[07:19] <gdb> Munchkinguy: No, there isn't as far as I know.  The only free music formats I'm aware of (or that can be used for music) are .au, .snd, .wav, .ogg, and .flac (don't know the extension for that one).  There may be more I'm not aware of.
[07:19] <Methodeux> The last time I was tinkering with Linux, that was the hot thing.
[07:20] <chunksoul> it's an old server
[07:20] <goatmale> I accidenty delted the thing on top that tells me what programs are open
[07:20] <goatmale> how do I fix that?
[07:20] <gdb> bilss_: You're trying to build raw source or a debian source package?
[07:20] <garryF> check out in goggle about grubfarm, its a site that tells you how to recover via grub, reinstall it etc etc.
[07:20] <AAA> chunksoul  checkout john the ripper then ;)
[07:20] <omar> I'm not shure.... haven't used Elinghtment !
[07:21] <kuzmaster> painkiler, get into terminal, and run grub
[07:21] <pepsi> painkiler, mount your root partition somewhere, then run grub-install, showing it where to find the /boot directory
[07:21] <gdb> Methodeux: It's still around, however it's pretty much relegated to the ricer crowd. ;-)
[07:21] <kuzmaster> !grub
[07:21] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[07:21] <Broadcast> ok, i changed the 022 in the profile
[07:21] <painkiler> I know
[07:21] <Broadcast> now what
[07:21] <limes24> so, my system has video working now, but it dies with a kernel panic: not syncing: attempting to kill init!
[07:21] <painkiler> just did that
[07:21] <Broadcast> i cant delete stuff still
[07:21] <AAA> kill init! who needs it...
[07:21] <gdb> Broadcast: That's pretty much it.  You'll need to relog for changes to take place or just type "umask 020" on the commnad line, create a directory, and see what happens.
[07:21] <goatmale>  I accidenty delted the thing on top that tells me what programs are open how can I get it back?
[07:21] <limes24> but now I kind of want to reinstall to get xubuntu anyway
[07:21] <Broadcast> MMM
[07:21] <Broadcast> well
[07:21] <Broadcast> brb
[07:21] <AAA> goatmale  screen -ls works for me =p
[07:22] <omar> Hold it :) I will prepare my coffe :)
[07:22] <farous> goatmale: right click on the panel and add window list
[07:22] <kuzmaster> painkiler, when i had that problem, just go into the grub bash , and ran somtihng like update grub
[07:22] <farous> if that what you are looking for
[07:22] <Mattchewie> limes24, how did you get that up and running?
[07:22] <gdb> afk for a bit
[07:22] <limes24> I just waited for a while and tried it again
[07:22] <AAA> gdb for know for a bit?
[07:22] <Broadcast> still man

[07:23] <AAA> goatmale  hahah, then dump your gui crap and run cli only :)
[07:23] <No1Viking> My computer says to me that I'm running OpenGL with software emulation. How do I make this to work directly with the hardware?

[07:23] <Broadcast> Cannot move "/home/omra...ess-1.4.3" to the trash because you do not have permissions to change it or its parent folder.

[07:36] <nechto13> sktx: yes, but i can try it to make sure. i had a problem with xorg.conf when i had too many resolutions added to it resulted in my monitor displaying a black screen instead of logon, since i fixed it the problem might have gone away though
[07:36] <tpelliott> I'm a newbie.  I need help accessing my ubuntu network from Windows XP.  I can type in the location and it tries to connect but it won't accept the name and password I use to log into ubuntu.

[07:37] <Broadcast> how do i reset the fstab file
[07:37] <deshantm_> tpelliott, how are you trying to access it?
[07:37] <analiser> deshantm_,  the problem is, i have so much modules load, and i put the card on monitor mode
[07:38] <farous> tpelliott: do you have ssh server installed or how you connect ot it
[07:38] <AAA> sktx  no, but it filters the questions I answer to a minimum :)

[07:40] <deshantm_> analiser, you will need to find the code and rebuild the module
[07:40] <tpelliott> I'm tryint to access it by typint "//<name>" in Windows Explorer
[07:40] <AAA> tpelliott  \\

[07:54] <farous> No1Viking: the only thing i see is that your device aticonf-device 0 do not have the busid for the card
[07:54] <bilss_> gbd: so first do apt-get source mixmaster then apt-get build-dep mixmaster?
[07:54] <farous> No1Viking: other then that seems ok
[07:54] <Qwell> Broadcast: Linux doesn't have folders
[07:54] <codecaine> theres not htdocs
[07:54] <Broadcast> now i need to change it and make it free for all to view, edit
[07:54] <RaCarter> i just did ifconfig eth0 -promisc a few minutes ago
[07:54] <Broadcast> ?
[07:55] <skavenge> maybe try gstreamer back end, xine doesnt work well for me either
[07:55] <codecaine> theres a apache2-default there
[07:55] <RaCarter> then I do ifconfig eth0 | grep "promisc"
[07:55] <RaCarter> nothing
[07:55] <No1Viking> farous, what should it be instead and how do I check it?
[07:55] <digital> before I log out are there any other Ubuntu servers that are off line?
[07:56] <Qwell> digital: I couldn't seem to hit one of the .ca servers earlier..
[07:56] <bilss_> gdb: i tend to use aptitude thats ok?
[07:56] <Qwell> or, rather, ca.
[07:56] <farous> look at the device above it it shoudl be the last line in it to be added to the aticonfig-device o, add the line BusID   "PCI:1:0:0"
[07:56] <fluxinator> Any possible help ?????? An error occurred while loading user interface element local_background_image_chooserbutton from file /usr/share/gdm/gdmsetup.glade.  Possibly the glade interface description was corrupted.  gdm cannot continue and will exit now.
[07:56] <jmichaelx> you would be well advised to just quit using  the .us servers, they are on the blink most of the time
[07:56] <digital> Qwell: ca? Where is that?
[07:56] <Commander-Crowe> all of us is down
[07:56] <Qwell> canada
[07:56] <Commander-Crowe> use uk
[07:56] <RaCarter> does anyone know how to take your net interface off of promiscuous mode?
[07:56] <Commander-Crowe> cali

[07:57] <digital> Are they taking all the Ubuntu servers off line?
[07:57] <protestingrab> that is the error for one file out of many
[07:57] <No1Viking> farous, I dont understand where to do the changes
[07:57] <Qwell> digital: yes, ubuntu was bought my Microsoft, and is being shut down

[07:57] <No1Viking> farous, Would you like to give me a paste?

[07:57] <No1Viking> BBL, breakfast
[07:57] <Commander-Crowe> digital: lol no it hasn't
[07:58] <digital> Maybe this has something to do with the root exploit in the kernel
[07:58] <digital> Qwell: Lol
[07:58] <protestingrab> just wondering if anyone else had the same problem and knew how to fix it
[07:58] <fluxinator> Qwell: sorry about that but my questions are being snowed in
[07:58] <RaCarter> if I do ifconfig eth0 -promisc twice... the second time it will turn off promisc mode?
[07:58] <phrizer> Is there no way to install Dapper without having to boot the live cd? Like you use to be able to do. The live CD is really causing it to be very unresponsive.
[07:58] <Commander-Crowe> digital: there just updating it'll be up soon
[07:58] <jay> how do u get rid of the "Mesa" string when u type "fglrxinfo", i hav an ATI card
[07:58] <digital> Commander-Crowe: I see
[07:58] <farous> No1Viking: open the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file and scroll down to Section Device  , Identifer aticonfig-Device[0] "
[07:58] <Qwell> jay: Why do you want to get rid of Mesa?
[07:59] <digital> Well, I got apt working and rebuilt my mail server. I think it's been a good day.
[07:59] <quietas> Wondering the same Phrizer, a boot disk cdrom or net install is what I am looking for also
[07:59] <digital> By all
[07:59] <spades> i think the alternate cd has a text mode installed, not sure on that though
[07:59] <Qwell> phrizer, quietas: I'm currently installing via net boot
[08:00] <bilss_> gdb: there is one more package  here http://packages.ubuntulinux.org/dapper/mail/echolot which i will need is the same principle applied atp-get sorce echlolot?
[08:00] <Qwell> somebody make my partitioning go faster
[08:00] <fluxinator> I am having a GDM problem, particularly with System>Administration>Login Window
[08:00] <quietas> Qwell: How are you doing it?
[08:01] <Qwell> quietas: I used the net boot installer..

[08:01] <fluxinator> An error occurred while loading user interface element local_background_image_chooserbutton from file /usr/share/gdm/gdmsetup.glade.  Possibly the glade interface description was corrupted.  gdm cannot continue and will exit now. this is the error message
[08:01] <phrizer> I had to install an older version prior to dapper, that i had laying around, because dapper's livecd install system was extremely unresponsive.
[08:01] <Qwell> http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/dapper-updates/main/installer-sparc/current/images/sparc64/netboot/2.6/  - obviously, that's for sparc, but...
[08:01] <phrizer> then i couldnt use the dapper cd to update.
[08:02] <Commander-Crowe> bye all
[08:02] <Commander-Crowe> gotta go to work :(
[08:02] <Qwell> 3 hours to partition a drive...

[08:04] <polpak> Broadcast: you get a bootable windows install CD
[08:04] <Qwell> hey, neat, you can ctrl-c the partition tool over serial console
[08:04] <AAA> fluxinator  does that file even exist?
[08:04] <Broadcast> i dont have
[08:04] <ToHellWithGA> is there a way i can tail my apache2 access.log into a webpage so the links are links and such?  some kind of live parsing
[08:04] <quietas> Qwell: no idea, smart boot manager had no luck
[08:05] <fluxinator> AAA I dont think so, but ill double check
[08:05] <nrdb> I am trying to play a DVD totem is saying that I dont have the appropriate plugins I have install mad0 and libdvdread3 what else do I need?
[08:05] <DarkMageZ> hi, what ip address is wiki.ubuntu.com suppost to resolve to?
[08:06] <cius> hey hey all
[08:06] <AAA> fluxinator  then maybe you are missing some glade libs or some'n try: dpkg -l|grep glade
[08:06] <cius> is it okay to go ass to mouth?
[08:06] <RaCarter> thanks AAA
[08:06] <AAA> fluxinator  then apt-cache search glade gnome
[08:06] <RaCarter> in promisc mode... you will only be able to pick up packets on that switch?
[08:07] <RaCarter> i have one router and some pc's connected to it.. and then some other ones connected through a switch
[08:07] <fluxinator> AAA everything seems there
[08:07] <A-L-P-H-A> is the wiki working for anyone?
[08:07] <AAA> RaCarter  not exactly. promisc means it listens to traffic "more intently" it actually seeks out more information from arp replies and such
[08:07] <DarkMageZ> A-L-P-H-A, it's down for me
[08:08] <ExVate> hola
[08:08] <A-L-P-H-A> DarkMageZ, dang. okay. thanks.
[08:08] <DarkMageZ> A-L-P-H-A, i've had other reports of it working for other users
[08:08] <nrdb> A-L-P-H-A: it is down here too
[08:08] <AAA> fluxinator  if the file is on your system then I can only offer basic troubleshooting advise
[08:08] <RaCarter> I am just noticing that I am not picking up much traffic on the pc with the switch
[08:08] <ExVate> alguien habla espaol?
[08:08] <RaCarter> and I don't seem to pick up that much from my wireless router either...
[08:08] <limes24> hablo un poco de espaol

[08:09] <AAA> RaCarter  what are you using to monitore tcp/ip e'tal
[08:10] <AAA> RaCarter  yah
[08:10] <nrdb> What plugin do I need for totem to play a DVD?

