and try again klrspz?
[20:51] <soundray> !modem | ariqz, have you read this
[20:52] <james__> vlad, yup but just for a bit
[20:52] <magnetron> ArthurArchnix: hey, i remeber you. you were here like 6 months ago with the same question
[20:52] <xri> ArthurArchnix: buy new RAM ;-)  seriously. the disk may be corrupt (run e2fsck), a wrong binary may be installed. or your computer has a damage
[20:52] <killakali408650> or this time i can just use the ethernet port for the first time connecting
[20:52] <ariqz> I don't have to do that with any other modem drivers.. and I'm sure there is a way to get around it
[20:52] <killakali408650> oh and for some reason when i was running the memory check it said my cpu was a p3
[20:52] <killakali408650> my cpu isn't a p3 its the t9300 dual core 2.5ghz
[20:53] <magnetron> ArthurArchnix: i got the same answer as 6 months ago: your computer hardware is damaged, needs fixing and probably replacement
[20:53] <opn6> I want to install  ubuntu sever with the gui.  can i only use the gui when i need it? Or will it boot to the desktop by default???
[20:53] <killakali408650> how can i confirm that the system sees the t9300
[20:53] <killakali408650> ?
[20:53] <navetz> can someone help me with samba, when I go to a network computer the address is smb://somestuff, how would I get there through a terminal?
[20:53] <crd1b> babolat: oh it was tuchki who has the problem :)
[20:53] <xri> ArthurArchnix: or you just messed up your installation completely. but sudo usually runs fine on vanilla ubuntu machines
[20:54] <BCM43> bazhang: you there?
[20:54] <Flannel> navetz: https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/configuring-samba.html#windows-networking-clients  you'll need to mount it somewhere
[20:54] <soundray> ariqz: what happens when you configure your ppp connection, then try to use it with pon?
[20:54] <jrib> ariqz: the wiki page describes your options.  A few of them seem to allow you to connect without a password
[20:54] <jrib> !dialup > ariqz (read the private message from ubottu)
[20:54] <magnetron> xri: he came here some time ago, telling us about more than ten reinstalls of different linux distros with similar problems
[20:54] <tuomas_> good evening
[20:54] <killakali408650> can anyone help me???
[20:55] <magnetron> !helpme | killakali408650
[20:55] <BCM43> !hi | tuomas_
[20:55] <Steve-cal> navetz: or do "man smbclient" might be what you need.
[20:55] <ArthurArchnix> xri: I did a memtest a week ago and there were no problems. It can't be a binary install problem because nothing new was installed, the packages were only beginning to download. I can fsk the disk, but I have a large number of partitions on an extended partition, is it safe, do you know of a good primer? i'll take a look at the man page obviously. Thanks Magnetron, I don't recall seeing this error before. But as I said, my m
[20:55] <navetz> Steve-cal: thanks
[20:55] <linkmaster03> How can I have Pidgin autostart and connect on boot?
[20:55] <killakali408650> okay, how can i make ubuntu see my t9300 intel processor
[20:55] <ariqz> i've seen the wiki page many times, jrib. It's that I can't access /dev/ttySM0 without root. gnome-ppp doesn't require a password by default
[20:55] <soundray> killakali408650: describe your problem on a single line please.
[20:55] <xri> magnetron: so bad hardware or PBKAC ;-) some CPUs might be not 100% intel compatible and cause strange problems.
[20:55] <jrib> ariqz: you're in those groups it mentions?
[20:56] <soundray> ariqz: what do you get from 'ls -l /dev/ttySM0'?
[20:56] <BCM43> linkmaster03: go to presences, then sessons.
[20:56] <zetheroo> Firefox 3.0 in Ubuntu Hardy has an issue it seems with login pages...... quite often I find myself in a loop with the login page after having been told I have successfully logged into the site .... I am repeatedly sent back to the login page.... WHY???
[20:56] <Flannel> killakali408650: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[20:56] <ArthurArchnix> xri: magnetron Plus, everything works fine except for sudo, so that doesn't seem to point in the direction of hardware failure.