[08:11] <AAA> mmmm captain css
[08:12] <skavenge> nrdb: did you get that? its the install script you need to run after installing libdvdread3 ..
[08:13] <RaCarter> so -promisc stops promiscuous and promisc (without dash) starts it?
[08:13] <RaCarter> or the other way around?
[08:13] <fluxinator> GLADE=CANCER
[08:13] <AAA> RaCarter  I am not going to tell you. trial and error "wax on...wax off"
[08:13] <soaper> Okay, um, how do I set an environment variable in GTK?
[08:14] <soaper> Because whenever I run a certain program, the debug script generated,
[08:14] <nrdb> skavenge: ok I did that but still totem is saying it doesn't have the appropriate plugin?
[08:14] <soaper> says that "--disable-crash-dialog = 1"
[08:14] <soaper> even though I want it to equal 0
[08:14] <soaper> Running the program with the option results in a "invalid option method"
[08:14] <soaper> so where do I put the option?
[08:15] <fluxinator> AAA i am really lost
[08:15] <Deham> Quick question.  Can you install ubuntu on an external hard drive like your F: drive instead of your normal C: drive which runs windows?
[08:15] <skavenge> nrdb: i dont think if your using totem-gstreamer backend it will work, it either has to be totem-xine or another player, vlc, mplayer, xine
[08:16] <nrdb> skavenge: do you think I should install totem-xine then?
[08:17] <AAA> fluxinator  sup

[08:20] <fluxinator> AAA any suggestions
[08:20] <skavenge> roe: no, but if you browse gnome-look.org the majority of the themes you can just drag right into the theme manager to add
[08:20] <roe> ok, thanx
[08:21] <A-L-P-H-A> DarkMageZ, it goes to <IP_ADDRESS>

[08:30] <morphix> is there a bug on xfce? when i go to menu editor it clears the normal menu and now i am stuck with no menu at all, so i have to try to reconfigure the menu via a terminal window :/
[08:30] <morphix> !ping
[08:30] <ubotu> pong
[08:30] <morphix> seems kinda lagged in  here.
[08:31] <durt> theres an xfce menu editor?
[08:31] <morphix> lol yes there is.
[08:32] <morphix> to edit xfce's app menu, except it clears when u go into menu editor :/
[08:32] <morphix> so now i have no menu at all now
[08:32] <zymorph> where can I download various xfce desktop themes?
[08:32] <nathanj> is the wiki down?
[08:33] <sam__> _samp_
[08:33] <gdb> morphix: If you want to restore it, it had to be set somehow when you first logged in with no configuration so I'd suggest figuring out where the menu is configured (in your home directory) and deleting that config (from a tty while not logged in via X) and then logging into the desktop again. That will allow xfce to detect that you have no configurating and recreate the default.
[08:33] <polpak> !theme
[08:33] <ubotu> Find your themes at: http://www.gnome-look.org - http://kdelook.org - http://themes.freshmeat.net/browse/58/ - http://www.guistyles.com - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/ - Also see !changethemes and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuEyeCandy
[08:33] <zymorph> thanks!
[08:33] <test> can anybody tell me how to get the gtk greeter option back in GDM?
[08:34] <gdb> test: System -> Administration -> Login Window -- it's in there somewhere.  It's also pretty obvious once you find it.
[08:34] <sam__> yo found it
[08:35] <morphix> gdb: well the issue is, i have no xfce menu config saved anywhere in my home folder, also why the heck would the xfce menu editor totally delete the current menu thats default? i just want to ammend to the current menu
[08:35] <test> gdb: I looked in there, but i migt have missed it, I'll look again thanks

[08:36] <gdb> teun: Sure thing
[08:36] <Mattchewie> the menu editor ...at least in xubunut doesn't seem to list applications and such, it just lets you edit things like ....showing run and logout options and other high leve menu items
[08:36] <Mattchewie> ...weird
[08:36] <gdb> morphix: I'm honestly not familiar with xfce.  There is no .xfce or similarly named directory in your home directory?
[08:37] <Mattchewie> morphix, have you treid to query the xubuntu channel?
[08:37] <montag> Hey all. help.ubuntu.com and the wiki are down, so I decided to come here for some help.
[08:38] <morphix> hmm.. well i found a blank xfce menu config... and no i havent asked xubutnu channel.
[08:38] <montag> Looking to get WMVs playing in Dapper. I thought I'd gone through the steps earlier, but I'm not getting any picture. Tried downloading VLC, still no luck.

[08:39] <durt> the menu information should be in /etc/xdg/xfce4/desktop/ i think. as long as thats ok get rid of the corresponding files in ~/.xfce4 or ~/.xdg, and replace them
[08:39] <gdb> abhinav: http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/ will get you a utility that makes setting that up easy.
[08:39] <montag> Aye, multimedia page is down tonight.
[08:40] <morphix> gdb: yeh, its xfce4-menu.xml, luckily i still had a terminal open before the menu disappeared.
[08:40] <econthrust> guys, anyone knows where I can change the gnome main menu ubuntu icon to the default gnome foot one?
[08:40] <morphix> actually xfce4-menu1.rc
[08:40] <gdb> morphix: :-D  If that file is empty, then you can rename or delete it (when logged in via tty, NOT the desktop), and then when you log back in, it should be recreated for you (in theory!).
[08:41] <montag> Anyone know how to get WMVs up and running for Dapper?
[08:41] <inazad_> Hi there, I need some help...
[08:41] <gdb> econthrust: Yes, however, it's very very hard to do.
[08:41] <morphix> well its wasnt totally empty but didnt point to anything
[08:41] <econthrust> doesnt matter, pls private me if u know how to do it
[08:41] <morphix> i'll see what happens when i log out and back in
[08:42] <gdb> econthrust: You need to change all of the distributor-logo.png icons (every single one) in /usr/share/icons.  You need to make sure they're all correctly sized, as well.  Of course, that make not work so you'll instead need to download the source package of ubuntu-artwork, replace those icons, and then install your new package.
[08:43] <econthrust> thanks gdb! i get to it :)
[08:43] <gdb> econthrust: I can't say if they're compiled in or not.  That's why I offer two things to try.  I'd suspect that simply replacing them in /usr/share/icons will do it.
[08:44] <gdb> econthrust: On the bright side, there are only 4 of them to replace, but they are different sizes.
[08:44] <econthrust> gdb, ok, i try the easiest one first, then go ahead to the packages
[08:44] <inazad_> I can't go to the Internet with my WiFi connection... only with the Ethernet connection... How I can set up my WiFi connection... ??
[08:45] <ic56> join #vim
[08:45] <gdb> econthrust: Why it's not easy to do out of the box, I have no idea.  It could be that the GNOME team feels it shouldn't be changed without a lot of effort.  But that being said, the Ubuntu philosophy is that you should be able to modify your software to behave however you like. ;-)
[08:46] <cwillu> what was the trick for non-free flash on amd64 then?  something about installing the 32 bit version of firefox?
[08:46] <econthrust> gdb, :) yes, that's "modify as u like" is why i changed from windows 2 month ago, and i love this place :)
[08:46] <inazad_> What's going on with Backports on Ubuntu servers ?
[08:47] <rixth> I can't find any info on Google, but is it likely that Ubuntu will work with an onboard gigabit LAN? The chipset is Vitesse VSC8601
[08:47] <gdb> inazad_: It's not backports, it's us.archive.ubuntu.com which is down.  I don't know if the wiki is on the same server or not, but it's down, too.  I'd suspect a network failure rather than a system failure somewhere.
[08:48] <inazad_> gdb, ohh thats explain why I can't connect :-)

[08:56] <No1Viking> Have trouble with my ATI Radeon 9800 Pro. Cant get OpenGL to work with hardware. At the moment it's emulated by software. Installed fglrx according to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto and got the result as follows in http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18672. Any good ideas?
[08:56] <Veselu> can anyone help me out with a mail server
[08:56] <Veselu> i'm stuck
[08:56] <userundefine> montag, yes, the package is w32codecs

[08:56] <rixth> Hey ya'll. Can anyone using the MSI K9N Neo motherboard confirm the onboard LAN (chipset: Vitesse VSC8601) works?
[08:57] <Veselu> -- can anyone help me out with a mail server --
[08:57] <Veselu> -- i'm stuck at imap server --
[08:57] <Dev05> Veselu, use Evolution.
[08:57] <Commander-Crowe> its too hot here to sleep
[08:58] <userundefine> no AC ?
[08:58] <montag> userundefine: Thought I had it installed, but a search in Synaptic turned up nothing. Also, I ran apt-get install w32codecs and it says the package is unavailable.
[08:58] <Commander-Crowe> no AC
[08:58] <userundefine> montag, it might be in a repository that's currently down.
[08:58] <userundefine> Commander-Crowe, I feel for you.  Been there myself
[08:58] <yoshiznit123> are the repos in the different countries kept in sync?
[08:58] <poje> montag: you need a diff repo to get w32codecs
[08:58] <poje> !restrictedformats > montag
[08:59] <Commander-Crowe> montag, w32codec isn't there anymore
[08:59] <Commander-Crowe> instead get ffmpeg\
[08:59] <Commander-Crowe> montag, ffmpeg
[09:00] <montag> ty. Will look.
[09:00] <blind> whaaaaaat
[09:00] <tich> does the gnome-power-manager control the cpu and fan or just the display settings and suspend?
[09:00] <IRCMonkeyx> hi people , i installed wine,than i installed acdsee by using wine but it is not at menus and no shortcut, its setup was at desktop , i installed it from desktop, and i dont know how to call acdsee program, new linux user here, pls help

[09:01] <montag> Commander-Crowe: Does ffmpeg replace w32codecs?
[09:01] <IRCMonkeyx> poje: they sent me here :)
[09:01] <Commander-Crowe> montag, yes
[09:01] <commctrl> IRCMonkeyx, why are you using acdsee when gthumb works?
[09:01] <poje> IRCMonkeyx: is acdsee a linux program or are you using it in wine?
[09:02] <Awesome-o2000> No1Viking, nice old school card though - that thing was best bang for the buck for a couple of years
[09:02] <warlocky-> Anyone know how to install SSH2 ?
[09:02] <snoops> commctrl there are varying degrees of programmes which do the same thing - some do it 'better' than others :)
[09:02] <IRCMonkeyx> commctrl: it was only for testing, i wanna know how to call new installed programs in wine and in linux
[09:02] <IRCMonkeyx> poje: in wine
[09:02] <No1Viking> Awesome-o2000, sure was
[09:02] <Veselu> Dev05, it's not about the client
[09:02] <No1Viking> Now I cant get it working with Ubuntu
[09:03] <Veselu> Dev05, it's about the server
[09:03] <warlocky-> Anyone know how to install SSH2 ?
[09:03] <commctrl> snoops, using wine to load a windows program is not preferable to a native linux program that does the same thing
[09:03] <poje> warlocky-: ssh server or client?
[09:03] <Dev05> Veselu, Oh... I got no idea then :(
[09:03] <warlocky-> ssh server
[09:03] <warlocky-> ssh2
[09:03] <poje> warlocky-: ssh2 is supported by the default stuff
[09:03] <warlocky-> I need this for some kind of a gamepanel
[09:03] <montag> Commander-Crowe: Anything else besides ffmpeg? Still not getting video after installing it.
[09:03] <warlocky-> well
[09:03] <poje> sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[09:03] <commctrl> IRCMonkeyx, you'd have to create a launcher yourself
[09:03] <analiser> ssssssss
[09:03] <warlocky-> poje, can we talk in priv for a second?
[09:03] <Veselu> Dev05, who can help  here with suck things?
[09:03] <Commander-Crowe> w32codec isn't video
[09:03] <Commander-Crowe> w32codec is audio
[09:03] <poje> warlocky: sudo apt-get install openssh-server will install an ssh serv for ya
[09:04] <warlocky-> well
[09:04] <warlocky-> I need ssh2
[09:04] <warlocky-> not ssh
[09:04] <Commander-Crowe> you need libdvdread3
[09:04] <IRCMonkeyx> commctrl: some hints?
[09:04] <fyre|work> warlocky-: its the same thing
[09:04] <Dev05> Veselu, What is what you're trying to do?
[09:04] <poje> warlocky-: it's supported
[09:04] <warlocky-> well
[09:04] <warlocky-> not on the gamepanel, for some reason
[09:04] <warlocky-> can you help me out poje? i'll show you
[09:04] <montag> Got that installed.
[09:04] <Veselu> Dev05, can't we talk on private, i've registered my nick!
[09:04] <Awesome-o2000> No1Viking, hang in there, you will get there eventually - if you need to you can use the proprietary driver and it makes you a .deb package for your particular distro
[09:04] <commctrl> IRCMonkeyx, accessories > alacarte menu editor. File > New Entry. then "wine <path to acdsee.exe>"
[09:04] <arooni> folks how can i grep recursively in all sub directories?
[09:04] <poje> warlocky-: yeah, pm me, I'm boredish
[09:05] <poje> arooni: grep -r

[09:05] <userundefine> man grep | grep recursive
[09:05] <montag> Hold on. brb
[09:05] <Commander-Crowe> montag, you need to activate it
[09:06] <poje> No1Viking: could you pastebin you're /var/X11/Xorg.0.log for me if you're still having issues
[09:06] <rixth> Are the nforce5 chipsets supported yet?
[09:06] <poje> *your
[09:07] <No1Viking> poje, sure, please wait
[09:07] <Dev05> Veselu, Do you get my messages in the private window?
[09:07] <IRCMonkeyx> commctrl: one more stupid question, when i search i cant find path of acdsee32, but it is installed i am sure, cause i run it after installation
[09:07] <mdious> I'm heading off, Cya everyone.
[09:08] <montag> Commander-Crowe: No luck with WMV video still.
[09:08] <Commander-Crowe> YEAH
[09:08] <poje> IRCMonkeyx: locate acdsee32
[09:08] <Veselu> Dev05, no, i'm registeref though
[09:08] <Commander-Crowe> they have shipit for kubuntu and edubuntu
[09:08] <Commander-Crowe> montag, you need to activate it
[09:08] <Dev05> Veselu, I'm not. How do you do that>
[09:08] <Dev05> ?
[09:08] <montag> Commander-Crowe: How do you do that?

[09:09] <IRCMonkeyx> poje: "sudo locate acdsee32 " is it all?
[09:10] <poje> IRCMonkeyx: yes
[09:10] <Veselu> Dev05, and msg me when you're done
[09:10] <IRCMonkeyx> thanx, lets try
[09:10] <commctrl> why would you have to sudo?
[09:10] <poje> IRCMonkeyx: a "sudo locate -u" could be helpful if you just installed it
[09:10] <poje> commctrl: to look in dirs you don't have perms for
[09:10] <IRCMonkeyx> i can do it as root
[09:12] <frogzoo> where are the system wide xresources, pls?
[09:12] <guest128> I just changed my monitor from a fifteen inch to a seventeen inch. Now Ubuntu logs into the desktop, but, the menu bars/desktop icons/background are all gone. Lucklily I had set up a hot key for the terminal, but does anyone know what's up?
[09:13] <rixth> Can I install ubuntu on a system with the nforce5 chipset?
[09:13] <frogzoo> guest128: I'm guessing the menu bars are there - you just need to scroll the window?

[09:13] <No1Viking> pastebin down?
[09:14] <^Manu> hello people.
[09:14] <^Manu> i'm wondering if anyone can help me with a problem i'm having with ubuntu's bootloader.
[09:14] <frogzoo> !helpme
[09:14] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[09:15] <guest128> How am I supposed to scroll around on my desktop?
[09:15] <^Manu> i installed ubuntu using its installer. appeared to work fine.. installed the bootloader on the MBR, and then my PC wouldnt boot..
[09:15] <guest128> Not much scrolling to be done, unfortunately
[09:15] <guest128> I figured it was just a resolution problem
[09:15] <^Manu> i'm thinking this may be because i have windows installed in an ATA drive, and i installed linux on a SATA drive.
[09:15] <frogzoo> guest128: try 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' & then we'll see
[09:15] <^Manu> and the bootloader couldnt deal with that.
[09:16] <^Manu> i found a win9x cd and restored the MBR, but i dont wanna try it again until i know it'll work, i have too much on this PC to be fucking my partition table.
[09:16] <No1Viking> poje, I'm trying to use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ but it does not take the paste
[09:16] <frogzoo> ^Manu: it should be able to actually - cat /boot/grub/device.map
[09:16] <poje> No1Viking: try pastebin.ca
[09:17] <poje> No1Viking: I never have luck with the ubuntu or .com ones
[09:17] <^Manu> i'm in windows again now. i managed to get it booting again.
[09:17] <frogzoo> !language
[09:17] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[09:17] <^Manu> sorry

[09:17] <montag> Anyone familiar with that one?
[09:17] <DJTripleThreat> I have a question about getting numlock on by default for kubuntu
[09:17] <frogzoo> ^Manu: s'cool - just if people don't watch the swearing, it soon gets out of control
[09:18] <DJTripleThreat> do i do that in init.d?
[09:18] <^Manu> i had another friend who claimed he had a similar problem with ata/sata installations