[20:56] <xri> ArthurArchnix: what CPU do you have? cat /proc/cpu
[20:56] <opn6> #ubuntu-server
[20:56] <killakali408650> when i was doing the memory test the system said i had a p3 processor, when i actually have a dual core processor, i am worried that the system isn't using both of the cores how can i fix this
[20:56] <linkmaster03> BCM43: thanks i had no clue ubuntu had that, whoa :o
[20:56] <way2go4me_> i'm looking for worldchat
[20:57] <magnetron> ArthurArchnix: plz don't start. it IS a hardware problem. we discussed this to great length. i've got nothing to add
[20:57] <BCM43> !info worldchat
[20:57] <freddy_engels> I keep having this problem where nothing loads after I login except for my wallpapers a  I can't figure out if the problem is with gnome or xorg or what. Does anyone know what to do?
[20:57] <soundray> killakali408650: do a 'cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep ^processor'. How many lines do you see?
[20:57] <ArthurArchnix> magnetron: I think you've got the wrong guy.
[20:57] <zetheroo> Firefox 3.0 in Ubuntu Hardy has an issue it seems with login pages...... quite often I find myself in a loop with the login page after having been told I have successfully logged into the site .... I am repeatedly sent back to the login page.... WHY???
[20:57] <way2go4me_> always used mirc
[20:57] <BCM43> zetheroo: please wait a little longer before asking again
[20:58] <freddy_engels> btw syslog reports some errors with pulseaudio
[20:58] <ArthurArchnix> xri: Its under cpuinfo, but its a intel duo core t2050
[20:58] <xri> ArthurArchnix: well there is also an unlikely chance that you have an error in the config file and sudo crashes instead of printing an error message. but that's rather unlikely that tools is in wide use, bugs are usually found..
[20:58] <tuomas_> My hardy heron doesn't allow any other ICON THEME except gnome, how come? after last general updates my earlier icons were replaced by ghastly gnome-ones. Any clues?
[20:58] <releod> anyone know of a good motherboard that has RAID built-in? Preferably 4-6 SATA slots too
[20:58] <soundray> releod: wrong channel. Try ##hardware
[20:58] <xri> ArthurArchnix: thats a normal CPU, i have a core 2 duo too. that is not the problem. hmm
[20:58] <releod> oops
[20:58] <releod> thanks!
[20:59] <Ktron> Why would nmap localhost show something different than an nmap from a machine on the same network?
[20:59] <zetheroo> anyone?
[20:59] <macsim> hi, when I extract an archive with file-roller, my firefox freeze while the extration, am I the only one or is it something known ?
[20:59] <magnetron> Ktron: nmap localhost scans on the loopback interface
[20:59] <Flannel> !patience | zetheroo
[21:00] <xri> ArthurArchnix: if you want to go lowlevel... you could enable core files. let it crash and analyze the core file with gdb... but that needs some programming experience
[21:00] <erUSUL> Ktron: becouse localhost goes through lo and the other is through another iface (ethn or wlann)
[21:00] <ariqz> soundray: a whole mess of junk I can't remember all of. :P
[21:00] <Ktron> magnet, ah... so for some reason cups is listening on lo and not my other adapters...
[21:00] <ariqz> root root dates
[21:00] <ArthurArchnix> This all happened during my update. I'm gonna restart in single user again and purge myself of /tmp /var/cache and any gnome locks or such. xri, yeah, that's well beyond me. If cleaning out my apt directories doesn't solve it I'll create a new user and see if sudo works for it.  Back in a bit.
[21:00] <Lifeisfunny> Would anyone happen to know when 'ppa.launchpad' sources are going to become authenticated?
[21:00] <xri> ArthurArchnix: one step easier would be running "strace sudo" and see what it tries to load/do before it crashes
[21:00] <zetheroo> Flannel: maybe its just my internet connection ... but it seems that nothing is moving in here,.... like not much activity....
[21:00] <soundray> ariqz: you're making it a real pleasure to help you. Have a good day\
[21:01] <erUSUL> Ktron: System>Admin>Printers> Sever preferences
[21:01] <ArthurArchnix> xri... good Idea. I'll install strace while I'm in single user mode.
[21:01] <ArthurArchnix> thanks
[21:01] <ariqz> soundray: the computer is in a whole other room, it doesn't have irc installed or anything, so I could download it, get on in there and you'd be gone by then anyway
[21:01] <Ktron> erUSUL, I don't have a GUI, I did a ubuntu server install and selected the Print Server option
[21:01] <ariqz> what part of it do you want?