[09:19] <frogzoo> !fishing
[09:19] <Commander-Crowe> montag: try sudo apt-cache search libdvd
[09:19] <pepsi> ^Manu, ive been having a problem with it installing the bootloader onto the wrong hard drive too... i figured it out though.. its because i told the bios to boot from SATA, so grub sees SATA as the first hard drive, but the ubuntu installer sees the PATA drives as being first, so it installed grub to /dev/hda instead of /dev/sda
[09:19] <No1Viking> farous, poje is trying to help out right now
[09:19] <poje> No1Viking: pm me or make a chan, there's no reason to flood the main with our ramblings - I'm looking over your log
[09:19] <guest128> How does one log out from the command line?
[09:19] <farous> No1Viking: goodluck
[09:19] <poje> No1Viking: make a chan and we'll get anyone else wanting to help/watch to join
[09:19] <^Manu> i installed it to on MBR.
[09:20] <No1Viking> ok
[09:20] <pepsi> ^Manu, i was able to just reinstall grub from rescue mode on the cd, but on a subsequent installs, i took out the power connectors from the PATA drives, leaving only SATA
[09:20] <Commander-Crowe> XFCE IS AT 70% AFTER 22 HOURS OF DOWNLOADING!!!!!!!!
[09:20] <pepsi> then after it installed, connect the PATA drives again
[09:20] <^Manu> hmmm
[09:20] <poje> Commander-Crowe: ctrl-c, up key, enter
[09:20] <poje> Commander-Crowe: it will resume
[09:20] <frogzoo> Commander-Crowe: & will stay at 70% until the us repos are backup
[09:20] <^Manu> but then when i install, it wont find the windows partition;
[09:20] <poje> Oh yeah
[09:21] <poje> and change repos ;d
[09:21] <bilss_> hi
[09:21] <Madpilot> Commander-Crowe, ease up on the CAPS - and there seem to be some issues with the Ubuntu website right now...
[09:21] <Commander-Crowe> I'm using the uk repos
[09:21] <frogzoo> guest128: just hit ctrl alt backspace a couple of times
[09:21] <No1Viking> poje, join #fglrxprobs
[09:21] <Commander-Crowe> its going fine
[09:21] <pepsi> ^Manu, ok.. then when you install, tell it to install grub to your sata drive.. /dev/sda or whatever, instaed of hd0
[09:21] <No1Viking> and all others that want ot solve the problem I have  :)
[09:21] <No1Viking> #fglrxprobs
[09:21] <ku> I know this sounds like a dumb quetion (and it probably is) but how do I extract a bin file?  I'll just work from the command line.
[09:24] <guest128> It'll be a learning experience or something
[09:24] <Commander-Crowe> 75 FRIGGIN %%%%%
[09:24] <nol13> is there any easy (or not so easy) was to burn avi files onto either a vcd or dvd
[09:24] <Commander-Crowe> I'm on dail up so it takes a while
[09:24] <nol13> was = ways
[09:24] <frogzoo> pepsi: that should be possible, but you'd have to do it after grub was installed, & reinstall it before the install reboots
[09:24] <farous> Commander-Crowe: check netselect-apt
[09:24] <farous> Commander-Crowe: or just use the main archives
[09:25] <Commander-Crowe> farous: why?
[09:25] <bilss_> how to copy a dir from one user say bliss to admin with all the same permissions?
[09:25] <farous> Commander-Crowe: netselect-apt will search for the fastest repos
[09:25] <farous> and you are complaining of speed
[09:25] <Commander-Crowe> oh
[09:25] <Commander-Crowe> thats ok
[09:25] <Commander-Crowe> I'm not complaining
[09:25] <^Manu> okay so you reckon if i install it again, and install grub on the MBR, and it stops my PC from booting.
[09:25] <farous> ok
[09:25] <Commander-Crowe> I'm rejoycing
[09:25] <^Manu> then i can boot from CD in recovery mode and fix it somehow?
[09:26] <Commander-Crowe> howdo I open .bin?
[09:26] <pepsi> frogzoo, yeah, the issue was that during install, my sata drive was hd3 instead of hd0, but then when i boot from the hard drive, it's hd0, so i was able to tell it to install onto /dev/sda, then the bios booted the SATA drive, and i modified the boot entry to be hd0
[09:26] <farous> :)
[09:26] <Commander-Crowe> !bin
[09:26] <ubotu> I know nothing about bin - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[09:26] <dibblego> how do I change what appears in the "Open with" list?
[09:26] <bilss_> frogzoo: hows the winw going
[09:26] <bilss_> wine
[09:26] <Commander-Crowe> anyone?
[09:26] <Commander-Crowe> !ban
[09:26] <ubotu> If you have been banned it is probably because you have not gone along with what is acceptable behaviour. If you're not sure what acceptable behaviour is please see http://www.ubuntu.com/community/conduct/
[09:26] <ic56> bilss_: sudo cp -rp  <source> <target>
[09:26] <Jukru> Commander-Crowe: you don't open it...you execute it
[09:27] <poje> Commander-Crowe: make it executable and then run it
[09:27] <Commander-Crowe> Jukru: how?
[09:27] <nol13> help, i got my computer high and is hasnt been the same since.
[09:27] <inazad_> Hi there, what's the name of the file of the starting log...
[09:27] <dibblego> Commander-Crowe, chmod +x filename
[09:27] <montag> Update on WMVs: Downloaded w32codecs...i386.deb, but got an error when running 'sudo dpkg -i w32codecs...i386.deb'. Error says, "short read in buffer_copy (failed to write to pipe in copy)."
[09:27] <Commander-Crowe> poje: how?
[09:27] <poje> chmod +x yourFile;./yourFile
[09:27] <poje> Commander-Crowe: see above
[09:27] <pepsi> ^Manu, you can always tell grub how to boot your windows partition after the fact
[09:27] <pepsi> but just tell grub which disk you want it to install onto
[09:27] <Commander-Crowe> ok
[09:28] <pepsi> instead of just letting it pick one
[09:28] <bilss_> ic56: thanks so the source would be say /home/bliss and the target would be /home/admin?
[09:28] <ic56> bilss_ but you probably also want to change the ownerships so the target user will own the files.  Do that after with chown -r <new user>:<new group> <target dir>
[09:28] <dibblego> how do I change what appears in the "Open with" list when I right-click a file in the GNOMEE desktop?
[09:28] <^Manu> and what disk do i want to install it to? what difference does it make>?
[09:28] <dibblego> *GNOME
[09:28] <^Manu> whats wrong with where it installs be default?
[09:28] <pepsi> dibblego, get properties on a file of that type
[09:29] <pepsi> ^Manu, you installed to SATA and it clobbered a PATA mbr, right?
[09:29] <dibblego> pepsi, ah I see, thanks
[09:29] <ic56> bilss_: correct sudo cp -rp /home/bliss /home/admin
[09:29] <nol13> gentoo > ubuntu kn00bs
[09:29] <inazad_> what is the name of the "log file" of the starting of Ubuntu ???
[09:29] <^Manu> i dont really know, other than my PC wouldnt boot.. i dont know what it did because i couldnt boot the thing ;)
[09:29] <frogzoo> ^Manu: you probly want to install grub to the mbr on the disk that the bios looks at first - but which that is depends on the bios & bios settings
[09:29] <montag> Got some errors installing WMVs from the RestrictedFormat instructions on help.ubuntu.com. "failed to write to pipe in copy" when installing w32codecs.
[09:29] <^Manu> okay, thats PATA0
[09:30] <^Manu> the windows drive.
[09:30] <Commander-Crowe> how do I write a script to get a .bin file to start on every start up?
[09:30] <ku> wow, took me like two hours to install java lol
[09:30] <pepsi> ^Manu, if that drive will always be in the computer, you can just let it install it there
[09:30] <bilss_> ic56: if you lok at http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=220823 you will get an idea
[09:30] <frogzoo> ^Manu: if the bios & grub can't agree on which disk is which, you need to change /boot/grub/device.map
[09:30] <^Manu> okay
[09:30] <poje> Commander-Crowe: seriously, google is your friend
[09:30] <frogzoo> Commander-Crowe: copy the scripts in /etc/init.d/ & create a symlink S* in /etc/rc2.d/
[09:30] <^Manu> and how can i do that if i cant boot my PC?
[09:30] <pepsi> ^Manu, how did it not boot? what happened?
[09:31] <Commander-Crowe> poje: I did google, not much came up but I'll look some more
[09:31] <dibblego> Commander-Crowe, https://wiki.ubuntulinux.org/UbuntuBootupHowto
[09:31] <pepsi> ^Manu, did grub start?
[09:31] <^Manu> it gave the same error it gives if there is no hard drive attached to the computer at all..
[09:31] <pepsi> hrm
[09:31] <^Manu> no, it did nothing.
[09:31] <pepsi> like, the bios said it couldnt find anything at all?
[09:31] <^Manu> yep
[09:31] <Dalik> g'day peeps, I am using ubuntu and I also installed suse 10.1 (testing) and one of the first things I noticed is that suse is much quicker, loading and just opening applications.  Ubuntu it slow, for example loading firefox can take 7seconds just to load.  I think its because of the binaries are compiled for 386.  Can I recompile the software, mostly everything for 686 code? and how?
[09:31] <^Manu> which is why it scared me.
[09:32] <^Manu> if grub started, i wouldnt have been worried :P
[09:32] <pepsi> what disk does the bios try to boot first?
[09:32] <frogzoo> ^Manu: if you've got a grub  prompt, you can enter the grub settings manually to get the system up
[09:32] <^Manu> pata0
[09:32] <ic56> bilss_: I don't follow.  What is your question?
[09:32] <fyre|work> Dalik: better option would be to enable prelinking.
[09:33] <pepsi> ^Manu, maybe install grub to a floppy till you figure it out :) that definitely wouldnt clobber anything
[09:33] <Dalik> fyre, that would help the most?
[09:33] <frogzoo> ^Manu: from the grub prompt, enter 'find /boot'  & you'll see which hd it thinks grub is on
[09:33] <fyre|work> Dalik: yes, and its a lot simpler than recompiling everything.
[09:33] <inazad_> Anyone can help me here ?
[09:33] <fyre|work> !anyone
[09:33] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[09:34] <pepsi> frogzoo, it sounds like the bios didnt even load grub though, which is kind of interesting
[09:34] <frogzoo> ^Manu: then just update the settings to match
[09:34] <^Manu> frogzoo: i have no grub prompt, the bios gives me the same message as if there is no hard drive attached at all.
[09:34] <Commander-Crowe> "ms. jones taught me english but i think I shot here son"
[09:34] <pepsi> like it clobbered the MBR and didnt put grub on it?!
[09:34] <pepsi> so i dunno
[09:34] <Dalik> fyre|work: ok will give it a try thanks
[09:34] <euly> hi
[09:34] <Commander-Crowe> "cuz he owed me money ad with a bullet in your chest you cannot run"
[09:34] <^Manu> yeah i have no idea what it did, but i didnt like it ;)
[09:34] <^Manu> but i think i might give it another go.
[09:35] <pepsi> ^Manu, installing grub to a floppy should always work
[09:35] <euly> any ideas, how to stop X under ubuntu? Just pressing ctrl+alt+backspace works, but Gnome comes back up after a second.
[09:35] <^Manu> i'll install it on pata0
[09:35] <montag> Question: Running 'wget -c http://www.debian-multimedia.org/pool/main/w/w32codecs/w32codecs_20060611-0.0_i386.deb' downloads Debian.org's index.html file instead of w32codecs... Any way to correct this?
[09:35] <Commander-Crowe> there is no hoto for boot up
[09:35] <^Manu> i think grub and the bios will agree on that
[09:35] <dibblego> euly, sudo /etc/init.d gdm stop
[09:35] <^Manu> i dont have a floppy drive ;)
[09:35] <frogzoo> ^Manu: oh, sometimes bioses are wierd - need more info about your setup - you have 1 pata drive/1sata drive, but which os on which drives?
[09:35] <farous> euly: /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[09:35] <^Manu> silly nostalgic hardware.
[09:35] <inazad_> I don't see my WiFi card on the Network Setting ... I have edited the "/etc/network/interfaces" file and then... Now, when I boot, I obtain 2 errors about the network so.. Can you help me ?
[09:35] <euly> thank you!!
[09:35] <^Manu> has no place in my pc ;)
[09:35] <Commander-Crowe> I got it
[09:35] <farous> :)
[09:35] <pepsi> ^Manu, :P
[09:36] <^Manu> i have 2pata and 2 sata, windows is on pata0, linux is on sata0
[09:36] <frogzoo> montag: check the link - that should work
[09:36] <^Manu> the bios should be booting from pata0
[09:36] <inazad_> I don't see my WiFi card on the Network Setting ... I have edited the "/etc/network/interfaces" file and then... Now, when I boot, I obtain 2 errors about the network so.. Can you help me ?
[09:37] <fyre|work> Dalik: there is a howto on the forums for prelinking
[09:37] <^Manu> and installing grub in the default place caused it not to boot at all./
[09:37] <pepsi> ^Manu, google 'super grub'
[09:37] <dibblego> sometimes an application takes my sound and no other application can use it - even after I close the original application - can I somehow reset it?
[09:37] <bilss_> ic56: ok i have this dir caled /etc/suck and user lex1 is useing it now i want admin to use it , what it is its tranfering (i think not the directory but the permissions?) you see luser lex1 had a cron job with the suck programme in etc/suck and now this has been transfered to user name admin  the suck dir is in etc/suck its just the permissions need to be changed
[09:38] <fyre|work> bilss_: change the owner of that directory to 'admin' user.
[09:38] <Commander-Crowe> 89% DONE!!!!!!!!
[09:38] <fyre|work> dibblego: you can restart alsa, that might help.
[09:38] <inazad_> I don't see my WiFi card on the Network Setting ... I have edited the "/etc/network/interfaces" file and then... Now, when I boot, I obtain 2 errors about the network so.. Can you help me ?
[09:38] <dibblego> fyre|work, how would I do that exactly?
[09:38] <Dalik> fyre|work: looking at it now
[09:39] <montag> frogzoo: I went to Debian.org and there wasn't any mention of w32codecs on there.
[09:39] <fyre|work> dibblego: not sure, but try sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
[09:39] <dibblego> fyre|work, cheers
[09:39] <^Manu> is this a grub auto installer?
[09:39] <pepsi> ^Manu, it helps you fix grub problems ;)
[09:40] <^Manu> from windows?
[09:40] <pepsi> from itself
[09:40] <pepsi> you burn it to a cd and boot from it
[09:40] <frogzoo> ^Manu: one approach might be to d/l a cd with grub on it, & get into linux from there - then fix the device.map & 'sudo update-grub'
[09:40] <bilss_> fyrelwork ok thanks what I had to do in the case of  user lex1 was lex1@xstation:~$ sudo chmod 777 /etc/suck/sucknewsrc  and   lex1@xstation:~$ sudo chmod 777 /etc/suck   so now i must log in as user admin and do the same
[09:40] <fyre|work> bilss_: you need to change the ownership, not the permissions.
[09:40] <confused> anyone have any experience installing shareaza on ubuntu with wine and it connects alright?
[09:40] <^Manu> frogzoo, okay i'll try and install it again, and if i run into trouble i'll do that.
[09:41] <fyre|work> confused: install frostwire instead.
[09:41] <frogzoo> !w32codecs > montag
[09:41] <^Manu> i just didnt want to try again without asking about it.
[09:41] <^Manu> i'm really touchy about the stuff on this machine.
[09:41] <stiv2k> ok
[09:41] <bilss_> fyre|work  ok whats the command line for that please and from where
[09:41] <pepsi> ^Manu, id try the super grub cd first, lot quicker than reinstalling linux
[09:41] <Oni-Dracula> does anyone have knowledge pertaining to "splashy" the usplash replacement?
[09:42] <^Manu> okay i'll take a shot at it.
[09:42] <confused> fyre|work: I heared you can get shareaza to work but that file it needs to use g1+g2 networks didnt work for me for some reason :( do you know any p2p's that use g1/g2 networks for linux?
[09:42] <^Manu> i think the linux install is still in tact.
[09:42] <fyre|work> bilss_: sudo chmod username:groupname /etc/whatever
[09:42] <stiv2k> i STILL can't figure out why in linux, my wifi card seems considerably weaker than in windows, consequently me hardly being able to connect to my network..if it connects, only for a second before it drops...what gives/??
[09:42] <pepsi> ^Manu, exactly, if you can boot it, it should be fine
[09:42] <frogzoo> ^Manu: or another approach is read the grub docs, it's a bit confusing, but once you understand grub, it comes in handy regularly
[09:42] <^Manu> i was messing with the partitions at one point though.
[09:42] <fyre|work> confused: use frostwire, it runs natively on ubuntu, and connects to almost all p2p networks.
[09:42] <Commander-Crowe> 94% DONE!!!!!!!!!!!GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOGLE!!!!!!!!!!!!
[09:42] <Oni-Dracula> frostwire is highly unstable in my experiences
[09:42] <fyre|work> Commander-Crowe: you don't need to yell.
[09:43] <^Manu> frogzoo: yes i should, i've jsut never spent the time since i dont spend enough time with linux in general.
[09:43] <^Manu> i just want to install it so i can test the linux port of my game myself..
[09:43] <Oni-Dracula> and frostwire uses an incredibly amount of CPU, making your system go poopy
[09:43] <fyre|work> Oni-Dracula: its only as stable as the java on your machine. Over here it runs very smoothly.
[09:43] <bilss_> fyre|work: ok i know the user name is admin (i do not know the group name) and the dir is /etc/suck
[09:43] <Commander-Crowe> fyre|work: go back to your work
[09:43] <fyre|work> and doesn't hog cpu either :)
[09:43] <^Manu> i ported it to linux blindly and get my friends to compile and run it for me ;)
[09:43] <frogzoo> ^Manu: another thing to bear in mind is that bioses sometimes behave oddly when partitions are set 'active' expecting that's where the mbr is, so disabling the active flag sometimes helps, or is the cause of the problem
[09:43] <confused> fyre|work: where do you read that? it seems to me it only does one network and thats gnutella 1
[09:43] <fyre|work> bilss_: if you created this user, then the group name is the same as the user name (as is default in ubuntu)
[09:44] <fyre|work> confused: on its website.
[09:44] <^Manu> frogzoo: okay cool, i've always wondered what that was about.
[09:44] <ic56> bilss_: your writing is not very clear.  This is what I understood: you had a crontab in user lex1's name.  You changed the ownerhip of the directory hierarchy used by the some of the jobs in that crontab.  Now you need to change the user under which that crontab runs, to match the directory hierarchy's new ownership.  Did I understand you correctly?
[09:44] <montag> frogzoo: Thanks for the help. I'll try to work on it later.
[09:44] <fyre|work> ic56: no, he had a crontab running as one user, he shifted the crontab to another user, but now the process cannot write to some directory since its owned by the initial user (atleast that's my understanding)
[09:45] <montag> Commander-Crowe: Thanks for the help earlier. Gonna give up for now; bed time.
[09:45] <bilss_> ic56: yes it was lex1 now admin is runing the crontab lex1 is not
[09:45] <confused> fyre|work: do you know exactly where on there? cause im at it's site rite now and it looks like a clone of limewire with was a one network p2p (g1)
[09:45] <Commander-Crowe> montag: ok
[09:45] <Commander-Crowe> montag: try again tomarrow
[09:46] <fyre|work> confused: don't remember to be honest, I read it along time back.
[09:46] <montag> Will do.
[09:46] <fyre|work> !p2p
[09:46] <ubotu> Conventional P2P clients: Limewire/GTK-Gnutella/Frostwire (Gnutella Network). BitTorrent: see !torrent Direct connect: try valknut
[09:46] <confused> fyre|work: think you got some stuff mixed up ;)
[09:46] <ic56> bilss_: is fyre|work right or am I?
[09:46] <confused> yeah only gnutella but no gnutella 2
[09:47] <fyre|work> confused: oh hrmm ... what do I have it confused with then?
[09:47] <eniac_petrov> np: Yngwie Malmsteen - Air on a Theme [0:10/1:44]
[09:47] <eniac_petrov> congratulation!
[09:47] <eniac_petrov> :-)
[09:47] <fyre|work> eniac_petrov: please, turn that script off.
[09:47] <bilss_> ic56: l am not sure let tell what i have done so far and we can carry on from there give me a sec
[09:47] <interfear> Im trying to make 2 fat32 partitions of 80GB each with some unallocated space I have, what tool would you use to make/format them?
[09:47] <eniac_petrov> fyre|work ok, I am sorry
[09:47] <fyre|work> bilss_: you need to figure that out first, before anyone can try and help you.
[09:48] <fyre|work> interfear: gparted
[09:48] <Commander-Crowe> ITS DONE!!!!
[09:48] <confused> fyre|work: ive ran limewire on windows before and this looks like a clone of it and it was only a one network p2p (gnutella 1) not multi network like shareaza.. I may end up trying mldonkey but last time I checked it was bad of course there is one thats gift or something but uses other networks I didnt want ;) gnutella1, and two others I think
[09:48] <interfear> fyre|work: cool
[09:48] <interfear> hrm..
[09:49] <interfear> archive still down?
[09:49] <stiv2k> i STILL can't figure out why in linux, my wifi card seems considerably weaker than in windows, consequently me hardly being able to connect to my network..if it connects, only for a second before it drops...what gives???
[09:49] <interfear> seems like u.s. is
[09:49] <warlocky-> useradd -d /home/cs/warservers/ -M -n -r cs <- anyone know whats wrong?
[09:49] <fyre|work> confused: mldonkey is the backend, you need to get a decent front end gui to it. Many moons ago I had mldonkey running with all kinds of networks plugged into it.
[09:49] <Commander-Crowe> is there a GUI called GTK?
[09:49] <nathanj> is there fluxbox style pack in ubunut?
[09:50] <confused> fyre|work: yeah I was okay with one called sanches or something but the searching/downloading speed was way below what it should even for a multi networked p2p client
[09:50] <ic56> bilss_: I'm off. good night.
[09:50] <bilss_> ic56:i copied the crontab instructions to a file with crontab -l  > fiile in lex1, then i copied it over to admin sudo cp file /home/admin then i logged in as admin and typed crontab file and added the commands to admins cron job  now i think its a permissions thing
[09:51] <fyre|work> confused: honestly, I only do bittorrent now, everything else in the p2p space is just way too much junk :(
[09:51] <ic56> bills_: ok
[09:51] <stiv2k> goddammit
[09:51] <ic56> bilss_: ok
[09:51] <Commander-Crowe> !langugage
[09:51] <ubotu> I know nothing about langugage - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[09:51] <stiv2k> who knows wifi here
[09:51] <Commander-Crowe> !language
[09:51] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[09:51] <IRCMonkeyx> commctrl:  /home/ilker/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/ACDSee32/ACDSee32.exe this is the path. I wrote from alacarte. but still nothing happens
[09:52] <ic56> bilss_: let's get the vocabulary straight.  A job is a single line inside a crontab file
[09:52] <bilss_> ic56: yes
[09:52] <confused> fyre|work: thats why use want shareaza ;) it has an in built rating system to find the correct movie files and allows you to see the bitzie rating/comments for it as well.. of course the latest movies might hit bittorrent first and before that irc networks perhaps ;)
[09:52] <IRCMonkeyx> commctrl: what should i wirte in command line? should i write only path or any other things
[09:53] <ic56> bilss_: now, who owns the files in /etc/suck ? net1 or admin?
[09:53] <Commander-Crowe> bye all
[09:53] <Commander-Crowe> night time is here
[09:53] <confused> fyre|work: thanks for the help though <3
[09:53] <Commander-Crowe> sand man will fear
[09:53] <ic56> bilss_: net1-->lex1
[09:54] <interfear> I want to make a big parition to put music/video, should I make one 150gb partition or two 75's ?
[09:54] <stefg> Is there a recommended way of allowing ordinary users to use 'mount -o loop cd_image.iso /mnt'. Currently 'only root can do that', so a sudo prefix is required. I want to use this in a script, so the password-question is annoying.
[09:54] <davidjohnston> has anyone done a ubuntu server net install before
[09:54] <IRCMonkeyx> Could anyone help me? i cant make it working from launcher
[09:54] <bilss_> ic56  its lex1 at the moment if you look at the last post in the thread
[09:55] <dibblego> somewhere (on the wiki?) there is an example /etc/apt/sources.list file - anyone know where exactly?
[09:55] <bilss_> ic56: post 6 in the thread
[09:55] <philc> how do I select which version of automake should be run?
[09:55] <ic56> bilss_: ok, so change it: chown -r admin /etc/suck
[09:56] <cpk2> !easysource
[09:56] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[09:56] <cpk2> dibblego: use that link
[09:56] <dibblego> ta
[09:57] <bilss_> ic56: so all i need do  is chown -r admin /etc/suck  with sudo?
[09:57] <IRCMonkeyx> anybody hear me?? how can we call installed programs if it is not in menus?
[09:57] <ic56> bilss_: read the chown manpage.  You'll learn something.
[09:58] <bilss_> ic56; i will night
[09:58] <ic56> bilss_: night!
[09:58] <MTecknology> I need help with installing pcsx2 -> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18673
[09:59] <pepsi> IRCMonkeyx, run it in a terminal, or hit alt-f2, or make a menu entry for it
[10:00] <Corporal_Dirge> how do I get rid of totem? It's completely taken over my other media players.
[10:00] <IRCMonkeyx> pepsi : what should i write to command line ? when i enter a new menu entry. its path is  /home/ilker/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/ACDSee32/ACDSee32.exe
[10:01] <davidjohnston> has anyone ever installed ubuntu server
[10:01] <pepsi> IRCMonkeyx, wine <path to your file>
[10:02] <pepsi> so.. wine /home...../ACDSee32.exe or whatever
[10:02] <pepsi> i dunno
[10:02] <bilss_> ic56: oops -r is a invaild option
[10:02] <stiv2k> is there anyone here who knows a thing or two about wireless/madwifi and ubuntu
[10:02] <stiv2k> before i ask my question in vain again
[10:02] <JesseJ> is any of the ubuntu servers that synaptic use down?
[10:02] <pepsi> yes
[10:03] <pepsi> JesseJ, /topic ;)
[10:03] <IRCMonkeyx> pepsi: wine/home/ilker/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/ACDSee32/ACDSee32.exe  is this correct??
[10:03] <pepsi> IRCMonkeyx, i guess
[10:03] <JesseJ> thanks, just needed to rule out all other possibilities for why i can't install easyubuntu
[10:03] <pepsi> with a space after wine
[10:03] <IRCMonkeyx> thanx :)
[10:04] <interfear> I made two extended fat32 partitions and I would like to mount them in ubuntu, how do i go about doing that
[10:04] <tabman> i'm looking for a download manager which can start/resume my downloads
[10:05] <pepsi> tabman, wget ;)
[10:05] <bilss_> fyre|work: when i run chown -r admin /etc/suck   i get  chown: invalid option -- r
[10:05] <interfear> extended partitions can be mounted in linux and used for file storage yes?
[10:05] <JesseJ> i'm trying out ubuntu on my mac and if it looks like a good system to switch to then i will either build my own or have an ubuntu PC built for me
[10:05] <Rowan> has anyone else ever had problems with #1 Broadcom 802.11g Network Adapter not working?
[10:07] <tabman> pepsi: is it inside the package management or what ?
[10:07] <pepsi> tabman, its already installed... its a command line program
[10:07] <pepsi> man wget
[10:07] <stiv2k> man

[10:09] <Midknight> Does anyone know if the Broadband wireless card threw cingular works?
[10:09] <bilss_> fyre|work: when i run chown -r admin /etc/suck   i get  chown: invalid option -- r
[10:09] <cpk2> userundefine and fyre|work thanks
[10:10] <pepsi> tabman, wget -ct0 will continue a downloading, retrying an infinite number of times :)
[10:11] <fyre|work> bilss_: -R
[10:11] <tabman> pepsi: when I click on a download link inside firefox, I want it to popup, I don't know what you are telling
[10:11] <fyre|work> tabman: you want it to popup what?
[10:11] <bigfoot1> When I crop a digital picture, the cropped image has a bigger file size. Why? Weird.
[10:12] <fyre|work> tabman: the download window?
[10:12] <fyre|work> bigfoot1: are you saving it with the same compression settings?
[10:13] <bigfoot1> fyre|work: i'm using gThumb. 100% quality. 0% smoothing.
[10:13] <bigfoot1> fyre|work: and regardless whether I have Optimize or Progressive, cropped image is still larger.
[10:13] <trippp1> im having problems sharing a cable modems NET connection with another network interface.
[10:15] <stiv2k> what is the difference between madwifi and madwifi-ng?
[10:15] <rshd301> Anyone know where to get gcompizthemer ?

[10:16] <trippp1> _BASO_: what do you want to use it for?
[10:17] <shobbi> hey I just installed kubuntu dapper and I had some major problems, for one the installer failed to install grub so I did that and now I kdesu wont authenticate me as a sudo user
[10:17] <_BASO_> to sent files to my mobile phone
[10:18] <_BASO_> trippp1: or to download files from my mobile phone
[10:18] <tabman> pepsi: ?
[10:18] <pepsi> ?
[10:19] <fyre|work> rshd301: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xgl
[10:19] <tabman>  pepsi: when I click on a download link inside firefox, I want it to popup
[10:19] <rshd301> Thanks
[10:19] <pepsi> popup what?
[10:19] <shobbi> can someone help me get kdesu working? I can su in konsole and run apt-get mount  and other sudo programs but not in the gui
[10:19] <tabman> wget what else :)
[10:19] <pepsi> for what
[10:19] <interfear> I made these 2 fat32 partitions, and i configured them in the gnome disk manage tool, however they dont show up on my desktop nor on "mount", however i can read/write to the paritions?
[10:19] <interfear> i dont understand
[10:19] <tabman> wget should popup and ask to let it handle the download
[10:19] <interfear> i would like them to be shown as shortcuts on my desktop
[10:20] <pepsi> tabman, wget is a command line program
[10:20] <fyre|work> interfear: you need to mount them somewhere first for your system to use them.
[10:20] <tabman> i'm looking for something like DAP on linux
[10:20] <pepsi> what is DAP?
[10:20] <tabman> pesi: I just installed wget its not command line, I can see a GUI
[10:20] <dibblego> how would I mount my SATA HDD? I've just reinstalled a clean Dapper and I can't seem to find it (it was there before) - I thought it would be on /dev/sda1 or something but there is no /dev/sd*
[10:20] <tabman> pepsi: download accelerator plus
[10:21] <interfear> fyre|work: hrm if i can read/write to them doesnt that mean they are mounted? i have them setup as /mnt/d1 and /mnt/d2
[10:21] <fyre|work> interfear: run system > administration > disks -- I think you can mount stuff from there.
[10:21] <bilss_> fyre|work  after doing the command  chown  -R  admin   /etc/suck  the file in suck has changed to this -rw-r--r--  1 admin lex1  463 2006-07-22 08:55 sucknewsrc  how can it bechanged so that  it reads -rw-r-r--admin admin  463 2006-07-22
[10:21] <trippp1> _BASO_: kde or gnome?
[10:21] <interfear> fyre|work: yeh thats what i did, doesnt show up as mounted though
[10:21] <fyre|work> interfear: yes, then they are mounted if you are able to access them.
[10:21] <aqau_inter_fly> hi guys. I'm having a printing problem... i set up my printer fine, but when i go to print, my printer feeds the paper in, then sits there for about a minute then spits it out blank... has anyone had this problem before?
[10:21] <interfear> maybe because they are logical partitions they arent showing up under mount?
[10:21] <fyre|work> bilss_: chown -R admin:admin /etc/suck -- and please, read the manual.
[10:22] <_BASO_> trippp1: gnome (Xfce actually)
[10:22] <stiv2k> what is the difference between madwifi and madwifi-ng?
[10:22] <fyre|work> aqau_inter_fly: what kind of driver are you using for your printer?
[10:22] <fyre|work> interfear: no, that's not a reason.
[10:22] <interfear> hrm.
[10:22] <interfear> weird
[10:22] <aqau_inter_fly> fyre|work, it is the one that ubuntu suggested for my printer when i selected it from the list
[10:23] <fyre|work> aqau_inter_fly: try another driver, maybe your printer doesn't support the driver type.
[10:23] <trippp1> _BASO_: theres a package for KDE. for controlling. theres also a bluetooth one that works well
[10:23] <trippp1> _BASO_: but im no help. no idea.
[10:23] <fyre|work> aqau_inter_fly: also, lookup your printer at linuxprinting.org
[10:24] <aqau_inter_fly> fyre|work:  when i used my printer in MEPIS, it worked fine
[10:24] <frogzoo> aqau_inter_fly: is this a lexmark?
[10:24] <fyre|work> aqau_inter_fly: what has that got to do with anything?
[10:24] <aqau_inter_fly> fyre|work: i really don't konw
[10:25] <aqau_inter_fly> fyre|work: and no its not a lexmark its an hp
[10:25] <fyre|work> aqau_inter_fly: that's like saying, 'yeah it worked in windows fine' -- it doesn't matter. MEPIS != ubuntu just like Windows != ubuntu
[10:25] <aqau_inter_fly> fyre|work: its an old one
[10:25] <fyre|work> aqau_inter_fly: use a generic driver with it first, see if that works. Maybe the driver you are using is not well supported by your printer.
[10:25] <frogzoo> aqau_inter_fly: is this on dapper? serial or usb?
[10:26] <aqau_inter_fly> frogzoo: yes it is dapper and it is serial
[10:26] <frogzoo> aqau_inter_fly: when did you set the printer up? also, have you lately done a sudo apt-get upgrade ?
[10:27] <aqau_inter_fly> frogzoo: i just set it up a couple of minutes ago and yes i recently updated
[10:27] <aqau_inter_fly> frogzoo: i think 2 days ago i updated
[10:27] <frogzoo> aqau_inter_fly: which model hp?
[10:28] <aqau_inter_fly> frogzoo: OfficeJet 500
[10:29] <aqau_inter_fly> frogzoo: and i did change the driver and now this is what it does:  prints out one page that says only "5Y" at the top, then prints out onother page with the content im tryingto print.
[10:30] <aqau_inter_fly> frogzoo: but when its done printing it takes a while to spit it how (its done that with every distro of linux i've used and all i have to do it pull it out
[10:31] <aqau_inter_fly> )
[10:32] <aqau_inter_fly> i guess everyone left :-)
[10:32] <cpk2> whats the command to change a users password? using the groups and users gui doesnt seem to do anything
[10:33] <Jukru> cpk2: passwd
[10:33] <Rowan> fucking broadcom
[10:33] <Rowan> bull shit
[10:34] <trippp1> !dhcpd
[10:34] <ubotu> I know nothing about dhcpd - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[10:34] <trippp1> !gdhcp

[10:35] <livingdaylight> i need help with an annoyance. Watching dvd(orwhatever) the screensaver kicks in. How do i stop that?
[10:35] <frogzoo> aqau_inter_fly: so it's printing now? just with the extra page with the '5Y' ?
[10:36] <frogzoo> Rowan: language please
[10:36] <Madpilot> trippp1, stop spamming the bot - if you need help, ask...
[10:36] <aqau_inter_fly> frgzoo: actually its also cutting off the bottom of the document.
[10:36] <frogzoo> aqau_inter_fly: and which driver are you using?
[10:36] <trippp1> i cant keep two network cards up at the same time. without one fucking with the other... ones connecting to local LAN, the other to a cable modem WAN.
[10:36] <livingdaylight> hello?
[10:37] <livingdaylight> surely, this is a simple problem to solve?
[10:37] <trippp1> livingdaylight: turn off the screensaver
[10:37] <frogzoo> trippp1:  impressive as your use of anglo-celtic vulgarities is, it doesn't help resolve your problem :)
[10:38] <trippp1> frogzoo: thanks.
[10:38] <frogzoo> trippp1: can you post your /etc/network/interfaces
[10:38] <aqau_inter_fly> frogzoo: cdj550
[10:38] <livingdaylight> trippp1: just untick the 'activate screensaver' box?
[10:39] <frogzoo> aqau_inter_fly: is there no driver for the hp officejet 500?
[10:39] <aqau_inter_fly> frogzoo: umm there is hpijs which is the reccommended and suggested one
[10:40] <livingdaylight> trippp1: hello?
[10:40] <trippp1> livingdaylight: yes. in the screensaver settings
[10:40] <aqau_inter_fly> frogzoo: wait now that one is working...kinda
[10:40] <livingdaylight> trippp1: what happens if i switch it off?
[10:40] <livingdaylight> trippp1: what happens then if the system is idle?
[10:40] <trippp1> livingdaylight: dont leave you PC on.
[10:41] <frogzoo> aqau_inter_fly: delete the printer, & try again, selecting the hp officejet 500 printer & ignore the other suggestions
[10:41] <livingdaylight> trippp1: so, if i'm watching dvd, say, the system power wont go idle?
[10:41] <livingdaylight> trippp1: what do you mean don't leave your pc on?
[10:41] <aqau_inter_fly> frogzoo: thats what i did the first time and it used the hpjis
[10:41] <Samineru> n00b question: How does one run a php file?
[10:42] <Samineru> or could someone walk me thouegh installing ampach
[10:42] <frogzoo> trippp1: you gonna pastebin that file? or just #flood if you like
[10:42] <jbrimble> What can I use to sync my Windows PocketPC with Linux?
[10:42] <Samineru> *ampache
[10:42] <aqau_inter_fly> frogzoo:  and this is what happnens now with the hpijs, it still has the KY at the top, except its the same page as my content is on, and it still takes a while to spit out the paper, but it doesn't cut off the bottom
[10:42] <trippp1> frogzoo: my interfaces http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18674
[10:42] <aqau_inter_fly> frogzoo: 5Y*
[10:43] <frogzoo> aqau_inter_fly: there is an exact driver you should install - but you'll need to select it manually
[10:43] <livingdaylight> trippp1: man.....
[10:43] <aqau_inter_fly> frogzoo: how do i do this
[10:43] <trippp1> livingdaylight: screensaver to save screen if an image is on it for too long. if you turn it off your screen may burn. if it is LCD. no matter!
[10:44] <interfear> how many of you still have windows on your pc?
[10:44] <Samineru> I would if my cd drive worked
[10:44] <aqau_inter_fly> frogzoo: i deleted the printer and i am in the wizard for making a new one
[10:44] <pepsi> i run windows in vmware to run stuff for work
[10:44] <snoops> yep interfear.. still need it :)
[10:44] <interfear> I was thinking why i am still running windows, and i dont think i need it anymor
[10:44] <frogzoo> trippp1: eth0 eth1 cable/ethernet - which is which? (there's an obvious problem, eth0/eth1 have the same ip)
[10:44] <interfear> everything works in ubuntu, printer, net card, vid card..
[10:45] <interfear> i think i may be able to leave windows behind
[10:45] <frogzoo> aqau_inter_fly: driver -> hp -> officejet 500
[10:45] <aqau_inter_fly> frogzoo: where am i dooing this at
[10:46] <trippp1> frogzoo: i know. look what ifconfig returned http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18676
[10:46] <frogzoo> aqau_inter_fly: system -> admin -> printers     then 'add printer' - wizard pops up - add local - select driver -> hp -> officejet 500
[10:46] <interfear> If i get rid of windows entirely I think im gonna switch to 32bit ubuntu, not 64
[10:47] <livingdaylight> trippp1: what is annoying is when i'm using the pc and the screensaver comes on regardsless. If i'm watching a dvd the pc is being used, why does the system not recognise that i'm watching a dvd and not unleash the screensaver?
[10:47] <aqau_inter_fly> frogzoo: i think your wizard may be alittle different then mine
[10:48] <aqau_inter_fly> frogzoo: i have printer type: local or network and then i can choose a detected printer (hp officejet_series_500) or i can use another printer by specifying port
[10:48] <frogzoo> trippp1: those are different ip's from what's in interfaces, are you using a gui network manager?
[10:48] <trippp1> livingdaylight: system > preferences > screeensaver  un tick the box.
[10:48] <frogzoo> trippp1: also, take a look in /etc/iftab to make sure it looks sensible
[10:49] <livingdaylight> trippp1: i know how to do that. But it doesn't answer my question
[10:49] <frogzoo> aqau_inter_fly: choose manually select
[10:49] <aqau_inter_fly> then if i go forward it asks for a driver and when i go to hp> officejet500, the recommende driver is hpijs
[10:49] <speedy> how to convert 2e00.4106.5120 to 2e:00:41:06:51:20 format using sed/awk?
[10:49] <frogzoo> aqau_inter_fly: are there other drivers you can select? try the other ones available & see if it helps - preferably something listed as 500 specific
[10:50] <trippp1> livingdaylight: i hate the screensaver.. you cant pick the DIR it gets the slideshow from
[10:50] <aqau_inter_fly> frogzoo: yes, there are other drivers but i already tried them and none of them are 500 specific
[10:50] <livingdaylight> trippp1: i inderstand. How is power managed if i untick screensaver?
[10:51] <livingdaylight> trippp1: will the pc just switch off whilst in the middle of watching a dvd, or movie clip?
[10:51] <frogzoo> aqau_inter_fly: you could try downloading a driver from linuxprinting.org & see if that works better
[10:51] <fyre|work> livingdaylight: depends on the program you use to watch dvds.
[10:51] <livingdaylight> trippp1: do you understand the question?
[10:51] <fyre|work> livingdaylight: some will stop the screensaver.
[10:52] <fyre|work> livingdaylight: if I use the default 'media player' it will block the screen saver -- but mplayer doesn't (have to fiddle with the settings I think) neither does vlc player.
[10:52] <livingdaylight> fyre|work well, yesterday i was using mplayer. today i was watching clips on youtube.com
[10:52] <aqau_inter_fly> frogzoo: okay, i'll try that tommarow, thanks a lot for trying to hlep
[10:53] <livingdaylight> fyre|work: right...but for the file i watched yesterday, i had to use mplayer and it was annoying to have to move the mouse every time the screensaver came on
[10:53] <livingdaylight> fyre|work: same with youtube.com
[10:53] <pepsi> how fast does your screensaver kick in?!
[10:54] <Awesome-o2000> livingdaylight, -stop-xscreensaver
[10:54] <livingdaylight> Awesome-o2000: is that command?
[10:54] <Awesome-o2000> no rtfm
[10:54] <livingdaylight> ?
[10:55] <livingdaylight> fyre|work: i should be able to use any application without having screensaver interfere
[10:55] <frogzoo> Awesome-o2000: man rtfm
[10:55] <frogzoo> No manual entry for rtfm
[10:56] <CyDrive> Does anyone here now a good c++ compiler and debugger with an IDE

[11:25] <larryone> has anyone here had trouble getting the dapper installer to see SATA drives on a system?
[11:25] <dade_> dingus9,   http://desrt.mcmaster.ca/macbook.xhtml i did the same told here for get sleep work -- that is almost nothing but adding an "exit 0" to laptop-detect
[11:26] <sam__> thanks
[11:26] <dingus9> dade_: what exaclty is the issue than? you want something more specific
[11:26] <dingus9> ?
[11:27] <dade_> desrt say it works, but my laptop freeze just after stoppinc cpu and "Stopping tasks  [11:27] <larryone> the installer cant find a volume to install to..... gnome parted cant find devices either, they're not even being listed in /dev..... but the drive does work, and will boot the win2k install that's on it
[11:27] <sophie_marshall> why is my WINDOWS XP UNDER VMWARE internet so slow?
[11:27] <dade_> dingus9, i don't know what to do.
[11:28] <nurey> ok i fixed my libgtk2.0-dev problem... the mirrors i was using were messed up... i just changed to another mirror
[11:28] <dade_> dingus9, if you have a macbook too, that sleeps, we can compare some things
[11:29] <dingus9> ok just a sec
[11:29] <interfear> U.S. Archives still down?
[11:29] <larryone> is there anywhere that I can ask about installation problems?
[11:29] <interfear> larryone: shoot
[11:29] <larryone> the installer cant find a volume to install to..... gnome parted cant find devices either, they're not even being listed in /dev..... but the drive does work, and will boot the win2k install that's on it
[11:30] <dingus9> dade_: let me see here you have a lid.sh? int etc/acpi?
[11:30] <interfear> so its not even seeing your hard drive?
[11:30] <larryone> interfear, that's right
[11:30] <larryone> SATA disk
[11:30] <dade_> dingus9, yes
[11:30] <mdious> dade>what do you think of the macbook...I really wanted an iBook but it looks like the macbook is the 'replacement' for it....
[11:30] <erikgz> is us.archive.ubuntu.com down..?
[11:30] <interfear> larryone: hrm, i have a sata drive as well and havent had any problems
[11:30] <interfear> erikgz: yes
[11:30] <dade_> mdious, i think you should try one
[11:30] <larryone> I wasnt expecting any problems
[11:31] <larryone> it's really odd, it's not listing anywhere
[11:31] <interfear> larryone: thats weird.. so when u get to the partitioning stage of the install? the fields are blank? does it see your win2k partition?
[11:31] <dingus9> dade_: can you use acpitool -s and make it suspend to ram?
[11:31] <erikgz> interfear: thanks.  any word on back-up date?
[11:31] <mdious> dade>I grew up on macs...in fact I would not be in computers if i had to start on pc's...I really wanted to get back into the whole mac scene before it all went intel but it looks like i'm almost too late hehe
[11:31] <larryone> it hangs when it gets to the partitioning stage
[11:31] <dade_> dingus9, i'll go offline :P
[11:31] <interfear> erikgz: no idea i just came in here asking the same question you just did
[11:32] <larryone> so I opened gnome parted
[11:32] <dade_> dingus9, isn't that the same of sudo /etc/acpi/sleep.sh ??
[11:32] <larryone> and it couldnt find devices either
[11:32] <dade_> or sudo echo -n mem /sys/power/state
[11:32] <larryone> then found that they werent listed under /dev or /dev/disk or anywhere
[11:32] <interfear> larryone: hrm.. so there isnt any /dev/sda* devices...
[11:32] <erikgz> interfear: oye
[11:33] <dade_> dingus9, if yes it will crash.
[11:33] <larryone> none at all.... the only disk device the os can find is the cdrom drive
[11:33] <interfear> larryone: honestly larry im not sure, maybe someone here more experianced can help you out with this one..
[11:33] <larryone> yea
[11:33] <interfear> larryone: did you try to mount the drive yourself?
[11:33] <dingus9> ok here is the thing I just want to see if you acpi functionality is really there
[11:33] <larryone> I cant mount a raw device that's not listed in /dev
[11:34] <dade_> dingus9, so, i try that thing, bbl
[11:34] <dingus9> dade_: acpitool usually works.
[11:34] <mdious> dade>sorry to keep pestering...have you had any problems with white marks on your macbook keyboard?
[11:34] <interfear> hrm..
[11:34] <interfear> not sure
[11:34] <larryone> if it's not there, then usually it might suggest it's not plugged in
[11:34] <interfear> can u mount the raw device, and then format it ext2 with gnome-parted?
[11:34] <larryone> but it works fine, bots the windoze
[11:34] <interfear> or ext3 w/e

[11:37] <illusina> Has anyone gotten video acceleration with dual monitors working, or is it impossible?
[11:38] <dingus9> illusina: what is your grafix card?
[11:38] <dade`> dingus9, just back
[11:38] <dade`> it crashed
[11:38] <illusina> dingus9: ati x800
[11:38] <dingus9> what happened dade`
[11:38] <dade`> after saying "Stopping tasks: [11:39] <dade`> and then nothing
[11:39] <dade`> everithing was on but not responding
[11:39] <dingus9> illusina: it should be possible I have only seen it personally on a nvidia but I hav heard it works on ati too
[11:40] <illusina> dingus9: I've searched for hours on forums for a technique -- but only found people who suggested it couldn't be done -- do you have any articles perchance?
[11:40] <insidius> Hi all
[11:40] <dade`> dingus9, Linux Silicio 2.6.15-26-686 #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Jul 17 20:14:14 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux
[11:40] <dade`>  | yours ?
[11:40] <dingus9> dade`: did you look to see what the acpitool said to use for sleep by chance you may need to pass something else
[11:41] <insidius> I am troubleshooting something for someone and they dont have apt on there system from the command line. Any ideas?
[11:41] <dade`> dingus9, i read the man, there is noting interesting
[11:42] <dingus9> dade`: it would seem that you are dealing with some efi stuff
[11:42] <erikgz> when will us.archive.ubuntu.com be back up?
[11:42] <dade`> efi ?
[11:42] <dade`> hmm
[11:42] <dingus9> dade`: the extend firmware
[11:43] <dade`> i used bootcamp to partition the harddrive, then i used refit as primary bootloader
[11:43] <dade`> and lilo as second
[11:44] <dade`> dingus9, http://bin-false.org/?p=17 <- i installed this way
[11:44] <dingus9> dade`: you may need to see if you can enable acpi compatibility in the mac firmware. I have heard that when using refit as the bootloader you can run into some compatability issues
[11:44] <Down_II> hi does anyone know about installing ubuntu onto an external usb drive this way I could keep windows on the internal drive untouched
[11:45] <insidius> So does anyone have any ideas why my freind keeps being told that apt-get is an unknown command
[11:45] <dade`> dingus9, i'm looking, do you have an url ?
[11:47] <dingus9> dade`: what I heard is that in order to get some of the compatibility stuff working right you need to boot using bootcamp to the second partition where you install grub, then use grub to load your windows and linux kernels.
[11:49] <dingus9> dade`: the boot camp soposedly enables some legacy compatiblity graphics and other hardware stuff so that older non efi os's can use the hardwar properly
[11:49] <speedy> whats the name of the c language manual pages package?
[11:49] <dade`> dingus9, sounds like lot of troubles. so i don't have to use refit, and why grub if i have lilo ?
[11:50] <insidius> ok then. Does ubuntu include apt by default? Considering its based on debian I assume so
[11:50] <dingus9> dade`: you could use lilo too but grub is realy easy to install and configure, and you don't have to reinstall lilo every time you update you linux kernel! grub uses the menu.lst
[11:51] <frogzoo> insidius: if your friend doesn't have apt-get, i doubt they're running an ubuntu distro
[11:51] <Oni-Dracula> mking studios emailed me!
[11:51] <Oni-Dracula> raptor: call of the shadows port in 7 days
[11:51] <dade`> just 'cause i have lilo now, but what i remember is that bootcamp was not able to boot my linux partition hmm
[11:52] <Oni-Dracula> guess no one here remembers raptor
[11:52] <dingus9> dade`: from what I understand the bootcamp basicly hides the efi stuff from the operatingsystems it initializes. for example windows, since it can't handle the efi stuff yet, linux does ok on efi but its not quite there yet
[11:52] <insidius> frogzoo: Thats what I cant figure out he is using ubuntu. I use debian myself and im trying to give him a hand. He does not have apt and the system did not even put him in the sudoers file by default like i assume it should
[11:53] <dingus9> can somone do a repository check for me for http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ im not able to download from it. but I can ping it
[11:53] <insidius> Sorry I am not 100% familar with ubuntu or how it does things
[11:54] <DarkMageZ> insidius, the first user created on the system should be in the sudo'ers
[11:55] <DarkMageZ> insidius, it should also have apt, which is part of ubuntu-minimal
[11:55] <Lynoure> insidius: He believes it to be ubuntu? How did he get it?
[11:55] <frogzoo> insidius: ubuntu uses debian's apt - the binaries are different, but the setup is the same, I believe
[11:55] <insidius> I know. I cant figure it out. This is really wierd
[11:56] <NeoNmaN> !mount
[11:56] <frogzoo> insidius: did the install run to completion? does he actually have a usable box?
[11:56] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted  -  Formatting partitions: see the manual page for mkfs ("man mkfs")  -  Mounting partitions in Gnome: System -> Administration -> Disks
[11:56] <insidius> I am beggining to think he does not have a fully installed box
[11:56] <frogzoo> insidius: only real possibility
[11:56] <insidius> Hmm get got it from the iinet ftp. (Its a aussie ISP FTP)
[11:57] <NeoNmaN> i need help to mount one iso file... i can't remember howto :(
[11:57] <dade`> ok i'm gonna try, tnx bye
[11:57] <Lynoure> insidius: another possibility is that he installed something else, labeled as a prank or as malicious trick as Ubuntu
[11:58] <insidius> Hmm I am asking him know because this is confusing the hell out of me
[11:58] <Namingishard> Hey, Room ^^
[11:58] <frogzoo> insidius: ask for output from 'lsb_release -a'
[11:58] <dingus9> insidius: I am having simelar problems right now installing kubuntu dapper. its hanging on the repository checks and when I reboot into my "new system" I am missing a bunch of tools
[11:59] <insidius> Hmm that could be it
[11:59] <frogzoo> I'm wondering if it's related to the us repos being down - not allowing security updates...
[11:59] <insidius> To think this all started from me telling him to apt-get screen heh
[12:00] <Spy_> is there sum1 here that can help me with lamp?
[12:00] <frogzoo> Spy_: not if you keep us guessing what the problem is :)
[12:00] <Spy_> hehe i knew i had it coming
[12:00] <frogzoo> heh
[12:00] <ubuntu_> when are the servers coming back up?
[12:00] <dingus9> ah frogzoo no wonder Its doing this. grrr hey if I chose my local in say europe will it use the non us repos?
[12:01] <Spy_> Okay, well apache works because but when ever i try and browse a *.php file it asks me if i want to download it
[12:01] <frogzoo> dingus9: yep, but your locale will be screwed :(
[12:01] <Spy_> Now on this page https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP it does say you need to enable php4
[12:01] <frogzoo> dingus9: maybe canada?
[12:01] <Spy_> but i tried that and the problem presists.. it says the php4 module is already enabled
[12:02] <NeoNmaN> Spy_, i hav a bash script if you wont to crate a Apache2, Mysql5 and PHP5 test server :)
[12:02] <Spy_> okay neo post on a pm
[12:02] <dingus9> oh yah. frogzoo can't I change my local later?
[12:02] <frogzoo> dingus9: of course
[12:02] <Spy_> hey so any1 know of any new cool games coming out?
[12:03] <ubuntu_> so is there like maintenance going on to the servers or something?
[12:03] <dingus9> frogzoo: I think that is a small flaw in the dapper install. Instead of just moving on and fixing the problem by switching mirriors it crashes and leaves you high and dry
[12:03] <frogzoo> ubuntu_: topic just says down, doesn't elaborate
[12:03] <Flannel> ubuntu_: no, but sometimes mirrors go down, looks like ca. and us. are down.  You can remove the us. from your sources.list, and it'll work just fine.
[12:04] <frogzoo> dingus9: it's kind of wierd - what if you're installing without a net connection? would it just crash? ...
[12:04] <Flannel> frogzoo: no, it uses the stuff on the CD
[12:04] <dingus9> I tried by ifdown before I installed a second time and yes it still crashed
[12:05] <frogzoo> dingus9: maybe try installing but don't configure the networking... maybe?
[12:05] <ubuntu_> yeh i was trying to install ubuntu just now but the install halts when it starts to configure apt since its trying to connect to the U.S. servers
[12:06] <frogzoo> ubuntu_: I'm guessing it should work if you install but don't configure networking
[12:06] <dingus9> this time it told me that it couldn't find the servers blah blah blah and then gave a buch of errors. must have to
[12:06] <ubuntu_> yeh.. hrm.. i guess ill just try later
[12:06] <interfear> dam livecd irssi
[12:07] <Bakemono> hi
[12:07] <interfear> Is there an officla ubuntu websites that gives the status of the servers?
[12:07] <dingus9> hmm this is strange its not letting me ifdown eth0
[12:08] <insidius> screw it. i am getting the guy to format and im gonna help him install debian. He is missing to many things.
[12:08] <dingus9> that must have been my problem
[12:10] <dingus9> oh my word what the heck now loop back is not configured sheesh
[12:10] <dingus9> lol this is funny
[12:10] <Android> I have installed ubuntu but xserver is unable to start (says something about not being configured i think), what should i try to fix it?
[12:11] <dingus9> Android: are you trying to install dapper? or breezy?
[12:12] <Android> dapper i think, the latest version
[12:14] <dingus9> Android: if you have too much trouble with dapper I would recomend installing breezy first and doing a dist upgrade to dapper. http://ubuntuguide.org and look at the upgrade section
[12:14] <loop1> any freevo users?
[12:15] <Android> is there a way i can try to configure X server first?
[12:15] <dingus9> I had to do that on a dell about two weeks ago, it wouldn't load into the gui at all but once installed breezy then the upgrade went nicely
[12:15] <loop1> !fixres Android
[12:15] <ubotu> I know nothing about fixres Android - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[12:15] <loop1> !fixres > Android
[12:15] <dingus9> Android: I think so
[12:16] <Android> fixres?
[12:16] <Android> I know with gparted i had to change drivers to get it working
[12:16] <dingus9> Android: when you first boot up there is an option I think it was f6 but can't remember, to change the boot perams
[12:16] <HazemMohamed> Does any one know how to get my smart link modemd working?
[12:17] <humanpersonman> HazemMohamed, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto
[12:17] <dingus9> Android: to get your harddrive working?
[12:18] <Android> i can boot into ubuntu/ubuntu safe mode fine
[12:18] <Android> just i cant get xserver to work once i do
[12:18] <dingus9> Android: oh
[12:19] <dingus9> Android: what card?
[12:19] <HazemMohamed> humanpersonman:thank you very much
[12:19] <No1Viking> Followed the instructions in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI and got http://pastebin.ca/97038. Any ideas?
[12:20] <cmug> Bah, that Graphical Installer is a POS
[12:20] <humanpersonman> Android, when you get the command prompt try doing this sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:20] <cmug> The partitioner doesnt see the swap partition I create no matter what
[12:20] <dingus9> Android: what graphics card do you have?
[12:20] <dingus9> cmug: how much ram do you have?
[12:21] <darkowl> Hello
[12:21] <cmug> dingus9, 1GB
[12:21] <trippp1> i need some help with setting up a DHCP server for my local LAN to acess the WAN.
[12:21] <ron_o2> on my live cd of ubuntu my cd keeps opening and closing repeatedly. How do I stop it?
[12:21] <cmug> I am trying to preserve one NTFS partition
[12:21] <Android> and ATI X800XL
[12:21] <dingus9> cmug: ok is this the install partitioner?
[12:21] <darkowl> How can I configure my mouse to work in framebuffer ?
[12:22] <ron_o2> my cdrw...*
[12:22] <cmug> dingus9, yes, gparted or whatever it uses
[12:22] <ron_o2> I have a compaq presario..
[12:22] <cmug> I have a shipit install disc
[12:22] <humanpersonman> cmug, it is almost as if you need to trick the partitioner into what you want it to do. Very similar to using a mac
[12:22] <dingus9> Android: ok did you change the driver in your xorg config to the correct ati driver?
[12:22] <cmug> humanpersonman, i want it to work, i dont want to trick it
[12:22] <humanpersonman> cmug, i hate that graphical install, textual is flawless
[12:22] <cmug> and I dont know how to trick it
[12:22] <Android> um
[12:22] <darkowl> How can I configure my mouse to work in framebuffer ?
[12:22] <cmug> humanpersonman, i have always used the text install before
[12:23] <No1Viking> Followed the instructions in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI and got http://pastebin.ca/97038. Any ideas?
[12:23] <trippp1> anyone know about DHCP servers?
[12:23] <cmug> but the GUI must be working aswell if you want users
[12:23] <Android> i havent actually run the config properly since i installed
[12:23] <humanpersonman> cmug, apparently textual install was too foreboding for new users, so they go with this
[12:23] <dingus9> cmug: if it will let you move on just ignore the swap partition for now and you can add it to your inittab file later!
[12:24] <cmug> dingus9, it does, but it complains about the missing swap partition
[12:24] <Steven_> have any of you ever used gtk-gnutella?
[12:24] <cmug> but it does offer a continue
[12:24] <cmug> so ill try that
[12:24] <humanpersonman> darkowl, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:24] <dingus9> cmug: but can you install any ways?
[12:24] <humanpersonman> darkowl, keep accepting the default until you get to the mouse options
[12:25] <cmug> dingus9, i am booting the installer again, ill try
[12:25] <humanpersonman> Steven_, I go with frostwire myself
[12:26] <dingus9> cmug: it will run just fine without a swap with a gig of ram. then just put your 2gig swap into your fstab file after install
[12:26] <cmug> dingus9, yes
[12:26] <Android> i had to use the textual install as i was unable to run xserver
[12:27] <dingus9> Android: are you on your live cd now or an installed system?
[12:27] <Android> installed
[12:27] <dingus9> Android: oh good
[12:27] <Android> ?
[12:27] <humanpersonman> 2 gig swap seems like a waste.
[12:27] <Android> i said that earlier
[12:27] <humanpersonman> I can't imagine ever needing that
[12:27] <Hexidigital_> argh... i assume US repos are still down?
[12:28] <phipu> hi
[12:28] <Steven_> humanpersonman: what network does frostwire connect to?
[12:28] <humanpersonman> gnutella
[12:29] <humanpersonman> Steven_, I very rarely use gnutella, bittorrent guy myself, but the few times I have used it frostwire worked really well.
[12:29] <Steven_> humanpersonman:  Does it use gtk2?
[12:29] <cmug> blah, now the program sees the swap aswell
[12:30] <cmug> Ha, pos!
[12:30] <dingus9> cmug: lol
[12:30] <phipu> I have 2 users on my ubuntu 6.06. When I try to set-up an autologin I can chose only one of them for that. Anyone has an idea how I can fix that?
[12:31] <VoteForPedro> i installed ubuntu 5.10, but something is wrong with gnome - it is locking randomly, and i haven't even been able to get past the logins screen ... i rebooted into recovery mode and im at the command prompt (bash is it) how do i make sure gnome is up to date?
[12:31] <dingus9> Android: what driver is it using in you xorg.conf ?
[12:32] <Cynical> ask it
[12:32] <humanpersonman> Steven_, not sure, it is a java app if that helps
[12:32] <Dewbie> btw wtf is pedro
[12:32] <Dewbie> and why vote for him/her
[12:33] <humanpersonman> Steven_, it certainly is not qt or KDE related at all. I think it is pretty DE neutral
[12:33] <dingus9> Pedro offers you his protectection
[12:33] <VoteForPedro> :)
[12:33] <dingus9> Dewbie: you noob napoleon dynamite
[12:33] <humanpersonman> Dewbie must not be in america
[12:33] <Frizz0> hey
[12:33] <_atomic> Hello
[12:33] <McNutella> can ubuntu use flash 8 or 9 yet ?
[12:34] <Dewbie> lmao
[12:34] <Dewbie> omg
[12:34] <Steven_> humanpersonman:  ok cool :)
[12:34] <humanpersonman> McNutella, no
[12:34] <Dewbie> ive not seen shuch shite as napolean dynamite
[12:34] <dingus9> McNutella: only if macromedia makes a linux bin for 8 and 9
[12:34] <Dewbie> nor willI ever
[12:34] <humanpersonman> McNutella, they are supposedly working on flash 9 for linux, we'll see I am a bit skeptic
[12:34] <Dewbie> american or not
[12:34] <DarkMageZ> VoteForPedro, "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade"
[12:34] <McNutella> thank you
[12:34] <McNutella> and napoleon dynamite is cool.. *chokes*
[12:34] <VoteForPedro> DarkMageZ, thank you :)
[12:35] <dingus9> humanpersonman: me too skeptec that is
[12:35] <Dewbie> in my line of work I see those shirts all the time, most times I want to grab them and beat the urge to vote for pedro out of them...
[12:35] <humanpersonman> they will start, run into a problem and say. We'll have kick ass flash 10 for linux
[12:36] <VoteForPedro> DarkMageZ, is there a reference somewhere so i can check for this kind of stuff on my own?
[12:36] <dingus9> omg: its trying to scan the friggen mirrior again and the lan isn't configured
[12:36] <Steven_> humanpersonman: thanks for the info :)
[12:36] <humanpersonman> !wiki
[12:36] <ubotu> wiki is http://wiki.ubuntu.com - Loads of user-contributed documentation
[12:37] <dingus9> ooohhh lol the install keeps auto configing my ethernet I guess I will have to unplug
[12:37] <britishseapower> what can i use to clean thermal paste off my CPU ?
[12:38] <humanpersonman> britishseapower, I see why you came to #ubuntu
[12:38] <marcin_ant> hi guys
[12:38] <zsuzsi> hi
[12:38] <humanpersonman> maybe ubotu knows
[12:38] <humanpersonman> !clean thermal pase off my cpu
[12:38] <ubotu> I know nothing about clean thermal pase off my cpu - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[12:38] <DarkMageZ> VoteForPedro, there is a changelog to see what has changed in the gnome packages. but i'm not sure where to find the ones for such an old version of ubuntu
[12:38] <marcin_ant> I'm looking for good software that could allow me to create catalogue of my dvd's (with data files)
[12:38] <Hexidigital_> britishseapower::  rubbing alcohol
[12:38] <zsuzsi> i have a problem with wlanassistant under kubuntu... it crashed and says it s a bug. am i in the right place to talk about it?
[12:38] <marcin_ant> can someone suggest such software?
[12:38] <DarkMageZ> VoteForPedro, second, it might not be gnome that is locking up, but something else which hopefully will get updated and fixed
[12:38] <dingus9> Dewbie: you wouldn't happen to be a hitman would you :)
[12:39] <Lynoure> humanpersonman: hardly a ubuntu problem. google for it instead? (it's paste not pase)
[12:39] <humanpersonman> oh that is why ubotu didnt know
